SoapBox Day for Civil Rights Activists

Today is an important day for me as a humble civil rights activist. So, today is a SoapBox Day. No humor. Just a humble one time a year reflection.

As a civil rights activist, I studied better civil rights activists to see why they were so successful. Gandhi, MLK, Mother Teresa and Cesar Chavez. As well as not so famous civil rights activists like Dr. Phil and Oprah. Almost forgot to include the 13th Dali Lama so I can get affirmation of why I am so happy. (Excuse the edit).

They all advocated for a cause greater than themselves. They all favored non-violence. They found what was common despite their individual differences; while not interfering in their individual non-commonality. And because of it, they united masses of followers who believed in that greater common cause to fight social injustice.

On the other side of the equation, dividers do just that. They divide groups by classification to keep them from uniting. Create division within so they fight with other; instead of speaking in unity. Like Bush, the great divider has done. And don't forget his major source of inspiration, Satan. (aka Dick). Divide and conquer at all costs to keep people from uniting. That way, Bush and Satan could continue to promote their secret agenda of a new world order with things like "free trade agreements". They are not free to workers in America and their hidden, but not transparent agenda is the creation of this new world order for the benefit of the super-rich.

So I remain convinced that we, the people need to fight division and divide and conquer strategies. And the major tool of division remains these classification schemes. Race, ethnicity, ancestry, gender, religion, geographic location, economic status, etceteras.

Anything to keep groups of people from uniting tends to perpetuate social injustice. So a few in power can use their authority to control and prevent our unity.

So, I will continue to believe classification schemes will continue to keep us divided as a nation. And I oppose classification schemes as that civil rights activist. There is only one classification I support. Your birth. If you are born in America, you are an American-American. And that simple classification unites us.

So if you are born here, your uniting classification based on your birth is American. Just like mine. We need to avoid dividing ourselves by tolerating classification schemes. Or even worse, classifying ourselves by claiming to be some variation of X-American. Finally, the worst is allowing others to classify us. The major offenders are the governments themselves.

By claiming to be an American-American, we are united and can speak in unity for social justice because of that one simple fact. Or one step further, claim to be A World-American. Speak out for our unity when others try to divide us American-Americans by classification schemes.

When the census workers come to your house and ask your classification, just claim I was born here so I am merely an American just like you. Refuse to answer or ignore Census questions not related to your birth. And that's the only way we should all want to be classified. And more than likely, they will refuse to allow you to merely be an American. They will do the same thing as they did in 2000 and merely claim your native country is Other. Welcome to the United States of Other.

Whatever any governing body tries to classify you, merely ask them what power and authority made them suddenly anthropologists entitled to violate state and federal non-discrimination laws.

For example, if you are are pulled over in Kansas by a local law enforcement official, make him explain to you how they have been instructed to be able to classify your race/ethnicity. Also ask law enforcement officials why they are above federal and state laws as they ignore the law by knowingly, wilfully and intentionally violating the Kansas Act Against Discrimination and the Civil Rights Act of 1964 when issuing ticket citations. And one of my personal favorites, why do we have precinct committee members based on one's sexual organs-their gender? Shouldn't we elect the best qualified people without regard to their sex organs and seek compliance with the Kansas Act Against Discrimination?

And rhetorically, do sexist Ombudsmen hate women? Why are there not more Ombudspersons? Why do we have sexist titles like Madam Secretary in the federal government? What's wrong with just being Secretary of some cabinet post with adding some sexism to it?

When any organization asks you to classify yourself, merely state: "Sorry, I am not an anthropologist." Or, "I cannot. I do not have any scientific basis to unjustly divide myself by making a self-declaration of ambiguous terms like race/ethnicity". Tell them "you decide based on my skin color for me".

Or ask them if why you can't resort to how society judges you--as a native American born in America. Being born here makes you native to America. Where you reside is the common definition of being a native of that geographic location. Your birth does not make you a native to some country or continent based on some distant connection to some immigrant many years ago.

Or go to the other extreme if you are a bible-thumper and claim, don't know? What nationality, race and ethic group was Adam and Eve? All I know is I was made in the image of God. Not sure where God was born. Although most of us men know God had to be a woman or there would not be shopping malls.

