Keep your hands off my money!

So my husband and I worked our asses off to save money and invest well and this a**hole wants to SHARE my wealth? I don't think so! Share your own o-bummer! Get your richie rich Hollywood types to share theirs, but LEAVE MY $ alone! It's up to my husband and I to decide who we want to give $ to! Go to this site and read the crap this guy is spewing: Obama: "A New Vision Of An America In Which Prosperity Is Shared"

VALUES--Yes, our economic woes are about values

"The economy is also a social "values" issue.
It's about the extent to which we respect private property and it's protected from politicians.
Respect for private property is disdained in socialist countries. Respecting the sanctity of private property reflects our values as much as does our respect for the sanctity of life and marriage."

Illegal and we're paying her way

Went to Aldi's this afternoon. I'm waiting in line behind a Mexican woman and her son (only speaking Spanish). She pulls out her LINK card to pay and the cashier asks if she wants cash back. At first she says no (probably not realizing she could do that) and then changes her mind and asks for $100 back. Okay--that pissed me off. She finishes, gets her money back and moves over to bag her groceries. Then it's my turn. I told the cashier, "I didn't know you could get cash back on food stamps." He says yes, if they have that option. He asks if I want cash back (from my debit card) and I said no, I just paid for that lady's groceries and cash back. He shook his head and agreed.
I know some people need help--that's fine, but she's probably working for cash (told the cashier that and he agreed) and so her income level (official income) is low. By the way, she drove off in a pretty nice Jeep SUV. This is why the country is bankrupt. And damn it, speak 'effin English, or become a citizen or get the hell out of my country.

Getting rid of the state scholarship program

I got my Masters' Degree from University of Illinois/Springfield with the assistance of a Legislative Scholarship from my home State Representative--Cal Skinner. I worked FOR YEARS serving the people of the State of Illinois (honorably) and NEVER got paid anywhere near what my services were worth. BUT--I got a great education with that scholarship and considered it my duty to repay the taxpayers with service. Sure, there have been some abuses of the scholarship program--but for ever abuse there are probably a thousand stories just like mine. So getting rid of the program is a bad idea--FIXING it would have been better. Another example of taking a sledge hammer to something rather than dealing with the real issues. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/chi-illinois-senate-votes-to-end-legislative-scholarships-20120503,0,6666403.story

Rudy Giuliani speaks in Washington - Nick Kalman, Fox News

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani says responsibility for the Occupy Wall Street movement rests squarely on the shoulders of President Obama.

"This is a very dangerous movement, and it's ironic it's happening under a president who promised to unify us," Giuliani said. "Barack Obama owns the Occupy Wall Street movement, it would not have happened but for his class warfare."

The Occupy Wall Street protests broke out in cities all over the country shortly after president Obama called for tax hikes on the wealthiest Americans. Some of the protests have turned violent. In Oakland, California, more than 100 people were arrested and eight were seriously injured Thursday, with protesters leaving stores in flames, and streets littered with broken glass and debris. A week earlier a former Marine suffered a fractured skull in a confrontation with Oakland police.

Giuliani's words Friday charged up the crowd at the Defending the American Dream Summit, sponsored by the conservative Americans for Prosperity Foundation.

The 2008 Republican presidential candidate also predicted the movement will eventually lead to the end of Obama's presidency. "Barack Obama praised it, sympathizes with it," he said. "As it gets worse and worse, I believe this will be the millstone around Barack Obama's neck that will take his presidency down."

Demon-crats just don't get it--NO MORE TAXES!

Lawmakers to Propose Transaction Tax for Financial Firms Modeled on Europe - Bloomberg

"Two U.S. lawmakers will introduce measures to impose a transaction tax on financial firms that resembles a proposal released by the European Union.

Senator Tom Harkin, an Iowa Democrat, and Representative Peter DeFazio, an Oregon Democrat, will introduce the bills tomorrow in their respective chambers. The bills will give the United States an increased role in the international debate over a transaction tax, which is likely to be discussed at the Group of 20 summit this week in Cannes, France.

