Kagan Declines to say government has no power to tell Americans what to eat!

When asked to state whether the United States Constitution allows the Federal Government to mandate that people consume certain foods every day, Kagan would not say it did not. So much for the concept of “enumerated powers,” “limited government,” and the entire Constitution. Kagan has obviously no interest in the Constitution itself, merely her own power. What a disgrace to the concept of a Justice. Her view is judging by whim, not law.

Fascism at its best. Despots, tyrants, marxists, socialists and other dictators would love a woman who believed there was nothing the government couldn’t do – from ignoring the First Amendment to telling you what to eat.

Police taser 86-year-old grandma while in her bed!

From the police brutality and unbelievably stupid tax-trough feeder police file, police tasered an 86 year old grandma who was on oxygen and in a hospital bed.

The ten thugs, err police officers, entered her room and chief thug, defendant police officer Thomas Duran, stated the 86 year old “took a more aggressive posture in her bed,” and ordered her Tased.  El Reno police unions will no doubt protect the thugs, but they should be fired, and tried by the prosecutor.

No one will know until this is actually in place how it works. Christopher Dodd on the Financial Overhaul bill

“No one will know until this is actually in place how it works. But we believe we’ve done something that has been needed for a long time.”  Democrat Senator Christopher Dodd on the Financial Overhaul bill, June 25, 2010

Let’s get this straight.  It is “a great moment,” he is “proud to have been here,” he’s “done something that has been needed for a long time,” BUT NO ONE WILL KNOW HOW IT WORKS UNTIL IT IS IN PLACE.

What were the voters of Connecticut thinking when the elected and re-elected a clown like Senator Dodd?

Did anyone actually READ THE BILL?  After “20 messy, mind-numbing exhaustive hours” it certainly seems unlikely.

This from Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, tax cheat, Christopher Dodd, mortgage fraudster, and Barney Frank, tax cheat.   So, we’re letting people who cheated on their taxes regulate the rest of us.  No wonder things are bad.

Washington Post and “Retards” and “PaulTards”

Obama White House Chief of Staff called supporters “f-ing retard” and the Washington Post calls Ron Paul supporters “Paultards”  (“… pumping around the clock to get Paultard Tea Party people on TV.”)

You have to wonder about the low journalistic standards at the Washington Post.  Well, no, actually there is no need to wonder.  Classing the anti-freedom stenographers at the Washington Post “journalists” is an insult to true journalists.

“I don’t fully understand the movements in the gold price,” Ben Bernanke, Fed Chairman

“I don’t fully understand the movements in the gold price,” Ben Bernanke, Fed Chairman, June 14, 2010

What does it tell you about the Fed Chairman?  When the Federal Reserve was created one once of gold was worth $20.  Today an ounce of gold is worth $1200 [August 2012, it has been even $1600].  What does that tell you?  It does not tell you the value of gold has risen that much, but that the value of the dollar has fallen that much.

It tells you that the Federal Reserve has mismanaged the dollar so badly that one dollar has lost around 98% of its value through inflation.  Remember that inflation is a silent tax which falls hardest on those at the lowest end of the economic ladder.

 

Congressman Etheridge goes crazy and assaults student!

Democrat Congressman Bob Etheridge attacked a college student on a Washington street, here is the video:

While most people would be charged with assault and battery, one wonders how U.S. Rep. Bob Etheridge will get off.

And the Washington Post calls this a “hug“!  Now, if the Washington Post wanted to have any journalistic integrity, they would call it what it is instead of bending over backwards to try and protect this thug.  The Washington Post long ago lost any ability to be independent and is stuck in the “protect those in power” at any cost mindset.  A disgrace to a paper that in the past had some journalists working there instead of PR flacks.

What are the people of North Carolina thinking electing scum like Bob Etheridge to Congress?

Update:  Bob Etheridge has now issued a statement:

Washington, DC, Jun 14 – U.S. Rep. Bob Etheridge (D-Lillington) released the following statement on the viral video which appeared on the internet today: “I have seen the video posted on several blogs.  I deeply and profoundly regret my reaction and I apologize to all involved.  Throughout my many years of service to the people of North Carolina, I have always tried to treat people from all viewpoints with respect. No matter how intrusive and partisan our politics can become, this does not justify a poor response.  I have and I will always work to promote a civil public discourse.” Rep. Bob Etheridge (NC-02)

“I have and I will always work to promote a civil public discourse.”  Rep Etheridge, does “civil public discourse” include attacking people?  Etheridge is a joke.
