Not Ignoring Anyone on Purpose,

I promise. Some things are in the works right now. Don't want to let the kitty out of the bag yet, but I think it'll be pretty cool.

Meanwhile, here is some Rule 5 action to tide you over...

Christina Hendricks vs Adriana Lima vs Megan Fox

What do you think of this development? In the ultimate Rule 5 goodness, Esquire magazine hands the Robot a reason to include these three beauties in a single post! Not that I really needed one, mind you.

In a shocking, shocking! report, Esquire magazine's latest poll of 10,000 -wait for it- women(!) ranked Christina Hendricks as the best looking female, knocking Megan Fox down to number three with model Adriana Lima coming in second.

Let's just see about that...

Here's Christina Hendricks:

Adriana Lima:

Now Megan Fox:

To be honest, I'm having a tough time picking the winner. This will definitely require more study, to be sure.

April 15th Tax Day TEA Party + Rep Paul Ryan

In my neck of the woods the Party will be held at Ford Park just outside Beaumont  from 6:00pm to 9:00pm. The address is: Ford Park 5115 IH 10 S, Beaumont, TX 77701

I'll be there with my new HD video camera to hopefully get some footage of the event. Don't be too hard on me for the product as I don't normally go running around with a camera. I just figure somebody's got to do it. If you see some dude with a pony tail and a little red handy-cam, don't hesitate to say howdy!

Mail Bag
Today in the mail bag the Robot received some interesting reading. I love when you guys send me stuff. Especially when I've got a heavy workload as I do now.

First up is from Quigley, who found a Politico article that examines Congress' apparent malaise concerning the budget.

...some Democratic insiders suspect that leaders will skip the budget process altogether this year — a way to avoid the political unpleasantness of voting on spending, deficits and taxes in an election year — or simply go through a few of the motions, without any real effort to complete the work.

Nice to know they think they can push the unpleasent truth under the rug for a year. Not happening on this blog.

Next, also from Q, is a neat little gadget from OpenSecrets.org which will let you know just how much those critters in Congress are worth. Quite telling actually. Freaking aristocrats. Go see for yourself.
I may have to add Open Secrets to my list of useful tools. 
  
Rep. Paul Ryan
Listening to GB today, Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan stopped in and shared a new (to me) website where he lays out the solution to America's budget crisis. I like this guy. A lot. I just wish GB would quit slobbering over the good guys. It's getting kind weird. Did anyone else notice that? He did the same thing with Perry.

That's all for now. I'm back to the studio for more tracking and mixing. Have  great day!
Oh, and I included a couple more Rule 5's for ya. You're welcome.

License For Your House Included in Cap and Tax!

Lovely. Guess we may have to spend ten years repealing everything this regime does.

I'm still playing in the studio, Chew on this in the meantime, and don't get any drool on your keyboard. You know who you are ;-)

Got this in the mail bag,..

What next?

  A License will be required for your house--H.R. 2454 Cap and Trade bill -URL's to check out  
 