“It’s a significant way to raise some needed revenue,” Harkin said in an interview today in Washington. “Quite frankly, I bet nobody would even feel it.”

"The bills are unlikely to become law: Republicans, who have opposed transaction taxes in the past, control a majority in the House."

Just what we DON'T NEED--new taxes. Demon-crats are idiots.

Again, more no-bama bribes--is ANYONE surprised?

Obama's Student Loan Gift to Occupy Wall Street

Obama's Student-Loan Order Saves the Average Grad Less Than $10 a Month

"By calling for these measures, President Obama seeks to respond directly to young Americans stressed about their student loans. Indeed, one of the vague objectives of the Occupy Wall Street movement is for student debt forgiveness. But from a practical standpoint, these executive orders won't have much of an impact. To take on the student debt problem more aggressively, the president would need some actual legislation that would shake the fundamental framework of the student loan system."

And in the USA TODAY: "Currently, borrowers who qualify for the income-based repayment program can have loan payments capped at 15% of their discretionary income. After 25 years of qualifying payments, the balance of the loan will be forgiven. Under the administration's proposal, payments would be capped at 10% of discretionary income and forgiven after 20 years.

However, this expanded relief would only apply to loans issued in 2012 or later, says Michael Ryan, vice president of American Student Assistance, a non-profit that helps borrowers manage their debt. Borrowers with loans issued before 2012 would be subject to the existing income-based repayment standards, he says."

AFTER 2012!!!!!

But of course the big publicity push is on now---for votes.

Philadelphia mayor talks tough to black teenagers after ‘flash mobs’

PHILADELPHIA — Mayor Michael A. Nutter, telling marauding black youths “you have damaged your own race,” imposed a tougher curfew Monday in response to the latest “flash mob” — spontaneous groups of teens who attack people at random on the streets of the city’s tourist and fashionable shopping districts.

“Take those God-darn hoodies down, especially in the summer,” Mr. Nutter, the city’s second black mayor, said in an angry lecture aimed at black teens. “Pull your pants up and buy a belt ‘cause no one wants to see your underwear or the crack of your butt.”

“If you walk into somebody’s office with your hair uncombed and a pick in the back, and your shoes untied, and your pants half down, tattoos up and down your arms and on your neck, and you wonder why somebody won’t hire you? They don’t hire you ‘cause you look like you’re crazy,” the mayor said. “You have damaged your own race.”

I CALL BULLSHIT !!!

If you're rich you can send as much money as you want to the US Treasury.

So liberals--call up your rich friends and tell them to send THEIR FAIR SHARE to the US Treasury---to donate their hard earned money to help out all those poor people. Tell them NOT to invest in businesses, not to buy stuff (which means SOMEONE has to manufacture it/and of course people work at those places and make the stuff), and not to employ anyone. Tell them to just write checks to the US Treasury.

I call bullshit.

And by the way, according to no-bama, we (the voters) are too stupid to understand the debt situation--"professional politicians" understand it and take care of whatever needs to be done.

So us stupid people will be tossing you out of office in 2012--let's see how you (Mr. Pompous) feel about that!

Obama Economic Plan Fails

Editorial: Now Can We Say Obama Economic Plan Fails? - Investors.com

"Economy: With unemployment now at 9.2% and job growth at a standstill, is there anyone not blinded by ideology or rank partisanship who can't see that Obama's spend-and-regulate economic plan has been an utter failure?"

"Yet, rather than admit failure, Obama's only response is to try to shift blame and convince us to lower our expectations. "The economic challenges that we face weren't created overnight," he said on Friday, "and they're not going to be solved overnight."

Translation: How can you expect anything more, when everything was so messed up when I got into town? Poppycock."

The missing facts in President Obama’s news conference - The Fact Checker - The Washington Post

The missing facts in President Obama’s news conference

When even the liberal Washington Post pans your press appearance and pretty much calls you a liar, well, you know you're on the downhill slide....

For example:
---"The president’s claim of an “unprecedented” effort to trim federal regulations is laughable."
---"Watch out when someone says “unprecedented.” It’s almost never true."

