POPSPostal Employees Paid to Do Nothing I do not know about where you work, but where I work when the company does not have any work for me I do not work and I do not get paid. Unless of course I happen to qualify for unemployment benefits which pays me about 1/3 of what I would make if I actually worked. To add insult to injury, the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT is now going to BAIL OUT the post office and FORCE US TO PAY these idle workers OUT OF OUR HARD EARNED MONEY. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! And then we wonder why taxes continue to climb while those of us who actually make this country work continue to have to cut back and struggle to make ends meet.

POPSIt is Time to BAIL out of GOVERNMENT The out of control federal spending has spent us into bankruptcy. The lust for more and more power and control over the economy has left us with a bloated government operating without restraint or a moral compass. Our legislators have spent our children's future and their children's. IT IS TIME TO SAY ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

POPSGovernment Owned and Operated AIG Failing Another example of what happens when government sticks its nose into private industry. FAILURE! AIG was failing before US taxpayers were forced to bail them out, and guess what they are still failing. How much more taxpayer money is going to be needed to continue to prop up this failed company? And OBAMA wants to run our health care! GET REAL!

POPSDoes Bailout Come with a Company Car? As a major shareholder in the newly formed Government Motors I demand to know when I can pick up my company car. Could someone tell me which of the dealerships still in business are taking requests for company cars? Now that I am the majority stock holder in the company I would like to have as one of my perks a nice new company car and not one of them HYBRIDS either. I want one of those big old gas guzzlers that the President drives. If Ms Pelosi can fly around in a company jet, and the President can drive around in his fleet of SUV's then AS A MAJOR SHAREHOLDER IN GOVERNMENT motors SO CAN I. Please make delivery of my new company car to the address you have on file in my Share HOLDERS portfolio. THANK YOU.

POPSGovernment Program Aimed at Teen Pregnacy Fails Once again the enlightened and educated amongst us prove once again that COMMON SENSE has died. These government programs in England and in New York are destined to fail because of the very foundation they are attempting to build upon. Instead of teaching these AT RISK young ladies about self-esteem, and the virtues of a chaste lifestyle, they reason that since these girls are going to have sex anyway we might as well teach them about sex. And like every other government mandated program IT FAILED! Not only did it fail it FAILED miserably.The truth is it made the matter worse than if they would have left the girls alone. Sound familiar?

POPSNPR Silences Christian Speech Freedom of speech. Not if you happen to speak in religious tones. This really does not come as any surprise to me. This is the first step in silencing any DISSENTING speech against an out of control government. NPR is owned by THE TAXPAYERS of which Christians are a part. Therefore all tax payers should be represented and not just those who happen to speak the same language as the government that controls them. Free speech means just that. And when it comes to radio you can always turn the dial if you do not like what you are listening to which is exactly what I am going to do with NPR turn the dial off.

POPSHere's Your Stimulus Check America! That is how much the current government thinks we are worth. They spend 700 billion and we get $250.00. Why did you vote for this guy again? Just a point of fact, we are the economy. If Obama really wished to stimulate the economy he would give us all TAX CUTS not hand-me-downs. What a joke, but this eagle is not laughing. My talons are sharpened and ready to take captives.

POPSHey Look Here! Spending Cuts! Get out your magnifying glass. This one is going to be hard to see. To think the government actually hails this farce as an actual attempt to curb spending. When is the American public going to wake up. It is time we call for some REAL SUBSTANCE and not Rhetoric. He talks a good game but like most of Obama's other policies this is a graphical representation of how lame Obama's attempts really are to address any real problems.

POPSGov. Hand-outs Bankrupting Arizona Another example of what happens when too many people look to government for give me's. They come to the state house with the hands out and not with their sleeves rolled up. Instead of offering to work to produce wealth they are asking that it be redistributed. This sounds much like GM to me. Workers come to management and say give me. Management gives in and gives until they can not give anymore. With the government passing laws that does not promote fiscal responsibility it only compounds the problem. But sooner or later it comes time to pay the piper. Watch out folks this same crisis is spreading across this land at an alarming rate. There is a wild fire burning out of control. A fire extinguisher is not going to stop this inferno.

POPSGovernment Bailouts Unconstitutional, Well Sorta..
Up until the new deal Constitutional limitations were strictly enforced upon congress. However Roosevelt grew angry when told that he did not have the authority to enact all these government regulations and interventions into the private sector. His response was to replace these aging constructionist Supreme court judges with ardent NEW DEAL supporters and the rest like they say is history. No longer was it necessary to actually write legislation that had to be voted upon and approved through the regular democratic process, now all that needed to be done was for the Supreme court to legislate the Presidents objectives from the bench. And then congress would have to enact law accordingly. AFTER ALL who could argue with the SUPREME COURT? Does any of this sound familiar? Although the constitution strictly limited governmental powers Roosevelt found a way around the constitution. Lawlessness always finds a way to circumvent the law to justify their lawlessness.

