Any chance that we won't outspend our debt limit again in a few years if we raise it? Zip, Nope, and None!

Do we actually believe that there is any chance that we won't outspend our debt limit again in a few years if we raise it?

This is not the same as paying our bills, as the President says because when we pay our bills, debt should decrease.

This is the exact opposite of what is happening now. Now we are running up our bills with no end or hint of responsibility in sight if we write ourselves another blank check in 2 weeks and a mid-October fiasco probably coming up.

Whoever would come up with such a smoke screen idea that paying our bills is merely keeping track of the debt and not paying the debt down is a filthy liar!  Oh yeah!  That would be President Obama, and possibly the Legislature, which should call the President on his lies, as a responsibility of the checks and balances our government is supposed to work on.

Smoke screens on the economy.  Smoke screens on the governments debt.  Failure to work toward a fiscally responsible goal.  I bet the death of Osama bin Laden was a smoke screen too given all the bull our President tells us.

What Is The Worst Kind of Corruption?

Judges hold the key to freedom.  Police are sometimes overzealous and have guns.  Politicians could sodomize each other for all I care. I don't believe politicians have had any sort of sovereignty since Obama took office, not like what happened when Bush Jr. was in office.

People feared Shrub because he was borderline dumb and he had the legislature by their balls. Obama may have some accomplishments, yet some of them I imagine are faked, such as the slaughter of Osama bin Laden.  President Obama's asshole commentary on the economy leads me to suspect that because it is so full of distortions that it is essentially lies.

Politician or judge depends on who is in the position of power.  Serving on the Supreme Court is a life sentence, and under our borderline corrupt Supreme Court, there is potential for some really bad decisions.  However, I think 5 to 4, that vote that wins usually reflects my opinion though most opinions I agree with and they are better than 5 to 4 decisions.  If that wasn’t the case I think that would be very horrible.

Under Bush Jr. we had the horrible Patriot act and the even more horrible Patriot II act.  I remember those times being paranoid.  The legislature was in power then, and I feared them for no other reason than the amount of poor decisions they made.  That was when the economy was in a downward spiral.  Currently, President Obama is doing a good job remaining composure, such that the Union hasn’t crumbled.

Under Obama though perhaps I should fear him like a leader, I just don't.  As far as a judge goes, I have only been called to do jury duty once and they didn't take my panel. That is the closest I have been to a courtroom in my life.

I do know what it is like to be locked up for mental illness.  After a few weeks it got boring.  I felt trapped.  However, I would liken that sort of lifestyle to living in a city.  I don't like the city; all eyes are watching so it would seem.

I Didn't Write This, But Preventing Animal Cruelty Is Very Close to My Heart

Watch this mother pig's story and help animals like her»

September 12, 2013 Dear Craig, You can call me "Andy." It's not my real name. But since I'm an undercover investigator for The Humane Society of the United States, I have to keep things anonymous. As for my work, that's a different story. My job is to bring the darkest cruelties against animals out into the light for all to see. Today I want to tell you about one mother pig at a factory farm in Wyoming. Watch her story, and then please make a gift for animals like her. When I found this sow one day last April, she was lying on the ground -- her legs were swollen and covered in deep gashes. She had sores all over her body. I tried to give her food but she wouldn't eat it. When I touched her legs she recoiled in pain. The people responsible for her care did not even leave her water. But, I caught a few drops of water from a nearby hose and brought my hand to her mouth. All of a sudden, she lifted her head and lapped up the water. With all the strength she had left, she inched her way toward water -- for what might have been her last drink. See this sow's story -- then please make a gift to help stop this kind of animal cruelty and many other forms of animal abuse. It pains me to think about how she came to be in this condition. She was just a number to the people running this facility, a unit that wasn't producing. There were many -- too many -- other horrors at this facility. Workers punching pregnant mother pigs, drop-kicking piglets like soccer balls and smashing them into concrete floors. My job is to document these abuses for one reason: to expose them. And it's working. As a result of this investigation, seven workers at this factory farm pleaded guilty or were convicted of animal cruelty. And, we've worked with more than 60 major companies -- including McDonald's, Burger King, Costco, and Target -- to announce that they will stop using small, metal cages in which breeding sows are confined for almost their entire lives. This is tremendous progress, but there's still so much work to be done. Craig, will you make a gift today of $35.00 -- or whatever you can afford -- and help us continue our work to create a better world for all animals? Together we will confront cruelty wherever it exists, taking on the individuals and industries that profit from animal suffering -- from people who mistreat dogs in puppy mills, to those who club baby seals to death in the name of fashion, to corporations that abuse animals in factory farms. Thank you for everything you do for animals. Sincerely, "Andy" Undercover Investigator The Humane Society of the United States

Where Is Endgame In Syria?

