OBAMA CUTS NATIONAL DEFENSES

SPECIAL POST

With no fanfare and little mention, President Obama announced last week that he is unilaterally cutting the nation’s nuclear stockpile by 50%. This was a unilateral move; no other country gave anything back in return.


I believe that the international stability of a nation is directly proportional to its perceived vulnerability. That is to say that you are in a better position on the world stage if you deal from a position of strength. That is not to say that you must be a bully. However, no other country is likely to mess with your country if you have the ability to annihilate it.


The converse is true; the weaker you are, the more countries are willing to contemplate ill deeds against you. In daily life, the people who get mugged or physically attacked are women, children and the elderly and they are all perceived to be weak. Rarely does an attack occur against a strong and able-bodied man. Take health care, for another example. The President feels that he has enough political power to make Congress do whatever he wants of them, and he dismisses the American people as being dumb and having little or no power. But, when the American people band together and chase Congress and the President out, that will be a lesson remembered in the halls of Washington for many decades to come. That’s why Americans not only have guns on their nightstands, but they also don’t mind letting the rest of the neighborhood know it.


The unilateral reduction of nuclear weapons is a signal to other nations that we are vulnerable. This move is just as bad, if not much worse, as trying Khalid Sheik Mohamed in a civilian court. Obama may be willing to take the blame, but if we’re all dead, who’s going to be left to blame him?

Before Speaker Pelosi orders the House switchboard and Internet shut off again. 

NANCY PELOSI: Our Nation’s Shame

Word leaked out Monday on FOX News that, by all rights, should have Americans incensed at how our Washington politicians are conducting themselves.According to Karl Rove, Pelosi rules her roost like the Gestapo. She dictates how her fellow Democrats in the House will vote, by threatening to keep them from getting what they need in their states, by intimidating them with promises to remove them from their various committee assignments, by bribing them with taxpayer funds, and by any other means available to her. You can almost visualize her in her black, knee-high shiny leather stiletto boots with a whip in one hand and a sword in the other, barking orders and daring anyone to defy her.

Our nation was built on what we have assumed to be a rock-solid foundation of freedom of expression and the right to vote your conscience. To hear that someone in a position of high power, second in line for ascension to the Presidency, is actively controlling votes and stifling freedom of expression is beyond concerning. This is no less a matter of fascism than is rolling out the tanks and sending the storm troopers onto the streets. 

What’s even worse is that no one has the guts to stand up to her. 

Pelosi has already proven herself to the public to be an avid psychopathic liar. This latest revelation is repugnant to any sense of democratic values. The allegation needs to be promptly investigated and, if found to be true, she needs to be removed from her post immediately and from her elected office in November. It is no defense that these things have happened in the Senate as well, and in both Houses over a period of time. It is not the proper or fit way to conduct the business of our nation. 

There’s Charles Rangel, in a sea of ethics violations and past tax abuses and Nancy Pelosi is trying to rescue him. Once again, we hear that if Charlie should be removed, practically everyone in Congress should be removed, all of which goes to show that Pelosi’s House of Representatives is corrupt. 

It is indeed our fault that we have allowed these things to happen, and we will certainly be to blame unless we put a stop to it now. 

Nancy Pelosi needs to be investigated, charged and removed.

HEALTH CARE: ENOUGH ALREADY!

 We have asked our Congress and our President repeatedly to address themselves to the multitude of pressing issues facing our country today, such as unemployment, the national debt, terrorism, the Middle East, Iran, North Korea, ethics, corruption, taxes..... 

You have not done so.  For over a year, you have been focused, to the ultimate exclusion of proactive attention to the above issues, on a Health Care Plan that is against the will of the American people.  You have adamantly and steadfastly refused to do your required duties for the country. 

Enough is enough.

Your failures to exert leadership appropriate to the needs of the country stand as convincing evidence that you are willing to assume full blame and responsibility for the issues you refuse to face.  

You should be ashamed of yourselves for your selfish weaknesses and failures. 

Get out!  

Do America a favor.  At least have the guts to stand away and let the rest of the country deal with these issues before it is too late.  Do NOT wait until November. 

GET OUT NOW! 

CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE TACKLES BUDGET CRISIS: A Lesson To Be Learned

The California State Legislature is taking a fresh and rather unique approach to solving the state’s budget crisis. Faced with impending budget cuts and angry special interest groups, the Assembly decided it has had enough. On Thursday, February 25th, the Assembly decided to fight back by passing…. a no cussing law.


That’s right, the Assembly approved a ceremonial resolution turning the first week of March into "Cuss Free Week." And the State Senate has vowed to also pass the legislation.


And we pay these guys to run our government? Does every government official turn into an ignoramus after being elected?

(Stupid bastards, anyway.....)

THE REAL SHOWDOWN AT THE REAL OK CORRAL

Tomorrow, all eyes will be on the Blair House and President Obama’s apparent sham theatrics regarding passage of the Health Care Bill. I’m not going to dwell on it; what happens, happens. It does disgust me that the Administration has made the health care plan the focal point of all of its energy for over a year, while millions of Americans have been out of work and losing their homes, and that Obama seems hell-bent on getting the damned bill passed even if 100% of Americans should be against it.

But, the real showdown is not the battle between Obama’s selfish grab for power and the will of the American people. The real action involves a three-way hoedown with the United States, Israel and Iran. And right now, the chief dancer on the floor with all of the cards seems to be Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
During this year of Health Care battles of will, things in Iran have progressed from, “We’re building a nuclear energy program,” to “We do have two nuclear facilities and we are enriching uranium beyond 20% and we do have missiles and we‘re not talking about our warheads…yet and, if you try to do anything about it, you’ll regret it.” On our side of the dance floor, we’ve progressed from, “Straighten out your act or you’re going to face sanctions,” to “Straighten out your act or you’re going to face sanctions.” As for Israel, they’ve been given the finger by Iran and they’ve been fluffed off by our President, and they seem more than ready and willing to launch a preemptive strike on Iran; nevertheless, the rumor is that Obama told them they’d better not fly over Iraqi air space to do it, or they might get shot down.

So here we are with a major international crisis on our hands and we’re still holed up in back rooms trying to threaten, barter and buy enough votes to get the health care plan passed?

The dance orchestra is playing rotten music and I think it’s way past time for the clowns to get out of the tent.

ATTENTION WASHINGTON! TAKE YOUR DAMNED HEALTH CARE PLAN

And shove it.  We are sick and tired of your lies, your tricks, your misinformation, your disinformation and your manipulations.  We don't want 3,000 pages of your outrageous bull.  We don't want to pay for someone else's abortion.  We don't want attorneys to keep getting rich at our expense.  We don't want escalating prescriptions costs.  We don't want higher taxes.  We don't want to pay for health care for your illegal alien friends.  We don't want elderly people taking it in the shorts. 

And we don't want any government, especially "your" government, telling us what we have to spend our hard-earned money on.  You have no right to do these things to us and we will not tolerate your form of terrorism, either. 

WASHINGTON: THE LOONY BIN

Mindless idiots are in control of our government. That’s right: we’ve allowed a bunch of lunatics to take charge of our national security, our economy, our freedoms and our destinies. The proof of the pudding is that when Senator Evan Bayh, one of the few half-sane people left on The Hill, announced that he’s had enough with the funny farm, all of the inmates started running around like headless chickens and calling him the bad guy.

There Obama and his flock of mindless sheep stand, surrounded by bad news. Iran relentlessly rattles its nuclear sabres, the economy continues on the precipice of perilous calamity, millions of jobless are suffering through their 10th or 11th month of joblessness, commercial and housing foreclosures are about to shove the mortgage holders and banks back into the abyss… and Obama’s henchmen are gathered behind closed doors with Congressional leaders, scheming on how to get the damned health care plan passed. Every time an angry America shouts “No more health care, get us some jobs!” Washington’s collective eyes glaze over and their brains go on vacation.

Our leaders have either taken total leave of their senses, or they are very deeply buried in total denial. The nation is deeply in debt and we are going to have to spend billions more dollars to install rubber padding in the halls of Congress. Any day now, I expect Obama to announce that it’s time for the nation to quit driving gas guzzlers and to start driving Toyotas. Maybe, if we can get Michelle to teach basket weaving to the asylum’s inhabitants, we can recoup some of our money?

