iowahawk: Virgin-Americans Vow Fight Against Cap-and-Trade's Blood Sacrifice Amendment

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) defended the bill, saying that "it is critical that we do something immediately to show we are serious about solving this climate crisis. Without burnt offerings of taxes and virgins, Gaia will smite us all in her angry burning wrath. So let me just say to the corporate and virgin special interest groups -- don't come crying to us in 400 years, when our temperatures are up almost 1 degree celsius."

What is really funny about the above quote is that the-guy-at-work-who-shall-remain-nameless just asked me if it was a real Pelosi quote.  That right there tells you a lot about how this government is perceived:  You have to think for a moment...is it real or is it satire?

Quote of the Day...

The Nuance is giving me a Headache...

Yesterday on Brett Baier's show, Mara Liason played Obama-apologist by claiming that Obama didn't really want Chavez crony Zelaya returned to power; he really wanted him deposed, and was happy with the outcome. However, she contended, he was displeased by the way it was accomplished, and furthermore, needed to say he supported the re-installation of Zelaya. Even though he didn't.

I thought words mattered?

Cap and Trade...

Glenn Beck said yesterday there were provisions in the bill that established national building codes based on CA "green codes" that all new houses would have to meet. Also, any old house sold would also have to be inspected by the federal code man and be updated to meet the new codes before it could be sold.

Fuck me!  My house is 99 years old.  The wall studs are cedar with bark on two sides in the oldest part of the house.  Insulation is only in the areas I have renovated.  I've got three visible roof structures up in the attic.   Much of the electric wiring is the old style cloth covering. It would be cheaper for me to burn it to the ground and build again.

Obama: A Profile in Cowardice

An Interesting Blueprint...

I'm finding this Honduras situation interesting.

Mr. Zelaya, an ally of Venezuela's populist President Hugo Chavez, has been locked in an increasingly bitter battle with the rest of Honduras's political establishment, including members of his own party, over the president's plans to hold a referendum to scrap the constitution and potentially allow re-election, something currently barred under Honduran law.

Honduran SC and Honduras Congress tell the president something he is doing is illegal and unconstitutional.
Honduran president continues along anyway.
Honduran SC orders the military to throw him out of the country
Honduran Congress appoints a temp president until elections in November.
Obama joins Chavez and all the other leftists in support of ousted Honduran president.

That's a nice blueprint.  Does our military have one way flights to Venezuela?

the Honduran Constitution:

    Title VII, with two chapters, outlines the process of amending the constitution and sets forth the principle of constitutional inviolability. The constitution may be amended by the National Congress after a two-thirds vote of all its members in two consecutive regular annual sessions.

That is what Zelaya tried to bypass.

From Donald Sensing...

What people here don't understand is that the Honduran constitution specifies clear roles for the military in maintaining constitutional order and rule of law, including the administration of national balloting and enforcement of the strict provision of a single term for the president.

Constitutionally, the military had no choice but to refuse to administer the illegal referendum. Zelaya ordered the chief of the general staff to hold the referendum. He refused. Zelaya fired him, which was immediately ruled illegal by the supreme court. Zelaya refused to reinstate the general. Then the heads of the services promptly resigned in protest.

Last Thursday, Zelaya personally led a mob to the warehouse where the Venezuelan-supplied ballots were stored by the army. Taking them by force, Zelaya had his minions distribute them to polling places - also unconstitutional since only the military can administer polling.

Realizing a clear crisis was upon them, the court nullified Zelaya's office, as authorized by the constitution, and with the support of the entire government directed the army to remove Zelaya from office.

It has been entirely overlooked that the constitution requires the military to enforce the single-term law of the presidency.

The Honduran military has since the 1840s (just after the country's independence from Spain) been charged with enforcing civil law and order. In this sense the military forms the equivalent of the US Marshall Service and Honduran battalion commanders serve not only as strictly military commanders but as sheriffs of their districts.

This administration is a dangerous embarrassment.

50 Million without Health Insurance...

Harsanyi: How to lie with statistics

45 percent of the uninsured are uninsured for four months or less.

