TEA to be held online, this time I can avoid stinky liberal counter-protesters

I was lucky enough to not be busy on the day of April 15th. I was able to go to 2 TEA party events. The first was in Geneva, IL off of Route 31.



Most of the speakers were non-politicians, and most talk was getting back to the constitution. Some in the media have tried to paint this as some anti-Obama campaign. To be honestly, our President is not that import to get these kinds of people to come out and do anything for or against him.



The 2nd was in Oswego, IL on a bridge with a very large walkway. I have some interesting video of 2 liberals trying to protest the protest. They were treated with respect, but were changed on the facts. They also seemed to want to dispute the TEA party theme... They didn't get the FAR RIGHT WING memo telling them that TEA stands for:

Taxed
Enough
Already
 
Now Gov. Sanford of South Carolina and Gov. Perry of Texas are hosting an online TEA party.

I will be attending this event on May14th... sign up here

More on the TEA parties later.

AHHH ZOMBIES!!!

The Texas DOT confirmed that a portable road sign had been hacked into near the University of Texas on Jan 19. He told Foxnews.com, "It's sort of amusing, but not at all helpful."



I think it's very useful considering all the zombies that hang out at universities across the US.

In related news.

Why Bailouts Are Bad

I wrote this for some local papers and it got cut down. This is the full version that was a pre-election version.

Why bailouts are bad.

America runs on the fuel capitalism and to water down this fuel makes the engine of our economy rust, corrode, and eventually fail completely. Anyone hear from PAN-AM lately; how about E.F. Hutton? I thought when they talked people listened. Where did they go? Did we actually let these companies fail? We sure did and that’s a good thing. People who lost jobs, had to find new ones and other companies that were better run filled the void if a void was left.

If you run up big debts, stop paying your bills, and/or borrow more than you can pay back, does the government pay you to keep doing these things? NO. You lose it all and file bankruptcy. Why one rule for Main Street and another for Wall Street? The reason is a slow and creeping socialism.
Socialism sets a floor and a ceiling for its citizens and businesses. You can only achieve so much, because at some point the government takes so much that it is no longer beneficial to work harder for so little gain. At the same time, you can only fall so far because a “safety net” is setup by the government, paid for by taxpayers, to “save you” from your own failure.

Why not save people and businesses from poor choices and bad acts? Because actions have consequences and if we “save the people from themselves” they will never learn from their mistakes. If your parents never let you fall, you may never have learned how not to fall. If we bailout all bad businesses then we never make room for better run businesses. We don’t allow people to learn from failure and we repeat the same mistakes. All of us, everyone one of you reading this have learned from failure. Not one baby is born with perfect speech, walking, talking, and reading.

The faster our nation understands this, the better off we are. I’m an American first, a conservative second and I want what’s best for America. With that in mind, President Bush was wrong, Sen. McCain was wrong, Sen. Dick Durbin was wrong, Sen. Barack Obama was wrong and Bill Foster was wrong. All of these people were wrong to vote for or support the $700 billion bailout.

AIG is a case study in why we should let these companies fail. After an $85 billion bailout, the fine executives at AIG went on a spa retreat for a whopping $430,000. Do you think AIG learned anything? I think they learned if they stay large enough the taxpayers will bail them out. If the services of AIG were still needed a competitor would either swallow them up OR another company could wait for them to fail and service the clients AIG would leave behind. Either way, the taxpayers didn't need to foot the bill.

Bill Foster voted for the $700 billion bailout twice, the second time the price tag was closer to $850 billion after it came out of the Senate. He talks about fiscal responsibility, and then gives the bad actors on Wall Street a way out of any consequences for their poor choices and poor management. I heard someone say that the government could have given $45,000 dollars to every American for what we gave away to the Wall Street titans in the last 2 months.

So let’s make our representatives pay the consequences of their votes FOR the bad actors and AGAINST hard working taxpayers of the 14th district.


I feel like this will be relevant in the days, months and at least 2 years to come.

When Obama said, "Change has come to America" I now see where the "Change" is coming from.

Colin Dumps on GOP

Republican In Name Only, Colin Powell once again proves to be spineless. Back in 2000 and 1996 I remember calls for Colin to take a stand and run... Did he? Of course not. So you now have the situation of the guy who sold the war in Iraq to the U.N. endorsing the then state senator that couldn't have stopped the war even if he really wanted to.

One of his reasons for endorsing Senator Government (Obama) was, "I would have difficulty with two more conservative appointments to the Supreme Court, but that's what we'd be looking at in a McCain administration."Curious coming from a so called Republican. At some point could the Republican party throw his ass out? He is the type of "moderate" this world does not need. What? He served his country?



Carter served his country too, that doesn't make you infallible. I'm NOT saying Colin is Carter, but his endorsement means nothing to me. Actually, I would rather he endorse Senator Government, because if he endorsed McCain I may not vote for him. I have never trusted Powell, NEVER. Seriously, would anyway say anything if he had endorsed McCain? Would it even make the news? I hope Colin enjoys his tax raise, because it's coming.

If the nutroots on the left believe Bush lied about WMD in Iraq, what do they think of Big Colin?

Joe "The Plumber" trips up Obama "The Socialist"

The party for the "little guy" is running over a plumber that dare question Barack Obama's tax plan. In 1 week we know more about Joe "The Plumber" than we do about most of Obama's past associations. What does that tell you? Our mainstream media has lost it's collective mind. Our media has taken such a stand FOR Obama, that they need to destroy everyone who won't go along with Obama's plan for change.

How long did we hear that we needed to talk about the issues and not Ayers, Rev. Wright, and the rest? Now some guy asks Obama's about his tax plan and he must be stopped at all costs. Imagine your rights under Obama and the complicit media.


PMSNBC tripping over themselves (Below) to rip apart the plumber, but they don't mention Obama's response of " Spread the Wealth." Didn't Marx say something similar?

Ignore the message and kill the messenger... I guess they think negative campaigning only works against Joe "The Plumber."
