Blackshirts Begin Big Ten

100 Years of history officially ends when the 'Huskers hit the field in Madison Saturday night versus Wisconsin and begins Big Ten Conference play.

The Big Red's Power of Red will come in droves wearing black in support of The Blackshirts. Go Big Red!

First On Race Day

I have been a happy GM customer all my automobile driving life. Chevy Trucks and Pontiac cars, with the Wide Track Grand Prix my favorite. Currently, each of one of those sits in the garage.

Then Obama and his biblical wisdom came along, forming a team to bailout the car companies, violate the rule of law screwing the auto bondholders, funnel money to union supporters and end the long running historical Pontiac brand. On top of that, now that the Government controls GM, out comes production of "green initiative" vehicles, such as the Chevy Volt. The Volt, which was on the way to be a sporty success before Obama's team stepped in, is now a cost prohibitive joke.

Ford Motor Company rejected government assistance. Although I am sure they needed help, it seems CEO Allan Mulally knew the costs of teaming up with the government. Taking risk seeking reward without using the taxpayer as a crutch is what America commerce is all about. America knows it, and so does Ford.



Have you driven a Ford lately? I see it in my future.

Now that the government owns GM, also known as Government Motors, they don't take kindly to Ford slamming them and the government in a recent advertisement.

With his poll numbers on a ski slope, the Obama administration, thugs that they are, take action to silence critics, as evidenced by reports the administration has strong armed Ford to pull the ad. The Blaze has the full report, which originally came from The Detroit News.

Although Ford denies they removed the ad due to White House pressure, just like your transmission going south, when there is smoke there is fire. Make no mistake, Ford does not want to be in the cross hairs of the White House, for they punish opponents.

With the government involved in free enterprise, free markets become negatively impacted due to the artificial influence and fail to function at full efficiency.

Needless to say, I am sprinting to the voting booth in November 2012, but in the meantime, I will refrain from supporting companies associated with Obama, which includes GM. And while we are on the subject, my rental properties will be GE appliance free going forward.

Have you driven a Ford lately? First on Race Day!

Citizens Are Concerned

Spotted in Athens, Alabama, this classic billboard indicates there are some concerned citizens in Sweet Home Alabama.


Concerned Citizens of America is right on target, for you would have to be a complete idiot, or a communist, to cast a ballot for Obama. Foghorn Leghorn is among the several million who would be far superior.

LSU is looking dominant, flexing particular strength in the trenches......If I vote today for the Heisman, it goes to Robert Griffith III of Baylor.....Arizona State got a big win versus USC, if only they had dumped Illinois....I thought, behind what I felt was a very good signal caller in Danny O'Brien, that Maryland would be a good football team, even predicting them to defeat Miami, as they did, but getting blasted at home versus Temple, even after a disappointing loss to West Virginia, is inexcusable....Alabama controlled Arkansas for an easy victory over a good football team....Oklahoma State, down 20-3 at the half at College Station, rallied back to defeat Texas A&M, positioning itself as the primary challenger to OU in the Big XII....Minnesota seems to be reeling....New Mexico is horrible, and appropriately fired their coach, who has had issues...South Carolina is happy to have standout receivers and running backs, because as surprisingly as it is under Spurrier, they have quarterback issues.

Florida State limped into Clemson, with four of the top five receivers, All America cornerback/punt returner Greg Reid and quarterback EJ Manuel unavailable due to injury. Clint Trickett stepped in at signal caller and did very well, as I suspected he would having seen him play. Although I knew the offensive line is suspect, I never dreamed Clemson would push around the Seminole defense, which they did en route to a 35-30 victory. FSU now needs help just to get to the ACC Championship game, which is disheartening.

The Blackshirt Nebraska defense is also having issues, very surprising with the players returning under Bo Pelini. The offense has been shaky as well, but with a trip to Camp Randle and Wisconsin this Saturday night, things better come together quick, or the 'Huskers are looking at a loss. Maybe they have been sandbagging?

