Protection Bureau, Protecting What - Not the Consumers

Obama, with a straight face, criticized efforts in Congress, led by Republicans, to roll back some of the financial rules approved last year. He even tried to defend the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau created by that legislation, against GOP efforts to weaken it.

Obama, again, with a straight face, said  some banks are now following the  new regulations and are charging consumers more. (Thank you Mr. President) " Does anybody up there ever think these things through before they vote on them? Or was this another of the famous,"pass it so we can see what's in it" bills. " It was a reference to a fee some banks are imposing  on the consumers because of the  restrictions on debit card fees banks used to charge retailers  but now charge consumers, thanks to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

"It's not necessarily fair to consumers," he said.( I guess rules are rules and since nobody had the foresight to  see what was coming the consumer will get soaked again) Thank you, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Now what is consumer Protection all about?

Obama also said the European Union has to act fast to deal with its debt crisis, but he said he is confident that European leaders are ready to take the necessary steps. The United States leaders screwed it up royally.  Thank you, Mr. President and the Consumer Protection Bureau. Will someone tell me who  passed a bill setting up this SO CALLED Consumer Protection Financial Bureau? 

                                                 THE PRESIDENT AND HIS PARTY DID WHAT?

LETS RECAP, THE DEMS  CAME UP WITH AND THE PRESIDENT SIGNED THE LEGISLATION THAT FORMED THIS PROTECTION ... BUREAU THAT IS NOW COSTING THE CONSUMERS MORE MONEY. ( LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT)THE PRESIDENT IS UPSET AND IS TELLING THE REPS. THE PEOPLE WILL VOTE THEM OUT???  MR. PRESIDENT, THE PEOPLE AREN'T STUPID AND I HOPE THEY DO VOTE OUT THOSE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE LATEST MESS, YOU AND MEMBERS OF YOUR PARTY!! 

Thank you Mr. President!

Thank you Mr. President!
                        Thank you for letting the world know, the American people are not a bunch of racist pigs.

                        Thank you for letting the world know, when it comes to, corruption and stupidity  in politics it's  not limited to any certain race, religion or other such factors.

                         Thank you for letting the American people and media, know they must be much more informed about the past of a potential presidential candidate.

                         Thank you for letting the American people know  just how important it is not to consider race, looks or sex in determining who will make a good President but rather if the person has ever done anything in their  life that would remotely qualify such a person for the job. (President)

                         Thank you for showing all of us by your actions as president,  because a  person is elected President of the United States of America  it doesn't make them any smarter than they were before the were elected. In other words, just because a  person is elected President that, election, in itself, doesn't make them smarter.
                           I would also like to thank most of the American people for not believing  a person just because they are President. No matter how many TV commercials they air, no matter how many speeches they give.
                          Thank you!

PS Please  feel free to comment.

Idiot, Evil, Incompetent or Well Planned?

Does he have any idea what he is doing?

Is this man an idiot?  (A question, not an accusation.) To be honest, I as well as many Americans am not sure what to believe. It's hard to believe or I don't want to believe he is evil, on the other hand it's hard to believe any person, at this level could be  as dumb as he seems. 

Example 1:

              The Obama Energy Department announced  that it has finalized a $737 million, yes, $737 MILLION loan guarantee for a Nevada solar project.

This qustionable decision comes weeks after a California-based solar manufacturer that received a $535 million loan guarantee from the Obama administration in 2009 filed for bankruptcy and laid off 1,100 workers.

"The $737 million loan guarantee will help finance construction of the Crescent Dunes Solar Energy Project, a 110-megawatt solar-power-generating facility in Nye County, Nev. The project is sponsored by Tonopah Solar, a subsidiary of California-based SolarReserve."

“The Energy Department says the project will result in 600 construction jobs and 45 permanent jobs.”*** $737 million divided by 45 = $16.37 million per job.

"Crescent Dunes is the latest solar project to receive a loan guarantee from the Energy Department in recent weeks. The department announced a $1.2 billion loan guarantee to Abengoa Solar for a solar generation project in California and a $150 million loan guarantee to 1366 Technologies for a Massachusetts solar manufacturing project earlier this month."

  

 $535Million  plus  $737Million  plus  $1.2Billion  plus  $150Million =  I  ask again, is this man an idiot, evil or what?

