China's Smoking

Smokin' away!

It seems that America is under a new Red Scare.  This time, it's about China.

Politicians from Obama to Bohner feel that China is getting ahead of America.  Just from last week's State of the Union address Obama incited this motivation that we need to do big things.

Now to calm those pessimists, China has a smoking problem.  Economist and health experts predict that an estimated of 2 million people will die each year from tobacco-related problems in China.  By 2030, that could rise to 3.5 million per year.

According to the article, there are more than 300 million smokers in China.  That's a lot of wasted productivity.  If each smoker wastes about an hour smoking each day, that would be over 101 billion man-hours lost of productivity each year.

Sorry China, but that's a lot of wasted time.

Comments on Obama's Limo

Obama's Presidential Limo

When Obama showed up for the NATO summit hosted by the Portuguese, comments have been made about his limo.

These comments highlighted by Yahoo! News.  The hosts were offended by the diesel powered beast of a car while just about everyone else was using an electric, zero-emissions cars to get to their meetings.

This seems to be a comment from an environmental air-head.  Those people who made and support those comments definitely don't have people hunting for them.  Obama does.  There are psychopaths that would threaten to do such a thing.  Having this armored tank disguised as a limo for the President of the United States makes sure that they wont get a chance.

Now if you think that a electric powered car could do the same, you are wrong.  With the current technology, just the batteries of these cars add nearly tons to the total.  If you add all of the same features on to of that, the armor, the bullet proof glass, the tires that can run while flat, the performance of this limo will decline significantly.  It will be the slowest thing on the road.  In an emergency, it needs to be fast and maneuverable.    Being diesel, it can be.

If this is used as political propaganda against the Obama in the form of not being environmentally sound, they are clueless about the current technologies available and the safety of the President.

Start of a New Day

Well, it isn't really.



I wish it was Justin Bieber, because seriously, who likes him?

O, the irony!

It is quite a thing to sleep and ponder about.

So back a few years back, a junior senator voted against sending more troops in Iraq to participate in a strategic military operation.

Now, that person is in the White House making decisions; the President Barrack Obama.

However, that isn't the jem.

It is that this guy, is now shutting the door in Iraq that started to close when Pres. Bush was in office. O and then he is attempting his own little surge in Afghanistan to combat the Taliban.

O, the irony!

Hill and Bill is back in the White House!

Sources say that Obama will be appointing Hillary Clinton to Secretary of State on Monday.

This means that Bill can get raunchy with Michelle instead of that ugly one back a couple of years ago.

Washington Insiders

Apparently, Obama has elected more people with Washington Experience than Bush in the economic team. This is before every spot is filled.

This is very surprising to have run on promises to not run Washington as usual.

Well, that's another broken promise for the count!

Obama, Obama, Obama

Everytime that I get a chance to check the news, online, on the tely, or writen in the newspapers,
"Obama has a economic plan!"
"Massive Economic Recovery Eyed"
"Obama will 'do what's necessary' to fix economy"

All I got to say is,
Good luck fulfilling those expectations! I really do hope that Obama does get us out as soon as possible and safely, but I do not see it logically happening under his policies.

His policies of protectionism, isolationism, welfare, tax cuts for the people that don't pay taxes, and others, will not solve this crisis.

Lowering the Bar

As you might have been hearing for a couple of months or two, Obama and Biden are wanting to raise the taxes of the people making $250,000 and redistribute it to the people below it.

News of Biden and Obama have lowered that mark down one hundred thousand to $150,000. That puts just about every single middle class American and all of the "Joe the Plumbers" also known as small business owners. That is so slimy of them to do that.

Virtually, anyone with a college degree will have to pay higher tax. This is scandalous! Something that only included a couple million will now encumbers nearly everyone that is not 'poor.'

McHealth vs O'care

Health care comparison,

They are statements about Obama's plan with make if more affordable, but McCain's will make it even more affordable by having the insurance companies compete over state lines.

This cool interactive shows, that well, McCains plan is cheaper for more of the poor, middle, and rich classes than Obama's.

The Bailout Brain Rant

This one is my personal thoughts,
I am not siding with the way that McCain or Obama voted on the bailout. I thought that it was going to work better, faster, but now, their are some more squeaky broken wheels (squeaky wheel gets the WD40).

