Whilst the rest of the world plays out all around our ears, it’s politics as usual with Mr Obama as he “pays back” his good — his very good — friends, the Trial Lawyers. These wonderful people gave Mr Obama more than $45 million dollars in 2008.

Because today, Thursday, is Day One of a wonderful monetary windfall for trial lawyers: Poolmageddon.

It’s the drop-dead day when all community pools, motels and hotels must have affixed to their sites a permanent — not a portable — hoist and winch assembly so that disabled persons may be lowered and raised into said pools, in order to allow accommodation.

From Conn Carroll of TheWashingtonExaminer.com:

President Obama’s Department of Justice — led by Attorney General Eric Holder — has found a new way to make the Americans with Disabilities Act pay off for Democratic trial lawyer campaign donors.

Since the ADA first became law in 1990, the DOJ has been issuing “guidelines” that businesses must follow to comply with a multitude of the nation’s civil rights laws.

For example, if a restaurant bathroom has a light switch that is 52 inches above the floor, then that business is in compliance. But if the light switch is 53 inches above the floor, than the restaurant owner is a civil rights violator subject to fines from the government and liable for civil damages from any disabled individual who ever used the bathroom.

The DOJ has been issuing a growing wave of such guidelines over the years, reaching an ever larger portion of business activities. In September 2010, the DOJ issued guidelines for “recreational facilities,” including a new rule that all public access swimming pools must provide a lift capable of moving disabled patrons from their wheelchairs into the water.

Compliance with the rule requires pool owners to have a lift for each “water element” in their facility. So if your local community pool also has a spa, both the spa and the pool must be “accessible.” But if you have two spas, don’t worry, only one lift is required.

But then industry leaders began hearing rumors last year that Obama’s DOJ would require permanently fixed lifts for each pool and spa. They began to write letters to DOJ asking for clarification on the issue.

On Jan. 31 of this year, DOJ granted the industry’s call for a clarification: But it was not the answer they wanted. All 300,000 public pools in the United States must install a permanent fixed lift. The deadline for compliance is tomorrow, March 15. Call it “Poolmageddon.”

There is no way all 300,000 pools can install permanent lifts by Thursday. There simply are not enough lifts in existence or enough people who know how to install them, according to industry spokesmen. Plus, each lift costs between $3,000 and $10,000 and installation can add $5,000 to $10,000 to the total.

You grok that? You, as the director or panel or agency supporting a local community pool — no matter the size, location or ability to pay — could find yourselves facing a potential $15,000 bill in terms of one lift installation. Plus every individual motel or hotel or chain sporting a pool in America.

Not that the government is going to step to each pool just yet; oh no. They have the Trial Lawyers to do that dirty work. And don’t think trial lawyers don’t have extensive lists of community pools in their regions — lists of every community pool that isn’t in compliance the microsecond today rolled around.

Ah, the ADA — draining taxpayers and businesses dry via Trial Lawyers from the moment it stepped into view, in 1990. Thank you kindly, President George HW Bush.

Major US Airport To Evict TSA Screeners

Orlando Sanford International could prompt stampede of other opt-outs

One of America’s busiest airports, Orlando Sanford International, has announced it will opt out of using TSA workers to screen passengers, a move which threatens the highly unpopular federal agency’s role in other airports across the nation.

“The president of the airport said Tuesday that he would apply again to use private operators to screen passengers, using federal standards and oversight,” reports the Miami Herald.

With Sanford International having originally been prevented by the TSA from opting out back in November 2010 when the federal agency froze the ability for airports to use their own private screeners, a law passed by the Senate last month forces the TSA to reconsider applications.

Larry Dale hinted that the move was motivated by the innumerable horror stories passengers have told of their encounters with the TSA, noting that the change was designed to provide a more “customer friendly” operation.

I can only respond: kick whatever federal presence occurs in any state and county or city venue OUT. Their bastard dollars aren’t worth the whoring you’ll have to do for them.

When your local politician lies and says “Vote for me, I’ll fix all the potholes on your street,” you’re talking roughly $1,000 worth of asphalt.

When Obama promised ObakaKare, a wave of retardation blasted through DC so that it was passed in the dark of night with little time for examination — in contravention of — again — his promises of “transparency” and “posting on the internet” and “time to examine his proposals”:

You local politician lied to you.

And Mr Obama LIED to you as well — if you’re an American Taxpayer and an actual contributor to society — about ObakaKare.

