More Stupid Money in Housing

And then there is the Reverse Mortgage; a stupid government insured program that guarantees the lender against default when it is time to repay the loan accumulated over the years by drawing down on the approved amount, plus the interest earned. If the Reverse Mortgage Program was such a good idea why would the government need to guarantee the loans, if it is a good financial business practice the banks and other lenders would not need the government to back them up they would have put the loans in place ahead of any government mandated program. And then you have retired Senator shilling for the lenders, seem like the Senator should not be shilling since he probably voted to authorize the program before he retired.

Memorial Day - 2013

Memorial Day is for many of us a day to remember and salute the armed forces who fell on the battlefields of our wars. Some choose to use the day to memorialize their veteran family service members who came home for war, lived their lives, raised their families and passed away, for them I guess it is alright to make that tribute on Memorial Day. For me I honor my deceased father and uncles who served in the during WWII, came home and lived this life to the fullest; for them I honor them on Veteran's Day each year. For me Memorial Day is for those who fell on the battlefields around the world and may or may not have returned home to be buried in the cemeteries across our great nation; to all of them I salute you on Memorial Day.
Who determines "income inequality"? Is it not our freedom to choose where we work or what we do based on his or her ability to provide for themselves and their families? My guess is the Progressives of our government long ago decided to adjust our standard of living by the definition on what everyone should earn and thereafter introduced legislation to alter our standard of living equation to fit their Progressive Agenda Ideals and thereby legislatively adjusted the standard by which all should thrive and manipulate the real standard of living for everyone. Once the government enters the market place at any level all else fails. So I ask what has government done for you today?

The Pressing Need for a Special Prosecutor

Congress has no b--ls, they are so corrupt that they are afraid of the administration and the hatchet men. They will find some way, in their flawed minds, to skip the process at every level. I have no confidence in this legislative body; it must be very frustrating for those few true constitutionalist now in congress who do not have any support from their Progressive Republican counter parts in each house. Absolutely an abject failure for both houses of congress.

Bad Faith and Benghazi

Why was this embassy even there, let alone the annex? What happen was a tragedy and Obama and Clinton are responsible to fulfiling the duties and oaths of office in this event, and people died. But what did they die for? Rumors are out there, and yet not one question raised in the hearings about the US sanctioned and supported gun running from Lybia to Turkey to Syria to arm the rebels. It is my understanding the Stevens was very good at this type of operation given his background and experience in various government agencies. He was too young to be part of Charley Wilson's War but not too young learn from that operation in Afganistan years ago. The United States Congress is complicit in all of this for not doing their jobs as they were elected to do, oversight and control of rogue missions.
So Marco what are you and your fellow senators, with a small S, going to do about it? Righting and speaking more about it is not getting it done, action speak volumes but I see no volumes coming out of the Senate in recent years. Instead of writing articles why not write legislation to correct the insaneness of Washington. No guts no glory for the campaign trail.
If you don't have a job how can you buy a house?
With CPUSA in control of our government and congress the House will fail in any impeachment attempt regardless of what the hearings produce. Cynical, yes! Congressional members have so much dirty linen in each members closet that they dare not rise up against the mighty "O" and his Chicago mob.
Obama can't even pass Everify!
One homosexual to another looking to support the movement, now all the is Rhams endorsement.

Are Online Sales Taxes Only Fair?

In the beginning there were not sales taxes, then the government got involved and the freedon to do business unrestricted was doomed. The Tenth Amendment took care of that issue and has ever since been expanded beyond it original intent many time over. Our corrupt federal government just can't stop meddling in private business matters.
