Fscking amazing.

Indiana Republican Party Chairman Murray Clark issued the following statement about President Obama’s prime time press conference scheduled for Wednesday evening:

“Tonight, President Obama is taking to the airwaves to try to convince us it’s more important to get his health care legislation done quickly than to get done it right. The fact of the matter is there is not enough time in the next week to ensure that this 1,000 page bill does not increase the cost of healthcare, does not increase taxes on businesses or individuals, does not decrease our quality of care, and does not limit the accessibility or availability of private insurance.”

“I fail to understand how the President, as smart as he is, can convince himself that it’s appropriate to attempt to reform this huge part of our economy inside an arbitrary and dangerously condensed time frame. His original goal was three weeks; it’s not unusual for a family to take longer than that to purchase a house. Yet, despite calls from members of his own party to slow the pace, he continues to push a reckless timetable for his risky health care experiment.”

“Not only has the stimulus not worked and the economy not been rescued, the President continues to promote policies that will create more unemployment in America. The national energy tax that went through this House last month will cause millions of Americans to lose their jobs over the next 10 years, at 2.5 million per year. And we’re debating the health care plan, the government takeover of health care, which according to the Presidents council of economic advisors model will cost five million more Americans their jobs.”

Rep. Russ Carnahan (D-MO) meets a tough crowd.

This video below depicts the real intentions of the liberal left and the Obama administration. Kill the insurance companies, kill more jobs. As of June, 2009 the insurance industry employed 2,2 million, with an average hourly wage of $23.64, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics [link]. How many of these people will lose their jobs if government-run healthcare becomes a reality?

In response to Drudge “outing” the USDA for spending stimulus dollars, they issued a press release. In it, they stated the following:

Response to Drudge Item on Recovery Act Funding
Statement from Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack

[...]

The references to “2 pound frozen ham sliced” are to the sizes of the packaging. Press reports suggesting that the Recovery Act spent $1.191 million to buy “2 pounds of ham” are wrong. In fact, the contract in question purchased 760,000 pounds of ham for $1.191m, at a cost of approximately $1.50 per pound.

Drudge fired back with this headline:

Agriculture Sec. Vilsack: ‘Purchased 760,000 Lbs of ham at cost of approximately $1.50 per pound’…
FOOD LION: $.79 Lb…

Who’s running this country?

So much for the 4th Amendment..

The Senate will take up a floor vote on the Energy Bill as soon as today or tomorrow. A phone call to your Senator is in order, and here’s your motivation.

Within the 300 page amendment added to H.R. 2454 on June 26th is language that will allow the government to audit every aspect of your home and life. The bill states every home owner will receive an energy audit.

H.R. 2454 would also require all homes sales to be conditioned upon an energy audit and a new energy rating assessment and energy labeling program for your home. Homes would be subjected to a new energy rating assessment and energy labeling program that will penalize homeowners for older windows, original fixtures, and dated appliances.

So prepare thyselves for the Obamassiah’s latest foot patrol to pay you an intrusive visit. With ACORN/Census plotting your GPS coordinates, it will be easy for them to find you. They will examine and report on how you live your life directly to RESNET (Residential Energy Services Network).

Fox News is reporting that ABC News is refusing to air opposing ads during ABC’s Obama-fest prime time special next Wednesday.

The prime time special — called “Questions for the President: Prescription for America” — will be a nationally televised event during which Obama will answer questions presented by audience members selected by ABC News. The network has refused to accept advocacy ads during the hourlong show.

Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele accused ABC News and anchor Charles Gibson of making Obama’s case for “nationalized” health care “without any opportunity for opposing views to be aired.

Obama has in effect, hijacked the network. Take that, Fox!

In a fundraising e-mail aimed at raising nearly $100,000 to buy air time for a counterprogram, Steele said the RNC’s request to add its views to the debate during the special was “flatly rejected” by ABC News.

“What are the Democrats and their media allies afraid of? The truth?” he asked in a fundraising letter to supporters. “That is outrageous! And we will not take it!”

[...]

Since the president’s inauguration in January, ABC’s “World News” and “Good Morning America” have aired stories that feature Obama or supporters of his health care plan 55 times compared to 18 appearances by critics of his plan, according to a Business & Media Institute (BMI) analysis released Wednesday.

Does that surprise anyone?

Meanwhile, American’s seem to be souring on Obamanomics.

Listen, we know you’re tired of flipping those burgers, mowing lawns and picking vegetables, so we’re going to give you free vacations and force your employers to pay for it. After all, in France they have to give you thirty days of paid vacation, why should the U.S. be any different?

Rep. Alan Grayson was standing in the middle of Disney World when it hit him: What Americans really need is a week of paid vacation.

So on Thursday, the Florida Democrat will introduce the Paid Vacation Act — legislation that would be the first to make paid vacation time a requirement under federal law.

The bill would require companies with more than 100 employees to offer a week of paid vacation for both full-time and part-time employees after they’ve put in a year on the job. Three years after the effective date of the law, those same companies would be required to provide two weeks of paid vacation, and companies with 50 or more employees would have to provide one week.

The concept here is pretty clear. If you have more employees, you must have more money. If you have more money, we need to take more money and give it to those that don’t, capiche?

From Grayson press release:

TAKE BACK YOUR TIME Executive Director John de Graaf …

“This is a very modest bill,” says de Graaf. “But we support it wholeheartedly and congratulate Congressman Grayson for introducing it and helping open a dialogue about why vacations matter, how deprived Americans are when it comes to paid time off, and why we must act now to improve the situation.” He points out that a poll conducted last year by TAKE BACK YOUR TIME found that half of all Americans took less than one week of vacation last year.

If we’re going to continue our march towards becoming a socialist country, it’s the right thing to do, no?

The return of spring brings the return of yard sales. Now the federal government has moved into governing yard sales and flea markets.

From a new set of guidelines issued (PDF file) by the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

Is the product commonly recognized by consumers as being intended for use by a child 12 years of age or younger?

Is there any packaging, labeling, advertising or other material that might indicate the manufacturer’s intention as to the appropriate age grading of the product?

This handbook will help sellers of used products identify types of potentially hazardous products that could harm children or others. CPSC’s laws and regulations apply to anyone who sells or distributes consumer products. This includes thrift stores, consignment stores, charities, and individuals holding yard sales and flea markets.