Example 2:

After tripling the US deficit in a year, increasing the federal budget by a trillion dollars in a little over 3 years, adding $4 trillion to the national debt in two-and-a-half years and overseeing the first downgrade of the American economy in a century, our failed president  lectured Europe on fiscal responsibility this week.

What is this man doing and why do we let him get by with it???? We all need to take a long hard look at his record before we vote. Unlike last time the people  have a record of what he has done to this country. It 's getting hard for any media outlet to put a good face on his record.........

Before you vote,  ask yourself, is this the change I was looking/voting for in the last election?

 *** Figures don't account for the 600 temp jobs but who cares anyway, jobs are jobs right?

  I don't have a calculator with enough space to figure how much money this administration has "dissed"  away. One has to wonder if the results are going as planned???

President told the CBC to take off their bedroom slippers, stop complaining and.........

     

           The President of the United States ruffled some feather (and more) while speaking at the Black Caucus annual awards dinner on Saturday. The President told them to take off their bedroom slippers, put on their marching shoes, stop grumblin', stop cryin', "shake it off," and "stop complaining."     The, "stop complaining," remark ticked off some of those attending the dinner. Maxine Waters,  wanted to know, who was he  talking to, she said, "I found that language a bit curious because the president spoke to the Hispanic Caucus, and certainly they're pushing him on immigration... he certainly didn't tell them to stop complaining," she said. "And he would never say that to the gay and lesbian community, who really pushed him on Don't Ask, Don't Tell." She seemed a little upset or surprised over the President's speech to the CBC.
 It is just my thought, but the less he says the better off he seems to be these days and  the less he does the better off the country will be!

Tell us what you are really up to Mr. President?

     
         Mr. President what are you doing?  I am sure you wanted to be President even if it wasn't entirely your idea. I don't know exactly who backed you in your run to become President and as much as I and others would love to know, right now that isn't all that important. The important thing is, what you are doing to the country and why? I thought you had gotten way in over your head  as well as some of those around you. However,  I am torn, I am not sure if you really don't know what is going on or you have a plan for the country you believe is better than what we have had  from the beginning. In either case you are, to put it lightly, screwing things up big time. I do mean big time!!!!!!!!
 We are in more debt that in any other time in our history and recently you have started to create class warfare. What's going on? Things are not getting better and won't if you and the others in DC keep throwing money, our money, down the tubes, out the window, into companies that take it and go bankrupt. Mr President stop and think of  all the money that has been "thrown away" since you have been President. Now tell me and the other Americans what do you or we have to show for it?
You can use  fancy words and nice speeches but don't  tell me anything about jobs you have "saved" or about  jobs you have created especially if they are government jobs. A government job is  tax payer money being spent by the government to create more government. Creating class warfare isn't helping either.......

  STOP SPENDING THE MONEY!!!!!!!!!

  Others have said, spending the people's money might  be what you are trying to do. Spend until things are so bad government (who screwed things up in the first place) has to step in and take over to "FIX" things, ...... again!
 You latest plan is pretty much like the first one. By the way, that didn't work either so why, pray tell, should anyone believe it is going to be different this time?
 My hope is, those left in  government that have any sense will try their hardest to stop you from "screwing up"  until the American people have a chance to vote you out  of the office of President of the United States. Hopefully  vote in someone with  business sense, who understands the way the economy works, who likes the form of government we have, who is willing to change the way government works and not change the the form of the government.

( It's hard to tell if the President is trying to bring  society and government to a more socialist  form or if he doesn't understand the way things works. It is hard for me to believe his is stupid or uninformed. )
I believe the media in this country did us all a disservice by not digging deeper into the current president's back ground and finding out exactly what he was all about before the election.
He, like everyone else in the country, has a right to his views on the way government should run. The media should have investigated and tried to find out  more about this man before  getting behind him and pinning theirs and some of the American people's hopes on his from of  CHANGE.   We still don't know what this guy is up to! One this is for sure, this has been a presidency of Change! In my humble opinion the Change has not been for the better.)

Wayne Allyn Root Maybe you should know more about him

Make your own decision
Decide if all or part of this story is true
But whatever you do  think about it before you vote in 2012:

Libertarian author, radio personality and politician Wayne Allyn Root had this  published in the Las Vegas Review-Journal on June 6, 2010.

