Conservatives Rue McCain Nomination
Panic is creeping up in the Republican camp.
Neo-con Kristol in the NYT comments:
[McCain]
read a disjointed set of remarks at a badly staged rally at the
Pontchartrain Center in Kenner, La. Here’s part of an e-mail message I
received as McCain spoke, from a Republican who admires him: “They
could have done so well tonight, shown a tone of confidence. Instead it
looks like a bad Congressional race: dumb green puke background, small
crowd … Makes me want to cry.”
From the ground in Ohio LA Times reports:
If McCain tried to gather his volunteers in Ohio, "you could meet in a phone booth," said radio host Bill Cunningham, who attacks the Arizona senator regularly on his talk show. "There’s no sense in this part of Ohio that John McCain is a conservative or that his election would have a material benefit to conservatism."
Novak opines in WaPo:
The evangelicals are not an isolated problem for the Arizona senator. Enthusiasm for McCain inside the Republican coalition is in short supply. During the four months since McCain clinched the nomination, he has not satisfied conservatives opposed to his positions on global warming, campaign finance reform, immigration, domestic oil drilling and how to ban same-sex marriages.
There will be more of such reports and voices. The false ‘maverick’ image that made McCain a media darling and gave him the primary votes is now hurting him with the ultra conservatives.
It will not keep all of them away from the polls though.
If McCain runs a positive campaign, arguing the conservative causes, they will not believe him. So instead McCain must and will run a campaign that instigates ‘fear of worse’. That will motivate many conservatives to hold their nose and give him their vote in hope of preventing a Democratic presidency.
But others will also choose the libertarian alternative to the right of McCain. Some will stay at home. The total will not be enough.
For now the conservative coalition puzzle in the U.S. seems to have fallen apart. McCain is not the person who can put the pieces back together.
As this slowly sinks into the party’s mind, some elders may start to acknowledge the necessity of an intervention by some ‘higher force’ before the convention opens.
The Bam’ Man Drinks the Red Kool Aid
Yes, sad to say, as Mos’Admiral McCain’s star fades into the East,
the Bam’ Man’s just waking up to a hot cup of Bilderberg whoop ass,
Hot Red Kool Aid in a styrofoam Dixie cup.
“We need to stop spending $12B on reconstruction in Iraq, and start
spending that money on our own infrastructure (sic) and good jobs for
hard-working American (code word ) families. And I’m proposin’ another
$50B rebate economic stimulus program (code word), to help that along!”
Oh joy! Obliterate another country, then loan ourselves our own money!!
OK, first, we ain’a gonna’ be spendin’ no $12B in Iraq no mo’. That’s
what Mos’Admiral McCain and the Neo-Zi.Con’s are busy doin’ there now,
makin’ sure the only buildin’ we do is hundreds of new military bases,
and plenny of outsource contractin’ support services, and juicin’ it
all up with a fat 60% cut of oil royalties, 40% going to Iraq based on
last year’s oil price, and tapped to pay for their own reconstruction,
again, with plenny of outsource contractin’ support services from US.
So that’s just pure Bilderberg bullshit, warming up his audience.
Now comes The Man With The Plan. A $50B Improvized Economic Device,
lying in wait by the side of the economy, to blow a gaping hole in our
children’s future income and all our taxable SSTF and 401k benefits.
They can’t wait for the Baby-Boomers to retire. Fed.gov’s burn rate is
too high, astronumerological, with all that bailout money sloshing
around in the bilge. Let’s light another “economic stimulus” candle!
PT was first to report here at MoA that the true numbers behind Bush.Con’s
first economic stimulus con revealed a darker side. Running the numbers
from DoLabor and Census, that $160B rebate program would only pay out to
the American taxpayer less than $100B. A 33% origination fee, off the top!
Then came Fed rules that only American citizens (and dual citizen Israeli-
Americans) would receive rebate checks. Non-citizens, spouses and family
of non-citizens, toto por nada, friendo. That reduced the actual
payout to less than $80B, in essence, a 50% origination fee on the loan!!
But wait! There’s more! That loan to ourselves is taxable income!
There goes another 30% down the rabbit hole, plus another 10% in State
and local taxes. (20% of the total loan). And the interest on the entire
program, financed by Treasuries over a likely 15-year payback, if ever,
at another 5% a year is … do the math … That’s a 200% payback!!
That $160B rebate program costs US $320B right from the git-go!
Where are our fancy-pants trust accountants and tax advisors!!?? Whores!
At the end of the day, this illegal taxation-by-rebate con has a NAV of:
1) 50% origination fee; 2) 20% effective tax rate, and 3) 200% financing
fee. We’re on the hook for 270% surcharge on these economic rebates!!!
270% is usury in any language, in any society, at any time in history!
And as PT warned MoA’s before, what if this rebate succeeds so well that
the next Congress bumps it to $1.6T? Well, the Bam’ Man says that’s OK!!
What they can’t achieve by taxation, since that affects Corporate-State,
(at least for those corps that haven’t fled the country already), and what
they can’t achieve by inflation/devaluation, while faking the CPI/PPI to cap
inflation indexed bonds, SSTF payments, Fed, State and local salaries and
retirement benefits, they’re just opening a new front on the US taxpayers.
Improvized Economic Devices.
Like the Fed, where central banking became gov.con’s open checkbook, from
the day Fed was formed, central banking and central government have grown
like a malignant tumor, metastasizing with each made-to-order war, reaching
deeper and deeper into our economic sinews, our intellectual property brain
cells, until now,… 1) the majority of all Americans work for government or
are contracting to it; 2) the majority of US GDP is produced for government,
in other words, the lion’s share of our GDP is just our recycled taxes!!!;
3) the majority of all new patents and copyrights are either government or
institutional, funded again, by the taxpayer, all without any benefit to US,
and usually to our detriment, individually, and as a society.
Oh, wait, I forgot the $100M NASA space pen … that writes underwater!!
Tell the Bam’ Man to take his Pay Day IED jihad, and shove it up his keester.
Nobody should have to pay 270% interest on any loan, especially when it’s going
toward growing Corporate-State faster, in a geometric death spiral of malignancy.
This is the part where you elect radiation or chemotherapy after surgery.
But, I bet you spent your rebate already, didn’ you’all?
What part of six-kinds-of-stupid don’t you get?!
