BlogACause servers attacked Monday Morning

Share

Bring It On!Actanonverba and Myself must have said something to upset the Obamessiah Tube Police. Since Sunday evening Blogacause and the servers that host us have been under a DDOS attack which didn't really bring us down, it just slowed things to a crawl.  So, we shut things down for a while and noted some interesting IPs and then we brought it back up around 7 pm tonight.

Nice try libtards, the most you did was overload the server.  Your attempts to hack the code and databases failed miserably.  If that's your A game you better get back to kindy garten.

Mark Kirk found to be one of the eight traitors who voted for cap and trade

Share

We must insure that politicians who vote against the people are never re-elected!Way to go you self serving imbecile, you've thrown your country to the wolves.  You voted for more taxes upon a citizenry already crippled by the failed policies of the last two presidents and the last 5 assemblies of congress.


Mark Kirk, traitor against the American People!Here is my pledge to you Mark Kirk and every other Illinois politician that voted for this insane bill based on junk science, I will do everything I can possibly do to make sure you don't win re-election, ever.  Your pockets are filled with the silver of thieves and scoundrels.  You should be ashamed of yourself for not doing better by your countrymen.


If Kirk and the other 7 republican turn-coats had voted for the people, cap-n-trade would have fallen in the trash can where it belongs.  Instead, the final vote tally of 219 to 212 giving this bill life, is upon your shoulders, you and the 7 other turn-coat republican votes led to this unfair, unjust, illegal tax forced upon a people already struggling with a staggered economy.  Had you and the other 7 traitors voted for the people, the bill would have lost by 211 to 220.


I'm asking my readers to pass this article on to friends and family.  Give Rep. Kirk a call on Monday, June 29th 2009, and let this clown know that his days in the congressional circus are numbered, he will be voted out of office. 


Call U.S. Representative Mark Kirk (IL, 10th District) (202) 225-4385 (And he’s seriously considering running for Senate!)

The Economics Class Obama Would have Failed in College

Share

Looking for a dunce cap to send to ObamaAn economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before but had once failed an entire class.

That class had insisted that socialism worked and that no one should be poor and no one should be rich, the great equalizer.

The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on socialism. All grades will be averaged and everyone will receive the same grade so no one will fail and no one will receive an A."

The 3 socialist stoogesAfter the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B.  The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy. 

As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little. 

The second test average was a D!  No one was happy.

When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F.

The scores never increased as bickering, blame and name-calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else. 

All failed, to their great surprise.  The professor then explained that socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great, but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed.

Could not be any simpler than that.  Ya think?

The Government's Plan To Kill Independent Web Sites

Share

Ready to defend my sites viewers against more govt intrusionFound this little ditty over on the Above Top Secret site.  Seems another one of our elected thugs in congress has nothing better to do than commit treason against his constituents.  The thug this time is Representative Rick Boucher (democrat from Virginia), the new chairman of the House Subcommittee tasked with telecommunications technology and the Internet. This enemy of free expression, living comfortably in the back pockets of big media and telecommunications, is planning to craft legislation designed to obliterate millions of independent voices on the Internet (that would be blogs and alternative news sites) and shift power back into the hands of big media and big telcom. 

This is why blogacause exists, to fight govt. tyrannyIn a nut-shell, what Rep. Boucher is trying to do is introduce new privacy legislation soon, but nothing is on the table, yet.  Still, industry insiders are speculating that new legislation might require Web companies (blogs like mine or websites like blogacause or the companies like google which serve ads on blogacause) to obtain consumers' explicit opt-in consent before tracking them online and serving targeted ads.

Infuriatingly disguised as "online privacy advocacy", Boucher is, in reality, a big media hatchet-man, devising the genocide of the Internet culture. Given the rampant abuse of the Government collusion with big telcom to monitor your online activity, you can be certain the Chairman of the "House Subcommittee on Communications, Technology, and the Internet" has no real interest in your privacy, and every interest in keeping campaign contributions flowing, and information contained amongst his friends in big media. 

