Lindsey Graham is out there professing how essential it is to give over a trillion of working American’s dollars to business, banks, investors, and buyers that made bad decisions.I am so sick of that sorry RINO’s carcass being on TV. He is an embarassment to South Carolina and to all humanity.

Kudos go out to Senator Jim DeMint from South Carolina who carries the stones enough to stand against the Bush-Obama bailout. At least we have one halfway-decent representative in Washington D.C.

I may disappoint some of you by saying that the only thing I like so far is the effort to require health insurance to provide equal coverage for mental health. How do they get by with paying a certain amount for physical sickness and injuries, but for those who have sickness in their mind, a massively reduced payment schedule kicks in. The brain is part of the body - right? It gets sick - right? so why not cover mental illness the same as any other illness? What I don’t understand though is what does health insurace have to do with this bailout?  Your government at work.

If you’re interested in the San Francisco values that Nancy Pelosi supports and defends, click HERE. There’s links to other reports of the goings on, but they are far too lewd to be shown on this site.

These perverts are violating the law, but condoned by the police and by Miller Beer. It’s offensive and disgusting that public behavior like this is allowed anywhere in the USA.

Keep in mind, these are the people who run the Democrat Party.

REUTERS: No fuel shortage in South Carolina

By reading Reuters, one would think that gas supply is plentiful in South Carolina. Unfortunately, those poor folks at Reuters are either oblivious, or they just don’t care. In fact, I don’t think anyone cares about the dire situation here in the Upstate. All around Greenville, gas stations have NO gas. When one station has gas, their lot is swarmed in an almost unmanageable web of automobiles. Aggravation and rage are commonly witnessed as frustrated (would be) customers are turned away after spending hours in line, just to find that the station has run out as they finally get to the pump.

This is a contrived shortage, I know. Some people are getting very very rich from it too. I’m wondering why it’s happening here and why no one in the media, in the government, or in the fuel industry gives a $hit about it.

House GOP finally finds some gonads

We should all be fanning the flames of the several GOP representatives who somehow grew a pair big enough to stand against the Obama - Bush bailout plan! Imagine the surprise when some of those Republican sissies grabbed their crotch and discovered little teeny tiny balls there. It’s about time. After being sold out by RINOs time after time, it’s refreshing to see someone stand up for the best interests of our country and vote “No!” to this trillion dollar bailout.

I am so fed up with this!! Listen, this whole problem goes directly back to Bill Clinton and his smoke and mirrors economy. Now, we have wealthy businessmen who profited from loose credit policies standing to lose a few million: “WE JUST CAN’T HAVE THAT!” they say. If the business is run bad, it should close. If bad risks were taken, the CEOs and executives should lose their pants along with the companies they wrecked. Starting with Chuck “Countywide” Schumer and his gay pals up there in D.C., they should all be imprisoned immediately and publicly executed after a very open trial. HA! And all you losers who “bought” houses with Freddie and Fannie, I want your stinkin’ house yanked out from under you. I want to see your sorry carcasses out on the street, lined up for the freaking Salvation Army. DAWG!

C’mon folks! Enough is enough already! The greedy Federal Government and their affluent cronies are raping us, then when they get in a little financial bind, they want to make up for it out of your check and mine!

As for the automakers, I’ve said it before: let them die. I am not responsible for their wretched business practices - whatever they are. Let the freaking Presidents and CEOs lose all their income & get fired for being lousy at their jobs. Close them down! If they can’t make a car and sell it for what it cost them to make it, then they should not be in business.

Oh! And so-freaking-what about the 700 point loss in the stock market. That’s over one point for every BILLION dollars that they want to take from US. So what if you’ve got a 401K? I don’t give a crap about your portfolios. Sometimes you freaking win, and sometimes you don’t… no one ever taught you that? TOO BAD SO SAD! Why is it that when I lose, you don’t care? Why is it that when those with assets of tens and hundreds of millions lose that it’s a crisis? The stock market will go back up and someone else will earn the money that your sorry a$$ lost!

