Obama; Old Application Phony, New One Intrusive

Have you seen some of the latest information on the messianic president elect? We have yet to see a vault copy of his birth certificate and now it appears as if he lied about his Selective Service registration. Not only did Obama lie about the date he registered (it could have been a mistake) but it appears as if he was registered in 1980 on a form that did not exist until 2008.

The Obama kool aid drinkers love to claim that his COLB was proof enough of his US birth but a copy of the original was never displayed. However, the Selective Service registration is a handwritten copy and it appears as if one of two things happened. Either Obama signed the form in 2008 or someone filled out the form for him and signed it illegally. The form has the date of 1980 but one of the form’s numbers indicates it is the 2008 version of the form. There are other inconsistencies such as the incorrect postal stamp which indicates a postal abbreviation not used since the 1970s. Did Obama or his surrogates backdate a form and sign it to hide the fact that Obama did not register with the Selective Service?

Debbie Schlusselhas the SS form up at her site and lists all the problems with the form. It definitely appears as if someone broke the law in order to cover for the messiah. Please visit Debbie’s site and review all the information. The Obamabots can deny this all they want but someone has committed fraud and has some explaining to do.

Interestingly, forms are also in the front of the Obama transition. Barack Obama has a 7 page, 63 question application that he intends to use to weed out problems and potential embarrassments. The ironic thing about the application is, Obama could not get a job in his own administration if he had to fill one out. There are questions about domestic help that might not be here legally (but no questions about relatives in the same predicament) as well as this gem that would certainly disqualify the sainted one:

“Have you ever had any association with any person, group or business venture that could be used–even unfairly–to impugn or attack your character and qualifications for government service?” (page 7, question 61).

We all know of Obama’s past associations and they could all be used fairly to disqualify him. The only thing that even allowed these associations to die a quick death without injuring the messiah is the fact that the media ignored the associations or made light of them. Bill Ayers was no big deal but, of course, he is a hot commodity now.

Obama also asks an interesting question that sheds light on his anti gun positions. Obama asks if the applicant or anyone in the applicant’s immediate family owns a gun. Why is this important with regard to a job in his administration? I believe that Barack Obama will now shed his serpent’s skin and show us the true anti gun person who dwells beneath. Obama does not want anyone in his administration who owns guns because he plans on mounting the most aggressive anti gun crusade in the history of this country.

Of course, he could just want to exclude Republicans…

The questionnaire probes applicants more deeply than Obama was probed when he ran to lead the country. Obama asks questions that would exclude him from serving in his own administration and he shows us what he plans with regard to gun ownership. I wonder why he feels it is necessary to know more about those who want to work with him than he was willing to display when he ran for the presidency. One thing is certain, hypocrisy runs deep in Obama land.

Read James Taranto’s piece in the WSJ.

The Obama SS scandal did not hit until after he was elected because the media was in the tank for him. If they had done their jobs, he might not have been elected.

He is not even in office yet and already we have an idea of how intrusive he will be just by looking at what it takes to work for him.

Chicago Is The Murder Capital

Chicago is led by a bunch of corrupt politicians who believe that gun control is the answer to the problem of violence. In reality, politicians only want gun control for one reason. If they take away the guns people will no longer have the means to resist. Government becomes tyrannical and people become enslaved when they have no means to exercise their will upon the members of government. People need a means to resist, should government go bad.

In Chicago they have some of the most stringent gun laws in the country and yet their murder rates are above New York and Los Angeles. In fact, Chicago is outpacing all the other US cities for the king of murder title. Of course not all murders are committed with guns. The bulk of them are and the rest might never have been committed had the victim been armed.

Barack Obama is anti-gun, of that there is no doubt. He is running as more moderate than he is (and more moderate than he was in the primary) trying to fool people into believing that he favors individual ownership of firearms but he absolutely does not. Bills that Obama helped pass in Illinois are responsible for the murders taking place in Chicago.

