Stop the LIES Whitehouse

The latest from POTUS was "...if the debt ceiling isn't raised, I can't be sure that Social Security checks go out..", well here are the facts:

Monthly the US brings in over 200B in revenue

Social Security costs $49B per month

Military (all active, reserve, retired) costs $5B per month


Please explain to me how these entities do not get paid, regardless of a debt ceiling? What the Administration is doing, completely, is taking an old play from the Republican party, causing panic. The Administration wants the nation in fear, because they have the FED in their back pocket. The Fed announced today that Interest rates will stay where they are for an extended period of time and that more money could be pumped into the economy (say Hi to HUGE inflation numbers in the next 5 years).

This is nothing more than class-warfare based fear, that is all. POTUS is pinning the "middle-class" whoever they are, against the "rich"..you know, those making $250K (not sure how that is rich). This Administration is completely delusional when it comes to foreign and economic policies. Anyone, regardless of party, who can't say that they are screwing things up, is drinking too much Kool-Aid.

Something we need to realize as a nation is that "We the People.." are not responsible for assuring that the social objectives of less than 500 people are funded. That is not OUR responsibility. Remember, CITIZEN, it is all fun and games until the bill shows up on your door.

Fox News or CNN?

Ah, Fox and CNN. Where to start. Each one has its own bias. I was, for a very very long time an avid CNN viewer, literally the TV would be on CNN when I got home from work and stay there. Until the 2008 elections. I could not believe how much CNN backed the Democratic party. Almost to a point of annoyance. For every on RNC member on a panel there would be 2 DNC, usually one black man and one woman. The RNC person was almost always a white male. What I couldn't believe was the entire lack of respect for the opposing candidates on the Republican side. Now before you go "damn right-wing Republican" understand these FACTS: - Member of the Democratic Party - Libertarian - NRA Life Member What does that equal? Me. Not a single word up there said Republican. In fact, I've never voted for a presidential republican candidate. Maybe my lack of line loyalty allows me to have an open mind where others seen inherently sheltered. I have very strict guidelines for leaders; 1) be hon...