"Barack Hussein Obama is no fool. He is not incompetent.  To the contrary, he is brilliant. He knows exactly what he's doing.  He is purposely overwhelming the U.S. economy to create systemic failure,
economic crisis and social chaos -- thereby destroying capitalism and our country from within.Barack Hussin Obama was my college classmate."
((( They were not roommates but attended the college at the same time)))

                                                    

(****The reasons for the President's actions, to me, are unclear, does he thinks he has a better system of government ? Does he think he is smarter than the founding fathers?****)

                                                               

         

 Do not be fooled.  "Look at his Czars...anti-business. .anti-American.

As Glenn Beck correctly predicted from day one, Barack Hussein Obama is following the plan of Cloward & Piven, two professors at Columbia University .

They outlined a plan to socialize America by overwhelming the system with government spending and entitlement demands.  Add up the clues below. Taken individually they're alarming.

Taken as a whole, it is a brilliant, Machiavellian game plan to turn the United States into a socialist/Marxist state with a permanent majority that desperately needs government for survival ... and can be counted on to always vote for bigger government.  Why not? They have no responsibility to pay for it.

 

Universal health care. The health care bill had very little to do with health care. It had everything to do with unionizing millions of hospital and health care workers, as well as adding 15,000 to 20,000 new IRS agents (who will join government employee unions).  Obama doesn't care that giving free health care to 30 million Americans will add trillions to the national debt.  What he does care about is that it cements the dependence of those 30 million voters to Democrats and big government.  Who but a socialist revolutionary would pass this reckless spending bill in the middle of a depression?

 

Cap and trade. Like health care legislation having nothing to do with health care, cap and trade has nothing to do with global warming.  It has everything to do with redistribution of income, government control
of the economy and a criminal payoff to Obama's biggest contributors.  Those powerful and wealthy unions and contributors (like GE, which owns NBC, MSNBC and CNBC) can then be counted on to support everything Obama wants.  They will kick-back hundreds of millions of dollars in contributions to Obama and the Democratic Party to keep them in power.  The bonus is that all the new taxes on Americans with bigger cars, bigger homes and businesses helps Obama "spread the wealth around.

 

Make Puerto Rico a state. Why? Who's asking for a 51st state?  Who's asking for millions of new welfare recipients and government entitlement addicts in the middle of a depression? Certainly not American taxpayers. But this has been Barack Hussein Obama's plan all along.  His goal is to add two new Democrat senators, five Democrat congressman and a million loyal Democratic voters who are dependent on big government. 

 

Legalize 12 million illegal Mexican immigrants.  Just giving these 12 million potential new citizens free health care alone could overwhelm the system and bankrupt America .  But it adds 12 million reliable new Democrat voters who can be counted on to support big government. Add another few trillion dollars in welfare, aid to dependent children,  food stamps, free medical, education, tax credits for the poor, and eventually Social Security.

 

Stimulus and bailouts. Where did all that money go?  It went to Democrat contributors, organizations (ACORN), and unions -- including billions of dollars to save or create jobs of government employees across the country.  It went to save GM and Chrysler so that their employees could keep paying union dues.  It went to AIG so that Goldman Sachs could be bailed out (after giving Obama almost $1 million in contributions).  A staggering $125 billion went to teachers (thereby protecting their union dues).  All those public employees will vote loyally Democrat to protect their bloated salaries and pensions that are bankrupting America .  The country goes broke, future generations face a bleak future, but Obama, the Democrat Party, government, and the unions grow more powerful.  The ends justify the means.

 

Raise taxes on small business owners, high-income earners, and job creators. Put the entire burden on only the top 20 percent of taxpayers, redistribute the income, punish success, and reward those who did nothing to deserve it (except vote for Obama).  Reagan wanted to dramatically cut taxes in order to starve the government. Barack Obama wants to dramatically raise taxes to starve his political opposition. With the acts outlined above, Barack Hussein Obama and his regime have created a vast and rapidly expanding constituency of voters dependent on big government; a vast privileged class of public employees who work for big government; and a government dedicated to destroying capitalism and installing themselves as socialist rulers by overwhelming the system.

 

Add it up and you've got the perfect Marxist scheme -- all devised by my Columbia University college classmate Barack Hussein Obama using the Cloward and Piven Plan."

                              

          I can't say, because I don't know him, exactly what he is up to. Something is not right, things have not been getting better and  some of the things his classmate says sure ring true.

Everyone has their opinion and that is what makes this country great, lets keep it that way. Be smart and when you hear the President telling the people, this time he has the solution and the solution is more of what didn't work last time, be CAREFUL, very careful.

Thank you for reading the blog I would like to know what you think, if you voted for the president or not.****

Thank you.

