OBAMA, HOW MUCH DO YOU NEED

hello america! please tell me that i'm wrong......

already the pro-obama biased media is trying to set george bush up for obamas spending::

350 billion dollars bush released to obama that obama requested & is just sitting there;
758 billion dollar bill obama signed into law;
450 billion dollars about to go through congress; that's

1trillion, 558 billion dollars &, it all has to go to obama. & guess what america, there's more coming...bet on it. but, more importantly one should ask, why do you need all of this money before you have a well constructed plan to use it?

the stock markets are direct reflectors of all this spending without a well thought out plan. & obamas rhetoric about what he wants to do with the money is opposite of what he actually does.
the stock markets know 'bad money' when they see it &, the money & plans coming out of washington are 'bad'. in fact, wall street knows money better then the whole us government put together.

WHY RAISE THE TAXES NOW?

hello america! the more obama talks, the more the stock market falls. you see, they know him like i do. he tells you one thing & does the opposite. this has always been his M.O.

well, you voted for change & that's what you're getting. obama is about to change a lot of things & his changes will have a direct effect on your life style. here's just a few:::

obama wants to raise the taxes on businesses &, that is not going to go over well. he is going to force those that run those businesses to look elsewhere to do business or close up. he is about to create a bigger unemployment problem then the present one. history will show that we have lost a lot of companies because of taxes. what messege is obama not understanding? either he is deaf & blind or, he has his own agenda for this country & folks, it's not a good one. perhaps obama doesn't see the big companies down-sizing , folding up, moving overseas, &/or filing for bankruptcy. when you charge them more, you end up hurting the little guy. it's a fact.

obama wants to raise the taxes on the wealthy &, that is not going to go over well. for one thing, it's the wealthy ones that own or run a lot of the businesses in this country. it's the wealthy ones that fund a lot of the charities that america needs. if obama thinks he can 'force' them to pay more & get less, he's going to cause them to do less & spend less. who do you think buys those big-end items? who do you think buys those multi-million dollar homes? who do think owns those private lear jets? now, you may not like this but, when you go messing with their money, there are going to be negative repercusions for this nation on a massive scale.

obama wants to raise the capitol gains tax. this is basically a tax on profit &, it will be designed to
hit the rich. all of the above arguements are all in play here.

as is becoming very usual with obama, he is wrong when it comes to raising any taxes at this time. if anything, he should be lowering them to provide incentives for the wealthy & businesses to spend more & retain more employees.

obama took an oath to protect & defend this country...there should be something added to that oath about screwing the people he's there to serve.

OBAMA-STILL NO GOOD NEWS!

hello america! by now you've awakened to the news that obamas 75 billion dollar bailout for homeowners is really a piece of crap---small wonder, huh? it seems that just 5 states are going to get the bulk of that money &, without knowing who they are yet, i'll bet you can find a big-named congressperson from that state attached to it. if you listen to what obama tells you-it sounds fine but, when he converts his words to actions, his actions are in dirrect conflict with his words. he said this 75 billion dollars was for those that played by the rules but, you are about to see that is not the case. this money will bailout more of those that havn't earned it. you shall see.

another problem with obamas bill is this: most states have welfare programs that 'force' able-bodied persons to seek employment or training for employment------however, if states accept this welfare money, they must revamp their programs to reflect that no able-bodied person has to seek employment. go figure......

citibank/citigroup, just after obama siad the government would not take it over, will bail them out again & take 40% control of it. this is partial nationalization-it is also an experiment & if it works, the other banks needing help will also fall into federal hands. i love it.

want more bad news---that group (acorn) that obama gave grants to, worked for, worked with &, sued citigroup for, is on the move again---they say that just because you can't afford your home is no reason to be kicked out of it. please bear in mind that obamas bill, which is now law, opens the door for them to recieve up to 4.5 million dollars of your money. happy aren't you?

surely, there can't be any more bad news, right? wrong! obama is going to unveil his budget plans &, i can tell you now, you are about to pay. it won't affect me because i'm going to hang up my working clothes. oh, one more thing..all those people living in those free rentals because of katrina, just got an extention from obama. why leave a rent free dwelling to go & find one you have to pay for?

obama, you truely are everything i thought you were. i'm sorry to see that you so fooled america but, i have no worry about you being elected another term...i have to just get through this one with your sorry butt.

DOING TOO MUCH VERSES DOING NOTHING AL ALL

hello america! i don't use this site to spread fear or pessimism. i do use it to speak my mind as truthfully as i can &, although i don't leave 'links' to back up what i write, feel free to ask any questions you may have. i will provide that backup to you. that being said, i must say the following.

is there a danger in doing too much as opposed to not doing anything at all? well, the answer lies in whether or not the doing is 'constructive & productive' verses whether or not the not doing will solve its own problems. one might say that only time will tell. but, but most americans are smart & usually know the difference between soft cotton balls & mushy, smelly dog turds. as i said, most americans are smart but, sometimes you have to get them to dig down deep within themselves to pull out the right anwsers-----&, for them, this is their lucky day because i, knowitall, shall do the digging for them.

