Beating the Left at their own game



Nancy Pelosi created quite a stir with her comments about the tone of recent political discourse. She feigned controlled outrage over what liberals love to call "hate speech"

But what she was actually doing was throwing "red meat" to her base on the far left. During a report on Fox News Live desk Fri.Sept 18,2009 the commentator points out that the same day Nancy seemed so emotional her office sent out a letter asking supporters to contribute money "so no amount of Republican shouting" could stop what she is trying to accomplish in Congress.

I suspect that her outrage was really caused by the fact that earlier the Congress had pulled funding for Acorn. I believe she was outraged because free speech in a free society had caused the government to make a dramatic change in policy.

Pelosi and company had no problem with strident and militant protest by the left under George Bush. But-I believe-the true source of their frustration is that the right has taken a page from the lefts play book and is beating the tar out of them.


By their own admission the people who organized the March on Washington had indeed used formerly liberal tactics taken mainly from Saul Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals".

The libs have long had experience with outspoken protest and radical and oft times extreme language. I can remember the protests of the sixties and early seventies and let me tell you even if the right is using left wing strategies their rhetoric is quite tame compared to some of the rhetoric in vogue at that time.

The S.D.S openly called for the overthrow of the "establishment",and, the Weathermen perpetrated actual terrorist acts against this country.

Now Ms. Pelosi is all bent out of shape because ordinary conservative citizens have expressed their views in often loud and boisterous ways. the difference though is conservatives have-as of yet-not employed violence. In fact this summers protests have been remarkably peaceful especially when contrasted with the protests when Bush was president

For years activists on the left have consistently made conservatives out to be Nazis and potential tyrants. Remember not so long ago some of the same lefties that have their panties in a wad now were claiming that the family values movement wanted to establish a theocracy.

No I suspect the reason the left and Pelosi have suddenly become so "patriotic" and outraged that we would dare question and stand up to this regime-as well as threatening to bring regime change-is that for once the right is beating them at their own game.

Is Nancy Pelosi Calling for Censorship


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONRySw0uoAk

This is a little scary and somewhat creepy. But then again every time I see Nancy Pelosi it scares me and creeps me out. In the video Nancy gets asked about the tone of the current national debate and gives her opinion on what she seems to feel may constitute a threat to public safety.

What really chills me about this is her subtle talk about taking responsibility for our words, as well as, any as she say's "incitement" that they may contain.

She is trying to raise a specter of people becoming unhinged and doing something stupid. This may be a vehicle that her and her fellow radicals will use to justify government monitoring-and possible censorship of-such mediums as the Internet, chat rooms,social networking platforms etc.

The founders saw government-as well as-government officials-as a necessary evil. This is a good example of why that fear was justified. Especially in light of this quote from aim.org.

"Talk radio’s suspicions of a movement to reinstate the Fairness Doctrine were confirmed by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on Tuesday June 24 during her comments at a Christian Science Monitor breakfast. When John Gizzi, an editor for Human Events asked Speaker Pelosi whether she favored a return of the Fairness Doctrine, she told him an unhesitating “yes,” reports Gizzi."

I may be slightly paranoid here, but I can see this as the beginning of a rational for using "responsibility" for ones word as an excuse to blame critics for things that fringe nuts might do.

I hope I'm wrong but as hungry for-as well as drunk with-power that the Democrats seem to be I fully expect them to use talk like this to resurrect the fairness doctrine.

Bottom line,only time will tell. I hope I'm wrong.

Black Racism Exposed

WARNING: The video link on this page is disgusting.

The video on this post shows a white student being beaten without mercy by some other black students. What did this kid do to deserve this beating? Nothing more than set down! That's it sit down!

According to Jimmy Z at the Jimmy Z show this student had been subject to this kind of harassment before-although not to the point of being beaten-theses kid would put a book or bag on the seat to keep him from setting down. Finally this kid had had enough and moved the bag and sat down.

Almost all the kids on this bus are black and when the trouble starts most get up and start cheering. In fact there are several who hoot time and again Damn! This outrageous conduct was being reinforced by other students.

Could you imagine if this had been mostly white kids and whites beat the beejesus out of a black kid! Hell there would be rioting in the streets.

I say a hate crime was perpetrated here, but the cops seem to think it was just teenagers being teenagers. Seems I read two of them were suspended from school.

Hell if this had been white kids doing this to a black kid they would be charged with violating his civil rights-as well as-racism.

Folks it's time we put race aside and condemn in the strongest terms this sort of misbehavior.

The kids who perpetrated this crime should be expelled for the rest of the year and be brought up on criminal charges.

