Raise Them Taxes

Ole' Grouch is gonna be growling some tonight!

I'm sick to death of listening to BO say that the "rich" need to pay their fair share! The rich do pay their fair share of taxes. Without the rich folks, the rest of us wouldn't have any jobs, we'd be an agrarian society like that of several generations ago. I'm tired of listening to him pontificate to the rest of us on how we should live our lives.

The liberals have absolutely destroyed our society by their draconian tax and spend policies and their lack of moral foundation. The mass media, the very institution that was supposed to help keep us free, has gotten into bed with the socialist and have killed the very idea of a free America.

This county was founded upon the idea that a person could dream something and then work to attain that dream. There have been countless examples of folks who have dreamed of coming to America; once they've gotten here, they have worked hard and have become successful. The liberals have killed that dream for many millions of America.

I resent the hell out of the liberal attitude that the rich don't pay their "fair share" of taxes. Liberals have had so much control of all the major institutions, schools, media, etc... it's a wonder we can produce anything. We have 20 million illegal Mexicans here, taking our jobs and drawing welfare....an BO want's to raise taxes?! We have millions of folks here who refuse to work and welp one child after another, on the tax-payers dime, and he says we don't pay our fair share?!

I'm not going to go into another list here. Every person in this country could come up with ways that our government could run more efficiently, well, that is every one except the people who live inside the beltway of Washington D.C. Arrogant bastards! I don't want to here about more taxes! I pay $2.50 a gallon to much for gas, my taxes are too high, and I wonder how many more people are going to lose their jobs....and BO want's to raise taxes? Whatever.

Mo' Money

I pray to God on a daily basis that the people of the states that elect "RHINO" Republicans will wake the heck up. We need conservative, real conservative, members of congress and the senate. This wheeling and dealing that the "so-called" Republicans are doing now is making me sick!

What is it the Senator McConnell and Senator McCain can't figure out? It's because of their leadership that we now have a Democrat President and a Democratic controlled senate. The people do not want business as usual! We want the stinking government to not bankrupt us and sell us out to the Red Chinese!

There are so many things the government could do to save money, yet none of them have the intestinal fortitude to do what they know needs to be done. I've made lists for two years on how we could cut the budget; what the heck, I'm just a stupid Oklahoma born hick and I don't know anything. I do know one thing though, I'd be smart enough not to spend more money than I take in. All those Ivy League educated egg-heads up in Washington must be really ignorant because they haven't figured that out yet. The average dunce can figure out that you can't sustain spending more money than you make..but what the heck, they can just print more....right?

What a Country

I don't know for sure whether or not Casey Anthony killed her little girl. Probably she did, but only God and whomever killed the little girl will ever know for sure. The jury decided, for whatever reason, the Casey didn't kill her baby and the rest of us need to learn to live with that decision. If she did kill that little girl, her life will be a living hell until the day she dies; she'll never ever live it down. The only way that her life is not turned upside is if she really didn't kill her, or she doesn't have a conscience. Considering what we know about Ms. Anthony, I doubt seriously she even has a conscience. I'd be frantic if one of my children were missing more than an hour....much less 31 days!

Now, on to other things.

I'm praying that our Rhino Republican leadership doesn't sell us out to BO's plan to reduce the debt. I want the damn government to quit spending money on stuff that doesn't directly effect our country. Giving money to the teaming masses of illegal Mexicans that live within our borders is a criminal act on the part of our government. I'm not a monster, I understand why people want to help these poor Mexicans, but we must not bankrupt our own country in order to give food, medical care, & housing to people who came here against our laws.

We've got to quit building roads, schools, and the myriad of other projects we have going on or we are never ever going to be able to balance out our budget. Every time our government borrows more money we are selling more of our nation to the Red Chinese. We are simply going to have to learn to do without many of the things we are used to having.

What a country we live in. Our poor people live as well as the middle class in the industrialized world. We have millions of welfare recipients who have a better income and lifestyle than a lot of the families who actually work for a living to support these sorry suckers! People who are able bodied and refuse to work ought to have to live in cardboard boxes and beg for a living. Any offspring they might produce ought to be taken from them and given to folks that can support them. I think we ought to ship all those types of folks up to the northern states; they are the ones who keep electing the damn communist to lead us.

Debt Ceiling

We do not need to raise our debt ceiling. Oh my God are our politicians stupid or what? There is no way we can get our debt under control if we keep borrowing more money than we bring in.

It is way past time for there to be a balanced budget amendment put into our constitution! These people that get elected to go to Washington somehow always come up with a "god complex". I see these arrogant "ass-clowns" from these Ivy League schools who think they are oh so much smarter than the rest of us "unwashed idiots" out in the hustings, and it makes me sick to my stomach. These bureaucrats we have been saddled with are nothing more than a bunch of educated idiots...the same kind of idiots who've screwed up our public school system and everything else they've ever touched. The common blue-collar man or woman out in America are smart enough to know that you can't keep spending more than you take in or you will eventually go broke!

