Help

-Would of fired off a blog earlier, but slowly recovering following the mass stampeed to get a pair of round ball shoes. It made Confederate Gen. R.E. Lee's troop raid of Gettyburg's shoe warehouses pale in comparison, plus the latter group was in a war for a couple of years. The gang going after Air Jorden gym shoes were like people filing into a pp voting booth establishment. I can only guess what the net sales at these stores were at the end of the day. At $180/pair maybe a third of the stampeeding herd paid full price, while the balance made a five finger discount and walk out In any case the inventory was purged.
- I wasn't in the melee per se, but just watching on the TV made me seriously ponder 1) were these folks human? 2)where did they get the green stamps from? 3) and if the mop was human, are we human still atop the food chain?
-Hey, have a Happy New Year and rest up. For we have a lot of work next year to retire pp to South Chicago, capture the senate, and send Mother Moron to her $10,000 per night villa in Hawaii permenmently.

Mexican Pissing Match Postponed Two Months

-A minuscule victory for pp indeed, plus it implodes in just two months. If this is the progress towards solving our nation's major financials, this nation's people are in for a long nuclear winter.
-What is happening in Iraq today, after pp removes the last of the combat troops, was predicted by most all military generals, most CTPR and most LDP, but the wannabe leader in the WH wanted it his way. I worry about the folks, guards and contractors in the Green Zone. Will pp pull a Nixon Type retreival as staged in Siagon ?
-New unemployment filings for last week was only 364,000. You guessed it. Down from a after-the-fact projection of 368,000. Let's see, the Bush Recession aka the Great Recession was over in June, 2009, so what is happening now?
-GDP 3Q11 growth projected to be 2.8% readjusted later in quarter to be 2.0%, slid in at only 1.8%.
Finally... the Chevy Volt is costing taxpayers ~$250,000 per pop. They sell for net ~$35K after we the taxpayers give a ~$10K rebate. And you late Christmas shoppers... you can get one or more for your family and friends for there is instant delivery by the USPS. Hold it! My mistake FedEx. Those other guy are going to be disbanded in March 2012.

Imaginary tax cuts and additional unemployment benefits

-It escapes me just what pp and the LDP are trying to with the title matter? It appears that they will be content to just kicking the can over two months in the next Gregorian calander year. Their hope and change deferred a few days, hoping and more change will be better next year is insane. The blame game doesn't move reality one iota.
-The $ 15+ T debt and deficits will still be there come 2012, the only thing for sure is that it will grow like weeds in my yard, if nothing is done to prevent it.
-The Clinton party is over. Cutting spending across the board works in ever household that employs it. Why not the federal government?
-The great EU financial solution of yesterday is a myth. With only one country (Germany) of the 17 country combine, in Euros only, is like an inverted equilaterial triangle, the point of maximum pressure is where the sides come together at the bottom, that being Germany. Hopefully our jockey isn't going to bail out the EU ? With what?
-The only way to make the western world debt disappear in total, is a fate worse than failure, that being printing more money by the semi-loads, that drives up inflation like a rocket from the Cape. The results would be horrible.
-Scientist are saying the Shroud of Turin is real. The LDPs of the world will have something to say about this re-revelation.
-New hate crime in Amish country! Huh? Yep, cutting beards, as a punishment is being alleged by some to be a hate crime. What next?

To be or not to be!

-That is the question pp must decide and soon. So far he has elected to hid in the shadows the NV gunslinger, and Mother Morom's dress or pants suit. This middle class payroll tax break avg. $1,000 a year to a middle class family is small indeed (furthermore it's like stealing money from the SS piggy bank which results in the demise of another life net sooner). Plus to extending the unemployment benefits into infinity just digs the hole out in front of the WH infinity deeper, especially if there are no spending cuts to offset. Between the WH lack of leadership to the pissing match in congress we are heading into a southern Euro zone, i.e. PIIGS Plus nations of Europe sooner than later. Is this what the WH wants? Well that's what pp's handlers from Chicago apparantly want? Skating by till next year solves absoletely nothing. Its like a death row inmate getting a stay of execution, only to reach his or her maker a few days later. Reality does not take a holiday.

Thursday's Debate

-The CTPR debate last evening was the best ever. FNN did an excelent job coordinating.
-My wife was at the controls and she maintained a stready as she goes maneauver for the two hour. I think I have a convert for watching debates.
-Those candidates' who focused their responses on the current resident of the WH did well. Infighting was effective when employed.
-Early tallies for 1, 2, 3 are Gingrich, Romney and Paul. I thought Perry for third. The second hour for Paul was past his bed time. The others will fad on or by 01.03.12.
-Looks like Congress came to grips to keep the Treasury doors open 'till September 2012.
-pp will cave and sign off on the extension of the employee payroll tax holiday and extend unemployment benenfits for a year by swallowing the CTPR's Keystone pipe line pill. This will bode well for the CTPR in 2012.
-A recent AP poll shows pp re-election odds at 50-50 ??? His handling of the economy reflects a 39% approval while 60% disapprove. One wonders who are the 39%..."Occupy Wall St" across the country mop? Corzine types? One receiving a gov't pay check at the first of each month, for not working?