The most disturbing part of this is the white kid appears to do nothing to protect himself. Whites have been so cowed by charges of racism and white guilt that many will not stand up for their own rights. This breeds disrespect from blacks and encourages them to think it's alright to attack whites.

Black or white this sort of unprovoked violence is UNACCEPTABLE!

Harry Reid and Reconciliation



I couldn't believe my eyes-well actually I could-when I saw that Harry Reid appears to have decided that he would "have no alternative" but to cram Obamacare down our throats.

Has prince Harry gone crazy? A mere three days after what arguably could be the biggest tea party yet Mr Reid says he has no choice but to use reconciliation?

Is the honorable-and I use that phrase very loosely here- senator living on another planet? I guess that he just doesn't get that more, and, more people are getting fed up with this mad dash toward socialism!

Consider some of these numbers. According to Rassmussen a whopping 52% of Nevadans oppose health reform while a scant
45% favor it.

I have to give it to o'l Harry looks like he's willing to put his principles ahead of his political ambitions. If he goes through with reconciliation he's going to be political toast!

The people of Nevada are becoming a little jaded about their long time senator. According to the same article from Rassmussen 45 percent of Nevadans see him favorably while 54 percent see him in an unfavorable light.

Looks to me like Harry had better be getting his bags packed, and ready to go, because he ain't going to be going back to Washington following the 2010 elections.

Arrogance is one thing I REALLY despise, and,I despise it even more in politicians who have forgotten that they are accountable to the people!

Yeah I'm betting that after next falls elections all of our eyes will be feeling better because we won't have to be seeing Harry Reid and-and his cohort in crime-Nancy Pelosi make jackasses of themselves.

Never under estimate the American People

Check out this video. The American people are getting fed up with being ignored, and dismissed by Washington. Come 2010 there IS going to be a REVOLUTION and the pols in power will find THEMSELVES on the outside looking in.

Unhinged Right Wing Racists













Well that's the way some liberal blogs and websites are characterizing anti-tax,anti-big government,pro-reform protesters. In an article from http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/09/13/opinion/main5307094.shtml the writer
,one Gary Younge, writes "It's not difficult to ridicule the American right. Its peculiar blend of paranoia, mania, fantasy and misanthropy has been given full rein these past few months."

Notice how anyone who disagrees with the left in this country is branded as being paranoid having a mania or some other typical ad-hominum attack. This is standard operating procedure for those on the left. Marginalize,and demonize,that seems to be their motto.

Take this quote for example "These are the people who believe that civil rights was really about miscegenation, abortion rights is about promiscuity and gay rights is about pedophilia. There are more of them than we'd like to think. And they are not going away" .This is a perfect example of the tactics of the left.

The Tea Party Protesters are not a bunch of wild eyed paranoid anti civil rights homophobic nuts. They are ordinary citizens who have looked at what Barack and Congress are doing and are concerned it will destroy this nation.

In a similar vein on a site called racism review http://www.racismreview.com/blog/2009/09/13/systemic-racism-as-economic-depression/#comment-10169 someone named Joe posted the above linked article. In that article we find the following quote from The Center for Social Inclusion "• Unemployment is 26.5% for young Black men, 14.2% for Young Latino men, and 11.7% for young White men. • Wages dropped 5.6% for Latinos, 4.4% for Asians, 2.8% for Blacks, and 2.6% for Whites."

Joe goes on to make the following statement " In addition to showing once again that this is far from an egalitarian country, these data help explain why the demonstrators in Washington, DC, yesterday (Sept. 12), estimated around 50,000, against President Obama and his health care plan were almost all white."

I have to agree that a majority of these protesters are indeed white,but, that doesn't automatically,make them racists. Sweeping -as well as incorrect generalizations like this-only reveal the bigotry of the individuals who wrote them.

Mr young goes on to make this statement "Annoying, bizarre, incoherent, divisive, intolerant, small-minded, misinformed, ill informed and disinformed, certainly. But stupid and crazy--anything but."

Well well seems the right aren't the only ones that are annoying intolerant and small minded. That quote is ample evidence of the narrow mindedness and intolerance of the so called "Progressive Left". In fact the entirety of both theses articles are absolute proof of the bigotry, intolerance and outright narrow mindedness of the left.


The left needs to take a deep breath, open their ears, and close their mouths and realize not everybody thinks that more and bigger government is the solution to this nations problems.


In fact these protests prove that a growing number of Americans believe that government IS the problem

"That Will Never Happen in America"





Just another lazy Sunday Morning. My post for today is not anything that I wrote. It is something that was e-mailed to me by a friend and is very very relevant for these times. I have read that there were upwards to two million at the rally in Washington Sept. 12 2009.



This message that was sent to me sums up-I believe- the feelinngs of many of those protesters-as well as my own-our so called leaders in Washington need to pay heed to this message, as ,well as the message of the tea party protesters.





