Lizards and Prairie Chickens at Front Row of Obama Press Conference

Why were lizards and prairie chickens applauding so loudly at the Obama's press conference? 

When Obama speaks, Butch Jackson is like a kid in a candy store, "Everybody tells me how smart Obama is. If that is true, I would assume he knows what he is doing. If he does know, he must know that we folks are just getting dumber and dumber because it would take a complete idiot to accept his solutions to this country's problems. Take his press conference today; he says that he and Old Joe Biden are in agreement with Republicans on a $1 Trillion reduction in government spending. He gives no details of course except to say that a considerable amount will come from Defense spending. The first thing any dummy would ask, even though no reporter did, is 'when would these cuts be made?’ This gets at Obama's old trick of spreading his cuts over long periods (usually starting when he is out of office) and  many times extending over10 years.  And yet we are in our third year of running deficits of $1.7 Billion annually. That would be each and every year for those of you in Mr. Calm. We need cuts of at least $1.7 Trillion over the next 12 months not 12 years."

"Next the genius in chief then rants about Republicans fighting against a balanced approach of increased revenues to go with spending cuts. He would increase revenues by eliminating corporate manufacturing tax credits on, of all things, oil companies who would just turn around and raise gasoline prices resulting in a tax on all of us. And it is peanuts. $21 Billion over 10 years or $2 Billion a year against a $1.7 Trillion deficit. That is 1/10 of 1% of the cuts that need to be made.  And yet consumers will feel it at the pump.”

“But there is more. He wants to eliminate the tax credit THAT HE GAVE CORPORATE JET BUYERS IN HIS SIMULUS PACKAGE IN 2009. You heard me. Just a few months after lawmakers scolded auto executives for flying to Washington in private jets, Congress approved a tax break in the stimulus package to help businesses buy their own planes. The aviation industry, which was cutting jobs as it suffered from declining shipments and canceled orders received an economic-stimulus bill signed by President Barack Obama to persuade more companies to buy planes and snap a slump in general aviation that began in his first year in office. 'This is exactly the type of financial incentive that should be included in a stimulus bill,' said Rep. Todd Tiahrt, R-Kan. in an interview. His state lost at least 6,900 jobs at Cessna and Hawker Beechcraft, both based in Wichita in the recession. I guess they don't need stimulating anymore. And of course when these tax breaks go away the sale of jets will suffer, jobs will be lost, and the government will not receive any additional taxes which was Obama's dumb idea in the first place. This will result in a whopping 0% reduction in the $1.7 Trillion deficit. Folks, you could not make this stuff up!"

"And Obama called a press conference to try to sell idiots on eliminating these two tax credits? The answer is NO. Obama used these to get idiots to believe that Republicans are protectors of Big Oil and Big Fat Rich Guys who fly Big Fat Corporate Jets (like he and Michelle do) while Mr. Wonderful is looking out after the folks helping them with college loans and keeping their food from being  poisoned by farmers and food manufacturers."  SIDE NOTE:  What would you think if a stranger came to town and told you for only a small tax on everything you do that he would protect your AIR?  That's what the Feds do--big time.

Billy Roy Mitchum, un-official Chairman of The Hubbard City Café located West of the Intersection (Red Light) on Magnolia Avenue (Main Street) had waited as long as he could, "That brings up my favorite. Obama got a question about the National Labor Relations Board blocking Boeing's rights to build a plant in the Carolinas because they are a right to work state.   Obama gave one of this typical non-answers,'he was all for reigning in government regulations as long as he was able to fulfill his obligation to protect our food, water, and air'. What a guy? In realty Obama's Interior Department has cost Californians alone thousands of jobs while idling a quarter of a million acres of farmland turning them into a dust bowl. The feds have diverted 200 billion gallons of water to the Pacific Ocean from California's Central Valley. Why? To protect the Delta smelt. A stinking fish. Additionally, it has put thousands of ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS in the Central Valley out of work placing severe welfare issues on local communities. This is a perfect example of what happens when the Federal Government has two corrupted programs collide (Not enforcing Immigration Laws and over-regulating under the banner of protecting the environment) ."

"Meanwhile, Texas and New Mexico are fighting the same Interior Department who is trying to add the sagebrush lizard and the prairie chicken to the Endangered Species List. Interior wants to prevent the development of oil and gas production which they claim would disrupt the reproduction (sex lives) of such animals. The American Petroleum Institute estimates that the Interior Department’s plan to put more areas of the Outer Continental Shelf off limits will costs 75,000 jobs and $91 Billion in government revenue. Now what does any of this have to do with our air, food, and water? Under the banner of protecting the environment the looters enable Algore and Obama's Green Scam. That's what it is about. I aint that smart and if I can see through it, what is wrong with the folks that put these jerks in office? I’d like to stuff a lizard or prairie chicken where the sun don’t shine up some of these bureaucrats."

Think about it,

Jim
