CIA Conducted Mock Executions of Detainees

Well, all I can say about this act conducted by the CIA is AWESOME! You would have to be a fool to believe that these techniques are not used on our troops when they are captured.  Probably even worse.
If scaring a scumbag in to submission and having that scumbag terrorist give up information that would [...]

February 6, 2010 Sarah Palin, Tea Party No Comments By SactoDan

Many openly declare that they didn’t vote for Republican Sen. John McCain in the 2008 presidential election – they voted instead for his running mate ‘Sarah’.

Activists of the grassroots Tea Party phenomenon which exploded in reaction to Barack Obama’s economic policies are gathering for their first national meeting.

Tonight Sarah Palin will speak to the 600 members gathered at the Gaylord resort in Nashville many of who see her as the right person to fly the flag for their limited-government, low-tax, freedom-fighting programme. The question is, does she want it?

CA State Senator Alan Lowenthal Wants You To Pay For Parking, Everywhere

The essential part of the bill is that it goes to the heart of having a car. You need a place to park it. The theory is that if there were fewer parking spaces, you might think longer about taking the bus. (ABCNEWS)

State Senator Lowenthal thinks you have a convenient bus or light rail near you that you will ride if he makes you pay for parking. What a STUPID idea. This is the same logic used when Jerry Brown was Governor to build fewer roads. Rights of way for needed freeways were sold off under the theory that if traffic congestion got bad enough, people would stop driving. An example is the Watt Ave. and Sunrise Ave. corridor in Sacramento County. There would have been a freeway connecting US 50 and I 80 had Adriana Gianturco (Caltrans Director) and Jerry Brown not subscribed to this stupid logic.

Now the congestion is nearly unbearable but the rights of way are too expensive to recover and the roads cannot be built.

This is not New York City where population density favors mass transit and the city was built up around it. It is California. The same California with the highest unemployment, worse schools and highest taxes in the nation.

This kind of thinking got us the California we have, but it also got us the recent election in Massachusetts. Voters have had enough behavior modification. They need jobs.

Great idea Lowenthal, great timing! Here is Senator Lowenthal’s website. Maybe you could tell him what you think, or better yet, next election maybe vote for someone else.

Obama Would ‘Rather Be Really Good One-Term President’ Tells ABC

“I can guarantee that the worst thing we could do would be to raise taxes when the economy is still this weak,”

sawyer-obamaPresident Obama, buffeted by criticism of his massive health care reform bill and election setbacks, said today he remained determined to tackle health care and other big problems despite the political dangers to his presidency.

The president tells Diane Sawyer about his first term and poll numbers. “I’d rather be a really good one-term president than a mediocre two-term president,” he told ABC’s “World News” anchor Diane Sawyer in an exclusive interview today….

…”I can guarantee that the worst thing we could do would be to raise taxes when the economy is still this weak,” he replied.

Read the rest at ABC News.

In a two party system, the “other guys” are the only choice when the public wants a change. Obama (and the Democrats) misinterpreted their election as a mandate to advance their left wing agenda.

The message from Massachusetts was loud and clear. Being an independent lot, Americans want jobs rather than nanny state health care. They want to take care of themselves, not green socialism at the expense of the economy.

Perhaps the “ONE” has taken his repudiation in Massachusetts to heart. While his fall from grace is no doubt painful, it forces him to listen to what Americans really want.

It remains to be seen if Obama will simply shift his rhetoric and continue on a collision course with a growing number of Americans that prefer substance over style, or get off the perpetual campaign trail and get to work. Americans want a President that takes responsibility, governs from the middle and gets things done.

If that happens he could be a really good one term President and that would be good for all of us.