""What would you say if I gave you 11 reasons why the elections in2010 will be the most important in the history of the United States?

1. What if I had told you in October 2008, before the lastpresidential election, that before Barack Obama's first 100 days in office,the federal government would be in control of both the mortgage and thebanking industries? That 19 of America's largest banks would be forced toundergo stress tests by the federal government which would determine if theywere insufficiently capitalized, so they must be supervised by thegovernment?Would you have said, "C'mon, that will never happen in America..

"2. What if I had told you that within Barack Obama's first 100 daysin office the federal government would be the largest shareholder in the USBig-Three automakers: Ford, GM, and Chrysler? That the government would kickout the CEO's of these companies and appoint hand-picked executives withzero experience in the auto industry and that executive compensation wouldbe determined, not by a Board of Directors, but by the government?Would you have said, "C'mon, that will never happen in America."

3.. What if I had told you that Barack Obama would appoint 32 Czars,without congressional approval, accountable only to him, not to the voters,who would have control over a wide range of US policy decisions. That therewould be a Stimulus Accountability Czar, an Urban Czar, a Compensation Czar,an Iran Czar, an Auto Industry Czar, a Cyber Security Czar, an Energy Czar,a Bank Bailout Czar, and more than a dozen other government bureaucrats withunchecked regulatory powers over US domestic and foreign policy.Would you have said, "C'mon, that will never happen inAmerica."

4. What if I had told you that the federal deficit would be $915billion in the first six months of the Obama presidency - with a projectedannual deficit of $1.75 trillion - triple the $454.8 billion in 2008, forwhich the previous administration was highly criticized by Obama and hisfellow Democrats. That congress would pass Obama's $3.53 trillion federalbudget for fiscal 2010. That the projected deficit over the next ten yearswould be greater than $10 trillion.Would you have said, "C'mon, that will never happen in America."

5. What if I had told you that the Obama Justice Department wouldorder FBI agents to read Miranda rights to high-value detainees captured onthe battlefield and held at US military detention facilities in Afghanistan.That Obama would order the closing of the Guantanamo detention facilitywith no plan for the disposition of the 200-plus individuals held there.That several of the suspected terrorists at Guantanamo would be sent to livein freedom in Bermuda at the expense of the US government That ourreturning US veterans would be labeled terrorists and put on a watch list.Would you have said, "C'mon, that will never happen inAmerica."

6. What if I had told you that the federal government would seekpowers to seize key companies whose failures could jeopardize the financialsystem. That a new regulatory agency would be proposed by Obama to controlloans, credit cards, mortgage-backed securities, and other financialproducts offered to the public.Would you have said, "C'mon, that will never happen inAmerica."

7. What if I had told you that Obama would travel to the MiddleEast, bow before the Saudi king, and repeatedly apologize for America's pastactions. That he would travel to Latin America where he would warmly greetVenezuela's strongman Hugo Chavez and sit passively in the audience whileNicaraguan Marxist thug Daniel Ortega charged America with terroristaggression in Central America.Would you have said, "C'mon, that will never happen in America."

8. Okay, now what if I were to tell you that Obama wants todismantle conservative talk radio through the imposition of a new "FairnessDoctrine." That he wants to curtail the First Amendment rights of those whomay disagree with his policies via Internet blogs, cable news networks, oradvocacy ads. That most major network television and most newspapers willonly sing his phrases like state-run media in communist countries?Would you say, "C'mon, that will never happen in America."

9. What if I were to tell you that the Obama Justice Department isdoing everything it can to limit your Second Amendment rights to keep andbear arms. That the federal government wants to reinstate the so-calledassault weapons ban which would prohibit the sale of any type of firearmthat requires the shooter to pull the trigger every time a round is fired.That Obama's Attorney General wants to eliminate the sale of virtually allhandguns and ammunition, which most citizens choose for self-defense.Would you say, "C'mon, that will never happen in America."

10. What if I were to tell you that the Obama plan is to eliminatestates rights guaranteed by the Tenth Amendment and give the federalgovernment sweeping new powers over policies currently under the province oflocal and state governments and voted on by the people. That Obama plans tocontrol the schools, energy production, the environment, health care, andthe wealth of every US citizen.Would you say, "C'mon, that will never happen in America."

11. What if I were to tell you that the president, the courts, and the federal government have ignored the US Constitution and have seized powers which the founders of our country fought to restrict.

That our last presidential election may have been our last truly free election for sometime to come. That our next presidential election may look similar to the one recently held in Iran. (And maybe under review by ACORN.)I know, I know what you will say.

