The GAO discovered almost 4,000 designated recipients who had not yet received stimulus funding reported creation of or saving of more than 58,000 jobs with the stimulus money they had NOT received. Another 9,200 recipients reported no job creation, despite receiving roughly $1 Bi-llion.   At least 25% of the quarterly reports had still NOT been reviewed according to the GAO. Reports from recipients have grossly misstated job numbers according to the audit; and most infamously, hundreds of millions of dollars have been spent in “NON-EXISTENT congressional districts according to a report from the Government Reform and Oversight Committee.

                 Some recipients have misstated job numbers, according to the audit. Others may have retained workers or hired new ones intentionally, knowing that they will receive stimulus funding in the near future and using the opportunity to report job creation, which IF it occurred was unrelated to stimulus spending.

                A parable from the animal world and the results of a hideous scientific experiment are all the background needed to fully understand the goals of Barak*** Obama. His motivations are also easily divined from his first book courtesy of his own pen . . . let’s begin with the . . .

“Parable of an Arabian Winter”

One cold night, as an Arab sat in his tent just seconds before starting to prepare for sleep, a camel gently thrust his nose under the flap and looked in. "Master," he said, "let me put my nose in your tent. It's cold and stormy out here." "By all means," said the Arab, "and welcome" as he quickly grabbed a couple blankets and went to sleep.

A little later the Arab awoke to find that the camel had not only put his nose in the tent but his head and neck also. The camel, who had been turning his head from side to side, said, "It will take just a tiny bit more room if I place my forelegs within the tent. It is difficult standing out here." "Yes, you may put your forelegs within," said the Arab, moving a little to make room, for the tent was very small.

Finally, the camel said, "May I not stand wholly inside? I keep the tent open by standing as I do." "Yes, yes," said the Arab. "Come wholly inside. Perhaps it will be better for both of us." So the camel crowded in. The Arab with difficulty in the crowded quarters again went to sleep. When he woke up the next time, he was outside in the cold and the camel was snoring in the tent all by himself.

It took left-wing advocates in the legislature and White House roughly 30 years to make the United States a fledgling socialist country. First with the creation of FDR’s Social Security Act in 1935; and later with LBJ’s Medicare and Medicaid laws in 1965 the federal government immersed itself in what was previously the domain of the individual and of private sector businesses via life insurance retirement funds and medical insurance plans like Blue Cross and Blue Shield. 

These programs each began very small but through the camel-like process of creeping government socialization, they became gradually larger and larger. Medicare, for example which was projected to cost only $12 Billion in 1990 (25 years after it’s inception) instead cost over $100 billion at that time as every new legislative step always multiplied, but never decreased, both the “benefits” and the government’s intrusion into the private sector. All three programs have been technically bankrupt since their inceptions because the money legislatively mandated to be set aside for them has never once been actually set aside.  

Today the debt and obligation entailed by these three huge Government Spending Boondoggles (GSBs) amounts to just under $100 TR-illion. The nation was aghast when Obama embarked upon actions which in five months more than doubled the national debt to just over $11 TR-illion (it’s now greater than $12 TR-illion), but in point of fact, Obama’s precipitous spending was but a drop in the bucket compared to the impact of 73 prior years with the liberal camel creeping into the nation’s tent. 

The gruesome scientific experiment referred to above in the first paragraph is well-known, perhaps apocryphal, Rajjpuut will NOT go out and torture little animals to check it out.  You may have heard of it, but read the description carefully nevertheless, here is the “recipe”: 

Take one unpleasantly cold, but well-fed and otherwise healthy frog.

Add one large kettle of pleasantly warm water.

Immediately place the cold frog in the warm water.

Begin heating the kettle up at the rate of ½ degree Fahrenheit every seven minutes.

According to instructions, the frog will doze happily until killed by the heat and ultimately boiled without ever waking up.

                Does it work? Would the frog put up with this abuse? Perhaps, perhaps not. It seems logical, in any case, that the experiment would definitely work in its earliest stages. 

A. Certainly we would clearly expect a happy, warm frog to jump out of unpleasantly hot water immediately, but this cold frog, (like the unfortunate jobless citizens of the Great Depression of the 30’s offered government handouts and programs) would actually be gratified by being placed up to its eyeballs in pleasantly warm water. Logical to a fault so far . . .

B. It seems logical that even when the temperature is gradually raised, the frog will at first continue to luxuriate in its preferable surroundings and want no more out of life than to stay right where it’s at . . .

C.      Frogs are cold-blooded animals. Unlike we humans who shiver when we get cold and button up our clothing . . . and perspire when we’re hot and take off our sweaters: the frog’s internal temperature depends totally upon the temperature of its surroundings. If the frog is well-fed and his other needs are met (homeostasis) there’s no reason to doubt he would stay put and continue dozing as the water temperature increased say, from 85 degrees to 105 degrees anyway . . .   this is the equivalent of the creeping socialism the country underwent up to about 1990.

D.     It would take a mighty cruel scientist to go further with the experiment, although it might be enlightening . . . certainly from the frog citizens’ point of view it would be devastating to go further.

E.      However, at this point enter Barak Obama. Obama jerks the sleeping frog from his nap in the very hot water and throws him into a micro-wave oven; slams the appliance’s door and presses the “popcorn” button and nukes our unoffending frog. Will the frog notice? Definitely . . . . Will it go berserk trying to escape? Definitely? Will it do any good? That is the question for America’s Citizen frogs . . . .

Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

                As the Christmas season approaches, manufacturers and big price-driven retailers are having it out over the pricing on a wide variety of goods. For some their very survival may be at stake, for others principle seems to be the key negotiating matter. For some like Coca-Cola, it appears that plain old-fashioned hubris and greed may be driving their perceived need to keep prices exactly where they’ve been despite today’s economic angst.

It appears high-volume low-cost Costco customers might just be looking elsewhere for Coca-Cola products now that the retailer has stopped carrying them because the two high-profile corporations are waging a bitter public fight over prices. The public feud  between one of the nation's largest wholesale club operators and the world's largest soft drink maker is revealing the battle-royale that up to now big retailers and product makers have largely kept out of the public’s hearing.

Retailers NEED to keep prices low to attract their economically-tormented customers; many manufacturers are hoping desperately to get some sort of reasonable price support for their goods as the most desperate among them are seemingly giving things away. Coca-Cola, on the other hand, is refusing any price concessions to its customers for the world’s most well-recognized product because, “it’s necessary to maintain our profit margins,” according to an Atlanta Coke spokesman who spoke off the record since she didn’t have corporate permission to comment on pricing.

The public infighting between Coke and CostCo is just the most visible and celebrated instance of this “Great Recession” era animosity. It’s always a dog-eat-dog world out there but usually only the most popular entities can keep from at least the most modest of acquiescence to retailers’ price desires. It is virtually unheard of for such battles to occur between well known corporations and even more rare for the battling to emerge into the public’s awareness.

