Coveting Hell

I think Obama is confusing his buddy Rev Jeremiah Wright with MLK. Rev Wright could be a keynote speaker for this crowd, and probably will be if there is a OWS in October 2012 as part of Obama’s reelection bid.

Obama’s comments also show how little he understands and believes in Christian philosophy and religious beliefs.

One of the ten commandments is all about not coveting your neighbor’s wealth — Yet promoting the taking of your neighbors wealth is what the OWS crowd and the Obamacrat’s Class Warfare is all about. We’ve already got a very progressive tax code that is all about taking from your neighbor to pay for health care, house, food and more. Just how is that working for everyone? Could it be if you follow the devil, you're likely to live in hell?

Cain has it right — He was taught not to covet his neighbor’s Cadillac, he was taught to work hard to buy his own…

If only the average religious social conservative were only as vehement about protecting this commandment against Class Warfare and jealousy as they are about protecting the unborn. Is there an eleventh commandment about how it's acceptable to choose and pick what commandments you wish to follow?

Big versus Small Government ignorance

Conservatives continue to be misguided in promoting the goal that small government is the solution to the nation’s woes.

Small government is the result of promoting dynamic individually driven social marketplaces. Just having a small government doesn’t mean one necessarily has dynamic individually driven social marketplaces. However, any society with dynamic individually driven social marketplaces will have a small government footprint.

Conversely, big government is the result of promoting collectivist politically driven social marketplaces. In this regard Pelosi is correct : Small government, without vibrant individually driven social marketplaces that provides access to care for those of limited means, may allow women to die on the floor.

Conservatives should expect this sort of nonsense to continue to gush out of liberals mouths so long as conservative leaders continue to promote small government as their primary goal, rather than first promoting vibrant individually driven social marketplaces.

Translation — Conservatives will continue to look stupid to many of the electorate as conservatives just don’t get the importance of properly designed and operated big or little social marketplaces.

Fine print — RINOs and most of the GOP LOSERship don’t get the individually driven social marketplace concept any more than liberals -- they haven't figured out how to leverage individually driven social marketplaces to promote their power.

VAT Solioquy

To VAT or not to VAT,
that is the question,
Whether tis nobler
to suffer the confusion and political panderings
of a bloated incomprehensible tax code,
or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by opposing end them.
To put them into permanent sleep,
Perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub,
For in that sleep what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off these mortal flaws,
Must give us pause of prosperity possible,
thru a simpler, fairer burden that all shall carry...

But alas, not to be,

The undiscovered country, from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all,...
============

A VAT based world might work just fine, if it could totally replace the income tax, in it's various forms. However, there are too many unwilling to make the leap from our current system, no matter how corrupt and flawed, to another world. Just be glad these aren't the same self limiting folks that were around during the time of the Revolution.

Nightmare on Pennsylvania Street

The Obamacrats are running scared and searching for a way to add some enthusiasm to their base.

As evidence to what’s possibly coming around the corner, last night, I got a short robo phone poll call that asked should Obama have Hillary or Biden as VP in the coming election. As I recall the only other questions were about party affiliation, race and my age. Short and sweet, no asking for donation$, no person to talk to, just listen to the prerecorded message and push a button according to my response.

So don’t be surprised if pretty soon (July 2012?), there’s some more feelers out there about dumping Biden and adding Hillary to the ticket as a means to create some enthusiasm beyond their extreme Blue/Green base. My guess is this may start with the PRESSSSident reporting on some new gaff that Joe makes to start the process of pushing Joe under the bus -- this might take at least a couple hours of following Joe around...

This also means that Obama’s Class Warfare strategy has wrapped up the Blue/Green base so no Democrat (aka Hillary) can run a primary challenge to the One. After O’s recent campaign sweeps, the extreme Blue/Green bucks are pretty much totally committed to Obama, there’s simply no left wing money left…

Go figure, this is also why, outside of the extreme Blue/Green base, there’s also not much enthusiasm left to spread around. It’s like rank & file Dems are all being forced to give up a nice Sunday Football afternoon to line up at the local theater to watch the sequel to a really bad movie (Nightmare on Pennsylvania Street) — as if changing some names on the marquee will actually fix the Nightmare’s sequel when everyone knows the plot is just more of the same… Go figure why the rank & file Democrat probably feels they’ve got something else better to do -- In addition to watching some football, they'll may check to make sure the honeydew list includes taking out the trash should the POTUS show up at halftime to disrupt their game…
