Posted on February 23, 2011 at 11:20pmIf we have “komrade Trumpka” acting as proxy for Secretary Clinton on foreign policy for Egypt, what do we need her for? As a matter of fact, hey Bob Woodward, if you have another book in you, could you get on this please? Like to know why we have two Greyhound busses full of czars in the administration, and our President hasn’t been introduced to all of those in the “line of succession”. I’m not going to have time to read all these books! What are we going to have left to fight over for the 2012 campaign?

Posted on February 23, 2011 at 11:15pmTrumka is arrogant and a flaming egotist. The oldsaying is “give emenough ropeand they’ll hang themselves with it” is going to hold true with this guy. He’s way to comfortable in his skin which is setting him up for a hard fall. The mid term elections were hard proof of how the voting public pushed back fromunchecked aggogance and power. The good thing is these characters like BO,Reid,Pelosi, and Trumka are so punch drunk with power they still haven’t realized they were voted against by the citizens. This will be their demise in 2012. The proof rears it’s head everyday.
Trumka is an idiot outside of collecting union dues (extortion) from his “worker plantations”. It’s going to get nasty before it gets better. Violence from the left is percutating just below the surface.
As I mentioned in an earlier post …Liberal / progressive/ democrat/ are followers by nature and as a whole aren’t capable of original thought orindividual initiative. The unions take advantage of this through intimidation, forced membership, and instilling the feeling of powerlessness “without” someonetolead the way. Some members no of no other life than unionism as its passed through generations. Government unions are the democrats honeypot forfunding. They will protect it to extremes yet to be seen and beyond belief. Issa will be very busy long before it’sover. States will attempt to draft legislation or write into their state constitutions recall language to protect it’s citizens from AWOL representatives.
Enjoy BO and Trumka’s behaviour with a huge smile as they commit political suicide.. Give em all the rope they want and we the people will get what we need as a nation… FREEDOM fromTyranny
Impeachment (obama)
Congressional investigations ( Obamacare, Unions, congressional ethics, elected official felonies,etc)
Recall elections – State reps
Merit based pay
Merit based advancement
Growth of charter schools

I was raised in a strong UAW household and strongdemocratic party loyalists.Lib/progs can smirkall they want because it‘s been said in my familythey will NEVER vote for a party that supports what they’ve witnessed of the democratic party the past 4 years and view GOVERNMENT UNIONS as a relationshipwith a severe conflict of interest. Obama is LOSING the loyalty of the democratic party leaving only the hard left as his base.

Posted on February 23, 2011 at 10:41pmObama’s suspect interaction with certain non-governmental parties while making no contact with his cabinet members is interesting. It’s almost like your dear president is pretending to be president while establishing something else. Whoever dreamed of enacting a coup from the office of president was definitely inspired. The question is will America permit a tyrant to take her down from the highest office of the land…or will they put such overwhelming pressure that the other members of government will be forced to remove the tyrant and punish him for treason.

I wonder how he gets to the White House? private jet, & limo, limo, union built electric car, bicycle? It takes that many trips per week to haul over all the bags of cash from the union dues that are confiscated from the average worker. Unions should not be allowed to make political donations. All of the money collected should be used only for the direct support of the union members themselves. I wonder if how may of the union people could opt out what would they do?

Posted on February 23, 2011 at 11:13pmEDDIE YORK KILLED BY TRUMKAS UNION THUGS BECAUSE HE WASN”T UNION !!!!!
“Meet Eddie York. He was a workingman whose story will never scroll across Obama’s teleprompter. A nonunion contractor who operated heavy equipment, York was shot to death during a strike called by the United Mine Workers 17 years ago. Workmates who tried to come to his rescue were beaten in an ensuing melee. The head of the UMW spearheading the wave of strikes at that time? Richard Trumka. Responding to concerns about violence, he shrugged to the Virginian-Pilot in September 1993: “I’m saying if you strike a match and you put your finger in it, you’re likely to get burned.” Incendiary rhetoric, anyone?
A federal jury convicted one of Trumka’s UMW captains on conspiracy and weapons charges in York’s death. According to the Washington, D.C.-based National Legal and Policy Center, which tracks Big Labor abuse, Trumka’s legal team quickly settled a $27 million wrongful death suit filed by York’s widow just days after a judge admitted evidence in the criminal trial. An investigative report by Reader’s Digest disclosed that Trumka “did not publicly discipline or reprimand a single striker present when York was killed. In fact, all eight were helped out financially by the local union .”

