The story going around the Cafe is that the Obama administration is helping in many ways not imagined until now. Joe Borger Hurd, local farmer and grain kingpin second only to maybe Billie Sol Estes, reports that a cousin rancher from Colorado says they are scratching their heads in that state. Joe B. says, "For any Yankees in the blogosphere who don't know cattle guards are horizontal steel rails placed at fence openings, in dug-out places in the roads adjacent to highways (sometimes across highways), to prevent cattle from crossing over that area. For some reason the cattle will not step on the 'guards', probably because they fear getting their feet caught between the rails."
"A few months ago, President Obama received a report that there were over 100,000 cattle guards in Colorado. Because Colorado ranchers had protested his proposed changes in grazing policies, he decided to punish them by ordering the Secretary of the Interior to fire half of the guards immediately."
"Before the Interior Secretary could respond and presumably straighten him out, Vice-President, Crazy Joe Biden, intervened with a request that before any guards were fired, they be given six months of retraining. Now we understand Pelosi and Reid are ripped because they think the whole guard thing is the perfect type of program that should be rammed through by the Legislature to insure that all illegals are exempt from any loss of employment."
Meanwhile, Billy Roy Mitchum is fearful that Country and Western music is getting so popular that he fears a government takeover. Some months ago this fear led him to start following the Chryler takeover to see what he could learn, just in case. He gave a more than full report on his findings this week, "Unbelievable! This could be a scandal that makes Nixon's Watergate or Clinton 's Monica Lewinsky affair look like Little League Games. Roll the clock back to the weeks just before Chrysler declared bankruptcy. Chrysler, like GM, was in really bad financial trouble and our federal government 'graciously' offered to 'buy the company' and keep them out of bankruptcy and 'save jobs'. Chrysler was, in the words of Obama and his crowd, 'Too big to fail', same story with GM, remember."
"Well the feds organized their 'Automotive Task Force' to fix Chrysler and GM. Obama, in an act that is 110% unconstitutional, appointed a guy named Steve Rattner to be the White House's official Car Czar — literally. Initially, the national media reported that Chrysler had made a list of dealerships to be closed as a big cost cutting measure. That turned out not to be true. The Washington Examiner, Newsmax, Fox New and a host of other somewhat honest news agencies discovered that the list of dealerships was put together by the 'Automotive Task Force' headed by no one other than Mr. Steve Rattner. Now the plot thickens. Actually there's a very interesting pattern as to who was closed down. Of the 789 dealerships closed by the federal government, 788 had donated money exclusively to Republican political causes, while contributing nothing to Democratic political causes. The only 'Democratic' dealership on the list was found to have donated to Hillary and John Edwards' campaigns. Steve Rattner is the guy who put the list together."
By now Butch Jackson head had slammed the table as he dosed off and splashed coffee profusely on everyone at his table.
BM continued, "Well it gets sleazier because Rattner happens to be married to a Maureen White. Maureen happens to be the former national finance chairman of the Democratic National Committee. As such, she has access to campaign donation records from everyone in the nation, Republican or Democrat. Well, Obama's Car Czar, Steve Rattner, resigned on July 13."
"By the way, Rattner is under investigation for a multi-million dollar pay-to-play investment bank scandal in New York. Uh-oh! Obama has 32 personally appointed 'czars' who answer to no one but him, all of whom are acting without any Constitutional authority. This Obama team of hit men is bigger than anything Al Capone ever had."
Butch had regained consciousness by now, "So what, BM?"
"So what?" bellowed BM. "Barry could appoint a Country and Western Czar at any moment. That Czar could get the people at the Drug Store to pick and choose which bars should be closed right here in Hill County, Texas. Hell, we might wind up with nothing but Hip Hop or something like that."

