In Defence of Glenn Beck. Monday, Oct 5 2009
Uncategorized 2:15 am
The Core of this argument is a response to studenlawyer who posted a thoughtful youtube video because I don’t waste my time with the truly bigoted ones. I can’t defend rush, but I have listened to Beck for 4 years as an insider. I know what he said, I remember the context of what he said when he makes controversial remarks.
First, he became Mormon when he was 18. Wikipedia had that one wrong. Second, his mother committed suicide and that Beck was an alcoholic. True. Third that he has ADD and flunked or funked (drug use) out of Yale collage. True. Maybe the why is fuzzy?
And the point, the volley, the time on target barrage: This makes him uneducated and unworthy of Americas time to pay attention. This also makes him unstable.
Rebuttal: You ever watch his conversion story. This man has a classical education as a self taught man in philosophy. And look at him. He is well adjusted. He has admited all of his wrongs. Spent time on why they were wrong and has completely did a 180.
Um, How bout an argument that does not have a basis in ad homine attacks. Like Beck uses arguments that he looked up from the reputable guys that founded this nation. You know his facts that he can footnote are accurate. World Image? Really. As for Obama. He has a good image because of benefit of the doubt. He hasn’t done anything except Stimulus that he payed for by selling bonds and then bying them back with Federal Reserve printed money. But to be fair the Fed made that decision. As for healthcare there are real arguments to be made that the government can’t do it cheaper and better. If you look at this as a movement away from limited government or a PR campaign by “early 20 century progressive” idealists, then what did they believe. A variant on Socialism, which the Communists didn’t like because it was a variant of their system, which Hitler disagreed with so he came up with his own socialist party the Nazi’s.
All of these variants are bad. FDR’s socialism has consentrated power in the elites of this country. People like Bush and Obama and Clinton, and the Kennedy’s. The point of the right is that this power should be more localized. Small corporations and governments are less prone to abuse and to making system wide problems.

It’s within the same week when both Grasshole and Jon Kyl made it perfectly clear that the Republicans will not vote for any health care reform bill short of something that abolishes Medicaid, privatizes Social Security and replaces Secretary Sebelius with Carrie Prejean.
Above is a quote from the huffington post. Now I am not going to look up this quotes backround but take it a face value. I am new to this game so I don’t even know who the secertarys are. Still just a point. We need to do something with Medicaid and Social Security. During one of our best years the country made 12 trillion dollars ( A receintish GDP). And (source is from Glenn Beck) we owe in the next 50 ish years 4 times that. With an insolvicy date of 2019.( from the CBO) So we have to do something and if it isn’t privite then what can the government do because thier track record sucks.What have progressive done for us lately?

Auto bailout and Bank Bailout and Church and State and Energy and Global Warming and Serria Club and big government and religious toleration 11:53 pm
Stereotypical liberalism is, increase the Governments power by increasing their money so that we can’t be free because there are so many uncommonsense rules attached. We can’t build things on private property with out going to the federal community and that is wrong. We can’t progress because the progressives block the way. The Environmentalists have frozen or will freeze the world as it is today in an attempt to gain more power and shut down anything that requires energy. They do it through the federally funded EPA and lawsuits. And yes I can back that up.
Civil Rights movement, what do they do lately for us. Prevent children from praying to God privately for help with their work because the’re in a federally publicly funded school. They didn’t stop eminent domain by towns for corporations use. I know the town would progress but I am willing to ride my bike to keep private property private. Civil Rights movement keeps murdering scum alive by opposing the death penalty. But what if they are kids? well what if? 10 percent of homicides are premeditated murder by gang memebers and wacos who are 17.(the actual numbers are under 18 but close enough).
Oh labor unions, there was a use for them, there is a use for them. But today they are the secondary reason for jobs going overseas. They are the primary reason for our auto industry being in a bad state when the federal and banks money problem sunk them. And the teacher labor unions have supported some abominable things like, you must join the union and pay their dues and unions get state money so they can force you to pay their dues and , sex ed and the gay issue for really way to young kids.
Social Security and Medicare, you mean the thing that was going to kill our constitution when we went backrupt. It was going to, now we have liberal progressives in the old style of the word in control of the House, the Senate, and the white house. Mussouli is going to make the trains run on time. While blameing conservities for all of the fiscal mess, not just some of it all of it, they are going to spend like drunk saliors. more money then they can loan. yes that is a fact. The fed printed money to loan to the treasury. Not that the fed had a choice we could have just declared bankruptcy. Right. (the idea has appeal it would stop the madness.)
Mean while progressives are worried about what? Global Warming cause by CO2 and the Poor of this country. So they are going to tax the “rich” of most their money. (thus causing us to have no jobs) Inflate our money.(so it is worthless) Are they going to tax our coal away from our barrels as we stand jobless in the street because it emits CO2, or just force us to take a job with the government like a good prole. But hey the trains will run on time.
That’s my nuclear attack. What the heck have progressive done for us lately.

