Blackberry Pearl??

Mike L sent this in.

Michelle Obama showed up Thursday as a surprise and welcomed volunteers at Miriam's Kitchen, a soup kitchen for homeless poor people not far from the White House.

Can't afford to buy food - not when you have to pay for the new cell
phone with camera...looks like the Blackberry Pearl!




Maybe we can start a charity which donates unused minutes to the homeless and poor...or maybe even earmark some "stimulus" dollars for cell phones for the homeless who don't already have a Blackberry!


Nice idea Mike, but Obamie is limiting charitable deductions that you can claim on your income tax...

Bump and Update! Obama's Mandatory Volunteers for 250,000 strong National Civilian Security Service

BUMP AND UPDATE



The problem is, no believes Obama. He writes books and no one believes what he says. He associates with self-identified terrorists who acts as Marxists and no one believes that he agrees with the Marxists. He tells us on TV that he wants to redistribute the wealth, and no one believes.

And even tells us that he needs a "Civilian National Security Force" that is just as strong, just as powerful, just as well funded as the military... and nobody believes him. Let's review this.

Click on this for the video of Obama.

I mean, how could he put this together.

Well, welcome to HR Bill 1188.... It spells it all out. We will have a volunteer mandatory force. And it has already passed the House and is in the Senate to be scheduled for a vote.

The U.S. House of Representatives has approved a plan to set up a new "volunteer corps" and consider whether "a workable, fair, and reasonable mandatory service requirement for all able young people" should be developed.

The legislation also refers to "uniforms" that would be worn by the "volunteers" and the "need" for a "public service academy, a 4-year institution" to "focus on training" future "public sector leaders." The training, apparently, would occur at "campuses."

The vote yesterday came on H.R. 1388, which reauthorizes through 2014 the National and Community Service Act of 1990 and the Domestic Volunteer Service Act of 1973, acts that originally, among other programs, funded the AmeriCorps and the National Senior Service Corps.

It not only reauthorizes the programs, but also includes "new programs and studies" and is expected to be funded with an allocation of $6 billion over the next five years, according to the Congressional Budget Office.

Many, however, are raising concerns that the program, which is intended to include 250,000 "volunteers," is the beginning of what President Obama called his "National Civilian Security Force" in a a speech last year in which he urged creating an organization as big and well-funded as the U.S. military. He has declined since then to elaborate.

Now I know, I know. World Net Daily can be a little hysterical from time to time, and besides that it is composed of people who believe in God, think we are a Constitutional Republic... all that kinda stuff... so maybe we should take it with a grain of salt.

So let's do this! Let's go to a government web site, and see what the Bill says.
Not, mind you, what I think, or WND thinks.... But just the words from the Bill.

Expresses the sense of the Congress that the number of AmeriCorps, VISTA, and NCCC participants should reach 250,000 by 2014.


Okay, fair enough. That's obviously the National Civilian Security Force he was talking about. Now, what else should we notice?

If we are talking about volunteers, why not call them "volunteers." But that isn't the word....

of AmeriCorps, VISTA, and NCCC participants should reach 250,000 by 2014


Such a simple thing, but if you mean volunteers and you are writing a law, why not write what you mean?

Congressional Commission on Civic Service Act - Establishes a Congressional Commission on Civic Service to provide recommendations to Congress on improving opportunities for individuals to volunteer or perform national service.


Let's look at the end phrase

on improving opportunities for individuals to volunteer or perform national service



Now that's strange. If they are talking about volunteers, wouldn't you just write:

"on improving opportunities for individuals to volunteer for
national service"

I mean, why the awkward wording? Why the "to perform?" Simple. Anyone reading it next year can see plainly that the act is meant to help people volunteer...... but if not enough do so.... be required "to perform."

And why would Obama need such?

Anybody here ever hear of the SS? Brown shirts? They were the folks who established and ran the Nazis for Hitler. Now I know that puts me in the "Oh he's paranoid pile," but just sit down and start thinking.

And what is the other trait that dictators share? They are in front of the people continually. Have you been able to turn your TV on lately without seeing Obama??

Obamie of the Windy Arts


Greetings dear chums, I have been traveling a bit and unlike so many intrepid bloggers I don't find time to give you a hour by hour, or even day by day for that matter of my many pungent observations, although I know that by not doing so I have deprived the world...

But that doesn't mean I don't remain your ever faithful reporter.

In addition to miles and miles of interstate highways I actually saw miles and miles of high tech windmills, some even turning and a hi-voltage transmission line going off into the distance. I was cheered by that. And the fact that wind was about 35 knots may have played a hand in it. Knowing the area I also know that you can have:

Day after day, day after day,
We stuck, nor breath nor motion;
As idle as a painted ship
Upon a painted ocean.
-- "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner," Samuel Taylor Coleridge


I mean I hate to be just so ungreen, but facts be facts. The wind doesn't blow all the times, and I just don't see how you can have a modern society based on energy sources that depend on temperature gradients and air pressure differentials.... And every time I bring this up, someone always starts talking about it working 90% of the time... battery storage.... etc., etc., etc.

One group of us is stupid and I don't think it is me and my group. Especially with Obamie talking about 10 million plug-in electric cars hitting the grid in 5 years. That means we are going to have to overbuild like crazy and we can't afford to overbuild in places that won't provide us a reliable supply of electricity.

The other point is that you can't just transmit electric energy over unlimited distances. Electric cables have resistance and resistance causes power losses.

Yes chums, even Obamie can not repeal Ohm's Law.