Maxine Calls for Taxpayer Takeover
Mom, with the help of her loyal son, completed her Federal Tax Return this weekend, and for the first time in her adult life, put a big Zero on the bottom line. Yep, Mom owes no taxes this year what with low interest rates on savings and such. Interestingly she wasn't all that happy about joining the ranks of those who don't pay taxes. "I think it is time for taxpayers to take a play out of the Liberals playbook and propose COMPREHENSIVE VOTER REFORM," launched Mom's rare opening statement on the floor of the Hubbard City Cafe.
"Here is my idea", she proceeded in rare form. "The Liberals have their Comprehensive Health Care Law which basically puts the Federal Government in charge of determining who gets what medical care, at what price, and who pays for it. Basically it is just another takeover program to transfer hard earned assets from taxpayers to non-taxpayers. They call it redistribution as if we don't know what they are doing."
"Now they want to pass Comprehensive Energy Reform to boost Algore and his pals clean energy investments while passing a massive tax increase on everyone else. Then, of course, they will follow with Comprehensive Immigration Reform to try to put 15-30 million illegals on the entitlement roles to buy votes to make up for all the votes Obama is losing now that the silly voters understand his Socialist takeover plans. In fact "Comprehensive Reform" appears to be a code term for TAKEOVER."
"Enough of my negativity. Let me make a positive suggestion. Why don't we pass COMPREHENSIVE VOTER REFORM? It would be simple and could be described on one page. Basically a voter gets one vote for every one dollar paid in taxes. You pay $10,000 and you get 10,000 votes. You pay no taxes, you get no votes. Why should you get a vote on how our government should spend our money if you don't contribute to the process. In fact, as I understand it, we are very close to having more freeloaders paying no taxes than taxpayers."
Butch was the first to respond, "Gosh, sounds awfully business like. People with no stock in Microsoft don't get the same voting power as Bill Gates, do they? Imagine what kind of company Berkshire Hathaway would be if Warren Buffett just got one vote. Those companies would probably be run by bureaucrats, losing tons of money, producing lousy products, and running huge deficits. In fact if they could print their own money they would be just like the Federal Government now that I think of it. But, Maxine, wouldn't this be a TAKEOVER?"
"Damned right it would. It would be a TAXPAYER TAKEOVER, you got problems with that, Butch," Mom came back uncharacteristically.
"No Mam," muttered Butch.
Billy Roy Michum usually reflects back to our founders on topics like these. "When you think really deep about it, it gets to the 'Taxation and Representation' thing that the first Tea Party was all about. Almost half of the people in the country are represented and not taxed today. The other half pay all the taxes and are 'under-represented'. What the Hell is that all about?"
Well, needless to say Maxine got her name written on the corner of the menu board in big blue letters for a "blue ribbon idea of some significant size".
Meanwhile Scott Riddle's family celebrated Easter with their newest edition, one year old Cooper. Cooper had his picture taken as the 5th generation representative with his Great Grandmother Pat, and then to top it off, he also had 5th generation attendees on the side of his Great Granddad Scott. He had his 93 year old Great Great Aunt and his 95 year old Great Great Grandmother at the event. With 40% of today's kids born out of wedlock, Cooper has a huge head start in this world with generations of family support.

P. S. I asked Great Great Grandmom Neuman if she was going to nap after lunch, and she said, "Nope, I don't nap. I'm too busy." My reply, "You go girl."
"Here is my idea", she proceeded in rare form.

Billy Roy Has a Tough Day While Socialists Are On the March
Billy Roy was pretty hot when he asked the folks at the Cafe, "Who pissed off the Drug Store Liberals and the Dairy Queen Moderates this time? I stopped for my monthly supply of Viagra and the commie druggist handed me a Popsicle stick and some duct tape. I stopped by the Dairy Queen for my weekly hot fudge, Oreo, and double chocolate blizzard with a cherry twist and happened to mention the Viagra thing. The fence sitting compromisers told me a simple band aid would probably be overkill for such a small problem. That kind of talk just ain't right. Tough day, so far."
Scott Riddle, locally famous cattleman and insurance tycoon who protects Hubbard from any Communist attacks coming from the west side of town doesn't take to those kind of pranks, "Prior to Obama the drug store folks were fairly civil and our federal government had little to no direct control or ownership of our businesses (not even the Clintons). That would be like zero. Today's estimate is that the Obama has taken control of the Finance Industry with TARP, Stimulus, and his Czar. Current proposed legislation written by the retiring Senator Chris Dodd is to establish a permanent TARP to let the Administration take over anyone they choose at anytime simply by declaring them 'too large to fail'. Obama prostituted the TARP slush fund to take over Chrysler and GM. He takes over Health Care last week and sneaks the Student College Loan Program into the legislation doubling his fun. (Double in that he picked up $61B bullshit savings for his Health Care Plan while adding another private sector business to his collection). Estimates are that this gives Obama around 50% of the US Economy under his direct control. And folks wonder why any one with any degree of courage calls Obama at least a Socialist if not worse."
Billy Roy Mitchum, locally famous C&W entertainer who now seems to have a semi-direct correspondence relationship with none other than President Obama, himself, turned to the Cafe's keeper of facts, numbers, and other items foreign to most Liberals and non-literates, Butch Jackson, "Butch, does that 50% number hold water?"
"At least," sighed Butch, "It ain't pretty. Think of the financial impact with the government in control of half of our economy. The CBO forecasted that Health Care would cost $180B in the first 10 years and would be deficit positive in the second ten years. These are the people who predicted Medicare would cost tax payers $12B by 1990. The true costs was $107B by 1990, so they missed it by a factor of 8. Smart folks think the Health Care Plan will cost a minimum of $3T in the first 10 years and go up from there."
Butch was on a roll, "The deficit, which was about 3% of GDP in President George Bush’s final year, is now exceeding 10%. (All numbers rounded and all data taken from the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office.) Government debt has gone from 40% of GDP when Bush left the White House to 63% and will hit 90% by 2020. That’s the level at which new studies show that debt begins to reduce growth and jobs."
"How do we pay for this?" snorted BM.
Scott came back in, " Smart money around the poker table says we take the next Socialist step toward the bankrupted Europeans and add a VAT (Value Added Tax). Obama's hand picked bi-partisan 'Deficit Reduction Task Force' will recommend this. It is like a sales tax except hidden from the purchaser unlike a sales tax. In Europe they promised to reduce, or even eliminate, income taxes if the passed VATs. Lied like dogs, England is now 19% VAT tax and still has a 50% income tax. Which reminds me with the Health Care taxes and letting Bush's tax cuts expire our marginal tax rate will go to 44% putting goofy places like California marginals at near 60%. This will kick the economic recovery right between the legs."
"Let's not forget that the Dems will try to takeover Energy and Immigration before we can vote em out in November. I am going to bring a list of the bad guys that need to be voted out and post on our bulletin board." chimed in Joe Borger Hurd just to send folks off on a really high note.