In announcing their decision, CostCo said, "Costco is committed to carrying name brand merchandise at the best possible prices. At this time, Coca-Cola has not provided Costco with competitive pricing so that we may pass along the value our members deserve," according to a message on the company's Web site labeled "Price Alert!" Coke and other Coca-Cola products will still be on the shelves, but won’t be re-stocked “until the matter is resolved,” according to another message on the CostCo site.

                This dispute is notable given the size and visibility of both companies, according to Jim Hertel, managing partner at retail consulting firm Willard Bishop as quoted in an AP article.

Markets in Europe as well as here in the United States are feeling the deep pinch also. Earlier this year Belgian grocer Delhaize SA said it would no longer stock at least 250 Unilever products because the food and consumer products maker was making "unprecedented" demands that would force retail prices up 30 percent, the two companies couldn’t reach an agreement for several months. If there is a compromise at CostCo where the profit margin/volume model is considered “gospel,” it appears Coke will be the one that gives in. 

It was on that date in 1919, that a government spy (originally sent to learn more about the originally seven-member National Socialists then called the German Workers Party for his military bosses) actually began taking over the organization. That spy, Adolf Hitler, had earlier gotten into an argument with several members that drew a lot of  interest and convinced the group to rent a beer hall for their next meeting at which he would speak. This was a big deal for the tiny group which actually multi-tasked as a club for playing skat, a popular German card game.  

After shadowing the group’s activities a while, Hitler decided the group held promise and he was listed as group member #555, even though he was only the 55^th member (the early Nazis often used creative methods like  marching around the same blocks several times in a circle to multiply the impact of the numbers they had). Hitler, using an ad in an anti-Semitic newspaper and a relatively new invention, the mimeograph machine, to paper the city of Munich with handbills telling of the upcoming meeting  was gratified when over 100 new listeners paid the Nazis to hear him speak. On that day, the Nazi Party first became an important voice in German history. By the end of 1920, membership had grown to over 3,000.

As to the end of the party, after the original Nuremberg Trials ten key Nazis were hung on October 16, 1946 bringing the official beginning of the end to the Third Reich horror show. 

Additionally, October 16, 1924 marked the nominal end of Hitler’s writing of Mein Kampf while in Landsberg am Lech Prison (situated near the Lech River). Hitler had been given a five-year sentence for treason at-gunpoint after his failed revolution in late November, 1923 and was jailed under posh almost country-club circumstances and also allowed a typewriter and had his personal secretary Rudolph Hess with him (photos of Der Fuhrer behind bars in suit and tie in Landsberg cell #7 were popular gift items in Germany for many years and the prison later became the center of a concentration camp) Hitler finished the draft, he said, on this date and set his typist Hess to putting things in better order, no small feat considering the rambling, ungrammatical ravings Hitler put into his "November Criminal"-castigating; autobiographical; anti-Semitic; conquest of Europe handiwork. 

Hitler who had been imprisoned on April Fool’s Day, 1924, was released for good behavior a few days before Christmas after serving roughly eight and a half months: a huge April Fool’s gag on the whole world. Hitler continued to add copy to his book to Hess’ great chagrin and Mein Kampf was finally released in 1925 to eventually become, next to the Bible, the all-time German best-seller. This was very important because as part of his early release, Hitler was forbidden to give speeches and the book provided him with both needed money for living expenses and a forum for his monstrous ideas.

The most infamous of all Nazi moments was the creation of the Warsaw Ghetto on October 16, 1940. German Governor-General Hans Frank confined 400,000 people (about 30% of the Polish city’s population in about 2.4% of the city area. A month later, the situation worsened when the Nazis built a brick wall around the ghetto as armed guards patrolled the area. It now appears that the Obama administration has concocted a way to further dishonor Rajjpuut’s birthday and put the Bush administration that preceded them on trial in New York City. 

The nefarious idea was given the go-ahead by Obama to Attorney General Eric Holder on October 16, 2009 and after details were  finalized, it was released to the public in a Holder speech on Friday the 13^th of November (while his boss was off playing in Asia) in which he said Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other Guantanamo Bay detainees would be brought to trial in a courtroom barely a thousand yards from the site of the World Trade Center's twin towers they are accused of destroying. Rumors that resigned “Green-Tech Czar” Van Jones had originally suggested the idea to Obama back in April are still not confirmed.

The likely circus nature of the trial; it’s undoubted huge cost and long duration; the possible stimulus for more direct terror attacks in NYC itself; and the gratuitous granting of U.S. citizen trial protections to war criminals is apparently of no importance to Saint Obama and Asst. Saint Holder.   The noble Rajjpuut must suffer bearing yet another cross on his birthday, alas.

Rajjpuut

                More and more the country’s reported unemployment rate of 10.2% is coming under increasing scrutiny and even fire. Usually the President’s 10.2 "U-1" statistic is the standard by which unemployment is measured but increasingly the "U-6" statistic is being looked at because under the unfolding Obama game plan continually it appears that job seekers are running out of unemployment benefits and giving up using the official employment agencies in their hunts as jobs become increasingly more difficult to find.   At present U-6 unemployment which measures all three categories (U-1 unemployment; plus people who’ve lost benefits plus and have given up using the official agencies for job searching; plus the UNDERemployed who have part-time jobs only) now shows that in reality 17.5% of all Americans are jobless.

                The Obama administration, which obtained their second stimulus package by promising to hold unemployment at less than 8%, is quite content to use the U-1 unemployment statistic claiming it is “more accurate.” In normal times U-1 readings of say, 4.7% unemployment correspond to 5.5% or perhaps 5.8% U-6 unemployment stats. In any case 17.5% is the average real unemployment across America and some areas like California and Michigan have been much harder hit with U-6 readings well above 20%. In Fresno County, California, the U-6 reading is over 24%, because the Environmental Protection Industry (EPA) refuses to allow irrigating from rivers and irrigation canals that would endanger the Delta Smelt. So the nation’s largest vegetable growing area finds itself with among the highest unemployment in the country. In Michigan the auto industry woes, particularly for Chrysler and GM continue.

17.5% Real** Unemployment Hits the Country

                The Obama administration has taken the fine art of making political hay while the sun is NOT shining and turned it toward making hay WHERE the sun has never shown: in non-existent congressional districts across the country. Recent counts suggest that not only has the stimulus job creation/job saving reporting in many cases multiplied reported jobs by a factor of ten or more, but also that numerous non-existent United States’ congressional districts have been reporting in with amazing job creation results as well. ABC News has been a leader in reporting huge discrepancies with the Obama stimulus job count. Maybe ACORN is helping with the stimulus reporting in addition to voter registration?????

