War Being Waged on The West
9/23/10
That’s right, you heard it, there’s a War Being Waged on The West (Western Civilization, that is), but it’s not by Iran, Pakistan, Syria, Russia or China, this war is being waged by the current United States Federal Government Administration!
Think about it:
Why do you think just about every Democratic Congressman is running away from the “Threatening Three” (Obama, Pelosi and Reid). It’s because they know the people have caught on to their hidden motives / agenda to quash the American way of life – i.e. liberty and freedom to, through capitalism, build a great life for ourselves and our families through a hard, persistent, honest work ethic.
Let’s look at each of the main components of this so-called hidden agenda more carefully:
The Health Care Law: This is (going to be) a multi-trillion dollar effort that will ultimately prove to fail - not by necessity, but by design. It’s been set up that way by the Left Wing Radical extremists that wrote it, to fail so that it needs to be fully transformed into a single payer system – our good ole’ Federal government and this will evolve into ultimate control over our health, and therefore, our lives. Since hardly anyone has read this monmouth monstrosity, no one really knows or realizes that they’ve thrown everything but the kitchen sink into it – some of it actually having to do with health care. You could go on about this instrument of government control in detail, but it would take forever – we’ll see how badly this law starts to effect us all in time as these provisions come to light – and it won’t be pretty (unless, of course, you’re a member of congress, the new Health Care Czar or a union boss).
Financial Reform: What’s “owning” our health without owning our finances – that wouldn’t be any fun. This Financial Reform law is laden with advantages to big (soon-to-be, if not already government controlled) businesses, while, at the same “convenient” time, absolutely crushing small business / the core of capitalism and employment. One of the many hidden provisions within this law is that minorities must be placed before non-minorities whether the financial organization finds them qualified for the open position(s) or not – ridiculous.
Takeovers of Insurance, Auto, Student Loans, etc.:
Power grab after power grab – the takeover of insurance companies is just a temporary thing since the Federal government is determined to changing America's Health Care into a single payer system anyway – which will all but destroy the private sector insurance industry. The auto industry and student loan programs are just two more areas essential to the healthy functioning of the private sector – the progressives can not allow them to go unfettered by government ownership / intervention.
Offshore Drilling Moratorium: This has nothing whatsoever to do with environmental safety or concern, but with additional control over the American people, adding another nail in the coffin of capitalism, and redistribution of wealth – away from America – and to the rest of the world. This is George Soros’ self-admitted life’s ambition – in case you don’t already realize it, Socialist billionaire George Soros is one of Obama’s top (unofficial) advisors who also just happens to be heavily invested in the Brazilian oil company, Petrobras. Speaking of that, were you aware that the Obama administration has given $2 billion (of our tax payer dollars) to Petrobras, a state controlled company where the company’s management reports primarily to the government of Brazil, and then, secondly to the stock holders - referred to as “state capitalism”.
Then our government “invested” (gave) another $2 billion of our hard earned taxpayer dollars to Mexico. In both countries, they will be drilling at over 10,000 feet below the ocean’s surface, which is double to triple the depth of the drilling done by British Petroleum in the Gulf of Mexico. Oh, did I mention, they will be drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, where America has been forbidden to drill through the moratorium – for environmental reasons. As if that’s not enough, Obama wants dozens (actually more) of existing American offshore oil wells plugged up permanently while pulling as many oil lease contracts granted by the Bush Administration in it’s final days as possible. This alone will cost our country tens of millions of dollars. Don’t they see how transparent their attempts to make us more dependent on foreign oil, while at the same time severely damaging our economy are? They pay lip service to energy independence while blocking all practical means of achieving it.
If one can’t see the blatant hypocrisy exhibited here, then one needs to get new glasses! So, this moratorium will kill over 23,000 jobs in the gulf, eat into our already suffering GDP by over 6% - 8%, and cause the majority of offshore drilling oil rigs to migrate to Mexico, Brazil, Venezuela, etc. (you can’t blame them, they go to where the money is – and the government restrictions / regulations aren’t), probably never to return to the US. Guess who will be getting filthy rich from all this (you already know – Soros, Gore, Goldman Sachs, Citibank, etc.), but you know it won’t be the American public, that’s for sure.
All in all, you have to credit these devious Progressives with a well thought out and executed plan to squeeze our country bone dry. You could go on to say that’s a pretty good “CC” (Capitalism Crippler) for the US all the while redistributing wealth everywhere else in the world – except the United States. And, yet another excuse, for the world (Iran, Venezuela and other socialistic / communistic countries) to declare that “Capitalism does not work!” What a crock!!! Of course capitalism doesn’t work when it’s rigged to fail from the get go, which is the Obama Administration’s current undertaking.
Cap & Trade: Since the progressive administration has a sneaking suspicion that they won’t be able to pass this scam of Biblical proportions (carbon credits are essentially trading / buying and selling air) through the congress (which has now essentially been made irrelevant by the developing dictatorship we call the Obama Administration), they will pursue it directly through the use of the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency). Another ruse (similar to the offshore drilling moratorium previously mentioned) based on the feigned concern for our environment (carbon emissions, new and better energy alternatives, which will, by the way, take decades to fully implement), but actually designed to have more control over the American people (small businesses in particular).
How’d you feel if you had to pay triple to quadruple what you’re paying now for electricity and gasoline?
Not extending the Bush tax cuts for the wealthy: You don’t have to be an economist to realize that imposing the largest tax increase in the history of the US on people making over $250,000 per year will absolutely kill any hope of decreasing unemployment and getting us out of this recession – even several government agencies recently came out in favor of extending the Bush tax cuts across the board for everyone.
The Obama administration, although there’s not a real businessman among them, also realizes this – it’s part of their agenda to “step-on-the-throat” of the American economy. Now that everyone, including Democrats, are seeing this as fact, they’re running – and not looking back – from the Obama Administration, who is more than willing to throw anyone and everyone in their way under the bus. Look at Economic Advisers Chairwoman, Christina Romer, having left her job at the beginning of this month, Peter Orszag, Head of the Congressional Budget Office having left in August, Larry Summers now leaving the White House, Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel and David Axelrod, Obama’s closest advisor, both leaving for Chicago in the near future. One has to wonder how long before Tim Geitner runs for the hills? They’re not bailing en masse because things are going well.
You would jump off a sinking ship too, wouldn’t you?
Unemployment: As most are aware, many states are currently “boasting” double digit unemployment figures ranging from 10% - 14% with no sign of easing / hiring in sight, mainly due to the uncertainty created by the Health Care Law and Financial Reform Law – this is not by accident. The only way for the progressives to shoot another arrow into the belly of the private sector is to make sure unemployment stays high and more and more hapless soles begin to have to rely on food stamps, etc.
