Scuttlebut 2008

 

Mrs. Claus and the elves are restless whispering and sharing some more bad news – Santa’s gone to the White House with the out of money blues

The “White House Mavericks,” Paulson, Pelosi, Dodd and Reid are hiding behind closed doors – playing dirty monopoly not attending to chores

Dennis Miller has written a new speech for Biden – so now dear Joe is jumping with joy he’s a free man – no more “hidin”

What to our wondering eyes should appear Mr. and Mrs.Obama are partying on Christmas Eve, it’s a thank you bash for Bill Ayers, I believe

Barack’s playing Santa spreading wealth, taxes and hope – each “little Acorn” gets an extra bonus for “getting out the vote.”

It’s said that Barack has a special gift for Rezko whose under the weather – it’s a get out of jail card, he’s sure to feel better. 

The lady Michelle is singing a new tune written by Obama’s chief strategist David Axelrod - “I’m Finally Proud of America” not a song to applaud

CNN and other Liberal News Buddies have enjoyed controlling Americans with crap they create – they orchestrated and wrote the 2008 raunchy debates

George and Laura are most happy to be packing for they’re tired of the trashing –Liberal News Media devoured them with all the‘Bush Bashing”

Well Americans it’s been a tough year and we’ve been abused and misused by the government “elite” - but Americans are good, they’re resilient and they’ll land on their feet

As this year draws to a close remember to use your voice don’t let anyone corrupt our USA – for God is alive and well regardless of what other may say!

Each man must for himself alone decide what is right and what is wrong, which course is patriotic and which isn't.  You cannot shirk this and be a man.  To decide against your conviction is to be an unqualified and excusable traitor, both to yourself and to your country, let men label you as they may.  ~Mark Twain

Of all the supervised conditions for life offered man, those under USA's constitution have proved the best.  Wherefore, be sure when you start modifying, corrupting or abrogating it.  ~Martin H. Fischer “May God Bless America – Each and Everyone.”

Thanks, But No Thanks Mr. Obama & Uncle Sam

Today as I listened to the news, it was one more day of gloom and doom. Like our fanny, everyone has an opinion on the spiraling economic recession. We hear, bail out, don’t bail out, help some, don’t help others, keep giving injections to the lending institutions, don’t help the Big 3, help the Big 3, but none of these experts answer the bottom line questions. 

To top it all off, Mr. Obama is flaunting his economic stimulus plan, which is one more reason he should not be leading our country. If anyone wants to research Mr. Obama’s misuse of our money, just check out his Senate record, the many government grants and piggy requests that have his name written all over them via his radical friends. 

One other example of poor leadership is his choice of the lady chosen for Homeland Security – hey, I live in Arizona and can personally state that although she’s a nice lady, she has about as much business in this position as “Miss Piggy.” Americans need someone who is qualified to protect our backside – she’ll be in charge of border patrol, Federal Emergency management, Secret Service and doesn’t have a track record worth two cents when it comes to our security. 

That’s what I keep trying to talk with Americans about – leadership qualifications aren’t based on who’s the nicest, the most eloquent speaker or color of skin.   

·        Why are we bailing anyone out – many Americans have already lost their savings, jobs and homes and no one is helping them?

·        Why are we helping some lending institutions and not others?

·        Will the taxpayers get the bail out money back and if so at what interest rate and where will that money go when it’s repaid – I bet we’ll never see it!

·        Why do we give institutions like AIG and Citibank one injection of money after another – what are they doing with our money?

·        Does anyone really know how to jumpstart our economy or is the bail out money just a band aid and not a permanent solution?

·        When will the government stop this exploratory surgery that’s inevitably going to devaluate our money?

·        Why didn’t the government pull in a team of the top economists to assist Americans during this economic recession?

·        Who is tracking our money that these institutions have received – how are they using our money?

·        When will the government stop with their injections and start correcting our immediate problems?  Such as making those responsible for our economic mess responsible. We need to set up a separate holding facility for those who have blatantly destroyed the American Dream.

