THE BS ABOUT GM
June 7, 2009
The acronym GM, which once stood for General Motors, now stands for Government Motors or as some rebuke, Government Mess, has wasted no time in developing their new line of sports cars, which will possibly roll out late September of 2009. Some analysts are highly impressed with the new horn and tires, but the majority of the task force is skeptical due to the unconventional source of energy used to turn the engine. They believe this new form of energy is uncontrollable, unreliable, unpredictable, and gives the driver a false sense of security.
It has been revealed that the vehicle runs on compressed hot air, equalized with the special natural compound of BS. The element, BS, is found in Washington, D.C., but it has been harvested in other democratic regions. Earshot from a reliable source states the fully loaded car is pricey and comes with sticker shock. The new government-produced car is strikingly impressive, satisfies the most delirious buyers, and meets all the new clean-air regulations. The majority of the developers believe the power source of the car, hot air and BS, will run out of steam by December of 2009. Some have even chuckled, declaring the car is mean and green, but there is nothing under the hood to substantiate the government’s claim to fame.
The most outstanding model, the O-Bomb-A, is a one-door hatchback, handsomely designed, currently manufactured at an unknown location, to be revealed at a later date, and comes with a warranty, backed by the federal government. The new car warranty and the owner’s manual, written last night by Congress, containing all the necessary, and unnecessary earmarks, mostly unnecessary, touts the largest warranty ever written, which will be a liability for all future generations. This bill is a thousand pages long. A source from the White House stated the left wing of the building is delighted with what Congress has put together. Congress was hoping to get the stamp of approval on the document, no later then this afternoon. Some say there isn’t enough time to read all the pages, while others say, read later but sign now.
Financing for the new car will not come from local banks, but rather China. Due to the fact, the government has borrowed money from foreign countries, a White House spokesperson stated, we owe China the business, and after all, they helped us when we were in a tight spot. She further declared, the interest rate will be high, but the government is planning to subsidize the payment for a select few.
Rumors are spreading that in the first 100 days you will need repairs to the car to get the bugs out and the CIA has been following up reports that the EPA is secretly closing down GM’s parts plants, which employ fifty thousand non-union workers. Speculators say the Union will take over the debunked operations being funded by Acorn. The validity of these statements has not been proven.
GM- GOVERNMENT MESS
Ya know, it is evident the American people (including myself) don’t know who in the hell to vote for. Case-in-point, look what we have running for office for the second most coveted, respected and responsible position in our country, motherhood being the highest profession one could hold!
Surely the parties could have picked better choices. Yes, I am riding that horse again! Are Obama, Clinton and McCain the best the county has to offer? Or, are the good leaders afraid to venture into the political arena? What gives? America wake up…and smell the septic tank because it is overflowing into our front yards, and the grass isn’t greener!
If we have this much bickering before these demi-gods (Democrats) get into office, what in the world will it be like when they are sitting in JKF’s chair? If the Repubs get in, (personally, you’re great McCain), but who will actually run the country? Can McCain even use a Blackberry? Please, I am not age discriminating, but seventy-two? Our world spins years away in minutes, due to technology and its hard for the fifty-year olds to keep up the pace of constant change, but a senior citizen? Our world is warping, into what, I don’t know, but youth will need to lead.
And, if these people are already running out of MONEY, how in the hell are they going to budget the finances of our country, when they can’t keep themselves in check? Get a loan from China? Pray tell, how? So, now we have bickering, fighting and can’t balance a freaken check book. Sounds like a bad marriage to me.
Here is the BIGGEST PROBLEM…and no one explains this. Remember, I just said they are over budget in their campaigns? Okay, all these NEW THINGS THEY WANT TO GIVE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE,who is going to pay for this? Where are these billions and billions of dollars going to come from? Is the government going to invest in sub-prime mortgage backed securities? And, where is all this money we plan on handing over to creditworth-less homeowners, who don’t pay their bills, and mind you, some have fallen into a hole and can’t get out, but where is this cash going to come from? A loan from China?
