FUZZY SCOTUSBALLS: ODDS ON NEXT ULTRA- LIBERAL ABORTION FRIENDLY S.C. JUSTICE

HOLY FUZZY SCOTUSBALLS, Batman: Odds on Barry's most likely favorite for packing the next ultra-liberal abortion- friendly Justice to the United States Supreme Court to keep the minority liberal balance the same at 4-4-1 (Kennedy, "depends on how I am feeling today swing vote". This will a tough pick for Barry having to pack and choose an ethnic liberal minority, pro-abortion female; merely so ultra-liberal Ruth Ginsberg does not get so lonely hanging around with all those male sexist pig Justices any more.

The first criteria is gender. If you are a man of any kind of racial/ethnic background, proceed to the bottom of the list. Because after all, ultra liberal Justice Ginsberg is feeling lonely.

The second criteria is, are they some ethic minority; in addition to being a woman. Black Hispanic lesbian female from Illinois would be highly preferred. But this is probably not a viable option of a mixed race/ethnicity and being a lesbian coming from Chicago. So, can Barry get close; while pandering to some other geographic area he has omitted in Cabinet Posts like the deep south or CA? Or, will Barry merely continue to decide based on resorting to some more Chicago-style deep dish cronyism?

The third criteria is judicial appellate court or state Supreme Court experience. Are they actually appellate court or state Supreme Court judges? Instead of lower ranked GOVS or merely law professors, or even worse, just some attorney?

The fourth criteria is short-sighted geographic political pandering for the 2010 election cycle. Can the Abomination pander picking up potential votes by selecting a nominee from a particular geographic area?

The fifth criteria is whether they already are part of the Abominating Administration; requiring a twofer-appoint a justice requiring replacing someone already in the abomination.

The sixth criteria is prior judicial opinions. Have they written anything that really would be construed as being outright wacky and embarrassing during a Senate advise and consent skewering process?

The seventh criteria is what President appointed them to be a federal judge, if applicable. Clinton appointtee, get one extra point. Bush appointee, minus 50 points.

BARELY CONSIDERED OR NOT CONSIDERED AT ALL CRITERIA:

Are they the best and most qualified jurist to spend the next few decades rendering important decisions at SCOTUS?

Odds: You have to be kidding. A long-haired Asian-American male token. Get real and get in line. It's hard enough to get another woman on SCOTUS. And getting a minority woman is really stretching it, as it is. What next for you liberal socialists; a lesbian Hispanic Supreme Court justice?

No. 17: Our favorite-someone not on the intentional far left socialist liberal pro-abortion media bias lists, yet:

Even money.

Now that we have seen the most probably choices, who would I recommend from this list? None of them. I recommend we just clone that rascally, opinionated Justice Scalia whenever there is a need for a new SCOTUS justice. If we have to have a woman to make Ginsburg happy, we will just put on wig on the Scalia clone so she does not get so lonely.

Dem Nuts Weekly Analysis No. 2 (May 1, 2009)

International crap: N. Korea commies re-opening nuclear weapons-grade facility. Swine flu panic goes pandemic. US pork flu panic continues to infect politicians requiring us to pay for treatment until cure for congressional pigism is finally discovered. Egypt subjects 330k hogs to capital execution. Britain withdraws all troops from Iraq. Ignored rest of world crap to save blog space making crime fighter Dr. JOCOSOB happier. Condensing to 1082 word essay impairs snarkiness score; while plummeting readability score to 10th grade level. Something has to go next week.

Domestic Crap: Sat. IMF meeting in DC; hundreds of patriots beaten with batons and pepper spray. Sun. National domestic blog mod take-nap day. Mon. Lots of crap day: a) Congressional swine flu caused by Pelosi Virus HR1 goes panicky; while viral HR2 Reid confirms suspicions of Barry’s delusional megalomania stating “I have a gift, Harry” and b) Barry rhetoric regarding regulating credit card industry is political fluff making me want to ROFLMAO because way too many DC politicians greased regularly by financial PACS; and c) Scare Force One NYC photo op disaster; and d) Gov. Motors proposes to swindle taxpayers 225 sh. for each $1k for our secured loan of 15.4 billion in conspiracy with Fire Treasury Tim. Bad deal usurping Congress will merely allow GM to inflate their balance sheet until default and bankruptcy leave us with $0 billion.

Tues. PA Sen. RINO, 79 yr. Benedict Arnold Specter finally flips ensuring GOP win in 2010. Wed. Revised GPD 6.1% drop confirms Happy Depression Day. To which government, stock mkt. and media ignore; same day of the 100 day mark of Abomination. Congress approves 3.4 trillion historic fed. budget with anticipated record 1.2 trillion deficit. Fed. Res. leaves int. rates at 0% flooding $ hoping to make businesses and consumers spend $ instead of hoarding cash messing up Abomination Plan. Barry’s 100-day speech highlights was a promise of ending no-bid contracts and stating that immigration reform battle will be sometime this year; while ignoring past "corrosion of American character" on torture.

Thur. Joe “the gaffer” Biden recommends to avoid flying/subways and enclosed structures. Fri. S.Ct liberal Souter retires in June which will make Barry’s 1st and hopefully only pick interesting over the summer.

Stock market crap: 50 cent k plans have improved since March 6 to 100 cent k plans. Expect correction soon back to 50 cent k level again as realization we are in a depression starts hitting the reality fan. Appears further delays in May 4 bank stress stuff. Too big to fail banks cannot continue hiding worthless assets on their balance sheets forever. Ken Lewis is BAC history. Chrysler goes Ch. 11.

State Crap: Sat. KS health officials issue holy crap alert confirming two cases of swine flu. Naturally, all were already aware of the seemingly incurable Congressional Swine Flu hitting KS porkers for years. (Pelosi Virus HR1). Sun. Posts related to a debate on a watered down, pro-friendly unlawful, pro-business immigration bill makes news. KS SB 428 will ensure KS becomes an even bigger refuge state for unlawful immigrants explaining why KS would be a lot better without Sen. John Vratil. Mon. No clue. I forgot.

Tues. DINO GOV Parkinson’s first speech stating “refreshing time of astonishing renewal” is as bad as a press release by “I want to be KS GOV” Dem Nut Sen. Steineger’s incredible statement ending with “I believe in winning the BBQ!” Both of which indicate Tues. was full moon crashing to earth day, again.

Wed. Horrible HHS appointment of Kate (I refuse to give my real Catholic middle name) Sebelius is finally gone solving many of KS’s problems. Making me ahs happy as the Wizard of Oz. So, Be Happy. Don’t Worry (until Kate does anything official as HHS Sec.). KS Majority Lead O’Neal refuses to schedule joint session with new GOV Parkinson until Thurs. Thurs. New KS GOV Speech. Kate gone, so KS legislature expected to soon override “I love abortion” and “I hate energy” vetoes. Fri. Possible state employee pay cuts of 5% instead of 1 day/mo furlough.