Needless to say our list of questions would fill a book and no one seems to have an answer! Question for all Americans – can we fire these people in the White House and replace them with some good old American Boys and Girls who believe in their country, families and honest government?

What’s wrong with repealing the earmarks that were hidden in the first bail out bill?  

These earmarks only accentuate the reason Americans have lost their trust in their government. 

Reluctantly we agreed to go forward with the bail out package, but no one told us it would be stuffed full of earmarks. Pelosi, Frank, Dodd and Reid wonder why we don’t trust them or their gang. This is blatant misuse of tax payer’s dollars – surely someone will do more than smack a few hands.

When will it all end? Today Citibank receives another 20 billion dollar transfusion. What makes us think that they won’t be back holding their teacup out for more? 

What gives the Washington Elite the right to spend our money without supervision – both Republicans and Democrats have displayed their inability to make wise decisions and act in a responsible adult manner. 

I don’t know the answers to our economic problem, but neither does our government. When in doubt it is best to “Stop” “Look” and “Listen” – I think you’ll all agree that flying by the seat of our pants isn’t working. 

We need unbiased economists and legal counsel to create a sound recovery plan that gives us in detail the necessary steps that should be implemented to rebuild our weak economy. Nope, I don’t trust Uncle Sam as far as I can throw him and you can take that to the bank! “May God Bless America.”   Stop in an visit @ http://www.yourannie.com

Attn: Pelosi, Paulson, Reid and Dodd

 

It has been brought to our attention that you have spent half of the “bail out’ money.   Please quit holding your hand out – we’re tired of bailing you out. It’s time to put your best foot forward, if you have a best foot and give us an actual accounting of the 350 billion dollars you’ve spent thus far.

There’s plenty of reason to believe it wasn’t used for the homeowners or the middle class. It seems to me, you’ve once again put Americans at risk!

Dodd, Pelosi, Reed and  Paulson, you are employed by us (American people) and it appears that we need to place you on a 30 day plan or possibly can you

Paulson, you’ve got your nerve playing around with our money!   It’s time to step down from your cushy position as Treasury Secretary and let some one who is honest, qualified and places their country first take the reins.

You’re a disaster that’s already happened and we need to investigate your various money activities before you go. 

Pelosi you’re so far left of center that you probably suffer from migranes and amnesia. To have you in charge of our government and money is more than a little bit scary.  

Every time you open your mouth, I cover my ears, because what you say and do are entirely different.   Maybe you’ve worn out your welcome at the White House and it’s quite possible you should look for a new employer!

And dear Mr. Dodd, you are definitely joined at the hip with Freddie and Fannie – actually you and Mr. Obama have that claim to fame.

Overnight, you created two alien funds, which are actually pretty bogas, (1) the Housing Trust Fund, and (2) the Capital Magnet Fund. Tell us Mr. Dodd, who is the recipient of these two funds? Is it Mr. Obama and his community organizers?

Hate to bring it up Paulson, Pelosi, Dodd and Reid, but this AIG resurrection is a farse too – that will backfire on the taxpayers. 

Let’s see, correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe AIG received an 85 billion installments from us in September and than another installment for 37.8 billion the first part of October.    

So outside of the AIG’s freeze of 600 million dollars to their executives, how have they used the remainder of our monies?  We can’t hear you!

Didn’t AIG take their team to a special hideaway in Arizona spending over 343,000 of our bail out money to conduct a seminar for their financial planners? Hey get a grip, pitch a tent, rent a room at Pizza Hut, but quit spending tax payer’s dollars for their personal Tea Parties! 

Within months, they’ll be knocking at our door, looking for more free handouts; hopefully you’ll tell AIG we want our money back ASAP.   Why would anyone think they’re capable of restructuring and becoming a reputable institution again? Have you called for an audit, or a new business plan or an insight into their daily business affairs?

Did you have any binding agreement with the institutions that you’ve loaned our money to – did you insist on a new feasible business plan? What rate of interest are they paying us? 

