This is what happens when you elect a socialist

Investors have no confidence that the newly elected president will strengthen the market.



Week after Bush was elected the second time.

if you voted for Obama, You got your change alright!

Are you a "HENRY" ?

Henry - High Earners, Not Rich Yet). They make $250,000-plus and get taxed to high heaven. And they're about to get socked again. Put simply, the HENRYs are the bulwark of the professional and entrepreneurial class that drives the economy.

They are relentless strivers. Aspiring HENRYs played by the rules and did everything right: They won the best grades in high school, got accepted at good colleges and grad schools, and worked daunting schedules as medical interns or associates in law firms. They're an upwardly mobile group: Most HENRYs used their talent and grit to advance from the middle class, and those who got a hand from affluent parents are determined to do even better for their kids.

"What they have in common is that they worked incredibly hard to build their careers and work incredibly hard to move ahead." Now this group of superachievers is being targeted as a cash machine. Barack Obama has pledged to pay for middle-class tax cuts and credits by raising tjavascript:void(0)axes on the HENRYs. "It's time for folks who make over $250,000 a year to pay their fair share," Obama has declared regularly on the campaign trail.

Obama and the congressional Democrats frequently refer to households earning over $250,000 as the "rich" and the "wealthiest Americans." But whether the HENRYs are truly "rich," or ever will be, is debatable.

Congratulation Obama!

You have won the "I WANT MY MOMMY" Election! This was not an election where the American voters were looking for someone to protect their freedoms. Instead, it was an election where people were looking for someone to take care of them. Self-sufficiency seems a bit old-fashioned right now. Why work so hard to be self-sufficient when candidates are falling all over themselves to provide the American people with womb-to-tomb or, if you will, cradle-to-grave paternalism.

This has been a "what's in it for me" vote. Are you going to give me health care? Are you going to make sure my job is guaranteed? Are you going to cover my child care costs? You aren't going to make me pay taxes, are you? How about all those evil rich people? Aren't you going to take some of their money away from them and give it to me? After all ... I work for my money, they cheated and stole for theirs. Make them pay their fair share of taxes. Me? I'm tired of paying any share.

WHAT WE HAVE TO LOOK FORWARD TO:

• The end of the secret ballot in union elections
• A return of the Fairness Doctrine
• A tax code punishing the wealthy, businesses, entrepreneurs, achievers
• More federal government in government schools
• Universal healthcare
• Cap-and-trade policies on coal (no nuclear power, no drilling)
• Supreme Court justices who favor a vaporous idea of "fairness" over the Constitution
• The security of our nation and our allies (particularly Israel)

I keep thinking about that foolish woman at the Obama rally who said that with a Barack Obama presidency she "wouldn't have to worry about putting gas in her car and wouldn't have to worry about paying her mortgage." There are so many like her – people who sincerely believe that an Obama presidency is going to be a substitute for work. Give these people about six months and they're going to be wondering what happened ... where their gravy train went ... why they're still having to work for a living.

IT'S UP TO YOU

The last thing I would want to do is discourage any capable and qualified voter from heading out today to vote. Now by capable and qualified I mean someone who is actually a citizen and someone who has somewhat of a clue as to what is going on out there. The sad truth is that there are going to be legions of voters like that idiot woman at an Obama rally who thought that once Obama wins here mortgage payments and gas for her car were going to be taken care of.

Obama is going to win this thing. There are only two mysteries left. How big will the victory be, and will Obama get a filibuster-proof U.S. Senate. If I had not already case my vote during early voting I would stand in line as long as it took here in Georgia to make sure that our Republican Senator is not replaced by a left-wing Democrat – one who is destined to become Harry Reid's sock puppet if he wins.

So ... some Election Day thoughts:

Thanks, Republicans. This one belongs to you. The Republican Party completely abandoned its principles after the voter revolution of 1994. The GOP became the party of big spending and big government. Beltway Republicans became drunk on power and completely forgot why they were there. They gave us no real reason to go to the polls and vote for them save for that filibuster-proof Senate scare and the fear of what the election of a Marxist will mean to our freedoms.

Thanks, George Bush. Thanks for your spectacular lack of leadership on issues of spending and big government over the past two terms. You get all the credit in the world for keeping America safe from another terrorist attack ... but when a president signs a bill he thinks is unconstitutional (McCain-Feingold) just because he thinks the Supreme Court will straighten things out; and when a president introduces grand new entitlement programs (Medicare drug benefits) and fails to veto even one pork-laden spending bill ... well, the result is an uninspired electorate and ... Barack Obama.

Thanks, Government Schools. Back to that woman at the Obama rally: Does she really believe that once Obama is elected she won't have to worry about putting gas in her car or paying her mortgage? Yup, she probably does. Then we have those Harlem voters who think that Barack Obama did a fine job in selecting Sarah Palin as his running mate. This election, more than any I can remember, illustrates why Democrats are so determined to preserve our system of government education. American voters are, for the most part, spectacularly uninformed about the issues and the candidates they are voting for. Did I say "uninformed?" I meant to say ignorant. For the most part these people casting ballots today could not name their two U.S. Senators and their Congressman if their flat-screens and cell phones depended on it. Things are only going to get worse. Get ready for an all-out war on school choice .. and that includes the home schooling option. The era of the teacher's unions is upon us.

