FOLLOW THE CONSTITUTION.  REMBER VOTE REPUBLICAN THIS NOVEMBER.

Some people make the argument that Romney is a good choice because he’s a business and outsider, i.e. has not spent a lot of time in DC. I say; So what??

Romney was so disliked as governor he did not even bother to run for a second. He ran against Senator Ted Kennedy and lost. If Romney could actually win an election, we would have been an insider. Guess he has his unpopularity to thank for that and he is still not liked by the people.

The businessman we had as president (George W.) sacrificed the free market to save the free market, created the failing No Child Left Behind and added to the troubles of SS with an unfunded drug program!!

Don’t look to Romney’s business experience look to the POLITICS of this “severely” phony conservative.

Tell me; What kind of conservative uses the power of gov’t to FORCE FREE Americans to buy anything and is PROUD of it?? Somehow FORCE & FREE do not go together when considering someone a conservative, that may just be me but I hope not. Romney created the basis for ObamaCare but we’re supposed to believe that because it was just at the state level that it’s okay. WRONG. No true conservative would do such a thing.

Also Romney fell for the left’s global warming hoax and STILL believes it and in ethanol subsides. Ethanol is a threat to our foods supplies. Even Democrats realized that as they supported letting ethanol subsidizes expire. DEMOCRATS!!! Let a subsidy die! Mitt didn’t.

Businessmen are frugal and watch the bottom line. Right?? Businessmen deal with their own money or investor’s money for profit. As I said let’s look at Romney’s politics when he was governor and using the public’s money:

• Scored a 55 on CATO scorecard of Governors.
• 4 years as governor – 220 days absent his last year.

• Promised no new taxes and raised them excessively.In 2003, Romney actually set the record for the most fee increases enacted by a state, according to the National Conference of State Legislators. In addition, he raised over $300 million dollars from businesses by “closing loopholes” on subchapter S corporations but this loophole closing actually resulted in doubling the tax rates. Indeed, as Peter Nicholas, chairman of Boston Scientific stated, “when Mitt Romney became governor in 2003, subchapter S corporations that were owned by Massachusetts business trusts were taxed at 5.3 percent…..By the time Romney left office, the tax rate on these corporations had climbed to 9.8 percent.” *
• Was 47th out of 50 in job creation of all Governors. If Katrina had not hit he would have been lower.
• State spending ended $5.2 billion dollars higher when he began office.
• He left a $3 billion deficit.
• He spent millions on pork projects such as buying new cars for welfare recipients.
• Initiated most liberal progressive socialized health care of any state in history.  50% (2010 poll) dislike it, and costs are higher than other states.
• Allowed Planned Parenthood to be incorporated into MA law by name as part of the oversight of parts of the program.
• Used executive orders to implement gay marriage
• Romney spent millions of state money pursuing Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) and although they dumped it, then created the Massachusetts Climate Protection Plan
• Romney dramatically limited emissions on six power plants, even going so far as to claim – with radical environmentalists at his side – that one power plant had killed 59 people.
• He continued to grant state aid to four “sanctuary cities” in Massachusetts with no effort made to restrict this assistance. Contrary to his campaign propaganda there was no bill or effort to give drivers licenses to illegals that he “fought.”
• One of his own endorsers (Powerline) admit, “…there is no question that Governor Romney’s initial fiscal discipline slacked off in the second half of his term…” Note: Said another way, he couldn’t even be fiscally responsible for more than  2 years.

Besides RomneyCare what else does Romney have in common with Obama? We look at Obama’s shady past, how about Romney’s:

A. Mitt Romney has stated his chief political mentor was his father, George Romney.
B. George Romney, a steadfast progressive, credited Saul Alinsky, met with him, and recommended his work.

A+B = Mitt Romney’s chief political mentor was a steadfast progressive who credited Saul Alinsky, met with him, and recommended his work.

http://gulagbound.com/25499/mitt-romneys-mentor-his-father-a-fan-of-saul-alinsky/

Like Obama, Romney’s father was NOT born in America but in Mexico. Did his dad become an American citizen before Mitt was born? I have not found any evidence that he had. But hey, that didn’t matter for Obama, why worry about it with Mitt.

Why the hell would any conservative vote for Romney??