Wow, wonder what the demon-crats will be saying about no-bama years from now. You think any one of them will actually tell the truth about him????

The sad thing is that no-bama has wasted an incredible opportunity--the first black president. He's wasted the chance to be a 2 term president and to really do something meaningful for "people of color." Instead he has turned out to be a failure, a leftist liberal America hating chump. But the people who voted for him should be the really angry people--they should tell him "shame on you" for squandering the chance to really prove how great he could be. Instead he has disgraced them. Shame.

Shocking! no-bama's a liar!

Yep, there's a choice all right. And we're gonna make it and put those two creeps out on the street so we can rebuild our country.

It's only getting worse as they get more desperate

Lapdog Obama heels when unions whistle | Examiner Editorial | Opinion | Washington Examiner

"The Obama administration's justification for the rule as a transparency measure is laughably hypocritical. Soon after taking the oath of office, Obama undid union financial disclosure requirements mandated by the very same 1959 law. Before the Obama transparency rollback, unions had to fill out LM-2 forms reporting the total value of all benefits received by union officers, the names of parties involved in union asset transaction, and all union receipts. Now, thanks to Obama, unions do not have to disclose any of these financial transactions to their members."

UNBELIEVABLE---do we understand how difficult it's going to be to clean up after these horrible people when we take over the presidency and the Senate???? It's going to take years to undo all the damage these SOB's have done in the last 3 years.

I sure hope our new REPUBLICAN president will have the backbone to do all the things necessary to get us back on the CORRECT path.

CBO: Federal Debt to Hit 70% of GDP This Year - FoxBusiness.com

CBO: Federal Debt to Hit 70% of GDP This Year - FoxBusiness.com

"U.S. debt is forecast to soar to 70% of the country's annual economic output -- the highest share since shortly after the end of World War II -- by the end of this year, according to a report by the Congressional Budget Office.

Budget deficits that are the highest since 1945 are the cause for the leap in public debt to 70% from 40% just three years earlier, which was just slightly above the 40-year average of 37%, according to the CBO. "


And Rep. Paul Ryan said this: “Today the CBO reiterated what the American people know, but too many in Washington simply refuse to acknowledge: We are headed for the most predictable economic crisis in American history, and Washington is not providing the leadership we need to avoid it. As Congress debates the President’s request for an increase in the statutory debt ceiling, the CBO warns of a more ominous credit cliff – a sudden drop-off in our ability to borrow imposed by credit markets in a state of panic."

So anyone who dismisses Rep. Ryan as some extremist had better wake up and take this stuff seriously. We're on the edge of a cliff--and no-bama and his buddies are PUSHING US OVER!!!


The Truth About Tax Cuts

Morning Bell: The Truth About Tax Cuts | The Foundry: Conservative Policy News Blog from The Heritage Foundation

Lies liberals tell about tax cuts. They will do anything---anything but tell the truth.

"All you are likely to hear about low tax rates from liberals and their echo chamber in the media is that they don’t work—that they fail to gin up economic or job growth. Exhibit A for this preposterous proposition is the Bush tax cuts. The left wants you to accept it as conventional wisdom that the policy was a bust.
Don’t believe it. The tax cuts enacted by the U.S. Congress in 2003 were an important cause of an economic expansion that roared for some 50 months and created 8.1 million jobs. The opposite philosophy—a stimulus that has crowded out private investment, plus an enormous health bill and a nightmarish financial regulatory package that are killing job creation—has only delayed recovery and left us with 9.1% unemployment."

Fla. Teachers Union Sues Governor, Claim Paying 3% of Their Own Pension Is 'Unconstitutional' - Teachers Union - Fox Nation

"The Florida Education Association on Monday filed a class action lawsuit against Gov. Rick Scott (R-FL) and several administrators with oversight over a state retirement fund, alleging that they violated teachers' existing contracts with an "unconstitutional" 3% pay cut imposed by the recently-passed budget.

"This pay cut was used by legislative leadership to make up a budget shortfall on the backs of teachers, law-enforcement officers, firefighters and other state workers," said FEA President Andy Ford in a statement posted to the FEA's website. "It is essentially an income tax levied only on workers belonging to the Florida Retirement System."


