How to pass a Balanced Budget #iowagopdebate
Passing a balanced budget is easy. It’s just a matter of spending money you don’t have. I will not cook you dinner or mow your lawn like Tim Pawlenty will if anybody can find President Obama’s plan
Latest Poll Results
Last week I had a poll asking three questions. The first question asked how people found my website. The second issue dealt with issues affecting you. The final question asked the party affiliation of the presidential candidate you plan on voting for in 2012.
Half of the people polled found my website in a way not mentioned in the poll, For some reason, I do not have access to the “other” written in responses. It was a three-way tie for second place between Telepathy, Link, and Search Engine. Nobody found this site by word-of-mouth. I encourage to yell your friends who do not have internet and computers to check out this blog.
The second question showed how different people have different things affecting their lives. As many people were affected by Charlie Sheen as the economy and the budget. More people cared than did people who cared about war or the Cinemafia. (Though I think more people will care about the Cinemafia in due time.)
I am encouraged by the results of the last poll. Nobody plans to vote for a Republican and only one person plans to vote for a Democrat (but only if I am the Democrat.) People will vote for either an Independent or a third-party candidate. I am guessing the third party is the Oudda-Heare Party.
I will be back on the campaign trail this weekend. Campaign details will be announced on my new website tomorrow.
2011 and Federal Agencies
This week I will be taking a look at what will be happening to Washington in 2011. I will be looking at the House, the Senate, the White House, the Supreme Court, and Federal agencies. Today I will look at federal agencies.
The Republicans are now in control of the House of the Representatives. They say they want to make government smaller. There are two problems with that. The first problem is the last time Republicans made government smaller, they added $5 trillion to the debt. The other problem is that Democrats still control the Senate and the White House, and they’re more concerned with keeping and strengthening government programs than they are with managing the debt (Currently at $14 trillion).
Democrats want to give federal agencies more power while Republicans want to give government less power. This is the opposite from when Bush was President and Republicans wanted more power for the government and Democrats wanted government to have less power (and more money.) The general rule is that the majority wants more power and the minority wants less. This pattern will continue until the minority has more people than the majority.
The one agency that could buck this trend is the U.S. Postal Service. Unlike other agencies, the Postal Service is funded by revenue they generate. They haven’t been generating as much revenue in recent years as more people are realizing that you can send e-mail without paying $.44 per e-mail. This is making the Postal Service want to cut mail delivery to 5 days per week and getting rid of Saturday delivery.
While the Postal Service cuts service and personnel, you can breath easy knowing that there will be more TSA agents at airports to grope you and more IRS agents to make sure you’re paying your taxes so the government can pay the TSA agents to grope you.
There will be more government to protect you in 2011 than ever before. You’ll only to be able to read about it in the mail five days a week.

About
Ahmnodt Heare is a fictional character running a real campaign. He is an Independent candidate for President of the United States. His views on solving America’s problems is different than the ideas being offered by any Republican or Democratic candidate.
In the upcoming days, he will give a daily account of his political activities, campaigns, and other behind the scene activities like no other candidate ever has.
The purpose of this blog is to showing the absurdity of Ahmnodt Heare’s platform and show that the two major parties are equally absurd (especially at the federal level.)
If you are fed up with the two-party duopoly, then feel free to write in “Ahmnodt Heare” for the office of your choosing.
On Election Day, tell your fellow Americans, “Ahmnodt Heare!”
Ahmnodt Heare for America. Ahmnodt Heare for You.
Ahmnodt Heare for President 
Confusion Over the Budget
President Obama submitted his budget proposal today. After all of the talk about cutting spending, the budget is still$3.7 trillion, the highest budget ever. Where I come from, when you cut from a budget, you end up with a smaller budget. I am baffled as to how President Obama could cut $100 billion from the budget and still end up with a larger budget.
It’s like somebody weighing 250 pounds. This person decides that for the next year, he or she will drink diet soda instead of sugar-sweetened soda. After a year, this person now weighs 275 lbs because he or she ate more. Instead of telling people that he or she gained 25 lbs, this person brags that 5 pounds were lost by switching to diet soda.
This is how government works their budgets. They will tell you that they cut the budget because less is going to be spent on education and health care. But they don’t tell you that more money is going towards the military and for government administration costs.
Don’t be fooled by them telling you that they are cutting the budget. All they are doing is cutting spending in programs that matter to you and fattening their own pockets. They’re sneaking an extra slice of pizza while bragging about their diet soda.
Put down that slice and tell President Obama to come up with a better budget. Better yet, vote for me in 2012 and I’ll do it myself.
