We are...Penn State?
Oh, how have you fallen,
o' thou Penn State?
Thine sleep is at hand!
The fall is too deep
and the abyss is too frightening
(the imagery; painfully unconscionable).
There is nothing to hold on to.
when the decay of a community is so profound
that it is unable to heal in generations lifetime.
It's too late for honor to be preserved.
The darkest deed upon a child can never be overlooked.
Penn State football you must now cry
and you must now sleep.

TO THE ABSURD!
Isn’t it mind-boggling, absurd, how out of control the spin is on who is to blame for the downgrading of America’s credit? On July 14 S&P, who downgraded us, made it perfectly plain that the downgrade was coming if there wasn’t at least $4 trillion in enforceable cuts in deficit spending. Everyone knew that. But, the question is this: why wasn’t the recent debt ceiling debate revolving around those numbers?
Republicans put forth a proposal for the Cut, Cap, and Balance Act, which cut 5.8 trillion over 10 years that would have satisfied S&P’s requirements. What did the Democrats do in return? They table the bill in the Senate, which means: it’s still there waiting to be debated, on the Senate floor.
The debt ceiling deal that was recently signed into law, to save us from default, which it did, was on a dollar for dollar bases. In other words: the debt ceiling would be raised by some $2.4 trillion, while spending cuts would be introduced at $2.4 trillion over the next 10 years. See, mom, how’s that for balance? The Democrats cried foul and said that the Tea Party was holding America hostage! The Republicans weren’t too happy either because the deal was nothing more than an abrupt halt to the spending of money we didn’t have. We raised the debt ceiling another $2.4 trillion, but we cut spending by $2.4 trillion. Nothing gained and nothing lost. But, those numbers are outside of what is already owed, $14.something trillion. Nothing was done about that number. Again, remember, that all the while; Washington knew about the S&P requirement of a $4 trillion cut in deficit spending.
This is politics in the 21st century: who can lie the best? Who can deceive the American public the best? Clearly, if in the voter’s mind, there is still any doubt about who is to blame for this downgrading of America’s credit rating…Well, I would say that the Democrats are the best liars.
One more thing about the Cut, Cap, and Balance Act; over at Wikipedia it states, concerning the bill, the following:
Cuts in spending
The bill proposed to reduce total spending by $111 billion in FY 2012. The savings were divided as follows:
Reduce non-security discretionary spending below 2008 levels, which saves $76 billion.
$35 billion cut to non-veterans, non-Medicare, non-Social Security mandatory spending.
Defense budget at President's level.
The point being this: for next year, 2012, the election year, the cuts in spending would not touch Social Security, Medicare, or veterans pensions. Discretionary spending is everything else. Remember: this is a Conservative proposal that the Tea Party went along with. But, President Obama; wasn’t his message, about the Republican’s policies, always about wanting to cut into Social Security? And wasn’t he always scaring the elderly about the Social Security being not sent? Aren’t his speeches always about wanting to raise taxes because he doesn’t want the poor, the elderly, and the middle-class to carry the burden of America’s economic woes? He wants the rich to pay their “fair share.”
He says the rich should be taxed. But, he defines rich at those who make 200,000 dollars per year. I mean, isn’t 200,000 a year, in this day and age, considered to be middle-class?
I mean, 200,000 a year, I don’t think that’s rich. That’s small business, isn’t it?
So, the elderly won’t have their Social Security touched by Republican policies, the middle-class; President Obama wants to tax, and the poor, well, the poor are the poor. They don’t pay anything.
Isn’t it clear who is spinning the truth?
There’s a reason why the liberals are called liberals. There’s a reason why they’re considered to be “inclusive” of all kinds. That’s because they are!
Including, the father of all lies: the Devil.

THE DEAL'S WINNERS AND LOSERS
Winner: The deal is a victory for the Tea Party.
Winner: House Speaker Boehner is a winner because he listened, probably against his will, to the Tea Party, and allowed their stance to shape the debate.
Winner: President Obama's announcement of the deal was a small victory for him, personally, because he handled the announcement graciously.
Loser: Senate Leader Harry Reid is a loser in the deal because the Democrats didn't get anything they wanted. Well, perhaps some spending cuts in defense, but with the pull out of Iran and Afghanistan , what does that really mean?
Winner: House Speaker Boehner is a winner because he listened, probably against his will, to the Tea Party, and allowed their stance to shape the debate.
Losers: The Democrats are the losers, in this debate, because they had absolutely no leverage. They lost the House in the mid-terms, and this deal is the result of that loss. That's what happens when you try to govern from the far left. Eat your peas and don't cry!
Losers: Bill O'Reily, Charles Krauthammer, and anyone else who agreed with them last week when both were pleading/criticizing the Tea Party for being extreme, and for trying to get them to vote for the Boehner bill that was killed in the Senate.
Winners: All conservatives are winners because the Democrats killed Boehner's bill in the Senate on Saturday. LOL! Pure Genius!

