This'n'That; February Fifteenth ["Big-Sis"; Soros Budget; Soros Investments; Pamela Anderson]

"Big-Sis".... a U.S. Senator?!?   
    "Big-Sis" Janet Napolitano is trying to gauge the support of a Senate bid for the seat held by retiring republicRAT, Jon Kyl. Strange as it may seem, she could emerge as an early frontrunner.  I don't see her raising enough money to be a viable contender for the seat, but I've been wrong before!    This is the 'Soros marionette' who tells us: our southern border is secure; albeit rife with murders, kidnappings, drug smuggling, human smuggling, tunnel digging, catapult drug 'deliveries' and attacks on-and the murders of-US Border patrolmen!'

"Soros" Budget Proposal-A Joke!!
    George Soros--using his mouthpiece, "Clown Prince" obama--has submitted his latest budget:  Another joke!!  A proposal to continue the fiscal destruction of The United States of America!!  The document contains the usual 'Soros obfuscations,'  and when all is said-and-done, the deficit and national debt will continue to rise-albeit, not at the previous rates.
    The proposal continues payments to the 'dependent class,' while demonizing the upper incomes--excluding the Ruling Class--with added taxes and increased tax rates.  It continues massive subsidies to the regime's big-ag supporters and the unions-both inside and outside the government.
    There are 14 (count 'em.... fourteen!!) departments within the executive branch--as opposed to "Chuckie-Cheese" Schumer's 'president branch'--which  does not include the various 'agencies, corporations, commissions, etc.'  Several departments are worthy of elimination-if so; in three days, we'd never notice!
    If I had Soros' ear, I'd suggest--first-and-foremost--that he stop "Team Sorobama's" Destruction of America!!  Nextly, I'd suggest that the 'duplication-of-effort' between the various departments and agencies be eliminated, to wit:

•   Either the EPA be completely eliminated OR eliminate vast areas of the Departments of The Interior, Energy, Labor, Agriculture, just to name a few!!
•    Suspend for three years, ALL foreign military aid, ALL foreign economic aid, ALL domestic ag and non-ag subsidies.  During the three year suspension-study the necessity of continuation, based primarily on benefit to the taxpayer-NOT benefit to the recipient!!
•   The federal government continues--year-after-year--to verify that over time, throwing money at the education 'problem' is not the solution!  A student entering the American public education system in 2004, can expect that OVER $110,000 will be spent just to the point of high school graduation!!  Of that $110,000, the federal government (READ:federal taxpayer!) provides but 9.4%!!  The state and local governments (READ: state and local taxpayer!) provide 46.9% and 44%, respectively!  Why have a federal Department of Education?!?!  More union jobs, that's why!!

Just a few suggestions, Mr Soros!!

Speaking Of Soros....
(This, from Marketwatch:)  Billionaire investor George Soros's hedge fund slightly increased its holdings of common shares in the SPDR Gold Trust, a gold-backed exchange-traded fund, and bought more shares of Delta Air Lines Inc. in the fourth quarter, according to a regulatory filing late Monday.  Soros, who has said that gold is the "ultimate bubble," boosted his direct ownership stake in the SPDR Gold Trust by 24,800 shares to 4.7 million shares valued at $655 million.
However, Soros, who previously had call options on 75,000 shares of the exchange traded fund, disclosed no such options in the Monday filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
    Overall, the value of Soros's stock holdings rose to $7.7 billion at the end of the fourth quarter, up from $6.7 billion on Sept. 30, 2010.  Soros Fund Management more than tripled its stake in Delta Air Lines to 14.7 million shares, valued at $185.6 million at the end of the quarter.  Other boosted holdings include InterOil Corp., in which the fund now holds a 4.4 million share-position valued at $319.5 million on Dec. 31.  In a reversal from the third quarter, Soros reduced his stake in Monsanto Co.  and AT&T Inc. Soros disclosed owning 3.3 million shares of Monsanto and 32,854 shares of AT&T.

From The "Smarter-Than-Team Sorobama" Department:
    Who'da thunk it?!?!  Pamela Anderson-A conservative thinker?!?!  The Canada-native recently penned her thoughts on a vast range of politically-driven topics in Playboy magazine-An excerpt:

“I’m an immigrant myself. It was a tough road to come to America and work. The American Dream is seductive, but there is a legal way to do it and there would be more jobs here for people if it was honored,” she wrote. “There is something about the process that has to be honored—and respected.”

Anderson also feels that we need to “get back on the farm and teach our kids that entry level positions in the work force start with manual labor.”
Again, I say:  "Who'da thunk it?!?!