Obviously these people have NEVER actually read the Constitution. No wonder so many people put their kids in private school there. How awful---they have to contribute to their own pension plans. Poor babies--I guess they've NEVER been in the REAL world where we put MUCH MORE into their own pensions. MORONS

So how did you use YOUR home equity loan?

We’re paying price for easy home-equity loans - Beacon News

"Remember how good it originally felt when you took out that home-equity loan to remodel your kitchen, figuring you’d worry about repayment someday down the road. Well, we’re “down that road” now — whether it’s home-equity loans or government mortgage guarantees."

If you're one of the dummies (I see them on television all the time) who used your home's equity for everything from nice vacations to furniture you're probably not too happy now that the inflation of home prices has hit an iceberg. If you thought that party would go on forever then I have a bridge for sale! Why the hell would you strip all the equity out of your house to finance your whims? Well, TOO MANY PEOPLE DID, and too many banks participated in your stupidity.

Michele Bachmann for President

My my, what an interesting day

  • Michele Bachmann officially entered the presidential race (HERE).
  • No-bama is heckled at a DNC fundraiser (HERE). Just the fact that anyone would say a contrary word during one of his speeches is pretty monumental.
  • At the GOP debate in New Hampshire (sorry, but who the hell cares about New Hampshire?) Michele Bachmann labeled Obama a "one-term president." (HURRAY!!!)
  • no-bama jokes about the projects the kazillion dollar stimulus funded being "not shovel ready." DUH you moron. 
  • Weiner-man's pictures of him standing in a towel holding his crotch in the US House gym "might be an ethics breach." No shit Sherlock. Sick bastard.
Did you watch the debate? I didn't watch it all. I did tune back and forth to watch parts of it. Sorry, watching Gingrich kind of nauseates me. I'm not a Romney fan either. Who will get my vote? Not sure now, but I don't think I'll vote as early as I did in the last primary. I supported Fred Thompson and voted early when he was still in the race. By the time primary day came he'd dropped out. Well there was a waste of a vote! So I think I might wait--or might vote absentee. Right now I'm leaning to Rick Santorum or Michele Bachmann. I like the fact that both of them are constitutional and social conservatives. I would trust both of them with the keys to the country. I like Herman Cain but think he would be a good Secretary of Commerce (he understands business). Time will tell how it all shakes out. 

By the way, be careful about going to Bachmann's presidential website. Some scum gay group co-opted her name and if you spell it's wrong you are directed to their gay rights website. So here is the CORRECT address: http://www.michelebachmann.com/

There is an unfortunate adage for the unemployed: The longer folks are out of a job, the longer it takes them to find a new one.
CBS News correspondent Ben Tracy reports that the chronically unemployed face the hardest road back to recovery, and that while the jobs picture may be improving statistically on a national level, it is not for them.

U.S. Military Personnel, Veterans Give Obama Lower Marks

U.S. Military Personnel, Veterans Give Obama Lower Marks

PRINCETON, NJ -- U.S. military veterans and those currently on active military duty are less likely to approve of President Obama's job performance than are Americans of comparable ages who are not in the military.

Barack Obama Job Approval, by Veteran/Active-Duty Status and Age, January 2010-April 2011

These results are based on an analysis of more than 238,000 interviews conducted as part of Gallup Daily tracking from January 2010 through April 2011. Respondents were classified as veterans/active-duty military based on responses to a series of questions probing whether any member of the household had served in the U.S. military, and whether the respondent himself or herself had served and, if so, whether the respondent was currently on active duty.