in obamas haste to get something done for the 'good' of this country, you have to really look hard at whatall he really did...he's closing gitmo & stopped the trials; he's allowing "our" money to fund foreign abortions; he's allowing labor unions to take the forefront for federally funded jobs & building; he's allowed 350 billion dollars to just sit around doing nothing since his swearing in; he's broken his own rules about transparency & high ethics; he pressured congress with a deadline to pass a bogus non-stimulative bill that he signed into law; he's trying to bring the census department into the whitehouse under his control; he's allowing illegal aliens to get health care without proper documentation at our expense; he's going to dole out 75 billion dollars of our money to try & keep people in their homes; he raised the federal tax on cigarettes a minimum of $.62 per pack; he did relatively little to ensure bipartisan support; he's giving our money to some states that don't even want it & they have no say in the matter; he's preparing to allow the
federal gov to take control & run some of the banks; he's about to re-enact the 'fairness doctrine'; he's planning to institute a 'universal health care system' for this country; he's planning to reveal his fiscal budget that will be all about spending; he's forcing states to raise the unemployment compensation tax if they accept the unemployment bailout money; he's using our money to build a high-speed rail service from las vegas to los angeles; he's preparing to allow about 12 million illegal aliens to gain citizenship; he's using hilary clinton to keep the pressure on china for them to continue buying our 'debts'; &, although there is more, let's just end it with this::::he's all over tv & running around the country spreading his 'doom & gloom' crap instead of instilling confidence in the american people; &, he's expanded government at our expense.

so, yes there is a danger in trying to do too much, too fast-as opposed to not doing anything at all. in the case of obama, it is a grave danger.

STOP THE BAILOUTS, PLEASE

hello america! obama, from day 1, has been telling us just how dire our present situation is &, i have a problem with that. obama is playing on our fears. he's very good at that. america, in your heart, you know that no matter what the government does, this nation will come out on top. what mr pessimistic obama seems to have forgotten is, america is the people, not the government &, in dire times, we are at our best as a people. we will help those truely in need without being asked to. when the chips are down, we stand up-always have/always will.

a little trip back in history would be good for obama & his crew...this country was founded by the people-not government...remember the boston tea party & paul revere? remember all the disasters we've been through? we were there with donations, goods, services & open arms &, when we couldn't do any of that, we were there with the tv & prayers.

we are going through some very tough times but, in time, we will recover. yes, the loss of jobs is hard on families but, we've been losing jobs since the beginning of time. but, for the government to come in just start passing out my money in order for some of the people to keep those jobs is wrong. we didn't bail out the airlines indusry &, although they are still having problems, they're still putting those planes in the air. k-mart went bankrupt, layed off lots of people---look at it now &, they didn't get a bailout. yes, those laid off went through some tough times but, has anyone taken the time to do a study on their regrowth?

america, the auto industry got a bailout that didn't help a bit. they are back at the table for more &, after they get it, they'll be back for even more. what's the point of bailing them out if they're only going to turn around & lay off more workers. wasn't that the main purpose of the bailout to keep their employees employed? besides, american made cars are not going to sell---they're cheaply made, drink too much gas &, cost to much---it's that simple. i think it's ironic to say they're american made when damn near everything on them is imported.

another reason i'm against bailing them out is:::if those union workers making $24-$45 per hour didn't put anything away for a rainy day, that's on them. but they've got obama on their side &, he's partial to union labor.

america, none of the bailouts have done what they were designed to do. they just don't & won't work.

they bailed out the banks & the banks froze the loans, bought another bank, merged with other banks &, won't disclose how that money was spent. yeah, help them some more.

they bailed out the auto industry & they are still laying off workers & not making a product worthy of money. yeap, they reall y need our help.

they bailed out fannie & freddy & homes are still being foreclosed on & the ceos are still making big bucks. obama, please tripple what you first wanto give them.

america, our government needs to stick to running the country, not business. fannie & freddy are examples of why they should they should just let the chips fall where they may...we will recover on our own.

GOVERNMENT RUNS LIKE MY HOUSE RUNS

hello america! have you ever noticed that, in the past, states & cities have all cried "broke" & yet, they fixed their own problems without federal assistance? no matter how you address the issues-it all boils down to simple math. if you spend more then you make, you're going to have financial problems---we all learned that at an early age---that's why we had to deliver newspapers from our red wagons, baby sit, moe grass, clean windows &, collect golf balls from the waters. now maybe this is "old school" but, it hasn't changed one little bit. the mechanics are still in place. if you spent more then your 'allowance', you went out there & found ways to cover your wants. back in the day, we would do things for the neighbors that would give us an extra 'income'---&, then there were people like me that found it easier to 'take' (even by force) from somebody else. i had a simple motto---if i didn't have enough-you had too much.

