Cripple America

Posted on March 3, 2009. Filed under: General | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , |

My opinion: Obama and his team are in waaaaay over their collective heads. They believe the world is basically good, and because Obama is in control of the White House, the world will warm to them and we will all live together in harmony. Except that’s not the world. Putin will outmaneuver the clueless Obama. [...]

Obama Urges Spending Curbs for Somebody, But Not Him

Posted on February 23, 2009. Filed under: Politics | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , |

Associated Press headline, “Obama urges spending curbs, hands out $15 billion.” After not quite a month in office, I’ve begun to change my opinion on the President. I thought at first he was a useful idiot, a tool of the powerful Democrat Spending Machine. I no longer think he’s useful, and “idiot” may be too [...]

The Next Civil Liberties Scare

Posted on February 20, 2009. Filed under: General | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , |

Image via Wikipedia I’m amazed at how fast we’re moving to a system where the government controls everything. They’re nationalizing banks, socializing medicine, rewriting property laws and taxing our grandchildren as we speak. Here I thought the loss of property rights from the Kelo decision were bad for America. All this coming from lefties who [...]

Tea Party

And so the veil of deceit lifts. The news media, so eager to proclaim Obama as the messiah during the election cycle, now turns on him and begins to devour him. What changed? In one sense, nothing. Obama’s promises of socialist changes are progressing. Universal health care, nationalization of manufacturers and banking, imposition of union [...]

Most Economists Agree – The Stimulus is a Bad Idea

Posted on February 10, 2009. Filed under: Politics | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , |

From Obama’s speech last night – Most economists almost unanimously recognize that, even if philosophically you’re — you’re wary of government intervening in the economy, when you have the kind of problem we have right now — what started on Wall Street, goes to Main Street, suddenly businesses can’t get credit, they start paring back [...]

Congress Gives Themselves a Raise

Posted on December 19, 2008. Filed under: Finances, News | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , |

Because they gave away billions… no wait, over a trillion dollars of taxpayer’s money… … because in order to approve %750 billion of it, they had to add $150 billion in pork… … because they pressured banks to lend money to people to buy houses they couldn’t afford… … because the same people like Barney [...]

Christian Carnival CCXLIV

Posted on October 1, 2008. Filed under: Christian Carnival | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , |

Image via Wikipedia It’s National Bailout Day, seeing as how our illustrious US Congress has allocated $700 billion for Wall Street bankers. As Christians, I think we probably could put $700 billion to better use, don’t you? But I got to thinking that our lives are not ours, we have been purchased at a cost. [...]

Bailouts and Earmarks

Posted on October 1, 2008. Filed under: Finances, News, Politics | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , |

As we all know by now, Congress failed to pass the Bailout Bill on Monday for $700 billion (a number, apparently, the US Treasury just made up). If they pass it, they saddle taxpayers with the debt and socialize the banking system. If they don’t pass it, they tell us civilization will end as we [...]

Mortgage Meltdown

Posted on September 20, 2008. Filed under: Finances, News | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , |

Image via Wikipedia I had been thinking this, but hadn’t seen anybody writing about it. Sub-prime mortgages have led to a financial crisis. The blame for sub-prime mortgages generally get laid on the greed of the mortgage bankers, but is that all there is to it? Twenty years ago I remember the push to get [...]

Yasser Arafat's Wife

Posted on September 27, 2007. Filed under: Fun Stuff | Tags: , , , , , , |

I suppose she must have found me by googling, perhaps looking for Dale Earnhardt’s current girlfriend. However she found me, Mrs. Arafat emailed me and wants to share $6.5 billion dollars with me. From: Mrs Suha Arafat ( mrsarafatsuha80@gmail.com ) Re: Trusted Partner For Investment/Safekeep Wednesday, September 26, 2007 1:31:26 PM This mail may not [...]