He didn’t “prevaricate” or was “misquoted” or “undersold the program” or “soft-peddled the numbers” or “equivocated” or “fibbed” or “misreported” or was “mendacious” or offered an “obliquity” or told a “tale” or a “whopper”. . .

No.

Obama LIED.

Allow me to repeat: he LIED.

From the WashingtonExaminer.com:

President Obama’s national health care law will cost $1.76 trillion over a decade, according to a new projection released today by the Congressional Budget Office, rather than the $940 billion forecast when it was signed into law.

Democrats employed many accounting tricks when they were pushing through the national health care legislation, the most egregious of which was to delay full implementation of the law until 2014, so it would appear cheaper under the CBO’s standard ten-year budget window and, at least on paper, meet Obama’s pledge that the legislation would cost “around $900 billion over 10 years.” When the final CBO score came out before passage, critics noted that the true 10 year cost would be far higher than advertised once projections accounted for full implementation.

And to further confirm that our country is broken and essentially beyond repair absent some form of insurrection:

It’s likely that Mr Obama will be voted into a second term for two very salient reasons:

• The GOP have no viable candidate, and
• Too many persons want Free Cheese and will utilize their vote to achieve same

You won’t find the truth on ABC, CBS, NBC. You won’t find the truth on major forms of American media. You won’t find the truth in your local newspaper.

You’ll find it over the internet.

Expect, then, the internet to be attacked rapidly and roundly in Mr Obama’s second term — likely in terms of “NATIONAL SECURITY.”

Brace yourselves for this impact, my fellow bloggers and readers.

The truth — like the above — cannot afford to continue to bleed out.

So sayeth DC. Your Masters.

Let me be abundantly clear:
I place Conservatives — and they break down — into three clear categories:

• Social Conservatives;
• Fiscal Conservatives;
• Defense Conservatives

Perhaps I have hedged on my true beliefs until now. I thought my core foundations would have been obvious. But, at this point, I need to make my thoughts clear beyond clear.

In terms of Conservatism, these are my priorities:

• Defense
• Fiscal
• Social

I don’t find homosexual marriages a massive priority. I don’t find abortion a massive priority. Certainly not over fiscal and defense issues. Social issues are my last priority because I am a Realist.

Let me be blunt:

Who gets aborted? Those who are mostly white, with blacks close behind. Mexicans not so much, with Asians lagging behind and Muslims not even in the running.

Meaning: Leftist WHITES are an endangered species. They are the most aborted. Good for me, good for you. Kill your babies, Leftists!

Some blacks are an endangered species. However:

Mexicans are increasing and so are Muslims.

When you Google “demography is prophecy” — guess what? You get ME!

Holder’s DOJ in stellar form once again:

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department‘s civil rights division on Monday objected to a new photo ID requirement for voters in Texas because many Hispanic voters lack state-issued identification.

Texas follows South Carolina as the second state in recent months to become embroiled in a court battle with the Justice Department over new photo ID requirements for voters.

Photo ID laws have become a point of contention in the 2012 elections. Liberal groups have said the requirements are the product of Republican-controlled state governments and are aimed at disenfranchising people who tend to vote Democratic — African-Americans, Hispanics, people of low-income and college students.

Proponents of such legislation say the measures are aimed at combating voter fraud. But advocacy groups for minorities and the poor dispute that and argue there is no evidence of significant voter fraud.

But here’s the most important paragraph in the story, direct from the office of Captain Obvious:

In a letter to Texas officials that was also filed in the court case in Washington, the Justice Department said Hispanic voters in Texas are more than twice as likely than non-Hispanic voters to lack a driver’s license or personal state-issued photo ID. The department said that even the lowest estimates showed about half of Hispanic registered voters lack such identification.

Most rational American citizens would posit, then, having read the above: “might this not be because those ‘Hispanics’ mentioned are illegal?“

Clearly, the Obvious may in fact be too obvious for our federal gubmint officials.

Try this scenario on for size:

Let’s say Canada was in turmoil. Let’s say Canadians were starting to depart Canada and simply walk over their frontier to the border and cross with impunity — as occurs on our southern border. However, let’s say that it was common knowledge that most illegal Canadians had a history of voting either Republican or Conservative.

With that in mind, you and I both know that “securing” the border would become a massive priority, there would be voter ID laws and swarms of DOJ agents making checks at businesses throughout the nation. Deportations would occur on a massive level and the government would be screaming for more agents and armed soldiers on that border frontier.

Because Canadians wouldn’t generally vote for Demorats.
