Now a Marxist Country? This lady is friggin' nuts!
Windfall Tax on Retirement Income
Adding a tax to your retirement is simply another way of saying to the American people, "You're so darn stupid that we're going to keep doing this until we drain every cent from you." That's just what the Speaker of the House is saying. Read below ...
Nancy Pelosi wants a Windfall Tax on Retirement Income. In other words tax what you've earned by investing toward your retirement. You aren't going to believe this.
Madam speaker Nancy Pelosi wants to put a Windfall Tax on all stock market profits (including Retirement fund, 401K and Mutual Funds! Alas , it is true - all to help the 12 Million Illegal Immigrants and other unemployed Minorities!
This woman is frightening.
She quotes...' We need to work toward the goal of equalizing income, (didn't Marx say something like this?), in our country and at the same time limiting the amount the rich can invest.' (I am not rich, are you?)
When asked how these new tax dollars would be spent, she replied:
'We need to raise the standard of living of our poor, unemployed and minorities. For example, we have an estimated 12 million illegal immigrants in our country who need our help along with millions of unemployed minorities. Stock market windfall profits taxes could go a long way to guarantee these people the standard of living they would like to have as 'Americans'.'
(Read that quote again and again and let it sink in."
In other words: "You've worked hard, invested wisely for your retirement, but oh by the way: Fuck you."
"We're gonna take your money and give it to someone who hasn't worked, hasn't planned and hasn't paid any taxe because you're stupid enough to let us."
You've been warned...

Dissolution of America
Got this in from Willie in the Wind:
Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists, Obama supporters, et al:
We have stuck together since the late 1950's, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has run its course. Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right, so let's just end it on friendly terms. We can smile, slate it up to irreconcilable differences, and go on our own ways.
Here is a model dissolution agreement:
Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement.
After that it should be relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes. We don't like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU.
Since you hate guns and war, we'll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military. You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore, and Rosie O'Donnell (you are however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move them).
We'll keep the capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart, and Wall Street. You can have your beloved homeless, homeboys, hippies, greedy CEO's and illegal aliens. We'll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms and rednecks. We'll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood.
You can make nice with Iran, Palestine, and France and we'll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us. You can have the peaceniks and war protestors. When our allies or way of life are under assault, we'll provide them job security.
We'll keep our Judeo-Christian Values. You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism, and Shirley McClain. You can have the U.N. But we will no longer be paying the bill. We'll keep the SUV's, pickup trucks, and oversized luxury cars. You can take every Subaru station wagon you can find.
You can give everyone healthcare, if you can find any practicing doctors (that is practicing, Howard Dean) who will follow to your turf (sic). We'll continue to believe healthcare is a luxury and not a right.
We'll keep The Battle Hymn of the Republic and The National Anthem. I'm sure you'll be happy to substitute Imagine, I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing, Kum Ba Ya or We Are the World.
We'll practice trickle down economics and you can give trickle up poverty its best shot.
Since it often so offends you we'll keep our History, our Name, and our Flag.
Would you agree to this? If so please pass it along to other likeminded patriots and if you do not agree just hit delete and hang on.
In the spirit of friendly parting, I'll bet you ANWAR on who will need whose help in 15 years.
Sincerely,
John J. Wall

Whites Need not Apply
Jeez - President for only two days and already lots of our readers are left out in the cold. White construction workers need not apply. Talk about racism. Plus now Rangle - a tax cheat and congressman from NYC is gonna take your money and give it away to others. The power of the State over rules everything. Jeez. They're totally skipping Socialism and going straight to Communism. How in the hell did we let it go on this long?
Watch it for yourself:

These idiots in Congress are imbeciles, crooks and power hungry corrupt politicians. And we don't believe a single one of them anymore. Guilt by association. Money and Power. And it's only gonna get worse.

And So Goes America???
We broke the bonds with Great Britain over 200 years ago. So why are our 'do-gooding' liberals trying to be like them now? From JPA.

