The Lightbringers’s one month RECAP

1, The American people elect a president with a total of 42 days experience as a U S Senator from the most politically corrupt state in America whose governor is ousted from office. The President’s first official act is to close Gitmo and make sure terrorists civil rights are not violated.
2, The U.S. Congress rushes to confirm an Attorney General, Eric Holder, whose law firm we later find out represents seventeen Gitmo Terrorists.

3, The CIA Boss, Leon Penetta with absolutely no experience, has a daughter Linda we find out, that is a true radical anti-American activist who is a supporter of all the Anti-American regimes in the western hemisphere.

4. We got the most corrupt female in America as Secretary of State; bought and paid for.

5. We got a Tax Cheat for Treasury Secretary who files his own taxes.

6. A Commerce Secretary nominee who withdrew due to corruption charges.

7. A Tax cheat nominee for Chief Performance Officer who withdrew under charges.

8. A Labor Sec’y nominee who withdrew under charges of unethical conduct.

9. A Sec’y HHS nominee who withdrew under charges of cheating on his taxes.

And that’s just the first two weeks. . . but who’s counting.

America is being run by the modern-day Three Stooges~ Barrack, Nancy, and Harry ~ and they are still trying to define stimulus after spend $787B of our money and now coming back for more!

It was interesting to note that The Lightbringer’s latest speeches sound like he is STILL campaigning!

Stimulus is where the government gives a smidgen ($13) of your tax dollars back to you making you feel so good about yourself [stimulated] that you want to run out to Wal-Mart and buy a new Chinese-made HDTV and go home and watch Telemundo!

Here are a few notes on the “stimulus”…

Billions in outright pork and wasteful spending: $300 million for buying cars for federal bureaucrats;$3.7 billion for something called “green research” on military bases; $50 million for the National Endowment for the Arts; $2 billion for “neighborhood stabilization” to radical groups like ACORN;$1.3 billion for Amtrak (of which Reid gets a chunk for his high speed rail from LA to Las Vegas) ; $10 million for”urban canals”(I’m not making this up); etc. including $30M for Pelosi for some mouse in San Francisco…

The Road to Government Run Health Care $1.1 billion for “comparative effectiveness research” that will establish a federal government board to begin rationing health care by having bureaucrats deciding which medical treatments will be appropriate for which Americans.(Page 52 of final conference report)

Overturning the Historic Welfare Reform of 1996 $264 billion for direct welfare payments while overturning the historic welfare reform of 1996. The Pelosi\Reid\Obama bill will reward states with federal welfare funds based on the number of people they put on their welfare rolls – a perverse incentive that will in effect give states “bonuses” for adding more people to welfare rolls AND work requirements are ignored in this legislation…

$53.6 billion for a “state stabilization fund” otherwise known as a slush fund. This massive infusion of our tax dollars is designed to alleviate the need for genuine budget reform and cutting at the state level…

So, when you hear folks saying this Pelosi\Reid\Obama “stimulus” bill was a “compromise” that cut waste to the bone while focusing only on “shovel ready” priorities, call them on it!

They are shovel ready alright… shovelling shit down our throats!!!

  1. and…2.5 Billion for broadband in rural areas (Previously subsidized incumbents get priority)

    …11.5 Billion in loans for rural housing.

    …and 130 million for rural “community facilities” which are either high-tech flush-less commodes in the middle of nowhere, or driving ranges for the blind or some such stupidity. I wonder whose brother gets THAT contract?

    …and the winner is (drum roll) 650 million for COUPONS for DTV converters!

    Tell me again WHY I have to subsidize Junior’s HDTV???

  2. All- Yep, we’re deep and getting deeper!

    Newbius- I saw that, but I was so pissed I didn’t post it! And yeah, check the dems supporters- THEY are the ones getting those contracts, whether or not they can fulfill them is a different story, but you can get they will be siphoning off Millions! sigh…

  3. The biggest budgetary winner in this Pork-Fest looks to be the Office of the Inspector General.

    Every line item for a “worthy policy item” has a rider siphoning additional Millions to the OIG to ensure that the money gets spent “appropriately” (pun intended).

    I wonder if we ord’nerry city’sons can petition the OIG to form a civilian oversight panel consisting of US to watchdog THEM?

    Too bad it will never happen…

  4. You forgot moving the Census Bureau from the Commerce Department to a political staffer to hide any support for ACORN and insulate more vote fraud.

    Add to that the newest HHS nominee who is an unabashed abortion supporter who has travelled around the country on her state’s budget to support Planned Parenthood. That same state governor who, just a couple of weeks ago, told the state employees they wouldn’t get a check next payday and that she was suspending 2008 state income tax refunds.

    Another winner.

  5. It’s the chicago way……..When he got in office i said, “welcome to chicago amerika”…. It is scary as hell to see what he is doing……..

    Has it really only been a month??? It feels like a century

  6. New- I missed that!

    Crucis- True- but that has already been covered! I was trying to stay under a couple of pages…

    CPD- You just HAD to be right didn’t you! 🙁 and yes, just a little over a month!
