BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING

SPECIAL POST

You have GPS in your car. You have a separate GPS handheld device. You have a cell phone. You have a laptop with internet access. You have a desktop computer with internet access. You have credit cards. You have a checking account and a savings account.


I, an obscure government agent in an obscure government office, a person you did not even know exists, can now determine:

• Your income and the income of your spouse 
• What you bought at Wal-Mart 
• Where you were at 11:45 AM yesterday 
• Who you were talking with on your cell phone at that time 
• What you were browsing on the internet at that time 
• How much you spent for lunch and how many people were in your party 
• How much you spent on sexual aids last month 
• Whether you spent more than you took in last month 
• If you have a secret lover 
• Whether or not you take medications for bowel problems 
• And so very much more.

Yasir Afifi, a 20-year-old computer salesman and college student, took his car in for an oil change and his mechanic spotted an odd wire hanging from the undercarriage. That led to the discovery of a GPS monitoring device. Granted, one could assume by the name that he could be a middle-eastern terrorist, but no such connection had been made. The Federal government asserted in court that the device was not subject to the wiretapping laws.


Several months ago, thousands of websites and blogs were summarily shut down without notice and without court order by the federal government and all news regarding this event was immediately blacked out.


How safe do you feel with our government?


Who are you going to vote for in November? 

ONE OBAMA TRAGEDY AFTER ANOTHER

Obama has said many things proven to be untrue. He has made many predictions that have not occurred. He has made many promises, all broken. Eric Holder announced he was going to try Khalid Sheik Mohamed and his side-kicks in downtown New York because the rules for evidence were a lot more favorable in a civilian Court than a Military Tribunal.

Opening statements are beginning with those “in the know” divided over whether the trial of Ahmed Khalfan Ghailani should open the door to a civilian trial for Khalid Sheik Mohammed and others. Ghailani is charged with conspiring with others including Osama bin Laden to blow up two U.S. embassies in Africa in August 1998. The attacks killed 224 people, including 12 Americans. If convicted, Ghailani could face life in prison. He has been accused by the government of being a bomb maker, document forger and aide to bin Laden.

However, prosecutors will proceed without their top witness after the Judge ruled last week that the witness’ testimony that he sold explosives to Ghailani must be excluded because the government only learned about him after Ghailani was water-boarded.

Isn’t that great? The first trial out of the shoot and we’re in trouble already. It’s just another one of those many Obama Administration fiascos. The arrogant ineptness of the whole damned regime is downright scary.

TWO YEARS: MEMORIES WE WOULD RATHER NOT HAVE

SPECIAL POST

In almost two years, Obama has not been able to advance one inch in dealing with Iran.

It came out at the end of 2009 that scientists were altering the facts when it came to talking about the climate, and there was White House Climate Czar and Al Gore advisor, Dr. John P. Holdren, right in the middle of it.

Despite imminent political losses in November, Obama is still dead set on getting his Climate Cap & Trade Bill through Congress, at an additional cost to the nation of $148 trillion over 10 years. And, should Congress not respond to his demands, he’s ordered the EPA to get the job done outside of Congressional action.

Back in December of 2009, the nation was wondering what the President was going to do about the unemployment problem. We’re still wondering.

Also in December of 2009, I said: “Our real war is not with terrorists; our real war is with the bastards on the Hill and in the White House who are willing to sell this country down the drain financially and change our government economically without a shot being fired.”

Obama lied, cheated, schemed, called names and bullied Congress into passing the Health Care Bill in March of 2010 and the Democrats all followed his lead without even reading a damned word of the 2,300 page Bill.

Eric Holder announced that he was moving the terrorists and holding their trials in New York City, and the nation went into an uproar. Obama backed Holder to the hilt and firmly said those were his intentions as well and all of the Democrats in Congress blindly followed Obama again. Eventually, the matter was put on the back burner and still festers, but Obama may be planning to renew his efforts in the lame duck session. Dozens have already quietly been moved from Gitmo to the Thomson Correctional Center in Illinois.

The Health Care Bill that was eventually passed does not limit malpractice awards, cut insurance premiums, resolve the prescription drug issues, deal with the Medicare crisis, or ensure seniors that they will not be called before death squads. It does, however, encourage insurance companies to raise our premiums, increases the national debt by over $1 trillion and still leaves 20 million or so Americans uninsured. Obama still champions it and the Democrats who voted for it are refusing to talk about it. Although Obama promised that it would be passed during completely open hearings, secrecy ruled the day.

ACORN was misspending our money and encouraging illegal acts. In case you forgot, ACORN worked extensively for Obama during his Presidential campaign and he was their attorney. ACORN eventually split up into smaller groups with a multitude of names, but they are all still connected and are all involved heavily in the coming elections. And, word has it, they are getting federal dollars into their coffers again, too.

Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi made continuous asses out of themselves with their lying, bullying and name calling.

Moody’s has warned the country numerous times that we cannot sustain our debt, but nobody in Washington is doing anything about it. Congress raised our national debt ceiling by almost $2 trillion.

Obama has been totally dragging his feet on the immigration issue and has ordered Holder to sue Arizona because it is trying to force the Feds to live up to the law. Democrats have written a Bill and are ready to pass it in the lame duck session that will grant total and complete amnesty to all illegals living in the United States and no one has yet to devise a sure-fire way to close the border.

Ben Nelson got a huge concession on the Medicaid issue for Nebraska in return for his vote for the health care plan. Remember that? It came after he was “allegedly” threatened by Rahm Emmanuel that he’d better toe the line of they would close Offutt Air Force Base. Nelson denied that story but took the Medicaid concessions and voted FOR the health care plan.

Representative Alan Grayson tried to jail a blogger who wrote against him.

Then there was Haiti, devastated by horrendous, calamitous earthquakes and responded to by an American government that could not provide hospitals or shuffle relief flights into or out of the country.

Only a blind stroke of luck prevented a plane from blowing up over Detroit. Obama and his cabinet stooges celebrated by claiming how great our defenses were.

Although FBI statistics show that the more guns people own and carry the lower the crime rate becomes, Obama, Holder, Emmanuel and the Democrat controlled Congress continued their relentless attempt to ban guns through court actions, and lost in Washington, D.C. and Chicago, Il.

While chastising Tea Partiers and opponents for being “racists,” Obama fanned the flames himself with help from Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter and Harry Reid.

Obama, Geithner, Bernanke and company continued to pour millions and billions of money into A.I.G., Goldman Sachs and other companies who were passing the money out like candy to top executives in the form of raises and bonuses. Congress called Geithner and Bernanke to the carpet, slapped their wrists and winked their eyes.

Scott Brown did the unthinkable in taking Ted Kennedy’s old Senate Seat and Harry Reid threatened not to promptly seat him.

Obama was running around telling everyone how great his American Recovery Act was doing; when the facts came out that the numbers being reported were purely fiction, Obama retorted that statistics don’t matter anyway.

The F.C.C. shut down thousands of blogs and the Administration buried the story.

Louisiana’s Mary Landrieu sold out her vote against the health care bill for what was thought to be $100 million. But, she promptly corrected everyone by saying it was $300 million and she did what was right for Louisiana.

Mortgage delinquencies and home foreclosures skyrocketed, new home sales plummeted, and now we find out that not only were loans mishandled when the money was being given out under pressure from Barney Frankfarter and Charles Dodd, but that the foreclosure process has been badly tainted as well.

It was discovered that elementary students are being subjected to singing songs praising Obama and writing stories talking about how our ancestors were bad guys.

You know, I’m just getting warmed up. I have gone back over just a few months of postings to come up with all of this. I can fill twice as many more lines with the things that our President and his dummies in Congress have done to us. It just goes on, and on, and on.

China attacked our computers. North Korea told Obama to essentially take a hike. BP played a real dog and pony show in the Gulf and the President bought into it. On and on.

Don’t you think it’s time we put the blame where it really belongs and put an end to this misery?  Please... Vote on November 2nd.

NEW YORK MOSQUE PROCEEDS

Remember the Health Care Plan that nobody wanted? Remember that no one gave a damn what we wanted and that they voted it in anyway?

