Obama’s idea of slashing spending is to trim $100,000,000 off of his proposed $3,500,000,000,000 budget. Of course this will be parroted about by his underlings as change we can believe in. The stupidity of the masses will be tested with this one. Anyone that brings this up while discussing government spending needs to be punched directly in the throat.
This equals a reduction of about .003 percent of the budget or three hundred thousandths. It is quite literally only a drop in the bucket. A drop of water weighs about a tenth of a gram (0.1 grams). A gallon of water weighs 8.34 pounds. Three hundred thousandths of a gallon of water weighs 113 milligrams, or .113 grams. Please excuse my mixture of metric and imperial measurements.
This is depraved. We have the President claiming he is being fiscally responsible by introducing a budget twice the size of any that have come before it, during the worst recession in decades. Then to lessen the blow, he literally tries to reduce spending by removing one drop of water from this disgustingly bloated bucket.
Unbelievable.
Story
A cut of $100 million in a multitrillion-dollar federal budget likely will be criticized by Obama’s opponents as inadequate.
Ya think?

Paul Begala, a well known Clintonite hack, has an opinion piece on cnn.com today. Let’s take a look at it shall we.
Story
Happy Patriots’ Day. April 15 is the one day a year when our country asks something of us — or at least the vast majority of us.
This piece starts off with a real zinger. Today is the only day we have to pay taxes folks! Don’t pay attention to the fact that the average American has worked every day up until this point, just to pay off his yearly tax debt. He continues with a huge lie. The vast majority of us don’t pay taxes. Around forty percent of the population do not. Forty percent. The rest of us carry the load for them. How American of us!
For those who wear a military uniform, those who serve the rest of us as policemen and firefighters and teachers and other public servants, every day is patriots’ day. They work hard for our country; many risk their lives — and some lose their lives.
But for the rest of us, the civilian majority, our government asks very little. Except for April 15. On this day, our government asks that we pay our fair share of taxes to keep our beloved country strong and safe.
Next he acts as if teachers, and the local mailman are somehow equivalent to soldiers. Every one of the ever expanding mass of government employees are some kind of altruistic bunch of folks, that simply work for the good of the rest of us.
Can’t you just feel the liberal white guilt in this segment? We lowly commoners should feel guilty for earning an actual wage and contributing something productive to society.
You know this segment really offends me. The government does not ask very little. They continually encroach upon my freedom with their nanny state policies, and continue to tax me to death bit by bit. The stupidest part of this entire bit, is the feigned honor toward the military, and the implication that we are simply paying to keep the country safe.
As part of the Clinton administration, this man worked to tear down our military. Now his beloved leader is doing the same thing. Cutting spending for the military, while increasing government handouts. Only the truly stupid would actually buy into this lame attempt to spank us for being upset.
Freedom isn’t free. That’s what the courageous World War II veterans of the American Legion taught me back in Texas Boys State decades ago. That phrase had special meaning for them. Those guys had seen buddies blown apart at Anzio or Guadalcanal.
I grew up in a different era. There was no draft, and while I have friends and family members who joined the military, most of my peers, like me, opted for the security and prosperity of the private sector.
This country has showered me with the blessings of liberty. So what do I owe my country in return? Paying my fair share of taxes, it seems, is the least I can do. Thanks to President Obama and the Democratic Congress, 95 percent of Americans will get a tax cut this year. No one — not even the wealthiest 1 percent — will have to pay higher income taxes until 2011.
Somehow I doubt the guys down at the American Legion fought for this country so shmucks like Begala mortgage the future of our children for generations to come. Mr. Begala did not learn much while in Texas unfortunately. If he had, he would know that we don’t like paying for a bloated federal government. The fact that he and his cronies cut military spending every chance they get, again, makes this a bit disingenuous.
There is no draft now, so I have no idea what that statement was all about. It looks like some kind of backhanded compliment to those who chose to sacrifice and serve in the military.
Finally he praises Obama for his tax cuts. Whooptie-do. He is doing exactly what the democrats excoriated Bush for. Cutting taxes, while not cutting spending. Obama is not only doing that, but he is raising spending to previously unimagined levels, and actually bragging about it like it is a good thing.
So why are a bunch of Fox News clowns and right-wing cranks hosting “tea parties” all over the country? The Boston Tea Party, in case the clods at Fox didn’t know it, protested “taxation without representation.” Note the second word: without. The goofballs tossing tea bags today have representation. They voted in the election; they lost.
That a bunch of overpaid media millionaires would lead a faux-populist revolt is comical. They somehow held their populist instincts in check as George W. Bush and the Republicans cut taxes on the idle rich and put the screws to the working stiffs.
