Now if you or I had done this the government wouldn’t have spent a 10th of the money that they did in Rangels case. No, we would have been dragged into court, convicted and sent to jail. But I digress. The disturbing part of this whole process to censure Charlie Rangel is what happened afterwards. After being handed the most severe penalty (without expulsion) the democrats gave Charlie a standing ovation. Yes you heard me right. The guy that had a rent control apartment, abused government resources, sold his political influence for money, under reported income on his condo (to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars over a decade) and cheated on his taxes was giving a standing ovation by the democrats in the House.

His defenders cited his war record as a reason to excuse his crimes. As a veteran I am insulted that elected representatives would stand up in the senate chambers and try to insinuate that Rangel should be absolved of his crimes because he’s a veteran. I didn’t serve in the military to get special favors or treatment. The democrats have made it clear that they are in a society all to themselves. Do as I say and not as I do…we know what’s best for you.

I think this video clearly deomstrates that they are out of touch with the morals and values of the American people. Why do they keep voting them back in.

China has overtaken Japan as the #2 economy in the world.  Not bad, like to see country’s succeed but did you know that China favors the Euro over the U.S Dollar.

NEW JOBLESS CLAIMS RISE TO 500,000…Highest level in 9 months

Obama now blames poor job numbers on Congress…wait don’t the democrats control congress

This is not good news for our economy .. U.S. bankruptcy filings have reached the highest level since 2005.

Banks to benefit most from White House effort to fight foreclosures…

Obama supports the right for a mosque at ground zero….

Nancy Pelosi has called for an investigation of anyone protesting the building of the mosque at Ground Zero.

The conflict between Obamas America and Arizona is escalating.  The US Attorney General (Eric Holder) may sue Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio

Last US combat troops leave Iraq…Obama plans to double the number of private security guards

Obama’s inner circle continue to criticizeArizona’s illegal immigrant law, without ever reading it. Obama has a state dinner, honoring the Mexican President Felipe Calderon.  The Mexican President receives a standing ovation from the Democrats for criticizing Arizona’s immigration crackdown.  World markets tumble, we have the largest unemployment spike in 3 months, we bailout a bank with ties to Obama and he’s also quite about the oil spill and BP.

We’re bailing out state pension funds and are spending more than we bring in.  A Democratic Senate Candiate openly lies for years about his service and Vietnam – “When we returned from Vietnam, I remember the taunts, the verbal and even physical abuse we encountered” – and says it was just a few misplaced words.  Woody Allen wants Obama to be a dictator…for a few years and Obama signs the press freedom act and then refuses to ask questions.

Misses Obama knows where there’s someone that’s breaking a federal law and won’t do anything about it, Obamas aunt wins political asylum and can continue to live in public housing.  Oh yeah, and Rachel Maddow pulls a Chris Matthews.  I think they do that so MSNBC gets some viewers. 

Man, it’s only Thursday!

Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters, et al:

We have stuck together since the late 1950′s for the sake of the kids, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce…. I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has clearly run its course.

Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right for us all, so let’s just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way.

Here is a model separation agreement:

Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass, each taking a similar portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement.  After that, it should be relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes.

We don’t like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU. Since you hate guns and war, we’ll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military.  We’ll take the nasty, smelly oil industry and you can go with wind, solar and biodiesel.  You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O’Donnell (You are, however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them).

We’ll keep capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street. You can have your beloved lifelong welfare dwellers, food stamps, homeless, homeboys, hippies, druggies and illegal aliens. We’ll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO’s and rednecks. We’ll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood .

You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we’ll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us. You can have the peaceniks and war protesters. When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we’ll help provide them security.

We’ll keep our Judeo-Christian values.. You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism, political correctness and Shirley McClain. You can also have the U.N.. but we will no longer be paying the bill.

We’ll keep the SUV’s, pickup trucks and oversized luxury cars. You can take every Subaru station wagon you can find.

You can give everyone healthcare if you can find any practicing doctors.  We’ll continue to believe healthcare is a luxury and not a right.  We’ll keep The Battle Hymn of the Republic and the National Anthem. I’m sure you’ll be happy to substitute Imagine, I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing, Kum Ba Ya or We Are the World.

We’ll practice trickledown economics and you can continue to give trickle up poverty your best shot.

Since it often so offends you, we’ll keep our history, our name and our flag. 

Would you agree to this?  If so, please pass it along to other like minded liberal and conservative patriots and if you do not agree, just hit delete. In the spirit of friendly parting, I’ll bet you Answer which one of us will need whose help in 15 years.

Sincerely,
John J. Wall
Law Student and an American

P. S. Also, please take Ted Turner, Sean Penn, Martin Sheen, Barbara Streisand, & Jane Fonda with you.

P. S. S.  And you won’t have to press 1 for English when you call our country.

This is very interesting!  I never thought about it this way. Perhaps this is why so many physicians are conservatives or republicans.

The Democratic Party has become the Lawyers’ Party. 

• Barack Obama is a lawyer.
• Michelle Obama is a lawyer.
• Hillary Clinton is a lawyer. 
• Bill Clinton is a lawyer.
• John Edwards is a lawyer. 
• Elizabeth Edwards is a lawyer.

Every Democrat nominee since 1984 went to law school (although Gore did not graduate).

Every Democrat vice presidential nominee since 1976, except for Lloyd Bentsen, went to law school.

Look at leaders of the Democrat Party in Congress: 

• Harry Reid is a lawyer. 
• Nancy Pelosi is a lawyer.    

The Republican Party is different. 

• President Bush is a businessman. 
• Vice President Cheney is a businessman.