The Law of Lower Class Values

The Law of Lower Class Values « Freedoms Journal
"There is an absolute lower class culture. The victimization values of this culture create behavior that makes these people stay poor. It is not bigotry or prejudiced, nor is it condescending to call them lower class. They have a culture that is antithetical to creating wealth and accomplishment. This culture blames problems on others as opposed to making accountability a priority, and as a result, the victims are discouraged from improving themselves; they are discouraged from working hard for the “man.” It promotes a zero-sum mentality leading to crime, especially theft, and welfare dependence. It disparages educational excellence. It encourages misogyny which leads to the breakdown of the their family structure and contributes to the lack of traditionally successful male role models. I can go on and on. The vast majority of positive accomplishments from this culture revolve around sports and entertainment, especially popular music. Unfortunately even the popular music tends to extol the negative aspects of this culture."  (From Armstrong Williams)

My grandparents were immigrants from Sicily. They valued their family, God, and made sure their kids knew how important it was to work, follow the law, and save your money. They passed that on to your kids and my parents passed those values on to me--and I have done the same for my offspring. I married a man with similar values.

Moral of the story--I have never seen myself as a victim--I believe in hard work and accomplishment. Living your life that way will lead you to happiness and wealth.

"That’s because the Illinois State Police, the agency charged with protecting Blagojevich and his family, was at the same time secretly working with the FBI, providing them with inside information during a critical period of the probe against the former governor."

GOOD JOB ISP! All my retired ISP buddies are chuckling, and HAPPY!!!

Here's why we're screwed

"In the past few weeks, members of both political parties have finally introduced plans to save America. And it's about time.
Because the country's finances are a horrowshow.
Unfortunately, because our leaders are still pretending that we can have it all, Americans haven't yet clued into the fact that the only answer is BOTH higher taxes AND less spending.
In other words, kicking our debt and deficit problem is going to be painful. And everyone's going to pay."

This sure doesn't make me feel good about my Illinois pension

    For the second year in a row, Illinois ranks dead last when it comes to saving money to pay promised worker pensions -- and the hole is getting worse. According to a new report being issued this morning by the Pew Center on the States, Illinois through fiscal 2009 had set aside just 51% of the $126 billion it will need to pay retired workers their pensions.

'effing moron......

Obama: new task force will examine gas prices


There's war in the mideast, debt throughout the world and DISTURBING reluctance on no-bama's part (and the demon-crats) to deal with the SPENDING problem we have here. Our dollar is tumbling--no wonder the price of a gallon of gas is so damned high. 'Effing morons in charge in the White House.

Thankfully there IS a death penalty in Florida--and they USE IT

Searching for evidence in gruesome murder

This kid is lured to his death by his ex-girlfriend.  Disturbing, disgusting, awful. They should be tried and put to THEIR death when they are convicted. 

"When the unsuspecting Jackson arrived Sunday at the Summerfield home of one of Wright's friends, he was ambushed by several other teens, including Wright's current boyfriend, Michael Bargo, 18, police said.
Bargo allegedly shot Jackson several times with a .22-caliber revolver. When Jackson tried to escape, he was struck with an ax handle and restrained. Jackson was then placed in a bathtub, where Bargo broke his knees so his body would fit in a sleeping bag. But Jackson was still alive, so Bargo shot him again, police said.
Then the gang allegedly crammed Jackson's body inside a blue sleeping bag and hauled it to a backyard fire pit, where they used wood to start a fire that burned for hours."

Abortion makes Planned Parenthood money

ADF - Alliance Defense Fund

"Abortion is big business for Planned Parenthood.

In 2009, America’s largest abortion provider received nearly $350 million in taxpayer funding – and aborted more than 332,000 preborn children. The University of Wisconsin Hospitals and Clinics was secretly planning to transfer Planned Parenthood’s late-term abortion services to one of its medical facilities. Not only could this abortion program lead to the deaths of nearly 100 developed, 19- to 22-week-old preborn babies each year, but pro-life staff – like Anesthesiologist Nancy Fredericks – would be forced against their conscience to participate in the killing of innocent lives.

By God’s grace, ADF and our allies uncovered its covert scheme, fired off letters to university hospital officials, and helped coordinate a public response. As a result, the University of Wisconsin Hospitals and Clinics has abandoned its late-term abortion plans."

