First They Took Away Your …

Remember when incumbents were identified on your election ballots? When was the last time you saw that?

And now, Mayor Bloomberg (I-NYC), wants party affiliation taken off the ballots, too.

You know what this means, don’t you? They are counting on any voter not paying attention. They are counting on the idea you are way too busy to notice this change. They are counting on your level of intelligence. Meaning, they don’t think much of you because they don’t think you can think for yourself.

Is that any way to run a railroad?

Four Years With Gov. Christie

At the very least.

Fantastic. Watch this video of him responding to a reporter’s question.

New Global Taxes?

United Nation’s WHO (World Health Organization) is moving forward to impose global consumer taxes on everyone using the internet, financial transaction tax and an airline tax – all geared to raise 10’s of billions of dollars.

But they won’t curtail their financial spending problems.

Sound familiar?

Gaming The Numbers $115B More

CBO says ObamaCare will cost $115 billion more than thought.

Don’t act so surprised. We already knew, but now the veil has been removed – by how much is showing with just this latest estimation from the CBO.

Again I ask, where is the “Do No Harm”? To the country, to the future generations, to us?

Losing Record Amounts of Money

Fannie ($11.5B) and Freddie ($8B loss). Remember them? That’s how much they lost in the first quarter.

Apparently, they can’t seem to make money anymore. Why are they still operating?

And by the way, where’s Barney Frank in this episode?

Like Tim Cavanaugh of Reason.com says – We can’t go on like this. Infuriating.

How To Get Media Covering Your Campaign

Conservative Ari David talks about his first SEIU meeting as a Republican candidate for Congress, after hearing that his opponent Rep. Henry Waxman was going to be there.

Then, one of Ari’s associates suggested that they start off their SEIU meeting with the Pledge of Allegiance.

Watch the video for more interesting pieces of info in the last minute and a half.

When Does It Stop?

The bailouts, that is.

WASHINGTON – Freddie Mac is asking for $10.6 billion in additional federal aid after posting a big loss in the first three months of the year. It’s another sign that the taxpayer bill for stabilizing the housing market will keep mounting.

So, when are we going to get an audit, an accounting of the business practices of Freddy Mac, Fannie Mae and the FED?

This is insane.

Murtha Charitable to the Last

And the Dems couldn’t be happy about that, considering the bulk of Congressman’s campaign funds are no longer available to them.

Wow.

Speaker of the House Shouldn’t

Speak.

Trouble is, she did – and it is a doozy.

She held a news conference last week, during it she said the Bush administration kept secret that there would be a financial crisis in a matter of weeks.

But what she failed to say was that President Bush warned the Democratic Congress 17 times in 2008 alone about the systemic consequences of financial turmoil at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. President Bush also put forward thoughtful plans to reduce the risk that either Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac would encounter such difficulties.

Truth, Speaker. Tell the Truth. For once.

UPDATEx3: May Day With Uncivil Riots

I guess that “civil disobedience” was a bit too much to ask, right?

And, why is it that those who destroy property wear masks, and run away?

And the response from the main stream media? (chirping crickets …)

Yet, the POTUS is not the history buff he tells us that he is. Particularly since Byron York tells us:

Some people might not know that since the 1940s, federal law has required non-citizens who are in the United States permanently to carry on their person, at all times, the official documents proving that they are here legally — green card, work visa, etc. That has been the law for 70 years, and the new Arizona law does not change it.

UPDATE: More violence from the pro-illegal immigration protesters.

UPDATEx2: And Michelle Malkin has more.

UPDATEx3: Good Lord. Talk about turnabout. Subversion of Immigration Laws by a Governor no less.