This is where this collectivist douche bag starts to get nasty. I guess this passes for journalism now-a-days. What a shame. Your lowly host has no illusions of being a journalist, so calling this clown a douche bag is nothing to me. He is.
He starts by calling of the everyday people going to the events Fox News clowns and right-wing cranks. This is pretty funny coming from a bureaucrat CNN left-wing crank. Seriously dude, what were you thinking when you wrote that. You not only are a former Clinton official, you work for CNN, and get paid to be a left-wing political wonk.
Then he calls us all clods for not understanding what the original tea party was about. He fails to grasp the concept that the current tea parties are not about the same concept. He is as sharp as mud folks. Begala continues by letting us know that we lost in the election, so we should just sit down and shut up.
So much for dissent being patriotic eh? This whole column is designed to question the patriotism of the people protesting. Of course these fools wailed with indignation when the right supposedly questioned their patriotism over actively rooting for the enemy while we were at war. Yes, socialist hypocrisy knows no bounds.
This has nothing to do with populism Mr. Begala. We are tired of you collectivist jackasses running our country into the mud with your out of control spending. We are fiercely individualist Americans that want none of your overreaching government teat. We simple wish you would leave us the hell alone, and do what the Constitution told you to do. Provide for the common defense, and settle argument between the states.
Begala brings out the tired and roundly disproven notion that Bush cut taxes only on the rich. This is such a stupid lie, that I won’t bother to go over it once again. It is simply false. I guess these idiots think that it will be true if they repeat it often enough.
Bush’s tax policies were a godsend to the Paris Hilton class, but they sent the country on the road to bankruptcy and helped ruin the economy. But now that we the people have decided to set things right, now that we’ve hired Obama to fix the mess conservatives created, now they’re protesting?
This is rich. I would like to see how tax cuts for anyone helped ruin the economy. This is obviously a mentally challenged statement to say the least. Depriving the Treasury and congress of money to play with has no effect, but a positive one, on the economy. Giving people more money of their own to spend is not a drag on the economy. If it is why is Obama continuing with such a disastrous policy.
This hack is so full of crap that he praises Obama for cutting taxes in one paragraph, and then claims that Bush ruined the economy by doing the same thing! Then he states that the people voted to set thing straight by voting for Obama, whom he praised for doing the same thing Bush did before. Wow that circular logic is a bitch.
So he is chiding us for being upset that Obama has mortgaged the future of the country for generations. That is the point of the entire piece. We should be ashamed, and are lowlife America haters, for being upset about it. Well, all I can say in response is simply, screw you Mr. Begala.
We are upset. We are not party hacks such as yourself. We are every day hard working Americans that don’t want you slimy political hacks screwing us for generations.
Give me a break. Instead of tossing tea bags for the cameras, the Fox phonies ought to go to Walter Reed Army Medical Center. There they would find better, braver men who have truly sacrificed for their country. They deserve nothing but the best — not the shameful and shoddy conditions they endured during the Bush administration. iReport.com: Share your thoughts on taxes and tea parties
You want something to protest? How ’bout protesting how little we give back to our veterans? Or how ’bout protesting that the entire budget of the National Cancer Institute (where government researchers battle a disease that will strike half of all men and a third of all women) is 0.03 percent of what we gave the bandits at American International Group alone? Oh, but veterans benefits and cancer research might cost money. It might require — dare I say it? — paying taxes.
If the whiners at Fox News want to advertise their selfishness, they are free to do so. But please don’t dress it up as patriotism. Patriotism is putting your country ahead of yourself — which is the precise opposite of what the tea party plutocrats are doing.
He finishes up with a simply retarded trotting out of veterans and cancer research? That cuts to the bone Mister. Your veiled hatred for the military does not escape us you apparatchik bastard.
Calling Americans selfish for holding our leaders responsible for how they spend OUR money is the height of arrogance. You asshats work for us, not the other way around. Don’t worry though. The people will realize their mistake. You overreaching communists have already gone too far, and you will be punished by the electorate soon. Until that day comes, we will be letting you know exactly what we think about you and your policies. In case you missed it, that is our right, and currently there is not a damn thing you can do about it.
By the way, we have another right that we will use if you try to stop us from exercising this one. You have been warned.

So the racist Congressional Black Caucus took a trip to visit Fidel Castro, and have been falling all over themselves to praise him. Check out the entire video here. Especially great is Congressman Bobby Rush, talking about how humane Fidel is. Then he calls all of those opposed to totalitarian communist regimes children, and claims that the adults are now in charge.
