Nancy Pelosi Says 500 Million Americans Will Lose Jobs Each Month

Yes, the Democratic leadership in the U.S. House of Representatives is using scare tactics to get you to support wasting nearly a Trillion Dollars of TAXPAYER MONEY. This time it's Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi who says that 500 million Americans each month will lose their jobs if a "Stimulus" package isn't passed.

If she'd said it only once I might have believed she just slipped but it happened more than once this past week. For those of you that don't know it...the U.S. Census says there are only 305 million people in the U.S. and that's counting Men, Women, and Children. So...apparently some are going to lose their jobs more than once at the same time. Maybe Pelosi counts it twice in some cases like when the boss says someone is fired and that person says "you can't fire me, I quit" that could be two lost jobs. Maybe she thinks Canada and Mexico are states and they're losing every job there too.

Just in case you think she didn't say it or that she's been taken out of context you can check this video:

PETA Protestors In San Antonio - Stupidity On Parade

In their ongoing effort to turn the entire world into a bunch of vegetarians members of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) demonstrated in front of the shrine of the Alamo on Wednesday. Once again they tried to convince people that the production of meat for food is destroying the planet by providing dubious statistics.

According to KSAT TV in San Antonio PETA claimed "The demonstration in front of the Alamo was an effort to encourage (sic) people from eating meat, and used a nearly-nude woman in a portable shower to explain how the water used to prepare one pound of meat is the equivalent to six months of showers."

Well, assuming the PETA folks actually shower and assuming that their statistics are even close to accurate...who cares? What's their point? That cattle drink water? That cattle are washed with water? Are they actually trying to say that once a cow takes a drink that the water somehow becomes undrinkable for humans and can't be used to water plants? Maybe they're saying that water used in meat production is lost in a series of black holes that exist only in meat packing plants?

All water consumed by animals is returned to the ecosystem through urine, water vapor released during respiration, etc. Not one drop of water leaves the planet because a my future steak has a drink. Further, the water contained in meat contributes to hydration of animals farther up the food chain - like me.

Obama and Biden - Sticking Their Noses Into Private Business Affairs?

Thursday President Obama was quoted as saying "It is shameful". What was shameful? He was referring to $18 Billion in bonuses paid to Wall Street executives. He also said "And part of what we're going to need is for the folks on Wall Street who are asking for help to show some restraint, and show some discipline, and show some sense of responsibility." Vice President Biden said "I'd like to throw these guys in the brig." Huh? Why? They're in private business and their only responsibility when it comes to pay and bonuses is to make the owners of their company (stock holders) and the members of the board believe they earned what they got. That's it.

The only reason the government should have anything to say about the issue is if taxpayer money is used for the bonuses. And, the only way that could happen is if the Socialists in Washington, D.C. give money to "bailout" a private company AND don't place restrictions on how the money is used. If they're that stupid, and they are, then they have no right to bitch and moan when execs get board approval for a bonus. If taxpayer money isn't used then it's none of the federal government's damned business but as usual Democrats are engaging in class warfare to distract the public.

Just remember, if the government can tell Wall Street execs how much money they can make or how much their bonus can be...they can tell you too.

Happy New Year For The U.S. Congress

Happy New Year Congress! Why? Well, those of you in Congress just got a $4,700 pay raise that you voted to give yourselves. Even though Congress has an approval rating of just 9% (lower than the President), the economy is in recession, and unemployment is up, you think you're worth more money. You're not worth the money. Members of Congress need to step back and take a look at the pitiful job they're doing and then give the U.S. Taxpayer back every dime that is above the Federal Minimum Wage.

NOTE: Base salary for a U.S. Congressman is $174,000 of YOUR MONEY. Some in Congress make more money due to their position...Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi will now take $223,500 of YOUR MONEY per year.

Who says crime doesn't pay?

Stupid Is As Stupid....

Some things that are done are so stupid that you really can't believe someone with an IQ above room temperature did them. This time it's a group of nine Muslim-Americans. It turns out that these nine muslims were On An Airplane ready to depart on vacation and were talking amongst themselves about where the safest place to sit on the plane was. Huh? Their conversation, which the FBI has stated was completely innocent, was overheard by other passengers who complained. The nine were taken off of the plane and extensively interviewed by the FBI.

Could Anyone have seen this coming? Could the average ten year old child figure out that people that appear to be Arab/Muslim/Middle Eastern talking about safety On An Airplane might receive some official scrutiny? Have these people, all but one of which were born in the U.S., forgotten that a bunch of Arab-Muslim's killed thousands of Americans on September 11th?

They need to get a clue.
