What an Elitist Country We Now Live In

The Left does not care about you, peasants

Rolling Stone political reporter Matt Taibbi confesses ignorance in a piece titled, “The peasant mentality lives on in America”:

It took a good long while for news of the Teabag movement to penetrate the periphery of my consciousness — I kept hearing things about it and dismissing them, sure that the whole business was some kind of joke. Like a Daily Show invention, say. It pains me to say this as an American, but we are the only people on earth dumb enough to use a nationwide campaign of “teabag parties” as a form of mass protest, in the middle of a real economic crisis.

On the other hand Pelosi thinks the Tea Party participants were among the wealthiest people in the USA.

So I suppose you can take your pick. Neither opinion is worth a tinker's dam.

Birds of a Feather......Preening Together

Obama and Chavez have apparently set aside their previous differences or else they just know a good photo op when they see one. I am so relieved Obama did not feel it necessary to bow to Chavez. /sarc

Is this some kind of secret handshake?

In January, Chavez said Obama had the same "stench" as former President Bush after Obama criticized Chavez for backing the FARC (Armed Revolutionary Forces of Columbia) guerillas in neighboring Columbia. Earlier this month during a trip to Iran, Chavez said he doubted relations would improve with the U.S. because Obama was still "president of an empire."

"I hope President Obama is the last president of the Yankee Empire, and the first president of a truly democratic republic, the United States," Chavez said, after declaring a visit to Tehran "is like arriving at one's own home."

Obama has come face to face with leftist Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, one of Washington’s fiercest critics, twice so far at the Summit of the Americas. According to a senior official, when the two men were lining up for the ceremonial entrance last night, Obama strode over to Chavez and introduced himself. After a brief chat Obama smiled and returned to his place in the line. Later that night Obama joked to reporters that he’d said “Como estas?”

This morning, at the beginning of a meeting of the Union of South American Nations, Chavez gave Obama a book: “Las Venas Abietas de America Latina” or “The Open Veins of Latin America”, a scholarly text that analyses Latin America’s dependence on the north. The media friendly Chavez waited until the press had been allowed into the room for a photo opportunity before gifting the book, which Obama accepted.

Laptop links Obama, Chavez, Colombian revolutionaries
Narco-rebels say Venezuela aiding them, more help coming from Democrat president

Hugo Chavez

WASHINGTON – A laptop computer captured in the possession of a slain Colombian revolutionary provides tangible evidence Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez is aiding the narco-rebels and that they see more help coming next year if Barack Obama becomes president.

The laptop was seized Saturday after a raid by Colombian government forces on commandos of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC. Some 23 rebels were killed in the raid, including Raul Reyes, their leader. The files on the computer provide details and context to what the Colombian government claims is Chavez's effort to subvert the U.S. ally.

Venezuela says the documents are lies. Obama's campaign has not commented on the allusions to a relationship between the Democratic presidential candidate and the Chavez-backed, drug lords of FARC.

The files reveal correspondence between the most prominent members and leaders of FARC:

Reyes, the FARC's foreign minister and public face;
Manuel Marulanda, the rebels' 77-year-old supreme leader;
Jorge Briceno, their much-feared field marshal;
Ivan Marquez, the insurgents' apparent go-between with Chavez. Marquez is believed to live in Venezuela

CBS Says Income Tax System is Broken

The Income Tax System is Broken

43 Percent Of Americans Pay No Federal Income Tax, A Sign That Something's Wrong, Writes Declan McCullagh
April 15, 2009 | by Declan McCullagh (CBS)

On April 15, don't be surprised if the line at your local post office is a bit shorter than usual. That's because your neighbors may not be paying any income taxes this year.

An astonishing 43.4 percent of Americans now pay zero or negative federal income taxes. The number of single or jointly-filing "taxpayers" - the word must be applied sparingly - who pay no taxes or receive government handouts has reached 65.6 million, out of a total of 151 million.

Those numbers come from an analysis published yesterday by the Tax Policy Center, a joint project of the Urban Institute and Brookings Institution. Neither is a low-tax or conservative advocacy group; the Urban Institute was created under the Johnson administration during the Great Society era, and it receives most of its funding from the federal government.

"You've got a larger and larger share of people paying less and less for the services provided by the federal government," says Roberton Williams, a senior fellow at the Tax Policy Center. "The concern is that the majority can say, 'Let's have more benefits, spend more,' if they're not paying for it. It's 'free.' That's not a good thing to have."

By historic standards, today's situation is an aberration. Between 1950 and 1990, the number of owe-no-money federal tax returns averaged 21 percent, dipping to 18 percent in 1986, according to Tax Foundation data. In the 1990s, the owe-no-money percentage hovered around 25 percent of taxpayers.

Send CNN a Message

Go here and send a message online to the appropriate agency at CNN.

http://www.cnn.com/feedback/

I sent this to the CNN Political News:

You need to fire Susan Roesgen for her behavior toward the Illinois gentleman with the two year old. I have never seen a reporter so rude!!!

Also Anderson Cooper for talking nasty slang and Keith Olberman just for being Keith Olberman.

They are all a disgrace to the journalism profession.

Also write to their advertisers because that is who they will listen to. Believe me; a conservative's money is just as good as a liberals and often due to our conservative habits, we have more of it. So if they want someone to buy their products they need to advertise with a decent news agency, not one staffed by unprofessional goof offs.

CNN Reporter Susan Roesgen Encounters "Populist Rage" From a Two Year Old

Hat Tip: Alamo City Pundit

CNN and all the rest of the liberals are trying to turn the Anti-Tax Tea Party Protests into "populist rage". Just as Newsweek put an old photograph on their cover a couple of weeks ago of an angry mob turning out with pitchforks to illustrate POPULISM. I am sure the photo was from an old horror movie.

It certainly doesn't illustrate populism. See my related article:
