They have to pay tax on the full price of the vehicle, and some states might  count it as income, so they will have to pay that tax too!

U TRUST OBAMA ET AL WITH THE WEB?

Bill would give president emergency control of Internet
by Declan McCullagh 8.28.09

Internet companies and civil liberties groups were alarmed
this spring when a U.S. Senate bill proposed handing the White House
the power to disconnect private-sector computers from the Internet.

They’re not much happier about a revised version that aides to Sen.
Jay Rockefeller, a West Virginia Democrat, have spent months drafting
behind closed doors. CNET News has obtained a copy of the 55-page draft
(excerpt), which still appears to permit the president to seize
temporary control of private-sector networks during a so-called
cybersecurity emergency.
The new version would allow the president to “declare a cybersecurity
emergency” relating to “non-governmental” computer networks and do
what’s necessary to respond to the threat.
Other sections of the proposal include a federal certification program
for “cybersecurity professionals,” and a requirement that certain
computer systems and networks in the private sector.

CRAWFISH NOTE: How can ALL the news in a free speech
America get out if they crush Talk Radio and control the Web? Okay, how
will that 5-10% of the media that is not secular socialist exist? Looks
like another takeover described as something else. Should you trust the
STIM-Healthcare storm trooper democrats with yet another power grab
over your life? That queasy feeling about this ultra lefty
administration-congress just won’t go away, will it? Do not put
anything past this crew of kooks. They are true believers in secular
socialism…which means controlling your life like never ever before.

Doug Schexnayder, Ph.D. (theconservativecrawfish)

Am I the only one concerned about this?

I keep thinking about the time the Germans gave absolute power to Hitler. And wonder how long it will be before congress finishes breaking our laws and does the same thing to this wanna be dictator.

It is a shame there is no one in Washington to speak for Americans anymore, and that includes the so called supreme court.

 

“Less 1984 — More 1776"

The German people didn't

The German people didn't "give" Hitler absolute power, he create absolute power by the Enabling Act of 1933 after he was elected. He grabbed power, like Obama is now. They (like us) should have known better than to elect a dictator, and they paid a horrendous price for their mistake.

As the Reichstag prepared to vote in March 1933 for or against the Enabling Act, Storm Troopers gathered around the Kroll Opera House (where they were meeting) and yelled the following: Imagine ACORN doing this:

"Full powers - or else! We want the bill - or fire and murder!!"

Sound familiar?

Here a brief account of that event. Let us learn from their mistake.

No citizen's right to life, liberty, pursuit of happiness, or property is safe as long as Obama is President of the United States.

cel.......this is truly...

history repeating itself....I hope we all wake up before it's too late.  From the "Czars" to this "emergency" internet control, Obamas (storm troopers) civilian action force.......it really is 1933 all over again.

edit: When can we expect our "Reichstag" fire???

Cicero

Begrunt...I've been watching

Begrunt...I've been watching closely for the lead up to the false flag event. There's no doubt in my mind they have several scenarios ready. I'd look for Obama's ratings to drop to the low 40's or so, with citizens up in arms about what is happening to our country etc. Then watch out. That's when Obama will be the most dangerous.

And we already know the Old Media will support him no matter what he does in that event.

No citizen's right to life, liberty, pursuit of happiness, or property is safe as long as Obama is President of the United States.

cel......he needs his own.....

"Storm troopers" because he knows the US military would NEVER open fire on the American people, and he has to fear them the most, hence his own well funded, well trained "Civilian Corp", to counter the US military.....if that were to ever happen......say hello to Civil War.

What he is doing also reminds me of exactly what they have in Iran...remember their little inside force that beat and killed protesters the last election...not that long ago.

Thanks

I am glad to see someone undestands it better than I do. I was just going by a old school memory taught to me by my mother long ago..

“Less 1984 — More 1776"

Dragon...I came to the study

Dragon...I came to the study of history very late in my life. I'm almost 70 now, and I wish I had started when I was much younger. The subject isn't taught well in public schools so it's up to us to really dig in and see what has happened in the past.

I think a good working knowledge of history is one of the best antidotes to the drivel and lies the Old Media spews out on a daily basis.

No citizen's right to life, liberty, pursuit of happiness, or property is safe as long as Obama is President of the United States.

lib-think:

Male/female gender roles, especially the desire of women to be mothers, are purely social constructs.  But homosexuality - and every other sexual proclivity - are immutable, ingraned biological desires that cannot be questioned

mother: This is common

mother: This is common knowledge and nothing new. When a car dealer writes up an order, the tax liability is clearly defined.

We recently purchased a new vehicle. (But not under the CARS program.) Here in Ohio, if you buy a new car you pay tax on the price minus the value of a trade-in. If you buy used, you pay tax on the purchase price of the car - before trade-in. So I'd want to know more about how the government rebate is treated in each state, since you are technically trading in an old car. I have to admit skepticism about the rebate being treated as income, since an automaker's or dealer's rebate is not usually treated as such. Calling it a tax on the $4,500 or whatever is not really accurate, IMO. The tax is on the price of the vehicle.

