Lately there has been a lot of speculation that Fox News is organizing these tea parties and all the protesters are just mad because “they lost the election”. First lets look at this “lost the election business”. I believe it could be said that we all lost the election, and several previous elections. The Federal Government is out of control and many people realize this, many people have been screaming about this for years and it has been true for years. We have lost our way.
I believe it was Rick Santelli from CNBC that got this whole business started, give credit where credit is due. These protests were going before the miserable pundits over at Fox News even knew what was going on. The only difference between Fox News’ coverage of the tea parties, and the rest of the media’s coverage of the tea parties is that Fox News has seen a glimpse of the truth and can no longer help themselves. The same belligerent retards that have belittled Libertarian ideals for so long now champion many of our views, how ironic.
It appears Obama and his pawn, err Attorney General Eric Holder are gearing up to push yet another “Assault Weapon” ban on the United States. Please note that “Assault Weapon” will always appear in quotations when I address the chicken shit nomenclature. Back on track, keep in mind the reasoning behind this new call for a ban isn’t because of our homeland issues, instead it’s to help Mexico ebb the recent drug cartel violence. We’ve seen how well gun bans work with Chicago’s violent crime rate, the very city in which Obama has been trained in. Instead of the Obamadministration giving a legitimate reason to take away our legally owned guns, they choose to tie it to Mexico. The US State Department released a travel alert to Mexico on February 20th stating:
Some recent Mexican army and police confrontations with drug cartels have resembled small-unit combat, with cartels employing automatic weapons and grenades. Large firefights have taken place in many towns and cities across Mexico but most recently in northern Mexico, including Tijuana, Chihuahua City and Ciudad Juarez. During some of these incidents, U.S. citizens have been trapped and temporarily prevented from leaving the area.
The murders and crime in Mexico are no surprise yet Mr. Holder seems to think our lack of a federal assault weapons ban is what is causing this crime. Holder, speaking of the proposed assault weapons ban:
“I think that will have a positive impact in Mexico, at a minimum.” Holder added, “I met yesterday with Attorney General Medina Mora of Mexico, and we discussed the unprecedented levels of violence his country is facing because of their enforcement efforts. It’s something, as I said, that the president talked about during the campaign,” he said. “There are obviously a number of things that are — that have been taking up a substantial amount of his time, and so, I’m not sure exactly what the sequencing will be.”
Apparently our “Assault Weapons” and Grenades our shipped en masse across our border to Mexico. Nevermind the plethora of unstable countries in Central as well as South America. They are all coming from here, all of the Fully Automatic rifles and grenades that can legally be purchased in the good ol’ USA. Idiots.
Here’s a novel idea Mr. Holder as well as the Obamadministration. Instead of being pussies and blaming lack of gun legislation on violence occuring in foreign countries, why don’t you just come out and tell the truth that you would like to take our guns away from us so there will be no resistance when you take the rest of our liberties away and enact you’re socialist agenda. It’s worked so well in the past!
Republican Representative, John Linder, and forty four other Representatives have introduced H.R. 25: Fair Tax Act of 2009. In short this piece of legislation who get rid of the Federal Income Tax as well as the IRS, and would use a flat rate sales tax that’s imposed by each individual state. Not only does this make sense, but it’s also a win-win situation, it removes the tiered, complicated Income Tax system, reduces government spending by ridding ourselves of the IRS, and finally delegates the roll of collection to individual states. We get rid of the sham known as the IRS and fall back more on the 10th Amendment, who could argue?
For one, the left will be the first to play the “Burdens the Low Income Families” card. However once said card is played, it can be instantly rebutted by pointing out that said liberanazi should read Chapter 3 of the Bill and also reminding them that the majority of states in the US do not place an income tax on unprepared food and prescription medication, the only two neccesities of life that are purchased in such a way that a tax might be applicable. These two justifications completely null the “progressive” argument against a fair tax.
Furthermore, this bill would also be a key in dealing with the problem of illegal immigration milking our public systems. Illegal immigrants in this country have a very large amount of purchasing power and disposable income, however as of now very few pay a tax of any kind. By implying a flat rate sales tax on goods purchased these illegal immigrants will now also be contributing taxes to our governments coffers.
As anyone reading this should be able to tell, I vehemently support a flat rate sales tax that applies to all who make purchases. It’s fair, it makes sense, and most importantly it rids us of yet another government agency. Contact your local represeantives so we can hopefully see this bill make progress.
This morning on CNBC Rick Santelli openly called for revolution against the administration on air. Speaking from the trading floor of the Chicago Board of Trade he openly voiced his frustrations and thoughts of the Obama Administration’s Stimulus plan, while being cheered on by the traders on the floor.
“The Government is promoting bad behavior because we certainly don’t want to put stimulus forth and give people a whopping eight or ten dollars in their check and think they ought to save it. In terms of modifications, I have an idea. The new administration is big on computers and technology, how ’bout this new president and administration. Why don’t you put up a website to have people vote on the internet as a referendum to see if we really want to subsidize the loser’s mortgages.”
The prior quote drew applause and cheers from the workers on the floor while the Joe Kernen attempted to dismiss the the applause calling the workers “putty in your hands.” Check the video out yourself and enjoy the dissent being brought forth on television.
According to the White House President Obama does not support any movement to bring back the Fairness Doctrine. The announcement by the White House to FauxNews is the first solid stance we have seen Obama take on this issue.
“As the president stated during the campaign, he does not believe the Fairness Doctrine should be reinstated.”
– White House Spokesman, Ben Labolt
Hopefully Obama can stand to this principle when his liberal chronies come knocking on his door to implement restrictions on the right wing pundits for disagreeing with their views. Time will see, but holding firm on this issue is one less piece socialism to worry about.
