(Visualize tumbleweeds blowing across these pages.  Imagine wind howling through the words.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have enjoyed writing these rants.  I may well come back some day and do more.  However, one of my many other projects is writing fiction.  I recently showed one of my stories to some editors and authors that I know.  Many of them think I have the potential to get paid for my writing.  So I will be spending as much time writing as before, but I will be writing fiction instead of political commentary.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wish me luck.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks again for your interest and feedback.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-2103785671988504942?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/2103785671988504942/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/taking-break.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/2103785671988504942'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/2103785671988504942'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/taking-break.html' title='Taking A Break.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-6483602761679433038</id><published>2010-06-13T07:03:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-13T07:10:34.632-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='education'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='politics'/><title type='text'>I Want A Degree In High Heel Walking!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://news.ninemsn.com.au/world/1067001/college-course-teaches-teens-to-walk-in-heels"&gt;http://news.ninemsn.com.au/world/1067001/college-course-teaches-teens-to-walk-in-heels&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;College course teaches girls to walk in heel&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;A government-funded course that teaches teenage girls how to walk in high heels has raised eyebrows in London.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why has a course for walking in high heels at a local college raised any eyebrows?  It is not as if a college education currently has any value.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Over the years the goal of education has changed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before government took over, education was provided by and for individuals who wanted to better themselves, and make an impact on the world.  After the government took over education, it was to create a class of incompetent, hopeless and corrupt slaves to labor under their slave masters orders, or be sent to the gulags for reeducation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was educated people who believed in freedom who created the United States in order to have a better life for themselves and their children.  Unfortunately for the government, those are the kind of people that no government that wants to stay in power for any length of time can have as &lt;strike&gt;slaves&lt;/strike&gt; citizens.  If you believe that you can make a better life for yourself and your children, you are less likely to accept the abuses that government dishes out.  You are more likely to stand up for your rights and fight for them.  If the government can convert citizens into slaves, then the government can continue until it collapses from the greed and corrupt that this kind of system promotes.  In case you have forgotten your American history (or are a college graduate, and therefore never learned), America was formed by people fleeing a repressive government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I do have a few more questions and comments for you before ending this rant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In California (and probably elsewhere), there are many students that can &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOT&lt;/span&gt; read or write in &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;ANY&lt;/span&gt; language!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How could a government that is facing bankruptcy, and the inability to supply welfare for the jobless and the alien invaders, come up with funding for a college class to teach walking in high heels?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How could any college, teachers or staff, allow their premises be used for teaching walking in high heels?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why aren't the faculty and students rioting and looting and burning down that college and the town it is located in?  In California, the students riot and loot and burn down local businesses for the "rights" of alien invaders to invade the United States and for the "rights" of Muslim terrorists to kill citizens in the United States and abroad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Therefore, I believe that the government controlled education system is finally approaching the degree of success that it has been aiming for all along.  Very soon, the only value a college degree will have is to wipe yourself after going to the bathroom.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-6483602761679433038?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/6483602761679433038/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/i-want-degree-in-high-heel-walking.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/6483602761679433038'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/6483602761679433038'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/i-want-degree-in-high-heel-walking.html' title='I Want A Degree In High Heel Walking!'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-4240278437088748454</id><published>2010-06-13T07:02:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-13T07:10:16.963-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='hypocrisy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='health care'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='politics'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fraud'/><title type='text'>Obama Celebrates Physicians Unwillingness To Care For Patients.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/13/health/policy/13address.html"&gt;http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/13/health/policy/13address.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Obama Presses Congress to Avert Medicare Pay Cuts&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;“I’m absolutely willing to take the difficult steps necessary to lower the cost of Medicare and put our budget on a more fiscally sustainable path,” he (Barack Hussein Obama) said. “But I’m not willing to do that by punishing hard-working physicians or the millions of Americans who count on Medicare.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh really?

You believed Barack Hussein Obama when he fraudulently claimed that the stimulus (welfare for the wealthy) would fix the economy.  With millions unemployed and millions facing homelessness, you still believed Barack Hussein Obama when he said that he really did fix the economy.  You believed Barack Hussein Obama when he claimed that the Health Care Deform bill would fix the problems with the health care industry &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;AND&lt;/span&gt; balance the budget at the same time.  You believed Barack Hussein Obama when he claimed he wasn't bowing down to third world dictators and other foreign dignitaries.  You believed Barack Hussein Obama was being impartial every time he defended Muslim terrorists that killed Americans.  You believe Barack Hussein Obama every time he lies (which is every time he opens his mouth).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So why won't you believe me when I claim that the underwater oil well is capped and that the ocean has been cleaned up?

Obama's proposal would establish a $30 billion fund to boost lending to small businesses looking to hire and expand operations by providing additional capital to community banks.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Actually, to be honest, something that Barack Hussein Obama and his czars and commissars will never be, this is the worst depression the United States has ever had.  Ever!  This is the great depression!  This is not a recession.  This is not a minor correction.  You can &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOT&lt;/span&gt; ignore the problem and go on with business as usual.  Aside from the fact that there are very few businesses left to actually continue in business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the almost $800 billion stimulus (welfare for the wealthy) given away to political cronies last year didn't help the economy, how can $30 billion more make any difference.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh wait, the $800 billion stimulus (welfare for the wealthy) was political payback for contributing to Barack Hussein Obama's political campaign.  So the bill that "you must vote for to find out what is in it", the bill that is "too important for you to have time to read and understand" had the opposite effect of what was claimed.  However, the bill had the exact result that was intended.  Which is why there are now millions of Americans who have lost jobs.   That is why those lost no longer exist and will &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;NEVER&lt;/span&gt; come back.  Which is why millions of Americans are now facing losing their homes.  This is what Barack Hussein Obama calls saving the economy!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the $800 billion stimulus (welfare for the wealthy) had been divided evenly among all the men, women and children (and illegal aliens that the left wing democrats care so much for), everybody in this country would have gotten a check for more than $100,000 each.  If every person in this country started spending money like drunken sailors (or sober congressmen and senators), the current economy would look very different.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So you can rest assured that when the liar-in-chief tells you something, that it is a lie, and likely will have the opposite effect of what it is claimed it will do.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-4781350642948208728?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/4781350642948208728/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/what-can-30-billion-do-that-800-billion.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/4781350642948208728'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/4781350642948208728'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/what-can-30-billion-do-that-800-billion.html' title='What Can $30 Billion Do That $800 Billion Couldn&apos;t Do?'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-1863993547720014741</id><published>2010-06-12T07:14:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-12T07:32:46.335-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='politics'/><title type='text'>Is Alvin Green Too Moral To Become Senator?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/12/us/politics/12greene.html"&gt;http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/12/us/politics/12greene.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Who’s Alvin Greene? State Asks After Vote&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The Associated Press reported that Mr. Greene was arrested in November and is facing a felony obscenity charge; he is accused of showing pornography to a University of South Carolina student. He had been discharged “involuntarily” from the Army and showed no signs of having waged an actual campaign in recent months — no advertising, no staff, no money.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alvin Green looks like the typical socialist liberal democratic candidate. And like all socialist liberal democratic candidates, his major problem is in getting elected before getting caught.  Unlike the Barack Hussein Obama campaign, where the press whitewashed the racist American hating incompetent candidate with no job skills and no understanding of what America is, the press somehow accidentally discovered some of Alvin Green's problems, and managed to not cover them up as usual.  Which places the democratic party in the awkward position of trying to explain why they have to pretend they don't know who this guy is and how he managed to run for office on the socialist liberal democratic platform.  But as long as the press believes that their job as socialist liberal democrats is to cover up any and all problems with the socialist liberal democratic candidate, this will be a continuing problem.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-1863993547720014741?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/1863993547720014741/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/is-alvin-green-too-moral-to-become.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/1863993547720014741'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/1863993547720014741'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/is-alvin-green-too-moral-to-become.html' title='Is Alvin Green Too Moral To Become Senator?'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-3073027592812620649</id><published>2010-06-11T07:02:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-11T08:51:18.696-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='literary license'/><title type='text'>United Nations Sanctions.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.jpost.com/IranianThreat/News/Article.aspx?id=177972"&gt;http://www.jpost.com/IranianThreat/News/Article.aspx?id=177972&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Iran: Sanctions are trash&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad responded Wednesday to the sanctions passed at the UN Security Council meeting, saying they were "worthless" and should only go into "the trash bin," in a report cited by Bloomberg News.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dateline:  United Nations, April 1, 2020&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The United Nations issued more sanctions against Iran for firing nuclear missiles against the newest Muslim nation, Italy.  Again.  This is the 51st time that Iran has fired nuclear missiles against some foreign aggressors.  The is the 154th time the United Nations has issued sanctions against Iran for enriching uranium beyond what is needed for medical reasons.  And for building nuclear devices.  And for firing nuclear missiles against foreign infidel aggressors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An Iranian official responded by saying that their rockets were not aimed at Italy.  They claimed that their target was France.  However, since the Mullah of Italy was refusing to follow the orders of the Mullah of Iran, that makes Italy a reasonable target for the ethnic cleansing they (and all other infidels) so richly deserve.  The Iranian official continued, stating that since that time, they have now armed the peoples army of Hamas and Al-Qaeda, who are also fighting against agression for their homelands.  The Iranian official ended his news conference expressing hope that the new nuclear powers will be admitted to the United Nations where they will soon be able to use words as well as nuclear devices to fight for their right to kill all infidels.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The onion.com was quoted as saying that if I "ever attempt to write a humorous article again, they will have my literary license revoked."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-3073027592812620649?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/3073027592812620649/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/united-nations-sanctions.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/3073027592812620649'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/3073027592812620649'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/united-nations-sanctions.html' title='United Nations Sanctions.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-1672465655447689924</id><published>2010-06-11T07:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-11T08:48:47.647-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economy'/><title type='text'>Federal Government Running Scared Of The Economy.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.businessweek.com/news/2010-06-11/circuit-breakers-may-be-sec-s-first-step-in-slowing-down-stocks.html"&gt;http://www.businessweek.com/news/2010-06-11/circuit-breakers-may-be-sec-s-first-step-in-slowing-down-stocks.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Circuit Breakers May Be SEC’s First Step in Slowing Down Stocks&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s plan to impose halts on some stocks that swing more than 10 percent starting today may be followed by more measures to slow down trading.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me see if I understand this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The stock market is supposed to accurately reflect the state of the economy.  But the federal government is working on rules and regulations that will allow an "unnatural" increase in stock prices, but will prevent an "unnatural" decrease in stock prices.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am using the term "unnatural" in quotes, because the federal government is having problems.  The problem is, every time the federal government talks about how wonderful the economy is doing and tries to point at some new measure they created to prove their point, even those numbers take a dive.  It is reaching the point where only economists and government employees are capable of the "willing suspension of disbelief" required to believe any pronouncement from the federal government.  And the government flunkies are getting tired of creating new metrics that are proved false even before the ink is dry.  So, since reality won't cooperate with the federal government, the federal government will force reality to change it's ways.  And since the government wants to claim that the rising stock prices proves the economy is recovering, they have to do something to prevent stock prices from falling.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After all, the federal government has no interest in fixing the economy.  They just want the people to believe that the federal government cares.  Which makes it easier for the politicians to get reelected and continue on with their conversion to socialism where you will have the freedom to spread the poverty with all the people who were forced out of their homes and their jobs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Welcome to the land of debris and the home of depraved.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-1672465655447689924?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/1672465655447689924/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/federal-government-running-scared-of.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/1672465655447689924'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/1672465655447689924'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/federal-government-running-scared-of.html' title='Federal Government Running Scared Of The Economy.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-693416022613359240</id><published>2010-06-10T07:02:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-10T09:18:04.835-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='employment'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economy'/><title type='text'>Thar's Gold In Them Thar taxpayers!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://blogs.forbes.com/digitalrules/2010/06/the-millionaire-cop-next-door/"&gt;http://blogs.forbes.com/digitalrules/2010/06/the-millionaire-cop-next-door/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The Millionaire Cop Next Door&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;It is said that government workers now make, on average, 30% more than private sector workers. Put that fantasy aside. It far underestimates the real figures. By my calculations, government workers make more than twice as much.  Government workers are America's fastest-growing millionaires.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Boy was I brought up wrong.

Or if that wasn't enough for me, start my own business.  Work hard, and I would be rewarded.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instead I find out how wrong I was.  The best way to make money, is get a job working for the government.  Once you are in the union, you can't get fired.  Once you are in the union, your wages and retirement plan skyrocket.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why should I, or anyone else waste our time starting our own business or even working?

In fact, the situation may have grown worse because the extra federal funds that the governor and the Legislature have counted on are evaporating.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is Dan Walters so upset about?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are politicians after all.  People who weren't bright enough to know which end of the gun to point at the grocery store clerk when robbing the store.  So they didn't have much else left on their career track except going into politics, where criminal activity is endorsed and approved by all &lt;strike&gt;criminals&lt;/strike&gt; politicians.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Think about this for a moment.  The United States was started back in 1787, and California wasn't admitted to the United States until 1850.  63 years later.  And yet California is much closer to bankruptcy than most of the other 50 states of the United States.  California politicians had to work much harder than other states to speed ahead of the others.  So the politicians of the State of California can be justifiably proud of their accomplishments.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Judging by recent reports, most socialist countries are in a race with the United States to see who can declare bankruptcy first.  I will place my full faith and credit that the socialist-in-chief will be able to lead the United States to beat the P.I.G.S. countries (Portugal, Italy, Greece and Spain) in their rush to creating the ultimate workers socialist &lt;strike&gt;bankruptcy&lt;/strike&gt; paradise.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-956440970593902997?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/956440970593902997/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/budget-impasse-in-sacramento-otherwise.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/956440970593902997'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/956440970593902997'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/budget-impasse-in-sacramento-otherwise.html' title='Budget Impasse In Sacramento.

