Sincerely your pal (again, cuz you ROCK!)
FLBarbara
Anyone watch the speech and signing? I took a pass. Reading around the web I found the reactions to be less than ecstatic:
- “Does Obama ever not speak in generalizations and happy horseshit and pandering?”
- “Obama is clueless.”
- “Obama sounds like he is always talking to 7 year olds.”
- “Where is The Travelling Salvation Show headed tomorrow? My confidence is waning. I hear stammering….clouds must be passing over the teleprompter solar panel.”
- “Obama just said smart meters would save taxpayers “ONE BILLION dollars!” No, he didn’t put his pinkie to the corner of his mouth.”
(boo-hoo! looks like the mailbags full of love letters delivered to the White House mailroom may be getting a bit lighter. Poor Bambi.)
Better get cranking on your Puma Love Letters to O’Logo! Post them here.

Dear Mr. President,
I love the way you can speak so eloquently and smoothly. Does the stimulus package include telepromters for all schools so that students don’t ever have to learn anything and can be just like you?

The following link describes BO’s visit to Denver today and notes that “All the activity also is allowing Obama to get away from Washington, with its intense partisan wrangling, and be cheered by people who may benefit from the huge government intervention.”
Right. Heaven forbid the POTUS stay in DC to actually work at his job. Oh wait, I forgot, his job IS to stand in front of cheering throngs of people.

Dear
PresidentObama,I know you said you will help 95% of us voters and my state will raise my taxes and charge more for things like gas to help pay it’s 42 Billion dollar deficit.
I don’t think the $8/week from the
PorkPieHR1+ Bill will cover my loses so enclosed are all of my past due bills and especially the big one to the property tax guys. I know you will pay these for me since you mentioned over and over again that it was people like me that you wanted to help the most.I might loose my job, and I would appreciate being able to stay in one of your extra rooms in the Whitehouse if that happens.
I have run out of Kool-aid so please send me a check to cover my food expenses.
This is gonna be a difficult year, having to ask you to pay for everything…but I know that’s why you worked so hard with the DNC to get yer new job.
Talk to you soon and please send me money ASAP.
Thank you.

Dear Obama,
Its me again this time Murphy put me up to it. She thinks you rock too.
I have a lot of questions but here’s just a few.
Do you still think Hillary is a B**ch?
Your not giving her the finger anymore are you? How come she is the only one working in your administration? She really was ready day one HUH?
If you do not like living in the White house why don’t you move and let Hillary live there? It really is where she should be living.
she is used to the WH being chilly.
Why did you turn the heat up in the WH? I have to keep mine down, the amount of my bill and having no job and all…
That stimulus bill is really something did you read it? Not many people had the chance. I think Nancy and Harry did.
So when will I be working?
When will you be working?
Yes, I know basketball is hard work and so is campaigning and moving
I will be moving soon to my car.

Dear BO,
(Sorry, I didn’t vote for ya, so I don’t think I’m allowed to call you Mr. President)
Here in West Virginia, we’ve got a balanced budget. Sure, the economy, or lack there of, is hurtin everyone, but we hate to owe people, so we sacrificed some programs to balance our budget.
How much then, as a member of a fiscally responsible state, am I gonna have to pay to help out the states that are out of money? I mean, I don’t mind lending a helping hand, but what’s in it for me?
I don’t think I read anywhere in this stimulus plan that’s gonna help me pay the astronomical medical bills for my critical ill kid, or cut the red tape on mortgage refinancing so I can breath easier. I’d probably be better off to go into foreclosure, so I can get some help. Just goes against my grain, though. I’m not asking for a hand-out, I just want it made easier to sustain the things I’ve already work for. Hell, even if you got rid of the ATM fees, would be a step in the right direction.
I suppose I’m stepping over the boundaries on that last remark. Everyone knows those poor executives are losing their lively hood. Hell, I read where a couple of them might have to sell some of their houses, and not get a bonus next year.
Well, Mr. BO, I’ll quit complaining, I know your’s is a hard job. It must be taxing flying all over the country campaigning. By the way, what are you campaigning for? You won, remember? I don’t suppose you put money in that stimulus pkg. to cover your expenses for flyin all over the country. Sorry, for asking, but seems like somebody has to cover the cost. Maybe Barney Frank could give you some pointers on how to cut corners.
Well, thanks for listening,
Asking for Nothing, Applachian

Awesome letters to BO PUMAs……. Murph, where’s your letter?

