A Political Theme Song for the Obama Generation

There I was completely wasting, out of work and down
All inside its so frustrating as I drift from town to town
Feel as though nobody cares if I live or die
So I might as well begin to put some action in my life

Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law



So much for the golden future, I cant even start
Ive had every promise broken, theres anger in my heart
You dont know what its like, you dont have a clue
If you did youd find yourselves doing the same thing too**

Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law

You dont know what its like

Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law

Breaking the law


** "We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek. We are the hope of those boys who have little; who've been told that they cannot have what they dream; that they cannot be what they imagine. "

The WH, The NEA, ACORN, 'Cool' People, and Serve.Gov Go into a bar...

The crew over at Big Hollywood and Big Goverment continued the fight today.

Further exposing the incestuous nature of the modern Progressive Left in America, John Nolte details the soon to be infamous conference call between the White House Office of Public Engagement, the NEA's Communications Director, Serve.gov Director of Outreach, and a list of hand picked artists/trend setters/just plain "cool" people.

In it he paints a picture of the not so subtle desire of the Obama Administration to have a PR hit squad that even Joseph Goebbels would be proud of.

All evidence points to the fact that the conference call was a ruse, a front for a White House using Skolnik as a kind of beard in order to put an innocent spin on their abuse of the NEA and two non-partisan volunteer organizations (United We Serve – an initiative overseen by The Corporation for National and Community Service – a federal agency, and the White House’ Office of Public Engagement).


The goal: To motivate a group of hand-picked pro-Obama artists (grant recipients or those wanting grants) to push the President’s flagging agenda, especially health care — and to funnel this promotion through the ACORN related- Serve.gov website.

I am not a lawyer and certainly won't attempt to debate the illegality of this call and the greater relationship that exists. There are others who have already done that and come to the conclusion that "laws were broken"...

All of this – particularly the government-sponsored conference call itself – is in blatant violation of the Anti-Lobbying Act (19 U.S. Code §1913), which explicitly provides: “No part of the money appropriated by any enactment of Congress shall, in the absence of express authorization by Congress, be used directly or indirectly to pay for any personal service, advertisement, telegram, telephone, letter, printed or written matter, or other device, intended or designed to influence in any manner a Member of Congress, a jurisdiction, or an official of any government, to favor, adopt, or oppose by vote or otherwise, any legislation, law, ratification, policy, or appropriation, whether before or after the introduction of any bill, measure or resolution proposing such legislation, law, ratification, policy or appropriation …”

[snip...]

Violation of the Anti-Lobbying Act carries punishment: “Any person who makes an expenditure … shall be subject to a civil penalty of not less than $10,000 and not more than $100,000 for each such expenditure.” And that’s not all: “An imposition of a civil penalty under this subsection does not prevent the United States from seeking any other remedy that the United States may have for the same conduct that is the basis for the imposition of such civil penalty.” In other words, criminal prosecution is available here.

Who am I to disagree. ;^)

I wonder if any of this will be covered by ABC, CBS, NBC, MSDNC, CNN, or any of those soon to be subsidized birdcage liners Bambi is thinking he like to buy and manipulate.

You want Conservatives to come back in 2010...Open your wallet

That is all.

Know Your Emission Recognition

Our planet has contracted a virus worse than H1N1, worse than the plague, even worse than Global Warming or the more flexible Climate Change. Our planet has contracted a bad case of stupidity, and it's going to get us all killed*.

For years we have heard that Global warming is going to drown us all as the glaciers melt and the seas rise. For years we have been told that we are the problem. We have been told that CO2 emissions are the culprit. Our cars are too big, they put out too much CO2. They are killing the planet.

Really?


Well the IPCC and Owl Gore would love us to believe that. Thing is...it just ain't true.

The hockey stick graph has been debunked, 10-12 years of Global temperature drops have proven it to be a false prediction. The computer models have failed.


The revelation of these facts will not deter those who are committed to the Church of Climate Change. No. The true believers are gathering, as we speak, to perform a concert for Climate Change.

55 Superstars, entourage in tow, plan to sing in order to stop Climate Change.

So, let me get this straight. In order to "save the planet" these idiots want to have approx 51000** people travel on private jets, commercial flights, cars, buses and many other modes of CO2 spewing transportation in order to watch 55 bands spew even more CO2 from their mouths while listening to songs not seen on the top 40 since Global Cooling was a big deal.

Let me be the first to say....GREEN FAIL

* Maybe it won't kill us, but stupidity certainly isn't going to help us.

** Here is how I got to 51000
55*4=220 Full Band
55*10=550 Roadies for Band.
50000 fans in attendance est.
100 promoters est.
50 vendors est.

Pat Toomey needs your help.

We have a chance to reclaim Arlen Specter's seat in 2010. Specter is in a primary challenge after his recent conversion to the Democratic Party. Hopefully Sestak will bloody Specter up. The battle wounds Specter will recieve should not be relied on to guarantee success though.

The people know the issues and they also know the direction they want to take to address these issues, see Rasmussen for details.

Healthcare is the issue of the moment. Healthcare is the Democratic Party's Waterloo.


Pat Toomey understands this. Knowing this Toomey has embarked on a fundraising initiative, focused on Healthcare, named Toomsday.

Please join our effort to have 1,000 people pledge to donate $30 by September 30th to stop government-run health care. This deadline so important that we are calling it Toomsday and need your help to sign up your family and friends or share this page.

Help Pat Toomey fight against Government Run Healthcare. Help Pat Toomey take PA back.
