AFTERTHOUGHT!

CANDIDATE DEBATES

The thing that frustrates me the most is that these insipid reporters just won't ask the important questions. I think that the problem here is that these reporters all know that one or the other of these people may well end up in the White House, and when that time rolls around they want to be sure they have access. They want to make sure that they can still get to the now-president ...for if they can't they may well lose their jobs. So, the rule of the day is to treat somewhat lightly.

Net result: insipid questions.

Now you may ask: "Hey Boortz. Since you're such a blowhard know-it-all talk show host, just what questions would YOU ask if you were on that panel? Fair enough ... so here are some ideas:

  1. What is the maximum amount of a person's income anyone should ever have to pay to the federal government in income taxes?
  2. What percentage of total individual income is earned by the top one percent of income earners?
  3. Do you think the top one percent of income earners are paying their fair share of income taxes?
  4. What percentage of total income taxes collected by the federal government is paid by the top one percent of income earners? [Listen to how much fun we had asking Dennis Kuchinich these last 3 questions.]
  5. What does the 10th Amendment to the Constitution say?
  6. Do you think the 10th Amendment is obsolete?
  7. Identify one government program where you believe government spending could be decreased.
  8. Identify one government program you believe could be eliminated.
  9. Should control of the education be returned to the local level?

OK .. these are just a few questions .. but they are sure as hell more meaningful to men than hammering Hillary about her Bosnia story or trying to get Obama to engage in a spirited defense of Jeremiah Wright.

Another way to spice up the debates after the conventions? Put the Libertarian candidate up there on the stage. To do that, though, the Libertarian candidate is going to have to poll at 15% or above. So ... when the pollster calls you know what to do.

SOME READING ASSIGNMENTS

Students who achieve a 4.0 at this government high school will no longer be able to wear distinctive robes at graduation because "every child is special." And you had over your children to government every day to be educated?

A father and son in Great Britain were turned away from a community swimming pool because they were not Muslim. Inch by inch, folks.

The real question in this story should be ... how in the hell did that canister get up there to begin with?

NOT TO EARLY FOR A PREDICTION ...

At this stage of the game, who do you think is going to win the presidential election come November?
John McCain
Boortz is crazy...the Democrat will win
Man, I wish that annoying Brooke chick had been voted off of Idol...my texts must not be getting through!
And the prediction is (ta da!) John McCain.

After watching the antics of the Obamamaniacs the last few weeks, I think It's not too early to predict that John McCain is going to win the election in November. Here's why:

First: Hillary. People just flat-out don't like her. That would be because she is so flat-out unlikable. People have a hard time warming up to unlikable people. Trust me on this.

Second: The Libertarian candidate. Don't know who her or she is going to be, and if they are willing to fight the crucially important war against Islamic fascism I might well vote for them. But they won't win.

So .. that leaves Barack Obama.

The real beginning of the end for Obama was his preacher of 20-years Jeremiah (God DAMN America) Wright. Few people are buying Obama's weak excuses that he didn't really know what that man was preaching. Twenty years --- and he didn't know. First of all, people don't particularly like fools who run around saying God Damn America. Th3e Pope was at the White House yesterday. He said "God BLESS America." People like that.

Secondly, people don't particularly trust someone who can have this happening right under his nose for 20 years and not know about it. How in the hell is Barack Obama going to keep up with the nuances of world politics if he doesn't even know what's happening in his own America-hating church.

But .. here's the clincher. Race pimps are starting to scream "racism" every single time someone not black says anything negative about Barack Obama. After Barrack's absurd San Francisco statement about rural people turning to guns and God out of bitterness, some started suggesting that Obama may be just a bit of an elitist. No sooner were those words out of some white mouth than someone else was saying that the word "elitist" is really a code word for "uppity Negro." Give me a break. And then when John McCain had the audacity to make a speech in Meridian, Mississippi; some Obama supporter was blogging on the Internet that McCain's speech was a "dog whistle" for white racists. That would be because Meridian is only 40 miles from Philadelphia – the site of the murders of three civil rights workers in the 60s. By "dog whistle" for white racists, this Obama supporter meant that only whites would be able to discern the racism inherent in McCain's decision to speak so closely to Philadelphia, Mississippi.

