Any Proof Feinberg Returned The Checks?

Sep 12, 2010 Political

When Barack Obama anointed Kenneth Feinberg as the pay czar we were told that he was doing the work for free (or pro bono as they say). Yes, the guy in charge of determining pay for some private sector companies was to receive no compensation.

The only problem with that is he has a salary of over $120,000.

Contrary to press reports that he would not be compensated, uncovered Treasury Department documents reveal President Obama’s pay czar, Kenneth Feinberg, received a $120,830 annual salary.

The documents were obtained by the public interest group Judicial Watch in a Freedom of Information Act request filed July 20.

~snip~

But Judicial Watch said it obtained the Treasury Department’s June 8, 2009, welcome letter to Feinberg congratulating him for being selected “special master of executive compensation” and listing his annual salary at $120,830.

Also, the U.S. Office of Personnel Management issued a “Notification of Personnel Action” dated June 8, 2009, that established Feinberg’s salary level at $120,830. WND

After this was discovered Feinberg said that he did indeed receive a check every two weeks and that he endorsed the checks and returned them to the Treasury. And he claims he has to pay taxes on the income that he did not keep.

Is there any proof of this? I find it hard to believe that Feinberg got a check every two weeks that he signed and sent back to the Treasury because federal employees are required to have check to bank also known as automatic deposit. Unless things have changed he could not have gotten a physical check.

Therefore, he could not signed or returned one.

This is what happens when czars are appointed by Obama and skip the Senate confirmation process. We do not have full disclosure and the regime can lie about what it is doing.

So much for transparency.

Cave Canem!
Never surrender, never submit.

To Be The Chicken Or The Swine

Aug 24, 2010 Political

Looks like a chicken is calling his opponents swine. Hollywood director James Cameron previously challenged three global warming deniers to a debate about the subject and all was set after the childish demands of Cameron were met. Then, at the urging of many climate change devotees, Cameron changed his mind and called off the debate. The debate was called off while one of his opponents was in the air on his way to the event.

Cameron’s friends were worried about how he might perform and that he might get throttled in the debate so he turned into a chicken and decided against debating Andrew Breitbart, Marc Morano and Ann McElhinney.

Cameron was full of bluster and after he demonstrated what a coward he is he still had time to refer to those who are skeptical about global warming as swine.

After ducking debate, James Cameron boldly slammed global warming skeptics as “swine” on the day he was supposed to be debating them. “I think they’re swine” Cameron told a friendly audience at the AREDAY summit. Climate Depot

His opponents might be swine, at least in Cameron’s feeble mind, but they were not the ones who acted cowardly in this issue. They did not cancel the debate and though Cameron can refer to them as swine, he was certainly the chicken in all of this.

I would rather be the swine than the chicken.

Cameron has this way of running his mouth and talking like a tough guy until he is challenged and then he pulls his head into his shell and hides like a sissy. Or perhaps he places his head where he swears global warming deniers keep theirs.

In any event, Cameron once said he would like to have a shootout with global warming deniers.

I want to call those deniers out into the street at high noon and shoot it out with those boneheads. Climate Depot

I am more than willing to have an old fashioned shootout with Cameron if he would like to do that. We can either do the wild west type where we draw or we can have a real all around town shootout, whichever he prefers.

In either case I will end his miserable existence pretty quickly.

But if Cameron agrees to the shootout (and keep in mind, he said he wanted it and I am only obliging) then he absolutely cannot cancel the event. If this loud mouth puke wants a real shootout then he needs to put up or shut up. If he accepts and then backs out like he did with the global warming debate he will force me to hunt him down.

So he should choose is words wisely.

Oh wait. If he could do that he would not have made the gun battle statement and he would never have challenged people to a debate.

I love when cowardly liberal/progressives talk tough and then get called on it. It is fun to watch them slink along and cower in fear when they are actually have their bluff called.

Maybe we can have cameras there and they can catch Cameron’s last breaths. It would be fitting that his last work would be him eating his words.

And dying of something close to lead poisoning…

Cave Canem!
Never surrender, never submit.

This Is Why I Call Him Hussein

Aug 23, 2009 Political

Remember when the National Day of Prayer was, back in the spring? Do you remember how Hussein observed it? Do you?

He ignored the day- unlike his predecessor, President Bush, Hussein just totally ignored a nation’s religious heritage, which is mainly Christian and Jewish, and went on down the road, figuratively speaking. Okayyyyyyy—— not the smartest move, but then, unlike others, (mainly left- wing loons) I have never said that this guy was smart- indeed, I have said repeatedly that I thought he was dumber than a bag of hammers.

