GOP Hits “Reject” On Obama Stimulus

Barack Obama’s most troubling radical association may be his friendship and political and financial alliance with Rashid Khalidi,

described by the New York Times and more reliable sources as a former spokesman for the Palestinian Liberation Organization, whose Black September arm carried out the 1972 murders at the Munich Olympics, the murder of American Ambassador to Sudan Cleo Noel, and other terrorist acts. (Khalidi denies having been an “employee” of the PLO.) Fox News did an extended piece on Obama’s relationship with Khalidi; here is part of it, in an article entitled, Worse than Ayers and Wright

Artist Scott Donahue of Emeryville, Calif., was paid $196,000 by Berkeley’s public arts program to create two large statues, which feature small, artistic medallions that show dogs doing what dogs do best.

“Various things,” Donahue said. “Biting each other, chasing each other…. One dog is defecating, two dogs are fornicating.”

But with the country in a deep recession and California on the verge of bankruptcy, some taxpayers are questioning the money Donahue got for his work. His total budget was $196,000 — 1.5 percent of the total budget for building the pedestrian bridge. And all of it came from taxpayers

It’s the type of thing that could contribute to a taxpayer revolt, not unlike the kind, perhaps, that started the original American Revolution….that’s right, remember, this country was founded on No Taxation Without Representation….and right now, I know we’re being taxed, but when you see this kind of dog vomit being funded, not too sure who’s representing us.

Keep your eyes and ears open America.  This is taxation without representation. We rose up against that once before and we may have to do it again.

There’s no place to begin with my Favre Farewell, other than at the beginning. I was a Packer fan back when it all started. Growing up in Wisconsin my dad put a helmet on me when I was 3, and started showing me how to explode off the ball.

So when 1992 rolled around, that was something like forty years into my history of awareness with the Pack. I had seen Lombardi on the sidelines in his long tan overcoat and horn-rimmed glasses, I had seen him standing there in person, in Milwaukee back when they still played there….and remember Paul Hornung wowing the crowd with his pre game field goal warm-ups which sailed 50 plus yards through the uprights.

Hornung was the golden boy and those were the golden years when World Champion seemed to be part of the Packer name, as you almost never heard them referred to as anything but The World Championion Green Bay Packers.  But from the old dark frozen tundra Glory Years mess of muck, snow, bitter winds, overcast skies, from that point us Packer fans took a pretty severe beating….up until 1992.

Lombardi left the Ice Bowl frozen in our memories, and then a long succession of successors failed to succeed. If the Ice Bowl was the high point to that point, of having been a Packer Fan, the low point was when the fans in Green Bay drove over to head coach Dan Devine’s house in the 70s, and shot his dog, or maybe the low point was when Bart Starr took over the helm and got every one’s hopes up, and then that failed as well…with Lynn Dickey at QB.

But we somehow got to 1992, after thirty odd years of having hopes raised and trashed, with the glorious last four seconds of the Ice Bowl still frozen in our memories, along with the sunny victories at the very first two Super Bowls.  That’s what we’d been living on for so long.

Suddenly, in ’92 though, there was this Holmgren guy, a big burly bear of a non stop motivational persona who had been instrumental in the success of Joe Montana, Steve Young, Jerry Rice and so on, as the offensive co-ordinator in San Fran. He’d picked up a very young QB from the Falcons, a guy with a weird last name, a strange propensity for ‘happy feet’ you know where you stutter step indecisively in the pocket, and before I grew to love Brett I hated him, because at first, aside from the happy feet, he had a tremendous talent for cocking his arm to throw and dropping the ball behind him, getting tackled in his own end zone, or both.

But Holmgren embraced the boy’s wild enthusiasm for the game and became exactly the guru from the intellectual side of quarterbacking that he needed.  Soon, the chemistry of raw talent, wild enthusiasm, an arm that could dislocate the thumbs and fingers of wide receivers with passes that spiralled with smoke, all combined with the best QB mind of all time and exploded again and again into more and more touchdown celebrations.  Which gave way to the Lambeau Leap and then suddenly, a season in ’96 when more great stuff came together on one football team than has ever been assembled or will be assembled again.

