[...] President-elect Barack Obama’s got Rahm-bo spearheading the push to fork over a piece of the banking bailout pie to the auto industry. This comes on top of the $25 billion loan package (supported by both Obama and McCain) to the car makers in September. And it comes at the same time that the feds are acknowledging that the multi-billion-dollar AIG bailout was not enough and is not working. [...]

I wish we could just have 20 some states secede from the Union and start over

I would love to see that. However, you know the end result. In 20 years the lib/dem states would be broke providing welfare and “saving the world’s children”. With their economy in shambles, they would migrate to the “red states”. Even if we said “no” to the mass migration, they would sneak in (ala Mexico). Then, since a good ideological liberal never learns, would immediately begin instituting the same social policies in the “red states” that destroyed their own dem states. How do I know this will happen? Look at Oregon, Arizona, and Texas where the california libs fled to after they ruined that state. We are seeing the same stupid policies being pushed here now. Tolerance at all costs. It’s for the children. No person is illegal and must be protected. Increased welfare (heck in Texas the idiot gov’t spent $ advertising to increase SCHIP enrollment, especially to non english speakers)…….

Those who believe we are a free democracy remind me of the Jews thinking they were still free as the Nazi government headed them into the Jewish slums just before they gassed them. They were in denial as we aretoday.

Our government is out of control.

And if you don’t think they are going to raise our taxes to pay for all this (confescating more of our income) elephants fly.

Another issue regarding this bail out is that the government wants to keep it secret from those of us who are paying, where the money is going. Here’s a clue: WE.ARE.NO.LONGER.FREE and democratic in this country. Right now we are being allowed to keep enough of our paycheck to continue this charade of democracy. At some point, we will be allowed to keep only a penance while most of it will be confescated by the government. This happens now, but we keep enough to shut us up. Our government is out of control. Some I talk with say we are headed for socialism. My response is, we are already there. The only thing free in this country is religion. Socialism is thriving here in the good ‘Ol U.S.A.

Obama wants to bail out the auto industry (he owes his union buddies big time), he is appointing Washington insiders and he wants a stimulus package. Riiiiiiight…real time man for change. NOT!

America is heading for a big fall. We have stopped survival of the fittest, we have eliminated competition, and we have stopped evolution…

The sick, weak and stupid are breeding in the inner cities like cockroaches and more pouring across the border.

We either need a good disease to sweep across the planet, a damn good world war, or some organized conservative Americans that take the country back… SOMETHING to get nature rolling again.

The gun to the head:

Liddy continued, “The $85 billion emergency bridge loan was essential to prevent an AIG bankruptcy, which would have caused incalculable damage to AIG, our economy and the global financial system”.

The fact is the global markets would have been stunned for a short while, but AIG’s demise would have been a gold mine for financially healthy insurance carriers that didn’t invest in the sub-prime bundles. Instead, US govt believes they have a gun pointed and need to take action…throwing more of OUR money away!

Enough already!
