Politicians like to use massive dumpster bills to reward supporters. Democrats are just better at it. The Obama bailout was loaded with giveaways, but the latest effort includes something new. Taxpayer handouts to members of the media.

ICYMI: Borrowing Trillions to Bail Out States’ Bad Decisions Would Do More Harm Than Good
As our nation grapples with the reality of COVID-19, we must come to grips with another devastating threat — our national debt.
The TEA Party is for America not for a Political Party
Jim Hightower’s recent article titled, “Playing politics with humanitarian aid”, (see Jim Hightower.com) is just another anti-TEA Party screed falsely attempting to link it with the Republican Party. The article can be summarized: Republicans and TEA Partiers cannot complain about Democrat wasteful and irresponsible spending which rewards Democrat supporters because Republicans similarly spend to reward Republican supporters.
The TEA Party objects, equally strenuously, to wasteful and irresponsible spending by both parties.
The TEA Party believes that politicians in Washington are only authorized to raise and spend money to pay for Constitutionally authorized functions. Politicians are not authorized to tax or borrow money to reward friends or to buy political support.
Fun With Jan And Carol
Democrats like to make up rules for Republicans which I then do my best to apply to democrats. In this example we have a donor to Carol Shea Porter who has been up to some questionable behavior. If Carol doe snot denounce it she is complicit in it. So pay attention.
Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill)–remember Jan, she’s on that socialist party list–has apparently helped bail out a local Illinois bank outside her district. What’s wrong with that? Nothing unless you are one of the small banks in her district that she allowed to fail. Nothing, unless you know that the bank in question appears to have donated to Senator Dick Durbin, Ms. Schakowsky, Obama and has connections to a distinguished list of Chicago insiders, many of whom are currently hanging with the man at 1600. Even the Clinton’s and MoveOn.org have roots in SouthShore. And nothing at all unless that bank just happens to be a bank Jan’s husband used to help him find a way out of his bank kiting scheme before he went to the big house.

Carol on…Financial Reform
Carol thinks she’s done you a great service by supporting the Wall street Reform legislation. She’s clearly not read it. Here’s what she want’s you to think.
• Create a new Consumer Financial Protection Agency that will ensure that bank loans, mortgages, and credit cards are fair, affordable, understandable, and transparent;
• End abusive predatory lending practices such as 
those that occurred during the sub prime lending frenzy;
• Shut down “too big to fail” financial firms before their risky and irresponsible behavior threatens to bring down the entire economy;
• End costly taxpayer bailouts with new procedures to unwind the failing companies that pose the greatest risk – paid for by the financial industry and not the taxpayers;
• Enhance oversight and transparency for credit-rating agencies;
• Rein in egregious executive compensation;
• Enact new protections for grocers, retailers, and other small businesses facing excessive swipe fees; and
• Audit the Federal Reserve’s emergency lending programs used during the financial crisis and limit the Fed’s emergency lending authority.
That’s what Carol thinks it does. But what does it actually do….
New Hampshire Needs To Go Into Rehab
“…state governments learn to rely to much on federal handouts as well. New Hampshire democrats just “balanced” the state budget with more debt and millions in federal money that’s not even there. So now they’ll have to get someone to put it back or their budget will not be “in balance,” like some crack whore begging for another hit.”
Carol’s Dim Bulb
In a rather expensive looking effort to reassure that she is in fact on the job defending us from top-heavy, ill-mannered, near-do well’s we are presented with the following from the most recent Carol Shea Porter mailer. “The Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act enables the government to identify large interconnected companies engaged in … Read more