Local Crap: I overcame my evil lawn mower Diablo. Son in horrible TX completed his first 42 mile bike rally; while I finished a sloth jog marathon to restroom in record time. Disguised DHS brown shirt came by Mon. pretending to be a US Census worker. (BS hereafter). BS wanted to confirm the number of my house; despite giant house numbers and things called street signs. A clear DHS rouse demonstrates why POTUS should not be in charge of Census. So, fair warning alert-suspected BS will be around alleging to work for the Census to determine if you are a domestic terrorist.

Made huge 9 cent gain selling DOW making me want to squeal like a capitalist pig. Helped Barry create .00017 jobs by spending $12 on Pelosi HR1 swine flu bbq special. Campaign focused on earmarks solution for 2010. Considered selling political soul to get every Kansan a gazillion bacon dollars.

JOCO Tax Appraiser fascists sent notice stating my evidence in an informal non-evidentiary teleconference hearing was not sufficient-new JOCO scheme. Onward to BOTA friends for our annual funfest where I ask for evidence I was never asked for, or given the opportunity to submit. JOCO Sun Editor Chris Rogers is refusing to communicate with me.

Finally, delaying a wrap up on PorkBall series/awarding Golden PorkBall award. Basically, different stuff due to Happy Depression starting this week. Will probably be Republic troll mod again at open forum weekend @ http://kansasjackass.blogspot.com just to annoy dem nut demiwants.

New words to add to your political lexicon: If a person that twitters is a twitwit; then by extension, a person that blogs would have to be called a blogwit. Also consider adding the word blogdumb. That is the final word.

On to the top links of the week.Top Links of the Week worth analyzing: The 100 day-100 mistakes of Barry’s Abomination administration by priority is available at: http://www.nypost.com/php/pfriendly/print.php?url=http://www.nypost.com/seven/04252009/postopinion/opedcolumnists/100_days__100_mistakes_166.

Can anyone think of 100 good things by priority Barry has done? Hopefully, all domestic terrorists mailed their certificate to Janet “I deserve to be fired” DHS Sec. from last week’s top link @ http://www.reason.com/terroristquiz/.

Top invasion of privacy link for demiwant dl photos is @ http://www.license.shorturl.com.

Best blog ever link remains New Style Kansas Politics @ http://independentkspolitics.blogspot.com. 2nd place, JOCOSOB.

Copyright Legal Mumbo Jumbo: None. Go ahead and steal it. Merely pretend you are a Crook of Congress, Sec. of HHS, Fire Treasury Tim or DHS Sec. “you are all domestic terrorists including sneaky Canadians” Janet.

Dem Nuts Weekly Analysis No. 1 (4/25/2009)

This was published originally on April 25, 2009 @ http://jocosob.blogspot.com/. Figured I might as well also post here on my own blog.

Dem Nuts Weekly Analysis No. 1 (4/25/2009)

Dem Nuts Weekly Analysis Intro: Thanks for a public forum to give your blog followers a dem nuts weekly analysis. As well as the opportunity to give feedback on what fiscally conservative people understand is important. The goal is political satire in a snarky format until I switch to serious political commentary. Basically, I am keeping at eye on fiscally irresponsible socialists trying to annoy as many demiwants as humanly possible.

Hopefully, fiscally conservative bloggers can anticipate what the dem nuts are scheming next; thereby anticipating, benefiting and taking advantage of their flawed progressive socialist-commie demiwantism.--dem-i-want-ism. (I want this and I demand fiscally conservative middle class people work and pay for it via some kind of an irrational doomed abominable economic redistribution scheme).

International crap: Barry returned from his listening pacifist agenda with evil despots and dictators trying to make the world a little safer. Award one point and hope Barry’s risky international plan works. Sea captain rescue tell us defending ships on the open seas with fire hoses seems a tad bit moronic. A cruise-missile launch for targeted Somali pirates before they launch might be an appropriate progressive step to clearly establish why sea piracy is historically not a wise economic strategy. For domestic pirates which are more numerous (demiwants), the best weapon to deploy is the 2010 election cycle missile. Hopefully, there will be no pirates at our local lakes, yet. But seriously, consider deploying your own strategic anti-pirate local defense systems ASAP. IMF and dim global declines of 3-4 trillion suggest commie dems should all invest in China since it actually will continue having a declining positive GDP.

Domestic Crap: Barry’s still trying to get various tax schemes to pay for the second part of his Spend and Tax agenda-the Tax portion. Irresponsible and wasted social spending of historic amounts is basically over. But these demiwants will keep trying to waste even more. Now that blowing our tax dollars part is over until next year, Barry has to shovel thinly veiled tax schemes like Crap and Trap and/or a Carbon Tax. Basically, a regressive indirect utility tax on the air we breathe continues to dominate dem nut tax schemes.

Barry’s tax schemes are a huge fiscal priority. If Barry cannot con us into some huge tax scheme, other flawed and irrational dem nut domestic plans like forced health insurance on everyone cannot move forward. This would make the rich drug, medical and insurance industry and their PACS and lobbyists unhappy. So, anticipate all kinds of clever federal tax schemes for the rest of his administration. As well as anticipate every government trying to do the very same thing in creating their own tax schemes.

Meanwhile DHS Secretary “I need to be fired” Janet continues to classify our war veterans as high-risk domestic terrorists; while also insulting all Canadians within a one week time frame. To find out if you, your spouse, lover, neighbor, boss, co-workers, parents, grandparents and even your children or pets are domestic terrorists, find out for certain by having them take the simple quiz at http://www.reason.com/terroristquiz/. If they are, be a patriot and report them to DHS pronto until Janet is fired as Secretary of DHS.

In regard to “looking forward” instead of prosecuting Bush war criminals is absurd logic that by not looking to the pas,t merely ensures Barry will repeat Bush-like domestic surveillance and be unable to resolve GITMO.

The stock market and the 50 cent k plans are up and down again raising economic anxiety as people are realizing the 19 biggest banking institutions inflated numbers are fluff packed with billions of increasing non-performing assets. Nationalization of banking and the auto industry continues. Barry can’t make his mind on whether economically unviable Government Motors should take bankruptcy. Or instead, do something really stupid-take our 13.4 billion tax secured bailout loan and convert that into unsecured equity stock. Brilliant provided you are really a stupid moron that works for Treasury Tim. If I told you my corporation was going bankrupt real soon, would you say “bummer, let me help you out by buying a bunch of your stock.” This is moronic. And that’s what dem nuts are suggesting doing with our taxpayer money.

