$40 a Week Isn't the Issue

The Congressional Republicans handed President Barack Hussein Obama a crucial victory in "fighting" for the middle class by agreeing to continue the payroll tax cut so the average American can have an additional $40 a week in their paycheck. 

Really???  Congressional Republicans caved on principals to give the average American $40 more per week?

Think about this REAL hard - was does $40 buy the average American? 

You can't fill your gas tank with $40.

You can't feed a family of four for a week with $40.

You surely couldn't send your son or daughter (illegal or legal) to community college for $40 a week.

You can't buy a new home, a new car, a new business, and new anything for $40 a week.  So what were Republicans fighting for?

They were fighting to not be cornered by a brilliant campaigner in Mr. Obama. 

DID CONGRESSIONAL REPUBLICANS MISS THE POINT HERE?

Shouldn't they have been fighting for $400 a week, or more?  It's doable if they had the fortitude to do what they said they were going to do when they ran for office - shrink the size of government.

The statistics in this argument were twisted by the Obama Press Corps and supported by Republicans.  $40 for the AVERAGE American is $40 for who?  It's not ALL Americans.  It's for a class of people that we have been repeatedly told is shrinking, the Middle Class.  And it's shrinking because of the greed of the 1% we're told.  I agree.

The 1% in my world is that millionaire elected and appointed "public" officials in Washington DC, who by the way, were not wealthy BEFORE getting into politics(?).

What you should be upset about and willing to fight against is that the arrogant bastards that think throwing you and me a crumb of $40 per week (which is most likely closer to $5 per week) will continue to kill us, financially until we want to become Government dependants like their constituents.

The Obama Press Corps has force fed the Congressional Republicans the virtue of letting the little people have some of their money back.

Now is the time to act on this issue because it will be up for debate in two months.  Don't allow Washington tell us how much money we can be "allowed" to have back temporarily. 

Semper Fi!

Circular Firing Squad

The Iowa caucuses are less than a month away and Republicans are doing their best to play into the Liberal Media's hands by attacking each other.  While Iowa may be the beginning, it certainly is not the end of the Republican Primary process.  Neither is New Hampshire or South Carolina.  But all I read about is if Mitt doesn't win New Hampshire it's 2008 all over again.  If Newt doesn't win South Carolina he can't carry the South in a general election, etc, etc, etc.

The issue, is NOT the differences between the Republican candidates rather, the fact that they have played by the rules of the Liberal media in criticizing their rivals.  Let's look at the election this way:

If you could only vote for the following people in the general election, who would you vote for?  Put a check mark next to whoever you would vote for come November:

Ron Paul  ______    vs   Barack Hussein Obama  ______

Michell Bachman  _______  vs   Barack Hussein Obama  ______

Jon Huntsman    _______  vs   Barack Hussein Obama   ______

Rick Perry  ______  vs  Barack Hussein Obama  ______

Mitt Romney ______  vs  Barack Hussein Obama  ______

Newt Gingrich  ______  vs  Barack Hussein Obama  ______

Herman Cain  ______  vs  Barack Hussein Obama  ______

If you did not place a check mark in any of the races for the Socialist on the right side of the ballot, then you understand what is important in this election.  Any one of the Republican candidates is a far better choice than what we have in the office of the President today.

So, rather than kill individual candidates because of ones policy decisions, marriage issues, foreign policy stance, or whatever, keep the focus on the failed policies of the Obama administration and the road of destruction that the Liberal Democrat party has driven our country down, and why a Republican President will save this country from an impending disaster.

Instead of letting the Liberal media tell us which of our candidates is not electable and why, why don't we tell the country why any one of them is the correct choice come November?  The diversity amongst our candidates should be celebrated, not condemned.

Don't let the Liberal media choose  the Republican nominee for President, that's OUR privilege!

Tax Payers Pay!!!

Tax payer money put to good use.  Be warned  PG13!

http://news.heartland.org/newspaper-article/2011/12/06/quarter-billion-taxpayer-dollars-spent-penis-pumps

How come this makes me think about Congress!

Missing the Target

Who said this?

“We’ve had implosions on Wall Street,” he said, in an interview with Bloomberg News yesterday. “We had bad behavior on Wall Street. We had lack of transparency on Wall Street. I believe they are, in some measure, responsible for a diminishment in trust.”  

Barack Hussein Obama?  Nope.

Hillary Clinton?  Nope

Elizabeth Warren?  Nope

Republican Presidential candidate Jon Hunstman?  Yep!

I understand the simplicity in attacking Wall Street during a tough economic time but don't agree with it.  Mr. Huntsman is shooting at a target, unfortunately it's the wrong target.

The target is CONGRESS!  Period! 

Congress, NOT Wall Street created the Community Reinvestment Law forcing banks to make bad loans.  Congress, NOT Wall Street created Fannie and Freddie to bundled BILLIONS of dollars of bad loans to sell to Wall Street who sold them to us.

Congress, NOT Wall Street has spent TRILLIONS of DOLLARS it does not have!  Congress, NOT Wall Street continues to demonize hard working Americans and place targets on their backs utilizing class warfare.

Just like Elmer Fudd, Jon Huntsman needs to get an aim on the right target before he starts shooting.  Congress is the target Mr. Hunstman, not Wall Street or the American worker.

Republicans need to talk about the facts and stop demagogging like Democrats.
