Dear [recipient name was inserted here],

Dear PUBLIC SERVANT,

I am outraged that the House passed H.R. 2454, the Waxman-Markey
cap-and-trade tax. This bill will impose enormous economic costs,
destroying millions of jobs and forcing the prices of gasoline and
electricity to, in the words of the president, “skyrocket.” There are also
hundreds of pork-barrel provisions that were added to buy votes or
campaign donations as the bill ballooned to over 1,500 pages. Nobody has
read this bill.

You should strongly oppose Waxman-Markey and any similar cap-and-trade
legislation and sign the NoClimateTax.com pledge.

Of course that takes common sense and guts so I am not encouraged by the
dufus secular socialist clowns that make up the majority now.

Watching,

JULY 2.2009
Last Friday the House passed this cap-and-tax bill.

So now we have this 1,200 page long bill with a last-minute 300 page amendment filled with sweeteners and “place holders” … and no one really knows what’s in it. But it passed.

Almost a week later, we are coming to find more details on what exactly is in the darn thing. This is where you homeowners need to pay attention.

The plan is called REEP — Retrofit for Energy and Environmental Performance. If you sell your house, you will be required before to sell it to retrofit your home to meet any federal green guidelines drawn up by some government hacks. It says, “The Administrator shall develop and implement, in consultation with the Secretary of Energy, standards for a national energy and environmental building retrofit policy for single-family and multi-family residences … The purpose of the REEP program is to facilitate the retrofitting of existing buildings across the United States.” Details? That’s for the EPA to decide. Payment? Well that is up to the states to fund, and ultimately passed on to the taxpayers. Just another unfunded federal mandate.

The bottom line is that you put your home on the market, and as part of the closing process, you will have to cough up some sort of certificate to say that your home is compliant with green guidelines as promulgated by the federal Department of Energy. For example, does your home have roofing materials that reflect solar energy? That will be a requirement if you want to sell your home under green guidelines. That means that you as a homeowner will have to put a new roof on your home before you can sell it, and not just a new roof but one that reflects solar rays. How much does a new roof cost nowadays? Maybe $9,000 or $10,000. Yeah, and that’s just one of the mandates. The government is going to test air quality around your home, take infrared readings of your house. How much is all of this compliance going to cost you when you try to sell your home?

According to figures from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, “If we were to retrofit 3 million homes over the next decade, we would only consume 10 days less petroleum (.27% less). If we were to retrofit 10 times as many homes, 30 million, (which is almost certainly not possible to do in 10 years), we would save just 100 days of oil over a 10 year period (2.7% less).”

You let Barack Obama and the global warming nutcases out there get this cap-and-trade bill and you can bet that you will be paying out the nose as a homeowner.

CRAWFISH NOTE: Do not get upset…democrats are doing what they do best…making your life more complicated and expensive as they grow the gov-meant control over everything in your life…womb to da tomb!

Remember when 5% under Bush was hammered as so very awful?
Vanguard Founder Warns of Stock Woes Ahead…

CRAWFISH NOTE: Keep in mind the arrogant secular socialists never see the light, never respect economic laws, never learn from history (J. Carter), never cease promising, never promote business, never cut taxes, never cut gov-meant waste (78,000 new gov-meant jobs for 2009 so far), never can manage an economy without great harm.

Happy Independence Day from the J. Carter Obama democrat administration and its clueless socialist hacks in congress.

Now go look at that 401k statement just one more time before you start grilling. Did I mention the “tax you more” phase is next?

How is that “hope and change” working for ya?
The Dufus has only begun to trash America so stay tuned.

But hey, Dufus is historic…go pay your bills or get a job with a bucket of “historic”.
When are voters going to learn that secular socialism is never the answer?

Reply 9 - Posted by: Mr. Know-It-All, 6/30/2009 4:53:15 PM (No. 5645487) lucianne.com FRANKEN ELECTION

The socialists continue to successfully steal elections in broad daylight through voter fraud, intimidation, rigged recounts, and “news” media collaboration.

Zero practically ignores pro-democracy movements and protests in Iran and the middle east, but calls the reinstatement of a Chavez dictator wannabe in Honduras who was openly defying his constitution, legislature, and courts.

And the left in this country wonders why there are runs on guns and ammo.

Reply 6 - Posted by: Hazymac, 6/30/2009 4:38:31 PM (No. 5645446) lucianne.com

After the 2004 Washington state gubernatorial election in which Christine Gregoire was “elected” after three recounts after being behind in the first two (before “discovered” ballots in King County), Franken is the next prominent Democrat to lose the first two recounts and get elected on subsequent recounts in which votes were “found” (or counted under different rules in different counties).
Franken flat out stole this one, and the Republicans were either too outnumbered or without huevos to do what W did in 2000, which was to prevent the mentally ill Al Gore from stealing the presidential election. We’re near a needed revolution now. Why doesn’t Al Franken just go out, hoover a kilo, and vapor lock? I know that’s what he likes.

