Interesting tidbits

Global Warming or Climate Change 

Isn't it interesting that a Russian ship is caught in ice preventing it from moving and at least 2 rescue attempts have failed to get to the site where the ship is stranded as the ice is increasing in thickness.  It seems odd that with all the claims of global warming that has to under go a name change to Climate Change since the ice in the Arctic and Antarctic have increased.  But we know, the ice is increasing because all the claims of the climate warming is bunk, but whether the climate is cooling or warming, we know everything will be because of Climate Change.  With many scientist debunking the climate warming advocates, they were forced to change the name to Climate Change so they can at least be consistent regardless of which way the climate goes.   

Oil production 

We can and are going to be able to produce all the oil and gas that this country can use even though the Obama administration has prevented oil drilling on government lands, but fortunately the private land owners where Fracking has produced our new oil production increase to the dismay of the Obama administration.  South Dakota land owners by leasing their land have become the latest millionaires and other states where Fracking is possible are trying for the same results.  Except of course, New York State where Gov. Cuomo has decided he rather have higher unemployment, and less tax collection than permit such drilling along the Pennsylvania border that could be an economic boom to the area and the state, but since his liberal radical environmental supporters would prefer us going back to the horse drawn wagons or the 35 mile electric car over oil gas production.  It has been well documented that we have more gas in the ground that could provide energy for our country for over 100 years.  And if we developed increased gas production and were able to develop safe vehicles to run on natural gas the only roadblock would be gas stations getting natural gas holding tanks that could be overcome in a short time.  But that would put a dent in the radical environmentalist argument.    

Obamacare

Better start reading on all the taxes that are coming with Obamacare in 2014 since everyone would be affected except those big corporations that are big donors to political campaigns.  Wonder who thought of that?

Obamacare, taxes, Common Core and more


Under Obamacare, taxes go up, insurance premiums go up, doctor availability goes down, hospital availability goes down, prescription drug plans cost goes up and some prescription availability goes down and those of us that have some money are going to pay through increase taxes and cost for those that do not.  We can not forget for those that are on Medicare that Obamacare has taken $740 million from Medicare for Obamacare.  So you can rest assured and expect changes to the Medicare program if only to make up the shortage.  Obama's goal of redistribution.  Give to those that work hard to others so they won't have too.  And this is only in 2014.  Just wait until 2015 and 2016. 

For those that believe government making decisions in your life is the way to go, should move to Cuba or Venezuela and let us get back to what our Founding Fathers gave us.  We have government telling us what to eat, what to drive, what temperature our thermostats should be set, and coming to a location near you, where to live.   

Under the great educational program called Common Core, we will have the government telling us if we are college material or if we should go to a trade school and what they believe we are best suited for as an occupation.  If you are not aware of everything about Common Core, then you should take time and read. 

And now with the 2014 elections coming up, it is time to ask your member of Congress if he/she is a democrat, have they read the bill (Obamacare) yet.  When your representative votes for major legislation that could practically destroy this country's economy and way of life and does not read that legislation, it is time to have them replaced. These people are only concerned with keeping their job and will do anything to keep that job and that includes lies, deception and misinformation to keep that job.  Of course, the dumb and clueless voter has to be awakened or we will be known as the once great country.

NSA spy scandal


One thing you are not being told on the NSA spying is that President Obama and his minions were using the NSA to spy on their political opponents.  Welcome to the third world.

The world in turmoil, but...............

The world is in turmoil, our country is running up debt as if our money supply is unlimited, our representatives in Congress are more interested in the 2014 election, Obamacare is destroying lives and what was the best health care in the world and yet the big discussion this week is what Fox News, Megyn Kelly said about Santa Claus being white and so was Jesus.  Any discussion to avoid discussing the real issues facing our country.  Santa Claus can be any color you want him to be, and Jesus is for all of us and color does not matter, but in the interest of diverting attention from what is going on in Washington, we get involved in stupid discussions.  Jesus is the reason for the season and Santa Claus is just that, an imaginary person for the benefit of kids and how shocking some of us were when we learned Santa Claus was not real.  But we got over that quickly.  But we will not get over our country's problems unless we actually address them rather than continue to kick the can down the road.   

We have a president whose poll numbers are tanking but in reality, he does not care like other presidents in the past.  Now why is that?  Because he is a follower of Saul Alinsky, an avowed communist, where the end justify the means and that is what President Obama is doing where is agenda is to destroy this country.  Remember his early educational years were in Indonesia where he was taught hatred of our country and this has carried over into his life today.  Destroy American and you can save the world.  This is what he believes and if you are honest with yourself and review his life and his administration up to today, that is the only solution you can come up with.   

Congress has no problem spending money since the money does not come out of their pocket.  If they need more money, just raise fees and increase taxes.  You and me must monitor our expenses and income to make sure we are living within our income.  Another way to look at our debt problem is if your salary is $27,000 annually, you spend $39,000 annually and have credit card debt of $170,000.  Your question to answer this dilemma is how would you solve the problem?  Reduce spending or print money to pay the debt?  Now printing money will get you a nice place in jail, continual spending without regard of where the money is coming from will eventually get you into bankruptcy.  And where would the money come from since you do not have it.  Steal? Like congress is doing to us by increasing taxes, fees and a complete disregard of our children's future or should we say what future?  They will not have a country that we came to know and love when we grew up.  Remember, President Bush left us $10 Trillion in debt and in 5 years of President Obama, we have seen that increase to over $17 Trillion.  When will this madness end?  Answer, when we wake up and demand our congressional representatives reduce our deficit or we demand a constitutional convention to address a balance budget amendment, repeal of 17th amendment, and term limits and not anything on the Bill of Rights.  If we could get 38 state legislators to vote for these amendments, they become part of our constitution.  Congress cannot pass amendments without state approval and we all know criminals (congress) will not legislate against themselves.  Or, we could remain silent and watch us destroy ourselves without a shot being fired.  Who would have thought.

