Blog about family history or genealogy and human interest stories. All of the Josephs were prospectors and I have decided to make that a theme in this blog.

Puppetmaster Buffett bribes Obowma.

Uncle Warren's words reached the highest level of the federal government: the White House.
Eight days after the piece ran, President Obama placed a call to Uncle Warren during which the two discussed the economy, taxes, and how to spur growth and create jobs.
Just three weeks later, Obama announced his “Buffett Rule.”
The Buffett Rule is a tax plan that would apply a minimum tax rate of 30% on individuals making more than a million dollars a year.
Of course, Buffett fully endorsed the proposal. He probably wrote it himself.
And of course the Democrats were in full rally mode...
I mean, having the world’s richest man support Obama’s tax increase plan is a slam dunk, right?
Well, not so fast. Check this out...
Four months after Obama announced the “Buffett Rule,” he killed the proposal for building the Keystone XL Pipeline that would carry oil from the Canadian oilsands through Montana, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas.
