DC Tea Party highlights
Shots from the DC Tea Party, notice Wonder Woman seems to have showed up.
The socialists get Nancy Pelosi and petuli wearing hippy chicks at their events and the Tea Party events get Wonder Woman.

Band of the Day: 'Old Man Pie'......
Formed out of a piggery in deepest darkest West Yorkshire, Old Man Pie play country rock, americana and pie music. Our influences are many and varied and musical differences are a plenty, but we are united by a pleasure of good melody and lyrical depth.
Caution Language.

"Real" vs. "Reported"...................from Rico
Taking a break right now from considering the USG's unfunded liabilities vs. the deficit (ugly, ugly numbers) which pretty much guarantee TWO things...even 'less' bang-for-the-buck in government services (if you can imagine that) AND much-much higher, significantly higher, taxes (all too believable). It's just too depressing for a sunny Saturday.
There ARE some other things we NEED to know, but really aren't being told by the media (shocking, I know), and while also depressing, aren't made any better by ignoring or 'massaging' the facts. To guide ourselves through this mess, it is better to know the following than to put blind trust and/or any faith in the political denizens of incumbistan (Wash.D.C.).
The economists "predicted" the June unemployment number would be 350,000 but they got it wrong...it was 467,000.
While many parts of the U.S. are now seeing 'reported' double-digit unemployment numbers, the numbers announced by the USG 2 July bring us to 9.5% nationwide. This understates the problem.
- When you factor-in those who are currently unemployed but no longer looking for work....but want work and are available for a job, PLUS the 9 million who are working part-time just to have ANY work at all, you get a "real" unemployment rate of 16.5% vice the "reported" rate.
That is nearly 1 out of 5 potential workers. [Probably more than that in California and Michigan I'd bet.]
The only recovery "green shoots" around are the ones being rolled in zig-zag papers by Team Obama. Hey, Washington: This is not getting better no matter how much wack-tabacky you smoke!
It is NOT a good time to be spending money we do not have to by our way out of debt.
The Sunday Best....
Licence rebel prosecuted as BBC finally tackles TV fee 'refuseniks'. Last time we ran a poll 86% said licence should go.
All public sector workers should have pay frozen, urges head of government spending watchdog. Except the military. Actually you could get rid of 25% of the public sector tomorrow. It would only improve things.
How Guards hero fell victim to the Taliban's deadly mobile phone spies. So shut down the mobile phone networks.
21st out of 23: Defence Secretary’s Cabinet rank is the lowest in history prompting Armed Forces anger. The Army should remove the government.
Inside a Pakistani school where children are being brainwashed into terrorists. Teach them cricket instead!
Red tape forces cancellation of village fetes. Ignore the red tape and lynch the first asshole who turns up to enforce it. Labour hates the countryside and it's values.
Troops' lives 'at risk through vehicle delays'. Sack those responsible for the delays.
Lack of helicopters in Helmand costing lives of British troops. Brown must be charged with 'corporate manslaughter' for his criminal neglect of our forces.
Honduras coup: exiled president to return as supporters march on airport. A plane load of left wing nut jobs!!!!
Pirates 'smuggling al-Qaeda fighters' into Somalia. A spot of swine flu will soon fix that.
Whitehall lines up ‘doomsday’ cutbacks. And not a single civil servant will go whereas in reality we could do without nearly all of them.
Taliban war pushes tanks into storage. Expect the cavalry to be hit in the defence cuts.
US 'may freeze North Korea bank accounts'. Why the f**k weren't these seized years ago.
British Islamists plot against Pakistan. Round them up and boot them out.
Saudis give nod to Israeli raid on Iran. It's going to happen.
America's quick response to roadside bombs outstrips British action. Send the politicians and civil servants to fight the war.
the Clarkypoos Bit.......
After three brushes with death in planes I want a parachute.