If you are in court, ask the judge to determine your race/ethnicity for you. They really like that. Surely, their legal education and solemn oaths to uphold all laws like the Kansas Act Against Discrimination and the Civil Rights Act should make judges qualified to also be anthropologists.

Or, for those that want be to be classified based on your skin color, take a picture of your skin and go to some hardware store. Ask them to scan and tell you what your skin pigments are. And then, paint your walls that skin color so you will be invisible in your own home to surprise your significant other when they come home. Boy, will they be surprised by your ingenuity so much, they might suggest you better go paint the doghouse because more than likely, you will be living there for a while. Finally, when someone asks you to classify yourself, just hand them your paint sample.

Has there been social injustice because of classification schemes. You betcha. And social injustice will continue as long as we allow these dividing and conquer schemes to continue.

So in ending, I hope Barry regardless of some of his stupid economic theories, merely classifies us and him as belonging to only one class. The American Class.

Jumping off the soapbox. Back to being a smart ass tomorrow.

Delusions of Grandeur: Obamamania

Barry further demonstrates why he is now the new manic leader of John Nash with his delusions of grandeur because he now wants to write a new "declaration of independence". Its like the original version written in 1776 is not good enough.

Or, is Barry diverging down that path of megalmania? Or like a schizophrenic, is Barry's personality merely splitting in both directions? Regardless, the pressure of being President-elect has made him start appearing a tad bit crazy.

First, what nation is Barry declaring independence from? What usurpations of the Fantasy Express suddenly require a new Declaration of Independence. I suggest Barry might be declaring independence from the nation of Sanity. Barry might want to create a new cabinet post-Secretary of Psychiatry that can teach Barry to dance the Thorazine Shuffle at the Abomination Inaugural Ball. I am sure Ozzy Osbourne would be highly recommended. See ruler at http://www.ozzy.com/ featuring "I (Barry) am not going away".

Second, what next? Is Barry going to replace the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the American Flag as the soul founder of the Abomination? I wonder what Ted Neugent thinks about this?

Finally, I am really disappointed in Oprah. Clearly, she did not lose 15 pounds as promised. I just hope at one of these Abomination Balls, I get to see Barry trying to get his arms around her fat ass.

Recipe for Depression Soup: Abomination Earmark Stimulus

Head chef, Barry and his Abomination Plan has further disintegrated into one huge earmark package for dems. The perfect recipe for Depression Soup. This is no stimulus package. This is a dem appropriation bill. No wonder Barry states no earmarks will be allowed. Because all the dem pork is included. Not to be overlooked, Barry states he is going to create around 600,000 new federal jobs for dem cronies as part of his Jobamaunism Plan. (20% of 3 million jobs will be federal). Just what a rotten economy needs--600,000 more dem socialist federal bureaucrats.

Barry has sold his soul cooking to special interests and every dem politican in DC. And the billions keep being added daily to the soup pan as the the cost of the soup is getting closer and closer to costing a trillion dollars of national debt. And that's just this year. Who knows what he is going to cook up for FY 10? Probably shoe leather stew.

While concurrently, Barry's spending on infrastructure keeps shrinking. Total appropriations for infrastructure is now down to a palty 90 billion of the currrent estimated abomination of 825 billion. $825,000,000,000.00. Plus or minus a wooden nickel or two.

Barry 's soup is making the classic political error. Try to appease every socialist special interest known to man. Including all these whiny state governors. And all his plan will do is fail to stimulate much of anything. Same old DC. A narrowly tailored stimulus focused on infrastructure might have kept the pot from boiling over. But here, this soup is overflowing from all the pork added.

Expect the recession to grow to a depression as long as Barry "FDR" Hoover is in charge. The Fantasy Express honeymoon is over. Time for us taxpayers to eat some Depression soup for a long, long time.

I must not be depressed during a Fantasy Express depression. We all can still have some good times during this upcoming Depression. Attitude and humor is the key to staying happy while eating all this Depression Soup.

Blame the Fantasy Express dems while paying for it.

