Dear Jim Bob,

Michelle Obama seems to be popping up every day in a different media forum talking about how she is changing the way America eats.  Jim Bob, is Michelle going to come get my Big Mac and take it away forever.  Can the government take over my menu Jim Bob?  What’s going on?

Dear Rollie,

This is going to be hard to believe but my sources in Washington DC insist that its true.  Michelle has been secretly installed by her husband as the “Junk Food Czar” in the same way he has created other stealth regulators that dip daily into the private lives of Americans and nibble away at free choices.  Insiders call Mrs. Obama the queen of the “Junk Food Fairies”.   She is actively recruiting thousands of new IRS inspectors, each of whom will be designated as a federal Junk Food Fairy.  Soon, this army of Junk Food Fairies will be dispatched under the authority of Obamacare to peer into the refrigerators of all Americans.

To understand this new initiative you have to think of the Tooth Fairy, who comes in the night to retrieve freshly extracted teeth from beneath the pillows of sleeping children.  The Tooth Fairy leaves varying amounts of money behind as she slips away with the fresh tooth.  The Federal Junk Food Fairies will operate like the Tooth Fairy except they will invade people’s refrigerators while they sleep and conduct an inventory of what’s kept inside.  If the Junk Food Fairy finds food with excessive fat content they will take the food away, like the tooth fairy takes a tooth.  However, the Junk Food Fairy will not leave any money behind – They will leave a document called a “Fat Ticket”!

The Fat Ticket will impose a punitive tax restriction on the family found to be eating unhealthy food.  The penalty will be to deny the fined family the right to claim home mortgage interest as an itemized deduction on their personal income tax returns for that current tax year.  The idea is that the offending food was found in a refrigerator located in a home owned by people who probably acquired  the unhealthy food.  Since Michelle Obama wants to “hit people where they live”, the tax deduction restriction seems to be a logical strategy.

Evidently, the Junk Food Fairies will only be tasked to  invade and inspect  the refrigerators of people earning  $200,000 or more each year, who also own their own homes.   In this way, the Obama’s primary goal of redistributing prosperity will be advanced significantly.

Without Obamacare, the Junk Food Fairy initiative would not have been possible.  Other Federal Fairy programs are being considered to advance the Obama agenda, which has been secretly designated as the “War on Achievement”.

Love,

The Tucson shooting of a member of Congress has provoked responses and statements from politicians that are quite disturbing, yet fascinating.  The knee jerk response from the left promoting the idea that the shooter in Tucson was motivated,  inspired and provoked to action by the likes of Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh and other conservative commentators is a theory that is condemned by the right and supported by the left.  The most ardent supporters of this theory appear to be liberal members of Congress and their lock-step liberal counterparts in the media.  The question is this:  What has produced the thought processes of these people that led them to concoct this theory?

The first thing to recognize in evaluating this phenomenon is that the people who are proclaiming this theory actually believe it.  This is not purely an instance of political hacks trying to turn people against conservatives.  They really believe that conservatives and the public expression of conservative principles have the power and potential to send people into the streets to assassinate elected officials.   They sincerely believe that conservatives are “evil”.  It is here we find the issue that has lit the fire of fear in these people to the extent that they are demanding the elimination of free speech for anyone who has an effective conservative voice.

One thing members of Congress have traditionally done is to insulate themselves from real life that the rest of us have to live and deal with as a result of their legislative behavior.  You see this in the fact that Congress routinely exempts its members from the laws they pass regulating the lives of other Americans.  In their self-created cocoon of denial they live with their perks and only go home to be vulnerable to their constituents during elections and holidays.  The remainder of the time they shut themselves up in an environment designed to insulate them from the realities of the bizarre world they are creating.  By that, I mean that they ignore, discount and belittle the opinions of other Americans about what is important, such as securing our borders, opposing government healthcare, objecting to Cap and Trade legislation, and condemning off-the-chart spending. They are able to comfortably stay in an insulated world of diminished reality until something like the event in Tucson happens.  They have interpreted the horror personally and are thinking:  “That could have been ME!

The minds of the people on the left who have raised this theory of conservative influence on potential assassins have suddenly focused their minds on just how mad their constituents might be about the way they have been behaving.   The tragedy in Arizona has come on the heels of the earth-shaking November election when the American people sent a very powerful message of disapproval of all things Congress!  In the minds of those on the left it is a logical progression to believe this electoral rejection (which was caused by conservatives) has now escalated to the level of political assassination!  In other words, the shooting in Arizona has (in their minds) become visible proof of just how upset the American people are with them and they are terrified for their own safety (political and otherwise).  In other words they are beginning to really fear the people they represent.  This Tucson tragedy will no doubt produce a sharp reduction in the “town meeting” format all across America.

