I'm The Bad Guy?

At the end of the movie Falling Down the Michael Douglas character asks this question. He just could not fathom how he was the one being portrayed as the bad guy. My friends and I always joke around using this line but here and now it is very serious. Much like the character I cannot fathom, in this day and age, how a racist becomes president and then be allowed to nominate a racist that assuredly will be confirmed to the Supreme Court for a lifetime. Those of us on the right are being portrayed as racist because the nominee is a latina even though we oppose her on on intellectual grounds or her lack thereof. Dude, I could give a shit if she was three headed quadruple amputee with the blood of every nation running through her veins. I do not see race, no one on the right sees race, only liberals categorize people because it is easier to rule over them that way. This Roseanne Barr looking (I do see ugly though)America hater is as racist as he is but even worse she is as socialist as he is. Now there is not one republican in the world with the balls to call this spade a spade for fear of being called a racist or a bigot. Real men would stand up and fight this fight on racial grounds and her judicial record because both are a joke. The Supreme Court has over ruled this retard 5 out of 6 times how can she possibly, seriously be a part of The Court?!?!?! She has no idea how to apply the rule of law she only knows how to apply what is going on in her pathetic little mind and trying to make it law and call it a precedent. Hey, puta the legislative branch makes laws not the judicial.

When is enough, enough? Seriously people when is this fucking country going to wake up and see the internal threats? Oh that is right I am just some crazy right-wing(thank you) kook who warned you people that obama was not the centrist portrayed in the media during the campaign and everyday it gets worse and just proves me right. It is bad enough that we have 2 five foot short third world Asian dictators trying to destroy us now we also have an asshole and and alll of his administration officials trying to destroy us to build a new America in their own image with their new rules; think George Orwell's Animal Farm . They hope to change everything that was bad in the past and at the same time destroy the good. I am just going to come out and say it these people were not raised in normal situations they hate everything we hold dear. He was not even raised here and she was raised in the south Bronx. Have you been to the south Bronx? What has she even done to improve it? Would you live there given the chance? No you would not, just like you would not live in the south side of Chicago where obama was a community organizer. They do not give a crap about God or country they care only about themselves and their careers. You know I have not been fired up in a while but these two assholes have got my fires burning again. She says that she is better suited for the job than a white guy because of her experiences. Really I do not think that anyone with a latino surname drafted, debated or signed the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution or the Bill of Rights. Nor do I think that anyone with an islamic middle name and/or african did either. What I do know is that South and Central America are in chaos with most countries been ruled by idiot leftists or dictators or both and Africa and islamic countries are rules by kings, dictators or both or no one at all that has led to multiple genocides continentwide . Your peoples have done a great job in these places by throwing out the white man and returning the country's wealth to its rightful owners. I'm the racist? I'm the bad guy?

Memorial Day

"There'll be two dates on your tombstone
And all your friends will read 'em
But all that's gonna matter is that little dash between 'em..."



Thank You.

Oil Prices

The price of gas here in northern New Jersey has risen (as it always does around Memorial Day) to roughly $2.20 per gallon. Now as I watch CNBC right now Crude Oil is $60.87 per barrel. Now when that bad bad George Bush and even worse Dick Cheney were in the White House and gas here rose to roughly $4.00 per gallon crude oil was at $150.00 per barrel. Now I understand that I went to public high school but by simple mathematics $2.00 gasoline should reflect a crude price of $75.00. Now I may be crazy but weren't all the media reports last spring and summer all about how George Bush and Dick Cheney were just paying back all of their cronies in the oil industries. Well of course that is just another busted myth about Bush/Cheney because gas is more expensive under Obama. But why and who is he trying to payoff? But of course the main stream media will not investigate this conundrum because it does not benefit them and if they did and found a connection it would ruin the one guy they have so much invested in. Or maybe it is just the market at work, holy good crap who would have thought of that?

