Nobody’s Fool: Mark Twain
Nobody’s Fool
After the Civil War and up until WWI, American went into a great ‘transformation.’ The cities exploded with factories, and new technologies, and the idealistic American dream of the lone rugged individual of the founders…were being uprooted. Big politics and big business came crashing in on the new dispensations: Tammany Hall, and the stock manipulators brought about “Black Friday” in 1869. Labor strikes came in 1873, and 1876. In 1886, there were more labor strikes in Chicago.
We went from an agrarian society to an industrial one. Then we got the oil and steel tycoons, and the start of the big humongous multinationals conglomerates we have today.
And one guy, had this to say:
“The eight years in America from 1860 to 1868 uprooted institutions that were centuries old, changed the politics of a people, transformed the social life of half the country, and wrought so profoundly upon the entire national character that the influence cannot be measured.” –Mark Twain
Nobody suggests that if you change those dates to 1992-2012, that statement would very much fit what we are seeing in America today.
We have gone from an agrarian society to a “service” one. (By design) 
America is more fascistic, the people more divided and diverse, our freedoms vanishing, and almost all of our institutions: the family, the churches, our government, and our schools, have been changed so profoundly upon the entire national character…that the influence cannot be measured.
Obama, and many of the globalists, want to change the national character. No more melting pot. No more America.
No need to offend others. 
What would Mark Twain have to say about Obama?
“When angry, count four: when very angry, swear.”
They have “banned” Twain’s masterpiece Huckleberry Finn from our kids…but, it was one of the most profound books against slavery ever written, which brings me to another Mark Twain quote:
“All you need in life is ignorance and confidence, then success is assured.”
So THAT’s how he became President.
Thanks Mr. Twain. 
Nobody Wonders About Global Clusters
Nobody Wonders
Earth is such a itty bitty tiny, not even a speck of a bother, in the vast universe, and so Nobody Wonders just exactly what Globular Clusters are…this is the Sombrero Galaxy and it’s surrounded by 136 clusters. (photo by Rolf Wahl). Whenever things here on Earth get too wacked out, I simply go and stare at “globular galaxy” pictures and everything comes into perspective….some people do Yoga. I…stare at Galaxies.
Sort of looks like a floating jelly fish coming up to the surface….beautiful.
Executive Orders: Paint it Black
Nobody Knows:
When Madonna decides to show her nipple in Turkey, why in the world would anyone care to know just WHY a President would have to sign…all these executive orders? Nobody Knows:
Executive Order 10990 allows the government to take over all modes of transportation and control of highways and seaports. (That way Obama can get all his Muslim friends out on planes…something George Bush did after 9/11. Also, if he doesn’t want you to leave the city, you will not be allowed to. Nice to know…start digging that hole.)
Executive Order 10995 allows the government to seize and control the communication media.(Yeah, and Nobody bets Rush Limbaugh will be the first to be taken over.) 
Executive Order 10997 allows the government to take over all electrical power, gas, petroleum, fuels, and minerals. (You think you will be driving in that truck that you piled high with guns, gas, and food in order to go to that cabin in the mountains? THINK AGAIN! Also, better throw grandma’s diamond in the hole…)
Executive Order 10998 allows the government to take over all food resources and farms. (And that will include your backyard cucumbers….Michelle will be there personally to collect. That hole is going to need beer. ) 
Executive Order 11000 allows the government to mobilize civilians into work brigades under government supervision. (So, Obama gives himself the power to make any person in the United States go to work picking those tomatoes the Feds might have missed. Better make that a BIG hole. )
Executive Order 11001 allows the government to take over all health, education, and welfare functions. (Uh…why is this an order? This is already in place.)
Executive Order 11002 designates the Postmaster General to operate a national registration of all persons. (Social Security Numbers can be stolen: Forehead barcodes–666!) 
Executive Order 11003 allows the government to take over all airports and aircraft, including commercial aircraft. (Okay…why would you need all the airplanes in the country again?)
Executive Order 11004 allows the Housing and Finance Authority to relocate communities, build new housing with public funds, designate areas to be abandoned, and establish new locations for populations. (Detroit will be relocated to Miami Beach.)
Executive Order 11005 allows the government to take over railroads, inland waterways and public storage facilities. (The Army will be floating down the Mississippi!) 
