Are you in fear of Czars?

You do realize that roughly only 50% of Americans voted for and approve of this President. Does the 50% that approve ever think about the 50% that don't approve and why they might not approve? These are your friends, neighbors, relatives, they sit in the pew next to you at church, are you totally correct in your thinking or just too blind to the fact that the anointed one might not be the person you thought he was? Have you never found yourself questioning some of the things he's doing and the real changes he wants to make to OUR country? Have you watched any of the before and after video's of his promise speeches or counted how many promises he's already broken? Has it ever occurred to you that when you type his name spell check does not recognize it and wants you to change or correct it? Have you really looked at some of Obama's Czars? Do you have concerns when it comes to the people our President surrounds himself with?

I just deleted eight paragraphs with a bit about 6 Czars and two advisers, these paragraphs went into some detail of each and their beliefs. I figured you'd probably start reading but quit part way through so why bother. If you want to get scared a bit and worry for our country, just check the following folks out and look into their beliefs. You'll find some of the most radical, racist, communist/socialist people you'd ever want to put a finger on. Just do yourself a favor and look up what you can find on these Czars for yourself, Energy Czar Carol Browner, Diversity Czar Mark Lloyd, Science Czar John Holdren, Regulatory Czar Cass Susstein, Communications Czar Anita Dunn, Senior Adviser Valerie Jarrett and last but not least Chief of Staff Rahm (Rahmbo) Emanuel, and Ex-Green Czar but still hanging around Van Jones. We have a diverse mixture of Socialist, Communist, Mao worshipping, abortion advocating strong arm individuals, look for yourself please.

Retirement...........

We all hope to retire someday, most of us strive to retire at as early an age as possible to live out and fulfil our dreams. For the average middle class wage earner this is becoming increasingly harder to do, to retire at an age where your young enough to still do those things you've dreamed of. I worked for right at 50 years, yes actually was drawing a wage even though it wasn't taxable at the time it was still a wage. I sold garden seeds, flower seeds and all occasion cards door to door at the age of 12 and 13 years old. Living in Iowa then I also mowed lawns and shoveled snow for income, you see growing up in Iowa gave us willing to do so year round work. My folks couldn't afford to buy me the type of jeans I wanted to wear or some of the other things so I earned to buy those things myself. I had a paper route in Sacramento, California and had a supervisor that believed in teaching young men business and how to run one properly. A paper route in Sacramento at the time and under the tutelage of Mr. Vigor was not just throwing a newspaper on someones porch and collecting a few bucks weekly. This was run like a business, learning to use a checking account, incentives for new subscribers and collections made on time and all this with no complaints from customers, I'll never forget Mr. Vigor and all he taught me about business. Anyway to get back on the subject, no matter what you've done for work or how much you earned you most likely still never put enough away for your retirement. You get to a point were you think your close, you think you have it all figured out and any number of things can derail your plans. Like the mess we've been going through as a country the past couple of years, this damaged ecomomy has thrown alot of folks including me and my wife into a tailspin. The future was looking bright, we had what we wanted and could see bright skies off in the distance and then we had the rug pulled out from underneath us! We will figure out a way to survive, we will figure out a way to retire together and still have some fun, and we will do this because we want it. Let me just say, if your still young enough and retirement is still a few years off what ever you do don't forget your retirement account. No matter what your investing into your retirement now is probably not going to be enough, so make it more even if it hurts a bit becasue you'll be glad you did. I hope no one younger that I has to go through with their retirement funds what we've had to endure the past couple of years, but don't let that detour you from building that nest egg because it will be worth it.

social security today.......

Just heard our President has decided to for go the annual cost of living increase for social security recipients and instead give us another "stimulus" check for $250 in 2010. He feels with the economy being negative we won't need it in 2010 but that the meager stimulus check should help get our economy going again! Let's see do I make a credit card payment with my big check or take the kids out for dinner or invest in the dollar (OMG don't do that) or a tank of gas for the RV and say F___ it all and hit the road. Mr. President why don't you keep the $250 to help pay for this monstrosity you call a health care reform bill, I'd rather chip in now than strap my grandchildren with your bullshit full of half truths. Take our $250 behind closed doors with those other crooks and figure out how you can bankrupt our country. By the way no matter what you call it, increases here and increases there to all these medical suppliers, insures, hospitals etc. the bottom line is it's going to be a TAX on middle income folks. Hide it anyway you'd like but in the end those you promised not to screw, your going to screw royally!
