RE: “Mother of All Tax Hikes” Bill
MEMO
RE: “Mother of All Tax Hikes” Bill
TO: Republican Members, Republican Staff
FROM: Ways and Means Committee Ranking Member Jim McCrery
Thank you Representative Charlie Rangel for this wonderful Democrat kiss.
Yes, thank you for a bill resulting in "The largest individual income tax increase in history." No matter how you shake it, we all are going to pay more!
Jeepers, I wonder why this Democratic Congress has the lowest ratings since Jimmy Carter:

It's expected that Republicans and Independents might get low ratings, but now we see the Dem's themselves give Congress a low score. Kinda says something, huh?
Mexican Racial Gang Murders in L.A.
Mexican gangs in Los Angeles are targeting Black gang members as well as innocent Black civilians in their quest to "racially cleanse" their territories.
This article is from Newsweek.com on October 24, 2007.
I wonder how many of theseMexican gangsters poor misunderstood immigrants are illegals?
And some of our elected (and unelected) officials wonder why the vast majority of American Citizens want to close our borders. This is just one of the many reasons.

Another comment on Hillary's Experience.
There was an interesting comment on the radio today comparing Hillary's vast White House experience in terms of other occupations:
A man called in to say that he's a plumber and wondered if it was OK to send his wife to fix the pipes in a customer's flooded basement.
After all, she has been married to a plumber for 30 years...she should be able to fix the pipes!

We all know where Slick Willie went to get his "pipes" fixed.

Actual Quotes from Hillary: Part II.
"I want you to get rid of all these bitches he's seeing...I want you to give me the names and addresses and phone numbers, so we can get them under control"
“Who is going to find out? These women are trash. Nobody’s going to believe them.” (on Bill Clinton’s bimbo eruptions).
“If I didn’t kick his ass every day, he wouldn’t be worth anything.” (on President Bill).
“The American people are tired of liars and people who pretend to be something they're not.”
"Why do I have to keep proving to people that I am not a liar?"
“We must stop thinking of the individual and start thinking about what is best for society.”
"I am a fan of the social policies that you find in Europe".
"Son of a Bitch"! (Hillary's opinion of President George W. Bush when she found out he secretly visited Iraq on Thanksgiving just days before her highly publicized trip.)
"I have to confess that it's crossed my mind that you could not be a Republican and a Christian."

Limbaugh letter nets $2.1 million for charity on eBay
Well, I guess some of the Democratic Senators are good for something. This just shows that their false condemnation of Rush Limbaugh for his remarks about "phony soldiers" was seen for what it was. A failed attempt to take the heat off of them for their support of the MoveOn.org "General Betray us" newspaper ad.
Just in case you aren't aware of why Rush made the "phony soldier" remark, this is who he was referring to. Here is the Wikipedia entry on Jesse Macbeth: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesse_Macbeth
By the way, Rush is matching this donation dollar for dollar. I challenge the 41 Senators who signed this ridiculous letter to "cowboy up" and donate an equal amount to the Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation here: http://www.mc-lef.org/ . That means you Hillary, Obama and Dodd.

What is her experience?
Excerpt from Mayor Giuliani's interview that aired on FOXNEWS's Hannity & Colmes on Tuesday October 16, 2007.
Rudy Giuliani: "Honestly, in most respects, I don't know Hillary's experience. She's never run a city, she's never run a state. She's never run a business. She has never met a payroll. She has never been responsible for the safety and security of millions of people, much less even hundreds of people.
"So I'm trying to figure out where the experience is here. It would seem to me that in a time of difficult problems and war we don't want on the job training for an executive. The reality is that these areas in which - maybe there are some areas in which she has experience but the areas of having the responsibility of the safety and security of millions of people on your shoulders is not something Hillary has ever had any experience with."
Now I know that Hillary would say that she has 8 years of White House experience. That she's been involved in some of the day to day decision making that her husband, President Bill, had to make. That she has wide experience with the politics that occur in the Executive branch. All this may be true.
But I guess we will never see proof of this experience. You see, Hillary Clinton's documents covering her White House years are locked up at her husband's presidential library, in the custody of federal archivists who do not expect them to be released until after the 2008 presidential election.
Now wait a minute. Hillary's been out of the White House for eight years. It takes that long to archive her papers? The voting public should have the right to know what is in her papers since she is claiming those years as part of her so called experience. There have been some papers released. They are the ones related to her failed attempt for asocialist national health care system. Those must show her in a good light. But even then about 1,000 pages have been withheld. I wonder what they have to say?
With Hillary aggressively pursuing the presidency, the record of her activities in the White House is very important. The public deserves to know what her role in the policy making of the Clinton White House. Understand, she was not an elected official nor a presidential appointment. She was not a presidential staffer. She was just the Presidents wife and therefore in the White House by default. There should be no executive privilege granted to a former First Lady. The voters did not elect her. As much as the Moonbats would have liked it, we did not have a co-presidency. Did she have top security clearance? I hope not. Just because she's the presidents spouse does not give her the right to know all of our country's secrets. There might have been somepillow talk., well maybe not in the Clinton White House.
The papers I'm most interested in are the ones that show what her daily schedule was, what was on her calendar and who did she have appointments with. And her memos, what would they show?
If Hillary is so proud of her accomplishments, the she shouldn't hide her record behind any vague laws setting time limits for the release of those records. She had her health care documents released, why not the rest.
Come on Hill, come clean with America!