Here comes the Mosque.

Developers have now released the design drawings for their new facility. Although it is claimed that the money to build the Mosque has not been fully raised, work to demolish the existing structure could start within days, not more than a week or two away. In fact, the money could already be in an off-shore account awaiting last-minute transfer into a New York bank.

The news media has been strangely silent, as if the White House told them all to shut up and not to report on the matter. In the meanwhile, Osama Bin Laden is once again on the muscle, threatening that he and his followers are going to do some serious damage in Europe and, maybe, the United States. This is all Muslim activity and we’re less than a year away from the tenth anniversary of 9/11.

When are we going to get the guts to stand up and do something about what our government is allowing to be done to us?

HOW THE INCUMBENTS REALLY PROCESS THEIR THOUGHTS

SPECIAL POST   

A week or so ago, I took on Lisa Murkowski and people like her who are not willing to accept the fact that the majority might not like them. These are the ones who decide to play the unethical game of running as independents or third party candidates in an effort to split the vote and secure victory for themselves with less than 50% of the vote. Murkowski, ticked off to no end that she was soundly beaten in the primaries, turned to the Libertarians to put her on the November ballot as their candidate. They refused. Now, she’s running as a “write in” candidate because there was no other way she could get a spot on the ballot.

Back in the primary days, she set about trashing Joe Miller, the guy who ultimately walloped her. She went on and on about what a lousy lawyer he was and how it would be a very bad choice for Alaskans to make should they vote for him. And, she hasn’t stopped.

What’s amazing is that Lisa Murkowski flunked her bar exam four times in a row.

I submit to you that this is how those guys think, the ones who piously stand there and tell us that they, and only they, know what is good for us as they vote for things we do not want. And yes, by the way, I understand that I am picking on a Republican. But, she certainly serves to make the point that we need to vote against incumbents. I have said it for well over a year: It has become a “culture” in Washington to think that they can get away with anything and we, the people, are simply in the way of things. Further, if “we, the people,” take it upon ourselves to remove “them, the elitist, self-serving, pious and non-responsive” ones, then it is only fit and proper that they should ignore us and find ways around us.

These people must be removed. We can get the entire House in this election and 1/3 of the Senate and two years from now, we can get another 1/3 of the Senate and maybe, pray to God, that damned culture they created will finally be dissolved.

TAX SHAFT: It’s Only A Matter Of When

Our most-highly celebrated Congress has decided to go home and wait until after the elections to “reach their decision” on whether or not to allow the Bush tax cuts to expire.

What does that mean? Well, let’s think it through together.

Leaving the Republicans aside because we all know where they stand, if the rest of them who happen to hold the majority in both houses and who WILL hold that majority until Congress reseats in January, intend to keep the Bush tax cuts in place, they’d vote on it now to try and gain favor with their constituents. If they intend to keep the cuts in place for the middle class and to raise taxes on the rich, they don’t want to do that right now because that will simply tick off both sides. If they intend to let the Bush tax cuts expire completely and give the whole nation the shaft, they’ll also wait until after the election so they can claim it as a “pay back” for losing both Houses of Congress.

So, it’s one of the latter two.

Nancy Pelosi has already made it plain as day that she intends to see all of the Bush tax cuts expire. Reid is a vengeful man and, after he loses in November, he’ll be all primed to let the Bush tax cuts expire entirely.

All of this conjecturing pretty much paints the picture, doesn’t it? Hold on to your knapsacks.

More than that, the fact that the present majority doesn’t have the guts to stand and be counted before the election underscores the dirty, rotten and conniving ways they have managed themselves for the past two years, with the Health Care Bill, stimulus, etc, etc, etc. The more I see of these lying, two-faced sacks of el toro pupu, the angrier I become. They have played the American public as suckers for so long, I can’t remember.

Joe Biden, the Archbishop of Candor, even had the temerity to tell them to quit their whining.

I don’t know about you, but I am sick and tired of the whole damned bunch. I’m to the point I don’t want to hear from them, I don’t want to hear about them and I sure as hell don’t want to hear that they’ve been reelected.

Can’t blame me for that, can you? 

TO ALL CITIZENS OF THE GREAT AMERICAN REPUBLIC

Never before in the history of this great country has the participation of the electorate been more profoundly required. The events of the past two years most certainly have proven that complacency and inaction are intensely dangerous to our Union. It is up to us to assert our rights as citizens and to take back our country from the control of those misguided souls who believe that our Constitution placed the power and authority of government in their hands and not ours.

We must make firm and unbreakable plans to vote this November 2nd. If not registered, we must register. If we are going to be away from our polling places, we must secure absentee ballots now. And, we need to spend an hour or more every day of the week for the next five weeks learning about the various candidates, their views, their history and their track records. We must look with severely critical eyes at the records of incumbents and we must summarily dismiss any lame excuses for poor decisions and failure to respond to the wishes of the populace.

We cannot survive even two more years of the horribly bad government that we have seen for the last twenty-two years. 

NOW IT'S OUR TURN

The White House came out yesterday and announced that the recession is over. To my recollection, this is about the third time that the White House has been out trumpeting non-existent success. What we can expect next, as has happened more than dozens of times in this administration, is that in some obscure newspaper in some obscure town on a Saturday morning, you’ll find on page 19 of the local newspaper a one paragraph statement saying that, alas, they made a mistake, the recession hadn’t ended.

I’m sorry to say this about the President of the United States, but the guy is a liar. He is a liar, his administration is a liar, Pelosi is a liar, and Reid doesn’t tell the truth. Virtually every “fact” and “figure” that has been released by these stalwarts of American government has been an outright lie. Think about it. Obama is a two-bit pathological liar and the rest of them are blindly following in the “wanna be” mode. The approval rating of Congress, the last I heard, was down into the teens. Obama, Reid and Pelosi are running around saying what a great job Congress does. What does that tell you?

This total lack of ethics and veracity at the pinnacle of our government has to be destroyed. It’s infecting our government employees, our state legislatures, our local governments, our education system and now, our homes; children come home from school every day with some of the most outrageous excuses for misbehavior that we have ever heard. Poor Lindsay Lohan, she just couldn’t help herself; maybe the caffeine in her lunch drinks did her in. Paris Hilton’s grandfather, believe it or not, ate his cereal without sugar on it and that turned her into a porno star and cocaine addict. Obama’s father left the family when he was young and that gives him the absolute right to lie.

The day is at hand, my friends, when we need to get back to the basics of being parents, children, employees, and Americans. A good place to start is in Washington, D.C. By getting rid of the derelicts who are in charge at such a high level, we have the opportunity to install men and women who speak the truth, accept responsibility for their own actions, believe in America’s heritage, and who are willing to listen to what we citizens are thinking.

I do recognize that this is a tall order, but we all know that it has to be done.

I want someone in Washington who, when 70% of the population is against a bill, will vote against it regardless of what the Speaker or the Majority Leader commands. I want someone there who, when a colleague commits a crime or has a severe lack of ethics, will call that person to task and see that he or she pays the penalty for their transgressions. I want someone who will not allow a 2,700 page bill to be created in the first place but, should that happen, will refuse to vote on it until they have read it.

You know how long this list could be, were I to list the multitudes and multitudes of things this Administration has succeeded in perpetrating against us. It really serves no purpose, other than historical, to list them here. It doesn’t do us any real good to lay out the blame, especially when we by our complacence must share some of that blame. What does matter is that we are virtually at the eve of having the opportunity to do something about it.

The primaries are behind us and now we face the general election. We have done an excellent job of ferreting out some of the bad guys so far. When we step into the voting booth on November 2nd, we have the opportunity to finish the job. Let us not falter or waver in our purpose. We have a job to do; let’s get it done.

EVEN IN TODAY’S CLIMATE, BAD POLITICS ABOUNDS

SPECIAL POST

It seems to me that when you lose, you lose. I know that as a kid, if I lost a game of chess, I’d just throw all of the pieces on the floor. That of course, made me the winner, because I’d then get up and walk out of the room to leave my opponent with the chore of cleaning up the mess. What a real sport I was.

