Just when you think you’ve heard it all,, our illustrious Congress quietly comes up with a new zinger to put their hands in your pockets, and pick them while you aren’t watching.
Isn't this just wonderful! I wonder if our Democrat-controlled Congress used its favorite phrase ("We have to pass the bill, to see what's in it") when it passed this gem of pork barrel legislation.
“Welfare recipients are now eligible to receive” what he described as (1) a FREE new cell phone, and (2) approximately 70 FREE minutes of air time every month. SafeLink Wireless is a government supported program that provides a free cell phone and airtime each month for income-eligible customers. In other words, your tax dollars are being distributed to a wireless phone provider to provide welfare recipients with free cell phones and airtime.
We are $14 Trillion in debt, Congress is balking at continuing unemployment payments to those who want to work, and Congress is increasing the dole-out to dead beats.
The ship of State is sinking, and it’s sinking fast. The old concept of getting ahead through hard work has flown out the window. It has been replaced by Obama’s and Congress’ idea of “Hope and Change.” The country has changed all right, changed to "Why should I work for it, when I can get it for free?"

Not Bush's Fault
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Remember the day...January 3rd, 2007 was the day the Democrats took over the Senate and the Congress. At the time: The DOW Jones closed at 12,621.77. The GDP for the previous quarter was 3.5%. The Unemployment rate was 4.6%. George Bush's Economic policies SET A RECORD of 52 STRAIGHT MONTHS of JOB CREATION!
Remember the day...January 3rd, 2007 was the day that Barney Frank took over the House Financial Services Committee and Chris Dodd took over the Senate Banking Committee. The economic meltdown that happened 15 months later was in what part of the economy? BANKING AND FINANCIAL SERVICES!!!
THANK YOU DEMOCRATS for taking us from 13,000 DOW, 3.5 GDP and 4.6% Unemployment... to this CRISIS by (among MANY other things) dumping 5-6 TRILLION Dollars of toxic loans on the economy from YOUR Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac! (BTW: Bush asked Congress 17 TIMES to stop Fannie & Freddie - starting in 2001 because it was Financially risky for the US economy):
And who took the THIRD highest pay-off from Fannie Mae AND Freddie Mac???? OBAMA. And who fought against reform of Fannie and Freddie??? The HYPOCRITE in Chief Obama
So when a LIB tries to blame Bush...REMEMBER JANUARY 3rd, 2007.... THE DAY THE DEMOCRATS TOOK OVER!

This Gives a New Meaning to Stimulus Money
Feds Spent $800,000 of Economic Stimulus on African Genital-Washing Program
Monday, September 13, 2010

(CNSNews.com) – The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), a division of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), spent $823,200 of economic stimulus funds in 2009 on a study by a UCLA research team to teach uncircumcised African men how to wash their genitals after having sex.
The genitalia-washing program is part of a larger $12-million UCLA study examining how to better encourage Africans to undergo voluntary HIV testing and counseling – however, only the penis-washing study received money from the 2009 economic stimulus law. The washing portion of the study is set to end in 2011.
“NIH Announces the Availability of Recovery Act Funds for Competitive Revision Applications,” the grant abstract states. “We propose to evaluate the feasibility of a post-coital genital hygiene study among men unwilling to be circumcised in Orange Farm, South Africa.”
Because AIDS researchers have been unsuccessful in convincing most adult African men to undergo circumcision, the UCLA study proposes to determine whether researchers can develop an after-sex genitalia-washing regimen that they can then convince uncircumcised African men to follow.
“The aim of the proposed feasibility study is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a post-coital male genital hygiene procedure, which participants will be asked to practice immediately post-coitus or at least 12 hours after,” reads the abstract.
Entitled “Community-Based HIV VCT: South Africa,” the name of the broader umbrella project, the program plans to test how well received the penis-washing regimen is among South African men.
If most of the men in the study wash their genitals after sex, are willing to do so after the study ends, and report that their partners accept the regimen, the researchers will develop another study to see if the “penile cleansing procedure” actually works to prevent HIV infections.
“If we find that men are able to practice consistent washing practices after sex, we will plan to test whether this might protect men from becoming HIV infected in a later study,” the grant says.
The study’s lead investigator Dr. Thomas J. Coates was the fourth highest-funded researcher in the country in 2002 and is currently conducting HIV research on three continents.
CNSNews.com asked both Coates and NIMH the following question: “The Census Bureau says the median household income in the United States is $52,000. How would you explain to the average American mom and dad -- who make $52,000 per year -- that taxing them to pay for this grant was justified?”
Coates, who was unavailable for comment, directed CNSNews.com to ask grant-related questions of his assistant, Darya Freedman, who did not respond.
The NIMH also declined to respond to CNSNews.com’s question.

