The American Revolution came about because of circumstances that are very similar to the ones we are in now. The battle flared and we won our Independence from Great Britain, not because we were sick of paying the high taxes they levied on us, that was true enough…but the real crux of the conflict was summed up in the war cry of the times, from the colonists, when they insisted on No Taxation Without Representation.

The Original Americans were ok with being taxed, they just weren’t ok with being taxed by a government that really didn’t give them a voice…didn’t allow them to have representation and decision making in what was being done with these taxes.

Sound familiar?

Are you represented by the following items in the so called Obama stimulus package?  He’s calling it a stimulus package, but if you look at this list you can see it’s really taxation without representation….because I don’t know about you, but none of this stuff represents my interests…nor do I think it represents the interests of helping an economy recover:

• $75 million for “smoking cessation activities.”

• $200 million for public computer centers at community colleges.

• $75 million for salaries of employees at the FBI.

• $25 million for tribal alcohol and substance abuse reduction.

• $500 million for flood reduction projects on the Mississippi River.

• $10 million to inspect canals in urban areas.

• $6 billion to turn federal buildings into “green” buildings.

• $500 million for state and local fire stations.

• $650 million for wildland fire management on forest service lands.

• $1.2 billion for “youth activities,” including youth summer job programs.

• $88 million for renovating the headquarters of the Public Health Service.

• $412 million for CDC buildings and property.

• $500 million for building and repairing National Institutes of Health facilities in Bethesda, Maryland.

• $160 million for “paid volunteers” at the Corporation for National and Community Service.

• $5.5 million for “energy efficiency initiatives” at the Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration.

• $850 million for Amtrak.

• $100 million for reducing the hazard of lead-based paint.

• $75 million to construct a “security training” facility for State Department Security officers when they can be trained at existing facilities of other agencies.

• $110 million to the Farm Service Agency to upgrade computer systems.

• $200 million in funding for the lease of alternative energy vehicles for use on military installations.
$1 billion for the 2010 Census, which has a projected cost overrun of $3 billion.
$600 million to buy hybrid vehicles for federal employees.

• $400 million for the Centers for Disease Control to screen and prevent STD’s.

• $1.4 billion for rural waste disposal programs.

• $2 billion earmark to re-start FutureGen, a near-zero emissions coal power plant in Illinois that the Department of Energy defunded last year because it said the project was inefficient.

• A $246 million tax break for Hollywood movie producers to buy motion picture film.

• $650 million for the digital television converter box coupon program.

• $88 million for the Coast Guard to design a new polar icebreaker (arctic ship).

• $448 million for constructing the Department of Homeland Security headquarters.

• $248 million for furniture at the new Homeland Security headquarters.

Do you feel represented by anything on the above list?  Do you think anything on the above list will stimulate the economy?  If not, you have to start questioning what’s going on in The New White House. It’s your right to do so, and we encourage you to exercise your rights now, so they won’t be so easily swept away buy the new wave of socialism the Obama Administration brings.

Are you surprised that the change Barack Obama brought to the White House wasn’t the change he led us to believe was coming?  In the first place, he sure didn’t give any indication he was going to change into Nancy Pelosi.  Well, maybe he didn’t really change into her, he just become her spokesperson.  Now he’s out and there and he’s still on the campaign trail, only now he’s really obviously trying to sell us a bill of goods.

After just a few days of exposure, this so called stimulus package turns out to be the Nancy Pelosi left wing wish list that she was so frustrated at not having been able to push through the Bush Administration.  That’s what all the left wing hate for Bush was all about, and that’s why they needed joy-boy in there so Pelosi and .org would have someone they could push around and who might even be pushed to the point that they could use him as a lackey for their agenda.  Well surprise. That’s exactly what happened.

The lunatics are in charge of the asylum, only the asylum in this case is the United States of America. The really infuriating part is that the economy and the people of the country are really truly suffering, and this package is being touted as a way to end that suffering, even though it absolutely is no such thing…but rather a fat, bloated, out of control orgasm of special interest bullshit.  Hopefully the real people of the Senate like Lindsay Graham can derail this horrible disfiguration of the United States and save our entire standing as a capitalist nation rather than allowing the home of the brave to morph into a socialistic welfare state.

And just to let you know….if you ever need rubber stamps, and you order from the Rubber Stamp Champ, we guarantee that there won’t be any unpleasant surprises coming your way such as the one just briefly illustrated above.

Everyone in the media and elsewhere too, I’m sure, is going to be wagging their tongues and lamenting the fact that Michael Phelps, the new Olympic Torch since having been photographed blowing grass in London, is not living up to his role as role model.  I mean some people will argue that he shouldn’t have to be a role model, and others will argue that he should.  Some will say ‘he blew a little pot, so what, doesn’t just about everyone these days?’  And others will say ‘wait a minute there are little children all over God’s creation looking up to this guy and now look what he’s doing.’

So it’s all going to be about Michael’s image, and there will be precious little, if any, discussion about Michael himself.  

This is where the media, and by reflection of the media, society itself, shows itself to be false in it’s attempt to seem righteous.  So, if you’re shaking your head and wondering, when you hear the Phelps story, about whatever happened to our youth, or if you’re on the other side of the coin saying hey, even Governor Schwartzengger did it, don’t you remember, in the weight lifting movie Pumping Iron?  And he was a role model, a six time Mr. Universe winner.  And besides, as Bob Beckle said on television last night, he imagines just about every player in the NFL, or quite a few of them anyway have smoked pot…and don’t even stop there, look at how acceptable drug taking has become…look at Obama…he did coke and now he’s the President.  So let Phelps be.

That’s the argument that’s out there…the argument that’s going on out there, and as is so typical, the argument going on out there doesn’t really get at the key issue.  Which is actually quite simple.  Mr. Phelps should find out if he has a propensity for addiction in his personality, so that, if he is going to abuse substances he can be extremely careful not to ruin his life by so doing.  I say this not just because of the pot blowing shot but because it also brings up the DUI charge he got. And there’s more.

Let’s just say for him it might be wise to get checked out psychologically and see what kind of a propensity he has for addiction. It could be quite large.  How would I know?  Common sense.  It goes with the territory.  It no secret that highly motivated, highly driven, highly talented and highly charismatic often go with highly self destructive, not always, but there are a thousand examples and they are always a sad waste.  Just start with John Belushi and Elvis Presley and go from there.  

So my point isn’t based on, should he do what he’s doing or not based on how it will affect those who hold him in high regard, but based instead on how it will affect himself.  No moral judgements either. Not saying it will be good or bad for him if he continues.  Just recognizing, hey, this guy busted his ass for the United States, and instead of all the tongue wagging maybe someone should tell him to be careful and take good care of himself, especially with regard to what he does or doesn’t do with drugs and alcohol.

Common sense. It can be pretty hard to come by these days, so here’s a little more for you.  When you need rubber stamps, shop Rubber Stamp Champ rather than going to an office supply store for your marking devices.  Now if you need office supplies, like blotters or paper clips, well then the office supply store is fine.  But if you really need rubber stamps…especially custom made rubber stamps, customized self inking rubber stamps, custom ink stamps, address stamps, return address stamps, pre inked stamps, date stamps, permanent ink stamps, UV inks, specialty inks and pads, notary supplies and a whole lot more in terms of marking devices and replacement pads, you’re far better off shopping at the Rubber Stamp Champ at www.RubberStampchamp.com.