There's no evidence for this speculation, so far as I know, but it's hardly far-fetched. If Mr. Obama wants to avert a fiscal crisis and win re-election in 2012, he needs House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to be removed from her powerful post. A GOP takeover may be the only way.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's too late to avert a fiscal crisis.  Between the stimulus (welfare for the wealthy) and the Health Care Deform monstrosity, the United States has been dealt a one two punch in the economy that it may never recover from.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This opinion piece seems to think it is worth while to reelect Barack Hussein Obama as long as you don't allow Barack Hussein Obama to actually do anything.  With the way things are currently going, the best thing the United States can do is reverse everything that Barack Hussein Obama did.  The second best thing the United States can do, is nothing.  Unfortunately, Barack Hussein Obama was able to pass all kinds of legislation that has fatally damaged the ability of the United States to provide freedom and a safe environment to it's legal citizens.  So at this point, even doing nothing, is way too problematic for the United States because of the bills passed when Barack Hussein Obama was actively working to destroy the United States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although I am not sure why anyone with Barack Hussein Obama's agenda, deserves reelection.  And I am even less sure why it is important to reelect someone who's goals are as un-American as Barack Hussein Obama's are.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-6991985255288015401?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/6991985255288015401/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/obama-could-be-best-president-ever-if.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/6991985255288015401'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/6991985255288015401'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/obama-could-be-best-president-ever-if.html' title='Obama Could Be Best President Ever, If He Would Only Go Back To Accepting Bribes In Chicago Instead Of In The White House.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-753207729083855648</id><published>2010-06-07T07:13:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-07T11:09:48.121-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='corruption'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='politics'/><title type='text'>The Best Politicians Money Can Buy.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.news10.net/news/local/story.aspx?storyid=82942&amp;catid=2"&gt;http://www.news10.net/news/local/story.aspx?storyid=82942&amp;catid=2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Are Meg Whitman and Steve Poizner trying to buy the election?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course they are trying to buy the election.  In the grand tradition of corrupt politics, all politicians are used to buying their political office.  Just ask former governor Rod Blagojevich about buying and selling political offices.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"Voters are electing people to represent themselves," he (Dave Levinthal with the Center for Responsive Politics in Washington D.C.) said. "Therefore, these candidates, no matter how much money they have, no matter how many movies they've made, still report to the people of California."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What a great sound bite.  Spoken like a true politician.  With not a word of truth in the whole statement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A more honest statement would read that "fat cat politicians, with their million dollar slush funds, with their full pensions after one term in office, in their chauffeur driven cars report to the people of California, but they answer to the special interest groups that fund their campaigns".  Is it possible that Meg Whitman or Steve Poizner will answer to the people?  Sure it is.  It is also possible that the sun won't rise in the east and that Barack Hussein Obama will finally tell the truth.  It is just not very likely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even if you are willing to suspend your ability to think, and accept that Meg Whitman or Steve Poizner if elected will do what is best for California, you are forgetting one not so minor problem.  All the rest of the politicians in Sacramento that are unwilling to balance the budget.  Their time is better spent prohibiting teenage girls from getting nipple rings, deciding the price and kind of grocery bags available to shoppers (paper or plastic) or declaring war on Arizona.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lest you think I am coming down too hard on California politicians, let me remind you of the Health Care Deform Bill recently passed in Washington District of Criminals (D.C.).  When congress first tried to pass the bill, they had to bribe some of the politicians to vote for it.  When the politicians realized that the senate would NOT pass the congressional bill, congress tried to pass the bill by pretending it had already passed and they were simply amending the bill.  When that didn't work, and congress finally decided to accept the senat version of the Health Care Deform bill, the congressmen were assured that as a matter of public policy they could find out what the bill does by voting for the bill.  Does this seem like politicians who are answering to their constituents?  If so, why were so many democrats rushing to announce their retirement after the bill passed?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-753207729083855648?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/753207729083855648/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/best-politicians-money-can-buy.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/753207729083855648'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/753207729083855648'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/best-politicians-money-can-buy.html' title='The Best Politicians Money Can Buy.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-2674264634322188366</id><published>2010-06-05T06:50:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-05T07:16:20.640-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='security'/><title type='text'>Obama Upsets Congress And Democrats By Nominating A Qualified Person For A Government Position.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/article7144659.ece"&gt;http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/article7144659.ece&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Obama chooses military veteran to reset US intelligence&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Peter Hoekstra, ranking Republican on the House of Representatives intelligence committee, recently described General Clapper as “exactly the wrong person” for the DNI’s role because he had “disregard and disdain for Congress”.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is wrong with feeling “disregard and disdain for Congress”?  After the stimulus (welfare for the wealthy) and the Health Care Deform debacle, most educated, legal citizens of the United States feel contempt and disgust for congress (as well as all the other politicians, czars, commissars, henchmen, minions and political appointees).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Normally I would assume that any person that Barack Hussein Obama nominates for any position must be as corrupt and incompetent as Barack Hussein Obama himself.  The only thing that causes me to begin to doubt my basic axiom of Barack Hussein Obama's reign of terror, is that most of the politicians in congress hates his nominee.  I wonder what kind of one time fluke happened that caused the incompetent-in-chief to accidentally nominate someone for a job who might actually have some skill in performing that job?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Pressure on intelligence agencies heightened after a passer-by spotted a bomb planted in a car near Times Square in Manhattan on May 1. The bomb failed to explode but the man suspected of planting it, Faisal Shahzad, a Pakistani immigrant, was allowed to board a flight to Dubai despite being on a no-fly list. He was removed from the plane and arrested.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is surprising.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The alphabet soup of agencies who are supposed to protect American lives from "man-caused disasters" couldn't find the bomb in Times Square.  The "man-caused disasters" expert was on the no-fly list, but managed to get on board a plane anyway.  This is normally what Obamaspeak considers proof that the new improved security measures are working to protect the lives and property of American citizens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is the world coming to, when an incompetent and corrupt politician (Barack Hussein Obama) nominates a competent and honest person (General Clapper) for a job he is skilled to perform?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-2674264634322188366?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/2674264634322188366/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/obama-upsets-congress-and-democrats-by.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/2674264634322188366'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/2674264634322188366'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/obama-upsets-congress-and-democrats-by.html' title='Obama Upsets Congress And Democrats By Nominating A Qualified Person For A Government Position.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-2838940198531120309</id><published>2010-06-05T06:23:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-05T07:16:09.146-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='incompetence'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='taxes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='politics'/><title type='text'>Federal Government Reduces Taxes By Millions And Never Notices.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://azstarnet.com/news/national/article_22ab01cd-2f71-54c3-9c1b-6daa0a51ed87.html"&gt;http://azstarnet.com/news/national/article_22ab01cd-2f71-54c3-9c1b-6daa0a51ed87.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Children's health program loses millions due to tobacco-tax loophole&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;A tobacco tax loophole in President Obama's children's health-insurance program cost the government more than $250 million in its first year, public health officials say.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barack Hussein Obama must be proud of himself.  In an effort to balance the budget, he has managed to decrease revenue and increase spending.  Just like most of his other plans to balance the budget.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or to explain this in a different way, this is like the federal government passing a "Global Warming" reduction bill that includes making it a crime to breathe, and then spending years working on an environmental impact report to determine the consequences of repealing the part of the law that criminalizes breathing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As this article goes on to explain, the difference between rolling tobacco and pipe tobacco is about $21.00 per pound in taxes.  Since business is never as stupid or corrupt as politicians, rolling tobacco is being relabeled as pipe tobacco.  The federal government which so carefully writes these bills, and monitors their effect, never noticed the annual loss of $250 million of tax revenue.  The state of Oregon, not being quite as incompetent and corrupt as the federal government did notice that the new federal law caused a major decrease in tax revenue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fortunately for the tobacco industry, federal politicians who are always willing to rush to pass poorly written laws, will never rush to fix poorly written laws.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-2838940198531120309?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/2838940198531120309/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/federal-government-reduces-taxes-by.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/2838940198531120309'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/2838940198531120309'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/federal-government-reduces-taxes-by.html' title='Federal Government Reduces Taxes By Millions And Never Notices.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-5866672416151137693</id><published>2010-06-05T06:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-05T07:15:57.595-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='incompetence'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='corruption'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='politics'/><title type='text'>California Lawmaker Paid To Skip Work.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-bass-20100605,0,4785236,print.story"&gt;http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-bass-20100605,0,4785236,print.story&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;California lawmaker skips Capitol meetings but collects tax-free per diem payments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Since Karen Bass announced her bid for Congress in February, the former speaker of the state Assembly has been missing from the chamber she once led more than she has been there. Bass nonetheless continued to collect the tax-free per diem payments that lawmakers are given to cover expenses associated with attending legislative sessions.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is wrong with this picture?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nothing.  Politicians as a general rule never do any useful work when in office.  So not showing up for work and getting paid anyway is hardly out of line for a politician. And considering how corrupt and incompetent most politicians are, it is a good thing that they rarely show up for work, or the state of California would have gone bankrupt much sooner than it will.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;On March 3, Bass stood on the steps of City Hall with Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa to announce his endorsement. Two weeks earlier, she was joined by a trio of City Council members — Eric Garcetti, Paul Krekorian and Tom LaBonge — to announce their backing.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa is probably the perfect politician to endorse state Assembly Speaker Karen Bass, as Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa has almost a perfect record of avoiding work.  Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa is famous worldwide for being almost as unethical, corrupt, incompetent as any Mexican National or Chicago politician.  So if Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa is endorsing state Assembly Speaker Karen Bass, then I suspect we all know what kind of job she has been doing and will be doing if reelected.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-5866672416151137693?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/5866672416151137693/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/california-lawmaker-paid-to-skip-work.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/5866672416151137693'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/5866672416151137693'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/california-lawmaker-paid-to-skip-work.html' title='California Lawmaker Paid To Skip Work.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-6064355147922560254</id><published>2010-06-04T07:05:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-04T07:24:02.837-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='incompetence'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='politics'/><title type='text'>California Legislators Winning The Race To The Bottom National Contest.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.csmonitor.com/layout/set/print/content/view/print/305813"&gt;http://www.csmonitor.com/layout/set/print/content/view/print/305813&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;California advances grocery store plastic bag ban&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The California Assembly on Wednesday approved a bill that would ban stores from providing plastic bags, and require them to charge for paper ones. Similar bans are in place in China and Bangladesh.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;California legislators are determined to win Obama's "Race To The Bottom".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Their plan to win is showing great promise.  First off, California legislators are refusing to balance the budget, which is currently short by about $20 billion short.  By not balancing the budget, the California legislators are insuring that government employees will go on strike to collect their wages.  This will also help the California economy by forcing business that supply the state with goods and services to go bankrupt when they can't pay their bills because California won't pay it's bills.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;California legislators plans to balance the budget are equally farsighted.  They are planning on selling off public buildings as well as parks and recreational facilities to real estate developers.  I am eagerly looking forward to the time when the all government offices are shut down and government employees evicted when the State of California can't make the rent payments.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alternative plans to win the "Race To The Bottom" include innovative ways to deal with the overcrowding in prisons.  By increasing arrests for misdemeanors, the overcrowding problem is made worse.  The solution that California legislators have come up with is to provide early release for violent felons and not provide parole services for the early releases.  Which is not as bad as you would think.  After all, rapist kidnappers can easily harbor kidnap victims for 20 or more years while under supervision and not get noticed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One plan that the California legislators are contemplating, is doubling or tripling the tax rates on any businesses that haven't yet failed and on legal citizens that haven't yet declared bankruptcy.  Adding more people to the welfare and unemployment rolls is always good for a federal bailout.  If increasing the taxes is not enough, making California a magnet state for unemployed and alien invaders is destined to overwhelm the welfare and unemployment rolls, thus forcing the federal government to give California an even larger bailout.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An of course the one plan that all legislators always approve of.  Giving themselves raises.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you can see, the California legislators have the not balancing the budget problem well in hand.  So it makes sense that the California legislators move on to other important issues.  Like ignoring the failing economy.  But how will the California legislators deflect attention from their unwillingness to balance the budget and save the economy?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Easy.  The California legislators will work on legislation that is near and dear to the "green party" and other socialist groups.  Like whether grocery stores should use paper or plastic bags.  Obviously this is a much more important issue than balancing the budget, saving the economy, or letting violent felons out of prison early.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aren't you glad that California politicians are hard at work doing whatever it is that politicians do?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-6064355147922560254?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/6064355147922560254/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/california-legislators-winning-race-to.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/6064355147922560254'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/6064355147922560254'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/california-legislators-winning-race-to.html' title='California Legislators Winning The Race To The Bottom National Contest.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-6711661902422649346</id><published>2010-06-04T07:04:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-04T07:23:43.167-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='literary license'/><title type='text'>No Limited Oil Drilling Here!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/06/03/AR2010060302738.html"&gt;http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/06/03/AR2010060302738.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Interior Dept. denies it has extended drilling freeze to shallow gulf waters&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The Interior Department denied that it has extended a drilling freeze to shallow waters of the Gulf of Mexico, contradicting an e-mail written earlier Thursday by the Minerals Management Service's supervisor of field operations for the Gulf of Mexico.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barack Hussein Obama held a press conference to explain his position on oil drilling.  He stated that he is not in favor of limiting drilling.  In fact, this press conference was to announce his new expanded oil drilling policy.  In spite of opposition from the "Green Party" and his Mullah, he is opening up oil drilling in all locations that are more than 10,000 feet above sea level.  This plan will encourage development of alternative energy sources and provide independence from mid-east oil.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In order to make this new plan work, Barack Hussein Obama will need to create a new "Green Energy" czar.  The new enforcement arm of the new czar will be the new "Green Energy Army".  The new "Green Energy Army" will also help kick start the economy by creating many much needed jobs &lt;strike&gt;for the violent felons getting early release to help balance the budget&lt;/strike&gt;.  This army will be armed &lt;strike&gt;and dangerous&lt;/strike&gt; to prevent any future oil leaks.  If an oil leak happens anyway, the "Green Energy Army" will have the authority and ability to immediately punish any oil company, or anyone associated with an oil company.  The "Green Energy Army" will also oversee the criminalization of oil importation by pipes, boats or trains.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When questioned why his minions and henchmen previously announced the limitation of oil drilling, Barack Hussein Obama responded in the manner expected of all great leaders.  Barack Hussein Obama proclaimed that he misspoke what the audience misunderstood.  He ranted that the racist media were always twisting his words.  He complained that it was all Bush's fault.  He stated that Muslims were not terrorists and we should always welcome armed burqua wearing proselytes into our homes.  He then continued to speak for half an hour, completely baffling the audience, and putting some of them to sleep.  Barack Hussein Obama then announced that if anyone asked that question again, his new "Green Energy Army" would have the questioner taken out and shot for subversive activities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The onion.com was quoted as saying that if I "ever attempt to write a humorous article again, they will have my literary license revoked."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-6711661902422649346?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/6711661902422649346/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/no-limited-oil-drilling-here.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/6711661902422649346'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/6711661902422649346'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/no-limited-oil-drilling-here.html' title='No Limited Oil Drilling Here!'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-2409316413395631472</id><published>2010-06-04T07:03:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-04T19:08:03.940-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='crime'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='justice'/><title type='text'>Use A Camera, Go To Prison</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://gizmodo.com/5553765/are-cameras-the-new-guns"&gt;http://gizmodo.com/5553765/are-cameras-the-new-guns&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Are Cameras the New Guns?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;In response to a flood of Facebook and YouTube videos that depict police abuse, a new trend in law enforcement is gaining popularity. In at least three states, it is now illegal to record any on-duty police officer.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank god for this judicial ruling.  This clears up so many misunderstandings.  Previously I had thought that law enforcement agencies were supposed to prevent crime.  Or if they can't prevent crime, at least capture the criminals who commit crimes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I know better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Criminals switch sides and become law enforcement officials so that they can commit crimes without worry of capture or punishment.  It has become a more serious crime for law abiding citizens to record law enforcement personnel committing crimes than it is for law enforcement personnel to commit crimes.  Of course, it is still a crime if a law abiding citizen did what a law enforcement official did.  After all, we can't have lawlessness be the law of the land.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me review the situation:  The courts have previously ruled that it is against the law to protect yourself from unlicensed and unregulated criminals.  The courts are now ruling that documenting licensed and regulated criminals (police) is a crime.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My dream of living in a communist police state has come true.

The schools are already teaching "Global Warming".  What harm can there be in requiring schools to spend time teaching even more leftist propaganda disguised as truth.  Maybe the schools can then teach that looting and rioting is an appropriate form of political protest.  Heck, it is probably racist to require the Mexican Nationals getting their free education in the United States to learn to speak English.  After all, we know that the real reason for the anger at the Arizona Alien Invader law is because it will delay giving back southwestern United States to Mexico.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just think, if every left wing nut job is not able to inject his favorite insanity into the educational system, how can the democratic minority ever hope to win an election again?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-1629179631897623257?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/1629179631897623257/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/los-angeles-unified-school-district-to.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/1629179631897623257'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/1629179631897623257'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/los-angeles-unified-school-district-to.html' title='The Los Angeles Unified School District To Teach That All Whites Are Racists.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-5149187388472514839</id><published>2010-06-04T07:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-04T07:22:50.511-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='corruption'/><title type='text'>Obama Proves That Corruption And Politics Do Mix.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/ct-met-blagojevich-trial-politics-20100602,0,4829097,print.story"&gt;http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/ct-met-blagojevich-trial-politics-20100602,0,4829097,print.story&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Blagojevich trial will spotlight worst elements of state's political culture&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even so, Barack Hussein Obama, as the criminal-in-chief of the United States, is putting a national and international spotlight on the worst elements of Illinois' political culture of corruption.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barack Hussein Obama helped pass a stimulus bill that didn't stimulate the economy.

Then Newsom might have a chance at running for the governor position.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why do we need to wait?  We already know that Gavin Newsom is not going to act responsibly as lieutenant governor of California.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gavin Newsom didn't act responsibly as the mayor of San Francisco.  Gavin Newsom declared San Franciso is a sanctuary city for alien invaders.  Gavin Newsom ran an advertising campaign so that San Francisco would be a magnet for the alien invaders.  How is that acting responsibly?  How did that benefit the legal taxpaying citizens of San Francisco?  I guess the legal taxpaying citizens could be assured that when they were being murdered by an illegal alien gang banger who was just released from prison rather than being deported that the alien gang banger was being treated as well as any victorious invading army would be treated by the losing side.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But then again, this is California.  What ain't fruits and nuts is flakes.  And Gavin Newsom is acting as responsibly as any left wing liberal socialist is capable of acting when working for the destruction of the United States.  Maybe Gavin Newsom can petition Mexico to make California a tributary state for Mexico, so that all the legal citizens can get evicted to make space for the now legal Mexican citizens who only left their country because of the incompetent corrupt pandering politicians, much like Gavin Newsom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is truly what we need for the State of California to make it a great part of Mexico.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-308342903907470233?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/308342903907470233/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/gavin-newsom-wants-to-lead-california.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/308342903907470233'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/308342903907470233'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/gavin-newsom-wants-to-lead-california.html' title='Gavin Newsom Wants To Lead California Where No Law Abiding Citizen Wants To Go.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-7265602022399987954</id><published>2010-06-03T07:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-03T08:49:52.496-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='boycott'/><title type='text'>Boycott Arizona?

Allowing innocent victims to carry weapons and protect themselves from criminals makes the streets of California an unsafe working environment for your average criminal.  And considering that in a budget saving move by legislators to release violent felons early and without oversight, allowing innocent victims to carry weapons, even unloaded weapons, sends the wrong message.  How can California ever become the sanctuary state for criminals it hopes to be if it allows innocent victims to protect themselves?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe it is time for the criminals to start their own union.  That way, the criminals will have a dedicated organization standing up for their rights.   While politicians normally tend to protect criminals rights, they are not as consistent about it as they should be.  If the criminals can reward the legislators every time the legislators take a stand that protects the criminals rights over the rights of innocent victims, then we would have a more uniform standard of protecting criminals and harassing innocent victims and potential victims.  In fact, a criminals union would be the one union that all politicians could join without compromising their morals.  I am sure that all the violent criminals would be willing to allow all the non-violent criminals (politicians) to join.  Or maybe all politicians would be honorary members because of their pro crime and anti victim and anti legal citizen activities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe even a new motto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Commit a crime, become a politician.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-8635874010031840891?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/8635874010031840891/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/california-assembly-moves-to-protect.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/8635874010031840891'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/8635874010031840891'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/california-assembly-moves-to-protect.html' title='California Assembly Moves To Protect Criminal&apos;s Rights.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-7166531691046667109</id><published>2010-06-02T07:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-02T07:13:51.864-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='justice'/><title type='text'>Obama Wants Independent Probe To Condemn Israel For Self Defense.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.jpost.com/International/Article.aspx?id=177216"&gt;http://www.jpost.com/International/Article.aspx?id=177216&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Obama wants credible flotilla probe&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;US President Barack Obama said Wednesday that he supports an 'independent' probe that would examine the events leading to Israel's Monday raid on the Gaza-bound protest flotilla, Army Radio reported.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barack Hussein Obama has stated that he is willing to accept the results of an independent bipartisan probe as long as it condemns Israel and exonerates the terrorists smuggling in weapons under the guise of peace activists.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barack Hussein Obama wants the same kind of bipartisan, independent probe that cleared the S.E.C. of incompetence and negligence for spending all their time surfing for porn rather than regulating Wall Street businesses that collapsed.  The same kind of bipartisan, independent probe that cleared Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae of incompetence and negligence for allowing the banking and home mortgage industry to collapse.  The same kind of bipartisan, independent probe that cleared the federal regulators who refused to oversee or investigate Bernie Madoff and allowed one of the worst Wall Street frauds in history to occur despite multiple whistle blowers.  The same kind of bipartisan, independent probe that cleared the Fort Hood Muslim Terrorist of being a Muslim Terrorist and cleared &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;ALL&lt;/span&gt; his superiors who refused to do anything to stop the shooter, despite knowing of the shooters extreme hate for America and all things American.  The same kind of bipartisan, independent probe that will clear the federal regulators who oversee offshore oil drilling and allowed a massive oil leak which has upset the entire world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just as Israel has no right to exist, Israeli troops inspecting the flotilla had no right to defend themselves when attacked by the peace activists.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a peace activist, you must be willing to kill or to die for your beliefs.  As a peace activist, you must be willing to support any and all terrorist organizations that kill women, children and unarmed men.  As a peace activist, you must be ready to misinform the media about any activity you participate in.