Reggie White threw offensive linemen around like rag dolls, Desmond Howard ran punts and kickoffs back like their was no one else on the field with him, The Gravedigger dug a hole in the middle that offenses couldn’t climb out of, Don Bebe ran like the fastest white human that ever lived, Leroy Butler a free safety with deformed legs started blitzing like a man possessed, and of course there was Brett…no more happy feet now, but instead the gunslinging MVP that completed passes from everywhere to everyone…overhanded, side-armed, underhanded…to Sharp, to Bebe, to Chmura, to Brooks…he threw giant long bombs that arced in glorious perfection to land in the hands of fully striding WRs who simply extended arms and sailed into the end zone…short dump off passes, bullets that had to be dug out of the turf, screens, deep posts, corners, square ins….in some odd twist Favre, Holmgren and the team from the frozen tundra had heated up the West Coast offense to defense-incinerating temperatures.

The Super Bowl that year, number 31, was just one more glorious explosion of all that talent, enthusiasm and camaraderie, and the Packers under Holgrem with Favre and all those other guys too numerous to mention…..just kept celebrating touchdowns until, at the end, the sparkling shower from the confetti canons seemed more exciting and appropriate than it ever had been or would be again….carrying as it did a 30 year long held Big Bang of hopes and dreams for Packer Fans everywhere, all summed up in the wild burst of unbridled energy that always overtook Favre when the Packers scored.

Of course the career went on from the incredible number of uninterrupted starts and touchdown passes, records no one will ever touch, to the night he threw six TDs under the bright, hazy smokey lights on Monday Night while still reeling and in shock, and half the time with tears in his eyes, only a day or two after his dad died, the man who gave him his love for the game.

So that’s it for now.  Adios, man.  And thanks….is almost all I can say right now…except for this;

It might not be over yet, at least not in my imagination, because there, in that special football place on a beautiful sunny fall day, on the opening game of the season, you wind up back on the field in Green Bay, not wearing number 4, but dressed however you would as head coach. You won’t be exactly like any head coach anyone has ever seen before, you’ll be unshaven probably, maybe even wearing blue jeans if that doesn’t piss too many front office people off, but then again, if it does, so what, you’re the coach, right? The play calling might be a bit wilder than normal, but one thing the team, fans and everyone around you will have, is enthusiasm…because you bring that in a contagious way everywhere you go.

And then, the thing that will really set you apart as a head coach, will be what happens when the Pack scores…and you rip your headset off and run out onto the field signalling touchdown, like some wild out of control ref, with both hands raised straight up. Touchdown, Man!  Green Bay!  Yeah!

At the Rubber Stamp Champ we honor extraordinary effort.  We think it demonstrates what everyone pays lip service to but almost no one really takes advantage of, the fact that we humans are capable of achieving anything we really put our hearts and souls into, and in the process we can overcome even immense obstacles and difficulties

Muhammad Ali had a secret, but it wasn’t really a secret because he blasted off and blabbed about it to anyone and everyone who would listen…fans, crowds, media, Cosell, it was a part of Ali that never ended…the constant unveiling of his secrets as a form of communicating to people, who did not take the information as secret information to be treasured and learned from, but rather they thought it was funny, part of the entertainment, Ali The Showman they called him.

What Ali told us was a two part secret. The whole thing was about playing with gravity, which Ali and virtually all other gifted athletes have the innate ability to do.  In fact, the ability to play with, or manipulate gravity is virtually synonymous with the words athletically gifted.  Believe me, if you’re going to stand there, for example in golf and in the wink of an eye and the space of a phone booth take a long metal shaft with a knob on the end and propel a hard white object 350 down the middle, and then do that repeatedly and with enormous accuracy with a whole bunch of other-sized sticks and knobs, well you know how to play with gravity…and indeed you would also be a gifted athlete…like Jack Nicklaus, let’s say, a guy so good at manipulating gravity, and so well known for it, all you have to do to find information about him is Google something like Jack’s Record Book…and it comes up.

