Arrogance Unbounded

Washington D.C. is absolutely overflowing with arrogant, self important polpigs, bureaucrats, lobbyists and "journalists". An oath of office or ethics of professional codes of conduct mean nothing to the elite class that would rule the United States of America as their personal fiefdom.

Standing tall amongst the ranks of the arrogant polpigs is Senator Barbara Boxer, Dem-Socialist, CA. As if to confirm her position within the D.C. cesspool, Senator Boxer has weighed in on what has come to known as "climategate".

Briefly for those who have been out of touch for a few weeks, "climategate" refers to aftermath of the release of a large collection of emails and other documents and programs that clearly show that the claims of man-made global warming is an outright fraud. The documents were obtained by persons concerned with getting the truth into the hands of the people. Mainstream media and the entrenched elites label these people as "hackers", the rest of us consider them to be whistleblowers.

[As a sidenote, the data that has been released was requested through the British version of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). The requests were either denied or ignored.]

Rather than investigate the truth of these documents, data and programs, Senator Boxer, an unflappable champion of man-made global warming, believes that the whistleblowers should be investigated not as concerned and frustrated citizens but as criminals.


"You call it 'Climategate'; I call it 'E-mail-theft-gate,'" she said during a committee meeting.


One may safely assume that if this were a case of information being leaked regarding fraud or corruption within a conservative group, Sen. Boxer would be leading the campaign to honor the whistleblower.

The Senator goes on to say:

"We may well have a hearing on this, we may not. We may have a briefing for senators, we may not," Boxer said. "Part of our looking at this will be looking at a criminal activity which could have well been coordinated.

"This is a crime," Boxer said. [read more]


No Senator, the release of data that by all rights should have already been in the public domain is not a crime. The only true crime here is that someone as arrogant and self absorbed as yourself sits in a seat of power. Shame on you and shame on the people of California for electing you in the first place.

Why are U.S. taxpayers left holding the bail-out bill?

Bail-out mania is running rampant in Washington, D.C. Our elected officials, especially the Democrat/socialist party and liberal RINOs do not seem to be able to stop themselves when it comes to giving away billions upon billions upon billions of OUR tax dollars. To these elitist idiots, the will of the American people does not matter.

Throughout this feeding frenzy in the D.C. pig sty, one question, at a minimum, has gone unanswered: "why are American taxpayers the only ones paying for these bailouts of international companies?"

Each of the Big Three auto industry companies has plants in the U.S. as well as plants in Canada and Mexico. If they fail, it will not be just the American plants that shutdown - thousands of Canadian and Mexican workers will also be left without jobs. All of the financial companies being bailed out have extensive foreign operations.

So why is it that only the U.S. taxpayer is being forced to provide billions upon billions upon billions tax dollars to bail out these companies? Why isn't Canada and Mexico joining in with money for the bail-outs?

Granted, the U.S. Congress has had a large part to play in causing the current problems but that still does not mean that we the people of America should be the only ones coughing up hard earned dollars to rescue these firms.

When are the other nations going to join in to save jobs in their own countries?

The answers is simple: the same day hell freezes over.

Who really supported deregulation of Fannie Mae?

Oh my, oh my. The facts regarding the Congressional malfeasance that set the stage for the Bailout Bill continue to come out. This time it is Congressman Barney Frank, Dem/liberal, MA. and his glaring conflict of interest.

WASHINGTON — Unqualified home buyers were not the only ones who benefited from Massachusetts Rep. Barney Frank’s efforts to deregulate Fannie Mae throughout the 1990s.

So did Frank’s partner, a Fannie Mae executive at the forefront of the agency’s push to relax lending restrictions.

Now that Fannie Mae is at the epicenter of a financial meltdown that threatens the U.S. economy, some are raising new questions about Frank's relationship with Herb Moses, who was Fannie’s assistant director for product initiatives. Moses worked at the government-sponsored enterprise from 1991 to 1998, while Frank was on the House Banking Committee, which had jurisdiction over Fannie.

Both Frank and Moses assured the Wall Street Journal in 1992 that they took pains to avoid any conflicts of interest. Critics, however, remain skeptical.

"It’s absolutely a conflict," said Dan Gainor, vice president of the Business & Media Institute. "He was voting on Fannie Mae at a time when he was involved with a Fannie Mae executive. How is that not germane?

"If this had been his ex-wife and he was Republican, I would bet every penny I have - or at least what’s not in the stock market - that this would be considered germane," added Gainor, a T. Boone Pickens Fellow. "But everybody wants to avoid it because he’s gay. It’s the quintessential double standard." [READ MORE]


Most of the east coast based mainstream media (MSM) is jumping through hoops to avoid reporting anything critical of their Democrat/liberal friends in Congress - many of them the very same people who shoved the huge Bailout Bill down the throats of American taxpayers. And of course, the Dems/liberals themselves are blaming especially McCain, all of which is dutifully reported by their puppets in the MSM.

As for the Bailout Bill itself, the original price was estimated at $700 BILLION. With the Senate Sweeteners (pork and earmarks) the cost rises to a minimum of $850 BILLION with a very real possibility of reaching $1.8 TRILLION. [Click here to see the projected cost numbers].

$1.8 TRILLION!

That is $1,800,000,000,000 of OUR money folks.

$1.8 TRILLION!

We have been trying to find somewhere in the over 400 page bill where the polpigs mention how we are supposed to pay for this bailout Bill but alas, no luck so far.

Biden is right about one thing - this is the most important election most of us will ever participate in. This may be our last serious chance to remove the liberals of both parties from public office. Either we do so now or pay for our stupidity later.

It Ain't Over Baby

For those of us who do not worship at the alter of the political messiah, Barack Hussien Obama, it sure must seem like it's all over. Heck, some of the talking heads of mainstream media are already claiming that the race is over [READ].

Well hell, we might as well all just give up, fold the tents, pack it in, and retreat into our hovels with our guns and Bibles and wait for the government to take care of us all.

Or we can get angry and stand and fight back.

Reject the lies of mainstream media - there is a wealth of information documenting just who exactly Obama really is, what he really stands for, who his supporters are, where his money is coming from and what he wants to do to the American Dream. Take the time to do a bit of searching and reading and decide for yourself.

Reject the lies and spin that is oozing out from the D.C. Beltway - these are the same people who have set the stage for the failure of Fannie Mae and others with stupid government mandated lending policies. [READ MORE] Why should we trust them now?

Reject the attacks and lies heaped upon Gov. Palin [READ MORE]. Folks, the pundits, politicians and talking heads attacking Gov. Palin are not just attacking Palin, they are attacking each and every one of the average Americans that live outside of the D.C. Beltway. They look down their noses at any one who is not a part of the incestuous cesspool that exists inside the D.C. Beltway.

America has become a great nation not because of politicians or community organizers or by tax and spend policies. We have become great because of of the people who believe in and live by the principles upon which this nation was formed such as individual freedom, liberty, faith and the equal opportunity to pursue the American dream.

Take this election very seriously folks. Our future and the future of our children will be directly affected by the way we vote in November. We owe it ot future generations to stand up and fight for America, to throw out each any every liberal/socialist in office and to reject the most liberal socialist Presidential candidate in recent memory.

Please take a few minutes to think for yourself. Pray for guidance and the wisdom to see through the slime and lies. Our future depends upon each and every one of us. The question is will we act like whipped puppies or stand up as strong and free Americans?
