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.

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.

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!

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!

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.
We will not fall divided, because United We Stand!

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!

Dictatorship 101
Dictatorship 101
7/16/10
Dictatorship. aka Totalitarianism (or totalitarian rule) is a political system where the state, usually under the control of a single political person, faction, or class, recognizes no limits to its authority and strives to regulate every aspect of public and private life wherever feasible. Now if that doesn’t sound chillingly familiar, I don’t know what does.
Absolute rule – period. Citizens (or more appropriately stated, subjects) are the second class masses that are regarded as nothing more than tools of the regime put under rule for one reason and one reason only – to serve the state.
You say, oh no, that would never, neigh, could never happen in the United States of America. Ah, nothing like ignorant bliss. Like it or not, it’s happening in our beloved America more and more every single day under the current Administration.
The American public fought, protested, pleaded with the Federal government “representatives” to not institute the Socialistic Health Care Reform law. Their pleas were ignored, drown out by the walls surrounding the back rooms where corruption, bribery and every other dirty means rang out with a deafening tone.
In the “immortal” words of Nancy Pelosi: “We’ll have to pass this Health Care Bill so that we can find out what’s in it”. This was probably the one and only truthful moment in her entire political career. Her ability to look directly in the American Public’s eye and unabashedly lie is why she’s the perfect leader
of this Administration (and, unfortunately our country). Of course, this is only made possible with the assistance of our figure head “leader” and Prince Harry Reid and the Socialistic minions in Congress.
Remember, by 2014 (possibly sooner), the American people will be required / mandated by law to be covered by this health care plan or face penalties, and by that time – if the Progressives retain control of Congress and Obama gets reelected in 2012, more likely, jail time.
This is not Federal jurisdiction – it’s up to the states who would never require health care coverage, just as they don’t require one having a driver’s license – as long as that person doesn’t drive.
This is unheard of, but, you know, to the Progressives / Socialists, our Constitution is just a ragged, dusty outdated piece of paper whose time has come and gone. It is nothing more than an inconvenience / impediment in
the eyes of the Progressive party’s pushing through their poisonous agenda.
Totalitarianism is generally characterized by the coincidence / combination of authoritarianism (citizens having no significant share in state decision-making) and ideology (a pervasive scheme of values declared by institutional means to direct most, if not all, aspects of public and private life).
Do you think the “nanny state” and restrictions on what we can eat and drink are an attempt to direct our private lives? Oh, and let's not forget the government tracking your BMI (Body Mass Index). In the near future, if your weight in relation to your height doesn't match government established standards, you're going to be in hot water.
Now look at the Financial Reform bill (soon to be signed into law). It grants the Executive Branch sole authority to examine and, if deemed necessary, close down companies without the consent of Congress!!! Congress has, in essence, granted all regulatory authority to the Executive Branch of our Federal government. Obama gets to dictate (oh, there’s that “D” word again) which business are too big to fail, as well as which business are to be absorbed or just simply wiped-out, as if they never existed in the first place.
If that’s not the road to Totalitarianism, I frankly don’t know what is.
This will cause massive investor and small business uncertainty, a major decrease in business expenditures for new employees, inventories, expansion, you name it, and that will (as according to the not-so-hidden agenda of the current administration), badly hurt the private sector and boost dependence on the public sector. Did “we the people” have any say in any of this, of course not, we are subjects, not citizens with a say in such matters.
One little known provision buried deeply in this most recent travesty of a bill (also not read by Congress) are regulations that appear to go beyond ensuring that discrimination in hiring decisions does not occur. Instead, they require assurance of "fair inclusion" which translates to the law pressuring companies to find and hire minorities even if one (a minority) hasn't even applied for a specific job! This affirmative action provision would apply to all “financial institutions” – i.e. investment banking firms, mortgage banking firms, asset management firms, brokers, dealers, underwriters, investment consultants, providers of legal services, accountants, etc.
No, you’re not imagining this, you are reading correctly.
Totalitarian regimes or movements maintain political power through an all-encompassing propaganda (currently the racial discrimination spin because they have nothing else to hang their hats on) disseminated through the state-controlled mass media (the Liberally slanted media), a single party (Progressives) that is often marked by personality cultism, control over the economy (I don’t even have to give an example of this one), massive regulation and restriction of speech (there's that pesky First Amendment again), mass surveillance (sooner than you would imagine), and widespread use of state terrorism {New Black Panthers and the acceptance (and almost encouragement) of their intimidation techniques by the NAACP and, believe it or not, our own Department of Injustice}!
Americans cannot let all of this unbelievable stealth seizure of our rights go unchecked. We must go (en masse) to the polls on November 2nd and cut this regime’s legs off at the knees.
We will not fall divided, because United We Stand!

