C.B.S Republican Debate

Mitoosense tuned in last night to the CBS Republican Debate. Moderators were Scott Pelley and Major Garrett.
Both of the last two debates were a step up from the CNN Debate moderated by Andy Cooper. You may remember this debate as the Donnybrook in Vegas. The Hostility Index was maxed out as the candidates mired themselves in muck and Mr Cooper had as much control as Mr Rogers in the Hood.
The candidates took their podiums according to their current polling. White House Party Crashers or whiners Bachman and Santorum also got a podium. CBS is not an acronym for Cry Baby Senators. Both Santorum and Bachman whined about air time. Santorum violated Scott Pelley's request for time repeatedly. Bachman was denied the floor by Pelley twice. The first time sending her to time out in the corner. Later on, time out without supper. Both behaved as children, not Presidential Candidates.
The CBS Blog reported this morning Perry, Gingrich, Bachman and Cain all violated the Truth-O- Meter with false claims.

Mitoosense also surveyed how many time candidates used the word "I" or I'm or I've in the first round of answers. The ranking is: Herman Cain 4 times, Mitt Romney 2 times, Newt Gingrich 1 time, Ron Paul 0 times, Rick Perry 3 times, Michelle Bachman 0 times, Jon Huntsman 9 times and Rick Santorum 11 times. I find the high usage of the first person singular can indicate self absorbed people. Regardless, it's bothersome in speech. Not included was conversation between candidates and moderators, only answers. I'm sure if you surveyed the entire debates the ranking would change little. This could be an indication of why some candidates are overlooked on questions and polling tabulations.
The evening began with Mitt Romney's argument with moderator Pelley about the time allotment. Oh well here we go again. Turned out Romney was correct and was deprived half of his time. Scott Pelley apologized and granted the balance of time to Mitt. This small issue made Mitt Romney to be a man of reckoning. Mitt was right! He would not be denied his time.

The big surprise of the night goes to Rick Perry who emerged from town clown to Statesman. Perry lead the field with "Zero Foreign Aid" to other countries until they convinced America, the money was well earned. He capitalised on his statement later to include all government agencies should also prove their value. Can questions regarding Government Employees sleeping in the Airport, Downloading Porn at Treasury, Drugs and Hookers at Interior or Gun Sales in the Justice Department be far away? Bravo Gov. Perry!
Later in the evening Gov. Perry took a quote from President Reagan saying like the USSR, Communist China would end up on the Ash Heap of History. Followed with an emotional plea that any nation without virtue will fail.

Newt Gingrich found his audience in approval of the executions of US citizens as enemy combatants. These people live outside of civil or criminal laws and are exempt from the Bill Of Rights. ( US Constitution article 1 section 9 suspends writ of habeus corpus in rebellion or invasions)
Newt's comment on solutions to National Security are actually, Four Interlocking Mechanism. Any solution for one must be compatible with all four. They are Debt- Energy- Manufacturing and Science and Technology. Amazing, A lot of thought given to his assessments.

Jon Huntsman was the clear leader in Foreign Policy. His strongest asset by far. Huntsman reminded the audience to be a world leader you must have world followers. He stated American Policies against torture gained respect from people of all race and religions. He was a Hawk on loose Nukes and would not hesitate to attack any nuclear threats.

Herman Cain will get no recognition from Mitoosense. Herman's gotten enough support from yellow journalism, trading in rumors and gossip for two weeks. The AP: Ray Henry reported Davine Intervention claims from Herman that God pleaded with him to become President. The report also included delusions of Cain on a par with Moses. Barber Shop Politics is clearly Herman's forte. Plays well at the Barroom. Last Call for Herman!!!

A very good debate overall. It's interesting to watch Democracy working. People from around the World watch as "We the People" establish the bar for our leaders. Each debate changes Public Sentiment and in the process each candidate adjust to The American Experience.

Most interesting to me is all the Candidates agreed that Pakistan was not in control of their Country. They viewed the Military to be a separate force uncontrolled by Government. We should stop all Aid to Pakistan and address the real issues instead of diplomacy of denial. We are dealing with a ghost governments to often in way to many places. Results Gentlemen no more Promises!!!

Serf Report

Mitoosense is publishing the first ever Serf Report. Not surf, "Serf" or Peons in America. The Dow Jones records daily gyrations of America's Richest. The wealthy are tracked up to the minute clarifying any slight deviation in wealth. No such records are kept to quantify the level of poverty in the United States of America. Possibly, the land that can create such wealth might do well to focus on the tragedy of the poor with similar intensity. I find the lack of wealth far more interesting than those who bath in privileged. The Statue Of Liberty also in New York makes excellent reference to:


Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!


I find the last sentence in the quote to be the pinnacle of irony in "beside the golden door". The truth being Wall Street only minutes away. America owes no man or woman anything. To be American is not entitlements to share in the wealth of others hard work. Such is the case with the richest 1% in America. They're parasites sucking the life's blood from the sweat of the American People. Egregious thieves who build nothing only scalping profits in America. Practicing their craft under the protection of American Military Blood and Treasure who receive little compensation for their life on the front lines.


