Cash for Clunkers is Dead?
Not good: More concerns about what the hell the Obama administration’s doing.
Cash for Clunkers – which benefited We the People (yeah, and the car makers too) — is apparently dead, after less than a week. I looked at that site yesterday after hearing lots of ads on the radio about it and — literally — and there were millions of dollars left.
We have two 20+ year old clunkers. We were thinking about turning both of them in for one new car, based on the clunker deal. We thought we had until November to do so but ah, guess not.
This doesn’t look good Obama — especially when compared to the billions given to the banks.
Here’s a screenshot of the cars.gov. site tonight.
Yesterday (wish I’d taken a screenshot) the dial was at about ten. But supposedly there was $779M remaining as of 10:00 a.m. this morning? That was all spent today?
Something’s seriously wrong here.
Unpatriotic Birthers
The birthers? They’re fundamentally unpatriotic.
They’re the same people who cheered the creation of new bazillion-dollar “security” agencies like the Department of Homeland Security. They love and trust the FBI and ICE. So what’s with thinking that a “foreign national” could slither in — undetected – and become the president of the United States? Isn’t that an insult to those institutions and their intelligence capabilities?
Obama Fail
We all know that per Fox “News,” President Obama (and Democrats in general, for that matter) can’t do anything right. The latest proof? This:
“Beer Summit” Countdown Clock
Unbelievable. MSNBC is actually showing a clock which is counting down to the 6:00 p.m. “beer summit” at the White House.
Oop, so is CNN.
I’m embarrassed to be an American when I see our “news” outlets stoop this low, treating us like idiots.