One in three homes sold last month had previously been in foreclosure, according to the Houston Association of Realtors, and the increase in foreclosure inventory helped contribute to an 8.5 percent drop the median price of a single-family home.
Falling for the fourth straight month, the price fell to $127,850 in January compared to $139,720 a year earlier, the industry group said today.
Foreclosure sales made up 34 percent of all single-family home sales during the month, compared to 25 percent a year ago.
“That’s extraordinary,” said Jim Gaines, an economist at the Real Estate Center at Texas A&M University.

Mr. President:
Today you said that, with the signing of this stimulus bill, poor people who work hard,, will be able to pull themslves into the middle class, and never have to raise a child below the poverty line again, in a way we haven’t seen in this country in nearly 50 years.
Excuse me, but unless my math skills are worse than yours, you weren’t even here nearly 50 years ago. You were not even a twinkle in your unknown daddy’s eyes. So, all you could possibly know about conditions 50 years ago, had to come from some book I haven’t read yet.
Also, from what book are you basing your silly, erroneous imitation of President Lincoln from? Of course, you MUST know that President Lincoln and Dr. King spoke from the heart, not from a teleprompter?
My last question is: Why are you so afraid of women that you haven’t placed more of us in positions of serious authority and responsibility in your administration? Do your wife and daughters intimidate you THAT much? And, PLEASE cut the macho bullshit act…..it’s not fooling anyone and we totally understand it’s just a front to disguise your serious inadequacies.
Please step down, abdicate to a woman, before you totally disgrace America. Go be popular in Hollywood, or back to Chicago.
Sincerely,
A feline observer.

Pig roast demonstration in denver today:
Hundreds of taxpayers took time out of their busy day to protest President Obama’s “stimulus” bill-signing in Denver today. Jim Pfaff of Colorado Americans for Prosperity, Jon Caldara and the Independence Institute, former Rep. Tom Tancredo, and several GOP officials and state legislators spearheaded the event. Count us all among the “chattering classes” appalled at the massive pork and the short-circuited process that paved the way for the trillion-dollar Generational Theft Act.
Why bother? It’s for posterity’s sake. For the historical record. And, hopefully, it will spur others to move from the phones and computers to the streets. Community organizing helped propel Barack Obama to the White House. It could work for fiscal conservatism, too.

****************************************
and here’s more from the same story:
He reiterated that he never did end up donating to the governor or holding a fundraiser, and said that he told Robert Blagojevich in a later conversation that he couldn’t raise money because he was interested in the Senate seat. Burris, however, had already discussed the Senate seat with aides to the governor, including Robert Blagojevich, before the November election.

IT’S TIME TO FECK OBAMA!
Murphy – tomorrow is the last day for Public Comments to the FEC. Can you send something in for the PAC? There are some suggestions posted on the Team’s page. Others can send it in without name and address and they will not publish it, but may still get the message.
How is he going to manage $900 billion when he can’t handle $750 million responsibly?
BO has applied for Quarterly FEC reporting and has refunded only a small fraction of the exceedances of our complaints. His campaign funds are down lower than his questionable holdings. They are fighting it. I do not know if it is the money or the admission of incompetence that is the motive or the opposition but you bet it is a thorn in his craw.
A lot of PUMA have done a lot of work on this. Just reviewing our submissions is probably taxing the resources that the FEC is given to regulate these things. It IS important. Even though the campaign funds are dwarfed by the Porkulus, this is going to demonstrate his pattern of financial irresponsibility and make it more difficult for him to shirk responsibility when Porkulus fails.
We must hold our selected officials responsible. Do not let him get away with this to do it again in 2012.

Last night, I watched a special on CNBC called Marijuana, Inc. It was about the area in Northern California where I used to live and my kids still do. Apparently, it’s now legal according to state law for any individual to grow as many as 6 plants for medicinal purposes and you can get a prescription from most any doctor. The limit was recently lowered from 25.
But, supposedly, pot is the only thing saving the economies of Humboldt, Mendocino and Lake Counties. It was reported that, without it, most local business would fail because nobody would have money to spend at them.
One guy reported paying $200,000.00 in state income tax last year, and $500,000. in federal income tax.
Seems that marijuana is the #1 cash crop for the entire west coast. Amazing!!!!