Liberal women ARE hypocrites

The Hypocrisy of the Feminist Left

"We all know most extreme leftists are undoubtedly hypocritical.  There are those who claim Rep. Paul Ryan’s (R-WI) budget plan will kill, starve and abandon disabled children and the elderly but they support Obamacare while denying the inevitable rationing that will occur under socialized health care when the money runs out.  There are those who praise the President for intervening in Libya for “humanitarian purposes” but criticize the war in Iraq.  A country with a sadistic dictator who killed more Muslims than anyone in history."


WAY BACK WHEN (I was in my early 20's) I was a member of NOW, but as soon as abortion became their #1 issue I told them to take a hike. If NOW is an organization that was designed to promote women's rights, protect and defend women, WHY do they praise and push support for abortion that (probably if statistics are correct) kills 50% of the babies that are aborted in this country? Why don't they protect and defend CONSERVATIVE women who are attacked (and viciously) by creeps in the press and on the internet? HYPOCRITES. They should be ashamed!

From Senator Jim DeMint

Republicans must not be so afraid of Democrats' threats of a shutdown that they fail to unite behind the broad, sweeping reforms necessary to save our country. There will be a short window to pass the balanced budget amendment before a vote to increase the debt ceiling and the GOP must take advantage of it.

This guy ought to know

I ought to know. I was Mr. Obama’s college classmate at Columbia University Class of ‘83. Our college was dominated by socialists and Marxists who hated capitalism and America. Let’s look at the facts up close and personal - Jeff Foxworthy style. Mr. Foxworthy leaves no doubt as to “who might be a redneck.” Let me leave no doubt that “Obama might be a socialist.”"
Wayne Allen Root

Paul Ryan explains the deficit and GOP plans

First strike on the unconstitutional no-bama care law

"Congress on Tuesday passed the first major changes to last year’s health care law, undoing both a burdensome paperwork requirement for small businesses and rewriting part of the way the health exchange subsidies are paid for.

The measure has become known as the “1099 repeal” because it would relieve businesses of having to file 1099 tax forms for any person or company to which they pay at least $600 in a year."

More success to come....

This is what came at the demon-crats in November, and there's more to come!

Hey you demon-crat idiots--there's more of this to come! Ya want a piece of us Republicans? Come on, we'll come back at you with SUPERCELL force! The American people have spoken, are speaking, and will continue to YELL AT YOU until you finally get a clue. Mark Halperin says you're "in the midst of a nervous breakdown." Well, sit back and enjoy the ride we're taking you on--it's gonna be bumpy. Get used to your minority status because we're gonna work hard to make it L O N G and sustained. You DO NOT have the will of the hardworking American people anymore. You are egotistical stubborn fools, and you are DONE.

Demon-crats ='s HYPOCRITES

Michelle Malkin

The Littlest Victims of Obamacare

The best of intentions (and in the spirit of the Christmas season I will say they had good intentions) have proven to be absolutely destructive of our insurance system, our medical care, and the financial soundness of this country. Demon-crats are hypocrites--they say one thing but when it comes right down to it they do all they can to defile our basic structure and what America is all about. No wonder America voted them out. Republicans--be the party of the people--not the country club set. Stand up to the socialist occupying the White House. It's time to be serious about protecting our country and doing what's right!

A lingering depression

So Tuesday was a WONDERFUL day across America for Republicans, and yes, here in Illinois it was pretty darned good to get rid of Bill "I'M A LIBERAL AND I DON'T GIVE A DAMN WHAT THE VOTERS IN MY DISTRICT WANT" Foster and Alexi "I LOVE MY MOB BUDDIES" G. BUT unfortunately the voters in this state allowed Pat Quinn to retain his death grip on Illinois. For the life of me I can't understand how anyone could vote for that boob, but of course the teachers' unions pushed him in spite of the fact that schools aren't getting the state money they're supposed to get, that Quinn uses them as a political tool, and that kids are not doing very well in state testing. Unions support slackers, and it's a damned shame they do not get it. They pushed lies about Bill Brady, allowed their members to believe the lies, and hide behind their lies.

So ya, the future of Illinois is bleak. Of course we'll get a tax increase. We'll suffer further deterioration of our credit rating, and the idiot known as Quinn will keep borrowing money (in concert with Madigan) and further putting our state in the red. It's so sad. So you can understand the lingering depression I'm feeling. I grieve for my state.