With Wisconsin having similar red uniforms, Nebraska is encouraging fans to wear black to distinguish the fans in attendance. That is cool, I have a nice Adidas black Nebraska polo shirt. However, rumors are swirling the team may also adopt some black for this game, and evidence has started to pop up. While the helmet looks decent, I am against this as I am a traditionalist. Nebraska is the Big Red, not Wisconsin. Go Big Red!

Forgive You Not!

A friend of mine recently bragged on Facebook that he signed a petition floating around the social media world.

What he gleefully signed was The Forgive Student Loan Debt petition at SignOn.org, which is being presented as a immediate stimulus to the economy, allowing those forgiven to increase consumer spending to jolt the economy. They also insist this will lift all boats and is a much better alternative to tax cuts for corporations, millionaires and billionaires.

Yep, class warfare at its finest, sweeping up useful idiots across the fruited plain.

As an attorney and a fellow graduate of my alma mater, The Florida State University, I certainly expected more from my friend intellectually. But then again, he is a proud progressive, the political element that aims to usher in socialism, and this line of thinking falls right under the umbrella. It also lines up against the Founding Fathers, free market capitalism, commerce and the rule of law.

Unfortunately, efforts in this regard will actually have a negative long term effect on the economy, and the evidence can be traced to contract law, which if broken, causes catastrophic damage to economic confidence. The Obama administration, in one of their first moves, broke the rule of law by altering the contractual obligations of the bond holders of the car companies in favor of union thugocracy. In redirecting this order, the Obama administration broke the rule of law and immediately destroyed investor confidence. By design.

For my attorney friend, lets review some things. A company (the University or college) produces a product (the education) at an expense (instructor salary, building costs, utility cost, property costs, etc.) in an effort to attract (seller) consumption by a buyer (student) at a mutually agreed upon price (compensation), which is an implied contractual agreement. Keep in mind the buyer was not forced to purchase this product; they made the choice to do so.

So, now all those former students, who consumed the product, now seek to not pay for it, thinking everything just resets and all will be well, seemingly unaware of the damage to the market impacting their consumer choices moving forward.

Well, there is no free lunch.

When buyers don't pay sellers, the seller eats the costs. Many make effort to attempt to recapture the cost through avenues such as raising prices or limiting or increasing the costs of credit for future consumers. With respect to student loans, state university systems attempt to pass the costs along to the taxpayers, which one might conclude includes the original purchaser. If they are unable to do so, this could cause a restriction on the availability of classes or the existence of courses available. And God forbid at FSU we can't pay Jimbo Fisher's contract!

Individually for the purchaser, or student, personal accountability seems absent, as they are choosing to not live up to their personally pledged obligations, damaging their own credit and making their word meaningless.

Might they consider those of us who have satisfied our student loan obligations? Kept our word?

It is now time for deadbeats and freeloaders to step to the plate and satisfy their obligations, not throw it back on the seller or the taxpayer. Bad things happen to good people, and if it gets to a point of no recovery, bankruptcy is a legal option these folks should pursue.

Unfortunately, the Obama administration is encouraging default for individual Americans. But why would the administration make default the path of least resistance? Cloward and Piven. Under extreme economic duress, folks seeking help find the easiest answer to be the government. This crashes the system and enables the government, never letting a good crisis go to waste, to increase their power over the people, which decreases our liberty and freedom.

I recognize how difficult the economy is, but I urge all Americans to make every effort to meet their responsibilities and obligations, keep a commitment to the rule of law our economic system is based on and be wary of those bearing to good to be true answers and gifts from the same people who are central in creating the increasingly challenging economic landscape.

There is no free lunch. Freedom is not free.

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same. --Ronald Reagan

It was a big weekend in Tallahassee with ESPN Gameday in town as Florida State hosted top ranked Oklahoma. In front of the largest crowd at Doak in a decade, the Seminoles could not hold off the Sooners, who finally got a big road win. Florida State was able to slow the Sooners high octane offense for the most part, but FSU could not manufacture nearly enough offense to get the win.


