AmeriCorps IG accused a prominent Obama supporter of misusing AmeriCorps grant money. After an investigation, the prominent Obama supporter had to pay back more than $400,000 of that grant money. And Obama fired the AmeriCorps IG.

That's not change I can believe in.

Congress has turned over its authority to Obama's Czar system.
I call it double billing.

No surprise, is it, when a person of integrity questions Obama (some falsely claim he is a messiah of sorts, when he is nothing but a dictator, who spends our tax dollars on expensive trips and other for his inauguration). Obama wants all us us to be slaves to the state.

Just say no to chains.

Remember some of the principles of Fascism:

1) Government thoroughly and completely controls businesses through tight regulation. The manner of control is usually a large government ownership of the company, usually through acquiring stocks;

2) Private-owned companies are still allowed to remain in private hands;

3) Government decides how many competitors remain in business. As an economy is heading into Fascism, there is always a winnowing out of companies making the same product or offering the same service.

4) The government can, if it wishes to do so, force manufacturers to produce what they want them to produce, or force them to stop producing what is objectionable to government leaders.

Sound familiar?

Little Obama had to get rid of that bully IG, so he called Big Obama to do the job.

Daily Horoscope for May 22

Aries

Keep a firm grip on your money today to avoid anyone else getting their mitts on it. If you're out in public you should keep your wallet or bag clamped to your side, just in case it goes walkabout. You should also make sure you check any bills and invoices that you're given, in case they contain a mistake. It's a day when errors and deceptions are highly likely.
