An Illustration of how we are forgetting those WISE WORDS below

Obama wants to give $845 million MORE for "GLOBAL POVERTY". Um.........WHAT???? If you have a strong stomach, read this:

"Sen. Barack Obama, perhaps giving America a preview of priorities he would pursue if elected prsident, is rejoicing over the Senate committee passage of a plan that could end up costing taxpayers billions of dollars in an attempt to reduce poverty in other nations."

If you can eat scotch bonnet peppers, read the whole article. And, remember........

You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.

You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.


WHY can't our Left SEE THAT? WHY? Is it SO important to them that America flounders?

UPDATE: I just watched Hillary glowingly introduce Obama .... Obama said "We want to deliver the AMERICAN DREAM to every corner of this country" He forgot to mention his apparent dream of bringing OUR DREAM to ".. every poor country in the world."

thanks, Priscilla...

Whew !!Which way is he swinging?I thought he was all about change and was going to go after the rich!!!

Its really nice to meet you.I have been taking pictures of Indian food that I cook and not posting it!So keep after me !!!
I have been a sorry Indian cook ever since I came back,I need to stock up on Indian grocerys !No self respecting Indian would ever be caught without chilli powder and my cupboards are bare!

I read on your profile that you were Armenian and one of my most favorite books growing up was the Brides Escape by Donita Dyer.Its about Pearl Kashishian.

Z said...

Yup..American, but Armenian background, through and through.
I've never heard of that book, but I Googled Pearl Kashishian..is she from the Kashishian family of rug dealers here in California? Ring a bell? Thanks, frasypoo. DO that posting now!

Obama is going to make sure nobody does well in this country; OR, better said, they CAN do better, but they can't have the AUDACITY OF HOPING they can KEEP any loose CHANGE! (OR big bills)

Don't forget, liberals think in extremely abstract ways. The only difference is, we think with grey matter. They get stoned first, and THEN try to use the grey matter, so that's why they are so f--ked up.

I am sick of hearing about Obama and his dumb ideas. Yeah, let's give money to people who want us dead. We have too many problems internally before we start going to dole out cash to third worlders.

Steve Harkonnen said...

And let me add something else. Throughout history, I wonder if anyone can name a country we've graciously assisted in the past with food, and have turned around to show their thanks.

NOT ONE SINGLE COUNTRY COMES TO MIND.

Z said...

Germany, France, most of the E. European countries, Israel...there are countries, Steve, we don't much hear about it, that's all.

Germany just celebrated the 60th anniverasry of our air lifts into Berlin. TWO beautiful statues were erected and THOUSANDS came out for those Americans we're told they 'hate'. DO NOT believe The PRAVDA mainstream media here...we hear very little.

you think OBAMA or HILLARY want you to know that Germanys have been begged to buy private health insurance since Schroeder was Chancellor? Yup...but all you hear is "we should have free health care like Germany" Rubbish..They pay FIFTEEN PERCENT TAX ON TOP OF THEIR INCOME tax for free health care and Germany's running out of health care money!

We have to, just HAVE to get some truth out there...I just don't know how. And, if one more person says the "internet", I'll just remind them "Sure, what liberals do you know read the Conservative blogs though? And, if they do, they follow Steve's words ...down to the letter!!

Can you say "change, baby...we need change" while holding YOUR breath in (Smile!)?~!!

Yes folks, we Americans are so magnanimous we will now support the world's poor. Of course we've spent trillions over the last 40 years to help our own less fortunate.

Now, since that monumental failure has taken place, we are going to be required, in concert with the UN, another failed experiment, to fail on a larger scale.

Of course it's only a matter of time, at this rate, that we, as a nation will join those we're supposed to help.

I think what the Global Poverty Act really means is, everyone in the world will be guaranteed equality in poverty. Isn't that special?

Of course this will not include the world's elite. They hold the pursestrings, after all. They get to decide. And they will decide they must remain powerful in order to oversee this new third world existence that we all will share.

