Maxine "lets nationalize everything" Waters to take over financial services
Wall Street executives are bracing for the possibility that Rep. Maxine Waters will take over as the top Democrat on the House Financial Services Committee after Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) retires.
Waters, an outspoken California liberal who is considered to the left of Frank on financial and housing issues, suggested in a statement Monday that she is laying the groundwork to become the senior Democrat on the panel.

3rd world assholes once again take up AGW scam for U.S. money
Top U.S. and European Union officials pledged Monday to “ensure a positive, balanced outcome” at international climate change talks in Durban, South Africa.
And yes Obama will oblige them. But how does he think he will get money from House even if the Senate ratifies the treaty?

There is a federal law telling when a judge should be recused and Kagan meets it
But it will never happen. I see another 5 –4 split with Kennedy bearing the outcome.

Regardless of the quantity of stories, the amount of bonedness remains quite high and accelerates ever upwardly with each passing day.
The only relief is a Farrah Fawcett poster.

Barney Frank is now getting a fat pension paid for by the taxpayers...
...when what he should get is a fat cellmate named Bubba.
Good riddance. Now, we need a similar commitment by others of Fwank's ilk like Pelosi, Boxer, Durbin, Kerry, Waters, et al.

Mitt is a Democrat, for all intents and purposes: he likes big government and big government intrusion into everyone's life. This is why the Establishment GOP embraces him.
As Rush pointed out recently, the GOP Machine has no interest in reducing the size, or the cost, or the interference of Washington. They want to run it.

I'm fairly neurotic about keeping spreadsheets for my business, personal expenses and subsets within the two...was analyzing my business YOY and specifically compared 2010/2011 for a few items -- one being fuel costs.
For 2011 (and keep in mind my mileage was within 1% of 2010), my fuel costs are up $1000 for the year. Couple that with increases within all personal categories (healthcare, groceries, fuel, etc.) and I'm well behind 2010 in personal savings...not good and I don't see it getting better for 2012.

Yet, our SCOAMF, probably one of the most famous people in the world, gets zero people who knew him from his past?
Have you not heard the Legend of the Won? He sprang, fully formed, from the forehead of Soros. He has no past, for that is no longer required. He had no Record of Being, save that of Organizing the wretched masses who would soon recite his name in unison and be fed, housed, and clothed from his Stash. His praise is to be sung by schoolchildren, his fame to be spread by the Sacred Teleprompter throughout the land.
He has no need of the past. The past, the present, and the future are all Him. Anything that came before was Less Than Him and is to be discounted and discarded. He is What We've Been Waiting For. He who will lower the seas and redistribute the lucre of the Filthy Onepercent to the yearning masses.
He is The Won! Praise be to Him above all!
Say with us, Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm.

The era of big government is just beginning and the unwashed masses need real leaders, firmly grounded in establishment principles, that know how to run all those vital government programs efficiently (not stopping them or defunding them but running them well).
That's why you should roll over and vote for Oromney, because he will be OUR technocrat.

Fast Trains and Slow, Puny, Expensive Cars
Posted by: Doctor Fish at November 29, 2011 07:40 AM (Lt/Za)
Well, the EPA took the heat off Congress to actually do anything legislative that might be used in a campaign against them, so there's that positive aspect.
Better yet, neither the fast trains nor workable puny, slow, efficient cars exist. They do have the deadly expensive puny car thing down pat though.

A retired Chicago labor leader secured a $158,000 public pension
— roughly five times greater than what a typical retired public-service
worker in the Windy City receives — after being rehired for just one
day of active duty on the city payroll, local news reports said.
According the the Chicago Tribune Dennis Gannon stands to collect approximately $5 million in city pension funds during his lifetime.

When even the R politicians call even the slightest decrease in the legislatively mandated budgetary yearly increase in spending, a budget cut, it does not augur well for the future of the republic, or the integrity of our politicians.

This is a link to a story on American Thinker about the FOIA on the Fed Reserve and TARP. It is both interesting and scary, and should be read.

Barney Frank is getting out right before an indictment. If running a gay brothel out of your basement doesn't chase you from office, nothing will. Redistricting my ass. His new district would be just as commie as his last one. The only thing that's getting him out is a casket or an indictment, and he's still breathing.
My new greatest fear is that he'll end up teaching at my law school.

True story. There was special wording written into a law in Springfield that allowed this and other shenanigans... this wasn't a teacher though.. these are union bosses that are allowed to teach one day as a sub and then all of their years of service as a union boss can be brought into the much more lucrative teacher retirement system.

We? The Federal Reserve that presumes to "own" the US Government and you and me has been bailing out the IMF since Clinton/Bush/Paulson/Goldman-Sachs fucked everyone "because they could" because the one person whose job it was to enforce the banking-investment regulation in place was ordered to stop doing her job.
The Fed, the IMF? Mitt Romney will facilitate that intertwined corruption of the US Dollar in favor of the new universal-global monetary unit. He's to be the Fed's salesman from the Oval Office if he's allowed to win.
So, will "we" bail out the EU?
My vote won't. The Austrian Economics School doesn't. Why pour more bad investment down the drain propping up socialism? We don't even have the money to pour down the loser drain. It's not even our damned drain. The point of US tax dollars is to build the US DOMESTIC infrastructure.

Republican Sens. Rand Paul (Ky.) and John McCain (Ariz.) battled on the Senate floor Tuesday over a proposed amendment to the pending defense authorization bill that could allow American citizens who are suspected of terrorism to be denied a civilian trial. Paul argued the amendment, which is cosponsored by McCain, "puts every single American citizen at risk" and suggested that if the amendment passes, "the terrorists have won."

Kill the baby killers, accused by "unspecified 'reliable sources'" orchestrating unsupported headline propaganda to spread the chaos of war, as if that's diplomacy. Hell, the UN can't even control their own "reliable personnel" from profiting through human slave-sex trade and raping children for the hell of it, "because they can". Closer to home, ask Barney Frank or Penn State. At least there's real evidence against the Penn State sports program -- UN/NATO going to bomb it to hell and gone?
