Folks, get ready to send even more of your money overseas. I think most people would be shocked to learn just how much taxpayer money is sent overseas, but it is a drop in the bucket compared to what is coming. Obama is going to make darn sure that wealthy Americans are “held accountable” for all of the needs of the entire world. He is going to take money from wealthy Americans to not only line the pockets of lazy Americans, but also send money to Africa, East Asian, and Muslim nations.

Here is what the World Bank (which is the most misleading name ever. It is a bank funded by America that sends money to the world).

DAR ES SALAAM, March 8 (Reuters) - Developing countries could face a financing gap of $270 billion to $700 billion this year as trade income dwindles and rich nations vie for capital to deal with a global slump, the World Bank said on Sunday.

The World Bank said even at the lower end of that estimate, resources of international institutions would not be sufficient to meet the financing needs as more and more emerging and developing countries are hit.

“There is a therefore a strong need to expand assistance to (lower income countries) to protect critical expenditures and prevent an erosion of progress in reducing poverty,” the World Bank said.

In other words, get out your checkbooks. If Obama thinks that wealthy Americans need to “do their part” to line the pockets of the “poor” in this country, you can bet he will force us to pay for developing nations. After all, the “poor” people in the US would live like kings in these countries. Just more class warfare and hatred of the “wealthy”.

So is pork bad, or not? Obama cannot make up his mind. Sure, he made promise after promise after promise that he would eliminate pork, but c’mon! He is a politician! What are promises? Now his Administration is back to making more promises to cut pork, just not right now.

After all, you have to payback the people who got you elected. Nothing like a little pork and pet projects, at the taxpayers expense of course.

The best part of this interview is when Obama’s budget director said that Obama has “little power” over this year’s spending bill…. Uh…. HE IS THE PRESIDENT!!!! He has the ULTIMATE power! It’s called NOT SIGNING THE BILL!

Idiot.

WASHINGTON (CNN) — Facing mounting criticism of a spending package packed with billions of dollars in earmarks, the Obama administration made a vow Sunday: This president will bring a halt to pork-laden bills.

Peter Orszag says it is too late to cut earmarks from the spending bill inherited from the Bush administration.

“[Such bills] will not happen when the president has the full legislative and appropriations process in place,” Peter Orszag, director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, told CNN’s “State of the Union with John King.”

He argued that the White House had little choice but to support the $410 billion omnibus spending bill, which it inherited from the previous administration. The bill would keep the government running through 2009.

Yea, poor Obama. He just doesn’t have any power or influence right now!

Green programs don’t save economies. Light rails in dying cities don’t save economies. Researching frogs don’t save economies. Promoting the “arts” does not save economies.

Obama’s spending program, the largest non-war spending bill ever, is simply a gift to the liberals and little more. It is a gift to the eco-hippies, the artsy crowd, and the social welfare supporters. I don’t even think that is up for debate; just look at where the money is going.

What really frustrates me is Obama’s outright disdain and disrespect for the stock markets. They have clearly shown their disgust of this administration (the market is down 31% since election day - a truly shocking figure in just 4 months.) What liberals fail to realize is that the stock market is the home of the retirement investments of millions of Americans. So when policy destroys businesses in this country, it subsequently destroys the retirements of American citizens. But what am I thinking…. Obama only cares about the irresponsible, poor, and unemployed Americans. He surely doesn’t care about people who, you know, actually saved money for retirement.

If you want to really learn about how Obama is ushering in a new Depression, just read the WSJ Op-Ed pages. Here is an excerpt from a recent article:

 The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell another 281 points yesterday, or 4%, while President Obama began his political push for nationalizing health care and Barney Frank called upon state, local and federal officials to prosecute “those people whose irresponsible and, in some cases, criminal actions helped bring about this crisis.” (In what must have been an oversight, Mr. Frank left himself off the target list.) Citigroup — subject of three federal “rescues” so far — closed at $1.02 a share.

The larger point is that economies don’t spiral down forever without a reason and without policy encouragement. What’s worrying about the plunge in equities since January 2, and especially in the last week since Mr. Obama released his radical budget, is that it has come amid the unveiling of the President’s policy agenda. Equity prices have reacted to those proposals by signaling that they expect a much deeper and longer recession.

The optimistic message in Mr. Cogan’s comparisons is that recessions eventually end. How long they last, and how severe they get, depends in part on the choices our leaders make. The choices that Mr. Obama and Congress are making so far are not contributing to confidence, much less to recovery.

This is one of the biggest injustices going on in the world today, but because it is white’s that are harmed the media glosses right over it. Can you imagine if we had a white dictator taking land from blacks? I think the story would be covered 24×7 by the mainstream media.

The targeting of Stockdale Farm, where unarmed squatters have done little more than plow one field and hang around, is part of a surge in recent attempts by cronies of President Robert Mugabe to confiscate the last of Zimbabwe’s white-owned properties, farmers’ advocacy groups say. And some government officials and Western diplomats warn that it shows the volatility — perhaps even the futility — of the power-sharing arrangement between Mugabe, who has ruled Zimbabwe for 29 years, and longtime opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai.

 At his 85th birthday gala days later, Mugabe vowed that land redistribution, which he calls a remedy for colonial injustice but which has usually benefited his elite supporters, would continue until all white farmers were gone.

 Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters,

 

We’ve stuck together since the late 1950s, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know that we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly this relationship has run its course. Our two ideological sides of America cannot and just will not ever agree on what’s right. So let’s just end it right now while we can do it on friendly terms. We can smile, shake hands, chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and each go our own way.

So here’s a model separation agreement.

Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by land mass, each taking a portion. That’s going to be the difficult part, but I’m sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After that, it should be relatively easy. Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate taste. We don’t like redistributive taxes so you can have those. You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU. And since you hate guns and you hate war, we’ll take the firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military. You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O’Donnell. But you are going to be responsible for finding a biodiesel vehicle big enough to haul them around.

We’ll keep the capitalism, the greedy corporations, the pharmaceutical companies; we will keep Wal-Mart and Wall Street. You can have the homeless, the homeboys, the hippies and illegal aliens. We will keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, the greedy CEOS and all of the rednecks. We’ll keep the Bibles and we’ll let you have NBC and Hollywood.

You can be nice to Iran and Palestine and we’ll retain the right to invade and hammer anybody that threatens us. You can have the peaceniks and the war protesters. When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we will provide them with security. You won’t have to worry about it. We will keep our Judeo-Christian values. You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism and Shirley Maclaine. You can also have the UN, but we will no longer pay the bill.

We will keep the SUVs, the pickup trucks and the oversize luxury cars. You can have the compacts, the subcompacts and every Subaru station wagon you can find. You can give everybody healthcare, if you can find any practicing doctors. We will continue to believe that healthcare is a privilege and not a right. We will keep “The Battle Hymn of the Republic” and the national anthem, and I am sure you will be happy to substitute in their place “Imagine.” I’d like to teach the world to sing “Kumbaya” or “We are the world.” We will practice trickle-down economics and you can give trickle-up poverty your best shot. And since it so offends you, we will keep our history, our name and our flag.

Would you agree to this? If so, please pass it along other like-minded liberal and conservative patriots. And if you do not agree, just hit delete. In the friendly spirit of parting, I’ll bet you ANWAR which one of us will need whose help in about 15 years.

Sincerely,

John J Wall

From Neal Boortz

C’mon, Obama. Just own up to it. You are a big government President. Why the spin? You believe that the government exists to solve every problem in the world, and you are doing everything you can to live out your dream. For some reason you believe that where others fail (USSR, China, Cuba, Venezuela, France, Germany, etc, etc….) you will succeed. Of course you will. After all, you are the Messiah. The Chosen One. The rock star. Your name be praised.

We already know you are a hypocrite (where to even begin). You support a Spending Bill with such an absolutely embarassing amount of earmarks that I cannot for the life of me understand how anyone could live with themselves for writing, supporting or (gasp) signing this insult to America. But hey, “equal protection under the law” only applies during good times, right?

But it’s not just the earmarks. You are bound and determined to make sure that the top 2% of wage earners (who don’t have enough votes for you to care), fund the every fantasy of your lower-class, lazy, overweight, whiny, populist voter base. You obviously have no shame. You are willing to force a minority of taxpayers that you don’t care about to pay for such insane things that you cannot possibly posess an ounce of shame. Or integrity for that matter. I see you want the goverment to pay for home improvements now.  But unlike your voter base, I am smart enough to know that the government doesn’t actually pay for anything. The taxpayers do. And under your Master Plan, only 2% of the taxpayers do. What a great way to buy votes! Again, that darn “equal protection under the law” stuff doesn’t apply to taxes. We all know that.

To top it all off, we are all soon going to be under the “Obamacare” health plan.  Again, the government that still puts my neighbor’s mail in my box and operates the ever-so-efficient Bureau of Motor Vehicles and IRS is somehow qualified to manage my health care. Yea. Right. Anything to make the government bigger, right Mr. Obama? But hey, I understand that when you rely on the votes of the botton rung of society, you do what you can to buy their support. That is all this is - buying votes. No sane person really thinks government health care is the answer to anything other than bigger government.

But the real icing on the cake is that you elect to increase taxes on the group that keeps this economy affloat during  the biggest economic crisis in 80 years. What are you thinking? Oh, I remember. You are thinking that a bad economy makes more people dependent on the government, which in turn benefits the Liberals. So perhaps you like this whole “bad economy” thing. It sure is ussuring in the era of Socialism that you and your do-gooder elitist clan have been peddling since the 60s.

Just remember one thing, Mr. President. If it wasn’t for the top 5% of the population, the bottom 95% would starve to death.

Well, we all knew this was coming. In his attempt to be the undisputed King of Earth, Obama is discussing a “global New Deal” which would take money directly out of the hands of US taxpayers and spread the wealth across the world. Because, you see, it is not good enough to simply rob from the rich to support lazy Americans, now we must rob from the rich to support all the lazy peoples of the world.

 GORDON BROWN hopes to forge a partnership with President Barack Obama in Washington this week, to call for a “global new deal” to lift the world out of recession.

This story is just starting to leak, and I am certain the liberal media will try to stifle it because they know that most Americans will not support Obama’s plan to globalize the economy and send even more US taxpayer dollars overseas.
