How Did Your Representative/Senator Vote?

Posted by: The BoBo // Category: Congress, Elections, Politics, Socialism, government, health care

Hi All – I figured with the 2010 mid-term elections upon us and the races getting tighter – it would be a good idea to remind everyone of how your Representatives and Senators voted on the Five Major Key Issues that have helped lead this country down the road to socialism: TARP, The Stimulus Bill, Obamacare, Crap and Trade, and Financial Reform.

First – the Big One – Obamacare

Here is the Roll Call Vote on Obamacare

Next – Crap and Trade

Here is the Roll Call Vote on Cap and Trade

Next – Financial Reform

Here is the Roll Call Vote on Financial Reform Senate

Here is the Roll Call Vote on Financial Reform House

Next up – The Stimulus Bill

Here is the Roll Call Vote on ARRA Senate

Here is the Roll Call Vote on ARRA House

Finally – TARP

Here is the Roll Call Vote on TARP Senate

Here is the Roll Call Vote on TARP House

Hopefully, this is a great resource for you all as you head to the voting booths in a couple weeks (or within days for those of you doing early voting) – please – we MUST hold ALL of these politicians’ feet to the fire on these bills. We were already heading down the wrong path before Obamadeenajad – these bills solidified it. Please pass this post on to others so that they too can see how their Representatives and Senators voted on these economically devastating bills.

And – I need to plug one particular politician – Sean Bielat. He is opposing Barney Franks up in Mass. He is closing in on Barney and has Barney running scared – so much so that Barney Franks had to donate $200,000 of his own money to his own campaign. Sean needs some help – please donate here and let’s all help him to retire Barney. He’s been there 30 years already. He’s done enough damage to this country. I did my part and donated – now it’s your turn to help RETIRE BARNEY.

The BoBo Carnival of Politics October 17 2010 Edition

Posted by: The BoBo // Category: Carnival, Conservative, Democrats, Liberals, Politics, blogs, government, libertarian

Yes – I know – It is a day late. Sorry – decided to take a quick weekend vacation over at the land of the mouse again. When you only live 70 miles away from the largest playground in the country – it’s really hard to resist – especially these days given our political climate and the dickheads we have running this country. November 2 can’t get here fast enough!

Please enjoy the following submissions and be sure to visit their blogs. Check out Mad Kane’s limerick – she’s obviously listening to or reading some really leftist propaganda shit – haven’t heard that one at all.

Wenchypoo provides some great wisdom as usual – However, just a warning – while she finds indications that China is crumbling – just remember – they also have pretty much cornered the gold market right now. They may me moving closer to Capitalism and further away from Communism – but – in my eye – that is a good thing. The bad thing is they are still our enemy.

Also – be sure to check out Dividist’s (or as I know him, DWSUWF) perspective on the Angle/Reid debate last week. I bet there will be more “None of the Above” votes than anything in Nevada. That will probably be a bad thing for Reid.

Silicon Valley Blogger presents Should There Be An Unemployment Benefits Extension? posted at The Digerati Life, saying, “Thanks!”

NP! Me, personally, being the conservative that I am – I would have to say no. In fact, I truly believe we need to do away with unemployment benefits altogether. There is nothing in our Constitution that allows the government to take money from employers in order to distribute it to people they have fired or laid off. It is a form of charity and wealth redistribution that our founding fathers warned against. This just makes more slaves to the government and kills human ingenuity as it breeds dependence.

The BoBo Carnival of Politics – October 10, 2010 Edition

Posted by: The BoBo // Category: Carnival, Conservative, Democrats, Liberals, Politics, blogs, libertarian

Well, unfortunately, my Steelers had a by-week this week. At least the home town team – Buccaneers – pulled one out in the last seconds of the game to beat the Bengals. They’re in the same division as my Steelers so that helped out a lot. Enough of that – now on to the Carnival – please do take some time and check out the blogs of the contributors. Without them, this carnival would not have any success at all. I had a lot more submissions this week – but – had to delete them out as they weren’t related to politics – apparently – there are some out there who don’t actually read the rules for submission and hope they will just pass through. Rest assured – while I may not have time to comment on all of these submissions – I do take the time to eliminate the one’s that aren’t related so that you guys don’t have to waste your time on them.

Enjoy

At first, I was going to delete this as I didn’t see any connection to politics at all – then – I stopped and thought about it for a minute – check out the questions here – the next time you see a political ad – think of these questions and see if these candidates/politicians are worth your time.

Another BoBo PSA – All About MS

Posted by: The BoBo // Category: Uncategorized

Multiple Sclerosis – do you know anybody that has it? Do you even know what it is? Do you even know how people get MS? I bring this up because a woman I know recently was diagnosed with MS. Funny thing is, (well, not so funny) – I thought MS was something you were born with. Apparently, she developed MS shortly after having her first child. It looks like this will also be her last child as a result. Apparently, MS is hereditary and isn’t usually diagnosed until early adulthood – which explains why she was diagnosed at her age.

MS is one of those demyelinating (muscle loss) diseases that affects the brain and spinal cord – essentially – it attacks the central nervous system. In wanting to learn more about MS as a result of what my co-worker is going through – I came across a website that provides a lot of good information. The name is allaboutms.com. There is a page about MS treatment as well as what the appropriate Multiple Sclerosis Diet should be. While there is still no cure yet, there are treatments to alleviate the symptoms and a certain diet can also help with some of those symptoms as well.

Now that I have found this website – I will be sure to pass this on to my co-worker. If you know someone who has MS – please pass this on to them. There is a lot of great information on this website.

Now back to our regularly scheduled program.

A new way to shop!

Posted by: The BoBo // Category: making money

Check this out – what if you had a way to search for specific items you wanted to buy all in one location – kinda like google? Well, now there is such a place – it’s called ShopWiki. Just like google, you put in your search string for what you are looking for and it crawls the web for ya finding the best matches. What if you were looking for some indoor light fixtures? You just head on over to ShopWiki.com – put in your search string “indoor light fixtures” and it brings you to this page with a vast selection of indoor light fixtures and other buying guides.

We recently bought some new couches so now we’re in the market for different home furnishings and decor that match the new couches. I went over to ShopWiki.com and plugged in the following keywords “home furnishings and decor.” I was amazed to see the various selections to choose from in the home furnishing category. It comes up with selections for the bedroom, other living room furniture, rugs, bookcases, and more. I’m definitely going to pass this on to the wife – it might get her off e-bay!

We have an old standing lamp in our living room that no longer goes with our couches – so – in addition to the above search string I also tried “lamps” and “desk lamps.” Under the “lamps” search string I found some other great floor lamps in addition to other various types of table lamps, hanging lamps, and ceiling fans. We have a cathedral ceiling with a ceiling fan – hadn’t considered getting one with a light in it until I saw the selections there. Under the “desk lamps” search string I found an assortment of different types of actual desk lamps and replacement bulbs for those desk lamps. This was obviously not the search string I wanted. I was looking for something for my end tables. I guess the table lamps I found in the first search pretty much nailed that for me. There are some nice desk lamps there – if I’m ever in the market for desk lamps I definitely know where I’m going.

Anyway – go check it out. Tell them BoBo sent ya!