Executive Order 11049 assigns emergency preparedness function to federal departments and agencies, consolidating 21 operative Executive Orders issued over a fifteen-year period. (Every President wants just to have ONE department to answer to…his.)
Executive Order 11051 specifies theresponsibility of the Office of Emergency Planning and gives authorization to put all Executive Orders into effect in times of increased international tensions and economic or financial crisis. (Okay, who decides just exactly what the definition of increased international tensions is? What if Iran bombed Israel, but not us? Would Obama put in all his executive orders? And is he trying to cause this financial crisis?Well, yeah. Who comes out on top in this?)
Executive Order 11310 grants authority to the Department of Justice to enforce the plans set out in Executive Orders, to institute industrial support, to establish judicial and legislative liaison, to control all aliens, to operate penal and correctional institutions, and to advise and assist the President. (First off, they can’t “control” the aliens now…and second—How safe do you feel with Obama giving the job of arresting sheriff to Eric Holder? I’ll be painting myself black. ) 
Executive Order 11921 allows the Federal Emergency Preparedness Agency to develop plans to establish control over the mechanisms of production and distribution, of energy sources, wages, salaries, credit and the flow of money in the U.S. financial institution in any undefined national emergency. It also provides that when a state of emergency is declared by the President, Congress cannot review the action for six months.
Is that how he will grab the RICHES of the RICH?
Key words here: “undefined national emergency” which means the national emergency is anything the President deems it, and Congress can’t do a thing about it but hand over the whole country to the new Hitler.
Now…if you wonder like me why these executive orders were not blasted all over the news on the day they were signed, and you don’t care that these executive orders are among the most tyrannical rules ever put into law by one man, and digging a hole is not your idea of a fun time on a Saturday in June… then go ahead…you just want to see Madonna’s nipple?
Go here…Don’t worry…Be happy…do..dododo..do. do de dodedo…
I’m STILL Laughing…
Nobody Flashes
Remember that song by Elton John called “I’m still standing?”
Well…I’m still laughing after watching this.
Protecting Obama’s Back
Nobody Reports
If you are white, you will probably miss this ad put out by Obama to the black people to “protect his back” –He is asking for four more years of his continuing policies…of free stuff.
His big promise? He will get them college loans. What he doesn’t tell them, is that when they and IF they get out of college, the job market will be even worse than it is today, and what little jobs that will be left will go to the illegal Mexicans! You might have a degree, but you will have to move to China to get a job.
And as for keeping you on his Obamacare, even if you’re black, if you are over 60 and get cancer…you will have to wait in line for treatment just like the white people.
BUT…Obama wants YOU to protect his back!
And what does that back look like?
Nobody’s Perfect: Rivers VS Rickles Vs Lovitz
Nobody’s Perfect
In Hollywood, if you’re not a democrat, you are pretty much run out-of-town, and very few comedians can ignore an election year. Let’s compare shall we, three comedians and their opinions about Obama, and see which one is the MOST perfect:
FIRST: Joan Rivers…never met a liposuction she didn’t want, or an ugly dress she could ignore. Here she critiques the ongoing Republican race for the White House, and notice, when she finally criticizes Obama, Jane Lynch comes in to defend his gray hair. (?)
And then they both “bond” in their feminists glory of being born with uteruses…as if the man has no rights…He’s just a sperm walking–and then they go into the sex jokes…
I’m beginning to think they don’t have any…sex that is. I still like Joan Rivers, but she deserves to stay on the women’s channels, where she can talk about sex changes and viagra to her hearts content.
SECOND: You don’t go on David Letterman and cut down Obama, but that’s exactly what Don Rickles did…and when the Liberal audience was offended, he didn’t care. I’d say, Don Rickles has one up on Joan Rivers, in fact, Nobody would like better than to see Don Rickles tell a few Obama jokes to Joan Rivers.
THIRD: I saved the best for last. John Lovitz is a hilarious actor. His portrayal in the Wedding Singer of a band disco singer was so true to life, I almost couldn’t believe he was not some of the people I’ve seen on karaoke stages. But here, he really lets it go here, about how unfair it is to work hard, and then have a President who wants to take it away.