It's my understanding it passed the House without members even having researched it themselves. Some it seems are having misgivings! Really? Ya think?

Obama is a co-sponsor of this legislation. Evidently this is what he means by CHANGE!

God help us all.

Tucked into this monumentally stupid bill is the UN Millenium
Summit goals which the US would have to comply with. Guess what they want to do with our firearms?

BTW I didn't know you were of Armenian descent. I make a mean kibbee, awesome fatayeds, stuffed grape leaves to kill for. My spelling might be off, but my family thinks the taste is on target.

If Hillary introduced Obama saying this stuff, then I say she just did us all a big favor..let the cat out of the bag, with Obama's plans for all of us, and how we are to be used.

So, Obama wants to shell out from my pockets to help the world.

Excuse me, but I'm already paying rape rates for health insurance.

This afternoon, I caught some of the Obama-Hillary spectacle. Enough to turn one's stomach.

Z said...

Cube! I don't know 'fatayed' by that name..tell me! I make a MEAN hummus and lahmajoon (Armenian pizza~!) I'd love to send you that recipe, it's SO easy and delicious!

Well, we have been living through a war on poverty for how long now?
Now, I guess Obama wants a global war on poverty.

The money that idiot wants to take away from us, to give to the rest of the world, just makes me want to spit.

This is great news, Z. But I wonder, couldn’t we purchase the entire continent of Africa for a lot less money? Oh, my use of Africa as an analogy wasn’t a Freudian slip . . . where else could African Obama be talking about? Has anyone (besides me) noted that with more than half of the African people professing a belief in Islam, the oil sheiks are contributing essentially nothing to improve their lot? Beyond that, have the socialists in Congress forgotten that the Executive Branch is separate and equal to the other two? I’m only asking because, according to the World Net Daily article, “Specifically, it would ‘declare’ that the official U.S. policy is to eliminate global poverty, that the president is ‘required’ to ‘develop and implement’ a strategy to reach that goal and requires that the U.S. efforts be ‘specific and measurable.’" I hope the president has the ‘nads to veto such a stupid bill.

Z said...

Mustang! Exactly. That is what I've been saying about Palestinians, too! They're all muslims..are their rich Saudi muslim helping THEM except to encourage them to get their kids killed thru killing Israelis? All the Saudis would have to do is give money to that region and they, too, could have a prospering society IF (IF!) that really WERE the end desire. Of course, we know it's just killing Jews that's the real desire.

Sure...you'd THINK Saudi muslim fat cats would help their muslim cohorts in Africa, too, WOULDN'T you? But........

What do you want to bet they talk Obama into doing that WITH OUR MONEY? The Saudis got RICH with OUR MONEY................grrrr!!!

When will people learn that without the rich there is no middle class?

Z said...

Papa..NEVER. Excellent point..WHAT are they thinking?

MathewK said...

"You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich."

Ah but you have to think about it like a leftist, for them everything is hinged on the whether it makes you feel good temporarily, if it does then it must be good, bugger the long term pain.

So envy makes the poor feel good for a short while when they see the rich getting a kick to the guts.

"Is it SO important to them that America flounders?"

Yes it is, that is like the ultimate feel good moment. America is like the thorn in their socialist sides that won't stop hurtin'. Their socialist dreams have failed everywhere else, while capitalist America is number one.

Laziness, getting something for nothing is the driving force behind socialism.

Dr. John,

I loved your succinct way of sizing up the situation:

Tax the rich,
Feed the poor,
Till there are
No, rich no more.

You could also say

Sever first
The wings and legs,
Then kill the goose
That lays gold eggs.

FreeThinker: Thanks for the compliment, but those words are from a song by Ten Years After called "I'd Love to Change the World." Listen to any classic rock station long enough and you are bound to hear it.

Well, Dr. John, Noel Coward once said, "Any fool can think up something bright and clever, but it takes a really smart person to remember these clever things and use them at appropriate times."

Cheers!