That will never happen in America. If we don't do everything in our power to stop this madness in 2010, may God have mercy on our souls. Pass this on to every freedom loving American you can.

Thank you.Author unknown

9-11 Tribute



This is an awesome video. On 911 and the following days and weeks later America saw clearly the danger that had presented itself to this country. We went to war against those who started this violence and we ROCKED their world.

Sadly today many seem to have forgotten that the war on terror is not over. Our president and his liberal buddies in congress want to go back to a 911 mindset. I fear that as long as they are in power we are at a greater risk of another attack on this country.

At least-love him or hate him-W. saw the clear and present danger these terrorist represented and acted accordingly.

We cannot let up on theses true war criminals until they have all been hunted down and killed or made to surrender.

Freeedom!

Senate Finance Committee healthcare proposals:Tax! Tax! Tax!





"Government's view...could be summed up in a few short phrases:If it moves, tax it.If it keeps moving, regulate it.And if it stops moving, subsidize it." Ronald Reagan

And it seems they're at it again. I'm talking about a report issued by the senate finance committee earlier this year dealing with proposed changes to America's health care system.
The name of the report is Financing Comprehensive Healthcare Reform:Proposed Health System Savings And Revenue Options. This is the senate finance committees blue print for proposals to change our present system.

This is a fairly extensive document-although no match for the House bill- and runs to 41 pages,and is loaded,and I mean Loaded with proposed new taxes. And here are just a few of the proposals that we may see included in the S.F.C. draft bill.

" A number of options could be considered that would limit the value of employer-provided health coverage that is exclude able from gross income. The limit could be based on the value of the plan or the income of the insured, or the limit could be a combination of both. Alternatively, the limit could be tied to a percentage of the value of the employer-provided health coverage."

Here's a big one. this is found in SECTION II: Options to Modify the Exclusion for Employer-
Provided Health Coverage.
There it is the liberals in the senate want to tax your health benefits and make them a part of your gross income.

All this will do is cause some workers to drop their employer provided health care, and since they don't have a public option, force these people to go without insurance.

This is just the tip of the Iceberg and oh what an iceberg it is. Some other proposals would alter or eliminate H.S.A.'s and Flex Spending accounts.

These folks want to take one of the better reform of recent years-a reform that actually encourages people to take more responsibility for their health care-and destroy it-or at the very least-tax it to death. It gets even better in SECTION IV: Lifestyle Related Revenue Raisers we find proposals for new taxes on soft drinks,distilled alchohol,wine and beer. They're going to drive you to drink with all their new taxes and tax the hell out of you again if you do.

If that wasn't bad enough they also propose eliminating credits for domestic oil and gas exploration, as well as ,domestic refining. They have also set their sights on alternative fuels. What ever happened to energy Independence?

The final section deals with proposed revenue enhancements put forth by the Obama administration. Once again oodles and oodles of new taxes.

Dear reader if you think things are bad now it looks we may be going to worse very soon. I have only managed to scratch the surface of this turkey, and if even half of this comes out in the final draft, then everyone who cares about the health, well being, fitness not only of individuals, but also this nation and it's economy, needs to send a loud no thank you to congress.

Once again more change we can darn sure live without

Acorn a crooked oak tree?



There's an old saying"from a little acorn a mighty oak tree grows".

Fox news has reported that 11 Acorn workers have been arrested on charges of voter fraud.

This is very interesting news especially if taken in the light of the recent elections in Iran and Afghanistan.

What-you may ask-do Iran and Afghanistan have to do with Acorn? Well in both of the aforementioned cases the elections either were rigged,as in the case of Iran,or fraught with outright fraud as appears to have happened in Afghanistan.

What does this have to do with American elections and Acorn? All over the nation there have been complaints, allegations, and investigations into Acorns role in recent Democratic party victories.

Fox news is reporting "The FBI and state authorities took six people into custody Wednesday as it issued 11 arrest warrants for voter registration fraud in Homestead, Fla., in June 2008."

We all remember the election of 2000 and the contentious battle waged in Florida over vote count and electors.

Allegations of vote fraud are particularly worrisome. Trust in the electoral process is a cornerstone of any Democracy,and in recent years, such allegations seem to have skyrocketed.

Voter confidence in the electoral process was shaken mightily by the 200 Florida spectacle and now it seems that the Democratic Party may have an ally that seems to be perfecting the art of election fraud.

If nonsense like this isn't stopped immediately our nation's elections may become as questionable as those in Iran Afghanistan or some South American banana republic.

People are right to be outraged at such actions, and the Democratic party should denounce and distance themselves from Acorn and any other group charged with election fraud allegations.

Acorn may have started out as a tiny community activism organization but it appears they may be growing into a mighty-crooked oak tree-of the liberal left able to influence elections and alter the history of this nation.

