Do we need some form of gun control? Today’s headline in the Washington Times was, Colorado voters deal blow to gun control with stunning recall of 2 Democrats, By Valerie Richardson-The Washington Times.

Read some of the comments by those who have read the article. Then, ask yourself, “Are these the people we should trust carrying loaded, semi-automatic guns with large clips?”

• Bloomberg is crying tonight.
He should stick to his idiotic holy war against large sodas and table salt because Americans still love their constitutional rights.

• Yeah, the COURTS decided they did not care for his NAZI tactics, all Radical Dems are nothing but Commies, and potential terrorists,count on them to always TAKE away your rights, always.
Just look at what we have for an excuse for a POTUS.A freaking Socialist Radical.

• Though he is a socialist radical, and that can’t be denied — it’s becoming apparent that he’s even more ominous. According to the now betrayed Egyptian faction of the Muslim Brotherhood – Obama is a member of the Islamic Brotherhood. When you consider his policies it gives credence to that.

In Egypt he ousts our ally and invites in the Brotherhood. When the people of Egypt threw out Morsi, Obama didn’t applaud. He brooded quietly to see if he could help the deposed faction return to power. He took out the neutered, reformed, terrified-into-behaving-well Kadaffi and let the Muslim Brotherhood have Libya.

All these middle eastern leaders are tyrants, Assad no less so — but here again he wants to help the Brotherhood and its coalition of terrorist groups. The tyrants are the only option in nations infested with Islamic extremism. He knows that. He knows that removing dictators brings a new member to the coalition that will form the Caliphate. We are dealing with evil of monumental proportions. Have you heard one single syllable of regret or alarm that Christians are being killed. No, you haven’t. Obama posed as a Christian for political advantage. He’s a cold-blooded liar, which is why his lies are not visible to most. He killed Osama, he likes to say. That proves nothing. When one Mafia don kills another it isn’t proof that he’s not a mafiosa — it’s proof that he is.

When O was first elected the O’Reillys of the world said they “weren’t buyin’ it,” that he was a socialist. Now communist is a more appropriate term and Islamic radical is gaining plausibility.

• Obama had two moslem Fathers. What were they Sheite or Sunni. What group is the Brotherhood… just asking.

• Its what propagandists and Democrats do, they twist words and deny, they go by their god Alinsky the Communist.

• Thanks to Bloomberg and Democrats like these two freshly recalled, I buy one box of my favorite ammo less every month and donate the amount to the NRA instead so they can keep up the good fight.

There were four million of us prior to 2012 elections. There are five million of us now. There are 95 million as yet unaffiliated gun-owners and altogether we legally own 300 million guns (and growing).

You guys are doing a bang-up job motivating us to safeguard our rights.

• It was the will of the people against big out of state government and going against the Constitution of the United States. Unless the Democrats roll back Senator Feinstein’s and Janet Reno’s Gun Free Zone that has drawn kid killers out of the woodwork there will be more elections like this. Get rid of “Gun Free Zone’s” before there is another massacre of innocents, what does the Democrats want, more bodies? Democrats are still making schools targets for the deranged.

• YOU got it, WHERE have all the heinous attacks happened?,in GUN FREE ZONES.
What cities and states have the higjest murder rates,the one’s with the toughest gun control laws.

• If you think the 2nd Amendment is evil, you probably don’t have much respect for the 1st Amendment either, and in your case, it shows!

• I have never said the Second Amendment is evil. I think the second amendment is a valuable one, however, I think some gun-toting nuts are too extreme with their guns. We have guns in our home – both handguns and rifles -but, I don’t feel I need a 50 bullet clip to shoot. If I did, I would need to go back to the shooting range.

• If you don’t want those fine. I do. So mind your own freakin business!

