End of the Recession - Good Job President ---- BUSH!!

Well, some economists are saying that the recession is ending despite the continued rise in unemployment and home foreclosures. Lets give credit where credit is due - Good job President Bush!! It would appear that YOUR economic team did the right things to help end the recession. I am so sorry Obama your team's economic plan has done nothing but increase unemployment and as a result home foreclosures. Barely half of your nearly Trillion dollar stimulus spending has been spent and most of that for social programs that produce no long term returns. The people receiving the money are still poor and doing nothing to improve their situation. Also, Mr. Obama, the tax hikes that are rolling toward us like an out of control freight train - to pay for all of your squandering - will lead to further economic decline as more and more people lose their jobs as companies lay them off because the money sources they relied upon dry up as more and more funds are diverted to pay for your massive social programs.

My dread for 9/11

September 11, will be here this next Friday, sadly we will most likely have to put up with an embarrassing, world ass-kissing speech by the Obama. My hope would be that one of the 9/11 groups invites President Bush to give a speech, thus offsetting the Obama's clap trap and at least provide some semblance of dignity to our fallen heroes and victims. The last thing that we need to hear is some sappy "can we all just get along" speech from our supposed president. His job is to stand up and honor the fallen and exhault the greatness of our country not down play it by making a soft pitch speech that offends no one. Radical Islamists need to be insulted, they behave like animals and if what they say about the Muslim religion is really true, then they disgrace their religion with their primitive behavior. The Obama needs to say that because we are not about placating terrorists.

Secretary of State - Obama

One thing that has been obvious from the beginning is that the Obama's foreign policies have been unmitigated disasters. There is North Korea and their pot-bellied dictator thumbing their nose at the Obama. It took a Gore-ite - former pres. Bill Clinton to save a couple of nincompoop reporters that got their asses in a sling in the NK. Then there's Iran, the Obama has extended his warm hand of welcome to their crazed leader, Ahmadinejad inviting him and his zealots into the Nuclear club. At the same time the Obama has turned up his nose at Iran's attempt at free and fair elections. To the south of us in Central America, there is a country, Honduras, struggling to keep off the chains of communism, but has in addition to contend with bullying by the Obama and his communist sympathizers. His policies for Afghanistan and Iraq are falling apart as death tolls rise along with new insurgencies. And now comes Israel, which has just decided to allow more building in the West Bank despite pleas by the Obama to not do so because it was hurting his beloved Palestinian terrorists. Some think that Israeli Prime Minister, Netanyahu, is just agreeing to the new settlements as a way to placate his conservative base, but I suspect that it runs deeper. The Obama turned his back on a long time US ally in favor of the terrorists and so now Netanyahu knows that he and his country will have to go it alone if they want to survive. They will get no help from our weak minded president. Where is our Secretary of State while all of these disasters are occurring. Well, first she was in Africa placating the Obama's mother land and now she is meeting with ousted communist Honduran president Zelaya. Other examples of the Obama's gross incompetence as a world leader includes his chumming with communist Chavez of Venezuela. He kissed the ass of the liberal Euro-trash and bowed to a muslim leader - he's our president - but not much of a world leader.

We're all HOPING for change!

WSJ: North Korea Prepares More Weapons Fuel:

The Obama administration has been hoping those actions might indicate a willingness in Pyongyang to return to the six-party aid-for-disarmament talks the U.S. has used since 2003 to try to persuade North Korea to give up its pursuit of nuclear weapons.

That is the problem with liberal foreign policy - it is all about feelings and hope, rather than actual action. As they say in business, "Hope is not a management tool." Also, this shows the incredible naivete of the Obama and Clinton and their non-existent foreign policy: "We hope the world will be nice to one another; can't we all just get along!"

We're Saved, Unemloyment only 9.7%!

There is some terrific (ha, ha, ha) economic news - Unemployment reaches a 26 year high - but hey, less than expected!!! Good work the Obama and company!!

PS: One must always be careful when discussing unemployment numbers because what is reported by the labor department can and most times is quite deceiving. The 9.7% represents only new (i.e. first time) applications for unemployment plus those on the rolls right now, they do not account for those who have dropped of the rolls - no longer able to receive unemployment insurance - but have not found a job or are working part time, in this case a few hours a week. The actual unemployment numbers are around 17%, which is really quite a staggering number when you think about it - according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics there are 14.9 million people unemployed - the 9.7% number, but accounting for the actual number 17% - 14.9 million unemployed at 9.7% implies 155 million workers, of which 17% is 26.1 million without a job!!

It is NOT the U.S., It is Comrade Obama

In the Wall Street Journal this morning, more bullying from the Comrade Obama: U.S. Warns Honduras on New Vote.

The U.S. said it will cut off some aid and may not recognize the result of Honduras's upcoming presidential election, in an attempt to pressure the country's interim government to accept the return of its deposed president.

Let's be honest here, this is the Obama not the US that is threatening Honduras. The majority of Americans want a free, not Communist government in Honduras. It is only the Obama and his comrades that want it the other way around. So, the non-State run media ought to properly say, The Comrade Obama and his Polit Bureau are pressuring Honduras and leave the US out of it. No wonder the rest of the world looks badly on us, how can they not when so much of if has fought hard to throw off the chains of the Soviets only to see the once great defender of freedom embracing communism.

The Moral of the Story - Get off your dead ass and buy your own health insurance!

What we need less of right now is all of the sappy heart-string pulling blabber from liberals on the urgent need to reform health care - case in point Tom Daschle's bleeding heart commentary in the WSJ: Climbing the Hill on Health Care. What Americans need are hard facts and straight talk from the politicians pushing this monstrosity called Health Care Reform. All of the touchy-feely crap about making it to the top of the hill is just a diversion designed to make us feel as though they are letting their fellow Americans down by not getting behind the Obama and his minion's plan to save those with no health care. Everyone loves a good "father-son facing a challenge together" story, but in this case Daschle and the rest of the libs have once again missed the true moral of the story. The moral of the story wasn't that, when you are down and feeling sorry for yourself to just hang on because someone will ride to your rescue and haul your sorry ass up the hill to the top. No, the moral is that to get to the top, you need to stop feeling sorry for yourself and just try and don't worry about failing because all you have to do is get up and try again. There will be someone there to give you encouragement but the challenge is yours to face and conquer. The libs would have us all believe that there are 46 million Americans out there that need the rest of us to haul their sorry asses to the top of the hill. What I am saying is that there may be 46 million Americans out there that need the rest of us to stop mollycoddling them and push them to get off their lazy asses and walk up the hill themselves.

I am willing to concede that in America today, there are 46 million people that are need of help with health care. Note the change from Americans to people because of that 46 million 15 to 16 million are illegal aliens in this country against our laws and why should we be paying more than we currently are for their health care?? Now, of the 30 million left, and concede they are Americans, half or more chose not to have health insurance for whatever reason, so that leaves maybe 15 million Americans that don't have solid health care - like quality health insurance. So, how do we help them? Well, the libs do it by hurting the rest of us - by forcing us into having inferior health insurance - equality for all is the Socialist motto - so that the government can provide health insurance for those that don't have it. Hey, why don't we do something that is much better (rather than hauling their asses up the hill) like helping them to find jobs and start providing for themselves??

Health care in America is already the best in the world, because the standard isn't countries that steal the working classes incomes to pay for the lazy classes health care. The way to improve our health care system is to cut out the silliness and encourage everyone to take responsibility for their own lives.