Turning to politics and the primaries, you’ve had more than one candidate lose to his or her opponent and then decide to run as a third party candidate or even, most recently, a write-in candidate. The theory is this: With three candidates in the race, and with your position now drawing from the other two candidates, you could theoretically win even though you lost.

Here’s how crappy this end-run game plan gets. If you had 100,000 voters in the primary and you lost with only 40,000 votes, then you had 300,000 people turn out for the general election and you won with 110,000 votes, you actually won the whole ball game while being a minority vote-getter. You effectively cheated, in this case, 190,000 people who voted against you in the general election and you only had 110,000 votes.

To me, this goes against the grain of a fair game and it is unethical. Those who play this game including Alaska’s Lisa Murkowski and Florida’s Charlie Crist should be ashamed of themselves. This is straight from the playbook of “politics as usual,” that we’re all so sick and tired of. You know full well that, if elected back to Washington, they’ll continue to play those games that got us all into this mess. We need good leaders who will fairly represent our interests, not good politicians who spin, twist and don't give a damn about what the voters want.  

Don’t be to blame for more crapola in politics; don’t vote for this type of candidate. 

HEALTH CARE BILL: The Chickens Are Coming Home To Roost

Well, the next time you run across one of those Democrats who clawed and climbed over each other to sign on to the Health Care Bill that nobody wanted… you know them, they’re the ones who refuse to talk about the Bill in their reelection campaigns because they know we’re more than a tad ticked off about it… ask him or her this question:

“Mr. or Mrs. Candidate, assuming that the Republicans take control of both houses of Congress in November, and assuming that they enact a Bill to cancel the Health Care Bill, and assuming that President Obama vetoes that Bill, how would you vote in a Congressional attempt to override the veto?” In other words, are they embarrassed enough about the damned Health Care Bill that they voted for to retract it? Or, are they only embarrassed enough to duck the issue during the reelection campaign?

Now let’s play some nice, soft music: This one’s called, “The Squirm Dance Rhumba.”

More and more Americans who were ambivalent about the Bill are now coming to the realization that things are not turning out exactly as Barry, Harry and Nancy were saying they would. In fact, Madame Pelosi, now that we’ve had a chance to read the Bill to find out what’s in it, most of us would rather suck on a lemon. How you had the audacity to do this dastardly deed to your fellow Americans is beyond me.

Candidates are well aware of the fact that the Bill is very, very, very unpopular and, although they thought we’d get over it, they’re discovering that their vote for the Bill may have sealed their political fate. While that fact is making them a tad uncomfortable, the plain and simple matter of fact that this was just the straw that broke the armadillo’s back. It was just one more affront to the American intellect, one more bad piece of legislation, one more put-down of a citizen’s right not to have government involved in his daily life and one more example of total government irresponsibility.

Now that we have our Tea Parties, it seems that no one in Washington wants to come for tea?

November 2nd is virtually just around the corner. Short of a declaration of war, the stage is set for the people to extract their pound of flesh. Many incumbents have already been knocked off in the primaries and many more are staring their own unemployment straight in the face. If unemployment kicks back up to 10.0% and it’s because so many incumbents got pink slips, we’ll all be delighted.

And, we’re not to blame. 

JERRY BROWN FLAPS OFF AT THE MOUTH

Jerry Brown, California's Attorney General and now candidate for Governor, (again), made off the cuff remarks that slighted good old boy Bill Clinton over the weekend.  The remarks alluded to Clinton's propensity for lying.  Jerry caught serious flak over it and has had to issued an apology to Clinton and to fellow Democrats. 

Whether or not Jerry hit the nail on the head is not the issue; it's another one of those things about being "politically correct."  Jerry made the remark and stepped into deep pigeon dung and those of us who are old enough to remember when Jerry was California's Guv before know fully well how his mouth often leads him into oblivion.  

They don't call Jerry "Moonbeam" for nothing, and this is but one of example of why.  

We don't need Jerry in office again.  He's an old time politician and we all know how old time politicians have been screwing this country up for decades.  He's part of a problem California does not need again. 

If we vote him in, we will have nobody to blame but ourselves.  

MY CHOICE FOR A NEW MOSQUE LOCATION

SPECIAL POST

This post may not be politically correct. It certainly is a sensitive issue, especially in light of recent events, but what will be said here has to be said sometime, and I feel that the time has come.

Nine years ago, radical Muslims unleashed the power of their hatred toward us at the World Trade Center. As a result of that attack, our nation became aware that there are certain factions on this planet which want to annihilate us. Indeed, we had somehow had the audacity to presume that, just because we are Americans, the world is in love with us.

There are, of course, many reasons that radical Muslims want to see us beheaded and set on fire; I won’t dwell on them. What IS important to recognize and to fully realize is that our country has become permeated with members of the Muslim faith who have migrated here from countries that foster terrorism. I‘ve heard it mentioned quite frequently in these past few days that we need to be ready for terrorism from within, and we must. Yet, those remarks are made in a general context and usually contain the caveat that we have totally American factions within the country who would do us harm in order to advance their own agendas as well. But, those factions have always existed in this country going back to pre-revolutionary times and we have always been able to deal with them; what we need to really concern ourselves with in 2010 is the threat of domestic terrorism raised from internal radical Muslim groups.

Let me be quick to say that I am not suggesting we should round up all Muslims and ship them out of the country. What does concern me, however, is that Muslims of all walks of life in this country have been somewhat reluctant to denounce radical Islam. One therefore must wonder what side of the fence they would all stand on if the call came from radical Muslim leaders to strike us from within. Would they join us, or them?

I feel that we Americans must be totally aware of the dangers that lurk within our country and that we must constantly contemplate the potential outcomes of possible and probable internal terrorism. In that regard, moving the Mosque from its intended location near the ground-zero World Trade Center site to the actual site itself seems to me to be the right solution. Having the Mosque on that hallowed ground would certainly serve as a constant reminder to us that we are now living in a dangerous time and a dangerous world. Moving it to some other out-of-sight place could serve to return us to our complacent vulnerability. 

IF MCCAIN HAD WON?

Would the economy be better? McCain doesn’t have the business acumen needed to get things cooking any more than Obama does. But, I do think he would have called together the nation’s top experts on the subject and that he would have listened to what they had to say. Obama hasn’t even done that.

Would the New York Mosque be built? Absolutely not; I think McCain would have fought that one tooth and nail, just because of his military experiences. And, the guys down in Guantanamo would all still be there; none of them would have been released to go back and fight with the Taliban and Al Queda, as has Obama has allowed. No one would have dared to suggest that Khalid Sheik Mohamed be tried in New York City, either.

Would the new Health Care Plan have been passed? Not in its present form. I think there would have been steps taken against malpractice lawsuits and awards and against escalating insurance costs. On the other hand, I would also have expected an open and outright attack on Social Security and Medicare benefits, instead of the subtle, sneaky one that Obama undertook.

Would there be constant lies about statistics and accomplishments? No, McCain likes to take it on the chin. In this respect, he’s not a coward, but he’s a stand up guy. And, I don’t think he’d be blaming Bush for everything, either.

Would the Gulf Oil Spill have happened? Undoubtedly, but I don’t think McCain would have given BP an award for outstanding rig safety and drilling practices, either. I also think he would have reached out for help and that it would have been mitigated within the first 30 days; he certainly would not have turned away help like Obama did.

Would we have spent trillions of dollars on stimulus programs? Well, we would have spent money, not as much by far, by reducing taxes and giving some incentives for employers to hire. We certainly would not have been taking over banks and automobile companies. I think that unemployment would therefore be lower… not at the 5% levels we had going in to this mess, but certainly not at 10%, either. I think the figure might be closer to 7% and that there would be a somewhat better economic stability, although not by a whole lot.And, I feel there would be a full-fledged investigation into who did what when causing the mess in the first place. 