Right now, over 10 million Americans are using food stamps and it’s projected that that figure will be up as high as 50 million by the middle of the decade at the rate it’s currently increasing. The poverty level is the highest ever in the US with one in seven people considered poor – the poverty level (in 2007) was defined as a family of four living on $20,614 or less per year. Can anyone show me where the summer of recovery came and went to? The progressives live by the fact that in order to control the people, they must make the people dependent on the government for their very survival!
Let’s not forget Obama’s goal of racial division among whites, blacks, Hispanics / Latinos and any other nationality that he could throw into the mix. A country divided is a country weakened and susceptible to conquest – the Progressives are well aware of this fact.
To sum up:
When you dig deep enough (and look closely enough – and don’t – I repeat – don’t listen to the mainstream media spin), there is obviously a concerted effort on the current (Obama) administration’s part to destroy the American way of life / American Dream. As George Soros put it, “It’s now American’s time to be taken down more just than a peg.” Soros (and the Obama administration) want the US on the bottom of the global “totem pole”, while at the same time exporting the lion’s share of our wealth to the rest of the world. They ultimately want a global economy (with no borders – think Arizona) that they (the self-perceived Socialist “intellectuals”) control: “First the United States and then the World!” I believe that’s the old saying, anyway.
Now that American’s are finally waking up to this insidious attempt to ruin the American Dream and the lifestyles that Americans have grown accustomed to (through hard, honest labor), many voters – Republicans, Independents, and, believe it or not, Democrats that realize their way of life is being threatened by the Obama Administration. are joining together to make some real (not fantasy, smoke and mirror) changes that will benefit – and not destroy – our great nation.
November 2nd is the time to do this and our only hope to regain control of capitalism / the free market, our liberty / freedom, and the American Way!
We will not fall divided, because United We Stand!

They Don’t Listen ‘Cause They Don’t Care
They Don’t Listen ‘Cause They Don’t Care
8/19/10
Why doesn’t the government that we elected listen to us? A common call from many Americans.
They Don’t Listen ‘Cause They Don’t Care or, more appropriately “We Don’t Listen ‘Cause We Don’t Care” should be the mantra of the Obama Administration and Congress – if they were to actually be transparent.
Why should they listen –they’re the ruling class and they know what’s best for the unwashed masses. In their eyes, the American public is just too dumb to know what’s good for us, modern day Neanderthals that they are forced to put up with.
Why should they listen? The Democratic Liberals and Progressives consider themselves the intellectual elite who look down upon the people as ignorant peons – nothing more.
We want things like affordable and accessible health care – oh no, that’s only reserved for members of Congress and the socialistic insurance czar, Donald Berwick, who will receive the “Cadillac” insurance plans (along with their crony Union bosses).
Let’s look at the ever growing list:
The withering economy and rising unemployment – During the Obama campaign, the biggest promise was to turn the economy around and decrease unemployment below 8%. Although it’s the number one concern for most Americans, it seems like this has “taken a back seat” to just about every new issue that arises.
Why aren’t they listening to us – ‘cause they don’t care.
Health Care – Well over 65% of the American public did want Health Care reform, but not government controlled – and mandated – health care coverage. We also didn’t want the government to take over the insurance industry, which is essentially what they’ve done. Still, over 60% of the people want the government health care law repealed because we’re now seeing premiums increasing significantly and know the quality of care will decrease significantly.
Why aren’t they listening to us – ‘cause they don’t care.
Takeover of Banks, Auto Industry, Student Loans and implementation of Financial Reform Law - Americans didn't want it, but it too was simply forced upon us.
Why aren’t they listening to us – ‘cause they don’t care.
Stimulus Plan – Most Americans were against this poor use of money, and we were right – the government shelled out almost a trillion dollars and hardly created any private sector jobs (oh yeah, they created plenty of needless, highly paid government jobs, but that’s not going to help our ailing economy).
Why aren’t they listening to us – ‘cause they don’t care.
Out of control spending – A large and growing number of Americans know that this rampant borrowing and money printing is getting completely away from us. We’re at over 13 ½ trillion and increasing literally by the second. What does the government do – they continue to borrow, print more money and spend, spend, spend.
The "euphemism" for what Bernanke / the Fed is now doing is known Quantitative Easing. This is where the government buys government securities from the market which in turn increases the money supply by flooding banks and other financial institutions with capital in order to try to promote increased lending / liquidity. The problem with this, is that it only serves to devalue the dollar - which could cause a currency collapse, and, once the money is "unleashed" into the economy, will inevitably result in rampant inflation! Too many dollars chasing too few goods and services = INFLATION.
Why aren’t they listening to us – ‘cause they don’t care.
Taxes – Non-extension of the Bush tax cuts, which will ultimately result in the biggest tax increase in our history. This will affect everyone – not just those making over $250,000 per year – everyone. Then there’s the 1% transaction tax that they’re pushing – doesn’t sound like a lot, but once this tax is instituted, they’ll have the ability (and motivation) to increase it rapidly. Value added tax / VAT – a tax on consumption – on everything you buy (it’s not here yet, but you can “bet your bottom dollar” it will be). The Estate tax / death tax – your survivors will have to give the government between 40 – 60% of your estate. America cannot afford these kind of taxes, especially with impending inflation – and the government knows it.
Why aren’t they listening to us – ‘cause they don’t care.
Immigration – Have you ever heard of the Federal government suing one of our states for trying to do a job that the Feds should be doing, but will not do. Over 70% of the American public sides with Governor Brewer in Arizona. Despite numerous protests from the people, the government forges on with their absurd law suit.
Why aren’t they listening to us – ‘cause they don’t care.
Offshore Drilling – One mistake, albeit tragic, out of tens of thousands of offshore oil well drilling over the past decades and the federal government wants to institute a six month blanket moratorium on offshore oil drilling. And don’t think for a second, if they have their way, this moratorium won't last much longer than just six months. The public has protested loudly – the main stream liberally slanted media, of course, completely ignored these protests. This moratorium will kill over 6% of our GDP, cost over 20,000 jobs and 30% of the income in the gulf, while at the same time, making the US more dependent on America hating foreign oil producers. This would hurt our already hurting economy big time. We won the first attempt at the moratorium, but the Federal government is now trying a different angle.
Why aren’t they listening to us – ‘cause they don’t care.
Cap & Trade – This proposed law (scam of Biblical proportions) will serve to vastly increase energy costs for the American public – consumers and private sector businesses alike, while making a handful of corrupt backers of this law very wealthy and more powerful, hence more capable of retaining power and control. We have begged them to drop this – the Senate shot it down earlier this year – but Prince Harry Reid vows to continue to try to get it passed next year.
Why aren’t they listening to us – ‘cause they don’t care.