Barack Hussein Obama pretending to be concerned about the facts before issuing a response.  Barack Hussein Obama has never been concerned with learning the facts when dealing with a crisis before.  When a police officer was acting responsibly when dealing with an out of control suspect, Barack Hussein Obama was first to condemn the officer for racist actions.  When the Muslim terrorist opened fire in Fort Hood, Barack Hussein Obama was the first to deflect blame from Muslim terrorists.  When Arizona passed a law allowing local law enforcement officers to enforce the federal alien invasion laws, Barack Hussein Obama was the loudest among many of the opponents who proudly proclaimed they didn't need to read or understand the law to be opposed to it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is it possible that Barack Hussein Obama was concerned with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's having to deal with a crisis?  The only crises that Barack Hussein Obama has had to deal with, are that people might accept the facts as stated unless he can misinterpret the facts for the country.  Based on his past history, I think it is more likely that Barack Hussein Obama is an anti-Semite and didn't want to talk with the Jew.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The raid brought heightened attention to Israel's blockade of the Gaza Strip, imposed after the Palestinian militant group Hamas seized control of the tiny Mediterranean territory in 2007. The blockade - along with Israel's fierce offensive against Gaza in the winter of 2008-2009 to stop Hamas rocket fire - has fueled anti-Israeli sentiment around the Muslim world.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We all know, there is no excuse for Israel to defend themselves from any terrorist attack.  So naturally the press and the terrorists sympathizers want to spin this story to prove that the terrorists are really saints with hearts of gold (and weapons of destruction).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are no amount of rocket attacks killing women and children that Hamas can perform that will fuel anti-Hamas sentiment around the Muslim world.  Keep in mind that it is ethical and moral for Muslims to kill infidels (non-Muslims).&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-6451775074437952866?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/6451775074437952866/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/obama-administration-concerned-with.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/6451775074437952866'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/6451775074437952866'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/06/obama-administration-concerned-with.html' title='Obama Administration Concerned With Next Vacation.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-2539528557596615146</id><published>2010-05-31T07:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-31T07:42:45.848-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Obama Celebrates Oil Spill And Memorial Day By Going On Vacation.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/05/27/stressed-tone-deaf-obama-chicago-vacation-raises-eyebrows/"&gt;http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/05/27/stressed-tone-deaf-obama-chicago-vacation-raises-eyebrows/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Stressed Out or Tone Deaf?

Barack Hussein Obama hates America and Americans, and everything that has anything to do with America or Americans.  So going on vacation at a time of crisis makes perfect sense.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The White House has tried to fend off suggestions that it has not acted forcefully enough to mitigate the damage from the oil spill -- Obama held a full-scale press conference Thursday afternoon where he spoke extensively about mitigation efforts.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His mitigation efforts included sending down the D.H.S. (Department of Homeland Security) and S.W.A.T. (Special Weapons and Tactics ) teams to make sure that no unauthorized oil would land on the shores of the United States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barack Hussein Obama is always ready to hold a press conference.  His legacy is likely to be that no matter what crisis happened, Barack Hussein Obama would go on a vacation and hold a press conference announcing how the problem was caused by the prior president, or has already been solved by the current one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;But President Obama's decision to skip the traditional Memorial Day ceremony in Arlington while on his second vacation since the BP oil spill began has some wondering what the schedule says about his priorities.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is obvious what Barack Hussein Obama's priorities are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is obvious that when the nation participates in remembering the efforts of soldiers who gave their lives for America that Barack Hussein Obama would go on vacation so he wouldn't have to participate in the Arlington National Cemetery for the Memorial Day ceremony.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How is the contempt that Barack Hussein Obama is showing for the military of the past any different than the contempt Barack Hussein Obama is showing for the military of the present?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How can any military commander announce a withdrawal date for troops in Afghanistan at the same time he is announcing sending in more troops?  What possible military purpose can it serve to let the enemy know when you will quit fighting?  As the traitor-in-chief, Barack Hussein Obama should be aware that &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;NO&lt;/span&gt; military plan ever survives contact with the enemy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Department of Homeland Security, headed by an appointee of Barack Hussein Obama, recently declared all ex-military are a bigger threat to the United States than Muslim terrorists who have declared war on the United States.  If this is not contempt for American military, then I don't know what is.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-2539528557596615146?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/2539528557596615146/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obama-celebrates-oil-spill-and-memorial.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/2539528557596615146'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/2539528557596615146'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obama-celebrates-oil-spill-and-memorial.html' title='Obama Celebrates Oil Spill And Memorial Day By Going On Vacation.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-4870125892170442733</id><published>2010-05-29T08:00:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-29T08:19:47.300-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='union'/><title type='text'>Live Better Work Union</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/29/us/29pot.html"&gt;http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/29/us/29pot.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Medical Marijuana Workers in California Join Union Local&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;In what cannabis fans were calling a high-water mark for their movement to legitimize the drug, about 100 employees of medical marijuana-related businesses in Oakland were welcomed to the ranks of unionized workers on Friday after voting to join the United Food and Commercial Workers, Local 5.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess that settles it.  Once you are a union member, you have it made.  You get paid more than non-union workers.  You get better benefits than non-union workers.  You get better working conditions.  You work less hours.  You are no longer required to have or maintain any skills to retain your job.  You cannot get fired no matter what crimes you commit.  You now dictate to the business owner how he must run his own business.  You bribe government officials to do your bidding and protect the union.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe that is the answer for gays in the military.

As leaders in the movement to have Mexico annex California back to it's rightful owners, Los Angeles County Supervisors Gloria Molina and Zev Yaroslavsky have shown their contempt for the laws and the opportunities provided by the United States.  Rather than advocating general lawlessness on the part of alien invaders and legal citizens, Los Angeles County Supervisors Gloria Molina and Zev Yaroslavsky should be doing something positive and legal.  Like repealing special order 40, which makes it a crime for police offices to ask about the citizenship status of criminals.  Like stop making Los Angeles a sanctuary city for alien invaders and criminals.  Like balancing the budget before the city goes bankrupt.  Like stop accepting bribes from special interest groups.  Like fighting California bill AB 32, the Climate Change Final Solution which is about to start killing the economy (and taxing legal citizens to death) in a futile effort to affect "Global Warming" (which is fraud and a hoax perpetrated by power hungry politicians that want to micromanage every body's lives).&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-482969423747393973?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/482969423747393973/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/la-county-officials-demonstrate-support.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/482969423747393973'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/482969423747393973'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/la-county-officials-demonstrate-support.html' title='L.A.

If you call amnesty for alien invaders immigration reform, then you might be right.  On the surface, it might look like Barack Hussein Obama is doing something he abhors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barack Hussein Obama is looking forward to the alien invaders voting for him in the next election.  But to get that vote, he needs to ram through an amnesty bill before his reelection.  But after ramming through the Health Care Deform bill, the country, and even some of the democrats are starting to be concerned with Barack Hussein Obama's plan for the ultimate destruction of the constitution and the bill of rights.  If Barack Hussein Obama keeps pushing as hard as he has been, even the democrats that support him are starting to question his motives and his goals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;His administration claims it is doing enough to guard the US-Mexico border.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yup.  No fences.  No guards.  Seems like a reason plan to me to protect the United States borders.  It seems to be working very well to keep out Muslim terrorists.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;On Wednesday, however, Mr. Obama quietly relented to requests from Republican and some Democratic lawmakers for even more security. He ordered 1,200 National Guard troops to support the US Border Patrol and asked Congress for an additional $500 million for enforcement.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course Barack Hussein Obama and the rest of the politicians know this is strictly theater of the absurd.  This minuscule amount of money and troops is completely inadequate to deal with the hundreds of thousands of new alien invaders crossing the border every year.  When you factor in the drug lords and their army of smugglers, you begin to see how worthless the face saving stunt really is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Obama is trying to walk a fine line between those seeking more border security and those seeking to legalize some 10 million illegal aliens in the US.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barack Hussein Obama needs to legalize the newest group of alien invaders now.  His recent political sabotage of the American dream has turned millions of American against him and the democrats.  If Barack Hussein Obama waits too long, the millions of alien invaders will turn into tens of millions of alien invaders.  And even the democrats might start to wonder about the rationality of providing amnesty and welfare to that many more people when our failing economy can't afford to support the alien invaders and the legal citizens that are already here.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-3655589633632737898?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/3655589633632737898/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obama-pretends-to-care-about-security.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/3655589633632737898'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/3655589633632737898'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obama-pretends-to-care-about-security.html' title='Obama Pretends To Care About Security Of The United States.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-6895921791259617115</id><published>2010-05-28T07:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-28T07:01:00.023-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='health care'/><title type='text'>Another Obamacare Success Story.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100527/ap_on_bi_ge/us_medicare_doctor_cuts/print"&gt;http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100527/ap_on_bi_ge/us_medicare_doctor_cuts/print&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Uncertainty over Medicare pay sets doctors on edge&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;For the third time this year, Congress is scrambling to stave off a hefty pay cut to doctors treating Medicare patients — even as the Obama administration mails out a glossy brochure to reassure seniors the health care program is on solid ground.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The 21.3 percent cut will take effect June 1 unless Congress intervenes in the next few days. Recurring uncertainty over Medicare fees is making doctors take a hard look at their participation in a program considered a bedrock of middle-class retirement security.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do I understand this correctly?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The 2400 page Health Care Deform bill that was so critical for reforming the medical industry will be causing doctors to be paid so little, that the doctors can no longer afford to care for patients on medicare and medical?  If so, then the Health Care Deform was a brilliant piece of misdirection (you lie) on the part of the democrats.  If nobody on medicare can get medical treatment, then Barack Hussein Obama's promise that this bill would balance the budget is true.  If the government can't find any doctor to work for the low amounts that the government is willing to pay, then the government will not have to payout anything.  Thus lowering the payout and balancing the budget.  And all without the death squads people were so worried about either.  Who needs death squads when you can't get any medical care at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isn't socialized medicine wonderful.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-6895921791259617115?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/6895921791259617115/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/another-obamacare-success-story.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/6895921791259617115'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/6895921791259617115'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/another-obamacare-success-story.html' title='Another Obamacare Success Story.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-6392496502387678988</id><published>2010-05-27T07:36:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-27T07:48:28.127-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='incompetence'/><title type='text'>Government Jobs.