It is apparent now that a white person is not going to be permitted to criticize Barack Obama in any way – on any issue – without various race pimps and warlords screaming "racist." People are going to get sick and tired of this real quick. Voters are going to start thinking about what it would be like if Obama were actually in the White House. Would any criticism of an Obama initiative be branded as racist? Think about it --- if merely making a speech in Meridian, MS is racist --- if calling someone an elitist is racists --- I think you can answer that one yourself.

Obama's biggest enemies in this election process will be his own supporters – eager to find and expose racial bias in every utterance. It's already tiring. Quickly it will become unbearable.

"REALISTIC" EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS

President Bush did his little speech on climate change yesterday. He wasn't very specific about any policies. What he did make clear is that he wants to stop the growth of greenhouse gases by 2025. How is he planning to do that? By using the force of government to stifle growth.

Good news though ... John Dingell has decided that a carbon tax is no longer a good idea. This is the bill that would have raised taxes on carbon dioxide emissions and on gasoline, and lowered the tax deduction for large homes because the evil rich who live in those homes produce more greenhouse gases. Despite voter popularity (who are these people that actually thought this was a good idea?) Dingell has declared the bill dead.

The wealth envy crowd must be crying in their beers this morning.

In the meantime ... a group of scientists has demanded of the United Nations global warming panel that they provide some observable proof that carbon dioxide actually contributes to global warming. Now that sounds a bit odd, doesn't it? You probably thought that this had already been proven? Well, actually it hasn't. All the alarmists have is computer models – and these computer models are no better than the data you plug into them. There is no observable evidence that carbon dioxide emissions lead to global warming ... that would be why these scientists are being ignore.

OIL AD CAMPAIGNS

Hillary and Obama are having a mini slug-fest in the form of oil company commercials. Remember the Obama campaign ad that claimed he didn't take any money from oil companies? Well Hillary decided that she should fire back with an ad pointing out that taking money from oil companies is, in fact, illegal. She then points out that Obama accepted $200,000 from oil company executives and employees.

Good for Hillary.

The irony of it all is that Hillary herself also accepted $300,000 from oil company executives ... but I guess that's the part of the story that SHE forgot to tell. But Hillary did happen to mention that, "She'll make oil companies pay to create the new jobs and clean energy America needs."

Now I know that Hillary is toast, but I still feel the need to point out that Hillary truly believes that it is the role of government to force private companies to create new jobs. Those jobs do not belong to the government. And nobody is entitled to any jobs. Those jobs belong to the companies and they will create new jobs when they have additional work to be done. If Hillary wants to do something to create new jobs she can lower or eliminate the onerous tax burden on businesses in this country. Let them keep their money so that they can invest in new products and expand their reach. Business expansion means new jobs. Higher taxes stifle business expansion. Even Hillary should be able to understand this one.

ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT DUI

Sara Cole is a mother of four, living out in California. Not too long ago, Sara was unloading a bicycle from her car near the Los Gatos Little League field when along came Lucio Rodriguez. Lucio Rodriguez was driving with a blood alcohol level of .16. He also happens to be an illegal immigrant. I know ... you're shocked.

Now I don't have to tell you the rest of the story ...Rodriguez has pleaded guilty to felony drunken driving, causing great bodily injury, felony hit and run and driving with a suspended license. Sara Cole, the victim of the hit and run, is lucky if she is sitting in a wheelchair – her legs were crushed in the accident.

So Lucio Rodriguez is sent to jail for five years. But guess what? It turns out that this was not his first DUI. This was his second DUI in less than two years. So now we have an illegal immigrant, driving without a valid license (obviously), who is drunk, gets into an accident, flees from the scene, and then we find out that this isn't the first time. My question is, what in the hell is this guy still doing in the United States? And why wasn't his butt immediately kicked across back the border?

So here's the real kicker. First of all, if you read the article you will find that the author is completely sympathetic to the illegal immigrant ... but that is beside the point. The point is that even when the police arrest an illegal immigrant for DUI, they don't report the person to ICE. So a bill was created called "Sara's Law." That law would require police to report illegal immigrants to immigration if they are convicted of a DUI. If you are an illegal and think you can drink and drive in this country, you will be deported.