Wednesday, April 29 will be Happy Depression Day as real GDP numbers will be negative for the 3rd time meeting the standard economic definition of a depression. Celebrate depression by taking massive anxiety medications/most favored substance needed for coping. To make the depression even worse, May 4 the Treasury will use puffery to gloss over reality regarding their financial stress test to delay a huge economic meltdown.

State Crap: Kansas Governor issued distributed an email dated April 17 once again recommending a change in tax policy rescinding prior planned tax reductions, incorporating fuzzy transfers, advocating a decoupling from federal tax policy. Further, there was rejoicing by both parties the high possibility Kate was getting her ahs out of Kansas ending her long history of legislative obstruction. Thursday, Kate ensures abortions continue with her “swan song” veto. Consider sending her a glad you are leaving KS gift.

SIDENOTE: From a state perspective, it is important to understand the biggest mistake after Barry’s election occurred while Obama attended the National Governor’s conference. Most of the state GOVS were whining about having to cut back on their respective budgets/facing reductions in state employment. Barry caved and shifted huge chunks of federal budget outlays originally planned for domestic infrastructure. This wasted mistake is merely going to backfire and merely give about a one-year delay to reductions in state budgets, programs and employee cutbacks.

However, it is important to note after Barry rescuing every state government, he stated shortly afterwards GOVS better use this bailout of state governments wisely because there will be no more federal state government bailouts later. So expect a lot of rotten stuff happening at the state government level. Barry’s cave-in to save state GOV(S) (bureaucracy) instead of spending on infrastructure will go down in history as a huge political/economic blunder making the rest of his economic agenda doomed to the fiscal crapper.

Now the various state GOVS understand their budget problems are only delayed. This includes Kansas. So, expect going forward not only federal tax increases, but state, county and local tax increases as all these governments strive by irrational methods every effort to fight from limiting the size of their respective governments budgets, agencies/staff levels via various and assorted tax schemes. In simple terms, you the tax payer are screwed some more for quite a while going forward by all these different governments.

Local Crap: I overcame the nightmares and horrors related to doing my dirty laundry and washing the dishes; while becoming convinced I need to join a support group so I can relate better to my rotten and ungrateful vacuum cleaner. M congressional campaign remains focused on earmark reforms and possible progressive tax policy positions favoring the middle class. I am also enduring JOCO Tax Appraiser fascists that are still not timely processing my appeal of their ridiculous property tax assessment, again; but still wanting my tax protest check May 15. Lots of work related to continuing my snarky PorkBall series at my separate blog, New Style Kansas Politics @ http://independentkspolitics.blogspot.com/. Basically, SOS.

Back by Popular Demand-Round 2 : Odds on What Cabinet Post Gets Canned First

Now that the Cabinet Post draft is over, vetting fun is no longer on C-Span Comedy Channel and all Cabinet Posts have all been finally appointed; in spite of the difficulty of trying to find an honest democrat that is not a cheater, it's fun time for Round Two of:

What are the odds of which cabinet post gets fired first (or leaves for any fabricated phoney-baloney reason)?

So back by popular demand, I'll be editing the odds when I feel like it. Because frankly due to a total denial of the media of the start of the Happy Depression yesterday but not ignored by the blogwits-the new way to get unbiased news quickly. I am feeling pretty blogged out at the moment-a blogdumb. So stand by for edits and new odds being posted. Probably after I finish burning my dinner, a Pelosi Swine Flu Panic Special. (HR1).

But remember, everyone avoid transporting yourself as suggested by Joe "the gaffer" Biden today. Avoid any enclosure including every method of transportation: bicycle, rail, skateboard, subway, pogo stick, car, air, roller skates, submarine, Harley hogs, or any other other method of dangerous and highly hazardous means of high probability infectious transportation. Just call in tomorrow and tell your boss you are just doing what was suggested by Joe today and therefore, you are merely being a good American patriot. Soo-eee, everyone merely panic and stay home tomorrow. Just not my home, you infected deadly swiners.

For special people from Ark., no driving pet hogs to work. Leave Porky at home. For TX, no driving longhorn steers. And please TX, do secede. You are like a whole other country-Red China. In regard to open borders, we must keep Mexican border open so work in CA, NM, TX and AZ can actually get some work done. We cannot afford to let Home Depot collapse. Canadians, do just stay home. We all know you are domestic terrorists. Just like Janet, I hate veterans" stated last week.

Probably same really horrible prize as before. Correctly guess the correct first firing on the right date by posted comment and you get to replace that Cabinet Secretary. So, hurry up and amend your past 3 years of cheating on your tax return before we vet you next. New favorite pop culture slogan: "Don't vet me, bro." I would give a cash prize to the winner instead of punishing them with a Cabinet Post, but it would be my luck that would be illegal in KS.

In order of succession to the Presidency:

Vice President of the United States Joe "the gaffer"Biden: .

700 gaffes to 1. We still love Joe despite his craziness.

Have A Happy Depression Day Today

HAPPY DEPRESSION DAY TODAY

Happy Depression Day is Wednesday, April 29. Hope everyone celebrates with generous amounts of Depression Soup as I previously wrote about. Remember, don’t panic yet. This is not the Great Depression. The US Dept. of Commerce officially reported really bad revised GDP numbers this morning. Officially, this is the 3rd consecutive decline in GDP making the recession move to an official depression. Which means next quarter's decline in GDP should look great in retro.

Plus in other good news, Congress approves 3.4 trillion federal budget projecting a historic deficit of 1.2 trillion. Naturally, all this crap is provided you trust anyone, that intentionally calls themselves an economist. Like Treasury Tim and his scam this week related to converting our secured $15. 8 billion GM bailout loan and converting it insanely to around 99% unsecured equity in economically unviable Government Motors. This usurpation will cause an almost immediate lose of 10 billion dollars of our tax money. Which more than likely, will be worth $0 billion when GM goes bankrupt later. Fire Treasury Tim, another freaking economist we cannot afford.

Maybe Barry will talk about it on TV tonight. But don't hold your breathe on that happening. Typically, it will be "rah-rah I saved the world" kind of 100-day megalomania kind of speech tonight with my 1.75 trillion projected historic federal budget, 4 times last year's federal budget. And we all thought Bush was a rotten irresponsible politician.

News yesterday reported Barry's second part, the tax portion is shooting the moon for 1.5 trillion in taxes. Good luck with that happening. Even with a dem nut socialist controlled Congress for the last 4 years. I'd do some of that figurin' on how much 1.5 trillion divided by 300 million Americans computes to, but my cheap calculator does not work when I try to input trillion or more amounts. And even I have a hard enough time figuring how many zeros it takes to be certain that big a number is a trillion. Lots of zeros. Too many zeros.