SO I ASK WHERE IS HARRY REID ON THIS ??????????????/

Nevada is in the toughest economic shape by far, with a 12.1 percent unemployment rate. Florida (10.6 percent) and Michigan (10.3 percent) have double-digit jobless rates, while North Carolina’s 9.7 percent keeps it slightly above the national average.

Those four states will account for 66 electoral votes in 2012. Both parties are likely to target 10 states that have unemployment rates below the national average — Colorado, Iowa, Indiana, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Wisconsin. Those states have a total of 106 electoral votes.

Both Ohio and Colorado had an unemployment rate of 8.6 percent in May, just half a point below the national average. Wisconsin and Pennsylvania each stood at 7.4 percent. Those four states will reward a total of 57 electoral votes in 2012, more than enough to cost Obama the presidency if he lost them and the states mentioned above.

Second, in each of the 14 swing states, the unemployment rate has risen from where it stood in October 2008 — just a month before he beat Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) to claim the presidency. The increases range from marginal — just a 0.7-point jump in Minnesota and New Hampshire — to the nearly catastrophic in places such as Nevada (up 4.4 points) and Florida (up 3.6).

Here are the actual Unemployment numbers not being reported to you via the Bais TV new stations. Please has anyone came to Las Vegas Lately see all the Casino's that were under construction and have not had Union workers on the Job Sites since 2007-2008 There are still over 70,000 folks unemployed in Las Vegas but you here nothing about this only How Great the Job Market is.

So if the Candidates key on these States regarding Jobs Jobs Jobs it will be win win for REPUBLICNAS !!

The 14 states, plus the District of Columbia, considered safe for Obama in 2012 comprise 186 electoral votes; of that total, 90 are in states where the unemployment rate outstrips the national average — including California (55 electoral votes), where 11.7 percent of the population was unemployed in May.

Actual Unemployment numbers !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The number of people available to work is 158,5 million, not the 141 million the Department of Labor is using. When we compute the fraction of people on the unemployment roles out of this larger, more accurate pool, the actual unemployment rate is 11.2%.

The eligibility issue is not going away if the Supreme Court refuses to deal with it!

Posted on The Post & Email-By Sharon Rondeau-On February 17, 2012:

“(Feb. 17, 2012) — 11:49 a.m. ET – The Post & Email has just learned that the U.S. Supreme Court will be conferencing today to decide whether or not to hear the case of Purpura v. Sebelius, which challenges the constitutionality of the health care bill and Obama’s eligibility to hold office.

Plaintiffs Nicholas Purpura and Donald R. Laster, Jr. call their challenge the “We the People” brief.

Purpura stated that his case is “the best one” to challenge the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act passed in March 2010 by the 111^th Congress and signed by Obama.  He had submitted a Request for Reargument to the Supreme Court’s decision not to hear the case on January 17, 2012.

Purpura has stated that “the reason they don’t want to take the case and why they’re most frightened is Count 6,” which claims that if Obama is not eligible to serve as President, the bill is null and void.

A prayer request was put out by Purpura, and today he stated that he is “getting calls from all over the country” in response to it.  “People are praying at the Oklahoma Air Force base; people throughout the country…they’re even praying at the Supreme Court!  They want their lawsuit heard,” he said.

A new 17-page brief with 15 pages of argument sent to the Supreme Court was dated January 27, with Purpura representing himself.  “What I told them flat-out is that you have no choice but to hear this,” Purpura told The Post & Email.  “Count 6 is the most important.”

Purpura also said that “Sotomayor and Kagan cannot hear this case” because of their conflict of interest, having been appointed to the court by Obama.

{…}

Count 6 reads:

• Count 6  Violation Article 2, Section 1, Paragraph 5; No Constitutional question before this Honorable Court surpasses the importance concerning this issue that must be adjudicated.  Petitioner has never stated Mr. Obama is not a citizen of the United States.  That being said, the Constitutional question exists:  is Mr. Obama a “natural born Citizen”, if not; how can he exercise the authority of the office of President?  Failure to address this Count would constitute a desertion from ones [sic] sworn fiduciary duty and betrayal of the United States Constitution.  (See Article 6, Paragraph 2).  The Court must consider during the years Mr. Obama was developing a power base and running for President Congress 8-times attempted to remove the Constitution’s requirement that a president be a “natural-born citizen,” suggesting an organized strategy…

19. Therefore, the question still exists whether Mr. Obama was eligible to sign “Act” in law, make appointments, institute regulations or hold the office of president?