This is kinda nonsensical for a site like blogacause, considering that I designed and programmed this site to intentionally not store, process or in any way make known to anyone who a blogger is or who a reader of a blog is in any way.  I did this because I know that people need a place to blog from anonymously without fear of reprisal from other individuals or even our benevolent government.

I do have targeted ads, but they are not targeted to the consumer/reader, instead they are targeted to the content being read.  I also use google analytics, which tells me where my readers are from and how they got here, such as if the clicked on a link on another site or thru a google search, and this info only provides for a general sense of the visitor, for example, 4 blog readers read a specific article here-in and they were from Florida.  There is no personally identifiable information about those readers, not where they live, not their IP addresses, nothing about them personally.

If google began to collect and give me that information I would stop using google because frankly, thats intrusive and its something I've long fought against.  It also would not surprise me google already does this but does not provide that info.  Do consider that google was funded as a start-up by the NSA and the CIA.

So, in short, I'm keeping an eye out for this thug Rep in congress, to make sure he doesn't try to erode our free speech further.

Why Families Must Develop the Godfather Mentality to Survive the Obama Economy

Share

Looking for and working toward making my family financially stable.Ever wonder how wealthy families got to be wealthy?  They instilled a sense of purpose in their children, that being to conduct business, obtain useful educations and other purposed endeavors that ultimately benefit the families fortunes.  If we are to build a strong economy or see our families financially comfortable, it will be made up of strong families.  Either families in the traditional sense, or families that we create.



Obama's plan for your family is financial ruin.

One only needs to look to the corporate culture developed in Japan to see this in action.  They expect their employees to become a part of the corporate family and contribute to its long term success.  The Japanese model for business is a proven success.  They used the Godfather's model of business and finance built around family.


Where would one learn how to muster the family troops, both traditional family and created such a collective family wherein all benefit by financial stability and a sustainable community.


Of course I'm talking about Solari the company and financial system championed as a cause by Catherine Austin Fitts.  She offers a unique perspective on how to navigate the opportunities and risks in the global financial system and political economy.  There are very few people I look to for financial information and I dutifully read her newsletters because its untainted by the greed, avarice and the governmental/bankers propagandized in the main stream media.


What I particularly like about Solari, is that it promotes small business, community-based banking ( read that as 'not a part of the Federal Reserve' ), business to business barter and trade, and a whole list of other ideas that can help make a community and families self-sustainable, self-reliant, and financially secure.

Obama and Clinton's Financial Ties to Healthcare Industry

Share

Politics makes my tummy hurtOur forefathers warned us of such a time to come, at the close of the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia on September 18, 1787, a Mrs. Powel anxiously awaited the results, and as Benjamin Franklin emerged from the long task now finished, asked him directly: "Well Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?" "A republic if you can keep it", responded Franklin. 

Do we really want Obama and Congress to manage our healthcare?When was the last time you did a study on socialism?  I mean really take a look at those countries that had/have a strong socialist party or just plain embrace the ideology.  One common denominator was that those socialists all called themselves 'progressive'.  They thought of themselves as always on the 'move' forward.  They also understood that people will respond to progressive, moving rhetoric.  Here in the US we are confronted with a form of socialism precipitated by the election of Mr. Obama to the presidency, with the express goal of taking from us the very Republic system of government and civil management that made us the only world superpower.

It should come as no surprise then that Dear Leader Obama wants to socialize our medical insurance system.  Under such auspices as reducing costs, fighting fraud, and managing waste.  Our current system while not perfect is the envy of countries all over the world.  I'm sure you won't believe that statement but I can back it up by pointing to a couple countries to begin with.  Let's start with Canada, who while not having a socialized medical structure does have a socialized insurance coverage setup.  This has impacted their economy while also affecting the quantity and the quality of healthcare in a devastating way. 

