Uncle Obama Wants a G-Ride

A Government Ride. That's what Uncle Obama wants. It's what he's good at. He, like Bill and Hillary Clinton, who make a good living off the G, wants to continue to live off the taxpayer's generosity. Let's look at the good Democrats who are from the same area as Barack and see how they are doing in the governing department.

Chicago War Zone Information

Body count. In the last six months 292 killed (murdered) in Chicago, 221 killed in Iraq. Sens. Barack Obama & Dick Durbin, Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr., Gov. Rod Blogojevich, House leader Mike Madigan, Atty. Gen. Lisa Madigan, Mayor Richard Daley...our leadership in Illinois...all Democrats.

Thank you for the combat zone in Chicago (a lot of good gun control does, huh?). Of course they're all blaming each other. Can't blame Republicans, there aren't any! State pension fund $44 Billion in debt, worst in country. Cook County (Chicago) sales tax 10.25% highest in country. (Look 'em up if you want). Chicago school system one of the worst in country. This is the political culture that Obama comes from in Illinois. He's gonna 'fix' Washington politics? (Written by someone who lives there.)

I may not be in lockstep with the Republicans, but I am proud to say, I am not a Democrat. What is it these current politicians want? (I include those in my own party of choice) Well let me go to the Wikipedia on line encyclopedia for a definition.

Totalitarianism (or totalitarian rule) is a concept used to describe political systems where a state regulates nearly every aspect of public and private life. The term is usually applied to Fascist Italy, Nazi Germany, Shōwa Japan or communist states, such as the Stalinist-USSR, Democratic Kampuchea, Vietnam, Mao-era and modern China and North Korea. Totalitarian regimes or movements maintain themselves in political power by means of an official all-embracing ideology and propaganda disseminated through the state-controlled mass media, a single party that controls the state, personality cults, central state-controlled economy, regulation and restriction of free discussion and criticism, the use of mass surveillance, and widespread use of terror tactics.

Does this sound familiar? It should. This is what the leftist liberals want more than anything. We must steer politicians in both parties away from this path of action. We can take care of ourselves without the interference from government. This is the political platform of the Democrats. Republicans cross the line and defer to the pressure on more occasions than I care to innumerate, but this is primarily the focus of the Democrat Party.

Slowly we are being conditioned to get in step with the drumbeat. It is a slow and steady process designed to wear down all opposition and get everyone in step with greater global awareness. Beware. If you are a fish and can still appreciate the water in which you swim, you had better work hard to keep your individual sensitivity alive.

What's going to happen when government takes control of the mortgage institutions as the result of their sizable investment in the bailout? You won't like it. The recently fired former CEO of AIG was due a severance package of 22 million. He has refused it, probably because he knew someone would hunt him down and kick him in the shins. 22 million for someone who ran a major company into the ground. Does this make any sense at all?

Bailout

Thank You Taxpayers, for the Bailout
Now, our family can purchase that villa in France........

Sucker !!

I wonder who in Washington comes up with the list of poor souls to bailout with our tax dollars? Tell me how these crooks deserve one penny of our hard earned money? If I went to any one of these greedy, poorly managed mortgage lenders and their supporting cast of investment bankers and wanted them to bail me out, what do you think my chances would be? Our government has taught them there is no penalty for making unsecured loans. They make their money off the top and sell the paper. Could we do that? I think not. I also blame the dolts who, knowing they couldn't qualify for a loan, went ahead and bought the mansion of their dreams and defaulted when it came time to pay the taxes and insurance. What happened to fiscal responsibility? I say let them fail. Sure it would be hard on us, but we are being worked like puppets on a string. People now have access to the markets by Internet and can buy and sell as they please. This sounds really good. I like the idea. However, many don't have an advisor and they know nothing about a long term investment strategy. This means those who have the lion's share of the stock can manipulate the market by using our gullible and complicit media. They can create panic and sell offs at will. Using the resultant fluctuations they can fill their pockets by knowing when these changes are likely to occur. They can also ruin those of us who do have a long term plan, but lack the funds to wait out the come back. I have lost confidence in the market for stable investment, but other investment sources are so compromised and entwined with it, our choices are limited. I am sure there are good people in the investment business who are smart enough to rid us of these crooks and get the markets operating on the normal ebb and flow of our economy, but they are powerless as long as the crooks are allowed to operate without consequence.
