RAT'S ASS

The more I listen to Baltimore residents, the more I am of the opinion that the black communities of this country share the same problem as the rest of us: our governments don't give a rat's ass about what we, the people, want or need. 

All of us need to lay down our animosities and join together to bring our federal, state and local governments back into compliance with the the dictates of a democratic form of government. 

Otherwise, we're all to blame.

SHUT THE BASTARDS DOWN

Now we have riots in Baltimore.  Where will they be tomorrow? 

Some time, some how, we've got to put an end to these damned destructive events which damage property, terrify lives and inflame passions.  

And when you are silent on such issues, Mr. President, you are inherently complicit.

FEDERAL BUDGET LEAKS

Mistakes in federal spending costs the taxpayers over $206 billion per year, according to an article in NEWSMAX MAGAZINE.  The proposition is that the government has gotten to be so big, no one can maintain control over its money. 

Fraud, waste and outright abuse account for a significant portion of this leaking money, but clerical errors also play a major role.  

When you bring this subject up to a Washington politician these days, the general response is a shrugging of the shoulders, as if to say, "What do you expect me to do about it?"  

I don't know where you come from, but where I come from, that kind of money will buy a whole lot of beer and wine.  It would also help a whole lot of people out of poverty and off the streets.

FEDS GET READY TO REGULATE INTERNET

The FCC is preparing to regulate the Internet in the interest of "net neutrality."  While you have been resting comfortably on your laurels sending text messages and playing video games, the FCC is set itself up to deal with your Internet access just like it deals with your telephone access, your cellphone access and your radio and television reception.  Isn't that just dandy?  

What does it mean to you? 
  1. Cost Increases - Now that your provider will have to pay federal, state and local taxes, expect them to pass the cost on to you.
  2. Less Innovation - Investors will be less inclined to invest in infrastructure and new business offerings.
  3. Impact of Free Speech - you well know that they will try to regulate content, particularly political content.
  4. Slower speds - In Europe, where governments control the Internet, speeds are about 30 percent slower than in the U.S.
  5. Lost Pricing Plans - If you like your plan, you may not be able to keep it.
  6. Fewer Options - There will be less competition, meaning less marketing gimmicks.
  7. Remote User Usage Costs Will Skyrocket - The regulatory impact will force many smaller providers out of business and the remaining ones will raise prices.

Who do you blame for this?  Oh, I know... never mind; you're busy watching a movie on your computer.

DRAMA ON THE HIGH SEAS

So here we all sit with our eyes glued to the tube or the Internet, watching and waiting for the latest tidbit of news about our aircraft carrier and accompanying cruisers who are tagging along close behind nine Iranian ships which are supposedly loaded with arms and heading for the Hoothis in Yemen.  What in the world is going to happen?  

Well, we all know deep down in our hearts what is most likely to happen: the Iranians are going to end up docking and off-loading their cargo and the Hoothis are going to take possession of whatever it is.  If there's going to be any real action, it'll most likely be the Saudi Arabians bombing the hell out of the cargo after it is off-loaded, or maybe the Egyptians boarding the Iranian vessels for an inspection.  

I don't think the Iranians are going to turn around and head home.  They know, deep down in their hearts, that we won't fire on them.  Now, they may be scared of the Saudi's or the Egyptians, but they most certainly have no reason to fear us.  I'll bet Obama's last nickle that none of our ships will ever fire off even a round of BB gun ammo.  

Complicating matters, of course, is the absolute probability that at least one, if not two or three, Russian missile-carrying nuclear submarines are in the immediate vicinity. 

And Obama says the world is more safe now, under his leadership, than ever before.

CHICAGO GUN CARRIER PREVENTS MASS SHOOTING

Last Friday, a Chicago Uber driver with a concealed carry permit thwarted an attempted mass shooting by pulling his own weapon and shooting a gunman who had opened fire in Chicago’s Logan Square.  Illinois Assistant State’s Attorney Barry Quinn verified that the driver “had a concealed-carry permit and acted in the defense of himself and others,” according to BREITBART.COM. 

