The Obama Tax Increase

Let’s talk taxes. Higher taxes that is. They are on the way. The Lame Duck Congress is trying to let the Bush Tax cuts expire on January 1st, 2011. If they do, we need to call this action what it is – the 2011 Obama Tax Increase. Let me repeat that – the 2011 Obama Tax Increase.
With the support of their leader, Mr. Obama, the outgoing Democrats in Congress (you know, the ones that lost their jobs earlier this month) will give all of us hard working tax payers one more shot to our posteriors before they depart Washington in the form of a tax increase.
They are trying to ‘sell’ this to us as a tax cut for the middle class and a tax hike on the rich. There are a couple of problems here. First how to you give a tax cut to someone who was already given that tax cut by President Bush? Obama acts like extending the tax cuts for those of us making less than $250k a year as if he’s doing us some big favor. Second, his effort to only “Tax the Rich” clearly demonstrates either his ignorance of Capitalism or is out right hatred of it. If you raise taxes on those that create the jobs in this country, they do two things, reduce their workforce and/or raise prices of their goods and services. That means fewer of us will have jobs and if we do, we’ll have to pay higher prices for everything.
If Obama has his way, taxes will go up on those with higher incomes, but what Mr. Obama doesn’t understand, is that ALL of us will have to pay those taxes, either directly or indirectly.

After the Election......

Well, the mid term elections are over. And now that all the ballots have been counted, and all the winners and losers are known, lets see how the left is reacting to their ’shellacking’.

WWOD? Yes, just what would Obama do? Well, it didn’t take long to find out. Simple answer - tuck your tail between your legs and leave town. If you don’t like the lead stories on the evening news, then go make some news yourself - by visiting countries where you are more popular than you are back home. Obviously, we have a President in denial. Does he really believe the reason the left lost so badly in the mid terms is because his “change” didn’t happen fast enough? Mr. President - they simply didn’t like your “change” - period. Wake up and smell the rose garden.

Nancy’s Dance Party - So the election was a sound defeat for the current leader of the House. So what does Nancy do? Well, it’s party time! On your tax dollar, she held a party for her cronies last week in Washington to celebrate the many accomplishments of her Socialist comrades. You know, things like the economy killing Obamacare bill, and the Crap and Trade legislation. Nancy throwing a party after the drumming Democrats took in the mid terms, reminds me of the Delta House throwing a toga party after being put on double secret probation.

Quack - now comes the last gasp of the Socialist Congress lead by Nancy and Harry Reid. It’s the lame duck congress. Their focus will be on once again, trying to get those evil rich people (you know, Republicans) from getting a tax break. Yes, this is about the Bush era tax cuts. They want to extend the tax cuts for those making less than 250K a year, but if you make more, yes, that means you folks who create most of the jobs in this country, then you must be punished for being successful. It just the Socialist way. Hopefully, they will be as successful in their lame duck session as they were in the mid term elections.

Who Will Show Up?

Next Tuesday we all have an opportunity -- an opportunity to change the course of America using the only tool we have – our vote. There will be two outcomes on Tuesday night – either the Obama Democrats will stay in power, or Republicans will take enough seats in the house to obtain a majority – and quite possibly, the Republicans will take control of the Senate. If this were to happen, Mr. Obama would find he is nothing more than a lame duck for his remaining two years on Pennsylvania Ave.
So America, what do you want? A return to fiscal sanity and the return to an economic system based on Capitalism, or possibly six more years of Obama’s Socialist Paradise?
But it all comes down to one thing, who will show up on Tuesday? Will You?

Run Away! Run Away!

With apologies and credit to the film Monty Python and the Holy Grail, there’s one thing Democrats know how to do this election season and that’s to follow King Arthur’s command to “Run Away”. It appears the Killer Rabbit was hot on the heels of Obama’s Congressional Socialist brethren as they ran out of Washington back to their home districts and states – only to once again “Run Away” from anything Obama in a desperate hope that they can once again, fool their constituents that Socialism is the answer to America’s economic problems. To do this, they need to run away from their ‘accomplishments’, like running away from the unpopular healthcare bill – running away from the failed stimulus bill – and running away the bail outs. Democrats can’t run on their record, so expect most to hide from these issues – even hiding from the fact that they are Democrats.
The Socialist Obama and his wife are on the campaign trail asking you to support Democrats so they can finish what they have started – but based on what they have done to this country so far, do you really want them to?

