Today we witnesses how a belief, that one's life savings will be their retirement nest egg, has been shattered by actions causing the dilution of the value of their assets. Many are calling the actions bringing about such decline as selfish greed, stealing, criminal and evil.

Now we are faced with the dilution of a belief, that is held and practiced by cultures throughout the natural world, that marriage is an investment, even an asset, as a sanctified union of a man and a woman into one. What name do we place on actions that dilute beliefs?

How can one support the dilution and devaluation of an institution who many hold in higher regard than money or their savings, who have come to believe that "for better and worse" as "man and wife" goes beyond mans law and is core to the progress of life in the natural world? How can one deny nature's design and purpose? Who dares claim that their solution is better than nature?

The argument of discrimination and civil rights is being used to promote the devaluation of marriage. That the benefits are being denied to same sex relations. That is a red herring argument as many states allow "reciprocal benefits" to those who live together in a same sex relation. With no denial of benefits, What can be driving those to want to steal a belief from others. Can it be an insatiable need to experience the joy of traditional marriages without the pain, challenges. Maybe its just simple greed.

Like many I choose not to sit as an idle spectator and watch a inviolable belief be stolen from the many that have invested their body, soul and spirit, to build value, tradition and honor in their marriage. How will these "traditionalists" react when another one of their assets loses value. One must wonder.

Now here's a bail out plan that works!

NO to the $85,000,000,000.00 bailout of AIG.
Instead, give the $85,000,000,000 to America in 'We Deserve It Dividend'.

To make the math simple, let's assume there are 200,000,000 bonafide U.S. Citizens 18+.

Our population is about 301,000,000 ± counting every man, woman and child. So 200,000,000 might b e a fair stab at adults 18 and up..

So divide 200 million adults 18+  into $85 billon that equals $425,000.00.

My plan is to give $425,000 to every person 18+ as a 'We Deserve It Dividend'.

Of course, it would NOT be tax free.
So let's assume a tax rate of 30%.
Every individual 18+ has to pay $127,500.00 in taxes.
That sends $25,500,000,000 right back to Uncle Sam.

But it means that every adult 18+ has $297,500.00 in their pocket.
A husband and wife has $595,000.00.
What would you do with $297,500.00 to $595,000.00 for your family?

Pay off your mortgage - housing crisis solved.
Repay college loans - what a great boost to new grads
Put away money for college - it'll be there
Save in a bank - create money to loan to entrepreneurs.
Buy a new car - create jobs
Invest in the market - capital drives growth
Pay for your parent's medical insurance - health care improves

Remember this is for every adult U S Citizen 18+  including the

folks who lost their jobs at Lehman Brothers and every other

company that is cutting back. And of course, for those serving in

our Armed Forces.

If we're going to re-distribute wealth let's really do it...instead of

trickling out a puny $1000.00 ( 'vote buy' ) economic incentive that

is being proposed by one of our candidates for President.

If we're going to do an $85 billion bailout, let's bail out every adult

U S Citizen 18+!

As for AIG - liquidate it.
Sell off its parts.
Let American General go back to being American General.
Sell off the real estate.
Let the private sector bargain hunters cut it up and clean it up.

Here's my rationale. We deserve it and AIG doesn't.
Sure it's a crazy idea that can 'never work.'
But can you imagine the Coast-To-Coast Block Party!
How do you spell Economic Boom?

I trust my fellow adult Americans to know how to use the $85

Billion 'We Deserve It Dividend' more than I do the geniuses at

AIG or in Washington DC.

And remember, this plan only really costs $59.5 Billion because
$25.5 Billion is returned instantly in taxes to Uncle Sam.

Ahhh...I feel so much better getting that off my chest.

You don't want to even hear what I think about the stupid mortgage

companies that loaned out billions of dollars to people who they

knew had no way of paying back the loans, with both sides of the

equation interested in one thing...fast money.
But it didn't work, and now we're supposed to bail out those idiots

too???

Kindest personal regards,
If you're not having fun.....
...you're not doing it right!

The US Government took over fannie & freddie and the democrats are upset that they had nothing to do with it. Liberals have always wanted to take over private industries and companies but concentrated on health care and didnt even care about mortgages.

The government did good to prevent a total failure and yes it is a necessary evil via a taxpayer bailout.

