Seems About Right

Republican Establishment
All of these RHINOs complaining about the Tea Party just makes me believe that The Tea Party is a wonderful thing. First considered a conservative branch of the GOP I can see that they are getting worried. The unspoken “go along to get along” mantra that has thrived in a corrupt system is being challenged and they are freaking out.
Karl (Whiteboard) Rove and his PAC can back whomever they choose, anybody other than another liberal in office is a good thing. But the fact that the Democrats hate The Tea Party and the GOP is getting nervous means something is changing in Washington.
I don’t know that having a party split is a good thing, but if the Tea Party can continue to gain ground, the GOP will have to follow, and that my friends is change you can get behind. The rush to coddle independent voters and gain favor with the latin base does nothing but push the GOP further left, whether they want to admit it or not. Tea Party members in the congress and senate won’t crumble under pressure from the left, (unlike some current republican members whose names rhyme with Boehner and McCain).
As we have seen with the Supreme Courts decision on Obamacare, you can’t put your faith in a claimed membership to a certain party. It is the people elected under the Tea Party umbrella who will stand their ground. You can tell by all the whining from the left about radical members of congress messing up their plans to steam roll legislation through the house, something is getting under their skin.
Can The Tea Party become a stand alone party? Maybe not right now but possibly. Would it be a good thing? Absofuckinglutely!
Karl Rove says he isn’t at war with the Tea Party.
Then he blasts the Tea Party groups complaining about his new venture into Republican primary races.Former Sen. Dick Lugar (R-Ind.) is relieved the Tea Party won few victories during the 2012 election season, he said in an interview on MSNBC Wednesday
Infighting has penetrated the highest levels of the House GOP leadership. Long-standing geographic tensions have increased, pitting endangered Northeastern Republicans against their colleagues from other parts of the country. Enraged tea party leaders are threatening to knock off dozens of Republicans who supported a measure that raised taxes on the nation’s highest earners.
“It’s the same 40 to 50 chuckleheads that have screwed this place up all year,” complained retiring Rep. Steven LaTourette, R-Ohio. Boehner has “done everything to make nice to them. Bring them along. It hasn’t mattered. I don’t fault him. He’s done his best.”
The Waste Book
Since Congress is supposed to spend money according to a budget that is non-existent since 2009, it is interesting to see what they wasted money on in 2012 with no clarification of what they can spend the money on. Clear as mud?

Feds Want More Than 1% Pay Raise According To Their Union
Obama wants to give a 1% raise to federal employees, this along with a 1/2 point bump that they get normally depending on pay grade. Considering the generous pensions and health benefits these people get, I think they will survive without a raise anytime soon. And what is really maddening, the union is pissed off it is only 1%. GMAFB!
My income has gone down since the recession, and thanks to Obamacare, I will be losing even more to pay for a shitty health care package I did not want in the first place. We are going down in flames and nobody in Washington seems to give a damn.
“After all that federal workers have sacrificed the past three years, they have earned a raise,” William R. Dougan, national president of the National Federation of Federal Employees, told CNN. “I repeat, they have earned a raise. We are pleased to see the president take a bold stance and advocate for this badly-needed pay adjustment.”

Bin Laden – Benghazi: A Comparison
The Bird Feeder
Found in a comments section at Breibart. Loved it.
I bought a bird feeder. I hung it on my back porch and filled it with seed. What a beauty of a bird feeder it is, as I filled it lovingly with seed. Within a week we had hundreds of birds taking advantage of the continuous flow of free and easily accessible food.
But then the birds started building nests in the boards of the patio, above the table, and next to the barbecue. Then came the poop. It was everywhere: on the patio tile, the chairs, the table … everywhere!
Then some of the birds turned mean. They would dive bomb me and try to peck me even though I had fed them out of my own pocket. And others birds were boisterous and loud. They sat on the feeder and squawked and screamed at all hours of the day and night and demanded that I fill it when it got low on food.
After a while, I couldn’t even sit on my own back porch anymore. So I took down the bird feeder and in three days the birds were gone. I cleaned up their mess and took down the many nests they had built all over the patio.Soon, the back yard was like it used to be … quiet, serene and no one demanding their rights to a free meal.
Now let’s see….
Our government gives out free food, subsidized housing, free medical care, and free education and allows anyone born here to be an automatic citizen.
Then the illegals came by the tens of thousands. Suddenly our taxes went up to pay for free services; small apartments are housing 5 families; you have to wait 6 hours to be seen by an emergency room doctor; your child’s 2nd grade class is behind other schools because over half the class doesn’t speak English.
Corn Flakes now come in a bilingual box; I have to ‘press one’ to hear my bank talk to me in English, and people waving flags other than ‘Old Glory’ are squawking and screaming in the streets, demanding more rights and free liberties.
Just my opinion, but maybe it’s time for the government to take down the bird feeder. If you agree, pass it on; if not, continue cleaning up the poop!