Waste not, want not .... Government Wasting Millions!

 Wasting millions of dollars on.......

You have got to see this, 

Please click here and watch --->

          The US government is wasting millions of dollars, yes, millions of dollars making coins:
                                       a) Nobody,(for the most part) wants     
                                       b) Most people don't know exist
                                       c) We don't need
                                       d) We  are going to  spend hundreds of thousands of
                                            dollars to build a place to store the unused coins
                                       e)  Are going to cost hundreds of thousands  of dollars to ship
                                             to storage.
                                        f) Are still being produced, (right now they are 

                                            being made, bagged, boxed and stored.)

        Is   anyone   sane   in   this   government?


SOMEBODY, PLEASE, GO TO WASHINGTON AND STOP THIS MADNESS.
Better yet, PEOPLE, please elect a president next year that is, at the very least, sane and has a touch of business sense. ( Maybe even a little common sense might help)

Guidance and Direction from "The State" -

           Irene swept up the east coast this past weekend, although damage was not as great as had been expected, ... there was damage and lots of damage. Power outages are still  affecting millions of people as well as the aftermath of flooding, high winds and downed trees. Parts of the Outer Banks of NC are now cut off, as the water split the main road and formed a new water way to the back bay.
          The President of the United States spoke to the people, especially those who had been adversely affected. The president told those  in the wake of Irene, to get outside, when it is safe to do so, and help each other in this time of need. Check on your neighbors, come together and start to  rebuild, first your spirit, then your homes and lives. The  government disaster teams are on their way to help you. OH NO, WAIT... HE WOULDN'T SAY ANYTHING LIKE THAT.....!!!!!! This is the Obama - Government Can Fix Everything  - Administration. He said" I urge Americans in affected areas to continue to listen for the guidance and direction of their state... ."
            Americans  are "can do" people. Americans, able to take care of themselves, do  so and, if possible, help those who can't. I guess, it struck me the wrong way when I heard the president of the United States of America telling people to take guidance and direction from "the state." ( It's this mind set that worries many people in this country)
            I am pretty sure  he meant well, but he should know by now, "the State" isn't what makes this country GREAT, it's the PEOPLE!

 ( I am not implying there is anything wrong or evil  with the help  coming from State workers or aid in the form of $'s.)
We all need to remember, the power comes from the people not the government.

Free Speech - Censorship Something Fishy Is Going On!

A “free-speech”  trick is coming from the Obama Administration.  The Federal Communications Commission  announced they were doing away with the “Fairness” Doctrine.  This federal doctrine of the 40'S    was to ensure the broadcasters gave equal time to differing political opinions.  However, the so called Fairness Doctrine was a back handed Censorship doctrine. 


       Don't be fooled, the FCC is implementing a set of "rules " to "serve the public interest"      ( wink wink).  These rules are being set up before doing away with the doctrine. Rules of  "localism," "media diversity" and requirements for  stations to "serve the public interest"  give the FCC the power to limit speech they don't agree with or like.


      These rules give unelected and  unaccountable people at the FCC the power to regulate how much  air time broadcaster must devote to "local issues" thus limiting the  amount of air time aka programs listeners want.


     The Diviersity  rule could deny the right of station owners to renew their licenses solely on racial grounds.


     American  of the past didn't give their lives so the 1st amendment could be stepped on by government employees of the FCC . These rules and regulations are a back handed  way  for the federal government to control what people hear. 


      It seems  censorship, control  of the air waves,  the end of free speech  and certain radio talk shows by the government  isn't as far away as one might  believe.

$35,00.00 to $40,000.00 A Week for the President's Vacation House!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                                        Leaving Air Force-1, 2010  Martha's Vineyard Vacation



  About $35,000.00 to $40,000.00 should cover the cost of the rental house the President and his family will be using for a week of R&R. All American's will feel better knowing  the Obamas will be paying their share of the vacation home and the taxpayers will be paying for the White House staff's and all of the security people's portion, just like we did last year!!!!
 I do wonder,  who is paying for the fuel cost to get the Obamas and the White House staff,  all the Security people and vehicles to  Martha's Vineyard. How many gallons of  jet fuel and gasoline and at what cost??  What will  this, well needed, vacation   cost the American taxpayer?
I dare say, it will be more than  a very large number of families make in a year.......
 They are cutting cost in Washington, sure they are, if you don't believe it just ask the President.
