H/T Ken! This is a very interesting video presentation. It is well worth your viewing attention when you’ve got the time to listen for 13 minutes.
He’s spent $38 in gas – in two months! See how, and see what Bob thinks of his new Volt, his fire insurance, and what it’s like to stay home most of the time! For more information, go to http://www.obamavolt2012.com/.
If anyone actually believes the current Administration’s priority is putting Americans back to work think of this and the keystone pipeline!
This one should be tough for the supporters of the current regime to swallow… AND it comes from ABC NEWS!
The lead-in with Obama promising jobs in the U.S. by improving our infrastructure is so typical of all his promises! Our tax dollars are at work – for CHINA!!!
I hope all the unemployed see this and cast their votes accordingly in 2012!
H/T Lee!
An analysis by the Joint Economic Committee and the House Ways & Means Committee staff estimates up to 16,500 new IRS personnel will be needed to collect, examine and audit new tax information mandated on families and small businesses as part of the implementation of Obamacare.
In addition to more complicated tax returns, families and small businesses will be forced to reveal further tax information to the IRS, provide proof of ‘government approved’ health care and submit detailed sales information to comply with new excise taxes.
If my recent experience with the IRS is any indication of its incompetence as a whole, we are in a world of hurt!
My father died last year. I filed his income tax in April of 2011, which had a refund due. In June, it occurred to me that no refund had been received, so here begins my adventure with the IRS.

Thanks for the email Ava!
The character of any man is defined by how he treats his mother as the years pass… need I say more about this person below other than there is no character, no integrity but there is a ton of attitude and arrogance that defines his shallow past and hollow future….

Why the US was downgraded
Thanks Pam! The following comes from “Investment Blog Watch“. I double checked their figures with the ‘Government Printing Office’ (GPO). The numbers are similar. See page 146.
* U.S. Tax revenue: $2,170,000,000,000
* Fed budget: $3,820,000,000,000
* New debt: $ 1,650,000,000,000
* National debt: $14,271,000,000,000
* Recent budget cuts: $ 38,500,000,000
Let’s remove a few zeros and pretend it’s a household budget:

Uninsured cars off road
Hat Tip Lee! Recently Dallas passed an ordinance stating that if a driver is pulled over by law enforcement and is not able to provide proof of insurance, the car is towed.
To retrieve the car after being impounded, they must show proof of insurance to have the car released. This has made it easy for the City of Dallas to remove uninsured cars.
Shortly after the “No Insurance” ordinance was passed, the Dallas impound lots began to fill up and were full after only nine days. 80 + % of the impounded cars were driven by illegals.
Not only must they provide proof of insurance to have their car released, they have to pay for the cost of the tow, a $350 fine, and $20 for every day their car is kept in the lot.
Accident rates are going down and… Dallas’ solution gets uninsured drivers off the road WITHOUT making them show proof of nationality.
Wonder how the ACLU or the Justice Department will get around this one.
Just brings tears to my eyes.
GO Dallas !
