Congressional Motors Announces it's First Car for 2012: The Pelosi

It's in the way you dress. The way you boogie down. The way you sign your unemployment check. You're a man who likes to do things your own way. And on those special odd-numbered Saturdays when driving is permitted, you want it in your car. It's that special feeling of a zero-emissions wind at your back and a road ahead meandering with possibilities. The kind of feeling you get behind the wheel of the Pelosi GTxi SS/Rt Sport Edition from Congressional Motors.

All new for 2012, the Pelosi GTxi SS/Rt Sport Edition is the mandatory American car so advanced it took $100 billion and an entire Congress to design it. We started with same reliable 7-way hybrid ethanol-biodiesel-electric-clean coal-wind-solar-pedal power plant behind the base model Pelosi, but packed it with extra oomph and the sassy styling pizzazz that tells the world that 1974 Detroit is back again -- with a vengeance.

We've subsidized the features you want and taxed away the rest. With its advanced Al Gore-designed V-3 under the hood pumping out 22.5 thumping, carbon-neutral ponies of Detroit muscle, you'll never be late for the Disco or the Day Labor Shelter. Engage the pedal drive or strap on the optional jumbo mizzenmast, and the GTxi SS/Rt Sport Edition easily exceeds 2016 CAFE mileage standards. At an estimated 268 MPG, that's a savings of nearly $1800 per week in fuel cost over the 2011 Pelosi.

Even with increased performance we didn't skimp on safety. With 11-point passenger racing harnesses, 15-way airbags, and mandatory hockey helmet, you'll have the security knowing that you could survive a 45 MPH collision even if the GTxi SS/Rt were capable of that kind of illegal speed.

But the changes don't stop there. Sporty mag-style hubcaps and an all-new aggressive wedge shape designed by CM's Chief Stylist Ted Kennedy slices through the wind like an omnibus spending bill. It even features an airtight undercarriage to keep you and a passenger afloat up to 15 minutes -- even in the choppy waters of a Cape Cod inlet. Available a rainbow of color choices to match any wardrobe, from Harvest Avocado to French Mustard. Inside, a luxurious all-velour interior designed by Barney Frank features thoughtful appointments like an in-dash condom dispenser. A special high capacity hatchback holds up to 300 aluminum cans, meaning fewer trips to the redemption center. And the standard 3 speaker Fairness ActoPhonic FM low-band sound system means you'll never miss a segment of NPR again.

With an MSRP starting at only $629,999.99, it's affordable too. Don't forget to ask about dealer incentives, rebates, tax credits, and wealth redistribution plans for customers from dozens of qualifying special interest groups. Plus easy-pay financing programs from Fannie Mae.

So take the bus to your local CM dealer today and find out why the Pelosi GTxi SS/Rt Sport Edition is the only car endorsed by President Barack Obama. One test drive will convince you that you'd choose it over the import brands. Even if they were still legal.

Bailout Accountability and Action

I'm very concerned over the current state of our Government. It seems that once Congress passed the $800 Billion + bailout package over the objection of the majority of taxpayers, they are now free to completely bankrupt the United States as quickly as possible.

This is a letter I have sent to both Senators and my Congressman.
_________________________________________________________________________

I have decided to email and fax this letter to you, in hopes of a meaningful reply. I would appreciate real information, vice the form letter dispatched regarding the $700 Bil + bailout package w/sweeteners added by the Senate, which was passed while ignoring the objections from the majority of your constituents.

A $250 Bil portion of the bailout was set aside for direct financial infusion to the banks to restore liquidity by stimulating loans. Approximately $140 Bil of this fund has been disbursed to the banks, yet the banks are REFUSING to inject that money into the market to create liquidity and credit for consumers. Mortgage rates in this area are on the increase, and banks are not making any move toward loaning money for anything.

Some banks receiving funds from the Treasury are using it to clean up their balance sheets and are looking to purchase weaker institutions, while holding the funds. As you may recall, we were ASSURED repeatedly by Congress that this would not be allowed.

Taxpayers were also assured of accountability, access to specific information on funds disbursed, and to whom. Further, that the information would be available quickly. Unfortunately (and not surprisingly) this information is not available as promised.

