Remember when teachers, cops, firemen, government employees, NPR, PBS, and Planned Parenthood blew up the stock market, wiped out most of our 401Ks, took trillions of dollars in taxpayer funded bailouts, spilled oil in the Gulf of Mexico, gave themselves billions of dollars in bonuses, and paid no taxes?

Yeah, me neither.

FJohn Reinke response:

Well, none of that litany is completely innocent. See “We, The Sheeple” allowed the politicians and bureaucrats to make a mess. And, Unions of Gooferment employees is by definition corrupt. (Union “negotiates” with politicians, with whom they give campaign cash, labor, and votes. Translation taxpayers get shafted.) Also, when these various frauds were being perpetrated, what did “We, The Sheeple” do? Nothing! So what’s the issue that will bring the folks to the streets. Then maybe something will change. Vote Ron Paul!

OBAMA ADMIN LISTS ISRAEL AS TERROR SPONSOR
By Dick Morris And Eileen McGann 06.30.2011

Israel? Yes Israel is one of the thirty-six SDCs that “promote, produce, or protect” terrorists, according to the Obama Administration. With splendid equality, they manage to list the world’s biggest victim alongside the globe’s leading perpetrators of terrorism. Israelis coming into America get the same high level of scrutiny that Iranians do!

Subject: Cap The Debt!

Do NOT raise the debt ceiling.

The simplest way to address the problem is to pressure the 535 to cut spending to where no increase is needed. All other attempts to financial discipline Congress have failed. Don’t raise the ceiling. Period! Magically, I bet the 535 will figure out a solution. If not, you ALL should resign, come home, and let someone else try. Bet everyone who wants to be reelected can figure that out!

Dear Mr. Reinke:

Thank you for contacting me to express your concerns regarding the federal government’s debt limit. I appreciate hearing from you on this critical issue and having the opportunity to respond.

The statutory debt limit was reached on May 16, 2011. Since then, the Department of the Treasury has been implementing extraordinary measures to temporarily extend its ability to borrow within the limit and postpone a default on the legal obligations of the United States. These extraordinary measures include redeeming existing Treasury securities held as investments in the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund and suspending state and local government treasury securities which are used by these entities to manage their outstanding debt expenses.

The national debt is the total amount of money borrowed in order to fulfill the requirements imposed by current and past Congresses and Presidents, during periods when both Republicans and Democrats were in control of different branches of government. These are legal obligations, and the responsibility for meeting the Nation’s obligations must be shared by both parties.

Increasing the debt limit would not authorize a single penny of new spending, nor would refusing to increase it reduce the obligations that our Nation has already incurred. Failing to raise the debt limit would force the Treasury to default on the legal obligations of the United States and case far more damage to the economy than the financial crisis of 2008 and 2009.

Treasury Secretary Geithner has said the consequences of a default include a substantial tax increase on all Americans, the devaluation of the U.S. dollar, an increase in borrowing costs, a decline in home values, and the potential loss of American jobs, retirement savings and economic security. Additionally, if the debt limit is not increased, payments on a broad range of benefits and U.S. obligations such as military salaries and veterans, Social Security, Medicare, unemployment and retirement benefits would be discontinued, limited or adversely affected.

I share your desire to see our country headed down a more sustainable fiscal path, and I am committed to making the tough choices that will reduce the gap between our commitments and our resources. I believe that reducing our deficit will require a balanced approach to spending cuts; reforming tax policies, such as closing corporate tax breaks that allow oil companies to avoid paying billions of dollars in taxes; and controlling health care costs. As your federal representative, I take very seriously my responsibility to work with colleagues on both sides of the aisle to enact sound fiscal policy that that invests in our future and protects the economic security our nation’s children.

Again, thank you for taking the time to express your thoughts on this important matter. Rest assured that I will keep your views in mind. I invite you to visit my website (http://menendez.senate.gov) to learn more about how I am standing up for New Jersey families in the United States Senate.

Excuse me.

“Failing to raise the debt limit would force the Treasury to default …”

“barbara streisand”!

Pay the debt service. Then, the troops. Then, the seniors. Figure out a list of priorities, pay those until the money runs out. Then, oh well. Too bad. Soo sad.

Argh!

Fiscal discipline the hard way.

