Why bombs were blasting in Boston, Barry Obama was busy bailing out the elected bums in congress. Sadly, I don’t think anything short of a large sink hole opening up and swallowing D.C. will stop these criminals.
Obama Signs Law Gutting Insider Trading Regulations For Congress

Yesterday President Obama signed a law that gutted the reporting requirements originally included in the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act. Before these changes were made the STOCK Act required congressional staffers to disclose their finances to the public to help ensure they were not engaging in corrupt practices.
But on second thought, President Obama and Congress decided that congressional staffers should be able to escape transparency.
President Obama quietly signed legislation Monday that rolled back a provision of the STOCK Act that required high-ranking federal employees to disclose their financial information online.
The White House announced Monday that the president had signed S. 716, which repealed a requirement of the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act requiring the disclosure, which had previously been delayed several times by Congress.
You never heard of this political project to reinstate corruption incentives? Don’t be surprised.
Both chambers of Congress quickly — and near silently — approved the repeal legislation at the end of last week by unanimous consent, just before heading home to their districts.
That’s right. Unanimous consent, no one wanted to put their name down as openly supporting corruption while supporting corruption. And now President Obama has signed the bill guaranteeing a more corrupt Washington.

It is finally time to see if I am actually going win my first election to any office. Then again, I am the Grand Pooh-Bah of my own Hillbilly Beer Bar, but that is a self-appointed stool! I have received a lot of positive feed back from some folks that I would not have expected it from. I have always known that if I just speak honestly, most people will get my message. This is why I don’t understand why candidates who run for state and national seats don’t do the same. They need to stop trying to tailor fit their messages to whatever group they are talking too. I am tired of hearing how this ethnic group, or that race, or why women won’t support a candidate or political party. I know that national politics is a rigged game, and that the vast majority of the folks in power need people to be divided so they can continue to rip off, and enslave the majority of citizens. But you give me some air time with guys like Obama, Reid, or Boxer( I know, she is a she), and I will clean their clocks with just a couple of simple tools I, and many others are blessed with: Common sense and honesty. Stuff like this pisses of people like those I just mentioned.
Anyways, back to MY election tonight. If I do pull this thing off, I will probably be one of a hand-full of true conservatives to be elected to any office anywhere in 2012. But I won’t win because I am conservative or Christian. It will be because I have common sense and I am honest.
He has permitted not just the communists to thrive around the world but the Islamists as well.
Obama has the nerve to say that he would track down the killers of Ambassador Stevens in Libya.
But what has he done? He hasn’t even found them, has he? Instead, he was off to a fundraising event 10 minutes later.
This man has a hard-left agenda.

This is only the beginning.
The Islamists in Iran have attacked our banking infrastructure over the last few days. In fact, if you had trouble withdrawing money from the Bank of America or other banks, it’s because Iran has infiltrated the banks’ computers and is trying to cause havoc in our banking system.
I will keep this short and sweet. We have folks like the Bears head coach; Lovie Smith, calling on blacks to have Obama’s back. ““Our future’s looking bright because I trust the man who will be leading us into the future. And that man is Barack Obama,” Smith says before flipping a football.
“I have the president’s back and it’s left up to us as African-Americans to show that we have his back, also,” the coach says. “Join African Americans for President Obama today.”
So let’s get this straight Sir Lovie: Sounds as though y’all are asking black folks to vote for a guy simply because he is black? Even though he has very little in common with you, or most other average Joe’s.
So I what Barry the Enkindler wants are for whites to “have the “insert white candidates name here” back?
And we all know BTE wants to incite hate through class warfare.
Yup, so much for bringing the country,world, and universe together as one!:)
This needs to be done more often by republicans, and conservatives alike. Stop letting the liberals in the media dictate the conversations. Call these liberal punk-asses out when they make ignorant statements and assumptions. These media liberals are quick to gloss over statements that are made by folks who support “their people.” Rev Wright, Obammy’s mentor, is a prime example. Barry sat in homie’s radical, antisemitic church for 20 plus years, but hey, he never believed what the “Wright was cooking”, but some Santorum supporter named Foster tells a lame joke, and guys like Charlie Rose want him to drop out of the race! Why liberal like Rose don’t get the crap kicked out of them is beyond me. Oh wait, probably did when he was in school!
SANTORUM: Hold on, Charlie. When you quote a bad joke from a supporter of mine that somehow I’m responsible for, that’s “gotcha.”
ROSE: No one’s saying your responsible, Senator. They’re asking how you would characterize it and what you said to him. Not that you were responsible. It’s to understand how you differ from what this person said.
SANTORUM: So now I’m gonna have to respond to when every supporter says something. Look, this is what you guys do. You don’t do this with President Obama. In fact, with President Obama, you went out and defended him from someone he sat in a church for 20 years and defended him with “Oh, he can’t possibly believe what he listened to for 20 years.” This is a double standard, it’s what you’re pulling off, and I’m gonna call you on it.
Imagine how he would be treated if he was the complete opposite (Bizarro) politician. You think all of his past would not be questioned, dug into, and completely investigated by all the media?
Where are the priorities of this administration? Republicans included? While welfare programs, $.50 school lunches, free breakfasts, race- oriented scholarship programs, useless res … Read More
By Thom Paine – the Independent Realist – Time and time again, I hear the same old song and dance about how badly we need illegal aliens in America, simply because they will do the jobs that Americans simply will not do. I am not sure I believe that to be true. What I do know is that many employers rely heavily on illegal’s because they can hire them at or below poverty wages. It’s not that American won’t do the work, it is because they cannot li … Read More
The Associated Press reports that President Obama will be hosting an Iftar dinner tonight to celebrate the Islamic month of Ramadan. (Source) Not that I have a particular problem with Muslims celebrating Ramadan, nor any other of their religious holidays. What I do have a problem with is Obama insisting that he is a Christian, while at the same time acknowledging the validity of the Mohammedan god Allah. As a Christian, I believe the Bible to be … Read More
During the Health Care "debate" last year I joked about the government coming for your twinkies and wanting to regulate what you eat, since it would impact their Health Care costs when the government takes over your Health Care under the guise of "qualified plans". (i.e. if your plan changes and the government doesn't like the change it's no longer "qualified" and thus subject to ObamaCare regulations) So quick but important diversion on an Obam … Read More

Just a working class, empty nesting, life long Democrat disgusted with the DNC, the Democratic Party, the ‘RULZ’ Committee and the power brokers who think we should all fall in line and vote for the selectee. Country before party every time!
