Mismanagement 101

If you needed a reminder that Obama hasn’t ever managed anything, this should serve as an illuminating example:

Clinton said in a television interview in Ecuador on June 8 that President Barack Obama had ordered the Justice Department to challenge the Arizona law because he did not believe states should set immigration policies, which could differ.

“President Obama has spoken out against the law because he thinks that the federal government should be determining immigration policy,” she said according to a transcript posted on the State Department website.

The big deal?

The Good Govn’a of Arizona has this to say:

“If our own government intends to sue our state to prevent illegal immigration enforcement, the least it can do is inform us before it informs the citizens of another nation.”

And she’s right.

Management 101.

Thanks For Nothin’

And the hits just keep comin’. 

When Congress passed the Consumer Bill of Right’s Measure everyone thought it was just the greatest idea EVER.

I didn’t so.  When given the choice of who should protect my money; me or the government, I chose me.  Every time.  Me.

Well, guess what happens when the government takes care of me?  They don’t.

Say Hello to Higher Interest Rates and Annual Fees

Just another in a long line of laws that are making things more expensive than they need to be. Just as America is trying to turn the corner and get back on our feet, the Feds have issued another decree that’s gonna make it harder to make it.

Do As I Say. Not As I Do.

Leftists.  Gotta love ’em.

Take the question of having to identify yourself to the government.

On one hand they say it’s a matter of individual privacy.  On the other, they say it’s their right.

A Rose by Any Other Name…

Bait and switch.   That’s all it is.See, when someone tells you that a can of beans is 20% off, but they have raised the price of that can of beans by 25% first, it’s called a “bait and switch”.  And it’s common among shucksters and politicians.

The fact that Obama is pulling the same fast one shouldn’t be surprising.  The fact that he is baitin’ and switchin’ with the prison where we hold our terror suspects SHOULD be surprising.  And, I suspect, it’s surprising to him that we would be a bit upset with it.

Republicans Can Be Leftists Too: Part I

I am going to have to start a new category:  Republicans Can Be Leftists Too!

See, it’s not so much the fact that I mind that the “other” team wins, it’s that they win using techniques I object too.  And when the Republicans do it, well, I can’t just let’em off the hook.

So, we have this new forum where I wanna point out Republicans restricting Liberty.  Where we show people in politics will do whatever it takes to remain in power; not govern.  And that the fight we are fighting is not just the Right vs.s the Left, but rather us vs. tactics employed by the Leftists.

Republican Rules Are Just as Bad as Democrat Rules

A lot of what I write about here bashes Democrats.  Partly because I have long associated myself with the Republican party; self-criticism is a gift. Further, we have a radical Democrat in office backed by a liberal Congress in both chambers.  And the last reason that I go after Dems more than Repubs is that the errors of the Leftists can impact economies and States.  The errors of the conservatives, while damaging, typically are not impacting on the same scale.

With that said, I know I hammer the Left.  But I can’t let this one slide.