But of course Bush was letting the oil companies make record profits it had absolutely nothing to do with the fact that 300+ million people in this country have places to go and the money to pay to get there. The government wants to cut emissions output but no matter and they are going to do it by forcing us into the shitty little putt-putt mobiles discussed in the last post. If you remember the campaign when Obama said he did not mind $4.00 gasoline he just did not like how fast we got to it. $4.00 gas sucks but if you don't like it refine your own crude or buy an electric car but be assured, your electric bill will rise because of recharging. Of course he will have to raise taxes on your electric bill to compensate for lost oil taxes. So as gas rises like it does every summer due to demand, keep in mind this post and do a little simple math and figure whether or not your boy Obama is raising taxes on gasoline. After all how else is the price going to get to $4.00 being that he does not owe anything to anyone the in oil biz? So as usual, in a centrally planned economy, those of us with money will have to pay for those without, and the bailouts and the administration's social experimentation, it is just more fair that way. Are you ready to spill blood for oil yet?

American Car Companies

So this past Sunday I watched America die away. I watched the Mecum spring auction, I had no idea what this was. I soon learned it was a car auction I, not being a "car guy" would usually give two shits but this one was different. There were no Dusenbergs, or Astin-Martins, or Ferrari. It was just good old American muscle cars Mopar, Chevies and Fords form the 60's and 70's these were the cars I used to dream about as a teenager. GTOs, 442s, big block 69 Camaros most with cheesy racing stripes. I began to watch and remember the first time I had wanted to drive these cars in my youth, the closest I ever got was a brown Oldsmobile Cutlass with a 350 four barrel nice yes but it was no 442. Plus it smelled like flowers due to it being owned but my grandmother before I got it. It had get up but the cars at this auction were the epitome of get up. They will always be the cool cars to anyone who saw them in their heyday, their sound was unique a low rumbling that was unmistakable, they actually had a smell because catalytic converters were not mandatory yet. I will never forget that smell, it all came back watching this auction. These kids today who love Obama and all he stands for have no idea what a muscle car is or should sound like. Hey guys it sure as shit is NOT a rice burner that sounds like a lawnmower. There was a dark side to this auction though, we will never see these cars or anything like them ever again. Now we have CAFE standards that set limits on how much power we can have in our cars (they are trying to expand that to our daily lives to be sure) thus eliminating any chance of big block V-8s rumbling on our streets again. America used to dream big and build big cars with big badass engines, it was a simple statement saying we are king of the mountain. Now we apologize for our aggrandizement of ourselves and our feeling about our nation you can keep your prius and your smart cars I will never buy anything that does not have eight cylinders, I am a pick-up guy.

Now I did not want the car companies bailed out just like I did not want Wall Street bailed out. But this is way worse he is running the car companies and literally giving them to the unions. Understand this: if the car companies go out of business for whatever reason; greedy union members, bad management shoddy union work, inferior quality because of a union workers who does not care because he/she cannot be fired, too expensive for what you are getting, whatever reason. If they fail the unions get nothing except what ever debt they hold which was around 11% before Obama stepped in and handed the unions 55% of Chrysler and 38% of GM. The he tried to demonize and strong arm actual debt holders who were screwed out of what they were owed under the law. Hey asshole you just invalidated every fucking contract in America with this plan but of course I know this has been your plan all along. Send America into a shit storm of financial confusion so you can seize control of private assets for the government and unions. Changing us from a Capitalist, market driven republic to a central planned, fascist "People's" republic. A utopia of price controls for cars, gasoline, health care, credit cards, mortgages and sacrifices for all except, of course, government workers. Check it out, the government will grow its payroll and not sacrifice anything. This is administration's M.O. This time there will be no stopping it, unless...

We Are All In This Together

You know I always thought that as America progressed through time and people became more enlightened that my faith in our founding documents would be seen to cover all Americans. Apparently I was mistaken, the more research I do the more I come to understand that that Obama voters (along with the man himself) could give a shit less about them. I always look at things as America against the world and with that we are all in this fight together but no matter who is president there will always be assholes who hate first no matter what. Americans are free to shop where they want but why wouldn't you want to shop in your own community and keep it strong or help it grow? Do these people live in a white neighborhood and have to drive to black owed businesses? That would be hypocritical, yes? I wonder why we don't read about their neighborhood in this article. I guess it did not fit with the message they are trying to send. As usual liberals are the ones who look at and for skin color. A sad state of things to be sure. Thanks Barack you are doing a bang up job bringing America together.

Chicago Family's 'Buy Black' Experiment Becoming a Nationwide Movement
Tuesday, May 12, 2009

April 16, 2009: Maggie Anderson, talks with Michael Hill at the black-owned Vino Libro wine bar in Atlanta.

