CASH FOR CLUNKERS

This is a most disturbing story in light of the fact that our "government" are running exactly the same scheme, so be careful on any government websites, especially this type, where you are asked to give your agreement to anything. Read the agreement very carefully. Rule of thumb - Don't do it!

HAT TIP TO AMUSING BUNNI & THE CONSERVATIVE LADY

If that doesn't scare you, you're doomed!

As Silly Week is almost over, I needed to slip this one in before midnight at which time I am theoretically going to post nothing except positive stories for a whole day! HELP!

Entertaining stuff, that.

The female anchor was a sexy minx as well, in a sort of highly made up, plasticy fashion ;-)

Raaatherrr, ding-dong!

Seriously, though, I really wouldn't put it past our very own Brownshirts either, Gigits.

It does make you think. Although, in this country the £2000 for your old car seems to be more of a con, rather than a govt monitoring method.

I'm highly paranoid about my blog at the minute. Certain things that have been appearing on my statcounter have made me very wary.

Barking Spider said...

Exactly, Gigits - I've been working at my computer and suddenly the hard drive starts going through a lot of motions when I havent asked it to do ANYTHING at all - sounds like someones in there rifling through my files at which point the only way I can shut down is with the mains switch. I installed two different stat counters the other day - they are both showing different numbers - so make of that what you will. That sort of shit plus the bollocks this bunch of fascists get up to already seemed to warrant this post, especially after their cosy little G20 strategy meetings.

Just because you are paranoid does not mean for one minute that the Bast**rds are not after you !

Barking .. i think there is something missing from your blog list lol

Barking Spider said...

I've just realised that it probably looks to you like there's a huge long line of blog list and nothing else after a certain point - I keep forgetting that because I'm using Firefox with Autopager installed. It just keeps pulling posts out of the archives the further I scroll down so I never notice it - must see if I can sort that out.

I love how two years ago Fox regarded this sort of behaviour as 'patriotic', now it's all tsars and communism

The Big Dollop said...

Barking ya divy

your blog list is no where near enough long enough ... it has room for one more ( Hint HInt )

Teresa said...

This is NUTS and SCARY!!! I like the Octopus analogy. This is beyond far reaching. It is strangling the person so you don't have any civil rights anymore. I will have to write a posting on this subject also. Is this the start of Hitler? Sure seems like it. I don't think any of us right wingers should be going on the cars.gov website. Who knows might happen to us. Our freedom of speech has just been thrown right out the window.

Barking Spider said...

They WERE certainly frothing a bit, Tarquin, but, this time, I think they've got it right.

Barking Spider said...

Penny dropped, BD - consider it done!

Barking Spider said...

I wouldn't go near it if I were you, Teresa.

The Conservative Lady said...

Thanks for the hat tip on this one. First time I've visited your blog. Good stuff. I'll be back!

Amusing Bunni said...

I Thought I had written you and thanked you as well for the Hat Tip, Mr. Spider! Well, better late than never!
I've been getting dizzy setting up my you tube chnl and reading up on other things.

It is an awful situation...everything this evil empty suit does is BAD BAD news! I wouldn't click on anything ever anyway. That was interesting how you said your 'puter starts acting up on it's own.
The macs are supposed to be anti spyware and such, but I'm still pretty wary about all this stuff too. Thanks for visiting my blog,
I've posted a few new video's too if you want to have a look!
Bye, your pal AB