Don't socialize medicate me bro!Now lets look to Obama's comrades in mother Russia.  The Rand Corporation did a very comprehensive study of the Russian state run healthcare system.  Its kinda bleak and not getting better.  As we begin to look at this system of healthcare for our own country perhaps we should take under advisement The Crisis of Russian Health Care and their Attempts at Reform.  One can only feel pity for the russian people who are suffering under the boot of oppressive despotism, but then they have to suffer the further insult of graft, corruption and staffing shortages that have befallen their socialized medical system.  Grigory Pasko has posted some dystopic tales of his experiences in Russia's healthcare system, and as we know from the medical blackmail of Vasily Alexanyan, the government has some serious problems to address in this policy area.  Alex Rodriguez of the Chicago Tribune has a good report on the topic.

Any real discussion of socialized medicine with out considering the mother of all socialist states, China, would be deficient.  China has had 60 years to get socialized medicine done right, and yet it was only in 2009 that they had to admit its not doable, but ever the optimist's they enacted a $124 billion health care reform plan (Xinhua).

We cannot afford more government helpIs this the road we really want to travel? 

We should be very leary of what Obama and other congressional leaders propose in the way of healthcare reform, given that the healthcare industry is deep in the pockets of these elected public officials.

Back in 2008 the presidential candidates raised $5 million for their federal campaign efforts over their lifetime in politics from the health care sector, including donations from individuals and PACs related to nursing homes and hospitals, pharmaceuticals and health products, HMOs and health services, and other miscellaneous health businesses.  But with the health care crisis facing America, should they be taking any money from this industry at all? Read the full report, "Their Money or Our Health" (pdf).

So just who are the recipients of this healthcare industry largese?  The top recipients of healthcare money include:

  • Sen. Hillary Clinton ( D-NY ): $1,510,862
  • Sen. Chris Dodd ( D-CT ): $781, 267
  • Sen. John McCain ( R-AZ ): $588,788
  • Sen. Barack Obama ( D-IL ): $492,885
  • Gov. Mitt Romney ( R-MA ): $413, 335

Imagine that... and that's nothing!  Consider that between the years 1998 and 2009, Hospitals/Nursing Homes gave our congresspersons and president $720,646,536; while Health Professionals gave them $653,230,168; Insurance companies doled out a mere $1,220,365,114 and Pharmaceuticals/Health Products companies dropped more than $1,620,254,958 into our upstanding congresspersons pockets.  Goodness gracious.  That's something there. 

I'm sure all that congressional pocket stuffing wouldn't affect my elected representatives votes in congress on matters that affect my wellbeing, financial bearing or healthcare.  It might however explain ActaNonVerba's two articles about Mercury in vaccines:  why our government continues to allow the Pharmaceutical industry to injure us with Mercury laden vaccines and how The Centers for Disease Control's quest for greater vaccine profits thru Thimerosal; and how this correlated directly to those companies bottom line profits being boosted by government inaction and congressional vote.  Of course, we also shouldn't notice how Dear Leader Obama and the US CONgress couldn't wait to bail out their buddies in banking industry after those same buddies lined their pockets in gold.

Given all of the above, are you sure you want to have big Obama government involved in your healthcare?  If so, it will certainly give new meaning to, "God help us".  While your at it, give the Death, taxes & Obamacare: Poster contest, Round Two a go over on Michelle Malkin's blog.

I Survived my own Hamburger Chubby Melt

Share

Feeling full of cheesy burger goodnessAlways one to try new foods, I came upon one that was just to good to pass up.  The Hamburger Fatty Melt!  A sinister plot to keep us Americans fat, happy and complacent for sure.  What is this nefarious culinary creation you might ask?  Its a hamburger that uses two Grilled Cheese Sandwiches as buns!  I kid you not, this one is not for those with heart problems.  This burger (if we can still call it that) originally came from the Mossy Creek Cafe in Fisherville, Virginia where its called the "Chubby Melt" (a burger between two grilled cheese sandwiches, smothered with sautéed onions and mushrooms and topped with Thousand Island dressing).

