			<description>Where Is The Obama Birth Certificate?



Where is the Certificate?



While many chalk up the Obama Birth Certificate question as Urban Legend, seems the same old questions are becoming more popular than before the election. Is this as preposterous as the White House would like us to accept? You have to wonder why Mr. Obama has employed a team of legal guru’s to continue the deception and cover-up of any of his footprints. For a man who holds the highest office in the nation, where are  ...</description>

The day that the Senate votes on whether or not the 2000 page Health Care &quot;Reform&quot; bill gets to be opened up for discussion on the Senate floor.



Most experts agree that if the bill gets the 60 votes needed today just to be opened up for discussion, then it will almost certainly get the 50 votes needed to be passed in the future.



This bill WILL affect EVERY one of us whether we like it or not.

AP



WASHINGTON – Big job losses and a spike in early retirement claims from laid-off seniors will force Social Security to pay out more in benefits than it collects in taxes the next two years, the first time that's happened since the 1980s.



The deficits — $10 billion in 2010 and $9 billion in 2011 — won't affect payments to retirees because Social Security has accumulated surpluses from previous years totaling $2.5 trillion.  ...</description>

WASHINGTON -



The national stimulus package passed by Congress in February may have been too enthusiastic about spending money on one particular project: figuring out where broadband Internet access is available and how fast it is.



The $787 billion stimulus bill championed by the Obama administration set aside up to $350 million to create a national broadband map that could guide policies aimed at expanding high-speed Internet access.  ...</description>

Government sent 3,900 economic stimulus checks to prison inmates -- 2,200 got to keep them



    

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The federal government sent about 3,900 economic stimulus payments of $250 each this spring to people who were in no position to use the money to help stimulate the economy: prison inmates.



The checks were part of the massive economic recovery package approved by Congress and President Barack Obama in February. About 52 million  ...</description>

WASHINGTON – The Senate voted to terminate further production of the Air Force's topline F-22 fighter jets Tuesday, giving President Barack Obama a major spending victory and siding with the Pentagon's desire for smaller jets better suited to 21st century wars.



F-22 supporters complained the action would be a blow to long-term national defense — and cost thousands of jobs in the middle of the recession.

WASHINGTON – Republicans lined up Sunday in opposition to a second economic stimulus package, a rare demonstration of unity from an out-of-power political party in search of a rallying cry against President Barack Obama.



Republicans called Obama's $787 billion spending plan a &quot;flop&quot; and said it hasn't fulfilled its hype. They criticized the White House for increasing the federal deficit and doing little to combat an  ...</description>

			<description>A friend sent this to me and I thought I'd post it up here as a reminder.



So, Let's Recap--



1. The American people elected a black president with a total of 142 days experience as a US Senator from the most politically corrupt state in America whose governor is ousted from office. The President's first official act was to order the close of Gitmo and make sure terrorists civil rights are not violated.

(He screwed up!!)

This is a good one!!!!!!!!!!!

The shoe is on the other foot and the Mexicans from Sonora don't like it. Can you believe the nerve of these people? It's almost funny.



The State of Sonora is angry at the influx of Mexicans into Mexico. Nine state legislators from the Mexican state of Sonora traveled to

Tucson to complain about Arizona 's new employer crackdown on illegals from Mexico.

It seems that many Mexican illegals are now returning  ...</description>

AIG bailout --- ?????



Remember when this economic crisis hit, and Congress let Bear Sterns go under,  pushed a bunch of forced marriages between banks, etc.? 



Then they bailed out AIG.  At the time, I thought: &quot;That's strange. 

What does an insurance company have to do with this crisis?&quot; 



I think I just found the answer.  Among other things, AIG INSURES THE PENSION TRUST OF THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS!!

			<description>As predicted here, the Obama administration intends to put a new Assault Weapons Ban (AWB) on the fast track. Those of us who believe in the Constitution of the United States and our inherent right to protect ourselves, our families, and our property, will soon be forced to choose between our beliefs and support for a corrupt, liberty destroying government. In short, in their eyes, we will become criminals.

			<description>Well ladies and gentlemen last night the &quot;Economic Stimulus Bill&quot; passed the house. In this wonderful pork bill .12 cents of every $1, is for something that can plausibly be considered a growth stimulus. Where is the other .88 cents of every dollar going? Here is some of what our elected representatives voted for in the 647-page $825 billion Stim Bill:



    * $1 billion for Amtrak, the federal railroad that hasn't turned a profit in 40 years

    * $2 billion for child-care subsidies

I saw this on the news this morning. I don't think it will ever fly here but we're one of only two countries that haven't signed it.
