Friday Fume

Posted on by

Such a week. Oh my goodness.

Dennis Rodman is now BFF with Lil’ Kim over in North Diarrhea…

Curly is our new Pentagon Chief…Larry is the Secretary of State and we’re just WAITING for MOE(HAMMAD) to lead the CIA!!!!

OUR Dictator…ala Saddam and Mommar…HAS BEEN RELEASING CRIMINALS FROM PRISONS.

THAT didn’t end well for those OTHER Dictators…Did it???

And SoloPower…YET ANOTHER COMPANY WITH HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF TAXPAYER DOLLARS IN THEIR POCKETS…is about to GO UNDER!!!

It’s a wonder we don’t ALL go screaming into the night isn’t it?

Well, somehow, we’ve survived another week of socialist stupidity and we need some laughs to maintain our sanity.

It’s Friday Patriots and…

I’m fuming.

Can we all move on now?

Now that the Pope has gone to do whatever retired Popes do?

Look, I KNOW he’s the first one to give his 2 weeks notice and then retire in 598 years so, those who were in charge of the retirement party were sort of…Caught napping but good grief…2 full weeks of LASTS after being the FIRST in 598 years was a little much..

THE SEQUESTER IS COMING – RUN FOR YOUR LIVES

Posted on by

We are just a few days away from the end of the world as Obama knows it.

Sequestration is like giving the government growth machine a vasectomy…NOT a full castration.

To be quite honest, I was far more scared of the end of the Mayan calendar than I am of sequestration and for good reason.

What we’re talking about here is NOT the massive cuts and mayhem projected by the Dictator but a 2% slowing of the GROWTH of government this fiscal year or…roughly over the next 6 months.

That’s 2% of a projected $1.3 TRILLION DOLLAR SPENDING SPREE which means, at the end of this fiscal year, our big government spenders will STILL have spent more THIS year than last year.

This is, naturally, the truth the Dictator would rather you NOT know.

HE, and his faithless minions would much rather have you TERRIFIED of what will happen after this Friday’s deadline and he’s going to do everything he can to send you that message.

Sequester is NOT the doom and gloom, mass extermination event this Dictator is wailing and gnashing his teeth over and if your IQ is anywhere near double digits, it should cause you no alarm.

However…That said…

Weekend Edition: The Problem IS Spending

Posted on by

When we look at the numbers being bandied about in Washington these days, we know they’re BIG but, it’s just impossible to fully wrap our heads around them.

The national debt is $16.5 TRILLION DOLLARS.

Our annual deficit for the last 4 years has averaged somewhere in the neighborhood of $1.2 or $1.3 TRILLION DOLLARS.

It’s staggering, isn’t it?

Billions…Hundreds of billions…TRILLIONS…

How does one even begin to understand such figures?

This is why so many simply toss up their hands and walk away from conversations regarding these unfathomable numbers.

Allow me to add some context.

Something by which we can come to terms with the sorts of dollars we’re talking about when we discuss our bleak economic situation.

I’ll start with a simple question regarding a number we CAN understand.

Here goes…

Sequester – The DICTATOR’S Stupid Idea

Posted on by

So…

The sky is falling, THE SKY IS FALLING…

Again.

According to the Dictator, we will, in 9 days, not be able to pay our national gravity bill and whoosh…off the planet we will go.

On the stage with Chicken little yesterday, were first responders…Cops, firemen…Air traffic controllers…

AGAIN…

Because, ONCE again, they will be the first to lose their gravitational privileges.

Sequestration.

See  Dick(tator) blame republicans.

Blame Republicans Dick(tator) blame!!!

See Dick(tator) tell you that this is all a bad idea.

Tell us Dick(tator) tell us!!!

Giving Obama’s SOTU the BIRD!

Posted on by

So…

Tuesday night, our Dictator delivered his Hate of the Union address.

The gallery was full of professional victims and…Ted Nugent.

Oh, I COULD regale you with fact checks and and counterpoints along with pointing out all the contradictions but, why bother?

It’s been done and it doesn’t honestly differ much from his previous Lying like a rug addresses.

Instead, I thought maybe a pictorial recounting of the way Patriots viewed the drooling and applause laden fiasco might serve as a better alternative and when it comes to giving the entire manifesto the bird…I say…Flip it THE most PATRIOTIC bird you can find!

SO…Needless to say, after the first 5 minutes, the Dictator’s nose had exceeded the limits of my 55 inch screen.

It’s a good thing this festival of bull wasn’t shown in 3D…

Unconstitutional Fiscal Cliff Deals for Socialist Dummies

Posted on by

How will the new UNCONSTITUTIONAL fiscal cliff tax deal effect our economy?

I’ll get back to that but first…

Let me count the ways.

First of all, the new legislation sets the standard for “rich” at $400k for an individual or $450k for a family rather than the $250k originally desired by the Emperor.

This will leave some small business in the NON rich category but not ALL small businesses.

Those small businesses which exceed the “rich” limit will have some options available to them. They can simply put the breaks on any planned growth of their business which will be the case for those approaching the limit or, they can downsize if they are just barely OVER the limit.

