A Blizzard Of Lies From Al Gore
Climate Fraud:
Al Gore resurfaces in an op-ed to say that nobody's perfect, everybody makes mistakes and climate change is still real.
And he has some oceanfront property in the Himalayas to sell you.

"Larry the Liquidator" on Senate Bill 1174 [Mackinac Center]
"Larry the Liquidator" on Senate Bill 1174 [Mackinac Center]
"From MichiganVotes.org
2010 Senate Bill 1174 (Rewrite corporate takeover rules for particular insurance company)
Introduced by Sen. Gerald Van Woerkom (R) on February 25, 2010, to rewrite the rules for corporate acquisitions so as to raise obstacles to the acquisition of a controlling interest in the Fremont Insurance Company (which is located in the district of the bill sponsor) by the Indianapolis-based Steak and Shake Corporation.
Specifically, the bill would require a two-thirds supermajority of shareholders to vote in favor of the sale if the current board of directors opposes being taken over, but only for a 'domestic (Michigan-based) insurer with 200 employees or fewer.
Take the money.
Invest it somewhere else.
Maybe, maybe you'll get lucky and it'll be used productively.
And if it is, you'll create new jobs and provide a service for the economy and, God forbid, even make a few bucks for yourselves."
This speech is from "Other People's Money," considered by some to be capitalism's finest film.
"Predatory" investor "Larry the Liquidator's" (Danny DeVito) explains to shareholders considering a vote on a "hostile" takeover the virtue of encouraging the movement of capital from less productive uses (and managers) to more productive ones, not only because it will make money for them, but because it ultimately increases the overall wealth and well-being of a society.'"
Jerry is term limited out this year.
And this legislation helps the managers of the company keep their cush jobs but at great cost to all its stockholders.
And sends a message to ALL future businesses that Michigan is special interest heaven.

Ancient Secret Service Computers Overtaxed
Ancient Secret Service Computers Overtaxed
"A classified review of the United States Secret Service's computer technology found that the agency's computers were fully operational only 60 percent of the time because of outdated systems and a reliance on a computer mainframe that dates to the 1980s, according to Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn."

Now Obama is taxing his Secret Service computers?
Computers don't even have income!

"Billionaire investor George Soros, who helped U.S. President Barack Obama raise money for his presidential campaign in 2008, said Sunday he wasn’t happy with Mr. Obama’s handling of the financial crisis.
Mr. Soros said the government should have taken over U.S. banks instead of bailing them out, a move he suggested would have been more popular with Americans."
This guy funds MoveOn.org and owns many democrat senators and congressman.
He also is a major donor to Obama.
This should scare everyone in our country.

"Congressman Charles Rangel was far from humbled after the ethics committee admonished him for taking corporate-paid Caribbean junkets in violation of the House ethics code.
Rather, the New York Democrat berated the panel’s leaders on the House floor.
The moment was characteristic of Mr. Rangel’s arrogance throughout the investigation"
My gosh!
The New York Times?

"Where's the accountability?
Two years ago, the Democrats and their friends in the liberal media were patting themselves on the back because of a National Intelligence Estimate that baldly stated, 'Iran halted its nuclear weapons development program in the fall of 2003.'
This was thought to make President George Bush look bad because he was insisting that Iran was a rogue nation that presented a growing threat in the Mideast and throughout the world"

And remember the media coverage that mocked Bush's stand!