Of this new development, Purpura told The Post & Email:

• This is really important, because they’re disenfranchising the voters if they don’t hear it.  The first three pages, which are the opening statement, will tell you everything, and so will the last page.  The only count that really counts here is Count 6.  As you know, there are ballot challenges throughout the country, and what I told them flat-out is, “You have no choice but to hear this because we have a constitutional crisis.”  I’m believing, that if you read Count 6, because that’s the most important one in the whole brief, they’re sort-of trapped if they’re honest.  Kagan and Sotomayor cannot by U.S. statute participate.  So we’re in great shape in reality. But will they obey the statutes, or will they do what this administration is doing:  ignoring the law that are on the books in the United States.

Purpura then read from the third page of the brief:

• It is incumbent upon this Court to settle the issue of ‘eligibility’ post haste to afford those in the Democrat Party an opportunity to choose an “eligible” candidate to be on the ballot in November.  To do otherwise disenfranchises all voters and continues the constitutional crisis that has been escalating since the Courts refused to address Hillary Clinton’s 2008 Presidential campaign’s challenge.  To ignore this constitutional challenge will have devastating consequence, which this Court bears full responsibility for failing to perform its fiduciary duty pursuant to your sworn oath taken by every Member of this Court.

Note:  The following website reveals Health Care for America Now (HCAN), which is a George Soros funded organization that was established in early 2009, and describes itself as a “national grassroots campaign of more than 1,000 organizations in 46 states representing 30 million people” who believe that “our government’s responsibility is to guarantee quality affordable health care for everyone in America and it must play a central role in regulating, financing, and providing health coverage …” Specifically, HCAN supports a “single payer” model where the federal government would be in charge of financing and administering the entire U.S. healthcare system.

HCAN’s strategy is to achieve such a system incrementally, first by implementing “the public option”—i.e., a government insurance agency to “compete” with private insurers, so that Americans will be “no longer at the mercy of the private insurance industry.” Because such a government agency would not need to show a profit in order to remain in business, and because it could tax and regulate its private competitors in whatever fashion it pleased, this “public option” would soon force private insurers out of the industry.

Former Vermont Governor Howard Dean announced HCAN’s mission on the first night of the annual “America’s Future Now!” conference hosted in June 2009 by the Campaign for America’s Future, where Dean pledged to spend up to $82 million to advance the cause of socialized medicine.



Effective at mobilizing large numbers of demonstrators who share its healthcare ideals, HCAN rallied 15,000 people in Washington, DC in April 2009, another 10,000 there in June 2009, and—in collaboration with the Maine People’s Alliance—hundreds more in three Maine cities the month after that. In addition to organizing and funding local demonstrations such as these, HCAN devoted significant financial resources to such initiatives as advertising in regional and national television and print media, and to establishing a major presence in the new media world of the Internet, blogs, and text messaging.

Most of HCAN’s component organizations have no experience or expertise in health care, and virtually all have received large, tax-exempt grants from leftist billionaire financiers like George Soros and Teresa Heinz Kerry. The public demonstrations for health-care reform that HCAN has organized are largely Soros-financed operations. In August 2009, Soros pledged $5 million to HCAN.

The HCAN Steering Committee is composed of the following organizations: ACORN; the AFL-CIO; the AFSCME; the American Federation of Teachers; Americans United for Change; the Campaign for America’s Future; the Center for American Progress Action Fund; the Campaign for Community Change (the so-called "action center" of the Center for Community Change); the Children’s Defense Fund Action Council; the Communications Workers of America; the United Automobile, Aerospace & Agricultural Implement Workers of America (UAW); MoveOn.org; the NAACP; the National Council of La Raza; the National Education Association; the National Women’s Law Center; the Service Employees International Union (SEIU); the United Food and Commercial Workers Union; USAction; Women’s Voices, Women’s Vote; and Working America.