Building a mosque by ground zero – The biggest attack on US soil in history, costing thousands of American and foreign lives is being used by the “moderate” Muslims (quotes are used around moderate because these are simply radical extremists in “sheep’s clothing”) to build a tribute / shrine to their perceived victory over the United States. This is spitting in the eye of all Americans and especially those who lost loved ones in that infamous attack on our country. The supporters of this travesty say it is to create unity and healing – it’s simply emotionally crushing the family and friends of the victims and insulting to their memory. Former Mayor Giuliani says a proposed project for an Islamic center and mosque near Ground Zero is creating more division, anger and hatred. He continues to say that if the center’s leader Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf was really committed to healing and bonding, he would build this center and mosques elsewhere.
If he does go through with this, he is not a healer, he’s a warrior. This is a major “dividing point” in America and the biggest issue in the media today – over 70% of all Americans (not just New Yorkers) do NOT want this mosque built two blocks away from Ground Zero, but the federal government supports it. In fact, Nancy Pelosi is threatening to investigate the funding of those that oppose the building of this mosque – how do you think that makes the surviving family, friend, first responders, etc. feel? On the other hand, they don’t want to investigate who is funding this $100 million dollar insult of a project, but are spending $16,000 of our taxpayer dollars for this radical Iman Rauf to gather support (and raise more funding dollars, despite what he says) in the Muslim world – preposterous!
Why aren’t they listening to us – ‘cause they don’t care.
At this point, one might wonder: Then what do they care about? That’s, unfortunately, a very easy answer. What this administration cares about is:
-Staying in power
-Dividing the people of America, thus making them easier to “conquer” – Divide and Conquer
-Ruling, not governing, the American people
-Creating a police state where they “make up the rules as they go” with no constraints whatsoever
-Making Congress irrelevant (that’s already essentially been accomplished)
-Penalizing honest productivity, which, by the way, is what created this once great country and economy
-Encouraging dependence on the rapidly growing federal government
-Controlling every aspect of the human experience – social, financial and liberty
-Transforming our country into a Socialist / Communist society
This administration is trying to condition / train the public to be capable to “think the unthinkable” – that’s the ruse. Make this outrageous, radical agenda become so commonplace that the public just throws up their hands and decides: That’s just the way it is.
We, as Americans, cannot let this happen – get out on November 2nd and let this Socialist ruling class government know that they will not get away with this – we are not stupid, and thanks only to conservative radio and TV, we are no longer uninformed.
We will not fall divided, because United We Stand!

Just Say NO
Just Say NO
8/4/10
Just Say NO to the police state that the Obama administration wants to impose on the American people – against our collective will.
The “Show Me” state (Missouri) showed us how it’s done. Over 70% of the citizens of the state of Missouri voted against the federal mandate to purchase federal health care insurance. Missouri voters' overwhelming opposition to requiring nearly all Americans to buy health insurance puts one of the least popular parts of President Barack Obama's health care overhaul law back in the political crosshairs and will serve to increase motivation for others all over the country that oppose it to get out to the polls on November 2nd. This will inevitably lead to another law suit against the Federal government and their health care law.
There are now 21 states (and counting) getting involved in fighting the federal health care law. Yesterday, Judge Henry Hudson, who had written a 32-page opinion saying that the law “radically changes the landscape of health insurance coverage in America.” has decided Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli can sue the federal government over health care reform. According to Judge Hudson, the law suit “raises a host of complex constitutional issues”; the notion that the government’s authority could include “the regulation of a person’s decision not to purchase a product” was new to the federal courts, the judge concluded, and so the state’s protest could not be dismissed outright as desired by the federal government. The Virginia case not only wants to repeal the health care law, but to modify the Commerce Clause altogether as to avoid future abuse of this clause.
Also, we have Van Irion, a Tennessee Constitutional attorney, who has initiated a Class Action Suit over the constitutionality of the federally controlled health care law. When Mr. Irion tried to hand deliver the petition, signed by of over 25,000 concerned American citizens, Nancy Pelosi laughed at him, Harry Reid was outright rude to him and the White House would not let him bring the petition inside.
I’m no kid – I’ve been around a few years – but I never remember so many lawsuits against our own Federal government.
Take the Arizona sheriff who said: “Arizona isn’t only fighting the illegal aliens and drug cartels from Mexico, but we’re also fighting the United States government.” You know, the United States government - the ones that are supposed to protect the states from, in this particular case, the “invasion” of illegal’s from Mexico, which include many drug, human and weapons smugglers, thugs and murderers.
Back to the health issue, the federal government is absolutely trying to quietly / insidiously turn us into a police state – or worse yet – a Sharia state. Also, on a somewhat separate note (speaking of Sharia law), the building of the mosque near ground zero in NYC should be a “Yes / No” question put on the ballot in New York so the people could decide whether it should be built in that area. This way, it gives an “out” to spineless politicians such as Andrew Cuomo and Michael Bloomberg. At a recent press conference White House Press Secretary, Robert Gibbs stated that the mosque issue was a local issue (meaning New York City) and that the White House had no comment. A local issue, huh, tell that to the families of the 3,000 people from all over the country and world that perished on September 11th by the hand of radical Islamists. I somehow don’t think they would understand or agree with Mr. Gibbs about it being a local issue. Also another vote is being demanded from the Historical Society / committee of New York (aka Mike’s tool box) due to the fact that the building that they want to tear down is over 150 years old and was hit by a piece of one of the planes that crashed into one of the twin towers. It appears that this committee had made up it’s mind before actually reviewing all the facts – another surprise.
Back to Just Say NO to a police state. A police state is a state / country in which the government exercises rigid and repressive controls over the social, economic and political life of the population. A police state typically exhibits elements of totalitarianism and social control, and there is usually little or no distinction between the law and the exercise of political power by the executive {branch}. Notice that since the Obama administration has now made our Congress irrelevant, the executive branch of government now decides which laws it wants passed without a constitutional vote or thorough review of the proposed bills by Congress. Have you ever heard of a Dictator needing to consult with a Congressional body?
So we have three forms of control in a police state: Social Control, Economic Control, and Political Control.
Let’s take them one at a time:
BMI (Body Mass Index). The government wants to impose a penalty (although they term it a tax) on parents whose children don’t live up to the pre-established government standards of the “proper / ideal” weight for the child’s height. Also, not allowing people in San Francisco to purchase a Pepsi Cola from a vending machine located on federal property. Then there’s the elimination of pet stores in San Francisco. The list goes on and on and is growing daily. That is social control.
Financial Reform Law. It passed without the people getting to review it and no one in Congress read it either. It imposes very strict limits on the financial industry, of course, favoring the biggest players / political contributors to the Democratic party and hurts / penalizes the smaller players in the financial industry.
