Friday Funnies – and – I met The Tampa Pirate

Posted by: The BoBo  //  Category: Friday, Funnies, Humor, Politics

Hi All – first – before we get to the funny stuff – just wanted to let everyone know that I met The Tampa Pirate this evening.  What a great guy he is.  I recruited him as a member of our leadership and state development committee for The American Conservative Party of Florida.  We met at a starbucks located in our area.  I didn’t know exactly where it was…however…when I found it…it just so happens to be in the very spot where a 7-11 used to be right outside the neighborhood that I lived in back in 1985 when I first moved from Munich, Germany after my father retired.  Amazing!  Anyway – we chatted for quite some time about blogging, politics, and the ACP…that is…until our wives started blowing up our phones! ;)   Anyway – I’m glad to have met him and I am looking forward to working with him as we grow the ACP here in Florida.  Welcome aboard Tampa Pirate.

Okay – this first one is hilarious – a big h/t to Raider Steve

I never quite figured out why the sexual urge of men and women differ so much. And I never have figu red out the whole Venus and Mars thing. I have never figured out why men think with their head and women with their heart.

FOR EXAMPLE:

One evening last week, my girlfriend and I were getting into bed. Well, the passion starts to heat up, and she eventually says, ‘I don’t feel like it, I just want you to hold me.’

I said, ‘WHAT??!! What was that?!’

So she says the words that every boyfriend on the planet dreads to hear..

‘You’re just not in touch with my emotional needs as a woman enough for me to satisfy your physical needs as a man.’

She responded to my puzzled look by saying, ‘Can’t you just love me for who I am and not what I do for you in the bedroom?’

Realizing that nothing was going to happen that night, I went to sleep.

The very next day I opted to take the day off of work to spend time with her. We went out to a nice lunch and then went shopping at a big, big unnamed department store. I walked around with her while she tried on several different very expensive outfit s. She couldn’t decide which one to take, so I told her we’d just buy them all. She wanted new shoes to compliment her new clothes, so I said, ‘Lets get a pair for each outfit.’

We went on to the jewelry department where she picked out a pair of diamond earrings. Let me tell you… She was so excited. She must have thought I was one wave short of a shipwreck. I started to think she was testing me because she asked for a tennis bracelet when she doesn’t even know how to play tennis

I think I threw her for a loop when I said, ‘That’s fine, honey.’ She was almost nearing sexual satisfaction from all of the excitement. Smiling with excited anticipation, she finally said, ‘I think this is all Dear, let’s go to the cashier.’

I could hardly contain myself when I blurted out, ‘No honey, I don’t feel like it.’

Her face just went completely blank as her jaw dropped with a baffled, ‘WHAT?’

I then said, ‘Honey! I just want you to HOLD this stuff for a while. You’re just not in touch with my financial needs as a man enough for me to satisfy your shopping needs as a woman.’

And just when she had this look like she was going to kill me, I added, ‘Why can’t you just love me for who I am and not for the things I buy you?’

Apparently I’m not having sex tonight either…….but at least that bitch knows I’m smarter than her.

A LETTER TO THE GRIM REAPER

Dear Mr. Grim Reaper,

Just so you know, my favorite politician is Barack Obama.

Thank you

Now is the time to get your gold!

Posted by: The BoBo  //  Category: Politics, making money

This is one of those ads I really don’t mind bringing to you guys since I’m also a customer.  In case you haven’t been paying attention, gold has reached an all-time high.  I was fortunate enough to get in to the market three years ago when the price was $465/oz.  My initial 2006 investment has almost tripled now.

When I buy gold, I buy gold coins.  You also have other options with regards to gold other than gold coins.  You can also buy gold bullion , bars, and even gold certificates to put in your IRA’s.  If you do decide to purchase gold bullion I would recommend buying gold bullion coins.  When I look to buy gold coins I generally mix it up between American Gold Eagles and older coins.  Coins hold an intrinsic value and will not be confiscated by the government as they did during WWI and WWII.

Aurum Advisors is a great resource if you are looking to buy bullion or just want additional information.  I have a favorite local coin dealer that I buy a lot of my coins through.  However, after I found Gold Coins Gain from Aurum Advisors I ordered their information catalog and found that I like them.

When I first got in to the market I thought of gold as an investment.  With the way the dollar is tanking, the announcement by Obama that we can expect double-digit inflation, and with the constant call around the world for a global currency, I am now buying gold as protection.  Gold will always be valuable.  One of the things I look for when I use a gold-broker is their buy-back price.  The closer the buy-back rate is to spot – the better.  If you’re in the market for gold, please follow one of the links and order a catalog from Gold Coins Gain to learn more.

Senate Health Care Bill will lead to Tax Revolt

Posted by: The BoBo  //  Category: America, Politics, Taxes, health care

2074 Pages!  Holy freakin’ hell people!  That bill is even bigger than the damned House version.  Here is just a short list of the taxes that are in this bill – hmm…I thought Obama promised no taxes on the middle-class?