Would the Tea Party exist? I think it might. There has been growing discontent with Washington in recent years. Nevertheless, I think the Tea Party targets would be the same, to control spending and reduce taxes and to get some sense of responsibility back into the government.

Where would McCain be in the opinion polls? Obama is in the dumps, with the majority of Americans thinking he is doing a poor job. I think McCain would be faring better, maybe 51% or 52% of Americans supporting his job. But, he’d be under horrendous and relentless fire from the media and press.

Would Palin be a better Vice President than Biden? Without question, I think you would see her as being a strong asset for the President instead of detracting and providing an opportunity for guffaws.

The country would not be moving toward Marxism under McCain, that’s for certain. On the other hand, the main drawback to having McCain as President is that the nation would be left without a Robert Gibbs to provide laughter and frivolity while fumbling blindly through the day.

Frankly, we’re to blame for having considered either one of them for the job.

DEMOCRATS, OTHERS SHAKING IN THEIR BOOTS?

If I’ve heard it once in the past week, I’ve heard it two dozen times: the Democrats are afraid of the election and are shaking in their boots. The second fear I have heard, not quite so frequently, is that ALL incumbents are worried about the foreboding November elections. There’s even an inference that we, the citizens, are to blame for their fears.

Well, I’m glad they are shaking in their boots, but they really have no one to blame but themselves. After all, and I’m sure you will remember, they are the ones who called us names, talked down to us in their condescending ways, and then proceeded to pass the health care plan and stimulus plans and other legislation that we, the people, we solidly against. They followed Nancy and Harry and Barry into the back rooms of Congress, struck their dirty deals, and shoved it where the sun does not shine. They even had the gall to admit that they had not read what they passed.

Now, they’re nervous? They’re afraid? I don’t know about you, but I have no pity for them. They have screwed, screwed, screwed and screwed you, me and all of our friends.

Let’s keep the focus. They do have to be removed. All of the squirming in the world does not change the fact that they have betrayed the public trust.

CHAIRMAN BARACK: MORE OF THE SAME BLAME GAME

Many times in our history when times were tough or the situation dire, Presidents have come back from a brief respite with innovative new ideas to fix things. Chairman Barack has just returned from a ten day retreat with what is obviously going to be more of the same defiant, holier-than-thou attitude that has led our country deep into the throes of impending economic and psychological depression.

He’s still blaming Bush and the Republicans for all of his mistakes. He wants to have more of the runaway, irresponsible spending that is threatening the retirement incomes of our grand children and not helping our country one damned bit. He wants to raise taxes and to place heavier burdens on our unemployed, underemployed, underpaid citizens and businesses. He calls those who question his tactics “irresponsible,” and he derides those who won’t kiss his damned ring and go along with the program.

Hundreds of thousands of people showed up in Washington on the 28th to protest the status quo and to pledge a renewal toward truth and faith.  Our President dismissed them as a “few people” who don’t agree with him; he dismissed Glenn Beck as being one of “those who are always stirring things up.” He has dismissed Americans as being “misguided” as if we can’t think for ourselves.

Well, we CAN think for ourselves, Chairman Barry. We don’t want any more of your benevolent leadership garbage. We don’t want any more of your eloquent speeches and dialogue. We don’t want any more of your talk downs and your arbitrary dismissals of public concern.

We’re tired of your blaming Bush, blaming the Republicans and blaming US for your actions that are worsening our economy, our security and our future every minute of every day.

Yes, we want change all right. Yes, you fit very much in our desires for change. If you don’t have anything good to say, keep your mouth shut. If your actions are hurting the country, quit taking actions. If you can’t do your job the way we want you to do your job, pack up and hightail it out of town. Go stand in the unemployment line for a day or two and get a real grasp on what your administration is doing to our country. There’s a whole bunch of people out there in those lines who can say it better than I can and are certainly willing to do so.

A REAL man, faced with a nation of people who so abundantly have made it clear they do not appreciate what he has done, would stop and be a little more introspective. But, I guess Obama will never, ever be introspective, because he just might find out where the blame for things in America really belongs. 

AMERICA IS MISSING THE REAL POLITICAL DRIFT

SPECIAL POST

We all had our focus just a few weeks ago when the Obama radicals started their campaign to distort what is real. We all knew in our hearts and souls that we had to get rid of the establishment, the incumbent s.o.b.’s who have created our national mess at a federal and a state level over the last several decades. Yes, we agreed, regardless of being Democrat or Republican or Independent, if they have been for of the “good old boy” Washington network, they have to go.

Have we lost sight of that objective?

Two prime examples of where I am going with this special post are: (1) You have Carly Fiorina running against Barbara Boxer and you have the public concern that Fiorina is new to politics, has lots of money and ran HP; (2) You have Meg Whitman running against Jerry Brown and you have the outcry that Whitman is spending millions and millions of her own money to win and SHE has no political experience.

Come one folks, get real. We all know that Barbara Boxer is a tartly little snit who has consistently voted for her own special interests and who has ignored the will of the people. We are aware of her elitist put-downs of Generals and others and we know that she has done a great disservice to the country. I submit that Craig Highfellow would be a much better occupant of that Senate seat than Boxer. Who is Craig Highfellow? I don’t know either and that makes the point; Boxer has done such a bad disservice to us that she needs to be replaced… by anyone! So, don’t get tangled up in the bad Fiorina press; we don’t yet know what kind of a Senator she would make, but we certainly know what kind of a Senator Boxer has been.

Same with the Whitman vs. Brown Gubernatorial race. We KNOW from past experience what kind of a Governor Brown will be. We need to choose anyone but him.

Unlike prior elections, this is not about who runs the slickest campaign or who has the most money or who talks the nicest. This is about corruption in office, a lack of responsibility to the citizens, and cavalier spending and misspending of our money. This is about an establishment that simply must be removed.

So, don’t be to blame for not routing out the establishment. Don’t get sidetracked with fallacious arguments.

Throw the incumbents and the establishment out, OUT, OUT. 

MEXICO FALLING INTO ANARCHY?

The number of drug related deaths in Mexico is growing by the second. Victims are found hanging upside down from their legs, with their heads lopped off. Bullets are flying in all directions, including over the border and into American homes and businesses. Every day brings more stories of judges and civic leaders being murdered and major cities falling into anarchy.

Americans living in Mexico are now being pried out of their comfortable retirement abodes and are flocking back across the border, fleeing for their lives. Now, more than ever, Mexicans are looking to the North for a venue of safe haven.

The Obama Administration has responded with great aplomb: they’re adding 1,200 National Guard troops to the border and another 1,000 Border Patrol agents as well. Word is wafting about in Washington that Obama is preparing to open the borders wide and to offer to house and feed the fleeing Mexicans and to provide them with some of the trappings of health care, education, housing, and jobs. Usually, when something wafts around the streets and alleys of Washington, there’s substance to it.

I’m not suggesting that we should turn our backs on humanity. But, let me ask you a question: If all of the clean-living Mexicans come across the border and leave only the drug lords and their puppets behind, what do you think those drug lords and puppets will do next? The fact is, they’re already jumping the borders themselves and committing murder and mayhem in Phoenix, Nogales, Tucson and other border cities. Obama and his Czarist cronies in the White House are responding with yawns and shrugs.

We have a major problem here that is not only brewing, it’s beginning to boil.

Those of us who live up north are able to watch the horrors and atrocities oozing forth from the border and to say, “Gosh, gee whilikers, those folks down there are having a tough time of it.” If you are afraid of the American gang activities going on across the country right now, wait until these Mexican gangs and drug lords bring their forms of onslaught to a street near you. The Obama Administration has proven beyond a reasonable doubt that it is either incapable of giving the issue proper response or it simply doesn’t care how much turmoil we have in America.

It’s time for us to take the bull by the horns and to start demanding action from Congress. We need a large number of troops on the boarder and we need to be partnering with the Mexican government to help them clean this mess up… whether their government wants our help or not. Only when the drug lords are killed or locked up can peace return to the Mexican countryside and only then can the pressure for Mexicans to cross the border into the United States be diminished.