If your daughter wants to major in education at Brown University, she needs to know that the mid-career median pay for people with a degree in education is $54,900, according to PayScale.com — just $2,570 more than one year of tuition, fees, and room and board at Brown. With a starting salary of $35,100, she’ll have to work more than six years just to make back the $220,000 she’s likely to spend on that education, not to mention the income she lost while pursuing her education.

Compare that with a major in chemical engineering at Brown. The starting salary is $64,800 and the midcareer median pay is $108,000. It will take about 3.5 years of work to equal the cost of tuition. By comparison, Penn State’s degree costs $160,000 and thus takes fewer than 2.5 years of work. When you do the math with your child, you both may avoid overspending on a degree.

ROI on college has to be shopped for. My alma mater, Manhattan College (http://manhattan.edu) is in the top 100 on any list I’ve seen. Never seen it higher than #13. As with most stats, the devil is in the details. The children are going to have hard lives. imho. And, also imho, the Gooferment Skrules are not giving them the dikw (i.e., data, information, knowledge, wisdom) or the sppe (i.e., skills, policies, procedures, experiences) to succeed in the future. I bet that most parents have bigger problems on their minds. Unfortunately, if the parents don’t “enrich” their children’s education, then they won’t be happy with the outcome.

Egyptian Shaykh: ‘When I Want A Sex Slave, I Just Go To The Market And Choose The Woman Like And Purchase Her’
Posted by Al Mutarjim Jun 12th 2011 at 8:14 am

*** begin quote ***

Do you understand what I’m saying? Spoils, slaves, and prisoners are only to be taken in war between Muslims and infidels. Muslims in the past conquered, invaded, and took over countries. This is agreed to by all scholars–there is no disagreement on this from any of them, from the smallest to the largest, on the issue of taking spoils and prisoners. The prisoners and spoils are distributed among the fighters, which includes men, women, children, wealth, and so on.

When a slave market is erected, which is a market in which are sold slaves and sex-slaves, which are called in the Qur’an by the name milk al-yamin, “that which your right hands possess” [Qur’an 4:24]. This is a verse from the Qur’an which is still in force, and has not been abrogated. The milk al-yamin are the sex-slaves. You go to the market, look at the sex-slave, and buy her. She becomes like your wife, (but) she doesn’t need a (marriage) contract or a divorce like a free woman, nor does she need a wali. All scholars agree on this point–there is no disagreement from any of them.

One has to wonder how ½ the population of these countries put up with this slavery?

Women need to stand up for their rights.

Gay judge’s same-sex marriage ruling upheld
By LISA LEFF Associated Press

*** begin quote ***

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A federal judge has a message for those trying to salvage California’s gay marriage ban: Sure, the judge who threw out the measure last year is in a long-term relationship with a man, but he could still be fair to them.

Chief U.S. District Court Judge James Ware’s ruling Tuesday rejected arguments that former Chief Judge Vaughn Walker would potentially benefit from declaring the ban unconstitutional.

*** end quote ***

Sure, and you expected “justice” from a Gooferment court.

Then why was the judge’s home life kept secret?

You know that if it had been “out”, it would have been all over the press.

I “don’t have a dog in this fight” because as a little L libertarian I tout that the Goofermentshould have NO role in marriage.

Ann Coulter was on O’Reilly last night blathering about how “marriage has thousands of legal consequences” as if that justifies Gooferment intrusion into marriage.

Circular reasoning!

Gooferment “gives” marriage financial benefits, therefore it must “regulate” marriage.

The only reason we are in this problem is the racist “marriage license” laws in the first place.

Prior to the Welfare / Warfare state, when taxes were low and government didn’t intrude, there was no need for a Gooferment “license”!

Ron Paul said it in the Tuesday night Republican Presidential debate, leave marriage to the Churches and the People.

Unless it’s about control and plunder.

Argh!

If the Gooferment wants, let it treat the “family” as a Subchapter S corporation. Them’s that want to be a Gooferment corporation and get tax benefits of such “incorporation”, let them volunteer.

Of course, that would highlight the Gooferment trying to pick winners and losers by bribing them with taxpayer money.

And why do we allow that and let them pander to the electorate that they are “pro-famiiy”?

“We, The Sheeple”