This economic downturn is disastrous and we might not excel as fast in the next couple of years as we have done in the past three decades. I understand the some of the reasons why the bailout passed, except, a small business that is already up and running does not have to deal with loans very often. It would be the ones that are to be made in the next year or two. Without the wealthy VC, there would be a shut down of growth. That is why you have to not increase, but decrease the capital gains tax and corporate taxes. America has the second highest corporate taxes. Why should their be tax cuts for companies who do not decide to ship jobs overseas or ship them back? They are doing the smart move. The chances are there are lower taxes to where ever they decide to go. How about you just cut the damn tax? Then more companies will move back and others companies will come.
If the government did not get the initial billions of dollars that it is trying to divide, then we would be better off. A significant amount of people would be able to pay up on their loans. Now, it is too late. If you give back the money, they are just going to think of it as a gift and spend it as a gift, on non-necessities like cigarettes, a boat, gifts for christmas. Apparently, there are a tons of other people who could have used the help earlier, when they did default on their mortgages, credit cards, and other loans.

3 Steps for a better Economy!

According to this article, Dr. Merrill Matthews claims that there are three ingredents to make this economic situation a whole lot better.

Step 1 - Free Trade
McCain for it.
Obama against it.

Step 2 - Low and simple taxes
McCain for it.
Obama picking and choosing tax cuts.

Step 3 - Reduce government spending.
McCain for it.
Obama against it.

I hope you see which one will be better in the economy.

McCain Palin in Family Guy

Seeing the article, From Foxnews, I was offended.

I believe there is almost nothing a like about Hitler and McCain.

If there is a comparison to be made between Nazi Germany and a presidential candidate, it would be Obama. Obama is the great awing speaker, just like Hitler was. He was the one that tried to install ideas of change and fix the problems of society.

It's a bad idea for doing anything like this and I think that nothing like this should be made or reproduced, especially in a popular cartoon.

This reminds of that bomb scare in downtown Boston because there was several electronic signs scattered throughout the town. It was a promo gone bad.

This current accident is not to get popularity but to make a statement. They are already getting the audience of people who are into Political satire. Why would you go on a limb like that.

Obama a hypocrite?

An article from foxnews is about Obama not taking public financing.

Obama is the first candadite to not take public financing since Watergate. Obama raised $602 million since the start of the campaign.

That is ridiculous to have control over that much money, and be a socialist. How about he gives that money to the poor guy, and the middle class and the rich can keep there own money. The "spreading of wealth" concepts that he totally exposed to Joe the Plumber, shows that he is completely on the left. Anyone that knows history or economics knows that socialism or spreading of wealth does not work, nor has it ever worked. Why should it work now? This idea is just like welfare and we already know that welfare does not work.

To get back on the point, this massive amount of money will be the roots for corruption. Always was and always will.

AT's Discussing Points

A friend of mine (AT) created and states this list of points:

1) Obama associates with previously known people who have connections to terrorist groups (aka guilty by association)
2) He lies about his relations with groups such as ACORN
3) He wants to create jobs, but for who?--- the government
4) He wants to tax the "middle class" and working people and distribute this money into federal programs (why should the people who don't work hard and just feed off others get the successful people's money?)
5) He is a one world/government guy (Too bad this is AMERICA)
6) He isn't even American and is actually Arabic so all of the black people who vote for him because he's "black" and whites who don't want to feel racist shouldn't have to anymore

Sen. Government

The slip of "Sen. Government" instead of "Sen. Obama" by Sen. McCain was well camouflaged in the debate last night.

Why would you Penalize success?

According to Obama when addressing Joe the plumber, he would take his wealth and redistribute it.

Obama is proposing that government should penalize success and reward failure. This would ruin America and the American Dream! There would be no reason why to be successful. It would make America socialist!

Did McCain Seal the Deal?

No.

Did he lick and prime the deal?

O yes he did.

He brought out good arguments about Obama's tax plans, education plans, and other plans. He brought out "guilt by judgement."

He came out punching and defended that he had repudiated the republicans behavior, but Sen. Obama has not done the same for his crazy supporters. He did not for those he falsied his health, his tax and healthcare plans, and others calling him racist!
