Another Republican With Problems!

Another politician, just 30 days into his job, is creating fear and unrest on a national level. Republicans and conservatives alike are wondering if it was a grave error to make Michael Steele the Chairman of the Republican National Committee.

"Steele has been M.I.A. on his first month on the job and then he pulled a hand grenade on himself," a GOP strategist, who asked not to be identified for fear of antagonizing party leaders, told FOXNews.com. "Republicans are scratching their heads and wondering is this the person who's supposed to be leading the rebuilding of our party?

"When you completely implode in your first month and you haven't hired anyone, you start to look incompetent," the strategist added.

How can you let the most respected person at the RNC resign? Or was he invited to leave? Cyrus Krohn, RNC finance director just up and quit… for no reason, in a bad economy and no other job waiting!?!?!? What’s wrong with this picture?

A member of the RNC has called for Michael Steele to step down… I happen to agree with her. USA Today

Another letter by email...

Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters, et al:

We have stuck together since the late 1950's, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has run its course. Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right so let's just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way.

Here is a model separation agreement:

Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After that, it should be relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes.

We don't like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU. Since you hate guns and war, we'll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military. You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O'Donnell (You are, however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them).

We'll keep the capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street. You can have your beloved homeless, homeboys, hippies and illegal aliens. We'll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO's and rednecks. We'll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood .

You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we'll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us. You can have the peaceniks and war protesters. When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we'll help provide them security.

We'll keep our Judeo-Christian values.. You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism and Shirley McClain. You can also have the U.N.. but we will no longer be paying the bill.

We'll keep the SUVs, pickup trucks and oversized luxury cars. You can take every Subaru station wagon you can find.

You can give everyone healthcare if you can find any practicing doctors. We'll continue to believe healthcare is a luxury and not a right. We'll keep The Battle Hymn of the Republic and the National Anthem. I'm sure you'll be happy to substitute Imagine, I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing, Kum Ba Ya or We Are the World.

We'll practice trickle down economics and you can give trickle up poverty your best shot. Since it often so offends you, we'll keep our history, our name and our flag.

Would you agree to this? If so, please pass it along to other like minded liberal and conservative patriots and if you do not agree, just hit delete. In the spirit of friendly parting, I'll bet you ANWAR which one of us will need whose help in 15 years..

Sincerely,

John J. Wall
Law Student and an American

P.S. Also, please take Barbara Streisand & Jane Fonda with you.

Letter from taxpayer...

Oldie but goodie...


Dear IRS,

I am sorry to inform you that I will not be able to pay taxes owed April 15, but all is not lost.

I have paid these taxes: accounts receivable tax, building permit tax, CDL tax, cigarette tax, corporate income tax, dog license tax, federal income tax, unemployment tax, gasoline tax, hunting license tax, fishing license tax, waterfowl stamp tax, inheritance tax, inventory tax, liquor tax, luxury tax, Medicare tax, city, school and county property tax (up 33 percent last 4 years), real estate tax, social security tax, road usage tax, toll road tax, state and city sales tax, recreational vehicle tax, state franchise tax, state unemployment tax, telephone federal excise tax, telephone federal state and local surcharge tax, telephone minimum usage surcharge tax, telephone state and local tax, utility tax, vehicle license registration tax, capital gains tax, lease severance tax, oil and gas assessment tax, Colorado property tax, Texas, Colorado, Wyoming, Oklahoma, and New Mexico sales tax, and many more that I can't recall, but I have run out of space and money.

When you do not receive my check April 15, just know that it is an honest mistake. Please treat me the same way you treated Congressmen Charles Rangel, Chris Dodd, Barney Frank, and ex-Congressman Tom Daschle and, of course, your boss, Timothy Geithner : No penalties and no interest.

Ed Barnett
Wichita Falls

P.S. I will make at least a partial payment as soon as I get my stimulus check.

History repeating itself!

How to fix the economy!