It’s merely the Happy Depression until mass bank failures start depleting the recent 500 billion FDIC funds Congress recently added to avoid a massive run on the banks and to replenish more anticipated bank losses. What is the count ytd-24. Hopefully, everyone will listen to Bobby McFarin sing “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” around 6000 times/hour on Happy Depression Day instead of King of Darkness, Ozzy Osborne. Continue taking appropriate Rx/preferred coping substances as many times daily as you want, as needed indefinitely.

I did try to determine based on GDP, when was the last depression based on US Dept. of Commerce. This may be my first official depression. Because I could not find any data that indicated we have in fact, had an economic depression since the Great Depression. So, I guess we should all by partying tomorrow as we face an event most of us have never experienced.

I highly suggest one ask for Depression Sex. I mean this is a lot bigger event than the often requested Birthday or Happy New Year Sex. Give it a shot. This is a historic event that only happens every few decades. Try the emotional crying stuff as a last resort. I mean you should be able to fake being depressed on depression day. So do some groveling. Maybe you will get lucky with such a lame reason using typical man-thought. The downside risk is about zero. Let's face it. Rhetorically, what is the worst outcome? More rejection. Like we are not used to that by now. We men are masters of rejection. Which explains one of many reasons why we like golf and fishing so much.
.
I was saving this for my renewed week's guest post at JOCOSOB web site piece on Saturday titled: Weekly Dem Nut Analysis. But, the crime fighting Dr. wants me to condense covering the weekly geopolitical stuff from international to local level to less than the prior 1200 word essay last week. Naturally, you do whatever it takes to make blog mods happy. Unless it is a dem blog mod like Kansas Jackass Jason Croucher. So, this is part of that effort as I edit the draft version for posting on Saturday to the bare bones.

I can't believe Kansas Jackass commenters get mad over my substantial efforts as the part-time weekend open forum moderator. How ungrateful, until I remind myself, they really are jackasses. As well as progressive, way too liberal dem nuts socialists getting closer every day to becoming full blown commies. (Demiwants). In the political spectrum that makes America great, Kansas Jackasses are far past the rainbow, getting real close to the Twilight Zone neighborhood. So fiscal conservatives, try to help explain stuff to KS Jackasses. They need all the help they can get with their youthful, but misguided impractical dem nut idealism.

Tell them I sent you. They will really enjoy that. They also prefer to be addressed as Dem Socialists. These jackasses keep refusing to admit how much they love me as their token republican troll and part-time open forum weekend mod. So come on over to Jackass, my other part-time blog, regardless of what those jackasses think. However, if you are a fiscal conservative, these Jackasses will cause you a lot of grief. Which is one of the great joys of life-irritating a bunch of jackasses.

Just got via an e-mail from my buddy forced to be in the horrible state of TX a while. There is a new violation of your privacy to be found at this new link to the National Driver's License Database. Just by clicking that http thing below this line, you can obtain a photo of all Demiwants. Or even your own. Go here: http://www.license.shorturl.com/.

Kansas Reporting 4 Cases of Congressional Swine Flu: Pelosi Virus HR1

Congressional swine flu continues to be a huge epidemic; aka congressional pigism. This week's new word for the political lexicon. Especially in Kansas with four known congressional swines-porkers. Congressional swine flu is believed to have originated in Washington DC and is best known as the Pelosi virus-HR1. Tea Parties are one cure. Keep up the good work as true patriots and do not let fiscally irresponsible politicans that caused the mess give speeches. Also, do not let predatory leeches like AFP and the KC Hardly Fair Tax people get their hooks embedded in your grass roots middle class movement in their twisted and evil flat or consumption tax regressive tax schemes. The other cure for Congressional swine flu is the 2010 election cycle with a new batch of fiscally conservative medicine anticipated at http://www.fec.gov/. One link/source for further info:

KC Crime fighter/hero Dr. JOCOSOB @ http://jocosob.blogspot.com/. In addition, my relatively new rookie blog is now being follwed by a fellow fiscal conservative in Florida @ http://www.theundergroundconservative.com/2009/04/26/a-new-friend/. Naturally one of the goals of this blog is further expansion nationally. Florida blog mod is a native-born American citizen from Ohio and currently a long-time resident of Florida. His parents were exiles from Cuba. Hopefully, I can get him to make some comments pertaining to his unique perspective regarding restoring relations with Cuba. I merely like the shift I am seeing as clearly stated and intended by our founding father's Constituional respect of other nation's rights to us not interfering in their nation's rights to their national sovereignity. A complete 180 from Bush-led hegemony and imperialism which is one of many reasons I filed as a congressional candidate. As a matter of fact, I talked to the White House in 2007 about being a Presidential intern because someone certainly needed to straighten this guy out. Just imagine-Dick "Satan" Cheney and me in the same room. Pretty certain the news of the day would have been Presidential intern waterboarded and transferred to GITMO.

In other weekend news worth reading, 100 days, 100 mistakes is worth a read @
nypost.com/php/pfriendly/print.php?url=http://www.nypost.com/seven/04252009/postopinion/opedcolumnists/100_days__100_mistakes_166.
Which I will be addressing seperately in my new "Weekly Dem Nuts Analysis" giving a broad weekly overview of important stuff from international, domestic, Kansas and local geopolitical perspective from the eyes of one of nine filed 2010 congressional candidates in Kansas. Although, I have differing views on the NY Post's Abomination mistake priority.

Next: In my on-going PorkBall series, I am considering the next posting may be which pork was actually related to the operation of a federal government agency. I am pretty certain Lynn Jenkins will come in last place since most of her pork was to federal agencies, or can establish a reasonable nexus to the operation of the federal government, with only a few mil of pork to municipals having no nexus. How audacious and anti-pork of Jenkins. What was she thinking? Is she trying to be a maverick and go against the DC culture of porkballing? How radical in trying to keep one's congressional oath to abide by the United States Constitution and understanding what promoting the general welfare of the United States means. Damn radical.

She's messing up my campaign to give a gazillion dollars to every resident in the state of Kansas. Around Friday, June 1 campaign mode is going to make a couple of quantum leaps forward with a couple of surprises. Stay tuned. Thanks for visiting my snarky "I get it" blog unlike the current batch of political yahoos that do want to blog or communicate with you at all because they are infected with congressional swine flu. There is a cure to this kind of flu which will be reported when I wrap up the PorkBaller Series.

Finally, I got a pearl of wisdom from a caller pertaining to tax policy reform. The caller asked me a really simple question and then pro-offered a suggestion-This wise person asked me, "why are taxes punitive instead of rewarding a person for their labor? How fundamental. I thanked that person trying to tie that fundamental wisdom into my on-going research on tax policy leading to solutions that I incorporate into what I refer to as "participatory democracy"--where the taxpayer has some kind of control over their own tax dollars; instead of some yahoo politican infected with swine pork flu. I do continue to improve my ability to listen and understand the voices of concerned citizens. I do want to hear solutions. To me, they are the real solution. Best person for Congress-you.