Also look at the usurping of the insurance industry, most of the automobile industry and student loans.
That is economic control.
Elimination of Bush tax cut extension. Not extending the Bush tax cuts for people making over $250,000 per year. First off, by not extending these tax cuts, everyone will end up paying more income tax – not just those making more than $250,000 per year. It will also increase the capital gains and dividends tax causing uncertainty in the markets and further damaging an already hurting economy. Think about it, this is the one and only campaign promise that Obama is keeping – do you think it’s a coincidence that it is the one that will hurt small business and the American economy the most – of course not – it’s quite purposeful. Look at the health care reform law and the attempted Cap and Trade bill (discussed in earlier postings).
These are attempts at political control.
The main stream press won’t tell you – they’re the administration’s puppets (just as the Obama administration are the puppets of George Soros). Again, they (liberally slanted main stream media) never mention the major protests against the building of the mosque near ground zero as well as never mentioning the major protests in the gulf over the absolutely unnecessary six month blanket moratorium on offshore drilling – not a word. The moratorium will only destroy approximately 30% of the local economy of the gulf and put over 20,000 people out of work, possibly permanently. But again, the main stream media has no comment.
If it wasn’t for conservative radio and TV, the American public would have no idea what this manipulative, scheming and deceptive federal government was trying to pull over on us. They call what they’re doing transformation, when in reality, it is the attempted elimination of capitalism and implementation of Socialism / public dependence on a big and growing federal government.
The federal government (mainly the Progressive “arm”) truly believes that the American people are stupid and cannot take care of ourselves, therefore we need guidance – no, not guidance – orders / mandates from the federal government what to do, how to do it and when they want it done. Once again, we must Just Say NO to the police state which is silently, but surely, being imposed upon the citizens of the United States of America.
If this health care plan is so good for us, why does the Congress get their own separate (and far superior) health care plan? Also why does newly appointed health care czar, Donald Berwick, get his own “luxury” health care plan while he preaches of the “great advantages” of socialized medicine?
Do you really think this health care law is for the good of the American public – of course not. It’s the ultimate power grab by the federal government (if they control your health, they control your and your loved one’s lives).
It’s not by accident – they want to control our Lives, Liberties and our Pursuit of Happiness. They currently have our lives – unless this awful health care reform law is repealed, are taking hold of our pursuit of happiness utilizing the uneven / deliberately slanted Financial Reform law, and now, they’re shooting for our Liberties. They are now pursuing telling us what to eat, again, under the guise of their “genuine concern” for the American public - that is unheard of in a free society – which we used to be.
Think about it, it’s the perfect ruse, feign concern for the American public, while insidiously taking away our Liberties with the aid of their silent ally, the main stream media!
We, as the American people, must Just Say NO to these Progressive Socialists / Communists at the polls on November 2nd.
We really have no choice at this point if we want to keep the American that we’ve grown to know and love.
We will not fall divided, because United We Stand.
8/4/10
Just Say NO to the police state that the Obama administration wants to impose on the American people – against our collective will.
The “Show Me” state (Missouri) showed us how it’s done. Over 70% of the citizens of the state of Missouri voted against the federal mandate to purchase federal health care insurance. Missouri voters' overwhelming opposition to requiring nearly all Americans to buy health insurance puts one of the least popular parts of President Barack Obama's health care overhaul law back in the political crosshairs and will serve to increase motivation for others all over the country that oppose it to get out to the polls on November 2nd. This will inevitably lead to another law suit against the Federal government and their health care law.
There are now 21 states (and counting) getting involved in fighting the federal health care law. Yesterday, Judge Henry Hudson, who had written a 32-page opinion saying that the law “radically changes the landscape of health insurance coverage in America.” has decided Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli can sue the federal government over health care reform. According to Judge Hudson, the law suit “raises a host of complex constitutional issues”; the notion that the government’s authority could include “the regulation of a person’s decision not to purchase a product” was new to the federal courts, the judge concluded, and so the state’s protest could not be dismissed outright as desired by the federal government. The Virginia case not only wants to repeal the health care law, but to modify the Commerce Clause altogether as to avoid future abuse of this clause.
Also, we have Van Irion, a Tennessee Constitutional attorney, who has initiated a Class Action Suit over the constitutionality of the federally controlled health care law. When Mr. Irion tried to hand deliver the petition, signed by of over 25,000 concerned American citizens, Nancy Pelosi laughed at him, Harry Reid was outright rude to him and the White House would not let him bring the petition inside.
I’m no kid – I’ve been around a few years – but I never remember so many lawsuits against our own Federal government.
Take the Arizona sheriff who said: “Arizona isn’t only fighting the illegal aliens and drug cartels from Mexico, but we’re also fighting the United States government.” You know, the United States government - the ones that are supposed to protect the states from, in this particular case, the “invasion” of illegal’s from Mexico, which include many drug, human and weapons smugglers, thugs and murderers.
Back to the health issue, the federal government is absolutely trying to quietly / insidiously turn us into a police state – or worse yet – a Sharia state. Also, on a somewhat separate note (speaking of Sharia law), the building of the mosque near ground zero in NYC should be a “Yes / No” question put on the ballot in New York so the people could decide whether it should be built in that area. This way, it gives an “out” to spineless politicians such as Andrew Cuomo and Michael Bloomberg. At a recent press conference White House Press Secretary, Robert Gibbs stated that the mosque issue was a local issue (meaning New York City) and that the White House had no comment. A local issue, huh, tell that to the families of the 3,000 people from all over the country and world that perished on September 11th by the hand of radical Islamists. I somehow don’t think they would understand or agree with Mr. Gibbs about it being a local issue. Also another vote is being demanded from the Historical Society / committee of New York (aka Mike’s tool box) due to the fact that the building that they want to tear down is over 150 years old and was hit by a piece of one of the planes that crashed into one of the twin towers. It appears that this committee had made up it’s mind before actually reviewing all the facts – another surprise.
Back to Just Say NO to a police state. A police state is a state / country in which the government exercises rigid and repressive controls over the social, economic and political life of the population. A police state typically exhibits elements of totalitarianism and social control, and there is usually little or no distinction between the law and the exercise of political power by the executive {branch}. Notice that since the Obama administration has now made our Congress irrelevant, the executive branch of government now decides which laws it wants passed without a constitutional vote or thorough review of the proposed bills by Congress. Have you ever heard of a Dictator needing to consult with a Congressional body?
So we have three forms of control in a police state: Social Control, Economic Control, and Political Control.
Let’s take them one at a time:
BMI (Body Mass Index). The government wants to impose a penalty (although they term it a tax) on parents whose children don’t live up to the pre-established government standards of the “proper / ideal” weight for the child’s height. Also, not allowing people in San Francisco to purchase a Pepsi Cola from a vending machine located on federal property. Then there’s the elimination of pet stores in San Francisco. The list goes on and on and is growing daily. That is social control.
