government

The total set aside by the Obambi administration for Green Energy businesses was $80 Billion.  We’ve heard about Solyndra, Fisker, and A123 among some of the bigger ones.  However, there are a total of 34 companies on this list totaling $3.770 Billion in taxpayer funded loans.  Admittedly, that is only 1/2 of 1% of the total.  But, given that we are talking BILLIONS that still is no chump change when it comes to our taxes.  I found the list here.  We can’t afford having the government pick and choose who the winners and losers are.  Given that Global Warming has been debunked and we now find out that there has been absolutely no global warming over the last 16 years – this is plain ridiculous.

The complete list of faltering or bankrupt green-energy companies:

  1. Evergreen Solar ($25 million)*
  2. SpectraWatt ($500,000)*
  3. Solyndra ($535 million)*
  4. Beacon Power ($43 million)*
  5. Nevada Geothermal ($98.5 million)
  6. SunPower ($1.2 billion)
  7. First Solar ($1.46 billion)
  8. Babcock and Brown ($178 million)

  10. Amonix ($5.9 million)
  11. Fisker Automotive ($529 million)
  12. Abound Solar ($400 million)*
  13. A123 Systems ($279 million)*
  14. Willard and Kelsey Solar Group ($6 million)*
  15. Johnson Controls ($299 million)
  16. Schneider Electric ($86 million)

  33. Konarka Technologies Inc. ($20 million)*
  34. Mascoma Corp. ($100 million)

While it has essentially been an assumption and campaign rhetoric that should Obambi be elected we would get 4 more years of the same bad policies – it was just that – assumption and supposition. Now – it is fact:

Democrats lay out second-term wish list for President Obama

These quotes from the article above posted at The Hill

An Obama victory in November would lend the president a new fistful of political capital as he confronts Republican leaders over how to avoid the fiscal cliff and steer the polarized country through the next four years. More than a month before November’s elections, his allies in the House are already offering tips for how to spend it.

“He’s got to continue to concentrate on jobs,” Rep. Bill Pascrell said last week as the House was leaving town for a long, pre-election recess.

Uh – Mr. Pascrell – if he concentrates on jobs any more – there will be absolutely NO jobs left!  His jobs policies have been to destroy jobs.  No thanks.

“I’m hoping he’ll do immigration reform,” said Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-Texas).

Mr. Cuellar – is that code for complete amnesty and open borders?  You don’t think doing an end around Congress was enough when he gave amnesty to all those illegal immigrants last month? The only thing we want in immigration reform – is – well – no reform.  Enforce the damned laws that are ALREADY on the books!

“We should get back to an energy policy – one that acknowledges that climate change is real,” said Rep. Peter Welch (D-Vt.).

OMFG!  Climate change is real?  Where the Fudgecicle did that idea come from?  Global warming has been debunked – in case you’ve had your head in the sand these past 2 years.  Your idiotic ideas that we have global warming is what is already guiding his energy policy.  Have you looked at the price of gas and consumer products lately? We can’t afford any more of Obambi’s non-energy producing policies!

“The critical issues will be revenue generation … and … a concerted push on immigration reform,” said Rep. Raul Grijalva (D-Ariz.).

Obviously, Mr. Grijalva is in the same corner as Mr. Cuellar when it comes to open borders and complete amnesty. As for his “revenue generation” I think we all know what he means – increase taxes. Despite the fact Keynesian economics and tax increases have been proven wrong and bad for the economy countless times – all these idiots really want is to find a way to get more money for their pet projects and to continue to enslave our poor and lower class on the government plantation.  If you’re serious about revenue generation – how about lowering taxes – especially corporate taxes and create policies that actually incentivises investors, business owners, and entrepreneurs to build their businesses.  In other words – read some Milton Friedman or Thomas Sowell books – you might learn how our capitalist system and economy actually works.

“I think he’d want his administration to start on healthcare,” said Rep. Mike Honda (D-Calif.).