                Talking about phantom jobs created in non-existent congressional districts and no other types of glaring errors and falsifications, here are some examples: 5 jobs were created in Missouri's 14th Congressional District, at a cost of $617,848.  One slight problem: there are only nine districts in Missouri.  Ghost districts sprang up all over Missouri: 3.5 jobs were reported--split between the 16th and the 29th districts of Missouri--costing another $55,896.  The three key Missouri districts numbered 31, 10 and 00 believe it or not reported zero jobs created, but still managed to secure $254,823 in taxpayer dollars.  U.S. taxpayers have forked over $928,567 to these phantom Missouri congressional districts.  So far we’ve had no reporting of jobs created in Missouri districts 99 through 201, nor from the states of Madagascar, Kenya, Honduras or Never-Never Land but Rajjpuut continues to await developments.

                Across the entire nation, questionable duplication of effort is also an apparent problem: according to recovery.gov, $34 million in stimulus greenbacks has been spent in Arizona's fantasy 86th congressional district for the Navajo Housing authority, which is actually located in Arizona’s 1^st Congressional District.  The reporting problems are not limited to Arizona, however:

In Oklahoma, recovery.gov lists more than $19 million in spending -- and 15 jobs created -- in even more NON-Existent congressional districts.  In Iowa, $10.6 million was spent with 39 jobs created -- in ghostly districts.  However, it was NOT all smoke and mirrors: Connecticut's 42nd district (which also does not exist), claimed 25 jobs were created without spending a single stimulus dollar. Rajjpuut admires their efficiency, but then again, what can be expected when creating invisible jobs?

               The list of outrageous spending and fictional job creativity in bogus congressional districts extends to U.S. territories as well . . .

$140.5 million was spent in the 1st congressional district of the U.S. Virgin Islands but no reported jobs were created in this mystery district . . . $8.4 million was also spent and 40.3 jobs created in the 99th congressional district of the U.S. Virgin Islands . . .  

$1.5 million was spent and .3 jobs created in the 69th district and $35 million for 142 jobs in the 99th district of the Northern Mariana Islands . . .

The Obama folks also didn’t notice that $47.7 million  was spent and 291 jobs created in Puerto Rico's NON-Existent 99th congressional district.  These SLIGHT inaccuracies suggest that in the country and in the U.S. territories, the possibility that perhaps the ACORN reporting agency intends to use the money for creating prostitution businesses in real districts with real children?

Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

Everyone knows of the danger from right-wing groups like the KKK and skin-head factions and people like Timothy McVeigh; and of course most recently Nidal Malik Hasan  a radical Islamist/Jihadist . . . and you see what kind of destruction and misery these sort of right-wingers are all capable of creating. Well in Rajjpuut’s not-so-humble opinion, True Believers on the left are even more dangerous. For one thing they tend to be far more educated and far more convinced therefore that they are absolutely RIGHT in their True Belief. But mostly they are so dangerous because they tend to be capable of extremely subtle attacks that no one takes nearly seriously enough . . . .

In the past sixteen years since the first WTC attacks, we’ve seen numerous horrific examples of Islamist extremists inflicting terroristic attacks on humanity. The first large-scale LEFT-wing attack that Rajjpuut remembers from his youth was in 1975. Largely through the efforts of three True Believing Leftists, New York City went bankrupt*** that year. How does that rank compared to all the Muslim deaths since? Well, at first glance it’s like comparing apples to oranges . . . but is it really?

                A second case in point, since they lost their latest attempt to sanctify the concept of gay marriage in Maine, the liberal community and specifically the liberal homosexual community (95% of the gay populace?) has become so outraged that they’ve taken to threatening mayhem of all sorts against specific and random targets. Of course, like Hasan should have been treated, every single instance needs to be reported and followed up on, some menacers are, thank God, pure cowards hiding behind internet anonymity. But others are truly dangerous. Here’s perhaps the most well-written one of about 12-15 articles, blogs, comments on the issue of gay threats, menacing, vandalism, mischief and real violence:

http://710knus.townhall.com/columnists/MattBarber/2009/11/13/gay_jihad

                Just so he can also earn the scorn of violent “homosexual activists,” Rajjpuut reminds his readers:  what’s right is ZERO INtolerance toward homosexuals as citizens or human beings; TOTAL INtolerance for the STATED GOALS of the national homosexual organizations and their most quoted leaders and most well-known magazines.  As my many earlier blogs have documented: Obama’s “School Security” appointee Kevin James and the homosexual activist he most “admires” (his words) and the most well-known homosexual magazines all have expressed a desire for removing the “age of consent” completely.  That’s clearly wrong.   However, even if that never happens, but if gay marriage is sanctified by law, then the day when homosexual adoption occurs is not long in coming. And pederasty of any sort as advocated by the most radical elements of the homosexual movement canNOT be tolerated.  See the footnotes to understand the logic behind this apparently huge leap in logic. ^^^

Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

***How it happened was it was really, little more than an “intellectual exercise,” a university parlor game.”  In ’66, two ultra-LEFT-wing political science professors, Richard Cloward and Frances Piven from Columbia University, in New York City, decided there was a bit of a problem with “dialectic materialism” and that waiting for history to unfold perfectly according to Lenin and Marx was just too “iffy” . . . so human beings needed to intervene in order to speed this highly desirable process along. Their “Cloward^^^-Piven Theory “or “Cloward-Piven Strategy” suggested doing exactly that: creating crises in capitalistic free markets and in non-socialist governments to bankrupt them, befuddle them and bring them to their knees: in their own words, “bringing on political change by orchestrating crisis.” 

The political change he and she first got heavily into began when they contracted with African American militant George Alvin Wiley and helped him found the NWRO (National Welfare Rights Organization to put their strategy to bankrupt the welfare system into action and thus, they assumed, hasten some truly radical change. The trio assumed that the forthcoming economic collapse would bring revolution to all the streets in the land as political and economic turmoil consumed the nation. It worked.

Sort of . . . .

^^^***1.  Nambla.org  (North American man-boy love association) is one of the more outspoken voices for the “homosexual agenda”

2. The title of a book that Obama School Security appointee Kevin Jones wrote the forward for is "The Queering of Elementary Education.” Rajjpuut believes that until the 6^th grade all families should be trusted to instill sex education in their children and no primary or elementary child should be exposed to Jenning’s “curriculum” which he states must cover “gay and bi-sexual and transsexual” issues in EVERY course.” 

3. Jennings himself  has made a big deal about reminding homosexuals to employ “euphemisms” such as safety, security, etc. to get what they want legislatively. However, he has also been personally involved in teaching 13-year olds about the delights of a homosexual activity known as “fisting.” The great pederast he worships is Harry Hay. NAMBLA and Hay both consistently oppose ALL “age of consent” legislation.