Financial Reform Law. It passed without the people getting to review it and no one in Congress read it either. It imposes very strict limits on the financial industry, of course, favoring the biggest players / political contributors to the Democratic party and hurts / penalizes the smaller players in the financial industry.
Also look at the usurping of the insurance industry, most of the automobile industry and student loans.
That is economic control.
Elimination of Bush tax cut extension. Not extending the Bush tax cuts for people making over $250,000 per year. First off, by not extending these tax cuts, everyone will end up paying more income tax – not just those making more than $250,000 per year. It will also increase the capital gains and dividends tax causing uncertainty in the markets and further damaging an already hurting economy. Think about it, this is the one and only campaign promise that Obama is keeping – do you think it’s a coincidence that it is the one that will hurt small business and the American economy the most – of course not – it’s quite purposeful. Look at the health care reform law and the attempted Cap and Trade bill (discussed in earlier postings).
These are attempts at political control.
The main stream press won’t tell you – they’re the administration’s puppets (just as the Obama administration are the puppets of George Soros). Again, they (liberally slanted main stream media) never mention the major protests against the building of the mosque near ground zero as well as never mentioning the major protests in the gulf over the absolutely unnecessary six month blanket moratorium on offshore drilling – not a word. The moratorium will only destroy approximately 30% of the local economy of the gulf and put over 20,000 people out of work, possibly permanently. But again, the main stream media has no comment.
If it wasn’t for conservative radio and TV, the American public would have no idea what this manipulative, scheming and deceptive federal government was trying to pull over on us.

Ashamed of America – Ashamed of our Allies
Ashamed of America – Ashamed of our Allies
7/28/10
Look at the attempted construction of the mosque at ground zero – the people are screaming “No No NO!!!”, but not a word is mentioned by the Administration (both in Washington or out of New York City mayor Bloomberg’s office), and the main stream media is, of course, completely silent about the public’s protests. Nothing at all was televised on the big three (CBS, NBC or ABC) about the huge protest in NYC over this issue.
These extreme leftists want to encourage Sharia law in the United States, for reasons of freedom of religion, but mainly because they have no understanding of Sharia law. Essentially under this law, there are a group of “Haram” offenses which carry with them severe punishments. These include pre-marital sexual intercourse, sex by divorced persons, post-marital sex, adultery, false accusation of unlawful intercourse, drinking alcohol, theft, and highway robbery. Haram sexual offenses can carry a sentence of stoning to death or severe flogging – horribly painful ways to die. Yet, these extreme left liberals (including our administration) are welcoming Sharia law into our country with open arms. Do you think that a Church or Temple would be allowed in an Islamic country? Doubt it strongly.
Then there’s NASA: At the beginning of this year, Mr. Obama gutted NASA and cut a deal with Charles Bolden, in order to get his health care reform passed – people had a fit. The deal was that all the greatest science minds in the USA were going to pull it all together and “engage much more with predominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math and engineering.” That will surely make the radical extremist Muslims reconsider their purpose in life (and death) – to murder as many American’s as physically possible. Yeah, I’m sure it will play out that way.
This administration has to be commended – they have reached new levels of complete crazy. In comparison, Jimmy Carter, dealing with alien abductions and Billy beer and Bill Clinton dating a cigar pales in comparison.
No, now we have NASA (National Aeronautics and SPACE Administration) dropping space exploration to prove global warming exists while, at the same time, stroking the science egos of a religion that has killed all their science researchers! No administration in American history even came close to how delusional this administration is – it’s truly scary.
Then we have Obama giving Israel “lip service” – his insincerity when meeting with Netanyahu is one of the few transparencies of Obama’s true beliefs. Under intense US pressure, President Obama extracted a guarantee from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Jewish construction in most of the West Bank and eastern Jerusalem will be frozen for months to come, according to a senior Palestinian Authority negotiator. Obama restricts Israel while at the same time giving the Palestinians full reign to do as they please.
Then there’s the UK, they want to cut the spending spree (out of sheer necessity) that has put their economy in peril, but Obama has been lecturing them to keep spending. Also, the UK has openly admitted (they had no choice) that their socialized medical program has failed, but in that way, Obama wants to emulate them. It just doesn’t make sense – unless he has a hidden (not-so-hidden) agenda – ya think? Oh, and on a side note, the new health care czar, Donald Berwick, made sure his personal health care package was fully intact, well before accepting his appointment from Obama. You think it might be a little different than what the American public will receive health care-wise?
Jumping to the Arizona lawsuit: the delusional administration is saying that the Arizona law would offend Ecuador and Mexico and hurt our foreign policy – that, without question, is the biggest example of unabated hypocrisy ever displayed by a federal government!
This administration is suing AZ for attempting to do a job it will not – i.e. protecting the people of Arizona and other parts of the US from murderous thugs coming in illegally from Mexico.
Then they’re disrespecting our long time allies Israel and the UK, while, at the same time, want to allow a mosque to be built at ground zero – where a military monument should be erected. Then they (the administration) want to use our greatest scientific minds to stroke the egos of a group of people (the radical extremists – not, by any means, all Muslims), whose sole purpose of existence is to kill us.
Lastly, the constant apologizing to the world for America (and our allies) – have you ever, ever in your life seen an American president do such a thing. Of course not.
A president is elected to proudly lead our great country, not put it down and be ashamed of it.
A president is not supposed to bow to foreign powers and show full respect for our enemies, but this president does.
Never before has most of the global community laughed at America – until now.
Our enemies think of America as indecisive and weak, thanks to this president and this administration.
They will, in time, take advantage of this by initiating another attack on American soil – and it will occur in the near future at the rate and direction that we’re heading.
One starts to wonder why none of these actions make sense – they don’t – unless they were being done for the sole purpose of hurting the United States – then, these seemingly insane actions make perfect sense.
At the risk of sounding repetitive: we must vote this Progressive / Socialist Congress out this November 2nd and take the growing unlimited power away from the Executive branch of government if we don’t want to live in a future police state (which is fully and clearly the current administration’s ultimate goal).
We will not fall divided, because United We Stand!

Tax ‘em ‘till They Drop
Tax ‘em ‘till They Drop
7/26/10
Tax ‘em ‘till They Drop – that’s precisely the plan of the Obama regime.
Why?
Because it serves several purposes.
Obviously it’s to redistribute wealth, they pretty much openly come out and say that, but they’re not Socialists, yeah, uh huh.
During his campaign, Mr. Obama promised no tax increases for people earning under $250,000 per year. Now, even many Democrats are standing up and saying they want to extend the Bush tax cuts, needless to say, the GOP is unanimously behind that. That simply won’t happen under this Administration, whose core belief is to penalize the rich for the benefit of everyone else.
