Brian Riedl published a report for the Heritage Foundation entitled: New CBO Budget Baseline Shows that Soaring Spending—Not Falling Revenues—Risks Drowning America in Debt. The title might just as well have been “The President and Congress are Killing America.” See an abstract from the report below and click the link to read the […]

The Sun God has decreed that NASA’s primary mission should be to make Muslims feel good about their contributions (900 or so years ago) to science and engineering. See below an interview with Charles Bolden, recently appointed to head up NASA.

Routinely ridiculing President Obama and his administration has become so easy that it’s boring. […]

Yet another spam email arrived today from the white house, this time from Carol Browner, the Sun God’s Energy Czarina. And right away, Mozilla tagged it as a SCAM, which of course it is.

This is another of those “campaign promise” style missives that this regime regularly uses to try and take credit for something, […]

As mentioned before in this blog, hidden in the health care legislation is a new IRS requirement that will result in a massive paperwork increase for every business in the country. It will cost thousands of dollars and countless hours to comply with this new requirement to report 1099’s for all transactions over $600. […]

In an earlier post I spoke out about the paperwork burden that Obamacare was certain to impose on all of us. Here’s another specific example: Health care law’s massive, hidden tax change Under this provision hidden in the law’s 2,400 pages all purchase transactions of $600 or more in goods or services would […]

Repeal it. Kill It.  This MONSTER will eat us alive!

Our congress has done us a dirty deed by lies, deceit, bribery and unbelievable arrogance. The health care bill just passed is another step toward socialism and tyranny, plain and simple. This is an example of African pimp style absence of spending restraint — roll […]

Is it believable?
There is speculation that the Pelosi Democrats are planning to use an arcane maneuver called the Slaughter Rule to somehow pass the Senate healthcare bill without even voting on it. This is such a bizarre scenario that I can’t accept it as realistic. But should it happen the country […]

You’ve probably seen one or more of the U.S. Government’s 2010 Census promotion ads. You’re supposed to believe that by filling out the census form you’ll be guaranteeing yourself goodies from the government. Now I suppose that to the socialists in congress and the White House this all makes sense. But then […]

In my minds eye I visualize the current before Christmas scenery. No white Christmas and carols there. No jingle bells. I visualize a general walking across a devastated, shredded battlefield, among the dead bodies and broken machines of war, still smoking and burning. The general could be of either army, the victor […]

An article in Save Capitalism blog exposes the dirty data manipulation engaged in by GHCN (Global Historical Climatology Network, a part of NOAA - National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) as it pertains to temperature measurement records for Antarctica. The artcle’s author, an amateur, shows how the actual data has been adjusted to produce a […]

Highly recommended See American Thinker who lays out a step by step description of how CRU fudged the data making up the basis for the Copenhagen wrecking ball now going on.
His conclusion is also worth a thought or two:

After all, the stakes are enormous: perhaps trillions of dollars and unquestionably every American’s personal liberties. Tomorrow, […]

The chairman of the U.N. IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) is Rajendra Pachauri, an Indian guru shaman scientist. But holy cow, whatever he is, he’s a nut case.

(Like Al Gore and Our Sun God, Pachuari is a Nobel Prize (2007) recipient. Picture above)
First, he says that whatever the fudging, lying, hiding, and […]

What, exactly, is cap & trade? I’ll try to illustrate it here by example. Let’s say the government decides that the citizens are getting too fat. They declare that the ideal weight is (170 lbs. men, 110 lbs. women = average 140 lbs.) So it announces a cap and trade program […]

We now read that our Sun God President will promise at the upcoming Copenhagen climate conference big reductions in greenhouse gas (CO2) emissions from the U.S. What makes him think he can make and keep this promise? Presumably he’s basing it on the Boxer/Kerry bill making its way though the House of Representatives. […]

High-Income Tax May Be Needed for Afghan War Cost, Levin Says Like I predicted a few articles back, here comes congress a-taxin. Can a VAT be far behind?

