Guess that they really don’t need my support:

SO the Republicans…Not, BTW, Conservatives, have made a deal with the Devil in order to prevent sequestration cuts from happening early next year.

Yeah, like that will help our Republic.

No real spending cuts, just paper trimmings of the mythical future spendings.

I was gonna buy a new gun in January and put it on my Visa card, but I changed my mind……did I cut $650 from my budget? Not the way I look at it. Nor will Visa see it that way either.

The GOP leadership may well have had good reasons to do what they did, but they have not articulated those reasons to me. And until they do, and as long as that weasel Boehner exists as Speaker of the House and gets to rant about how Conservatives and Tea Party types are making his job harder, the GOP will get Zero support from me.

Yes, I understand that the budget is always a compromise, and that there has to be give and take on both sides. But perhaps they need to learn how to negotiate. Capitulation without getting something in return isn’t negotiating….it is surrender. You have not negotiated, you have turned your back to the opposition and bent over and raised your skirt.  And you want to compromise on Illegal Immigration/Amnesty as well?

I see no real cuts in government, only cuts in future growth that may or may not ever really happen.  I don’t see the deficit being slashed, nor do I see the debt being reduced. All I really see is smoke and mirrors and lies and deceit. And above all, I see more funding for Nanny State government programs and zero reductions in the welfare state/entitlements” that are choking this country and our culture to death. We already saw the cuts in Military spending, but not the cuts on the other side.

So I say this to the GOP and to the Republican candidates: No more choosing the lesser of the two weasels evils. I no longer believe that you will actually fix things….No more support in any way. You’ll get nothing from me unil you begin REPRESENTING me and my kind. I’ll not vote for, nor support, nor allow your campaign to use my property for election signage, nor in any way help you to prevail against your only-slightly-worse opponents as I have in the past… I may well do all I can to oppose you where possible. For you have abused my trust and chosen to sup with the devil.

And that, for me, puts you beyond the pale.

It’s enough to make me consider moving to S.C

(if the bill passes, that is)
And I HATE South Carolina.

But if this passes, I may have to consider it.

I’d rather live there a free(er) man than in another state as a subject of Washington D.C. 

Maybe Indiana will follow suit. States rights (10th amendment) may well be decided based upon this law if it passes.

We shall see.

Sure will be thumb in the eye of Barry though, won’t it?

H/T: Cordite in the Morning

Nuttin’ to see heare, move along

In other nondisclosure news, the House Oversight Committee turned up letters Wednesday showing that HHS ordered the private contractors partly responsible for the Healthcare.gov fiasco not to cooperate with congressional investigations or hand over documents. For no pertinent reason, HHS reminds them that they signed contracts obligating them not to share information with “third parties.” 

So what, exactly, are they hiding? 

Fortuitous timing:

If you are a gun control advocate that is:

School shooting in Centennial Colorado:

WTF is it with suburbs of Denver? Must be the overwhelming amounts of liberals there or something.

So interesting that this happened JUST BEFORE the “anniversary” of Newtown…isn’t it?  Coinicidences seem to be piling up.

The sad part is that for many, it will tug at their heartstrings and make them want to Do Something to Stop It. And few will suspect that they are being manipulated.

ETA: goes very well with THIS observation about news reporting from yesterday.

Shades of Vince Foster

Loretta Fuddy, the person who approved the release of Barry’s Birth Certificate was the only fatality in a plane crash on Wed.

All other passengers received only “non life threatening injuries and survived.

INteresting, Innit?

My bad

ETA: (9:22 pm) I am informed by people I trust and who really DO know what they are talking about that this was likely a heart attack caused by exertion after the crash or a similar issue. older person, overweight and not in good shape…not what it looks like at first glance. 

My bad. Sorry