Posted on February 23, 2011 at 11:21pmPastor Snowleapord, I have to challenge you and your congregation. Your every post supports the rich becoming ever richer, and the less fortunate becoming ever poorer. You blame the poor for their situation, and credit the rich for their hard work.
I notice that you, as a Pastor, as a leader of a Church of Christ, as a follower of Christ and a servant of the Lord God, never quote the Bible to support your opinions. Do you not know the Word of God? Do you not base your thoughts on the Word of God? Why are you afraid to quote His Words in support of your opinions Pastor?
I think that is because you can’t find a single word in the Bible, a single word spoken by Jesus to support your opinions that the rich are deserving of disproportionate wealth, that the government of the United States should make every law based on enlarging the pockets of the millionaires and billionaires, and that any organization supporting the working man, the poor, the meek and the helpless is ungodly and deserving of scorn.
Snow, I‘d just ignore you like most on this site if you didn’t proclaim to be a Pastor and follower of Christ. Presumably you’ve read some of the Bible. Please Pastor Snow, bring some of your biblical knowledge to current events and quote some Biblical passages in support of your ideas about Christ’s teachings and how they bear on the current situation in America.

“Putting aside for a moment that you’re one of the many Obama rump-swabs on the blog. It doesn’t take Republicans alone to impeach. If the crimes are high enough, which we all know they are, he’s gone. The dems in the senate will not sacrifice themselves again for Chicago Jesus.
You need to study up on US Constitution 101 by the way.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If we KNOW that the crimes are high enough, why didn’t the Democratic House of the 111th Congress start the impeachment process? Oh, Nooooooooo! Couldn’[t do that to the Halo-in-Charge! The House writes the Articles of Impeachment; the Senate tries the case. As evidenced by their behavior in the 111th Congress, do you REALLY expect a Democrat to vote for Obama’s impeachment? After what they have allowed him to do to this country already? No, it will take a 2/3 majority of Republicans to take the putative president out from behind the Resolute Desk.
The Constitution, Article I, Section 2, Clause 5: The House of Representatives shall chuse their Speaker and other Officers; and shall have the sole Power of Impeachment.
The Constitution, Article 1, Section 3:
The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments. When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside: And no Person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two thirds of the Members present.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That’s what I said — The House impeaches; the Senate tries the charges of impeachment.
YOU need to be reading the Constitution. I KNOW what’s in it! Congress doesn’t.

Before you get so holier than thou to Snow, suppose you find it in the Bible to support YOUR crap?!
You said:
“I think that is because you can’t find a single word in the Bible, a single word spoken by Jesus to support your opinions that the rich are deserving of disproportionate wealth, that the government of the United States should make every law based on enlarging the pockets of the millionaires and billionaires, and that any organization supporting the working man, the poor, the meek and the helpless is ungodly and deserving of scorn.”
Are you aware of how old the Bible is? You sound like that Muslim CAIR guy who told Allen West to find in the Koran where it tells Muslims to kill Americans. We were not even a nation then!
Typically, liberals twist EVERYTHING to fit their agenda.
Just lay off of SnowLeopard. He hasn’t done anything to you — except perhaps pray for you, and that would be a generous deed, considering how snotty you liberals are to conservatives.

Posted on February 23, 2011 at 11:44pmI have just three words for this, New World Order. It is coming here unless the Gov’s can stop it, and the Congress can wake up and slow it down until 2012. When we can stop it. If it must be, let it be not here, not now, and not because of us.

Posted on February 24, 2011 at 2:48amYou think that the Wisconsin protests are just unhappy Wisconsinites? think again.
these clips from ABC World News, article By DEVIN DWYER Feb. 18, 2011
“DNC Chairman Tim Kaine also reportedly spoke with Wisconsin union leaders and state legislators ahead of the protests, the Huffington Post reported, signaling his direct involvement in coordinating the effort.”
and also
“According to news reports, the White House has even unleashed the Democratic National Committee to spread disinformation and confusion in Wisconsin regarding the governor’s courageous actions,” he said. “I urge the president to order the DNC to suspend these tactics. This is not the way you begin an ‘adult conversation’ in America about solutions to the fiscal challenges that are destroying jobs in our country.”
Now, I wonder if a certain Union LEADER of, say, the AFL-CIO, who frequently visits the White House and speaks to a certain individual had anything to do with pushing this kind of thugery???
What do you think?