So the two part secret he was telling us, about his ability to play with gravity, goes kind of like this;  He could levitate, to some small degree, and that was the Float Like A Butterfly part.  Now back when Ali was saying that all the time, Float Like A Butterfly, Sting Like A Bee…most people thought the Float Like A Butterfly part, if they thought about any of it at all, meant his ability to stay away from an opponent.

It really meant his ability to levitate, which in and of itself would be meaningless, but the whole secret to Ali was that a brief levitation was followed by a straight right hand with incredibly devastating power. Real power in athletics, like Reggie White’s ability to hit home runs….comes not from static energy but from a transference of energy.  This is the playing with gravity part.  Again, in golf, watch the pro swing closely.  All the pros are physically gifted enough to take advantage of a moment of truth, when gravity is briefly suspended, and a blow with double or triple ordinary force can be obtained off the energy transference. 

In other words, if you look closely, all pros make their forward swing just a split second before their back swing is finished. In other words they time it so their shoulders, arms, hands and club are still moving a tad bit back while they’ve already started their hips turning forward. This is what the word torque means, and it’s the place where all gifted athletes get their magical power.

Ali told us that is one quick sentence, “Float Like a Butterfly, Sting Like A Bee.”  It’s just that no one was really paying that much attention.

Werner von Braun is no longer the household name he was back when he developed the first rcoket, the V-2 in Germany during the Second World War and then came to the United States after defecting from his homeland, and here was instrumental in helping us develop from scratch, the atom bomb

Back when everyone knew who he was though, he said this, “The more I learn about science, the more I believe in the existence of God.”.

For von Braun, science exposed the vast, absurdly complex interrelatedness, interconnectedness and interdependence of all things in the universe.  He saw how an astonishing number of complex systems had almost unbelievably been balanced, tuned and blended , not to mention created, in a way that would ensure that something extraordinarily vast and complex would work, stay together and function in a largely predictable manner.  Not only that, but this vast and complex system called the universe was mirrored and virtually duplicated in every living thing.

This is what DNA shows us too, that the atheists don’t understand.  Every single one of us is completely and 100% different than every other individual that’s ever been or will be born.  We are like snowflakes that way, each one entirely different from the other.  We all work with exactly the same basics, but within that framework the beautiful individuality dictated deep with in us is a programed part of life.

Werner von Braun, the more he learned about how it all worked, the more he believed it couldn’t possibly have been created by some offbeat accident.  No, it was the intentional work of vastly intellegent and loving God.

Everyone knows, of course, that Lombardi brought 5 titles to Green Bay including the victories in the fisrt two superbowls and that was how Green Bay wound up being America’s Team and got the nickname Titletown USA.  For any person, having that much success in the exceedingly demanding NFL, is definetly a Claim To Fame….but with Lombardi of course it doesn’t stop there.

The list of accomplishments are a mile long and documented well beyond any description I could provide you here, and if you’re really interested in all that the guy did, you can check a few things out.

But why is his name on the Super Bowl trophy?  Just a week after his death, the NFL’s Super Bowl trophy was renamed the Vince Lombardi Trophy in his honor, first awarded after Super Bowl V. Lombardi was enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame at its next induction ceremony in 1971.  So why did they put his name on it, apart from the fact that they did it to honor his stellar career?  In my humble opinion they put his name on it to honor his attitude.  Which, put simply, was that pretty much anyone can do one hell of a lot more than they think they can if they start believing in themselves.