4. Harry Hay (in a 1983 address) said, “. . . if the parents and friends of gays are truly friends of gays, they would know . . . that relationship with an older man is precisely what thirteen-, fourteen- and fifteen year old kids need more than anything else in the world.”

5. Homosexual relationships between consenting adults is, therefore, the business and only the business of those consenting adults. Homosexual marriage because IF it is allowed it will lead unerringly to legal adoption must never be allowed since pederasty is such a dangerous part of the most vocal of the homosexual activist cadre.

                OK, let’s get to it! You may NOT be surprised to learn that the LEFT-wing politicians don’t play by the same set of rules as Independents and Conservatives do. You might have even attributed their radical-seeming behavior to either a huge lack of brainpower, lack of self-respect or zero self-discipline. True of some, but certainly NOT true of their leaders. Nevertheless, while the rest of the nation focuses on substance and process and earnestly seeks solutions for complicated problems, the LEFT seemingly always engages in irrational(ly) ________

a.      promises for promises’ sake

b.      change for change’s sake

c.       using lying as an approved tactic

d.      distorting and using “the rules” in ways that common sense doesn’t allow

e.       playing the game only to win with no respect for the spirit of the law or the good of the country

f.        showing absolutely no respect for the U.S. Constitution

g.      showing absolutely no respect for free market capitalism

h.      showing respect for ideas (like “Choice”) rather than what’s actually good for actual human beings

i.        never apologizing for their mistakes

j.        never changing approach even when their mistakes are catastrophic

k.      blaming the right for the consequences of all the LEFT’s mistakes

You might well ask yourself “What is the crux of these eleven (a-k) items above? What do they have in common?” Rajjpuut is glad you asked, you’ll soon know . . . . but first by way of example, a quick look at the “Catalog of Leftist Strategy” – that is, the unvarying GAME PLAN of the LEFT given above (a-k) and that quick look will suffice to clear the concepts up in the reader’s mind. 

a.      Especially since the Carter campaign of 1976, the left as symbolized by their standard bearers mostly in the Democratic Party have relentlessly made a gratuitous habit of OUT-PROMISING the right in every national election. Independent agencies studying the phenomenon have said that roughly 64% of the campaign promises made and virtually all the “brand-new” initiatives come from the left. To make a virtue of their glibness the common refrain from the Democrats has long been “Republicans don’t have any ideas,” thus confusing volume of ideas and radicalness of ideas with the more important soundness of ideas and actual necessity for enacting the ideas in question.  See the sad history of mortgage-guarantee laws ("Every American deserves to own his home!" really sounds nice and feels good, but doesn't work well in practice.) in the footnotes***.

To extrapolate on this briefly, Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid are all Democratic innovations. Right now the three programs (counting Medicare D) now are obligated to the American people for $98.6 TRillion in owed services. The recent shocking moves by Obama to more than double the national debt to its present $12 TRillion is but a drop in the hat compared to the awfulness of those three Democratic programs. Since, despite the laws requiring all three programs to operate in “pay as you go” fashion, none of the programs have ever set-aside funds for the recipients . . . the three programs are not only responsible for $98.6 TRillion in debt or obligations but also for a great part of the $12 TRillion national debt as well.

b.      Change for change’s sake is especially notable in the use of “scientific emergencies” to change society. DDT has been largely banned around the globe since the early 70’s courtesy of the bogus science in one book (Rachel Carson’s “Silent Spring”) and cost over two million lives every year since just to malaria. DDT can be safely drunk; DDT can be safely used as lousy-tasting salad dressing; DDT has never been proved to have caused a single human cancer; DDT has NOT been proved to alter any animals’ DNA; DDT has NOT been proved to make birds’ eggshells thinner or weaker. The bogus “Global Warming Crisis” unsubstantiated by real scientists other than Al Gore, hee hee: has brought us to the brink of passing 1) cap and trade legislation that would cost the American Economy $220 Billion each and every year into perpetuity and 2) a promise from Candidate Obama to “create five million new ‘green-tech’ jobs . . . this requires us to take a look at the infamous recent Spanish program with its similar intent:  extrapolating directly from the study in Spain of the disastrous results of the Spanish green initiative:  over 90% of Obama's five million green tech jobs will last from a month to eighteen months; because of the huge amount of taxes necessary to put the programs into effect, they will cost eleven million real permanent jobs now in the economy; after eighteen months only 500,000 of those green tech jobs will still exist; so each new green tech job created at roughly $750,000 in taxpayer money will cost 22 real jobs.

c.       Anyone who can’t catch Obama in ten lies in every single speech he makes is NOT really trying. Rajjpuut lost count after 84 Barak Obama lies during his Health-Care speech to the combined congress, for example.  At that point he’d claimed bi-partisan desire for the bill four different times and that the bill would NOT cost one dime in added debt five times. At that precise moment a conservative congressman had the temerity to shout out “You lie!” and Rajjpuut had 7-8 terrific orggggggggasms, so by the time he decided to continue the count the lies, the speech was ended. Hitler, who was the father of propaganda theory, unabashedly proclaimed the power of the “Big Lie” and said that the secret to success was to never stop repeating your big lies. Obama has made Hitler’s science into an art form (see item K below).

d.      The present repeated attempts to pass several hundred  or even multi-thousand page bills before they can be a) read, studied and intelligently modified b) finalized or c) all other bills in the same legal chamber be eliminated . . . are an abomination that cannot exist in the rules of any decent legislative bodies. When the bills proposed don’t even find a modicum of consensus from the sponsoring party (the Dems) who cannot agree among themselves as to abortion funding; illegal aliens; and public option and yet scathing criticism is ceaselessly applied to all who oppose the entire concept, something is very wrong.

e.       Despite the obvious fact that the American people don’t want the health care bills passed but instead are more worried about ethics of lawmakers and the national debt . . . the liberals have decided that they must win on their shameless bill.

f.        It can be rightly argued that of the major initiatives and personnel changes of the Obama administration perhaps only 25% of them are vaguely constitutional. Certainly the founding fathers would have trouble understanding the sense or “good” of at least 80%.

g.      Free market capitalism is under attack every moment of every day. In particular the small businesses in this country will be largely wiped out by the Obama initiatives especially Cap and Trade and Obamacare.

h.      Obama’s “Science” Czar John Holdren advocates forced abortions; mass sterilization of the public through secret additives in drinking water; forced individual “sterilization” and has professed great admiration for the science of eugenics because he sees population control as practically the most important single initiative a country can follow in these “polluted times.”

