How's It Going Now?

I've had a difficult time writing anything lately.  Why?  Well, take a look at some of my posts from last spring.  A couple of times I wrote about how we, the average American, are being overwhelmed.  So much is being thrown at us, that we can't respond.  It is impossible to see everything being thrown our way, much less stop much of it.  And that is part of the plan - overwhelm and collapse the system.  To try to get back into the habit of writing, I decided to read my old posts and write about what has happened since they were written.

First of all, Obamacare.  Of course, you know it passed.  One result of its passage was the backlash by the voters.  As I wrote, more than 60% of Americans did not want the legislation.  After it was signed into law by the president, more than 65% want it repealed.  This became a huge issue in the November 2010 election.  As a result, the Republicans won control of the House of Representatives, narrowed the Democrat's majority in the Senate, and basically received a mandate from the voters to rein in the out of control progressive takeover of our lives.  Last night, Congress passed a budget plan that defunds the plan.  It will be brought up on the floor of the Senate next week, requiring Senators to go on the record supporting or opposing the legislation.

After the unexpected backlash against the healthcare takeover, the Democratic controlled House and Senate basically shut down.  They passed no more significant legislation for the rest of the year including no budget for 2011, which should have been passed before October 1, 2010.  Doing so would have put them on record for more spending, more taxes, and more loss of individual freedom for average Americans.  So the Democrats wisely gave up on governing and went into damage control mode.  They still lost a historic number of seats in the House and Senate in November.  The good news is that they had no stomach for forcing through their Cap and Tax legislation to save the planet from Global Warming  Climate Change  Human Caused Global Climate Variation.  The idea is not completely dead.  The president has said that he will pursue the matter through regulations by the EPA, bypassing the legislative branch altogether.  One of the most intricate spiderwebs of corruption to come out of research of the Cap and Tax legislation was the involvement in and potential  profit to, the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX) by backers and investors like Goldman Sachs, Bill Ayers and Barack Obama (through the Joyce Foundation) and Al Gore.  Shortly after the story was broken by the Canadian Free Press, controlling interest in the CCX was sold to International Climate Exchange (ICE) in Atlanta.  Major investors in ICE include Goldman Sachs, Exxon Mobil, and British Petroleum.  While news on the issue has been quiet lately, a quick internet search (not using Google anymore, but that's for another post), CCX is still working towards its agenda, but mainly in Europe.  In November of 2010, ICE announced that it was suspending its trading of emissions credits in the United States through the CCX.    While Americans won the Cap and Tax battle, the Progressives have been able to bring the President's promise of "energy costs will necessarily skyrocket" to fruition through regulation of the domestic oil industry by the Department of the Interior.  I'll save the details on that for tomorrow's post.

And on the climate change front, it was announced yesterday, that the world just experienced its coolest March since 1994.  Cool not just because the NCAA's Final Four included both Butler and Virginia Commonwealth University, but because the temperature was cooler.

I'll finish up this one with a little more good news.   A 9.1 magnitude earthquake in Japan which caused a massive tsunami was followed by several major aftershocks in the following weeks, including a 7.4 magnitude shock last week.  In spite of these shocks and an increase in the population of military personnel on the island, Guam has yet to capsize, as Georgia congressman Hank Johnson worried.


Last I heard the island was still above water. Whew, another catastrophe averted!   And the obviously public school educated (again the topic of a future post) voters of Georgia's 3rd district once again elected the honorable Congressman Johnson to another term.  Sigh, still  lots of work to be done in the next election and not just in Georgia.  In my own state of Colorado, Senator Bennett was also re-elected.  I'm sure voter fraud had nothing to do with his slim victory.  The newly elected Republican Colorado Secretary of State has learned that at least 5,000 voters in the 2010 election were not eligible voters, and 10,000 registered voters in the state were not eligible.  No information was available for the 2008 election, when the governor, both state legislative houses, and the president all went to the Democratic party in a traditionally Republican state. 

Wow, and that's just a couple of issues.  More to come.