Another portion of uninsured Americans already qualify for an existing government health insurance program — and government already controls 46 percent of spending on health care - for which they have not signed up.

The Urban Institute (hardly advocates of free-market fundamentalism) found that 25 percent of the uninsured qualify for some program.

Turns out that 8.4 million uninsured Americans are making $50,000 to $74,999 and 9.1 million more are making more than $75,000. Health insurance is just incompatible with their lifestyles.

27 percent of all adults in their 20s (many, I presume, without offspring) choose not to have health insurance.

...and this does not even note that 20 Million are illegal aliens

Quote of the Day...

So we start this all over again and 'round and round' we go.

All of which in my equation all but guarantees we are not on the verge of any meaningful recovery. Quite the opposite perhaps. The downward swirl of liberal policies continues to build on itself.

It is beyond debate that liberal policies have led to most of these dominoes that are now toppled. Liberalism in power has prevented this country from using much of our own energy. It has prevented the building of any refineries since before the days of Microsoft. It has prevented us from building nuclear power plants. It has dominated most production and labor policy for the Big Three automakers. It dictated that people who could not qualify for home mortgages should have access to them anyway.

Liberal cronies were in charge of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which were liberal enterprises to begin with. Liberal government has run Michigan for decades.

In fact, liberals have been PROUD of all of these beliefs as they have fought these battles one by one. In the childlike mind of a liberal utopian, the dots just never connect. In reality, those dots always connect - and they connect long before most people can visualize the lines. Thus an economic meltdown that hit us with breathtaking speed.

And the Obama cure? More of the same. More quashing of America's energy complex. More government interference into labor. More government interference into lending. More government interference into healthcare. More changing of contract law. More taxes on business. More incentives not to work or pay your mortgage or invest. More and more and more government - all because we need to solve things that government screwed up to begin with.

Recovery? Maybe. Maybe not. But no time soon.

Comment of the Day...

Our kids took me out for ice cream after a rainy Father's Day cookout. In honor of the 44th President of the United States, Baskin-Robbins Ice Cream had a new flavor: "Barocky Road." Barocky Road is a blend of half vanilla, half chocolate, and surrounded by nuts and flakes. The vanilla portion of the mix is not openly advertised and was denied as an ingredient when I asked. The nuts and flakes are all very bitter and hard to swallow. The cost is $100.00 per scoop. When we purchased it was presented in a large beautiful waffle cone, but then the ice cream was taken away and given to the person in line behind me. I was left with an empty wallet and no change, holding an empty cone with no hope of getting any ice cream. Was I stimulated? - sickinmass

Our Media has really hit rock bottom when I have to watch the BBC to get accurate stories about IRAN, rather than the sticky gushing of our Crap Media on m'Bongas trip to the ice-cream store with the kids to pick up doggie pops for Bo.

Which also brings this to mind:

I hope the pResident got a sprinkle of nuts on his ice cream - he needs them.

Quote of the Day...

Why worry about an EMP attack?
"So it wipes out your bank accounts.
What's in there? I mean, really. The average American household is
carrying $121,953 in personal debt. What would be so bad if something
goofy happened and all the meters got reset to zero? And Joe Schmoe's
credit card debt is as nothing compared to what the government's signed
him up for. . . . When I first heard about EMP a few years back, the
big worry was that in a split-second it would vaporize trillions of
dollars of wealth. From the perspective of 2009, vaporizing trillions
of dollars of debt has something to commend it." - Mark Styne

Obama to fire inspector general of AmeriCorps (m'Bonga's Brownshirts)

An inspector who is supposed to investigate scandals is being fired because he insists on investigating scandals!

The White House is going ahead with firing Walpin. The firing
apparently stems from Walpin's investigation of a non-profit group, St.
HOPE Academy, run by Kevin Johnson, the former NBA star who is now
mayor of Sacramento, California (and a big Obama supporter).