Lovitz wins the “Nobody’s Perfect, but You’re Pretty Close Award” for the week. This Nobody has now become an even BIGGER fan, and even Lovitz says the offers are pouring in from everywhere.
The contest—- wasn’t even close.
Nobody Flashes the Orvillecoprter
Nobody Flashes
Would you take your dead cat and make a remote-controlled helicopter out of it, and put it on the market for #$125 thousand dollars? Well…maybe you wouldn’t, but Bart Janen, (Dutch) decided it would be really fun.
He can fly his pet around the room, and take it outside and swoop the local dogs and neighbor kids. He called his “invention” the orvillecopter, after the dead cat, whose name was, you guessed it, Orville. Nobody is sure that this new product will catch on, but it’s worth a flash.
Would YOU do it for 125 thousand?’
Need I ask? 
Nobody’s Opinion of George H.W. Bush
Nobody’s Opinion
Fox News had a special on tonight..a tribute to X-President George Herbert Walker Bush, on his 88th birthday, which is Tuesday. It was so lovingly produced that one can only suppose the powerful Bush family and Karl Rove did it up special for the old guy.
Somewhere in the “tribute” they accorded George H.W. Bush’s loss to Bill Clinton due to Ross Perot, but many true conservatives like me, were shocked at the time, to see Ross lose to Bush, who was by all accounts, not much more memorable than the innocuous Gerald Ford.
Daddy Bush has the personality of a friendly ferret, but he had vast political connections, thanks to Prescott Bush…a subject of many books.
When Bush ran, he was elected primarily on the coat wings of Ronald Reagan, who was so beloved, that if “Ronnie” (As Nancy so endearingly called him) had told us all to vote for Yoko Ono, we probably would have.(On condition that she wouldn’t sing.)
I don’t remember anybody really getting excited about 41. He talked with an annoying nasal, reprimanding voice, and was nothing like the dynamic Reagan. To me he looked more like an insurance salesman. He was pretty boring, until ..Desert Storm.
When Daddy Bush came on TV and claimed our “victory” over Saddam, I was in a bar, and I was the ONLY person in that bar who was not cheering at the sight of the bombers flying in celebration. I thought it all a big show for Bush. Sure, the Bush’s always give the credit to the little guy—(Unlike the ego currently in the White House) but don’t think for a minute that they aren’t trying to write stupendous history for themselves. Like the movie stars, they pay people to work on their “brand.”
Nobody was thinking at the time, how hard WAS it to repeal some little country like Iraq? Reagan had left him with a great military. I hated the way Bush acted as if he had gone and saved a poor little defenseless country—even if he did. 
Vietnam, left my generation war weary…and I was one of those people who could not see why any of our leaders go around the world “defending” anyone. …unless of course it’s Britain.
But Desert Storm was sold the way wars are always sold..with noble platitudes…instead of what they are mostly about: protecting U.S. interests, and in that case, it really was about oil, (BP) which by the way, Bush knew a lot about having become a millionaire in the oil business by the time he was 40.
We had a deal with the Saudis Kings. We protect them, they supply us…and in return they keep the OPEC prices reasonable. That was okay— so why not say so? (Wouldn’t you like to know what REALLY goes on behind closed door?)
Daddy Bush always kept that “Aw…sucks, I’m just a little old country boy at heart” game face on. (Which his son mastered with much better technique) But as the years go by, in hindsight…it was Daddy Bush that took us down that “New World Order” road of globalization, which has done untold damage to our country.
When George H.W. was running for President, they didn’t even mention his past hardly at all. All America needed to know was that he was going to carry on Reagan’s policies. Dukakis was weaker than John McCain—he couldn’t lose. And unlike Obama, Daddy Bush was almost overqualified to be President.
Tell me: How many men in the world in one lifetime hold so many top positions before he became President? He was an ambassador to the United Nations, the Chairman of the Republican National Committee, U.S. envoy to China, Director of the CIA, Head of the International Bank, Director of the Foreign Council of Relations, Vice President, then President.
It was the Bush family who pushed us headlong into NAFTA.
Bush’s administration, along with the Progressive Conservative Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, spearheaded the negotiations of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which would eliminate the majority of tariffs on products traded among the United States, Canada, and Mexico, to encourage trade amongst the countries.[70] The treaty also restricts patents, copyrights, and trademarks, and outlines the removal of investment restrictions among the three countries.[70]
You can thank your rotten bananas for that one.
