I was just reading some of the stupidity at ThinkProgress about how tax increases are necessary.  No, they are not.  We just surpassed $15 trillion in debt and these morons actually believe giving more money to the government will actually solve anything.  Lets say for instance you give the government another $500 billion in tax revenue, what will that actually do?  Absolutely nothing for the debt as it is sucked up interest or just spend on another government loan for big Obama donors.

Spending and the associated entitlements are the biggest problem we have in this country.  Democrats want more of both, and that’s why they must be removed from office.

They said Obama’s Presidency would be historic, and man were they right!  For the first time ever in U.S. history, it’s credit rating has been downgraded by S&P.

Credit rating agency Standard & Poor’s on Friday lowered the nation’s AAA rating for the first time since granting it in 1917. The move came less than a week after a gridlocked Congress finally agreed to spending cuts that would reduce the debt by more than $2 trillion — a tumultuous process that contributed to convulsions in financial markets. The promised cuts were not enough to satisfy S&P.

The liberals are screaming their stupid heads off trying to blame the Tea Party for this, but as usual, it is all lies.  The Tea Party were the only ones who wanted a $4 trillion cut which would have avoided the downgrade.

As they said themselves, Obama owns this economy!

The biggest lie and talking point of the left is that taxes, whether it be tax cuts or not enough taxes, are the problem with this economy.  Lets remember over 50% of Americans pay no income tax, and these democrats just love to tell others that they need to be taxed more to support their entitlements.  Of course we can forget the Hollywood and D.C. liberals who say the same thing.

Now these liberals can put their money where their mouth is!

The Department of the Treasury has setup a way for anyone to voluntarily pay down the public debt with their own money.  If these liberals believe they should be taxed more, then show them how to directly contribute.

Think they will pay?  No chance.

When it comes to democrats and the debt, they are all nothing but a bunch of filthy liars.  Of course we also don’t have a media that will call them out on their obvious lies, so it is up to us to do their job.

While calling the Tea Party a “cult fringe”, Harkin also said this:

"Democrats are willing to do whatever is necessary to raise the debt ceiling, not for future borrowing but to pay the debts that we racked up in the past. Which, mostly was racked up by a Republican House, a Republican Senate and a Republican President in the last 8 years. Yet, they’re not willing to pay the bills,"

Really Tom?

First of all, the debt is not “mostly” from republicans.  Obama has added more to the debt than any President combined.  Republicans aren’t in the clear here, but to try and push everything off on the GOP is well…..very liberal of you.  I guess you don’t remember in 2006 when you voted not to raise the debt ceiling.

You say Tom, that democrats are willing to do “whatever is necessary”.

Again….really Tom?

• Are you willing to defund ObamaCare?
• Are you ready to reform entitlements?
• How about ending the Libya war which was only supposed to last weeks?

I can go on and on, but I’m sure you get the point.  How about it Tom, are you ready to “do whatever”?

Several news organizations are reporting rumors that Obama is going to introduce or support between $3-4 Trillion in cuts.  Don’t believe this nonsense for one second.  Even if he did try to introduce spending cuts, they are using the ploy that these cuts will be spread over 10 years.  With that type of math the cuts won’t help reduce the deficit at all, especially since Obama and the democrats would just increase spending in other areas.  Entitlement programs are what is causing much of our debt, and ObamaCare is the next entitlement set to start in the next year or so.  Obama will never cut the programs that his entitlement base is all about. 

Also don’t think that will ever give up on raising taxes on working Americans.  Oh, and don’t forget their new term is “revenue enhancements” which they have told the media to use instead of saying tax increases.  Since Obama took office he and his liberal allies have done nothing to make the economy better, and has spent trillions of dollars for useless stimulus and other government nonsense.

Contact your representatives and tell them hard cuts need to be made, and no tax increases!

There are budget talks going on in Washington led by Joe Biden, who may or may not know where he is or what he is supposed to be doing.  This is all coming down to the debt ceiling and how the U.S. will ever be able to pay off its debt, which has exploded during the Obama presidency with items like the failed stimulus.  Majority Leader Cantor walked out on talks today because of what seems like tax issues.