Aesop's The Ant and the Grasshopper. A Conservative Version vs. a Liberal, Progressive Version
The Ant and the Grasshopper
(A bit too close to the truth to be comfortable)!
*CONSERVATIVE VERSION*:
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long,
building his house and laying up supplies for the winter.
The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays
the summer away. Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed.
The grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.
MORAL OF THE STORY: Be responsible for yourself!
*LIBERAL, PROGRESSIVE VERSION:*
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his
house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks the
ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.
Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and
demands to know why the ant should be warm and well fed while others are
cold and starving.
CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering
grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a
table filled with food.
America is stunned by the sharp contrast.
How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper
is allowed to suffer so?
Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper, and everybody
cries when they sing, "It's Not Easy Being Green."
Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton stage a demonstration in front of the ant's house where the news stations film the group singing, "We shall over come." Jesse and Al then have the group kneel down to pray to God for the grasshopper's sake.
Nancy Pelosi & John Kerry exclaim in an interview with Katie Couric that
the ant has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper, and both call
for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his fair share.
Finally, the EEOC drafts the Economic Equity and Anti-Grasshopper Act
retroactive to the beginning of the summer. The ant is fined for failing
to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, having nothing left to
pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the government.
Hillary Clinton gets her old law firm to represent the grasshopper in a
defamation suit against the ant, and the case is tried before a panel of
federal judges that Bill Clinton appointed from a list of single-parent
welfare recipients.
The ant loses the case.
The story ends as we see the grasshopper finishing up the last bits of
the ant's food while the government house he is in, which just happens
to be the ant's old house, crumbles around him because he doesn't
maintain it.
The ant has disappeared in the snow. The grasshopper is found dead in a
drug related incident and the house, now abandoned, is taken over by a
gang of spiders who terrorize the once peaceful neighborhood.
MORAL OF THE STORY: Be careful how you vote!

In Honor of Christopher Columbus
This past Monday Columbus Day was observed. Tomorrow (Oct. 12) is the traditional holiday.
In the past few days there have been many things said about this day being a celebration of his arrival and comparing it to a celebration of Hitler and the Holocaust. What the so-called political correct among us are really saying is that the Europeans who colonized the Americas were no better than murderers and slavers. It is also said that Columbus did not "discover" America. Yes, it's true that there were indigenous peoples here before and there were also other explorers who had visited North America previously. But what is also true is that Columbus was really the one who opened the eyes of the civilized world to it. What the PC crowd wants us to believe is that western civilization destroyed a land of peace and plenty for the Indians. Were there wrongs and atrocities committed? Yes, but as a people we have grown over time and along the way have become a better society. Not perfect but better. But lets not let the facts get in the way of the PC fantasy world where indigenous society was nothing but Paradise.
Before 1492 this land was inhabited by primarily hunter/gatherers. There were few permanent settlements. The people lived a nomadic existence, living day to day, hand to mouth. Life was hard. There was virtually no change in their lifestyles for thousands of years. Invention was unheard of. As far as the purported peaceful co-existence with other groups, well lets explore that for a bit. War was almost an endless activity for these people. Wars between tribes were some of the most brutal, bloody and sadistic one could imagine. The murder of an enemies children was a normal by-product of battle. The reasoning was that the child will grow to exact revenge for their group. Taking slaves and taking women as sex slaves was also a result of these battles. Blood sacrifice was a central part of pre-Colombian Aztec and Mayan culture. We see this same thing in primitive societies today. No change, no advancement, no progress.
This brings me to why Columbus should be honored and not made out to be a villain of epic proportions. It was his opening the door to civilization and to the ideas and the people who founded this country. The introduction of unheard of benefits. The ideas of thousands of thinkers and inventors were brought. Without the opening of America the thoughts and achievements of greats such as Aristotle, Plato, Copernicus may not have seen the light of day in the New World. If you listen to the PC folk, our society brings absolutely nothing to the table. Only horror, terror and disease. They say the brutal and backward Indian culture holds as much if not more value than ours. In an address to West Point in March of 1974, Ayn Rand said:
"[The Native Americans] didn't have any rights to the land and there was no reason for anyone to grant them rights which they had not conceived and were not using.... What was it they were fighting for, if they opposed white men on this continent? For their wish to continue a primitive existence, their "right" to keep part of the earth untouched, unused and not even as property, just keep everybody out so that you will live practically like an animal, or maybe a few caves above it. Any white person who brought the element of civilization had the right to take over this continent."
I'm sure some will say that I'm racist. They say all cultures intrinsically hold equal value. That all cultures are morally equal. Let me ask you...Is a culture that indulges in blood sacrifice equal? Is a culture that practices female genital mutilation equal? Is a stagnant culture better? Are men more equal than women? How about cannibalistic tribes, do they bring equal worth to mankind? The absolute fact is that some cultures are better than others. Western Civilization brings science rather than mysticism, reason instead of tribal ritual. Individualism, ambition and self-reliance are things to strive for. Values that state "All Men are Created Equal".
Look, there were absolutely very serious and horrible missteps made along the way. There is no way around it, no way to sugar coat it. We are still growing and correcting these things. But in the end we should honor our civilization instead of denigrating it. Thing are better now than they were. They will continue to get better. We as humans are better than we were.
It's time we honor our culture, Western Civilization.
It's time we reject this bullshit Multiculturalism. I do.

Dems Say World Will Be Better Off if U.S. Loses War in Iraq
NEW YORK — Nearly one out of every five Democrats thinks the world will be better off if America loses the war in Iraq, according to the FOX News Opinion Dynamics Poll released Thursday.
Click here for results of the poll.(pdf)
Democrats can't really mean this, can they? Are they that short sighted to believe that the Mideast and the world will be better off with run amok Islamo-Fascisim and a renewed will for the terrorists to commit murder of innocent people in the name of Allah. The fact of the matter is that a stable Iraq (if not a democratic one) is essential to peace in that part of the world.
I want the war in Iraq to end as much as anyone. But it has to be with some assurances that the people there can be safe from religious tyranny.
