Oregon senator to ask for GAO probe of Hanford nuclear site

The Senator mentioned is Ron Wyden who has long been considered a moron by many of his constituents. In 1997 it was discovered that barrels of nuclear waste was leaking and, somehow, plans to clean up the mess was overlooked, forgotten and swept under the rug.

Now a guy at the University of Washington (a structural engineer who claims to be an "environmentalist and expert on energy issues) has magically "discovered" this an raised a big stink in the State Government. So why didn't he do this in 997?

And how bad is the waste seepage?   The material leaks out onto concrete where it pools.  It is inspected monthly to see if there is any increase or if the material is leading through the concrete slab.  It is and it's not.  In other words the whole thing is NOT new and has long been contained until some idiot Left Winger decided to make an issue of it and ultimately it was handed to a moron in Washington DC to handle.

If recent history tells us anything, nothing will be done with the waste but Obama will try and raise taxes for  "Investment in Infrastructure,"  whatever the hell that is.

Damn it!  This makes me feel like I missed out in High School.  I had some hot teachers. They never paid me no mind.

Insurance providers not buying into ObamaCare

In the beginning Obama convinced the Insurance industry they would make huge profits from Obamacare. It was smart on his part to play to the companies greed. But like everything else Obama has touched this has turned out to be another lie.  Now even the Insurance Companies are running from this mess because the states are looking at these pools and turning up their noses. This means all the pools (Exchanges) will be Federal, run by the same people who made welfare into a disaster.  Now the Administration cannot seem to decide what the perimeters of the health insurance are - what's covered, what's not and how much will the Insurance Company get.

The Administration's assumption in drafting this law was that the American people were so stupid they would run to the insurance companies and buy whatever was offered at whatever price with Obama claiming the cost would be "affordable."   In fact, it is affordable, if you are one of his targeted rich who he claims are to blame for all the world's problems and should be punished with higher taxes.  Obama, himself, said a few days ago, "I will not accept or sign any bill that hurts the middle class."   In fact, the greatest injury to the middle class since the Great Depression is Obamacare. 

Passenger from disabled ship files lawsuit over 'floating hell' cruise

In 2009 I was standing in the lobby of the Mark Hopkins Hotel in San Francisco.  For those of you who don't know that hotel, it is one of the iconic old hotels on the west coast. The rooms are immaculate as is the service.  As I stood there a woman walked up to the desk and began screaming and berating the desk clerk about the service. The longer this went on the louder it got. It seems the maid had not left a mint on her pillow the night before.  But to hear her tell it, the "Mark" was worse than the filthiest Motel 6.

What was the real problem?  In one word,  "Expectations."  This woman book into this expensive hotel expecting to be treated like a queen.  Instead, in her mind, she was treated like a common strumpet. But was she really?

Now turning to the Carnival Triumph  and taking a hard look I see much the same situation.  People booked "the cruise of the lifetime" and ended up on the short end.  I can understand that. But was it really as bad as these people claim?  Did anyone die? Did anyone become sick? I realize there was one elderly woman who was taken away in an ambulance, but was her problem related to the accident?  Another was removed a day earlier from the ship and taken to a hospital with an apparent stroke. Should either of these people even belonged on that cruise ship?

Two Texas mothers made prominent appearances in the media claiming their daughters (10 and 12) had phoned and cried wanting to come home "because the conditions were so awful."  I have to ask:  Who would be stupid enough to send two children on a cruise to Mexico by themselves? Oh, these two women. Sorry, I must not have been paying attention.

So now the law suits begin.  Was there any real damage? Did Carnival Cruises do the best they could in an unfortunate situation? Or is this really a case of unfulfilled expectations as much as the incontinence?

Democrats in denial about spending?

First Obama, then Nancy (The Insane) Pelosi and now Charlie (of all people) Rangle are claiming there is not spending problem in Washington.  Didn't they just give themselves a raise for the fine job they've done?  What did that cost?  Hasn't the economy floundered in recession ever since the $800 Millions Stimulus Package? Isn't the unemployment rate still at 7.9% and didn't the economy shrink in the last quarter of 2012?

I understand Keynesian Economics which obviously Obama and his cronies do not. Yes, it worked under FDR.  But that was a different situation and the spending was quite different.  In 1940 FDR was handing out contracts to large employers to hire workers to build war machinery for shipment to England.  Then through out the Second World War huge contracts were given out to companies such as Ford, Boing, Keiser and GM to build more war equipment.  Millions of people were put to work. The unemployment rate was negligible.  What FDR did not do was spend for unneeded roads and bridges. Use tax dollars to pay his cornies for campaign donations, pay cities to hire a few police and teachers (all union) and the like.

Clearly, Obama and the likes of Pelosi, Reid and Rangle have no idea about  how the economy works and how to kick start it now that it's in trouble.

House Republicans cool on path to citizenship

It seems that the battle is really over securing the border rather than whether or not to allow the illegals a path to citizenship.  According to the Democrats Obama has done more to secure the border than any president in history.  Their proof is that the flow of illegals crossing the southern border has slowed significantly. And that is true.

What the democrats do not admit is that the numbers have slowed because there are no jobs in the U.S. due to the Obama Economy. Instead they claim these people are needed to pay taxes to get us out of debt.  And how many pay taxes?  A much better question is:  How many will support the Democratic Ticket in 2016 ?

Alabama Teacher Suspended for "Fat Butt" Comment

The comment was part of a rant about Michelle Obama.  The story popped up on MSNBC.  It did my heart good to finally see someone telling the truth about Mrs. Fat Butt.

But the liberals again got their way.  The story was pulled after about 20 minutes and the Obama administration was again covered by the main stream media.  This is nothing new. MSNBC especially has a long history of killing stories that do not show the proper obedience to the Obamas. When are they going to learn Obama is not their friend?

White House releases photo of Obama shooting at Camp David

Well... I looked at this picture and what did I see?

The caption says Obama shooting skeet at Camp David on August 4, 2012.  So what's wrong with it? I can see three things.

1) In skeet shooting the targets are thrown high into the air.  Obama is firing this gun level to the ground.  That makes about as much sense as Obamacare.  Note that Obama is standing straight rather than leaning into the target.  He is off balance and has no idea how to shoulder that weapon.

2) The gun is smoking.  Modern ammunition is loaded with "Smokeless Powder" invented in 1884.  It became the standard for ammunition during the 1890's. Only black powder smokes.  So why is this gun smoking as it is fired?

3)  Another oddity is there are two puffs of smoke. One comes from the barrel as you would expect. But there is a second shooting off are right angles at a place a few inches from the muzzle. Can anyone explain that extra puff of smoke?

The only possibility is this picture is both faked and photoshoped to cover a error Obama made when he told the press he went Skeet Shooting "all the time."