We, the people, imagine that we have a very real fear: What if these worse than senseless beings get run out of Washington and decide to come back and live among us? Will our children and farm animals be safe? Ah, but fear not: they will all become lobbyists and stay in the “Land of the Odd Ones” forever and ever.  The Messiah didn't say that; I did. 

The members of the fourth estate, ever the ones to conceal from us what we should know and to trumpet the ridiculous claims of the so-called pundits, would have us all believe that things are good and well in Washington. They seemingly buy in to the theory that the latest events in Washington are Republican vs. Democrat partisanship. They don’t seem to understand that we, the Astroturf of America, have come to realize that all Washington politicians are the same: regardless of political affiliation, they are corrupt, they are un-American, they are traitors to the ideals they espoused when we elected them, and we want them all out. 

Thanks to our bumbling, self-centered simpletons who have occupied the seats of power in Washington for far too many decades, we have become the laughing stock of the world. We are no longer the strong, fearless proponents of freedom and justice for all, we are the pitiful weak. That is why the tin-horned dictators of the world can get away with what they are getting away with in Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, Somalia….. That is why our American dollar is sinking in value and the pallor of eternal national debt looms on our doorsteps as the call of death to what once was a great country.

Enough is enough. We refuse to be blamed for the tragedy that is unfolding before our eyes any longer. We’re going to do something about this nonsense. We've already begun. 

BIDEN TIPS ADMINISTRATION NAIVETE'

SPECIAL POST

Vice Prez Joe Biden, amidst snipes at Dick Cheney, said over the weekend that he "seriously doubts" that there will ever be another terrorist attempt against the United States such as the one of 9/11.  Obviously, this is the Administration position and they are playing us as  being total fools.  I regret that they are not up for reelection in 2010.  Maybe they should take their brains out and play with them for a little while.....

WHY OBAMA WON’T FINISH HIS FIRST TERM

I think that Obama is so self-absorbed that he has cut off all ties with reality. He fails to recognize that, when everyone else in the country disagrees with him, he’s wrong. He thinks that he didn’t deliver the message right, or that we didn’t hear it right, or that the process didn’t work right. Therefore, in his mind, all of us are wrong and he’s right.

That’s dangerous thinking. Psychopaths think that way. But, I’ll stop short of calling him a psychopath because I don’t want Jimmy Carter to call me a racist. 

Obama tried to play nice yesterday at his impromptu press conference, but he just couldn’t resist putting on the muscle. He said in one breath that he wanted to work more closely with Congress, but then went on to say that he wants his nominees confirmed or he’ll make appointments during the Congressional recess. He just can’t resist putting on the muscle and acting like a two-bit street hood from Chicago. Sometimes, he makes Darth Vader look like a choir boy.

He pretended to reach across the aisle on health care, but did not hesitate to add that he will NOT go back and start with a new bill and he will NOT wait another year. You and I would look at it and say Congress has made too many mistakes by trying to make a bad bill look good; just start over. But, he looks at us as if we are the enemy because we dare to question his intelligence. After all, he’s the President. 

When he hears that the whole country thinks his health care plan sucks, he retorts that“The public has soured on the process…” but not the result? Bullshit. We’re angry with both the process and the results. I guess, in his eyes, that means we are to blame?

To be fair about it, he said that the country which develops good, clean energy will end up leading the global economy and I agree with him on that. That does not, however, mean that I subscribe to his Cap & Trade, but I’m sure he will hear it that way. 

One of these days, Barack Hussein Obama is going to have his veils of secrecy collapse. His real psyche well be bared to the entire world and he will probably suffer a nervous breakdown when faced with the ultimate reality that he is only the President and not a deity. I don’t think he is strong enough to endure such revelations of truth and will probably have a nervous breakdown and spend the rest of his life in a mental institution. 

That’s why I don’t believe he will finish his first term. I don’t mean any disrespect, but he’s obviously not “all there.” 

BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA: I Told You So, Yes I Did

SPECIAL POST

Howard Galganov
Montreal, Quebec, Canada


When Obama won the presidency with the help of the leftist media, Hollywood and entertainment liberals, ethnic socialists (ACORN), stupid non-business professionals and Bush haters, I wrote: It won't take six months until the people figure this guy out and realize how horrible a mistake they've made. And when they come to that realization, the damage to the United States of America will be so great it will take a generation or more to repair - IF EVER.

The IDIOTS who not only voted for the messiah, but also worked hard to promote his lordship, are now left holding the bag.

Here are two things they will NEVER do: they will NEVER admit to making a blunder out of all proportion by electing a snake-oil salesman with no positive social history or management experience of any kind. They will NEVER take responsibility for the curse they've imposed upon the immediate and long-term future of their country.

In essence, the people responsible for putting this horror show in power are themselves responsible for every cataclysmic decision he makes and the consequences thereof.

In just six months, the messiah's polls are showing the following: on Healthcare Reform, he's going under for the third time with polling well under 50 percent, even within his own party. Even though he might be able to muscle a Healthcare Reform Bill by using Chicago bully tactics against his fellow Democrats, it will just make things worse.


On Cap and Trade (Cap and Tax), the fat lady is already singing. On the Stimulus Package (Tax and Spend), his popularity is in free fall. On the TARP package he took and ran with from President Bush, it's all but Good-Night Irene. On the closing of GITMO and "his" war on what he no longer wants called the War On Terrorism, he's standing in quicksand with his head just about to go under. On a comparison between himself and George W. Bush at the same six months into their respective first term presidencies, Bush is ahead of him in the polls. On a comparison between "he who walks on water" and the 12 preceding Presidents between WW II and now, Obama ranks 10th. On a poll just conducted, that asks who would you vote for today between Obama and Mitt Romney, it's a dead heat. Between Obama and Palin, Obama's only ahead by 8 points and she hasn't even begun to campaign!
It seems to me that Obama wants to be everywhere he shouldn't be. He's personally invested in totally insulting America 's only real Middle Eastern ally ( Israel ) in favor of Palestinian despots and murderers. He's traveling the world apologizing for the USA while lecturing others on how to do it right, when in fact and truth he has no experience at doing anything other than getting elected.

He went to the moslem world in Egypt to declare that America "is not a Christian Nation" while he heaped praises on Islam, where he compared the "plight" of the Palestinians to the Holocaust.

The Russians think he's a putz. The French think he's rude. The Germans want him to stop spending. The Indians want him to get his nose out of their environmental business. The North Koreans think he's a joke. The Iranians won't acknowledge his calls. And the British can't even come up with a comprehensive opinion of him. As for the Chinese, he's too frightened to even glance their way. (After all, China now owns a large portion of the United States .)

Maybe if America 's first emperor would stay home more, travel less, and work a little bit instead of being on television just about everyday (or forget about his Wednesday date nights with his amazon wife) or stop running to "papered" Town Hall Meetings, perhaps he would have a little bit of time to do the work of the nation.

In all fairness, it wasn't hard to be right in my prediction concerning Obama's presidency, even in its first six months, so I'm going to make yet another prediction: OBAMA WILL PROBABLY NOT FINISH HIS 4-YEAR TERM, at least not in a conventional way.

He is such a political horror show, and so detrimental to the USA and his own Democratic Party, that the Democrats themselves will either force him to resign or figure out a way to have him thrown out. Who knows, maybe he really isn't a born US Citizen and that's a way the Democrats will be able to get rid of him.

Or, more likely than not, the Democrats will make Obama THEIR OWN LAME DUCK PRESIDENT. 
I don't believe the Democrats have nearly as much love for their country as they do for their own political fortunes. And with Obama, their fortunes are rapidly becoming toast.

The Democrats can keep on blaming Bush for everything, but that game's already begun to wear real thin.  Their mantra was "WE DON'T WANT 4 MORE YEARS," which the STUPID people bought, since McCain was nothing at all like George W. Bush. The new mantra will soon become: "WE DON'T WANT 6 MORE MONTHS."

