Short review of Collapse
Saturday, we were at a luncheon for a Marine veterans group in Wisconsin. When I checked in and paid the treasurer, a WWII Marine vet, who is over 80, he looked at me and said, "That f---ing book you wrote is frightening...but it's true." He's a gentleman in the old school sense--I've known the guy for about eight years, and can't recall ever hearing him swear before.

ALERT - ALERT- ALERT - CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES IN CONGRESS


HR 2885 BAD FOR AMERICA. CALL CONGRESS
http://thedavelevineshow.ning.com/profiles/blogs/hr-2885-action-alert-by-steve-salvi-at-ojjpac-org
The bill still takes away states’ rights: Section 6 of the bill still preempts states from using their Constitutionally guaranteed rights.
      ALERT ALERT ALERT
HR2164, THE LEGAL WORKFORCE ACT HAS BEEN CHANGED TO HR2885..NEW BAD PROVISIONS
HOUSE TO MARK UP ON THURSDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We have spent the last several hours pouring over the bill. This bill is still bad and now made worse by the changes from 2164 to 2885.
1.   The bill still takes away states’ rights: Section 6 of the bill still preempts states from using their Constitutionally guaranteed rights.
2.   The bill now gives dictatorial powers to the secretary of Homeland Security to make up whatever program she wants to. See SEC. 11. BIOMETRIC EMPLOYMENT ELIGIBILITY VERIFICATION. This is an identity card system. Can you say, “ Your papers please”? (in a thick accent). Gone are the protections and limitations that were in 2164.
3.   The bill also allows the Secretary of Homeland Security to use any document she wishes to prove identity!

OBAMA'S BIG MISCUE - USING TAXPAYER MONEY TO REPAY ACRONY




Solyndra is the latest in the long list of "green energy" companies that have failed after being artificially propped up by the Obama administration. The solar panel manufacturer that received more than $500 million in federal "stimulus" loans declared bankruptcy a couple weeks ago. The highly publicized scandal further confirms that the Obama's "stimulus" and "green energy" agenda are boondoggles that reward his cronies at the expense of taxpayers.

The Solyndra scandal is a prime example of political favoritism. Obama singled out the solar panel manufacturer for merely self-interested reasons. The $535 million loan to Solyndra in the "stimulus" law appears to be nothing more than a political kickback. As the Examiner's Timothy Carney writes, "this company's short life was dependent on government connections."

CONGRESS FOULED UP AND HHS KNEW IT AND COVERED UP FACTS THAT WOULD HAVE STOPPED THEM!


A trove of just-released internal Obama Administration documents reveals that the President's top health care advisors were fully aware that a key component of ObamaCare presented a massive taxpayer bailout risk, but they chose to suppress the information in their frenzy to push the controversial legislation through Congress.

The documents, quoted extensively in a report released yesterday by the House Energy & Commerce Committee, reveal a shocking level of cynicism by the President's team -- cynicism that will cost Americans hundreds of billions unless the unpopular ObamaCare law is repealed.

The 185 internal HHS emails make for disturbing reading.

CALL YOUR CONGRESS PEOPLE AND TELL THEM TO VOTE 'YES' AND STOP THE EPA


The TRAIN ACT is expected to come before the full U.S. House of Representatives on Thursday, September 22nd. This bill would push back against the EPA's unconstitutional, outrageous rules and regulations that raise energy prices for consumers, destroy jobs and increase our dependence on foreign sources of energy.

WHAT THE LEFT MEANS AS IT UTTERS WORDS OF HATRED


The Statist Dictionary

'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, 'it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less.' - Lewis Carroll, Through the Looking Glass.

Humpty was a Statist, calling on all the King's horses and all the King's men -- taxpayer-funded, of course -- to repair his fecklessness.

It's difficult to discuss policy, or even listen to Statists (or Progressives or Democrats -- your choice of terms) like Humpty with any understanding, because their words and phrases don't mean what we in the real world understand them to mean -- only what they choose them to mean.  Therefore, with election season upon us (as if it ever left), here's a little help.  Readers should feel free to add additional terms this short review has missed.

Summer is essentially over and the barbeques and the beer, hemp, crack and block parties are winding down, as people get back in the groove for school and prepare themselves mentally for the eventual cooling of fall and the bitterness of a harsh winter.  The informality of the warmer weather falls away and is replaced with pressed suits, starched shirts, conservative ties, high heels and business dresses.   A self-absorbed America is humming along as it usually does, somewhat oblivious to the man-made hurricane that is hovering just over the horizon and threatening to come ashore.

STOP ACORN

ACORN defrauded the U.S. in the last Presidential election as Election Officials looked on! We must be willing to confront these people and demand they stop their ways of diluting the vote of legitimated citizens!