i.        Barak Obama has made so many mistakes every day that it’s stunning. What’s even more stunning is that he has never once apologized for a single one of them. From the Beer Summit where he jumped to conclusions about a matter he had no business commenting on, to telling the public not to jump to conclusions (about Ft. Hood’s deaths being the result of terrorism), Obama is perhaps the most-flawed of all the U.S. Presidents. Yet the only apologies he can make is to our enemies, where he seemingly is constantly apologizing that America is not yet Marxist enough.

j.        Taxing and spending and inviting ever more cumbersome and expensive bureaucracy into bed with us . . . that is the Democrats modus operandi and even after creating over $110 TRillion in debt and obligations from their three signature programs . . . they won’t stop using the same tired approach? “Why?” Rajjpuut is glad you ask.

k.      Notoriously, Obama and Barney Frank have been taunting Republicans (Obama puts it like this: “I  don’t want to hear from the people that caused the mess . . .” ) for creating the present financial mess and the public at large believes him (remember the big lie principle in propanda explained earlier) and everything he says about the subprime lending mess that the Democrats 93% created on their own. *** Barney Frank said it this way, “Ho hum, the free market excesses have ruined us AGAIN and so we Democrats need to save the country, AGAIN, ho hum.”

In short, unbeknownst to most of us, the three Government Spending Boondoggles (GSBs)Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security did us in. All three were leftist ideas and the truth about all of them has been hidden by the LEFT and by guilty Republicans. Meanwhile the outrageous GIBs (Government Interference Boondoggles) ’77 CRA, ’92 GSE, and the ’98 mortgage-guarantee legislation under Clinton FORCED the private financial sector and the public housing loan entities to enter into horrendously ill-advised loans . . . and that’s what brought the meltdown upon us. Now what has the meltdown and all the crazy acts of Obama and the LEFT-wing of the Democratic party since they swept into office all got in common? “Where and how” you ask, “does the LEFT come up with this crap?” Rajjpuut’s glad you asked . . . here are the answers . . . .

Have you ever heard of “dialectic materialism?” It’s the Marxist theory of how capitalism must always INEVITABLY be replaced by communism because, they say, of the natural unfolding of economic history. Well as you may have noticed in November, 1989 -- dialectic materialism is a load of hooey! The Berlin Wall coming down; the evaporation of the Warsaw Pact in Eastern Europe and the utter collapse of the Soviet Union were historical proof that dialectic materialism is hooey, communism is an untenable economic and social philosophy.  Even in 1966 the fallacy of pure communistic theory a la Lenin and Marx was becoming obvious to LEFTies in the west.   So  . . . .

In ’66, two LEFT-wing political science professors Richard Cloward and Frances Piven from Columbia University (a private university in New York City), decided the problem was that waiting for history to unfold perfectly according to Lenin and Marx was just too “iffy” and human beings really needed to intervene in order to speed this highly desirable process along. Their Cloward^^^-Piven Theory or Cloward-Piven Strategy suggested doing exactly that: creating crises in capitalistic free markets and in non-socialist governments to bankrupt them, befuddle them and bring them to their knees: in their own words, “bringing on political change by orchestrating crisis.” 

The political change he and she first got heavily into was when they contracted with African American militant George Alvin Wiley and helped him found the NWRO (National Welfare Rights Organization to put flesh and bone into their strategy to bankrupt the welfare system and thus, they assumed, hasten some truly radical change. The trio assumed that the forthcoming economic collapse would bring revolution to the streets as political and economic turmoil consumed the nation. It worked.

Sort of . . . .

LEFTists today “credit” (their word) Wiley’s organization and Cloward-Piven Strategy for creating the conditions that led to the “Wellfare Crisis” and eventual 1975 bankruptcy of New York City. Of course, it didn’t really work on the national scale they were hoping for and just got a lot of conservatives and other responsible people very mad. So every time Obama and the LEFTies like Pelosi, and Frank and Reid make another bumbling and irresponsible move, don’t assume they’re idiots or crazy. Crazy like a fox? Perhaps?

*** the rough order of events in the meltdown was as follows:

0.      The United States since 1946 boasted of 62-65% home ownership among its citizens, the envy o f the entire world. That seemingly natural free market ratio held true till roughly 1999. Liberals thought it wasn’t enough. Conservatives thought it was something that wasn’t broken and therefore, didn’t need to be fixed

00.    A 1975 study erroneously raises the prospects of “racism” in housing   industry lending practices. A key statistic, actually THE KEY STATISTIC as it was published was off by a factor of 1,000(instances of roughly a thousand potiential instances in the whole nation were listed to have occured over a million times in the report), and is later corrected. That original figure, however, is used time and again over the next twenty-three years as a sledge-hammer to bludgeon law-makers’ sympathies. Conservatives oppose all tinkering with the law or the nation’s home ownership practices. Conservatives are about three times more likely than liberals to be landowners and landlords. Liberals cried out in passion about the unfairness of it all and rallied behind the cry for “A home for every American!” and "Every American deserves his own home!"  That word "deserves" is the crux of the matter, Rajjpuut would say.  Has the right to full opportunity to own his own home, yes, indeed!   Has the right to make others (taxpayers) buy it for him, or guarantee him a loan he can't repay, not in your life!

1.        Leftist Democrat Jimmy Carter swept into office in 1976 with huge popular support and both chambers of congress supporting him.

2.      Carter and his supporters passed the “feel good” 1977 CRA (Community Re-investment Act) which required lenders to make deliberately bad loans if the loan applicants were buying homes in “rundown” parts of the city. 

3.      The nation underwent runaway inflation from ’78 to ’81 in good part due to the effects of this new law combined with the belated results of inflationary financing of the Viet Nam War. Finally, bankers and other lenders just plain refused to obey the law, which was so poorly crafted that they could do so without endangering their firms legally.

4.      In late 1992 the Democrats tried again and with a lot of Republican help created the GSE ACT (actually Government Sponsored Enterprises or GSE is just the common nickname and NOT the official title of the law)   which put some teeth into ‘77’s CRA legislation and also required Freddie Mac and Fanny Mae to get involved (which ultimately bankrupted both agencies by 2008).

5.       Sometime about late ’94, early ’95, ACORN got really involved in getting CRA and GSE type loans for bad risk clients. The lenders were still trying to ignore the CRA because they didn’t like being told to make bum loans. ACORN put the philosophies of the Cloward-Piven Strategy into play and hired a bunch of ultra-aggressive young attorneys to represent them and their clients. One of the most successful of these was Barak Obama.

6.      These lawyers tried out a whole new strategy which was highly effective although it amounted to little more than extorting the banks. Previously, the lawyers had relied on the “teeth of the CRA” laws to get the federal government to force the banks to make bad CRA loans. The trouble was that it took a long time and was handled on a case-by-case basis. ACORN now executed huge, angry protests in front of the banks and the lawyers meanwhile were much better prepared and knew exactly where the greatest bank weak spots (in legal argument) were. They won about 85% of these conflicts without ever going to court and even got the banks to make contributions to ACORN just to stop the constant pressure of the unrelenting demonstrations. Trials were few and far between, it’s said that Barak Obama never lost an ACORN case although he never went to trial.