July 1.2009…from realclearpolitics…with the VIDEO:
(also here http://www.breitbart.tv/white-house-reporters-grill-gibbs-over-selected-questions-for-obama/)
CBS’ Chip Reid and Helen Thomas double teamed Robert Gibbs today at the daily press briefing on the “tightly controlled” town hall meeting President Obama will hold on health care. Gibbs kept saying lets have this discussion AFTER the meeting.

(ultra liberal democrat fossil) Helen Thomas accused the White House of “controlling the press.” She said almost all White House/Obama events are “prepackaged.” She accused the White House of not “having any answers.” SHE EVEN STATED THE OBAMA ADMIN WAS MORE CONTROLLING THAN THE NIXON ADMIN!!! Catching on to the insecure Dufus, Helen? In only 6 months…my-o-my.

CRAWFISH NOTE: Fan me, look outside for the mother ship…look for JC on a cloud..the biased secular socialist media actually NOTICED that the Obama admin is led by a lying arrogant jerk who hates real freedom of inquiry!
This is historic…the network fawners actually speaking up for freedom of the press against gov-meant lies-secrecy-info control freaks in the White House now.

How will this be minimized? Spun? Stay tuned…truth and honesty in very short supply these D.C. days. My-o-my…July starts with a bang.

On Saturday, July 4th, be part of the Taxed Enough Already (TEA) party rally in your community.
2009 budget grows to a deficit of $1.8 trillion, more than four times higher than last year’s all time high and 50% of total budget

With the national debt already out of control, President Obama has added 78,000 new government jobs to the federal payroll since he took office. Obama’s increase in the number of government employees will add hundreds of millions of dollars to our debt. If history is any measure, these jobs will never be eliminated. They will simply add to the mountains of debt we are leaving our grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Government spending is filled with pork earmarks like this: The National Institutes of Health will pay $2.6 million in U.S. tax dollars to train Chinese prostitutes to drink responsibly on the job.

Obama and Congress continue to spend money the government doesn’t have. The deficit for the current year will be $1.8 trillion, 50% of the total budget. In order to pay interest on the debt, the government will have to cut spending, raise taxes, print more paper money or borrow from another country like China, which already holds billions of U.S. debt. With no end of spending in sight, some estimates project that our national debt could reach $8 trillion by the year 2014.

Obama and liberals in Congress are taking us down the road to socialism, seizing control of key banks, insurance companies, the automobile industry, etc. They are currently working on a government funded national health care program which is expected to cost roughly $2 trillion while rationing services.

Are you fed up with a Congress and a president who?

* vote for a $500 billion tax bill without even reading it?
* are spending trillions of borrowed dollars, leaving a debt our great-grandchildren will be paying?
* consistently give special interest groups billions of dollars in earmarks to help get themselves re-elected?
* want to take your wealth and redistribute it to others?
* punish those who practice responsible financial behavior and reward those who do not?
* admit to using the financial hurt of millions as an opportunity to push their political agenda?
* run up trillions of dollars of debt and then sell that debt to countries such as China?
* want government controlled health care?
* want to take away the right to vote with a secret ballot in union elections?
* refuse to stop the flow of millions of illegal immigrants into our country?
* appoint a defender of child pornography to the Number 2 position in the Justice Department?
* want to force doctors and other medical workers to perform abortions against their will?
* want to impose a carbon tax on your electricity, gas and home heating fuels?
* want to reduce your tax deductibility for charitable gifts?
* take money from your family budget to pay for their federal budget?

=====
CRAWISH NOTE: And the kook lib media keeps pretending none of this fiscal insanity matters to YOUR wallet.
Prepare accordingly. The secular soclalists (democrats) do what they do…its genetic with them…lots more ahead too.

Who said just because about 3% of elected GOPers fail that morals do not matter?
Who said never speak up for morals because you might fail?
Who said Churches were only for non-sinners?
Who said democrats are secular socialists (I did that one)?

We have divorce so never defend marriage? We have fornication so never speak of purity?
The secular modern liberals are so pathetic…they have no ethics or morality so they think that gives them a pass to hammer anyone who has if they fail.

The Party of serial adulterers JFK and WJC (presidents!) always has time to attack so as to avoid ever telling America why their secular socialism is superior. They never ever defend their religion of secular socialism with logic or common sense. We are not fooled.

The GOP guys pay and pay for their moral lapses while the democrats are held to no standard at all…we expect no ethics or morals from democrats…why should we? Morals are inferior to power for the angry secular socialist control freaks. The record is clear.

Sit down and shut up. You have no right to comment on morality. The secular get no seat at the table. The moral have always policed and penalized their own. The record is clear there also. Since when has the Party of abortion and homo-marriage had any moral credence?

Hey libs, stay in your secular cage. That is where morality-free angry creatures belong.

Bankers: Greenspan to Blame for Credit Crisis
Roubini: Recession for Another Nine Months…
CBO Report: U.S. Deficit to Balloon
Rogers: Dollar on Shaky Ground
Drudge: Consumer confidence suffers steep fall…’Unexpected’…Stocks Slump as Quarter Ends…

Will CNN apologize this Thanksgiving when there is no recovery in sight?
What will CNN do after the democrat tax bills passed this summer get voter awareness?
Will CNN start a Misery Index for J. Carter Obama or keep lying-spinning-covering for this administration?
Stay tuned…