No action is being taken by the Secretary or Congress to force restoration of liquidity and consumer credit, yet the handouts continue. Credit drives consumer spending and confidence, and without it we are feeding a downward spiral in every major global market, including our own.

The refusal by banks to grant credit makes correction within the housing and auto industries impossible. Companies can’t get loans to produce, and consumers can’t get credit to purchase homes or cars. The banks have decided not to infuse the system in favor of keeping our money, while Congress and Secretary Paulson do absolutely nothing.

Now Paulson has decided to pivot on where the funds will be directed. Meanwhile, Pelosi and Reid want a SECOND package, with unlimited cap loans to the auto industry? One simple question proves this plan to be utterly ridiculous:

WHAT GOOD WILL A SECOND BAILOUT DO IF THERE IS NO CREDIT TO BUY THE CARS?

Please feel free to answer if you can, because I certainly can’t.

Simply put not a single elected representative in Washington is fit to be trusted with one dime. Spending is completely out of control, and nobody has a clue what they are doing. The one sure thing is that Congress continues to finance our country, and seems Hell bent on total bankruptcy of the United States inside of a year.

Please address the following questions:

1. I would appreciate knowing when Congress intends to direct Paulson to act, and exactly what action will he be directed to take?
2. When will the so-called “accountability” information be made readily available to taxpayers (i.e.; posted online, etc.) so we may see where the money is going.
3. Why is there no move underway to secure a totally independent oversight committee and scrap the current so-called committee, which is made up solely of those already responsible for much of the mess?
4. At what point will details of the Government’s arrangements with AIG and other companies, whom we are now supposedly “invested” in be available? Congress has billed these as “investments” for the taxpayer – I like to fully research all my investments.
5. Why is Mr. Dodd not recused himself? Why has Mr. Frank not recused himself? These individuals profited from the GSEs, and had inside knowledge of the issues, and an OBVIOUS conflict of interest. Please explain to me how the Hell they are still chairing committees supposedly dealing with this crisis, while deflecting all responsibility?

Congress granted Mr. Paulson the power and is responsible for holding him accountable and responsible to the taxpayers. Congress is not doing its job, and it’s obvious that Mr. Paulson is not performing, and doesn’t appear to have a plan.

Please don’t respond by claiming that is a failure of the House to act. The Senate has the authority to take action if the House won’t - the same way you sent this bailout to them in the first place.

You are all asking for one Hell of a Boston Tea Party.

Yes - we DO need immigration reform - let's start with SSI

Most of us work hard, pay tax, and look forward to retirement at some point. Part of our retirement is SSI - and, of course, medicare, which we all pay dearly for.

Our representatives continue to talk about immigration "reform" - while most of us simply want to see the current laws enforced - and illegals deported.

Unfortunately, your elected officials decided some time ago that illegals can now file for benefits under OUR system. In fact - THEY GET MORE THAN WE DO.

Read the example below - then write your representatives and tell them to disallow ALL illegals:
___________________________________________________________________

If a immigrant is over 65 they can apply for SSI and Medicaid and get more Social Security than a citizen who worked from 1944 till 2004 - and getting $791 per month. This citizen was born before 1924 and there is a 'catch 22'.

It is interesting that the federal government provides a single "refugee" with a monthly allowance of $1,890.00 and each can also obtain an additional $580.00 in social assistance for a total of $2,470.00/month EACH.

Compare this to a single pensioner, citizen, who after contributing to the growth and development of America for 40 to 50 years can only receive a monthly maximum of $1,012 00 in old age pension and Guaranteed Income Supplement. Maybe our pensioners should apply as refugees?

Go ahead and confirm this - then forward it to every American to expose what our elected politicians have been doing over the past 11 years.

All Americans must demand that only persons who actually worked for their Social Security benefits receive them.

Islamic History Lesson - Scary

An interesting and frightening study of Islam. Regardless of all the "talking heads" (most of whom have no direct experience with, nor ever lived in an Islamic country) out there telling us to be "tolerant" of Islamic beliefs and secrecy - having lived in the Middle East, what is cited below is real life information.

We should ALL be reading this.......

Credit: From Dr. Peter Hammond's book: Slavery, Terrorism and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat

This is an interesting lesson in history of Islam and how it works in our
world and its countries - very frightening.