ABC News reported on Monday that the recovery.gov web site, which is supposed to track all the stimulus spending and the jobs “saved or created” is so screwed up that the data is garbage. (more here) The site reports spending and jobs saved for numerous congressional districts that don’t even exist. Not that […]

The new PelosiCare bill contains provisions for 118 new bureaucracies — and Pelosi says this won’t increase the federal deficit? See especially sops to politically correct types and Acorn funding salted throughout this list.

Once again, Coyote Blog the prolific and intellectual powerhouse has brought to my attention a great video source to argue that Global Warming is a political issue, not a scientific one. Whatever the scientists want to argue about (or not argue about) isn’t the issue. Global climate has become a political movement led […]

A CBS network investigation says government estimates of swine flu are vastly exaggerated From the article:

If you’ve been diagnosed “probable” or “presumed” 2009 H1N1 or “swine flu” in recent months, you may be surprised to know this: odds are you didn’t have H1N1 flu.
In fact, you probably didn’t have flu at all. […]

After the mugging of the vaccine producing pharmaceutical industry by Hillary Clinton in 1993 the federal government became the dominant purchaser and price setter for vaccines in the U.S. The result of this was that major pharmaceutical companies simply abandoned the business of vaccine research and production, leaving it largely to overseas producers.
Now even […]

Is Obama Poised to Cede US Sovereignty?

Although Lord Monckton skips over the fact that U.S. treaties have to be ratified by the full Senate, many treaties have been signed by the presidents and not ratified, but still cause great mischief.
From the Harvard Law Journal:

Under contemporary treaty practice, a nation’s signature of a treaty, […]

Should the congress be allowed to pass laws that nobody can read or understand? See this: Finance Committee Democrat Won’t Read Text of Health Bill, Says Anyone Who Claims They’ll Understand It ‘Is Trying to Pull the Wool Over Our Eyes’

I don’t think so. Do you?

After taking notes during the president’s much-praised health care address to a joint session of congress, I put them aside for a while. Many others reacted, so my comments would probably just add to the noise. However, after a few days of reflection, some generalizations pop out.
Obama’s vision of the health bill would […]

Quoting from a recent post in Zero Hedge: This Week in Mayhem (08/24/2009) “The Federal Reserve has apparently been engaged in OTC derivatives trading — beginning in March 2009.” and “At this time, it is unclear whether these $1.4 trillion in new Federal Reserve OTC derivatives are related to the unusual market activity many of […]

Click the video below if you think Canadians have a good healthcare system.

It’s not about health. It’s not about the House Bill or the Senate Bill. It’s about Freedom. Government has no business at all in health care. NONE!

Kimberly Strassel writes in the Wall Street Journal about the worldwide shift in sentiment about climate change (aka Global Warming). See: Climate Change Climate Change
The climate alarmists and greens claims of unanimity and settled science are beginning to be recognized for what they are, a thin disguise for sloppy science. And a growing […]

Thanks to Michelle Malkin and the Competitive Enterprise Institute we have another example of a government agency coverup — doing harm to the country while protecting the agency’s backside.
In a nutshell, Competitive Enterprise Institute has obtained Environmental Protection Agency emails wherein a scientists attempts to introduce global warming research results contrary to Al Gore/Obama administration […]

The whitehouse has me on their mailing list. In the past month I’ve received three slick emails from “Barack Obama,” and “The First Lady” from “whitehouse.gov.” Each email contained some fluff such as a promotion for “United We Serve” and a advice for fathers on Fathers Day. Each had embedded a video — […]

See this from Zero Hedge: “incredibly Shrinking Market Liquidity”.

A very interesting data point, also provided by the NYSE, implicates none other than administration darling Goldman Sachs in yet another potentially troubling development. The chart below demonstrates the program trading broken down by the top 15 most active NYSE member firms. I bring your attention to […]

Here’s the conclusion of another well researched article charging the PPT (Plunge Protection Team) with criminal intervention in the current stock market.

Treasuries are therefore the engine which drives this fraudulent scheme, a scheme that is completely illegal because the authority granted in Reagan’s Executive Order creating the PPT is exceeded beyond all belief in what […]