7.       ’77 CRA was still the basis of the mortgage-guarantee laws and it was still a cumbersome piece of legislation.

8.      In 1998, Bill Clinton and his Democrats passed a “tighter” version of the CRA which basically put ’77 CRA and ’92 GSE on steroids. Now America had a sub-prime lending crisis building.

9.      As early as late November of 2003, James Stack of Investech.com announced the existence of a severe “Housing Industry Bubble” and warned of a sub-prime lending scandal with the power to knock the markets out of kilter. Meanwhile Alan Greenspan is praising derivative investment instruments (often with sub-prime mortgages as the underlying “asset”) as  a vital safety net and his protégé Ben Bernanke is doing the same in speeches all across the nation.

10.   The Bush administration notices the problem and in January, 2005 attempts to undo all the worst aspects of the CRA, GSE, and Clinton mortgage-guarantee laws. Democrats defeat them handily.

11.     By July, 2007, enough conservative Democrats and moderates in both parties understand there’s a huge problem and a highly-watered down refutation of the earlier laws is passed. It’s too little too late and most of the evils of those three bills are still on the books and ACORN is still pursuing the same policies even in this economic client.

12.    In October, 2007, a lot of problems begin to emerge. By October, 2008 all hell breaks loose. The immense problem has also been exacerbated by the derivatives investments based upon these faulty loans. Investors, such as the nation of Iceland, find themselves bankrupted overnight.

13.    Amen!

^^^ Richard Cloward is today most known for being the first promulgator of the theory that juvenile delinquents weren’t actually responsible for their behavior, it was all caused by poverty and they were just misunderstood . . . just another one of his theories that’s worked out really well.  Rajjpuut well remembers the first time he heard that idea lampooned in the song “Gee, Officer Krupke” in the musical Westside Story and laughed his rear-end off.

                The horrific unnecessary slaughter at Ft. Hood, Texas is all over the news.  Much akin to the FBI’s refusal in mid 2001 to investigate Arabic flight school students in Florida with absolutely no interest in learning to land or take off but only in how to fly large commercial airplanes . . . the FBI and the United States Army made one questionable decision after another about  Major Hasan's fitness to serve and ultimately started piling up stupid decisions as well:

Item: the Army received numerous complaints about Hasan and his anti-American views from fellow students and fellow soldiers.

Item: it’s apparently politically incorrect to mention that Hasan was described as a devout Muslim. Or to mention that the Koran declares, “Kill non-Muslims wherever you find them. Lie in wait and ambush them, seize and capture them, using every stratagem of war.” Today communists are allowed in the U.S. armed forces and people who’s “devoutness” includes Koran 9:5 above are likewise welcomed. Before Hasan became a “jihadi” he had obviously and almost poignantly become a conscientious objector to wars against fellow Muslims. The army paid no attention.

Item: Internet postings by Hasan in the last 6-7 months lauding suicide bombings and other forms of attack and threat to the nation brought Hasan to the attention of law enforcement; but nothing was done.

Item: the army and FBI and other law enforcement is saying Hasan’s attack was NOT a terrorist act even though he was in Muslim garb and sang out the same Muslim slogan as the 9/11 attackers when he began slaughtering fellow soldiers. Political correctness and questionable and stupid decisions killed at least 13 people and injured another two dozen plus.

Item: Hasan is believed to have attended a Virginia mosque led by a radical imam at the same time as two of the 9/11 hijackers in 2001.

Item: Hasan was reported to have said his Muslim faith and Islamic law “trumped the U.S. Constitution.”

Item: Hasan was reported to have made an academic presentation witnessed by soldiers and other students  illustrating that suicide bombing was justified for political and religious ends.

Item: even before 2001, Hasan is believed to have met with key members of the planning and execution of events on 9/11 in 2000 in San Diego.

Item: the FBI has tracked Hasan for some time because of his anti-American viewpoint. Ultimately, they did NOT inform the Army of their findings nor arrest nor question Hasan.

Item: Hasan was placed in a highly critical position, dealing with the memories, emotions and psychological problems of returnees from Iraq and Afghanistan even though he had recently earned a poor performance from his work at Walter Reed.

Item: Hasan had made several impassioned pleas NOT to be deployed in areas where he'd be supporting the Army fighting against fellow Muslims.

Item: Hassan was said by survivors of the unprovoked Ft. Hood attack and massacre to have uttered the phrase “Allah Akbar” as he attacked.

Item: The Army, the FBI, other law enforcement and the President of the United States are all telling us NOT to jump to conclusions.

Item: Rajjpuut is making a carefully weighted judgment that Obama, the FBI, the Army, etc. are all full of it. While attacks against innocent, law-abiding Muslims is NOT called for, any one of the items above should have required a simple and wise decision that Major Hasan was NOT suited to be an American soldier and indeed might be a danger to the country.

Item: Senator Joe Lieberman is conducting an investigation into whether or not the Army missed key signs as to Hasan’s embrasing of radical extremist Islamic views and whether the Army should have exercised a “zero-tolerance” policy. Duh!

Item: The Army is positioning itself to conduct a one-man trial of Hasan to cover up their knowledge and their culpability. This is a terrorist act and the Army’s negligent political correctness needs to be exposed for the deadly game it was and is.

 Marxist in Chief Refuses

                  On a day in 1989 when most of the world was celebrating, was Barak Obama pouting in his dorm room?   Was he drowning in his sorrows asking himself, "Why? Why? Why?"

                  If so, it would explain a lot. 

                  President Barack Obama's decision to spurn German President Angela Merkel's invitation for him to attend ceremonies commemorating the fall of the Berlin Wall 20 years ago is "the most telling non-event of his presidency" according to Rich Lowry, editor of the National Review.   In Rajjpuut's not-so-humble opinion, "the great orator" Obama's further decision to omit any mention of the day that brought the Cold War and the world's first communist experiment to its knees says volumes about the president's lack of excitement for a day that merely eliminated one of the most oppressive regimes in history and that set in motion the rapid demolition of the Communist Bloc.

                 Our Marxist president has traveled to more foreign lands than any other president in history but was a deliberate no-show at the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. It’s hard to imagine any president in our history not excited by the chance to appear at such a celebration of freedom . . . Barak Obama is presumably not excited by a historical event celebrating the end of the inanities, impoverishment and human rights violations that the Berlin Wall represented. All those nasty regimes that made up the Warsaw pact, including the USSR, crumbling to dust and ending the Cold War is just not our president’s cup of tea. Freedom must not be one of the “Dreams from My Father” for Barak Obama, commie wannabe.