I am merely a voice and data gatherer trying to gather a consensus of what the voters and non-voters want as better solutions and reasonable expectations from their alleged representative, your congressman.

Priority News Alert: 11:45 CST. Gag on Joe Biden unlocked and removed as he delivers the keynote address at the Fifth Annual Richard J. Daley Urban Forum in Chicago. We all know this is worth a gaffe or two. Standing by for him saying something stupid leading to gag being reattached.

PorkBall Series: Porkers love frying State Ed Bacon

In this on-going porker series, analyzing federal state bacon is more difficult to do a single-part analysis. Originally, I wanted to include state pork and state educational pork in one post. But it got murky so I am reverting to simplicity in this post only focusing on state education pork, subject to any revision.

When it comes to state pork, there are two distinct subclasses-funding state agency and other instruments of the state crap and funding educational post-secondary institution crap. Plus one has to understand the funding of county government crap and both community colleges and public state universities are merely instruments of the state. I also wonder if these porkballers are going to pass out bacon for education, why limit frying the bacon to merely post-secondary education?

State education pork has very little logical relation or nexus to promoting the general welfare of the United States or funding any federal government agency. But, that does not stop congressional porkers from doling out our federal tax dollars to state governments or instruments of the state in some kind of corrupt process. Why the states including Kansas can’t pay for their own crap once again remains a huge mystery demonstrating a fiscally irresponsible abomination of our United States Constitution.

a) State pork to community colleges/state universities

Moran: 15,751,185, total pork 49.2%
Jenkins: 14, 341, 185, total pork 21.3%
Moore: 10,283,185, total pork 6.8%
Tiahrt: 15,331,185, total pork 16.6%

Total Ed Pork 55,206,702. Total pork % for education 15.6%

b) Combined congressional pork for educational crap by post-secondary education institution

KSU-11, 941, 185 (Moran)
10, 341,185 (Jenkins),
6,283,185 (Moore)
5,341,185 (Tiahrt)

All our porkballers love KSU with the highest slab of bacon total
$ 33,906,740 pieces of bacon.

KU 1,000,000 (Moran)
4,000,000 (Jenkins)
4,000,000 (Moore)

Tiahrt hates KU. Total pork for Jayhawkers. $9 million. This excludes pork related to KU Med Center (State pork) and pork to fund a building for private doctors by Pork King Moore.

Wichita State 8,650,000(Tiahrt).

Cloud County Community College (Moran) 2,000,000
Fort Hays State College (Moran) 310,000
Hutchison Community College (Moran) 500,000
Butler Community College (Tiahrt) 840,000
Coffeyville Community College (Tiahrt) 500,000.

Community College Total Pork: 4,150,000.

Giving pork to community colleges is merely a free congressional x-mas gift of your federal tax dollars. Lynn Jenkins hates community colleges giving zero. To me, good for Jenkins. The other three fiscally irresponsible porkballers limited bacon to only five community colleges in the entire state. So, overall, congressional porkers hate community colleges.

In the context of frying bacon to state colleges and universities, this is merely the broad-based culture of congressman across the nation. Probably because its popular form of corruption of our federal tax dollars.

Based on total bacon amount, Moran (just barely) wins the very competitive Coveted Education Porkball. I am also have to revisions to Moran's 1/2 porkball for municipal pork because I originally included his community college pork as part of his muni pork.

Finally, congrats to Jenkins for winning the Citizens Against Government Waste Porker of the Month Award for broken promises related to all pork being limited to the federal government or a strong nexus to the federal government. She came close and still remains in last place for wasting federal tax dollars. Jenkins is going to have to waste a lot more of our money to rise to being Queen of Kansas Porkballers next fiscal year. (FY2011). Although Moran is giving her stiff competition.

It remains to be determined who was the best of the worst at being fiscally conservative. Clearly, Moore and Tiahrt are not concerned what-so-ever with fiscal conservatism. These two yahoos are in a class of their own doling out huge slabs of bacon.

Next in PorkBall Series: We are getting closer to the end of giving an overall summary, final commentary, and the ultimate Golden Porkball Congressional Award. At this point, it is clearly down to Moore vs. Tiahrt. Then, by around May-June, there should be some data on which Senator is the biggest porker. Neither Roberts or Brownback are fiscal conservatives when it comes to doling out bacon. Both of these two have been ruining our nation fiscally for a real long time. Back to work on the next post.

Feeling Decoupled? Back to PorkBall Series

I am still decoupled based on KS GOV April 17 decoupling recommendation tanamount to Kansas becoming its own country based on a recommendation by Kate. And equally disappointed her Senate hearing was not shown on C-Span Comedy Channel yesterday because it was not important enough.

I did however endure listening to Treasury Tim give reassurances and puffery related to how our entire domestic financial industry basically being in the crapper and can only be saved by private/government investments in purchasing their too big to fail increasing toxic or non-performing assets.

I merely wonder if I can buy Bank of America's 25 billion in non-performing assets for about six bucks. And then after doing this original post, he is now on CNBC talking about 3-4 trillion in global toxic assets which makes me think "should I rush to my bank now?" Thanks Treasury Tim for the banking collapse anxiety again. Not to mention on April 29, based on real GDP, the US will move from recession to a depression. But quoting Afred E. Neuman wisdom, "what me worry?"

Regardless, back to our PorkBall series with year-to-year performance data without bias for awarding another pork ball to the winner based on year-to-year bacon improvement. So first, the data in millions and then the pork ball award. Plus I am sticking in known Senate pork. Data for FY 09 is reported at http://www.congress.org/ for both. FY2010 data is compiled from each congressional web site and as noted previously in prior posts, arrogant KS Senators do not want to inform us yet, of their FY 2010 pork.

Senator FY09 bacon:

Brownback 87.1 on 79 earmarks
Roberts 53.6 on 47 earmarks

Senate Bacon 140.7 million on 126 earmarks for FY09:

Congressman:

Moran 8 million on 19 earmarks (FY09), 32 million on 30 earmarks, 398%
Boyda/Jenkins 38 on 49 earmarks, 68 millon on 21 earmarks, 178%
Moore 7 on 24 earmarks, 151 million on 52 earmarks, 2054% increase
Tiahrt 69 on 19 earmarks, 101 million on 41 earmarks, 152% increase.

HR Bacon 120 million on 111 earmarks (FY09)
352 million on 144 earmarks. (FY2010).
293% increase in total congressional bacon.
(Some rounding due to inability to master blog word wrapping).