Chased up a tree again!

-Earl's boy got Dirty Harry and the LDP up a tree again with a House approved job bill. Has most things in bill that pp has been campaiging on. The big exception there is a provision that really start shovel ready construction by the thosuands immediately. Release the "Hold" on the Canadian to Gulf Coast oil pipe line NOW ! It also pits the EPA against the big labor who needs the jobs badly.
-Corzine to follow the ex-govener to the big house by mid-year next.
-pp and mamaO flew to Ft Bragg today to greet some of the returning warriers from Iraq and to direct them to the nearest unemployment districts.
-Perhaps this is the reason the US Postal Service put a "HALT" on overhauling this service until next year. The Postal Service will deficit spend $18B this fiscal year more than they receive from selling stamps. 80% of Postal service cost is labor and their entitlements
-Whatever the WH or the BLS report on new employment, new unemployment, the following ratio still holds. A 4:1 ratio people seeking jobs, to job availability remains constant.
-When McDonalds stock continues to ramp upward, and manufacturing companies stock has a tough time from sucking air, something fundimentally is wrong with this picture. Before pp and his "x" number of Czars appeared on the stage, LDP economists said we need to be a service based economy and not manufacturing (big labor sat on their thumbs, or continued to shake down onging companies for wage and benefits). Proof: Just look around for your self. We are in a global economy...

All I want for Christmas by pp.

-pp begging Iran to return his spy toy for Christmas, correction pp's winter solistic. Lots of luck!
-Putin seem to has all kinds of problems of late, loosing control of elections, problems with nationwide protestors, has MP on his case, and a big 6'-8" Russian billionaire who wants the same job as Putin.
-Markets are down and continue to occiliate around zero grow. The EU and euro nations like a big anchor. They are having the same problems as the LDP in this country with controlling spending.
-Germany now calling the shots in Europe, the jockey's qualitative easing ain't gonna happen in Deutchland and it sure is not in the rest of the socialist states.
-Not so fast about the US economy gaining steam as unemployment claims dropped to nine month low, but this is the Christmas season. Spending usually goes up even in a tight economy during this time of year. One indicator that is brothersome is the credit card sales far out stripping the debit card purchases which on the surface is not good.
-Update: In my township, negotations with the Police department... agreed also to a three year pay freeze, and are participating in paying a % of their healthcare and pension just like the Fire/EMS signed up last week. This is what Gov. K wanted for the whole state.
-Earl's boy hanging tough against pp and the LDP on extensions of employee payroll (SS)tax cuts and unemployment benefits if the LDP and pp sign off on a job producing Canadain to N.O, refinery center.

pp dodged another war.

-The Pentagon reported earlier in the week, the loss of electronic control of a highly secret recon stealth drone over NE Iran. Officals reported the craft would not crash or self distruct. Most likely will make a soft landing when it runs out of fuel. Option given pp 1)Send in a chopper group to retreive the drone. 2)destory the drone by sending in a A-117. 3) send in a chopper group, with special forces to destroy the drone. All options focus to preclude the craft from falling into enemy hands. pp chose door 4) do nothing for fear above action could cause a war with Iran *. I suppose if the downed drone were in Pakistan he would not hestate
-So early on Thursday Iran puts the captured drone, in one piece, on exhibit. Iran doesn't have the capability to reverse engineer the drone for replication, but Russia and China do and will. Iran will receive a generous finders' fee from somebody.
- But I guess that's what Nobel Peace Prize winners do?
-* There have been and still are many covert actions ongoing inside Iran by western resources. Taking the risk to retrieve or to destroy a US asset in remote NE Iran takes a leader and not a reader. (the latter part of sentence borrowed from Herman Cain).

What a day!

-Do you realize, that if current trends in the pre-spring training poll tallies continue, we could have two former professors dueling for the Chief CEO slot of the land, come the World Series time in Nov 2012. Gingrich (history), pp (Constitutional Law). Good grief Charley Brown.
-Camel Herder testifing today before Congress on his "lost knowledge" of Ops Fast & Furious (either he is incompetent or flat out lying) Others will fall on the swore before the CH, but in the end... CH is toast.
-Citizen Corzine testifing today before Congress about his part in the demise of the of MF Global and what the hell happen to investors $1.2B? The name of the former company gives no cover for Corzine.
-Another really inportant issue on Congress plate today: 1) has to do with the EPA control of dust from the nation's farmland.
-No judgement has be rendered, that I am aware, on the EPA control of methane emmissions from cow farts and beltching at feed lots. What's next local taverns? No way! EPA goes for big stationary targets like... Octoberfest! pp last visit to Cincinnati was his last if that happens. It may in any case.
-Seems as though, the WH has backed the wrong horse in the Egyptian Derby for controlling party. I get the funny impression that case will be replicated in Libyan horse race also, a trend through out the Arab Spring? What's pp to do, he said he was sorry for all previous US action in his 2009 Tour, they ain't listening.
-Walter Williams' columnist, sums up my thoughts on US's fate: "prospects are dim for a society that make mascots of the unproductive and condems the productive".