If there is a war to be fought anywhere, the one closest to home should take precedence. If there is anyone to blame in America for this mess, it’s the incumbent in the White House and his allies in the Congress. 

SICK AND TIRED OF DONATION REQUESTS

SPECIAL POST

Here’s an interesting complaint from a reader of the BURNEY MOUNTAIN HERMIT.

“Why is it that every political candidate, every political party, every charitable cause and every other organization looking for a handout is picking on me? I get so much mail every day that it will not fit in my box. I only get 35 telephone calls a week and 34 of those are from someone looking for money; the other call is from my ex-wife’s attorney, looking for money. When I tell them I can’t afford to give, they argue with me. When I tell them I don’t support their organization, they argue with me. When I tell them I’m on the national do not call registry, they argue with me.

“I’ve been out of work for almost two years. I’ve put out at least 1,000 resumes and personally gone for 100 or more job openings, (along with 500 or more people each time). Do I get any telephone calls or letter from those people? No, all I get is people looking for money I do not have.

“My God, one day I got a call from the Republican National Committee and when I hung up the phone, Nancy Pelosi’s office was calling me.

“Don’t you understand how low I feel? I’m about to lose my house and my car. My savings and retirement are all gone. My wife walked out on me and took the kids. And now these money hungry idiots come along and belittle me and argue with me because I can’t kick in 'Just $25?'

“How dare you! Who in the hell do you think you are, you pious holier-than-thou vermin who have never missed a meal in your God damned lives?”

I totally understand.  

BLAGOJEVICH VERDICT SYMPTOMATIC OF WHAT AILS AMERICA

Rod Blagojevich, the charismatic former Governor of Illinois, was found guilty of one count out of 24 pending against him by a Federal Jury yesterday; 23 ended up in a mistrial due to hung jury. Prosecutors were quick to vow that they will immediately seek a new trial on the remaining counts.

When you look back at the foul language, the forlorn cries of “What’s in it for me” and much of the other testimony that was revealed to the public, one’s first reaction might just be, “That’s Chicago-style politics.” But, I think it is more than that. I think it is an example of the decline of our morals and ethics in this country and I further think that such decline is directly responsible for the situation in which this country now finds itself.

“It’s of the “everything for me and screw everyone else” mentality. People of this culture tend to be smooth talkers who are of the opinion that he world owes them something. When you become that narcissistic, to the extent that you believe the world revolves around you, ethics and moral principles must inevitably take a back seat. In the evolution of things, it would seem to me that anarchy is the next step. We’re close to that now.

Those in places of high power who ignore the will of the people are of this mindset. They are so wrapped up in themselves that everyone else ceases to exist. And, as this mindset has permeated all facets of life in our country, we have lost work ethics, a strong sense of what is right and what is wrong, and we’ve had a basic decay of our society.

There was a day in my lifetime when this behavior was unacceptable. Things in this country were much better in those days. We looked up to politicians, we had much less crime and our country was not heading for international bankruptcy. We had ethics and morals and when people violated them, there was hell to pay. According to those rules, at least half of Congress would be out of a job today, and so would the President.

We simply have to get back to the basics of living by good and fundamental values. We need to instill those values in our children and we need to demand that they be followed. Otherwise, America will just keep on sinking into the abyss and we will be to blame. 

REPUBLICANS HAVE RUDE AWAKENING COMING

SPECIAL POST

I’ve been called so many times by representatives of the Republican National Committee asking for donations lately that I’ve worn a hole in into the earpiece of my telephone. What’s really interesting is their reaction when I tell them that, “No, I’m definitely NOT contributing to the Republican National Committee this year. My money is going directly to the candidates.”

The argument comes from some that the Committee can’t provide background support to the candidates without funding. Others try to tell me that the bulk of candidate funding comes from the Committee. Recently, a lady proceeded to argue with me as to how I should donate my money and tried to denigrate me as a member of the Republican Party by saying that I’m not supporting the Republican Party unless I give to the Committee.

She hit the nail on the head. She needs to take the message and deliver it to the top. But, the top is not listening. The top still thinks that, when we vote for Republicans this fall, we will be subscribing to the ideals of the Party. They think it will be THEIR mandate.

They’re as dense as a San Fernando Valley fog.

The only reason we are going to be voting for Republican candidates this fall in many instance is because they are the lesser of two evils. We’re going to have to go through this cycle a few times until we get all of the politicians out who seem to think that we owe them something. There is no evidence that the National Committee has come to grips with the fact that they and their thinking are just as guilty for the problems this country faces today as are the Democrats and, indeed, the left-wing radicals as well. Further, there’s no sign that the National Committee is sincerely willing to change its ways.

If the Republican Party doesn’t step up to the plate by November, it likely will be one of three major political parties in the 2012 elections, because the Tea Party will most certainly morph into a political party of its own if substantial corrections are not made on the landscape in 2010.

In the meantime, you had Republicans spending Party money on lap dances in Los Angeles. There have been many other examples of flagrant abuse of the membership funds and support. But, there have been no changes at the top. That’s why MY money and MY support are going directly to the candidates. 

This is the last stand.  If they don't wake up, they'll be the ones to blame.  If the candidates violate my trust and my donations this time around, my money and support will be going to the Tea Party next time around. 

LEFT-WING IMPOSTERS TRY TO CRASH TEA PARTIES

SPECIAL POST

The radical left-wing has taken to gutter politics again. This time, they are putting up candidates of their own and then trying to claim that the candidates are really Tea Party members, when local Tea Partiers have never heard of them. This is a flagrant attempt to divide the Tea Parties against themselves and, hopefully, to split the Republican votes as well. "It's obvious it's a Democratic play," said Jason Gillman, a Tea Party activist from Traverse City, MI. 

In Michigan, state Republicans and Tea Party activists are currently trying to invalidate at least some of the candidates running under the Tea Party name. In Nevada, a judge in April ruled that Senate candidate Scott Ashjian could run under the Tea Party name despite claims that he was an imposter. Earlier this year, Republican candidate Danny Tarkanian told FoxNews.com that "nobody" in the local Tea Party movement knew who he was and that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's supporters may have entered Ashjian into the race to help Reid. 

These activities are happening in several states. Moreover, there are also allegations that left-wingers are attending some Tea Party meetings and creating disturbances in public, bringing disfavor and criticism on legitimate Tea Party members. 

These activities are totally against the basic fundamental principles of a democracy. The fact that the Democratic Party is turning a blind eye to them underscores its complicity. Obviously, these liberals have no real arguments to substantiate their positions and have to resort to under-handed and unethical actions in order to try and force their agendas on the rest of us. They and their cohorts are to blame for most of the problems facing the country today; they need to be shouted down and removed from the light of day.

WHO IS TO BLAME FOR NATIONAL SECURITY LEAKS?

If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a dozen times. My stance on the WikiLeaks case has been and still is: What’s all of the fuss about? The President of the United States, Barack Hussein Obama, released Top Secret CIA documents shortly after he took office and he did it against the advice of his CIA Director, past Directors and the general public.

So, you know where I stand on that issue.

Still, the idiots in Washington and in the media want to make a big deal out of it. They want WikiLeaks and its owner to spend the rest of his life in purgatory for releasing these national secrets. Well, let’s examine some issues here. To start off with, where did he get his materials? Allegedly, he got them from a low-level enlisted guy. I don’t even know that the Marine had a Top Secret clearance himself; I doubt it, because not everyone in the military gets one. I had one, and I was one of a handful on a very large Air Force Base.

With all of the documents being released, I have to think there are at least one or two more sources. If not, why was this one enlisted guy entrusted with access to all of those documents? Historically, the rules of security around areas where Top Secret documents are manufactured and stored is so intense that it boggles my mind that these documents ever saw the light of day. Obviously, whoever was in charge of security in the location(s) where these documents were kept did not do his job.

But, it goes further. There are supposed to be routine tests of the security in place to determine whether or not the system and the people involved are safeguarding our national secrets according to the established policies and procedures. Any breach is promptly reported all of the way up the chain of command and there are thorough follow-up investigations. If those security tests were not being conducted, why not? And, it’s obvious that it went on for a lengthy period of time and would not have been discovered had it not been for the documents’ release on the WikiLeaks site.