Clearly, Moore wins another porkball on total bacon pieces and on a percentage basis. Now analyzing this data makes me realize how difficult it is to post spreadsheet data in a tabular format in a simple blog. Especially when doing edits of the original post because I lost a crapload of formatting when I posted, requiring a lot of post-edit fixing.

Second, other than the obvious lack of fiscal conservatism when the economy is tanking, it is interesting to note that total pieces of bacon (earmarks) and the amount of bacon (dollars) should make more pork recipients happier and all taxpayers less happy.

Third, in FY09, some of the congressman were worried about being called porkers due to the election cycle. For example, this year's pork king was basically afraid of voter pork backlash during an election cycle. (Moore came in last place in FY09).

Tiahrt was pork king for FY09 last year. Over the last two years, Tiahrt is top pork king for the two years combined with a total of 168 million barely beating Moore's two year total of 158.6 million. Moore merely caught up with his whopping 2054% increase in pork in FY2010; despite how he insists he is Blue Dog Democrat Co-Chair. Way to lead the blue dogs. Now during an election cycle in a hotly contested race, party leadership swings a lot of pork to a particular congressman like Boyda in order to look great back home. DNC , KS Dem Party and Boyda Plan failed.

Fourth, if I lived in Moran's 1st district, I would either have to love him for being a fiscal conservative ; or really be upset by his only bringing home the bacon of a pitiful two-year total of 40 million. But as previously noted, Moran got 1/2 pork ball for giving 53% to municipal pork.

Fifth, when reviewing pork, it is important to ascertain how KS ranks in slapping down the bacon based on the overall population of the state in relation to other states. Pork is a return of some of the federal taxes paid by Kansans. So, we should be certain KS is getting a proportionate share of pork from all these yahoo politicians. Overall, we are not. Meaning some other state(s) like Alaska are getting some of KS's share of the federal bacon based on population attributed to all KS politicians not asking and ensuring our state gets a proportional amount of pork.

To briefly summarize, if you like pork, our politicians are under performing in bringing home the bacon proportional to our state population. On the other hand, if are a fiscal conservative, our politicians are doing better than other state's federal porkers.

So based on FY 2010 data, let's give Moore another ball of pork. And also give Tiahrt a pork ball for his 2 year accumulative total and King of Pork based on two-year data.

Finally, I have a few more posts related to this porkballing series. I am getting weary of compiling and analyzing data; but this is important enough that it seems worth the substantial effort. And for all practical purposes, demonstrates why blogs are a lot better than the local media when it comes to compiling and reporting original data. In particular, the Crappy Red Star.

Next Porkball Post: I still want to post some details related to state pork including the tremendous amount of pork going to community colleges and state universities. How this kind of pork is somehow related to funding the federal government even by a fuzzy nexus remains a mystery to me.

I also may do a drill down into the 3rd District pork based on distribution in the 3 county area. I want to understand why JOCO gets so much and the other two counties in the congressional district are basically getting de minimis bacon.

KS GOV recommends KS Secede

News flash.

Source: Kansas Jackass, aka dem nut jackasses, demiwants, progressive liberal commies, neosocialists.

GOV of KS now apparently wants Kansas to secede from United States of America in her tax increase e-mail dated April 17 sent to the Kansas Legislature suggesting: "Kansas could save $77 million by decoupling from Federal Tax Code".

If the state of Kansas is going to decouple from the federal tax code, so am I. Decouple me, (big) bro.

New Kansas Slogan: Kansas, it's its own country.

Good move. Can't wait for decoupled Senators to ask about her secession plan tomorrow at HHS Confirmation hearing. Along with the tax cheating stuff, the omissions on Tiller the Killer contributions, her Blue Stem PAC, obstruction of the KS legislature, elite Kansas Cavalry, etcetereas.

Municipal PorkBall: Distortion of the General Welfare of the United States

Preamble to the United States Constitution excerpt:

We the people of the United States, in order to . . . promote the general welfare . . . do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

The United States of America-the nation. Not every geographic location, including some pedunk town in KS. However, when it comes to PorkBall, frequently pork politicians (Congressman and Senators) distort and refer to "promote the general welfare" while ignoring the entire preamble as written and intended by the founding fathers. It clearly could have stated the several states, and every municipality, township and geographic subdivision. But with purpose and intent, the founding fathers did not.

The founding fathers clearly wanted a small federal government by enumeration understanding and limiting the possibility and dangers of a huge central federal government being dangerous to our nation and ensuring the sovereign right of states, counties and their local communities to pay for their own crap having no connection to the national interest. (Federalism).

One advantage to a huge federal government is no requirement to have a balanced budget. Naturally, when there is no fiscal restraint, any huge central federal government can do a better job than any state, county or local community that does have to operate within a balanced budget.

The founding fathers could have, but did not state the several states; much less promote the general welfare of every municipality in every county of every state. Yet Porkballers do this intentional distortion for several reasons to justify funding of municipal projects with your federal tax dollars. Frequently, politicians try to justify a redistribution of fiscal insanity by claiming they know what is best for our local communities.

What they should be stating is what is best for the United States of America-the nation. It is also important to understand the United States of America and the federal government are two important but separate entities. For example, you can love the United States of America but not like the federal government or the yahoo politicians doling out your federal tax dollars.

Porker politicians justify pork handouts to local municipalities that have failed/chosen or omitted to pay for own stuff related to their municipal infrastructure. To be specific, water, sewer, police and fire, parks, local public education, museums, roads, bridges, ad nauseam.

Naturally, porkers also do this in their self-interest doling out our tax dollars in fiscal irresponsibility to get votes in a particular community to improve their chances of keeping their jobs. But this selfishness multiplied by every politician to every municipality in every state wanting, asking and getting municipal pork is exactly what our founding fathers wanted to avoid-a huge federal government responsible for every municipality in America. Our founding fathers were clear in purpose and intent of staying narrowly focused on a small limited federal government.

The founding fathers were clear the term United States of America is be construed narrowly in the context of a nation and certainly was never intended to include state, county or municipal pork. It was the responsibility of the residents of each state, county and municipal form of governance to choose, pay for, and be responsible for funding their own stuff. (The only exception authorizing federal funding to the state and local level is the passage of federal mandates). The federal government should pay for federal stuff limited to the nation. Conversely, locals should pay for their crap.

Historically, this distortion of federalism started with FDR. And has not abated since then. Instead of a narrow and limited federal government, politicians continue to move further away from the intent of our founding fathers with further and further socialism getting us to the point to where we are now a nation dominated by a huge central federal government. Broad-based fiscal irresponsibility with the federal government interfering and limiting a free market economy requiring ever-increasing taxes to fund more and more socialism to the point where the Abomination boldly proclaims "economic redistribution". Which so much interference in state's sovereignty, 3 states are talking about seceding again.

