Clearly we can't know for sure, but it sure smacks retaliatory. Glad to know that the thugocracy is focusing their attention on us small nickle and dime targets (bloggers) rather than arresting the 56,000 elite tax dodgers with billions in UBS Swiss, Cayman, and Lichtenstein bank accounts.
Not to mention the one trillion sitting off shore that the US Government is more than willing to waive corporate taxes on to bring it back.
Can we get some IRS report that will let us know just how effective the thugocracy has been in nailing the elite tax dodgers? Yea, I didn't think so.

Drawing a Hard Line
Every once in awhile, I catch some nasty comment from somebody that reads my writing and just feels the urge to let me know. That's ok. That doesn't have anything to do with me. They've taken something personally and they have an ax to grind. I get that. That type of lunacy is ok. I used to practice it myself.
So how do you know, when it's appropriate to draw a hard line? When does the right moment arrive?
The first thing I try to do...is be responsible for what I say. I say what I mean, and I mean what I say. I do that only if it is responsible and I have thoroughly contemplated the other side of an issue. I am a member of a giant family...all of you. I am not interested in blowing smoke up someone's ass because I like pissing people off. I don't write for that effect. I would quit if I did. I also do not write because I think I am more intelligent than anyone. I'm not. Intelligence comes in at least 9 different types. Intelligence is the capacity to continually learn. That capacity may enlarge in some and dwindle in others. I do not write because I feel some overwhelming urge to voice my opinion and state it as a matter of fact. If you think the 14.2 trillion dollar debt is an opinion, that's up to you. If you think that the banking cabal in this country is innocent and harmless, despite thousands of provable facts to the contrary- that's up to you.
I write because I used to be in the dark. I didn't pay attention. Like many of you- I had a shitload of things to get done every day. Problems. I didn't pay attention. And while I wasn't paying attention, along with 300 million other people, the bankers in this country pulled the greatest heist in the history of the world.
And I realized that at that moment...I was part of the problem. That the people we entrusted to run this country saw that we were distracted. That's my role in this. Each one of us let these pillagers do this. And if all I ever manage to do is light one spark in someone like me, it's worth it.
I don't draw a hard line everywhere. I love people and diversity. I support unity among us, not isolation and partisan camps. I can't stand the left, and I don't like the right. Both of them use us like two crack addicted parents spinning yarns and stealing our money for their bullshit agendas, cronies, personal gain and greed habits. They don't give two shits about this country but they will tell you that they do. Pay attention to what they ACTUALLY do- and ignore that which they say. You'll find the answer. The vast majority of politicians do not fit any definition I use for selfless public servants.
Patriots and public servants draw a hard line. We will die for this country. And I am not prepared to let these leeches masquerading as "public servants" hijack this place, left or right. If those cowards can't serve the public then get the fuck out and let someone with some balls and and a spine hack that Federal Budget down to size now. We do not have the luxury of time, mindless rhetoric, or unlimited vacations.
I am part of the village. I watch and I report. I write. I do that because we need unity and strength. If we ever achieve our potential, a giant powerful village that storms DC and boots every one of their asses out of office and shit cans that thieving FEDERAL RESERVE BANK- then I will gladly quit writing. Jefferson, Madison, Adams, Franklin and a lot of other dead patriots would smile. It's a Republic but only if you can keep it.
I simply cannot apologize for that. I am unwilling to let any of my nanny government friends, or those frail insecure types, diminish my efforts. I recognize their ilk. They are why we are here. Frozen in the headlights, scared, afraid to take a stand. Cowards. In 25 years of law enforcement- I very rarely gave ground in the field and if I did, I re-took it later. I don't apologize for taking an oath and for trying my hardest to uphold it. I didn't get wealthy and I sure as shit didn't do it for "power." I did it because it was the right thing to do. And there ain't a one of my former colleagues that would disagree and they stop by here. This government is not the solution. They do not have a solution because they are the problem. And anyone that can't read that resume' after the last 40 or 50 years should not be electing anybody.
That's my hard line. I am ok with that and I hope you are too. If I have offended anybody you are free to go seek counseling or resolve your internal conflicts somewhere else. Prioritize your emotional motives. Are you interested in being part of a solution or would you just as soon let government, a thugocracy- have all of your freedom, your wealth, and hand your kids and grand kids a debt they can never pay? Please decide soon. Because that moment I spoke of...is here.

