Sam Adams (D) Openly Gay, former lover to pose nude

First of all, if there is any doubt that Sam Adams is a Democrat, read his wikipedia page. Now that that is out of the way, let's get to the story.

As reported in The Olympian, Sam's controversial lover is going out and posing nude for a magazine. Hey, no big deal, do what you want right? Just don't lie. Here is an excerpt from the article:

After Adams took office in January, Portland was in turmoil over the mayor's admission he had lied during the election campaign when he denied having sex with Breedlove.

Both Breedlove and Adams have said they met when Breedlove was 17 but did not have sex until Breedlove was 18.

Despite calls for his resignation and an investigation, Adams has decided to remain in office. Efforts to reach Breedlove were unsuccessful.

So before you cry 'homophobe', I could really care less who he has sex with. The point is he has lied to the public, has been caught and is now being publicly humiliated. He should resign.

Note to Democrats: people with low moral standards are sure to disappoint you. I prefer my elected officials are not liars.

Union Organizes a Rally to stop Government Layoffs

The Federation of Washington State Employees organized a rally today at the state capitol protesting potential employee layoffs.

When this happens in the private sector, employees work with their employers to figure out ways to cut costs, improve service and attract more customers.

The only reaction that government and unions know is to raise taxes. Not going to happen this time round guys. Start looking for jobs.

Gregoire ready to blow through another $6 billion

Today President Obama signed into law the Economic Stimulus and Recovery Bill. Washington State is slated to receive $6.7 billion of the money.

I'm confident that Christine Gregoire will blow through this money with the same vigor and irresponsibility as the last dough she blew through. Giving her more money to spend is like sending an alcoholic to the liquor store.

New Debt for Your Children

Today President Obama signed into Law the Economic Stimulus and Recovery Bill. The money is aimed to save and grow government jobs, bolster union employment and begin an FDR-style public works program. Some of this money may provide a small uptick in the economy, but any positive move will be short-lived.

Ultimately, this 'plan' will give Americans a hangover much worse than the collapse of the financial system and our housing market. This plan simply does not address the underlying root of the financial problem at hand, and it puts government in control of how to spend our money -- never a good idea.

More evidence is the stock market moved against President Obama today; the market would have moved up if it was optimistic about the plan. Apparently the financial wizards of America don't think this is a good deal for America. It's a foreshadowing of tougher economic times.

Government should be adding more money into the financial system for refinancing of sub-prime mortgages, and suspending the mark-to-market rules for real estate appraisals. We are faced with a 10 trillion dollar problem (or more). A mere 800 billion dollars will not fix the problem. It can only prolong and exasperate the inevitable. In addition to bolstering the financial and housing crisis, government should be providing real and tangible tax rebates to individuals. And government should get out of the way of private business.

This stimulus package has only one ending: more government, more taxes, poorer America. Thanks President Obama, we will remember.

Fear-Mongering Obama Scares Nation into Socialism

Obama breaks his campaign promises of changing D.C. and scares good Americans into beliving in Socialism:

But at this particular moment, with the private sector so weakened by this recession, the federal government is the only entity left with the resources to jolt our economy back to life. It is only government that can break the vicious cycle where lost jobs lead to people spending less money which leads to even more layoffs. And breaking that cycle is exactly what the plan that’s moving through Congress is designed to do.