Mark Souder: There are no rules that expressly prohibit Members of Congress from sleeping with their staff.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not that any rule is going to stop any politician from doing anything they want to.  A politician is only good for screwing.  If a politician isn't busy screwing their underlings, then they are busy screwing the country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And keep in mind, that even if there is a rule expressly forbidding a politician from having sex with an underling, there isn't a politician alive that can't figure out why that rule doesn't mean what it says, and doesn't apply to politicians.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Think about the second amendment to the constitution of the United States.  The right to bear arms.  Back when the constitution was written, the United States didn't have a standing army.  Therefore it was necessary for every adult male to own a weapon so that they could defend the country as necessary.  Somehow, current politicians have managed to misunderstand that, and subvert that to mean that government storm troopers need to carry weapons to protect themselves against the citizens.  So if politicians can that completely reverse the obvious meaning of the Bill of Rights of Americans, there is nothing that a politician can't subvert to whatever nefarious purposes they want it to be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Several ethics experts who asked not to be named for this article suggested that the rule books probably don’t expressly prohibit a Member from sleeping with staffers because it is considered such an obvious infraction that there is no reason to spell it out.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obvious?  The only thing obvious to a politician is that government is of the special interest groups, by the special interest groups and for the special interest groups.  So the real reason why there are no ethics rules against married politicians having sex outside of their own marriage because this is something that all politicians do, so therefore it should not be punished.  Kind of like the federal anti-alien invasion laws, and the military rules about sexual orientation.  Don't ask, don't tell.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-2664540172286001721?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/2664540172286001721/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/ethics-committee-rules-that-all.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/2664540172286001721'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/2664540172286001721'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/ethics-committee-rules-that-all.html' title='Ethics Committee Rules That All Politicians Must Have Extramarital Affairs.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-2434016521275299016</id><published>2010-05-27T07:02:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-27T07:27:38.865-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='taxes'/><title type='text'>Democrats Propose Higher Taxes And More Government To Figure Out Why Government Is So Wasteful And So Big.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-budget-taxes-20100526,0,7286169,print.story"&gt;http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-budget-taxes-20100526,0,7286169,print.story&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Democrats propose tax hikes in response to Schwarzenegger's fiscal plan&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Despite the competing plans, Democrats in both houses agree that the deficit has grown so large — at $19.1 billion it is now roughly 20% of the state's general fund — that any rational plan to close it must include tax increases.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Which is why California in particular, and government in general will &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;NEVER&lt;/span&gt; balance the budget.  A man with a hammer, thinks all problems can be solved with a hammer.  A politician with the power to &lt;strike&gt;steal&lt;/strike&gt; tax, will think that all problems can be solved by higher taxes.  And exempting politicians from taxes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"We have to stop thinking we can afford to provide the amount of services that the state's residents expect for less money," said Sen. Gil Cedillo (D- Los Angeles). "That's just not going to happen."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh?  Look at Greece.  The citizens are so used to getting something for nothing that they are rioting because their ride on the gravy train is ending.  And what is Greece doing?  Aside from spending more than they can pillage and loot from their citizens?  Borrowing from other countries to continue providing what they can &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOT&lt;/span&gt; afford to provide.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Kevin Eckery, a Sacramento-based GOP political strategist, said all sides are posturing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"At this point, it's clear everyone's just maneuvering," he said. "We're no more going to eliminate welfare in California than we are going dumpster diving for bottles and cans to pay our bills."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately, Kevin Eckery is truth impaired, just like all the politicians in Sacramento (and all other government positions).  California bill AB 32, the Global Warming Final Solution Act is causing all businesses to go dumpster diving to pay their bills.  AB 32 is penalizing all businesses that don't have a "green" solution.  So AB 32 has inspired many businesses and individuals not on welfare to create their own "go green" program.  However, their "go green" program, is to "go to greener" pastures.  The ones that can afford to, are fleeing from California to a state that believes that people who work should be allowed to keep what they earn.  To states that don't believe in being sanctuary states for unemployed criminals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately, once all the businesses and people with money have been driven out of state by the higher fees, taxes, penalties, ... there won't even be any dumpsters to dive into for the bare necessities of life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;On Tuesday, Assembly Speaker John Pérez (D-Los Angeles) tried to frame his plan as the better one for California's beleaguered economy. The governor's proposed cuts, he said, would cost California billions in federal matching money and 430,000 jobs, "further decimating the economy just as we're beginning to recover."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't you just love the truth impaired politicians who fell for Barack Hussein Obama's Brainwash America Tour where B.O. told everyone that the economy has recovered.  Considering that the truth impaired politicians are willing to admit that we have over 10% unemployment, the true figures are probably closer to double that.  Even the government is admitting that most of the jobs that were destroyed, will never come back.  So where is the economic recovery that overpaid and under worked government czars and commissars are talking about?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The Assembly plan centers on raiding the state's recycling fund for the next 20 years and going to Wall Street for an $8.7-billion loan. The state would then levy a nearly 10% oil severance tax to help pay off the loan.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The California politicians think that they can borrow billions from Wall Street?  Why would anyone buy any of the bonds that California would try to sell?  The State of California is winning the national "Race to The Bottom (Bankruptcy)".  The bond rating companies are downgrading the bond ratings of State of California bonds.  Isn't anyone asking what is happening with the billions that the State of California has already borrowed and is unable to pay back?  Isn't anyone asking why the State of California for a short time last year issued IOUs rather than checks?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The Senate Democrats' approach is more straightforward. It would plug roughly a quarter of the state's deficit with tax increases.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The 60% hike on alcohol taxes would bring in $210 million. The vehicle license fee would grow from 1.15% of a vehicle's value to 1.5%. A $220 cut in the dependent-care tax credit would be extended, raising $430 million. A surcharge of 0.25% on personal income taxes, set to expire at the end of 2010, would continue throughout 2011 to bring $1 billion into state coffers.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One thing politicians conveniently ignore, is that as the taxes rise for products, people are less willing to pay the price.  Raise the tax on alcohol, and people will either drink less, or start more home brewing.  Raise the vehicle license fee, and fewer people will buy vehicles.  Raise income taxes to pay out more welfare, and more people will quit working to go on welfare.  Or people will flee from California (like Mexicans are fleeing from Mexico) looking for some place that is not as oppressive and abusive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;A MODEST PROPOSAL&lt;/span&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't you just love the irrational politicians telling the &lt;strike&gt;slaves&lt;/strike&gt; citizens what the ration thing to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me propose another rational plan to balance the budget.  Take all the politicians serving in Sacramento, throw them all in prison for the rest of their lives.  Tell all future politicians that as long as they pretend that the only solution to California's budget problems are higher taxes, then &lt;strike&gt;slaves&lt;/strike&gt; citizens only response is to make the punishment fit the crime and throw them in prison for the rest of their lives.  If we do this long enough, then eventually we will get politicians who will figure out an alternative to bankrupting all the individuals and businesses in California to solve the problem of California going bankrupt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Until then, the politicians will continue voting themselves larger office staffs, larger salaries, larger retirement benefits, more junkets around the world, ... and congratulating themselves for a job well done.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-2434016521275299016?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/2434016521275299016/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/democrats-propose-higher-taxes-and-more.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/2434016521275299016'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/2434016521275299016'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/democrats-propose-higher-taxes-and-more.html' title='Democrats Propose Higher Taxes And More Government To Figure Out Why Government Is So Wasteful And So Big.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-323865043524201674</id><published>2010-05-27T07:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-27T07:27:28.878-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='environment'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economy'/><title type='text'>Obama's Quick Action Prevents Oil From Washing Up On The Beaches On The Gulf Coast.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2010-05-27-Spill-poll_N.htm"&gt;http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2010-05-27-Spill-poll_N.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Is oil spill becoming Obama's Katrina?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes.  Barack Hussein Obama is as much responsible for the oil spill as George W. Bush was responsible for Hurricane Katrina.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Interior Secretary Ken Salazar says the administration has been waging an "all-out, all-hands-on-deck battle to protect the Gulf Coast" and ensure that the British energy giant responsible for the spill cleans it up.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yup.  Just like Barack Hussein Obama saved the economy more than a year ago, B.O. has protected the environment from the oil spill.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The White House, citing a 1990 law that requires oil companies to clean up their messes, says the government is offering help and overseeing the effort — but they're insistent that the cleanup is BP's responsibility.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Which is the perfect excuse for Barack Hussein Obama to do nothing.  Which is what he has been doing a lot of.  But to be honest, Barack Hussein Obama has not been doing nothing, he has just been doing nothing useful.  Barack Hussein Obama has been doing his usual campaigning for political office and blaming the prior administration for not doing anything about the oil spill (or whatever other problem Barack Hussein Obama currently refuses to deal with).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;On May 11, Louisiana requested an emergency permit for the plan from the Army Corps of Engineers that would bypass lengthy environmental impact reviews. Corps and Coast Guard officials have voiced concerns, and the matter is still under review.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't worry.  The environmental impact study to determine if the state of Louisiana should be allowed to prevent the oil spill from washing up on the beaches will be studied for the next 10 years or so to determine if it will have a negative impact on the beaches.  Of course between now and then the oil spill will wash up on the beaches.  Just like Barack Hussein Obama saved the economy last year, Barack Hussein Obama is saving the coastline now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, unless you are on the Barack Hussein Obama payroll, you may not think Barack Hussein Obama saved the economy or the environment.  But that is a burden you will have to live with.  Barack Hussein Obama knows that he is doing a wonderful job, and that all the people love him, so what more could he want?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-323865043524201674?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/323865043524201674/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obamas-quick-action-prevents-oil-from.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/323865043524201674'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/323865043524201674'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obamas-quick-action-prevents-oil-from.html' title='Obama&apos;s Quick Action Prevents Oil From Washing Up On The Beaches On The Gulf Coast.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-8193868002096519455</id><published>2010-05-27T07:00:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-27T07:27:19.309-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='immigration'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oil'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economy'/><title type='text'>Obama Responds To Oil Spill By Asking For Handouts To Help Democrats.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://voices.washingtonpost.com/44/2010/05/obama-raises-money-in-californ.html?wprss=44"&gt;http://voices.washingtonpost.com/44/2010/05/obama-raises-money-in-californ.html?wprss=44&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Obama raises money in California&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nero fiddled while Rome burned.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barack Hussein Obama campaigned for democrats while the oil spill washed up on American shores.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"I said to them, 'I disagree with this Arizona law,' " Obama said, adding that he also told them he understood their frustration over the nation's porous southwestern border.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barack Hussein Obama promised to continue to oppose the Arizona law until he had a chance to read it and confirm that it is as racist as everybody else who hasn't read the law says it is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barack Hussein Obama also commiserated with the alien invaders in Arizona who now face punishment for their crime of illegally crossing the United States border.  Barack Hussein Obama  promised the alien invaders that the legal citizens of Arizona wouldn't benefit from their new law.  Barack Hussein Obama told the legal citizens of Arizona to quit their whining and get back to work and paying taxes so B.O. could appoint more czars, more commissars, and bail out more businesses that are too big to fail.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Obama told the audience Tuesday that the government must "revisit how these oil companies are operating."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barack Hussein Obama promised to have a back room deal finalized in no time with a 2,000+ page bill to reform the oil industry.  After all, it has worked so well for saving the economy and reforming health care, it should work for all the other problems that Barack Hussein Obama is creating in the United States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;With the economy showing signs of life, Obama has said Republicans are asking for the keys to the car back, now that the Democrats have pulled it out of the ditch.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barack Hussein Obama compared the economy to a car that the prior administration has run into a ditch.  He then claimed that the Democrats have pulled the car out of the ditch.  However, as I see it, setting the car on fire, so that it explodes, thus moving itself out of the ditch is not a good long term solution for getting the economy back on track.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seeing as how Barack Hussein Obama is so literary, I think I should use another metaphor for the state of the economy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The current economy is like a dead cat.  If you drop it from high enough, it will bounce.  But that bounce is not a sign of life.  The cat is still dead.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-8193868002096519455?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/8193868002096519455/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obama-responds-to-oil-spill-by-asking.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/8193868002096519455'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/8193868002096519455'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obama-responds-to-oil-spill-by-asking.html' title='Obama Responds To Oil Spill By Asking For Handouts To Help Democrats.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-7093109385554224137</id><published>2010-05-27T06:57:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-27T07:27:11.150-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='employment'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economy'/><title type='text'>Economists Claim Permanently Losing 1/2 Million Jobs Per Week Is Proof Of Economic Recovery.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.businessweek.com/news/2010-05-27/jobless-claims-in-u-s-fell-last-week-to-460-000-update2-.html"&gt;http://www.businessweek.com/news/2010-05-27/jobless-claims-in-u-s-fell-last-week-to-460-000-update2-.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Jobless Claims in U.S. Fell Last Week to 460,000 (Update2)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;More Americans than forecast filed applications for unemployment benefits last week, indicating firings persist even as the economy rebounds and employment picks up.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1/2 a million people filed for unemployment benefits last week.  That is 1/2 a million more than before.  These are jobs that are disappearing permanently.  Never to return.  And economists call this a recovery?  If this is an economic recovery, then I would hate to see an economic disaster.  Although based on the recent economic prognostications, economists may be incapable of recognizing a disaster as long as they are on the government dole.  If you remember the definitions:&lt;br /&gt;- a recession is when your neighbor is unemployed&lt;br /&gt;- a depression is when you are unemployed&lt;br /&gt;So it may well be that according to the great white father, as long as he is employed there will never be a depression in this country.  However, the millions of people who have lost their jobs and continue to lose their jobs might disagree.  The millions of people who are facing losing their homes might disagree.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Stock-index futures trimmed earlier gains following the reports. The contract on the Standard &amp; Poor’s 500 Index rose 2.1 percent to 1,083.3 at 8:51 a.m. in New York. Treasury securities dropped, pushing the yield on the 10-year note up to 3.27 percent from 3.19 percent late yesterday.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I shouldn't be surprised.  When economists quote the stock market to prove that the economy is recovering, you know they are more clueless than the weathermen who claim that global warming has caused the latest cooling streak.  Expecting economists to tell the truth is like expecting Barack Hussein Obama to stop bowing to foreign dictators.  Expecting economists to tell the truth is like expecting Barack Hussein Obama to stop smiling when he listens to foreign dictators when they disparage the United States.  Expecting economists to tell the truth is like expecting Barack Hussein Obama to stop apologizing for being an American.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The number of people receiving unemployment insurance and those getting extended payments declined.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course the number of people receiving unemployment benefits has declined.  Unemployment benefits don't last forever.  At some point benefits run out.  When the unemployment benefits run out, the government stops caring about you.  The government has so much to keep track of, that they can't be bothered to keep track of people who have been unemployed for years and have no hope of every getting hired again.  Besides, it looks good for economists when people fall off the unemployment charts.  If the unemployed are no longer receiving benefits, the government feels relief that they no longer need to count those unemployed as unemployed.  As people age out of the unemployment system, this allows the government to claim that unemployment is down.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-7093109385554224137?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/7093109385554224137/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/economists-claim-permanently-losing-12.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/7093109385554224137'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/7093109385554224137'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/economists-claim-permanently-losing-12.html' title='Economists Claim Permanently Losing 1/2 Million Jobs Per Week Is Proof Of Economic Recovery.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-8126167531491711237</id><published>2010-05-26T07:29:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-26T08:21:38.012-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='immigration'/><title type='text'>Live Female Births Increase Prostitution.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/05/26/AR2010052601200.html"&gt;http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/05/26/AR2010052601200.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Arizona immigration law will boost crime in U.S. cities, police chiefs say&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Arizona's new crackdown on illegal immigration will increase crime in U.S. cities, not reduce it, by driving a wedge between police and immigrant communities, police chiefs from several of the state's and the nation's largest cities said Tuesday.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yup.  Enforcing laws will increase crime.  Therefore, we need to make everything legal.  Rape, murder, burglary, ...  Once there are no more laws, then it will not be possible to break any laws, and therefore, there will be no more crime.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At which point we can dissolve all law enforcement agencies.  At which point, we won't need all the criminal rights groups working to subvert the United States.  Because at that point, there will no longer be the United States.  We will simply be a western version of the totalitarian dictatorships of the eastern block communist countries.  Or we will be the northern version of the brutal and corrupt South American regimes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The new Arizona law will intimidate crime victims and witnesses who are illegal immigrants and divert police from investigating more serious crimes, chiefs from Los Angeles, Houston and Philadelphia said.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More serious crime?  Does that mean that the various law enforcement agencies see an alien invasion as a less serious crime.  There are plenty of other federal crimes that the police state enforces.  Try smoking a marijuana cigarette in a public place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Which brings up the question, which laws are the police state planning on enforcing, and which laws are the police state planning on ignoring?  If the federal and police state get to pick and choose which laws they will enforce, then can I pick and choose which laws I wish to obey?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Currently, federal law makes it a federal crime for an individual, or millions of individuals, to enter this country illegally.  Making a federal crime a state crime doesn't change anything.  Other than allowing the state to enforce a law that the federal government, through corruption, or incompetence refuses to enforce.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The American Civil Liberties Union, Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund and other civil rights groups have filed lawsuits to block the Arizona law, arguing that the Constitution preempts states from enforcing federal law and that the measure will lead to racial profiling.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If enforcing laws that protect American borders from alien invaders leads to racial profiling, then being born female leads to prostitution.  Show me one female prostitute who was not born a woman.  Then being born with a tongue leads to racial slurs.  Show me any racist shouting ethnic slurs who was born without a tongue.  Then going to school causes brain damage.  Show me one criminal rights activist who didn't go to school.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Requiring the Los Angeles Police Department to prioritize the arrest of 400,000 illegal immigrants among the city's 4.1 million residents would "cripple us and make it impossible for us to do our jobs," Beck said.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I understand the police state.  If millions of criminals break the law, the police state should not enforce that law.  However, if hundreds or thousands of people break the law they should be punished.  Arbitrary and capricious enforcement of the laws will lead to more respect for the police state.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Montgomery County Police Chief J. Thomas Manger said directing officers to spend hours investigating the immigration status of every person stopped with a suspect identification card would mean less time to catch violent criminals.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Actually, in California there is no need to catch violent criminals.  In case you haven't heard, California is one of the leaders in the federally inspired program "race to bankruptcy" that is sweeping the nation.  Already California, in a effort to save money has instituted the "catch and release" program for violent felons.  The "catch and release" program requires the state of California to spend millions of dollars to catch and prosecute violent felons.  And then set the violent criminals free without any jail time because the jails are already overflowing with non-violent offenders (jay walkers, pot smokers, ...).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"We understand and agree: Federal immigration law, the whole system, is broken, and that people are very, very frustrated all across this country," Harris said. "But this state law doesn't solve the immigration problems for the country. The solution is here in Washington, D.C., and Congress must step forward and come up with a comprehensive immigration reform that will really solve the problem."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As Washington, District of Criminals (D.C.), and Congress have so ably shown with the passage of the Health Care Deform bill, they are incapable of creating a solution that is &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOT&lt;/span&gt; worse than the problem.  So telling the country to wait few hundred years for Washington, District of Criminals (D.C.), and Congress to solve the alien invasion problem, is like asking someone stuck in quicksand to wait while an investigative committee is formed to study the problem.  It is like politely asking North Korea to stop developing nuclear weapons.  It is like politely asking Iran to stop developing nuclear weapons.  It is like politely asking Muslim Terrorists to stop killing infidels.  It is like politely asking politicians to stop taking bribes and actually do the job they were elected and promised they would do while running for office.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-8126167531491711237?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/8126167531491711237/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/live-female-births-increase.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/8126167531491711237'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/8126167531491711237'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/live-female-births-increase.html' title='Live Female Births Increase Prostitution.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-5188769867849539080</id><published>2010-05-25T08:19:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-25T08:31:24.278-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='literary license'/><title type='text'>What Is The World Coming To When The State Has To Let A Wrongfully Convicted Innocent man Out Of Prison.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.cnn.com/2010/CRIME/05/24/life.after.prison/"&gt;http://www.cnn.com/2010/CRIME/05/24/life.after.prison/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Man wrongfully imprisoned for decades happy to start relearning life&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Meeting 54-year-old James Bain, the one thing that stands out is that the smile never seems to leave his face.

Officials stated that it takes slightly less work to convict an innocent man than a guilty man.  Officials continued explaining that promotions and raises are based on convictions, therefore, more convictions are better for their career.  Officials vowed to not let this minor setback effect their ability to do their jobs.  Officials reiterated their position that there are still plenty of innocent people in prison serving time for crimes they didn't commit.

"The Volt is crucial. So much depends on this car. It cannot fail," the story states.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If so much depends on the success of this car, then Michigan has nothing to worry about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All these years when the auto unions were contributing millions of dollars to the democratic party are finally paying off.  First Bush and then Obama presided over the major bail out of General Motors, and then finally the take over of Government Motors.  So at this point Michigan and Detroit have nothing to worry about.  Government Motors has bribed enough politicians so that is too big to fail.  So even if this new car is so shoddy that no one will buy it, the federal government has promised to buy the car.  In vast quantities.  Even if the car doesn't work.  Which is not as bad as it seems, as very few government employees do any work for the benefit and general welfare of the people of the United States.  So having more employees or equipment on the government books that doesn't work is not unusual.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So rest assured, the Volt will be a smashing success.