I see so much government waste just here in the area I live in. Government buildings we don't have to have and roads that were fine the way they were. We can see the waste every time we watch the news or hear about some big project our government wants done. All the millions of people out of work and the feather-heads up in Washington keep on making it harder and harder for private sector companies to do business. I want to know something. If the hundreds-of-thousands of people who make our government run are so smart, why is our country flat broke? Why is it, if they are so smart, that anything the government gets involved in costs so much dang money, and whatever it is never ever works efficiently? The common man knows the answer, and I guess the powers that be think we are too stupid to figure it out.

The answer lies in the millions of lawyers we have in this country and all the far left interests that are out there. The common man has so much information he's frustrated and therefore tunes out all the mess that comes out of DC. We are so overloaded with information we can't possibly process all of it in a way that makes any sense. The leaders we have don't see things in absolutes...it's all grey and fuzzy. Even a man like myself understands that there is not always a right answer to every problem. However, 99% of the time I believe there is good or evil, right or wrong, or there is a black or white answer or solution. Myself, I generally choose to view things in one or two ways, it's either wrong or it's right, good or evil. Maybe that makes me shallow or a little dense, but life is much simpler that way. What I would give to have our government staffed by folks that had a sense of direction much the same as I do. I realize that we are not always going to agree about everything, but at least you can trust a man who states what he believes and then lives by the code.

Our nannies and dunder-heads up in Washington, for the most part, have no true allegiance to anything except to themselves. They want us all to share in the burden of our massive debt; we are not the ones who made the dang debt to start with. I'd like to know how much money the retirement benefits and staff salaries of our politicians costs the American tax payers each year. Congress has made themselves a real sweetheart deal and get to live like kings their whole lives after serving a term in office. Business rewards them with huge salaried jobs once they leave congress, they are paid because they are good liars and know how to manipulate people and the systems we have in place. Lord have mercy I wish I could get into office so I could live like these people do! I'd be dead in about two weeks, max. I'm way to honest and I wouldn't mind sparring with Obama and his minions of idiots.

Ole' Grouch's Top Ten ways to lower the debt.

1. Pull out all stops to become energy independent. Oil,gas,solar,nuclear,wind, etc...let's use them all!

2. Pull all our troops out of the middle east just as quick as we can load them all up on the ships or planes.

3. Kick out all the illegal aliens. It can be done, we've done it before.

4. Cut off the congressional retirement packages and 3/4 of their staffs.

5. Stop Obama's continual use of Air Force one.

6. Open a hunting season on lawyers.

7. Ban all forms of organized labor.

8. Stop all foreign aid to countries not friendly towards us.

9. Get out of the UN

10. Outlaw the Democrat/socialist/communist party and all it's ideas.

Some of these are said with a little bit of "tongue-in-cheek"....but not much. Give me your top ten list and see if we can solve all our nations problems here on my little blog.

Common Sense

I listen to the news and it makes me crazy. Today, while running on the treadmill, I watched C-Span and they had former Congresswoman Lincoln from the great state of Bill Clinton on their show. She was pontificating on why our economy is so terrible at this time in history. There were many callers into the show, many of whom had far more common sense than this lady does. Of course they did, she's a Democrat...I've not met one yet(Democrat) that has a lot of common sense.

I watched the next-to-the-last Glenn Beck show on Fox News yesterday. He made the point that the main thing that drives the politicians is their ability to get re-elected time and time again. Their agenda has nothing to do with serving the citizens or preserving our way of life. He also made the point that the Democrat Party and the media are now and have been for some time one entity. The major mass media is nothing more than the propaganda ministry of the federal government, it's sickening to see the obvious slant to the left on all the major networks. Thank God for Fox news, at least we get the other side of a story with them on the air.

I've said this a thousand times in many of my posts. The reason we are losing jobs is because of labor unions and lawyers. I don't understand why the American people can't wake up and see what the main problem is here. I think another one of the reasons the Democrats have been so successful is because of the mass of people who depend on government hand-outs for their subsistence. I recon if I were a product of the welfare system I'd vote for Barrack Obama and his minions of ner-do-wells every chance I was allowed. Then there are the Billionaires club who want the socialist in charge so they can have the power to rule the vast majority of America.

If we could have the media our founding fathers had envisioned, we'd not have a lot of the corruption and down-right communist leanings in our government today. I'm going to make another point here and it will surely anger at least half of the American population. Our founding fathers never intended for women to vote, nor folks that weren't land owners. I do not think women are less equal than men, but women are far more likely to vote for someone because of appearance or emotional appeal rather than content of ideology. Folks that don't have a "dog in the hunt" are far more likely to vote for candidates who will give them the most money and who aim to steal from the nasty ole' rich people.

I hear Obama demagogue the Republicans for not raising the debt ceiling. He's claiming that we are going to kill off old people and kids will not get to go to college. The other day, when I was driving through town, I noticed a brand new facility for the social security office in town. I see roads being built and improved that we do not need. I see hordes of illegals using our welfare system and school systems. I see so much waste and abuse, yet the common man out in the country is too damn lazy or stupid to look around and see what's really going on. These folks that are really very conservative go right on ahead and vote another Democrat/communist/socialist into power, and then bemoan the sorry state of affairs in the country today. It's the lazy stupid masses of voters who've allowed our system to sink to such a cesspool and until the people wake up, we're going to get abused more and more by an overbearing central government. We don't need to raise taxes on the rich! We need to quit spending money on things we don't have to have and quit letting folks milk the system for their "daily bread".