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
"Other than getting severely depressed by President Obama's take over of the American economy what can we do about it?" was the the big question put forward by none other than my Mom, Maxine, at this week's coffee.
Aunt Martha climbed onto this one, "In addition to just sitting around sniffling it seems to me a bunch of big old boys like you should have some answers." She then took out her notebook with pen in hand.
Sweet Lou Tekell, who will fill any silence, jumped on this, "I just saw where Dick Morris talked about something he called 'appropriation bills'. Seems the Obama health care bill that was passed only authorizes all this junk and creates a program. But these things called authorization bills are not appropriations which are required to fund the bill. Each year the Congress must act on appropriations for each department and agency in the government. If no funds are appropriated for Obama's Health Care Plan then nothing can be spent. So if Republicans can gain a majority in the House (where appropriations have to originate) - and especially if they also take the Senate - they will have the capacity to zero fund Obamacare after November's election."
Mom came back, "So what can we do to gain control of the House and Senate?"
Butch Jackson, keeper of all facts and figures of importance to the Hubbard City Cafe, blurted his usual, "Glad you ask. I will put what I call my Good, Bad, and Ugly list on the menu board in Bad, Ugly, and Good sequence."
The eleven Texas"Bad" guys that voted for Obamacare:
Al Green from Houston (D-09)
Ruben Hinojosa from Edinburg (D-15)
Silvestre Reyes from El Paso (D-16)
Sheila Jackson Lee from Houston (D-18)
Charles A. Gonzalez from San Antonio (D-20)
Ciro Rodriguez from San Anotonio (D-23)
Lloyd Doggett from Austin (D-25)
Solomon P. Ortiz from Corpus Christi (D-27)
Henry Cuellar from Laredo (D-28)
Gene Green from Houston (D-29)
Eddie Bernice Johnson from Dallas (D-30)
The "Ugly" guy that voted against Obamacare but probably would have voted for it if his vote was needed:
Chet Edwards from Waco (D-17)
The "Good" guys that voted against Obamacare:
Louie Gohmert (R - 01)
Ted Poe (R - 02)
Sam Johnson (R - 03)
Ralph Hall (R - 04)
Jeb Hensarling (R - 05)

Pete Olson (R - 22)
Kenny Marchant (R - 24)
Michael C. Burgess (R - 26)
John Carter (R - 31)
Pete Sessions (R - 32)
So Mom came back in, "So, Billy Roy, what is our call to action?"
Billy Roy Michum, in his most professorial and semi-classic C&W voice, responded, "I, Billy Roy Michum, unofficial and unelected Chairman of the Hubbard City Cafe call on all Blog Readers to copy this blog and forward it to all their contacts with a request to work their very hardest to throw out the Bad and Ugly and elect Good Guys in all House and Senate races in the year 2010 in the great State of Texas. Furthermore, I ask each to comment on this very blog and let us know how many contacts they made with this most critical and patriotic message so help me God."
And the folks said in unison, "Amen and Amen."