“The sky is falling, the sky is falling, give us your tax money and shut your mouth!"

                While today’s Democratic party leadership might get credit for saying, “Never let a decent crisis go to waste, invent one, if you really need to!”  It’s clear that with Chicken Littles like Obama Science Czar John Holdren on their side, climate alarmism has become the mother of invention. Back in the mid- 70’s Holdren was already warning that we needed to cut emissions to avoid the onset of a human-created ICE AGE! Public policy emergencies are imminent, they cried, government intervention is required immediately to drastically limit the population to prevent this global-cooling disaster.

                In a book, “Eco-Science,” which Holdren co-authored with the infamous Ehrlichs, draconian population measures such as mass sterilizations (via secret addition of chemicals to the drinking water); forced abortions; and mandated medical sterilizations of certain populations (eugenics) were all advocated as reasonable means to carry out the necessary population control that might save us from global-cooling and all sorts of other population-driven disasters the trio saw coming our way.

                The inconvenient pseudo-science behind global-cooling was that smog-like emissions were making the earth’s atmosphere “opaque” and preventing sufficient sunlight from reaching the planet’s surface. Now, of course, the alarmist’s party line is that “oops, we missed on that one, but we got this one right: the earth is heating up due to proliferation of green-house gasses and the planet’s entire ecology is at risk. Our only logical step is to immediately begin population control measures such as . . ." etc., etc., etc.

                All the poor ill-informed greenies who KNOW, just KNOW that global-warming is a scientific fact and inescapable without massive government interventions are all pawns in Barak Obama’s power struggle. Obama, as is clear to anyone who read his first book “Dreams from My Father,” is a Marxist. He sees the U.S. Constitution as fundamentally flawed and the country’s long successful history with free market capitalism as an abomination.  Cap and Trade; Obamacare; “creating five million ‘green-tech’ jobs; all the stimulus funding and soon coming back to ask for more stimulus funding; moving the national debt up to 225% from where it was when he took office just 9 ½ months ago . . . it’s all about . . .

1. 1.                   More government power                  Can I get a few "Hallelujahs" on that, Brother?
2. 2.                      More government control over the economy
3. 3.                      More government intervention in every aspect of our lives
4. 4.                       More redistribution of wealth
5. 5.                     Immediate socialism and moving toward a real Marxist government by the time he’s served two terms
6. 6.                     In short, the green and other emergencies (Swine Flu, etc.) besieging us on all sides are just convenient ploys to allow the government to step into our daily lives and jettison the U.S. Constitution.

One of Obama’s biggest obstacles to carrying out his mission is barbaric and antiquated ideas we Americans have toward the notion of private property. According to Adam Smith, “Give a man a 7-year lease on paradise and he will turn it into a desert, but grant a man a life-time lease on a desert and he will turn it into an Eden.” In other words, property ownership is one of the truly good things in this world according to Smith because it motivates people to improve themselves and their lot in life. 

Through the “magic of bigger government," Barak Obama seems hell-bent on destroying all wealth and redistributing it and gradually eliminating old-fashioned concepts like private property. As his father, Obama, Sr. is quoted in “Dreams from My Father,” “There is no reason that tax levels must be limited, 100% tax is feasible, so long as privileges commiserate with contribution are granted.” In other words, you do a good job for Obama’s USA and the government will grant you the right to drive one of their cars, live in a nicer one of their homes, etc., etc.

The Straight Skinny About Liberal Dreams

of Tree-Hugging

                Good stewardship of the earth, as in conservation of resources and threatened environments and animal and plant life; prevention of toxic effects and substances despoiling the planet; some sort of wise and attractive balance between mankind and the natural world; and n0n-polluting power sources are what liberals call “no-brainers.” Unfortunately, not using your brain to go beyond these obvious desiderata and the practical implications for individual people and their governments is the reason that so many liberals seemingly act like they don’t have a pea-brain in their heads. 

                The amazing ability of green enthusiasts to demand draconian measures (including ultra-extreme population control methods) which show less than small regard for their fellow man while championing the survival of menaced mice, mosquitoes and mildew is shocking in its obvious misanthropy. In a perfect world: everybody would be green conscious philanthropists who think of fellow humans first.

                The green contingent’s miniscule regard for homo sapiens is easiest seen in the abhorrent and extreme population control methods advocated by Obama’s Science and Technology Czar John Holdren in a 1973 book he co-authored with the notorious Ehrlichs (Paul and Anne) in their “Human Ecology.” The book, said to have played a role in the passing of Roe vs. Wade later in the year, championed forced abortions, mass sterilization (via secret chemical additions via the water supply), mandatory body non-fertility implants and also paid more than lip service to eugenics. 

                The Ehrlichs and Holdren wrote: “a fetus is no more a complete human being than a blueprint is a building. The fetus, given the opportunity to develop properly before birth, and given the essential early socializing experiences and sufficient nourishing food during the crucial early years after birth, will ultimately develop into a human being . . . a fetus” is not considered a “person” under the U.S. Constitution until it is born” thus the rationale behind forced abortions etc. on “potential human beings.” Since the born child years after birth will ultimately develop into a human being, infanticide sounds reasonable, too, no?

However, Holdren, an enthusiastic worshipper of notorious eugenicist Harrison Brown is not alone among the “liberal elite” (is that an oxymoron or what?) in believing that only certain types of special people should be allowed to live . . . recently Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg in a rather shocking interview with the New York Times said, "Frankly I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want to have too many of."

There’s good reason to think that Einstein, who didn’t speak until age five, might well have been labeled as “a population” that Ginsburg “doesn’t want to have too many of . . .” Of course, 20/20 hindsight clairvoyance would help Rajjpuut decide his first candidates for abortion would be Ginsburg, Holdren, the Ehrlichs and Harrison Brown as well as mass murderers, tyrants, child molesters and all supporters of government spending and government interference boondoggles (GSBs and GIBs).  In fairness to the lady justice, it may well be that she only meant “poor people” we don’t want so many of . . . ???

If you were to make a litmus test to discover idiots from the ultra-right wing, it would probably include belief in absolutely no abortions even in case of rape or incest; creationism taught in all public school science classes and evolution banned; religion taught in public schools; and howitzers for every six-year old capable of hunting small game.  To discover extreme liberals perverts, however, the litmus test listing could be much, much shorter -- let’s shrink the list of beliefs down to just one item: POPULATION CONTROL whether that means ZPG (zero population growth) or NPG (negative population growth). One item? Is Rajjputt crazy? Consider this:

1.        Abortion on demand: plays first violin in their population control symphony.

2.      Global warming/cap and trade/green tech: all these supposed problems and impractical solutions are their bass instruments in the NPG or ZPG movement of our “Unwashed Symphony.”