He proved it again the other day, at the start of Ramadan, when he “spoke” to the arab world to wish them well and extend “blessings”-

It’s even translated into several languages.
From the White House blog:
President Obama extends his best wishes to Muslims around the world during Ramadan. (public domain)

Now, do you remember how Obama observed the National Day of Prayer?
He distanced himself from it.
The Washington Times reported:

President Obama is distancing himself from the National Day of Prayer by nixing a formal early morning service and not attending a large Catholic prayer breakfast the next morning. 

All Mr. Obama will do for the National Day of Prayer, which is Thursday, is sign a proclamation honoring the day, which originated in 1952 when Congress set aside the first Thursday in May for the observance. 

For the past eight years, President George W. Bush invited selected Christian and Jewish leaders to the White House East Room, where he typically would give a short speech and several leaders offered prayers…

Maybe he was serious when he said America was a Muslim nation?
gatewaypundit.blogspot.com

Yea, maybe so- why else do you intentionally anger so many people who you are allegedly the leader of, while obsequiously kissing the A$$es of people you have no control over? Or perhaps it is brain damage-let’s put him on a waiting list for about a year for an MRI to find out if he’s one prayer rug short of a mosque. He can take the government plan- after all, it is good enough for us.

Of course, if he is crazy, then maybe the government plan is a load of manure. Heck, why prevaricate- we all know its a load of manure anyway, driven by a man who is so full of himself that it is a wonder his head fits in any enclosed space.

What I find amusing is Air America’s take on Hussein- now they find that he will lie to the left too, and they have their panties in a wad over the meetings with big Pharma on this healthcare fubar- they are incensed that he did not keep his pledge to have the talks on C-SPAN, and actually have the transparency he pledged to.

Go here to hear the radio hosts trash the Resident-

At least he is an equal opportunity liar- we on the right knew he was going to lie- we had listened to him during the longest campaign in history. Jews have crossed deserts in half the time that campaign took- so we knew that the lies were there. But it has taken the left awhile now to figure out that Hussein used them as a steppingstone to the White House.

When Air America is pissed at you, then you have really taken a left. It would be a NatGeo moment to film the chase of Hussein by a pack of rabid union goons who have had their health plans switched to the Gubbmint option- watch as they begin to flank him. See their pack mentality, as they circle while the Alpha hoffa sneaks around back to sever the achilles tendons- aaah yes, there he goes down, slashed at the heels. Now unable to walk, the pack dispatches him quickly in a frenzy of entitled perks.

Ah well, it was but a dream………. or was it?

Biden Pulls Numbers Out Of His Donkey

Feb 27, 2009 Political

Anyone who has ever watched Joe Biden, the smartest man to ever serve in the Senate, knows that he has quite a penchant for sticking his foot in his mouth. He makes up statistics and pulls numbers out of the air. The thing is, he is quite convincing when he does it so people believe that he knows what he is talking about. This is particularly true for those who are not particularly bright or who do not know how to look things up for themselves. These are the kind of people who, when confronted with a Biden lie, claim he only made a mistake. If that is the case, how comfortable should we be with someone who is so prone to mistakes?

After Bobby Jindal gave the Republican response to Obama’s speech (a response that had good substance but was not particularly well delivered) Biden gave his own response. Biden was on The Early Show the next day and here is what he said:

“But what I don’t understand from Governor Jindal is what would he do?,” asks Joe Biden while on the Early Show.
That rhetorical question to Governor Jindal on the Early Show, was followed with this.

“in Louisiana there’s 400 people a day losing their jobs, what’s he doing?” asks Biden. KLSA

Now, to the toadies who drink Obama Kool Aid and blindly follow him this statement will be taken as gospel and used to show how Republicans are out of touch. I mean, here is Jindal saying that Obama has it wrong when 146,000 of his state’s people are losing their jobs each year. The problem is, Biden was wrong. Like he does so often, Biden pulled numbers out of his…er.. donkey.

According to the same article:

“In December, Louisiana was the only state in the nation besides the District of Columbia, according to the national press release that added employment over the month,” says Patty Granier with the Louisiana Workforce Commission. According to her, not only is Louisiana not losing jobs. “The state gained 3,700 jobs for the seasonally adjusted employment,” Granier said of the most recent figures.

You don’t even have to take my word for it, these are number you can check out yourself if you just go to laworks.net, there you can find the latest unemployment statistics, statistics that appear to directly contradict what the vice president said this morning.