Just about everyone agrees, increasing taxes during a weak and weakening economy is a recipe for financial disaster. But like the now irrelevant Congress, nothing matters in a government "Of, For and By Obama".
Next, we have the impending Value Added Tax (VAT). The VAT is an “indirect tax” because it is a tax based on spending / consumption. In the UK, it’s currently up to 17.5% on just about all purchases. This is a tax on everybody on almost every purchase they make, including vastly higher energy costs (if Cap & Trade eventually passes). All that, combined with impending inflation, translates into: higher prices resulting in higher VAT tax revenues.
Don’t forget, this VAT will be in addition to the already increased income and capital gains tax.
But, wait, the government is going to refund some of that VAT tax to everyone earning less than $250,000 per year. Yeah, that will be easy – it will only require tens of thousands of extra highly paid federal government workers / administrators (salaries compliments of the US taxpayer). It will most definitely create an administrative nightmare and will serve to vastly increase the degree of government’s control and power over the people – just what the Socialistic doctor ordered.
Okay, so now, the Obama regime will raise income and capital gains taxes, implement the VAT tax and collect a whole lot of tax revenue. Oh, and when (not if) there’s inflation (which there will be – discussed below), the prices of all consumption items will obviously rise, hence more VAT tax revenue.
Then we have the reinstatement of the Estate tax (aka “Death tax”). Nothing is certain but death and paying taxes after death. To see what a chunk it taxes of one’s estate, look at the Steinbrenner example. Had the owner of the New York Yankees not died this year, his family would have owed the government an additional $500 million in Estate tax!
Here’s another new one: It has recently come out that the government is planning to impose a tax (penalty fee) on parents who allow their children to get too heavy if the children’s height to weight ratio (BMI / Body Mass Index) exceeds the established federal government standards. No, we’re not being turned into a “police state”, right???
But, you say, the federal government will use all that extra tax revenue to pay down the national debt. That’s a good one – the federal government has no intention of paying off our national debt.
Do you actually think that’s what this spendaholic federal government is going to do with the all that extra money, of course not. They will simply create more entitlement programs (increasing public dependence on the government / Socialist control), and what they can’t give away with entitlements, they’ll build bridges and highways that go nowhere (lined with $10,000 a piece roadside signs), test the effect of cocaine on caterpillars, see what diets work best for house cats, study the mating habits of the Tanzanian Wildabeast, etc. You know exactly what I’m referring to – they’ll probably appoint a new federal government commission to brainstorm on more absurd ways to waste our tax dollars.
This all will serve to increase our mountainous national debt. Do you see where this is heading?
Many of the financial commentators on TV are now saying that this Administration has no idea how the economy works or what’s good for it. They go on to say the Administration doesn’t know what it’s doing – that’s where I beg to differ – they know exactly what they’re doing! They are trying to kill the American way of life – plain and simple.
The main man that controls Obama and his Administration, George Soros, told Australia 's national newspaper The Australian, "America , as the center of the globalized financial markets, is sucking up the savings of the world. This is now over. The game is out," he said, adding that the time has come for "a very serious adjustment" in American's consumption habits. He implied that he was the one with the power to bring this about." He concluded with saying: "World financial crisis is "stimulating" and "in a way, the culmination of my life's work."
The only solution to eliminate a debt we could in no way ever pay off is to inflate the debt, making money worth less / worthless. What can the people use as a store of value – you guessed it – gold. Oh, did you know that the government health care reform law contains a clause buried deep in the bowels of this law, which requires a tax on gold and silver? I bet you didn’t – wondering why a tax on gold and silver is contained / hidden in a health care reform law – I am. Maybe that’s one of the many reasons the Administration claims they had not read the bill before it was passed into law – they didn’t want subtle (and irrelevant) tidbits like this coming to light before the bill was passed.
Back to the actual size of the Federal Debt:
Officially recognized national debt - $13.2 trillion
Unfunded national obligations of Medicare, Social Security, and government pensions - $108 trillion
US Federal deficit - $1.6 trillion
Cumulative deficits over the next ten years - $9 trillion
Debt owed to foreign investors - $3.5 trillion
Health Care Reform Law - $1 trillion (minimum – probably considerably more when it’s all said and done).
Grand Total: $136 Trillion!!!
If the US paid $100 million per day, starting today, it would take more than 3,450 years before the total government debts and obligations are paid off!
Oh, but the main stream media never mentions that – another surprise.
Back to extending the Bush tax cuts - the Obama Administration can’t have that:
Wealthier people create jobs – jobs improve the economy and generate cash from productivity (not borrowing or printing) – cash can be used to pay down the unbelievably huge national debt – thus again helping the US and global economy. To quote a former president: “Not gonna happen”.
Tax and Spend has never worked – ever – anywhere. It’s not going to work now. Increased income and capital gains taxes, a Value Added Tax combined with impending huge inflation (which will make the Great Inflation of the mid 1970’s to the early 1980’s look like a “day at the beach”) and a declining economy coupled with increasing unemployment is a sure recipe to bring America to it’s knees!
If you don’t think that that is the Obama Administration’s intention, think again!
To expand on the inevitable approaching inflation that our nation is going to see, look back at The Great Inflation’s worst period (1976 – 1981) when the Monetary Base increased by 13% annually, which, when compounded, came to 71% over that 5 year period!
Today, the inflation picture is much worse in terms of magnitude. Not only have we built up massive deficits (partially because of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan), but we are attempting to recover from the worst financial crisis in history. The US has, within the last decade, flipped from AAA-rated lenders to sub-prime borrowers.
Again, all of this planned economic destruction of the United States is now coming to the surface and the American public is waking up – just in time, I might add.
Initially, it was only a handful of us that saw this coming – now many, many more Americans (Republicans, Independents and even many Democrats) are observing what is being thrust upon our great country and we will not and cannot allow it.
We must, as Americans that love our great country, stomp down the attempted Socialist takeover of our country like one would stomp down a fire that very well could rage out of control if not stopped. The mid-terms on November 2, 2010 really is our last and only chance!
We will not fall divided, because United We Stand!

The main man that controls Obama and his Administration, George Soros, told Australia 's national newspaper The Australian, "America , as the center of the globalized financial markets, is sucking up the savings of the world. This is now over. The game is out," he said, adding that the time has come for "a very serious adjustment" in American's consumption habits. He implied that he was the one with the power to bring this about." He concluded with saying: "World financial crisis is "stimulating" and "in a way, the culmination of my life's work."
