Obama’s Extended Family: A Security Risk?

President Obama’s family is very large and extends all the way to Africa.  That could very well be a problem going forward for the United States.  Imagine the publicity a terrorist organization would get by grabbing an Obama family member living in Kenya?  Kidnapping the President’s relatives could even be seen as way to give the terrorists leverage .  The security afforded to his relatives overseas seems to be almost nonexistent.

Give Every Man/Woman/Child in the US $5,000: That’s Economic Stimulus!

For the past several months Congress has been bungling the economic recovery of the United States in every way imaginable. Lack of oversight, no direction and pork barrel spending have been their trademarks. So far they have spent $700 Billion of the taxpayers dollars on the Bailout and are closing in on approving an $825 Billion dollar Economic “Stimulus” package. Thus far the Bailout has done nothing to help the economy and each day we read about more and more CEO greed and corporate waste. The new Economic Stimulus package is doomed to the same fate as the Bailout. It is filled with Congressional pork barrel spending. If they were serious about helping the average Joe they would have instituted a plan similar to the one below. It’s simple and to the point.

YOUR Tax Dollars = $18 Billion in Wall Street Bonuses

In case you have not heard it’s been reported that Wall Street companies handed out $18 Billion dollars in bonuses as the US economy crumbled in 2008. Where did that money ultimately come from? The tax payer funded Bailout. The only thing that the Bailout has really shored up is the compensation system for rich executives. The economy is still in shambles, companies are failing left and right but the rich have gotten richer.

Now apparently President Obama has come out to express his disgust for this type of behavior but where is the action? Where is the oversight of these companies receiving tax payer funds? Congress essentially handed them a blank check but you don’t see them taking any responsibility. They are ultimately to blame but we all know that nothing will happen to them. The gave all the responsibility to former Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson. Before becoming Treasury Secretary he was the CEO of Goldman Sachs. Why would put a former Wall Street CEO in charge of handing out funds to Wall Street CEOs?

Stimulus Package: A Disaster Waiting To Happen!

You have probably been hearing a lot lately about the Stimulus Package. The $825 Billion dollar plan is designed to kick start the economy and get it out of the current recession. The unfortunate news is, it will do little to nothing to help. This is nothing more than another rush to make it seem like Congress is doing something to help. In effect it is a very expensive public relationship campaign for Congress. They have no idea how to fix the problem, they demonstrated this by engineering the Bailout debacle. What has the Bailout done for the average US citizen? The banks have made out great but it did absolutely nothing other than to preserve the status quo for rich bankers.

The Stimulus Package, as it stands now, may even hurt the US economy. Consider the following examples…
