Another GM Bailout?
And for another reason why we can’t afford four more years of Barack Obama, General Motors again appears headed for bankruptcy.
Forbes.com is reporting that the company is continuing to lose market share and its stock price of $20.21 per share (as of Aug. 14) is 39 percent less than what it was on its heralded IPO oon Nov. 17, 2010 when it was selling for $33 per share.
Forbes is predicting that if things stay as they are the company will go bankrupt again and need another bailout within the next four years.
The government owns 500 million shares of GM which is 26 percent of the company so as of Tuesday the unrealized loss to the taxpayers was $16.4 billion.
Hard Hitting Interview With The President
The GOP is promoting this bit of social commentary regarding the quest by those in media to understand and explain the big political issues that can make such a great difference in our lives:
Social Security Cops
The Social Security Administration has 295 special agents in 66 offices with full law enforcement authority including executing search warrants and making arrests.
Betcha didn’t know that.
This bit of bureaucratic mission creep was revealed after someone noticed the Administration was requesting 174,000 .357 Sig 125 grain bonded jacketed hollow point pistol bullets.
It’s sort of like the Department of Education looking for short-barrel shotguns.
How many federal agencies do we need with personnel having the power to execute warrants and make arrests?

When Poor Obamas Need Help They Go To Conservatives
George Obama, who is the Kenyan half-brother to our president, met conservative intellecutal Dinesh D’Souza while D’Souza was making the film “2016” which is basically an expose of our president.
Well, a few days ago D’Souza got a desperate phone call from George saying he needed $1,000 to cover medical bills for his son. Since George was at the hospital, D’Souza asked to speak to a nurse who confirmed George’s plight.
So D’Souza wired him the money.
D’Souza asked George why he came to him for the money.
“Dinesh,” George said, “You are like a brother to me.”
Gives a whole new meaning to the concept of ObamaCare.
Barack couldn’t take care of his mother’s healthcare, and he couldn’t take care of his brother’s healthcare. Why should he? Those of us who don’t live in multi-million dollar Chicago mansions will pick up the load.
Let’s vote the pretender out this November.
Omnibit Of The Day
Isaac Newtown’s last work was The Chronology of Ancient Kingdoms which attempted to prove that Solomon was the earliest king in the world and his Temple the first built.
Hey Ho At Least He’s Out Of Ohio
When Islamic cleric Sallah Sultan lived in Ohio he sent his son Mohamed to Ohio State where he became president of the Ohio State Muslim Student Association.
Well, Sallah is back in “Arab Spring” Egypt now where he is preaching sermons accusing Jews of using girls infected with AIDS to seduce Egyptian men, and calling for the murder of “every Zionist” who enters Egypt including tourists.
Now some will say that the influence people like Mr. Sultan are now displaying in our one-time ally is just one more example of the mind-numbing incompetence of the Obama administration.
We say look at the bright side. At least this guy’s out of Ohio.
Report: Ex Dem Gov. Shows At Mitt Fundraiser In Va.
Pajamas Media is reporting that former Virginia Gov. Doug Wilder, an African-American Democrat, appeared tonight at a fundraiser for Mitt Romney at the Richmond Va. Marriott.
From PJM:
Wilder served as Virginia’s governor from 1990-1994. He has been sharply critical of Vice President Joe Biden’s comments at an Aug. 14 campaign rally in which he told a crowd of blacks that Republicans would “put y’all back in chains”
Wilder has tweeted that “We are not African Americans — we are all Americans” and “Maybe voters won’t notice that this administration has lost hope and resists change”, according to PJM.
Tonight’s Meal
Tonight’s simple yet delightful meal for which Chef Bill Sr. gets little credit featured Smith Island Crab Cakes from Capt’n Chucky’s of Edgmont, Pa.; Oreida french fries; and a homemade cole slaw — yes this is the little for which Chef Bill gets credit — with mustard highlights.
The wine was chablis from an Carlo Rossi jug.