Obviously written some time last fall, but very apropos today.  

NEVADA MINE SUFFERS FROM "OBAMA COMPLEX"

It’s very obvious to any observer that the President does not like it when anyone challenges his position or knowledge on anything; he is the consummate authoritarian. When he says his programs saved 2,000,000 jobs last year, you can take that to the bank. (The bank isn’t going to give you anything for it, but you can take it there.) If you ask him to prove it, he points to his ARA website. If you point out that his website claims jobs saved or produced in Congressional Districts that don’t exist, he comes back with a glower and “Figures don’t really mean anything, anyway.” 

In Nevada, in the nice, small rural farming town of Yerington, there is an old open-pit copper mine. For years, now, the Yerington Paiute Tribe has been concerned about the probability that chemical residues and heavy metals from the mine have been contaminating parts of the Mason Valley, particularly to the North of the site where the reservation is. To make a long story short, there have been several parties involved with ownership responsibilities at the mine over the years, and BPARCO is currently the principal party on the hook for mitigating any environmental problems. 

From 2002 to 2006, the tribe and a rapidly growing number of other concerned citizens put the heat on the EPA, State of Nevada, and BPARCO to determine the full extent and nature of contamination on the site. In 2005, after months of stonewalling, facts proved that there were dangerous amounts of uranium at the facility, some of which had been enriched and dumped in an evaporation pond. At the same time, increasing levels of uranium were being detected in domestic wells to the north of the site. BPARCO stonewalled and insisted that the uranium in the water was not coming from the mine site.
So, EPA was left with no choice but to have test wells drilled and monitored while wary residents waited and worried. Four years later, results of the testing seem to confirm that uranium from the mine site has reached groundwater. Once again, BPARCO is stonewalling, saying there is no evidence that the uranium in domestic wells to the north of the site is the same uranium in the groundwater by the mine. 

So, the problems at the Yerington Mine, problems that are very likely adversely affecting the health of citizens living to the north of the mine, get spinned and diverted much in the same way that Obama spins and diverts… like Muhammad Ali in the ring. And, the problems that Obama spins and diverts are problems that are affecting Americans all over the country. For more information on the Yerington Anaconda Mine debacle, go to www.yamsite.info

Obama plays Americans like dummies. “We need to get people to work. I saved 2,000,000 million jobs last year.” “I agree that we can’t continue to have these runaway budget deficits. I need an extra $1.5 trillion next year.” BPARCO and some of the Yerington and Lyon County leaders have been “Progressives” just like Obama, and playing the residents of Mason Valley as being dummies. The story has progressed, from early 2003 to now, as follows: “There is no uranium on the mine site. The uranium on the mine site is naturally occurring and of no risk. The elevated levels of uranium on the mine site are isolated and pose no hazard to the general public. There is no uranium in the groundwater. The uranium in the groundwater is naturally occurring and not connected to the mine. The uranium that has gotten into the groundwater below and immediately to the north of the mine site is not connected to the uranium that is in the groundwater by houses and farms to the north of the site; that uranium is naturally occurring.” Seven years have gone by while residents have been drinking water from their wells. Maybe they should hold KSM’s terrorist trial in the evaporation pond where they dumped the yellowcake? 

Transparency? You know about those secret meetings going on in the back rooms of the Capitol, the discussions that were supposed to be broadcast on C-Span as Obama promised would happen? There is a lot of back room discussion about the mine site in Yerington, Nevada.
See all of the similarities? Well, here’s another one to roll around in your inquisitive mind. Guess who has spent a helluva lot of time in Washington, D.C. and spent a helluva lot of time in Yerington in his early days, and who was really steaming with energy on trying to get the mine site cleaned up six years ago when he was running for reelection? Harry Reid. 

Sorry to disappoint all of the players in this posting but, we’re not really as dumb as they make us out to be, are we? And, we’re not to blame for this kind of deceit and disservice to America and Yerington either, are we?

BIG BUSINESS BIMBOS: Why WE Are To Blame

For the past year, we’ve been listening to Obama and his henchmen make it painfully clear that they do not like big banks or big business. As Americans who are watching some of the tricks that big banks and big business are pulling, we’re not particularly pleased about many of the things that they are doing these days, either. But, our Constitutional form of government has inherent provisions which, if followed, would keep the noses of big government out of it. 

So, what do we do? 

Another dilemma facing us is the use of corporate profits to buy Congressional influence and votes by way of campaign contributions. Any lawyer in Congress knows that you cannot enact a law preventing business corporations from making campaign contributions because, that violates the 1st Amendment. 

Our forefathers were not dummies such as Obama, Pelosi and Reid would have us believe. They knew that these situations could, and probably would, arise. But, by keeping the power of the government in the hands of the people, they provided the avenues for dealing with these issues. It is therefore we, the people, who have fumbled the ball. 

Big business gets into trouble; Obama and his henchmen see a way to take over big business for themselves to run. That’s called “nationalization.” They dig into our pocketbooks and provide the banks and businesses money to stay afloat, in return for which the government gets stock and seats on boards of directors. Now, we all know that’s wrong, but what do we do about it? 

Here we are, talking about resolving our Congressional issues of graft, corruption and elitism, and we instinctively know that the answer is to vote the bums out of office. It is fair to say that they will quickly get the message in Washington and begin to police themselves. 

So, why are “we, the people” still doing business, buying goods and services from the likes of AIG and Bank of America? Why do we continue to buy Omaha steaks from Nebraska when Nelson was willing to sell the rest of the country down the drain by voting for the Health Care Bill, in order to get an everlasting gift from Harry Reid and the rest of the “Good Old Boys?” 

We, the American voters and consumers, have within our hands the abilities to resolve these issues. If we quit using Bank of America credit cards and loan services, and we make it abundantly clear that we are ticked off with the campaign contributions and with their employee bonuses and related trickeries while we are financing their butts, their stockholders and Board of Directors will soon see plummeting profits and they will mend their ways. If Obama and Congress try to intervene by lending them more of our money, we vote those guys out of office. 

The way things are going in this country, we need to pay attention to who is doing what to us and we need to react with our votes and our pocket books. Quit buying insurance from AIG. Find out who their subsidiaries are, and quit doing business with them. Look up who made the big donations to Reid, Pelosi and Obama and quit doing business with them. Send these guys a postcard… “I hereby quit doing business with you and your subsidiaries because of your irresponsible management team that gave $$$$ to so and so’s campaign last year.” (Be sure to sell your stock in the company before you do this.)

“Congressman, I’m voting against you in the next election because you accepted $$$ in campaign contributions from ABC Corporation, and then you voted for the Health Care Plan that would send extra profits to ABC.” 

We have the power. It’s time to start using it, or we will continue to be in the blame.

NAILED IT!

SPECIAL POST

Looking at my predictions of yesterday, I'd say that I pretty much nailed it. 


Now that people have been out of work for over a year and are losing their homes... By the way, he just had to lament about more and more people losing their health care benefits.  People are losing their health care benefits because HE is losing their jobs for them.  

So, more than a year down the road far too many Americans out of work, Obama says we need to create jobs.  Now, if it finally dawned on him the day after Massachusetts that the country wants jobs, why did he wait until the day after his State of the Union to start to work on jobs?  Why didn't he start last Wednesday?

In discussing the nation's ills, he again nailed Bush, the Republicans, and the Supreme Court.  The job of the Supreme Court is to interpret the Constitution.  They are very rarely in the job of making law...so rare that I'm not going to dwell on it here.  But, there he was in all of his defiant arrogance, blaming the Supreme Court because he didn't like the decision.  But, they were right.  


Now, if you want to stop the floodgates for special interests, I 100% agree with that, but it has to be done in a Constitutional way.  Then again, he believes the Constitution is too much of a hindrance on him, anyway. 


One year down the road from his inauguration, he is embroiled in a bitter self-awareness that his method of change is not wanted... but jobs are.  What he is saying, then, is that he would just as soon have his health care plan and 50% unemployment and no Constitution.  

And, to underscore his contempt for those of us who want to see jobs and who disagree with his total lack of responsible leadership, he turned his back on the jobs problem by telling his staff and Congress to start working on the problem and he.... got on his plane and jetted off to Tampa.   