English As A Third Language
Hat tip to Dutch!
So I was checking my in box today and saw this. A million and a half dollar granted funded by who else?
- The Department of Education and you.
The grant would help teach students arabic. The "language of the future." Now residents of the United States who did not want to risk being marginalized by the sensitive left- could learn Spanish, Arabic, maybe even some English.
Thankfully, the measure looks to be dead on arrival. Thank gawd they tried it in Texas. However, the article states the same grant has been awarded in four other places. In Moonbat Valley there would have been passionate pleas by the statists. They would have found a way to grab the dough. It's all largesse to them. The "language of the future." Not in my lifetime and I damn sure hope not in yours. http://dfw.cbslocal.com/2011/02/07/mandatory-arabic-classes-coming-to-mansfield/

Government Credit Score is 650
Yes. And I caught the Loch Ness Monster on six pound test and water skiied behind her for an hour.
Perhaps shockingly, most of these estimators come up with a score of around 650 (with a range of 625 to 720). That is basically in the middle of the range, and consistent with the recent rating on U.S. debt of A+ by China's Dagong Global, the only non-U.S. credit rating agency that seems to draw much interest or credibility. By comparison, countries like Norway, Switzerland and Singapore score an AAA from Dagong, and the United States is largely on par with Japan, France and Britain in Dagong's scoring.
Here's the whole link: http://finance.yahoo.com/banking-budgeting/article/112029/what-is-the-us-governments-credit-score?mod=bb-creditreports
Here's the deal killer. We call it debt to income ratio. Show me a debt to income ratio beyond 70% (I used to write loans in Vegas) and I'll call you dead money. We just can't whip out a batch of new dough every time we are running low.

Ron Paul (David) Gets First Run On the Bernank (Goliath) Updated
*Damn. Came home from the dentist only to find no blood on TV. Paul and the Bernank are not even in the same room. My day is ruined.
The world will be watching today's House testimony with Bernank. I hope Ron Paul calls him a liar. Let there be blood. Action begins at 10:00 EDT. http://www.time.com/time/business/article/0,8599,2047134,00.html
Remember when that liar Bernank said that he wouldn't monetize the debt? http://www.benzinga.com/10/11/582442/caught-in-a-lie-bernanke-promised-congress-the-federal-reserve-would-not-monetize-the-d
Remember when that liar Bernank said that the FED would not bail out foreign banks? We found out a trillion or so went to overseas banks in that 9 trillion dollar stealth bailout in 2008?
http://nation.foxnews.com/bailouts/2010/12/02/shocking-fed-s-trillion-dollar-foreign-bank-bailout
So today you are going to see a rare event. A politician, not a lawyer, who tells the truth. And a polished brainiac from MIT that lies enough to qualify as a lawyer- but isn't.
I just want you know which is which. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/02/24/ben-bernanke-snaps-at-ron_n_474874.html

How Long Can Hedge Funds Like JP Morgan Suppress Precious Metals Prices?
Not much longer.
Behold the power of 1.8 billion Chinese buying gold and silver. You better get some while you still can. The Bernank is long precious metals. http://kingworldnews.com/kingworldnews/KWN_DailyWeb/Entries/2011/2/7_KWN_Source_-_Expect_Massive_Chinese_Gold_Buying_Using_GLD.html

More Presidential Madness
Hey, I've got an idea! Let's spend our way out of debt. That 700 billion dollar stimulus bill worked like a champ. Let's try a 53 billion dollar encore. We can deliver it "FUBAR" and end up paying even more...
You simply cannot make this shit up. A Lionel train set, this one full scale.