POPS98% of all cities saw a rise in unemployment America needed a change he cried. America needs to go in a new direction was the campaign platform. Since being elected America has indeed gone in a new direction STRAIGHT DOWN. The Dow has gone down, consumer confidence has gone down,m retirement plans have gone down, employment has gone down, and the dollar has gone down in value. Way to go Barak. You surely are bringing America CHANGE. Pocket change. To be fair some things have gone up as well. DEFICIT GOVERNMENT SPENDING has gone through the roof. And before long TAXES will be sure to go up. SO HOPE AND CHANGE are on the way.

POPSAnother Spread the Wealth Proposal by B.O. This whole bailout business stinks to high heaven and yet many on both sides of the political aisle are walking lock step straight to the poor house. States now are wanting their share of TAXPAYER money. Those who fail want others to pay for their mistakes as they continue to operate in a business as usual manner. It is time for everyone to take fiscal responsibility for themselves. STOP THE MADNESS.

POPSCapital Visitor Center, Overpriced and Historically Inaccurate. Another Government run program that ended up costing way more than necessary in addition to promoting the expansion of Government programs while at the same time trashing the Constitution. This is the same congress who wants to run everything from your retirement accounts to your home mortgages and even the automobile industry. They can not even build a visitor center on budget and you want hand them the reigns of the health care system. GOD HELP US ALL!

POPSSomething Scary This Way Comes On the weeks leading up to Halloween something evil has been unearthed. Hidden away for 7 years it finally came to light here on the week before the election. This is enough to make your skin crawl. The above commentary was intended tongue in cheek for all those liberals out there who lack a sense of humor.

POPS"Welfare State Mentality" at the bottom of our financial woes! He who is ever desiring wealth goes running after money, and does not see that need will come on him. Prov 28:22 (BBE) Wealth gained hastily will dwindle, but whoever gathers little by little will increase it. Prov 13:11 (ESV) If you work hard for it you will appreciate the fruits of your labor more so then if it is simply handed to you without the toil and the sweat.

POPSACLU trying to control public prayer I thought the ACLU sought to protect people from the overreaching government and discrimination against religion, race, or creed. I guess I was mistaken. The mission statement of the ACLU states: The mission of the ACLU is to preserve all of these protections and guarantees: Your First Amendment rights - freedom of speech, association and assembly; freedom of the press, and freedom of religion. I wonder what changed?

POPSHow Not to Run a Government People are dying by the thousands in Burma and all the government can think of is protecting itself from a hostile people demanding change. I am praying for that very uprising to take place and this self-serving junta military government gets sent packing. I am sure these rulers are getting three squares a day and then some.

POPSHow Government Regulation effects oil prices at the pump As is usually the case with government intervention into private enterprise the unexpected results are usually far worse than the original problem congress set out to solve. Doesn't anybody study history anymore? It was not that long ago that the same ideas were floating around congress during the Carter years. Anyone remember the odd even gas days and the long lines at the pumps because of the government forced oil shortages of the 70's Among other mistakes from that period, the government increased the taxes levied on domestic oil producers, as if that would somehow help. The result was “reduced domestic oil production from between 3 and 6 percent, and increased oil imports from between 8 and 16 percent.” The government also instituted price controls, which only served to create the notorious gas shortages of that era. Yes, price controls meant consumers could get cheaper gas — but only after waiting in long gas lines and only if stations didn’t run out first.

POPSAgainst Law to Homeschool Well once again the government of the people by the people and for the people seems to be giving it to the people. I do not know how the public education system got so out of control in this country but I think it is about time we the people started to take back control of the things that matter in our society, starting with the education of our children.

POPSWhere our Tax Money Really Goes Once every taxpayers comes to grips with were our tax money really goes perhaps then and only then will the populace be able to pick leaders who are serious about our future. Taxing the rich to GIVE MONEY AWAY to those who do not work, refuse to work, are not able to work, or just feel they earned a hand out is not what government was set up to do. All this talk about cutting defense spending is only a smoke screen to keep our focus off of the REAL BUDGET sucker. Listen closely for that big sucking sound you hear coming from Washington is the sound of your hard earned money being sucked out of your pocket right into the pocket of someone who is not working.

POPSGov Needs to Take 3 Trillion dollars from US this year! HOLD ON TIGHTER to your wallets ladies and gentlemen the government has just told us HOW MUCH MONEY they are going to take from us. 3 trillion dollars. Now that is a lot of hamburgers. That is more than it would cost to buy a small country. HELL we could have bought IRAQ for that money. This is insane. If the government had to EARN that much money I wonder what the budget would look like then?
