Politics. My take on the inauguration.

A National Guard unit waiting to support the inauguration.  Parades suck for those behind the scene...same with all the other horse and pony shows ... Flag Officers love this stuff but for everyone else, its just a severe pain in the ass.


I watched the inauguration on MSNBC.

The President highlighted climate change as one of his big "needs to get done" (I am so tired of that phrase) for the second term.

What he really means is that he's looking for a carbon tax to hit you with.

Obama care is already in trouble and that's how he's going to make up for the lack of taxes (no, not revenue, lets call it what it is...taxes) that are coming into the government because of the bad economy.

Which brings me to my last takeaway.

He said basically nothing about the economy.  They have no plan which means that we all need to do everything we can to ensure our own economic security...and that means above and beyond what you would normally be expected to do.

Make a plan.  Make it happen.  2013 is gonna suck donkey balls folks.  Hang on for a real bumpy ride.

PS.  Be on the lookout for a value added tax after the gun fight is over...

  1. You must like torture to watch that stuff.

    He must be high if he thinks he's going to pass carbon taxes with the Senate alone, when he couldn't do it in his first term with majorities.

    Nevertheless, the Republican Party needs to change in a dramatic way or this is the future.

    1. yeah i saw that trash. what he's trying to do in my opinion is establish a global standard so that there are no places on the planet that gets an advantage for not having a carbon tax. Australia fell for that nonsense and saw there once profitable coal industry die. we don't have to talk about the UK or Europe. they've been suffering under a carbon tax and a value added tax. i couldn't imagine.
