Outside of the increase in the cigarette tax and the AIG bonus taxes, has taxes even changed at all in the last 8 months? I don't see how a single thing that grumpy Gramps brings up has anything to do with Obama other than that Ashely campaigned for him and then decided to shove it in her relatives' faces that he won.
Did the AIG bonus tax actually pass? I thought it died in the Senate

Hope this hasn't already been posted. A Juggernaut of craziness. Has pretty much everything. I even took the time to upload the images for the full experience. Enjoy:
quote:
How's this for apocalyptic literature. This was written by a pastor's
wife in biblical prose as a commentary of current events.
It is brilliant.
------------------------
And it came to pass in the Age of Insanity that the people of the land
called America, having lost their morals, their initiative, and their
will to defend their liberties, chose as their Supreme Leader that
person known as 'The One.'
He emerged from the vapors with a message that had no meaning; but He
hypnotized the people telling them, "I am sent to save you. My lack
of experience, my questionable ethics, my monstrous ego, and my
association with evil doers are of no consequence. I shall save you
with hope and Change. Go, therefore, and proclaim throughout the
land that he who proceeded me is evil, that he has defiled the nation,
and that all he has built must be destroyed." And the people rejoiced,
for even though they knew not what 'The One' would do, he had promised
that it was good; and they believed. And 'The One' said, " We live in
the greatest country in the world. Help me change everything about it!"
And the people said, "Hallelujah! Change is good!"
Then He said, "We are going to tax the rich fat-cats." And the
people said "Sock it to them!" "And redistribute their wealth." And
the people said, "Show us the money!" And then he said,
"redistribution of wealth is good for everybody."
And Joe the plumber asked, "Are you kidding me? You're going to
steal my money and give it to the deadbeats??" And 'The One'
ridiculed and taunted him, and Joe's personal records were hacked and publicized.
One lone reporter asked, "Isn't that Marxist policy?" And she was
banished from the kingdom!
Then a citizen asked, "With no foreign relations experience and
having zero military experience or knowledge, how will he deal with
radical terrorists?" And 'The One' said, "Simple. I shall sit with
them and talk with them and show them how nice we really are; and they
will forget that they ever wanted to kill us all!" And the people
said, "Hallelujah!! We are safe at last, and we can beat our weapons
into free cars for the people!"
Then 'The One' said, "I shall give 95% of you lower taxes." And one,
lone voice said, "But 40% of us don't pay ANY taxes. So 'The One'
said, "Then I shall give you some of the taxes the fat-cats pay!"
And the people said, "Hallelujah! Show us the money!"
Then 'The One' said, "I shall tax your Capital Gains when you sell
your homes!" And the people yawned and the slumping housing market
collapsed. And He said, "I shall mandate employer-funded health care
for every worker and raise the minimum wage. And I shall give every
person unlimited healthcare and medicine and transportation to the
clinics." And the people said, "Give me some of that!"
Then he said, "I shall penalize employers who ship jobs overseas."
And the people said, "Where's my rebate check?"
Then 'The One' said, "I shall bankrupt the coal industry and
electricity rates will skyrocket!" And the people said, "Coal is
dirty, coal is evil, no more coal! But we don't care for that part
about higher electric rates." So 'The One' said, "Not to worry. If
your rebate isn't enough to cover your expenses, we shall bail you out.
Just sign up with the ACORN and your troubles are over!"
Then He said, "Illegal immigrants feel scorned and slighted. Let's
grant them amnesty, Social Security, free education, free lunches,
free medical care, bi-lingual signs and guaranteed housing..." And
the people said, "Hallelujah!" and they made him king!
And so it came to pass that employers, facing spiraling costs and
ever-higher taxes, raised their prices and laid off workers. Others
simply gave up and went out of business and the economy sank like unto
a rock dropped from a cliff.
The banking industry was destroyed. Manufacturing slowed to a
crawl. And more of the people were without a means of support.
Then 'The One' said, "I am 'the One'- The Messiah - and I'm here
to save you! We shall just print more money so everyone will have
enough!" But our foreign trading partners said unto Him. "Wait a
minute. Your dollar is not worth a pile of camel dung! You will have
to pay more..." And 'The One' said, "Wait a minute. That isn't
fair!!" And the world said, "Neither are these other idiotic
programs you have embraced. Lo, you have become a Socialist state and
a second-rate power. Now you shall play by our rules!"
And the people cried out, "Alas, alas!! What have we done?" But yea
verily, it was too late. The people set upon 'The One' and spat upon
him and stoned him, and his name was dung. And the once mighty nation
was no more; and the once proud people were without sustenance or
shelter or hope. And the Change 'The One' had given them was as like
unto a poison that had destroyed them and like a whirlwind that
consumed all that they had built.
And the people beat their chests in despair and cried out in anguish,
"give us back our nation and our pride and our hope!!" But it was too
late, and their homeland was no more.
(image was too big here for waffleimages, but its an animated gif of biden, hillary, barack and michelle dancing in a car)
You may think this a fairy tale, but it's not.
It's happening RIGHT NOW
THIS really tells it like it is. After reading it -- and before you go into the bathroom to throw-up -- forward it to your friends and those you know who care about our country and what is happening to it under the rule of Commissar Obamanation.
P.S. -- Yeah, this is too true to be funny. Tragic, but not funny; tragic but true.