"It is true that the root of this crisis is bad mortgage loans, but probably 70% of the real crisis that we face today is caused by mark-to-market accounting in an illiquid market." (Emphasis added) Forbes

Forbes also states:

Suspending Mark-to-Market Only the First Step to Economic Recovery: In the wake of today's vote, suspending mark-to-market is an extremely important first step to take, but it is only a first step.

…look at the impact of the Irish 12% corporate income tax on attracting investment and jobs to Ireland and consider a dramatic cut in the U.S. corporate income tax (the highest in the world when combined with state taxes) as a step toward attracting high-value productive and desirable jobs back to the United States.

…look at the Chinese and Singapore growth patterns and match them by zeroing out the capital gains tax to induce massive flows of private capital to rebuild the market and minimize the need for a taxpayer-funded bailout.

repeal Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which failed to warn of every single bankruptcy but provides a $3-million-a-year accounting and regulatory expense for every small company wishing to go public.’

Another culprit of the economic mess:

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act
and you can't blame this one on the Democrats!
It's a George W. Bush special!


‘A December 21, 2008 Wall St. Journal editorial stated, "The new laws and regulations have neither prevented frauds nor instituted fairness. But they have managed to kill the creation of new public companies in the U.S., cripple the venture capital business, and damage entrepreneurship.Wikipedia

Co-sponsor of the Sarbanes-Oxley act, Rep. Michael Oxley, R-Ohio, even remarked, "Frankly, I would have written it differently. ... Everyone felt like Rome was burning." International Herald Tribune You should read what President Bush told him.

Some pets are more trouble

John was lonely and so he decided life would be more fun if he had a pet. He went to the pet store and told the owner that he wanted to buy an unusual pet. After some discussion he finally bought a centipede, (100 leg bug), which came in a little white box to use for his house. He took the box home, found a good location for the box, and decided he would start off by taking his new pet to the bar for a drink.

So he asked the centipede in the box, 'Would you like to go to Frank's place with me and have a beer?' Silence; there was no answer from his new pet.

This bothered him a bit, waited a few minutes and then asked him again, 'How about going to the bar and having a beer with me?'

Again there was no answer, nothing but silence came from his new friend and pet. So he waited a few minutes more, thinking about the situation. He decided to ask him one more time.

This time putting his face up against the centipede's house and shouting, 'Hey, in there! Would you like to go to Frank's place and have a beer with me?

A little voice came out of the box, 'I heard you the first time! I'm putting on my f@@king shoes!'

Two Ladies Talking in Heaven

1st woman: Hi! Wanda.
2nd woman: Hi! Sylvia. How'd you die?

1st woman: I froze to death
2nd woman: How horrible!

1st woman: It wasn't so bad. After I quit shaking from the cold, I began to get warm & sleepy, and finally died a peaceful death. What about you?
2nd woman: I died of a massive heart attack. I suspected that my husband was cheating, so I came home early to catch him in the act. But instead, I found him all by himself in the den watching TV.

1st woman: So, what happened?
2nd woman: I was so sure there was another woman there somewhere that I started running all over the house looking. I ran up into the attic and searched, and down into the basement. Then I went through every closet and checked under all the beds. I kept this up until I had looked everywhere, and finally I became so exhausted that I just keeled over with a heart attack and died.

1st woman: Too bad you didn't look in the freezer---we'd both still be alive.

impressive in a miserable economy.'


This will change!

Charities would keep the Feds in business

Reality, Business & Recession

How to manage your business in a recession Fortune

"• Reset priorities to face the new reality.
• Keep investing in the core.
• Communicate like crazy, balancing realism and optimism.
• Your customers face new problems, so give them new solutions.
• Don't rush to cut prices.
• Focus on capital - how you're getting it and where you're using it.
• Reevaluate people - and steal some good ones.
• Reexamine compensation - what is it offering incentives for?
• Think twice about offshoring.
• Be smart about mergers and acquisitions."