We, the people of the United States have to stop this nonsense. If it takes tea parties, so be it. We have to stop the doling out of federal tax dollars to municipalities that failed to take care of their own stuff and now expect all of us to pay for their failures to be responsible locally.

So, now let us go to back to our local Kansas federal porkballers and their passing the bacon to local communities. Of our four congressman, how does each one rate in doling out pork to local communities warranting the coveted municipal porkball award? But first, I think before doing so, we have to understand the concept of pork priorities. Given x dollars of municipal and apparently unstoppable distribution of local pork, which municipal pork projects are in the best interests as a nation? Surely, we can compare one municipal pork to another piece of municipal pork and state one over the other is far better from a national, state or local perspective.

Jenkins definitely gets no pork balls coming in last place for local community pork; provided her fuzzy earmarks have no surprises. Out of her purported earmarks of 68 million she promised not to get, only 5. 2 million of pork goes to improving local roads/state highways in Ottawa, Manhattan and Lawrence. (7.6 %). That is it. (This omits 4. 5 million to KDOT to merely study expansion of US Highway 69 to Ft. Scott-Pittsburg area. That is state pork). Why these local communities do not pay for this themselves is beyond me. These are all Congressional X-Mas gifts of your federal tax dollars to local communities too cheap to pay for their crap.

Jerry Moran, despite coming in last in total overall pork around 32 million, may deserve a pork ball for all kinds of ridiculous projects based on asking for the most local pork on a percentage basis. 17 million-53% of your tax dollars funding many local municipalities. And that is omitting his huge pork to local community colleges.

Next, is Todd, "I love giving your money to private corporations" Tiahrt, past winner of one pork ball. Will there be enough pork left for his local communities out of his 101.3 million? Apparently not. A scant 4.25 million. Most of which goes to the city of Wichita and 750,000 to the city of Rose Hill that has failed to take care of their own storm water drainage. So clearly, Todd loves private corporations and dislikes most local municipalities doling out a merely 4.2 percent of his pork. This is probably related to the huge contributions made by corporations as compared to small contributions to his political campaign by local citizens. Todd is getting even.

Finally, that leaves us with Dennis "moore pork" Moore-our undisputed champion of total congressional pork having already won the coveted prize of two porkballs. Excluding a crapload of pork for pork buses both in KS and MO, local churches and local non-profits, Moore's local municipal pork comes in at 75.5 million, most of which goes to JOCO, KS municipalities unhappy that that there streets and bike trails are not good enough. So, Moore only gets half a pork ball for municipal pork dollar total. (50% to local pork); while we give Moran half a pork ball based on the highest percentage at 53% on a percentage basis-a split pork ball decision.

Next post related to this series on PorkBall: Year to Year to comparison of FY 09 to 2010 porkball. Who wins the next Golden Porkball Award for most improved year-to-year fiscal irresponsibility?

PorkBall Update: Tiahrt wins one Pork Ball

Todd Tiahrt deserves special recognition for his pork of one pork ball. He is certainly special since he is :

a) responsible for a lot of fiscal irresponsibility and a master of non-accountability, but great at denial, excuses and blame for the huge fiscal mess we are in; and

b) wants a job promo he does not deserve, but unless anyone better runs for Senate, it will come down to election of who is the worst candidate we can tolerate. Personally, I think he deserves to be fired.

Todd gets one pork ball because of all the KS congressman, he gives 40% of his 101 million in pork of your tax dollars to private entities in Wichita. So, give one oink shout to a really crappy congressman.

In regard to Jenkin's fuzzy and ever- changing earmark numbers, today her staff including Chief of Staff Pat Liepold and her staff in DC refuse to disclose what her total earmarks requests really are. So, it's hard to get an exact and precise total making me highly suspect of her own web site and her as a politician campaigning on no earmarks. Not to mention her support and sponsor of a legislative regressive tax scheme.

In regard to Senate earmarks, I talked with both KS Senators offices in DC. Apparently as I was informed, Senators are special. They are going to piecemeal earmarks 30 days prior to committee markup for FY 2010-a changing date that allows piecemeal reporting. Senators are very good at at obstructing transparency efforts and not reporting their earmarks. And typically arrogant whenever any person makes an inquiry regarding the same. This needs to be reconciled in the name of transparency.

Naturally, Senators will fight that process so voters need to demand that process be reconciled with what is required by congressman. KS senators do not want you to know when requests are made; or who made the request until it to late until after they have sent out a press release after the fact, to brag about how wonderful they are. They are not wonderful. They are arrogant and hate to be accountable.

OMB used to a good source of data for getting some earmark data. Since Barry has taken office, there has been a notable change in OMB burying earmark data making it almost impossible to compile any meaningful data on Senators.

In other stuff worth noting, yesterday Obama announced his next tax scheme-tax simplification or "Tax Fairness" So hopefully crap and trap is going to get flushed. Now "Tax Fairness" is going to be eliminating a bunch of itemized deductions hitting the middle class. Barry will keep fighting for the second portion of Spend and Tax to pay for the first part-Spend. Which will only lead to even bigger Tea Party events.

Congrats to patriots and dissenters that did attend the non-political Tea Party events yesterday. I had prior obligations that prevented me from direct participation; although I did attend the first local Tea Party and informed a lot of others about these kinds of events. I especially appreciate some of the organizers for clearly informing politicians they are welcome to attend but not be headline speakers. Hats off to the Chicago Tea Party for not letting RNC Steele give any speech.

My favorite Tea Party was in Austin, TX with rocker Ted Nuegent as reported by fellow linked blogger, Big Feed, Captain Thurston. Both him and JOSOB help me keep things in proper perspective during difficult times for their snarky and satirical posts that make them blog heroes of mine.

JOSOB really deserves a tip of the hat for writing so often about the local and horrible crime scene in an unusual manner (dark satire). JOSOB deserves and has earned a bit of recognition for some of his work effort pertaining to reporting on crime. I merely wonder if there are Pulitzer nomination forms for web bloggers? There certainly should be, if there is not.

Do be careful. A lot of those connected with the Tea Party event organizers are also behind pushing for regressive tax policy schemes like Fair and Flat Tax schemes. Especially, the local Kansas City Fair Tax, Flint Hills, Koch Industries and KS AFP people.

Finally, in regard to DHS Secretary Report classifying almost every American as some kind of terrorist, this may and should result in the first voluntary Abomination resignation in Barry's cabinet. I personally volunteered as a vet to be placed on DHS's list. I recommend everyone else volunteer too. I am pretty certain I am already on several lists in Washington as it is. Proudly.

