Rick's Revolution

At least one in the Media has courage!

Beware of Dirt Digger. This administration does keep records and will get even:

Shauna Daly, a 29-year-old Democratic operative, was named last month to the new job of White House counsel research director. Though she is inside one of the most powerful legal offices in the land, Miss Daly holds no law degree and doesn't list any legal training on her resume.

Her sole experience has been as an opposition researcher for Democratic political campaigns: She helped dig up dirt on rivals, or on her own nominee to prepare for attacks.

Rick Santelli, Good Luck and Thanks,

Chasos of Any Kind!

The Obama rescue

Feb 12th 2009
From The Economist print edition

Toxic tantrums, contingent chaos

The fiscal stimulus plan has some obvious flaws. Too much of the boost to demand is backloaded to 2010 and beyond. The compromise bill is larded with spending determined more by Democrat lawmakers’ pet projects than by the efficiency with which the economy will be boosted. And it contains “Buy American” clauses that, even in their watered-down version, send the wrong signal to trading partners.

I'm not sure how much more we can stand of this "Administration, but I know some of you respect The Economist.

Obama Economics or World Financial Plan?

Who is Pulling Geithner’s Strings?

AIM Column | By Cliff Kincaid | February 11, 2009

Geithner may not have all the answers because he has not gotten his marching orders. Those orders come from China, the global elite and the international bankers. After giving non-answers to Congress, Geithner is preparing to take off for a G-7 Meeting of Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors in Rome, Italy. These foreign finance officials may determine the nature and fate of Geithner’s “stability and recovery” plan.

These top finance officials include central bank governors, who play a role in what press reports described as “economic coordination among the top industrialized nations.”

One key global player is China. “Geithner spoke late on Sunday evening with Chinese Vice Premier Wang Qishan,” Reuters reported. Hence, Geithner was talking to a Chinese official even before he outlined his “plan” to the American people and the Senate. This was the second such conversation in a week.

In a statement, the Treasury Department said that Wang and Geithner “agreed that strong cooperation on macroeconomic financial and regulatory matters was an essential part of the U.S. relationship with China and that it was important to sustain close dialogue, particularly at this time of global financial turmoil.”

If you're going to Trust the Libs, then at least maybe you'll do some Verification.

Why TARP and Who Caused It!

Shocker: Electronic Money Market Run Nearly Destroyed US Economy
February 10, 2009

KANJORSKI: On Thursday at about 11 o'clock in the morning the Federal Reserve noticed a tremendous drawdown of money market accounts in the United States, to the tune of $550 billion was being drawn out in a matter of an hour or two. The Treasury opened up its window to help. It pumped $105 billion in the system and quickly realized that they could not stem the tide; we were having an electronic run on the banks. They decided to close the operation, close down the money accounts and announce a guarantee of $250,000 per account so there wouldn't be further panic out there.

RUSH: Do you remember this? This is the day I think that the Atlanta banks ran out of one-hundred-dollar bills. But now stop and think of this: A $550 billion withdrawal from money market funds in one-to-two hours. I am convinced -- and there's one more sound bite to go here -- I am convinced that this is what they took to the White House and said to President Bush, "We have got a disaster, you have got to get on board with a bailout," which came later on in October, "you've got to get on board with this $700 billion, the TARP 1," all because 550 -- now, what precipitated this? Here's the second Kanjorski sound bite.

KANJORSKI: If they had not done that, their estimation was that by two o'clock that afternoon, five-and-a-half trillion dollars would have been drawn out of the money market system of the United States, would have collapsed the entire economy of the United States, and within 24 hours the world economy would have collapsed. It would have been the end of our economic system and our political system as we know it. We're really no better off today than we were three months ago because we've had a decrease in the equity positions of banks because other assets are going sour by the moment.

While this link may cover Why, the question of Who could be very revealing and incriminating.

Doctors for Obama?

Ruin Your Health With the Obama Stimulus Plan: Betsy McCaughey
From Bloomberg Press

The bill’s health rules will affect “every individual in the United States” (445, 454, 479). Your medical treatments will be tracked electronically by a federal system. Having electronic medical records at your fingertips, easily transferred to a hospital, is beneficial. It will help avoid duplicate tests and errors.

But the bill goes further. One new bureaucracy, the National Coordinator of Health Information Technology, will monitor treatments to make sure your doctor is doing what the federal government deems appropriate and cost effective. The goal is to reduce costs and “guide” your doctor’s decisions (442, 446). These provisions in the stimulus bill are virtually identical to what Daschle prescribed in his 2008 book, “Critical: What We Can Do About the Health-Care Crisis.” According to Daschle, doctors have to give up autonomy and “learn to operate less like solo practitioners.”

Keeping doctors informed of the newest medical findings is important, but enforcing uniformity goes too far.