These guys are in charge of our national security. Our national security has been falling apart ever since our President saw fit to turn the subject matter into a political tool. The whole scenario is a horrible joke on the American public. The chickens are out of the coop and the ultimate blame lies with the Commander in Chief.  

AGENTS TICKED OFF AT IMMIGRATION OFFICIALS

FOR TIME IMMEMORIAL, POLITICS HAS BEEN DIRTY; IT’S TIME TO CLEAN IT UP

SPECIAL POST

My fellow Americans, it is a tragedy that we have put ourselves into the position where no worthy man or woman wants to run for public office because, in order to do so, they must be willing to lay down their honorable upbringings and principles and to join the politics of the dirty. We, the citizens of the world, bear the responsibility for allowing politics to be dirty. We are to blame; it’s our fault.

The blame lies with us because we have tolerated it and we are complicit and partners in it because we have turned our backs away from it, rather than faced it head on and removed it from our system. Running for public office in this country should not only be a privilege, it should be an honor and there should be no more honorable a profession than to serve in public office.

We see it in the halls of Washington every day, but it also exists in our states, counties and local governments. We see it in Bell, California, where city officials were paying themselves outlandish salaries and benefits. We see it in Illinois where a governor conspired to obtain political and monetary favors in exchange for naming a President’s favored candidate to fill his unexpired term. We see it in Massachusetts, where a United States Senator who advocates high taxes moves his boat to another state where there are no taxes. We see it in the courts, where an openly gay judge agrees to hear a case regarding gay marriage. We even see it in the press, of all places, where journalists turn their backs on their duties to their fellow countrymen and write stories and news that curry favor with political insiders. Yes, it is tolerated and even expected.

I submit to you that any person at any level of public responsibility who does not hold himself or herself up to the highest standards of morals and ethics should be removed and disgraced.

My God, does it not anger you that there are people running for various offices in this country right now, after all we have been through, who have tarnished personal and political reputations? Doesn’t it anger you more that we are faced with the problem that their opponents are just as tarnished as they are?

Why? Why have we allowed ourselves to evolve into the level of complacency in this country that we can just pass it off as being “politics is dirty” and to buy into the proposition? Why?

Do we have the guts and the fortitude to stand up to the dirty politicians and say, loudly and clearly… “Enough is enough, get the hell out?”

Until we do, no decent worthwhile man or woman is going to want to run for office. They may have all created this mess, those dirty toileticians but, the day has arrived when we must clean it up.

Get out and vote.

IRAN POSES IMMINENT THREAT TO WORLD PEACE

That’s a mouthful. That’s scary. How can that be?


You and I both know that our government never tells us the truth about such things. If we were to find out today that Iran had produced enough nuclear material to make two bombs, for example, we would be safe to assume that Iran had that nuclear material a year ago and our government knew it. It just came out today, but it happened a year ago. Agreed? 

Well, Leon Panetta said on June 27, 2010, that Iran has enough nuclear material to make two bombs. He also said that he felt that Iran could actually produce those bombs within two years. The question is: how far are they really away from having two nuclear bombs? I say that two years is a lie. Will we awaken tomorrow to find out that they already have those two nukes? Wait a minute. If Panetta is saying two, is it actually four or six or ten? 

Even nearby nations, normally antagonistic to the United States and sympathetic to Iran, are now concerned. Here’s something more to consider: We know and accept that Iran wants to nuke Israel and most of those countries would be happy to see it happen. But, after Israel, what then? 

Iran has had its eyes focused on Iraq for years, even centuries. Being a radical Islamic country, why stop with Israel or Iraq? Egypt has been friends with us, off and on; certainly, they must be a target. Turkey, for sure. Actually, it doesn’t take much imagination to see Iran going after the entire Middle East. 

Who would stop them? China? Russia? France?

Iran is another World War II Germany in the making. The United States, fully cognizant of the danger, has been pussy-footing around with Iran for at least five years. This waltz has always been with Iran at the lead. We would like to think we are putting heat on Iran, but they know and we know in our hearts that all we have been doing is drawing lines in the sand and continuously backing up, hissing and pissing in the wind and then drawing new lines. 

The only thing that has been accomplished in the last five years, for example, is that Iran is now five years closer to having their nukes. That’s all; nothing else has transpired. 

LONDON, (AP January 1, 2012) Two nuclear weapons were detonated in Israel this morning, one in Tel-Aviv and one in Hebron. There has been no word from Israeli authorities as to the extent of damages or loss of lives. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad issued a statement in Tehran claiming victory for Iran and Islam.

We know the day is coming, and soon. Do we, by our passionate display of weakness, want to be to blame for this? 

HOW DO YOU RATE YOUR GOVERNMENT?

Here are the results as of yesterday on a CBS Poll asking participants to grade the President:
1. The Economy: 17.8% give him a D, 67.6% give him an F = 85.4% unfavorable
2. Foreign Policy: 21.66% give him a D, 59.68% give him an F = 81.34% unfavorable
3. Health Care: 8.31% give him a D, 78.67% give him an F = 86.98% unfavorable
4. Afghanistan: He did much better, 54.77 % D or F and 45.23% C or better
5. Iraq: 59.73% D or F and 40.27% C or better
6. Threat of Terrorism: 21.19% D and 57.52% F = 78.71% unfavorable
7. Energy and the Environment: 21.03% D and 55.04% F = 76.07% unfavorable
8. Social Issues: 18.95% D and 58.84% F = 77.79% unfavorable
9. Bipartisanship: 8.08 % D and 78.2% F = 86.28% unfavorable
10. Overall Grade: 22.25% D and 63.76 % F = 86.02% unfavorable.

Another Poll shows 13% think Congress is doing a good job.

Don’t blame me; I just report the facts. 

SEC GOES ON THE MUSCLE: IS IT POLITICAL?

SPECIAL POST

The SEC has filed charges against two conservative Texas brothers, Sam and Charles Wyly, who have made major donations to the Republican Party and to GOP candidates in the past, according to the WASHINGTON POST.  The SEC alleges that the two brothers committed fraud by using overseas bank accounts to generate more than $550 million through illegal stock trades.  The thrust of the allegations is that they bought and sold stock through the overseas banks in U.S. based operations where they served on boards of directors and they failed to disclose those transactions as required by the SEC.  

The Wylys have denied the charges.

ARIZONA IMMIGRATION LAW GUTTED

SPECIAL POST

Yesterday, the Judge ruled largely in favor of the United States Government. What this means is that the illustrious Obama Administration can continue to ignore its own immigration laws. This puts Arizona in the untenable position of being invaded by illegal aliens, being forced to pay the tab, being subjected to the crime and other anti-social effects, and being unable to do a damned thing about it.

What is the Sam Hell is this country coming to? Watch the boys on Pennsylvania Avenue find a way to twist the blame for this to us, the victims. 

As for the Judge, look for Obama to name her to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals as soon as an opening comes up.   

WHY WIKILEAK LEAKS ARE OKAY BY ME

SPECIAL POST

On April 16, 2009, President Obama ordered the release of four Justice Department memos that described in detail the techniques used to interrogate Khalid Sheik Mohamed and other high-value terrorists. Many current and former high-level intelligence officials objected.   Mike Hayden, former CIA Director said: "You had CIA directors in a continuous unbroken stream to 1995 calling saying, 'Don't do this.'" 

News of the impending release of the documents was met with outrage by Members of Congress and Americans alike.  In addition to objections from the men who led the agency for a collective 14 years, the President also heard objections from the agency's covert field operatives. A few weeks earlier, Leon Panetta had arranged for the eight top officials of the Clandestine Service to meet with the President. It was highly unusual for these clandestine officers to visit the Oval Office, and they used the opportunity to warn the President that releasing the memos would put agency operatives at risk. The President reportedly listened respectfully -- and then ignored their advice and released the highly secret memos.

With these actions, Barack Obama arguably did more damage to America's national security in his first 100 days of office than any President in American history.