For the sake of freedom we have to get integrity re-established in our electoral process.

Obama's approval rating ties Nixon's



According to a recent Gallup Poll for the week ending Aug. 30 2009 President Obama's overall approval rating is currently hovering around 50%.
This puts Obama on par with Richard Nixon's job approval rating going into September in his first term

Those polled gave Obama a 52% approval rating versus a 41% disapproval rating. To me this is a rather stunning turn in the Fortunes of our 44th President.

When elected last year one could argue that President Obama was one of the most popular Presidential candidates-in recent times- having won the election-according to CNN-with nearly 67 million votes compared to John McCain's 58 million.

Consider also that Mr. Obama won the electoral vote by a whopping 365 electoral votes compare to McCain's 173. This gave Obama a comfortable 53 to 46 percent victory over the Arizona Senator.

Obama seems to be falling in favor like a rock. This is stunning given the fact he started his first term in office at 68% approval the only recent President with a higher rating after his first month in office was John Fitzgerald Kennedy.

What could be the cause for his rapidly declining favor in opinion polls? I think one word sums it up spending. The people have watched as this President and congress have spent money like drunken sailors with apparently no end in sight.

Americans are disturbed that this horrific increase in spending will have disastrous consequences for this country in the long run.

In another area directly connected to spending the townhall meetings show that a sizable number of Americans reject his health care proposals. And yet Obama keeps pushing a public option and Congress is threatening to pass a public option over the will of the people.

Add to this all the bad publicity from tax evading cabinet appointees and bizarre Czars-that have been exposed as far left radicals- and it is little wonder the American people are becoming skeptical about this President.

Many-like myself- are coming to the conclusion that President Obama borders upon being a Communist-and is at the least- the most far left President we have had to date.

It is my humble opinion that unless this President purges his administration of distasteful radicals, and modifies his support for far left socialist policies, this trend will only continue and Barack Obama-like James Earl Carter- will be a "One Term Wonder".

Who Should We Prosecute?




In recent day's there has been a lot of talk in the media, as well as, by the administration in Washington about investigating CIA plans to assasinate Bin Laden and other top Al-Queda and Taliban leaders.

Prominent liberal leaders have expressed outrage over Bush administration plans to deploy a secret team of Blackwater personnel to take down Bin Laden.
What a bunch of hypocrites! Liberal members of the Senate and the house have decried the fact that CIA explored the idea of assasinating-though apparently CIA shelved the plans-Bin laden.

Apparently they have developed some form of amnesia. I recall that when Clinton was President there was more than one attempt to kill the terrorist leader. Remember when the cruise missiles arrived in Bin Laden's camp, but Bin Laden escaped just minutes before they arrived.

During George Bush's entire time in office the democrats were constantly asking why Bin Laden hadn't been killed or captured. Time and Time again democrats would appear on the Sunday news shows and demand to know what the Bush administration was trying to do to eliminate Osama.

I always got the feeling they wanted me to think that if they were in power they would do whatever it takes to get rid of this bastard Bin Laden. As well they should.

Here comes the rub. Now the Liberal Democrats are in charge. And what is the focus of their rage? Is it Osama bin Laden and the Leadership of Al-Queda and the Taliban?

No the focus of their rage is the CIA, Bush administration lawyers, and George Bush and Dick Cheney. They want to investigate and Charge anyone connected with any plan to assasinate Islam's premier terrorist.

Is it just me or are their priorities totally screwed up. Apparently they think that Bush's attempts to keep this country safe- and I think Bush was successful in doing so-was more of a threat to this country than the War on terror. Oops I mean "Overseas contingency operations".

The idiots on the left don't-and probably never will-understand the true nature of the foe we are up against. We can say we are not at war with them but that won't change the fact that they ARE at war with us.

So again I ask who SHOULD we prosecute?

In my opinion we should Prosecute a vigorous WAR on terror and do everything in our power-including assasination-to eliminate Osama bin Laden-The Taliban-and any other terrorist or terrorist leaders that get in our way!

Trying to prosecute Bush and company for keeping America safe borders on madness!

Response to Reality Check Blog at the White House

Here it is my response to the call from the White House for Americans to express what they think about Health care reform.

Although they want people to join their propaganda spin team and endorse their communo-fascist healthcare debacle. I decided to give what I think is the best approach to health care reform.

1. Tort reform. Lawsuits cost consumers billions over time.

2.expand HSA's Health Savings Accounts. Make them tax deductible,and or give a tax credit for contributing.

3.Make it possible for individuals and small businesses to form groups and get the same national rates that huge corporations like Microsoft, Ford Motors ,IBM etc. get

This is a simple common sense solution which Washington cannot accept because it is simple and common sense.