I REMEBER WHEN MEDICAL INSURANCE COVERAGES  "DID NOT" INCLUDE ANY PROCEDURES WHICH WERE NOT MEDEICALLY DETERMINED TO BE NECCESARY TO CORRECT A SERIOUS MEDICAL CONDITION, ABORTIONS AND TREATMENTS THAT WERE NOT NECESSARY HAD TO BE PAID FOR THE PEOPLE ELECTING TO HAVE THEM . SURGERY TO PREVENT FURTHER PREGNANCY'S WERE COVERED ONLY WHEN THE HEALTH AND LIFE ISSUES WERE MEDICALLY DOCUMENTED.  WHEN INSURANCE COMPANIES BEGAN TO PROVIDE COVERAGES FOR ELECTIVE PROCEDURES, THE PEOPLE MAKING THOSE ELECTIVE CHOICES PAID THE ADDITIONAL PREMIUMS. WHEN ROE BECAME EFFICTIVE, ABORTIONS AND CONTRACEPTIVES WERE ELECTIVES PAID FOR BY THE INDIVIDUALS ELECTING THEM AND THOSE NOT ELECTING SUCH PROCEDURES DID NOT HAVE THEIR INSURANCE PREMIUMS EFFECTED AT ALL.  WHAT HAS HAPPENED IN THE LATEST ROUND OF LAWS WHICH RESULTS IN THOSE PEOPLE WHOSE MORAL BELIEFS ARE APPOSED TO THOSE ELECTIVE PROCEDURES HAVING TO SHARE THE COST OF ADDITIONAL PREMIUM COVERAGES. MOST OF THESE PEOPLE WHO OPPOSE ELECTIVE PROCEDURES ARE NOT SUPER RICH OR EVEN MODERATLY AFFLUENT AND IT IS NOT FAIR FOR THOSE PEOPLE TO HAVE TO BEAR THE ADDITIONAL PREMIUM COSTS OF THOSE WHO DON'T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT GOOD MORALS. YET, WE HAVE A PRESIDENT,  INFLUENTIAL MEMBERS OF CONGRESS, AND AFFLUENT PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE THAT EVERYONE SHOULD SHARE THOSE INCREASED INSURANCE COSTS. IF THEY ARE WILLING TO SHARE THE INCREASED COST OF ELECTIVE MEDICAL PROCEDURES, THERE ARE MANY OTHER WAYS THAT THEY CAN CONTRIBUTE TO THOSE POOR  AND NEEDY PEOPLE WITHOUT ADDING TO THE RANKS OF THE POOR AND NEEDY BY MAKING EVERYONE SHARE THOSE COSTS.  ELECTIVE MEDEICAL PROCEDURES AND TREAMENTS SHOULD BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THOSE MAKING THE ELECTION AND THE VARIOUS OLRGINIZATIONS WHO PROMOTE THEM.

WE THE GOVERMENT ARE ALMOST BROKE, WHARE IS YOUR HAND OUT THEN/???????????I BELIVE THAT ANY BODY WHO REALLY WANTS TO FIND WORK CAN FIND IT,  IT MAY NOT PAY AS MUCH.  DO NOT BE A GIVE ME.

I received a tax assessment from the IRS. The Bible tells us we are made in God’s image.  As a self-employed person, and now one of the working poor without the right credentials for government handouts, not one of the “Lord God’s” Garden of Eden welfare state dependents, also with a kick in the butt from the IRS while I was living from hand to mouth, knowing good and evil, knowing the United States is not made in God’s image, knowing that in the Bible Job was tested in his faith; I was being tested.

Wouldn’t you know that authority wants you to know only good?  What about this “Lord God” in the story of Adam and Eve who wants us to know only his good?

 The lordly IRS claimed—mistakenly—that I owed $1,500 in tax. A government mistake, I was to learn, the same as the Lord God’s law—that knows only good—taxpayers  are guilty until proven innocent (It’s for the good of all.), with my landlord threatening to lock me out for nonpayment of rent, as the serpent in the proverbial tree of knowledge of good and evil is my witness, the Lord God was confiscating my existence.

It’s people like me that give America a bad name. Jesus was a socialist, you know.  Obama calls his faith in Christ “collective salvation.”  The Lord God decreed that I was to give up my good and evil notion and become a government dependent knowing only good.

The First Amendment of the Constitution, according to fairest-of-them-all, Lord God Obama (he knows religious freedom, Catholics don’t) Obama, the Bible thumper, an ideologue living in Utopia, I’m here to tell you it takes someone knowing good and evil, someone with God-given reason to defeat those worshiping their own conjured good.    