The left views conservatism as an evil force because it has the potential to disrupt the political cocoon they have created for themselves and force them to become accountable for their political elitism.  In their minds, the recent election and the shooting in Arizona are of the same cloth.  Both events are seen by the left as extreme forms of rejection for their legislative behavior and they see conservatism as the foundational cause of that rejection.  Therefore, the solution to this threat is to throttle the voices of those who influence and promote conservative thought.  Who are the two most high-profile conservative voices?  You guessed it – Palin and Limbaugh!  Therefore, the cause of their fear and the cause of the shooting in Arizona must be Palin and Limbaugh and their clones.  The solution of the left is to smear them both and influence people to accept the premise that conservatism is evil.

They are obviously willing to trample the Constitution in the process.

Let’s say you have $500 that you want to loan to someone at a reasonable rate of interest.  Let’s say you have narrowed your loan candidates down to two possibilities.  The first possibility is to loan the money to a member of your own family.  You realize the interest rate might be a little lower but you trust your family member to honor the loan and repay it.

Your second possibility is to loan the money to a rich person across town who seems to have more money than they need and they just choose to borrow money to maintain a certain standard of living.  Your realize the rich person on the other side of town is a spendthrift, but they have great references and you have a lot of faith in their ability to survive difficulty and keep on trucking.

Then, on the brink of pulling the trigger of making the loan to the rich guy you learn some facts about the behavior of the the person:

1.  The rich person has recently embarked on an incredible spending spree and has done it on borrowed money.  As a matter of fact you learn that almost 50% of every dollar they spend is borrowed from other people, like you!

2.  The rich person has been totally ignoring warnings from its lenders that the borrowed money they are spending is toxic and deadly to their long term survival.  Yet, the person continues to spend in an irresponsible rush to disaster.

Armed with these new facts you decide that you don’t want to loan your $500 to the irresponsible rich person and elect to loan your money instead to your family member, who is close to home and behaves more responsibly than the rich lunatic across town.

About a year later you learn that the rich person has exhausted its resources to obtain loans and is going bankrupt.  All the people who had loaned money to the rich person in previous years have evaporated.

What’s the meaning of this?

1.  The United States of America is the rich person across town behaving like a lunatic.

2. You represent the foreign investors who are financing the spending spree of the lunatic and have little or no hope of being repaid the $12,000,000,000,000 of debt accumulated by the lunatic.

Here’s the question:  What happens when the lunatic can no longer borrow money to to pay its bills?

Nobody seems to want to know the answer to that question and that is our national crisis.

I posted the video link below of New Jersey Governor Christi absolutely demolishing a liberal reporter at a news conference.  The reporter worked for a NJ paper called the Star Ledger.  Evidently, that paper has alleged a copyright claim on the video and YouTube has pulled it!  The collusion between YouTube and the paper on this issue is probably another discussion to have, but the fact that the video was pulled proves how effective conservatives can be when they just throw political correctness out the window and tell the truth.  Fortunately, someone got the video up at another site and the link below still has it.

Dear Jim Bob,

I just heard that the United Nations is going to investigate what they describe as  the US Housing Crisis.  What’s this about Jim Bob?

Curious in Cleveland

Dear Curious,

I looked into this and discovered you are correct!  Evidently the UN (located in New York City) is dispatching a person they identified as Raquel Rolnik, the “UN Special Rapporteur on Adequate Housing” to investigate the housing situation in New York City and other American cities.

I learned that Ms. Rolnik is an architect from Brazil and made her name there as an Urban Planner.  I am sharing a video at the end of this post wherein Ms Rolnik expresses her opinion that affordable housing is a right.  When you see Ms. Rolnik all of this will become very clear to you. 

I also learned that one of the groups helping Ms. Rolnik with her NYC investigation is an outfit called FUREE (Families United For Racial and Economic Equality).  If you’ve never heard of FUREE, just think of them as a little ACORN.  One of the main concerns of FUREE is combating something called “gentrification.”   Now, what is gentrification you ask?  I’ll make it easy for you.  Have you ever seen a slum area that is blighted, riddled with crime and generally unsafe?  Then, have you ever seen a bunch of business people come in and buy up all that dangerous real estate and clean up the area?  They tear down the worst, repair the salvagable parts and make the area nice and safe --  to the extent that people who actually work move back into the area and it once again becomes a thriving community. 

