Obama kisser Charlie Crist ‘officially’ becomes a Democrat

"Just a useless piece of garbage". MC


So now it’s official, though it was pretty apparent when Charlie Crist was governor of Florida. Obama kissing Charlie Crist is ‘officially’ a Democrat. Of course Charlie Crist seems to change political affiliations about as often as people in San Francisco change genders. Lets take a trip down memory lane when Crist was running as a Republican for Senate before he was crushed by Marco Rubio:

Tomorrow is the last day of our fund raising quarter. Please support our campaign for LESS TAXES, LESS GOVERNMENT, AND MORE FREEDOM.

Of course, before his boring DNC speech, Crist was ambulance chasing for Morgan and Morgan:

"It's not the whale that smells, it's your politics". MC

A dead whale rotting near the Malibu homes of Barbra Streisand, Bob Dylan and other celebrities is causing a gigantic cleanup problem as authorities try to decide who’s responsible for getting rid of it.

MALIBU, Calif. (AP) -- No government agency is taking action to remove the decaying carcass of a whale on a California beach, making it appear the job will be left to Mother Nature.

The corpse of the huge fin whale created a spectacle on Friday as people wandered down the narrow Malibu beach to look at the remains - white bones, rolls of blubber and the tail flukes trailing along the water's edge.

The homes of movie stars, celebrities and others line the cliffs high above the slender beach.

Looking over the whale, Malibu resident Ben Dossett suggested there was now no need to try to remove it.

Congress and White House to Put Thousands of Charities Out of Business

The Liberal Slogan

"The Dems don't have to worry about the deductions since they rarely give to charities. Just check out POS-POTUS and Bidens last years tax deductions to charities.It's another way for democrats in government to make conservatives "pay their fair share" and affects conservatives the most since democrats donate so little to charity anyway. That's their "balanced" approach".  MC

POST HI-LITE: Did you know that in a socialist nation that all charity comes from the government, not from people and organizations?  Kind of fits in with the rest of the socialistic changes Barack Obama has been making, doesn’t it?08

Most charities in the United States rely on donations as their primary source of income.  When donations are made to a non-profit charity, they become a tax deduction to the person or corporation giving the donation.  Subsequently, many people only give donations because of the tax deduction they receive.   This can be seen in the fact that many non-profit charities receive a third to half of their annual donations in the month December as people begin to think about income taxes and the need for deductions.

Now, those tax deductions are in danger of being reduced or disappearing all together and if they do, a large percentage of donations will also disappear resulting in many a charity having to close their doors and it all has to do with the infamous fiscal cliff.

One of the economic plans being put forth by Democrats calls for the reduction of allowable charitable tax deductions.  Others are proposing a cap on the amount of allowable charitable tax deductions and yet others are abdicating dropping all tax deductions for charitable donations.

Any of these plans will have a drastic impact on many non-profit charities.  Reducing the deduction amount or placing a cap on allowable deductions will hurt many charities.  Dropping all tax deductions will be devastating to non-profit charities resulting in many of them no longer being able to afford to help those in need.  Hundreds and thousands of charities will cease to exist.

But don’t think the Democrats are alone on this idea.  The plan put forth by House Speaker John Boehner last week also called for a reduction in the tax deductions for charitable giving.  In this respect, his plan was no different than what the Democrats are considering.

Did you know that in a socialist nation that all charity comes from the government, not from people and organizations?  Kind of fits in with the rest of the socialistic changes Barack Obama has been making, doesn’t it?08

If I still worked for a non-profit charity, I would be getting very nervous right now, especially with both sides of the table talking about reducing or eliminating tax deductions for charitable donations.  Will non-profit charities have to start laying off staff or cutting their outreach?  For many, their future does not appear to be very bright as we enter into the Christmas holiday season.

December 7th… National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day

God bless the brave Americans who sacrificed so much to protect our country.  And those who continue to do so today.

Today is the 71st anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.  A day when more than 3,500 Americans were killed or wounded and the U.S. naval fleet was almost completely destroyed.  It was a devastating day in our history and the event that officially drew America into WWII.
From History.com,

Just before 8 on the morning of December 7, 1941, hundreds of Japanese fighter planes attacked the American naval base at Pearl Harbor near Honolulu, Hawaii. The barrage lasted just two hours, but it was devastating: The Japanese managed to destroy nearly 20 American naval vessels, including eight enormous battleships, and almost 200 airplanes. More than 2,000 Americans soldiers and sailors died in the attack, and another 1,000 were wounded. The day after the assault, President Franklin D. Roosevelt asked Congress to declare war on Japan; Congress approved his declaration with just one dissenting vote. Three days later, Japanese allies Germany and Italy also declared war on the United States, and again Congress reciprocated. More than two years into the conflict, America had finally joined World War II.

Elizabeth McIntosh, a reporter for the Honolulu Star Bulletin, wrote an account of what she witnessed that day and the days that followed.  But, her story was deemed too graphic for publication.  Over 70 years later, McIntosh’s story has been published.  It’s extraordinary.