Mendocine Co used to operate on a cash economy due to teh marijuana growers…
but then the Mafia and helicoptering cop raids moved in, so the original growers moved to Oregon in the late 80s, early 90s..

Wanted you to check something out HR 45..it was slipped in the Sh*t Bill..my son called upset yesterday…his brother-in-law ex special forces…started Patriot in N.C….military equipment manuf…special forces training for military..you get the idea…he said..this is how they will track who has guns and what they have…O has already put embargo on bullets that’s why you can’t get them…you can still buy guns BUT can’t get the bullets for them…even he has to go through military channels now..
Please check this out and let me know what you think?
Libuary of Congress…Thomas…the bill is HR 45..can read bill..
The catch he says is All guns must be reg., no problem..but if you move you have 60 days to give the Govt. new address, or it 10 years in jail…he says this is how they are going to track gun owners! excuse spelling still pissed over AZ!!!

deb55,
i has become common knowledge that the far left gun grabbers have lost the right to remove firearms from the public. What the mindset is is let the people have the firearms they are protected by the constitution but dont give them any bullets as bullets are not protected by the constitution. That is the underlying issue and what obot will do to the second admendment. Look americans better wake up becuase i beleive we have lost alot of our liberties and it is only getting worse.

I watched Sarah Palin last night, and she was great. Her daughter was good too in her interview.
That’s right, Obama has absolutely no respect for our military. He has no respect for anyone for that matter. It’s all about him. Sending troops into Afghanistan – no surprise. He’s up to something.

Just when you thought people couldn’t get any sicker:
http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/capress/090217/world/captive_woman
TOLEDO, Ohio – A man held a woman captive in handcuffs and an adult diaper for three days while he read Bible passages to her, police said.
Troy Brisport, 34, was charged with kidnapping and felonious assault. Bail was set Tuesday at $400,000.
He picked up the woman Wednesday night in Detroit after she told him she had nowhere to stay, and brought her to his home in Toledo, about 90 kilometres away, police said.
The woman told police that after she fell asleep Brisport handcuffed her wrists and ankles, gagged her, undressed her and put her in an adult diaper, then read Bible passages, said police Capt. Ray Carroll.
She apparently was not sexually assaulted, Carroll said.
However, court documents alleged that Brisport tried several times to suffocate the woman using a pillow and blanket.
The woman told police she escaped Saturday after Brisport fell asleep. Police found her dressed only in a T-shirt and the adult diaper and still wearing handcuffs.
There was no immediate response Tuesday to a call seeking comment from jail officials.

Mustang Ranch!
The Mustang Ranch and $850 billion bail-out
Back in 1990, the Government seized the Mustang Ranch brothel in Nevada
for tax evasion and, as required by law, tried to run it.
They failed and it closed. Now, we are trusting the economy of our country
and 850+Billion Dollars to a pack of nit-wits who couldn’t make money

None of us, as far as I know, are privy to HRC’s decision to be part of this administration. However, be sure that she considered her options, and thought this was her best choice to help America. Speaking only for myself, I was very disappointed in her decision. Considering her expertise in all areas of government, I believe that her talents are being totally wasted. But whatever else HRC is, she is her own woman, and obviously keeps her own counsel. We will just have to wait to see how it all plays out and hope for the best.

Danceswithpuma,
Planning on finally buying a reloader and stock piling gun powder and lead. When i go to the local skeet range they will let you pic up spent shells and cartridge cases by the bucket full for free. I figure i am able to reload a full box of shot gun shells for $4 compared to the 7-8 dollar price at wal-mart. Just food for thought but i am trying to convert our family to be as self sufficient as possible. Same with gardening, animals, etc. Our plan is still on course to move to alaska and than transition to a self sufficent family that doenst rely on government or stores for much of anything.