Finally someone who dispels some of the liberal lies

Pajamas Media » After Historic Election Wins … Setting the Record Straight

The final part of this article says it all: "If he persists in trying to transform America into a European-style socialist state, he will be a one-term president. That will be a change that Americans can truly believe in and change we richly deserve." LET'S HOPE no-bama IS ONLY A ONE TERM PRESIDENT. We can't survive another four years of this economic/social/legal terror on America.

Obama Doesn’t Get It

Obama Doesn’t Get It - By Victor Davis Hanson - The Corner - National Review Online

"He seems bewildered (for the first time?) that his popularity as a campaign rhetorician did not last when he became responsible for actual governance. For most of the press conference, a humbled but deer-in-the-headlights Obama half-heartedly argued that the populist outrage against his own massive debt, huge wasteful government, and elitism was really outrage against the economy he inherited, an outrage that he shares. We don’t know it, the president hints, but we are still angry at the Bush years, and yesterday mistakenly took our wrath out on Obama’s methodical, albeit too slow, efforts at recovery. In short, there was little admission whatsoever that Obama’s message and the way he pushed it turned off millions — there was no repentant Clinton, circa autumn 1994, here; instead, a shocked Obama who seems hurt that we do not appreciate him."

EGOMANIAC who can't figure out that we just don't like the crap he's been pushing. Geez, the hubris of the putz continues to astound.

Hey demon-crats: SHOVE IT

http://www.gopusa.com/commentary/2010/11/malkin-take-your-olive-branch-and-shove-it-democrats.php

"No more compromising deals behind closed doors. No more compromising bailouts in times of manufactured crisis. No more compromising conservative principles for D.C. party elites. No more compromising the American economy for left-wing special interests. No more compromising transparency and ethics for bureaucratic self-preservation.
Let us be clear, in case it hasn't fully sunk into the minds of Obama and the trash-talking Democrats yet: You can take your faux olive branch and shove it. Thank you."

It's morning in America

WONDERFUL election day for Republicans. Thank you so much to all the people who voted the demon-crat bums out. And SHAME ON EVERY TEACHER/UNION MEMBER who voted for Pat Quinn because they bought the union LIES about Bill Brady. SHAME ON YOU--you have continued the budget busting crap of Quinn and demon-crats in Springfield. Our state will sink in debt because you were stupid.

Obama's economists missed what voters plainly saw | Washington Examiner

Obama's economists missed what voters plainly saw | Washington Examiner

"Heading into what appears to be a disastrous midterm election, the Obama Democrats profess to be puzzled. The president's record, they insist, is moderate, accommodating, if anything overcautious. So why do most American voters seem to be angrily rejecting it?

That's one way of looking at it. Another way is to say that the Obama administration and the Democratic Congress have increased government's share of gross domestic product from 21 percent, where it's hovered for the last several decades, to about 25 percent and have put the national debt on a trajectory to increase from 40 percent to 90 percent of GDP.

Voters have noticed -- and don't like it."

Hmmm, I thought no-bama fixed that terrorist problem

Demon-crats told us that terrorists hated Americans because of President Bush, but they still want to kill us. Hmmm, and no-bama went all over the worls apologizing to everyone. Hmmm, maybe demon-crats were wrong? Surprise!

Time to dump Quinn

Cleaning up state finances will take years, Quinn says - Springfield, IL - The State Journal-Register

"Quinn, a Democrat, blamed the recession and former Republican President George W. Bush’s economic policies for the state’s fiscal plight."

With these morons it's always someone else's fault. Geez, man up Quinn. You and your fellow demon-crats are responsible. GROW A PAIR and admit you f'd up things.

Even student newspapers are coming to their senses (WE HOPE)

Kind of for the wrong reasons, but many students are beginning to understand there won't be a JOB for them when they graduate--and the older they get and the closer they get to graduation they start to see the economic realities of the no-bama administration and the Radical-in-Chief. Reality, it's a bummer.....