(What an asshole!)  

STATE OF THE UNION; MORE ABOUT BARRY?

Tonight’s State of the Union speech by President Obama is probably not going to be listened to by as many Americans as have tuned in to other Presidential State of the Union addresses. Why not? Because Americans are getting more and more turned off about the President’s condescending tones, his excuses, his stretches of the truth and his downright, outright lies. 

The Massachusetts Senate race last week may have meant a lot of different things to a lot of people, but the plain simple truth of the situation is that Brown and Coakley were running neck and neck until Obama showed up to stump for Coakley. The polling numbers then proceeded to go beserk in Brown’s favor. 

Since that hysterical moment, Obama has reportedly been in a funk, stewing over his health care plan, worried about his debts to his far left liberal friends, blaming Fox News, and vowing to get his way come hell or high water. And, in a wild attempt to regain control of the situation, Obama is slated to announce a “budget freeze” that is about as worthless and useless as a two-bit... politician. 

Americans don’t want to hear another word of political B.S.

Obama is likely to lash out at the Republicans for not being cooperative. Not that I’m enamored with the Republicans, but I don’t recall that they have been given a single opportunity to participate in any political discussions about the future of the country. In fact, Obama, Pelosi and Reid made it abundantly and arrogantly clear that they are in control and there is not one damned thing the Republicans, or even the people for that matter, can do about it. 

Now that the people have managed to do something even the Republicans could not… leveling the playing field… they have been staring at themselves in the mirror in utter and pure denial. “My God, how could those ingrates DO this to us?”

And, Barry is likely to tell the world how much better off it is with him at the helm than it was under Bush. Well, we all know that Bush was by no measure a “peach,” but Obama makes him look like a prince in comparison. So, Obama will blame his problems on Bush, the Republicans, Fox, and you and me. Oh, we might hear those three favorite words of his, “I’m sorry, but…” And then, he’s going to tell us how he, the omnipotent one, is going to fix things for us. 

Americans don’t want to hear another word of political B.S.

What Americans do want, Obama, Pelosi and Reid are not willing to provide. We want responsible government. We want people back to work. We want real solutions for the housing foreclosures. We want the unused TARP money back in the Treasury like they promised. But, they are foaming at their mouths, bound and determined to get a health care plan passed. They’re still focused on that. 

We want an end to political payoffs and corruption in Washington. Obviously, they are completely stonewalling that idea, so we know that we have to perform drastic surgery and remove every damned member of Congress that we can. So, now that we have our goals and objectives clear to us, why do we need to listen to Obama squirming and twisting in the wind? 

We’re not to blame for this mess, and we don’t need to listen to some punk kid from Hawaii or wherever he’s from tell us that we are. It’s just that simple.

PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS ARE TO BLAME

For months now, the Obama-Pelosi-Reid machine has been riding rough-shod over the whole country, ignoring the Tea Parties, blaming Bush and the Republicans, talking down in condescending ways, and arrogantly ignoring the voices of the people. They have pulled every dirty political trick in the book. They have threatened, cajoled and bribed their associates in Congress and the Administration in order to get their ways. They have manipulated the media and threatened to close down media outlets that will not toe the line.


Last night, in the heart of Liberal Land, the people signaled their intent to do something about it. 

The people voted a conservative Republican into a seat held by the Kennedy family for 50 years. In the aftermath, pundits have been quick to determine that Democrats, Independents and Republicans alike are ticked off about the Health Care agenda and its associated political gimmickry, as well as unemployment, the economy and the national debt. 


This morning, the White House fired back by saying that the President has no intention of changing anything; he intends to get his health care plan passed and, in essence, he doesn’t give a damn what you or I think, how we vote or what we do to try and stop him. 

HIS WILL MUST BE DONE, OR ELSE!

Massachusetts has set the example. They have loudly stated the national disenchantment with the “machine.” It is up to the rest of the nation to put a firm stop to this ignorant, arrogant attempted takeover of our country, our government and our freedoms. These banditos riding around on their black horses, who take shots at their enemies and who practice overt oppression of the people must be stopped. 

Thanks to Massachusetts, the stage has now been set to do just that. Are you ready for this?

HEALTH CARE: WEEKEND UPDATE

SPECIAL POST

Many Democrats have headed to Massachusetts to campaign for Coakley for the Senate seat being voted on Tuesday.  Barney Frank has his bowels in an uproar, lamenting that a Brown win would mean the Health Care Bill will go down in flames, while fellow Democrats have been sourly stewing that democracy might work.  For the first time in decades, there is a realistic possibility that the public will might win! 
Over in the White House, aids are busily working to insert the President's requirements laid out last week during marathon meetings, into the Bill.  The new Bill has a temporary setback; it has yet to go to the Congressional Budget Office for a review and cost analysis, but that could happen at any hour.  As soon as the CBO puts a price tag on it, it goes back to the House where it will undoubtedly be voted on in short order. 

Over at the Senate, the illustrious Ben Nelson from Nebraska who managed to glom onto an eternal Medicaid tax break for his state in return for his crucial December 24th vote in the Senate, has finally and reluctantly caved in to growing pressure from his constituents and the attorneys general of 15 states who are threatening to take Congress to Court; Nelson has asked that his deal be dropped from the Bill.  

Keep those telephone calls, faxes and emails going.  There is, for the very first time in this process, genuine concern in the halls of Congress and in the White House that passage may evoke massive public wrath.  

They're right. 

NOW IS THE TIME FOR ALL GOOD AMERICANS TO MAKE THEIR VOICES HEARD

SPECIAL POST

This weekend is shaping up to be pivotal in the Health Care debacle.  Word is leaking out about a deal struck with the unions that will give the rest of us higher premiums and taxes and less benefits.  

Don’t be embarrassed to stand up for your country. Do it, do it now, and do it with pride.

HEALTH CARE: WHY WE MUST STOP THE CONGRESSIONAL END-RUN

Congress is out of control. Congress no longer reports to the American people; the American people report to, and are subjects of, Congress. Congress only reports to the President. 

We are to blame for allowing this “fundamental transformation” in our government to take place. President Obama told us he was going to do just that and we elected him to office. Now, it has become his mandate, a behest from the voters to make the “transformation” complete. Congress shows every sign of wanting to follow this “mandate” right over the cliffs of American Democracy. 

This is how we got to the point that the Senate had the audacity to ignore the polls and the will of the people to pass their version of the Health Care plan on Christmas Eve. This is why, when all of the dirt came out about the unethical tricks they played with Nebraska, Louisiana and Michigan in order to get the bill passed, they justified it by saying “That’s how the system works in Washington.” Most of those guys know in their hearts that what they are doing is wrong, but they are doing it anyway, because they have to support Obama’s “mandate.” 

Ben Nelson knew it. Had we been flies on the wall in the smoke-filled back rooms of the Senate when Reid was holed up with Rahm Emanuel and hammering the Senate version out, we probably would have heard this speech: “Listen, Benny, this is the way it’s going to work. You are going to vote ‘yes’ on the passage of this bill, and here’s why. No one in Nebraska will ever have to pay a Medicaid bill again…ever. You will get an extra $20 million in your campaign coffers and the President himself will make repeated personal visits to your state to help you in your reelection when the time comes. If you should happen, by any remote chance, to vote ‘no,’ then we are going to shit on Nebraska like you have never seen shit fly before. We’ll close Offutt AFB, we’ll cut federal funding, we’ll pay an opponent to run against you, and we’ll make sure that the whole world knows what an asshole Ben Nelson is. You’ll see I.R.S. audits like you’ve never imagined. You, Senator, would not want to see the grief we can lay on you.” In my mind, I’m sure that’s the way it came down, or something very close to it. 

Almost sounds like the Chicago Mob, doesn’t it? 

Obama has laid out all of his political capital to get the health care bill passed. He knows that if this bill fails, he doesn’t stand a chance of getting any of the rest of his agenda passed, either. In his mind, if it gets passed and he can sign it, he not only can run rough-shod over the entire country regarding every one of his other agenda items, but over our Constitution as well. As he has already said to those of us who would stop him, “Shut up and get out of the way.” This is why the secret hearings going on with Reid, Pelosi, Emanuel and the “boys,” will never see the light of a C-SPAN Television broadcast. 