over the years &, after getting my ass beat too many times for my devious actions, i've come to accept the american way...which is, if you can't afford to pay cash-charge it & the hell with the payments. besides, it's a lot easier then fighting face to face. that being said, most of todays homeowners can't afford to pay their mortgage (for whatever reason), because of their "other" debts. it's not the mortgage that is hurting them so much as it is the other 'stuff' they think they have to have...such as two or three cars, that brand new tv & stereo system, 2,000 dollar plus boom box speakers in their rides, name brand clothing, all the latest cd's even when they listen to old school only, hosting elaborate cook-outs & parties, attending sporting events, getting their hair, nails &, feet done weekly, going out every weekend to the 'clubs' to party &, leasing that fab ride you can't afford. oh, & did i mention the maintenance of their animals? on top of all that, you have the cost of children & wives &/or girlfriends. gotta eat & drink. gotta tell time & you can't tell time on a cheap $10.00 watch, can you? &, all the while, you just have to have the bling-bling &, it has to be better then anyone else's........it's called 'living above your means' & it's why this country &, damn near everyone living in it, is in debt. it's the american way-always has been/always will be.

well, the people that become politicians are just like us & most of them grew up just like us. &, sadly, they run our government just like we run our homes. america, you can bitch & gripe all you want &, call me all those 'not-so-nice' names but, after you read this, you'll come to admit it's the truth & "THE TRUTH IS RIGHT" as always.

no matter what level of government you look at, you can compare it to your home. so, let's start with county/city government. they all start with a yearly budget-they know what they have coming in & they know much they have going out. the problem arises because somebody on the city council wants brand new computers or new police cars but, it wasn't included in the budget so, they just borrow the 'extra' money from their state (UNLIKE OUR FEDERAL GOVERNMENT THAT WILL VOTE THEIR BILLS THROUGH WITHOUT EVEN CONSULTING US AT OUR EXPENSE)---well now they have a debt that wasn't funded & now they have to figure out a way to fund it. they are 'buying' things they can't afford & they don't stop there. they have to put up some extra stop signs & lights that weren't in the budget plus, they need to put a new face on their city hall building. oh, don't forget those 10 extra firemen they want to hire. they spend above their means.

well america, we do the same:::we have that mortgage payment that is close to 40% of our income (pretty much the same with those that rent homes &/or apartments) &, we have those credit card bills that just won't go away. but, we need a new washer & dryer, or stove, or refridgerator &, we have that insurance payment, tv-cable-phone payment, car gas & maintenence payment, &, we can't send our kids to school in crappy gear &, they must have their i-pods & cell phones, &, somebody in the family isn't happy waiting to get on the computer so they have to have a lap-top, & i, being the head-of-the-house just have to have all those expensive tools to do those 'do-it-yourself' home projects I never have time for, & football season's just starting & i have to get that nfl package so i can invite all my buddies over-for that matter, i got to get 2 more tv's.

america, you know i'm right &, i didn't even mention a lot of things we 'can't' do without like magazine subscriptions & QVS & the food bill. we live above our means & we only try to correct this problem when it's too late. oh, what about that roof that just started leaking & the only thing you know about the roof is where it is? or that transmission that won't go into reverse? or that relative that just passed away & you have to travel from ny to cali & your boss is giving you crap for having to take off during his busy season? &, one of the worst ones is, how many times do we have food in the house & yet we order out?

the only difference between us & the government is, they can make us pay for their wants---we don't have that option-they'll come & repo our homes/or evict us, they'll repo our car/s or stereo systems or washer & dryers & we still have to make the make the payments.

so, come on, america, tell me how wrong i'm not. men of america, as a man it almost pains me to say this but, any down-to-earth-female can run our budgets better then we can. they have a knack for it. we will spend ourselves crazy & then blame everybody but ourselves---it's a fact. most families argue over money/debt-&, if we men were not as proud as we like to think we are, we would give the women the checkbook & paychecks & allow her to run the finances of the home.

so, when i say the running of government is very simular to the way we run our own homes, what arguement do you have to tell me i'm wrong?

WE'VE BECOME A NATION OF LIES

hello america! this roland burris thing is a joke but, the illinios apple does not fall far from the illinios tree. but, i'm the guy that sees things that are not there to be seen. illinios has always been a hotbed for 'dirty' politicians &, will remain so. however, that's not to say that there aren't some good ones from there---i just know of any.

anyhow, although the system gave burris a hard time to get in the senate, that same system welcomed him with open arms because it gave the democrats another seat. &, they needed it because without him, they would not have passed obamas non-stimulus bill.

if the fbi has burris on audio, which is slowly being revealed now, they had him on audio before he was sworn in but, somehow, this little tidbit was hidden until now. it's all politics people-politics 2009. &, burris is an idiot---the more he talks after saying he won't, the more he sinks himself & the system. it was either him or franken &, franken may not make it. the dems would have dug up bettsy ross to fill that seat & then reburied her.

america, it has reached that point where trust is not the bigger issue---it boils down to who can you distrust the most. case in point::::obama::::he had big plans for middleclass america & infrastructure jobs during his campaigning & now that he's the president, look at just how little he's doing for infrastructure jobs & the middleclass. i don't make this stuff up. another pledge of his was to help small businesses---what does his 'cure all' bill do for them?

my nation of people, it seems like you have to lie to get anywhere in this country. if you can lie, cheat or, screw the people, you will be rewarded. don't believe me-just look at obama & his administration. in the case of burris, the reward will be short-lived. he needs to go.

can't wait until the next election to see who votes for the one that lies the best.