We have taken to the total bunker down mentality as i see a total collapse in just around the corner. I dont see how things will change. YOu dont get out of a financial crisis by adding billions of more spending on top of it. There is no cutting and the budget is get so fat you would swear the pig is going to explode. Taxes all over the place keep going up and million of amerikans are just plain dumb and dont care. That is what this election was all about. As far as the economy goes have you noticed how housing values are dropping everywheres. what is going to happen to all of those members who are now more indebt because there mortgages are higher than what their houses are worth. Just a sign that disaster is upon us and obot does nothing but wants to spend more money we dont have. Great leadership.

btw, there is another angle about the ammunition being tracked. When crimes are committed, to be able to track where it was purchased, by who and when–will help law enforcement solve crimes. I had not thought of this, it was pointed out to me by an officer of the law.

Just got an email from the Hillary Clinton Forum – has reopened again but I told them to cross me off their list. they have decided they are neutral on ‘the fraud’ and criticism is allowed and encouraged for dems, repubs, indies but no extemism – had to admit that I refuse to drink the kool aid, never did care much for it and that I absolutely loathe that empty suit fraud selected by teh ONC over Hillary Clinton and that I will never, ever have anything good to say about him so guess I’m too extreme for their web site…oh well, good thing PUMAPac is still here……………
I would post my letter to the fraud but it’s really, really, really bad and should probably be edited – maybe – thnkin’ on it and haven’t decided yet
LOL about the ranch & the bailout – I remember when that takeover happened and that the govmit couldn’t even run a whorehouse that could pretty much run itself……..like to see ole botox nancy there takin’ the reins – then she could run over to Italy again & visit the pope for absolution……..she needs it
sorry – am in kinda vicious mood – trying to go through 500,000 records of monetary abuse by the poverty pimp has given me a headache and I’m not done yet…………..

Dear President Obama,
My girlfriend and I watch all your speeches, and we watched you on TV tonight and, like, we were both so _surprised_ you are a leftie!
We laughed and laughed and said “no wonder!” you’re so smart you got all those people to vote for you. We thought it was really cool how all the reporters said “Obama now OWNS the economy!”, we would really love to have your autograph now more than ever!
Then we watched Bill Clinton on Larry King, OMG, OMG, you are _so_ much smarter than him, like, all he does is travel the world speaking complete and understandable sentences…working on dumb things like think tanks to solve the world’s problems, lame things like climate change and AIDS and helping people in impoverished countries. All the stuff that is waaay too smart for a great speechmaker like you!
If we could we would vote for you again and again! We hope you will pass many more economic stimulus bills, they are so stimulating!!

Coupla clips
1) Bad sign? Looks like the editor of Chicago Sun Times is hightailing it for Canada:
Michael Cooke, currently the editor in chief of the Chicago Sun-Times, will join the Toronto Star March 1 as the editor. Cooke is rejoining former colleague John Cruickshank, the Star’s current publisher, and former publisher of the Chicago Sun-Times and COO of the Chicago Sun-Times Media Group. Cooke returned to the Sun-Times in January 2006 after serving as editor in chief for the Daily News in New York from February 2005 until December 2006.
2) And by now, the Governor of California may be wishing he hadn’t outed Gray Davis:
NY Times’ Jennifer Steinhauer – California, Almost Broke, Nears Brink:
“The state of California — its deficits ballooning, its lawmakers intransigent and its governor apparently bereft of allies or influence — appears headed off the fiscal rails.
“Since the fall, when lawmakers began trying to attack the gaps in the $143 billion budget that their earlier plan had not addressed, the state has fallen into deeper financial straits, with more bad news coming daily from Sacramento. The state, nearly out of cash, has laid off scores of workers and put hundreds more on unpaid furloughs. It has stopped paying counties and issuing income tax refunds and halted thousands of infrastructure projects. …
“The roots of California’s inability to address its budget woes are statutory and political. The state, unlike most others, requires a two-thirds majority vote in the Legislature to pass budgets and tax increases. And its process for creating voter initiatives hamstrings the budget process by directing money for some programs while depriving others of cash. In a Legislature dominated by Democrats, some of whom lean far to the left, leaders have been unable to gather enough support from Republican lawmakers, who tend on average to be more conservative than the majority of California’s Republican voters and have unequivocally opposed all tax increases.
“And then there is Governor Schwarzenegger, whose budget woes far outweigh those of his predecessor, Gray Davis, whom he drummed from office in a 2003 recall that stemmed from the state’s fiscal problems at the time. The governor has failed to muster votes among lawmakers in his own party, whom he often opposes on ideological grounds, resulting in more scorn from Democrats.
“Furthermore, Republican leaders in the Senate and the Assembly who have agreed to get on board with a plan have been unable to persuade a few key lawmakers to join them. The package needs at least three Republican votes in each house, to join with the 51 Democrats in the Assembly and the 24 Democrats in the Senate. For months Republicans have vowed not to raise taxes, which in California means no increase in either the sales, gas or personal income tax.”