We used to call this process Urban Renewal and it was considered a good thing.  Today, it is called “gentrification” and is considered evil!  Why?  Because when an area undergoes ‘gentrification’ property values go up and rents increase.  The destitute, unemployed people who formerly lived in the area can no longer afford to live there and are displaced.

Since the UN Special Rapporteur, Ms. Rolnik considers affordable housing a “right”, and is being led around by the FUREE group, we will no doubt hear more about this in the days ahead.  The big question is this:  What will the UN do when it finishes their investigation?  My guess is that they will send a big report to President Obama and his ACORN roots/genes will come to life in sympathy.  A logical Obama solution will be to introduce some good legislation that will force developers and others who produce “gentrification” to rent their properties at depressed rates to accomodate the rights of the displaced. 

HEY!  Isn’t this the same approach that caused the home loan mortgage crisis that tanked our economy?  I just love liberals, don’t you?

Dear Jim Bob,

I know the Democrats want to pass a big carbon tax bill to help stop global warming.  Is that the best strategy Jim Bob?

Gullible in New Jersey

Dear Gullible,

As you know, most Americans go to sleep each night in total fear of the Global Warming Threat.  It’s real important that we do what has to be done to stop this beast in its tracks!  Hardly a minute of my own life goes by that I am not fretting and wringing my hands over the threat of climate change.  I keep a thermometer with me at all times to monitor hourly changes as they occur.  Yesterday, for example, the high temperature was 1 degree higher than it was the day before.  I am terrified of this trend.

Fortunately, I recently read what I believe to be the most effective idea to halt the global warming threat.  It was published by the United Nations, so it must be the right approach.  Essentially, they recommend that human beings stop reproducing themselves!  Since Global Warming is caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and human beings exhale carbon dioxide in the course of breathing, the simple solution to Global Warming is to eliminate human beings from the equation.  What a simple solution.  Only the United Nations could come up with such a brilliant idea.

Roger Martin, chairman of the Optimum Population Trust at the LSE, said: “It’s always been obvious that total emissions depend on the number of emitters as well as their individual emissions – the carbon tonnage can’t shoot down as we want, while the population keeps shooting up.”

Amazingly, the Democrat Socialized Medicine Act of 2009 will work well with the new UN strategy.  As healthcare for the elderly is carefully rationed and their numbers are in accelerated decline, the population will be decreased significantly.  No doubt increasing the number of abortions will also help reduce the population in the future.  I mean, abortion on demand since the 1970’s has already spared us the extra carbon emissions of almost 50,000,000 people who don’t exist today.  How wonderful is that?

So, the Global Warming threat will be unexpectedly reduced under the Obama/Democrat health strategies.  The next step is obviously to copy the China policy of government enforced family size limits.

Don’t you just love this?  Here’s a UTUBE CLip by Glen Beck on the Global Warming hoax:

Dear Jim Bob,

I read on the news that some liberal chewed some guys finger off at a healthcare promotion event.  Why do liberals eat fingers Jim Bob?

Curious in California

Dear Curious,

Well, I looked into this and what you say actually happened in California!  A bunch of Moveon.org supporters got together for a public rally to support ObamaCare and one of them got involved with a man who didn’t share their favorable opinion of the legislation.  Seems like there  were about 100 ObamaCare liberals outside on the street carrying signs in support of socialized medicine government control of Doctors. Across the street there was a small group of Americans who did not agree with the liberals position.  Both groups started yelling things at each other.  One of the liberals came across the street and confronted a 65 year old man who was part of the opposition group.  He started calling the old guy a lot of names and being very aggressive.  The old guy popped the liberal in the nose!  Unfortunately, the liberal went nuts and attacked the old guy physically.  Somewhere in the conflict, the liberal bit off one of the old guy’s fingers!

