My Daddy's Common Sense

Is common sense no more?

No Obama Care, Just Obama Tax

1. We are now going to endure Obama Care, or is it Obama Tax, and be force-fed to buy or be taxed.

2. The plan will cover approximately 10 million more people without the addition of any new doctors.

3. The plan will add approximately 15,000 new IRS employees.

4. The Plan was passed by a Congress that has not read the bill to date (remember the Pelosi’s quote..”we must pass the bill to find out what is in it”).

5. The funding will be controlled by a Treasury Chief who is a tax cheat.

6. We will be taxed for four years before any benefits become available.

7. It will be administered by a government that has bankrupted Social Security and Medicare.

Has anyone told them – “we are broke!” Would you go out to find someone to finance your new business venture that was BROKE, or already running in the RED?

None of this makes any Common Sense, but remember I told you this “Common Sense is in short supply” and is almost nonexistent in Washington, DC.

So, go through this list once more and try to find any Common Sense in any of these approaches; and if you can justify any phrase, please post a comment.

Voters to be Photographed

Today, the State of Texas will be in court arguing against the U.S. Government as to whether it is constitutional for Texas, or any state, to require a photo ID to enable a person to vote. Please note that I did not limit this to illegal aliens. I would think all U.S. Citizens would be for this as a way to keep our elections honest.

I have, for years, been asked to prove who I am when voting. Requirement or not, the photo ID that I present is a valid Texas driver’s license. If it is good enough for me, then I just expect everyone else would feel the same– Common Sense!

If you do not have a driver’s license, the state will issue you a photo ID card at no charge. “This is the only thing free that the illegals have ever turned down.” They want free school lunches, social security, free health care, food stamps, etc. (the list goes on and on and on). But for some strange reason, they do not want to show an ID to vote — Maybe, just maybe, it is because if you are here illegally, you have NO right to vote.

The left, or liberal side, thinks it is horrible to make such a request, because it causes undo burden on the illegal. I guess we could photograph them for the ID at one of the places they seem to flock to for the free stuff, thus, no extra trip.

Every time an officer of the law stops me for any reason, even a minor traffic violation, the first two things he asks for are driver license (photo ID) and insurance verification. It makes no common sense for everyone else not to have to do the same.

So here we go, they the illegals holler about discrimination, so let’s treat them just like everyone else and require that they produce the same types of identification that all others in our country produce–a photo ID.

Surely, the Demos can’t complain if we treat everyone the same. But if they do,could it be that they have other motives? — since it makes so much “Common Sense“.

Ripped Off Again

Have you heard the latest?  I know you probably haven’t, so I’ll give it a shot….

ITIN is the new scam for illegal aliens. They apply for the ITIN number so as to pay income and payroll tax–a great thing you say–but they then apply for dependent status for 10 – 12 kids. (Common Sense tells you that there is something “fishy” going on.) Then the IRS doesn’t check on what looks suspiscious…the managers at the IRS refuse to allow their people to check out the fraud. So, the illegal alien gets all their money back, plus extra from you and I in the form of returns. What a great country!

It makes no common sense, but here we go again.

In a nut shell, it’s a scam on the American tax payer. The IRS employees are encouraged to overlook the fraud to the tune of $4 billion in tax refunds, while paying no taxes.  You or I do that and we would be audited, fined and thrown in jail.

Again, it makes no common sense–stop the madness!

The republicans tried to stop it with HR 1956, but the Democrats resisted.

If you would like to read the whole article from which I got this info, go to www.wnd.com/author/cschilling  the article is “And Finally the IRS gets Audited”.  Read for yourself, use your own common sense,  and come up with your own common sense solution to this problem.

Common Sense of Food Stamps….

Here’s a thought….We now have more people on food stamps than ever. For Heaven sakes, the government is advertizing to attract more participants. Please tell me that you see NO Common Sense in that effort. Common sense tells me that we should be trying to limit the program not expand it.

The number of people on food stamps has more than doubled under the Obama administration. Whether you support him or not, you certainly can’t see any common sense in these numbers. The total dollars for the program has way more than doubled; meaning, we the people are spending more to feed these participants than ever. No common sense here either.

Just think about something that I read: as I mentioned, the Welfare Department is placing ads to attract people to the program while the Parks and Wildlife Dept in Yellowstone National Park is putting up signs to say “Do Not Feed The Animals”. The reasoning behind them wanting you to not feed them is it will cause them not to be able to take care of themselves.

Common Sense tells us that if feeding the animals destroys their ability to care for themselves; then the Food Stamp program will do the same for people on it.

Oh, what a wonderful thing, My Daddy’s Common Sense!

What to Expect ….

Common Sense – Now there is something in short supply today! It is, simply, a simple solution to an everyday problem. It is also applicable to very complex problems, if you will just break the problem down. Take small bites, if you will, out of large problems—then, you can eat an elephant one bite at  a time. Common sense can be applied to any situation, political, religious, financial, relationships or business to name a few.

I will, over time, try to expose common sense through this blog on a variety of topics; thus, helping to condition people to use it at will.

Hopefully, the masses can be turned back to yesteryear when common sense was common.

So, stay tuned for example after example of how “My Daddy’s Common Sense” will be applied on all sorts of issues we will face on a daily, weekly and monthly basis.