He demonstrated this principal by taking a bunch of not-that-huge, not-that-talented and not-that-gifted physically football players and turned them into a team of world beaters no one will ever forget…how? By getting them to believe in themselves at a much higher level than they had before they met The Coach.  That’s another Claim To Fame of his right there by the way….in certain circles….especially inside the arctic one surrounding Wisconsin, and again also in the inner halls of the inner game of football, where only those who have played convene, everyone knows if you simply say the words, The Coach…it means Vince Lombardi.

So yeah, his name is on that trophy.  And that’s why it’s there.  He took people and showed them how to drive themselves to heights they’d never dreamt of…Reggie White got a hold of that power….and that’s why he’s got that trophy, with The Coach’s name on it, held so proudly and so high.

At Rubber Stamp Champ, we’re going out of our way to achieve at a hgher level as well.   Because if you really need rubber stamps….epecially custom made rubber stamps, customized self inking rubber stamps, custom ink stamps, address stamps, return address stamps, pre inked stamps,

Awhile back there was a pretty good TV commercial during which the spokesperson stated gruffly, convincingly, and in a way that made him seem completely intolerant of stupidity, as he looked over his glasses, shook his head emphatically and stated in his stentorian voice…“We make money the old fashioned way, we earn it.”

This statement delivered with such hearty intolerance for wimpy sentiments, may or may not have been entirely true of the company represented, but at one point in time, a long time ago, it was entirely and 100% true of The United States of America.  Of course the very early sentiments of America were even more hard core than that, and were stated quite clearly by the county’s earliest flag.

These non-wimpy positions characterize quite well how America started, grew, survived and prospered as a nation. Almost none of the impetus that propelled us from a prairie state to the largest super power on earth was borrowed.  There was no phony paper, speculation or needing a bank loan to make payroll when the people and the companies that made this country great made it great.  

Bailout, at the time when the American economy was the roaring blast furnace of production that was the envy of every other civilized nation on earth, bailout out that point in time was something you did to a sinking boat on a weekend fishing trip.  It was not a new method of government by which the blind and the broke attempt to help the blind and the broke with corrupt new ideas on how to get by without producing anything at all substantial or meaningful.  

So now, our nation’s motto…instead of Don’t Tread On Me, or We Make Money The Old Fashioned Way, We Earn it…now the motto has become something like…Have You Got Any Spare Change I’m Trying To Get Enough For A Bus Ride To See My Sick Mom?  

Super.  Can You Lend Me A Couple Hundred Trillion…I’m Good For It, Really. Those are today’s mottos. And guess what. If you think they are going to lead us to anything like the kind of success hard work and making things leads to, you’re stupid.  And here’s a second opinion, you’re crazy too.

The American economy that was strong and the envy of the world was based on creative individuals who were able to take raw materials and turn them into products people wanted and could use and were thereby willing to pay for at a price, that would provide profits for the makers and sellers of the stuff, so they would have enough money to keep making it and selling it.  That is how jobs are created.  Not by Barrack Obama sending people $500.  That’s a crack party, not an economy. The United States can only return to prosperity and prominence by making it’s way there…and making it’s way there at a profit.  

At Rubber Stamp Champ, we’re proud to still be making things, and we’re proud of the fact also that for us, making and selling has indeed turned into job creation, customer satisfaction and a small portion of economic progress forward for the United States.  We challenge the government to get out of the business of giving people money, and get back in the business of inspiring folks to greater heights of entrepreneurial productivity.

Rubber Stamp Champ makes hundreds of stamp orders and thousands of stamps everyday for people who want and need self inking stamps, self inking rubber stamps, hand stamps, pre inked rubber stamps, Ideal rubber stamps, Xstamper premium pre inked stamps, Trodat self inking stamps, daters, address stamps, specialty inks and more.  Go online, and place your order today with our easy-to-use and completely secure stamp design/ordering website.  Thanks.  

And if you need money, think of a creative way to make something and sell it to people who want and need it, or provide a service, or get some experience busting rocks in the hot sun, anything legitimate to make money…it’s much more the American Way than begging for a handout.