What will be the MOST likely scenario will be businesses raising the cost of goods or services to compensate for their increased tax bill.

THAT, of course means, those who BUY those goods or services will have THEIR taxes raised by proxy.

Then there is the fact that EVERYBODY…not just the “rich” will see a tax increase.

That’s right…Part of the new fiscal cliff tax deal is that everybody…EVERYBODY will see their PAYROLL taxes go UP which means EVERYBODY will have LESS take home pay.

Nice huh?

All that talk from the Emperor during his campaign about making sure that the middle class would NOT have their taxes raised?

We Have Officially Gone Over the Sanity Cliff

Posted on by

Maybe the Mayans were right and we’re all too apathetic to notice that the world really has come to an end.

We are no longer facing the fiscal cliff…We’ve officially gone over it, for now. Today, maybe tomorrow or perhaps later in the week, the House will attempt something only seen previously in cartoons…Hanging in mid-air, turning around and trying to run back to safety before gravity sets in.

Last night, the senate passed a sort of, almost, not really fix for the fiscal crisis in that it included no spending cuts, doesn’t deal at all with sequester and only raises taxes on those making $400k per year.

The house hasn’t voted yet, and they might not like it at all since they didn’t like it when the tax hikes hit those making a million or more.

Given the fact that congress has a single digit approval rating, they waited until AFTER the last minute to do anything on this fiscal cliff issue and the senate hasn’t passed a budget in 1400 days or so…

Naturally they all deserve a raise.

Right?

I mean, we’re now 16.4 TRILLION dollars in debt, taxes are going up, spending is NOT going down and Congress  is basically waiving the white flag so…Obama signs an executive order giving them all a raise.

That ONLY makes sense if the world actually HAS ended…Right?

$16.4 trillion dollars in debt…

Weekend Edition: Obama Plan a Bridge to Socialism

Posted on by

As the “fiscal” cliff looms, there is another, perhaps more disastrous cliff of which congressional conservatives should be vary.

In Obama’s “plan” presented last week by tax cheat Timmy Geithner, are some just crazy ideas.

Obama, who ran on raising taxes by $800 billion dollars is NOW demanding $1.6 TRILLION in tax hikes.

If soaking the so-called rich, those who make $250,000.00 or more, many of them small business owners, was going to cause higher unemployment and a stalled economy, what then will soaking them for twice that amount do?

Faced with that sort of government theft, small business owners will NOT expand, will NOT invest, will NOT hire and WILL lay off employees to offset their losses.

In many, MANY cases, small businesses will ALSO raise their prices to consumers thus causing their customers to cut back on THEIR spending.

Combine the two and unemployment rises while the GDP falls.

Basically, the Obama “plan” calls for massive tax hikes and then leaves the spending cuts…dangling.

Obama says, give me the tax hikes NOW and we’ll talk about spending cuts…later…maybe.

Also included in his “plan” is another $50 billion dollar STIMULUS.

Why? Are there more green energy companies that have yet to go bankrupt?

Obama is acting like he has a mandate from 99% of the people to hike taxes in the 1% but, that simply is NOT true. He was “reelected” by a smaller margin than in his 2008 original election and, nearly half the people voted to send him packing.

In fact, the whole “tax the rich” and blow off the spending cuts “plan” only has the support of 11% of the people according to recent polls.

Gallop places the number of people who want “major cuts” to government SPENDING at 92% although, in Obama’s plan, we’ll discuss spending cuts sometime down the road…maybe.

NOT included in Obama’s goofy “plan” are any measures to stabilize Medicare or Social Security.

NONE.

NADA.

Zip, zilch zero.

Oddly, according to Gallop polls, 88% of the people WANT Obama to do something to save Medicare and Social Security.

It seems to me that 88% IS a mandate…92% IS a mandate but…11% is NOT.

So, let’s recap…

Obama Betting on What the Left of Sniffing

Posted on by

Have you ever had a friend go to Las Vegas and you give them some money to bet?

Here’s 20…bet on red.

Here’s 50…Roll the dice and we’ll split it if ya win.

The whole idea is that you would never give your friend more than you could afford to lose. If ya lose…Ya lose.

If ya WIN…Ya split it and go out for a drink.

In a one horse race…Barack Hussein Obama would bet on a bottle of glue.

That would be okay if he was betting his own money but, when Obama bets…He bets YOUR money.

What’s even worse is…It’s more than you can afford to lose.

We can now add Compact Power to the ever growing list of Obama’s bottles of glue.

Compact Power is the factory in Michigan that, 2 years ago, Obama himself proudly broke ground for. Compact Power, he told us, would create hundreds of jobs and crank out thousands upon thousands of batteries every year.

“You are leading the way in showing how manufacturing jobs are coming right back here to the United States of America. Our goal has never been to create a government program, but rather to unleash private-sector growth. And we’re seeing results.”

That’s what Obama said at the ground breaking.

“We’re Seeing Results???”

Really???

HERE are the results.
