A Look At A Typical Democratic Terrorist

December 21st, 2009 · Democrats, Health Care Reform, Politics & Politicans

[Translate]

December 21, 2009

Ben Nelson

In order to lock up the 60th vote for their health care bill, Majority Leader Harry M. Reid has to succumb to political blackmail and terrorism from one of his own — Democratic Senator Ben Nelson of Nebraska. Taking a lead from Independent Joe Lieberman, Nelson evidently decided to use political terrorism. And why not? It has always worked! But Nelson made Lieberman look like a pansy compared to what the former got.

Democrats Win, Republicans Win And The Health Care Industry Wins – The People Loose

Just a handful of business headlines of the day: “Dow hits 2009 high!” “Health Care Stocks ‘leading the way’!” “With no public option in health care bill, health care stocks at 52-week high!” “Health care stocks rise after Dems drop public option!” “Investors buy into health-care sector as Senate moves on bill!” “Fear subside as Wall Street considers watered-down measure [bold added]!” “Health Care Stocks Booming!” “Investors Warm to Health-Care Overhaul!” “US Stocks Rise; Key Senate Vote Lift Health Care!” “Health-Care Sector Rallies!” “Heath Care Stocks Among Best Performers!”

Why Should Muslims Be Given Special Lawful Consideration?

December 20th, 2009 · Religion

[Translate]

December 20, 2009  

The Federal Bureau of Investigation is a vital arm of our law enforcement. Without them, a lot of high-level crime would go unpunished. They have often been criticized, as I have done occasionally, but for the most part, they do a great service to the country. But there are those who think criminals shouldn’t be fully prosecuted if the FBI received assistance from certain communities in identifying them.

Why Not This Health Care System?

December 19th, 2009 · Big Business, Health Care Industry, Health Care Reform

[Translate]

December 19, 2009

“The irony is that President Obama and a number of legislators have lauded the work of approximately 30 health-care organizations, caring for about 6 percent of the population, that for decades have provided care reliably better than average at lower cost.” Why is this being ignored?

What’s Your Position On Banks Raising Interest Rates To 79.9 Percent?

December 19th, 2009 · Banks & Financial Institutions, Big Business

[Translate]

December 19, 2009  

First Premier Bank has decided to raise the rate on some of their card holders to 79.9 percent. That’s right, that “ain’t” no typing mistake — for all practical matters, it’s 80 percent — up from 9.9. And other banks are looking at doing the  same thing.

The Corporate-Friendly Democratic President

With Friends Like Obama and Congressional Democrats, Big Business Don’t Need Republicans

December 17, 2009  

Escalating two wars; dishing out taxpayer money to Wall Street by the hundreds of billions; rescinding taxes for big business; cowering down to banks and financial institutions; installing Wall Street-friendly people in key positions; pandering to Republican leaders; and now legislating new bills that lines the pockets of the health care industry and fines Americans if they don’t pay the ransom? Correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought the Bush administration had left the building. I couldn’t have been wrong! But it all sure looks the same! I was under the (mis)understanding that a Democratic President occupied the Oval Office — one who promised us “change we can believe in”. What happened to that guy?

Citigroup Finds Friends At The IRS

December 17th, 2009 · Banks & Financial Institutions, Big Business, Democrats, Financial Bailout, Government, Politics & Politicans

[Translate]

Updated December 19, 2009

December 17, 2009

Not only does Citigroup get unfettered access to taxpayer money to line their own pockets, the Internal Revenue Service, with approval from our “Change We Can Believe In” President, has given the company permission to not pay billions in taxes. The Washington Post puts it in the proper context: “The federal government quietly agreed to forgo billions of dollars in potential tax payments from Citigroup” [bold added], meaning yet another government/corporate deal done under the cover of darkness. Unfortunately this is “change” we didn’t expect — same old Bush/Republican policies — take from the poor and give to the rich.

Our Sky-Rocketing National Debt And The Hypocrites

December 16th, 2009 · Democrats, Politics & Politicans, Republicans

December 16, 2009  

HypocriteI suppose that had I heard one — just one — single elected Republican official or just one ordinary die-hard Republican citizen talk about being fiscally responsible during the eight years of President George W. Bush, I could take them as serious minded citizens and worthy of credibility. However, — I can not name one. How many can you name?