Perot TRIED to warn the American people what would happen to us if we got into NAFTA. Jobs would exit the U.S. like water pouring out of a sieve he said, and he was right. An army of black helicopters shut him up.
What is terribly sad about all this, is we are coming right back into the Bush dynasty again…which is the Rockefeller Rhino Club— “One World Government” party that is running the show. There are a handful of globalists at the top, and they never leave the control. Mitt might be in the White House, but in the background will be the Bush family. Like Putin…waiting for the day when they get the Presidency again.(Jeb?) And then Hillary in 2016? And Obama will go..where…to the United Nations? 
And he’s the worst of them all. (Obama)
(Does anyone else want to GET OFF THIS NEW WORLD ORDER GLOBAL BOAT of EGO NUTJOBS!? AHHHHHHHHHHH!)
At the end of the tribute tonight, it was obvious that the Bush family wanted Daddy’s Bush’s legacy to be getting people to “serve”..They were proud that Bush 41 had gotten 100 million people to “volunteer” their time serving other people.
(That’s his Legacy?)
Jimmy Carter would be proud….Karl Marx would be proud: Obama would be proud…Bob Dylan would be proud…
Why mention this at all? Wait for it…wait for it…
There will be a day when mandatory “service” will be required of all American citizens, and BOTH heads of both parties will be behind it. Now…be good little boys and girls and volunteer to help your neighbor…or else.
Come on Joyanna, that’s will NEVER happen…
Well… did you know that the real reason Obama made 9/11 a “day of service” is because an X President named George Herbert Walker Bush, wanted it?
Gee…why didn’t Obama tell us that? (Who RUNS these people? )
The only “service” we should be giving on 9/11 is our humble service to the families who lost loved ones that day.
It’s about time our Presidents started “serving ” the American people.
ALL of them.
On Tuesday, there might be alot obout Daddy Bush’s great legacy…and feel free to celebrate a President who by all accounts, was better than any democrat…go ahead…but THIS Nobody is holding out for the 4th.
Nobody’s Email: What Germans REALLY Think of Obama
Nobody Gets Email
It might surprise anyone living outside the United States that Americans hardly EVER see anyone outside our country criticizing any U.S. President by our media…On the contrary, we are told that Obama is worshipped the world over. The only place you can find the truth, is on the internet…as in this email.
(Thanks to Pattie)
******
You can bet the pro Obama media will never print these pictures! A chuckle amidst the insanity…the world is laughing at our government and the corruption. These floats were part of the annual Carnival Parade in Germany watched by an estimated 3 million people in 3 German cities including Dusseldorf. 
“There are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation: One is by sword, the other by debt” …John Adams 1826
“You cannot strengthen the weak, by weakening the strong.” A. Lincoln
“When injustice becomes law, then resistance becomes duty.” T. Jefferson
To Finally Go, Where Ray Bradbury Took Us…
Nobody Cares
Many Mar’s moons ago, I used to read a lot of Science Fiction..and Ray Bradbury was at the top of my reading list. Now I read mostly about politics, so you see things haven’t changed much.
As you may have heard, Ray Bradbury, the man who wrote so much great stuff, passed away, but not before he got to actually DRIVE the Mars Rover…something the he had inspired. Great spirits, and great imaginations, are products of the individual who dares to never grow old. His grandson said he never met a bigger kid.
Ray did not like the new direction of books on the internet though. He had this to say:
Those aren’t books. You can’t hold a computer in your hand like you can a book. A computer does not smell… A book has got to smell. You have to hold it in your hands and pray to it. You put it in your pocket and you walk with it. And it stays with you forever. But the computer doesn’t do that for you. I’m sorry.
It will be a sad day when the “book” is outlawed…and no doubt by Bloomberg if he keeps going. Nobody Thinks…Ray left a galaxy of wonderment for generations to come….
And that’s the mark of a true star.
Nobody Remembers the History of the Horse’s…Behind
Nobody Remembers
Here’s an email that tells you an interesting bit of fun in history and since it’s Friday,…and the “horses’ a$%- ” was just on TV…I thought it was too fun to pass up.