Bottom line, gun control laws are bad because:

1. Bloomberg is against salt and soft drinks

2. Bloomberg uses NAZI tactics. People who want gun control are Radical Dems, commies and potential terrorists and Obama is a Socialist, Islamic Radical

3. Obama is a member of the Muslim Brotherhood, a communist and a socialist – and he had two moslem Fathers.

4. Propagandists and Democrats go by their god, Alinsky the Communist

5. GUN FREE zones draw kid killers out of the woodwork

6. The cities and states with the highest murder rates have the toughest gun laws.

Who could deny such impeccable logic?

Visualize these folks carrying guns. Visualize getting into an argument with them, perhaps in a bar or while driving. Visualize them being really, really angry at you.

Pray the Supreme Court would step in to protect you.

God is in his heaven and all is well with the world:

Larry Summers Withdraws Name From Fed Consideration
Julie Pace & Martin Crutsinger, September 15, 2013

Summers’ withdrawal followed growing resistance from critics, including some members of the Senate committee that would need to back his nomination.

Even the politicians and Barack Obama couldn’t handle the heat from sheer truth: Larry would have been the worst choice imaginable (along with his pals, Moe and Curly.)

Summers’s “withdrawal” is a Godsend that probably went something like this:

(Obama: “Larry, appointing you would be too stupid even for me, so you’ll have to, ahem, ‘withdraw.'”)

(Summers: “Gee, do I have to? If you make me quit, I won’t contribute to your Obama Presidential Library.”)

(Obama: “I don’t care, now that I have Penny Pritzker.”)

(Summers: “Well, O.K., but please don’t appoint a women. As you know, women aren’t capable.”)

This leaves us with the question of whom to appoint. I’ve seen a couple mentions of Warren Mosler’s name as a candidate for Fed Chairman — not exactly a groundswell, but at least a handful of people are thinking correctly.

Warren would be terrific, and the country would benefit greatly. I suggest that you contact your politicians and everyone you know, and tell them to contact their politicians and everyone they know — TODAY — and suggest, no, DEMAND, that Warren Mosler be our next Fed Chairman.

At long last, install sanity in the Federal Reserve and Congress and the White House.

======================================================================================================================================================================================

Cynthia Tucker, winner of the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for commentary and a visiting professor at the University of Georgia, wrote a blog post from which we’ll quote a few passages:

Last month, the GOP-dominated House passed an agriculture bill that omitted funding for the food stamp program — partly because the Republican caucus disagreed over whether cuts to the program should be merely harsh or extremely severe.

Not so long ago, hardliners sought to cloak this sort of cruelty in the language of the greater good: the need to reduce government spending. But last month’s bill didn’t even attempt that pretense: It included billions in agricultural subsidies for wealthy farming interests, including some Republican members of Congress.

Of course, the “need” to reduce government spending is in itself a lie that is cloaked. There is absolutely no such need.

In fact, reductions in government spending lead to recessions and depressions, while increases in government spending lead to recoveries. The reason is straightforward: Mathematically: Gross Domestic Product = Federal Spending + Non-federal Spending + Net Exports.

Basic algebra shows that reduced federal spending growth must result in reduced GDP growth. No economic mechanism exists whereby spending decreases can increase economic growth.

Spending decreases increase the gap between the rich and the rest — which is why those politicians most bribed by the rich are most in favor of reductions in federal deficit spending.

Further, no one pays for federal deficit spending — neither taxpayers, nor taxpayers’ children nor grandchildren. Not now. Not in the future. No one pays anything. That’s the way it works in a Monetarily Sovereign government.

So why does the middle class resent cost-free federal spending for food stamps, unemployment compensation and other forms of welfare?

About 20 percent of [Atlanta Food Bank] beneficiaries report that this is the first time they’ve ever asked for assistance from government or charitable programs. Among them are people who once belonged to the secure middle class; some were formerly donors or volunteers at the food bank.

Bill Bolling, founder and executive director of the Atlanta Community Food Bank, said, “They’re keeping their part of the social contract. They are getting up every day and going to a job, maybe two jobs. If a man gets up and goes to work every day, I don’t care what his job is, he ought to be able to feed his family.”