If you read this contact your congress man, and representative and ask them to support John Thune's and Michelle Bachman's common sense proposals for real health reform.

WhiteHouse Reality Check blog






No you have not entered the Twilight Zone. Even though -now days-it sure seems like it.

No this "Reality Check" is the new website the White House has "rolled out" to replace the now infamous flag@whitehouse.com. Just another dead link!

Yes Comrade Barack wants all good comrades of the great socialist state to know"the White House is rolling out a new website ".

In one of my recent posts I mentioned the flag@whitehouse.gov link and hoped it was a dead link. After I made that post I checked the link and was redirected to the "Reality Check"blog There was a contact link and I clicked it and said I would be asking questions about the HORRIBLE health care bill.

In response I received an e-mail from Nancy-Ann DeParle, The White House [Nancy-Ann DeParle, The White House [info@messages.whitehouse.gov]

Here is the text:

Dear Friend, Our latest Reality Check video features Vice President Joe Biden addressing the biggest whopper of all: that our health insurance system works just fine and Americans don’t care about reform.

Nothing could be further from the truth. So we’re trying something new. You can help the Vice President debunk this myth by uploading your own video on why reform matters to you. This is an opportunity for Americans of all backgrounds and situations to make the case for reform in your own words.

Watch the Vice President’s video and then respond with your own: Need some help? We also have a new online quiz to help set the record straight about health insurance reform. Find out what’s in reform for somebody like you by answering a few questions.

What does reform mean if you already have insurance? What if you don’t? What does it mean if you’re young? If you’re a senior? If you have children? Take the quiz and then share it — simple tools like this are a great way to cut through the noise and get the facts about reform: www.WhiteHouse.gov/realitycheck/quiz

Thank you, Nancy-Ann DeParle Director, White House Office of Health Reform

P.S. No matter your age, where you work, whether you have insurance or not, you’ll be surprised at how much you’ll get out of health insurance reform. But don’t just take my word for it — take the quiz: www.WhiteHouse.gov/realitycheck/quiz
The White House • 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW • Washington, DC 20500 • 202-456-1111


Well there it is folks You may have notice a lot of links in this post. Click every one of them. Maybe we can jam their servers. Also here is a great opportunity for Conservatives to make videos and send them to this site.

Seems to me the whopper is the onslaught of lies from this administration. Oh by the way MY PRIVATE INSURANCE IS JUST FINE.

Tomorrow's post by Freedomlover will be my video which I will send to them outlining what "health care reform" means to me come on America lets send them a video barrage

FREEDOM!!!

This ain't Astroturf!



Indeed this ain't AstroTurf! This here is the real thing. Down to earth-natural-grass plus a few weeds.

Recently Queen Nancy-as in Nancy Pelosi- pontificated that the townhall and teaparty protests were astroturf. But individuals and groups, from all over the nation. are forming what is a true grass roots movement.

If you doubt that this movement isn't composed of -and primarily driven by- ordinary folk check out http://912marchondc.ning.com/ . Sure there are some influential people and organizations involved but the participants. commentators, and activists are every day American men and women.

I myself am a part of the grassroots protest movement that is growing across the country. Although I'm not an "official" Tea Party person I am a member of the Fair Tax movement. A group that has similar goals and is driven by the same anger at the present regime in Washington as the folks in the tea party and townhall protests.

I and my fellow protesters have not been paid to protest, become active, canvass, write letters etc. etc. We are American taxpayers and citizens who have reached the boiling point and cannot be silent any longer. many of us feel that the gang in control of congress and their gang leader Barack Hussein Obama are changing America into a country we don't recognise.

Instead of being the land of the free it appears we are being transformed into the United Soviet Socialist States of America. Get your hammer and sickle here!

Well if this bunch doesn't change their ways the American people are going to cut them down politically- with the sickle of public opinion-and smash them with the Hammer of the ballot.

No the anti-big government protest movement -whether it be Tea Party, Fair Tax, or any other manifestation- ain't astroturf!
Obama, Pelosi,Reid and all the other communistic Democrats in Congress and the Administration would do well to wake up and listen to the people. Ignore the people at YOUR POLITICAL PERIL. Excuse me for shouting but generally if theses idiots think they might not get re-elected they tend to change their tune.

P.S. To Obama Reid and Pelosi, don't try jivin the people because this time we will see through it and hold you accountable

An All out Assault on Freedom





The Constitution of The United States of America,without a doubt, the most important political document in the history of mankind.


This awesome document places restrictions on the power of government, and guarantees the rights of the people. The founding premise of the Constitution is that the government is designed to serve the people.