5% Tax on Cosmetic Surgery

40% Tax on “Cadillac Plans” – If you’re single in the cost of your employer based plan is $8,500, and family plan is $23,000 – there will be a 40% tax.

Increase from 1.45 to 1.95% in Medicare tax

$4 Billion in Fees on Medical Device manufacturers (you don’t think this will be passed on to consumers?)

$5 Billion in Fees to pharmaceutical manufacturers (ditto above)

If you don’t have insurance and you “qualify” to be insured, if you’re single you will pay a$95 surchage in 2014 and it raises to $750 in 2016.  A family will have a surcharge of $2250 by 2016.

If an employer has at least 50 employees and does not offer an insurance plan, if they have at least 1 employee who “qualifies” to be insured, that employer will be fined $750 per employee.  That is a minimum penalty of $37,500 just to start off with for only 50 employees.  This will kill small businesses.

It eliminates HSA’s altogether.  It puts a cap on FSA’s at $2,500.  You can’t use your HSA account to pay for over-the-counter medication any longer…and..it raises the medical expenses tax deduction from 7% to 10% of AGI.

In addition, it takes $500 Billion out of Medicare funding.

UPDATEIncludes a monthly “abortion premium fee” to be assessed on everyone that is enrolled in the government run plan.

This is just a short list right now.  I will update this post through out the day as I learn or hear about more.  The word “tax” is mentioned in this bill 124 freakin times! And..just to show you that those idiots up there in Washington have no clue about how insurance works – they added this little piece:

They also would limit total out-of-pocket expenses and prevent insurance companies from denying coverage for pre-existing conditions.

Insurers under the Democratic plans would be barred from charging higher premiums based on a person’s gender or medical history.

They obviously don’t know how underwriting works.  This will either drive costs up for everyone because we will ALL be subsidizing those with chronic illnesses, or it will drive private insurers out of business because they can’t pay the claims because there is no money to cover the chronically ill.  Also, there is a HUGE difference between genders and health care costs.  To not be allowed to increase premiums to cover those costs is ludicrous.  There is no such thing as “one-size-fits-all” insurance coverage unless the premiums are skyhigh for all.

Oh – and did I mention it has a public option?  For cryin’ out loud already!  This bill has absolutely nothing to do with improving the health care system and providing for access to affordable health care.  This is simply the largest power grab by our government in the nation’s history.  This is AMERICA.  We are FREE people.  We do NOT want to live under an oppressive and socialist government.

I predict that if this bill passes – there will be an absolute huge tax revolt in this country.  I will be the first to stand up against it and tell our government – HELL NO! I’m not paying my damned taxes for them to fund something that 34% of this country wants! I believe we’re going to something that will eclipse the Boston Tea Party.  I don’t see any violence erupting – but – you can bet there will indeed be a revolution in this country.

The government gets their power from our taxes.  We can shut this thing, and them, down if we stop giving them our money.  Are they going to arrest 66% of this country if we all refuse to pay our taxes?  We don’t have to support our Federal government at all.  They are pushing things on us that are unconstitutional and we need to stand against it.  If this thing passes – it’s time for the Tea Parties to take it to the next level – a REAL Tea Party Tax revolt.

The BoBo Carnival of Politics – November 15, 2009 Edition

Posted by: The BoBo  //  Category: BoBo, Carnival, Conservative, Democrats, Liberals, Politics, blogs, libertarian

Okay – here’s the next great installment of The BoBo Carnival of Politics. There are some great submissions here – please be sure to check them out. One in particular I want to point out comes from SpkTruth2Pwr – please go visit and read that one. It was in response to my earlier post this week on P-BO and being a Muslim.

I will give everyone a break this week and forgo my usual comments. Quite frankly, it’s because I have an extremely busy day today – but – I also know you guys would sometimes like to read these and come to your own conclusions without my opinions clouding the issues. So – without further adieu -


Conservative

John Prothro presents Fox News is Obama’s Only Friend posted at Obama Takes Over the Hundred Acre Wood, saying, “We all have bad ideas. But we hopefully have friends who tell us they are bad. This Administration needs such a friend. His first task would be to tell Joe Biden it is a bad idea to “spend money to keep from going bankrupt.””

Jared Rhoads presents Let insurers actually compete posted at The Lucidicus Project, saying, “We don’t need a government-run public option; we need to let health insurance companies actually compete on an open market.”

Scott Spiegel presents Hasan Lawyer Considers Twinkie Defense, “American Panic Defense” posted at Scott Spiegel.

Democrats

Joe Manausa, MBA presents Home Buyer Tax Credit Expanded By Congress posted at Tallahassee Real Estate Blog, saying, “Congress has extended and expanded the homebuyer tax credit. The modifications will become effective when President Obama signs the bill, which could occur as early as November 6, 2009.”

Madeleine Begun Kane presents Stewing Over Stupak posted at Mad Kane’s Political Madness.