According to the Chicago Tribune, the driver was watching “a group of people” walk in front of his car on North Milwaukee Avenue just before midnight when 22-year-old Everardo Custodio allegedly “began firing into the crowd.” The Uber driver pulled his own gun and “fired six shots at Custodio,” wounding him in “the shin, thigh, and lower back.” 

Unbelievably, a concealed-carry-permit holder used his gun to prevent mass murder.  Rahm Emmanuel, the Chicago Mayor who valiantly fought the courts to keep his rigid gun control agenda intact, must be beside himself.

WALMART'S "PLUMBING" PROBLEMS

Maybe it was the unflattering pictures of some of their customers; maybe it was union activism.  On April 13, 2015, several separate Wal-Mart locations in the United States abruptly closed their doors. The cited reason for the closures (according to the chain’s corporate offices) was plumbing problems at the affected stores in Tulsa, Oklahoma; Tampa, Florida; Midland and Livingston, Texas; and Pico Rivera, California. 

Calls to county and city building departments are disclosing no citations for problems or permits for repairs or upgrades.  Letters to the counties involved indicate that the employee layoffs are permanent. 

Now, Wal-Mart doesn't just simply build stores on spec; they go through a lot of pre-planning hoops to be certain that the stores will succeed and demand is there.  So, what is the REAL reason for these store closures, and why isn't Wal-Mart coming clean?  Just what IS to blame?

COMCAST DOES IT AGAIN

Comcast has had a series of bad public relations blunders.  The most recent involved a Minnesota man whose house burned to the ground on April 1st.  Lost in the fire was documentation regarding the owner's account number with Comcast. 

The man's daughter called Comcast trying to cancel the now unusable service, but Comcast refused, insisting that the account number must first be provided to authenticate the request.  The owner offered to provide his social security number, but Comcast refused to budge.  

This continuing saga of horrible nightmares created by Comcast is certainly indicative of the management culture trickling down from the top; imagine how big the problem will become if Comcast is allowed to merge with Time Warner. 

Unfortunately for America, Comcast is but one of many companies which have decided that the consumer is the enemy.  

And who do we blame for this?  The stockholders who create the atmosphere which allows it to happen.

BAD NEWS FOR AL SHARPTON?

CNS NEWS is reporting the U.S. Justice Department issued a stern reminder on Monday that when it comes to income taxes, "no one is above the law or below the radar."  

“Those individuals who choose to accept these benefits and yet turn a blind eye to their federal tax obligations by failing to file required returns, filing false and fraudulent returns, and evading the assessment and payment of tax due will be pursued for their criminal conduct. No one is above the law or below the radar.”  

Gosh, I'll bet Al Sharpton is shaking in his sneakers.

I.S.I.S. AT OUR BORDER

NEWSMAX.COM is reporting the existence of an I.S.I.S. encampment in Mexico, just outside of El Paso, Texas.  "Coyotes" reportedly working for the notorious Juarez Cartel are involved in helping to "move ISIS terrorists through the desert and across the border between Santa Teresa and Sunset Park, New Mexico."

Moreover, east of El Paso and Ciudad Juárez, cartel-backed coyotes are smuggling members of the jihadi terrorist group "through the porous border between Acala and Fort Hancock, Texas," Judicial Watch reported.  

Good job there, Barack.  Let's keep that border wide open.

HILLARY AND I.S.I.S.: PEAS IN A POD

Yes, they're both on the same page: they want to takes us back to yesterday. 

If you recall correctly, it was the lack of intelligence and refusal to recognize imminent signals during the final year of Bill Clinton's term that allowed 9/11 to happen. 

Yes... by all means... let's go back to yesterday.

SENSELESS IN AMERICA

After all of these sick years with Obama in office, (even the staunchest of Obama supporters are now questioning their positions), with Americans everywhere expressing fatigue from the constant lies and spins... now the country is entertaining the idea of eight more years of the Clintons? 

What are they drinking and smoking, anyway? 

Yeah, I know... Blame Bush.

HILLARY IS RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT

Now is the time for all good Americans who ever received an email from Hillary Clinton regarding the Benghazi Massacre to make the content of their emails public.

IRAN: WHY IS IT?

Why is it that Iran does not hesitate to call Obama out for being the liar that he is, but we won't? 

Thursday, April 09, 2015

WHO'S ON FIRST?