Poor libs are smitten that they let this one get by but wasnt freddie and fannie operated by liberals Daniel Mudd & Richard Syron. "This is not a time to be panicking about this. These are viable, strong institutions," Sen. Christopher Dodd, D-Conn., said at a Capitol Hill news conference.

I just checked the abc site and my post has been published. Cant say if this post had anything to do with it so I wont but the facts below still remain valid except that the blog post has been published.

I tried to post a rebuttle to the Sarah Palin attacks on ABC News Correspondent Jake Tapper's blog. Would you believe it, a first time post was flagged as spam. Censored blog, how elite media-ish. I present below, the unedited blog posting that got listed as spam.
===========
Everything that Obama promises he will do Sarah Palin has already done!
Clean up government corruption, raise taxes on the oil industry, increase the state coffers, improved education & raised the standard of living for her constituents.
Everythig that Obama hopes to be Sarah Palin has already done while raising a family.
Obama camp will try to claim that she is agreeing with his platform. NO, she doesnt agree that talking about change brings change, she does change. She walks the walk while obama is still talking the talk.
BTW- she already has experience at commanding a real army of soldiers that respect her. She is the law enforcement official in charge of protecting a valuable oil producing propoerty located within the grasp of a world superpower intent on increasing its energy supply holdings. Sorry Putin, you are going to have to deal with Sarah Palin now.
Obama surrounds himself with world class brains while Palin gets in the trenches, rolls up her sleeves and gets it done. Bet she NEVER votes present.
Soon every world leader will be want to be in the presence of a world class person and the next vice president and mccains presidential successor. Brains, saavy and beauty. Hollywood will be swooning all over this ticket.
Can we all say bye, bye, bye obama?
============

The current attack plan at the Dem convention will be to portray McCain, rich, elite and out of touch with regular Americans.
The democrats have decided to get back to the basics of class warfare by resorting to the Karl Marx's Manifesto of the Communist Party.
Chapter I - BOURGEOIS AND PROLETARIANS.
Paragraph 1 - The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.
The Manifesto of the Communist Party was written in 1848.
So much for change. Another lie.

What is next? Just refer to the manifesto.
Chapter II - PROLETARIANS AND COMMUNISTS
In what relation do the Communists stand to the proletarians as a whole?
The Communists do not form a separate party opposed to the other working-class parties.
They have no interests separate and apart from those of the proletariat as a whole.
They do not set up any sectarian principles of their own, by which to shape and mold the proletarian movement.
The immediate aim of the Communists is the same as that of all other proletarian parties: Formation of the proletariat into a class, overthrow of the bourgeois supremacy, conquest of political power by the proletariat.

Definition of  proletarian - A member of the working class (not necessarily employed)

Then What? Again the manifesto instructs.
III -- SOCIALIST AND COMMUNIST LITERATURE
Owing to their historical position, it became the vocation of the aristocracies of France and England to write pamphlets against modern bourgeois society. In the French Revolution of July 1830, and in the English reform agitation, these aristocracies again succumbed to the hateful upstart.

Need I say nothing is new, there is no change. Democrats want to head back to the future.

How many homes does McCain own? Even I know the answer. 0.
Confirm it at http://www.politico.com. The trap was set and Obama stepped right in it. Too late, he opened his mouth.
Simply consider the nature of the beast, study its habits and set a trap. obama will step in it. again and again and again. he cant hep it, its in lawyer training and race baiting/class warfare genes.

This is going to be easier then we thought but we shouldn't gloat. McCain just needs to keep on doing what he is doing.
Set it up and let Obama step in it.

Click here to see the Huffinton Post story on General Wesly Clark being dissed by the democrats and asked by Obama's people not to attend the Democratic National Convention. Nice to see the democrats practicing what Obama preaches - when you are done with em toss under the bus. First grammy, then the reverend Wright, then the realtor Resko. Wonder where the American people falls in the list. 

Goes around comes around. Must make Clark proud to be a democrat.