When it eventually makes its way out of that back room, the chances of us having 72 hours to pour over it on the Internet are slim and none, zero, zilch. This thing is going to hit the floor of the House, probably get passed at 2:00 AM on a Saturday morning, land in the Senate and get passed at 2:00 AM on Sunday morning, all without anyone reading it. This has been their track record so far; you know it and I know it. 
Monday morning, the President will invite everyone over to the Oval Office for a signing ceremony and he’ll pat everyone on the back and he’ll grandstand about their success in “this historic moment for the American people,” and he’ll move right on to “Cap and Trade.” 

Are we going to allow this to happen? 

We all know in our hearts that this is a moment in history when our American Democracy will either survive, or it will die forever. If we want it to survive, and I assume you do or you would not be reading this, then we have to make it plain and clear that passage of this Bill, before we Americans have a chance to read it on the Internet and to digest it, discuss it, and voice our opinions, there will be holy hell to pay. This is not the time to shrug our shoulders and sit on the couch hoping God will intervene. We have to do something. 

Yes, we need health care reform.  Quality of care is excellent, but the cost is escalating.  Although they promised us that this new bill would brings costs under control, there is nothing in it to control malpractice awards, prescription costs, or rising insurance premiums.  Not only must we prevent this bill from passing, but we must then turn around and push for the legislation that will actually solve the problem without "transforming our country." 


Call, write, FAX, email your Congressional delegates, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and President Obama. Send copies to your local newspapers. Don’t mince words. Don’t wait until tomorrow. If we fail on this mission, we will have no one but ourselves to blame for the resulting travesty. 

Don’t be embarrassed to stand up for your country. Do it, do it now, and do it with pride.

WHY WE ARE TO BLAME

The rage that coursed through the bloodstreams of Americans when they discovered that Nebraska would never have to pay another Medicaid bill, in return for which we “other Americans” would be paying Nebraska’s Medicaid bills and getting a hike in our taxes and health care premiums as a result of Ben Nelson’s vote for the Senate Health Care Plan, points out how little we do know about “how the system works.” The excuse offered by Reid and others for this unethical maneuver was “that’s how the system works,” or “that’s how we do things in Washington.“ How’s that for getting in your face? 

Well, let me say this about that: Just because that’s the way you do things does not make it morally, ethically, or even legally right. Using that saying as the reason for doing things the way you do them is a copout. YOU, Senator and Congressman, are in charge of “the system,” the way things are done. And, now that the door has opened on “how the system works,” it has shed light on the fact that the way you do things in Washington is fundamentally unethical and unfair. 

For example, you are playing smoke and mirrors with the American public and the costs of the Health Care Plan. You saddle the states with the Medicaid costs, and you make back room deals to send the states more money in state aid later in response to their resulting budget crisis, when you don’t have to explain to anyone that your Medicaid decisions added to their budget crisis. Then you smile demurely at us and tell us that you have managed to cut the costs of your Health Care Plan. Now, go away, little boy. 

We Americans are to blame for allowing you to be reelected over and over again. And, don’t bother to stand there pointing your fingers to the other party, either; you all do it and have been doing it to we, the people, for decades. You have been double-dealing and dirty-dealing us for far too long. 

Make no mistake about it: We, the people, are not going to sit docilely on our couches and allow you to do these things to us any longer. When we tell you loud and clear that we don’t want this or that, we are not handing you a license to go and disguise it as something else and put it back into the hopper, either. Quit playing with your smoke and mirrors and start playing straight, and if you can’t play it straight, go get a job on a used car lot where you can lie and stretch the truth all you want. 

Now, you are going to get your backs up Mr. Reid, Mrs. Pelosi, Mr. Nelson, Mr. Dodd, Mr. Lieberman and the rest of the gang….and you are going to duck the issue by lashing out and accusing me of being angry, politically incorrect, a right-wing extremist, misinformed and irrelevant. 

You want me to be polite? Okay, I’ll be polite:  Get out now, while the getting is good. Don’t let the doors hit you in your asses on the way out. This time, you have no one to blame, but yourselves, because we are not going to take it any longer.

JIHADIST ROCKET LAUNCHER FOUND IN HOUSTON APARTMENT

National security cover-up?  You haven't heard about this in the news...


http://patriotupdate.com/stories/read/2314/Rocket-Launcher-Found-In-Apartment

Just what is going on in this country, anyway? 

NATIONAL SECURITY LATEST CASUALTY OF OBAMA ADMINISTRATION

Two events occurred Christmas that reveal the sad state of airline security: (1) A Nigerian national on a Northwest Airlines flight from Amsterdam to Detroit fired off an incendiary device that, had it worked as intended, would have killed nearly 300 passengers and crew on board plus an unknown number on the ground, and (2) A Lufthansa flight from Frankfurt to Detroit was diverted to Iceland where it was searched for suspicious baggage; it was later discovered that the baggage was okay, but that the owner had not boarded the plane in Frankfurt.

Violations of security protocol occurred in both events; it was by the Grace of God that no terrorist act succeeded.

In the first case, the Nigerian purchased his ticket with cash; the ticket was a one-way ticket. Both of these actions were sufficient reason for agents to pull the passenger aside and give him a thorough going over, which would have resulted in his bomb packet being discovered between his legs. I have had that done to me in an instance where I had to purchase a one-way ticket on short notice due to a funeral; I flew from Spokane to Albuquerque to Reno, and I was thoroughly screened several times along the way. Adding insult to injury, the Nigerian’s father, a well-known Nigerian bank executive, had warned officials that his son had turned to radical Islam. Evidently, no one cared enough to communicate that information to TSA. Homeland Security Director Janet Napolitano basically shrugged the incident off, saying: “The system worked.” What outright and blatant audacity.

In the second case, security protocol requires that the flight cannot take off if a passenger has checked baggage on board and is not on the flight himself. When the passenger failed to board in Frankfurt, his luggage should have been removed prior to takeoff. To my knowledge, Janet Napolitano didn’t even comment on this incident; maybe she realized that the “system” was NOT working, so she shucked and ducked. That seems to be the modus operandi for everyone in the Administration.

Both of these incidents underscore an ominous fact: Security lapses are not receiving the attention they should be, thereby leaving us at the mercy of the “Grace of God” in the future.

We must now ask ourselves in what other areas of management Janet Napolitano has proven herself to be incapable of administering. What about border security? She has proven several times that her knowledge of border laws is not very extensive. She blocked further federal funding for Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s immigration enforcement unit.

She is also the one, if you remember correctly, who said that returning veterans pose a risk of right-wing extremism. In fact, she identifies you and I as being right wing extremists if:

• You believe in the 2nd Amendment
• You believe in the right to life
• You believe in the right to free speech
• You are a veteran who honorably served your country
• You believe in the right to peaceably assemble
• You desire that your government not waste YOUR money
• You believe you pay enough taxes already
• You are a returning member of the military who risked your life for your country
• You desire the laws of our land be ENFORCED and our BORDERS SECURED!
• You are of the Jewish or Christian faith and believe the government should protect against radical Islamic fundamentalists who desire to kill you and other Americans
• You believe those who violate the law should NOT be rewarded with YOUR tax dollars

Back in June, James Von Brunn walked into the National Holocaust Museum and opened fire with a difficult- to-conceal 22-caliber rifle and killed a guard. He was a convicted felon, barred by the law from owning or possessing a gun. He had spent six years in jail for the attempted kidnapping of Paul Volcker of the Federal Reserve Board. He was an acknowledged hater of Jews and Negroes, a "radical extremist" who, according to Janet Napolitano, should have been high on the watch list. But, for some inexplicable reason, he wasn’t.

Like Tim Geithner, she needs to be replaced. Obama’s collection of monkeys, idiots, fascists, and Marxists all needs to be replaced.