Roller Derby
When I was a kid and we lived in LA I used to watch Roller Derby. It was not like Roller Derby today, they were much rougher, bigger tracks and slanted upwards. I would put on my skates (the old fashioned kind with the key that was strapped to your shoes) and pretend to be a Roller Derby girl.
I went to the Roller Derby Saturday night, what a hoot. We started with the Color Guard and the National Anthem. Then two games, the B team and A team that travels. We skunked NW Arkansas. Anyway if you have Roller Derby in your town go to a game, it will be some of the funnest 4 hours you ever spend. I know I am going back.
Maybe when I retire I can start my next career as the oldest Roller Derby Girl. Now all I need is my roller derby name: I think "Crabby Knitter."

Electric Vehicles Could Get A Volt
Hamburger? Fries? Milk shake? Want to throw an electrical charge in with that?
Yes, voltage is on the menu at a McDonald's near Raleigh, NC.
At least 535 charging stations are operating in the US at hotels, parking garages, airports, libraries and even a pizzeria. Nearly 80% are in California. (It figures).
The Nissan Leaf can go 100 miles on a battery charge, compared with the Chevrolet Volt's 40 miles. If I owned a Volt I could not even get to my lys without stopping to charge.
Numnuts wants to put 1 million plug-in vehicles on the road by 2015. Somehow I can't see him trading in his Hemi for a Leaf. The government is spending $2.4 billion to encourage companies to develop electric vehicles. It takes 8 hours to fully charge the Leaf at 220V and 20 hours to charge at 110V. What if you have a power outage, how do you charge your car and how much is this gonna skyrocket electricity rates with crap and tax about to hit.
Personally I drive a Murano and she burns Premium. I dare you to make me get rid of her.

Michelle's Mirror
If you have not been to http://www.michellesmirror.com/ you have to go. Whoever writes this is a scream and shows just how fashionable the angry one isn't. I don't know who dresses her but I think I saw stuff at Goodwill that looked better than most of the stuff she wears. And who told her putting a wide belt under the mosquito belts would give her cleavage. Well check it for yourself and be prepared to laugh yourself silly.
Tax Breaks for Films Get Mixed Reviews
Even if you never go to movies, you are contributing to Hollywood production budgets. That is because while states are cutting services to plug massive budget shortfalls, many are still giving away tens of millions of dollars in tax incentives to production companies that shoot movies and TV shows inside their borders. Now some states are starting to rethink those subsidies.
Overall, states gave away $1.8 billion in incentives to Hollywood between 2006 and 2008. Filmmakers bid states against one another and reap the benefit. States are engaging in this escalating bidding war to win over a marginal amount of business. It's a race to the bottom.
Kansas and Iowa have suspended their programs. Arizona's will expire this year and Pennsylvania reduced the amount of its credit. Supports of the tax credits say they help create jobs and boost local economies.

She's Fed Up With School Lunches
As a kid, did you ever wonder what they put in those school lunches to make them so, well, unique? (I took my lunch, and the looks of some of that stuff in the 60's, well now we know.)
An anonymous blogger attempts to find out on Fed Up With Lunch: The School Lunch Project. Flagging herself as a "teacher who is eating school lunch everyday in 2010" this brave woman tries to get to the bottom of why school lunches are so inadequate. She lives in Illinois.
A pre-packaged pbj sandwich actually made her sick,and she drank so much milk she became lactose intolerant. Pizza and hotdogs are served often.
So if you are curious about school lunches go to www.fedupwithschoollunch.blogspot.com Better have that trash can close by.

The Chocolte Condundrum
We've been hearing for sometime that chocolate is an antidote to depression. But now some solid research has been done - and the results are unexpected.
Researchers asked more than 900 adults from San Diego about their chocolate eating habits, then used a standard scale to measure the subject's symptoms of depression. The data found that those who rated highest on the depression scale also consumed more chocolate - an average of almost 12 servings/month. In other words, eating more chocolate seems to be linked to being more depressed.
While chocolate may make people depressed, it's also possible that depressed people crave it more because it improves their moods - and have learned to "self-treat".
I don't care what they say I am eating as much chocolate as I can, how about you?

