Obama continues to break Transparency Promise

Our Dear Leader promised to increase goverment transparency under his administration.  That was clearly another lie told to dupe the sheepeople into voting for him.

The latest example is the BHO regime denying access to the actual numbers for it’s faux-Green “Cash for Clunkers” program.

What is our Dear Leader and his socalist cronies hiding from the American People?  Shouldn’t he be proud of what he is trying to do to America and shout his intentions from the proverable rooftops instead of trying to ram his policies through Congress quickly and often under the cover of darkness?

Here is the video that the left doesn’t want you to see.

I’m not kidding. They are attacking Bob Parks and working hard to pull this video off YouTube whenever it goes up.

The left is flat out afraid of the truth and doesn’t want the American People to be exposed to the truth.

Bad move by Apple

Apple barred the new Google Talk App from the iTunes App Store.

The initial claim was that the app duplicated core services of the iPhone.

To get around Apple’s monopolitics ban, point your iPhone browwer to www.google.com/talk.

There has been other fallout from Apple’s ban, besides pissed off customers, the FCC is asking questions and Google CEO Eric Schmidt resigned from Apple’s Board of Directors.

Then there is also the added buzz about Google Talk this has generated. Perhaps it would have been better for Apple just to have allowed the app in the iTunes app store.

Our Dear Leader will take a break from trying to destroy the US economy by vacationing in a $20 Million dollar rental home on 28 acres of prime Martha’s Vineyard real estate..

Nothing is too good for our Dear Leader while his misguided policies force unemployment toward 10% and beyond!

Fur and Loafing in Yosemite by Phil Frank

The story of a family of bears in Yosemite National Park and how they deal with nature, campers and the National Park Staff. Very funny stuff. If you have ever been to Yosemite National Park, you will recognize a lot of what he’s poking fun at.

Funny even if you haven’t been there!

Interesting facts about ObamaCare

RWS has a list of actual items from our Dear Leader‘s so-called “Health Care” bill that he probably doesn’t want the majority of the American People to know about until it is too late. Here are some of the worst ones.

Pg 22 of the Health Care Bill MANDATES the Govt will audit books of ALL EMPLOYERS that self-insure.

Pg 30 Sec 123- THERE WILL BE A GOVT COMMITTEE that decides what treatments/benefits you get.

Pg 42 – The “Health Choices Commissioner” will choose your Heathcare Benefits for you. You have no choice.

PG 50 Section 152- Heathcare will be provided to ALL non-US citizens, illegal or otherwise.

Pg 53- Severability (KEY GEM)

“If any provision of the Act, or any application of such provision to any person or circumstance, is held to be unconstitutional, the remainder of the provisions of this Act and the application of the provision to any other person or circumstance shall not be affected.”

Pg 58 – Govt will have real-time access to individual’s finances & a National ID Healthcard will be issued.

Pg 59 lines 21-24- Govt will have direct access to your bank accounts for electronic funds transfer.

pg 124 lines 24-25 No company can sue GOVT on price fixing. No “judicial review” against Govt Monopoly.

pg 127 Lines 1-16- RE: Doctors- The Govt will tell YOU what you can make.

Pg 145 Line 15-17 An Employer MUST auto-enroll employees into public option plan. NO CHOICE

Pg 126 Lines 22-25 Employers MUST pay for Healthcare for part time employees AND their families.

Pg 149 Lines 16-24 ANY Employer with payroll $400k & above who doesn’t provide public option pays 8% tax on all payroll.

PG 150 Lines 9-13- Businesses with payroll between 251k & 400k who doesn’t provide public option pays 2-6% tax on all payroll

Pg 167 Lines 18-23 ANY individual who doesn’t have acceptable Healthcare according to Govt will be taxed 2.5% of income.

Pg 170 Lines 1-3 Any NONRESIDENT Alien is EXEMPT from individual taxes. (Americans will pay)

Pg 195 -Officers & employees of Heathcare Admin (GOVT) will have access to ALL Americans financial/personal records.

PG 203 Line 14-15- “The tax imposed under this section shall not be treated as tax.” Yes, it actually says that.

425 the Federal Government will require EVERYONE who is on Social Security to undergo a counseling session every 5 years with “end of life counseling.”

Pg 425 Lines 17-19: Govt will instruct & consult regarding living wills, durable powers of attorney. Mandatory!

This bill seems to have less to do with “Health Care” than it does with getting a pipeline directly into the bank accounts of American Citizens.

“Investigator” harassing Gov. Palin tied to democrat party

Color me not surprised. The so-called “Ethics Investigator” who has initiated a string of harassing “investigations”, 15 of which have been dismissed as having no merit, against Gov. Palin “is a major donor to the Democratic Party as well as a partner in a law firm that represented Barack Obama’s presidential campaign.”

Friday B-Movie Pick: Man of the House

July 24, 2009 by · Leave a Comment
Filed under: Movies 

Tommy Lee Jones and Anne Archer star in Man of the House.

It’s a fun bit of fluff about a grizzled Texas Ranger responsible for protecting five Longhorn Cheerleaders. B-Movie bonus, it was written by my friend Scott Lobdell.

Bonus B-Movie points for identifying, without looking it up on the net, Anne Archer’s first movie.