What the news media has not reported about this is that the severed finger was subsequently stolen from the scene by the Moveon.org people.  What did they do with it?  They had it rigged up with a USB port!  Now all they have to do is plug the old guy’s finger into any PC and they can control his mind.  I was able to get a picture of the finger which shows the USB port mounted into the finger in question.  Here it is:

This raises lots of questions.  Senators Jay Rockefeller and Olympia Snow have introduced a bill to give Obama control over the internet in the event of a cyber-attack.  People are worried about who will determine what constitutes a cyber-attack and how that will further degrade our freedom.  This liberal, finger chewing/USB incident may be a prototype of what Obama and liberal might want to do.  What if they can require everyone to donate one of their fingers to the government to receive the USB attachment?  I wonder if the news media would report that?  Would media members give up one of THEIR fingers?

Dear Jim Bob,

I just heard an ad on the radio that Obama and the Democrat’s created. It said we are getting what we voted for. I don’t remember Obama saying anything about Nationalizing the banks, the car industry and the health industry during the election. What are they saying Jim Bob?

Carl Marxalot

Portland, Oregon

Dear Carl,

What’s going on right now with these Democrat Ads? Well, it’s like this Carl. When Obama and the Democrats were running in 2008, they were purposely trying to make people believe they are like the rest of us who work and pay taxes and care about our country. Of course, the truth is they are not like the rest of us, but they couldn’t admit it during the election. They would have lost.

The Obama domestic agenda has now unfolded in plain view of anyone who cares to recognize it and it’s pretty ugly. As people’s eyes are opening to Mr. Obama’s true character and intent, opposition is beginning to form and the last thing the Democrats want is an honest debate about anything they want to do. So, they are now running attack ads against YOU! After all, they say, YOU voted for change and we’re delivering it! Anyone who doesn’t like it is probably a radical- right -wing -nut -conspiracy –community -organizer. So, Carl, Americans are the problem, not the congress or the programs this bunch of hacks is trying to pass.

This health care thing is a perfect example of how dangerous they are. Let’s compare our healthcare system (now) to a person who has discovered they have a non-malignant polyp in their colon. The simple solution is a minor out-patient procedure that just snips the polyp away and the patient goes home to live a great life. What if that same person went in to their Doctor and was told that they would get rid of the polyp by removing the entire colon and routing it outside the body into a bag you would excrete into the rest of your life. In addition, they would also be amputating your left leg in the event it might be related to the polyp, although they can’t prove it. To make sure everything is done to fix your polyp problem they are also going to give you a heart and liver transplant at the same time.

Our current healthcare system has some problems. Like the polyp described above. What Obama is giving us with his “reform” is the heart and liver transplant, the leg amputation and the colon removal all in one nice package. And he doesn’t want us to discuss it. Just lay down and take it like a good American Carl. After all , you voted for change.

Dear Jim Bob,

I’ve been reading about this Democrat healthcare law they are trying to pass. Is it true that old people are going to be encouraged to give up and die? I’m 70 years old. Do Obama and the Democrats want me to die Jim Bob? If so, why?

Eileen Enoughisenough

Elgin, Alabama

Dear Eileen,

Lots of information is now coming out about what’s actually in the new Socialized Medicine Bill the Democrats want for all of us, but they will be exempt from participating in themselves. One of the provisions of this new plan requires anyone on Medicare to sit down every five years to be counseled about whether it’s a good idea for them to keep on breathing. Evidently these government “Death Advisors” will be trying to thin out the population of older people.

About two years ago I told a group of people that I believed government mandated euthanasia was in America’s future. Many in the group rolled their eyes and shook their head as if such an idea was ridiculous. Well, golly…here it is right on our doorstep wrapped up in a package by the same, compassionate Democrat party Americans voted into power last November. American’s wanted change and brother are they getting change!

As far as why the Democrats might want you dead Eileen, think about this: For the past 15 years people have been demanding that some kind of “fix” be created to solve the Social Security problem. What is that problem you ask? It’s that when all the baby boomers retire there will be far more people “getting” than there are people giving (those who actually pay taxes) to support them. Are you beginning to get the picture of why “Death Counseling” for the elderly might be a priority item on the Democrat agenda? If they can reduce the number of elderly people getting benefits they might be able to “fix” social security!

It’s a short trip from “Death Counseling” to mandated euthanasia. That’s when, some bureaucrat will be empowered to rule that living 75 years is probably enough for anybody. I’m sure it will be called something like prohibiting existence beyond the “Optimal Beneficial Longevity Standard (OBLS)”. When you exceed the OBLS you will be picked up in a government car and taken to the “Federal Euthanasia Center”. Of course, the Congress will be exempt from this requirement, just as they exempt themselves from many other laws they put into effect.

Obama World is not pretty.