Geoffrey DunnAward-winning journalist, filmmaker and historian is a bigot.
Well I read his arcticle. It had notheing to do with religion. It was about Van Susteren and Palin. There are conservitives. OK so.
Well, The headline was a reference to terrorism. “pall’n around” only instead of terrorism they inserted a religion. A religion that is in my opinion false and misleading but hooking that religion that you view as false to terrorism is bad.
this next quote is unacceptable.
“While there’s something ironic about Alaska’s most famous evangelical Christians pallin’ around with a couple who believes that 75 million years ago an entity named Xenu brought billions of people to Earth in spacecraft resembling DC-8 airliners, it’s all been good for Van Susteren’s ratings.”
Mocking someone beliefs. Ok thats fine legally. 1st amendment. The context of the article is about politics. Calling both Greata and Palin mean spirited hatefully, greedy non creditable people. Notice that context has nothing to do with religion. This is an attack on religion. A bigot, A bigot.
They passed a 4/5’s of a trillion dollar without reading it Saturday, Feb 14 2009
Uncategorized 11:46 pm
I am not the only one thinking that you don’t pass a bill that you expect to pay by selling bonds to the Federal Reserve (who will print the money). This will half the vaule of our dollar. This is a fifty percent tax on all americans. And the more you saved the harder it hits you because this is a wealth tax of all paper fiat money. This wasn’t what I was thinking when I asked for a flat income tax. But say you agree with this idea. Say you don’t buy my arguments against this bill. That doing nothing is better then government involment. You want new deal number 2. Don’t you think you should read this bill rather then trusting 5 people to put it together. They made this bill in the back room. They only invited the senete repblicans in consoltation after a huge outcry that this is a losey bill. But that Outcry wasn’t the reason they were invited, they just didn’t want a filabuster. The public looking at the earlier bill found stuff that they didn’t like. They got some nessary changes through. Then it went to confrence where 5 people rewrote the bill and put it up for a vote so Pelosi could make it to Rome and collect her accolades from the Sons of Itialy honoring her and five other women for being successful. Outragous, because we passed this so fast because there was no real debate this bill is undiluted, well ok at 85% concentrate.
Because the last president supported a war in 2003 to pound on some like minded indiviuals who believe in useing religon for political gain, to put pressure on Iran and squeeze them. The progressives protested, and did so load enough, that Iran felt no pressure from a divide USA. Thus destroying the whole point to the war. If we can’t have it our way then you get nothing at all mentality. The Psueduo conservitives who increased our deficeits spent way more money than Clinton ever did, had an angry conservitive base and and angry progressive base got pounded out of Congress. Where as the extreme progressives got voted in. I give you the dirtbag Pelosi who just past that bill. Then Because the New York times endorsed McCain he one the primarys of three states (none of which I am in) and the other states like sheep gave him the nomination. He was our worst nightmare. And he was put up against a well spoken popular Senator. Obama won. Now I don’t want to be Euroupe. I don’t want government programs at the Federal level. I want troops at the federal level and a tax to pay for them. I want a State Department. A deptment of Commerce and Inteior (for the National Parks) sound ok. Social Security Medicare etc etc etc can be states rights.
Now they pass this bill. That destroys what is left of our economy eventually through inflation. Which might still have federal doctors talking with mine to deny me medical care so as to reduce costs in it. Which still might force my state to decouple power generation from sells of power.
So they are takeing over my banks, my car makers, my power companies, Because they didn’t like a war, and because we didn’t like spending to much. Oh yea and they will print up to 10 trillion dollars to fix the problem of morgages being overleveraged (aka to much money in loans borrowed to bet the people won’t default). Why did people default, because money was so easy to get through loans. Who controls the Loans, why its the FED. So how did they fix the problem. Make money easier to get by giveing it away. Notice a circle here with that progressive side effect that they are grabing power. Control over the banks ,cars , powercompanies, healthcare, waterways, airwaves (fairness doctrine), internet (ses previous post on net neutrailty), etc,etc. One lady claimed that this had gun control in it and sited a HR passage. But since no one had the bill long enough to check it much less protest this before the vote, who knows. But if it does, it makes Obama a Liar. That is if you don’t count the Lobbyist thing.
Obama certainly is not letting this emergency go to waste. At Least the Patriot act had a sunset. This bill and tarp keeps going and going.
What is in this monster? What emergency could be so pressing? Is there a sunset to any of this?