Yes, I am a right wing extremist. I firmly am against the likes of Marx, Lenin, Chavez, Stalin and Bill Ayers. And, I will continue to be vocal in my opinions, because I am an American and I have the right to be vocal. You can call me a “Tea Party lunatic,” a politically incorrect, angry man…whatever you want, I don’t care.

Enough is enough.

CONGRESS MUST BE REPLACED

If I lived in Nebraska, I’d be ashamed to call myself an American after what Ben Nelson did to us. If we are smart, we’ll quit buying Nebraska corn and beef. In fact, all of the states that benefited from all of those dirty-dealing back room deals should be dropped from the United States. Let them be third-world or European nations; maybe Kenya will take them in.

The Senate Democrats are the epitome of mean, dirty political tricks and corruption, total disregard for their constituencies, and dishonor of the content and spirit of the Constitution of the United States. That having been said, I don’t subscribe to the theory that the Republicans are any better. Somehow, those in Washington have totally strayed from the conduct of their duties as envisioned by our founders and we have allowed them to get away with it. See what you get when you sit on your butt and don’t get involved in national politics?

How do you like these apples? The word is that the current Senate Bill has a provision in it that no future Congress can revoke, alter or change it. Isn't that flatly illegal and fascist?

Their double-dealing ways have got to be put to an end. Every Member of Congress, regardless of political party, needs to be turned out on the streets. They have lied to us, manipulated the facts, stonewalled the questions, called us names, told us one thing while doing another, taken bribes and political payoffs… In short, they have crapped on our dinner plates and they’ve not even smiled when they did it to us.

They have violated our Constitution and gotten away with it not only this year but, for decades.

Now, the country is on the precipice of bankruptcy and they point their fingers of blame at us, at each other, at past Presidents… everywhere except themselves. Yet, they don’t stop their spending ways.

We, the people, can give ourselves a Christmas present that will keep on giving and giving: we can promise now to get rid of them all. We can completely replace the House in the coming election and 1/3 of the Senate. In 2012 we can replace another 1/3 of the Senate and we can replace the entire House again if we have to make the message clearer. In 2014, when all of this Health Care disaster kicks in, we can finish off the last 1/3 of the Senate. I’m talking Republicans, Democrats, all of them including turncoat Senator Lieberman.

Let’s replace all Members of Congress with... AMERICANS.

WE, THE PEOPLE HEREBY HOLD THE SENATE IN CONTEMPT

You are in total and utter contempt of the will of the people. You are violating our trust. You are trashing our Constitution. You are knowingly and willingly exceeding the boundaries of your responsibilities. And you, Ben Nelson and Joe Lieberman, are truly the Benedict Arnolds of our time.

You are selling our souls, our spirits, our hopes for the future of this country for a few trinkets of wasted government spending that you can lay upon your states… Those are but fleeting moments of time in the scale of eternity, but your transactions of treason will last forever and ever.

All of you should be ashamed of calling yourselves Americans while dealing us such a horrible debt and allowing encroachments of our freedoms and liberties.

We are not just angry. We are flat pissed off, and you will have your day of reckoning, sooner than you think.

May God damn your thoughtless, selfish, ugly and wicked ways.

* * * * *

My fellow Americans, our United States Senate most sincerely wishes us a very Merry Christmas.

HELLO, WASHINGTON! Your Day Of Reckoning Is Coming

Let’s get one thing straight, Washington: We are not to blame for the shambles that our economy, our morals, our ethics and the overall state of our nation is in. The blame lies squarely in your laps. Yes, you are supposed to be working for us, so we do share in the blame, but we are now coming to our senses and we are going to hold you accountable when we stand on our feet and throng to the polls next November.

We have had enough.

For as long as I can remember, Congress, the White House and our Courts have been partners in ripping this country apart. And, yes, the stench has gotten worse over the last twenty years. As leaders of our country, you have a responsibility to hold yourselves to a higher standard as an example to us and our children; in this, you have failed miserably. Your lack of morals and ethics has permeated every level of our society. The corruption that you have welcomed into the halls of our government in Washington has oozed into Wall Street, our business board rooms, our state governments, and is now finding its way into our bedrooms. How you can have the utter audacity to point your fingers at our banks and financial institutions and to complain about their unethical behaviors when it is you who have set the standards for conduct in this country is beyond me. You won’t cap malpractice awards because the lawyers feathered your financial campaign nests? Then, why shouldn’t AIG pay out bonuses and take expensive trips on the government dime?

You are going to go after retired government and military employees to pay their past taxes while you have hired a tax cheater to be your Secretary of the Treasury? Who in the hell do you think you are, the self-designated chief hypocrites of all time?

Not only do you take bribes and payoffs and campaign contributions and who knows what else before you make your decisions on how to run our country, you turn around and use our taxpayer money to make back room deals in order to get your miserable self-serving agendas accomplished, whether we who foot the bills support them or not.
You needn’t worry about getting caught, because your hierarchy will run cover for you and, if you do get caught, your Attorney General won’t press charges and if, by some strange happenstance you do end up in Court, the Judge has already been bought and paid for….you’ll get a slap on the wrist.

We are in debt up to our eyeballs and the nation is sick to its collective stomach about it and you appear in the halls of Congress smiling and slapping each other on the back after you tack on another $250 billion to a budget? You seize hundreds of billions of our dollars for one thing and now you want to spend it on something else? When you enacted TARP, you knew at the time that not one dime of that money was ever going to get back in the treasury and you stood there on front of the nation and gave us your condescending smiles as you told us that we’d not only get the money back into the treasury, but we’d make interest on it? How can you sleep at night?

Your hateful, spiteful and mean ways, your spending days, your “screw the public” attitudes have been running rampant for so long that they have evolved into being an inbred culture of politics in Washington. This culture knows no bounds; it has affected the minds and the hearts of every Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, Independent, Liberal or Conservative in every facet of our government. You now surround yourselves with convicted criminals, tax cheats, Marxists, fascists and you do not hesitate to tell us to “Shut up and get out of the way.”

Maybe you tell yourselves that things will get better for you after you confiscate our guns and ban our religions. Then, maybe, we’ll roll over and die and you can intrude your politics of corruption into our living rooms and bedrooms and successfully grab us by our family jewels.

We do not want your lousy health care plan. Go back and write a good piece of legislation to deal with this problem. We don’t want your damned cap and trade legislation. We don’t want your damned EPA taking over our streams and rivers. We don’t want to hear some holier-than-thou remark about how we will have to limit every family to one child when you, the total misbegotten rats that you are, allow illegal immigration to our country at the expense of our economy and our jobs and have the gall to look us straight in the eye and to tell us we have to shrink our families because we have too many people here causing pollution.

We're sick and tired of your dog and pony shows and your smoke and mirrors. We don't want to hear any more of your lies, half-truths, misinformation and disinformation. Save your eloquent oratories for the bathroom and give us the straight, clear, unequivocal facts and don't hide behind 2,000 pages of pure bull, either.

We don’t want any more of ACORN’s of crime and corruption. We don’t want terrorist trials in New York City; we don't want your friends to have the opportunity to tell the world why we deserved to have them take down the World Trade Center and the Penatgon. Yes, your friends. You don’t have the guts to detain war prisoners and to try them under rules of military justice, so you must be their friends.

No one, not one person in the House of Representatives, the Senate, the White House, the Supreme Court… No one has stood up with the rest of us and agreed that enough is enough, that something has to be done, that action has to be taken to end this horrible tragedy that is going on in our country, that the time has come for us to return to the values upon which this country was founded and to return to the fundamental and Constitutionally correct way of running our government.

HEAR THIS, WASHINGTON: We have had enough! Your day of reckoning is fast approaching. We pissant Americans out in the hinterlands no longer want to share in the blame for all of this, and we want to get rid of those who are to blame. Start packing.

APPROVAL OF OMNIBUS SPENDING BILL

ENDLESS PARADE OF “SCREW THE PUBLIC”

The United States Senate yesterday refused, by a vote of 54-45, to pass an amendment to the proposed Government-run Health Care Bill that would have prevented taxpayer money from being used to fund abortions, although the House had previously passed a similar amendment and the American public overwhelmingly agrees with such a provision.