The elite who weigh one thumb on the scales of justice when legislation is written to favor their own greed. The fact that it is legal or lawful does little to make it moral or rightful. It simply is evidence of the conspiracy of Congress and Oligopoly in concert to indenture "We The People"
The people who are gifted tax concessions to promote flawed business ventures with money from the US Treasury. Huge profits amassed from Social Security, Medi-Care and Medic Aid in the tiny benefits received by the taxpayers. Trickle Down Reaganomics that creates jobs America does not want or need. All this followed with bailouts and handouts to 2big2fail Corporate Wealth Fare from the Federal Reserve. All in the maligned name of philanthropy.


We The People don't wish to punish success. We embrace those who created vast wealth from their own ingenuity. Those who profit in America where all boats are lifted in the rising tides are always welcomed. Those who thrive from the wealth of others sweat are the true villains on Wall Street. Hedge Funds who scalp fuel supplies and medicine before the public has a chance to purchase are despicable. Insurance pandering that provides vast wealth for executives as it denies coverages from those in need.


We The People support a fair tax where all money collected is the same tax rate not same tax. Will some people pay more, the answer is yes. Will some pay more tax, the answer is no. They pay the same tax is true. Regardless of individual or corporations and economic desires. No exemption, No deduction and No exceptions. No April deadlines or tax prisons.


The unemployment rate hovers at 9% eligible add another 9% ineligible and another 9% here illegally and you get the 999 or 27% unemployed.

There are 50 million living beneath the poverty benchmark and more if you could count the illegals.

Home foreclosures are the highest ever and 25% of mortgages are valued greater than the home is worth. Another 25% are in the chute behind in mortgage payments. More children ripped from school and moved to other shelters.

TARP Bankers own more real estate now than ever before in our history. Homeless live in sight of Boarded Up TARP Homes they once occupied.

One in six people in America are on government support.

Our free trade policy resembles our US tax code. Unfair to the middle class.

So if your wondering where could all this wealth vanish in forty years? It didn't. It is now in the hands of America's New Elite Robber Barons. Banking, Insurance, Media. Pharmaceuticals and Heath Care Titans.

And our US debts owed equally are out of control!!! Don't look to the poor to work harder or pay the amounts stolen.......

Long before "We the People" had government, Constitution, President or Congress. There were a group of men who believed the King of England should not control the American destiny. They conceived their future was not in bartering their freedom on the decision of the King. The revolution began from the declaration "We the People" should have no King at all. They proposed America would be a land of free men and self government. These men who fought for our Independence are our first American Veterans.

Veterans are a National Treasure. The Spirit of our Union. The essence of our Constitution and the bond that stitches each generation into the American Flag we love. The obligation all Americans share. They are the Pedigree of the United States of America.

More Pain on the Cain Train

Herman Cain recovering from what he calls false claims against his integrity has apologized for a similar slurs referenced to Princess Pelosi on the CNBC Debate podium. Each time Cain has a microphone in his face he seems to say something offensive which he will apologize for in his next sound bite. Either a unfortunate choice of words or spoken in jest as a defense to his own words.


This should be recognized as a possible insight to charges brought against him in his past. He seems to have an undeniable liability in choosing his own words. Electric fences are one of the most memorable.


One thing missing in all this Cain mystery is why Cain himself has not brought suit against those who have slandered his good name. Any innocent person would immediately bring suit to protect their integrity. Cain has been silent in legal satisfaction.


Mitt Romney has no such false accusations brought against him. Romney would immediately sue if he were attacked similarly. The spectacular success of the charges on Cain have not been used against other candidates for good reason.


Exploiting the weakness of others has been good politics since we killed the King. Rick Perry wisely chose to simply forget his answers rather than face ridicule for their merit. Newt Gingrich unsuccessfully tried to attack the question as absurd rather than answer. Moderators were ready and jumped on his attack asking he defend his position. The moderator exposed Newt's quick wit does not extend past the first sound bite.


The press gives the night to Ron Paul as the winner of the debates. That would make 2 in a row for Ron. Ron won the past round due to the childish fighting exhibited by his opponents. Huntsman also get honorable mention for not slinging or receiving political mud.

Gotta go with Romney next November. I'm sure he's not the best, Mitt's all we got....

Happy Birthday USMC

Happy Birthday USMC since 1775. You have never looked better or needed more.

Miss Piggy Goes to Washington

There is a point when frivolous political events leave the focus of Cable News and slip to Comedy. Such is the case with Herman Cain. The event is no longer political theatre becoming, just theatre entertainment. The candidate couldn't make a run as Mayor of Sesame Street. Kermit the frog would slaughter his 999 plans. They don't have taxes on the Street, so to speak.
The Cain Mutiny and real truth lies somewhere between The Dating Game and House of the Rising Sun. Cain's lame defense is he wasn't there at the time the harassment took place or in his mind it was consensual. We just don't know. If there is something in your past you cannot speak about, then you can't be President. Cain is hiding behind a court settlement between the women and the National Restaurant Association. He was named in the suit but, not party to the settlements. This means he can sing like a bird if he wishes.
A forth person has come forward charging more evidence of Presidential Candidate Herman Cain's history of at least sexual harassment.
The latest alleged victim stepped forward flanked with legal council Gloria Alread at the ready. There are 3 forms of effective communications. They are: Telephone, Television and Tell Gloria. Once Gloria is on board the profits from the Cain's Book sales become community property. I have suspected for some time the Cain Campaign is merely free advertisement for his book. He even gets free FBI security while selling his book. Politics makes strange bedfellows for sure.
I'm not buying his book or his bullshit. I already decided not to vote for him when was an honorable candidate.