Don't want to be bothered with "Political stuff?"   YOU'D BETTER READ THIS ONE!  It will come as a huge shock to you if you aren't informed as to what Obama is up to, and it has already passed one hurdle.  It will take very little now to put it into actual law!!  YOU'D BETTER WAKE UP, AMERICA !!!! So you think you live in a free country. Boy, have you got a surprise coming. A License Required for your HOUSE? If you own your home you really need to check this out. At the end of this email is the Google link to verify.  If the country thinks the housing market is depressed now, wait until everyone sees this. No one will be buying homes in the future. We encourage you to read the provisions of the Cap and Trade Bill that has passed the House of Representatives and are being considered by the Senate. We are ready to join the next march on Washington ! This Congress and their "experts" are truly out to destroy the middle class of the U.S.A. A License will be required for your house...no longer just for cars and mobile homes....Thinking about selling your house?  Take a look at H.R. 2454  (Cap and Trade bill).  This is unbelievable!  Home owners take note and tell your friends and relatives who are home owners! Beginning one year after enactment of the Cap and Trade Act, you won't be able to sell your home unless you retrofit it to comply with the energy and water efficiency standards of this  "Cap & Trade" bill, passed by the House of Representatives. If it is also passed by the Senate, it will be the largest tax increase any of us has ever experienced.   The Congressional Budget Office (supposedly non-partisan) estimates that in just a few years the average cost to every family of four will be $6,800 per year. No one is excluded.  However, once the lower classes feel the pinch in their wallets, you can be sure that these voters will get a tax refund (even if they pay no taxes at all) to offset this new cost. Thus, you Mr. And Mrs. Middle Class have to pay even more since additional tax dollars will be needed to bail out everyone else.. But wait. This awful bill (that no one in Congress has actually read) has many more surprises in it. Probably the worst one is this: A year from now you won't be able to sell your house without some bureaucrat's OK. Yes, you read that right. The caveat (there always is a caveat) is that if you have enough money to make required major upgrades to your home, then you can sell it. But, if not, then forget it. Even pre-fabricated homes ("mobile homes") are included. In effect, this bill prevents you from selling your home without the permission of the EPA administrator.   To get this permission, you will have to have the energy efficiency of your home measured. Then the government will tell you what your new energy efficiency requirement is and you will be required to make modifications to your home under the retrofit provisions of this Act, to comply with the new energy and water efficiency requirements.   Then you will have to get your home measured again and get a license (called a "label" in the Act) that must be posted on your property to show what your efficiency rating is; sort of like the Energy Star efficiency rating label on your refrigerator or air conditioner. If you don't get a high enough rating, you can't sell.   And, the EPA administrator is authorized to raise the standards every year, even above the automatic energy efficiency increases built into the Act. The EPA administrator, appointed by the President, will run the Cap & Trade program  (AKA the "American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009") and is authorized to make any future changes to the regulations and standards he/she alone determines to be in the government's best interest. Requirements are set low initially so the bill will pass Congress. Then the Administrator can set new standards every year. The Act itself contains annual required increases in energy efficiency for private and commercial residences and buildings. However, the EPA administrator can set higher standards at any time. Sect. 202 - Building Retrofit Program mandates a national retrofit program to increase the energy efficiency of all existing homes across America .   Beginning one year after enactment of the Act, you won't be able to sell your home unless you retrofit it to comply with its energy and water efficiency standards. You had better sell soon, because the standards will be raised each year and will be really hard (expen$ive) to meet in a few years. Oh, goody!   The Act allows the government to give you a grant of several thousand dollars to comply with the retrofit program requirements IF you meet certain energy efficiency levels. But, wait, the State can set additional requirements on who qualifies to receive the grants. You should expect requirements such as "can't have an income of more than $50K per year", "home selling price can't be more than $125K", or anything else to target the upper middle class (that includes YOU?) and prevent you from qualifying for the grants.   Most of us won't get a dime and will have to pay the entire cost of the retrofit out of our own pockets. More transfer of wealth, more "change you can believe in." Sect. 204 - Building Energy Performance Labeling Program establishes a labeling program that for each individual residence will identify the achieved energy efficiency performance for "at least 90 percent of the residential market within 5 years after the date of the enactment of this Act." This means that within 5 years 90% of all residential homes in the U.S. must be measured and labeled. The EPA administrator will get $50M each year to enforce the labeling program. The Secretary of the Department of Energy will get an additional $20M each year to help the EPA. Some of this money will, of course, be spent on coming up with tougher standards each year... Oh, the label will be like a license for your car. You will be required to post the label in a conspicuous location in your home and will not be allowed to sell your home without having this label. And, just like your car license, you will probably be required to get a new label every so often - maybe every year.   But, the government estimates the cost of measuring the energy efficiency of your home should only cost about $200 each time. Remember what they said about the auto smog inspections when they first started: that in California ? It would only cost $15. That was when the program started. Now the cost is about $50 for the inspection and certificate.    Expect the same from the home labeling program. Sect. 304 - Greater Energy Efficiency in Building Codes establishes new energy efficiency guidelines for the National Building Code and mandates at 304(d) that one year after enactment of this Act, all state and local jurisdictions must adopt the National Building Code energy efficiency provisions or must obtain a certification from the federal government that their state and/or local codes have been brought into full compliance with the National Building Code energy efficiency standards.

Robo-Love Sunday!

Howdy to the readers of The Other McCain from the Robot! There be an Other McCain-alanche going on here today. Thanks to you Smitty and RSM sirs.

It seems Irish Cicero over at Washington Rebel and Steve from The Resistance and Motor City Times have thrown some linkage at the Bot as well.

Of course I would be negligent if I did not mention The Classic Liberal, who has also linked this site on many occasions.

Here are some other friends who need a good thanking.