However in recent days it seems the government sees "We the people" as the enemy. This is proven by how many of our law makers have called average citizens, with legitimate concerns, such names as ,Nazi's, extremists,angry mobs, right wing mobs and the list goes on.


I think this is because they see the citizenry of this country as an impediment to their blind lust for power and absolute control over the most personal aspects of every day American lives.


What proof do I have for this claim. Well first consider the proposed "Cap and Trade" legislation. I have read key portions of this bill,and to be frank, it scares the hell out of me. This abomination will have government agents in every town and village in this nation, tasked with the job of inspecting and evaluating each and every homeowners energy consumption.


While they are in your home, what else will they be taking inventory of. What kind of books are on the table or bookshelf. Good liberal books,or omg, rightwing extremist trash. Who knows?


Then there is the health care package that has raised such ire in the land. Outraged citizens from both right, left, and center have protested this garbage, and for their trouble they have been labeled everything but"enemies of the state". On second thought they probably have I just missed it.


Then there was Obama's call for people to turn in anti-government agitators to the now infamous flag@whitehouse.gov. Now just another dead link...maybe.


But today comes news that Congress wants to give the President sweeping, and unprecedented power, to shut down the Internet, individual networks, as well as ,private computer systems. Hell maybe even YOUR Computer!!


Taken individually, the intrusions into personal freedom each of these represents is alarming. But taken as a whole they appear to constitute an all out assault on freedom.


This last threat, Obama's ability to shut down, and silence, free speech on the Internet is especially disturbing. The first amendment guarantees freedom of religion, speech,to peaceably assemble, as well as petition the government.


The Internet facilitates, and enables all these Constitutionally protected activities. To give the President carte blanch to suspend these activities, for any reason, or no reason at all, quite frankly is dangerous.


Would we allow the President or government t shut down or control newspapers or magazines. Hell no!!.


Why then should this be allowed when it comes to the Internet? Listen up friends, this isn't a left or right thing. This sort of nonsense strikes at the very heart of our freedom, freedom of speech, and cannot be allowed to stand.


If this goes through, whats next, perhaps one day I, a "right wing extremist" will find I am unable to log onto this blog. Then later that night comes a knock on the door.


Can't happen here? People in Germany and Russia may have thought so at one time. But we know better now don't we?


Folks Freedom is under attack!!!

Foreclosures once again hit all time high


The American Dream! Home ownership. Unfortunately the American Dream-for many families- is becoming a nightmare.

According to Reuters:" U.S. home loans failed at a record pace in July despite ongoing federal and state programs to avoid foreclosures, which have severely strained housing and the economy."

Record numbers of home foreclosures? What happened to the billions, and billions, that Congress appropriated and then borrowed from China to help people and lenders renegotiate home loans?

We were told by the Obama administration that we had to do something, apparently anything, to stop the foreclosure crisis. However here we are-eight months into the Obama administrations first year and according to Reuters-not only are foreclosures at all time highs-up 7 percent for July-but upwards to 32 percent from the same time last year.

Well I guess the Bushulus, the Porkulus, and all the other pork barrel spending boondoggles of the last several months have been a waste of time. People bought homes in many cases that they couldn't afford, others have been slammed by the recession and are now fighting for their lives.
Americans were told that help was on the way. Seems help got lost somewhere along the way along with billions and billions of dollars.

This may sound harsh but it comes from someone who barely managed to escape foreclosure just as the first mortgage meltdown occurred. In fact if I had waited just a couple of months before catching up my payments I would have been eligible for a "loan"modification. (See yesterdays story)

This may sound harsh, but I think if the government had stayed out of all this downturn stuff, and allowed the free market to work, we would already be out of the crisis. Government cannot solve our problems. In fact as Ronald Reagan said "Government is the problem".

Things would have been pain full. But in the long run, I think we would have got back on track sooner. As it sit stands now we have so mortgaged -our own as well as - our children's future so much that the next foreclosure sale may well be America itself.

Government Insurance Nobody is Talking About

Picture by Terry Kelly Sedalia Mo
The Missouri State Capitol.

Workers Compensation Insurance. The idea of W.C.I. is to provide a safety net for workers who become injured on the job. It is a program that was started with good intentions, but has strayed far from it's original purpose.

The original idea behind Workman's comp was to pay medical bills for injured workers, and provide them with monetary compensation if they were unable to work.

Sounds good on the surface-and if done right it would be- problem is it doesn't work as originally intended. What it does in many cases is to cause workers to go broke waiting for the state to decide if you are really injured and entitled to compensation.

Once upon a time in America
if you worked in a factory store hospital etc. etc. for someone else you were on your own if injured. In most cases you would likely lose your job and as a result you and your family would be thrown into poverty.