For The Times They Are A-Changin’

Come Senators, Congressmen, Please heed the call. Don’t stand in the doorway, Don’t block up the hall. For he that gets hurt, Will be he who has stalled. There’s a battle outside, And it is ragin’. It‘ll soon shake your windows, And rattle your walls – For the times, they are a-changin’.
Karl Rove better heed the lyrics of Bob Dylan’s song. So should any of his old school ‘professional’ politicians. Change is in the wind. That wind is coming from the Tea Party Movement. To make any negative statement about the winner of Delaware’s Republican Primary, Christine O'Donnell, was just, well, for lack of a better term, stupid. The Tea Party is a movement – a movement that is growing steam – and the one thing that the Tea Party Movement will do best is get out the vote. Karl Rove and the rest of the old school Republican establishment can either change with the times, or be left behind. Sure, Delaware is a traditionally blue state. But that’s no reason to throw in the towel during Ms. O’Donnell’s victory speech!
The last thing America’s average Joe wants to hear after this election is: Meet the new boss, same as the old boss – cause we won’t get fooled again.
But you have to forgive me being a child of the 60s.

Taking Credit....?

I’m sure we all remember a time in our lives when we had a great idea. And the idea was implemented - and it was a great success – in fact, it had a positive effect on people’s lives. And you felt good about what you had done,,, until some Pin Head took credit for your idea and claimed the success was all his doing. Remember how badly that pissed you off?
Well, that must be exactly how former President George W. Bush must have felt hearing the Socialist Obama on TV this past week talking about the end America’s combat mission in Iraq. And while our excuse for a leader was giving his “pat me on the back” speech, he actually mentioned the former President saying no one could doubt President Bush's support for our troops, or his love of country and commitment to our security. Ya Think? Wow, how astounding! Thanks for the news flash there, Barack, I would have never known that.
It is important to note that Senator Obama fought against the troop surge in Iraq and voted to cut funds to supply our troops – two positions totally opposite to Bush’s position of supporting the troops and having a commitment to security.
And then the top it all off, the Socialist Obama blamed all of our economic woes on money borrowed to fund the war. How ridiculous. I’m convinced President Obama thinks all Americans are idiots. Maybe he has a point, after all, we did vote him into office.
Perhaps if our President spent a little time reading history; he’d realize what courage George W. Bush demonstrated in taking down an evil dictatorship – even if there were no WMDs. Saddam was a mad man, capable of anything. The world is a better place without him and no one, not even Obama’s extreme leftist wackos can dispute that fact. History tells us if the leaders of the free world would of had the courage of George W. Bush back in the 1930s, there would be a few more people of the Jewish faith alive today.

Socialist Speak

When liberals get into power, they normally screw up everything; like health care, the economy, and tarnishing America’s standing in the world. So when your resume includes nothing but failure, what do you do? Well, the Democrats have a plan – it’s called Socialist Speak. These are catchy little phrases, concocted by the Democratic National Committee to be repeated over and over by the liberal talking heads every time they get in front of a microphone.
Here are some examples:

“Bush’s Recession” This is pretty recent, but was first introduced by VP Joe “The Gaffer” Biden. It’s an attempt to deflect attention away from the failure of the Democratic stimulus plan and make you think all of our country’s economic woes are totally the fault of President Bush.

“Anti-Immigration” This is the term the left uses to label anyone who supports securing the borders from the flood of ILLEGAL immigrants. This first was used by the President to describe the people who support Arizona Governor Jan Brewer’s efforts to enforce the immigration laws since the Obama administration refuses to do their job.

“Racist Element” First used by the NAACP, it is an attempt to paint anyone who supports or is associated with the Tea Party movement as racist. It is an attempt to perpetuate the myth that white people don’t support President Obama’s policies solely because he is black – trying to downplay the fact that people don’t support his socialist policies which has nothing to do with the President’s race.

I’m sure there’s more “Socialist Speak” to come – as the Democrats can’t run on their unpopular policies in November, their only hope is to slander those that oppose them.