You would think this was all an Abbott and Costello routine, wouldn't you?  

Obama says he has a "deal" with Iran, Iran says their "deal" is different.  We're fighting against Iran in Yemen, but we're on Iran's side in Iraq and against Iran in Syria.  Kerry says the "deal" with Iran won't allow them to get nukes; Obama says it will.  Iran says we agreed to lift sanctions as soon as the "deal" is consummated, Obama says sanctions will be lifted gradually.  

So, who's on first?  Who do we blame when this whole shootin' match goes down in flames?  Why won't someone please pass the gray poop on?

WASHINGTON STATE DISPLAYS CHINESE FLAG

What else would you expect from the state of Washington?

In “honor” of his meeting with China Ambassador Cui Tiankai, Washington Governor Jay Inslee has posted the Chinese flag between the American flag and the state flag at the capitol building in Olympia.  

Hat Tip State Rep. Elizabeth Scott, because on Saturday, a small group of people arrived at the capitol in the morning and removed the Communist flag.  They were assisted by an officer from the Washington State Police.  
 
Maybe Inslee is planning to run for president.

CITY TO KIDS: TEAR DOWN YOUR PLAYHOUSE

The family and children of Jeremy Trentelman used a bunch of cardboard boxes to build a "castle"in their front yard in Ogden, Utah.  The family has reportedly received a letter from City Code Enforcement officials stating that the castle is violating city code, which prohibits people from putting junk in their yards.  Trentelman has 15 days to take the castle down, or faces a $125 penalty.   

Trentelman later told KUTV, “They can also file criminal charges against us and levy the fines as a lien against the house. So they're not playing.”  

Trentelman said had he not received the demand to dismantle the fort, he would have taken it down in a few days anyway. But after getting the warning from Ogden, he says he will keep Casa Castle up until just before the penalty.  “It was a great project for all of us to build, and now it’s just (fun) watching them play in it, and watching their imagination run wild is just fantastic.” 

And when juvenile delinquency goes up in Ogden over such unadulterated bull, the City of Ogden will be wondering who to blame.  I'll bet they don't spend a dime on playgrounds and they get together every Sunday like the good Mormons they claim to be.

THE REAL UNEMPLOYMENT FIGURE

The Bureau of Labor Statistics is reporting that only 62.7% of America's labor force is working.  That translates to 37.3% of the labor force is NOT working. 

That's a far cry from the reported 5.5% unemployment rate. 

So, who's fibbing?  Is it the Bureau of Labor Statistics or the Obama Administration?

JUST ANOTHER MARINE IN CAPITIVITY

Remember Sgt. Tahmooressi, the Marine who was holed up in a Mexican jail for months?  Now we have a Marine veteran, Amir Hekmati, who has been holed up in the worst possible prison in Iran for three years accused of spying.  Entertainer Montel Williams spearheaded a movement to get Tahmooressi released and he's working on the Hekmati case, but no one in the media is talking about it.  

There we've been, sitting that the negotiating table and working on Iran's nuclear ambitions... a perfect opportunity for bringing the matter out in the open... and it's like the White House proclamation over Bergdahl that we don't leave our military behind was never mentioned. 

Of course, now that we have a "deal," and now that the whole country has made it plain as English that we don't want any more terrorists being released from Gitmo as a trade, I guess Hekmati is going to have  to suffer the consequences... alone, like that imprisoned doctor in Pakistan who told us where Bin Laden was hiding.

JUSTICE DEPARTMENT STANDARD TEST FOR PROSECUTION

The D.O.J. has ruled there is no justifiable reason to prosecute Lois Lerner for using her cushy job at the I.R.S. to persecute Tea Party and other conservative organizations.  This sets the stage for the D.O.J. to avoid prosecution of Hillary Clinton.  

After all, if your emails are "gone," whether or not you had anything to do with the "disappearance," then you're not to blame. 

Congress, claiming that Lerner had waived her 5th Amendment Rights by making a statement to Congress, has insisted that Lerner be held in Contempt of Congress for refusing to testify after the statement was made.  That's called "prosecutorial disgression." 

So, keep this tactic in mind; when you get pulled over for speeding, lose your emails and the judge will let you off the hook.