The same is true for czars and commissars.  Observe the nonsense that this anonymous henchmen or minion used to mischaracterize this bill.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The "Reduce Unnecessary Spending Act of 2010" would enable the president to submit a package of cuts or "rescissions" to Congress after lawmakers pass one of the annual spending or appropriations bills that fund federal programs every year.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let's translate this into plain English from the liespeak that all politicians and government employees use.  This only applies to the annual federal budget.  This means that it doesn't apply to any "earmarks" or "pork" that gets passed the other 364 days that the legislature passes non-budgetary bills.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Under the terms of the proposal, Congress would have to look at the president's slate of suggested cuts as a package and, without making any amendments, give them an up-or-down vote within a specific period of time.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As with all Barack Hussein Obama recent legislation, this bill allows Barack Hussein Obama to write a multi-thousand page bill that mentions thousands or millions of spending cuts.  While the congress and the senate may pass multi-thousand page spending bills in order to sneak in their pet "earmarks" or "pork", I do NOT believe that the congress and the senate will allow every bodies pet "earmarks" or "pork" to be removed this easily.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another thing to keep in mind.  Most "earmarks" or "pork" bills are for small amounts of money, millions at most.  Do you remember that the recent Health Care Deform bill that was passed will increase federal spending by trillions.  So to put this in perspective.  If the government manages to save a few million while spending trillions more, is like when you lose your house and job, and try to save a few pennies while owing thousands.  A meaningless gesture.  Simply grandstanding.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-8273272660196538700?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/8273272660196538700/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obama-seeks-ways-to-avoid-spending-cuts.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/8273272660196538700'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/8273272660196538700'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obama-seeks-ways-to-avoid-spending-cuts.html' title='Obama Seeks Ways To Avoid Spending Cuts From Bills.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-3922635069685152054</id><published>2010-05-23T07:06:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-23T08:21:15.130-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='health care'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economy'/><title type='text'>Obamacare Health Care Deform And Fvck The Economy Act</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://money.cnn.com/2010/05/21/smallbusiness/1099_deluge/index.htm?source=cnn_bin&amp;hpt=Sbin"&gt;http://money.cnn.com/2010/05/21/smallbusiness/1099_deluge/index.htm?source=cnn_bin&amp;hpt=Sbin&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Stealth IRS changes mean millions of new tax forms&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The massive expansion of requirements for businesses to file 1099 tax forms that was hidden in the 2,409-page health reform bill took many by surprise when it came to light last month.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why is this a surprise to anyone?  The only possible reason why the congress and the senate could have for rushing the passage of the monstrous 2409 page Health Care Deform Bill before any one had a chance to read and understand it, is because they didn't want anyone to find out how little the bill had to do with real reform, and how much was given over to outrageous theft of our freedom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Health Care Deform bill, which Barack Hussein Obama and the rest of the socialist ruling class untruthfully (you lie) proclaimed is so critical for the health care of the nation, is filled with many land mines which are designed to destroy the ability of businesses to make a profit.  If these and other booby traps don't force more businesses to close, they will at least have the beneficial effect of forcing any existing business to raise their prices to pay for the added administrative burden and cost of preparing burdensome paperwork to be allowed to stay in business and provide employment for other citizens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The 1099 changes attached to the health care reform bill are another kettle of fish. These massively expand the requirements for filing the "1099-Misc" form, which companies use for recording payments to freelance workers and other individual service providers. Until now, payments to corporations have been exempt from 1099 rules, as have payments for the purchase of goods.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Starting in 2012, that changes. All business payments or purchases that exceed $600 in a calendar year will need to be accompanied by a 1099 filing. That means obtaining the taxpayer ID number of the individual or corporation you're making the payment to -- even if it's a giant retailer like Staples or Best Buy -- at the time of the transaction, or else facing IRS penalties.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some people might ask, what does filing hundreds of additional forms have do with Health Care Deform.  The correct answer is, much like all the other provisions hidden in the Health Care Deform bill, nothing.  Just part of the hidden government power grab that will require the government to hire thousands of additional Infernal Revenue Service (I.R.S.) agents to handle the hundreds / thousands / millions of additional forms that businesses will be required to file for the privilege of working to pay more of their hard earned money to the government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;How did this sweeping provision end up hidden in the health reform bill?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Easy.  Since the entire legislative body was discouraged from reading and understanding the contents of the Health Care Deform bill, these and other riders were tacked onto a bill that couldn't fail, for a country that doesn't want to succeed.  But the real question is, how many more tax increases and business killing provisions were buried in the Health Care Deform act.  The governments answer, is pass the bill and find out.  Unfortunately for the citizens of the United States, we are just beginning to find out how grievously the federal government has trampled the freedom and prosperity of the citizens of the United States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Henschke's group had previously surveyed its members and learned that they average 10 filings a year of 1099 forms, each of which takes about half an hour to prepare. That's in line with the GAO report, which found that a typical small business spent between three and five hours per year filing 1099s.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But SMC's survey found that extending 1099s just to services purchased from corporations would push that number to at least 200 filings per year for a typical small business -- adding an estimated $6,000 to the cost of preparing the average tax return. And that's without even accounting for the requirement that 1099s be filed for purchases of goods, a provision that Henschke's group didn't see coming when it conducted its survey last year.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let's try to put this into perspective.  The federal government (low) estimates are that it takes 1/2 an hour to prepare 1 1099.  The average small business will go from preparing 10 1099s, taking about 5 hours to prepare, to preparing 200 1099s taking about 100 hours to prepare.  At 40 hours per week, that means that 2 1/2 weeks per year will be spent preparing paperwork.  This is just for the 1099s.  All the hours and days to prepare and file other government required paperwork is still required.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I think I am beginning to see what the government has in mind.  And the real solution the government is looking for.  Some day, in the not so distant future, all businesses will be shut down, and the former owners will be required to spend all the rest of their days filling out paperwork explaining why they were in business, why they closed the business, why they hired people to work, ... why they should be allowed to continue to live and pollute the planet with their carbon dioxide pollution from their breathing.  Everybody else will be a government employee, armed and dangerous, going door to door, shutting down all businesses.  After all, how dare any business sully the pristine workers paradise that Barack Hussein Obama and the rest of the socialist ruling class is creating for all the rest of us.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-3922635069685152054?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/3922635069685152054/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obamacare-health-care-deform-and-fvck.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/3922635069685152054'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/3922635069685152054'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obamacare-health-care-deform-and-fvck.html' title='Obamacare Health Care Deform And Fvck The Economy Act'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-3760191021512167642</id><published>2010-05-23T07:05:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-23T08:21:00.761-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='social security'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economy'/><title type='text'>How To Save Social Security And Destroy The Country.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://finance.yahoo.com/news/12-Ways-to-Fix-Social-usnews-522214004.html?x=0"&gt;http://finance.yahoo.com/news/12-Ways-to-Fix-Social-usnews-522214004.html?x=0&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;12 Ways to Fix Social Security&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The Social Security program faces a long term financing shortfall. The trust fund's reserves are currently projected to cover payments until the end of 2037. Then there will only be sufficient resources to pay about three quarters of scheduled benefits. For full checks to be issued after that date the program's financing or benefit structure must be modified.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What trust fund?  What reserves?  There are no Social Security trust funds or Social Security reserves.  Everything that is paid into Social Security, is immediately paid out for Social Security.  If there is anything left over, the federal government transfers the funds to another department where it can be immediately spent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After close analysis of the 12 ways to save Social Security, I was able to condense them down to 2 ways.  When you put them both together, this is government brainpower at it's best.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Increase taxes.&lt;br /&gt;This is brilliant.  If you make Social Security tax 200% of earnings, then the amount of money the government pretends to hold for Social Security would increase very rapidly.  In no time at all, the government would have plenty of surplus funds to spend on increased salaries and retirement benefits for the government flunkies and drones who are all exempt from Social Security.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Decrease benefits.&lt;br /&gt;This is brilliant.  All you need to do is cancel &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;ALL&lt;/span&gt; benefits.  If there are no benefits, there is no payouts.  If there are no payouts, the government won't fall short of funds earmarked for Social Security.  In no time at all, the government would have plenty of surplus funds to spend on increased salaries and retirement benefits for the government flunkies and drones who are all exempt from Social Security.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, there are a couple of drawbacks to this genius government plan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If Social Security taxes are increased to 200%, or even 150% or 100% of peoples salaries, people might realize that it makes more sense to quit their jobs and go on government welfare because you would get more money than from working.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the federal government stops paying out Social Security benefits, people might realize that it makes more sense to quit their jobs and go on government welfare because you would never be able to retire if you depend on the government Social Security system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There you have it.  The solution to Social Security.  Everybody will stop working and go on welfare.  No more Social Security problem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There might be a welfare problem.  But with the same genius used to solve the Social Security problem, I am sure the government will come with an equally intelligent solution to the welfare problem.  Maybe the United States can use the same solution that Mexico is using for their economic problems.  Destroy enough of the economy, and millions of citizens will flee the country looking for better opportunities.  When everyone flees the country, you will have fewer people living off of welfare.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-3760191021512167642?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/3760191021512167642/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/how-to-save-social-security-and-destroy.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/3760191021512167642'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/3760191021512167642'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/how-to-save-social-security-and-destroy.html' title='How To Save Social Security And Destroy The Country.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-6212777289132491699</id><published>2010-05-23T07:04:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-23T08:20:51.108-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='hypocrisy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='incompetence'/><title type='text'>DeKalb County Exonerates Firefighters For Letting Woman Burn To Death.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.ajc.com/news/dekalb/dunwoody-fire-victims-family-508686.html"&gt;http://www.ajc.com/news/dekalb/dunwoody-fire-victims-family-508686.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Dunwoody fire victim's family sues DeKalb&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Ann Bartlett called 911 minutes after 1 a.m. on Jan. 24 to report she had “set the house on fire with the thing from my nose,” referring to an oxygen concentrator she used when she slept. But the phone went dead during that call.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Engines 12 and 18 and truck 18 pulled up at the 1600 block of Houghton Court North 12 minutes later but they all left when firefighters saw no signs of a blaze. Five hours later, after a neighbor called, firefighters returned to find the home engulfed.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DeKalb County investigated, and found nothing wrong with letting a fire burn out of control and kill a woman.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are you surprised?  I am not surprised.  This happens all the time.  The government does something outrageously bad.  The government investigates their own work.  The government then finds that the offending agency followed the rules exactly.

That means pools owned and operated by the government.  That means you have a 12.5% chance of getting some kind of disease causing germ if you swim in a public pool.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You would probably be safer running down the center of the highway.

So, much like every speech that Barack Hussein Obama has ever made, Mexican President Felipe Calderón's speech did not contain any truth.  Which means that Mexican President Felipe Calderón's speech was 100% lies.  In fact, Mexican President Felipe Calderón's speech was so full of lies, I was wondering if he had been coached by Barack Hussein Obama on what to say.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The new Arizona anti-alien invasion law simply says, that state, city and local police are now required to enforce the federal law.  (Barack Hussein Obama and his gang of czars and commissars are all 100% against the Arizona law, and are very proud of having never even read or understood the Arizona or the federal law.)  What Mexican President Felipe Calderón conveniently ignores, is that Mexico ruthlessly enforces their anti-immigration laws in ways that all third world dictatorships and dictator supporters and dictator wannabes (Barack Hussein Obama) applaud.  What the hypocrites in California (and the rest of the United States) choose to ignore, is that California has the same law on their books.  But since most California politicians (and most democrats and socialists) are used to breaking the law with immunity from prosecution, they tend to forget what laws are currently on the books or even what having laws is all about.  Let's think about that for a moment.  Millions of Mexican citizens are illegally leaving Mexico.  Try to think about millions of American citizens fleeing the United States into Mexico or Canada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Continuing on with his lies, Mexican President Felipe Calderón complained about the United States refusal to ban assault weapons.  Again this conveniently ignores reality.  Most of the assault weapons in the hands of the Mexican drug gangs were given to gangsters by the Mexican government.  Actually, to be more honest than Mexican President Felipe Calderón and Barack Hussein Obama combined, the corrupt, ruthless Mexican government has an army.  Most of the people who join the army, quit and join the drug cartels as soon as they are issued assault weapons.  Let's think about that for a moment.  Try to think about thousands of American citizens joing the army, and quitting to join the mafia after being issued assault weapons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;A Democratic plan, unveiled April 29, would create a path to citizenship for most of the estimated 10.8 million people who are in this country illegally now and would provide stronger security along the U.S.-Mexican border. The security features are aimed at wooing Republicans, who have said that security is their top priority.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Path to citizenship?  I am glad to know that any time Osama Bin Laden and any other Muslim terrorist who learns to speak Spanish and manages to sneak across the United States border has a clear shot at becoming a United States citizen without having to worry about anyone questioning their past.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since when has allowing invading aliens provided any country with stronger security for the nation being invaded?  I can see how Mexico likes the American amnesty plan.  Most corrupt and brutal regimes are concerned when millions of their citizens manage to flee to foreign countries.  Fortunately for Mexico, they have a good friend in the United States.  Mexico knows that the United States is in the process of becoming the exact same corrupt and brutal regime that Mexico already is.  So Mexico knows that the millions fleeing their country will soon be no better off then before they illegally fled their homeland.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although I do wonder.  Has giving amnesty to millions of illegal aliens in past been what caused the strong borders that the United States currently has?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-3475598371475985553?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/3475598371475985553/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/mexican-nationals-and-democratic.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/3475598371475985553'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/3475598371475985553'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/mexican-nationals-and-democratic.html' title='Mexican Nationals And Democratic Traitors Gave Mexican President Calderon A Standing Ovation At The Joint Session Of Congress.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-424236627603895638</id><published>2010-05-21T07:03:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-21T07:46:29.873-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='employment'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economy'/><title type='text'>The American Economy Is Recovering Like A Chicken With It's Head Cut Off Is Recovering.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703559004575256112299027150.html"&gt;http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703559004575256112299027150.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Jobless Claims Increase&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;In a troubling sign for the U.S. labor market, the number of workers filing new claims for unemployment benefits unexpectedly surged last week to wipe out most of the recent declines.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No need to worry.  If a Muslim terrorist sneaking a bomb on board an airplane is proof that our increased security is working, then the growing number of unemployed people is proof that the economy is recovering.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The Labor Department said in its weekly report Thursday that initial claims for jobless benefits rose by 25,000 to 471,000 in the week ended May 15. Economists who were surveyed by Dow Jones Newswires had predicted claims would fall by 4,000.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All economists that ever hope to get a government job, or a government grant, are unable to predict anything other than an improving economy.  So it should come as no surprise that the economists are shocked that unemployment is on the rise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The previous week's level was revised upward as well, to 446,000 from 444,000.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It should also come as no surprise that the government is continually revising prior positive growth figures to more accurately reflect the negative dying economy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Total claims lasting more than one week, meanwhile, fell.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course the government has to try to lie about something to prove the economy is improving.  But proclaiming that the increasing number of people on long term unemployment is decreasing, without mentioning that the decrease is because the decreasing numbers are from people who's unemployment benefits have run out is government dishonesty at it's best.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Only four of the 10 leading indicators increased in April. The most positive indicators were the interest rate spread and stock prices.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However the price of stock has absolutely nothing to do with the economy.  For those who have forgotten the recent sub prime mortgage disaster, that was a case of people paying inflated prices on worthless paper.  And since interest rates are set by the Federal Reserve Bank, they again have nothing to with the economy at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Which means that two of the 10 leading indicators still show an improved economy.  Which means that only 80% of the indicators show a dying economy.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obviously we have nothing to worry about.  The government is on the case and fixing the economy.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-424236627603895638?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/424236627603895638/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/american-economy-is-recovering-like.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/424236627603895638'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/424236627603895638'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/american-economy-is-recovering-like.html' title='The American Economy Is Recovering Like A Chicken With It&apos;s Head Cut Off Is Recovering.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-309558587849646032</id><published>2010-05-21T07:02:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-21T07:46:19.008-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='politics'/><title type='text'>Reporters Surprised At Hatred Directed Towards All Politicians.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.californiabeat.org/2010/05/20/whitman-plummets-in-poll-as-public-pummels-politicians-in-sacramento"&gt;http://www.californiabeat.org/2010/05/20/whitman-plummets-in-poll-as-public-pummels-politicians-in-sacramento&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Whitman plummets in poll as public pummels politicians in Sacramento&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Disapproval of Sacramento politicians at record highs&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The 2010 election comes in a year in which voter disapproval of state politicians is higher than ever. 23 percent of adults surveyed in the poll — a record low — approve of Schwarzenegger’s performance as governor, while 65 percent — a record high — disapprove.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And while the state legislature’s approval ratings recovered slightly from a record low in March, they’re nothing to gloat about either — only 16 percent of adults approve of the legislature’s performance, while 72 percent disapprove. Likely voters are even more likely to disapprove than the population at large, with 80 percent disapproving of the legislature’s performance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Voters’ expectations for cooperation between the governor and legislature to solve problems such as the state’s continuing budget crisis are also at all-time lows — only 19 percent of adults expect the governor and legislature to “work together and accomplish a lot this year,” as opposed to 73 percent who expect otherwise.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who would have ever thought that business as usual (for politicians this means bribery, corruption, infighting, raising taxes, reprehensible legislation that harms the citizens, ...) would cause citizens to fear and hate all politicians.  Obviously not politicians, or they might change their ways.  But law abiding citizens capable of learning and change are NOT the kind of people who run for political office or seek to work for the government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what does the state of California have to look forward to?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a sanctuary state for indigents and criminals, we can look forward to more indigents and criminals moving to California.  As the indigents and criminals move in, the employers and employees will move out of the state.  As the indigents and criminals move in, we can look forward to higher welfare and other benefit payments for non-workers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As California continues spending more than it can loot and pillage from the remaining employers and employees, we can look forward to bankruptcy, and discontinuation of services that are critical to survival of our society.  As California continues spending more than it can loot and pillage from the remaining employers and employees, we can look forward to employers and employees moving out of state.  As the state of California increases taxes to make up for the lower collections, even more employers and employees will move out of state.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We already are seeing that one of the ways the politicians have figured out to save money is to release violent felons early.  This again encourages criminals to move into California, and law abiding citizens to flee the state.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another way the hypocritical politicians are looking at saving money is starting an economic war with states (Arizona, maybe others in the future) that prefer to go down fighting rather than looking for one last spending splurge.  Please note that the Los Angeles City Council has &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOT&lt;/span&gt; decided to stop the wasteful junkets to other cities around the country to hold meetings, they are only moving their wasteful junkets to other vacation cities around the country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Net savings or benefits to the City of Los Angeles for their reprehensible actions?  Nothing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Downside?  The contempt from 70% of the legal population of the United States, and possible boycotts of California from the 70% of the population and other states contemplating ways to save their states from the onslaught of alien invaders.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yup.  Career politicians are doing a job.  Unfortunately, it is &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOT&lt;/span&gt; the job the politicians lied to get and it is &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOT&lt;/span&gt; the job that voters thought the politicians would do once elected.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-309558587849646032?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/309558587849646032/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/reporters-surprised-at-hatred-directed.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/309558587849646032'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/309558587849646032'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/reporters-surprised-at-hatred-directed.html' title='Reporters Surprised At Hatred Directed Towards All Politicians.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-4784029194808989224</id><published>2010-05-21T07:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-21T07:45:33.113-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='politics'/><title type='text'>Republicans Attempt To Prove That Democrats Don't Have A Monopoly On Supporting Corrupt Incompetent Politicians.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://nymag.com/daily/intel/2010/05/man_with_second_family_given_s.html"&gt;http://nymag.com/daily/intel/2010/05/man_with_second_family_given_s.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Congressman With Second Family Given Second Chance&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Vito Fossella, the family-values Republican congressman whose 2008 DUI arrest in Virginia led to the discovery of a mistress and love child, has been nominated for his old seat by the GOP executive committee by a resounding 23–4 vote.

