Open and Honest Government v. Total Recall

7:23 am PST
Senator Wyden's AND Senator Merkley's voice mail boxes are "full" and can take no more messages.  I wonder why?  Say, you don't suppose it's because thay're going to ram this Federal healthcare takeover/pork for Landrieu & friends bill through today at 7:30 Pacific time, do you?
Despite the glaring fact that NOT ONE of the Senators has fully read this 2,047-page encyclopedic treatise; Despite the fact that most American citizens realize that it is another "giant step for mankind" toward a Socialist state;
Despite the fact that most of the "negotiations" were cloakroom deals and implied payoffs ("bribes" is such an un-Senatorial term);
Despite the fact that Medicare and Medicaid, for which you and I have been paying since 1968 and will KEEP paying as long as we live, is being eviscerated in order to hide the true costs of this heinous plan which pushes the United States EVEN FURTHER into debt;
Despite the fact that only about 10-to12 PERCENT of Americans will actually benefit from this plan
YOUR ELECTED "REPRESENTATIVES" are going to vote to make this monstrosity the law of the land!!

I submit:
Dear Senators Merkley and Wyden;

Thank you again for your service to Oregon and to the United States.

Given the recent "debate" on federalizing all healthcare, I must state that it requires "cojones" the size of churchbells for ANY Senator to refer to the Karzai government in Afghanistan as being "corrupt."

*SIGH* If only there was a way to get their attention...

The 4 C's: Courage, Conviction, Commitment, and Character

Lt. Col. Alan West is running for Congress from Florida.  This is the one time I could support human cloning:  we could use a few hundred more like him in D.C.

And Chris Dudley, successful Lake Oswego businessman/philanthropist (oh, yeah, and former Trailblazer) , has announced that he is running for governor of Oregon as a Republican.  Hmm: "successful," "businessman," "governor."  Works for me.
Support him at:

Let's put "Sleepy Ted" (as Lars calls him) to bed, and put a true conservative in the Governor's Mansion while we still own one. 

Two Possible Futures

Contrary to the ploys of  Timothy "I just don't understand TurboTax" Geithner, most fourth-graders can understand that if you must use 100% of your gross income to pay your bills, you won't be able to buy food or shoes or fuel.  Today's graph at American Thinker projects where the USA is headed based on today's Federal Debt, next year's mandated spending, and where we as a nation will be financially in ten years of "Obamanomics."  I suggest learning to love Tofu Chow Don or eating Halal foods:

Or, We, the People, can purge the system of the current profligate spenders and return toward being the greatest nation on this earth, the world's breadbasket, that "shining city on a hill" of which President Reagan so eloquently spoke.  The choice is NOT Washington's to make for us:  the choice is OURS, beginning in the 2010 elections, just a few short months away, and continuing into 2012, and by 2014, the entire roster of Congressional and Executive members could be rewritten, and our country may yet escape the financial collapse being orchestrated by "Tsarina Pelosevich" in the House, " Grand Vizier Harry 'Jafar' Reid" in the Senate, and "B.S. O'Bumble" and his band of co-conspirators in the White House.  The United Socialist States of Amerika is being built right in front of our faces.  Do you really want to live like that?  Ask any Ukranian immigrant about that.

So it's pretty much up to you at this point.  The first "Tea Party" in Boston, 236 years ago this past Wednesday, was about the forced transfer of wealth (taxes on import profits) from America to Europe without recourse. "NO Taxation (see Tom Paine's definition in the right-hand column) Without Representation" was their battle cry.

Ever written to your Senator or Congressman?  Don't you just love to get a nice form letter/pat on the head/ political Party Line and being told that you don't "see the big picture" about our country enough to have your opinion matter in the least and "your" representative will "vote his conscience" in spite of public opinion and those of the majority of voters?  Try telling YOUR boss that, next time you're asked to work overtime, 

It's why we have the First AND Second Amendments:  to protect the rest of our rights from today's elitist tyrants in Brooks Brothers and Armani suits.

Fannie Mae Redux

Fannie Mae and "Freddie Mac," the quasi-governmental corporations which guarantee mortgage loans and have already recieved more than $500 billion in bailout funds this year, are now asking for an additional $400 billion each before year's end, purportedly in order to stave off the collapsing mortgage markets.
Sounds oddly like drilling holes in the hull of the Titanic to let all that icy water out and keep the ship afloat.
Listen closely to Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke's lucid statements in my previous post, then listen  to Arlo:

"Person of the Year"

Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke, the financial wizard.  No wonder President Obumble thinks "healthcare costs" will sink the Federal Government.  Two who apparently slept through Econ101.

Dear Senator Wyden:

Senator Wyden, most Americans are content with the healthcare plans they currently have, according to today's polls. Also, according to today's polls, the majority of Americans do not want the Federal Government to "reform" the healthcare industry at all, yet both House and Senate seem hell-bent on jumping into the depths with both feet.


So, who represents the majority? And what authorizes the Senate to "mandate" health care insurance? And, most important, if both of 'my" Senators are locked into this byzantine and labyrinthine "reform" bill, to whom shall I plea?

We don't have the money for this thing, Senator Wyden. In a Disney world, perhaps, but here on earth, we just don't have the money, sir. I'm certain that our friends, the Chinese Communists, will, for a price, float another trillion-dollar loan, but at what cost? At what cost?
Dump this thing before it sinks your career..

Get Yours Before Supplies Run Out!

Thanks, Roger!