He continued by comparing their visit to Cuba, with Christ’s sacrifice on the cross. As infuriating as that is, he then admits to being a member of the Black Panther Party in the 60s. This of course is the perfect connection. He is an old anti-American communist racist, why would he not love Fidel?
Then he insists that we should engage in commerce with the communist regime right off of our cost, and travel there at will. He also talks about how great it would be to have Raul as a neighbor, and how humble Fidel’s house is, and how it was like visiting an old friend.
Fidel asked them about Dr. King, and this idiot was stupid enough to fall into that trap. Old Fidel must have laughed his butt off after these morons left.
The icing on this idiotic cake is Bobby Rush admitting that Fidel is known in his household as the ultimate survivor. He closes with telling us all that we have been lied to for to long about the dangers of the communist regime in Cuba.
They are really nice guys! No, really, they are!
http://www.c-span.org/Watch/watch.aspx?MediaId=HP-A-17226
The lady before him, wants to rewrite the history books, to show that everyone in Cuba has the right to free speech religion, and everything else we enjoy in this country. She even was dumb enough to say that Fidel said a lot of the same things that Obama says!
These people are either severely stupid, evil propagandists, or both. These are the folks leading our country now people.
Useful idiots, one and all.
Edited to add: The lady after Bobby Rush says the Cubans get it, and we don’t. She then thanks the commies for having confidence in them to be able to effect change, and then she equates communist dictatorships with any other form of government. It is just different that’s all.
I can’t listen to anymore of this crap.
Edit 2: Miriam Marquez has a great article that illustrates why, exaclty, these people are stupid here.

JONATHON PORRITT, one of Gordon Brown’s leading green advisers, is to warn that Britain must drastically reduce its population if it is to build a sustainable society.
Porritt’s call will come at this week’s annual conference of the Optimum Population Trust (OPT), of which he is patron.
The trust will release research suggesting UK population must be cut to 30m if the country wants to feed itself sustainably.
Porritt said: “Population growth, plus economic growth, is putting the world under terrible pressure.
“Each person in Britain has far more impact on the environment than those in developing countries so cutting our population is one way to reduce that impact.”
Population growth is one of the most politically sensitive environmental problems. The issues it raises, including religion, culture and immigration policy, have proved too toxic for most green groups.
However, Porritt is winning scientific backing. Professor Chris Rapley, director of the Science Museum, will use the OPT conference, to be held at the Royal Statistical Society, to warn that population growth could help derail attempts to cut greenhouse gas emissions.
Rapley, who formerly ran the British Antarctic Survey, said humanity was emitting the equivalent of 50 billion tons of CO2 into the atmosphere each year.
“We have to cut this by 80%, and population growth is going to make that much harder,” he said.
Story
Honestly, I almost don’t know where to start with this one. It is all so maddeningly stupid, frightening, and sad at the same time, one is nearly left speechless. We have to look at this horrifying bit of news from several angles.
What happened to England?
As many of us have written, on many occasions, the once great British Empire is beyond dead. The continuous litany of evidence, of the downfall of my ancestral homeland, really is a sad, sad thing. The country that built the civilized world is slowly allowing themselves to be consumed by the very things that Sir Winston warned about so often is his writings. It is as if the average Briton, has lost his will, and is deliberately leading himself to the slaughter.
As Americans we should worry when we see our best ally crumbling from within. Tony Blair, the leftist that at least understood the terrorist threat, is no longer in charge, so that beacon of hope for the resurrection of this once grand country has now left us with the likes of Gordon Brown and his steaming cauldron of ne’er-do-wells. Maybe President Obama should be thanked for giving him a stack of worthless DVDs after all. Strike that. Neither of them grasp the significance of the dangers we face in the world, nor do the grasp the significance and importance of our partnership throughout the years.
So, you get the point. England is no more. We are left with a limp wristed conglomeration of people that have sold their collective souls to the nanny state. The country that once ruled the grandest empire the world has ever known, the country responsible for making the English speaking peoples the most successful in the world, and the country that spawned the greatest nation the world has ever seen, is done. Stick a fork in ‘em folks.
You actually have a government official telling the people that half of them need to be killed basically, in order to save the planet. Someone needs to pipe up and tell this guy, “You first!”.
The Global Warming Cult
The science behind global warming is pretty much done. Although, the truth will not be found in a former Vice President’s PowerPoint presentation any time soon. That is of course assuming that, Dick Cheney doesn’t start showing up at random places with a laptop and projector.
Man made global warming is a myth. Those that perpetuate it are more and more being shown as frauds, as is their evidence. They continue to rely on several things to keep their “movement” going. The fact that it is called a movement should be the first clue that it has nothing to do with actual science. It is a religious movement. A cult, and nothing more.
