Really? April 16-30, 2011
TUO = The Undocumented One
• Dollar down. Gold up.
• Oil up. Why? Dollar down.
• Food up. Why? Oil up.
• Real Estate value down. Why? TUO & Dems.
• Printing more money = Inflation.
• Big Spending Gov Spin: The economy is improving and there is no inflation.
The Right Jack believes that the US economy is improving very slowly despite the tremendous drag placed on the US economy by Big Spending Gov. However, inflation is driving up food and fuel prices along with the hidden inflation of the weakening US dollar. All of this can be linked to Big Spending Gov. See Money Mischief by Milton Friedman posted earlier this month. =trj
Generational Equality. See post on 4/30/11 at the right jack
Shame or Kudos. Democrat Politics of Person Destruction. You really must hand it to the Left Wing Democrats and their Big Time Dying Media. Together, they have been very successful at making many people believe that Republicans are far more diabolical than the lowest of the low dictatorial regimes on Earth. We have seen a number of examples of alliances like this in just the past 100 years where “The Party” and “The Media” joined forces as one to create a super class and a subservient underclass. There is neither Freedom of the Press nor Trust nor Freedom when The Press is linked hand-in-hand to one party or regime. =trj
For example: Democrats can lie with impunity today and the Big Time Dying Media seldom if ever challenges their statements or factless claims. Other 3rd parties must Fact Check their statements. Of course, those “misspeaks” seldom see the light of day in the Big Time Dying Media. Planned Parenthood abortion services for under age teens is yet another example of dementia of the media.

More Big Gov redundancy. There are at least 55 offices, departments and commissions devoted to civil rights and diversity throughout the federal government.

• Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division - $145.4 million;
• Department of Transportation’s Office of Civil Rights - $9.66 million;
• Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights - $102 Million;
• Equal Employment Opportunity Commission - $367 million

QE2 [printing money] to stop by the end of June. While claiming there is no inflation, if they economy does not improve, and it has not improved as a result of QE1 and QE2, they will print more rather than raise interest rates.
Birth Certificate numbers. Why does the Obama birth certificate issued by Hawaii Department of Health show a higher number [151 – 1961 – 10641] than those of the Nordyke twin girls [151 – 61 – 10637 and 151 – 61 – 10638] born a day after TUO? No records to show that his mother was a patient at the hospital. [WND] What is being hidden from the US Voters? It is still not over for TUO.
On Oprah. Reports are that Obama remembers being born in Hawaii. We know that “his subjects” say that he is very intelligent, but that revelation is down-right celestial. Click Here.

Dems in Massachusetts rid the state of union collective bargaining by public employees. Not making the news. Where are the protesters. 4/27/11 [Boston.com] Outrage by unions occurs only when GOP in charge. FDR was anti-union.
Why has TUO created problems for himself by withholding information that is commonly asked of regular US citizens every day? What is he hiding?
Liberals continue to play the race card every time there are disagreements with TUO policies. Objective is clearly to stifle dissent.

"While the upward trend in violence dates back to 2005, the major increase in violence came after a dramatic spike in 2008, as organized crime related homicides jumped to 6,837 killings, a 142% increase from 2007. After another increase of more than 40% to 9,614 killings in 2009, the number of killings linked to organized crime jumped by 59% in 2010, reaching a new record total of 15,273 deaths (Drug Violence in Mexico: Data and Analysis through 2010."

Obama has released a copy of his long form birth certificate. State of Hawaii will not allow people to obtain a copy of their own birth certificate. [WND] Chalk one up for Trump. No one else got it done.

Right now, Washington is buzzing with the rumors that Obama is planning to circumvent Congress enacting stroke-of-the-pen AMNESTY for ALL illegal aliens in the United States via Executive Orders and Administrative Directives! Obama will once more defy the majority of Americans and DICTATE his narcissistic brand of tyrannical "democratic socialism" that I like to call OBAMALISM – doing the exact opposite of what the people demand. This is an overt violation of the Constitution! [SocialismAlerts.com]

Why US Big Dem Gov wants to ban guns and ammo.

• 2,085,048 sold in 2000
• 1,718,050 licenses & permits of all types sold in 2005

US spending billions on foreign energy projects. [WND] US Big Dem Gov continues to place obstacles in the way of reducing US dependence on foreign energy sources.
Wrong-O. TUO stated recently, with shirt sleeves rolled up, that it is the job of business to create jobs. NOT! It is the job of business to make profits through the sale of goods and services. If successful, then jobs will be created. At least 30% of the populace believe everything he says, right or wrong. Young college students, many of whom are living on their parent’s “dime” and have no real world or job experience seem to be the most impressionable. Parents should educate their offspring, for their own sake.
Safe cities. See post here dated 4/22/11
Trump. Telling it like it is. Not afraid to challenge the Left even if it offends them. In the meantime, the Leftists are able to appear very upstanding and moral as TUO keeps making up stuff that sounds good to his young student audiences and their Leftist professors. No GOPer has yet to match Trump in bravado and honesty. Maybe all of the GOPers are afraid to offend the Left because that will keep them from being invited in as “show” members of the Ruling Class. =trj

Basket of currencies. When the anti-American Soros spent $50 million creating the New York City-based Institute for New Economic Thinking (INET), he set in motion a major move against the dollar. The billionaire who once crushed the British pound through currency trading openly declared his plans to 'reform the currency system.' In the Machiavellian mind of Soros, the dollar needed to take a back seat and end its stint as the world reserve currency. 'The dollar no longer enjoys the trust and confidence that it once did, yet no other currency can take its place,' he wrote in late 2009. Click Here to learn more.

Do not ever recall Republicans shouting down Democrats at public appearances. I do recall citizens objecting vocally when false statements by politicians are challenged in public forums in CA and TX but they were not shout downs.