And thanks Voters. This is an election that has been driven by wealth envy and celebrity worship. I really don't see any of this changing anytime soon ... so, whatchagonnado?

Things that irritate me - Bad News Reports

Good Samaritan causes accident on I-70

Posted: May 13, 2008 12:45 PM
I-70 just before the ramp to I-465 on the east side

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) - A man trying to be a good Samaritan on Interstate 70 caused a wreck instead.

The driver of a pickup truck told 24-Hour News 8 that he stopped his vehicle in the center lane of I-70 just before the ramp to I-465 on the east side. He did it to move a ladder out of the roadway.

But a woman driving her car didn't notice and hit the pickup, flipping her car upside down.

No one was seriously hurt in the wreck.

Now how the heck is this the "Good Samaritan's" fault. The woman driver essentially drove into a brick wall (brick wall, stopped truck - it is all the same; she wasn't looking to make a difference) and flipped her car. hats off the Good Samaritan for teaching a lesson in inattentive driving!

Don’t Close the Blinds...

I Do not know who wrote this, and I could not find the with a quick search . Nevertheless a great read!

The other day, my son wanted to know why America goes to war... I told my son to look out of our front living room window.

I said "Son, tell me what you see?"

"I see trees and cars and our neighbor's houses." he replied.

"OK, now I want you to pretend that our house and our yard is the United States of America and you are the President."

My son responded, "OK."

"Now I want you to look out the window and pretend that every house and yard on this block is a different country."

"I want you to pretend you see the leader of that nation there (I pointed across the street) come out of his house with his wife. He has her by the hair and is hitting her. You see her bleeding and crying. He hits her in the face, he throws her on the ground, and then he starts to kick her to death. Their children run out and are afraid to stop him, they are screaming and crying, they are watching this but do nothing because they are kids and they are afraid of their father. You see all of this, what do you do?"

"Dad?"

"What do you do son?"

"I'd call the police."

"OK. Pretend that the police are the United Nations. They take your call. They listen to what you know and saw but they refuse to help. What do you do then?"

"I’m not sure, the police are supposed to help!"

"They don't want to, because they say that it is not their or your place to get involved and that you should stay out of it."

"But Dad...he killed her!!" my son exclaims.

"I know he did...but the police tell you to stay out of it. Now I want you to look out that window and pretend you see our neighbor who you're pretending is a leader of another country turn around and do the same thing to his children."

"He kills them?"

"Yes son, he does. What do you do?"

"Well, if the police don't want to help, I will go and ask my next door neighbor to help me stop him." he says.

"Son, our next door neighbor sees what is happening and refuses to get involved as well. He refuses to open the door and help you stop him.”

"But Dad, I NEED help! I can't stop him by myself!"

I ask him, "Well, what else can you do?”

"OK, no one wants to help you, the man across the street saw you ask for help and saw that no one would help you stop him. He stands taller and puffs out his chest. Guess what he does next son?"

"What Dad?"

"He walks across the street to the old ladies house and breaks down her door and drags her out, steals all her stuff and sets her house on fire and then - he kills her. He turns around and sees you standing in the window and laughs at you. WHAT DO YOU DO?"

"It’s time to do something dad…"

I raise my voice for effect, "WHAT DO YOU DO?"

"I'd close the blinds, Dad."

"Why?"

"Because... the police are supposed to help people who need them and they won't help. You always say that neighbors are supposed to HELP neighbors, but they won't help either they won't help me stop him. I'm afraid.... I can't do it by myself Dad. I can't look out my window and just watch him do all these terrible things and do nothing so, I'm just going to close the blinds and go turn on the TV so I can't see what he's doing... and I'm going to pretend that it is not happening."

My son thinking it was over bowed his head in thought. He needed to understand something else so I continued:

"Son"

"Yes, Dad?"

"Open the blinds - that man.... he's at your front door... "WHAT DO YOU DO?"

My son looks at me, anger and defiance in his eyes. He balls up his fists and looks me square in the eyes and without hesitation he says: "I DEFEND MY FAMILY DAD! I'M NOT GOING LET HIM HURT MOM OR MY SISTER! I'M GOING FIGHT HIM, DAD!"

A tear rolled down my cheek and I grabbed my son and hugged him tight, and said... "Don’t ever let it become too late to fight him, when he's too strong and he's already at YOUR front door son. You should stop him BEFORE he kills his wife, and his children and the old lady across the way. You have to do what's right, even if you have to do it alone, before it’s too late."

“Do you remember who Adolph Hitler is son?”

“I do father, we learned a bit about him in school.”

