We have met the Enemy and He is Us.

When I was 16 years old, almost 17, I had sex for the first time and almost got caught in the act. The girl was willing, if almost as inept as myself but we somehow managed to stumble through the act and get it done.

A couple of years later I found out that she had done the act with the husband of the first girl I ever kissed(but never had sex with) and this time, she got pregnant. Not wanting the child she took the only course open to her and had a backyard abortion. Got infected, lost her uterus to save her life and never had a baby to call her own.

Is this what you want to go back to? Is this what the GOP is trying to encourage? Look no further than Guatemala if you want to see the results of your policies:

Damn, how dumb can you be? How many times to you have to learn the same lesson the rest of us figured out in 1973? And thought we had put an end to it? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roe_v._Wade

Get over it GOP.

You do not control our bodies anymore than you control our minds or politics.

Why If YOU Paid a Single Dollar in Taxes, YOU paid too Much

How did he know?

It seems obvious now but at the time it was a radical thought. "An artificial person designed to protect the liability of the real people who controlled it."

Do not underestimate the capacity of corporations to game the system.

Republicans Carried to their Fainting Couches During Budget Speech

Did the poor little dears hear something that just made them swoon? Why yes, they heard from the president of the United States that their math just didn't add up. They heard that there is no excuse for being so selfish, for not looking after each other and for not sharing prosperity.

How hard can it be to understand that it is un-American to take food away from children who need it and health care away from senior citizens who will die without it?

I still do not understand why Obama is so kind and gentle and measured about it. But then again, I still do not understand why Americans would vote for the GOP candidates and so hope to be governed by people who hate them.

French Kiss a Corporation

Yes, it's time to tax the rich just like it's time to tax corporations. Only trouble is...getting some needed revenue from them would offend almost 400 people! But don't worry all you conservative bean counters...the GOP has got your back on this one. That's right...lets just compare how much they just saved you hmmmmm about 38 billion. Now lets see how much they just cost you hmmmm about 100-150 billion for the same 6 months by extending the Bush tax cuts to billionaires.

Best of all? They've trained you to think you got a bargain.

Neat little accounting trick isn't it? Damn shame it doesn't work out that way on my home budget plan.

Tax The Evil Rich?

It is time for the liberal minded, tax the evil rich people, to go back to school and get an education in simple mathematics. I am actually tired of hearing how we only need to tax the ultra rich to put the US fiscal house in order.... lets take a look at the numbers of the ultra rich.

Lets take the 100 richest people in America and not count their income but lets tax these evil people into oblivion and take 100% of everything they own. We end up with the whopping sum of $812,800,000,000.00 - now that is a HUGE sum of money and think of all the good we could do if we would just force all of these guys to sell everything they own and give it to us, the poor retched people who only have a car or three, food, tv's and if you are reading this then at the very least a computer you can use.

Now here is where the problem comes.... we are averaging a 4.11 billion dollar deficit a day, not how much we spend but how much we have to borrow every day. If we take every dime from the 100 richest all it would do would be buy us a little over 6 months time.

The problem is not the evil rich but the greedy government. The whole argument about making the ultra rich pay is just simple class warfare and nothing more. The rich should pay (PLEASE CUT ALL OF THEIR LOOPHOLES) but they are not the problem.... we are.

Until we can admit that we cannot keep taking more then we spend then we are headed for doom. Calling people names, play class warfare and acting like actual numbers to not count will never work unless you are some left wing lunatic running for congress.

Bring it on Puppies

You voted them in America. Now lets see how your Tea Party stands with the independent voters after their lunacy has real consequences.

Yes, you asked for it alright. No taxes for rich people, no taxes for corporations, in short no revenue stream with which to balance the budget and now all the cuts have to come from real people losing their jobs and shutting down the government.

But to be honest, I'm worried about Obama and his craven give-a-ways to the Tea Party crazies. Like the tax cuts for billionaires for example. Does he have the guts to stand up to them this time? For once he's showing a little backbone but you can never be sure about this guy.

What are we really fighting about here? It's not the money...the two sides are very close...it's an old GOP standby "CULTURE WARS". If it was about money the Baggers wouldn't have a tea pot to stand on: http://money.cnn.com/2011/04/07/news/economy/government_shutdown_cost/

That's right folks, it's going to cost the taxpayer money. The longer it goes on the more we have to pay.

Sort of like the Tea Party really...the longer they are in office the more the average tax payer will have to pay and the more the corporations will get out of paying. Stands to reason doesn't it?

Now where does the GOP go for its denial of MMGW???

So now where do the deniers of Man Made Global Warming go? They must have forgotten to pay their man enough money to lie about it.

No...the GOP's policy of delusional denial of the bleeding obvious has finally been exposed for what it really is: Intellectual Fraud.

Can't wait to hear the excuses for this one. It really does make for some amusing discussions I must say.

Best prepare yourselves my conservative friends, one of your most cherished delusions has just been imploded. By your own hands and at your own request no less.

Secret Agent 007 Had Nothing On This Guy

..."A secret agent of Ayn Rand all these years?"

This guy is the person most singly responsible for the housing bubble and subsequent meltdown. We're still paying the price for his nonsense.

Now he tells us...oops...there is really nothing you can do about it so just lie back and think of England while it's happening.

You really do have to wonder.

One other little snippet I found interesting in this article was that Ben Bernanke is now doing the same thing! Sort of like Greenspan peed in one pot till it over flowed into the soup and now Bernanke is just picking another pot to pee in but it will eventually over flow into the soup we all eat just as surely as the last one.

This time the Fed is force feeding money into the system and calling it: "quantitative easing". With rates at zero what do you think is going to happen when global food and commodity prices get out of the reach of ordinary folks just like the cost of housing did under Greenspan.

It is one thing to be foreclosed on and have to move to another home. Or even be homeless for a while. What do you think might happen if the cost of even feeding yourself and your kids is out of reach and the GOP has killed the food stamp program as your last safety net, as they are trying to do? And that's just in this country.

I know what I would do. I've done it before. I haven't forgotten what it felt like or how it was done for that matter.

True, I'm not as fast on my feet as I once was and that bus may well hit me the next time I stand in front of it. But then again, I might just still be willing to see if the driver is willing to run down an old geezer while looking him straight in the eyes. She wasn't the last time.

Great Americans... they have fun too

I am giving the photos sent to me a second try..... I hope you enjoy.

We know who you are and we know where you live.

A ‘Super-Rich Delusion’ is leading us to ruin.

Repent before it is too late. Start seeing both sides of the financial ledger dear Tea Party/GOP activists or your friends and neighbors and even your children will do it for you.

Force you to see it, that is. By force if necessary.

Did you know that one persons suicide started all the ongoing revolutions in the middle east? This was not an expected outcome for the governments of the day.

Then again, young people are so danged unpredictable aren't they? Lets see what they do when they realize they are being asked to carry the can for Fortunate 400