When I first read the article I was taken a-back, how could anyone make up a sandwich that was so wrong and yet looked so right.  I knew then and there I had to try this Grilled Cheese Cheeseburger, and I had to try it today.  No waiting for the lazy got nothing else to do day, this one was just to good to pass up.  So I did a google to see if there was more info about this burger surrounded in cheesy fat goodness and sure enough other brave souls had tried it.  Come to find out folks were trying all kinds of things with the core components, like adding bacon or ham both in the grilled cheese and/or on the burger, along with all the normal condiments.  So I could pretty much do what I wanted.

The Chubby Melt: a Grilled Cheese HamburgerSo in my normal happy go lucky I'm about to eat mood, I swing on downstairs and start rummaging around the fridge and pantry looking for all the items for what will surely be the onset of personal Coronary Artery disease.  Now the online instructions said they used Pepperidge Farm Very Thin white bread, but since normal Americans don't have this just laying around their kitchen and I'm certain Yahoo! got paid to endorse it. I went forward with my quest for the chubby melt burger using my old standby wheat bread of normal thickness.  I also used velvetta like brick cheese which melts great and you can cut it as thick or thin as you want.  I also decided I was gonna throw on some condiments like ketchup, mustard, sliced onion and kosher dill pickle slices.  I didn't have tomatoes or mushrooms, but I can try this again for sure.  I also didn't want to cook the onions because I like 'em raw.

I also didn't have loose hamburger laying around, but I did have frozen preformed round 100% pure beef patties.  I threw a patty on my The George Foreman Lean Mean Fat-Reducing Grilling Machine to give the meat a few minutes head start on the grilled cheese sandwiches.  I put a non-stick skillet on medium and tossed in some butter, while I prepared the bread and cheese slices.  Once the butter started to bubble a little bit I put the sandwiches in one at a time cuz its a smaller pan.  As I was cooking the grilled cheeses I realized they were gonna make for a very tall burger, so after I flipped them once I pressed down on them with my spatula until they were just the right thickness.

Oh, this was starting to smell unhealthily good.  I had to lean over the sink every 20 seconds or so because I was drooling in anticipation of this artery clogging consumption.  The grilled cheese sandwiches finished up about 1 minute before the beef patty, just enough time to throw on the ketchup, mustard, sliced onion and kosher dill pickle slices.  I plopped the patty down on the first sandwich and folded the other on top.  I was ready for hamburger heaven.

There it sat, the mount olympus of hamburgers in all its grilled cheese bunned goodness.  It looked daunting, but I was certain that after having practiced eating for 44 years I would prevail.  So I grabbed a beverage and proceeded to dig in.  Uhhh, the first bite was a shock of gooey ooey cheese and beef... some foods were born of greatness.  I'm pretty sure I didn't breath until after I consumed it because after it was all gone I found myself panting... it was that good.

As I was sitting here writing about this adventure in hamburger madness I realized this could be fun to experiment with.  Perhaps some shaved truffle added to the grilled cheese for those with a penchant for the expensive.  Or maybe bacon, onions and bbq sauce for the rustic cowboy types.  I'm sure we will see more of the Hamburger Chubby Melt in all kinds of configurations.

OutRage: The Governator Wants to Sell National Treasures in California to Highest Bidder

Share

Let's count the many ways the elect are looting our countrySchwarzenegger's plan to sell off Calif. landmarks is questioned; too risky in this market?

Wow, this was a shocker for me.  I like the Arnold.  I thought he represented the kind of conservative governance we should expect from a politician.  Seems I was wrong.

The Governator is out of control!

