Give Back The Money

GE was awarded 44 contracts totaling over $46,000,000 and 44 grants totaling more than $79,000,000 from the Obama-Pelosi $757 billion dollar stimulus package.

Today GE announced that it was going to gut its offshore wind-power plans.

Is this why GE CEO Jeffrey Immelt was hired by the POTUS, to create jobs and take them away???

I don’t think so, but it sure looks that way now doesn’t it?

In August there were 0 jobs made, or gained, or uh, nothing changed since July on the jobs front. What’s going to happen now, Wall Street? Particularly since this news comes on a weekend?

Who Are The Workers?

No, really. According to Hoffa, at the Labor Day rally, it’s the union members. He says they are going to “get those SOBs.”

Well, guess what? I work for a living, too. And I’d bet good money conservatives do, too. Whether we are union members or not, is irrelevant.

A call to arms? Take who out?

It’s time to ask yourself, what version of America do you love and want for your children and theirs … and what are you prepared to do towards that end?

The Tea Party is not the enemy. Conservatism is not the enemy.

So who, exactly, is the enemy? One mnajor clue.

They lie to us.

More to the point, not all of us recognize that for what it is.

They want to control us.

I thought most of us love our independence, control of our lives, our choice in our futures/jobs/faith/love. Am I wrong? I don’t believe so. And neither does Rush Limbaugh.

New Deepwater Oil Reserves

In the Gulf. Question is, when oil is being extracted, will it be ours – or sold to some other country? And, how many resuscitated jobs will be developed?
So far, no answers to those questions yet. But the fascinating thing here is – this discovery was made as a result of recent work on an existing well that was halted over one year ago.

Imagine what our economy, jobs picture and fuel prices could have been – had it not been halted by this administration?

Read the whole thing at Hot Air’s article.

Ethical Oil

Yeah, drill, baby, drill. Here, in the U.S. of A.

EXXON Fighting Oil Killers

Here. In the Gulf of Mexico. Our own regulators killed EXXON’s attempt to drill in the largest oil field of over a billion gallons discovered in 2007.
h/t Hot Air.

Per Investors Business Daily:

The Exxon discovery is the biggest in a decade. If put into operation, its billion barrels will be enough to make a dent in America’s oil dependency on foreign tyrants. If that isn’t a sufficient national security reason, what is?

Not to mention our thousands of jobs lost in the Gulf Coast area and beyond, revenues to the government funds lost, economic devastation, more funds lost to overseas oil companies, our oil rigs lost to other countries, etc., etc. etc.

Now what was that quote by candidate Barak Obama? Oh, yeah:
“Under my plan, electrical energy costs would necessarily skyrocket.”

Apparently, it isn’t just coal that provides energy, now is it?

Belweather Day in WI Tuesday

For Whom Will the Bell Toll???

RECALL ELECTION 18th SENATE: Clerks expecting heavy turnout

Meet John Galt

Briefly.

h/t: A friend.

Federally Unreserved

$16 Trillion loaned since 2007 to just one year ago. Three years to hand out $16 Trillion.

“The long-awaited GAO audit shows that the Federal Reserve loaned more than the worth of the annual US economy, and not just to American banks, although US institutions got the lion’s share.”

Can we clean out the Senate now? Please?

Remember in November 2012. Although it would be much better if we could do it sooner.

Read the whole article at Hot Air. I’m just too disgusted to say anymore about this here at the moment.

Of course. realize this is as a result of a recent GAO report.

This isn’t fantasy. This is corruption at the highest, unnacountable level.

Grounded

To paraphrase the FAA, this is no way to run a railroad.

About 4,000 FAA employees are now furloughed without pay, according to the FAA, as the Senate on Friday failed to approve a controversial House-passed extension of taxes that help fund the FAA.

Way to go, Senate. Guess you had much more important things on your mind.

The Real Deficit Deadline Ides of August

As explained by Don Surber, it would appear the POTUS has given up his throne to, gak, Harry Reid.

But the kicker is the explanation from Zero Hedge. This explanation tells us when we will actually be out of money. Or, rather – “… the money generating machinery won’t be in place on time.”

Yeah. Let’s be sure to watch this Chess game, or is it checkers? (King Me! Said Harry.)