And a government, having the unlimited ability to create money, ought to help its citizens feed their families. But, of course, that is not want the rich want. Destitution and desperation help build a large servant class for the rich.

Conservative critics speak contemptuously of those struggling to make ends meet, to describe a lazy “47 percent” who want nothing but handouts, to dismiss those who can’t make ends meet as responsible for their own hard luck.

Some of that hostility toward struggling Americans can be explained by a racial antagonism that presumes that most of them are black or brown.

That’s the “food stamp mama” image implanted in the public’s mind, by the rich-owned media — a false image as it turns out.

Programs like food stamps are understood by whites to largely benefit shiftless black people.

[But] the Great Recession laid waste to the finances of many white families, too. They (whites) account for about 35.5 percent of food stamp recipients. Black Americans are disproportionately represented, but account for only about 23 percent. Latinos account for about 10 percent of recipients

The motivation of the rich to bully the middle and lower classes is clear: To widen the income/wealth/power gap. But why is the middle class so ready to join in the bullying?

And that is the key word: “Bullying.” Children do it. When a weak child is bullied by a strong child, many others will join in. Why?

Not being a professional psychologist, I can only guess that the motive is self-protection. A child may feel the need to distance himself from the weak and to align himself with the strong. If he can join in kicking the weak, he himself will not be kicked, and he even may gain approval from the strong.

So we have the spectacle of middle- and even lower-income people sneering at those receiving food stamps, unemployment payments or other poverty-associated benefits, when they themselves soon may need such benefits. It’s illogical, but instinctive, and instinct beats logic every time.

Instinct allows the so-called “religious” right to turn people against themselves. The populace actively wants to believe those right-wing lies that the poor are worthless, good-for-nothings, who would rather wallow in poverty and feed from the government trough, than work to earn an income.

This belief supplies the weak with a justification for bullying the weaker.

I know such people. A couple are even in my own family. I’ve found that no facts, no statistics, no logical proofs will sway them. They simply know in their hearts that the poor must be treated with a firm, ruthless hand to “teach them a lesson” and to keep them from “beating the system.”

Thus as the rich watch laughing, the middle-class does their dirty work, an effort that always turns back against the middle.

The middle class is finding that what goes around, comes around. Will the lesson never be learned?

If President Obama’s appointment of billionaire Penny Pritzker wasn’t sufficient evidence . . . If his “Grand Bargain” and his FICA increase didn’t do it for you . . .

If his oft-repeated desire to cut Social Security and his false claim that the government must live within its means, just like you and me, wasn’t conclusive . . . And if his failure to adopt or even discuss Medicare for All (vs. Obamacare) could simply be attributed to ignorance and not to bribery . . .

And despite the fact that all of the above help widen the gap between the rich and the rest, you need even more evidence of bribery by the rich, (via campaign contributions and promises of lucrative employment later), here is yet one more clue:

Obama set to name Summers as Fed chief: report

U.S. President Barack Obama plans to name former U.S. Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers as the next chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve Board of Governors, according to a report Friday by Japanese newspaper Nikkei, which cited unnamed sources. An announcement is expected as early as late next week, following the conclusion of the Fed’s policy meeting on Wednesday.

Yes, that Larry Summers, the guy who has screwed up every job he has held and has favored the moneyed crowd at every turn, and as a result, has been promoted to even more prestigious jobs.

Click on his name and you will see what he is all about: Larry Summers

To appoint Summers is to tell the world, “I don’t give a damn what happens to the middle- and lower-income groups in America. I just want to suck up to the rich, so that Penny will build me a nice, big Obama library in Chicago.

What an abject failure Obama has been. What a disappointment to those who elected him. What a sad Presidency.

What next? Repeatedly change course on Syria? (Oops. Done that, already.)

Watch GINI make a big leap.