Jesus said the meek shall inherit the earth. He said, “Blessed are the poor in spirit: for their’s is the kingdom of heaven.” He said, “rejoice and be exceeding glad: for great is our reward in heaven.”  He said, “in earth as it is in heaven.”  Jesus was not a socialist. Obama goes on his dreams; I go on sustainable facts. We are all God’s creatures, a God who loves his creation and send Jesus to advise us. Jesus is my savior and redeemer.  Just between you and I, Obama is a fraud. You can read all about me and The Lord God under the title In Earth as It Is in Heaven 2012.

Howdy all!  Sorry about not sharing for a couple of days.  It’s been busy at the compound.  Went to a local Tea Party committee meeting, and ended up becoming a PCO.  Uh oh, looks like Tommy Kiley is getting really involved!  Even got my first message; Josh Romney is coming to the Tri Cities,WA on February 21st at 9-10 am.  Sorry about the hour, but they didn't ask me to schedule.  Then, the Mrs. got her new wheels and I was playing with them!  Who says those power scooters aren’t dangerous?  Just try to get around the corner at top speed.  Guess I need to learn how to repair sheet rock.

ANY CHRISTAN CHURCH  WILL BE  FINE.  VOTE FOR A CHRISTAN THIS COMING NOVEMBER. DO NOT BE FOOLED.  VOTE REPUBLICAN.

What’s disturbing about this picture?

Posted on Prison Planet-By The Economic Collapse-On February 16, 2012:

“You might not want to read this article if you have a weak stomach.  Most Americans have absolutely no idea what is going on in the dark corners of America, and when people find out the truth it can come as quite a shock.  Many of you will not believe some of the things Americans are doing just to survive.  Some families are living in sewers and drain tunnels, some families are living in tents, some families are living in their cars, some families will make ketchup soup for dinner tonight and some families are even eating rats.  Some homeless shelters in America are so overloaded that they are actually sending people out to live in the woods.  As you read this, there are close to 50 million Americans that are living below the poverty line, and that number rises a little bit more every single day.  America was once known as the greatest nation on earth, but now there is decay and economic despair almost everywhere you look.  Yes, money certainly cannot buy happiness, but the lack of it sure can bring a lot of pain.  As the economy continues to decline, the suffering that we see all around us is going to get a lot worse, and that is a very frightening thing to think about.

The following is a half hour documentary produced by the BBC entitled “Poor America”.  Trust me, this is a must watch.  Your heart will break as you hear some American children talk about what they have to do for food….

Wasn’t that video absolutely mind blowing?

Those of us that still live comfortably are often completely unaware of what life is like out on the streets of America at this point.

There are millions upon millions of Americans that have lost all hope and that are living on the very edge of life and death.

And more join the ranks of the hopeless with each passing day.  This upcoming weekend approximately 80,000 people in the state of Michigan will lose their unemployment benefits.

So what are those people going to do after that?

They have already been unable to find work month after month.  Their savings are most certainly gone.  Now the only money they had coming in is going to be eliminated.

Yes, I have written many times about how the U.S. government is absolutely drowning in debt and cannot afford to be giving out so much money.  My point here is to show the other side of the equation.  There are millions upon millions of Americans that are barely hanging on and there are no jobs for them.  The suffering that those families are going through is very real.

Millions of other families are trying to get by on the incomes they pull in from part-time jobs.  According to Gallup, the percentage of Americans that are working part-time jobs but that would like full-time jobs is now higher than it has been at any other time in the last two years.  The number of the “working poor” just continues to increase, but most Americans don’t have much sympathy for them because they “have jobs”.

Well, when you are making 8 bucks an hour it can be incredibly tough to make it from month to month.

Just look at how much it costs to buy the basic things that we need.

Without gasoline, most of us would not even be able to get to our jobs.  The price of gasoline has increased 83 percent since Barack Obama first took office, and it is poised to soar even higher.  Right now, the average price of a gallon of gasoline in the United States is $3.51.  Never before has the average price of gas gone above $3.50 so early in the year.  Many believe that we could set a new all-time record this summer.

But last year was bad enough.  In 2011, the average American family spent over $4,000 on gasoline.

So when you are making just a few hundred dollars per week, it can be a massive struggle just to put gas in your car and food on the table.