MAKE SURE AND TAKE NOTE:


Obama Declares War on Investors, Entrepreneurs, Businesses, And More CNBC and it's working, Dow under 7000!

NOW REEVALUATE THE STEPS LISTED
ABOVE AND IMPLEMENT THE FOLLOWING:

• Reset priorities to face the facts of the new reality.
• Stop investing in anything but your survival.
• Communicate the truth to your employees.
• Your customers face new problems, so give them new solutions they can afford.
• Don't rush to cut prices, rush to cut spending.
• Focus on capital - how to get it and how to keep.
• Reevaluate people - let go of the dead weight, get off your butt and do it yourself.
• Reexamine compensation - everyone should make sacrifices.
• Think twice about offshoring, but remember your money is probably safer in another country.
• Be smart about mergers and acquisitions, ask to be paid in Euros.

NO EARMARKS!

They all say the same thing...


'Though President Obama said he did not want earmarks in the recently passed economic stimulus bill, the spending legislation includes a total of 8,750 earmarks totalling $7.7 billion...

Wilson said he's proud to have secured $8 million for the 6th Congressional District. $86,000 is marked for the Dillonvale Senior Center. "Dillonvale Senior Center is a wonderful model, but it is in need of structural improvements and additional equipment," said U.S. Rep. Charlie Wilson, D-Ohio. ' TFCS

So, if you wonder how much clout our President has with Congress... it's still "business as usual".

Doctor's receptionist

There's nothing worse than a doctor's receptionist who insists you tell her what is wrong with you in a room full of other patients. I know most of us have experienced this, and I love the way this old guy handled it:

A 75-year-old man walked into a crowded waiting room and approached the desk.

The receptionist said, "Yes, sir, what are you seeing the doctor for today?"

He replied, "There's something wrong with my dick."

The receptionist became irritated and said, "You shouldn't come into a crowded waiting room and say things like that."

"Why not? You asked me what was wrong, and I told you."

The receptionist replied, "Now you've caused some embarrassment in this room full of people. You should have said there is something wrong with your ear and then discussed the problem further with the doctor in private."

"You shouldn't ask people questions in a room full of strangers if the answer could embarrass anyone," the man said. Then he walked out and waited several minutes before re-entering.

The receptionist smiled smugly and said, "Yes?"

"There's something wrong with my ear."

The receptionist nodded approvingly and smiled, knowing he had taken her advice. "And what is wrong with your ear, sir?"

"I can't piss out of it."

The waiting room erupted in laughter.

Rebuild the Republican Party????

What a crock of sh!t...

How about reform the Republican Party
and hold it's party members accountable
for bedding down with liberals as well
abandoning their conservative constituents.




Why would anyone be proud to be a Republican or Democrat? Both parties are responsible for the state of our union. All they do is fight for power and profit. Backroom thieving dealmakers that could care less about anything but their own popularity, every last one of them.

Brainwashing made easy! I can’t believe how many idiots there are that say they will be a Republican or Democrat “for life”. It doesn’t matter what the party stands for, the party comes first: issues, standards and principles are secondary.

The Democratic Party of today is the Socialist Party of 20 years ago. Don’t take my word for it, read for yourself!

The Republican Party is no better! They can’t claim to be a conservative party and take the middle of the road… Pro-Choice, Pro-Gay marriage, Pro-gun control, Pro-Big Brother “protection”, Pro-massive government spending, Pro-budget deficit, Pro-special interest groups, Pro-earmarks and Anti-border security. They cannot continue to support the RINOs just for the sake of political power. Although I feel safer and more secure with a Republican congress, it does not excuse their unAmerican, self-serving behavior.

Sadly, our President has become a salesman. Selling whatever gets his party power, popularity or votes. If he is successful in his sales pitch, he and/or his party retains power…and don’t kid yourself, power is money.

I'm not a Republican or a Democrat. I am a conservative; a "neocon" if you will. If someone were to classify my political stance, they would call me a Libertarian.