In the meantime, the Congressional Budget Office estimates that up to 10 million people could lose their employer-based insurance coverage under the Senate's health care reform bill. The nonpartisan office said the net loss would add up to about 5 million -- the anticipated loss of employer coverage on one end would be offset in part by the expectation that a new mandate would drive other employers to cover millions more workers who are not currently covered. But that estimate assumes many employers, particularly small businesses with low-wage workers, would opt to pay the fine and drop their insurance plans. The CBO estimated this would affect between 9 million and 10 million workers. (The math has gotten to be so fuzzy, but I think the plan would leave 25 million without insurance anyway, so the new total would be 35 million; with 45 million currently uninsured, this means we are going to insure 10 million people at a cost to Americans of over $1 trillion.)

Although 62% of Americans now oppose a government run health plan, the Senate and the President appear to be hell-bent on passage before Christmas. (Isn’t that a nice present for the public?) An Amendment was proposed that would prevent the extraction of $40 billion more from Medicare benefits and that was defeated. Another Amendment would have capped malpractice awards and that was defeated. In other words, the Senate is telling Americans, “We don’t care what you think.”

As if to emphasize total contempt for the American public, the Senate Majority Leader in essence accused those Americans who are trying to slow down or re-work the Health Care Plan of being supporters of slavery, and he capped that off by adamantly refusing to apologize for the disgraceful remarks that he had made.

But, the bad news does not end there. In response to leaked emails that show scientists have been misstating and falsifying statistics used to support global warming theories and the proposed Cap & Trade legislation, President Obama announced that he’s going to Copenhagen to attend a United Nations workshop. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ruled that carbon dioxide is hazardous to the environment and that they intend to initiate extensive regulations whether the public and American business like it or not.

Moony’s, the well-respected independent financial company, warned yesterday that continued mismanagement of the economy, the budget deficit and national debt may force them to lower the financial rating of the U.S. from its current AAA rating, a move that could have further disastrous impacts on our economy.

President Obama yesterday essentially admitted that his stimulus plan has not worked by suggesting a “Stimulus II” package that would add another $150 billion to the country’s debt. Once again, Obama said the U.S. has had to "spend our way out of this recession," a tactic that many are insisting is not working and cannot work. These moves have been made despite the fact that the top concerns of Americans are the national debt and jobs.

Obama’s response to Americans who have thronged to Town Hall meetings and American Tea Party demonstrations has been, “Shut up and get out of the way.”

Merry Christmas, America.

A TAXPAYER'S WARNING TO CONGRESS

If you pass legislation that in any way requires me to pay for someone's else's abortion, I will go to jail before I pay any more taxes.

If you pass legislation that takes away from my Medicare or Social Security, or raises taxes on my fixed income or raises the cost of my supplementary insurance and reduces my benefits, I will go to jail before I pay any more taxes.

If pass any government-run option, semi-option, option trigger, or similar health care legislation that does not put caps on medical malpractice awards, I will go to jail before I pay any more taxes.

If you pass legislation that raises the national debt, I will go to jail before I pay any more taxes.

The ball is in your court.

AN AMERICAN MANIFESTO

This six-minute video sums up everything I have been screaming about for almost a year. It's something you should not miss.

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

THE AFGHANISTAN DECISION

Standing before a military audience at West Point, Barack Hussein Obama appeared to be haughty and defiant as he began his address to the nation and announced his long-awaited decision regarding the Afghanistan conflict.

General McChrystal had asked for 40,000 more troops in Afghanistan, 40,000 being the minimum. For the following 90 days, the White House hammered away on the 40,000 figure as being what McChrystal recommended, but that 30,000 should be considered. Finally, under growing pressure and having been ostracized for his procrastination, Obama announced that he is approving another 30,000 troops for the war in Afghanistan. He was quick to say that McChrystal had not asked for the troops until 2010, and that allowed him to take time in making his decision. He was also quick to say that the additional troops would be coming home within 18 months, and justified that deadline as being a means to force the Afghanistan government to step up to the plate as well as the actual costs of the war.

Obama prefaced his remarks by saying that the war in Iraq should not have been fought and that all troops there would be removed within the next year. He did not mention that the number of U.S. deaths in Afghanistan under Bush averaged seven per month while averaging 28 since he took office.

Obama reasserted his intention to close the Guantanamo detention center, and then closed his speech with an emphasis about all of the good things the United States has accomplished in world security over the past 60 years. And, that was the gist of what the President had to say.

It’s what the President did NOT say that matters. He did NOT lay out his case for sending in the 30,000 troops. The fact that it took him 90 days to approve 10,000 troops less than what his commander in the field was asking for sends a clear message that he is not decisive and he is not committed to winning the war. He did not explain his strategy that he has been mulling over for the past 90 days while his detractors have been growing increasingly restless and critical. Nor did he fire up the audience with some statement to the effect that we can, we must, and we will win.

Other than that, I suppose it was a nice attempt.

I think that I would have thrown out a not-so-vague message about being able to have additional military strength in that area in case we should have to take some action regarding the Iranian situation. But, then again, if we keep allowing the Somali pirates to steal oil barges enroute to the United States, we may not have enough fuel to do much more than to make a fleeting appearance in Iran.

After such a long delay in reaching his decision, I expected a concise, well laid out, fiery speech and a dramatic finish that would inspire the country and rally the troops. I didn’t hear that. Maybe the thought that the $30 billion projected cost for the additional troops might sidetrack his government-run health care plan took the starch out of his britches.

IRAN FLIPS THE MIDDLE FINGER

SPECIAL POST

The very first thing that crosses my mind when Iran flips ITS giant middle finger to the rest of the world and announces that it will build as many nuclear facilities as it damned-well wants is that situation we were in when Jimmy Carter, Obama’s predecessor in winning the Nobel Peace Prize, was at the helm. If you remember correctly, the number one song-hit in those days was, “Bomb, bomb, bomb… bomb, bomb Iran.” And, here we are again.

The second thing that passes through my mind is the length of time it has taken Obama to make the decision regarding more Afghanistan troops; being well over 90 days, it shows the molasses-like speed of Obama’s thought processes and the charisma he asserts in his quest to be the de facto “messiah of the world.” I’d prefer to have a President with more decisive leadership skills as opposed to one who has charisma.

The realistic way to look at the situation from a purely military standpoint is that we urgently need to send 60,000 more troops and a whole bunch of military hardware into Afghanistan, just so they are strategically located in the likelihood that we have to deal with Iran in a more “politically incorrect” manner. There’s also the remote chance that the collective Iranian insane asylum might be persuaded to be more a little more neighborly without us having to stomp the shit out of them.

All of which brings us to the point: Within 10 short months of “change,” this country has progressed from being relatively secure in a post-9/11 world to being on the wrong end of nuclear-tipped missiles in the hands of Iran and North Korea, while being saddled with a President who seems hell-bent on getting his Government-run Health Care Plan passed. If Awkmandidhejig is already this rambunctious, what’s he going to be like to deal with during the New York City terrorist trials? The real question now facing us suddenly switches from, “How in the hell are we going to pay for this new Health Care Plan that is totally, totally out of touch with reality, when we have an economy that is on the verge of becoming the “Greatest Depression?” to, “How are we going to deal with Iran, North Korea, Afghanistan and the fact that our country is already internally permeated with radical terrorist factions? How will we survive?”

How will our unethical, corrupt, self-centered collection of clowns who occupy the halls of power in Congress and the White House handle this new ominous threat of a World War III? Will they, knowing that the world’s greatest financial crises have historically been solved by going to war, allow things to continue until the flames of war are lit once more? Is Obama, through his bows and apologies to the rest of the world not fanning those arrogant flames? Is he now going to tell us that it’s our fault?

Is the price we Americans must inevitably pay for allowing our morals, ethics and patriotism to crumble into a quagmire of self-centered evil that currently exists in our midst? What situation will this charismatic twit in the White House have us in after three more years?

That question really spurs you into wanting to go Christmas shopping, doesn’t it?