The only solution to eliminate a debt we could in no way ever pay off is to inflate the debt, making money worth less / worthless. What can the people use as a store of value – you guessed it – gold. Oh, did you know that the government health care reform law contains a clause buried deep in the bowels of this law, which requires a tax on gold and silver? I bet you didn’t – wondering why a tax on gold and silver is contained / hidden in a health care reform law – I am. Maybe that’s one of the many reasons the Administration claims they had not read the bill before it was passed into law – they didn’t want subtle (and irrelevant) tidbits like this coming to light before the bill was passed.
Back to the actual size of the Federal Debt:
Officially recognized national debt - $13.2 trillion
Unfunded national obligations of Medicare, Social Security, and government pensions - $108 trillion
US Federal deficit - $1.6 trillion
Cumulative deficits over the next ten years - $9 trillion
Debt owed to foreign investors - $3.5 trillion
Health Care Reform Law - $1 trillion (minimum – probably considerably more when it’s all said and done).
Grand Total: $136 Trillion!!!
If the US paid $100 million per day, starting today, it would take more than 3,450 years before the total government debts and obligations are paid off!
Oh, but the main stream media never mentions that – another surprise.
Back to extending the Bush tax cuts - the Obama Administration can’t have that:
Wealthier people create jobs – jobs improve the economy and generate cash from productivity (not borrowing or printing) – cash can be used to pay down the unbelievably huge national debt – thus again helping the US and global economy. To quote a former president: “Not gonna happen”.
Tax and Spend has never worked – ever – anywhere. It’s not going to work now. Increased income and capital gains taxes, a Value Added Tax combined with impending huge inflation (which will make the Great Inflation of the mid 1970’s to the early 1980’s look like a “day at the beach”) and a declining economy coupled with increasing unemployment is a sure recipe to bring America to it’s knees!
If you don’t think that that is the Obama Administration’s intention, think again!
To expand on the inevitable approaching inflation that our nation is going to see, look back at The Great Inflation’s worst period (1976 – 1981) when the Monetary Base increased by 13% annually, which, when compounded, came to 71% over that 5 year period!
Today, the inflation picture is much worse in terms of magnitude. Not only have we built up massive deficits (partially because of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan), but we are attempting to recover from the worst financial crisis in history. The US has, within the last decade, flipped from AAA-rated lenders to sub-prime borrowers.
Again, all of this planned economic destruction of the United States is now coming to the surface and the American public is waking up – just in time, I might add.
Initially, it was only a handful of us that saw this coming – now many, many more Americans (Republicans, Independents and even many Democrats) are observing what is being thrust upon our great country and we will not and cannot allow it.
We must, as Americans that love our great country, stomp down the attempted Socialist takeover of our country like one would stomp down a fire that very well could rage out of control if not stopped. The mid-terms on November 2, 2010 really is our last and only chance!
We will not fall divided, because United We Stand!

Cap & Trade Bill Capped
Today’s vote down in the Senate of the Cap & Trade Bill shows that there is still some hope for our country.
Prince Harry Reid and Mr. Obama were not able to convince the Senate to ram another bill down the public’s throat!
Cap and trade is an administrative approach used to control pollution by providing economic incentives for achieving reductions in the emissions of pollutants. Despite House Energy and Commerce Chairman Henry Waxman's many payoffs to Members, rural and Blue Dog Democrats have remained wary of voting for a bill that will impose crushing costs on their home-district businesses and consumers.
This bill is simply a veiled attempt to raise taxes, vastly increase energy and gasoline prices for individual and business consumers, facilitate the loss of well over a million jobs, increase the total expenditures for imported oil by nearly $737 billion, and cut GDP by $5.2 trillion between 2012 and 2035.
The hit to GDP is the real threat in this bill. The whole point of cap and trade is to hike the price of electricity and gas so that Americans will use less. These higher prices will show up not just in electricity bills or at the gas station but in every manufactured good, from food to cars. Even as Democrats have promised that this cap-and-trade legislation won't pinch wallets, behind the scenes they've acknowledged the energy price tsunami that is coming.
Consumers will cut back on spending, which in turn will cut back on production, which results in fewer jobs created or higher unemployment. Some companies will instead move their operations overseas, with the same result. If you wondered why Van Jones had stated that “The passage of the Cap & Trade bill will accelerate the decline of capitalism”, now you know why.
Britain's Taxpayer Alliance estimates the average family there is paying nearly $1,300 a year in green taxes for carbon-cutting programs in effect only a few years.
Americans should know that those Members who vote for this climate bill are voting for what is likely to be the biggest tax in American history. Even Democrats can't repeal that reality.
After the sham of a Health Care bill became law and now the Financial Reform bill having just been signed into law (helping the big banks, while killing the small business competition in the financial industry), Cap & Trade is the equivalent of the last punch in the US economy’s solar plexus before the Progressive Liberals are (hopefully) ousted from Congress in November of this year.
It’s slow, but sure – the American Public is beginning to open it’s eyes to what this Administration is trying to pull over on the citizens of the United States. Despite the liberally slanted main stream media’s constant attempt to hide the truth from the public (NBC and CNBC are almost completed controlled by the Washington liberal administration), Americans have grown more distrustful of the Obama Administration’s hidden agendas and the “For Obama, By Obama” agenda that has become commonplace.
A rapidly growing number of people are calling for Obama’s Impeachment and three term US Congressman, Tom Tancredo, is even saying that Obama is more of a threat to our country than Al-Quada! He goes on to say that Obama is a committed ideologue whose only desire is to transform / destroy America while attacking and ignoring our Constitution every chance he gets. An ideologue is someone who is dedicated to a certain way of thinking, whether it is political, philosophical or religious in nature in a nearly fanatical way. This type of individual can be very difficult to deal with. Look at Michelle Obama’s statement “This is the first time in my life that I’ve been proud to be an American”. Do you think listening to Jeremiah Wright for over 20 years has rubbed off on the Obamas?
Mr. Tancredo concludes by saying that Al-Quada is trying to destroy America from the outside, Obama is doing it from the inside with the money and influence of George Soros, among others.
The passage of the government run health care, financial reform, taking control of the auto and insurance industries, not extending the Bush tax cuts, and doing anything and everything except working on improving our economy and not dealing with rising unemployment is all part of this Administration’s attempt to annihilate capitalism and transform our country into a welfare state dependent on and controlled by the large and growing federal government (aka – The Ruling Class).
Despite strong bipartisan opposition, Reid said they would forge on with this bill after the November elections.
Now that the Administration is seeing that the American people are not the ignorant masses that they perceive us to be and in need of their “direction”, they are running scared – hence attempting to yet again shift attention away from this using unfounded racial accusations. Now that the majority of Americans are waking up to this fact, we will be in a position to peacefully change it in the polls this coming November, and hopefully once again thwart Reid’s attempt to pass this bill in the Senate next year.