The latest stats show this – from the week ending January 17th there were 4,527 claims for unemployment insurance in Louisiana, for the next week, that number receded to 4,179.
Folks who crunch the numbers credit a diverse economy for Louisiana’s resilience to unemployment.

The article states it is unclear where the VP gets his numbers.

I think I already pointed that out…

Obama Says No Need To Stock Up On Guns

Dec 9, 2008 Political

Barack Obama must be aware that since he was elected to the presidency the sale of guns and ammunition has gone through the roof. Many gun stores report a 50-60% increase in sales, gun shows have more people than at any time in recent memory and ammunition supply places report that they are out of ammo and most is on back order. This is all because Americans are aware of Barack Obama’s stance on gun control.

But Barry says not to worry. He said that people did not need to stock up on guns because he has no intention of taking them.

“I believe in common-sense gun safety laws, and I believe in the second amendment,” Obama said at a news conference. “Lawful gun owners have nothing to fear. I said that throughout the campaign. I haven’t indicated anything different during the transition. I think people can take me at my word.”

Before it was common sense gun laws. When that did not fly it changed to safety laws and who is to say exactly what that means and according to what person’s definition of safety? Obama’s common sense laws have led his hometown to have countless murders by gun, guns that are illegal to possess in a city from which this so called gun friendly man hails (and served in office). Barack Obama has a long history of abusing the Constitutional right to keep and bear arms. There can be no doubt about this regardless of what he or his kool aid drinking followers say. Obama’s legislative record tells a much different story than the one he fabricated in order to get elected. He did not believe that it was an individual right and he sided with DC in the Heller case. It was not until after the SCOTUS ruled that gun ownership was an idividual right that Obama told us he has believed that all along (remember, if he says “like I have always said” or “I have not changed my position” then he is lying). Take him at his word? All of his promises come with expiration dates, just ask his kooky left wingnuts who are not real happy with him.

The NRA is not fooled by Obama:

But National Rifle Association spokesman Andrew Arulanandam said it’s not Obama’s words — but his legislative track record — that has gun-buyers flocking to the stores.

“Prior to his campaign for president, his record as a state legislator and as a U.S. Senator shows he voted for the most stringent forms of gun control, the most Draconian legislation, gun bans, ammunition bans and even an increase in federal excise taxes up to 500 percent for every gun and firearm sold,” Arulanandam said.

Obama answered “yes” in 1996 to a questionnaire from an Illinois group on whether he supported a handgun ban. But he later said a staffer filled out that answer and he did not support a ban.

Obama said that a staffer filled out the questionnaire but it was filled out in Obama’s handwriting. That is a talented staffer indeed. Obama wants to take guns away because an unarmed citizenry is more easily controlled by government. This government is getting more and more out of control and it will get worse under Obama. He wants complete control so he can run his Socialist Utopia and he knows that the armed among us will not take his crap.

It should surprise no one that Obama will ignore the Constitution because he is doing so right now. He has not proven he is a natural born citizen and thus will be an illegitimate president. Maybe this is the perfect ruse for him. He can impose all kinds of things and then when the armed take the country back he can say that it is not his fault because he is not really qualified for the job. He can then throw whomever failed to properly vet him right under the bus.

If Obama is telling you there is no need to stock up on guns then you need to stock up on guns. He and the idiots who want to remove guns from society believe they know better than you how to live your life. They believe they are smarter than you and they should be deciding on dangerous things like guns. This is what Peter Hamm of the Brady Center against Gun Violence had to say:

“Anyone who thinks they need to rush out and buy a firearm clearly has not been paying attention to how quickly we make progress on this issue. We don’t think these are first-time buyers. We think they are people who already have more than enough guns at their homes to protect themselves and are buying more.”

These are people who already have more than enough guns. Who is this jerk to decide how many is enough? Does this guy go around telling people they have too many cars, or too many pair of shoes, or too many clothes? If people have the money and they want to buy lots of guns then who is Hamm (or anyone else) to say that they already have enough? This is the same philosophy that liberals use when they take you money in taxes. You already have enough so we will take some from you.

Barak Obama must think that he has credibility because he won an election. He lost his credibility a long time ago and were it not for white guilt and dreamy eyed liberals (coupled with blacks voting for race) he would be another name in a history book. His word is his bond but only to the idiots who supported him. The rest of us know better.

But Barack Says there is nothing to worry about and that we do not need to buy guns. He even says he is all in favor of gun ownership. Yes, Barack Obama is a friend to the gun owner. I don’t believe that for a minute.

And judging from the sales of guns and ammo, neither do a lot of others.