The leaders of the Republican Revolution: 

• Newt Gingrich was a history professor.
• Tom Delay was an exterminator. Dick Armey was an economist. 
• House Minority Leader Boehner was a plastic manufacturer. 
• The former Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist is a heart surgeon.

Who was the last Republican president who was a lawyer?  Gerald Ford, who left office 31 years ago and who barely won the Republican nomination as a sitting president, running against Ronald Reagan in 1976.  The Republican Party is made up of real people doing real work, who are often the targets of lawyers.

The Democrat Party is made up of lawyers.  Democrats mock and scorn men who create wealth, like Bush and Cheney, or who heal the sick, like Frist, or who immerse themselves in history, like Gingrich.

The Lawyers’ Party sees these sorts of people, who provide goods and services that people want, as the enemies of America.  And, so we have seen the procession of official enemies, in the eyes of the Lawyers’ Party, grow.

Against whom do Hillary and Obama rail?  Pharmaceutical companies, oil companies, hospitals, manufacturers, fast food restaurant chains, large retail businesses, bankers, and anyone producing anything of value in our nation.

This is the natural consequence of viewing everything through the eyes of lawyers.  Lawyers solve problems by successfully representing their clients, in this case the American people.  Lawyers seek to have new laws passed, they seek to win lawsuits, they press appellate courts to overturn precedent, and lawyers always parse language to favor their side.

Confined to the narrow practice of law, that is fine.  But it is an awful way to govern a great nation.  When politicians as lawyers begin to view some Americans as clients and other Americans as opposing parties, then the role of the leg al system in our life becomes all-consuming.  Some Americans become “adverse parties” of our very government.  We are not all litigants in some vast social class-action suit.  We are citizens of a republic that promises us a great deal of freedom from laws, from courts, and from lawyers.

Today, we are drowning in laws; we are contorted by judicial decisions; we are driven to distraction by omnipresent lawyers in all parts of our once private lives.  America has a place for laws and lawyers, but that place is modest and reasonable, not vast and unchecked.  When the most important decision for our next president is whom he will appoint to the Supreme Court, the role of lawyers and the law in America is too big.  When lawyers use criminal prosecution as a continuation of politics by other means, as happened in the lynching of Scooter Libby and Tom Delay, then the power of lawyers in America is too great.  When House Democrats sue America in order to hamstring our efforts to learn what our enemies are planning to do to us, then the role of litigation in America has become crushing.

We cannot expect the Lawyers’ Party to provide real change, real reform or real hope in America   Most Americans know that a republic in which every major government action must be blessed by nine unelected judges is not what Washington intended in 1789.  Most Americans grasp that we cannot fight a war when ACLU lawsuits snap at the heels of our defenders.  Most Americans intuit that more lawyers and judges will not restore declining moral values or spark the spirit of enterprise in our economy..

Perhaps Americans will understand that change cannot be brought to our nation by those lawyers who already largely dictate American society and business.  Perhaps Americans will see that hope does not come from the mouths of lawyers but from personal dreams nourished by hard work.  Perhaps Americans will embrace the truth that more lawyers with more power will only make our problems worse.

The United States has 5% of the world’s population and 66% of the world’s lawyers! Tort (Legal) reform legislation has been introduced in congress several times in the last several years to limit punitive damages in ridiculous lawsuits such as “spilling hot coffee on yourself and suing the establishment that sold it to you” and also to limit punitive damages in huge medical malpractice lawsuits. This legislation has continually been blocked from even being voted on by the Democrat Party. When you see that 97% of the political contributions from the American Trial Lawyers Association goes to the Democrat Party, then you realize who is responsible for our medical and product costs being so high!

I recently asked my friend’s little girl what she wanted to be when she grows up. She said she wanted to be President some day. Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there, so I asked her, ‘If you were President what would be the first thing you would do?’ She replied, ‘I’d give food and houses to all the homeless people.’

Her parents beamed. ‘Wow…what a worthy goal.’ I told her, ‘But you don’t have to wait until you’re President to do that. You can come over to my house and mow the lawn, pull weeds, and sweep my yard, and I’ll pay you $50. Then I’ll take you over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward food and a new house.’

She thought that over for a few seconds, then she looked me straight in the eye and asked, ‘Why doesn’t the homeless guy come over and do the work, and you can just pay him the $50?’

I said, ‘Welcome to the Republican Party.’

Her parents still aren’t speaking to me.

Page 41: The Coast Guard wants more than $572 million for “Acquisition, Construction, & Improvements” They claim these funds will create 1,235 new jobs. Crunch the numbers and this brings the cost of “creating” each job to a staggering $460,000+

Page 23: $200 million for Dep. of Defense to acquire alternative energy vehicles.

Page 32: $1.5 billion for a “carbon-capturing contest”

Page 45: “$25,000,000 is for recreation maintenance, especially for rehabilitation of off-road vehicle routes, and $20,000,000 is for trail maintenance and restoration.” ATV owners, rejoice.

Page 60: $400 million for HIV and chlamydia testing

Page 61: $75 million for smoking cessation

$54 billion will go to federal programs that the Office of Management and Budget or the Government Accountability Office have already criticized as “ineffective” or unable to pass basic financial audits. These include the Economic Development Administration, the Small Business Administration, the 10 federal job training programs, and many more.

There’s $81 billion for Medicaid, $36 billion for expanded unemployment benefits, $20 billion for food stamps, and $83 billion for the earned income credit for people who don’t pay income tax. While some of that may be justified to help poorer Americans ride out the recession, they aren’t job creators.