Interestingly, the cities with the highest murder rates have the most stringent gun control and have populations that are overwhelmingly registered as Democrats and whose legislatures are mostly Democrat. Baltimore, New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, and on and on. Everywhere there are dense populations of liberals, run by liberals, you have murder and mayhem.

Criminals do not obey the law. A simple fact that seems to escape liberals and their gun control measures. In places with gun control there is more crime and more murder because criminals do not follow the law. In places where people are allowed to exercise their Second Amendment rights there are few murders and the murders are not committed by the law abiding gun owners.

Keep Chicago in mind when you go into the voting booth. Keep in mind that the police are a reactive force not a proactive. If they showed up before crimes took place we would not need guns but the fact is they show up after crimes have taken place.

We have a name for people who blindly follow anti-gun policies of people like Barack Obama:

Victim.

Pelosi’s Ethical Congress

Nancy Pelosi made the same claim that every political leader of Congress makes and that is their version of the mob will be the most ethical in history. They are usually going to be the most open as well. Turns out that Pelosi’s reign is not over an ethical Democratic Congress but one that is full of abusers and law breakers. The past few years have seen the likes of Dodd, and Jefferson and now we have Charlie Rangel.

Rangel has been a criminal fro a long time. He wastes taxpayer money driving around in an expensive leased vehicle that the taxpayers get soaked for. He has more than the number of rent control apartments than he is allowed by law and he now has troubles with his taxes. Rangel owns property in the Dominican Republic and is facing an ethics investigation (as if that will matter) for evasion of taxes (related to income from the property), failure to report income and failure to disclose required items on his financial disclosure statement.

Rangel is chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee which means he has a lot to do with the tax laws in this country. Somehow, he was unable to follow the laws that he helped get passed. His finances are so messed up that he has had to hire a forensics accountant to figure out the problems.

Rangel is not being removed from his position. Why would he be? He is a Democrat so he is allowed to break the law and get away with it. Speaker Pelosi, Ms. more ethical Congress, is not (at least so far) removing him from his position. Republicans have a rule that if they are under investigation they must step down until it is over. The ethical Democrats have no such rule or their would not be enough of them left to run things.

Charlie Rangel has also said that he just had trouble with the language difference (as if he could not find someone in Harlem to interpret it). He is willing to pay what he owes and let’s be done with it.

Not so fast. If one of us had this problem the IRS would be bashing through our doors like a SWAT team and raping us with interest and penalties until we were left bankrupt. We would not be allowed to say we had trouble understanding anything. We would not be able to say “my bad” and just pay the taxes. No, we would get screwed to the wall.

I expect nothing less for the guy who is in charge of the tax rules. He needs to go down in flames. Pelosi needs to remove him from his position and he needs to be thoroughly scrutinized. He also needs to pay back taxes with interest and penalties no matter how much it adds up to.

This should take care of that arrogant jackass and it should remind the rest of them they are not above the law.

Wanna bet Pelosi does not remove him?

FWIW, I know there are Republicans who have problems. I want them in hot water as well.

Plans for New Orleans

I have a post up comparing the response of citizens in Iowa to those of New Orleans and in it I make a comparison of the cultural differences that left those in New Orleans in dire straights, pointing their fingers at the federal government and crying racism to the Iowans, who are having problems such as looting, and how they reacted to the crisis there.

I was flamed by a bunch of people who live in New Orleans and who blame the entire issue on the federal government and the Corps of Engineers who built the levees poorly and caused the whole issue. Not one of the commenters defending New Orleans could find one issue that lays some of the blame on the corrupt government pervasive in Louisiana and particularly present in New Orleans. New Orleans was not that bad. It could not have been if William Jefferson had time to take military vehicles and soldiers away from rescue mission in order to go check on his house and remove the bribe money he had in his freezer. He had time to do all that and then leave without checking on the people affected by the flood. Ray Nagin stayed in a hotel in the fetal position and Governor Blanco cried on TV. Neither of them was on the ground in NO directing things.