Net Neutrality in Stimulas bill?! Wednesday, Feb 11 2009
Uncategorized 11:56 pm
I still have no idea what net Neutrality is. How ever Diane Feinstien (much maligned by me ) ,idiot, whom I am almost always in disagreement with wants to kill net neutraility according to Slashdot. She is trying to add (comcast’s) “responsible network management” so they can kill Porn online. And she is doing it in conferce commitee to hide her little act. So red flags, red flags, let me count the flags.
Flag one – Stimulas Bill = Economic recovery not anything else.
Flag two – She’s a Liberal, as in on the ACLU’s side, for porn, why would she put this in when it is so obviously against 1st amendment violations. Now I read free speach as political and religious free speach or the speach of I think this is how things are, should be, etc In Porn there isn’t a lot of um thought that would be umm philsophical. Granted I think that it can be regulated without it haveing any relation to the first. WHat does SHE get out of this?
Flag three - “responsible network management” Now I had a beef with comcast on this policy. Basicly ComCast runs there bandwidth like the federal reserve runs our curency, Assume that you need X amount of money and if the needs are different you take out money or put in money. ComCast did the same we needed X amount of internet ComCast Contracted for As much as you need. ComCast didn’t pony the extra bandwidth that BitTorrent people otherwise know as miniservers use. So they Restricted it. Thus Breaking the Contract. So WHat is Her idea of Responsible? And WHy is she saying the Government gets to Manage this. WHat is she really going to Manage? Porn or Blogs and Talk Radio that can be labeled Political Porn. That right I just accused her of tring to take our First Amendment rights away. Watch her try. Otherwise why hid?
So we have the fairness doctrine through FCC could this be for the internet?
Flag Four- Shes Hideing this, hello, in a bill with no oversight, no names attached because they don’t want you to know whats in this bill she is trying to attach this in Confrence Committee, where not even Congress can raise a ralling cry. That ’s underhanded. Confrence Committee is to compromise not add new things out of Left feild.
4 flags Personal Foul on Reveiw for a total of 60 yards. Down in the endzone. Safety 2 points Player is ejected.

-Do it do it now! (say it with an Arnie Govenator accent it works better)
-But I can’t afford to enslave my children with this debt!
-This is an emergency. Do it for the greater good.
-But government never solves economic problems, it didn’t work out for the communists. Remember the extra 100,000,000,000 rubles in debt that collapsed there government right after they had a bad war in Afganistan. We Can’t Spend 800,000,000,000 to 950,000,000,000 more.
We just spent 850,000,000,000 on a failed Tarp program which is now run by a tax cheat. What else do we, are we, going to spend this year the normal 3.2 x 10^(10) dollars this year. I thought it was outragous when Bush did that. What war you mean we are still fighting a war too?
-Your listening to Rush Limbaugh! Stop it. Yes we Can! The Old Political arguments your useing don’t work anymore. Just trust me. Well raise taxes on the Wealthy, which means a tax cut for you little people.
-This is your new era of good feelings? Denagrate my honest views, tell me to hurry and accept this plan? Who am I to trust to carry out this spending? What strings are attached to this bill? Smart grid is great, but who controls it, and why do we have to decouple profits from sales?
-Do it Do It now! JOBS JOBS 500 million a month! Do it now.
-But this bill won’t create all that many jobs its mostly welfare?
Do it DO IT NOW!
-This bill feels good I mean all those people hurting but am I a sheep? Could there be a cliff ahead for my children.
-Do it Do IT NOW!
PS The Last gereration did this to me and saddled us will 7 trillion dollars in debt plus medicare and Social Security. That was before Clinton and Bush got into office. I am that child who is running off a cliff, I am 27. A lot of that money went to the freeways I enjoy and the Amry that protects me but most of it went to museiems and grain silos and abortion clinics and condoms and education (substandard) and well brigdes to noware. I ask again without the dialouge why are we doing this? Doing nothing sound a whole heck of a lot better. I don’t like being frog marched.
Earmarks are good? Sunday, Feb 8 2009
Uncategorized 12:28 am
Wow, thats an argument that I have never heard. It was a NPR article that was on the drudge report today. “Earmark-Free Stimulus Bill Lacks Spending Direction”
If there are no earmarks then congress isn’t responsible for the way the money is spent. “This wasn’t a very important decision” ” This is an emergency” Money will be spent badly if congress is not in control.
Wow That is an argument I have never heard. And I have been listening for 15 Years. Those statement blew me away.
My Gut reaction. Congress Earmarks are still bad because you couldn’t know how to spend the money. Whole founding fathers ideaolgy is distrust of the government. And I seen proof of that truth and the disasters of the fiscal policy of both Dems and Reps. I am actually glad the power is going local.
By the way the CBO says this bill will reduce GDP over the long term. Isn’t most of the spending in this bill long term. The only short term spending is welfare and tax cuts and about 5 billion in infrastructure.
Call your congressmen, all of them. No on this bill.