Okay, YOU WORKING, BILL PAYING PEOPLE, GET OUT YOUR CHECKBOOK AND EMPTY YOUR SAVINGS ACCOUNT, BECAUSE THE MONEY HAS TO COME FROM SOMEONE. AND, IT WILL NOT BE BILL, HILLARY, BARRACK, BUSH ,OR JOHN, THEY HAVE TAX LOOP HOLES.
We all want to live in fantasyland, where everything is free, and no one wants for nothing, but life is not paradise. Our government is involved in too much, stretched too thin, and it is going to BE RIPPED APART AT THE SEAMS LIKE A CHEAP SUIT! We will need to borrow money from CHINA…trust me it’s coming!!!!!!!!
All I hear is billions and zillions of dollars, and my little mind, that is use to running my little house, is wondering where is all this dough coming from? Then, I look at my paycheck, and see where it is coming from. It won’t be long and the tax-paying people will be on welfare, then who will pay?
AND, OUR MILITARY DECIDED TO GET THEIR NEW AIRCRAFT FROM EUROPE…NOT FROM AN AMERICAN COMPANY. THAT WAS ON THE NEWS….AND THEN IT VANISHED. Sort of like the time the news reported that the booze companies gave more to the campaigns then the tobacco companies. Anyone ever check out the cost of alcholism versus smoking? If a real indepth study was done, alcholism has more of a cost impact on society than smoking. But, the booze companies contribute more money to government. Back to the original thought…bad enough, we have all these foreign imports (they took our American jobs) with no IMPORT taxes coming into the country and then we contract our American planes to be made in Europe. Such a deal!
I wish I had a button to stop everyone in their tracks, put a pot of coffee on and say, hey look, something has to give here. Can’t you see, we have a bigger problem? Maybe we have too many elected officials. Let’s start laying some of them off. Give them the pink slip (some of them are wearing them) and let them sign up for unemployment benefits. Actyally, that is how it is all going to end up. America is going to be UNEMPLOYED AND owned by China. Then all our kids can be labeled, made in China. Made in America, is history. A sad history.
Hey, I’m an old lady…allow me to ramble! You are in the write spot, Barbara Case Speers
Please wake me up from a dead sleep or turn me over from a dead sleep because this Presidential campaign is getting (is) very boring! Even the politician and prostitute buzz ain’t doing it for me. BORING!
It’s to the point, that we have a family tree website, complete with pictures for Obama, proving (I guess) his heritage and religion. So, if you are Muslim, you can’t run for President? Can only WASP’s run for President? Our country has more issues than whether or not Obama is Muslim, Christian or black. Is Hillary behind this? Bill? The media?
Then, Obama’s Pastor. So, (alert this is an example) if Obama’s Pastor believed in UFO’s and believed he was beamed up, does that mean Obama believes that? I go to church (yes, sometimes, as long as it’s not fat day) and I don’t believe every word the preacher, priest, reverend or pastor says. Hey, its all in interpretation, and trust me, I have studied with the best of them! So, what’s up with this? Is the media going to find the tape to prove that Obama was attending church services when the Pastor pulled the whitey card or said America bites?
Next, Hillary. Tisk Tisk. She has an idiot woman, initials (Geraldine Ferraro) who is still steaming (bitching) about the election a zillion years ago and she pulls the gender card for Hillary. That wasn’t bad enough, she picks another card from the deck with Obama’s face on it. GF, you need to grow up and move on. You are still in the sixties. We have cell phones now.
Yes, you did great things to liberate women. Before women’s lib, women could stay home with the kids and take care of the home. But now, we are expected to work (almost equal pay), and still take care of the kids and home. And, our kids get to come home to an empty house. Nice going women’s lib. (they really did help women…ie Hillary)
Seriously, I was around when women burned their bras, but the bra burning days are over. I didn’t burn the one I wore. I wouldn’t be caught dead without a bra. I burned the extra one I brought. GF, what were you thinking with those remarks? What were you smoking? You blew it, girl!
