Been awhile

Well, it has been quite a long time since I've posted anything on this blog.  I'm thinking about posting again but not sure.  Be on the lookout for more...or not.

Eric Cantor

All incumbent GOP Congressmen in Virginia won over 60% of the vote except Eric Cantor.  Perhaps there is a message for Eric in this statistic.  The message I hope he takes from this is that we are unhappy with his hypocritical votes under Bush that grew our government.  Eric is partly to blame for the current debt thanks in part to his leadership of the GOP under President George W. Bush.

Act like a Republican, Eric, and cut the size of government.

Nobel Peace Prize

Chinese dissident wins 2010 Nobel Peace Prize.

Just curious, did this year's winner actually DO ANYTHING to deserve the prize or is this another "hope and dream" handout?

$111 Million in Federal Stimulus Wasted

http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-stimulus-audit-20100917,0,3706864.story

What did the auditor find was part of the problem? Too much government red tape. That is, government is too big and gets in the way...even of itself.

Moral of the story is that government is too big and the stimulus is too ineffective. The former should be cut down and the latter would have been better off as tax cut to let individuals decide how to spend or invest their own money. After all, tax dollars are OUR DOLLARS FIRST.

Working with Business, Not Against It, Mr. President

http://www.cnbc.com/id/38832142

My favorite quote: "Think about how much good it would be if [President Obama] pledged to grow the economy by working with business, not against it,” argued Cramer."

President Obama is so intent on growing the government and making Americans so dependent upon the government that he forgets the taxes paid to support the government come from private citizens and private industry.

He also seems to forget that government borrowing and taxes take money away from the private sector which could otherwise be spending the money they have earned or reinvesting that money to create more jobs and grow the economy.