Enjoy! (Thanks to Tom Beebe) 
***************
The U.S. Standard railroad gauge (distance between the rails) is 4 feet, 8.5 inches. That’s anexceedingly odd number. Why was that gauge used? Because that’s the way they built them in England, and English expatriates designed the U.S. Railroads.
Why did the English build them like that?
Because the first rail lines were built by the same people who built the pre-railroad tramways, and that’s the gauge they used.
Why did ‘they’ use that gauge then?
Because the people who built the tramways used the same jugs and tools that they had used for building wagons, which used that wheel spacing. Why did the wagons have that particular odd wheel spacing?
Well if they tried to use any other spacing, the wagon wheels would break on some old, long distance roads in England, because that’s the spacing of the wheel ruts. 
So, who built those old rutted roads?
Imperial Rome built the first long distance roads in Europe (including England) for their legions.
Those roads have been used ever since.
And the ruts in the roads?
Roman war chariots formed the initial ruts which everyone else had to match for fear of destroying their wagon wheels.
Since the chariots were made for Imperial Rome, they were all alike in the matter of wheel spacing. Therefore, the United States standard railroad gauge of 4 feet, 8.5 inches is derived from the original specifications for an Imperial Roman war chariot. In other words, bureaucracies live forever.
So, the next time you are handed a specification, procedure, or process, and wonder, ‘What horse’s ass–came up with this?’, you may be exactly right.
Imperial Roman army chariots were made just wide enough to accommodate the rear ends of two war horses. 
Now, the twist to the story:
When you see (have seen) a Space Shuttle sitting on its launch pad, you will notice that there are two big booster rockets attached to the sides of the main fuel tank. These are solid rocket boosters, or SRBs. The SRBs are made by Thiokol at their factory in Utah. The engineers who designed the SRBs would have preferred to make them a bit larger, but the SRBs had to be shipped by train from factory to the launch site. The railroad line from the factory happens to run through a tunnel in the mountains, and the SRBs had to fit through that tunnel. The tunnel is slightly wider than the railroad track, and the railroad track, as you now know, is about as wide as two horses’ behinds. 
So, a major Space Shuttle design feature of what is arguably the world’s most advanced transportation system was determined over two thousand years ago by the width of a horse’s ass. And YOU thought being a horse’s ass wasn’t important!
Now you know, horses’ass control almost everything..explains a lot of stuff doesn’t it?
And I haven’t even begun to talk about Washington D.C. 
Nobody’s Fool: David Horowitz
Nobody’s Fool: David Horowitz
Whenever I hear one of my friends say they “voted” for Obama, I can’t for the life of me figure out that they didn’t see that he was….trouble. Once in power, he has revealed, from his own lips, his Marxists tendencies. He hides his ties with leftist/Marxist buddies, but he still has them all over his administration. So I realized the reason my friends voted for Obama is because they have never really learned the real difference between a democracy, a Republic, communism, socialism, Marxism or fascism.
Oh sure, they’ve heard the words…but I’m sure none of them ever believed in a million years any of that could happen in America. They believe everything they pretty much hear on TV.
That ignorance has been by design.
His parents were communists, whose self-stated goal is combating “leftist indoctrination” in academia. Phil and Blanche Horowitz were long-standing members of the American Communist Party and avid supporters of Joseph Stalin. For nearly a decade, Horowitz’s rejection of Marx remained a private matter. In the spring of 1985, however, Horowitz and longtime collaborator Peter Collier wrote an article for the Washington Post entitled, Goodbye to All That. The article explained their change of views and recent decision to vote for President Ronald Reagan (Wikipedia)
Nobody explains why ‘social justice’ is not what we want better than David:
Far from being progressive, the left’s demands for ‘social justice’, if realized, would destroy the very basis of social wealth…In the modern world, competition is not the contrary of cooperation, but the form that cooperation must take in order to coordinate the activities of millions of people unknown to each other, pursuing goals that are not common and cannot be shared. The profit margin is the engine of wealth not only for the rich but for the poor was well. In the real world, the attempt to plan economic systems produces inefficiency and waste: the attempt to redistribute wealth diminishes well being and individual liberty: the attempt to unify society crushes its freedom: the ambition to make people equal establishes new forms of tyranny and submerges human individuality in totalitarian designs.