Oh, good Lord, Mr. Honda! Obamacare wasn’t enough?  The nationalization of our healthcare system isn’t enough for you? What the hell more can you guys in Congress possibly do with healthcare that you haven’t already done?  The best healthcare system in the world is being reduced to third-world status and you want to do more? Have you looked at what is happening in Canada, Greece, the U.K., Germany, and other countries with nationalized healthcare? It is failing miserably and causing a major financial crisis in those countries. Leave our healthcare system alone. Repeal Obamacare. If you want to work on healthcare – reduce the regulations that have overinflated the costs. Provide affordable access – not insurance.  Idiot.

“Debt and jobs,” Welch said. “That’s the fundamental issue: How are we going to deal with the debt in a way that promotes growth?”

Welch? Aren’t you the same idiot that believes in global warming? Debt and Jobs? Every policy this administration has advanced the past for years has increased the debt and decreased jobs! Do you really need another primer on how to deal with the debt and promote job growth?  Cut the debt in half – get rid of 50% of the government off the top – get your job killing policies off the books, and lower taxes.  Start drilling again and get rid of the EPA, Department of Energy, and the Department of Education to start with.  How the hell did you get elected?

If these quotes from current Congressmen aren’t enough to persuade a person to vote against Obambi and for Romney – try this on for size:

Although the Republicans are expected to keep control of the House, an Obama win amid a lingering jobs crisis would – at least in the eyes of Democrats – validate some of the policies the president has adopted on the campaign trail and pressure Republicans to reach deals on them. Indeed, some leading Republicans have said an Obama victory would be “a referendum” for raising taxes on the country’s highest earners, one of Obama’s top priorities.

The power of post-election momentum was evident four years ago when Obama was swept into the White House in a wave of Democratic victories that allowed the party to secure the early passage of their controversial economic stimulus package and paved the way for the enactment of sweeping healthcare reforms the following year.

Although voter enthusiasm toward Obama waned, reelection would give the president new – if fleeting – leverage in his negotiations with GOP leaders over a range of issues.

His House supporters are hoping he uses that leverage to fight for a long list of Democratic priorities that were lost to the partisan battles of the last Congress.

The highlighted sections are mine. As I said in the headline – 4 more of the same crap – but at lightspeed.  This country can’t afford another 4 years of this anti-American dolt.

Romney/Ryan for America in November

Wow, seems like forever since I added a post. Real world interfering again.

So, on to the main subject – the October 3d debate. The first of three. I’ve read several articles, mostly lamestream media, all predicting Obambi to be the victor. I’ve also read that Romney’s strategy is going to be one of being the fact checker and calling Obambi out on his lies and pointing out his failures as it relates to the economy.

This is no doubt going to be an interesting debate. I want to see how P-BO is going to wiggle his way out of it. Apparently, Romney has been prepping for weeks. I only hope the Romney from the Florida debate wear he put a smackdown on Newt shows up. Obama, no doubt, is a smooth talker. He has the media and loony progressives on his side that believe everything he says and continues to peddle and advance his Marxist ideology as mainstream.

Given this week there is absolute proof Obambi’s strategy of making the poor and lower class members of this country entirely dependent on the government (did everyone see the “Obama phone” video?) Mitt is entirely right about the 47%. He is going to have a tough time promoting the idea of independence and self-sufficiency to a majority of the electorate. It still amazes me how far left and away from the founding fathers this country has moves.

I’ll be watching these debates closely. I hope the rest of you will be too.

So, we lose an ambassador and three consulate staffers in addition to injured service members in Libya – and now we find out that the POS POTUS we have hasn’t read a single security briefing leading up to the attack. Not only that, but we knew 48 hours in advance there was going to be an attack on this consulate – and it turned out to be a coordinated attack – not some idiot uprising as the result of an anti-pedophile prophet youtube movie as this idiot administration would lead you to believe.  AND – they deny that this major anti-American uprising has absolutely nothing to do with America or our policies!  WTF?  This is the MOST inept freakin administration this country has ever known.

