Maybe the US Government Could Learn Something from Prostitutes with Credit Crisis … Oldest Profession is not Suffering

Hey Congress, White House and Feds it looks like you guys and gals could learn a thing or two from the oldest profession. They seem to be doing something right. As the Dow Jones plummets followed by the world markets, the business of prostitution is still strong. After all many have said there really is not much of a difference between the two professions these days. Of course these days prostitutes have a higher approval rating than Congress and pretty much do the will of the people, or at least their “Johns”. I bet prostitutes would never extend 100 to 1 debt to asset ratio loans to their customer.

Isn’t this special, according to The Daily News even though the stock market has tanked and investors have lost their collective shirts … the world’s oldest profession keeps chugging along as business is still brisk. Some people have cut back on their services; however, it appears that many need the get away from their 9–5 jobs. I guess it pays to be in a cash business.

The long-haired, long-legged hooker then explained why the red-light district remains a blue-chip commodity: “If men are horny, they’re going to come in here.”

Take that, Ben Bernanke.

US Gas Price Marks Biggest Drop Ever … However, Still Not Low Enough

With fears of a global recession and a declining demand, the price of crude oil was down to $77.70 a barrel on Friday. US travelers have also been conserving, car pooling and traveling less since gas priced previously sky-rocketed to over $4.10 a gallon. Even though gas prices have come down, with prices at $78 a barrel … the cost at the pump should be under $3.00 a gallon. Oil companies still have a ways to go with the price so not to gouge “We the People”.

(Reuters) - The average price of a gallon of gasoline in the United States recorded its largest drop ever as consumer demand continued to wane and oil prices slid, a prominent industry analyst said on Sunday.

Sarah Palin Booed at Philadelphia Flyers Hockey Opener … Don’t Worry Sarah, They Booed Santa Claus Too & Injured Football Players

The City of Brotherly Love huh?

The City of Philly has still never learned any lessons from that fateful October day in 1999 when a city lost its collective soul.

The City of Philadelphia shows once again what it is made of. Last night at the Flyers home opener, Sarah Palin, Willow and her 6 year old daughter Piper were resoundingly booed by the Philadelphia Flyer faithful. So much for class and respect. However, what exactly did anyone expect? It’s Philly, as Hot Air states … at least she made it out alive. Any one knows who has attended a sporting event in Philly and rooted for the away team knows they are taking their life in their hands.

Honestly, what would have anyone expected from Philly fans who in the past booed Santa Claus and threw snow balls at him?  However, nothing was worse in the history of sports fans than the disgusting behavior shown by Philly fans when  Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Irving suffered a neck injury in old Veterans Stadium. The Philly fans actually cheered as Michael Irving lay motionless on Veterans Field.

“I couldn’t believe they cheered when Michael Irvin got hurt,” said Donovan McNabb, the team’s No. 1 pick who was nearly booed off the stage by Eagles fans attending the draft. “You don’t know what to expect from them.”

Many fans in the crowd of 66,669 cheered when they realized Irvin was hurt, and again when paramedics wheeled a stretcher onto the field. Many also cheered respectfully when he was placed in an ambulance, but the damage was done.

“Some people need to grow up and find some inner peace, because there is no peace in watching somebody suffer,” said Irvin’s teammate, Emmitt Smith.

“This, in terms of bad taste, was as bad as it gets,” said Mayor Edward Rendell, an avid sports fan.

We are reminded by The Gateway Pundit that all week we have heard liberals and the MSM talk about how mean Republican campaign stops have been.

The New York Times wishes to make excuses for the rude or boorish behavior of Philly by stating that the appearance was not appropriate. Funny, politicians go to sporting events all the time and the fans whether they support the candidate or not at least act with some class. I do not remember the NASCAR crowd acting with such ill-mannered behavior. If NASCAR fans had ever booed Obama and his children the MSM would have called them racists and a modern day lynching.

While Philadelphia fans are known for not being shy about voicing disapproval, the question has been raised — including by me in an earlier version of this post — whether the appearance was appropriate at a sports event like this.

I do have to take exception and question the McCain/Palin campaign as to what the hell they were thinking in having Sarah Palin with her two daughters go into Navy Blue Democratic territory like Philly where their fans have always been nothing short of rudely insane. Did they think Sarah was gong to be cheered?

MSNBC: PALIN DROPS PUCK TO BOOS, CHEERS

NYT Pulls Misleading Account of Palin Puck Dropping Ceremony

The boos may have been exagerated; however, there were still boos.

