They did not Fall from the Sky

The President keeps lashing out at the Republicans as a do nothing Congress. He speaks as if the Republicans were just plopped into those Washington D. C. seats from some unknown Scotty who beamed in to replace the Democrats.

I don’t know if the President understands that they weren’t put there by some alien force. The majority in the congressional seats were put there through an ELECTION-put there by the citizens voting them into those seats. This is how our government works. People get elected to REPRESENT their constituency-that is why they are called Representatives, Mr. President. We aren’t as stupid as you would think us to be out here in the hinterland.

You can mock the Congress all you want, but when you do you are mocking the very citizens who elected them to represent them.

When either party starts being too partisan and talks about the other party, they are punching the citizens in the face for supporting their party. That is what everyone is sick of.

Perhaps that is why so many citizens are registering as Independents, so when the politicians start degrading them, they will only be talking about the elected ones and not those of us who vote for them.

It would be a great idea for those elected officials to stop putting down the Tea Party Republicans as the block to any progress in Congress. We are the citizens who voted them in and it does you no good to call us idiots, we aren’t. They are doing what it is they were elected to do, as a majority.

The only alternative is that the President is actually talking about the Senate as not doing anything because Mr. Reid certainly is so afraid of things passing that he won’t even bring anything up for a vote-there is a real piece of work-USELESS just totally USELESS.

Michelle Obama thought the electorate pretty smart when her husband was elected, no complaining from her.  Now they think we are dumb for changing the majority in Congress from their party to the other.  You can’t have both ways.

Evolution or Devolution

I recall the Fridays after Thanksgiving as a fun and joyous journey to downtown Detroit to visit Hudson’s. Mom put us in the car to go visit Santa and see all the beautiful decorations adorning every floor of the 15 story department store. The treat came on the 12th floor where Christmas Carol would meet us to escort us to see Santa for a visit. The 12th floor was also the toy department, after the visit it was overwhelming to see all those fabulous toys, I was in awe. Most of the toys where well made and there were few of them. There wasn’t any electronics in those days, we had to use our imaginations to see the wonder of how to play with these toys.
I cannot recall hordes of people trampling over each other for merchandise. I don’t remember Mom ever commenting on anything about something being on sale and having to buy it. Knowing my mom now, she probably already had everything bought well ahead of time.

I have heard the complaints of many a pundit about us conservatives wanting to return to the 1950s, not a bad idea. They though use it as a racial slur to accuse us of wanting to return to pre civil rights days. Oh contrae, it is the civility of the 50s that we long for, we were basically a polite society, yes we did have those who pushed and shoved, but they were few and far between. There were those who were appalled at the lack of civil rights-and most of them were Conservatives (some who beat there chests as the perveyors of civil rights were late commers to the show).

Everyone can blame the merchandisers for this mayhem-they are half the problem the other half is us. What joy do these individuals receive acting as they do? I was appalled to hear of this Black Friday beginning on Thanksgiving night. This is insanity on our society, the proof is in all the videos circulating on the net of what has transpired on the day we were just supposed to go and see Santa and the marvoulous decorations displayed to celebrate the Christmas Season. The more secular we have become the more we are devolving into animals, maybe there is some truth to Darwin’s theory of evolution, but it seems he got the direction wrong.

What do you think?

What is it You can’t Comprehend?

What is it that Dems can’t understand when the phrase “cut spending” is uttered. There is nothing in that phrase that states raise revenues. When we say “cut spending” we mean cut spending. Stop raising the increase in departmental spending, stop having give aways and stop spending frivolous unaccountable distribution of wealth.

Easy to understand-they need a twelve step program-”STOP SPENDING”. Do they need a dictionary or does the word spending have more than one definition if you are an attorney?

I don’t think anyone needs to write a thesis to get the point across about spending. Cut it, kill it and stop the spending. There has been a monster created and it is called big government and it is destroying this country like Godzilla.

Durbin Needs to be Held Accountable

“Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the No. 2 Democrat in the Senate, said Bank of America customers who don’t want to pay a new $5 monthly debit card fee should “vote with their feet” and find a financial institution that won’t charge them for accessing their accounts.

“Get the heck out of that bank,” Durbin said Monday on the Senate floor. “Find yourself a bank or credit union that won’t gouge you for $5 a month. … What Bank of America has done is an outrage.”

What is happening in this country, when a senator can stand on the senate floor, and in his hypocrisy,  impede the fair trade of any business in this country.

There used to be a seperation of business and state in this country, politics was not a part of fair business or bad business.  Bringing politics into business causes markets to fluctuate, and this latest beratement by Durbin has no place in capitalism.

A senator is not supposed to comment on any business in this country.  The recent comments by this Senator Durbin is unethical and unforgivable.  He needs to be sanctioned for the manipulation of a business’ right to exist and conduct it’s business as it sees fit.  Does he think he is Robespierre, trying to get the “peasantry” worked up? It was just this morning Rosanne Barr said they should be beheaded.

What has become of our country when a senator can be so blanant about his being upset with the truth of the reasoning BoA used to justify their fees for debit cards? The Dodd/Frank Bill has caused more problems than it is supposed to solve, only Democrats will take a sledge hammer to kill a fly. The Democrats have been trying for some time to take over business in this country and control their every movement, and this is just one more nail in the coffin of capitalism.

The freedom of speech in this country is for the people to freely speak against the government, it is not for the government to speak against business or it’s own people.

Scum that is what Dick Durbin is, along with all his cohorts in the Senate who have forgotten the role of government.

Somebody Better Check-Pelosi and Stark in Solyndra Debacle

It seems the Solyndra push may have something with the location in Alameda County, Ca.

Perhaps the proximaty to Nancy Pelosi’s district, and Alameda’s Representitive Pete Stark would seem like likely recipients of campaign funds along with Obama.

I think we better look at “all politics being local” along with the bundled funding for the Obama campaign.

Nancy and Pete must have been pretty ticked when Bush wouldn’t fund Solyndra. They must have made sure Obama would, thanks for the 500 billion+ Mr. President. They sure know how to hurt a nation.

Politics don’t make for such strange bed-fellows after all.