Enter the government. Labor unions and workers in general started agitating for legal protections and W.C.I. came into being as a consequence.

At one time this baloney may have worked, but today, unless your injury is minor, workers comp can be a real nightmare.

I speak from experience. About 5 years ago my wife was dong her job in the nursing home she worked in when she saw a 6 foot tall patient begin to stumble and fall. Not thinking of herself she grabbed him and tried to stop his fall, but to no avail. Alas both my wife and the man in question went down.

That evening my wife noticed a pain in her abdomen but figured it was just a strained muscle. Unfortunately the pain worsened and after going to the doctor we learned she had a hernia.

This is when the nightmare begins. As a result of an injury that clearly happened on the job-although we could never get the doctor to say definitively- my wife underwent surgery for the injury.

The normal recordable incident report was made and we started the process of making a compensation claim. In the meantime my wife was out of work for several weeks. However before she could return to work complications developed, and long story short, my Wife had to have two more operations.

Meanwhile Workers Comp. began contesting the claim. We had to get a lawyer, and before it was said and done, we went totally bankrupt, my wife spent over eighteen months out of work, and we nearly lost our home.

In light of the health care debate raging across our nation, this is a very informative piece of information. As bad as this was ,I can't help but wonder, what if this had been universal health care and we had to fight like this for treatment of some life threatening medical condition. One could die before it was resolved.

In our nightmare with workers comp the state never did pay our medical bills, they were wiped out in the bankruptcy. As for compensation my wife received 8,000 dollars after lawyers fees. Considerably less than she would have made on the job.

This is a system that needs to be privatized. As it stands now the state looks out for themselves and the employer. Under a private insurance plan the insurance company would have to compete for worker dollars and would have to provide decent coverage or go broke.

The state run system doesn't really care about the worker and will only become worse.
Time to be set free from well intentioned, but dysfunctional, government programs. God help us if Obama care becomes a reality!!!

Semper Fi! A Marine goes toe to toe with U.S. Rep Brian Baird

I love this video. I first heard this on the Sean Hannity Show as I was driving home from work. My heart filled with pride as I listened to this young Marine take Rep. Baird a Democrat from Washington State to task for not upholding the Constitution. He is exactly right. The Liberals in Congress have been trampling the Constitution underfoot.

Where is it written in the Constitution that the Congress has authority to force any kind of health care, or , health care insurance upon private individuals. Where is the authority for a government take over of financial institutions,and car companies. Not to mention practically destroying what remnants of states rights that are left.

This Marine realizes, as do many Americans, that they, Washington, have overstepped their bounds. These are some of the most perilous times for freedom and democracy in the history of our country since the Revolutionary War period, or the Civil War era.

We the people must stand together to force these civil servants to once again serve the interests of the people, rather than trying to accumulate absolute power to themselves.

As the father of a Marine, and Operation Iraqi Freedom veteran, I was damn proud of this man and pray God he will run for public office. America needs A Few Good Men.

Why Can't We Drill Here,Drill Now!



Well, well so our government, presided over by -"The Anointed One"- Barack himself,has chosen to guarantee 2Billion dollars to Brazil to drill for oil. (source Fox News)


Hold on a minute. I can't quite figure this one out. We've been told by his gloriousness that we must switch from oil to electric,solar,and wind power, as well as other alternative sources of energy.


Polosi and Reid are foaming at the mouth to literally outlaw carbon and tax everything carbon related including the breath we exhale, and this regime wants to loan money to Brazil?!!


If this isn't the highest pinnacle of hypocrisy I don't know what is. This nation sets upon, and is surrounded by, some of the largest reserves of oil, coal, coal shale, and natural gas in the world. And yet most of it has been put off limits by the liberal socialistic communo-fascist democrats.


What energy hasn't been put off limits,the libs are burning the midnight oil,no pun intended, trying to figure how to lock up! As a result this country is dangerously dependent upon sources of energy that we have absolutely no control over. Our oil comes from people who hate us and are sworn to our destruction. Wind? Well only God Almighty controls that. Solar,only a fraction of what we can access can actually be turned in to usable energy. As for bio fuels? Those are at the mercy of market conditions, energy supplies and the weather.


Our prez promised to bring us energy Independence. What in the world are we going to do go back to mules and tallow candles? Hell we can't even do that because mules produce methane(a greenhouse gas) and tallow, well it(gasp)produces carbon.


Just more of Obama's lies, and, smoke, and mirrors. What ever happened to drill here drill now? If ever there was a time to drill, dig, grow, capture and utilize ALL OF OUR SOURCES OF ENERGY it's now!


Don't let up, demand Freedom . Freedom from arrogant politicians, freedom from stupid regulations and freedom from socialism.