If you have been following the situation in Syria, then you probably know that whether Assad is in power or the rebels are in power, neither is an ideal situation.  In fact, sitting back and thinking, perhaps the situation now is ideal.  We have the rebels taking up Assad’s attention, such that Syria’s hands are tied. 

We don’t like Syria because they say only Muslims should rule, or at least practically all of the people of Syria.  Personally, I don’t consider Islamic rule as ideal, such that I don’t see any sort of world advantage war in Syria will gain for the USA.

I can’t say that I agree with the use of chemical weapons, but I don’t see use of chemical weapons as a line of demarcation where it becomes paramount that the U.S. gets involved.  Please Congress, send a message to the President that we do not want another war.  If it is true that the Syrian’s are willing to use them on their own people speaks volumes for how low of a nation this country is.

Strangely, this is coming at a time where we are thinking of raising the debt ceiling again.  I am wondering if there was foul play and Assad didn’t use chemical weapons, but some other party used them, so that the President and Congress can gain the patriotic momentum that they will need to raise the debt ceiling through war.  We won’t be able to go to war in Syria if we don’t raise the debt ceiling. 

Remember, this was the time that the Republicans were going to put down their foot on the issue of the debt ceiling.  But, will they put down their foot at the risk of not having another war?  The Republicans have long been the party that is more trigger happy than the Democrats.  So, will we go to war?  The answer is yes, and only because someone has played the war card in Syria, throwing House Republicans in a tizzy.  They can’t be the world policeman if they vote against raising the debt ceiling!!!

So where should the endgame be?:  The endgame should be now! 9/2/2013

Using ECT Weight Loss Treatment

Today when I awoke after dreaming, I imagined I had invented a way to help folks that are desperate lose weight via electrically shocking them when they eat. Then, I thought it would be too hard to tell weather water or hard food was consumed, and if someone was really hungry they could just cheat and eat soda, but with enough persistence I was able to come up with a workable idea. It gave me the giggles though to think about electrically shocking folks.

By golly I've got it! I could electrically shock folks by degree based upon how much they displace at home when they use their toilet. So my thinking is that if the toilet is filled too much and too often, then they would have submit to a zap for that. Yeah!

Humorous CD Player Invention

The invention is running a cd walkman of rests on your face.  The disc itself would revolve around the tip of the clients nose.  This would require a very small stabilizer on the nose that does not revolve, and a part that does.

The apparatus would be for lying on one's back.   It could be used perhaps when napping.  Naturally, some effort would need to be made to keep it light.  For example, it would probably be a good idea not to have a cover that goes over the top of the spinning cd.  However, if there was a cover, it may be a good idea to put PV (photovoltaic cells) on the top of that cover, so that they could be used as a power source.  However, in my mind, the cd player was to be battery operated.

Really, at heart this is a gag gift.  Though it may make some money, it is not ment to be taken seriously.  I do think that there could be a small market for it.  The idea came to me by way of a dream.  Usually, my dreams crash and burn in nonsense.  However, this time I dreamed a possible dream.  I may even call it a gift from Hashem.

Is There Anything We Can Gain From The Cape and Islands Wind Farm?

Who would have thought that the wind turbine issue would be so great? Whatever the case, we need to get some hard data on how these turbines are affecting people before we shut them down. I don't think that we have seen the last of wind power. I do believe we need to move on with wind power once we figure out what has gone horribly wrong. Keep the hope that wind power is something good, and does have real and good applications. We just need to find out where we went wrong so that we can fix it. My own instinct as a science educated person is that what is giving people vertigo and dizziness via noise and pressure should somehow be collected and used as power, and that the problems of the wind turbines should be converted to useful energy.

As an outsider, without any data, this is my pathetic guess as to what is going wrong.  The reason people are probably suffering so much is from the centrifugal force that is exuded at the tips of the wind mills.  If there was a collector of that force that brought it back (parallel to the turbine aerodynamically, or within the wind turbines themselves), perhaps a tube of sorts, that energy could be collected, and converted to useful energy.
