			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Pundits query Obama’s slighting of the Supreme Court last week saying they can‘t understand why Obama, a constitutional scholar , would make such an erroneous statement. The “why?” is clear to me.</p>
<p>Obama is inciting those like Mr. Jackson and Mr. Sharpton to take to the streets in protest in the event the Supreme Court rules the mandate in Obamacare to be unconstitutional.</p>
<p>“Top down, bottom up.” A scenario that beckons consideration.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Black folks here coined the word “Pass’n,” when referring to other Blacks who associate or socialize with whites. The inference, of course, is that these blacks are trying to pass as white people. In other words they’re, “WANT-A-B’s”</p>
<p>The major distinction, however, between those who are, “Pass’n,“ and those who are, “WANT-A-B’s” is that, “Pass’n,” normally connotes race, where, “WANT-A-B” covers a wide variety of inner and outer personality conflicts.</p>
<p>On February 26, 2012, in Sanford Florida, a neighborhood watch captain, George Zimmerman, shot and killed Trayvon Martin.</p>
<p>One could surmise Mr. Zimmerman to be a “WANT-A-B” mixture of Magnum P.I., Kojak and Sergeant Friday, with a self indulged mind set to rid the world of crime and preserve the American way of life.</p>
<p>On the other hand, one could surmise Mr. Martin to be a “WANT-A-B” hooded gang member, his garb to strike fear in the heart of men.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, the two, polar opposite, “WANT-A-B” personalities collided that warm night in Sanford Florida resulting in the tragic death of Trayvon Martin.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Conservative African Americans put forth the notion that Democrats want to infuse black folks with an entitlement mentality, thus keeping their vote chained to the Democrat dependency plantation.</p>
<p>To illustrate in historical terms, during the 1800s and early 1900s, flat bottom, stern/side wheel paddleboats cruised the rivers in North America, wherein, when they came to ports, well-off, liberally minded passengers would lean on the side rails and toss coins at black folks on the docks below. Dependent on these coins, black folks would sing and tap dance while gathering the spellbinding coins in their newly removed half cocked caps.</p>
<p>That was then.</p>
<p>As attested by the fact that, today, ninety percent of black folks are declared Democrats, one can only assume that the Democrat’s spellbinding coins still hold them captive, singing and tap dancing in their aforementioned half cocked caps.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>An example of diminishing returns is wiring an electric motor to a generator with the idea that the electric motor will run the generator which in turn will run the electric motor. It simple won’t work</p>
<p>An even better example of diminishing returns is employment by government of workers in the public sector. The government pays public sector workers X+1 dollars, then the government collects only X amount of dollars in taxes from these same public sector workers which it uses again to pay these workers X+1 dollars. This only works if you think like a liberal.</p>
<p>The bigger the government, the more pronounced diminishing returns.</p>

<p>Anything Congress can&#8217;t afford gets prioritized, even security. I don&#8217;t buy a rifle for home defense if I can&#8217;t make mortgage. Congress will have to cut ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING, just like every American family does each week.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Imagine this.</p>
<p>You give your 8-year-old son a $10 weekly allowance.</p>
<p>He spends it, and wants $10 more to buy more stuff.</p>
<p>You say, &#8220;Okay Johnny, I&#8217;ll give you a $20 allowance only if you promise to cut $10 in spending.&#8221; Which is the same damn thing as telling Johnny he&#8217;s reached his debt limit at $10 and must cut spending.</p>
<p>Republicans are the stupid party for a reason folks.</p>
<p>Refusing to raise the debt ceiling is a balanced budget deal by default. Why waste legislation on something guaranteed already?</p>