I told him, “The same kinds of people who are calling America bad today are the same kinds of people who let Hitler grow to be powerful enough to threaten the entire world. When America was drawn into their war because they did nothing, America lost millions of men and women to save everyone else.”

I ask him, “Do you know who Edmund Burke is?”

“No dad, I don’t”

“He once said, All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.”

New Preamble to The Constitution

The famed "Bill of No Rights" was written in 1993 by Lewis Napper, a self-described amateur philosopher and from Mississippi who ran for a U.S. Senate seat in 2000 as a Libertarian (Not State Representative Mitchell Kaye from GA).

I don't agree with all of Libertarian platform, but more and more Libertarians are stepping up to the plate where Republicans are afraid to get into (I certaily don't expect a Liberal/Progressive to say any of this).

"We the sensible people of the United States, in an attempt to help everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice, avoid more riots, keep our nation safe, promote positive behavior, and secure the blessings of debt-free liberty to ourselves and our great-great-great-grandchildren, hereby try one more time to ordain and establish some common sense guidelines for the terminally whiny, guilt ridden, delusional, and other conservative bed-wetters. We hold these truths to be self evident: that a whole lot of people are confused by the Bill of Rights and are so dim they require a Bill of NON-Rights."

ARTICLE I: You do not have the right to a new car, big screen TV, or any other form of wealth. More power to you if you can legally acquire them, but no one is guaranteeing anything.

ARTICLE II: You do not have the right to never be offended. This country is based on freedom, and that means freedom for everyone -- not just you! You may leave the room, turn the channel, express a different opinion, etc.; but the world is full of idiots, and probably always will be.

ARTICLE III: You do not have the right to be free from harm. If you stick a screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more careful; do not expect the tool manufacturer to make you and all your relatives independently wealthy.

ARTICLE IV: You do not have the right to free food and housing. Americans are the most charitable people to be found, and will gladly help anyone in need, but we are quickly growing weary of subsidizing generation after generation of professional couch potatoes who achieve nothing more than the creation of another generation of professional couch potatoes . Get an education and go to work....don't expect everyone else to take care of you.

ARTICLE V: You do not have the right to free health care. That would be nice, but from the looks of public housing, we're just not interested in public health care.

ARTICLE VI: You do not have the right to physically harm other people. If you kidnap, rape, intentionally maim, or kill someone, don't be surprised if the rest of us want to see you fry in the electric chair.

ARTICLE VII: You do not have the right to the possessions of others. If you rob, cheat, or coerce away the goods or services of other citizens, don't be surprised if the rest of us get together and lock you away in a place where you still won't have the right to a big screen color TV or a life of leisure.

ARTICLE VIII: You do not have the right to a job.. All of us sure want you to have a job, and will gladly help you along in hard times, but we expect you to take advantage of the opportunities of education and vocational training laid before you to make yourself useful.

ARTICLE IX: You do not have the right to happiness. Being an American means that you have the right to PURSUE happiness, which by the way, is a lot easier if you are unencumbered by an over abundance of idiotic laws created by those of you who were confused by the Bill of Rights.

ARTICLE X: This is an English speaking country. We don't care where you are from, English is our language. Learn it or go back to wherever you came from!

ARTICLE XI: You do not have the right to change our country's history or heritage. This country was founded on the belief in one true God. And yet, you are given the freedom to believe in any religion, any faith, or no faith at all; with no fear of persecution. The phrase IN GOD WE TRUST is part of our heritage and history, and if you are uncomfortable with it, TOUGH!

Your IQ score is...

I just took The Classic IQ Test and scored 138

According to the score My Intellectual Type is Visionary Philosopher. This means I am highly intelligent and have a powerful mix of skills and insight that can be applied in a variety of different ways. Like Plato, my exceptional math and verbal skills make me very adept at explaining things to others — and at anticipating and predicting patterns.


According to this chart, I fall in the 99th percentile of the population. Nice!
But as far as rarity, 1 in every 177 people has IQ 138 or more. I guess I am not one of those one in a million geniuses

The Mensa entrance limit is 130.81 (98th percentile), may be I should see if I qualify with the real test.. :)

But the most interesting of all was this chart:

Watch out for my rolling head

From a Bangladeshi blog, here’s the dreaded cartoon of blasphemy—it’s the Meow-hammed cat!

Sure is tough to be a cartoonist lately. The government of Bangladesh has ordered the arrest of another cartoonist for publishing a "blasphemous" caricature of the Prophet Muhammad.

Muslim mobs publicly torched the paper, and, of course, you have the required protests. The angry Muslims want "exemplary punishment" for the cartoonist and the paper's editor.

It's totally innocuous. Too bad we can't say the same thing about radical Islamists.



Translation:

* Boy, what is your name?
- My name is Babu.
* It is customary to mention Muhammed before the name.

* What is your father’s name?
- Muhammed Abu

* What’s this in your lap?
- Muhammed cat
