Just in time for Christmas, Congress gave us another hot mess with a ridiculous two month payroll tax holiday as the national debt crossed the $15.1 trillion mark. They're headed home for the holidays---and Obama is headed to Hawaii---and not a moment too soon. Get out. And stop trying to "help" us.
Also in time for Christmas, Senator Tom Coburn (R-Okla) released his annual "Wastebook 2011." (See it here: http://www.coburn.senate.gov/public/6946d43b-bccf-4579-990e-15a763532b40.html ) If you're still wondering how we're careening toward $16 trillion in debt, check out these tasty spending items from this year:
A $113,000 federal grant for a "detailed conservation survey" of the video game collection for the History of Video Games in upstate New York.
$550,000 for a documentary on how rock music contributed to the fall of the Soviet Union.
$923,000 to build robots that look like dragons to help preschoolers learn language skills.
$198,000 to study whether Facebook, Twitter and MySpace make people happy.
$75,000 to promote awareness of Michigan's role in growing Christmas trees.
And $10 million to produce a version of "Sesame Street" for Pakistan.
I wish I could say that these items are a joke and that instead of Christmas, it's April Fool's. Sadly, these spending items are very real and totally ludicrous. Our government is out of control. Nearly $2.5 billion was added to our national debt EACH DAY because of crap like this and because no one has the cojones to deal with the biggest budget monsters: Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security.
Congress: Get out. Stop trying to "help" us. And we hope you get lumps of coal from Santa because that's what you're giving us every day. Very, very expensive lumps of coal.

what do you think the ratio is between who wants a job vs who wants a government handout for Christmas?

you see folks , the issue contained within the structure of the authors topic of the day , failed obama policy , more redistribution of our resources and wealth , class warfare and further division of our people's roots can be found in obamas own words " dreams from my father " in that obamas dreams as derived from that of Barack Hussien Obama Sr. 's , is very different from the one George Washington , Benjamin Franklin and Abraham Lincoln campaigned on and just as distant from the ideals of Frederick Douglas and Martin Luther King . In fact , to uncover the mystery behind young obamas dreams from his father we must first back track and leave the shores of america and join him on his life long undertaking of discovering his father and through that experience , himself

Out Comes Eric Holder’s Race Card
Nothing could be more predictable than that Eric Holder — whose worldview is explicitly based on racial grievance — would whip out his dog-eared race card once he had painted himself into a corner with lies.
The attorney general cited race in explaining why a “more extreme segment” of his critics were going after him. “This is a way to get at the president because of the way I can be identified with him, both due to the nature of our relationship and, you know, the fact that we’re both African-American,” Holder said in an interview with The New York Times.

it seems thus far UMM has that big sister complex thing , you know he grew up under the shadow of a bigger sister that used to pick on him in his youth with all of her friends , probably dressed him up like a girl i would have imagined and took a picture of it establishing duress of showing it to all his friends . It's painfully obvious as to some such demise in that unto this very hour that resentment and fear dictates his every thought , decision and has festered to the place now whereas it doesn't matter if in his closet with those ghost but here in public the bitterness of the past and the release of the pain from that past of a " Big Sister Complex " relinguishes him powerless even to be cognazant that grown adults are watching him in his dealings with this web site smearing of a woman

Victor Davis Hanson: Approach The Problem...
By Federale
But back away from the obvious conclusion. VDH has again exposed the radical left on immigration. Immigration is killing off California's Central Valley. Mexicans are literally stealing everything that is not nailed down, then even stealing that which is nailed down.
-----
National Review Online December 21, 2011 Victor Davis Hanson
A Vandalized Valley
"I am starting to feel as if I am living in a Vandal state, perhaps on the frontier near Carthage around a.d. 530, or in a beleaguered Rome in 455. Here are some updates from the rural area surrounding my farm, taken from about a 30-mile radius. In this take, I am not so much interested in chronicling the flotsam and jetsam as in fathoming whether there is some ideology that drives it.
Last week an ancestral rural school near the Kings River had its large bronze bell stolen. I think it dated from 1911. I have driven by it about 100 times in the 42 years since I got my first license. The bell had endured all those years. Where it is now I don’t know. Does someone just cut up a beautifully crafted bell in some chop yard in rural Fresno County, without a worry about who forged it or why — or why others for a century until now enjoyed its presence?
The city of Fresno is now under siege. Hundreds of street lights are out, their copper wire stripped away. In desperation, workers are now cementing the bases of all the poles — as if the original steel access doors were not necessary to service the wiring. How sad the synergy! Since darkness begets crime, the thieves achieve a twofer: The more copper they steal, the easier under cover of spreading night it is to steal more. Yet do thieves themselves at home with their wives and children not sometimes appreciate light in the darkness? Do they vandalize the street lights in front of their own homes?
In a small town two miles away, the thefts now sound like something out of Edward Gibbon’s bleaker chapters — or maybe George Miller’s Road Warrior, or the Hughes brothers’ more recent The Book of Eli. Hundreds of bronze commemorative plaques were ripped off my town’s public buildings (and with them all record of our ancestors’ public-spiritedness). I guess that is our version of Trotskyization."

Why should I loathe who I am?
Trying to put more into the equation that is deemed necessary?
What I do loathe are people who post something such as crimes by anyone.
And, their SOLE raeson is not to say the saddness of someone havind died. But, because they want to report that someone in a group commited the crime.
When they post the crime, because someone of color commited the crime. Then, they AND, THEY alone , made it a racist remark.
Otherwise, why not post crimes no matter who did it?
Posted by: Jay | December 23, 2011 at 07:01 PM
And, it could be a pesrson of color posting a crime by a white person. And, their SOLE reason is to point out the fact that a white person commited the crime.
