BIG BAILOUTS
They want amnesty. TEA P doesn’t.
GOOD synopsis...
I just loser "political consultants" telling candidates what they MUST do to get elected!
Of course their advice never works but loser candidates continue to believe them - and we, as a party, continue to lose!!!
why would anyone pay outragious fees for such a useless membership?
I think they are in favor of government controlled everything and anything, because the elements of government are phenomenally cheaper to buy, with much greater certainty of outcome, with greater promise of being able to obtain yet more future favors than whatever they are scheming to obtain with whatever they are doing now, today. There is nothing a Philip Morris or a Proctor and Gamble or a GE can do with their own resources in terms of developing new product that is anything near as cheap as paying off politicians. And the outcome can be hedged by paying off both sides. These are 100:1 bets. And in terms of opening up new markets, they would have to pay off the locals *anyway* so what’s the difference?
Call me cynical, but I believe this is the established pattern . It is utterly lawless. I can’t give you a date when this became solid policy, but certainly the model was cast in steel-reinforced concrete when the banks were largely able to buy off all the regulatory agencies for the many frauds they committed leading up to the subprime crisis. These are the smartest and most avaricious guys in the room. Miniscule numbers of banking execs were prosecuted, and, I believe, the whole Dodd-Frank thing was orchestrated as a grand piece of Kabuki theater to give the impression that government was doing something about it. By then, the horse was out of the barn. As of today, the statue of limitations has pretty much run on that whole era.
No fools on our ticket.”
Your ticket? Bite me you moron.........
I telephoned the U.S. Chamber of Commerce:
Chamber of Commerce of the
United States of America
1615 H Street, NW
Washington, DC 20062-2000
Main Number: 202-659-6000
Customer Service: 1-800-638-6582
The press representative could not provide an immediate response to the question of whether or not the Newsmax article is accurate. She suggested sending a written request for the information so they could “get back to me.”
Readers may check the Website of their local Chamber of Commerce to find a list of members, who may be prompted to indicate whether or not they approve the use of their contributions to defeat TEA Party candidates in the upcoming primary elections.
They can take their Shamnesty and shove it up their Soetoro holes.
No wonder the C of C, the GOPe, and every other anti-conservative group, look to Scott Reed for advice, he's a loser and they all are comfortable losing, then making deals.
I’m very concerned that the candidates that the CoC back in this election, as well as in 2016, will quietly or even secretly support a “Single-Payer” system as a fix to 0bamacare.
I’ll cite another example.
Once I was at (I think) the Waco airport. Small airport, 2 hour holdover. So I go to the bar and look for a beer to drink. Nothing they had really appealed to me, so I said “heck with it, I’ll take a Budweiser”.
Out of the blue, guy next to me offered to pay for my beer. Turns out he was the regional sales manager for Anheuser Busch, the owner of Bud (at the time, not now)
I of course thanked him and we started talking. I asked him why Bud didn’t seem to get much involved in producing dark beers, specialty beers.
His response was something like “All the specialty beers we could ever produce and market and distribute wouldn’t amount to anything compared to a 1/3rd of 1% sales increase of plain old Budweiser”.
The U.S.Chamber of Commerce IS NOT conservative..
Statist to the MAX... the enemy... for sedition.. progressive... Fascist..
The whole of creation is in a state of entrophy - decay - dissolution. This is the result of our First Parents' disobedience. Dylan wrote a song about it, "Everything Is Broken."
God Himself became Incarnate to provide the ultimate solution to the situation. Until the final reconciliation, we have to deal with the idea that every thing that the human hand touches is subject to the contamination of evil.
Until the Restoration - the New Heavens and New Earth - the "mystery of iniquity" indeed does work. Our baptismal promise is to reject Satan and all his works and empty promises.
Wisdom discerns his works.
I’m as concerned as you, but in my more enlightened moments I try to remind myself that there is little I can do about it.
It may sound weird and perverse; I would rather have a SP system than what we are headed for. Because fundamentally, even though I am a capitalist and I believe that ins companies have a right to exist and operate, I do not think they add anything to the overall delivery of healthcare other than relentless cost increases. Not that I think gov’t would do a better job. It’s just that the more hands are stretched out on the path from seller to buyer of *anything* the more people want to get paid.
IMO the whole idea that it is some kind of societal or religious sin to pull out your freaking wallet or checkbook when you go to the doctor and consume medical care is the fundamental stupidogram behind this whole thing.
Cash for services rendered is the best solution.
I’m looking for a study on “How Gov’t subsidies actually increase prices”
They also have a facebook page where you can leave comments:

Wouldn’t it be nice if this were spent against DEMOCRATS?
The Gop and CofC.. Stuck on Stupid.
No wonder this nation has issues,, the parties don’t learn from or heed history.
a quick review would show the eGOP candidates got beat, the TEA party candidates won .. how tough is it for that to sink into the heads of these noodleheads.
I’ll say it in simple terms. Scott Reed is their strategist. The chamber officials hired an idiot to do their campaign. Reed is Bob Dole’s campaign guy, and also is a RINO to the point that he makes Rove look conservative.