Mini Robo-Love Health Care Edition Link Fest

Friend of the Robot "Eye of Polyphemus" (which I can now spell without referring back to his blog) has an excellent list of blogs that mention the Health Care issue.

He says: "We cannot avoid the healthcare issue. It is all anyone is blogging about:"
 
That about sums it up Jeff Jamie. - Sorry dude. I must have been drunk and on crack when I typed that. I will now go and volunteer for a flogging. Hey! Look over there, a Wookie!

 
Also blogging the takeover of America is The Other McCain, who has a neat little geeky chat thingy going on, Potluck, The Resistance, with whom I am proudly associated, Michelle Malkin, and Hot Air will be updating as the day wears on.

The Classic Liberal has a guest post from Irish Cicero of Washington Rebel fame that should get your synapses firing on all cylinders.

Pundit and Pundette always have the spot on commentary and analysis.
 

If you need a bosom break, you should head over to TCOTS where Mr. Robert "Bob" Belvedere has some ample information in the form of a raven headed hottie. This link in no way is an attempt to garner favor in the No Sheeples Here Rule 5 Sweater Puppy Contest. No sir, Not. One. Bit.

Lastly, I can't leave without saying thanks to Steve of Motor City Times and Gator Doug for their kind words in regard to my post at midnight last night. All I can say is, if elected, I will not serve.

That midnight post also got picked up by Doug Ross today in the Larwyn's Links issue, for which I am most appreciative sir.


That is all I have time for right now.

Be steadfast in your resolve. We are after all, Americans and this is not over by a long shot.

As for me, I've been trying to work on a logo all morning and can't take my eyes of this f^#$ing train wreck they call Health Care Reform!

And no-one even mentions the fact they shoved an education takeover into the damn thing too.
 

Keep calling and praying.

Peace Out,

There's a Rumor...

circulating that I have naked Lucy Pinder pics on this site. Well. I don't. There are no naked Lucy Pinder pics on this blog. Don't get me wrong, if there were, I certainly wouldn't complain, but seeing as how there are no naked Lucy Pinder pictures here then, I really must be honest about it.

I only post this today to help wash your mind out from that nasty little Karl Rove spell I had yesterday. Sorry about that. I don't know what I was thinking.

Now back to our regularly scheduled programming.

UPDATE: I must be losing it. I totally forgot to mention The Other McCain's Rule 5 in this post. Ignorance is bliss, but not when it costs your blog hits. As penance, I have added more pictures of Lucy Pinder after the jump. She just might be close to naked in a couple of those...

UPDATE II: WOW! Maybe there is something to this Rule 5 business. The Robot issues a Hearty Howdy to all the visitors from The Other McCain. Think I'll just go look for some more Lucy Pinder pics now...

The Obligatory Exploding Breast Implants of Death Post

There have been recent reports of breast and/or buttock implants being used by Al-Qaeda to conceal incendiary objects in the body so as to bypass our screening techniques. This is disturbing to say the least.  From Associated Content.com:

Terrorists with al Qaeda are creating ever more inventive ways to smuggle bombs onto planes, trains, and subways. Thus, federal authorities must keep up and find ways to identify when a terrorist is loaded with explosives and capture him or her before they set off the bomb.

I know that our NSA and CIA and HAS have this situation well in um hand, however, please let me be the first to volunteer for inspection duty. Or at least I'll volunteer my imaginary robot.

That is to say I will happily-er reluctantly don a robot suit and pretend to be afraid to fondle -er um inspect said breasts of questionable origins. I do solemnly swear there will be no caressing, undo squeezing or gratuitous massaging of said breasts, titties or boobs; nor will I gently cup with my hand any buttocks of unfortunate female terror suspects in any way that could be interpreted as a  profiling manner.

Please, I'm a professional here.

I would also like to offer a personal list of questionable breasts that should be examined immediately.

Pamela Anderson

Megan Fox

Halle Berry

Carmen Electra

That is all.

Oh yea, I almost forgot. This post might be considered by some (mainly Smitty and R.S. McCain of The Other McCain) to be a Rule 5 post. If so, so be it; although I would never willingly admit so using such crude methods of attracting traffic to my blog. Unless of course it worked.

Also,

In less inflated or perhaps more inflated news, Judicial Watch Announces it's List of Washington's "Ten Most Wanted Corrupt Politicians" for 2009. I wonder who's on it?