Lets be clear here.  Democrats do not want to cut any spending with the exception of the military….well because they hate the military.  The majority of federal spending is on entitlements whether it be social security, medicare, medicaid, unemployment, welfare, etc.  If you look at the chart below the amount spent on entitlements in this country is at unbelievable levels.

The last I heard today both the GOP and democrats are talking about reducing the budget down $4 trillion over 10 years.  That is just stupid and won’t do anything to get this financial mess solved.  Trillions need to be cut now, not over 10 years.  The democrats solution for everything is taxes and more taxes.  Raising taxes means nothing if you can’t control the out of control spending problem.  All you are doing is putting money into a hole that is already gone before it actually gets there.  Of course we know the intentions of democrats and their high tax schemes is to punish successful people and keep up their class warfare which they will use this upcoming election season.

Everything in the budget needs to be cut, including both entitlements and defense spending.

For starters:

• Eliminate all foreign aid and bailouts of foreign governments.
• Abolish the Department of Education.
• End all subsidies for farms, energy, etc.
• Reduce the amount of military bases around the world.
• End ObamaCare.
• Cut and limit entitlements such as welfare.

This is just a drop in the bucket, but it is a start.  Unfortunately, no politician on either side will even touch any of these things.  The reality is the U.S. debt is at a point of which it is un-payable and it is not a matter of if, but when the entire economy will go down with it.

Another dismal jobs report showing how Obamanomics is doing nothing but hurting the people of this country, and the media focuses on a gaffe by Palin.  I would hope most Americans see how the media is again covering up for the failure that we call the Obama administration.  These hypocrites were calling Bush the “worst jobs record since Hoover” when unemployment was at 4.4%.  Lets also note that most of the jobs created were from McDonalds!  Hope and change!

Just for fun I lurked at some of the liberal blogs like the Daily Kommunists, ThinkStupid, etc.  If you read the comments there you will realize why so many idiots vote for people like Obama.  They believe raising taxes creates jobs!

You might have seen in the news this past some news about some commission giving their recommendations on how to reduce the deficit.  I didn’t read much into it, as I know it is nothing but garbage that won’t address the real issues we have.

There’s more useless and wasted money in the federal government than anyone could probably ever account for.  Why are we giving billions to terrorists states?  Why are we funding NPR?  Well here is my “recommendations” for cuts in the government.

Note:  Numbers I’m using here are from the most recent budgets and accounting that I could find.  They might not be completely exact, but the point is still valid.

• Cut $100 billion from the Department of Defense.  Conservatives might get jumpy at this one, but they need to get a grip and realize the DoD, like any other federal department, is full of waste.  I don’t advocate cutting important military operations, but we can cut back on foreign bases, consolidate operations, etc.
• Eliminate HUD.  That is $48 billion right back for a department that has become nothing more than another entitlement management agency.
• Abolish the Department of Education.  The DoE is the perfect example of a useless government bureaucracy.   Education should be a State matter, and there’s another $68 billion cut.
• Cut 90% of Foreign Aid.  This is a hard number to get a total for, which means it is probably an extremely insane amount being spent. The best number I could find is that the U.S. spends roughly $26 billion per year on foreign aid.  We should cut most of this back with only a small reserve.
• Stop funding the United Nations.  The U.S. gives the U.N. over $3 billion a year in funding.  I don’t need to explain how corrupt and ineffective the U.N. is, and further funding should be stopped.
• No more money to NPR.  We pay nearly $500 million to fund NPR, which gets incredible amounts of money from left-wing loons like George Soros. 

These are just a few examples, but I can pretty much guarantee you won’t find these on the liberal list of deficit reduction.  There are many other ways like freezing federal pay and stopping bailouts of labor unions.  Of course we really didn’t even address the most wasteful programs like all the entitlement programs that are only getting bigger.