In her original post Zinser exaggerated the boos by the crowd, attacked Flyers owner Ed Snider for inviting Palin to the event and appears to have fabricated the discomfort felt by NHL players Scott Gomez and Mike Richards.

That account has since been changed. Somewhere along the line Zinser gutted the original article and replaced  it with a new one that came a bit closer to reality.

Caylee Anthony Missing: Casey Anthony Wins Legal Battle But on the Verge of Losing Indictment War … George Anthony to Testify Against Casey

The judges decisions yesterday was no big deal … its called discovery. An indictment is imminent … this is just a legal defense dog and pony show.

JOEY JACKSON, DEFENSE ATTORNEY: No, I understand that. But Midwin is absolutely right on point here. The reality is, Jane, is that an indictment is imminent. And what you have to do is you have to really, if you`re the judge, determine whether or not it makes sense to turn this information over now. The defense is entitled to examine the evidence, evaluate the evidence, and having done so, to put up the best defense they possibly can.

Casey Anthony’s attorney may have won a couple of legal battles yesterday; however, come Tuesday of next week when the grand jury convenes, she will lose the Caylee homicide indictment war. Play all the legal games you want this week because next week you will pay the piper.

The walls are closing in on Casey Anthony

The judge considered 11 motions, tabled 3 of them and granted 8 of them including access to forensic evidence. However, is this really any big deal? The defense would have had access to this after Tuesday when the grand jury indicts Casey Anthony on homicide charges which they most certainly will. The prosecutors office has to share the evidence with the defense … that happens in every case. The Nancy Grace Show is making too much of this. Next week begins Justice for Caylee …

From the Nancy Grace Show; October 10, 2008 Transcripts.

LEONARD PADILLA, BOUNTY HUNTER: Well, let me see if I can put this in perspective. What the eight victories that she got are called Pyrrhic victories, OK? What she did was get a 10-day limit, which — when the grand jury comes in with the indictment, and I`m sure they will on Tuesday or Wednesday, it`s still within the 10 days that they had to release that information under discovery rules, anyhow.

As far as the safety issue, I can tell you this. I raised that the day after the results from Tennessee came in and the DNA from the FBI lab came in. I raised that as a strong issue with Jose Baez. And I says, We have a safety issue with your client. We have to do something.

NANCY GRACE SHOW

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: A judge has granted several motions requested by Casey Anthony`s attorney. Her defense was granted access to forensic tests, DNA samples and hair strands within 10 days. But a special request to let Anthony travel in secrecy to search for her missing daughter has been tabled until at least Monday. In another major development in this case, her father, George, will testify against her during a grand jury hearing next week.

Sarah Palin Knows How to deal with Moonbat Heckler … Bless Your Heart … “My Son is Fighting for Your Rights”

Sarah Palin handles a heckler with all the grace of a pit bull wearing lipstick. Check mate moonbat.

Think Sarah Palin cannot handle herself on the campaign trail? Think again as she puts a protesting heckler in his place. For those who wish to express their freedom of speech rights, Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin reminds all who exactly should be thanked for our unalienable rights. Americans best never forget who it is who makes America free as … Freedom is never Free.

Funny, the national MSM did not seem to want to cover Sarah Palin skillfully handling a heckler with grace. I wonder why?

Mr Obama has said that US troops in Afghanistan are “just air-raiding villages and killing civilians”.

Nation of Islam Leader Louis Farrakhan Calls Barack Obama “The Messiah” … Separation of Church & State?

What are we to think of this besides head shaking bewilderment and fear? Everyone thinks is a quirky joke when references are made of Barack Obama being the “Chosen One” or the “Obamamessiah.” Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan leaves no doubt when he says, when Obama talks “the Messiah is absolutely speaking.” Once again it’s about the company that one keeps and those that would want to bestow power upon Obama. The question in voters minds should be why? Why do so many people who espose hate toward America want Obama to become President of the United States?

Imagine, just imagine what the MSM would do if some reverend, pastor or priest made such a reference about either John McCain or Sarah Palin. The Left & the MSM would be criticizing either candidate for their right-wing, conservative Christian values. GWB was chided for his religious beliefs during his Presidential election, now we have a liberal, far left candidate that is being referred to as “the Messiah”. That in itself if sacrilege enough. What ever happened to separation of Church and State? How can Obama be the Messiah and President? Where is the uproar from the LEFT?