Winners: All conservatives are winners because the Democrats killed Boehner's bill in the Senate on Saturday. LOL! Pure Genius!
A LITTLE MORE DETAILS:
The president, the Democrats, and the politics as usual Republicans had no choice but to adhere to the stance of the Tea Party, because the credit rating agencies have practically mandated a $4 trillion reduction in deficit spending. That's the whole story right there. There was no way around that, and the only ones fighting for anything near that type of fiscal responsibility was the Tea Party.
Every deal, except for the Cut, Cap, and Balance Act, was not even close to what the credit rating agencies had demanded. A whole month of trying to get around the "truth" of the situation with bogus deals and a lot of posturing from the Democratic side of aisle was like a big deception ad.
This victory for the Tea Party is something they need to accept, and then build on their caucus when the election cycle comes around, again, in 2012. This fiscal responsibility movement is only going to get stronger.
STATING THE OBVIOUS
As part of the deal, President Obama got his way by getting the deal to go beyond 2012, and the presidential election. That is an empty victory for him because he's a one-term president, in my mind, so that part of the deal doesn't mean anything.
IF YOU'RE A FISCAL CONSERVATIVE, YOU'RE A FISCAL CONSERVATIVE!
If the Tea Party caucus does any moaning about cuts in defense spending; the only question to be asked is this: are you a fiscal conservative or not? You cried about the out of control spending from the start, and I agreed with the argument, but you don't get to start crying about what gets cut because that's hypocrisy. Everybody is going to feel the cuts except for Social Security.
I don't care what anyone says, Social Security is not being cut. That is truly an entitlement. People paid into that system and it affects our elderly and those who really do need "social security."
Again, everyone: EAT YOUR PEAS!

An Open Letter to the President of the United States of America
Dear Mr. President,
What the hell are you doing, you idiot?
This whole debt ceiling debate/deal has to revolve around what the credit agencies are saying. The "deal" has to conform to what the credit rating agencies are saying. What are the credit rating agencies saying?
"S&P raised the threat of a downgrade August 2nd by declaring that raising the debt limit alone might not be enough. It wanted to see an enforceable agreement to cut $4 trillion over 10 years to affirm the triple-A rating."
There's only one plan out there that fits that criteria, and that's the Cut, Cap, and Balance Act. That bill calls for cutting deficits by a steep $5.8 trillion over a decade, capping spending and passing a balanced-budget amendment.
That bill takes this whole debate past next years election cycle. Mr. President, you won't have to worry about the debate interfering with your presidential campaign. But, you still don't like this bill because it makes the government reign in spending. That is against the Democrat's philosophy. OK, fine, Mr. President. How about a short term bill? No! Because that would interfere with your re-election efforts.
Well, what should we do Mr. President? Because each and every long term proposal has to meet the $4 trillion debt slashing requirement over the next 10 years. You won't touch a short term deal and we know why. And you won't touch a long term deal...because?
Because you're a loser, you idiot!
You are the poorest excuse of a minority winning the White House. You should be ashamed of yourself. You're so stupid that you thought you could come into power and implement your far left liberal philosophy? How stupid can you be? You're worse than Jesse Jackson, the rhyming politician. All talk with no substance. The difference between you and Jesse Jackson is that you don't rhyme your speeches, the end result is the same: you're not saying anything!
You are a one-term president! You have no chance of winning re-election. So, with the time you have left; do the right thing and get the Cut, Cap, and Balance Act passed. It's the only plan that saves America from losing it's AAA credit rating, you FOOL!
I call you a fool because all you do is lie and manipulate.
John 8:44
"You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies."
And, in case you don't understand what I'm saying, let me make it perfectly clear: THE SPIRIT OF THE LIVING GOD REBUKES YOU, YOU IDIOT!
You can't heal the poor you numbskull! Jesus said: The poor you ALWAYS have with you. You need to focus on the other aspects of society. Without a healthy dollar we can't help the poor you ignorant dumb-ass.

