32 Years Later . . . . .

 

Does anybody out there have any memory Of the reason given for the establishment Of the DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY During the Carter Administration?

We've spent several hundred billion dollars In support of an agency the reason for which not one person who reads This can remember.  Ready?
It was very simple at the time everybody thought it very appropriate... The 'Department of Energy' Was instituted on 8-04-1977

TO LESSEN OUR DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN OIL.

Hey, pretty efficient, huh?

AND NOW IT'S 2009, 32 YEARS LATER ...

AND THE BUDGET FOR THIS NECESSARY DEPARTMENT IS AT $24.2 BILLION A YEAR

IT HAS 16,000 FEDERAL EMPLOYEES AND APPROXIMATELY 100,000 CONTRACT EMPLOYEES

AND LOOK AT THE JOB IT HAS DONE!

Ah, yes, good old bureaucracy and NOW we are going to turn The Banking System, Health Care & The Auto Industry over to government ALL IN THE NAME OF CHANGE?

Sunday Thoughts

For some reason the words to the hymn, "Faith of Our Fathers" aka "The Recessional" by Kipling, have always generated a combination of melancholy, joy and hope; what Neil Maxwell would call, "Sweet Sorrow". I first came aware of this poem when reading, "Beware of Pride" by President Ezra Taft Benson.

To many, this poem seemed to foretell the fate of Brittan as less and less people seem to remember their God. Of course, this same warning was repeated throughout the Book of Mormon so explicitly that it can be considered a major underlying theme.

Regardless of where you kneel on whatever day you choose, the important thing is that the moral conduct generated by a loving God be placed firmly in your heart.

Recessional
June 22, 1897
Rudyard Kipling. b. 1865

GOD of our fathers, known of old—
Lord of our far-flung battle-line—
Beneath whose awful Hand we hold
Dominion over palm and pine—
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget, lest we forget!

The tumult and the shouting dies—
The captains and the kings depart—
Still stands Thine ancient sacrifice,
An humble and a contrite heart.
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget, lest we forget!

Far-call'd our navies melt away—
On dune and headland sinks the fire—
Lo, all our pomp of yesterday
Is one with Nineveh and Tyre!
Judge of the Nations, spare us yet,
Lest we forget, lest we forget!

If, drunk with sight of power, we loose
Wild tongues that have not Thee in awe—
Such boasting as the Gentiles use
Or lesser breeds without the Law—
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget, lest we forget!

For heathen heart that puts her trust
In reeking tube and iron shard—
All valiant dust that builds on dust,
And guarding calls not Thee to guard—
For frantic boast and foolish word,
Thy Mercy on Thy People, Lord!

Caturday!

Okay, this is just plain sick.
We had a cat.
ONCE
It would eat the carpet strings that came from 'Stupid' clawing at it all day.
One day we saw 'Stupid' tearing through the house with a turd on a string chasing him.

With that in mind..

America’s New Year's Unemployment Hangover

America’s New Year's Unemployment Hangover
This chart says it all. Every episode of high unemployment was caused by big government. Since FDR tried to spend his way our of Hardings similar approach, we've lost jobs. Carter shows up as the worst in recent history only to be eclipsed by Obama in terms of depth and duration.

Let's not forget that places like California have extended unemployment and told people who have last their jobs to NOT LOOK for at least six months to a year.

What has effectively taken place is a massive understated number. Easily proven, at least one in three people who are unemployed are actually counted as being unemployed.

Most households are now relying on at least two incomes and sometimes three or four. Meanwhile our teenage population, most of whom were employed at jobs Mexicans are now doing illegally, are not working. Instead of seeing young people in their early 20's bagging your groceries or greeting you at the Cosco door, you now have old age people who should be enjoying a quiet retirement.

What the hell has happened?

Obama's Stash

Dear  Sirs:

    "During my last night's shift in the ER, I had the pleasure of evaluating a patient with an expensive shiny gold tooth,  multiple elaborate expensive tattoos, a very expensive brand  of tennis shoes and a new cellular telephone equipped  with her favorite R&B tune for a ringtone.. Glancing  over the chart, one could not help noticing her payer status: Medicaid.. She smokes more  than one costly pack of cigarettes every day  and, somehow, still has money to buy beer. 

    And  our Congress expects  me to pay for this woman's health  care? Our  nation's health  care crisis is  not a shortage of  quality hospitals, doctors or  nurses.  _It is a crisis of  culture_ ~ a culture in  which it is perfectly acceptable to spend money on  vices while refusing to take  care of one's self or, heaven forbid, purchase health insurance..  A culture that  thinks _"I can do whatever  I want to because someone else will always take care of  me"._  Life is really not that hard. Most of us reap  what we  sow.  Don't you agree? -- STARNER JONES,  MD, Jackson ,  MS  * *

Cheese Eating Surrender Monkey Lectures America

International politics: just when the limits of credulity are seemingly pushed beyond the rational, in steps Martin Jaques, a London frog, who has the temerity to lecture the US on "How to Bow".

Why America Must Learn to Bow

Not only is this piece completely detached from reality, it also hails B.O. as the one who possesses that "rare characteristic, humility". What person he must be referring to is a mystery since the current occupant of the White Hose is widely regarded as the most narcissistic president ever, even exceeding our buddy Bill.

This CESM continues to lecture us about the inevitability of Chinese domination and how we need to learn to get along. Along with what? Why should we, the most successful nation in the world, in history, which got there by bottom up governance (which if B.O. got his wish would end, but I digress), capitulate to a totalitarian top down dictatorship?

It makes no sense. Unless you were French, whose people have been playing with socialist governments ever since the revolution.

He praises China for knowing what it is doing and that the US does not. That is just insane. CESM is just repeating the talking points China releases from a top down command structure. Conform or die. Except that the Law of Unintended Consequences never allows for total control. The good guy gets a vote.