Okay, again, can we stop pulling out the race and gender cards in this campaign and get on to the real business – OUR NATION UNDER CRISIS?
Is the media making up news, just to have news? How many polls and surveys can they have? In other words, the media is making things bigger than what they are, by using the media magnifying glass, creating a feeding frenzy! RATINGS ARE THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL!
Geezes, I have never heard so much talk about nothing! And, it is nothing. The medias are the terroristss…terrorizing our nation with blah, blah static, all day and every day, and every freaken minute of the day. You see and hear the same five stories over and over and over again and a plethora of people giving their two cents on what happened. Talk radio, is squalk radio!
It’s like watching a car accident, and having ten witnesses, two cops, four psychiatrists, three body men who will tell how to repair the cars, eight insurance agents, a black panel and a white panel discussing who was to blame. Then, talk about if for weeks. And, if that doesn’t distort the news. They all talk about each other.
Bottom line, black, white, woman, man, Muslim, Christian, whatever – what are you going to do for the American people? This campaign is Saturday Night Live, on Thursday, starring Hillary and Obama, and the skits are getting old.
Look…you want votes and support? Stop the finger pointing. Tell your campaign people to shut the hell up and start acting like politicians. No not politicians, they lie, but rather LEADERS! Tell us where you stand and what you are going to do, to turn the tide of our nation. If you don’t, we are going to drown in too much media information!
I am tired of the card, “I’m a woman, blah, blah, blah. Or, the race card; I’m black, half-white, maybe three-quarters black, and quarter white, blah, blah. Real voters don’t care. We want solutions to our problems! We don’t need more problems! America doesn’t want to play cards. We want you to suit up and fight the problems that are taking our country down.
Oh My God….Hannity had McCain on for an hour (snooze) and truthfully, I think McCain is going to vote for Hillary…No, Obama….Hint McCain…you want votes, you need to take a stand!
You are in the write spot….Barbara Case Speers
UNCLE SAM’S PIGGY BANK HAS BEEN ROBBED!
March 6, 2008
Tax year rolls around again, and if you are lucky, you won’t have a huge tax bill to pay by April 15th. Let’s face it, you worked hard all year, long hours, stressed, possibly two jobs to make ends meet for your family. You brought home about ninety-thousand, and for all your efforts ,you paid $8,000 to $10,000 (possibly more) in income tax, which is your fair share as an AMERICAN. Guess what, you just paid the EIC for one family, who has two working adults.
Earned Income Credit is a government program. Go figure! If you qualify, the government will give you approximately $4,900 as a bonus for not making money (not working) and give back all the tax money you paid in. And, if you qualify, and you can received the following year’s EIC automatically in your pay check!
It’s free, untaxed money to those who don’t want to work! Read further, because I am not talking about the people who can not earn a big income or who are on fixed incomes. Most people have no idea how EIC works. So, let me educate you. It’s another AMERICAN RIP OFF FOR THOSE OF US WHO WORK AND PAY TAXES! ANOTHER monumental government waste, as is welfare in most cases, when you have generations receiving the benefits, working the system. They don’t work a job, they work the system and they are dam good at it. I worked for social services for nine months and 65% of my case load (250 cases) were bogus, or pure lazy.
EIC is earned income credit given to families who make under certain incomes. The government calls it EARNED. IT IS NOT EARNED!!!!!! The maximum income limit using round figures is thirty-nine thousand for more than one child, and thirty-three thousand for one child. It drops real low for those who have no children. That’s nice, how we care for those who chose not to work. I am not complaining about those who can not earn more income. Read on!