So – as shown above there was intelligence 48 hours in advance, the President hasn’t reviewed the security briefings in two weeks leading up to the attack, and a local Libyan security official even warned the ambassador that his security was lacking.  In fact – there wasn’t even any U.S. Marines protecting this facility – it was protected by Libyan security forces who actually aided and abetted the mob that killed our Ambassador and staffers. We also have learned that as early as September 4th the U.S. was provided intelligence that there would be major uprisings and attacks on U.S. and Israeli embassies in Cairo.  Do you suppose if POS POTUS had actually read the security briefings and connected the dots that this could have been prevented?  Of course it could have.  Yet, this administration is trying to cover their asses and are now claiming they HAD NO INTELLIGENCE and could not have prevented the attack!  BULL SHIT!!!

This POS POTUS and administration, as is the usual motive, rather than stand firmly and condemn the attacks on our sovereign soil and citizens – went right out and apologized to the terrorists!!! Now, they’re trying to backtrack the whole thing and deny there was ever an apology made and they did not clear the statement coming from the Cairo Embassy.  Well, in case this POS POTUS has forgotten – the buck stops with him.  HE and HE alone is responsible for ALL of his administration, their actions, their statements, and every policy regardless of whether he personally was involved.  The POTUS IS RESPONSIBLE.  But, the inept dipshit that he is – lays blame, deflects blame, and accepts no responsibility for anything.

We have to get these damned progressive socialist apologist shitheads out of this administration immediately!  We get an opportunity in November to change the course of this country. Never in the history of this country has America been as weakened and seen as weak by the international community as we are now.  You know, its gotta suck when the previously most inept POTUS in this country has to correct the current most inept POTUS.  Carter even corrected Obambi that Egypt is an ally. Me, personally, after the Islamofascist Brotherhood took over Egypt – they should never ever be considered an ally ever again. Their status as a non-NATO ally needs to be revoked immediately.  The entire middle east has become one big Islamofascist anti-American hotbed of terrorists and terrorist sympathizers.

I guess one of the biggest surprises, which shouldn’t be much of a surprise at all, is that this idiotic mainstream media that we have, rather than act as true journalists and the “Fourth branch of government” acting as the watchdog over our government has decided to aide this POS POTUS in covering up his idiocy and ineptness over the Libyan consulate attack and uprising in the middle east rather than press him for answers.  The MSM has become complicit in the deaths of our citizens abroad.  Romney made a forceful speech and condemned the attack as well as condemn the Obambi administration for their apology.  Rather than stand behind Romney – they attacked him for his attack on this administration.  They should be out there pressing this administration – not attacking a man who gets it.

Sorry, I know I haven’t posted in a while. I was actually out of town this past week for my real-world work and wasn’t able to find any time.  I was hoping to post up about the DNC convention. Oh well.  But, I do have this – yes – you read that title right.  I was contacted by LearnStuff about “The Hazards of Corn.”  I was thinking the same thing as you – okay – I’ll bite – probably some liberal group wanting me to convert.  Afterall, what can be so dangerous about corn?  As you may or may not know – I put up a post about HFCS 2 years ago to this day – so – I figured this was probably something related to that.  Well, I was wrong.  I was directed to the below infographic.  Some of this, I already knew – and you being smart readers – probably knew about a lot of this as well.

Big Bad Corn
This is proof that our government is definitely picking winners and losers.  If you’ve seen the movie or read the book Atlas Shrugged then this should make you cringe. Make sure you click on the Infographic and head out to LearnStuff to read more on this subject and a lot of other studies they’ve done.

I really love Clint Eastwood.  I grew up watching his Spaghetti westerns (my all time fave is The Good, The Bad, The Ugly) – I thought he was awesome in all the Dirty Harry movies and it was great seeing him try something different with his Any Which Way you Can movies.  I think he is one of the greatest actors of all time.  Watching him tonight at the RNC was just sad.  Do I think he could still kick my ass? Probably – but – his delivery was slow and uncomfortable.  It was uncomfortable watching it.  If you haven’t seen it – here is the video of the speech.

He makes some great points.  But, the delivery was hard to watch.
