Frog Stew

“ Some Guy I know writes Be sure to read the Tax List at the end. This is about as clear and easy to understand as it can be.. The article below is completely neutral, neither anti-republican or democrat. Charlie Reese, a soon-to-be- retired reporter for the Orlando Sentinel, has hit the nail directly on the head, defining clearly who it is that in the final analysis must assume responsibility for the judgments made that impact each one of us every day. It's a short but good read. Worth the time. Worth remembering! 545 vs. 300,000,000 People - By Charlie Reese Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them. Have you ever wondered, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, WHY do we have deficits? Have you ever wondered, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, WHY do we have inflation and high taxes? [....] If the tax code is unfair, it's because they want it unfair. If the budget is in the red, it's because they want it in the red.  If the Army & Marines are in Iraq and Afghanistan it's because they want them in  Iraq and Afghanistan ...  If they do not receive social security but are on an elite retirement plan not available to the people, it's because they want it that way. There are no insoluble government problems. Do not let these 545 people shift the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and whose jobs they can abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and advice they can reject; to regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate and from whom they can take this power. Above all, do not let them con you into the belief that there exists disembodied mystical forces like "the economy," "inflation," or "politics" that prevent them from doing what they take an oath to do. Those 545 people, and they  alone, are responsible. [Full] Any teacher worth his or her salt is reading this column in class, once a year. ”

Hitler-Stalin Pact-like

Hitler's Mustache                Pacts

“ SEOUL – President Barack Obama offered a private request Monday to Russian President Dmitry Medvedev for some “space” on missile defense ahead of November’s elections. “On all these issues, particularly on missile defense, this, this can be solved but it’s important for him to give me space,” Obama said, referring to incoming Russian President Vladimir Putin, according to a TV pool reporter who heard audio recorded by a Russian reporter who was in the room moments before the two leaders spoke to reporters after their 90-minute meeting. “Yeah, I understand. I understand your message about space. Space for you,” Medvedev responded. Okay, not quite the German-Soviet Pact of 1939 metaphor the situation begs, but close.  Obama needs time to get into position, and Medved is promised the result he wants; the end of American missile defense. Too heavy handed for you?  Okay, we're still left with Obama telling Medved (Putin) that the voters will not look kindly on it, so please keep it off the radar until after I'm reelected.  ”

Provoking Racial Unrest HELTER SKELTER

“ It was announced by Mikhail Muhammad, leader of a small militant organisation called the New Black Panther Party, who said he was seeking up to 10,000 black men willing to form a militia to find Mr Zimmerman and administer what they regard as justice. Asked if he was inciting violence, Mr Muhammad said: "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth." To the sound of cheers from followers, who wore black uniforms, he promised: "If the government won't do the job, we'll do it." Black Panthers offer $10,000 bounty It's damned important that Americans do not allow themselves to be provoked into doing what comes naturally while Obama is still in office.  He hasn't "given himself"  complete control over  all the resources in the United States in times of  emergency for naught.  ”

The "MC" words

Note: This article was deleted by Forbes.  This is a 'screen cap' Is There An Imposter In The White House?

“ Maybe the “birthers” were a little extreme, but is there something wrong with this “manufactured candidate,” whose history remains sealed from public view? What is he hiding? Could the “Hawaii birth certificate” be a forgery? Is there something much worse—like “sponsorship” by an unnamed special interest? I don’t know. I do know that the man in the White House now is an imposter. The only question is which kind of an imposter: an incompetent “pretender” or a genuine phony, a “Manchurian candidate,” who is a liberal, ½ black and ½ white, and an obvious Muslim sympathizer (despite claims of being a Christian—in clear conflict with his non-Christian behavior). [FORBES] (This link is an arbhived page of the deleted article) What a schmuck.  The dude is asking the very question "birthers" ask, but he's been so cowed by the Alinsky branding tactic that he goes  limp wristy apologetic from the outset. Of course that sumbitch Soetoro is a phony; and the preponderance of evidence suggests he's of Manchurian descent. And you, Mr Mariotti, are now a birther. Welcome.  ”

4 Best Legal Arguments Against ObamaCare

The 4 Best Legal Arguments Against ObamaCare Why the president's sweeping health care overhaul should be struck down by the Supreme Court.

“ 1: The Individual Mandate Violates the Original Meaning of the Constitution 2. The Individual Mandate Rests on an Unbounded and Unprincipled Assertion of Federal Power 3. The Individual Mandate Cannot Be Justified Under Existing Supreme Court Precedent 4. The Individual Mandate Threatens the Foundations of Contract Law At the heart of our problem. The Commerce Clause If the court fails to strike down Obamacare, it really is all over for this country, even if Obama is defeated in November.  The Individual Mandate is at the heart of it. ”

TOP GEAR (UK) NEWS

Catharsis TOP GEAR- NEW EPISODES!! CLAP CALP CLAP

“ As you are prolly aware, Top Gear (UK) is my go-to feel good place of all time.  There were 117 episodes available on NetFlix (and Amazon).  Because I husbanded them (rationed to watching just one a day), I squeezed better than 3 months out of the series.  I am today on episode 111 of the second go-around.  Which meant I had only a week left.  Last night I noticed the NEW EPISODES alert on my (NetFlix) recently watched icons.  HFS!  I looked,  and indeed there are seven heretofore unseen (by me) treats in store (don't  watch Top Gear on BBC- America, they trim a good 22 minutes from each episode).  Brilliant! By the by, I'm reminded of a question I've been wanting to ask.  By what convention are we, here in the US,  proscribed from watching  media from other countries?  Who decided that?  And, why? In my case I'm referring to BBC-UK.  I know you can download nearly unfathomable software to make the BBC think you live in Chelsea, but why is it necessary? It's Un-American! ”

Gas Pain

A short note on gasoline prices and the election

“ [...] This graph from Trevor Houser, a partner at the Rhodium Group and an energy and natural resources specialist, appears to suggest that the relationship between voting preferences and oil is incredibly strong. A chart plotting political analyst Charlie Cook's Partisan Voting Index against gasoline expenditures as a share of personal income demonstrates the tight relationship between how much voters spend on gas and how they vote.[... Tiger Hawk] Tiger Hawk 'splains this chart, but what it implies is that Obama's ass is grass. ”

10 Scams not dealing with Obama

—   you berk.

“ I was sure this TOP 10 SCAMS OF THE YEAR list would be pedestrian, containing none that I could possibly fall victim to.  This hotel guest scam is brilliantly conceived however, and I can see how my neighbor could fall for it.  (No, Obama for President was not on the list). ASIDE- Several years ago I idea'd this mission for our military, after we found and killed bin Laden.  Devote all of the nation's resources to finding and killing the world's biggest Phishers.  After we rid ourselves of Obama, it's still a grand idea. ”