If you are going to hold anyone's feet to the fire for the leaking of highly sensitive material, you should begin with the President of the United States.  

OBAMA: BOW DOWN AND DO AS I SAY?

It seems as if Obama has sent forth his emissaries into all the corners of the land to ascertain what it is that the peasants want done about this or that, and then he has set courses to do exactly the opposite. Could it be a battle of wills? Could it be that he has determined that “change” cannot be had until the peasants become totally subservient to him? Must he obliterate their wills before he can have his?

Against the will of the public, he passed TARP and stimulus. Much against the will of the people, he used lies, tricks, political demands, and outright threats and bribery to pass the Health Care Plan. He has stood firmly against every major position of Americans everywhere. Now, we find out that both he and Harry Reid are conspiring on how to ram the public option government-run health care plan up our rears whether we like it, or not.

If that doesn’t get your bowels into an uproar, try this one on for size: FULL AND COMPLETE AMNESTY FOR ALL ILLEGAL ALIENS IS IN THE WORKS. Not only is full and complete amnesty quietly working its way through the Czarist Empire at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, but it is also on its way down the street to The Hill and Obama has not even given one iota of thought to closing the border with Mexico. NOW do we have the attention of your bowels?

The Lord, His Royal Highness, Ruler of the Empire of Darkness is well aware of the fact that he is almost to the very bottom of the polls, but he cares not. He plunges forward, oblivious to the will of the people, determined to triumph on every issue. When the Court ruled against his shutdown of deep water drilling, he side-stepped the ruling by finding another reason and he shut the drilling down again. When 73% of the American people stood firmly against his new Health Care Plan, he lied about the costs, he lied about the benefits, he lied about the impact on Seniors, he threatened Congress and he got it passed; now, it is slowly emerging that the budget figures were skewed, the benefits were misstated and the seniors are going to get the shaft and he’s going after his public option.

When the people rise up and form groups standing against his tyranny, (Tea Parties), he sends out his legions to disrupt their meetings and to marginalize them by calling them “racists, Astroturf, and right-wing extremists.”

Obama is bound and determined to have his way. Those in Congress who have allowed him to grab and assert this power are complicit in his evil doing. In a mistaken belief that he cares about them, they have bent to his will and fornicated themselves into impending losses at the November polls. Undaunted, uncaring, Obama pushes forward, trashing anyone who stands in his way. He’s going after Fox News, talk radio and bloggers; it is obvious that he has issued orders to his cabal to find a way to shut them all down. He has commandeered the press and the media and turned them into anti-American propaganda machines; that’s the flat out truth with no exaggeration.

United we stand, divided we fall. We peasants must stand together, ready and willing to fight to our last breaths to take our country back. I for one will not go down in the annals of mankind as being an American who was to blame for the destruction of our country because I bowed to the almighty power of a make-believe henchman. 

OUR NATIONAL SECURITY PERIL: Obama Shirks His Responsibilities

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

We all know where this story begins, with the Administration's open attack on agents of the Central Intelligence Agency and other national security branches who have been charged with gathering international and domestic information pertinent to the security of our country. Where it has led is not only frightening, but repugnant as well; today, our borders are wide open, our allies are sharing less information with us, we are allowing those who threaten our civil rights to vote be immune from prosecution, we are fomenting hatred among radical groups, we are fanning the flames of racial and religious discrimination and we continue to keep our ports, borders and airways wide open to terrorists. We are wide open to attack both from abroad and from within.

The fact is, thousands of illegal aliens other than Mexicans cross our southern border from countries that sponsor terrorism, and it has been deliberately concealed and covered over by our government.  Let me repeat this: thousands of illegal aliens other than Mexicans cross our southern border from countries that sponsor terrorism and our government is not only doing nothing about it, but is choosing to cover it up. A Phoenix facility holds illegal border crossers from Afghanistan, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, Yemen and who knows where else?

Congress knows it. The President knows it.  It leaked out in the press a few weeks ago and the story got promptly snuffed. Our President, bowing to indignation and pressure from Arizona’s Governor Jan Brewer over the illegal immigration issue, decided to handle the situation by sending 1,200 troops to cover the California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas borders with Mexico.

Now, one must ask, how many more terrorists are sneaking in from Canada? As crewmen on shipping vessels? Or, as passengers on international flights… the ones we don’t catch… with the morale among TSA agents running at low ebbs? When a state, inundated by violent crime, kidnappings and murder, takes it upon itself to try and force the Government to enforce its own laws, why does this Administration choose to display indignation and to bring suit?

How many of these terrorists who are now here in our country are hiding out in mosques? How many of them are being unwittingly harbored by “sanctuary cities?” Are they in your neighborhood? Do they carry poison for your water system, materials to start forest fires, bombs? Are they recruiting the kid next door to be a member?

The plain truth is that this President, by his abject failure to exercise his duties, has exposed our country to a far greater risk of attack, both externally and internally than we have ever faced in our entire 234 years as a nation. And the obvious fact that he knows what he is doing should lead to only one of two conclusions: He either shares their desire to bring down this country or he is the dumbest President to ever occupy the office.

In reading this, you have become aware of what is happening to our national security. You may doubt what I have alleged and you may think that America is too safe with all of its history and military might to be concerned about such dangers. I urge you not to dismiss it, but to research it for yourselves.

For the sake of our country and our children, we cannot allow ourselves to be at blame for the failure to secure our country when our government will not. 

THINKING OUTSIDE OF THE BOX

SPECIAL POST

Remember that highly secret meeting Barrack had with Hillary back in 2008?  Haven't you wondered what was said in there while Bill cooled his heels over at Monica's place?  

Let's face it, everyone is wondering what in the Sam Hell Obama could be up to.  Why would he push himself so very hard in his first 16 months in office is he was really planning on sticking around for two terms?  Could it be that a deal was struck, wherein Obama agreed to bow out and let Hillary run in 2012 if she would support his radical far-left agendas?  

Once passed, you see, it's all but impossible to reverse this legislation Obama has shoved down our throats, and the cause of Socialism would be well-advanced even if they did have to back away from some programs.  Then, after Hillary finishes her two terms in 2020,   the far-left would be in a much better position to come back full-force again and complete their objectives.  

Just a passing thought.  Think about it.  Think outside of the box. 

NAACP STIRS UP RACISM

The NAACP has passed a resolution claiming that Tea Partiers are racists; the resolution was adopted during the NAACP annual convention in Kansas City. The final wording of the resolution won't be released until the NAACP's national board of directors approves it during its meeting in October. But the original called for the NAACP to "educate its membership and the community that this movement is not just about higher taxes and limited government." It said something could evolve "and become more dangerous for that small percentage of people that really think our country has been taken away from them."

Well, I’m a Tea Partier, so that makes me a racist according to the NAACP. After all, it’s all about labels, isn’t it? Find a group of people you don’t like and put a label on them. Call them names. Denigrate them. Marginalize them. Well, it’s too bad, NAACP. You see, Obama has already called me a racist. So have Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton and Nancy Pelosi. So, if you think you’re hot shit because you called me a racist, you’ve got another thing coming. You’re just a Johnny Come Lately.

There’s something you really do need to know, NAACP. Over the last 20 or 30 years, racism in this country really started to die out. Now, you and your political friends have stirred up the embers so much that every time I see a black person, I cringe. That’s right; I no longer assume you’re an average Joe or a nice guy, because I have quit looking at you as being a human being. You have just reminded me of something I had long ago forgotten; you’re black… black as the ace of spades. Thanks for reminding me. 

While you’re at it, do me a favor and go after the Jews. Then, maybe you can take on the Chinks and the goombahs and the spics and the ragheads. It won’t take long for you and your friends to divide this country up more. Is that the game you’re playing, divide and conquer?

Well, let me tell you something. If you live in this country and you believe in this country, then you’re an American and that’s all that matters. But, if you want to go around stirring up shit, then you’re not an American, you’re nothing but a black. I’ll be damned if I will sit still and take the blame for your bull, for your shit disturbing.

