Night Watchman and Steven Chu

Once upon a time the government had a vast scrap yard in the middle of a desert. Congress said, "Someone may steal from it at night." So they created a night watchman position and hired a person for the job. Then Congress said, "How does the watchman do his job without instruction?" So they created a planning department and hired two people, one person to write the instructions, and one person to do time studies.

Then Congress said, "How will we know the night watchman is doing the tasks correctly?" So they created a Quality Control department and hired two people. One was to do the studies and one was to write the reports. Then Congress said, "How are these people going to get paid?"

So they created two positions: a time keeper and a payroll officer then hired two people. Then Congress said, "Who will be accountable for all of these people?" So they created an administrative section and hired three people, an Administrative Officer, Assistant Administrative Officer, and a Legal Secretary.

Then Congress said, "We have had this command in operation for one year and we are $918,000 over budget, we must cut back." So they laid-off the night watchman.

NOW slowly, let it sink in. Quietly, we go like sheep to slaughter. Does anybody remember the reason given for the establishment of the DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY during the Carter administration?

Anybody? Anything? No? Didn't think so! Bottom line is, we've spent several hundred billion dollars in support of an agency, the reason for which not one person who reads this can remember! Ready?

It was very simple... and at the time, everybody thought it very appropriate. The Department of Energy was instituted on 8/04/1977, TO LESSEN OUR DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN OIL. Hey, pretty efficient, huh???

AND NOW IT'S 2012 -- 35 YEARS LATER -- AND THE BUDGET FOR THIS "NECESSARY" DEPARTMENT IS AT $24.2 BILLION A YEAR. IT HAS 16,000 FEDERAL EMPLOYEES AND APPROXIMATELY 100,000 CONTRACT EMPLOYEES; AND LOOK AT THE JOB IT HAS DONE!

THIS IS WHERE YOU SLAP YOUR FOREHEAD AND SAY, "WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?

34 years ago 30% of our oil consumption was foreign imports. Today 70% of our oil consumption is foreign imports. Ah, yes -- good old Federal bureaucracy.

NOW, WE HAVE TURNED OVER THE BANKING SYSTEM, HEALTH CARE, AND THE AUTO INDUSTRY TO THE SAME GOVERNMENT?

To make matters worse we have Obama’s “outrageously anti-American” energy policy which is aimed at increasing the price at the pump. His vile wannabe Czar, Steven Chu is in charge of this disaster. This dirtbag Steven Chu, the Energy secretary, has said in 2008 he wanted gasoline prices to get to the European level, which is $9 or $10 a gallon.

Hello!! Anybody Home? The Anti-American Liberals are marching through the United States like Hitler, Stalin and Mussolini.

Signed....The Night Watchman.

American Hero Andrew Breitbart Dead at 43

In Memoriam: Andrew Breitbart (1969-2012)

Andrew Breitbart has passed away and this is a huge tragedy. We, as American Conservatives have lost a special person who fought hard for America. Andrew Breitbart was a Hero. America has deteriorated when we talk about the MSM. The MSM are now just Media Supporting Marxism. Andrew would attack this Politically Correct disaster at every turn.

Andrew Breitbart was one a few key voices on our side that would speak up against the vile Left Wing. Andrew Breitbart was attacked over and over and he kept fighting for America. Andrew Breitbart found the Truth and showed it to America, even if it was ugly. Look at how he exposed the racist Shirley Sherrod and her lowlife Husband. These People have stolen millions from America as they and others posed as Black Farmers. The only thing many of this Crowd grew was racism.

I respected Andrew Breitbart for many reasons. He grew up in California and could have become the typical Liberal out there. You know the California Liberal who wants poor people taken care of, just not with their money and keep them out of the Liberals neighborhood. Andrew Breitbart heard Rush Limbaugh and had an awakening of sorts. This awakening ended up being very valuable for Conservatives in America. Andrew Breitbart went on to attack Barrack Obama's ACORN and many other left wing racist groups.

Breitbart was a prolific commentator who founded several websites devoted to covering politics, entertainment and everything in between. Earlier in his career, he worked for the Drudge Report before breaking off to start his own outlets -- including Big Government, Big Hollywood and Breitbart.tv.

The statement below is on his sites and quoted the concluding passage from his book, Righteous Indignation.

"I love my job. I love fighting for what I believe in. I love having fun while doing it. I love reporting stories that the Complex refuses to report. I love fighting back, I love finding allies, and-famously-I enjoy making enemies. Three years ago, I was mostly a behind-the-scenes guy who linked to stuff on a very popular website. I always wondered what it would be like to enter the public realm to fight for what I believe in. I've lost friends, perhaps dozens. But I've gained hundreds, thousands -- who knows? -- of allies. At the end of the day, I can look at myself in the mirror, and I sleep very well at night."

This statement from a Hero said: "Andrew is at rest, yet the Happy Warrior lives on. He lives on in each of the real Conservative Americans”.