What happens in case of default? In other words, was all this 650 billion handed out as gifts or is each recipient paying us back in the near future?

To all of those companies who have lined up at the White House asking for a fuel injection - get rid of their jets and other amenities, cut out the ridiculous corporate salaries and perks, restructure your  business, quit paying your ridiculous corporate salaries  and get a life, we’re tired of being the guinea pigs. 

Yesterday, our government representatives were fighting over saving the Big 3 – what’s there to think about… They have mismanaged their money for years, in need of a critical restructuring and they have the guts to fly to Washington in their own little personal jets for a pow-wow. 

Here’s what I think – let those who have mismanaged their businesses hitchhike, ride the bus or walk from now on. When they stick their grubby hands out for more, just say “no.” 

Pelosi, Paulson, Dodd and Reid, if by chance you remain in the White House after this scandal is over, remember America is getting its voice back and we’re watching every move you make.  You’ve had your chance and you blew it! 

America can’t restore its once strong foundation or recover from this economic crisis with the likes of you messing around in our government. 


“May God Bless Each and Everyone.”

What Change is Mr. Obama Talking About Now?

Mr. Obama, one question keeps raising its ugly head – what is this wonderful “change” that you kept mentioning in your campaign? Your famous last words during your acceptance speech, is finally America is ready to move forward with change – sounds good Mr. Obama.

How do Americans know which of your many changes is the final change that we’ll be able to live with, in the future?   Now ye ole friend Reverend Wright is surfacing and he like Michelle are finally acknowledging pride in our United States. Why do people like Wright and Michelle even bother hanging around if we’ve been such an embarrassment to them?   Michelle seems to have been living the good life in a 4.2 million dollar home and a fairly recent promotion – so what did we do to upset Michelle?

Mr. Obama, you’ve tried to give people the impression that this is a race thing and it’s not – it’s about character, reputation, track record, because it really doesn’t matter if you’re red, black, white or blue. America needs a man or woman who can bravely stand toe to toe with the Democrats and Republicans and restore our Nation to a strong foundation. 

What is the scoop with Reverend Wright – for years you frequented Trinity and listened to Reverend Wright. Then you started sidestepping the Wright issue; you said when the children were young it was impossible to attend Church regularly. 

Shortly after that you claimed to frequent Mr. Wright’s Church, stating that he was a dear friend.  When the news media put a little pressure on you and the burner got hot, you decided that Wright was no longer a friend and he was spewing horrible things from his mouth that you could not tolerate.

Now, headlines say Reverend Jeremiah Wright will be doing the honors at your inauguration and you have the guts to say this will start to mend the racial problems. Oops, me thinks race and foreign monies are what won you the position of President January 2009. If there is a racial problem, you’re the one to blame – not Americans. Haven’t you or your gang noticed recently that there are many, many great African Americans in our country? 

Race isn’t what Americans were questioning – it was your association with Reverend Wright (one black man) and with Ayers and other friends (mostly Caucasians.) So let’s get off the race kick, Mr. Obama – me thinks you doth protest too much.

Our problem with you is really about character and reputation – not being privy to either one; many Americans aren’t exactly comfortable with your leadership abilities! Here are but a few of our concerns at this time.

(1)    It’s a well known fact that approximately 40% of the US citizens don’t pay taxes at this time, so how in the world do you propose to give 95% a tax break, (2) Why did you pick Joe Biden as VP (he certainly has a tainted reputation and doesn’t appear to be the most honest person in the world, (3) Where do you expect to get all of these billions you’ve been talking about to jumpstart our economy – don’t tell me by taxing the corporate gang and business over 200,000 or is it 250,000, (4) What do you really know about foreign policy and how to protect our country? Tea parties aren’t an appropriate answer or response!

So you see, we’re more than a little bit tense about you leading our country, because during all of your campaign speeches you have changed your mind so many times in order to win the election – none of us know who you really are or what your plans are for our country, families and children.

As Always, Annie