Stinkin’ RINO traitor, John McCain says that he hopes to support Congress’ raping of the American worker by taking money from their incomes to prevent the ultra-wealthy on Wall Street from losing a few bucks.

JOHN McCAIN is a traitor. He won’t fight for you. He won’t fight for me. He won’t fight for America.

“You have the former Chairman of Goldman Sachs asking for 700 billion dollars, and in his initial request, asking for it in such an un-American way that I think he should have resigned,” said Gingrich. “I think Paulson has terminally misunderstood the nature of the American system. Not just no review, no judicial review, no congressional accountability. Give me 700 billion dollars, 700 BILLION dollars! ‘I’ll be glad to spend it for you.’  That’s a centralization of power that is totally un-American.”

I say Paulson should be lynched for what he has done and what he is doing to the American people.

SCREWED AGAIN: Taxpayers forced to keep worthless automakers afloat

The American auto manufacturers are a bunch of losers who deserve to go bankrupt. Without regard for the incomes of average workers, the out-of-control US Congress has passed legislation to take your money and mine to keep the stream of low quality cars pouring off the production lines as wealthy CEOs and executives continue to be rewarded for failure.

The free market should be allowed to work. If demand does not exist for the ugly, lemon cars put out by American companies, those companies have no right to exist. Shut them down… let the wealthy executives go down with the sinking ship and lose their share.

DAWG! Who’s going to bail ME out? Nobody. But we’re sure forced to bail out all the affluent in America, aren’t we.

I’m not very concerned about watching a fraud speak against a loser… are you? OK, Bush Kerry? Yeah, that was while we thought that Bush might be worth something (I’m so glad I didn’t vote for him). At least we had one man whom we thought was decent versus the freak show, Kerry. This debate was two freak shows.

Let’s just put it this way: voting McCain over Obama is like voting for the Legion of evil spirits over Satan. Really exciting choice, isn’t it?

NO GAS IN UPSTATE SOUTH CAROLINA

I was going to say something about this earlier, but The [putrifying] Greenville News said that gas supply should be better this weekend. It isn’t. Now, it’s not going to be better till sometime next week.

What’s going on? Why don’t the people demand some sort of explanation? From Greenville, SC through Asheville, NC gasoline is almost impossible to find, and when it is found, it’s at an exhorbitant price.

Jenny Munro wants to make us, the consumers, responsible for alleviating the supply problem. I don’t think so! We’re supposed to believe that we are still paying for the effects of the fizzled storm Ike?

Gas shortages persist in Upstate

By Jenny Munro • STAFF WRITER • September 27, 2008

The Upstate’s gasoline shortage is expected to persist into next week, although some gasoline is making its way to the terminals at Belton and Spartanburg, said Steve Spinks, president of Spinx Oil Co.

“There will be stations out of product,” he said, “but the Upstate will not be dry.”

Almost half of his stores are out of some product, although many of them have some grades of gasoline or diesel fuel, he said.

Retail prices are expected to begin dropping as gasoline becomes more plentiful, he said. Wholesale prices have begun falling, he said, and retail prices normally follow.

Still, South Carolina Attorney General Henry McMaster said he is renewing the state’s prohibition on price gouging as he continues to investigate soaring gas prices.

McMaster said Friday his office had taken more than 4,000 complaints from consumers since he began his investigation Sept. 12.

McMaster said he plans to continue investigating gouging complaints for at least 15 more days. So far, McMaster has issued 15 subpoenas asking retailers about high prices.

He said he hasn’t charged anyone with price gouging so far.

Currently, the terminals still are receiving just a portion of their normal gasoline delivery from the Colonial and Plantation pipelines that run through the Upstate, Spinks said.

Spinx stores ran out of gasoline earlier Friday than on other days, he said.

Also, traffic delays occurred occasionally at different locations in Greenville because stations with gas attracted a crush of vehicles.

“Motorists should be patient and exercise control and restraint in gas lines,” said David E. Parsons, president and chief executive officer of AAA Carolinas. “Avoid panic pumping, or filling up and topping off your tanks when it’s not necessary, because that will continue the run on already very limited gas supplies.”

