Mere coincidence: campaign contributions lead to government loans?

Posted by: Phineas on March 3, 2013 at 1:01 pm » 3 Comments

Say it ain’t so! “Cause for Action,” which bills itself as a “government accountability” group, took a look at “green energy” loans made by the Department of Energy (1) and found a (not so) surprising correlation between energy companies that made campaign donations and those that were awarded loans (2). Cronyism in the halls of Chicago-on-the-Potomac? You make [...]

 

Oh, gee. Look at that. Pro-Obama voter fraud in… Ohio

Posted by: Phineas on February 8, 2013 at 2:59 pm » 10 Comments

**Posted by Phineas No, I’m not one of those who believe Obama stole the 2012 election. He won that fair and square through superb organization. (And a pathetic GOTV effort by the Romney campaign.) But there are persistent reports of voter fraud: people voting twice, “dead people” voting, non-citizens voting, et cetera. Mention these concerns, [...]

 

The purpose of the Obama tax increases is to reward Obama’s cronies

Posted by: Phineas on January 4, 2013 at 6:13 pm » 8 Comments

Forget Denmark, something’s rotten in St. Lucie county, Florida

**Posted by Phineas I mean, with such a well-managed election operation as this, I can’t see why anyone thinks there’s a problem: Then there is Gertrude Walker, the 32-year-veteran election supervisor of St. Lucie County, who has spent much of the last two weeks explaining why her office completely botched the count. She admitted that [...]

 

Your “something’s fishy” moment of the day

**Posted by Phineas From Florida, where Rep. Allen West is waging a battle to get a recount in St. Lucie county: Just as background, one precinct has 7 voters registered and yet recorded about 900 votes. That’s a 13,000 percent turnout. Call me crazy, but I think Congressman West has reason to be suspicious. Information on how [...]

**Posted by Phineas The Democrat Jackass Party is trying to steal the vote in Philadelphia, which they have to hold to keep Romney from winning the state. Told ya they were panicked. The PA GOP is fighting back. This is why we need every (real) voter to show up: we have to get past the [...]

**Posted by Phineas One of the occasional frustrations I experience happens when I discuss economics and the economy with liberal friends (1). When I praise capitalism and free markets, they point to corrupt practices by business and its government allies as proof that capitalism can’t work, and that we need more government regulation to make [...]

**Posted by Phineas Following up on this story, I guess O’Keefe’s videos exposing corrupt behavior in ACORN and Planned Parenthood offices have made the DNC/Obama campaign (1) a little… sensitive to pain: The Democratic National Committee has terminated the employment of Houston, Texas, Organizing For America Regional Field Director Stephanie Caballero after she was caught [...]

**Posted by Phineas Oh, my. James O’Keefe of ACORN and Planned Parenthood fame strikes again: James O’Keefe has done it again — this time capturing video of a paid Obama Organizing for America director in Houston, Texas, assisting a double-voting scheme directed toward Florida.
