Time Out for OT – Vol 9

Corporate CEO’s complain President Obama is hostile to business.

DUUUUUUUUUUHHH! I forget, but didn’t someone once say,

Let them without sin cast the first stone.

How about,

People who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.

This just appeared in todays Washington post.

Why am I not surprised by this? Could it be that being a baby boomer and after living through the terror of the Cold War, I’ve become cold and callous and lost my idealism? I hope not.

The washington Post just lit up the comment boards on Huff post with this,

It does seem that the republican leadership in congress is having a difference of opinion with their minions. The November election is too close to call. Even if the republicans do take control of congress they still risk becoming irrelevant. My personal opinion is that Rahm Emanuel already has a strategy to deal with a republican controled congress.

It’s all about mass production at the lowest possible cost. That’s why the Chinese have targeted Africa as a source for the minerals and rare earth elements necessary to produce elctronic devices. These substances are present in every continent. The problem is African nations have few if any environmental laws. Laws that raise the price of these substances elsewhere. And a boycott will have little or no effect since the Chinese produce most of these products.

Tax cutting resonates with the electorate.

The democratic mantra needs to be “targeted tax cuts” for middle class workers earning less than $250,000 a year. Along with an Economics 101 class. Across the board tax cuts target the top 2% of the economic class. So not only does the government have to borrow money to cover across the board tax cuts, but then what happens with all that money? DUUUUUUUUHH! It goes into buying bonds to finance the debt the government takes on to finance the across the board tax cuts. Long term interest rates stay flat or decrease, making mortgages cheaper, and promoting a building boom.

Haven’t we all seen this movie before starring Ronnie Raygun, Bush 1, and Bush 2?

This was posted on The Nation magazine. It has some very interesting statistics about Sister Sarah Palin’s “Mama Grizzly” video.

Apparently, her use of social media to get her message out doesn’t have that grizzly growl.

OK, I admit I had to do a search for “Dorigo.”
Is he yelling “WOLF?” I think it’s more like “puppy.” Here is his blog.

That’s because the CIA has infiltrated the tea bag partiers and is putting prozac in the tea bags.

President Obama is in Las Vegas today with senate majority leader Harry Reid gambling that his political capital will help Reid in a tough fight against tea bag partier Sharron Angle. Hopefully in November the President and Senator Reid will hit the jackpot.

American Exceptionalism

One would think these people have nothing better to do than fear monger at the expense of the truth. Looking at their web site it’s obvious they are tea bag partiers and are not only drinking the ice tea but are taking a bath in it.
It’s obvious that the tea bag partiers drinking the ice tea are pushing their “American Exceptionalism” crap. It will be interesting to see how this plays out in November. Now how can they explain this,

I got this off of Huff Post. There is something wrong with this. It could be that Utah is selling concealed weapons permits to anyone who can pass a background check just to get the fee.

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/07/06/us/06guns.html?_r=1&hp

At the end of July in Arizona, anyone, except convicted felons, can carry a concealed weapon within the state of Arizona without a permit. I’m not crazy about this. At least to get the permit you have to know the laws and you have to show proficiency with a gun.

Being a Pantheist and believer in the Anthropic Principle, the new atheists don’t float my boat, but it’s sad to hear this.

I’ve never seen the movie but I read the book. Margaret Atwood’s new sci fi novel is very good. It’s called “Year of the Flood.” I couldn’t put it down.

I researched my own question. From wikipedia:

“On October 3, 2008 Rep. Boehner voted in favor of the Troubled Asset Relief Program[12] believing that the enumerated powers grant congress the authority to “purchase assets and equity from financial institutions in order to strengthen its financial sector.”

Does anybody know if Boehner voted for the first TARP in 2007?

Thanks, but I don’t have cable or satellite TV. How can I get to this dust up on CNBC using the net?

I think this woman needs to go fry some bacon while nude.

Republican leadership in the House of Representatives lights up the comment boards on Huff Post.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/06/29/john-boehner-accuses-demo_n_629265.html

They just don’t get it. Cutting the social safety net to pay for bad decisions made by political and business leaders is not how to win votes.

Does the Bacon Soap help after one has cooked bacon while nude?

This woman is an overindulged, infantile, media mongerer living in a fantasy world.

Of course “Deus ex machina” -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deus_ex_machina – was a plot device created by the ancient Greeks so that when the plot in a tragedy became unsolvable the writer could concoct a happy ending. Here is what Aristotle had to say about it.

“Irrationalities should be referred to what people say: that is one solution, and also sometimes that it is not irrational, since it is probable that improbable things will happen.”

Our favorite teflon ex-governor of the State of Alaska lights up the comment boards on Huff Post again.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/06/24/sarah-palin-defense-fund_n_624833.html

The article says that even though the first legal defense fund she set up before resigning was illegal, she set up another legal defense fund today as a private citizen. So tell me Sister Sarah of the Frozen north, how does someone who makes $12 million in one year need a legal defense fund?

Living in northern Arizona only 30 miles from Nevada I’m constantly tempted. For me though resisting temptation is easy.

No Mon. No Fun.

When I lived in Vermont there was a 6.9 earthquake centered around Chicoutimi, Quebec. This was in the mid 1980’s so it had to be 20-25 years ago. It was felt as far south as Boston and New York City. I hardly noticed it but I was living in the Vermont ski country about 300 miles from the epicenter.

This brought out all the tea bag party whackos on Huff Post.

He is a democrat running in the Arizona primary. So me being a moderate centrist Arizonan, I was interested.

When one of the tea bag partiers tried to bait me about illegal immigration, the moderator refused to post my replies so I told the moderator I was logging off and probably wouldn’t return to Huff Post for a while.