OK I am not over & out, I was just catching up on threads,
Taggles I like what you posted here, and it looks like a lot of other PUMA’s liked it too. Does this basically mean that to be a PUMA means to be a disenfranchised Democrat, I’d say hell yes!
“taggles1 02.13.09 at 6:47 pm
maybe there is a total disconnect. many pumas like me fought gwb and the republicans in control for eight long years or there about, while others blissfully went on about their lives and never fully understood the absolute corruption, stealing, and giving away of our money and rights. Whether it be they agree with republican policies or not does not really matter.
So now we come up on the primaries and election of 2008 we witness the same type of corruption, stealing and giving and taking away of our money and rights, but I and probably some like me, aren’t willing to run to the republicans for answers because we realize they are just as bad.
I am a woman without a political home. I believe in democratic principles, I believe in some conservative principles. But overall my personal ideology is left. But that doesn’t mean I give dems in control a pass. As a matter of fact, I have been fighting them, but I can’t and refuse to fight them by running over and joining the republican party which I know is just as corrupt.
I have too many years under my belt fighting against the republicans to think they represent my interests, and not all are reasons because I lean left. The patriot act is an infringement on our rights. I do not believe in torture. I never thought we should go to war with Iraq. I hate domestic wire tapping.
Now those are all things republicans did when in control and they have to take responsibility for that. Although they got some help from the dems.
But those reasons are not partisan reasons, in my mind. I think they are american values. I do have some personal ideological partisan differences, but they aren’t really important to the conversation because I do not believe the dems are doing what is right either.
It’s past either party for me. They both make me sick. And Republicans are not the answer. That is the disconnect.
and there it is.”

Sex Education
A man walks into a drug store with his 10 year old son. They
happen to walk by the condom display, and the boy asks, “What are these,
dad?”
To which the man matter-of-factly replies, “Those are called
condoms, son. Men use them to have safe sex.”
“Oh I see,” replied the boy pensively. “Yes, I’ve heard of
that in health class at school.”
He looks over the display and picks up a package of 3 and
asks, “Why are there 3 in this package?”
The dad replies, “Those are for the high school boys, ONE
for Friday, ONE for Saturday, and ONE for Sunday.”
“Cool” says the boy.
He notices a 6 pack and asks, “Then who are these for?”
“Those are for college men,” the dad answers, “TWO for
Friday, TWO for Saturday, and TWO for Sunday.”
“WOW!” exclaimed the boy.
“Then who uses THESE?” he asks, picking up a 12 pack.
. With a sigh and a tear in his eye, the dad replied, “Those
are for married men. ONE for January, ONE for February, ONE for
March……………”