Here is where it bites into my big fat economy. I paid for one of the EIC families last year. Okay, Mr. and Mrs. Hispanic who have children (mind you, I said Mr. and Mrs.), you are abusing our AMERICAN system. They go to the tax preparer, and lo and behold, they are no longer married. See many cultures, the women do not take their husband’s name, such as the Hispanic and Asian culture. So, Mr. and Mrs. now look like two different households. Mrs. takes a child, and Mr. takes a child or children and they file separately. YES FRAUD! Their incomes let’s say is thirty-two thousand a piece. Total FAMILY income would be sixty-four thousand. Mr. and Mrs. American would not get a penny, because they MAKE TOO MUCH MONEY AND ARE NOT ELIGIBLE. But, Mr. and Mrs. permanent resident alien can, because their last names are not the same. They get almost $10,000 dollars!!!!
Tax preparers know this, but they still file the return knowing they are screwing the AMERICAN TAXPAYER. SO, UNCLE SAM (short for sorry ass management), it is more profitable for AMERICANS NOT TO GET MARRIED, that way they can collect more from our government!
But Barb, they have to show another address. How simple is that? The tax preparer puts down another address, and I have SEEN the same address! I have been a loan officer for many years (except the nine months in social services) and I have seen this abuse over and over and over again. It is great that these people fill in the job gap, and do the “so called” jobs Americans do not want to do (who did them before they got here?) but the cost to the taxpayer is through the roof….and it makes me mad when I have to pay for this abuse.
Not only do they get $10,000 dollars free, and untaxed, they are probably getting food stamps, health care, housing assistance through HOME-OWNERSHIP or rent. The employer who is getting the job done cheap, trust me they know these people are illegal, they profit, but we, as tax-paying citizens are paying to keep these people employed, and they are enjoying all the comforts of our AMERICAN home.
COME ON AMERICA, STAND UP AND FIGHT FOR WHAT IS RIGHT. PROTECT THOSE BORDERS! THE TAX MONEY IS GOING TO RUN OUT SOME DAY. THE DEEP POCKETS ARE WORN AND WHOLLY. WE NEED ACTION NOT APPEASEMENT! STOP THE ABUSE. WE GIVE ENOUGH! UNCLE SAM’S PIGGY BANK IS GETTING ROBBED!
By George, She’s Got It!
March 5, 2008
Who has that winning smile? Who beams with competence, not arrogance? Who exemplifies a winning attitude? Who will be the next President? Hats off to Hillary! Last night I watched and really listened to her victory speech. Stripping the gender, I am truly assured she is the candidate, the only candidate to vote for!
Now mind you, I am not a Democrat, and my right-winged Republican conservatism has been long represented by listening to Hannity, Limbaugh and O’Reilly, men I truly respect for their wisdom and foresight. But, Hillary’s got it!
Last night’s victory for Hillary was a turning point for me. She displayed the same dynamic persona as women preachers in the pulpit; for they are women who fight their way for equality. This woman was honest with herself, and with her audience. Winning the Presidency is not just to wear the title, but to help the American people through the turmoil of uncertainty. Let’s face it, America is in a boiling pot of problems.
Hillary is not in it for the glory, she is in it for the fight. The fight to make things right in America. I do believe she will work for the people, all the people. Hillary exemplified…a mother figure. Expounding on that, a good mother would never let her children down. That’s the person we need! And watching her, she will not crack under pressure; it will only fine-tune her go-getterness.
Last night was the first time I saw Hillary for who she really is…a dynamic, caring, responsible, accountable human being who will get the job done foregoing the cost. She is not out to appease the people, but rather, to make the necessary changes our country needs to keep up with a fast-paced circle of change. The good-old boy ways don’t cut it anymore!
We need a leader in the office, not a puppet! Ne need a leader who is willing to think out of the box. We need a leader who understands what is happening now, and using new methods, not the same old political band-aids. We need a leader who understands today’s problems are not the same problems from a decade ago. America needs new blood! The world has changed, and we need a President who will change our world!
Hillary…you are your own person. You have superseded Bill. I no longer fear that if you get in office, Bill will take over. Tell Bill to take a vacation for four years, and YOU run the country. Hillary, it’s in you. You can do it…you have my vote. Stay focused, persevere and be who you are!
