How about a 3% tax on your monthly cell phone bill to save delightfully subjective dying newspapers like the NY Times? You don't mind, do you? That's what the FTC recommends in their new "Project" entitled "Reinventing Journalism". No kidding. You can't make this shit up. That's exactly what this this POS PRAVDA-inspired document is called. .....And how about tossing in a nice 5% tax on purchases of all computers, ipads, and Kindles for the ba … Read More

Barry Hussein And Kevin Johnson: Two Peas In A Pod
Something tells me Barry partakes in the same sorted behavior as KJ!
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2010/jun/9/obama-team-honors-walpin-gate-transgressor/
Still, the public should consider it a brazen affront for this administration to feature Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson as a key speaker at a major conference sponsored later this month by the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS). Common decency should disallow such a scandal.
On the grounds of image alone, Mr. Johnson sends the wrong message, considering that four different young women or teenage girls have accused Mr. Johnson of inappropriate sexual conduct. Three of the four were actually affiliated with the very institution, the St. Hope Academy, that was sponsored through CNCS grants. (CNCS is the parent body for the AmeriCorps national "volunteering" program.) In none of the cases were charges ever pressed, but one of the students said she was offered $1,000 per month in exchange for her silence, and two staff members resigned from St. Hope to protest how the academy tried (in the words of one of them) to "intimidate the student*." And in the first instance, in the summer of 1995, Mr. Johnson at one point agreed to pay the girl $230,000, according to the Sacramento Bee, after protesting that he "didn't recall us being a hundred percent naked" during the incident.

Who Did What To You?
Thanks to ML for this.
An old Social Security card with the "NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION" message.
Just in case some of you didn't know this, it's easy to check out if you don't believe it. Be sure and show it to your kids. They need a little history lesson on what's what and it doesn't matter whether you are Democrat or Republican. Facts are Facts!!!
Social Security Cards up until the 1980s expressly stated the number and card were not to be used for identification purposes. Since nearly everyone in the United States now has a number, it became convenient to use it anyway and the message was removed. [9]
Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social
Security (FICA) Program. He promised:
No longer Voluntary
2.) That the participants would only have to pay
1% of the first $1,400 of their annual
Incomes into the Program,
Now 7.65%
on the first $90,000
3.) That the money the participants elected to put
into the Program would be deductible from
their income for tax purposes each year,
No longer tax deductible
4.) That the money the participants put into the
independent 'Trust Fund' rather than into the
general operating fund, and therefore, would
only be used to fund the Social Security
Retirement Program, and no other
Government program, and,
Under Johnson (Democrat) the money was moved to
The General Fund and Spent
5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income.
Under Clinton & Gore (both Democrats)
Up to 85% of your Social Security can be Taxed
Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are
now receiving a Social Security check every month --
and then finding that we are getting taxed on 85% of
the money we paid to the Federal government to 'put
away' -- you may be interested in the following:Q: Which Political Party took Social Security from the
independent 'Trust Fund' and put it into the
general fund so that Congress could spend it?Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax
deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding?Q: Which Political Party started taxing Social
Security annuities?Q: Which Political Party decided to start
giving annuity payments to immigrants?
Jimmy Carter and the Democratic Party.
Immigrants moved into this country, and at age 65,
began to receive Social Security payments! The
Democratic Party gave these payments to them,
even though they never paid a dime into it! ------------ -- ------------ --------- ----- ------------ --------- --------- Then, after violating the original contract (FICA),
the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take your Social Security away! The worst part about it is uninformed citizens believe it and believe that the Democrats are "for the people."
If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of
awareness will be planted and maybe changes will
evolve. Maybe not, some Democrats are awfully
sure of what isn't so.
AND CONGRESS GIVES THEMSELVES 100% RETIREMENT (Congressional retirement system, not Social Security) FOR ONLY SERVING ONE TERM
1.) That participation in the Program would be
Completely voluntary,
------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ----
A: It was Lyndon Johnson (Democrat) and the democratically
controlled House and Senate.
------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --
A: The Democratic Party.
------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- -----
A: The Democratic Party, with Al Gore casting the
'tie-breaking' deciding vote as President of the
Senate, while he was Vice President of the US
------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- -
AND MY FAVORITE:
A: That's right!
But it's worth a try. How many people can YOU send this to?
Actions speak louder than bumper stickers.

Out With The Law Breakers, In With The Good Folks
Looks like illegal aliens in Arizona are leaving the state, because they know they are law breakers. It won't be long until law-abiding citizens relocate to Arizona along with businesses. Arizona is a prime example of what can be done when good people take control of their government!
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/06/11/discontent-arizona-immigration-law-driving-hispanics-state/
If one Phoenix school district is any gauge, Hispanics in Arizona appear to be leaving the state in anticipation of the tough-on-illegal-immigration law that goes into effect at the end of July.
It's not clear how many of them are illegal immigrants, but the exodus could be evidence that the law is achieving its goal of driving out illegals even before it takes effect next month.