Keep Their Eye Off the Ball
Keep Their Eye Off the Ball
7/21/10
Keep Their Eye Off the Ball – distraction, that’s the name of the game with the Progressive Socialist party that controls our Congress and Executive Branch of government.
Let’s break it down further:
Why distract the public? Because the economy stinks like washed up fish in the sun (pun intended).
Our country was founded on Independence from the then Ruling Class of England back in the late 1700’s.
Obama’s campaign promise was to provide the American Public with change – but, we the people, were so desperate for governmental change of any kind, we never asked him to specify what kind of change. It goes back to the old saying of “Devil known versus Devil unknown”. Well, this unknown Devil has now clearly reared it’s ugly head in the form of Socialism (to say the least).
Socialism, Marxism, Communism – all of these forms of “government” (more accurately rule) do not and never have worked. Yet the current administration is “hell bent” on pursuing this road. Look at Socialistic Europe, their economies are crashing and the Obama Administration wants to become more like them. If it seems as if the Administration is trying to completely transform (collapse) the American Economy that made us great in the first place, it’s because they are!
During Ronald Reagan’s presidency, the Democratic controlled House, at the urging of President Reagan, cut the marginal tax rate on the highest-income tax bracket from 70% to 28%. What happened, less taxes created more private sector productivity, thus increasing the money flow and consumption in our economy. This increase in money flow was due to private sector expansion – NOT the printing (and borrowing) of more and more money, which essentially makes our currency worth less and less (supply & demand 101).
Economic growth can be most effectively created by lowering barriers for people to produce (supply) goods and services, such as adjusting income tax and capital gains tax rates and by allowing greater flexibility by reducing regulation. Consumers will then benefit from a greater supply of goods and services at lower prices.
The Obama Administration is all about control and public dependence on big government / public sector utilizing increased and stringent regulations to raise barriers for economic growth and production.
To redistribute wealth is to take away incentive of private sector productivity (not only take away incentive, but to actually penalize productivity), while literally giving money to those who don’t earn it, again, making the masses more, not less, dependent on big and growing federal government.
Here’s some glaring examples:
The Arizona lawsuit – the federal government does not want states to have the ability to protect themselves without the federal government (dependence), so they’re suing Arizona to prevent it, costing a great deal of money and time and distracting the public from our nation’s three biggest problems:
-High and growing unemployment
-A bad and worsening economy
-An out of control national debt and deficit (literally growing by the second)
Extension of unemployment benefits by printing and borrowing more money. Why isn’t the government using all that left over TARP and bailout money. Simple, this works three ways in the Socialist agenda’s favor:
-They create a bigger debt, thus hurting our economy more and more
-They increase public dependence (there’s that word again) on the big and
growing federal government.
-This serves to drive yet another nail in the coffin of Capitalism and the
private sector.
Moratorium du jour: Don’t think for a minute that this moratorium has anything at all to do with protecting our environment. Even Democratic representative and Department of Natural Resources Secretary, Scott Angelle is saying that the repeated attempts to implement this moratorium (after multiple rejections from the courts) “smacks” of politics, not environmental concerns. He went on to state that for every 50 cent increase in the price of gasoline, it would cost our economy $1.2 billion per week! The moratorium will be putting over 20,000 people in the gulf out of work and crushing over one third of the local economy. If you think this is pro economic growth, you’re sadly mistaken. Oh, by the way, there is talk that this moratorium, if finally passed, will last for 2 years, not just 6 months – that will assure that all the oil rigs will leave the US, exponentially increasing our dependence on foreign oil. Again, don’t forget that the Obama Administration and George Soros have invested well over 10 billion of our tax dollars in Petrobras, a Brazilian oil drilling company that will be drilling at over 13,000 feet below the surface of the ocean (the BP drilling was only 5,000 feet). Oh, but the government is concerned about deep off shore drilling for the global environment – if you believe that one, watch out for flying pigs.
Cap and Trade / Cap and Tax / Cap and Ban:
Will raise electricity prices by 36 percent for households and 60 percent for industry
Cut national income (GDP) by $5.2 trillion between 2012 and 2035
Cut national income by $2,400 per year for a family of four
Reduce employment by more than 1,000,000 jobs
Add more than $10,000 to a family of four’s share of the national debt by 2035
And that is just the "cap" half of President Obama's Cap and Ban approach – I’m not even going to go into the "ban" part – too upsetting.
Failed, but expensive, government mortgage modification program: Why have over 90,000 people left this government sponsored mortgage modification program? Because most of the people being offered it had no ability to take out these mortgages in the first place, and due to a lousy economy and growing unemployment, many still can’t make their much lowered monthly payments (monthly payments were reduced by as much as 60% for many and they still can’t make the payments). This program cost billions of dollars – completely wasted (another plus for this Administration’s agenda)!
Keep in mind that none of this is by accident – it’s a well thought out, deliberate agenda to take America down more than a “peg”, but to transform America into a welfare state fully under the control and dependence of the federal government.
The puppeteer to the Obama Administration’s puppet, George Soros, when asked by Australia’s national newspaper The Australian, “What about America?” replied:
" America, as the center of the globalized financial markets, is sucking up the savings of the world."
"This is now over. The game is out," he said, adding that the time has come for "a very serious adjustment" in American's consumption habits. He implied that he was the one with the power to bring this about.
Soros went on to say: "I find World financial crisis to be "stimulating" and "in a way, the culmination of my life's work."
Soros has been actively working to destroy America from the inside out for some years now. Many people have been warning us. Two years ago news sources reported that "Soros is an extremist who wants open borders (surprise), a one-world foreign policy, legalized drugs, euthanasia, and on and on. This is off-the-chart dangerous."
Several days ago thousands of people gathered in New York City to protest the building of the Muslim mosque near ground zero – did the mainstream media cover it – not a word. Is Major Bloomberg completely silent on the issue – you bet he is.
Today between 15,000 and 20,000 people are gathering with Bobby Jindal in Lafayette, Louisiana to protest the moratorium.
The Rally for Economic Survival will be the nation’s largest event to date protesting the federal moratorium on deepwater drilling. Coordinators of the Rally have reported tremendous support from across the Gulf Coast, specifically Louisiana for the event.
Do you think the main stream media will cover any of this in detail – highly doubtful.
Oh, but the liberally slanted main stream media is covering Lindsey Lohan – now that’s important news!
You see, it’s just like mentioned in the beginning of this posting:
Keep Their Eye Off the Ball – distraction, that’s the name of the game with the Progressive Socialist party that controls our Congress and Executive Branch of government.
They have nothing to hang their hats on (only one failed program after another), so they’ve resorted to the race card – although it has very little basis in reality, the regime is pushing forward with it as hard as they can because they know they’re in major trouble come this November (ask Robert Gibbs).
We will not fall divided, because United We Stand!