CHESS, ANYONE? OR IS THIS A CHECK?
"Harry Reid has three different options," Cantor said.
"One is to suffer the economic consequences of default, which all of us hope he doesn't choose. Two is to bring up the bill we sent prior ... or to accept the compromise bill that we are sending over today...," Cantor added.
A previous House-passed bill that called for cutting deficits by a steep $5.8 trillion over a decade, capping spending and passing a balanced-budget amendment was rejected by the Senate.
The latest House Republican bill would cut spending by $917 billion over ten years and raise the debt limit by $900 billion, which would force another decision on the debt next year ahead of the 2012 presidential and congressional elections."
Let's see:
1. Default
2. Cut, Cap, and Balance, which cuts deficits by 5.8 trillion, which satisfies the credit agencies. Or
3. $917 billion over 10 years, but when the election cycle is in full swing next year this whole issue is brought up, again. President Obama won't like that.
Well, default is not an option.
Cut, Cap, and Balance is a real attempt at getting control of the debt situation, but Democrats hate it because they won't be able raise taxes and spend spend spend.
The 3rd option kills President Obama's chances to be re-elected.
uuuuum...
Very interesting! The Democrats are going to have to bite one of these bullets. That's what happens when you try to govern from the far left and get kicked out of the House of Representatives in the mid-terms. The president can't get anything done because he was so radical in his first 2 years in office that he scared every Moderate democrat and all of conservatives. What does that mean? The president can't get enough votes to get anything past at the lower or upper chamber's of congress.
I'll say it, again: this is a one-term president.
Me to the Democrats: It's your move.
Democrats: I'm thinking! Don't rush me.
Me: You know, you can always lay your King down and accept defeat. In chess, when you don't have position and defeat is inevitable, it's the honorable thing to do. It shows you have intelligence and not false pride.
Time passes....
Me: It's still your move.
Democrats: I'm thinking! Don't rush me.
Me: You know, you can always lay your King down and accept defeat. In chess, when you don't have position and defeat is inevitable, it's the honorable thing to do. It shows you have intelligence and not false pride.

RHETORIC FOLLIES
RHETORIC:
1: the art of speaking or writing effectively: as
a: the study of principles and rules of composition formulated by critics of ancient times
b: the study of writing or speaking as a means of communication or persuasion
2: a: skill in the effective use of speech
b: a type or mode of language or speech; also insincere or grandiloquent language
3: verbal communication : discourse
OK, that definition comes from Merriam-Webster online dictionary. Let's give some examples of how it is used in Washington D.C. political speeches and far left liberals.
Rhetoric: The United States of America is going broke!
Truth: No, the United States of America is not going broke. The government of the United States of America is going broke. There's plenty of money in the free market place of United States of America. The only place that doesn't operate with the free market place principles, in America, is the government. That institution, the government of the United States of America, is practically a communist entity within a free market society.
Rhetoric: The interest rates for all American will skyrocket if we don't raise the debt ceiling and default on our loans.
Truth: Why should my interest rates go up? I didn't default on this loan. The government did. Why doesn't the interest rates skyrocket for just the institution that is called the government of the United States of America? Then, when the government of the United States of America applies for a loan, again; charge them the new interest rate, but everyone else stays the same.Then the government will ask for more taxes to pay that interest rate, to which we should say: no! You have to figure out how to balance your budget and live within your means.
Rhetoric: We need to tax the rich so they can pay their fair share.
Truth: The poor don't pay taxes at the end of the year. So, between the middle-class and the rich...what is the fair share? Note: Everyone pays taxes at the store, gas pump, and telephones, that doesn't count because in those taxes, it truly is equal.
Rhetoric: The Democrats are for the poor!
Truth: No, the Democrats what the poor to stay poor. That's why they want to give the poor more food stamps; to create a cycle of poverty. Keep them unhappy and get their votes, because the poor are usually not educated and they think in the short-term.
Rhetoric: We need to redistribute the cash to help those who are hurting!
Truth: The amount of cash the government is asking for to do that, billions, is divided by the States and then divided by the people in need (that includes the social workers in the offices where you go to apply, so you don't even get what the full amount of what is given, for you, to the states). When the billions of dollars are divided up by the amount of people that apply for food stamps (after the social workers get their cut) and other things; it's like 20 dollars more in cash and food stamps a month. Guess what? You're still poor! Fatter, but, still poor none-the-less. Still politically unhappy and still blaming the Republicans for the amount of food stamps and cash the Democrats fought to give you. 40 dollars a month more? 100 dollars a month more? Does that really help you get out of the poverty cycle? YOU'RE STILL POOR! Hence, the cycle of poverty continues. The only thing that ends the poverty cycle is an education. The safety nets are GREAT! But, anything more than that is a crime against the drive of the human spirit.
Rhetoric: The Republican hate us!
Truth: They don't hate you. Republican believe in the God given talents of the individual. And they believe that if those God given talents are given the chance to do something in a free society, the sky is the limit for you. The problem is this: you have to develop those talents. What does that mean? School. If you don't go to school, if you don't use your God given talents; the Republicans don't hate you. They don't respect you! Republican hate the Democrats because, through their lies (class-warfare), the Democrats are killing the motivation of the poor to use their God given talents, in a free society, by making the poor become dependent on handouts. Have you noticed that the poor in America are not skinny? Poor Americans are FAT! That comes from a lot of good and bad eating.
Rhetoric: Democrats are the party of the people!
Truth: Democrats are the ones who had the slaves in the South. What's changed? Nothing! They want you to be poor, dumb, and slaves to food stamps and other handouts (they're fighting for you! Plus, they need the cheap labor and can get you a job sweeping and mopping their floors).
Rhetoric: If we were a socialist country, things would be equal!
Truth: No it wouldn't. You would still be poor and uneducated, and at the bottom of food chain, because in socialist countries only those with an education or special talents get treated well. They divide the contributors from the masses. You would be part of the masses, but you wouldn't be fat. You would be skinny.
LOL! What? Not funny? Then why are you Democrat, and not preparing your kids for college from the earliest age?