By junk science, I mean outright deception and fraud.  Today, any reputable (honest) scientist who has studied marijuana knows that occasional marijuana use is less harmful to the individual and society than occasional use of alcohol or tobacco (both of which are legal).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back in the 1930s when the racist media and the racist politicians passed their insane anti-marijuana laws, very few people smoked marijuana. And of the few that did smoke marijuana, most were  minorities.  After passage of the anti-marijuana laws, a whole new law enforcement agency, complete with weapons and contempt for the citizens started operation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before the anti-marijuana laws, the United States had the smallest number of criminals, the smallest number of prisons and the smallest number of armed thugs watching their citizens of any country on the planet.  After the passage and enforcement of the anti-marijuana laws, the United States boasts the largest number of criminals, the largest number of prisons, and the largest number of armed thugs who are above the law and able to destroy citizens lives as well as create contempt for the corrupt government that enforces an irrational law.  In fact, with the current budget problems, the government has has chosen to release violent criminals rather than release non-violent marijuana smokers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before the anti-marijuana laws, marijuana was grown by small numbers of individual growers or by the individuals who smoked.  After passage of the anti-marijuana laws, entire countries (Mexico, Columbia, ...) have devoted their whole economy to growing marijuana.  In fact, if you look at the Forbes 500 wealthiest men, you will now find drug lords on that list.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So you don't need to be worried that the government will start taking a rational approach to the drug problem (or any other problem).  You can rest assured that the government will continue to create any crisis that it can in their eternal quest to grab more power and to increase the size of government and to oppress the people that they claim to represent.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-3588030248011718182?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/3588030248011718182/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/100-of-politicians-refuse-to-act.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/3588030248011718182'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/3588030248011718182'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/100-of-politicians-refuse-to-act.html' title='100% Of Politicians Refuse To Act Responsibly Or Listen To The Voice Of The People.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-3949499157493440597</id><published>2010-05-20T07:04:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-20T07:31:01.497-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='boycott'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='los angeles'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arizona'/><title type='text'>Hypocrite L.A.

Facing pressure at home, Calderon took on the law directly Wednesday, saying it encourages discrimination. He called for the U.S. and Mexico to work together to solve the complex, politically sensitive immigration issue.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mexican President Felipe Calderon recently met with Barack Hussein Obama.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mexican President Felipe Calderon called Barack Hussein Obama a racist thug, a capitalist pig and a warmonger.  Barack Hussein Obama responded with a low bow, a big smile and a handshake and announced that this was an important moment that two world leaders such as themselves could get along so well.  Barack Hussein Obama then whispered in the ear of President Calderon that while Michele Obama didn't like the United States until B.O. was elected, B.O. stated that he still doesn't like the United States or any of the residents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mexican President Felipe Calderon continued his diatribe against Barack Hussein Obama and the United States.  Mexican President Felipe Calderon blames Barack Hussein Obama for the horrible economic conditions in Mexico that have caused millions of peons to flee the peoples utopia of Mexico for the racist hellhole of the United States.  Mexican President Felipe Calderon stated that the United State is racist for discriminating against alien invaders.  He continued that in Mexico they don't do anything as extreme as asking for papers.  They just throw alien invaders in prison and throw away the key.  Trials are not necessary, as any gringo that wants to bribe his way out of prison has the freedom to do so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The onion.com was quoted as saying that if I "ever attempt to write a humorous article again, they will have my literary license revoked."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-6812420151370819750?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/6812420151370819750/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obama-agrees-with-calderon-united.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/6812420151370819750'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/6812420151370819750'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obama-agrees-with-calderon-united.html' title='Obama Agrees With Calderon, United States Has No Right To Regulation Immigration.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-7078271908362027561</id><published>2010-05-20T07:02:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-20T07:30:40.637-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='literary license'/><title type='text'>Students Protest Invasion Of Privacy.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.foxnews.com/printer_friendly_story/0,3566,593176,00.html"&gt;http://www.foxnews.com/printer_friendly_story/0,3566,593176,00.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Berkeley Students Asked to Submit DNA Samples&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;For the first time, school officials will be including cotton swabs for a DNA test, KTVU.com reported. The students will be asked to voluntarily submit a DNA sample, which one professor said will ultimately help students make decisions about their diet and lifestyle.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An anonymous student was interviewed about the change in school policy that requires students to provide their DNA to the school to be able to attend the school.  The anonymous student is quoted as saying there is nothing wrong legal citizens of the United States having to provide the state with D.N.A. samples, fingerprints, a birth certificate, or any other form of ID in order to attend school.  This is not an invasion of privacy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The anonymous student then complained about the ancestry and intelligence of the reporter.  In the middle of berating the reporter for a complete lack of understanding the situation, the student said he was late for an appointment.  It seems the anonymous student had to rush off to a demonstration in support of alien invaders.  The student didn't want to be late, as most of the firebombs and breaking of store windows are planned for early in the demonstration.  It seems that any alien invader who is caught committing a crime should not be question about any other crime, including the crime of invading the United States.  To do so is racist, and an infringement on the freedom and rights of the alien invaders.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The onion.com was quoted as saying that if I "ever attempt to write a humorous article again, they will have my literary license revoked."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-7078271908362027561?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/7078271908362027561/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/students-protest-invasion-of-privacy.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/7078271908362027561'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/7078271908362027561'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/students-protest-invasion-of-privacy.html' title='Students Protest Invasion Of Privacy.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-4960701717452153828</id><published>2010-05-20T07:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-20T07:30:29.203-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='incompetence'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='corruption'/><title type='text'>The L.A.

The loss was a complete surprise to Barack Hussein Obama who is currently employed destroying jobs and the economy.  Barack Hussein Obama and his press corps (which include all mass media outlets) castigated the American public for not supporting his scorched earth policy.  Barack Hussein Obama, through his press corps, explained once again that he cannot remake the United States into the socialist workers paradise that he was elected to do until he has rubbed out any last vestige of capitalism and freedom.  Barack Hussein Obama once again complained that because the founding fathers didn't put anything in the constitution or the bill of rights about sharing the wealth, this makes his job that much harder.  Barack Hussein Obama once again complained that the prior leaders of this freedom loving capitalist country didn't do anywhere near enough to restrict freedom and capitalism.  In spite of all the hardships he is encountering, Barack Hussein Obama still believes that the United States can become the workers paradise that North Korea is.

But they need to put on a good show for the mass media.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;On May 14, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger released his May revision for the 2010-2011 State Budget. In this latest revision, the governor estimates a $19.1 billion general fund deficit, including a $1.2 billion reserve.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some people might think that spending more than you have is a problem.  However, the federal government has determined that spending more than you have will save the economy.  So the State of California seems determined to recklessly follow the federal governments' advice.  So the State of California is planning on going deeper and deeper in debt.  But you don't worry.  The State of California can always sell bonds to the uneducated who believe that the State of California may actually balance the budget and spend less than they collect in taxes at some time in the future.   Just because the State of California has refused to spend less than they collected in taxes, and have done so since the State of California became a state, is no reason to believe that a miracle can't happen and the State of California will suddenly elect statesmen instead of criminals intent on looting the citizens of their hard earned money.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Governor Schwarzenegger proposes resolving the state budget deficit through reduced spending ($12.4 billion), additional federal funds ($3.4 billion), and new fund shifts and fees ($3.4 billion). In unveiling his proposal, the governor declared that there is "no more low-hanging fruit", that we must "shake the tree."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Heck.  At this point, the governor is even willing to cut down the tree to balance the budget.  After all, the governor can't run for office again, so it won't be his problem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;In response to the governor's May revision, Senate President Pro Tempore Darrell Steinberg (D-Sacramento) called the proposal a "non-starter" and stated that the Senate would not pass a budget that eliminates CalWORKS-California's social welfare program.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The democrats won't pass any budget that calls for a reduction in spending.  However, in the spirit of bipartisanship that the federal denizens of Washington District of Criminals (D.C.) have shown, the state democrats are willing to show their dedication to fiscal concerns by raising taxes on anything that moves or exhibits any form of life that isn't a pet project of any politician.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-3183731892058924358?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/3183731892058924358/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/governor-calls-for-decreased-spending.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/3183731892058924358'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/3183731892058924358'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/governor-calls-for-decreased-spending.html' title='Governor Calls For Decreased Spending.

Even though California has been harder hit by the "great depression" than most other states, most government workers have demanded and continue to receive larger than average salaries and benefits rather than adjust to the fact that they are running out of taxpaying citizens to fund their lavish lifestyles.  Most government workers continue to get raises and benefits increases most citizen lose their jobs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The government lackeys &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;ONLY&lt;/span&gt; care about providing increasing care and benefits for alien invaders.  It is against federal law to harbor fugitives from federal crimes, but the state, along with most cities have announced that they will be safe havens for any criminal that chooses to invade this country and demand the rights that are denied to the average citizen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The government lackeys &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;ONLY&lt;/span&gt; care about breaking federal and state laws.  The State of California has on the books a law that says &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;ALL&lt;/span&gt; law enforcement officials will assist the federal government in capturing and holding alien invaders.  Some of the cites have announced that they are sanctuary cities for the criminal invaders.  Some of the cities have passed laws making it a crime to assist the federal government to detain criminal invaders.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The government lackeys &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;ONLY&lt;/span&gt; care about destroying the economy of California. The government lackeys claim it is good for the environment.  But how can causing businesses to flee the state be good for the environment or the economy?  How can causing businesses that can't afford to flee the state to fire employees be good for the environment or the economy?  How can all these moves to reduce the tax base of the state at the same time the cities and state are actively encouraging criminal invaders without jobs to relocate to California be good for the environment or the economy?  How can starting an economic war against Arizona be good for the environment or the economy?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-5196616603794723229?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/5196616603794723229/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/arizona-leads-way-to-boycott-california.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/5196616603794723229'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/5196616603794723229'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/arizona-leads-way-to-boycott-california.html' title='Arizona Leads The Way To Boycott California And Other States That Provide Sanctuary For Alien Invaders.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-4154862529838894437</id><published>2010-05-18T07:41:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-18T07:47:12.291-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='health care'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economy'/><title type='text'>Obamacare Success Story.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100518/ap_on_bi_ge/us_pfizer_restructuring"&gt;http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100518/ap_on_bi_ge/us_pfizer_restructuring&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Pfizer to trim 6,000 jobs, shut 8 plants worldwide&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pfizer prepares for the Health Care Deform bill by buying competitors and shutting them down.

In most months, the government can't be sure whether starts increased or decreased. In April, for instance, the standard error for starts was plus or minus 13%. Large revisions are common.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Actually, the government should have cautioned that &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;ALL&lt;/span&gt; its monthly data are volatile and subject to large sampling and other statistical errors.  After all, who wants the government to tell the truth when the truth is so depressing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So here is my explanation of how it really works.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The government employs vast armies of economists and scientists to generate false data.  This keeps the criminals off the streets and helps with the employment numbers.  Although the government lies about both the crime rate and the employment rate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fraudulent numbers help the government brainwash the public into believing that the government is actually aware that something is going on.  Not that the government cares.  The government will do whatever it wants to do, whether the public approves or not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the government is aware that something is wrong, then the government must be doing something to fix it.  Unfortunately for the public, the government is actually doing the opposite of what it claims it is doing.  The government is doing their best to extend the great depression that we are currently in the middle of.  This allows the government to grab more power and pretend that it is for the good of the country.  So every time the government does something to extend the great depression, they claim that what they are doing is working, but we need more government intervention to fix the problem.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-5396420129537764670?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/5396420129537764670/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/economy-is-recovering-based-on-numbers.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/5396420129537764670'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/5396420129537764670'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/economy-is-recovering-based-on-numbers.html' title='Economy Is Recovering.

Mr. Holder said that Mr. al-Awlaki "has a version of Islam that is not consistent with the teachings of [the faith]."  Mr. Holder did not go into details to back up his assertion that Mr. al-Awlaki, an Islamic scholar, is somehow at odds with his own faith, nor did he pinpoint exactly what Muslim teachings he was referring to.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. is the newest Barack Hussein Obama minion / henchman to convert to Islam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. had a difficult time during questioning before the House Judiciary Committee.  Even though the master mind of the terrorist attacks, and all the participants are Muslims, Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. maintained his cool while covering up the involvement of Muslims in all three of the recent attacks.  As a loyal flunky of the Muslim administration, he also refrained from calling any of these terrorist attacks, terrorist attacks.  The current administration prefers that Muslim terrorist attacks be miscategorized as "man-caused" disasters.

We will soon need the nipple police to go door to door and inspect teen aged girls nipples to make sure they aren't pierced.  Since teen aged girls aren't to be trusted, they will need their nipples inspected on a regular basis.  Considering how serious this problem is (after all the lawmakers are planning on outlawing this), then maybe we could use this law to balance the budget as well.  Instead of hiring people out of public taxes, we could let middle aged men bid to pay for the privilege of inspecting teen aged girls nipples.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isn't America wonderful?

It lost that status last year because the manufacturer had declined to pay to re-test and re-register the product, Christman said.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The E.P.A.

(Environmental Pandering Agency) must protect parasites that survive by living off the residents of this country (like every agency of the federal government as well as the federal government itself), they have decided that banning the only cheap and effective pesticide is in the best interests of the federal government and the bedbugs (but &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOT&lt;/span&gt; in the best interest of the citizens of the United States).  And just like the Securities and Exchange Commission prevented the economic meltdown and the Minerals Management Service prevented the massive oil spill, the Environmental Protection Agency will do their best to do what they were created to do.  Which is to look the other way if they are paid their regulatory fees.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any company that gets fed up with bureaucratic corruption and incompetence and refuses to pay the bribe required to get the E.P.A.