While OU is off and running towards a chance for a national title, Florida State must now concentrate on winning the ACC and letting the stage set itself. For FSU, this begins with a big road game at Clemson this weekend, who ended Auburn's winning streak at 17. Clemson fell behind by a pair of touchdowns and looked about to be run out of the building, but they kept their composure and gained control of the game, winning going away......Perhaps Notre Dame had built up anger over their 0-2 start, but they let Michigan State have it......Penn State very nearly lost at Temple, behind almost the whole game......Iowa rallied back to defeat Pitt... Vanderbilt stomped Ole Miss, and Houston we have a problem.....As we thought, Miami dumped Ohio State, and the Buckeyes have several more losses coming....UCF, off to a great start and gaining national recognition, lost to FIU, who very quietly now has wins over Louisville and UCF....Iowa State is 3-0, beating UCONN Friday night.....Illinois took out Arizona State, who was hoping for a big year...LSU looks very good, as does Wisconsin.....Not sure what has happened to the Blackshirts at Nebraska, but with 9 defensive starters back from a year ago, they can't stop anybody, which is most concerning......Florida looks better than most thought, drowning Tennessee, who is not back just yet......West Virginia held on to beat Maryland.....South Carolina escaped the Naval Academy 24-21... Next week brings some good games, including Alabama and Arkansas, Florida State at Clemson, LSU at West Virginia and Oklahoma State at Texas A&M.

Regulations Eroding Economic Lifeline: Credit

While many of our citizens remain unaware, a slow creep of regulatory instruments are eroding the lifeline of our economy; credit. If you are working hard to make ends meet and catch bits and pieces of newscasts from national and local news outlets in the mainstream media, you likely have no knowledge of how serious this issue is.

Rahm Emanuel, former Chief of Staff of President Obama said the administration should never let a crisis go to waste. They took advantage of the fear in the aftermath of the banking crisis to power grab much of your liberty when it comes to your finances, likely without your understanding of the "small print."

It has been three years since Lehman Brothers collapsed, and although many of the experts say Uncle Sams balance sheet is improved and the worst is behind us, I don't buy it. Neither does Home Depot founder Bernie Marcus, who joins Mary Thompson, David Faber and Joe Kernen for a frank discussion on CNBC's Sqauwk Box this morning. Take a listen:



The experts are almost always wrong. Discredited economist Paul Krugman and social economic pontificator Jared Bernstein coupled with comments such as "The housing crisis is contained" and "Pass the stimulus and unemployment will not exceed 8%" come to mind.

Bernie Marcus is not wrong, and listening to him will get you more saving, more doing.

With a new wave of foreclosures coming, property owners will be seeking opportunities for refinancing among banks, but the big banks are not able to extend the necessary credit due to strict regulations. These banks can borrow from the FED at zero and lend to the public at 5%, and a banker can have a fine career in banking doing that. But this lending is not taking place, and the alternative option of small banks is being crushed by Dodd-Frank, which quite simply is killing small banks. Regulations have wrecked the residential appraisal industry, spearheaded by The Architect of Ruin, Andrew Cuomo. These regualtions allow the government to pick winners and losers as well, which raises costs and handicaps the entrepreneur.

The markets have been up this week, and given all the horrendous economic news this week, such as an unexpected rise in jobless claims, inflation and sobering news on poverty, you may wonder why. Euro Tarp! You got it, the FED is essentially bailing out Europe, which can be equated to QE3, a new installment of quantitative easing on a global scale. A socialist European dream! Of Course, I am quite sure this will fix the problem with the PIGS? Well, it won't work!

The economy is in crisis, and we are far from out of the woods. Uncle Sam is a major event way from taking a substantial leg down, and the FED is short on tools to fight the problem due the poor crony capitalism decisions made under Obama and Bernanke. Could the crisis in Europe be such an event? If so, will global governance, all for our benefit no doubt, claim more of our liberty in creating a global banking system, which could lead to a dollar collapse?

The big banks continue to get bailed out while the small banks are being killed off by excessive regulation, crippling the credit line for consumers, who are on life support. Collusion between the administration and the FED is extremely alarming, contributing to the unnecessary extension of the economic crisis we are in.

All these goings on are the antithesis of what should be taking place, and strongly appear to be orchestrated. These are critically troubling times, and our country as we know it could hang in the balance. As I pray we make it to November 2012, we must hold our freedoms dear, protect our sovereignty and remember that free market capitalism is indeed the best path to prosperity.