The Jig is Up!
"S&P raised the threat of a downgrade July 14 by declaring that raising the debt limit alone might not be enough. It wanted to see an enforceable agreement to cut $4 trillion over 10 years to affirm the triple-A rating."
This debt ceiling debate is bringing everything out.
With the credit rating agencies demanding $4 trillion in deficit reduction over 10 years of time or the down grading of America's credit rate will be at hand. Well, there's only one plan that can possibly meet that requirement; the GOP's plan; not Boehner's plan as it is. There can be no "revenue raising" in this "deal." The spending has to stop as of we're going to try to abide by the analysis of the credit rating agencies. That requirement, basically, means that the president's point of view is irrelevant, because he's insistent on raising taxes. Why does he want to raise taxes? To spend it, of course.
We know that the Democrat's philosophy of spending has no place in this debate. The president's and Senate Majority Leader Reid's plan just won't cut it. IT'S THE SPENDING, STUPIDS! Plus, any proposal they make won't get past the house, anyway. This is a matter that has to be dealt with within the House of Representatives, the lower chamber, and if the default August 2nd date is authentic, the Senate has to pass it and the president has to sign it into law, or we can just go down the default road.
The "problem" in the lower chamber is the Tea Party. But, it's not really a problem. This small group in congress is holding everything up, but, it's not a bad thing.
Can you imagine the current of the ocean being turned back by a pebble of sand?
The current, of this ocean, is the "politics as usual" mindset of Washington. Those who call themselves conservatives, but, in fact, are just deal makers; are being exposed. The Democrats are being exposed. All because of this little pebble of sand, within congress, is standing its ground, and bringing to the attention of the world that the spending habits of the government of United States of America is out of hand.
To the Tea Party I say: hold your ground, because if you have the faith the size of a mustard seed; you can say to this mountain (these crooked politicians): be uprooted and cast into the sea.
I'm almost laughing at this situation, because all of them are scratching their heads over this situation.The President, Speaker Boehner, all the Republicans who want to make a bad deal just to get it over with, Bill O'Reily, Charles Krauthammer...all of them EXPOSED by the Tea Party. This is a serious situation; not because of the August 2nd deadline, that's just a political game to squeeze money out of the tax payers, serious because, if the Tea Party caves into the pressure of the world; things will continue as they are in Washington. These politicians are just spending money without any regard to the tax payer, and this is a moment in American history where a small group of people stood up and said to the current of the sea: be thou REBUKED! And turn thou in another direction!
What is that new direction? Fiscal accountability.
I'm tell ya, the jig is up! And any fool who has any type of sense concerning money matters, well, you better get behind this pebble of sand, because if the current overcomes it; there will be no stopping it. Now is the time to change the direction of the current of the politics as usual in Washington D.C..