If that offends you, go grab some ham hocks and lima beans and get over it. 

ARE WE A NATION OF SHEEP? Or, Are We Ready To Take Our Country Back?

SPECIAL POST

I just heard it a day or so ago a denigration of the “Take Back Our Country” slogan. It came from one of those know-it-all elitist left-wing snobs who thinks he is an all-knowing, all-seeing disciple of the Messiah. The gist was this: It’s not our country to take back. It belongs to them, the all-seers. They have the duty, as disciples, to see that we do not get too fat, use too much salt, burn our meat, have high cholesterol, have children who have not been propagandized, speak our minds or think for ourselves. Therefore, they argue, it is not our country to take back; it’s theirs, so that they can control those things that might have disastrous impacts upon our lives or the lives of the illegal immigrant.

Are we going to continue to let them lead us down a path of sure oblivion, or are we ready to show them whose country this really is? Let that question fester in your mind until November. Nurture it well, because we all need to be madder than hell when we step into the voting booths.

THE RIGHT TO PROTECT YOURSELF

When you sit back and take stock of what this government is trying to do to us, you can’t help but wonder where our country disappeared to. Our government is overtly taking steps to try and prevent us from having any method of self defense against an armed intruder or attack, such as guns and knives.

Down there in Arizona, our government is proactively setting out to keep the state from protecting its citizens against illegals and the problems that illegals bring. In fact, Eric Holder’s reaction to the news that an Arizona sheriff has been overtly threatened with his life by drug runners was to go ahead and file a lawsuit trying to prevent Arizona’s new law to go into effect.

Muslims bombed the World Trade Center twice and Muslims have been directly identified as being involved in many, many other attempts at terrorism in our country and our President has sent word over to NASA that they need to try and get along better with Muslims. How sweet can it get?

Obama wants Fox off the air, as well as anyone who talks badly about his administration. He wants to prevent us from knowing what is going on in our government and he is denying us the right to stand up and protest about it. As he and his cohorts, Pelosi and Reid, bombard the Tea Parties and other concerned citizens with claims of “right wing extremism who are inciting domestic terrorism,” he is also busy rewriting American history to obliterate the events that established a government “of the people, by the people and for the people,” as the bulwark of liberty in the western hemisphere.

Yet, as some great American once said, if we don’t stand up and exercise our God-given rights, we lose them. In the same vein, if we don’t open our eyes and ears and discover what damage our government is doing to us, we lose the right to do so?

We have the right to protect ourselves not only against the violent criminal, but against the assertive Marxists as well. We are not the ones who are to blame for the many assaults on our country and our safety and we have every right to take whatever prudent steps are necessary to protect ourselves, both verbally and physically. If we see danger, we have the right to avert it.

If we see politicians and bureaucrats exposing us to varied dangers, we have the right and the obligation to remove them from office. 

GOD BLESS OUR COUNTRY

I DIDN’T MEAN TO LISTEN TO RUSH, I REALLY DIDN’T

I was in the middle of a Chinese fire drill, scrambling from one town to another to put together last-minute details for a business trip, and I happened to turn on the radio; lo and behold, Rush Limbaugh was on the air. Now, Rush is not my favorite show, by far. He’s right about many things, I will admit, but he’s just too bombastic for me, too narcissistic, if you know what I mean. In those respects, he’s much like Obama. Rush fancies himself as being the God of conservatism in this country and Obama believes that his is the Omnipotent One. I guess they have forgotten about the Unknown Scribbler?

In any event, Rush got onto something. No, it wasn’t a rant. But, he started talking about Obama and his belief that Obama is deliberately sabotaging efforts to stop the oil leak and clean up the Gulf. Don’t know if you know this or not, but they have halted the building of sand bars to keep the oil away from the beaches because some government ninny doesn’t like the source of the sand. Cleanup barges have continuously been prevented from going out to skim oil and someone mentioned that there were other skimming rigs located elsewhere in the country that could come to help and the Administration prevented that move because there “might” be another oil accident somewhere else and those skimmers would be needed there.

Rush went on to suggest that Obama is doing these things deliberately to detract us from the economy, unemployment and the immigration issue, and I agree; never let a good crisis go to waste. In fact, if the crisis gets bad enough, Obama could declare a state of national emergency and glom onto all kinds of power…even suspending the Constitution. In fact, he could manage to get the leak plugged around a month before the election, and then hire 300,000 people to come and clean up the mess. Unemployment would decline, there might be some improvement in the economy and Obama could ride the favorable wave of his "decisive leadership" to rescue his Democrats in Congress.

Would he do such a dastardly thing? Look at some of the many dirty tricks he has pulled so far, including the Health Care debacle; of COURSE he would! In a heartbeat! In fact, he’s already put the word out that he wants to pull the Gulf workers off the job because of the tropical storm. “They could be out two weeks or more,” comes official word from the White House. 

Floating out of the White House gas machine Friday was the word that the Administration is working on a plan to have the President issue an Executive Order declaring amnesty for all illegal aliens. Have you ever noticed how Obama, taking a cue from Clinton, always lets these gaseous bombs waft out on Fridays after everyone has gone home for the weekend?

We really need to start paying closer attention to what this guy is doing. I agree with Rush in this case that Obama has committed far too many bad acts for them to be chalked up to mistakes, stupidity, or anything but the actions of a very shrewd man. Start asking yourself “Why?”

OBAMA'S DYNASTY IS CRUMBLING

General Stanley McChrystal is on his way out after criticizing President Obama in a ROLLING STONES interview. McChrystal was summoned to appear in the White House today to explain his remarks to the effect that he has been left “on the outside” in his dealings with the White House and stated that he had been in the untenable predicament of having to sell “an unsellable position” with respect to troops and the conduct of the war in Afghanistan. Against mounting public pressure, Obama had delayed for months the decision to increase troop levels in Afghanistan while McChrystal had said the United States was in a “no win” situation unless the troops were provided.

McChrystal has apologized to Obama, but has undoubtedly burned his bridges. "I have enormous respect and admiration for President Obama and his national security team, and for the civilian leaders and troops fighting this war and I remain committed to ensuring its successful outcome."

In the meanwhile, White House Budget Director Peter Orszag has announced his resignation effective in July. Orszag has been a key part of Obama's economic team during the passage of the economic stimulus bill and this year's health care reform legislation. He was formerly in charge of the Congressional Budget Office before the CBO provided figures that did not suit Obama’s agenda in getting the stimulus and health care packages passed against the public will.

Rumors are also circulating in Washington that White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel will be resigning after the November elections due to “frustration” with Obama’s inner circle of key advisers. Emanuel has denied the rumors, but word is that he has been set up to be the “fall guy” if Democrats get slaughtered in the elections.

Obama has apparently become disengaged with the many major problems facing the nation at this juncture. He has failed miserably in his handling of the Gulf Oil crisis. He seems insensitive to the growing national immigration issue and to Arizona’s plight in dealing with the crisis. He has given weak response to Iran’s flagrant violations of international pressures against that country’s nuclear ambitions and has been less than effective in dealing with North Korea’s similar programs.

The insurance industry has confirmed that it is increasing health care premiums. New benefits of the health care program kick in now and the companies are seeking to cover the increased costs. Obama summoned key company officials to the White House for an ass-chewing session and threats of industry takeover by the government, a move essentially turning the industry into government run health care. This move is being made amidst revelations that the costs associated with the program are much higher than revealed as it was being shoved down Americans throats and as doctors across the country are refusing to see Medicare patients due to declining Medicare reimbursements.

The economy is not cooperating. On the one hand, Vice-President Biden is claiming that the stimulus plan has worked, but Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac remain buried in a sea of red ink, unemployment is not improving, and the national debt is on the verge of dragging the company into anarchy.

With these problems and more facing the Presidency, there appears to be rampant indecision in the Oval Office and Obama has earned a reputation of being calloused and ambivalent. His polls and the polls of his Congressional lapdogs are sinking so fast that one can only hope and pray that they will land at the bottom of the Gulf and plug the damned hole.