Judges could delay the punishment to parents as an incentive to get their children to class.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The idiots in Sacramento, have decide to try to do something (horribly wrong) to try to get young students to attend school more regularly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me see if it is possible to understand the twisted, warped logic (if you can call it that) that the politicians used to come up with this bill.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It looks to me like the same logic that the politicians use to allows big business to sell cigarettes, but makes it illegal for the purchasers to smoke cigarettes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are a few facts that we should keep in mind while considering this problem (evidently facts that politicians are incapable of considering).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;California (and the United States) is in the middle of the "great depression".  The State of California doesn't have enough money to keep violent felons in jail.  As part of their balance the budget, California is setting free violent felons to terrorize the citizens into paying higher taxes.  The unemployment rate is higher than 10%.  If you count the underemployed and the unemployed so long they no longer look for work or no longer get unemployment benefits, the unemployment rate is higher than 20%.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So in an effort to get young students to stop missing school, single parents will be fined $2,000 that they don't have.  How you may ask, will this help young students to stop missing school?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Placing a large fine on someone who already is having problems paying their monthly bills will help convince the parent to stop working and go on government assistance.  If you have no job, then you have no money for the government to steal with their higher fines, fees, taxes, ...  This is part of the government's plan to make everyone a criminal, and thus to assess fines, fees, taxes to help balance the budget.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So in an effort to get young students to stop missing school, single parents will be throw in prison.  How you may ask, will this help young students to stop missing school?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While the parent has been rotting in prison for a year, the child or children have been placed in foster care.  Children in the foster care system have a higher than average death rate then children outside the foster care system.  So it is possible that if more children die, the statistics for absenteeism will be lower because of the fewer number of children still alive to attend school.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the child or children are not killed by the foster care system, then at the very least they will have been traumatized so much that they are more likely to become criminals.  And thus the overburdened state, will have even more crime to deal with then they are currently willing to deal with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What do you think will happen when the parent, in a single parent home is thrown in prison for a year?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After rotting in prison for a year, the parent is likely to be unemployed, and because of the "great depression" unemployable.  So they will now go on welfare or some other assistance program paid for by the dwindling number of employed people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And there you have it.  The forward thinking that has made the Soviet Union, Cuba, North Korea the great countries that they have become.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-1235367308434525961?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/1235367308434525961/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/california-have-child-go-to-prison.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/1235367308434525961'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/1235367308434525961'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/california-have-child-go-to-prison.html' title='California:  Have A Child, Go To Prison.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-697037495136425155</id><published>2010-05-14T07:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-20T00:25:06.059-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='literary license'/><title type='text'>Top Senators Introduce Incomprehensible Energy Bill.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.cnn.com/2010/POLITICS/05/12/senate.energy.bill/"&gt;http://www.cnn.com/2010/POLITICS/05/12/senate.energy.bill/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Top senators introduce comprehensive energy bill&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;On climate change, the 987-page bill seeks escalating reductions in greenhouse gas emissions in coming decades that match the levels set as goals by the Obama administration and contained in a separate House energy bill passed last year. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Senators John Kerry, D-Massachusetts, and Joe Lieberman, an independent from Connecticut held a press conference where they praised Barack Hussein Obama for making the 2,400 page Health Care Deform bill the most incomprehensible bill ever proposed, supported and passed by any politician.  The partners in crime (Kerry and Lieberman) also praised Speaker Nancy Pelosi (“But we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it, ...") for doing her part to convince politicians that their job is &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOT&lt;/span&gt; to understand what they vote for.  In fact, their job is to vote for bills they don't understand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Keeping this in mind, the partners in crime (Kerry and Lieberman) were modest about their own 987 page bill to destroy the economy and the environment.  The partners in crime (Kerry and Lieberman) figured that whether their bill was more or less comprehensible than the Health Care Deform bill, it wouldn't matter as long as it was half as many pages.  And at 987 pages (less than half the number of pages of the Health Care Deform Bill), no politician will have time to read the bill much less understand it.  So the partners in crime (Kerry and Lieberman) have high hopes that their bill would be twice as likely to pass.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now all the partners in crime (Kerry and Lieberman) need is the Barack Hussein Obama propaganda machine to lie about the contents and the effect of the bill and they will have an easy time passing this obamnation of a bill.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The onion.com was quoted as saying that if I "ever attempt to write a humorous article again, they will have my literary license revoked."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-697037495136425155?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/697037495136425155/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/top-senators-introduce-incomprehensible.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/697037495136425155'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/697037495136425155'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/top-senators-introduce-incomprehensible.html' title='Top Senators Introduce Incomprehensible Energy Bill.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-2822174832043863253</id><published>2010-05-13T07:08:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-13T09:47:22.364-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='immigration'/><title type='text'>Los Angeles City Council Stands Up For Alien Invaders Rights.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.latimes.com/news/custom/topofthetimes/callocal/la-me-0513-arizona-boycott-20100513,0,5835670,print.story"&gt;http://www.latimes.com/news/custom/topofthetimes/callocal/la-me-0513-arizona-boycott-20100513,0,5835670,print.story&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;L.A. council bans most official travel to Arizona&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Members, arguing that the new immigration law could lead to racial profiling, also vote to bar future city contracts with companies in that state.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paying politicians to work, could lead to bribery.  However, that doesn't seem to concern the corrupt incompetent idiots who are wasting the time and money of the City of Los Angeles in poorly thought out legislation designed to appease the alien invaders and hurt legitimate legal citizens of the State of Arizona.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Council members argued that a new Arizona law, which will make it a state crime to lack immigration papers and requires police to determine whether people they stop are in the country illegally, would lead to racial profiling and discrimination.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All modern criminals and drug addicts started out drinking their mothers milk.  So, because any child that starts their life by drinking their mothers milk could become a criminal, we should make it a crime to breastfeed children.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The State of Arizona passed a law making it legal for the state police to enforce the federal anti-alien invasion laws.  Since the City Council of Los Angeles is effectively objecting to the State of Arizona enforcing the federal law, I have to wonder what the City Council of Los Angeles are really thinking?  Does the City Council of Los Angeles want federal law enforcement officials on every street corner enforcing the federal alien invasion laws?  Or does the City Council of Los Angeles want any well armed and well stocked invading army to have the right to cross the United States borders and occupy whatever land they want?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;During a morning-long debate on the resolution, council members compared Arizona's action to those of Nazi Germany and the beginning of the Holocaust, as well as the internment and deportation of Japanese Americans during World War II.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is a good thing that most of the City Council are stupid, barely literate graduates of the public education system, or they would be unable to mischaracterize the Arizona anti-alien invasion laws.  It is a good thing that the alien invaders have a lot of support from the mass media and from more misguided, uneducated graduates of the worst educational system in the United States.  Otherwise the politicians would have to admit that they are simply grandstanding for effect, and that their actions in opposing the legal efforts to prevent the invasion of the United States are misguided at best, and treasonous at worst.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"Los Angeles is the second-largest city in this country, an immigrant city, an international city. It needs to have its voice heard," said Councilman Ed Reyes, one of the resolution's sponsors. "As an American, I cannot go to Arizona today without a passport. If I come across an officer who's having a bad day and feels that the picture on my ID is not me, I can be … deported, no questions asked. That is not American."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Personally, I think that it would be a good idea to deport &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;ALL&lt;/span&gt; politicians who have served more than one term in office.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But that is &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOT&lt;/span&gt; what the law says.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But fortunately for Councilman Ed Reyes (and the rest of the City Council), it is not a crime to mischaracterize and defame some other state for trying to deal with a major problem that is destroying the United States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fortunately it is not a crime for politicians to accept bribes from special interest groups.  Or Councilman Ed Reyes and the rest of the criminal elite (otherwise known as politicians) should be spending time in prison for acting contrary to the best interests of the citizens who actually elected him and the rest of the criminal elite.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Still, a national opinion poll released Wednesday found that most Americans support Arizona's crackdown. The Pew Research Center for the People and the Press found that 59% of adults surveyed gave their overall approval to the Arizona law.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I don't understand, is why don't the opinion poll takers ever ask the alien invaders their feeling on the subject.  If they did, then the criminal elite (politicians and mass media) could at least have some basis for their treasonous attempts to overthrow the laws governing the United States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;That has not stopped a number of U.S. cities from calling for an economic boycott of Arizona. On Tuesday, San Francisco's Board of Supervisors approved a resolution similar to L.A's.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And it certainly makes sense that San Francisco, a sanctuary city for alien invaders, is held up as the example that all alien invaders look up to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Councilwoman Janice Hahn, one of the co-sponsors of the motion and a Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor, said her office has been flooded with "hate calls and hate e-mails" criticizing the resolution. But, she said, "we know bad things happened when good people don't stand up and say something."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a democrat, Councilwoman Janice Hahn certainly has plenty of experience in creating and implementing bad things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The City Council imposed similar economic sanctions to protest South Africa's apartheid policies and Colorado's 1992 repeal of local ordinances that banned discrimination based on sexual orientation.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The City of Los Angeles is going bankrupt because the anti-business anti-legal citizen bias of the City Council.  The City Council refuses to actually do anything to solve this problem.  However, the City Council has more than enough time to criticize other cities, states and countries for not acting according to the whims of the incompetent City Council.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Officials with the Port of Los Angeles and Los Angeles International Airport have expressed concerns that severing all contracts could hurt those facilities' operations. The council resolution asks the commissions overseeing the port, airport and Department of Water and Power to review all contracts with ties to Arizona.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The City Council council doesn't need to worry about hurting the local economy.  They have never worried about the citizens or the economy before, so there is no need for them to start now.  As the corrupt, incompetent, special interest representing criminal elite, the politicians are only doing the job they were bribed to do.  So the City Council has no problem acting against the best interests of the legal citizens of the City of Los Angeles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It would be nice if all the brainless criminal apologists tried sneaking across the southern border into Mexico and started demanding their rights.  They would shortly find out what harsh criminal trespass and alien invader laws really were.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-2822174832043863253?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/2822174832043863253/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/los-angeles-city-council-stands-up-for.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/2822174832043863253'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/2822174832043863253'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/los-angeles-city-council-stands-up-for.html' title='Los Angeles City Council Stands Up For Alien Invaders Rights.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-3556582561980626551</id><published>2010-05-12T07:04:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-12T07:35:20.409-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='incompetence'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sec'/><title type='text'>SEC: Regulators Determine Porn Not The Cause Of Recent Stock Market Plunge.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100511/ap_on_bi_ge/us_market_plunge_investigation/print"&gt;http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100511/ap_on_bi_ge/us_market_plunge_investigation/print&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;SEC: Regulators yet to determine cause of plunge&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The head of the Securities and Exchange Commission told a congressional panel Tuesday that regulators need more time to figure out what caused last week's stock market plunge.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Based on recent news reports, the S.E.C.

The United States is exporting many messages around the world.  This news article talks about two of them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;MESSAGE ONE&lt;/span&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the United States, men have the right to large-breasted women in skimpy outfits bouncing around at their games.  Have you ever seen a team sport that didn't have large-breasted women in skimpy outfits bouncing around at their games?  When men get tired of waiting for the large-breasted women in skimpy outfits bouncing around at their games they invent sports to be played by large-breasted women in skimpy outfits, like the Lingerie Football League.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;In fact, men in the United States have the right to large-breasted women in skimpy outfits any time they want them.  The United States has a whole industry to provide large-breasted women to any man who desires one.  Plastic surgery allows all small-breasted women to become the large-breasted women that men around the world desire.  In fact, the United States has so many large-breasted women in skimpy outfits bouncing around that Muslim clerics have determined that this is the cause of earthquakes around the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;MESSAGE TWO&lt;/span&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And as science teaches us (those of us who are capable of learning) that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So for every lusty man having fun, there is a small-breasted frigid uptight women who objects to a man having fun.  Whether the small-breasted frigid uptight women who object to this are afraid the world is running short of small-breasted frigid uptight women for themselves, or they object in general to any man having fun is unknown.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is known is that for any activity where anyone is enjoying themselves, there is some radical fringe group ready to object to that activity.  Even that most moral of groups, Roman Catholic priests, who object to men having sex before marriage, still manage to protect and encourage Roman Catholic male priests to have sex with underage children.  And would you believe it, there are even groups that oppose this kind of activity as well?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-5813562948204386892?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/5813562948204386892/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/men-have-right-to-expect-large-breasted.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/5813562948204386892'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/5813562948204386892'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/men-have-right-to-expect-large-breasted.html' title='Men Have The Right To Expect Large-Breasted Cheerleaders And Groupies At Their Games.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-7088413735459600995</id><published>2010-05-12T07:02:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-12T07:34:53.318-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='incompetence'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='crime'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='justice'/><title type='text'>Drop Your Drawers, Get Out Of Jail.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.denverpost.com/news/ci_14527013"&gt;http://www.denverpost.com/news/ci_14527013&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Since 1970s, ID-theft victim has been dogged by someone else's "criminal" past&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;In more than 30 years of trying, St. Charles, Mo., lawyer Gary Stewart Heggs has found only one fail-safe way to quickly prove he isn't an escaped inmate from Colorado:&lt;br /&gt;Dropping his drawers.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is yet another typical case of American justice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A criminal steals some one else's wallet and identification.  The criminal gets arrested.  The criminal gets booked.  The criminal gets tried.  The criminal gets convicted.  All using the stolen identification.  The criminal manages to break out of jail and avoid recapture.  Law enforcement and the criminal justice system send out arrest warrants for the fugitive under the name on the stolen identification.  This happened in 1971.  The man who had his identity stolen is still constantly arrested because the state couldn't be bothered to find out the real identity of criminal.  The law enforcement agencies and criminal justice system are still looking for the criminal under the stolen identity.  The law enforcement agencies and criminal justice system refuse to quash the arrest warrant because they refuse to admit they made a mistake.  And because in this country the innocent citizen has no rights and no ability to defend himself against the all seeing, the all knowing, and the all incompetent police state.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The law enforcement agency and the criminal justice system can't be bothered to correctly identify the people they throw in jail.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And if the police state is willing to spend this much time and effort harassing an innocent man, you know they will exert even less care when administering the new national health care system they have just rammed down the throats of the vigorously protesting public.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-7088413735459600995?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/7088413735459600995/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/drop-your-drawers-get-out-of-jail.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/7088413735459600995'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/7088413735459600995'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/drop-your-drawers-get-out-of-jail.html' title='Drop Your Drawers, Get Out Of Jail.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-2315575426561440137</id><published>2010-05-12T07:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-12T07:34:38.299-07:00</updated><title type='text'>What Have B.P.

That you can never go wrong by lying about the situation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Halliburton's Probert said his company followed BP's drilling plan, federal regulations and industry practices.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Evidently, this kind of disaster is what you can expect when you allow federal regulators to oversee operations of any kind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And make no mistake, the federal government has been collecting healthy fees to oversee and regulate oil drilling.  The federal regulators have been as effective in monitoring oil drilling, as the porn surfing S.E.C. employees have been at overseeing and regulating wall street financial businesses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The main thing to remember, is that any federal oversight agency will do anything to avoid actually doing what they are paid to do.

No.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is it the socialist / liberal / democrat (Barack Hussein Obama along with his czars and commissars) that thinks the new alien invaders, once given amnesty will vote for their political agenda?  Yes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is it the mass media which believes that the socialist / liberal / democrat (Barack Hussein Obama along with his czars and commissars) will bail them out when their support for the reprehensible extremists looses them so many subscribers / viewers that they can't make a profit any more?  Yes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is it the illegal aliens who have invaded this country?  Yes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is it the Mexican government which is so corrupt and inefficient that they are glad to get rid of the millions of citizens they can't manage or care for?  Yes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the favorite lies that Barack Hussein Obama (along with his czars and commissars) uses to defend his lack of enforcement of the alien invader laws, is that it is unAmerican to refuse to accept people illegally entering the United States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because Barack Hussein Obama (along with his czars and commissars) hate America and doesn't know anything about history that hasn't been rewritten by a socialist, they are completely unaware (or they are choosing to ignore anything that proves him wrong) that he is wrong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Did the United States ever turn away people seeking political asylum who were fleeing a genocidal regime, and who were later killed upon their return to that country?  In 1939 the United States did just that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Holocaust/stlouis.html"&gt;http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Holocaust/stlouis.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The Tragedy of the S.S. St. Louis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So when Barack Hussein Obama (along with his czars and commissars) talks about the United States needing to accept migrant workers looking for a better job, he is either ignorant or dishonest.  Or both.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The United States had no problem back in 1939 in rejecting people fleeing a murderous regime intent on killing them along with millions of others.  In fact, the murderous regime accepted as proof that the United States agreed with them that killing undesirables was acceptable because the United States refused admittance to the refugees.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So while Barack Hussein Obama (along with his czars and commissars) continues to pretend that ignoring the alien invader problem is the right thing to do, the citizens of the United States are preparing to fight back in any way they can.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-1735173459088253131?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/1735173459088253131/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/after-arizona-why-are-so-few-states.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/1735173459088253131'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/1735173459088253131'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/after-arizona-why-are-so-few-states.html' title='After Arizona, Why Are So Few States Considering Immigration Bills?'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-1808640220083597053</id><published>2010-05-11T06:42:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-11T07:04:56.583-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Respect For Law Goes Up In Smoke.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.cnn.com/2010/CRIME/05/10/montana.medical.marijuana/?hpt=Sbin"&gt;http://www.cnn.com/2010/CRIME/05/10/montana.medical.marijuana/?hpt=Sbin&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Medical marijuana stores firebombed in Montana&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The Billings, Montana, City Council will take up the issue of regulating medical marijuana on Monday night in a meeting expected to be intense in the wake of the firebombings of two of the city's medical marijuana storefronts in the last two days.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The federal government has laws against alien invasions.  However, the current federal government prefers not to enforce those laws.  With the support of the left wing media, the majority of the citizens of the United States are being taught that it is wrong for them to expect the government to protect the citizens from external or internal threats.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The federal government has laws against smoking marijuana.  However, even though the current federal government enforces these laws ruthlessly, the federal government is in conflict with the state on how to enforce the law.  For decades the federal government has been brainwashing the citizens to believe they have no freedom of choice to smoke or not smoke.  The citizens of the United States, knowing that the federal government is useless (except for voting politicians raises and restricting freedoms of the citizens) have decided to enforce the anti-marijuana laws themselves by burning down stores that sell marijuana.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So who is right?  The arbitrary and capricious federal government, or the arbitrary and capricious state government?  While they are trying to decide who can be more arbitrary and capricious I will smoke a medical marijuana joint and continue to contemplate the issue.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-1808640220083597053?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/1808640220083597053/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/respect-for-law-goes-up-in-smoke.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/1808640220083597053'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/1808640220083597053'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/respect-for-law-goes-up-in-smoke.html' title='Respect For Law Goes Up In Smoke.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-8282830381858833787</id><published>2010-05-10T08:48:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-10T16:43:59.510-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='obama'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='politics'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economy'/><title type='text'>Obama Encourages Freddie Mac And Fannie Mae To Continue Losing Money.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100510/ap_on_bi_ge/us_earns_fannie_mae"&gt;http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100510/ap_on_bi_ge/us_earns_fannie_mae&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Fannie Mae seeks $8.4B in aid after 1Q loss&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The rescue of Fannie and Freddie is turning out to be one of the most expensive aftereffects of the financial meltdown. Late last year, the Obama administration pledged to cover unlimited losses through 2012 for the pair, lifting an earlier cap of $400 billion. And with the housing market still on shaky ground, Obama administration officials say it is still too early to draft any proposals to reform the two companies or the broader housing finance system.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.opensecrets.org/news/2008/09/update-fannie-mae-and-freddie.html"&gt;http://www.opensecrets.org/news/2008/09/update-fannie-mae-and-freddie.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Update: Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Invest in Lawmakers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess the $126,349 paid by Freddie and Fannie (and their subordiates and associates) is paying off quite nicely for them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who do I have to bribe to become too big to fail?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Created by Congress, Fannie and Freddie buy mortgages from lenders and package them into bonds that are resold to global investors. Together the pair own or guarantee almost 31 million home loans worth about $5.5 trillion. That's about half of all mortgages.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In plain English, this means that banks can make home loans that they know they buyer can't repay.  The banks can then sell the bad loans off to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.  Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac then package the loans for resale to unsuspecting buyers.  Thus, rather than the banks being held responsible for making bad loans, the whole investing community gets stuck with buying bad loans.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is good to know that nobody who is involved with the process of creating and processing bad loan investment vehicles will be held accountable for their actions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Fannie also said it remains dependent on the government to stay in business. "There is significant uncertainty as to our long-term financial sustainability," the company said in a regulatory filing.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How can the economy ever hope to recover if the federal government continues taxing the few remaining profitable businesses and the few remaining employed individuals to support the too big to fail businesses that have no hope of ever becoming successful?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-8282830381858833787?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/8282830381858833787/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obama-encourages-freddie-mac-and-fannie.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/8282830381858833787'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/8282830381858833787'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obama-encourages-freddie-mac-and-fannie.html' title='Obama Encourages Freddie Mac And Fannie Mae To Continue Losing Money.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-1029422257511589020</id><published>2010-05-10T07:02:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-10T08:29:55.848-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economy'/><title type='text'>Socialism Works.