How Dare You? A Letter From B. H. Obama
Billy Roy Michum called the coffee meeting to order with a statement of semi-disbelief, "I can't believe it but Obama has taken the time to write us a complaint letter, but he has. Before we read his letter just think about it: Iran's moving to nuclear weapons, the Palestinians are threatening Israel, China is driving us out of critical world markets, Osama Bin Laden is threatening us, our troops are committed to two wars, we continue to lose over 400,000 jobs a month in the US, and our leader Obama is going on a pep rally tour to sell the Health Care Monster that he, Pelosi, and Reid have stuffed down our throats into law. Now that they have this Monster in our stomachs they are going to continue to lie about how great it is going to be when it comes out. Any idiot knows how something that has been stuffed down your stomach winds up, it turns to shit. And shit is shit no matter how you wrap it. Anyway, Aunt Martha, could you read this letter?"
"I would be happy to, BM," Aunt Martha replied showing total compliance to BM's request.
To: The Hubbard City Cafe
From: President Barrack Hussien Obama
(Duly Elected President of the United States and Don't Forget It)
Subject: Critical Questions from My Big White House to Your Little Bitty Cafe
1. How dare you not always call me by the last complete name (Barack Hussein Obama) that my handlers have selected for me when I decided to run for political office instead of Barry and all that other stuff?
2.How dare you ask to see validation that I am who I say I am ( my colleges, birth certificates, legislation sponsored, job descriptions, college transcripts and writings, etc.) How dare you ask why and how my wife and I lost our licenses to practice law?
3. How dare people criticize me for not supporting my own family members living in poverty when I have no idea who my own family members are? And I do not care. I am President.
4. How dare you ask me to honor my oath to protect the US Constitution which needs reforming? And besides I am a World leader and way bigger than this little racist country and any dumb document written by a bunch of old dead white guys who wore wigs and hose.
5. How dare you question the history of my Muslim faith? Whether I am attending a Christian church with my family now? Why I went to Rev. Wright's Social Justice Black Supremist church for 20 years? Or why I always side with anyone against the Jews in Israel?
6. How dare you ask me to have real press conferences? How dare you ask me to speak before any audiences who are not handpicked? How dare you try to require that my statements that my staff puts on Mr. Teleprompter are true? How dare you watch Fox News try to counter balance my adoring main stream media networks? I hate those people and plan to destroy them when I can get around to it.
7. How dare you question my appointing Communists and Socialists to high positions in my administration? How dare you to criticize me for taking control of the auto, financial, and health care industries, and soon to be energy industry and immigration of illegals all the while smearing me with labels like Socialist? How dare you complain about me passing a stimulus bill to pay back my voters and financial supporters? Remember the election? I won, you lost, eat crap!
8. In fact and to sum it up, since I am President how dare you little people believe that I should be restricted in anyway by the rules of law, Congress, public opinion, your Christian God, or your stupid little bitty blog?
Your President and Master,
B. H. Obama
Well, the folks left after their second cups commited to dare more than ever. Guess Obama just doesn't understand the little people.
Think about it,

P. S. Eddie Ray Rabbit has left Hubbard to move to Florida to pick lemons for a living. Seems like a good idea since he's been divorced three times, owned 2 Toyota trucks, and voted for Obama.

