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.

Too Big To Be Successful

Gateway Pundit has more details involving what should be a real bonafide scandal.
That would be, that Big @#$% Deal where Obamacare details were kept from public consumption until after it was voted on.

Gee, I think I said something like that myself, say – around March 30.

Jim Hoft is onto something here, I’m quite sure.

Trust. Hard to Come By. Too Easy to Lose.

Remember the Anthrax case? Involving a person of interest, Steven Hatfill?
Here’s a recent and interesting article by Radley Balko on him.

And NYT tells us that the case against Mr. Hatfill is disputed by a colleague.

“I’m from the government, I’m here to help you.” Yea? Sure about that?
No longer a joke, now is it?

A Dull Needle

Healthcare.

Yeah, Congress isn’t quite done with it. Now they want to regulate those insurance premiums. And just when you thought 2,700+ pages was enough.

Oh, the humanity. Wherefore art thou?

(Give you a hint. It certainly is NOT in Congress.)

Dishonest Discourse

For this coming week, if you are attending any Tea Party – get ready for these impostors that intend to make you look bad.

And just to add to the confusion – or enlightenment, check out TigerHawk’s possibilities concerning it.

[UPDATE]More on the person(s) behind the “crashtheteaparty” site.

Tame Deficit By Raising Taxes

That is according to Paul Volker.
“If at the end of the day we need to raise taxes, we should raise taxes,” he said.

Really, Paul?

Here’s my question. Not to JUST you, but to Congress AND the Administration.
Remember the transparency promised concerning earmarks?
How about it? Don’t you agree that has to be curtailed? Minimized? Scrutinized for real worth? Denied in some or most cases? Just how much of a percentage of everything Congress spends is just earmarks? (Okay, that is a lot of questions. TRY ANSWERING THEM FOR ONCE.)

You seem to want to raise taxes just for taxes sake, Paul.

We do NOT need that, We do NOT WANT that.

We NEED you to STOP THE IRRESPONSIBLE AND EXCESSIVE SPENDING FIRST!!
Second, we need you to reduce the overblown budget.

Latest NLRB Appointee

Won’t punish employers that hire illegal aliens.

Kinda gets you right here, doesn’t it? What a surprise.

We need more accountability. We need more law officers (Sheriffs, etc.) becoming partners of the 287G Federal Program (ICE ACCESS), such as ours in Fredrick County in Maryland. Why isn’t that the Law of the Land, by the way?

UPDATE: Leading Indicators of Economic Disaster?

Large Corporations seem to already know what they have to do to remain solvent. Unfortunately, employees are not going to like it.

Not to mention the records-breaking national deficit.

Just remember those two words “deficit neutral.” Know what means? That both spending and savings would NOT CHANGE the deficit in any direction (up or down). Well, that can’t be happening now can it? Especially when the budget will force the US debt to soar to 90% of the GDP.

UPDATE: The radicals in Congress were not pleased that these corporations would go public with this devastating information. In response, democrats threatened to call for Congressional show trials to publicly humiliate these corporations.

UPDATE: Benishek For Congress

UPDATE: The reason to replace Stupak with his opponent named below. Pork, earmarks, the deal he made along with others for financial favors to his district.

Doctor Daniel Benishek is running to oust Representative Stupak.

And here is a brief Washington Examiner article on this new phenomenon.

Dr. Benishek’s Facebook doesn’t yet have a pay button but his snail mail address is listed:

Benishek For Congress
802 Pentoga Trail
Crystal Falls, MI 49920

On To DC

Here is a quick message from a friend’s email to me.


Friends:

Congress is staying in Washington this weekend, in hopes of voting on the healthcare bill Sunday. [Ed:(Notice I am not calling it a “vote.”)]

Can you join us Saturday at noon for a rally at the Capitol?
It’s in Upper Senate Park, on the north side of the Capitol building.