Bracket Contest-As Seen on TV

Getting cabin fever? Really desperate for some entertainment.
Go to a 64 bracket contest, "As Seen on TV":

http://www.cnbc.com/

64 bracket contest just started. Get some practice for March Madness.
See ad links for all that crazy crap you bought impulsively.

Its ok if you bought some of this junk. I admit I bought a Chia Pet and some Ginsu knives. The Chia Pet was more entertaining.

Holy Moses: Sailors get Bush

Holy Moses. Red sky at night, sailors delight.

Sailors are finally boarding the U.S.S. Bush. Sailors will be looking for Bush in every port world-wide. Now don't get this wrong--this is hopefully the first and only Bush the U.S. Navy will get because we don't want our sailors screwing around the high seas on a Bush Jr., or a ship named after Dick. (USS Satan). So be a patriotic sailor and volunteer to do your duty on the Bush ASAP.

Furthermore, Tuesday after some digging, Dick (Satan) and Bush (Hitler-light) are being removed from the White House. That event is worthy of rising to a worldwide celebration. Not real happy an Abomination is taking over. But hey, celebrate Tuesday anyway.

The ship is leaving port Tuesday. Anchors aweigh.

No more Dick or Bush.

Larry Flyntism

Larry Flynt and Girls Gone Wild need some bailout help just like those smut dealers on Wall St.

Maybe we will see Larry back at the Supreme Court soon so Woody Harrelson can make another movie.

Jobamaunism

Barry promises to give us Jobamaunism. Social welfare of 3 million jobs. He won't give a timetable for a good reason. From Nov. 07 to Nov. 08, there was actual job growth in total employment from the year before from 233 million to 234 million. (US DOL Bureau of Labor Management).

This small increase in total employment is due to new workers (new graduates and unlawful immigrants); representing an overall increase in US population of people that can work. (305 million people are in America from the latest US Census estimate).

So, as the US population continues to increase, naturally there will be a net gain in jobs at some point in time merely due to an increase in population. And Barry realizes this. So, it should be fairly easy at some point in the next four years for 3 million new jobs regardless of any socialist budgets/abomination.

Now on Barry's web site, the Abomination-Biden plan projects job increase of 1 million due to "infrastructure"socialism and five million jobs due to "green jobs" whatever that is, from a new socialist budget of around 800 billion dollars. A total estimate of 6 million new jobs. So Barry is hedging in his public speeches from what they write on his own web site by 3 million jobs; or simply can't add, or forgot.

Now a gain of 3 million jobs by any reason amounts to a scant 2% increase in total US employment. Whoppie. The cost of Barry's job proposal (the abomination) is roughly 3,000,000 new jobs/800,000,000,000 dollars. So, this equates to spending 266, 666 dollars per job. Good job, Barry except for not being able to add.

Now on Friday, we get the December employment and unemployment numbers. The rate of unemployment is supposed to be not as bad as November. The current estimates are we only lost around 430,000 jobs in December as compared to the prior of month of 588,000. The November total of umemployed was 10.3 million for an unemployment rate of 6.7%. (Mainly educated democrats). Not to mention the democrats that are too lazy to work at all and are no longer counted as being unemployed.

So, we all have to ask a question. Do we really need to spend 800 billion in socialism just so Barry can brag at some point in time, what a great President he is because jobs have increased by 3 million jobs at a mere cost of 266,666 deficit dollars per job that you will pay for some time going forward? Wouldn't we get a job gain of 3 million due to population growth just by Jobama leaving things alone?

We have a winner: Bill Richardson

Followup on odds of which cabinet post gets canned first:

New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson has withdrawn as President-elect Barack Obama's choice for commerce secretary due to a pending investigation into a company that has done business with his state.

So now those dem jackasses can start new rumors about the queen of Ahs, Kate all over again.

We still highly favor the odds of Hillary getting fired soon. Everyone knows she is about to do something really stupid. Its just a matter of time.

Chickunism

Finally, on the lighter side, some chickunism. Chickens and hedgehogs are now legal in Lawrence Kansas. This is Obama's fault.

We are assuming this hedgehog is a soon-to-be registered democrat. Dem party will ensure the hedgehog is registered so they can make the hedgehog the next Kansas attorney general or potential dem candidate for the US Senate.