ATLANTA — It's been two months since 2-year-old Cori pulled the gold stud from her left earlobe, and the piercing is threatening to close as her mother, Maggie Anderson, hunts for a replacement.

It's not that the earring was all that rare — but finding the right store has become a quest of Quixotic proportions.

Maggie and John Anderson of Chicago vowed four months ago that for one year, they would try to patronize only black-owned businesses. The "Empowerment Experiment" is the reason John had to suffer for hours with a stomach ache and Maggie no longer gets that brand-name lather when she washes her hair. A grocery trip is a 14-mile odyssey.

"We kind of enjoy the sacrifice because we get to make the point ... but I am going without stuff and I am frustrated on a daily basis," Maggie Anderson said. "It's like, my people have been here 400 years and we don't even have a Walgreens to show for it."

So far, the Andersons have spent hundreds of dollars with black businesses from grocery stores to dry cleaners. But the couple still hasn't found a mortgage lender, home security system vendor or toy store. Nonetheless, they're hoping to expand the endeavor beyond their Chicago home.

Plans are under way to track spending among supporters nationwide and build a national database of quality black businesses. The first affiliate chapter has been launched in Atlanta, and the couple has established a foundation to raise funds for black businesses and an annual convention.

"We have the real power to do something, to use the money we spend every day to solve our problems," Maggie Anderson said recently at a meet-and-greet in Atlanta. "We have to believe that black businesses are just as good as everybody else's."

Now, the Andersons are following up with 4,000 people who signed up for the experiment on their Web site to gauge their commitment and set up online accounts to track their spending. Hundreds have also joined the experiment's Facebook page, Maggie Anderson said.

Gregory Price, chairman of the economics department at Morehouse College, said black visionaries like Booker T. Washington and Marcus Garvey made similar calls to action.

"The idea is a sound one, given that black Americans are still underrepresented in the ranks of the self-employed and that entrepreneurship is a key component to wealth," Price said.

There are one million black businesses in the United States accounting for more than $100 billion in annual sales, according to the National Black Chamber of Commerce. The latest U.S. Census numbers report that blacks have more than $800 billion in expendable income each year.

The Andersons track their spending on their Web site and estimate about 55 percent of their monthly spending is with black businesses for things like day care, groceries, car maintenance and home improvements.

One of the businesses highlighted by the Empowerment Experiment is Brenda Brown's Atlanta wine boutique, a shop with a growing black clientele. She said the project can help overcome the problems many black consumers lament.

"When we were a community of black folks who could not go to the white stores, our community of black stores flourished," Brown said. "When we were given the opportunity to go into the white store, it was like nothing else mattered anymore and we wanted to go to the white store, regardless of what the black store provided. We could have the same or better products if we supported (black businesses) in the same way."

Lewis Peeples, 45, lives in a black neighborhood in southwest Atlanta but didn't think to spend his money with black businesses until a friend told him about the project.

"So often, we make purchases and decisions and aren't even mindful that there is a a need to support our own businesses," said Peeples. "Now, I'm reaching out and making sure I know that I have an option when I look to make a purchase."

Two months ago, he committed to patronizing black businesses and found a black dry cleaner 10 minutes from home. Even when he was dissatisfied with his black doctor, he was able to find a new one. He suggests both to friends and refers others to the experiment's Web site, where he tracks his expenses.

Dallas Smith, who owns a commercial real estate firm in Atlanta, said mainstream retailers have undervalued black consumers. He lives in a black neighborhood in southwest Atlanta, where he tries to dine at black restaurants. He lamented the lack of quality businesses catering to black customers and said blacks should appreciate such businesses more.

"We've still got that 'the white man's water is colder' mentality," he said. "We can't take us for granted. When we go to our establishments, it's almost like we're doing a favor. That ought to be a given for us."

The Andersons remain encouraged by their momentum online and in the media. At the end of 2009, they hope to show $1 million in spending with black businesses among supporters across the country.

"The response has been so huge," Maggie Anderson said. "We think so much can come out of this. We're in movement-making mode now."

Price, the Morehouse professor, said defining the project's success won't be easy, since the real barriers to black advancement are poor access to capital and lack of training opportunities.

"It would be nice to see some real, hard data," Price said. "Otherwise, it could just be an episode of ethnic cheerleading."