I think Palin's "death panel" remark was a brilliant metaphor...and managed to change the tenor of the health care debate in a very significant way.

I look forward to more discussion-changing and colorful words from her....those who deem her stupid and insignificant do so at their own peril....because she is clearly a major talent at using a few choice words to focus an issue.

We have Barney Frank running gay prostitution rings out of his basement. We have the Louisiana guy with cold cash in his freezer. We have the likes of Al Franken (degenerate) as a Senator. We have Maxine Waters, Barney Frank and Obama doing all they can to take contributions from Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac and then blocking any oversight or regulation for thier misdeeds. Then, we have a press who idolizes more degenerates like Michael Jackson and Ted Kennedy. Whatever happened to shame in this country?

Obama's Plan to Desecrate 9/11

The Obama White House is behind a cynical, coldly calculated
political effort to erase the meaning of the Sept. 11, 2001
terrorist attacks from the American psyche and convert Sept. 11
into a day of leftist celebration and statist idolatry......

[Don't say I didn't warn you....]

The plan is to turn a "day of fear" that helps Republicans into a
day of activism called the National Day of Service that helps the
left. In other words, nihilistic liberals are planning to drain
9/11 of all meaning.


"They think it needs to be taken back from the right," said the
source. "They're taking that day and they're breaking it because
it gives Republicans an advantage. To them, that day is a fearful
day."

Read the whole thing and see who is participating.

You won't be surprised.

Lo and behold, more convicted criminals are handpicked by Obama to head up the project. I'm so glad the Hip Hop Caucus is in charge of defining patriotism now.

Volunteer boys and girls.

From whitehouse.gov

"From policy creation to community implementation, the Green the Block campaign wants to see access and opportunity created for all Americans, to build prosperity and a healthier planet for future generations," said Rev. Lennox Yearwood, Jr. of the Hip Hop Caucus. "The first milestone for Green the Block will be on our National Day of Service, September 11, 2009, where we will organize Green the Block service events around the country in coordination with the President's initiative, United We Serve."
 

Green the block boys and girls - that is what Sep. 11 is all about.

Islam day

Convert from islam   Hijri to  western Gregorian calender it's 9-11

Hawaii’s state senate has approved “Islam Day” for September 24,
2009. The measure, already been approved by the state’s house, passed
the senate 22-3 on May 6, with two Republicans and one Democrat in
opposition.

According to news reports, “Islam Day” seeks to
recognize the religious, scientific, cultural and artistic
contributions that Islam and the Islamic world have made.

Fox News on May 7 quoted senator Will Espero, a Democrat and supporter of the “Islam Day” measure.

“We
are a state of tolerance. We understand that people have different
beliefs. We may not all agree on every single item and issue out there,
but to say and highlight the negativity of the Islamic people is an
insult to the majority” of believers “who are good law-abiding citizens
of the world.”

Pearl Harbor to this!

Thanks be to "Hawaii's Number One Son"

Just disgusting!

CRS on Illegal Aliencare

The Congressional Research Office has published a report stating that illegal aliens will be covered under Obamacare:

CRS: "Under H.R. 3200, a 'Health Insurance Exchange' would begin operation in 2013 and would offer private plans alongside a public option...H.R. 3200 does not contain any restrictions on noncitzens-whether legally or illegally present, or in the United States temporarily or permanently-participating in the Exchange."

CRS also notes that the bill has no provision for requiring those seeking coverage or services to provided proof of citizenship. So, absent some major amendments to the legislation and a credible, concrete enforcement effort in action, looks like the myth on this issue is the one being spread by Obama, Reid, Pelosi, et. al.

No Myth: Illegal Immigrants Covered Under Obamacare:  http://www.americanthinker.com

 

Say, how's bout

we just deduct the cost of non-citizen health care from the donations we send to their home country every year? After all, we most certainly donate money to every country in the world, it would seem.

We could even put a "surcharge" for export duties, on those health care charges.  Maybe then their own gov'ments would try to keep them at home. 

How long before...

...we change "Presidents day" to "Obama's Birthday" !?

Bill would give president emergency control of Internet

If that's not enough to raise the hackles on the back of your neck, call your doc, because you're dead. 

I hope he fails, too.

 

 

~I just said that

To my husband last Thursday night. The only way for Obama to stop his opposition is to shut down their main means of communication. The internet.

Obama will finish What Jesus Begun says Time Magazine

"Some princes are born in palaces. Some are born in mangers. But a few are born in the imagination, out of scraps of history and hope.

 Barack Obama never talks about how people see him: I'm not the one making history, he said every chance he got. You are.

Yet as he looked out Tuesday night through the bulletproof glass, in a park named for a Civil War general, he had to see the truth on people's faces.