Posted on February 24, 2011 at 4:54amThank you Mr. Sotero or whatever your name is for the inspiration you have given me over the las few years. You have changed many things in my life that i used to think werent important. I never felt the need to own a firearm or learn what the Second Ammendment was really about. I am proud to say that I now own 3 assault rifles, 3 handguns and a bunch of ammo because of your leadership. I used to put my money in the bank and in a savings account, but thanks to your fiscal proposals and keen eye for business i have abandoned the banks. I now put my money into precious metals that I can keep in a safe place. They have more than tripled in value and the best part is, I dont have to pay a cent in tax for my profits. I have become very self sufficient and dont need alot of the stuff i used to think was important, ie movies, vacations, christmas, birthdays,. So thank you once again!!!!!!

Posted on February 24, 2011 at 7:38am@jzs -my guess is that you watch a lot of msnbc,CNN & are one of those brilliant individuals who think that Jon stewart is a secretly legit newssource. If this is in fact the case, my thought is that youought to branch out & truly look at your opponents argument through unbiased eyes- the assertion that you‘ve made is that the consevative view on this is ’up with the rich& down with thepoor’ please try to realize that view holds no water in reality- our country was founded on individual liberty- and with a firm reliance on the hand of God. The position is not saying let the rich get richer, rather let the rich decide what to do with their wealth- this also holds accountability- if the rich man becomes greedy he will answer toGod for his greed- if his wealth is taken from him by the gov’t he looses the chance to do what is right- the beauty of our founding is that if a poor man should decide he wants to add to society financially, all he need do is try, if someone actively seeks to make more of themselves & seeks to achieve the 4 e‘s inGb’s e4 there‘s nothing they can’t do-

Since, when is theis American, and since he is a lawyer, maybe he should lose his license like bubba bil did after he commited a felon by lying to the FBI and Congress. November 2012 can’t come soon enough and perhaps impeachment will come sooner. That will leave us with –oh no–motor mouth Biden. I guess we could put up with the ‘loveable idiot” for a year. LOL

No 5I-II7 sherlock! You’re such a talking point repeater, you don’t even know what the WI “public sector” union bill is going to accomplish. I makes union participation VOLUNTARY. It’s called right to work. Teachers will have a right to work whether they join the union or not. Stop LYING about the bill. Union bosses know, people will choose NOT to pay dues to an organization that does not reflect their values. Every teacher does not share the same political ideology. You lefties are used to making conservatives pay union dues and giving that money to the Democrat party. That’s Becks point. He MUST pay dues to an organization that he disagrees with. That’s organized crime and you are an 455\/\/I43!

Posted on February 24, 2011 at 5:38pmMe thinks BUSH and Obama love the Banksters
When Hank Paulson agreed to become Treasury Secretary in May of 2006, he found himself in a bit of a pickle. You see, he owned about $500 million in Goldman Sachs stock, from his days as CEO of the firm.
So to avoid any appearance of a conflict of interest, government rules forced Mr. Paulson to sell all that stock. Phew, looks like we dodged a bullet there…
Mr. Paulson’s conflict of interest also brought a very unique benefit: He didn’t have to pay any capital gains taxes on the sale of that stock — zero. The Economist estimated his tax savings to be $200m. That’s not bad compensation for less than 3 years of work at a “public service” gig. He also got a nice salary and generous benefits. For more on the intimate relationship between Goldman and Government, see this post.
The ethics rules that forced Paulson to sell his GS shares were designed so that rich executives aren’t dissuaded from entering public service due to tax issues. But they seem to have the opposite effect. It encourages these guys to move to Washington after they’ve made their fortunes. Getting a government job with conflicted interest turns out to be a fantastic tax dodge. Not to mention all the good you can do while in office (for your buddies, high-five!). Sorry, I’ve been watching too much Borat/Ali-G lately.
As most people know, Paulson went on to orchestrate the largest corporate bailout in history. Some banks failed, some will prosper in a thinned field of competitors. One of the major beneficiaries was the firm he formerly headed, Goldman Sachs. They received $10b in direct aid, plus another $12b indirectly, via the AIG bailout. Goldman argues that even if AIG wasn’t bailed out, they would have collected most of their $12b. They may be correct, but I am skeptical. To be clear, I am not accusing Goldman or anyone else of illegal activity or fraud. But things seem very fishy.
Goldman is also a major government contractor, which means the Treasury Department pays Goldman millions for their expert advice on financial matters. And Edward Liddy, who was appointed by Paulson to head up AIG, is a former director at Goldman. How much more conflicted can the entire situation get? Mr. Liddy was officially only paid a $1 salary for his time at AIG, but he still owned roughly $3 million in Goldman Sachs stock.