Well it should make you feel all warm and fuzzy to know that the state assembly public safety committee has voted against "Sara's Law". This is, after all, California .. or, as it is becoming known, Mexifornia.

ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?

Are you ready for this breaking news? Everybody ... sit down! Barack Obama has started wearing an American flag lapel pin. Before we know it, he'll be singing the national anthem with his hand over his heart! I'm sure glad to see that his patriotism has returned. Next stop .. he'll be bowling in the 200s.

THE RIGHT NOT TO WASH

Apparently now in Canada it is your human right not to wash your hands when working at McDonalds. Beena Datt of British Columbia claims she developed a "skin condition" that made it impossible to comply with McDonald's hygiene policy. She wouldn't wash her hands. So like any sane non-government employer ... Datt was fired. That was when she took her case to the British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal ... and won.

The tribunal ordered that McDonald's pay Datt for the $23,000 in "lost income." McDonalds also has to pay an additional $25,000 for Datt's "dignity and self-respect." Dignity and self-respect? Look at her! Her hands are dirty! At least now we know that dignity and self respect is worth $25,000 in Canada. So in British Columbia, the self-respect of the worker who slaps the meat on the bun trumps a company's commitment to cleanliness.

So not only has McDonalds had to pay this woman $50,000, on top of legal fees and experts, but this tribunal in British Columbia has now invented a new "human right" – the right for workers to drop off the kids at the pool and then handle meat without washing their hands. On top of it all, the tribunal ordered McDonald's to "cease the discriminatory conduct or any similar conduct and refrain from committing the same or similar contravention." In other words, even though Beena Datt is out of the picture, future employees can come along with the same excuse and McDonald's (or any other private restaurant) can't do a damn thing about it.

READING ASSIGNMENTS

John Murtha really had a lot to contribute to the current political scene ... he's determined that John McCain is too old to be president. Murtha is too old to make sense.

Here we go again. Obama's bitter remark is being criticized because of his race and the media's yearning to classify Obama as "uppity." Told you so.

You think Obama is elitist? Maybe all politicians and high ranking bureaucrats are elitist.

The CIA has now become involved in this Boeing tanker contract.

Iran has sentenced a handful of university students to prison for "desecrating the sanctity of Islam." How about sentencing some Islamic fascists?

Marsha Blackburn is a Representative from Tennessee who prefers to be called "Congressman." Naturally, the women's organizations think she's a heathen.

For those of you who have actually heard the tragic story of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom ... here is an update.

The manager of a real estate agency has written a letter to the General Manager of Global Warming in Europe to complain that global warming is not working and it is harder to sell property in the cold. Global warming has hired a manager?

A man in Maryland owes the government $5,000 in unpaid tolls and another $30,000 in fines and penalties.

American surgeons performed a ground breaking procedure: Removing a man's appendix by operating through his mouth. That's nothing. In 2004 surgeons removed John Kerry's blivit through his mouth.

A man in Great Britain claimed he was the victim of disability discrimination because he is bald. He says baldness affected his ability to do his job ... teaching at a government school.

Rapper Akon is so gangsta' that he had to make up parts of his convict background to appear more hardcore in the industry. Isn't that just dandy? We have a culture out there that has to make up a criminal record to be accepted.

When trying to drum up funding for your child's school ... having mothers pose for a nude calendar to raise a few bucks might not be the best idea. Especially if nobody wants to buy the calendars. Must be some ugly mothers.

Hey, look, "boortz" is in the urban dictionary! Unfortunately, the definition isn't too complimentary...

Wow, Bruce Springsteen should kick Microsoft's ass for this.

And here's a gruesome glimpse into the diet of a Golden Eagle. Yikes, that thing could carry off a baby!

Jeez, American kids are lucky if they get the crusts cut off their PB&J. Yeah, it's in Japanese but you'll find a handy "next" link at the bottom of each page. There are many, many of these.

In case you missed it...Dennis Kuchinich answers how much in taxes he thought the top 1% of income earners paid in taxes. Hilarious!