Arnold, are you on drugs?  Did you hit your head?  Did Skynet finally find you and fix you?  Obviously you and the state goons have not considered every avenue in reducing spending.  Take for instance the sure to be spendalicious California High Speed Rail that your state is planning on building.  Doesn't it make more sense to suspend that endeavor until the states finances are in better condition?  Straight away that would save the state approximately $65 to $80 Billion Dollars.

Just in case your not sure, consider reading the "The California High Speed Rail Proposal: A Due Diligence Report." The report projects that the final cost for the complete high-speed rail system will be $65 to $81 billion 

California's budget problem solved.  So chill out Terminator Dude, go catch some waves and quit making my case for politicians to get elected and stay home.

Mancow Proves the Sheeple Don't want to Listen with Waterboarding Stunt

Share

I'm thinking of a nursery rhyme, can you guess which one?Another interesting day in Amerika...I really don't get this debate about water-boarding, if it constitutes torture or not.  Think about this folks, do you think the CIA and other government agencies would be using it for anything else?  Perhaps they want to help that poor defenseless cave dwelling Islamic Warrior wash his hair?  Yep that's it, and I'll bet they use the anti-dandruff shampoo with tar to help heal the skin.

Quite honestly, I feel safer for its use.  When was the last time some middle-eastern muslim of arab descent between the age of 25 and 35 tried to play chicken with a twin tower?  But then we can't forget those particularly nasty white scottish grandfathers taking jumbo jet flying lessons so they can fly for United Airlines.

What's all this got to do with Mancow or Sheeple?  I used to listen to Mancow's Morning Madhouse all the time, but since I work from home and don't have the commute anymore I pretty much don't get to hear his show which is/was pretty darn funny and at times his monologues and rants made good political sense.  Recently, Mancow decided to have himself waterboarded to see if it was indeed torture.  Well, duh! 

While I applaud Mancow for making his political statement about this divisive technique which according to some has little or no value in getting all the Muhammeds to share Al-Quada's deep dark cave secrets, his "hoax" revealed a deeper problem.  That being the herd mentality that cropped up in response to his antics.  The left jumped on it as proof positive while the right condemned it and every possible shade of critique in between by even the lowliest of pundits.  And Mancow was right in saying that neither side could make up their mind as to the truth, that it is torture, albeit a necessary one. 

And We the Sheeple follow along with all this media hype, we go to work, break our bread, and our heads hit our pillows without a thought as to what our country is doing in our name with this War on Terror.  The point here isn't the technique though, it's the fact that this is just another media circus designed to keep our attention focused anywhere but where it needs to be.  Over here sheeple, no, look over there, wait... over here instead.  I hope they don't notice the 3 Trillion Dollars we just spent bailing out the tribal owned banks or that we are nationalizing (political speak for socialism or worse) big industry all in the name of change and progress.

And while the beat goes on, we refuse to up-end our neat, orderly lives for a greater good.  We won't examine the flip side of any issue either... Here’s what gets me–we’re supposed to be all upset and outraged by making terrorists think that they are drowning in order to extract information from them, but when babies are born in botched abortions, and are left to die unattended in linen closets, we’re supposed to consider THAT proper medical procedure.  Which by the way is what Dear Leader Obama wants to do with the undead aborted.

So will the sheeple continue to graze, and will the rain still falls on both the good and the wicked?  All while we Americans wonder why other countries no longer respect the US or our citizens.  Do you think its because we can't manage our own house?  Do you think they see a US government out of control?  Do you see it?  Or are you content to graze with your fellow snooty sheep and wait for that great and terrible day of the coming of the Lord.  Yes, keep grazing you Sheeple.

Last Tuesday, as President Obama got off the helicopter in front of the White House, he was carrying a baby piglet under each arm. The squared away Marine guard snaps to attention, salutes and says: "Nice pigs, sir."

The President replies: "These are not pigs...these are authentic Arkansas Razorback Hogs. I got one for Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and I got one for Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi."

The squared away Marine again snaps to attention, salutes and says, "Excellent trade, sir."

hehe...