3.      End of Life Counselors in Obamacare: any potential chance to refuse medicines or services to the elderly for cost control or intercede in the natural decision to live as long as possible is clearly their brass section since Medicare is the problem ($34 TRillion in obligations now and officially bankrupt in 2016) and the last six months of life cost one-half of a person’s lifetime health care expenses . . . the temptation to control costs by “omission of care” to the elderly is surely too great to be avoided.

4.      Curtailing human endeavor for the sake of “endangered species” (such as the delta smelt in California stopping irrigation of the country’s largest and most fertile vegetable growing region and driving unemployment nearby to 41%) is their greenie symphony conductor letting the world know who’s more valuable: mankind or a two-inch fish too stupid to avoid irrigation piping.

5.      Etc., etc. the main message of radical environmentalism is that people are the problem and the planet would be better off without any people, except radical environmentalists, of course, leaving no one to hum along with their symphony.

Rajjpuut finds this approach disingenuous, if nutcase greenies really cared for the planet, surely their own suicides would be the logical and integral acts affirming their love of the natural planet and hate for humankind? Save the planet^^, Greenie, kill yourself now! 

Of course, Mother Nature herself has on two separate occasions pretty well cleaned things up on her own without any help from Wall Street and other “polluters.” The comet 65 million years ago that brought on the demise of the dinosaurs and eventually the rise of mammals and even primates and mankind also wiped out 96% of all life on the planet: plant or animal; and 420 million years earlier over 98% of Earth’s life was extinctED, to coin a term, by widespread super-volcanic activity bringing down upon the planet a total ice age lasting about six million years if Rajjpuut’s memory of pre-pre-history serves correctly. Given that background a little more reverence for the preciousness of human life might surely be in order in Rajjpuut’s not so humble opinion.

 The more vocal the green advocate whether their primary focus is global warming, other ecology, or green tech . . . the more likely they are to be an advocate of ZPG or NPG. In fact many Negative Population Growth fans literally are promulgating desired human population numbers ranging from as low as 180,000 to as high as two million for the entire planet. To put that in perspective, 29 out of every 30 people living on earth would have to die to satisfy the two million figure; and 33, 332 out of every 33, 333 people now living would be sacrificed to the whims of those favoring 180,000. If that seems like some sort of cruel intellectual parlor game to you . . . you’re right . . . that is exactly the sort of Maoist-Hitleresque mentality that it takes to dream up this sort of philosophy of life. One suspects that the earth-firsters would see the necessity of including themselves in the 180,000 valuable survivors, eh?

The main reason that “thinking lefties and greenies and even anarchists” (Rajjpuut knows, yes, that’s an awful lot of oxymorons) are so in favor of forcing green tech down our throats (even at the cost of $675,000 and 2.2 real jobs** for every green temporary green tech job created by government intervention) is their fervent belief that the planet’s only hope, regardless of quiescent human population is to develop a power source that is non-polluting. In that desire and understanding is the only agreement that greenies and Rajjpuut have. Green tech is ultimately desirable. Green tech would be a godsend. However, it’s in the little matter of PRACTICALITY that we differ. To insist upon cap and trade laws now or on financing green tech now is putting the cart before the horse. Right now practical, AFFORDABLE, SUSTAINABLE green technology is a dream only.

A whole lot of people marvel at Da Vinci being beyond his time with drawings of tanks, helicopters, and submarines centuries before those ideas became practical. That’s the way it is with green tech. Let’s say that 40 years from now, 89-90% of the greenies’ fondest wishes come true and a 21^st Century Edison-clone comes along and does for power generation and green tech what Edison did for electricity . . . hurrah! What we must NOT do now is to spend today’s dollars and eliminated today’s jobs on pipe dreams. Now’s definitely NOT the time to spend money on green tech jobs and converting the power grids . . . not 40 years too early, for crying out loud. 

What we can do now is to fund research, and only research, by bona fide scientists/inventors (not global warming enthusiasts friendly to the administration’s viewpoints)who've proven their credentials most practically of all by winning contests open to anyone where anybody with a non-polluting or extremely-lightly polluting non-traditional energy source ideas can demonstrate the efficacy of their ideas. Winners win cash prizes, free patents and government research bucks for, say, ten years. When we find our Edison, then we spend and convert the energy grids, not before.

Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

** This data comes from a longitudinal study of the Spanish experience with funneling tax money into green-tech and furthermore it showed that only one in ten green-tech jobs was permanent. Many of the green tech jobs of the five million Obama promised/threatened to create will only last three weeks or a month, or perhaps six months. This means that 22 real jobs are sacrificed to create one permanent green tech job, which alas, only pays $10-$16 per hour.

It (gay marriage) is a chance to wholly transform the definition of family in American culture. It is the final tool with which to dismantle all sodomy statutes, get education about homosexuality and AIDS into public schools and, in short, usher in a sea change in how society views and treats us.

                However, the fact that President Obama’s “Safe Schools Semi-Czar” Kevin Jennings wants primary school children studying homosexuality is “very iffY” to say the least to Ol’ Rajjpuut’s thinking. 

And the fact that Jennings himself is also a big supporter of NAMBLA (nambla.org) the North American Man-Boy Love Association and seemingly a pedophile sympathizer is “iffiER,” if such a word exists. 

The fact that Jennings has praised Harry Hay effusively (Hay like NAMBLA has repeatedly, consistently and openly opposed ALL age of consent laws) saying Hay (a lifelong advocate of homosexual pedophilia) is “one of the people that's always inspired me . . .”   That’s got to be iffiest.

Jennings is also infamous for filing a counter-suit to cover up a scandal when homosexual activists were caught in a sting while teaching children as young as 13 the gruesome and painful activity known as “fisting.” Jennings has long counseled homosexuals the best way to get what they want is to avoid direct language about “promoting homosexuality” but rather to use euphemisms like “safety” and “violence.”   Appropriately enough Jennings' standing in the “Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools” is definitely on the Obama euphemism path.

Compared to the abhorrent Kevin Jennings, the now shamed communist and associate of anarchist bomb makers and bomb planters, Van Jones, appears to have been merely a exuberant ultra-leftist. Jennings and his agenda and the homosexual marriage agenda are very real threats to the American family and America itself.

Besides everything else, as a health educator, Ol’ Rajjpuut would remind the reader that homosexual behavior shortens life expectancy by 10-20 years, roughly 2 ½ times as much as smoking because of HIV prevalence 60 times higher than the general populace, 800 times higher than first-time blood donors and 8,000 times higher than repeat blood donors.” And then there’s all the other STD’s and Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C and 64% of all syphilis cases. Kevin Jennings needs to go, now and homosexual marriage needs to be stopped now. 

Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,
