The 2012 Check List for America’s Survival
Many people make resolutions to start the year, but I think a list of things that must be done to protect and preserve the Republic should be tallied.
1. President Obama must be defeated in 2012 and the obstructionist Democratic Party must lose power in the Senate to ensure both houses of Congress will be Republican and in a position to initiate real change.
The “Save Obama’s Job” bill
In keeping with his policy of relaxing the administration’s grasp on reality, at the time of the speech there was no ‘Save Obama’s Job’ bill for Congress to pass, because nothing had been introduced. And just like the Congressional Budget Office does not estimate Obama speeches, the House does not pass speeches. It only endures them.
Aviation justice and the debt ceiling
Obama’s thinking has not evolved to the point where he wants to employ drone strikes on corporate jets, but he does want to end a tax break for jet owners as part of the negotiations surrounding a legislative package to raise the US debt ceiling from its current level of “extremely heavy” to the new level of “crush you and your grandchildren.”
Examining Obama’s “Moderate” Budget Proposal
by Doug Edelman
Social Security is about to go bankrupt. The President is correct in saying Social Security is not the cause of the deficit… but the decision under Democrat Administrations to eliminate the “trust fund” and “lock box” aspects keeping Social Security separate from the general fund of the US treasury IS a cause. Social Security might have remained solvent if it were not raided by prior administrations to fund their pet vote buying schemes!
End the ethanol subsidies
The subsidies and tariffs only fatten profit margins, reduce competition, increase consumer prices, cause frayed relations with Brazil over barriers to its sugar-cane ethanol entering US markets, and stifle technological innovation that could improve production efficiencies and lessen environmental impacts.
The Federal Reserve’s Magic Money
There are harsh facts being ignored about the present economic crisis. More than 42 million Americans were on food stamps in August, an all-time record and a number that is 17% higher than a year ago. The U.S. is experiencing massive unemployment and the American Bankruptcy Institute predicts there will be an estimated 1.6 million consumer bankruptcies this year.
GOP Senate hopefuls offer new ideas for 2011
By Deroy Murdock
Whether or not the GOP wins the U.S. Senate, several Republican contenders for the World’s Greatest Deliberative Body hope to promote some rather unique proposals. Republicans are running on such ideas as repealing ObamaCare, curbing federal spending, and making permanent the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts. Those are all fine concepts, but several candidates have gone beyond the old perennials to promote good, less-familiar ideas.
Obama Taxes Our Patience . . . Among Other Things
Our current president gives not a damn about anything but his warped ideology. I hope those deluded souls who applaud taxing the big banks – some of which never took TARP money, some of which were forced to take it, and almost all of which have paid back every dime – can keep the grin on their face when they are forced into foreclosure.
