Shocking

For a little while. Only as much as we can afford, right, Senator Joe?

Message to you, Joe, we don’t need any such legislation piled on top of us like you did with Obamacare. Certainly not on top of the ever spiraling debt.

If anything, of those 50 that want to vote for it – we want those 50 to switch and vote AGAINST it! Along with those 20.

Lose Your Money Lose Your Job Lose Your Home

Overdramatic? Think so? You decide.

If this projection, and the Cap and Trade Bill come to pass – then who’s to blame?

We are staring down the barrel of a financial gun that will destroy our lives our offspring’s futures and our country.

Is that what you want? I most certainly do not.

Never let a fight take your rights or your way of life.

UPDATE: What In The Wide Wide World of ….

Is going on here?

Who told those barges to stop vacuuming oil from the waters along Louisiana’s shores?

UPDATE: Oh, these guys shut them down. Well, at least it was temporary. Thanks to Governor Jindal.

UPDATE: Healthcare Coverage Uncovered

Imagine that.

According to Jim Hoft at GatewayPundit, a majority of Americans will lose their company sponsored health plans within 3 years.

Well, not so much by Jim Hoft he just posted the news this afternoon, try Investors via Doug Ross.

How’s that Hope and Change going there? Ready to vote this coming September? (Here in Maryland, that’s the Primary 09/14/10 – you want this unfunded then repealed? Consider voting for me. Sorry, usually I am not so upfront with that approach but this isn’t about one or a couple running for office. This is about saving our country, dammit.)

UPDATE: Now this little tidbit that is stuck inside the Healthcare legislation. How’s this for taxing by alchemy?

New and Deadly EPA Regulations

According to the AP:
The Senate has rejected a bid to stop the Obama administration from imposing regulations on greenhouse gases, giving a boost to President Barack Obama as he pursues broader clean energy legislation.
More …

And the vote was 53 Nays to 43 Yeas (Roll Call). Take a guess how our illustrious Maryland U.S. Senators voted. Think they had our best interest at heart?

I will save you the trouble. They both voted against this bill that would have prevented the EPA from imposing the worst piece of regulation on our entire society.

What hutzpah. What unmitigated gall. What super-inflated, uneducated egos.

They just allowed appointed Marxists the power to regulate us into the dark ages. They have to go.

Tax Cuts, Jobs, Economy. The Truth.

All wrapped up. Just for you. The truth. Finally.
The Bush tax cuts versus what Obama/Pelosi said & did.

By the way, aren’t these tax cuts going to expire after the end of this year?
That means, you know, your take home pay is going to shrink.

Get ready for the pain.

Another Spectacular Billboard

In Arizona, no less. And just like others, the purchaser is keeping his (?) anonymity.

The Future

I hate it when that happens.

My best friend and I were talking the other day about looming price increases on our fuel consumption such as gas and diesel. Well, here’s what a former Shell Executive has to say – we may be seeing $6 to $8 per gallon of fuel on the horizon.

I have one question for each of us. How much money do you have left to spend at the end of your monthly budget?

To expand on this: Will you be able to afford to go to work every day now? How about your grocery bill? Bet we are all going on a forced diet, you think? How often will you be cutting your grass now? Probably have to do it yourself since you won’t be able to afford paying your lawn service, right? Home deliveries of food, drugs, newspapers, trash and recycle pickups – all those are going to increase in their bills left in your mailbox. No more going out to eat, no more going to the mall or movies. (And let’s face it, there will likely be a rash of additional bankruptcies and foreclosures right on the heels of all these cost increases.)

And let’s not forget our electric bills.

Thank the Administration, folks. For their short-sightedness and reactionary policies involving the latest fiasco.

This is going to hurt. Big time.

UPDATE: Rocketing To The Poorhouse

Remember November. Got to do that – and vote.

After all, look at what they have done to our wallets.
Congress spent $230B since passing Pay-As-You-Go.

And these nimrods want us to trust them. To vote for them.

HAH! Like THAT’s going to happen.

UPDATE: Did I say rocketing? More like, taxing us until we can no longer afford to drive to work. Thereby increasing unemployment, revenue dropping like sacks of wet cement, bankrupting every one in the country and ultimately destroying the government itself. Hows that for starters? Say thanks to the POTUS, folks.

Oh, and let’s not forget how big of an impact this will have on those with fixed incomes. Yup, to add insult to injury, it looks like no COLA increase for the 2nd year in a row for those on Social Security.

Rich Not Paying Their Fair Share

According to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Her own personal opinion she says.

Yeah.

Now, if you watched Glenn Beck on this past May 3rd, you would have heard a clip of President Obama say “… I do think, at a certain point you’ve made enough money …”.

Glenn went on (silently) to list about 9 (10? Yup, Bill & Hillary) people who each have a current worth in the millions to billions of dollars.

Hillary? Well, she and her husband are $35M to the good. Oprah? $245M.
Soros? Try $14B. Gore? estimated at $100M. Andy Stern? $306K per year.
And some others.

So, are they – have they – paying their fair share, SoS Clinton?????

You know what this means, don’t you?

They got theirs, you won’t have a chance at reaching your potential.
Not if they have their say.

By the way. Define what “rich” is.