quote:
Enjoying your Freedom? Thank a Veteran..
“WHITE" Pride”
This is great. I have been wondering about why Whites are racists, and no other race is.....
Proud to be White
Michael Richards makes his point...............
Michael Richards better known as Kramer from TVs Seinfeld does make a good point.
This was his defense speech in court after making racial comments in his comedy act. He makes some very interesting points...
Someone finally said it. How many are actually paying attention to this? There are African Americans, Mexican Americans, Asian Americans, Arab Americans, etc.
And then there are just Americans. You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction. You call me 'White boy,' 'Cracker,' 'Honkey,' 'Whitey,' 'Caveman'... and that's OK.
But when I call you, friend of the family, Kike, Towel head, Sand-friend of the family, Camel Jockey, Beaner, Gook, or Chink .. You call me a racist.
You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you... so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?
You have the United Negro College Fund. You have Martin Luther King Day.
You have Black History Month. You have Cesar Chavez Day.
You have Yom Hashoah. You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi.
You have the NAACP. You have BET... If we had WET (White Entertainment Television), we'd be racists. If we had a White Pride Day, you would call us racists..
If we had White History Month, we'd be racists.
If we had any organization for only whites to 'advance' OUR lives, we'd be racists.
We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black Chamber of Commerce, and then we just have the plain Chamber of Commerce. Wonder who pays for that??
A white woman could not be in the Miss Black American pageant, but any color can be in the Miss America pageant.
If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships... You know we'd be racists.
There are over 60 openly proclaimed Black Colleges in the US .. Yet if there were 'White colleges', that would be a racist college.
In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching for your race and rights. If we marched for our race and rights, you would call us racists.
You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're not afraid to announce it.. But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists.
You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us. But, when a white police officer shoots a black gang member or beats up a black drug dealer running from the law and posing a threat to society, you call him a racist.
I am proud... But you call me a racist.
Why is it that only whites can be racists??
There is nothing improper about this e-mail.. Let's see which of you are proud enough to send it on. I sadly don't think many will. That's why we have LOST most of OUR RIGHTS in this country. We won't stand up for ourselves!
BE PROUD TO BE WHITE!
It's not a crime YET... but getting very close!
It is estimated that ONLY 5% of those reaching this point in this e-mail, will pass it on.
I am proud to certainly pass it on!
Got this from my aunt. Considering that we're Jewish, I have a feeling she didn't read most of this before she sent it.

She claims she sent it out because it was thought provoking and would spark a dialogue. My response:
quote:
But it's almost entirely wrong and represents a ridiculously warped world view.
Some of my favorite parts:
1. The "black colleges" that he's talking about do admit white people though not many go. They're actually called historically black colleges because back in the day, they were the only colleges black people were allowed to go to.
2. Has anyone actually been called a honky or a cracker in the last 20 years? I can see the person who wrote this living his life assuming that black people hate him when in fact he's probably never talked to one. And I agree, using any racial slur, no matter who it's against, is racist. I don't think most people would disagree.
3. They tried to attribute it to Michael Richards, but there's no way he actually said this. He never had to to go to court for his racist outburst.
4. They say that observing Yom Hashoah, the day commemorating victims of the Holocaust, is somehow putting your ethnicity above your country. That line makes me think that this was largely written by neo-Nazis.
5. Not only is there a BET, but there's also a couple women's channels (WE and Oxygen), a man's channel (Spike), a hispanic channel (Univision and others), a Polish channel and several Asian channels. What about the fact that pretty much every prime time show on the major networks has a majority white cast? Can we count this as the white channel? Should we ban them all? What would even be on a white TV channel? Does anyone even know what White culture is?
6. There are scholarships for pretty much every ethnic group, including the ones that would be considered "white."
7. Believe it or not, most black people aren't drug dealers or car thieves and it's absolutely a fact that police in many areas pull people over solely based on the color of their skin. (And sometimes white people commit crimes, too. *gasp()
8. Based on the tone in other parts of the email, I'm pretty sure that they're not counting Jews when they say Be Proud to Be White

Only whites can be racist because, as a majority group, we have the power to set policy that privileges ourselves and punishes minority groups. Minorities don't have this power, so they can be prejudiced, but not racist.
I don't buy that since racism doesn't necessarily have anything to do with policy or actions. It just means believing that your race is better. Racism is a form of prejudice.

self-hating <insert race here>?
Edit: oh, i see what you're saying. Yeah, it's not necessarily your own race, racism is believing that any race is better than any other.

That's New York Times style, they call someone by their title with the first usage in the article and then do it by only Mr/Mrs whatever.
I think if you were talking to him in person or interviewing him or something you'd call him Mr. President or President Obama whenever addressing him.

It's our guns. They bring freedom. Someone showed me a "scientific" study that correlated guns to freedom. You see, Somalia and Iraq and North Korea would be just fine if only they had more guns.
Doesn't Somalia have the highest guns per capita or something? Seems like everyone walks around Mogadishu with an AK-47 at all times.