Yes, the progressives are really Marxists in disguise. Hard to believe, I know, because Hillary Clinton says she is a proud progressive…and we also have a bucket load of them in Congress, which Allen West pointed out. 
To which Bill Clinton came out right away to nip that in the bud. How DARE he even suggest it! The last thing the progressives want the Americans to know in an election year, is that they believe in the Marxists redistribution/communist party that founded them. So..watch Bill as he protests too much…And you will realize, why many of my friends will vote for Obama…again…(sigh) Nobody Thinks, we need more Davids.
NO…these are NOT the droids you are looking for…
Voter Sewer Scare Tactics
Nobody Wins
Last Tuesday, all eyes were on Wisconsin, and so were mine. So when I went to vote Tuesday at my local police station..I had NO idea what we were voting on. The parking lot was packed: Wow, I thought to myself, must be something important on the ballot!”
As I was walking up, I spotted one of my swimming buddies and her mom. “MOM” wanted to vote. And I had to admire her spunk because she had a walker, and had quite a ways to walk…and walking wasn’t exactly an easy thing for her to do.
“So, what’s on the ballot?” I asked.
“Oh…you HAVE to vote yes!” said ‘Mom’. Everyone told me if we don’t, our rates will go sky high!”
And so, on the doorway, I looked and saw what we were voting on:
To comply with federal and state clean water requirements, shall The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District (MSD) issue its sewer revenue bonds in the amount of Nine Hundred Forty Five Million Dollars ($945,000,000) for the purpose of designing, constructing, improving, renovating, repairing, replacing and equipping new and existing MSD sewer and drainage facilities and systems, including sewage treatment and disposal plants, sanitary sewers, and acquisition of easements and real property—
related thereto, the cost of operation and maintenance of said facilities and systems and the principal of and interest on said revenue bonds to be payable solely from the revenues derived by MSD from the operation of its wastewater sewer system,including all future extensions and improvements thereto?——YES NO
THE METROPOLITAN ST. LOUIS SEWER DISTRICT – CHARTER AMENDMENT ELECTION SIMPLE MAJORITY REQUIRED
*****
PROPOSITION 1 Shall Article 2 of the Plan (Charter) of The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District be amended to provide that the portion of the boundaries of the District that are located within St. Louis County shall be as described in records kept in the office of the Secretary-Treasurer of the District and no longer required to be contained in the text of the Plan? —YES NO
*****
(What? It goes into some office and is no longer required to be contained in the “text” of the Plan? What if I want to read the “test” of the plan? That doesn’t sound good. Does that mean the Secretary only gets to see it? )
*****
THE METROPOLITAN ST. LOUIS SEWER DISTRICT – CHARTE AMENDMENT ELECTION SIMPLE MAJORITY REQUIRED
*****
PROPOSITION 2 Shall Articles 3 and 9 of the Plan (Charter) of The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District be amended to (a) establish procedural requirements relating to the formation of sub districts within the District and the design, construction and funding of improvements in such subdistricts, and (b) establish the method for levying special benefit assessments, all subject to a vote of the property owners in the affected subdistricts?—YES NO
*****
(Yes, the property owners DO need to vote..but will we be reading this same Turkey gobble?)
*****
THE METROPOLITAN ST. LOUIS SEWER DISTRICT – CHARTER AMENDMENT ELECTION SIMPLE MAJORITY REQUIRED
*****
PROPOSITION 3 Shall Article 3 of the Plan (Charter) of The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District relating to powers of the District be amended to (a) permit the District to establish environmentally sustainable standards and practices, and (b) clarify the existing authority of the District to enter into contracts pertaining to stormwater facilities?—YES NO
*****
(Okay, this smacks of Al Gore. Does this mean the DISTRICT gets to establish environmental sustainable standards and practices, and will be able to tell us all to get windmills to run our sewers? Well, how would YOU take this?) 