It's like watching the evil super villain explaining how, after dispatching the good guy, he will do A, B, and then C, with a malevolent full bellied laugh. We all know how it will end. Except for the bad guy. In the end totalitarian dictators never saw it coming. Just ask Cesar.

Problem is, you just can't control whole societies. But, some people will never give up trying. These are the people who genuinely think that they are smarter, more gifted, and darn it, people just like 'em. They convince large numbers of people to follow them into the void.

China once had a shot at being great. His name was Chang Kai Shek. Had another socialist, FDR, chosen to back him instead of the murdering Mao (is 40-50 million dead a qualifier for the greatest mass murderer in history?) we would have a democratic China.

Take one look at Taiwan, when Chang took his supporters and gave them governance. Can you imagine a China like Taiwan?

That is something that a CESM like Martin cannot even grasp.

We don't have to bow to anyone. America looks their fellows in the eye and those countries who are able to stand erect can do so. China is playing democracy, but control freaks creep in, kill a few thousand here or there and it's back to the status quo. Just ask the Christians.

Chinese Communists continue to oppress their people, they continue to murder, imprison and confiscate private labor. For a country that has four times the population and plenty of natural resources, you'd think that they could impress us with prosperity.

Instead, we have some little man banging a tin drum with nothing to show for it.

Pathetic

Fascist Unions are an Oxymoron

Fascism is a term used widely by the Liberals to denounce Capitalists (a Marxist term) when in fact both terms are misleading. The word Fascist comes from the Italian word, fascio, which has been cleansed of its original use: Unions.

Fascio (plural: fasci) is an Italian word literally meaning "fagot" (as in a bundle of sticks)^[1], and figuratively "league", and which was used in the late 19th century to refer to political groups of many different (and sometimes opposing) orientations. A number of nationalist fasci later evolved into the 20th century movement known as fascism.

The idea that Fascism was nationalistic is a bit misleading as well. A union, like Stalin's Soviet Union rely on "The Cult of Personality" to control people through rhetoric and manipulation; eventually resorting to brute force and genocide.

Like Mussolini, Stalin and Mao, Obama has become the state to many. Pharaoh was often referred to as Egypt. Hitler was Germany, Mussolini was Italy. When these countries finally fell, it was like a spell had been lifted, according to historical accounts. When I see celebrities and small school children worshiping Obama, I see a fascist.

Nationalism, therefore, cannot be Patriotism. It's like seeing a UAW bumper sticker next to an American flag. The two are mutually exclusive in this regard: The United States is all about FREEDOM, Unions are all about COERCION. While claiming collective bargaining against large corporations, the leadership actually uses the friction to create fear. Fear equals cash. Union members are known as the proletariat, when in the real world they've become the serfs.

Conservatives are patriots because they worship the true God of the land. Free principles like those contained in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Concepts discussed in The Federalist Papers. Ideas of freedom that have only come from Christianity. This is the real battle. A free society must be a moral one.

For example, the secret ballot. A small bit of freedom used within unions to promote the expression of ideas that may be unpopular. Why are unions so against the secret ballot? Because without the secret ballot a union can express unilateral control. If you don't like a union, or what it is doing, and vote against; with a non-secret ballot, you will be revealed. As anyone knows who has openly opposed a union there are consequences. Threats, destruction of property or beatings and sometimes death occur. Is that moral? How does that make a union for the little guy?

Unions, like Fascism, are both ultra left. Big government, total control over business, production; what people say, speak, and think (hate crimes, political correctness, msm bias).

Wilson's Blue Eagle program, Hoover's square deal, FDR's New Deal, LBJ's Great Society. Obama's TARP, Stimulus, Health Care, and ACORN, are all part of the same plan to remove funds from the productive sector and pump it into fascist, non productive sectors; Keynesian style.

So, in giving unions greater control over America are we going to become more prosperous or less? The Union thugs will enjoy a moment of unearned prosperity at the expense of someone else, but that can't last. Unions are Fascist. Fascism is dependent on the Cult of Personality. When the false god of the land is eventually revealed, Mussolini, Hitler, Stalin, Obama, and all the others, the people turn on them and tear them to pieces. (Obama's poll numbers are the lowest of any first year president polled).

Is that what it will take to defeat the massive corruption going on in Washington today? A complete collapse of society as our Anointed One leads us into the Chicago, or Detroit, pit?

Our B+ President? Where A's are C's, maybe...

Obama gave himself a B+ the other day. Perhaps if you call an "A" 70%. Obama is a dismal failure and the public strongly disapproves of him for the most part. Now, you have to ask yourself how this narcissistic empty suit who has been propped up entirely by the fawning, horribly biased, mainstream media, one thing: "What would Obama's ratings be if he had been subjected to the MSM hammering Bush had?"

My answer: "His ratings would be lower than Nancy Pelosi's."

Obama has found himself lost in America and he has no place in it. We deserve better. Better media coverage. Better representation. Better opportunity for the vast majority of hard working, overtaxed, over regulated, people of America.

The America that Obama has never learned about.
Typical Americans who are honest, religious, and giving.
Americans that are roundly despised by the socialist elite for wearing work clothes rather than silk suits. For working with their hands and minds rather than stealing that increase through legislation and intimidation.

Liberal do nothings that are making one of the most alarming power-grabs in free America since FDR.

As Oberman calls conservatives a 'Mountebank', he really needs to look at his President. The grand master of fraud and deception. But, as any town becomes wise, eventually, to their resident Mountebank, so have we. Throw Obama out now.

"You, SIR, need to go. NOW"
And take that agriculture school sub graduate, basketball wanna-be, liberal sycophant, with you.