With the civil service pay cut order by the governator and a $15.2 billion deficit looming is there anyone out there taking bets that Califonia may be on the verge of increaseing taxes to increase cash flow before filing for bankruptcy?
Sung to the tune of the Beach Boys "Good Vibrations".
Ahhh I love the way we hand out rights to those that whom we say we care
and life for illegal aliens is just not fair
Ahhh I hear the sounds of wanting to increase your neighbors pay
by increaing taxes on you each and every day
We got those good intentions, she's giving me good intentions.
Raing taxes with good intentions, have no cash but good intentions...
La, la la la la, la la land. La, la la la la, la la land.

Obama not only started negative campaigning he has always been a negative campaigner.
Not against opponents but going totally negative against the United States.

Obama Policies:
Energy Policy: Inflate your tires while I inflate your taxes and energy prices. I cant help you but I can make sure to pay off my special interests supporters.
 
Coming Together Policy: 1. Start by dissing your grandma even though she raised you and sent you to all the finest schools that money can buy. 2. Then diss anyone that has a morally guided life, because you cannot get them to change thier minds. 3. Vigourously diss anyone who disagrees with me, cuz "Who needs that kind of democracy?" 4. Keep everyone contiously high or addicted to something, that way everyone will know "Whos your daddy?"

Foreign Policy: Buy foreign oil at 2 billion barrels a day. Sending US taxpayer money overseas will make everyone love us or at least like us a lot.

Here is how KHNR listeners in Hawaii celebrates www.independencedayatmaunaluabay.org

Billy went about doihg his busines in the outhouse and when he was done he noticed that a $10 bill fell out of his pocket and into the heap below. He could see his $10 bill and could very well reach it to get it out.

Instead Billy went to Bob, borrowed $50 and Bob watched as Billy threw the $50 in the hole with the $10.
Bob exclaimed, "Billy, why in the world did you borrow $50 then throw it in the hole?"
Billy calmly replied, "You don't think Im going to stick my hand in there for only $10".

Guess if it aint worth it, make it worth it.

Can you really give more than 100%?
Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give you 110%. My friend Marsha sent me the following email that seriously questions anyone promising more than 100% effort.

She asks "What makes us achieve a mere 100%? How about achieving 103 or 118%?"

Here is a mathematical foundation that defines how it is possible ot achieve over 100%.
If:
A= 1, B= 2, C= 3, D=4, E=5, F= 6, G= 7,  H= 8, I= 9, J= 10, K= 11, L= 12, M= 13, N=14,
O=15, P=16, Q=17, R=18, S=19, T= 20, U=21, V= 22, W= 23,  X= 24,  Y=25,  Z= 26

Then:
K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11 +14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

and:
H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

with a good:
 
A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

But see what you can do wtih:
B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

and:
A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%

Now we can see that while Knowledge, Hard Work and Attitude will get you to 100%, it takes B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T and A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G to deliver better than 100%! 

Even with a link that lets me see the latest terrorist activities around the world

I remain hopeful that the global mainstream media organizations continue to keep the huddled masses completely in the dark to remain like myself - blissfully ignorant

This is a listing of fraud driven by Media. Please feel free to comment and add to the list.

Global warming - media backs the assertion that industry is responsible for the temperature rise on earth (and on mars). What will those global warming zealots do once they discover the effects the sun has on the earth's climate.

Faking Hate crimes - the gay community has elevated "faking it " to satisfy political needs and wants (Even prostitutes are honest enough to admit they do what they do for profits). Certain media organizations do not care if false hate crime cases are true or not, as long as it sounds good.

Lets see those white flag democrats try to put a time limit on baseball and see where that gets them.
Can you imagine a bullpen manager saying to his player and the fans that win or lose the game is over so I can go home to watch American Idol. lets throw out the bums

Now that congress is trying to hold US soldiers in Iraq fiscal hostages, it may be a good time for Bush to implement his plan to have Iraq (and maybe even Kuwait) pay their fair share of the cost of freedom from Iraq oil revenues. Once that is done congress will be neutered and hopefully they continue to pass meaningless feel good bills like:
1. A clean air act that makes it illegal to release over 1,000,000 balloons into the air at the same time.
2. Carbon dioxide reduction act forbidding arguments to last longer than half an hour, unless the argument is in favor of meaningless acts intending to combat global warming.
3. Truthful testimony is only relevent in cases that validate the emotional appeal of the loudestr, any other truhtful testimony is circumstantial or hearsay evidence.
4. Taxes are only imposed on the rich and all conservatives are rich. Liberals are wealthy not rich.