Scheming The Citizenry

Charles Ponzi must be spinning in his grave while Bernie Madoff is presumably bewildered in his jail cell.

During the CNN GOP debate last night in Tampa, GOP front runners Mitt Romney and Rick Perry battled it out once again over whether Social Security is a Ponzi scheme. Take a listen:



This debate is very healthy, and quite telling about how we arrived in the mess we are in and where we stand as a nation.

For decades, folks from both sides of the political aisle have accurately labeled Social Security as a Ponzi scheme. For example, Jonathan Hoenig often battles Democratic strategerists on FOX Business Network making the case in pinpoint fashion.

In fact, Social Security is worse than a Ponzi scheme, as those involved with a Ponzi scheme engage the activity on their own, rather than being forced to partake.

Rick Perry is quite correct that this program is in need of extensive reform, as it is currently bankrupt and unsustainable. Although, as Perry correctly points out, Mitt Romney and a large contingent of pundits are attempting to scare seniors by implying they will not receive their benefits, they will not be impacted by any proposed changes. President Obama even proclaimed he could not guarantee checks for our seniors, in yet another inaccuracy out his arrogant mouth. Scare tactics aimed at our seniors in this perilous economic environment is pathetic, and it implies our seasoned citizens are ill informed.

Our senior community, as well as many of those who have freshly entered the workforce, understand that changes to the program are vital for it to survive, for the status quo is doomed for failure sooner than later. They appreciate the truth, something that is far too often missing in politics. Like health care, a private sector component to Social Security would be beneficial, and gives participants choices in investment vehicles which offer opportunities for greater return on investment.

It is time for the truth, and the Ponzi scheme known as Social Security is a great place to start the debate on reforming, or with any luck eliminating, dozens of entitlement programs that are in fact bankrupting our country.

Ultimately, the federal government should be out of this business, allowing individuals to plan for retirement in ways that best serve their particular interests. If a base of support is necessary, each state can produce programs that best suit the needs of its citizens. It will take decades for this to occur, but steps taken now through a broad initiative can begin the lengthy process.

For folks my age, mid forties, and below, retirement plan forecasts should not include anticipation of any return from Social Security. Folks saving for retirement should indeed focus on a collection of market base instruments for a solid return on investment.

I am borrowing a line from someone, but the thriller played in Ann Arbor Saturday night was a-MAIZE-ing. Three touchdowns in the final minute and a half saw Michigan pull out a home victory over Notre Dame, sending the Irish to 0-2. While it was exciting, the defensive effort late in the game were horrendous, which bodes bad for both of these teams moving forward.....Oklahoma State looked real good on Thursday night, and T-Boone Pickens has invested well int he facilities in Stillwater....Iowa State, with a speedy and elusive signal caller, upended Iowa in Ames winning the CyHawk Trophy, although I thought I saw in the bedlam of the victory it may have gotten damaged....Georgia is 0-2, casting doubt on the future of Coach Mark Richt. I have met Coach Richt several times and I think highly of him, so count me among his fans. The Dawgs are young on D, but did put 42 points on the board against a strong South Carolina team. A stellar defensive by top ranked freshman Jadeveon Clowney sealed the fate of UGA. Clowney looks like a future All American; take a look:



Arizona State got a big win, outlasting Missouri out in Tempe....So far so good for Florida....Ohio State, who barely got by Toledo, may in trouble visiting the Hurricanes, who will be ready....Florida State may be sandbagging, but the offensive line looks suspect, so for the Seminoles to win, EJ Manuel will have to come up big, both with his feet and his arm. I have faith in the defense....Nebraska also is lacking up front right now, and they will need something more than fleet footed Taylor Martinez offensively down the road....Central Florida bombed Boston College, who although light in the interior on both sides, really got it taken too them. UCF is emerging as a BCS buster....Alabama strangled Penn State with defense as most expected....Minnesota and Purdue both suffered bad losses...Colorado and Cal played a thriller also....Many thought Auburn would get beat by up and coming Mississippi State, myself included, but played strong on the plain and took out the Bulldogs with a goal line stand...Michigan State looks good, but has an against the wall Notre Dame this weekend...Wake Forest dumped NC State, which would not have happened had the Wolfpack retained QB Russell Wilson, who had another good performance directing the offense at Wisconsin...Clemson was scared by Wofford....Vanderbilt got a big win versus UCONN, who was in the Orange Bowl a year ago.