 "[Walpin] found that Johnson, a former all-star point guard for the Phoenix Suns,
had used AmeriCorps grants to pay volunteers to engage in school-board
political activities, run personal errands for Johnson and even wash
his car," the AP reports. In April, the U.S. attorney declined to file
any criminal charges in the matter and criticized Walpin's
investigation. But at the same time Johnson and St. HOPE agreed to
repay about half of the $850,000 it had received from AmeriCorps.

Bottom line: The AmeriCorps IG accuses prominent Obama supporter of
misusing AmeriCorps grant money. Prominent Obama supporter has to pay
back more than $400,000 of that grant money. Obama fires AmeriCorps IG.

And...

...Funding for the largest AmeriCorps program - the Teaching Fellows Program, run by the Research Foundation of the City University of New York - is in abeyance pending resolution of widespread problems identified in a recent audit. Although Walpin recommended that funding be curtailed and that previous funds (perhaps as much as $75 million) be repaid to the corporation, the corporation has said it will take no action on that matter.

Walpin concluded that nothing was being gained by the grants to CUNY and that the money was simply being used to subsidize an existing and funded program.

What we have here is a worthless fiasco of a pork-filled program that m'Bonga wants to expand.  He can't afford to have someone competent investigating it, can we.  Especially since ACORN is tied hand and glove with this thing.  Note that these IG positions are congressional...the pResident Kenyan is supposed to apply to Congress if he wants an IG removed for cause...not call him up and tell him to resign within 24 hours.

Update:  Two More Fired and one on the edge...

He was appointed with fanfare as the public watchdog over the government's multi-billion dollar bailout of the nation's financial system. But now Neil Barofsky is embroiled in a dispute with the Obama administration that delayed one recent inquiry and sparked questions about his ability to freely investigate.

The disagreement stems from a claim by the Treasury Department that Barofsky is not entirely independent of the agency he is assigned to examine - a claim that has prompted a stern letter from a Republican senator warning that agency officials are encroaching on the integrity of an office created to protect taxpayers.

The dispute comes as Grassley, ranking Republican on the Senate Finance Committee, is looking into the abrupt firings within the last week of two other inspectors general - one of whom was fired by the White House and the other by the chair of the International Trade Commission.

Both inspectors general had investigated sensitive subjects at the time of their firings.

Grassley is now concerned about whether a pattern is emerging in which the independence of the government's top watchdogs - whose jobs were authorized by Congress to look out for waste, fraud and abuse - is being put at risk.

Comment of the Day...

So I SEE, suddenly it is no longer patriotic to dissent? Yep that's only when a republican is in office.
I'm amazed that the saner leftists are not concerned with how fast and how little debate there is on these trillion dollar bills. Anyone remember the 14 month RUSH TO WAR?
What about the HOWLING over a 400 billion dollar deficit? Suddenly a 2000 billion dollar deficit is okey dokey?
Oh wait...remember when unemployment was at 4.5% but there were grave worries for the next four years? Now unemployment DOUBLE at 9.5% this is encouraging for the economy?
To be liberal is to be either a hypocrite or mentally ill.

Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen of the Allied Expeditionary Force!
You are about to embark upon the Great Crusade, toward which we have striven these many months. The eyes of the world are upon you. The hopes and prayers of liberty-loving people everywhere march with you. In company with our brave Allies and brothers-in-arms on other Fronts, you will bring about the destruction of the German war machine, the elimination of Nazi tyranny over the oppressed peoples of Europe, and security for ourselves in a free world.
Your task will not be an easy one. Your enemy is well trained, well equipped and battle-hardened. He will fight savagely.
But this is the year 1944! Much has happened since the Nazi triumphs of 1940-41. The United Nations have inflicted upon the Germans great defeats, in open battle, man-to-man. Our air offensive has seriously reduced their strength in the air and their capacity to wage war on the ground. Our Home Fronts have given us an overwhelming superiority in weapons and munitions of war, and placed at our disposal great reserves of trained fighting men. The tide has turned! The free men of the world are marching together to Victory!
I have full confidence in your courage, devotion to duty and skill in battle. We will accept nothing less than full Victory!
Good Luck! And let us all beseech the blessing of Almighty God upon this great and noble undertaking.