Bush III in action:
The White House’s missing documents
In his first weeks in office, President Barack Obama shut down his predecessor’s system for reviewing regulations, realigned and expanded two key White House policymaking bodies and extended economic sanctions against parties to the conflict in the African nation of Cote D’Ivoire.
Despite the intense scrutiny a president gets just after the inauguration, Obama managed to take all these actions with nary a mention from the White House press corps.
clintondemocrat 02.18.09 at 1:26 am
I hope everyone saw President Clinton’s interview tonight. I was truly inspired by him, again. I just posted this response online:
President Clinton gave a fantastic interview tonight. He talked extensively about his philanthropic work. I have visited the Clinton School of Public Service and I believe that place along with the staff at the Climate Project are the two most amazing and idealistic places I have ever been to in my life. President Clinton’s work as president impacts my life every day and I’ll be happy to talk about that with anyone.
His work through the Clinton Foundation impacts our children in the United States and people all over the world. Tonight he cited over 46 billion spent around the world on projects helping over 250 million people!
I am a proud (under 100 dollar) donor to the Clinton Foundation. He spoke about the importance of those donors to his work tonight and Im proud of his work and my financial contribution to it.
It would be my honor of a lifetime to be a student at the Clinton School of Public Service.
Perhaps if I can restructure some student loans, I can have the time to go get an MPS degree from there one day.
President Clinton also revealed, tonight, that Chelsea Clinton is moving into the realm of public policy, which thrills me. As a fellow graduate student, I welcome her to the world of graduate studies! She is working on a Masters of Public Health at Columbia University which is absolutely phenomenal and I know she is going to be making real and direct contributions to our country and our world and we need her!
I thank President Clinton for all he has done for my original home state of Arkansas and all he has done through his leadership for me and all of us in a very real and tangible way. I also thank him for continuing to spread his service and idealism around the country and the world and continuing to inspire me and others to reach higher and serve others.
You know beyond all of this, Obama needs President Bill Clinton and his ability to talk, not preach, but talk to the American people about what’s going on. While Obama has used almost apocalyptic language in recent days, President Clinton said tonight: ‘I don’t know if we’ve hit the bottom but I know we’ll come out of it.’
It was an amazing interview and it was so refreshing to hear someone TALK rather than preach from the pulpit.
clintondemocrat 02.18.09 at 1:41 am
thanks for whomever posted the video from “your boy will.” He is absolutely right on.
clintondemocrat 02.18.09 at 2:22 am
LOL You’ve got to be kidding me. I don’t know who posted the links to “Remarks by Bill Clinton…” but besides watching Bill actually be able to think and talk from a place of intelligence, experience, and true optimism, the most ridiculous part was how almost relieved the CNN commentators were that on how optomistic he was. They couldn’t say enough good things about him.
I mean really, CNN, come on, you’re on the hope express with Obama all the way to “we’re going to reach a point where we can’t turn this around”
YES OF COURSE BILL CLINTON WAS OPTIMISTIC. Heck his very last speech from the oval office he said he was leaving the office more idealistic than when he came in… I believe in “Don’t stop thinking about tomorrow” and President Clinton has carried that with him always.
SO, OBAMITES, you want to know about hope, you want to know about change, go do your homework, children. You go learn about that administration. You drive to little rock. You look at the photos and read the stories with leaders from all over the world. You stop next door and you talk with the people in Clinton School for Public Service. It is the most HOPEFUL place in the country. It is the most idealistic place I have ever been in. You learn about what his global initative is really about. You watch Secretary Clinton as she travels all over this world and is met by long-time personal allies as well as humbly greeted by new national leaders. Just to put the icing on the cake, Chelsea Clinton has started her new program at Columbia university in Public Health. She will serve this country that have parents have served for so long in ways that we may never imagine. THAT IS HOPE. I still believe in a place called hope!
I spent the first year of my life in Arkansas, as a baby born when Clinton was governor. I voted for the first time in 1996 for President Clinton. These are our leaders of hope.
So, THE ONLY thing I can say about Obama being elected is that I am inspired deeply, I feel hopeful because I can see these great leaders across multiple generations inspire future generations, serve our country, and welcome the world with open and caring arms just as the world welcomes them. That is MY party, Obamites. That is the Democratic way.
It’s almost funny because President Clinton is breaking down this stimulus package and has almost taken it on as a mantlepiece for himself to help the country. He speaks, he talks to those who are listening and he is explaining it. I have a feeling by the time President Clinton is done with this week of talking about the stimulus you are going to see a lot HIGHER approval for it from the people than you would from Obama preachin’ gloom and doom from the pulpit. Yes, I still believe in a place called hope and we will NEVER stop thinking about tomorrow!

Mustang Ranch!
The Mustang Ranch and $850 billion bail-out
Back in 1990, the Government seized the Mustang Ranch brothel in Nevada
for tax evasion and, as required by law, tried to run it.
They failed and it closed. Now, we are trusting the economy of our country
and 850+Billion Dollars to a pack of nit-wits who couldn’t make money
running a whore house and selling booze.
Now if that doesn’t make you nervous, what does???
—————————————————————
The comment above that the government is required by law to run a seized business is incorrect. I am a retired fed and know exactly how the procedure in the seizure of property works. In addition, just as the media portrayed BO the way they wanted him portrayed, the media portrays federal agents the way they think will sell the most papers or get the most people to watch their t.v. stations. If you start to believe the media regarding feds just remember what you learned about the media regarding BO.
I also have personal experience of a personal tragedy being in the papers. The media portrayed the murderer as the victim because he knew how to play them.