What Got In Your Eye This Weekend?
"Never have I seen anyone who pee-ed in someone's eye and told them it was raining more then on this Health Care thing," sighed Billy Roy Michum (fairly famous C&W performer who had recently returned from a semi-extended tour of a good part of East Central Texas staying pretty much south of Corsicana) as he held court at the Cafe. This was the post weekend review of the big Nancy Pelosi Cat Roundup. BM continued, "Might be good for us to separate the pee from the rain on this momentous occasion. I say momentous because I think this will wind up as a very inspiring event in our much needed cause to take back our liberty and basic rights from Washington, D.C."
The following was a solo by BM splashing facts and opinions mostly right and not much left:
The rain in our eye was flowing strongest when Nancy P declared Health Care a Right after the unconstitutional vote. The fact that she was peeing is clear when you consider our Founders said that our Rights came from our Creator and not Nancy P nor Barry Obama nor anyone else in government. In fact the government restricts individual Rights, they don't grant them. In fact they are supposed to protect our Rights based on the rule of law and the U.S. Constitution.
The rain came down real hard when this Bart Stupak guy from Ohio said that Barry had written an Executive Order declaring the government would not fund abortions. Hell, he probably wrote it on the back of one of his cigarette packs. Anyway, the pee was pretty obvious as Stupak and fellow bullshitters then voted into law the Senate Bill which specifically states that folks can buy insurance that covers abortions and that the government will subsidize the purchase of this insurance. I read this Reconciliation Bill and it doesn't extract the abortion funding provision at all. Stupak then had the gaul to pronounce the Democrats the party that protected Human Life. Go figure.
Obama laughed off criticism as he rained reassurances on us who questioned the growth of government and DC's take over of Health Care. When you read the passed bill it is all urine. Over 150 new bureaucracies, 3,400 new government mandates, 1,700 new IRS agents to enforce the mandates on people and companies who will share tax records with Health and Human Services, new taxes driving marginal tax rates to Jimmy Carter levels of 44% (60% in states like California), and to top it all off, Obama added a provision for the government to take over all student loans which has nothing to do with Health Care.
In fact all of this has very little to do with Health Care. Obama claims to be a rain maker that is historically insuring all Americans while reducing costs for all and reducing the deficit. The urinating truth is most of the specifics in this bill will never go into effect. Does anyone believe we will tax Labor Union Cadillac Health Plans scheduled to start in the year 2018? What will happen and soon is the government's use of this law to take control of Health Care and create another entitlement to get people more dependent on the NANNY STATE. Our idiot VP slipped and said last week, 'this bill will let us control insurance companies.' Obama and crew's real goal is to transform the US to Socialism by promising to buy votes Chicago style.
Once again the freedom of the American people is at risk, and the will of the American people is being challanged. May God not give up on, and bless, the USA.
Nobody else really had anything to add.
Think about it,

The Coming BIG GOVERNMENT NANNY STATE
This appears to be "the week" determining whether our country takes an enormous step toward Socialism (BIG GOVERNMENT Control) so the Cafe is working overtime by starting their afternoon coffee at 2:45 instead of the normal 3:00 PM schedule. Discussions and other semi-critical actions are extending sometimes even beyond 4:00. So my instructions are to blog a little more frequently than (I was going to say normal, but Billy Roy says there's not much normal about my blog).
Scott Riddle, local cattle baron and insurance tycoon of some local importance, says, "The Drug Store Libs laugh about it when the folks talk about how these Health Care plans lead to a government takeover and shred our Constitution. Most folks don't know, and won't find out according to Pelosi until the bill is passed, about several provisions that mandate racial and ethnic quotas for medical schools and government contractors in the House Bill. They call for quotas for those that are 'underrepresented' so they can not include Asians and Jewish people. Their claimed rationale is that Blacks and Hispanics have poorer health than others. If they can force more 'underrepresented' doctors and health care workers they will treat these groups."
Even the folks didn't know about this and chairs were pulled in real tight as Scott continued, "Of course the Libs blame everything on discrimination and overlook the fact that Medical Schools have been trying to enroll Blacks for years. The problem is that historically Blacks do not gravitate to Math and Science which are required for medical curriculums and to pass licensing exams. So clearly this provision would put lesser qualified medical personnel in our hospitals unless this educational problem is solved by the public schools (or the Libs will probably just lower requirements and change the licensing exams). Cynically you have to ask yourself, are the libs motivated by improving health care for all, or just buying votes to support their BIG GOVERNMENT NANNY STATE?"
"Speaking of buying votes for the NANNY STATE," jumped in Billy Roy Michum (Hubbard City's version of Merle Haggard and unofficial Chairman of the Board of the Hubbard City Cafe),"How about the provision to force insurance companies to insure children until they are 26 years of age? Holy Mother Mary of Christ, that is all these young punks need is to cling to those aprons another 8 years after high school. Obama is going to do things like this and reduce our health care costs while keeping our insurance from going up. How do you add 30 million people to the roles, treat young people like suckling pigs, and lower costs. Those can't be real cigarettes Idiot #1 (Obama) is smoking.
Butch Jackson was, as always, following the numbers on this discussion, "More and more I understand why the Libs, which now are counted in the mid 20 percentile, take their coffee at the Drug Store. They would need a steady supply of non-over the counter stuff to stay this delusional for this long about Barry, Pelosi, Reid, and the other Communists."
You know I don't think the folks are even wound up yet.
Stay tuned.