Sweet Tax
So the state of Washington thinks by taxing soda, juice, and other drinks that have sugar in them that people won't drink them and lose weight. Yea right and people from Mars are green. Now the state of Kansas is about to pass the same tax. One cent for every teaspoon of sugar in a drink. Ok all that is going to do is make the people of Kansas drive to Missouri or Colorado or Oklahoma or some other state and buy their drinks there. Gas in Kansas is more expensive and they drive to another state to buy their gas too. Also they are going to up cigarette and alcohol tax. Honestly you can tax us to death but until you get the budgets under control and quit wasting taxpayer money all you are going to do is make this country one big 300 million welfare pot. Oh but wait that is what this administration wants, is for us all to be independent on the government. The tax is wrong whatever you do is not going to make people quit drinking their Dr Pepper or lose weight. Strange that none of those pennies will go to help the obesity in this country. So what are those pennies paying for?
World Day of Prayer
So Judge Barbara Crabb decides World Day of Prayer is unconstititional. Really Babs, cos I believe the founding fathers wrote the Constitution based on their belief and faith in God and did not want to be ruled by the King of England. You can do whatever you want but you can't make me stop praying. Methinks perhaps a small prayer from you to God would be in order after what you just did.
So Babs consider these facts and think again:
Congress set aside December 18, 1777 as a day of thanksgiving so the American people “may express the grateful feelings of their hearts and consecrate themselves to the service of their divine benefactor” and on which they might “join the penitent confession of their manifold sins . . . that it may please God, through the merits of Jesus Christ, mercifully to forgive and blot them out of remembrance.” Congress also recommended that Americans petition God “to prosper the means of religion for the promotion and enlargement of that kingdom which consists in righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost.
In 1789, the same day Congress finished drafting the First Amendment it requested President Washington to declare a National day of prayer and thanksgiving. The proclamation declared that “it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor.”
In 1795, Samuel Adams, who signed the Declaration of Independence, ratified the Constitution, and served as governor of Massachusetts, issued A Proclamation For a Day of Public Fasting, Humiliation and Prayer.
By 1815, more than 2,000 official governmental calls to prayer had been issued at both the State and Federal levels, with thousands more issued since 1815.
In 1863, Abraham Lincoln appointed a National Day of Prayer: “Whereas, the Senate of the United States, devoutly recognizing the Supreme Authority and just Government of Almighty God, in all the affairs of men and of nations, has, by a resolution, requested the President to designate and set apart a day for National prayer and humiliation. And whereas it is the duty of nations as well as of men, to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God, to confess their sins and transgressions, in humble sorrow, yet with assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon; and to recognize the sublime truth, announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord.”

Census Bureau
You are really beginning to piss me off big time. First I get a letter telling me the Census is coming, then I get the actual Census and now I get a postcard telling me I should have received it and I need to complete it and turn it back in.
First of all QUIT WASTING TAXPAYER MONEY! It asks me who lives in my residence on April 1, not being April 1 yet how can I turn it back in? What if someone moves in prior to April 1? What if I die? It seems stupid to me to answer the future when I am not a fortune teller.
Lets start with the pre Census letter. At the bottom there is a sentence that tells me to go to a website if I need help in english and 5 other languages. I recognize Spanish and I think probably Japanese/Chines and Vietnamese and I have no idea what the other languages are. This is America, we speak English, it is the official language, there is no need for any other language to be put on forms, my phone, etc.
Then the Census came with a half sheet blue letter. They say Census results are used to decide the number of representatives each state has in Congress. I know that is true, but I also believe they are looking to find areas where ACORN and SEIU can skew the next election cos we all know the Progressives have screwed over the Democrats. They try to make me feel sorry for the children, the elderly, and get my roads fixed and other local needs. My roads are in sorry shape from the harsh winter, I doubt me not completing the Census is gonna affect that. They also say the information is confidential. That ain't so, you can find the answer to every question on the form if you just know where to look.
They also say Federal law protects my privacy and keeps my answers confidential, again anyone can find this information if they know where to look, it is all over the internet. This information becomes public after 72 years. Why 72 years, is that when you expect most Census form completers will be dead and they won't know what you did with their information?
Now let's get to the Census. Why is there a bar code on my form? What kind of information is in that bar code? Why is the letter telling me about the Census come with half a dozen languages at the bottom but the Census only has English and Spanish?
It says to count the people living in the house, apartment, or mobile home. What if I live in a camp trailor, I dont own a home but I travel everywhere in my 5th wheel? Do I get counted or not? Why are they counting homeless people-they don't live in any of those choices? Again it is not APril 1 yet, how can I fill this out?
I am only answering question 1, you do not get my phone number because if you can't figure out how many people live here by my answer, you are really stupid and i won't answer the phone anyway. You don't need to know if i own or rent, again none of your business and you can look this up. You don't need to know my name, my sex, or birthdate, none of your business and it matters not in getting money for my area or getting representatives. If I have to tell you my race how come I don't have to tell you if I am a citizen or not?
I am sending my Census in today, I sure hope no one moves in or out before then.