Sunday Night Song

Today, on the tenth anniversary of the horrific events of September 11, 2001, the 9-11 Memorial was dedicated among a series of events during this day of remembrance.

At the events at Ground Zero this morning, America's Mayor, Rudy Giuliani, read from scripture.



Very shortly afterward, Paul Simon performed an acoustic rendition of his terrific song he made famous as part of the duo Simon & Garfunkel, The Sound of Silence. The song is as beautiful as the Memorial is, and is the choice for the Sunday Night Song for 9-11-11.



May God Bless all those who gave on this day, the families of those lost and The United States of America.

Never Forget

Islamic terrorists remain committed to killing us.









Have you forgotten?





Top of the world





Evil spit in our face on the morning of September 11, 2001. As America sought comfort on this horrendous day, most found God watching over us. We had faith, which helped us through the incredible grief. With evil lurking all around us, we found love, courage and faith standing tall in the fire.

Although this is a day of remembrance, we must never forget!

I have not forgotten. Never Forget! Political correctness be damned, we must remain committed to taking out evil wherever it exists.

Robert Griffin III was spectacular in leading Baylor to a high flying victory over ranked Texas Christian. With TCU rallying from 25 down to take a late fourth quarter lead, Griffin III and the Bears actually beat the Horned Frogs twice. Griffin III would be a Heisman front runner if he played at a major school, and may get my vote anyhow....Defending champion Auburn was nothing short of lucky to edge Utah State, and if this gives us a glimpse of the future, the Tigers are looking five losses in the eyeball.....Notre Dame, preseason #6 in Athlons, got dumped in the rain at home, turning the ball over five times inside the USF five yard line. USF beating you at home has gotten a handful of coaches fired.....Georgia got manhandled by Boise State, and Mark Richt had better light a fire fast, for his seat in burning....As is Rick Neuheisel at UCLA, who fell to Houston and their high powered offense.....UCF opened to splendid reviews on both sides of the ball and is looking to enter the top 25 with a win this week over Boston College.....Washington is most fortunate to remain unbeaten, as is Purdue....LSU punched Oregon in the mouth, just like we thought, but was very impressive in doing so.....Kentucky has offensive issues, while Virginia Tech and North Carolina looked good.....Missouri, USC and Clemson were not sharp...Florida State and Nebraska have offensive line issues but are among the best in the nation on defense....OU looked good, with heavy hearts on learning of the death of NFL Hall of Famer Leroy Selmon, Tampa Bay's favorite Buc who along with brothers Dewey and Lucious at OU, formed as ferocious a defensive line the Big 8 had ever seen.....Russell Wilson looked like he had been at Wisconsin his whole career, and established himself as a candidate for Big Ten MVP and potentially a Heisman Trophy, and gives Wisconsin hope for a big season if they can clean it up defensively....Bad weather plagued several games over the weekend, with Western Michigan at Michigan and Marshall at West Virginia on two separate days being "called". While on rare occasion a game may need to be delayed due to lightning in the immediate area, officials everywhere have taken political correctness to the extreme. I have been in Tallahassee during a delay with the most beautiful sunshine imaginable outside but lightning hitting five miles away. This business of calling games is unacceptable, for that hurts statistics and the opportunity for guys like me to get a chance to play. The elements are part of the game, so unless an electrical storm of the ages is on top of the stadium, let the pigskin fly....Behind Danny O'Brien, a true sophomore quarterback worth all the accolades, Maryland, in dazzling new uniforms, held off Miami at College Park. UM quarterbacks continue to throw to the wrong team, which leads to losses. Anyhow, the Terrapin uniforms created quite a stir, and as a descendant of Lord Baltimore, I kind of liked them, particularly the helmets.
