Another week comes to a close

As I sit on the bus on the way home from work, I can’t help but wonder what our dear President is up to right now.  I also can’t help but wonder what traffic will look like. 

These are normal musings I have.  I think about Obama frequently, by usually it’s more like “how do I get people to wake up and vote this moron out.”  Today, I wonder what he’s up to because he’s here in town. 

The Pres. came to Everett today, stood up at the Boeing plant and yapped a bit.  Seeing as Boeing is unionized, and unions are bread and butter to the Dems, that seems reasonable.  Then he hopped into the helicopter and headed south, landing in Kirkland, and should be at one of his two fundraisers tonight. 

My bus goes through Kirkland on the way home.  I really hope Obama being in town hasn’t screwed traffic on the 520 bridge too horribly.  If he’s sticking around on this side of the water, we should be ok, but if he’s headed across into Seattle, I may be here a while. 

Anyone else tired of paying for the fuel, maintenance, and staff aboard Air Force One (not to mention all the Secret Service and miscellaneous other expenses that go with a travelling POTUS) so that he can come out and visit to get more donations and continue campaigning?  I think if a sitting President want’s to campaign, he should pay for all of his own expenses, not get paid for the time spent doing so, and effectively not be the President while he’s campaigning.  The VP takes over his duties, and does as the VP wants for the time the Pres. spends on the road. 

Even better.  No more two term Presidents.  Most of these people do enough damage in 4 years, we sure as hell don’t need them for 8.  Let someone else come in to clean up their mess and make a new mess all their own.

American politics really is ridiculous.  We must be some seriously mental individuals to be involved in this.

Maine Caucus and Ron Paul

It’s very interesting to see what goes on when you have a caucus.  Absolutely ridiculous, 100% tarded, and NOT by mistake.  I don’t know that it’s specifically against Ron Paul, but it sure does seem like it is.  It wouldn’t really surprise me in the least, but I think it’s likely against all but Romney.   Check out the video and post a comment or two.

5 Reasons why Obama’s Proposed Budget is Mule Squeeze that Doesn’t Have a Snowballs Chance in Hell of Being Passed

If you haven’t had a chance to read this crap, the full pdf of the President Proposed Budget can be found at http://is.gd/indZ06

For those wanting a quick overview without going blind on the multi-phonebook sized monstrosity that was produced by the Obama Administration, check out our boy Jamie Dupree’s blog for a great breakdown.  http://blogs.ajc.com/jamie-dupree-washington-insider/2012/02/13/the-obama-budget-2/

1) It calls for raising taxes on “high-earners” – you know, the people that employ you – at a time when unemployment is still at record high numbers.

2) It calls for raising Capital Gains taxes to 20% (currently 15%).  That is a 25% increase in the cost of investing long term in the growth of the economy, which will do nothing but slow investing, and reduce federal revenues from that source.

3) There is no way in hell the House will pass this stupidity. The Republicans still control the House, and passing something that increases taxes this much would promise them no re-election.

4) There is no way in hell the Senate will pass this idiocy.  The Democrats control the Senate, true, but not a single one of them are dumb enough to want to be on record as voting for this economic disaster.  Most likely it won’t get a hearing in the Senate (and they’ll naturally say it’s the fault of the GOP in the House who refused to support it, so reviewing it in the Senate would just be a waste of time).

5) Obama has no desire to see this passed.  He knows it’s BS.  He knows it won’t get passed Congress.  He is (again) using his position to campaign for re-election.  This will be a ploy so he can point at Congress and say “look, I proposed a budget, and those damned evil, greedy Republicans won’t let it through.”

Yes, Obama-lama-ding-dong, we’re on to you.  There are enough morons in this nation who are too stupid to see what is happening, but there are a few intelligent people that actually pay attention left here as well.  Too few for my tastes, but we’re not extinct, and we know you are a lying, manipulative, statist jerk-off who doesn’t give one tiny little shit about the people of this nation or our freedoms. 

Unfortunately for we the people, the GOP can’t be bothered to have candidates that are worth voting for, so it looks to me like you’re going to have a second term in which to attempt to destroy this once great nation.  You’ve done a hell of a bang up job so far; I can’t wait to see what new entitlement bullshit and liberty-removal tools you’ll come up with for the second term.
