OK, Tell Me What Abuse the Obama Administration Has Not Done!

Before I start:  Hi NSA spy gathering this information!

We can go back to the fact that Timothy Geitner doesn't Pay his taxes.  We can go back to the early years of the administration about how opponents to the Obama administration were threatened and abused by the government.  We can go back to the "stimulus" where the Obama administration's forced car dealerships in rural areas to be closed before car makers like Chrysler were bailed out.  It did not matter that the car make did not own said dealerships, it was about punishing the parts of the country that did not vote for the "savior."

In violating the 10th amendment, the Obama administration filed suit against the state of Arizona.  This was ruled to be an unconstitutional act.  Allegedly Obama is a constitutional lawyer, though we have no idea about his real college background.  He made a moratorium against off shore drilling for all oil companies without any approval from Congress. This was ruled unconstitutional by the courts.

Maybe we should ignore the fact that he instructed ICE not to enforce anything against illegal aliens that did not match his ideals, no matter what the law is.

And now we move into the current state of affairs.  It is a fact, that the Obama administration instructed Ambassador Rice (Now National Security Director Rice) to lie to America about what happened in Benghazi.  It is a fact that the IRS targeted conservative groups, that just happened to oppose Obama, for unrealistic scrutinization before being awarded tax-exempt status.  Allegedly he "didn't know anything about it before news reports" despite the fact that the head of the IRS had visited the White House 157 times during his administration.  That is only about 6 times that of the Secretary of State.

Then we learn that Eric Holder himself, (you know the guy that would not investigate the Black Panthers for obvious voter intimidation) had signed off on a "fishing expedition" warrant against a Fox News Employee.  Of course he lied to Congress about it when he testified, but he does not see that as a big deal.  Oh yeah, and he signed off on blanket search warrant agaisnt AP reporters.  Collecting all sorts of data from the AP's phone lines and reporters person phones.  This is because they are trying to catch someone inside who was a whistle blower leaked some information.

Oh yeah, and the NSA scandal.  Where there are a couple of people in Congress saying it is no big deal to spy on millions of Americans without cause.  Seriously, this would be expected of the cold war KGB, but it is ridiculous in a free society.  So far we have only seen the tip of the iceberg, which includes all Verizon users and most on the internet.

So someone please, give a logical argument as to how this is NOT the most abusive administration of the 21st Century!  I would put this up against any country out there including Iran and North Korea.

Whatever you do - Stay safe!

No Taxation Without Representation!

No taxation without representation!  That was a theme that helped give birth to our nation.  However, we are becoming a nation that does this to our taxpayers.  How, you ask?  Well, maybe I should rephrase it to taxation without equal representation.

We are coming to a point in time that there will be more non-taxed citizens than taxed citizens in the US.  Some of you misguided ones will think “Oh yeah!”  The problem is – it leads to the taxed being under-represented.  I am not in favor of a poll tax, but I am in favor of a fair tax.  Now there are combinations of taxes out there that are fair, not just the one known as a “fair tax.”  What is not fair, is to tax some and not all and tax some more than others.  Everyone should pay their fair share.

Our illustrious organizer and chief (he is not a leader, so don’t expect me to call him one) has decided that the people who pay taxes need to be taxed more, to support those who don’t.  Now if you are not a taxpayer, (check your 1040 to see if you are or are not- it is simple) you are probably cheering.  The fact is, taxpayers should get a stronger vote than non-payers, maybe a weighted vote for how much you pay would be fair.  You will kick and scream at such a suggestion, after all the poor disenfranchised should be able to vote.  One half of the US is not poor and disenfranchised.  The reality is, the taxpayers are not fairly represented.

I do not want to change the way people vote, well, except maybe make sure voters are eligible – why liberals oppose this I have no idea.  What I would like to see changed is the tax code.  A real change to either the “fair tax” or even just make everyone pay 13%. No deductions, no tax breaks – 13%.  If that isn’t enough to cover everything adjust it year to year.  Everyone pays their fair share.  I guarantee that we would increase tax revenue significantly.  This won’t fly as politicians cannot pay back favors with loop holes.  I think it is funny that those who want the rich to pay their fair share, all have big corporation buddies like GE and the like that pay no taxes. 

Whatever you do – stay safe!