*****
THE METROPOLITAN ST. LOUIS SEWER DISTRICT – CHARTER AMENDMENT ELECTION SIMPLE MAJORITY REQUIRED
*****
PROPOSITION 4 Shall Articles 5, 7 and 10 of the Plan (Charter) of The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District be amended to provide that notice of the expiration of the term of office of a Director, notice of tax levy hearings, notice of proposed rate changes, and notice of elections under the Plan (Charter) shall be given by mail, publication or electronic media, or such other form of communication as may be permitted by Missouri law?–YES NO
*****
(You have to wonder, they don’t do this now? Well..so what if they NOTICE us? )
******************************************************************
After my “shock”, I looked in the empty room…where I saw one man, and four ladies sitting at a table. Besides “mom” I was the only voter there. “Uh, can anyone here tell me what this gobblegook really means?” I asked. “I haven’t heard a lick about this on the local news, and this is like legalize from Russia.”
****
The man came over to me, with an understanding and sympathetic look on his face. I could tell he was just as confused as I was about the whole thing. “I know, I’m sorry, we are not allowed to say anything.” he said.
****
Then, over she came…the dragon liberal lady. The grand puba of the room: She looked me straight in the eye, and said, “You don’t HAVE to vote.” Right. I came here because I was bored.
****
“Of course I have to vote. I live here.” I said to her in a half cocked angry voice. If a liberal wants it to pass, then right away I’m suspect. I’d vote just to spite her. But, by the time I got my ballot, I figured my vote wouldn’t count at all. No one was here. They didn’t advertize this much, and they wrote the whole thing in such confusing language anyone could interpreted in any fashion.
****
Is this how they are cramming the green energy down everyone’s thoat all over America? I knew it was already a done deal. They talk about the “blacks” being disenfranchised in America, but when they hold voting on a Tuesday, and don’t even talk about the issues, and then write it as unintelligible as possibly, so you don’t really know what it means..and then threaten you if you DON’T pass your new high rates, you will be sorry.
****
Nobody Wins. Comrades. America loses.
What can you say besides…thank you so much for your son and his service? It made me very sad…lost generations. This poor lady thinks she did the right thing…her bills will go up, and she just voted for them too.
****
Tonight, when I got home, I found out two things: Number One: What scared good old “Mom.’ THIS is how they extort high rates of taxes out of the American people.
With FEAR. Al Gore, would be proud
Proposition Y is a $945 million bond issue by the Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District (MSD).
If St. Louisans vote yes, sewer rates for the average single-family MSD user would rise from roughly $29 for the average single family to roughly $44 by mid-2015. The new rate effective July 1 of this year would be about $31.
By contrast, a rejection of the measure would raise that average rate to about $64 effective July 1 of this year. That figure would then rise to about $65 by mid-2015.
MSD must increase its rates to begin paying for $4.7 billion in upgrades mandated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The expenses stem from a settlement announced in August. The upgrades will help correct more than 350 sewer overflows in the St. Louis area and will be made over 23 years, according to a primer document from MSD. They will address violations of the Clean Water Act
Just one sheet…..
Nobody Wonders
When I told somebody today that Sherly Crow had been said to have a brain tumor, this person said:
“So—-that’s what happens when you only use one sheet of toilet paper.”
Hey— I thought it was funny.
(And before you go saying I’m “heartless” let me say that my father, one of my best friends, and one of my dogs, all died of cancerous brain tumors…so I know the suffering that goes with brain tumors…but I refuse to lose my sense of humor, and if I get one, then by all means consider me free to laugh at, just be sure it fits ME! )
About
I am a nobody. If the different classes of America were color-coded, I would be in the yucky brown, one rung up from the bottom. I grew up in Naples, Florida and live near the Mississippi River now with my husband and two dogs. I am part of the slowly disappearing middle-class. I was a musician most of my life: drummer/singer/keyboards—but I retired before the plastic surgery flu hit. I have no degrees, which could be a good thing…depending on how you view our educational system. I do have three patents…but that really doesn’t make me a somebody. The one thing that is constant in my life is my OPINIONS, which i have more than perhaps even Carl Sagan could have imagined…mostly political. (yes…my ancestors were crabby buggers)
Hopefully other nobody’s will put their opinions on my site. But, if you happen to be a somebody, you’re more than welcomed to help out.
It’s my Nobody Opinion that Nobody’s Perfect, and Nobody Cares, that Nobody Knows why Nobody Wins, and when that happens, Nobody Wonders, why Nobody Flashes, why Nobody’s Fooled, but then Nobody remembers that Nobody ALWAYS Reports the truth.