Islam is not a religion, nor is it a cult. In its fullest form, it is a complete, total, 100% system of life. Islam has religious, legal, political, economic, social, and military components. The religious component is a beard for all of the other components.

Islamization begins when there are sufficient Muslims in a country agitating for their religious rights.

When politically correct, tolerant, and culturally diverse societies agree to Muslim demands for their religious rights, some of the other components tend to creep in as well. Here's how it works.

As long as the Muslim population remains around or under 2% in any given country, they will be for the most part be regarded as a peace-loving minority, and not as a threat to other citizens. This is the case in:

United States -- Muslim 0.6%
Australia -- Muslim 1.5%
Canada -- Muslim 1.9%
China -- Muslim 1.8%
Italy -- Muslim 1.5%
Norway -- Muslim 1.8%

At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs. This is happening in:

Denmark -- Muslim 2%
Germany -- Muslim 3.7%
United Kingdom -- Muslim 2.7%
Spain -- Muslim 4%
Thailand -- Muslim 4.6%

From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. For example, they will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves -- along with threats for failure to comply. This is occurring in:

France -- Muslim 8%
Philippines -- Muslim 5%
Sweden -- Muslim 5%
Switzerland -- Muslim 4.3%
The Netherlands -- Muslim 5.5%
Trinidad &Tobago -- Muslim 5.8%

At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia law over the entire world.

When Muslims approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions. In Paris , we are already seeing car burnings. Any non-Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and threats, such as we've seen in Amsterdam , with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films about Islam. Such tensions are seen daily, particularly in Muslim sections, in:

Guyana -- Muslim 10%
India -- Muslim 13.4%
Israel -- Muslim 16%
Kenya -- Muslim 10%
Russia -- Muslim 15%

After reaching 20%, nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues, such as in:

Ethiopia -- Muslim 32.8%

At 40%, nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare, such as in:

Bosnia -- Muslim 40%
Chad -- Muslim 53.1%
Lebanon -- Muslim 59.7%

>From 60%, nations experience unfettered persecution of non-believers of all other religions (including non-conforming Muslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon, and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels, such as in:

Albania -- Muslim 70%
Malaysia -- Muslim 60.4%
Qatar -- Muslim 77.5%
Sudan -- Muslim 70%

After 80%, expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as these nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim, such as has been experienced and in some ways is on-going in:

Bangladesh -- Muslim 83%
Egypt -- Muslim 90%
Gaza -- Muslim 98.7%
Indonesia -- Muslim 86.1%
Iran -- Muslim 98%
Iraq -- Muslim 97%
Jordan -- Muslim 92%
Morocco -- Muslim 98.7%
Pakistan -- Muslim 97%
Palestine -- Muslim 99%
Syria -- Muslim 90%
Tajikistan -- Muslim 90%
Turkey -- Muslim 99.8%
United Arab Emirates -- Muslim 96%

100% will usher in the peace of 'Dar-es-Salaam' -- the Islamic House of Peace. Here there's supposed to be peace, because everybody is a Muslim, the Madrassas are the only schools, and the Koran is the only word, such as in:

Afghanistan -- Muslim 100%
Saudi Arabia -- Muslim 100%
Somalia -- Muslim 100%
Yemen -- Muslim 100%

Unfortunately, peace is never achieved, as in these 100% states the most radical Muslims intimidate and spew hatred, and satisfy their blood lust by killing less radical Muslims, for a variety of reasons.

'Before I was nine I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; the tribe against the world, and all of us against the infidel. -- Leon Uris,
'The Haj'

It is important to understand that in some countries, with well under 100% Muslim populations, such as France, the minority Muslim populations live in ghettos, within which they are 100% Muslim, and within which they live by Sharia Law. The national police do not even enter these ghettos. There are no national courts nor schools nor non-Muslim religious facilities. In such
situations, Muslims do not integrate into the community at large. The children attend madrassas. They learn only the Koran. To even associate with an infidel is a crime punishable with death. Therefore, in some areas of certain nations, Muslim Imams and extremists exercise more power than the national average would indicate.


Today's 1.5 billion Muslims make up 22% of the world's population. But their birth rates dwarf the birth rates of Christians, Hindus, Buddists, and Jews, and all other believers.

At current rates, Muslims will exceed 50% of he world's population by the end of this century.