Boehner a Conservative?

Congressman John Boehner calling himself a conservative is like the Pope saying he is Jewish or Nancy Pelosi calling herself a conservative.  Duh.  NBB, No Backbone Boehner is his real name and failing the citizens is his game.  Some people will do anything to remain in power and Rep. Boehner is the perfect example.  Make no waves and always cave so your congressional seat will always be saved.

What they do not tell you on the Budget Deal

Any budget deal that is over 1 year like the one they just passed will have problems when the new Congress comes into session in January 2015.(not 2014)  What you are not being told is that when the new Congress is sworn in, previous budget agreements are completely ignored.  So be prepared for changes in 2015.  Something they will not tell you.

A real Budget Deal?


Rep. Paul Ryan and Sen. Patty Murray reach a budget deal that actually fails to address our bulging deficit, reckless spending, but does mean a great possibility of their reelection next fall. Rep. Ryan claims this deal will save $23 Billion over ten years or a better way to look at it is $2.3 Billion saving a year.  Of course, we spend more than $2.3 Billion every week and this does not address the nearly $1 Trillion deficit increase that we have seen every year since President Obama took office.  So, we can expect our $17 Trillion deficit increase to over $21 Trillion during the remaining term of President Obama.  Both parties just continue to spend money we don't have, the Federal Reserve continues to print money that reduces the value of our currency, and Congress continues to kick the can down the road.  Remember, it is not about reducing our deficit, cutting spending or our constitution, but it is about making sure they get reelected, enjoy their $174,000 salary plus perks, keeping their party in power and if the country collapses, they know they will no longer be members of Congress, but will be members of the Proletariat.  The clueless voters will continue to support and reelect these people of both parties and it is up to both parties to make sure the clueless voter remains clueless.  Throw the voter a bone periodically to keep them happy, continue the lies and deception until the 2014 election and then it is business as usual.   It seems, Profiles in Courage are definitely lacking here.  But then again, politicians have no courage to face tough situations, but will always take the easy road and just kick the can down that road.  Maintaining their position of power is their priority.  And they mocked Sen. Ted Cruz that actually took a stand, whether you like him or not, he did what he told the voters who elected him he would do.  It is just that we need another 400 more with similar courage.   Lots of luck when you realize the each party likes to hand pick the candidates they want us to vote for, except for people like Ted Cruz and others that ran against the establishment and we see the results.  Rest assured, each party is going to make sure this does not happen in 2014.  God forbid we actually see candidates that reflect our views over the establishment.

More on Obamacare

For all those who thought the Affordable Care Act, AKA Obamacare, was the second coming, I hope you do not get screwed like many citizens have been and will be in 2014.  What we see happening with Obamacare was always planned to get the pubic so outraged that they would jump at a single payer plan.   Now we are learning that in order to keep expenses down, you get higher premiums and higher deductibles so you out of pocket expenses increase and unless you have a major medical problem, you may never get the opportunity to file a claim with your insurance carrier.  And now we are learning your prescription drug plan may not be able to give you the prescription medication you are presently receiving or may receive in the future.  The whole idea behind Obamacare is to increase out of pocket expenses, especially for the young healthy insured to pay for those that are older or require more medical care.  It is like a Ponzi scheme.  Of course going back to what President Obama said in 2008/9 that if your treatment is expensive and a financial drain, maybe you should go home to die.  I do believe Rep, Alan Grayson made that claim back in 2010, but he wanted to blame the Republicans.  Now we know he was right, but the wrong party.  One of the problems we have is the clueless people that live in this country that this president and his fellow democrats hope remain clueless while they screw them.  Not to say the republicans are much better, but they have not sank to the bottom yet and many still believe in a balance budget, reducing spending and affordable healthcare.  Rep. Price from Georgia has introduced years ago a healthcare insurance plan that would meet the needs of all citizens, but Sen. Harry Reid will not bring it to the floor.   So when the President claims the republicans have not submitted a plan, it is just another lie that his friends in the news media will support.

Listen closely to what he says.

If you review what President Obama has been saying for the past 6 years, you will realize he does exactly what he accuses others of doing.  This is his mantra.  As I have said many times before, you watch the right hand, but what is the left hand doing.  And yet, it seems he is not called out to explain why he does what he accuses others of doing.  As long as the news media has organisms and wet their pants (Chris Matthews) over Obama, it will never be reported.  But his fall back position has always been, I did not know, was not aware, was not told, not informed or whatever he believes the news media will buy.

A numbering system?


With President Obama nearing the end of his 5th year in office and the fact that he has never told a lie but has misrepresented the facts, misreported the facts and misspoke, I believe it would be easier to use a numbering system when reporting stories on events in this administration.  I think the following numbering system should apply, Period.  Number 1, It was the Bush administration's fault, #2, A movie, #3, Republicans, #4, Fox News, #5 Tea Party organizations, #6, Talk radio, #7 2nd Amendments advocates, #8, Rogue employees, #9, A tsunami, and last but not least, #10, I only just heard about it when I read the papers.  I believe reporting the news on the president using this numbering system would be environmentally friendly, by using less ink and maybe eventually less paper since at times this administrations explanations for its failures can get long winded.  Of course, the carbon dioxide being expelled into the air may have to be addressed by the EPA with another regulation or would that require another number?