AMERICAN ANGER EVOLVING INTO HATRED & DISTRUST

SPECIAL POST

Almost from day one, the facts and figures coming out of Washington have been, to say the least, erroneous. One day they tell us this and the next day they change it to that. Operating in crisis mode, they bamboozled us into believing that the TARP money, the “stimulus” money, the bailout money…. All had to be spent within hours or the country was doomed. “Unless we spend this money right now, unemployment is going to soar. If we spend it right now, we can contain unemployment at 8%." We spent the money and unemployment is at 10.2% and rising.

One day, we’re going to have plenty of vaccine for the H1N1 virus. A few weeks later, they tell us about the shortage, but promise they will get that fixed. They never have, but they did admit that they "under-estimated" the situation. They are now suggesting that the swine virus might be merging with the bird flu virus into a new virus, so “what’s the big deal, anyway?” Maybe they'll name this new virus the "When pigs fly flu?" Try and say that ten times without going postal.

They tell us that so many tens of thousands of jobs have been saved or created as a result of their ERA spending, then we find out that the figures on their website are lies…lies they don’t plan to fix. Obama dismisses these lies by saying they are “just a side issue.” Okay, wise guy, I want to know what really happened to those billions of dollars that were pent in non-existent Congressional Districts. If it's just a side issue, show me the money!

Now comes forth the story that the facts and figures used to support the global warming theory have been manufactured over a 13-year period and that they are totally wrong. On this basis alone, how can we even think about “CAP AND TRADE?” Yet, Obama is rushing off to Copenhagen again, this time to try and talk nations of the world into following his lead and enacting similar Cap & Trade laws that will certainly spell more economic doom.

Pelosi and Reid have been working feverishly in trying to cram a Health Plan up our rear ends that we do not want. We all know many of the lies and manipulations they have put forth on us in trying to get this Bill passed. They seem obsessed with making those of us who are solidly against abortion pay the tab for those who are not. They refuse to even discuss malpractice reform. They hide substantial costs by forcing them upon the states, when we will end up paying for them anyway. They say that seniors will not be hurt, but seniors are taking the brunt of the costs; after we have been paying for insurance all of our lives, now they want to stick it to us. When their own budget office tells them the costs are too high, they go ballistic with indignant outrage. Just when you think they can't do anything more outrageous than the things they have already done to us, along comes the mammogram and cervical exam bull.

As for the illegal alien issue, you need to know that the Health Care Plan will says that illegal aliens won't be allowed to participate, but the move is already afoot to give the illegals full amnesty so that they can get our health care and this will further escalate the costs of "the Plan." (Not my fault, I didn't know they were going to do that. Gosh, we'll just have to raise taxes some more...again?)

They bring to our soil terrorist trials and, in so doing, they rub our noses into the reminders of 9/11. Holder assures us that the trials will not turn into a stage for the terrorists to spew forth their agenda from, and Obama practically guarantees they will be found guilty and executed. Both Holder and Obama totally ignore the will of the people, the terrorists change their pleas to innocent and announce they will be vocal and they have a right to be vocal and we can’t stop them. When Congress hauls Holder in for a dog-and-pony-show questioning, Holder basically fluffs them off.

At the same time, ACORN, a close ally of the President and of Holder, is suffering from rampant crime and corruption with OUR MONEY, and Holder flatly refuses to investigate or prosecute.

Now, Carl Levin and David Obey suggest that there should be a “War Tax” levied on us to cover the costs of the war in Afghanistan so that their “other objectives” such as Cap & Trade and the Health Care Bill don’t get sidetracked. They are being joined by the epitome of fiscal responsibility, Charles Rangel; the whole move is being undertaken to try to force us to turn against any “win the war in Afghanistan” strategy.

Here is the summation: We can’t trust their “figures.” We can’t trust their “facts.” We can’t rely on their “statistics.” To add insult to injury, they do not give a damn.

This is our fault. We are to blame. The buck stops with you and me. This anger in America, this steaming hatred that is nearing the boiling point, is being caused by our failure to rein these people in. We need to swell the ranks of the American Tea Party. We need to scream on the phone, send faxes by the millions, and burn up their Internet with our emails. We need to get in their faces again, like we did in the Town Hall Meetings, but this time we need to be sure they don’t have their earplugs on and that they are not surrounded by S.E.I.U. thugs.

If we don’t, I suppose we should do what the special interests do, and bribe them? Is this the only answer…get a few million dollars together and go pay them off to do their duly sworn jobs?

I don’t think so. Raising Holy Hell is the right answer, and we need to start right now, this very minute. And they need to be made to understand that we mean business.

A FISTFUL OF BIRDS

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Let's give Congress the bird!

REID'S HEALTH CARE FLEECING OF AMERICA

SPECIAL POST

Now he's buying votes and he's using our money to do it!

By the time these bastards in Congress get done picking our pockets and our bones, the only thing we are going to have left to cling on to is our religion and our guns, and they're already scheming on how to get them.

YES! Geithner needs to resign and he needs to take every damned member of Congress and the President with him!

Disgusted American.

WORLD WIDE ECONOMIC COLLAPSE LOOMING?

SPECIAL POST

A French bank, Societe Generale, is warning that global economic collapse could occur within the next two years. The bank warns that rescue packages over the past year have merely transferred private liabilities onto government shoulders, creating a fresh set of problems. Debt levels, public or private, are too high as a share of GDP.

In the United States, the Congress is nearing passage of a massive health care overhaul that promises to add billions of dollars to an already overburdened debt. If passed, massive tax increases could take effect as early as 2010, adding to double-digit unemployment, home foreclosures, and probably leading to a stock market tumble that would certainly not be reversible in any short term.

Tim Geithner will certainly have plenty of people to blame for his gross mismanagement and bad advice.

All kidding aside, this is serious news and tends to bolster the argument that our economy is far from being cured.

NATIONAL DAY OF PROTEST?

This government has gone too far, told too many lies, misspent too much money, commandeered too many of our personal freedoms, mortgaged the futures of our children, manipulated, misinformed, disinformed, bullied those who protest, covered up its misdeeds, surrounded itself with those who would bring our Constitution down, allowed illegals to enter and reside here against the law, mismanaged our system of justice, and thumbed its collective nose at every American institution that exists. “Shut up and get out of our way,” has become the mantra of our Government.

The same government that lies about what its stimulus plan is accomplishing, also fails to advise us that it has allowed another 1,000,000 illegal immigrants into the country while unemployment soars. It has saddled us and our grand children with a burden of debt that will break our backs and in doing so it has mortgaged our souls without giving us any benefits. Not only does it openly plan to redistribute wealth from those who have been successful to those who have sat on their duffs, but it also intends to send what little we have left to third-world nations in a global redistribution.

It is taking over our banks and financial institutions. It seeks to control an additional 1/6 of our economy by taking control of our health system. I can go on, and on, and on, and you know that to be true.

Ask yourself this: If the government has the gall to tell you, as a small business owner, that you will be fined up to $250,000 if you don’t buy health insurance for your employees, and that you will be sent to jail for up to five years for the same offense, and that you must give your employees paid days off if they get sick whether they have only worked one day for you or not… doesn’t it strike you as realistic that they will put you in jail if you can’t afford to stay in business and therefore decide to fire your employees and to close up?

How much of these cram-down, bully tactics are we going to take, and whose country is it, anyway?

Do you think they would get the message if we small business owners would just shut down for a day and if every patriotic American just flat didn’t show up for work for a day? Who would fly the airlines? Who would man the banks? Who would clear the snow off the roads? Who would sell gas? How much tax revenue would be lost?

None of us have any money to spend on gifts this year anyway, so we don’t we just take an extra day off and sit on our duffs and let those idiots in Washington stew in their own juices?

If they are going to treat us like crap, maybe it’s time we started acting like shit heads?

Dear God, am I losing my mind?

THE OBAMA TRIALS

Let us always remember: WE ARE NOT TO BLAME for this tragedy of errors. From this moment on, every time we hear of these New York trials for the terrorist scum, and every time some outrageous remark or happening occurs down this years long road of justice ahead of us, let us remember who brought them here against our better judgment and wishes... Barack Obama and Eric Holder. And, so that we don't forget... they should forever be dubbed "THE OBAMA TRIALS."