Only in California

-Gov. Jerry Brown D-CA, behind closed party doors with unions (no CTPR allowed) came up with a remedy to close the states' hugh deficts, only $3.7B this fiscal year. Strategy is to by-pass the CTPRs by getting 500M signitures on a petition by 2Q12 go directly to the people on election day 2012. Increase taxes on individuals making >$250K/yr by 1 %, 3 % on those earning $300K to 500K, and those >500K 2%. Increase sales tax to collect $7 B, plus close loopholes in state corporate tax code and spend $1.2B on renewable energy*. Here are some additional spending cuts that will go over well with CA taxpayers: shorter school year, cut allowances to state universities by untold millions, cut child care and services to disabled. Not withstanding all the above CA faces a $13B shortfall in the next fiscal year. You get some idea how deep the hole really is.
-*Then you have the EPA and greenpeople out in CA. also petitioning to close the remaining two nuclear reactors mox schnell, because what happened in Japan could happen in CA. The operative word is "could". No feasibility study suggests same. These two units generate 16% of the states electrical energy. If you add up all the electrical energy in CA. generated by solar and wind, one winds up with a net negative amount of energy created. The latter generates 1/4 of the 16% generated by the two nuclear stations. Consideration was given to the fact solar power is only generated when the sun shines and the wind turbines work when the wind blows, but from observation there is a lot of wind in CA. This maneauver, if sucessful, would put an even greater operating burden on CA's corporate and population. Reality check: just more corporate companies will fold up their tents, or move to other states, more likely to foreign lands. More people will be added to the unemployment lines, greater deficits and the wheel goes round and round.

#300 Blog...

-You know what annoys me, all those LDP fat cats, who before a mic or TV camera state they should pay their fair share of tax. They admit they are filthy rich and should be taxed more. Starting with Buffett, no not the parrot-head, but Warren and his ilk. Why don't CTPRs set up a TV slot for all channels to view the "signing of checks" by the types above. The Red Room at the WH would be the setting, before pp on a throne, surounded by his Czars with the Jockey with a bushel basket at pp right side. Minimum check amount would be a million dollars, with two billion checks garnering the gold medallion. Just a bronze, no silver, but gold metal madallion with a profile of pp embossed would be awarded to the approporate giver.
-Meanwhile pp, would cut all the socialism BS, and free the shackles of this great country's Consitution. It might be appropriate to send a copy of all 85 documents of the Federalist Papers, the precursor of the US Constitution to pp. But pp doesn't need these documents, for he is well aware of the effort put forth by John Jay,to be First Chief US Supreme Court, Alexander Hamilton ,to be first US Treasurer and James Madison, future fourth US President, since pp is and expert on the Constitution Law, since he was a professor of such, at the University of Chicago before becoming Ill. State Senator and part time US Senator from Ill, before becoming a nonresident and part time President of the US.

Mathematics is the only pure science..

-Yesterday both pp and the Zipper attended the same gathering. Zip got up first to speak. He said during his spiel, the most honest words he has ever said, "This economy is lousy." or words to that affect.
-Staggering to the mic, pp continued his standard stump speech...unemployment rate dropped from 9.0% to 8.6% and 140,000 new jobs created last month adding to the millions already employed. Progress has been slow, but now Congress must improve a small piece of my American Worker Bill...extend the 2% tax break to each working American and to extend the unemployment benefits...forever? No hint as to how this "handup" will be paid for. pp concluded, Congress has to pass this opportunity, especially at this time of year. Hinting the 1% ers move about their world as if nothing is wrong, which includes him, I guess.

-Fact check: The Zip was absoletly correct "this economy is lousy", but he did not go on to explain the pain we are experiencing is self induced by pp's policies. pp overstated the number of new job created at 140,000 Vs 120,000 stated by BLS earlier in the day. The reduction in the Rate of Unemployed 9.0% to 8.6% was attributable in part to new hires above, and the fact 315,000 people were dropped from the BLS rolls. Nothing was said about the seasonally adjusted 402,000 new filing for unemployment benefits. There are some 13 M (more like 15 to 17M) people out of work. As far as the 2% tax cut for working American is taken from the Social Security's employee's share, which mean this fund will crash sooner.
-Mathamaics is the only true science, but that excludes inside the I-495 beltway.

220V jolt for EU

-The Fed printing presses rolling again to bail out the PIIGS in the EU.
-Meanwhile the "Occupy Wall Street" mob stationed outside where pp is campaigning in NY. You would think these locations would be flop houses? But Oh No! Attendees pay a minimum of $1,000 cover charge and $35,000 for sit down dinner each.
-What must the 99%ers think, the fat cats inside are LDP 1%ers. The CTPR party doesn't have a monopoly of fat cats, now do they? Duplicity at its finest.
