Pay The Fiddler

Some of you that are old enough might know what the people in the photos are doing. Those of you that don`t know might want to Google some subjects like, soap making...

Or, canning your own food,

Or making your own clothes, Or gardening, Or how to skin a deer and perserve it.

These are things that you might need to know if the Democrats have their way.

It can`t happen again, you say ? I say it can. Take a look around you, the whole world financial system is on the brink .

OPEC says they are going to cut production... still the price of oil tumbles....

America, ( and the rest of the world ), has had too much credit / debt for too long. Now it is time to pay the fiddler.

I`m putting my money into ammo and chickens.

GOD BLESS AMERICA , Y`all.

AIG - Party Time !!

IF you were wondering why I am so dead set against the bailout.... Here is one reason...

Borrowed from FOX NEWS

If you'd just gotten a government bailout, you might be tempted to hold a retreat at a nice California hotel -- and that's exactly what American International Group (AIG: 3.51, -0.36, -9.30%) executives did.
The committee on Oversight and Government Reform held a hearing on Tuesday at 10:00 a.m. Eastern time. to address and examine downfall of AIG, the world’s largest insurance company. The committee planned to discuss the financial excesses and regulatory mistakes that led to AIG’s government bailout.
One of the items discussed was AIG’s expenditure of $440,000 for a corporate retreat at the St. Regis Monarch Beach resort in Los Angeles, Calif. These funds were spent on Sept. 22, a week after the Federal Reserve extended an $85 billion emergency loan to AIG to keep it from going bankrupt due to insurance liabilities.

According to the receipt from the St. Regis, the eight-day company retreat was a lavish one -- $139,000 was spent on hotel rooms, while even more money -- $147,301 -- was spent on banquets. Another $23,380 was spent on undisclosed spa treatments and another $6,939 was spent on golf. A full $9,980 was spent on room service and food and cocktails at the hotel lounge.
The St. Regis Monarch Beach resort is described on its Web site as “a landmark resort of legendary proportions.”
Legendary, indeed.

These people are criminal low lifes of the worst kind. They have stolen and squandered Trillions of dollars of our HARD earned savings !!

GOD Bless America, Y`all.

Bail Out ?

I have a question ... Since the government " bailed out " all of these bad loans, are the lenders going to sell the foreclosed homes and keep the money ? Or are they going to forgive the back payments ? Or are they going to give a break to those that are current ? ( If you have struggled through and made your payment, tough $#!t ) ?

GIVE ME A BREAK !!!! This whole damn thing STINKS to high heaven .

GOD Bless America Y`all

A Little More Help Is ALL We Need !

I thought Sarah Palin did better than expected in last nights debate. On the other hand, Biden ( in true politician fashion ), completely evaded at least 2 questions. Just didn`t answer the question at all.

On another note, Texas Fred and I have been watching our Texas politicians pretty close and frankly we both have been disappointed on the way they voted on the bail out. If you will notice, I have pulled the plug on the John Cornyns link here. In the past I have totally supported Cornyn, but it seems he has been bought off by big business now. In a recent news story from his visit to Lubbock , he compares himself to a fireman putting out a "financial fire". I am a fireman and I tell you that firemen don`t always take the easy way out. They attack the fire head on and then take steps to insure that it does not rekindle. They take the risk and take the heat and when they are through, there is no fire. Bail Out is like throwing a bunch of wood on a fire and then saying, I don`t see any more fire, it`s OK.

One thing both debaters agreed on last night is... This is probably the most important election you will ever vote on.

GOD Bless America, Y`all.