How to Take a Traffic Ticket
We haven't posted in a while. Holidays, busy with stuff coming up for Bike Week, new issues to get on the street, etc. Sorry. We're gittin' back on it. Here's another great article from David Willis, Attorney---->
We should all ride safely and obey the traffic laws, but let’s face it, sooner or later we’re all going to get a ticket for something. Don’t let it ruin your day. Worse things can happen on a bike. Do it right, and you’re back on your way in a few minutes. It’s not as bad as a flat tire or an accident. Act wrongly, and you’ll ruin your chance of fighting the ticket, not to mention risk the situation escalating into an arrest and an opportunity to make a few new friends downtown for the night.
Bikers can get traffic tickets for everything a car driver can as well as citations specific to motorcycles. Common traffic citations for cars or bikes are: speeding; crossing a yellow line; changing lanes during an intersection; not staying in the correct lane during a left turn; failing to signal a turn or lane change; and many more. But, bikers can also get tickets for: splitting a lane; loud pipes; vertical tag; and; my favorite, wheelies. (I don’t mean I do ‘em — I just think it’s pretty funny that someone complains when they get busted for doing it.). And lately, I’m handling more and more cases of excessive speeding, like riding at 130 and 160 miles-per-hour. Man, those crotch rockets really scream.
Now, here are the DO’s and DON’Ts when you get pulled over for a ticket.
When an officer turns on the flashing lights, DO put on your blinker and move to the right lane.
DO look for a good place to pull over. If a side street or parking lot is available, use it. If you have to drive a couple of blocks for a good spot, this is usually permissible.
DO turn off your bike or car.
DON’T get off the bike or out of your car.
DO wait patiently for the officer to come to you. Never go to meet the office halfway.
DON’T ever try to shake hands with an officer.
DON’T show frustration or anger.
DON’T speak first! Let the officer speak first. Always!
DO use a few “sirs” or “ma’ams” in your responses, but don’t over do it.
The officer is going to ask for your “license, registration and proof of insurance.” DON’T start digging for it until the officer asks for it, and be sure you can produce them quickly.
DO answer the officer’s questions BUT only with brief, non-committal responses.
DON’T admit to anything! I suggest answers such as “I see” or “okay.”
DON’T say smart-alecky stuff.
Question: Do you know why I pulled you over?
** THIS IS IMPORTANT! ** Your answer is always “No, why?” or “Please tell me.”
Question: Do you know how fast you were going?
Answer: “Yes sir/ma’am.” DON’T say your speed, especially if you were speeding! Let the officer state how fast he/she thinks you were going. DON’T comment, argue, debate, etc. DON’T say anything! If you must say something, just nod you head in an ‘Okay, if you say so’ way.
Question: “Do you know what the speed limit is?”
Answer: “Please tell me.” Now use your non-committal nod again. If, and only if, you’re sure of the speed limit, your answer is “Yes,” and then be ready to state it if further questioned. But, I can defend “please tell me” just fine.
THIS IS IMPORTANT! DO sign the ticket! Signing the ticket does not mean you agree with the citation; it only acknowledges you received the ticket. Refusing to sign the ticket is a second degree misdemeanor. DON’T make any final commentary, just sign the ticket and politely leave when the officer is finished.
SIDE NOTE: DON’T run from the officers! I have several clients on fast bikes that tried to run. It usually doesn’t work, and it makes a non-criminal traffic ticket into a third degree felony. Just pull over and take the ticket, even if it means going to jail for the night for something other than the ticket. I don’t care if you’re wanted, carrying drugs, drunk, whatever, don’t run. It always makes your case worse. Hire an attorney and let them work it out. It’s always cheaper and better to pull over and take the ticket!
In closing, anytime you’re interacting with a police officer you should show respect even if you disagree with their actions. Remember their job is to issue citations. It’s the judge’s job to determine if the citation is valid or not. So don’t waste your time arguing with the officer. Most officers have already made up their minds whether you’re getting a warning or a ticket before they approach you. So, just take the ticket, and try to enjoy the rest of your ride.
Oh, almost forgot. You should remember to smile; nowadays it’s likely you’re being video-taped.