The article that I wrote the other day about the decline of Detroit really struck a nerve.  All over America, people can see similar things happening to their own neighborhoods.  People are scared and they want some answers.

Well, the truth is that we should have never allowed tens of thousands of businesses, millions of jobs and trillions of dollars of our national wealth to be shipped out of the country.

Just check out this stunning photo which compares the decline of Detroit to the rise of Shanghai, China.

Do you think that it is just a coincidence that Detroit is falling apart and that cities in China look sparkly and new?

No, the truth is that it is a natural consequence of our foolish economic policies.

There are hundreds of communities all over the country where third world conditions are setting in.  For example, the following is how one bloggerdescribes what life is like in a decaying suburb of Phoenix called Maryville….

Crime and gangs are widespread. Most houses have either fallen into disrepair, or been remade with outside walls sporting spikes and ironwork. Many of the front lawns are now just dirt (or worse, gravel), the pools green and lethal.

Now we stand on the precipice of another major global financial crisis.  Economic conditions in America are going to become significantly worse.  The politicians in Washington D.C. may make sure that the boys and girls on Wall Street are always taken care of, but there will be no bailouts for the large numbers of Americans that are about to lose their jobs and their homes.

If you want an idea of what is coming, just look at what is happening in Greece.  25 percent of the businesses have shut down, one-third of all money has been pulled out of Greek bank accounts and unemployment and poverty are absolutely rampant.

For years, a lot of prominent voices out there were screaming and yelling about the dangers posed by our soaring trade deficits and our soaring budget deficits.

But the American people did not listen.  They just kept sending the same politicians back to Washington D.C. over and over.

As a result, soon millions of those same Americans will find themselves doing things that they never dreamed that they would do just to survive.”

I. CBO: Longest Period of High Unemployment Since Great Depression!

Posted on US News and World Report-By ALEX M. PARKER-On February 16, 2012:

“After three years with unemployment topping 8 percent, the U.S. has seen the longest period of high unemployment since the Great Depression, the Congressional Budget Office noted in a report issued today.

[Dems Tout GOP Payroll Tax Plan as Political Victory.]

And, despite some recent good news on the economic front, the CBO is still predicting that unemployment will remain above 8 percent until 2014. The report also notes that, including those who haven’t sought work in the past four weeks and those who are working part-time but seeking full-time employment, the unemployment rate would be 15 percent.

The CBO made its comments in a report examining the long-term effects of joblessness, and possible policy options to boost employment, including unemployment insurance reforms and job training programs. The report came at the request of Democratic Michigan Rep. Sander Levin, but Republicans quickly jumped on the chance to bash President Obama’s stimulus program, which is also reaching its three-year anniversary today.

“The stimulus is a stark reminder of how the president got the policies he wanted, and how those policies have failed the American people and are making things worse,” said Texas Republican Rep. Jeb Hensarling.

II. Unemployment Tricks: Jobs Claim Made by 'Shrinking' Workforce!

Posted on NewsMax.com-By Andrew Henry-On February 6, 2012:

“Last week, the White House claimed that unemployment dropped for the fifth consecutive month to 8.3 percent — the lowest it has been in nearly three years — after adding 243,000 jobs, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

But financial experts are saying the figures may have been manipulated — and that the significant drop in employment was because of the fact that the federal agency charged with computing key economic data has significantly decreased the number of Americans in the workforce.

“If you hold the workforce participation rate constant over the past year, unemployment would be about 8.9 percent instead of 8.3 percent,” GOP economist Matt McDonald of Hamilton Place Strategies said Monday on CNBC’s Squawk Box. “So it is a weird number that is out there, and I think people have to be looking at that carefully.”

The same Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) report that showed unemployment dropping to 8.3 percent showed total workforce participation — the number of people either working or looking for work — declining by 1.2 million people in one month.

The unemployment rate is determined by dividing the number of unemployed job-seekers by the total labor force. By reducing the number of workers in the overall workforce, the Obama administration can show actual unemployment dropping, when, in fact, improvement has been marginal at best.

Many economists feel the official statistics seriously underestimate how bad the unemployment situation really is. They maintain that the key measure is the number of people who would like to have a job, but can’t find one.

When people retire from the workforce because of the aging of the nation’s population or give up looking for work because of prolonged unemployment, the BLS declares the unemployed person a “discouraged worker.”