The cultists come in several flavors.
The first is the common man who believes what he is told. Often this man is an atheist, so science is his God. He cannot come to grips with the idea that his Almighty science could be wrong, or even worse, actively misleading people. This type of cultist will believe no matter what evidence he is shown to the contrary. This group also contains the average citizen that is not invested in science but tends to believe what he sees on television. He is a reasonable type of person, but never researches anything for himself. He will leave that to the experts, and therefore, be part of the mass of sheep, heading for the fart tax factory.
Next we have the rabid environmentalist types. These people are truly dedicated to the cause. They are willing to do whatever it takes to save their beloved Gaea from the evil humans. These people are the political and increasingly military wing of the movement. They are generally Marxist/Leninist communists at heart. They hate the West, and think countries like England and the US need to be punished. All the problems of the world are the fault of the evil white conspirators.
These deranged individuals are the type that come up with this population control lunacy. They view humanity as a virus, and seek to wipe us away to protect the planet. These people occupy the Environment Studies departments of our universities, they are the political hacks that push ridiculous legislation in Washington, and they are getting more and more powerful. Their iron grip on our throats is coming. This story is clear evidence of that. The fact that they have reached the levels they have, is a clear sign, that this isn’t just going to go away. The truth can be damned, we are trying to win a war here folks.
The final cultists are the priests. These are the scientists that deliberately alter data, and the Al Gore’s of the world. Their motives either align with the nuts from above, or there is money in it for them. The scientists motivation may be found in perpetuating the scam. There is big grant money in all sorts of climate change projects. Why risk that by telling the truth?
The Goracles are the worst of the bunch. They are the scummy politicians that have everything to gain. The will be made even more wealthy if draconian legislation is passed. They just happen to own all the machinations that will be required if something like a cap and trade policy is implemented. Never mind the fact that carbon credits have been known to be a complete scam for years. These people are only in the cult for the money and the power to be made by raping the citizenry, and devastating industry.
The Goal?
So what could the goal of the cultists be exactly? These people have many goals. We need to look at the rabid environmentalist as the useful idiots of the priests first. As, we have seen before, the guys pulling the strings, are using these people for their own goals. These goals, as we said are power and money.
Ultimate power and ultimate money. This goes way beyond the Goracle’s carbon credit trading, and corn in your gas tank scams. The true goal is the wiping out of freedom. How do you do this? Well, the Soviets learned that you can’t outspend or outscare free men. You certainly can’t just attack them, as they are industrious, more industrious than you, so that won’t work.
The only thing you can do is make them need you. Really, make it so that there is no other option.
The useful idiots are truly insane as to how this should be accomplished. They have no problem with ruining the global economy, and letting half of the population starve to death. They would like to send us all back a few centuries, before we humans got all uppity, and started improving our lives.
This reasoning is exactly why they are useful idiots. The priests don’t want this. Who wants to rule over a post apocalyptic cesspool of death? Not the priests, that is for damn sure. They see this is a good opportunity to scare the sheep, and grab power, while punishing their enemies all in one swoop.
Now don’t get me wrong here. While the ultimate goal is power and money, and lots of it, these people are ideologues to a certain extent. Even the priests are trained in the ways of blaming western civilization for the problems of the world. They think we all need to be punished, and that they, the elite smart people, should show the rest of us how to behave. If we don’t want to, they WILL make us.
This is a Jewel
Beyond all the comparisons between the cultists and the Soviets. Beyond all the nutty carbon credit, and CAFE standard schemes. Beyond all the crying hippies sitting in the trees to save them.
This idea is the craziest. How does one go about deciding that removing half the population is the solution to all our worries? It really does illustrate quite well, what is wrong with the mind of the leftist. Their Utopian pipe dreams of leading us all to bliss, have gotten more people killed than any other modern movement, have always failed when implemented, and yet, are never ruled a failure, because the idea wasn’t the problem. The problem was obviously that, they weren’t the ones to implement it.
There is no atrocity that is not OK if the ends justify the means. These people have slaughtered millions and millions, and millions of people, all in the name of helping the little guy.
Here we have them actually stating that they think half of the population needs to be wiped out. Obviously the only thing sane people can do is fight them, and kill them if need be. When they start talking about getting rid of a large portion of the population, it is time to start worrying. Whatever you do, don’t report for a work assignment, allow yourself to be separated from your family, or step foot into a cattle car. You won’t come back from wherever you are going.
In the mean time pray to God for guidance, love your family, stockpile food water and ammo, and keep your eyes open.
