IT’S JUST MATH

“This is not class warfare.  It’s math.” These are the words of President Obama on September 19th in defense of his claim that raising the taxes of a few to pay for services used by many is justifiable. This is his justification for asking the wealthiest 1% to “Pay a Little More,” or, as he [...]

NEW SPEECH, SAME CRAP

You know, I was planning on going through the President’s Rose Garden Speech, but after nearly four pages of dissecting lies, misrepresentations, and redundant generalities, I gave up. The way I see, if the President isn’t going to say anything new…or at least truthful…then I didn’t need to waste my time. In case you don’t [...]

READ THE BILL – PART 2

“Pass This Bill Right Away.” When I last posted about the President’s “American Jobs Act,” this was the crux of his argument, that Congress needed to pass this bill right away, and that the population needed to contact their Representatives to tell them to do just that. Not to read it, not to discuss it, [...]

THE OBAMA JOBS CAMPAIGN

“You should pass this bill right away.” Seven little words. If there’s anything to be taken from the President’s speech on September 8, 2011, it is this little phrase, and the very clear pressure that it represents. Throughout the President’s speech, the urgency of passing the “American Jobs Act” as quickly as possible has been [...]

President Obama is at it again. Now, I know what you’re thinking: “Todd’s going to slam the President for being an idiot…AGAIN,” and I suppose you’re right. Even President Obama’s SUPPORTERS are getting fed up with him (as evidenced by the audience’s reaction to Rep. Maxine Waters and the Congressional Black Caucus regarding criticizing President [...]

ANOTHER BAD IDEA

Time keeps on slippin’…slippin’…slippin…and, apparently, Congress and the President have made absolutely no headway into dealing with the whole Debt Ceiling/Budget Crisis that could mean that, within just two weeks, Social Security Beneficiaries may not get their checks, the military may not get paid, and the entire economy may collapse. Well, at least that’s what [...]

SOME PEOPLE JUST DON’T GET IT

I want to know what is so confusing about the fact that the Federal Government has NO MONEY and is currently facing a Debt/Deficit Crisis? I mean, really, haven’t we all been hearing about the terrible and imminent danger to our “entire way of life” as a result of hitting the Debt Ceiling on August [...]

SO NOW YOU WANT TO COMPROMISE?

The President has made it clear that his line in the sand regarding the ongoing Debt/Deficit Debate is that the Republicans will have to compromise on Taxes. In exchange, he’s willing to consider reform to Entitlement Programs, and what he considers to be massive spending cuts. Four Trillion, in fact, is currently “on the table”…over [...]