New Penalties

Hospitals and doctors that are not “meaningful users” of the new system will face penalties. “Meaningful user” isn’t defined in the bill. That will be left to the HHS secretary, who will be empowered to impose “more stringent measures of meaningful use over time” (511, 518, 540-541)

New Obama motto: "Now Government can do everything, I won."

SNL: 'Pelosi' and 'Reid' on stimulus

Change to Ponder!

A lot of you didn't like it when we had a Compassionate Conservative President (moderate by some standards), a Liberal Controlled House, and a Liberal Controlled Senate. There was too much spending, too much waste, and too much debt for some of you. These are trademarks of the Liberals.

Well now that it's too late, you know the truth. The Compassionate Conservative President was the only "restraint" and bipartisanship we had. So if it was too much for you then, what do you think it's going to be like now? Are you getting the picture, even now?

Keep in mind that while the Bush Administration requested almost $1,000,000,000,000.00 Bailout Package, they only spent $350 Billion of it. $350 Billion seems low to bailout the Lib's policy that was ocassionaly checked by two handfulls of conservatives and a President with integrity. Not a bad cost to keep the country from failing because of Lib creations like Fannie and Freddie (Dodd and Frank) and Citybank (Rubin).

Does anyone remember that in addition to investing in some of the big banks and still having $350 Billion in bailout (being converted now to campaign reimbursement) that the Campaigner in Chief Administration is planning to spend (pay off more constituents) almost another $1,000,000,000,000.00 before having spent the first one.

Well thanks to many who wanted change without caring what kind of change, the ultra Libs now have complete control of the House, the Senate, and the newly selected Presidential office occupied by the Socialist Campaigner in Chief. You can forget about bipartisianship at this point in time, and it really doesn't matter. Damn the Torpedos Full Speed Ahead. Radical Socialism is what the people wanted and thats what they are going to get. Elections have consequences. The Socialist won.

While many of us look to history to predict the future, sometimes we fail to include the present circumstances in those predictions. While the past has brought us known cycles, the future, as we currently view it will not follow the current cycle based on our short history. This cycle will now move out of the American History Cycle, and into the Socialist Cycle which will look more like Rome, England, France, and Russia.

Socialized Medicine Foundation--SCHIP/Stimulus

Democratic Stealth Care

With the nation preoccupied by the financial crisis, Democrats have been quietly working to nationalize health care.

• By KIMBERLEY A. STRASSEL

Some interesting points from the article you might not know:

Initially designed for children of working-poor families, this new Super-Schip will be double in size, and even kids whose parents make $65,000 a year will be eligible. The program will also now cover pregnant women and automatically enroll their new arrivals. The Congressional Budget Office estimates 2.4 million individuals will drop their private coverage for the public program.

Still, it's the "stimulus" that has proven the real gift horse -- a behemoth that has allowed Democrats to speed up the takeover of health care under cover of an economic crisis. They initially claimed, for instance, the "stimulus" would provide Medicaid money to states struggling to pay existing bills. What in fact it does is dramatically expand the number of Americans who qualify for Medicaid.

Under "stimulus," Medicaid is now on offer not to just poor Americans, but Americans who have lost their jobs. And not just Americans who have lost their jobs, but their spouses and their children. And not Americans who recently lost their jobs, but those who lost jobs, say, early last year. And not just Americans who already lost their jobs, but those who will lose their jobs up to 2011. The federal government is graciously footing the whole bill. The legislation also forbids states to apply income tests in most cases....

The "stimulus" also hijacks Cobra, a program that lets the unemployed retain access to their former company health benefits -- usually for about 18 months. The new stimulus permits any former employee over the age of 55 to keep using Cobra right up until they qualify for Medicare at age 65. And here's the kicker: Whereas employees were previously responsible for paying their health premiums while on Cobra, now the feds will pay 65%. CBO estimates? Seven million Americans will have the feds mostly pay their insurance bills in 2009.

Welcome to "stealth" socialized medicine. That's the good news, it's only going to get worse.

Tom Daschle, the tax cheat, is only a diversion tactic, just to keep the news off the real issue-Socialized Medicine:

Holder, Another Soros Bought Radical

AG Designate Holder is a Soros Man
Ed Lasky in American Thinker

The group of billionaire activists often come together under the rubric of the Democracy Alliance (DA) . This group has, among other activities, funded the Secretary of States Project that has helped to elect friendly state Secretary of States so as to have friends in key positions come election time. The group has also worked to elect friendly Senators (Al Franken in Minnesota, for one example). The Democracy Alliance has funded a smorgasbord of left-wing activists groups-such as ACORN and MoveOn.Org.

Keep electing Left Wing Nuts and you will keep getting more Left Wing Nuts.
Voter is no longer responsible because he trust the Nuts that paid for his information.

Justice, as we know it, is being defined by these players and their money.