Next PorkBall Update: Porkball abuses attributed to a distortion and abuse of the "general welfare" clause suggesting why federal pork should not used to fund municipalities because they were too cheap or misguided to maintain their own infrastructure, wasting local taxes on worthless municipal projects and boondoggles. For example, think Jackson County, MO and Kansas City MO.

Exclusive: KS Pork-Moore wins coveted PorkBall(s)

Moore is the undisputed king of Kansas congressional pork for FY 2010 based on initial estimates subject to any minor revision I might feel like doing. Moore also gets a most- improved pork ball player considering last year, his pork was a scant 7 million (more than a 22-fold increase from prior year). So next time you see Dennis, give him a well-deserved squeal.

Oink, oink Dennis. Glad to see your web site writes about fiscal conservatism and this kind of number should really impress your Blue Dog (or is it yellow dog) Dem buddies. Also, good job Lynn Jenkins for your follow the herd mentality by not keeping your promises on no earmarks.

Moore, 2010 King of pork: $151, 244, 040.
Tiahrt loves pork: $101, 303,000
Jenkins "I am not asking for pork except" : $68, 000,000
Last place, "get rid of Jerry" Moran: $31, 996, 185.

Losers: Kansas Taxpayers to the corrupt tune of around $352, 543, 225.

More analysis later as I drill down into specific corruption related to funding all kinds of organizations not related to the operation of the federal government. No data yet on Senate pork which is usually a lot bigger and far more "creative".

Merry Congressional X-Mas. Again, everyone request your own 2011 earmarks ASAP. Merely remember there is no standard for requesting pork. So, remember what Jesus stated a while back: "Ask and ye shall recieve." A lot of people obviously did. Why not you? Are you gonna ignore Jesus?

Author Footnote: Moore had a lot more requests for earmarks. He merely omitted some of them including my $250,000 earmark request to study and research how to end earmark nonsense-I am assuming my request was denied meaning I will have to come up with something even more bogus for FY 2011. So when you submit your earmark, get creative and give it bunch of phoney-baloney crap like the rest of the requestors.

Go ahead and get some practice by submitting your own draft earmark here in the comments section. I am sure we will all be entertained.

PorkBall: Congressional X-Mas Time

Porkball time. Data is now available on Kansas's Congressman's porkball winners via the tax and spend politicans. I will be doing a detailed analysis of this new round of pork through and after the Easter holiday. I have to file my own congressional campaign reports and other federal documents this week.

Generally, when I do an analysis of this data, I look to see if there is any connection related to the operation of the federal government. If not, its not just an earmark, its porkball. I also look at whether the pork is to what level of government operations-federal, state, county, local or not related to government at all.

More on this later. It merely takes a while to do an important and in-depth analysis of all this federal porkball giveaway we all pay for.

Jenkins: http://lynnjenkins.house.gov/appropsrequest.shtml

Moore: http://www.moore.house.gov/Resources/documents/EarmarkRequestsFY10.pdf

Moran: http://www.jerrymoran.house.gov/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1197&Itemid=105

Tiahrt: http://www.tiahrt.house.gov/?sectionid=127&sectiontree=7,127

I suggest everyone submit your own earmark request in writing with an affirmative response required so next time, you will be on the PorkBall X-Mas list also until such as time as this money for nothing corruption nonsense grinds to a big halt.

Demiwants want crap and trap

Due to all the socialistic youthful misguided dem nut idealism, it seems a few new words are appropriate to be added to the political lexicon-demiwants, demiwantists (the collective of the fiscally irrational socialists) and demiwantism (ridiculus silly doomed political ideology).

I keep noticing dem leaders like Barry in his abominable speeches; as well as, and in particular, KS dem blog people's favorite clause in blog writings seems to be "I want". I want this and I want that. Including a naive idea generally referred to "I want a free lunch" mentality. And demiwants always naturally want someone else to pay for it. Like me-- an intellectually enlightened, rational fiscal conservative, but still compassionate anti-demiwant. Compassion in this context means pity for broke-ass demiwants too lazy to work.

So let's stop calling them democrats and call them what they are-demiwants or demiwantists espousing demiwantism as a political ideology that has failed over and over throughout the entire history of mankind. Now this is the exact opposite ideology of old-time, pre-Bush GOP people who liked to state, "I am willing to pay x taxes for the services promised in the United States Constitution" based on a long-lost idea called fiscal responsibility, accountability and conservatism.

So, the question is what tax scheme, con job or shell game will Barry use to pay for all this demiwantism? Crap and Trap, aka Cap and Trade. Barry was slick and artful in his pre-election rhetoric regarding promising not to raise the taxes on all individuals making less than the arbitrary 250,000. After election, he broke that promise like a typical politican with buried taxes in the SCHIP legislation. (61 cent Cigarette Sales Tax).

Crap and Tax (huge taxes on your utility bill) is merely the next socialistic thinly veiled tax scheme by these demiwants. So technically, crap and tax is not a direct tax on individuals unlike the outright pre-election lie like the cigarette tax was. It's a pass-thru or indirect tax scheme to pay for all this demiwant socialism. So it's important politically going forward to understand Barry's tax agenda will be indirect, pass-thru taxes beyond rational belief.

Hopefully, crap and trap will be flushed down the toilet. Even a few dems understand crap and trap is a horrible idea that will only result in lots of political backlash resulting in a lot of GOP people getting elected in 2010. But still, there has to be a new dem nut tax scheme and the demiwants will give it a creative name like Save America Economic Stimulus Package or something similar.

In regard to prior posts, I commented how Barry's only success to date was related to space off the planet earth since his domestic and foreign agenda was not working. With the G-20 and NATO summit(s), we are seeing him expound further his "I am listening" international agenda. So I give Barry one point for attempts. While I applaud his goal of ending Bush hegemony, infringement on foreign soverigns and imperialism, Barry certainly got a lot of European rhetoric related to sending NATO troops in Afghanistan. Prior to the election, I stated if Europe likes Barry, that is not a good thing.

Europe wants the US to continue to pay for their country's national defense from international terrorists. That way, their respective countries unlike the US, can continue to focus on their own country's domestic agenda. Ironically, this tricky European plan has been working to the detriment of our domestic agenda making us look pretty naive. I merely suggest we should pull all of our troops out of Europe and make Europeans take responsibilty economically and with their lives to be responsible for all thier own country's protection from international terrorists and each other. The best reason-I want to hear all the crying by the wussy European socialists.

Finally, tomorrow is Gate's DOD 2010 534 billion dollar budget proposal including around 69 billion in supplemental funding for Iraq. With dem nuts in control, one would rationally expect to see a decrease in the DOD budget to help finance all this domestic socialism. Nope. DOD increase. The fiscal irresponsiblity of demiwants merely continues until around 2010 election time.
