If toast falling off the table always lands butter-side down, it is safe to presume that toast buttered on both sides will stop and hover in midair. (Proverb of Obama's Economic Recovery Team)

Every time the government tries to organize the economy, the only thing that stays organized is crime. (Proverb of the Chicago Mafia)

Government helps those who refuse to help themselves. (Proverb of community organizers)

If necessity is the mother of invention, government mandate is the fairy godmother. (Proverb of carbon emission regulators)

Don't tax you, don't tax me, tax that fellow who didn't vote for you and me. (Found buried in a federal "stimulus" bill)

All it takes to prove that I am the smartest guy in any room is for the rest of the people in that room to believe me when I say it. (Joe Biden's proverb)

President Obama said when it comes to passing the stimulus package we can’t afford distractions and delays. You know who took offense to this in Congress? The head of the Senate Distractions and Delays Committee.'

To Democrats, IRS means, “I’m really sorry.”

Obama is a genius. Whenever he nominates someone, they pay their taxes. He’s found a way to eliminate the deficit — nominate everyone in the country, one person at a time, and they’ll pay their taxes.

President Obama is working very hard to get the stimulus passed. He has asked the Senate to cut $50 billion from the plan. He said we no longer would need the $50 billion once everyone in his Cabinet pays his taxes.

Are You a Socialist or Capitalist?

It seems that not a day goes by without Americans hearing about President Barack Obama’s nominations for cabinet positions who are nothing more than tax-and-spend liberals who don’t believe they should have to pay their “fair share” of taxes.

In fact, it seems the most liberal of our elected officials have trouble forking over their bucks to the US government including the man who is destined to head the Treasury Department and a House of Representatives stalwart who’s always demanding higher taxes.

Would the US government, the news media and the Justice Department be so understanding with non-political citizens? I think not.

In December 2005 and January 2006, I covered the federal trial of rock star Ronald Isley of the phenomenal Isley Brothers band. Below is one article I wrote for the now-defunct Conservative Voice with regard to his 26-year prison sentence. Apparently, the government and the news media were not so forgiving. Too bad, Isley didn’t volunteer to help the Democrat Party.

HAPPY FRIDAY!

[ClearCase_guy]

I think the quiz is misleading. My “8% socialist” probably comes from the fact that I am not laissez-faire on drugs and prostitution. I do not characterize those things as “capitalist” issues — they are Libertarian issues. I’m not a Libertarian.

Harry Reid walked into a bar in D.C. along with a donkey.

The bartender looked up and said, “Hey, buddy, you can’t bring that creature in here.”

“I can’t help it. He just keeps following me everywhere, said the donkey.”

That's perfect. That very idea's been rattling around the box of loose screws that is my think-box for days.

he he 100% hell no.

How do you like this one?

To my friends who enjoy a glass of wine... And those who don’t.

As Ben Franklin said:

In wine there is wisdom,
In beer there is freedom,
In water there is bacteria.

In a number of carefully controlled trials, scientists have demonstrated that if we
drink 1 litre of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more
than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. Coli) - bacteria
found in feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop.

However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer (or tequila,
rum, whiskey or other liquor) because alcohol has to go through a purification
process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.

Remember:
Water = Poop,
Wine = Health .

Therefore, it’s better to drink wine and talk stupid,
than to drink water and be full of shit ..

There is no need to thank me for this valuable information:
I’m doing it as a public service.

Where are we going wrong? We are only 92% Capitalist. I always thought that I did not have a Socialist bone in my body. Is there a therapy class that we can go to to fix this problem?

I only left the prostitution question unchecked.

Everything else I agreed with.

The quiz was written so that every question you checked off was a pro-capitalist answer. Look at the questions you did not check and meditate on them for a while. It seems to me that this test is biased towards the libertarian posistion (all drugs and prostitutes should be legal).

[do the dhue]

Ahhh, I only read it once. Aint sure I could make it through three times consecutively. But if that is what it takes, I break the book out. I have it in my library. I like the story line, but Rand is kinda wordy. I am a get to the point kind of person. :-)

[BenLurkin]

[do the dhue]

I didn’t check the drug one or prostitute one. So, I let some morals creep in and I can live with that. Good, I don’t have to read Rand three times consecutively now.