We are the ones we've been waiting for, he liked to say, but people were waiting for him, waiting for someone to finish what a King began."

Nancy Gibbs, Time Magazine

could some well-meaning lefty please explain?

Conservies are really getting tired of playing this game where we find the president befriending criminals and radical activists, but the left always has some excuse to explain it away.

1980s: Obama dabbles in drug use and gains street cred as a troubled youth. Later brags about doing cocaine on the presidental campaign trail. Lefties tell us to forgive his jouvenile mistakes.

1990s: Attends a party with a self-admitted terrorist and ends up working on a committee with said terrorist. Photos start appearing online of Obama attending Palestinian support meetings in the company of radical anti-Semites. He writes a memoir filled with resentment toward white people and a growing affection for BLT. By 2008, lefties tell us this is all in the past and he doesn't feel that way anymore.

2000s: Admits to being a member of Jeremiah Wright's church and calls Wright a personal mentor. After Wright is exposed as a racist, Obama is shocked to discover that yet another personal friend is a hateful bigot. Obama writes another book titled after one of Wright's sermons (even though this personal mentor is not that close to him). Michelle Obama is paid 300k salary to do imaginary "diversity" work for Univ. of Chicago hospital, which she continued to recieve even when campaigning full time. Obama uses his Senator status to funnel earmarks back to the hospital. In a completely unrelated story, Jill Stanek testifies about abuse of abortion laws in a major Chicago hospital, and Obama tells her to buzz off. LEFTIES SHRUG AND SAY WE ARE RACIST FOR BRINGING ANY OF IT UP.

2008: Lefties promise that Obama is done sowing wild oats. He learned his lesson about avoiding bad company and will work on being more pragmatic in the future. Governor Blagojevich is indicted for attempting to sell Obama's Senate seat and claims Obama's personal staffers knew about it. Again Obama is shocked that something so corrupt would happen around him. He tells the press he didn't even know Blago. More photos appear online showing Obama and Blago talking in a number of different locations. Obama changes the subject. Lefties tell us we are paranoid. Oh, and we all whitewash corruption in the Bush administration because WE are blinded by loyalty.

2009: Obama appoints convicted criminals and self-avowed communists to work directly under his supervision. Several cabinet nominations are shamed into resigning after learning they "forgot" to pay taxes. Fox News asks Obama if he knew about his handpicked czars being militant communists. He ignores the questions. More information leaks out that another domestic terrorist worked directly with Congress to write the stimulus bill. Lefties respond by calling us racist and telling Glenn Beck to shut up.

Who has the bad luck of befriending people who happen to be terrorists - for three decades in a row?? Why are we always being told "this is the last one" or "that's ancient history" when it keeps happening?

At what point will any lefty here admit, at the very least, that Obama's bad at vetting people and really bad at choosing his friends? Or is it okay for terrorists to write legislation - as long as it says what the DNC wants??

WORST MID-LIFE CRISIS...

WORST MID-LIFE CRISIS... EVAH!

Anyone have any idea whether Mark Sandford has just gone gaga mental, or what?

He's been offerd a way out, now looks like he's going to be impeached.  This is crazy.

Cone of Shame Award repeat: The intransigence of Mark Sanford
By Michelle Malkin  •  August 28, 2009 02:49 PM
He took a defiant stand against being “railroaded.” But he’s the one responsible for building the tracks to disaster himself.

Half of his state wants him out of office.

But Marshall C. Sanford still won’t go. So now, the intransigent liar and cheater will have to be pushed. Both Democrat and Republican state lawmakers are preparing for impeachment this weekend.

Thanks Barack! You've done more to promote conservatism than any president since Ronald Reagan (PBUH).

Well shoot, why not?

Teddy Kennedy lasted 30 years after his "incident".

But then we are talking South Carolina vs. Massachusetts.

gun control

Gun Control
B arrack Obama at a recent rural elementary school assembly in East Texas , asked the audience for total quiet.  Then, in the silence, he started to slowly clap his hands once every few seconds, holding the audience in total silence.

Then he said into the microphone, 'Children, every time I clap my hands together, a child in America dies from gun violence.'

Then, little Richard Earl, with a proud East Texas drawl, pierced the quiet and said: ''Well, dumb-ass, stop clapping!'  

misterbill, funny

 

 

State controlled health care is Tort Reform.

BUSTED: North Korea selling weapons to Iran

An Australian ship was seized last week, supposedly carrying industrial machines, but surprise - it was full of weapons.

Obama is very concerned about the situation. His response thus far has been to do nothing. You're welcome for the leadership.

going to the march on 9/12?

The left is gearing up for a nasty confrontation. Be prepared for this to appear on your car.

 

cd... Oh doesn't this fit

cd...

Oh doesn't this fit right in with their filthy wash...their tactics never change...and never will.

Thank you...and thank goodness for the internet.