At that point, the BLS lists them as “marginally attached to the workforce,” and they no longer are considered to be part of the nation’s working population.

Dropping them off the employment calculations keeps the unemployment rate substantially lower than it would be otherwise and has been key to the improvements in the unemployment numbers during the past year.

Tyler Durden of Zerohedge.com writes: “It appears that the people not in the labor force exploded by an unprecedented record 1.2 million.”

In fact, Zerohedge notes that BLS is breaking records in claims about the shrinking workforce. The most recent unemployment number was based on the assertion that the entire U.S. workforce has shrunk to a 30-year low.

An analysis by Joseph Curl of the Washington Times shows the labor force as a percentage of the available population hit 66 percent in October 1988, and remained there throughout the presidency of George H.W. Bush. It then reached 67 percent or better for 40 straight months during President Bill Clinton’s presidency, and was above 66 percent for virtually all of President George W. Bush’s presidency.

But by the end of President Obama’s first year in office, it had dipped to 64.6 percent, before dipping to just 63.7 percent last month — its lowest point in almost three decades.

One analyst who is stridently critical of the BLS numbers is TrimTabs.com CEO Charles Biderman. His firm uses what he considers a more modern and timely measurement, actual tax receipts to the IRS, to calculate employment.

By his firm’s calculations, the economy added only 44,000 jobs in January, not even enough to keep the unemployment rate from growing.

The BLS numbers “are just guesses,” Biderman tells Newsmax. “I don’t know whether they’re politically motivated or not.”

The White House is doing “cartwheels” over the positive jobs numbers being promulgated from the BLS, the Christian Science Monitor says.

“These numbers will go up and down in the coming months, and there’s still far too many Americans who need a job or need a job that pays better than the one they have now,” President Obama said. “But the economy is growing stronger.”

BLS spokesman Gary Steinberg tells Newsmax that the bureau publishes its methodologies for calculating the unemployment rate online. While its tweaks its various formulas to keep them up to date, he states there has been no major change in how the rate is calculated in over a decade.

“The definitions have not changed . . . if someone is not actively looking for work for the four weeks preceding the reference week, they’re not in the labor force,” he says. “That was true years ago, and it’s true today.”

To: Rabbi Dr. Katherine H.

My name is Bob Casper and I am a tea party patriot and a member of the California Tea Party. First things first welcome aboard, and how would you like us to address you (Dr Katherine, Rabbi, or...)  and thank you for assuming the California State Tea Party Directorship.

What I would like to know what are your view points and key goals of this establishment. My one and only goal is to remove President Obama from office. Another term and he will have completely destroyed the United States of America. The problem at hand is not Newt, Rick, Mitt, or Ron Paul. Any of them will suite our purpose in the end. It will not be perfect, but it will be light years a head of where we are today. So no more bad mouthing the GOP candidates. We need to up hold them all and only focus of the conservative advancement we are seeking in this years election, with the primary being the eviction of Barrack Obama out of the White House along with all of his socialist czars.

The second and highly necessary objective is to take over the U.S. Senate. We need to get rid of Harry Reid as the majority leader! We need all three branches if we hope to turn this mess around. We need to downsize government, bring back more and more social programs back into the States, and let them govern through these progresses at the State level and let the people at the State level control the fraud and abusing going on.

Let me get one thing very straight! Social Security and Medicare are not welfare or entitlement programs. They were pay by the people to off set retirement and medical cost as they age. While they were never intended to defer or offset all of the costs, they were to be there to ease the process of retirement when income is fixed and unexpected bill would come in. The people paid for this insurance policies to get through the tough time. Both of these programs were to be put in trust funds and they were not! The Federal Government stole this money from the tax payers and never returned. Now the federal government is allowing illegal aliens to steal from it also.

Welfare and food stamps are entitlement programs, the Federal Government was not put in place to provide these entitlements. The States and the communities and churches were put in place to help these people through their charitable contributions. This was a help hand up not a hand out. In the bible the Apostle Paul spokes about that each one should be responsible for them self and work for pay; unless they had physical or mental disabilities that would prevent them from working. It was the communities, churches, and charitable organization were there to provide for these individuals.

So if, I may address you as Katherine, are these your objectives, to get the Country back to this type of governing?

Warm regards,

Bob Casper