Chief among these policy changes is to reject the socialism that you have been infatuated with for too long now. You need greater respect for private property. You need entrepreneurship. You need competition. In short, you need free markets. Without these, you will never become more prosperous.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What rock did this professor of economics crawl out from under?  He certainly doesn't sound like a mainstream economist.  He doesn't sound like any economists that are currently working for the federal government, or even any economists with any association with the federal government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reject Socialism:&lt;br /&gt;Barack Hussein Obama, our socialist-in-chief, who was born and raised a socialist does not agree.  Barack Hussein Obama has appointed more socialist czars and commissars than Russia had before its' collapse.  Barack Hussein Obama is always working on new legislation to help spread the &lt;strike&gt;poverty&lt;/strike&gt; wealth because the founding fathers weren't insightful enough to make that part of the constitution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Respect Private Property:&lt;br /&gt;The United States has no respect for private property.  Try not paying your taxes.  You will quickly find out that you don't really own your property.  Want to build something on the land you think you own?  Try getting approval from the ranks upon ranks of bureaucrats who must approve of what you do on your own land.  Ever hear of "eminent domain"?  This means the government has the right to take your property from you, at any time, for any reason.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Entrepreneurship:&lt;br /&gt;Try starting a business.  If you have ever tried to start or run a business, you will soon encounter a myriad of conflicting federal, state and local laws you must navigate to start or run a business.  And let us not forget the myriad of federal, state and local taxes you must pay to start or run a business.  There is no place for entrepreneurship in the current business world.  You need to be a bureaucrat to even have a small hope of dealing with the red tape.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Competition:&lt;br /&gt;Not for work.  Unions prevent non-union people from working in any field where unions exist.  Doctors, lawyers, ... all have regulatory agencies designed to limit the number of people allowed to work in that field.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Competition:&lt;br /&gt;Not for businesses.  Just look at the myriad of federal, state and local laws.  Many of them contradictory.  All of them enforced by some form of government or other regulatory agency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Free Markets:&lt;br /&gt;Not on the international level.  Most governments are busy passing laws trying to protect inefficient businesses from being driven bankrupt by more efficient foreign competitors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Free Markets:&lt;br /&gt;Not on the local level.  For every person who wants to start a business, there is some regulatory agency that doesn't want them to start a business.  And if that person is foolish enough to actually start a business, then the regulatory agencies will swoop down to close the business if it doesn't follow to the letter, all the rules and regulations that the government can think up to put in the path of any business that wants to be successful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Conclusion:&lt;br /&gt;So while this economics professor may not be willing to say that his opinion about Greece applies equally to the United States, any of us less well indoctrinated in socialism find the similarities all too scary.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-1029422257511589020?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/1029422257511589020/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/socialism-works-look-at-north-korea.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/1029422257511589020'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/1029422257511589020'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/socialism-works-look-at-north-korea.html' title='Socialism Works.

With his socialist agenda, and his socialist advisers and appointees, we will soon have more socialists in our government than Russia ever had in it's government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"With iPods and iPads and Xboxes and PlayStations -- none of which I know how to work -- information becomes a distraction, a diversion, a form of entertainment, rather than a tool of empowerment, rather than the means of emancipation," Obama said at Hampton University in Virginia.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Has there even been a president who was prouder of his ignorance than Barack Hussein Obama?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barack Hussein Obama sounds exactly like his economic advisers, who all claim, I don't understand enough about economics to see a problem until after it is reported in the mass media, but I know enough about economics to fix the problem once it is here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Obama also lamented the spread of social media and blogs through which "some of the craziest claims can quickly claim traction."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the craziest claims I have heard is that Barack Hussein Obama is a native born American citizen and thus eligible to be president of the United States.  Another outrageous claim is that the Health Care Deform Bill will not bankrupt the United States and that it will balance the budget.  Another outrageous claim is that the stimulus / bailout (welfare for the wealthy) prevented the economic disaster that this country is in the middle of.  In fact, every time Barack Hussein Obama opens his mouth I hear another outrageous claim that the mass media so loves to promote.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fortunately, some of the smaller media organizations don't mind digging up the truth and making it available to the public.  Unfortunately, what Barack Hussein Obama considers a crazy claim, is what most of the country understands is the truth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"We can't stop these changes," Obama said, "but we can adapt to them. And education is what can allow us to do so. It can fortify you, as it did earlier generations, to meet the tests of your own time."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Really?  I don't see how education help Barack Hussein Obama.  Barack Hussein Obama  managed to graduate from school without understanding what democracy is and how it works.  Barack Hussein Obama  managed to graduate from school without understanding what capitalism is and how it works.  Barack Hussein Obama  managed to graduate from school without understanding what socialism is and why it doesn't work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"With so many voices clamoring for attention on blogs, on cable, on talk radio, it can be difficult, at times, to sift through it all; to know what to believe; to figure out who's telling the truth and who's not," Obama said.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The easy answer, is that every time Barack Hussein Obama opens his mouth, he lies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course Barack Hussein Obama is very concerned about what the media says.  Fortunately for Barack Hussein Obama, the mass media is as deluded as Barack Hussein Obama is, in believing that converting the United States from a capitalist to a socialist economy will save the country.  The mass media is as deluded as Barack Hussein Obama is, in believing that any time you can restrict the freedom of the citizens you have performed a public service.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am beginning to understand why Barack Hussein Obama loves giving speeches at schools.  There is no one there who will contradict his lies.  A large percentage of the audience has just been finished being brainwashed by the government into believing the latest politically correct socialist propaganda.  So they are more likely to be easily swayed by lie spouting demagogues with their agenda of "hype and confusion" that Barack Hussein Obama so loves to preach.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-4531985361010703237?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/4531985361010703237/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obama-is-bad-for-democracy.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/4531985361010703237'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/4531985361010703237'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obama-is-bad-for-democracy.html' title='Obama Is Bad For Democracy.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-5139577510549628841</id><published>2010-05-09T07:00:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-09T07:13:30.914-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='hypocrisy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='religion'/><title type='text'>Anti-Gay Activist Caught With His Pants Down.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://rawstory.com/rs/2010/0504/christian-leader-caught-rent-boy-needed-luggage/"&gt;http://rawstory.com/rs/2010/0504/christian-leader-caught-rent-boy-needed-luggage/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Exposed: Christian leader caught with male escort says he needed help with his luggage&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The male escort hired by anti-gay activist George Alan Rekers has told Miami New Times the Baptist minister is a homosexual who paid him to provide body rubs once a day in the nude, during their ten-day vacation in Europe.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I am confused.  It is pretty well known that most Roman Catholic priests are pedophiles or protectors of pedophiles.  Does this mean that most Baptist ministers are gay?  It is hard to know which sinswhich religions support.  I guess we need to see which sins each religion rails against most to know which ones they practice in private.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;In the past 24 hours, Rekers, a board member at the National Association for Research &amp;amp; Therapy of Homosexuality (NARTH) and cofounder of the Family Research Council, has claimed he took Lucien to Europe to inspire him to accept Jesus into his heart and renounce his homosexuality.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like the way his church thinks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would like to apply that religious logic to my life.

What is the world coming to when an American politician gets voted out of office for doing what politicians do best, accepting bribes and paying back contributors to their election campaign.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chicago style corrupt politics may work in Chicago for corrupt Chicago politicians, but other parts of the country seem less forgiving.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-7364410977908378446?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/7364410977908378446/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/who-said-politicians-are-too-stupid-to.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/7364410977908378446'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/7364410977908378446'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/who-said-politicians-are-too-stupid-to.html' title='Who Said Politicians Are Too Stupid To Learn?

The only thing that governments care about is accepting bribes from private sector special interests and the growth of government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While this may not be obvious at first, let me try to explain in simple terms.  Let us say that the whole planet has ten people.  Without government, all ten people are producing goods and services that the other people want.  In order to have a government, one of those people needs to stop producing goods and services, in order to spend time governing the other nine.  So we now have nine people supporting ten people.  As government grows, people switch from producing goods and services to regulating how the goods and services can be produced.  If this continues, eventually we get nine people regulating how the one remaining person can produce goods and services to support the other nine people.  This is the goal of all governments.  Usually the government and the country collapses long before it reaches this point.  The only thing honest economists (if you work for the government, you can't be honest) can't figure out, is the point where the economy and government crashes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;In a commencement speech at the University of South Carolina, Bernanke did not directly address the outlook for the economy and monetary policy.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course not.  How many lies can any government official spew before the audience starts getting fed up.  A few years ago, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke was ignorantly proclaiming the economic melt down couldn't happen.  Now Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke is ignorantly claiming he is the only one who can fix the problem.  Even though most of the graduating students have had their minds dulled by the pablum the schools call education, some in the audience were probably getting sick listening to the "hype and confusion" that the current administration is busy shoveling down our throats.  Most people (I am not sure I should include government employees as people) know that in order to fix a problem, you must first understand what it is.  So far, none of the political class that caused the current economic melt down had shown any indication that they understand how the economy works, much less what the problem is.  However, they are all busy wasting money trying to fix what they pretend is the problem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Gross domestic product "is not itself the final objective of policy." Still, officials rely on growth measures to calibrate their policies because stronger economies are better at creating opportunity, he said.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can say that again.  "Gross domestic product" is definitely &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOT&lt;/span&gt; what the government is interested in.  All the government cares about is "Government domestic product".  The term "Gross domestic product" used to mean what was produced by the private sector.  But since the government sector has been growing at the expense of the private sector, the numbers were too depressing for the government &lt;strike&gt;liars&lt;/strike&gt; economists to accept.  So "Government domestic product" is the new measure of the governments growth.  And it is doing a fine job.  As the private sector of the economy is being destroyed, and the public sector is growing, the government has to substitute government growth for economic growth, or the public might start to understand the amount of destruction that is actually going on.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-7733307164875030282?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/7733307164875030282/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/bernanke-tells-students-government.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/7733307164875030282'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/7733307164875030282'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/bernanke-tells-students-government.html' title='Bernanke Tells Students The Government Doesn&apos;t Care About G.D.P.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-7247778723100530133</id><published>2010-05-08T07:04:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-08T08:02:17.055-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='freedom'/><title type='text'>Ohio Woman Has Freedom To Not Paint Her House Different Than Anyone Else.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.10tv.com/live/content/local/stories/2010/04/16/story-hilliard-sunflower-mural-ruling.html"&gt;http://www.10tv.com/live/content/local/stories/2010/04/16/story-hilliard-sunflower-mural-ruling.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Hilliard Appeals Board Rules On Sunflower Mural&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;HILLIARD, Ohio — A woman who challenged a city order to change or remove a sunflower mural she painted on her garage lost an appeal with a zoning appeals board. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The city zoning board in Hilliard, Ohio ruled that a local woman has the freedom to paint the inside of her house however she wants to.

The schools don't want your help.  Or maybe it is just the unions that don't want your help.  In any case, as far as the unions are concerned, if they won't do the work, then nobody else should be able to either.  If volunteer workers help out, it sends a bad message to the school board and the general public.  The message the union doesn't want being sent, is that the union is not needed.  That the union isn't getting the work done that they are being overpaid to do.  So if the union can block volunteer helpers from doing the work, the union can then blame the system for not paying them enough to get the work done.

Barack Hussein Obama stated that if the &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;ONLY&lt;/span&gt; thing he manages to accomplish while in office is to get a bipartisan majority of this country to show the same contempt that he feels towards America, then he will have succeeded and he can be proud of his legacy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The onion.com was quoted as saying that if I "ever attempt to write a humorous article again, they will have my literary license revoked."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-3750573078691862697?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/3750573078691862697/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/patriotism-is-racist-and-unamerican.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/3750573078691862697'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/3750573078691862697'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/patriotism-is-racist-and-unamerican.html' title='Patriotism Is Racist And Unamerican.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26494217864590150.post-7247842753799440548</id><published>2010-05-07T08:28:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-07T08:43:26.247-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='flight security'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='tsa'/><title type='text'>You Are Now Free To Move About The Country.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.allheadlinenews.com/articles/7018626872"&gt;http://www.allheadlinenews.com/articles/7018626872&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Jokes About Miami Airport Worker's Body Scan Lead To Beating, Arrest&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;A Transportation Security Agency employee at Miami International Airport has been arrested for attacking a co-worker who teased him about the size of his genitals after he walked through a body scanner.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The "Theatrics, Stupidity and Apathy" (T.S.A.) is very concerned with the safety and security of the American people at airports.

Planning their retirement.  Of course they were not as careful as most politicians are in concealing their criminal activity when acting against the best interest of the people they were supposed to be serving.  But isn't that what all politicians do?  Accept bribes and payoffs to do the work of special interest groups against the interest of the voters who elected them.  So they are being unfairly penalized for doing what comes naturally to the political crowd they work for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But there is no need to worry.  I am sure there are plenty of convicted white collar criminals in prison and unconvicted criminals in politics who could easily put forth the same amount of care and due diligence as this dynamic duo did.

If enough states decide to start enforcing federal alien invader laws, then the illegal alien vote won't be available to help Barack Hussein Obama get reelected in 2012.  Barack Hussein Obama needs the illegal alien vote because of the number of voters he is losing because of the massive fraud used to pass the stimulus / bailout (welfare for the wealthy) and the takeover of the health care industry (health care deform) while allowing the economy of the United States to crumble into ruins.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If federal &lt;strike&gt;amnesty&lt;/strike&gt; immigration law gets fixed in the same way that the health care industry gets fixed, we will soon have armies of people marching into the United States from south of the border.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"The answer isn't to undermine fundamental principles that define us as a nation," Obama said to applause. He called instead for "common-sense comprehensive immigration reform."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the answer is NOT to undermine fundamental principles that define the nation, why is Barack Hussein Obama so willing to subvert the Constitution of the United States to get his pet projects (that the majority of the citizens of the United States are rightfully against) passed?  If the answer is NOT to undermine fundamental principles that define the nation, why is Barack Hussein Obama rushing to convert the United States into a socialist country?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Clearly neither Barack Hussein Obama nor his handlers have read the Arizona anti-alien invasion laws.  So Barack Hussein Obama and his minions are spewing forth lies about what they would like to think the law says and more lies about why they oppose the anti-alien invasion laws.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"I was pleased to see a strong proposal for comprehensive reform presented in the Senate last week, and I was pleased it was based on a bipartisan framework," Obama said. "I want to begin work this year. And I want Democrats and Republicans to work with me."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just like the bipartisan support of the recent Health Care Deform bill (no republicans or independents supported the bill), the bipartisan support for the expected &lt;strike&gt;amnesty&lt;/strike&gt; Immigration Reform is also likely to be exclusively provided by the democrats.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Without a comprehensive federal approach, the president said, state and local authorities would continue to take "misconceived" steps at addressing the illegal immigration problem, such as the recently enacted Arizona law that allows police to ask anyone for proof of legal U.S. residency.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Likely the real reason why Barack Hussein Obama is against police asking for proof of legal U.S. residency is that he doesn't have an American birth certificate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Actually, we already do have a comprehensive federal approach to the alien invasion.  There is a federal law that makes it a crime to illegally invade this country.  There is a whole federal department dedicated to deporting alien invaders if they get caught.  Barack Hussein Obama and the rest of his henchmen in the Washington District of Criminals have been refusing to enforce the laws this country already has.  They have tried to brainwash us into believing that putting up fences and guards would not make it more difficult for alien invaders to enter this country unlawfully.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;However, "we can't start singling out people depending on who they look like or how they talk or how they dress," he said, adding he has asked for a review of the Arizona law.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the typical lie that the supporters of criminal rights trot out with the support of the mass media.  The Arizona anti-alien invader law simply allows that anyone who would normally be stopped by law enforcement officials can be asked if they are legal residents.  And since the first thing that law enforcement officials ask for is a drivers license, then anyone without one is likely driving illegally (also a crime) and therefore can be asked about their resident status.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Comprehensive immigration reform would include continuing government efforts to secure borders from illegal immigrants as well as steps to crack down on businesses employing illegal immigrants, Obama said.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Comprehensive &lt;strike&gt;amnesty&lt;/strike&gt; immigration reform for alien invaders does not include any addition attempts to secure the borders.  The federal government has been dragging their feet in building fences and increasing the number of border guards.  That is unlikely to change.  All the federal government and the other supporters of rights of criminals can talk about is how to provide amnesty for the latest batch of alien invaders.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;In addition, he said, those living illegally in the United States would have to pay a penalty and any taxes they owe, learn English, "make themselves right with the law" and then start the process of gaining legal citizenship.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yup.  Barack Hussein Obama wants amnesty for the latest batch of alien invaders, and he will stoop to whatever depths are required to bribe or brainwash the democrats to vote for it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yet another perfect example of the corrupt Chicago style corrupt politics in action.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26494217864590150-8779216321733575533?l=cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/feeds/8779216321733575533/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obama-calls-on-all-democrats-to-provide.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/8779216321733575533'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26494217864590150/posts/default/8779216321733575533'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicalpessimist666.blogspot.com/2010/05/obama-calls-on-all-democrats-to-provide.html' title='Obama Calls On All Democrats To Provide Amnesty For All Alien Invaders.'/><author><name>Cynical Pessimist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01255738998466413186</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