One thing we will say regarding this matter and as the Bible teaches us, beware of false prophets:

Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

 “You are the instruments that God is going to use to bring about universal change, and that is why Barack has captured the youth. And he has involved young people in a political process that they didn’t care anything about. That’s a sign. When the Messiah speaks, the youth will hear, and the Messiah is absolutely speaking.”

This was originally reported back in February 2008, without the video.

I wonder why the MSM is not commenting on these words of praise from Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan? As The Gateway Pundit states, “I was not aware that Islam had a Messiah?”

“Brothers and sisters,” Farrakhan said, “Barack Obama to me, is a herald of the Messiah. Barack Obama is like the trumpet that alerts you something new, something better is on the way.”

Farrakhan points out that the man Nation of Islam followers refer to as “the Savior,” Fard Muhammad, had a black father and a white mother, just as Obama did.

“A black man with a white mother became a savior to us,” he said. “A black man with a white mother could turn out to be one who can lift America from her fall.

Caylee Anthony still Missing … Casey Anthony Preparing for the Worst

As an anticipated and pending grand jury date awaits next week in the case of Casey Anthony and her missing daughter Caylee, the mom (Casey) is preparing for the worst. Wouldn’t the worst in a parents life be losing a beautiful baby like Caylee, not being indicted!

The lawyer for the mother of a missing Florida girl won’t say whether he expects her to be indicted on homicide charges.

But attorney Jose Baez tells the “Today” show Thursday that he and 22-year-old Casey Anthony have been preparing for the worst.

Three-year-old Caylee Anthony was reported missing in July, but her mother tells police she hasn’t seen the girl since June.

Obama’s Now Story on Unrepentant Terrorist Bill Ayers: ‘I assumed that he had been rehabilitated’

TRUTH, LIES AND VIDEO TAPE …

Obama now has yet another story to explain away his association with domestic terrorist former Weather Underground leader Bill Ayers. If Obama did not find the notion of his relationship with Ayers so troubling to his political campaign, why does “The Chosen One” keep changing his story?  Can America afford to elect a President who either assumes or lies?

Barack Obama, how could you have misread the signs that Ayers was rehabilitated? That appears to be an American flag he is standing on in a Chicago Magazine 2001 article titled “No Regrets.”

The MSM claims the two do not know each other. In the past Obama has stated that Bill Ayers was just a person he served on a board, then he was some one who just lived in his neighborhood and then it was ok, he was someone who hosted an event for Obama when the Democratic presidential nominee first launched his political career in Chicago in 2001. Now there is yet another version, “I assumed that he had been rehabilitated.” As Town Hall states, Rehabilitated?  Is the MSM so in the bag that they won’t notice this tissue-paper thin dodge?

Barack Obama now says about his relationship with unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers, “I assumed that he had been rehabilitated.”ASSUMED? Obama you know what happens when one assumes … You make an ASS out of U and ME! America, the time line of events does not lie; however, it would appear that Obama is when he discusses his relationship with Ayers.

In an interview with the sympathetic conservative talk radio host this afternoon, Obama offered the clearest explanation yet of how an extremely careful politician allowed himself anywhere near a former ’60s radical who would become a Republican target in this year’s presidential campaign.

Obama “had assumed” from Bill Ayers’ stature in Chicago, he told the Philadelphia-based Michael Smerconish, that Ayers had been “rehabilitated” since his 1960s crimes.

As The Gateway Pundit points out, how could Obama have assumed that Bill Ayers had been rehabilitated when in 2001 at the same time that Ayers launched Obama’s political career Ayers and at the same time promoting the fact that Ayers was proud of his terrorism days. There is no way that anyone who should be a candidate for the President of the United States would have had such poor judgment. Obama knew.

• On September 11, 2001, The New York Times published, “No Regrets for a Love Of Explosives; In a Memoir of Sorts, a War Protester Talks of Life With the Weathermen” on the life of Bill Ayers.
• Also in 2001, Bill Ayers also wrote about his terrorist bombings in his memoir, “Fugitive Days.” It was not an apology.
• Now get this… Bill Ayers was serving with Barack Obama on the Woods Fund Board in 2001.

Barack Obama has presented to the American voter that he is an informed Ivy League intellectual who can solve all of our problems yet when it comes to Bill Ayers, it seems that Obama does not read newspapers.