Things could not have been that bad since all the cops stopped what they were doing and helped the looters and then left town. Certainly things could not be too bad if the cops could leave. Let’s fault everyone else for not getting there immediately and helping out when those sworn to stay and help, left.

Of course, what happened there was a tragedy. It was caused by many things and there is plenty of blame to go around. I know it sucks but I did not do it, I did not cause it, I did not abandon anyone and I did not commit crimes after it. Even though I had nothing to do with it happening my tax dollars have been sent there to fix it (not only mine but a lot of people’s). I said at the time they needed to watch every penny like a hawk because it would be spent on non flood related items. Mary Landreau submitted a 400+ page request that had us paying for alligator farms in areas NOT affected by the storm. I guess she figured she could use the tragedy and our generosity to gussy up the place. When your major concern after such an incident is having Mardi Gras, you have priority issues.

I felt sorry for the people when this happened but to tell the truth I am tired of hearing all the whining about it from those living there. They have enough time to type on their computers perhaps they should spend it working. I know 90% of the people got out and did what is right and it might seem unfair for me to paint with a broad brush based on the 10% who did not. However, a lot of people certainly painted the government with a broad brush based on the failure of about 10% of the people. No other state affected by Katrina is getting rebuilt any faster and I don’t hear them crying. I did not hear them then.

Here is my plan for New Orleans. Bulldoze the place in. Fill it wil concrete or dirt. It would be best if they dug a ditch across the southern border and pushed all the dirt into New Orleans and let the water back fill the ditch. Fill the ditch with alligators and that will keep the ILLEGAL immigrants down. Filling in New Orleans will keep it from getting flooded again. Then, they can build a city inland where it is above sea level.

Other than that, I don’t want to hear about all their problems. I did not cause them and about now I don’t care about them.

Pizza Hut Employee Suspended for Defending Self

A Pizza Hut employee from Iowa was suspended “until police sort out the details” in a shooting incident. The details are pretty straight forward. A woman, an accomplice of a criminal, placed a order for a pizza. The delivery man, James William Spiers, attempted to deliver the pizza when he was confronted by a man who put a gun to his head. Spiers, who has a permit to carry a handgun, grabbed the assailant’s gun and pulled his own weapon. The attacker was shot three times.

When police arrived at the scene Spiers placed his hands in the air and dropped to his knees and told the police that he had both weapons in his pockets. So far no charges have been filed but Pizza Hut has suspended Spiers. The company has a policy against carrying a weapon, even for those who have a permit to carry one. Pizza Hut believes that denying its employees the right to self defense is the safest policy. As this incident shows, a no weapons policy kept Spiers from being attacked…

I understand that Pizza Hut is allowed to make policy and if Spiers broke the rule the company has a right to fire him. I also believe that the company has a duty to keep its employees safe. It appears that Spiers was the only one interested in his personal safety.

I rarely buy pizza from Pizza Hut. If they end up firing Spiers I will never buy anything from them and I encourage all Second Amendment supporters to do the same.

Pizza Hut officials would have felt better if Spiers had been shot to death so long as he was not carrying a handgun. One of his fellow employees stated:

Howe’s co-worker Kimberly Babis said Spiers should not have been armed on the job, no matter what the safety concern. She said most drivers have the right to refuse a delivery if they feel it could pose danger.

“I don’t understand why the pizza delivery guy had a gun,” she said. “And even if the other guy was trying to rob him, it’s a measly 20 bucks. At least that’s how much our drivers have on them.” Des Moines Register

This attitude is what allows students at colleges like Virginia Tech to become victims. It is the attitude that allows patrons of malls to become victims and it is the attitude that allows crime to blossom. Just submit and they will leave you alone.

James Spiers is alive today because he refused to be a victim. If he loses a job over this then at least he is still alive to find another job.