The tight situation is spreading, with Rock Hill, which receives gasoline from Charlotte terminals, reporting problems with pumps running dry Thursday, said Michael Fields, executive director of the South Carolina Petroleum Marketers Association.

Big shipments of gasoline expected to terminals in Charlotte, Spartanburg and Selma on Friday should allow a “replenishing” level of gasoline in some areas hit hard by gas shortages the past week, including Asheville, Charlotte, Greensboro, Aiken, Spartanburg and Greenville, Parsons said.

More Gulf Coast refineries are online, with more gasoline flowing through the pipelines, he said. Four of the 17 Houston-area refineries remain closed. Most others are in partial or full operation, with a handful expected to ramp up to full capacity through the weekend. The other 16 Gulf refineries were operating at either partial or full capacity Friday.

However, consumers probably won’t see much of an improvement until Tuesday or Wednesday, Spinks said.

“I know it’s jarring for them,” he said.

But “everybody is so depleted it’s not very efficient,” he said of the system, which operates smoothly only when it operates efficiently. He said Spinx is sending a truck to Charleston, which has a water-borne gasoline terminal. Gas is coming in there without difficulties. Product also is available in Savannah, Ga., and Wilmington, N.C. — also port cities that receive gasoline by ship.

Although the real problem is lack of supply, consumers can play a role in increasing efficiency in the distribution system, he said.

“They can ride on the bottom half of their tank,” he said. “They should start looking for gas at a fourth of a tank.”

Also, motorists could try to cut back on driving through the weekend and the first of the week, he said.

Clemson University has asked faculty and staff to conserve fuel by curtailing travel, carpooling and taking the CAT bus as much as possible in response to the gasoline shortage.

Gov. Mark Sanford has asked all state agencies, including Clemson, to prohibit nonessential travel because of tight fuel supplies around the state. The state will re-evaluate the policy next week based on the availability of fuel.

Parsons said the situation is improving.

“It is likely that stations will have more gas available this weekend. It will take time for tankers to deliver to different stops,” he said.

Large shipments of gas to the Southeast through the pipeline still are a week or more away, he said, and sporadic gasoline outages and shortages could occur during that period.

Working people forced to subsidize the affluent

In times of economic uncertainty, it really sucks to be an average American worker. Not only do you have to continue footing the bill for a couple hundred million freeloading bottom feeders, you have to finance the ultra-wealthy who - in spite of their incompetence, criminal activity, fraud, and failure continue to reap tens of millions of dollars as reward for screwing the American worker. This should not be permitted.

Those who say that hard work and honesty pay off are fools because our society does not prove it. We have a government that is of the wealthy, for the wealthy, and by the wealthy where those who produce are of no value save the enrichment of the wealthy and the sustaining of the ignorant power base used by the wealthy to retain power.

How will this ever change? Do you think your vote will change anything? No, it won’t! Your vote is worth exactly the same as the illegal alien’s (illegal) vote. Your vote is worth exactly the same as the chronically unemployed mooching welfare mother who has 10 children by 11 different men, receives $1,000 in food stamps every month as well as free medical care for her and her off spring (valued at $2000 or more per month. Then throw in free housing and administrative costs, and we have a bottom line cost of probably $30,000 or more per Democrat vote… votes that breed at a ratio higher than those who can think… who pays for that? YOU DO IF YOU WORK. That $30,000 is a bargain compared to the millions of dollars per congressman, senator, regulator and bureaucrat that we have to finance. Now, with this pseudo “We have to socialize our economy NOW” emergency moment, we have to finance a bunch of wealthy incompetent fraudsters who should go down with their own sinking ship.

Fine, so what do we do? We continue to vote for ultra-wealthy candidates like John McCain or Barack Hussein Obama.  These people have no stake in our economy. Regardless of how bad the economy gets, McCain and Obama will be alright… The senators and congressman who have enriched themselves through public office will be OK. The votes bred for the Democrats in the ghettos will be OK. As it has been for the past 60 years, the working people of America take the hit for both the wealthy and for the poor.

The system must change.