Madeleine Begun Kane presents Larry King and Carrie Prejean ? Not Headed To The Altar posted at Mad Kane’s Political Madness.

SpkTruth2Pwr presents Muslim – The “Affliction” Americans Fear posted at The Apathy Remedy, saying, “Is America in a War on Terrorism or a War on Muslims? Depending on who you ask, you might get differing responses, which is unfortunate for a country that prides itself on being a “melting pot”.”

Libertarian

Archvillain presents Orwell Was An Optimist posted at A Dark and Sinister Force for Good, saying, “Yet more prosecutorial malfeasance in our so-called “Justice” system. Why aren’t more people getting angry?”

Ann Margrain presents Children in Need, Stay in Need posted at Heroin and Cornflakes, saying, ““Hunger is not inevitable. Malnutrition is not a consequence of food scarcity, but a result of the way economies are organized and of political choices to address—or ignore—the causes of hunger. In the 21st century, we have the means to defeat hunger: we grow enough food, we know enough about redistributive economics, we have the political tools to ensure inclusive decision-making and we can afford to provide the basic needs that protect every person’s entitlement to an adequate, nutritious diet”.”

Ann Margrain presents Prohibition here we come! posted at Heroin and Cornflakes, saying, “Recently much attention has been focused on the on-going drama of U.S. health reform. In President Obama`s weekly address, he talks about how the ‘chatter and ruckus around health insurance reform on television obscures the reality of what’s happening in America.’”

U.S. Common Sense presents Nigel Coleman: idiot posted at U.S. Common Sense, saying, “Nigel Coleman is planning to burn the effigies of Pelosi and Perriello next weekend. This article explains why I think he’s an idiot.”

Ann Margrain presents Corruption in Health? Ozone, amputations and swine flu prevention posted at Heroin and Cornflakes, saying, “In America, through pressure of conformity, there is freedom of choice, but nothing to choose from.” (Peter Ustinov, English actor and writer) Over recent months, many media outlets have raised issues and concerns that are increasingly critical of the “swine flu” jab (H1N1)”

Hey, P-BO- make a damned decision already!

Posted by: The BoBo  //  Category: America, P-BO, Politics, President, Soldiers, Terrorists, Troops

I saw this on The Drudge Report:

Grieving Family Sends Message to Obama – go check out the video

Then there is this report:

Army says morale down among troops in Afghanistan

Last year I put up this post:

Support Our Troop! BRING THEM HOME!

That post was about the idiocy of those left-wing nutjobs using that slogan.  It was about how such slogans actually are detrimental to our service members and to the missions in Iraq and Afghanistan. When these wars in Iraq and Afghanistan broke out, I fully supported them – 100%.  I am still in support of the mission – to kill the damned terrorists and pay retribution for the thousands of lives lost on 9/11.  However, my patience has worn very thin over the past few months.

It was reported that in August General McCrystal sent a request to Obama for an additional 40,000 troops in Afghanistan.  That extra 40,000 troops would be needed in order to complete a successful mission – one that would mean victory in Afghanistan.  One that would help to re-stabilize the region again so that the Afghanistan government could take over security as we did in Iraq.

Instead – P-BO has sat on that report for 3 months now.  He only just this week sat down with his security council on Afghanistan – and – he rejected every single proposal out there – including sending more troops.  Let’s face it – P-BO is indecisive.  He can’t make the tough decisions.  In the time that the request was first made 43 American soldiers have died in Afghanistan waiting for Obama to make a freakin’ decision. That is almost 15 per month.

I am now at a point myself where I am ready to say – Bring Them Home!  Damn it – either give the generals – who actually know how to fight and win a war – all the troops, equipment, and support necessary to win this war and bring our soldiers home in victory – or – just call it quits and bring them all home before more of them die senseless deaths because Obama refuses to make a decision – a hard decision.

The bullshit response coming from the White House and Obama is “Obama won’t be rushed on Afghanistan war.“  What the fuck man?  You campaigned on changing the strategy to focus the efforts from Iraq to Afghanistan.  You’ve been in office for 10 months now.  You hand-picked and placed McCrystal in there yourself about 5 months ago.  What the fuck does this even mean – you won’t be rushed?  How much longer do you need in order to make a decision – one that every day you wait – more Americans are being killed on the battlefield because you won’t follow the advise of the man you chose to assess the situation and make a recommendation?  He gave you that recommendation 3 months ago!!!!

Do you not understand what kind of message this indecisiveness is sending to the rest of the world?  That message is – America is weak – and the President is even weaker.

For crying out loud man, either give the general what he needs to win – or Bring Our Troops Home. Quit playing politics with the lives of our service members.  You alone are turning the Afghanistan war in to another Viet Nam debacle.

Obama admits he is a Muslim

h/t to Mitchel Morey

Watch and be amazed – funny how we never saw any of  these clips in the media over here or heard them on the radio.  Who do you think P-BO has allegiance to, America or Islam?