In addition, I am assuming the name of the hedgehog should be named after our Governor. She reminds me of Sonic, the hedgehog bouncing around from one possible cabinet to another, she is both blue and bristly.

Fueling Obamunism

Get ready. In late January, the dems are going to try to raise the federal fuel tax again; as well as recommend states to do the same to pay for "stimulating" the economy by a process called Abomination.

Expect the same results as 1994. Not only do the dems want to raise the tax, they also want to index it based on inflation. And this is just one tax. Expect a dem controlled Congress to raise many taxes under Obamunism.

The current federal fuel tax is 18.4 cents a gallon. Kansas adds 25 cents. Then, there are the county and local taxes where I reside that add another 7.7 cents via local sales taxes. So the grand total per gallon is 51.1 cents per gallon. And this total is before any zany proposed increase in federal or state fuel taxes are considered.

And that tax total only only includes the direct taxes on fuel excluding taxes charged to merchants. Naturally, merchants pass taxes related to fuel to you in addition, that also adds to the cost of one gallon of gas. And for diesel, its even worse.

Currently, we are consuming 390 millions gallons of gas a day as a nation. This is a crapload of of derived tax revenue benefiting at all levels of government. Since the fuel tax revenue is declining from less consumption, the federal and state governments will be arguing for massive increases in lost revenues from fuel taxes.

So, with the economy in the tank, we are going to be penalized for driving less by a tax that never goes backwards-fuel taxes. A consumption tax. The federal and state governments love high fuel prices because they benefit while you pay. Hence, why gas prices climbed about $4 a gallon this past summer. And what will the price a gallon will be in the summer of 2009 with higher fuel taxes? Don't count on the federal or state politicians to do much about fuel prices. Remember, they benefit-you pay.

What I propose would be best for our nation is the exact opposite-lowering the fuel taxes at both the state and federal level; instead of an Obamanation's first round of "stimulation". (Adding around a trillion to the federal debt). I also believe the higher the price of gas, the tax should be reduced in direct proportion--a sliding scale; if not eliminated.

Obamunism including big government dem controlled Congress has everything backwards. Just like 1994 with a lot of FDR type socialism piled on top. History is replete that you stiffle economic recovery by raising taxes, including fuel taxes. All higher taxes and deficit spending will do, is ensure a lot longer recession.

Just so no to Obamunism including no to raising fuel taxes. As a matter of fact, demand a reduction in federal fuel taxes and any indexing should be an inverse relationship. The higher the price of gas, the lower the federal and state fuel taxes.

Prep-H your JOCO RE Taxes

Notes to self:

I have come to understand the JOCO Tax Appraiser is just like Bernie Madoff running some kind of Nazi-like Ponzi scheme with my real estate tax appraisals every year using a process called comparables.

Basically the county commission including Adolfa Beth Surbaugh decides every year how much can they can get away with. And then merely directs the appraiser to get that much money for their ever-increasing JOCO budget.

So, the county scheme merely looks for any home sale that has increased in value so they can raise my real estate taxes, again. So, I need a strategy to deal with such Ponzi schemes.

First, don’t miss deadlines to file appeals/protests of the ridiculous amount the appraiser assesses on your real estate. Also never argue comparables. This is a trap set up by the county. They want you to argue comparables. Or, tell them you will sell the county your home for the amount of appraisal. They hear this argument about 100% of the time.

Second, argue your home has depreciated because typically it has.

Third, always write tax protest on any checks used to make tax payments.

Fourth, challenge comparables on a constitutional basis, both state and federal.

Fifth, challenge comparables as a violation of the U.S. and Kansas Bill of Rights.

Sixth, challenge comparables on a statutory basis, both state and federal.

Seventh, have the neighbor you like do a real estate appraisal for presentation. They are about as qualified as the JOCO appraisers.

Eighth, start preparing to file a timely lawsuit after exhaustion of rigged state agency appeals.

Ninth, get ready to do the process again next year.

Tenth, move out of JOCO after losing argument that painting my home with Prep-H did not cause any shrinkage to my real estate taxes.
