I LOVE THIS ONE!!!

Let me get this straight......we passed a health care plan written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that hasn't read it but exempts themselves from it, to be signed by a president that also is exempt from it and hasn't read it and who smokes, with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes, all to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and financed by a country that's broke. What the hell could possibly go wrong?

WE THE PEOPLE

2009, What A Year!

2009, What A Year!
Let's Recap "2009".........what a year!

1. The American people inaugurate a half-Arab, half-baked president with a total of 142 days experience as a US Senator from the most politically corrupt state (and city) in America whose governors have regularly been ousted from office. The President's first official act is to order the close of Gitmo and make sure terrorists civil rights are not violated. (An honest mistake?)

2. The U.S. Congress rushed to confirm Obama's buddy Eric Holder as Attorney General, whose law firm we later find out represents seventeen Gitmo Terrorists. (Another honest mistake?)

3. The CIA Boss appointee, Leon Panetta, had absolutely no experience, has a daughter Linda, we find out, who is a true radical anti-American activist and a supporter of all the Anti-American regimes in the western hemisphere.
(There were socioeconomic factors involved!)

4. We got the second most corrupt American woman (Pelosi is #1) as Secretary of State; bought and paid for. (But who's counting??)

5. We got a Tax Cheat for Treasury Secretary who did not properly file his own taxes for 12 years. (He misspoke!)

6. A Commerce Secretary nominee who withdrew due to corruption charges. (Another honest mistake???)

7. A Tax cheat nominee for Chief Performance Officer who withdrew under charges. (Hmmm... another screw-up?)

8. A Labor Secretary nominee who withdrew under charges of unethical conduct. (Ok, maybe this person was just plain stupid.)

9. A Secretary HHS nominee (Daschle) who withdrew under charges of cheating on his taxes. (I'm running out of excuses for these idiots!!)

10. Multiple appointments of former lobbyists after an absolute campaign statement that no lobbyists would be appointed. (I am getting a headache!) All this occurred just during the first three weeks. . .
but who's counting?

America is being run by the modern-day Three Stooges- Barry, Nancy and Harry- and they are still trying to define stimulus...
"it's spending!!!"

The congress passes the $800,000,000,000 (that's $800 billion) pork-loaded spending bill where the government gives you a smidgen of your tax dollars back ($13 per week), making you feel so good about yourself [stimulated], that you want to run out to Wal-Mart and buy a new Chinese-made HDTV and go home and watch Telemundo!

Here's the good news though - Obama took Air Force One to Denver to sign the stimulus package, wasting 10,000 gallons of fuel and enough money...

Enough for 24 JOBS FOR ONE YEAR.

Don't you just love hypocrites?

Obama went to the International Olympic Committee to lobby them to choose Chicago for a host city. He failed.

Obama went to Copenhagen to lecture them on global warming. He failed.

Obama went to new Jersey to promote the Democratic candidate for Governor. He failed.

Obama went to Virginia to promote the Democratic candidate for Governor. He failed.

Obama went to Massachusetts to promote the Democratic candidate for Senator. He failed
.
Obama apologized to the world for all the wrongs America has supposedly committed.

Obama has bowed-down to kiss the feet of leaders of third world countries who hate us.

Speaking of praying, Obama has now been president for a full year and yet he & wife (first lady) Michelle,the Christian family they claim to be, have not attended church since the inauguration, until just lately.

Obama is the 1st president in history who did not attend any Christmas religious observance.

He must miss Reverend Wright!

Obama nationalized (Socialized) the mortgage companies, the banks and the auto industry! But claims he's not a Socialist.

He was the first president to miss the Army & Navy Football game.

Should I mention the number of self proclaimed Socialist Czars and union thugs appointed to positions of responsibility?

I'm sure this has nothing to do with payoffs.

And finally, he is the 1st president to remain on vacation after a terrorist attack.

AMERICA DESERVES BETTER!

In these times, I'll keep my God, my freedom, my guns, and my money. Anyone that supports this fool and his insanity can keep "THE CHANGE".

Jim Condit and WagTheDog, Bites the Dust

Comment by Darla, ADMIN / National Director Resistnet.com

"Based on some troubling information that has come to light on Jim Condit and the wagthedog organization we are no longer associated with them. Thanks"

Tony's Take > >

A quick Google search of Jim Condit and the people he associates with will tell you why groups like The Patriotic Resistance, The National Precinct Alliance, Freedom Force, I-caucus and the Tea Party Express, have been forced to take similar action.

The many good Tea Party groups and their members are all given a bad name by people like Condit and those that associate with and defend him. They give the Obama Socialists all the ammo they need to attack the entire Tea Party movement as extremist right wing nuts.

When you sleep with dogs, don't act all shocked and surprised when you wake up with fleas.

The same thing applies to groups and people like:
Tea Party Nation
Judson Philips
Tea Party Patriots
Network America
National Precinct Activist
Tea Party Party of Nevada

This isn't just Tony's list. This is the list agreed upon by almost every major patriot group in the country now. None of us will have anything to do with these groups.

More is really less? Don't be fooled

Rhetoric versus reality

On education spending, they’re telling you more is less.

So, will public education be devastated with merely $200 million more this biennium?

Patrick R. Gibbons

Tuesday, March 2, 2010

Before the special session even began, Nevadans were swamped with doomsday warnings about "devastating cuts" to education. The rhetoric, however, never squared with reality.

When asked, the Legislative Counsel Bureau acknowledged that the operating budget lawmakers had approved for school districts' 2009-11 biennium was actually 4.9 percent larger than that for the previous biennium. And Budget Director Andrew Clinger told lawmakers that the governor's proposed reductions to education would amount to just 2.4 percent of K-12 spending — meaning that K-12 education could well end up actually spending more this biennium than the last!

Senate Majority Leader Steven Horsford didn't like hearing that from Clinger, and went so far as to suggest the budget director, in order to skew public opinion, was playing fast and loose with the numbers.

The reality, however, is that for decades, in the mad race for ever-higher taxes, it is taxpayers who've been subjected to fiercely partisan manipulations of the data. Regularly, the education establishment pretends, for example, that the state General Fund is the only source of revenue. But the General Fund is only one part of the moneys going into K-12 education.

Yes, as Senator Horsford protested, some of the moneys include federal funds mandated to specific programs, like the Free and Reduced Lunch Program. But these programs were sold to the public as ways to improve student learning — full tummies equal full minds, they told us. Is there any doubt that legislators and educators would scream bloody murder if the federal government reduced these funds? You can't divorce entire segments of the budget, such as federal funds, whenever it suits your political purpose.

If lawmakers were to be candid with the public, they'd put the situation in proper perspective, acknowledging all the revenue sources going into the operating budgets.

Federal revenues, for instance, make up about 7 percent of the budget in Clark County and about 8 percent in the Washoe County School District. It is also true that the portion of local school revenues not subsidized by the state could fall further. But these revenues, about 28 percent of all K-12 revenues, would have to fall more than 10 percent below the levels projected in 2009 for K-12 education money to fall below that of the 2007-09 biennium.

In the end, the debate between Governor Gibbons and legislators came down to whether education should grow 2.1 percent or 2.8 percent, instead of 4.9 percent. As it developed, the legislature's "cut" to K-12 spending gave it roughly $200 million more this biennium than the last.

Maybe — during the middle of the greatest recession Nevada's seen in 70 years — we shouldn't have increased funding. Maybe the more intelligent move would have been instituting reforms to use existing funds better.

So will public education be devastated with merely $200 million more this biennium?

If so, it says volumes about the competence of Nevada's education leaders.