Dictatorship. aka Totalitarianism (or totalitarian rule) is a political system where the state, usually under the control of a single political person, faction, or class, recognizes no limits to its authority and strives to regulate every aspect of public and private life wherever feasible. Now if that doesn’t sound chillingly familiar, I don’t know what does.
Absolute rule – period. Citizens (or more appropriately stated, subjects) are the second class masses that are regarded as nothing more than tools of the regime put under rule for one reason and one reason only – to serve the state.
You say, oh no, that would never, neigh, could never happen in the United States of America. Ah, nothing like ignorant bliss. Like it or not, it’s happening in our beloved America more and more every single day under the current Administration.
The American public fought, protested, pleaded with the Federal government “representatives” to not institute the Socialistic Health Care Reform law. Their pleas were ignored, drown out by the walls surrounding the back rooms where corruption, bribery and every other dirty means rang out with a deafening tone.
In the “immortal” words of Nancy Pelosi: “We’ll have to pass this Health Care Bill so that we can find out what’s in it”. This was probably the one and only truthful moment in her entire political career. Her ability to look directly in the American Public’s eye and unabashedly lie is why she’s the perfect leader
of this Administration (and, unfortunately our country). Of course, this is only made possible with the assistance of our figure head “leader” and Prince Harry Reid and the Socialistic minions in Congress.
Remember, by 2014 (possibly sooner), the American people will be required / mandated by law to be covered by this health care plan or face penalties, and by that time – if the Progressives retain control of Congress and Obama gets reelected in 2012, more likely, jail time.
This is not Federal jurisdiction – it’s up to the states who would never require health care coverage, just as they don’t require one having a driver’s license – as long as that person doesn’t drive.
This is unheard of, but, you know, to the Progressives / Socialists, our Constitution is just a ragged, dusty outdated piece of paper whose time has come and gone. It is nothing more than an inconvenience / impediment in
the eyes of the Progressive party’s pushing through their poisonous agenda.
Totalitarianism is generally characterized by the coincidence / combination of authoritarianism (citizens having no significant share in state decision-making) and ideology (a pervasive scheme of values declared by institutional means to direct most, if not all, aspects of public and private life).
Do you think the “nanny state” and restrictions on what we can eat and drink are an attempt to direct our private lives? Oh, and let's not forget the government tracking your BMI (Body Mass Index). In the near future, if your weight in relation to your height doesn't match government established standards, you're going to be in hot water.
Now look at the Financial Reform bill (soon to be signed into law). It grants the Executive Branch sole authority to examine and, if deemed necessary, close down companies without the consent of Congress!!! Congress has, in essence, granted all regulatory authority to the Executive Branch of our Federal government. Obama gets to dictate (oh, there’s that “D” word again) which business are too big to fail, as well as which business are to be absorbed or just simply wiped-out, as if they never existed in the first place.
If that’s not the road to Totalitarianism, I frankly don’t know what is.

Don't Cry Over Spilled Oil
Don’t Cry Over Spilled Oil
7/14/10
So, here we are almost three months / 90 days into the oil spill and it’s still flowing into the Gulf. Now it’s spreading further – next stop possibly the east coast of the Florida pan handle and then up the east coast.
Great News: BP now says that they have a new cap which has been tested and should be able to not only contain the spillage, but actually cap it - isn’t that great!
Yeah for the citizens of the Gulf and the country it is great.
Problem: The Federal Government’s Oil Commission came out yesterday and said they don’t want BP to do anything just yet, huh.
What would possibly motivate the Federal Government to want to delay this almost 90 day environmental catastrophe? Why would the Federal Government not listen to the gulf’s pleas (especially Louisiana’s governor Bobby Jindal).
Partially, because the wants and needs of the American People are totally irrelevant to this Administration:
Over 65% of the American Public did want health care reform, but not the
flawed (and never read) government controlled bill that ultimately passed. Now that just the tip of this horrendous iceberg is emerging, the people want this law repealed and, of course, the Federal Government turns a deaf ear.
Most of the country is backing Arizona in their pursuit of safety for the American citizens of the state, however, not only does the Fed refuse to do it’s job of making the border non-porous (porous, how’s that for a euphemism – just say unprotected already), but they have the audacity to sue the state after
Jan Brewer’s constant and legitimate pleas to please protect Arizona from drug traffickers, human smugglers, murderers and thieves.
Michelle Obama is encouraging tourists and vacationers to go to the gulf and support their economy. The Obama’s are going on (yet another) vacation up to the beautiful beaches of Maine, in other words, the furthest point on the East Coast from the gulf as possible.
Another (unspoken) Liberal mantra:
Do as we say, not as we do.
Plugging that hole with new found technology would be a blow against the Administration’s THIRD court attempt to reinstate the moratorium. They will not be able to use fear (and fear is one of their main forms of ammunition) of future drilling sites repeating the BP situation.
Look at places like Gulf Shores Alabama – their beaches still have beautiful white sand and sparkling ocean water, but, no one is going. Most tourists that normally go to the gulf in the summer are now going to the Carolina’s. Alabama’s beaches are completely deserted as are the surrounding resorts, hotels, restaurants, etc.
Back to Bobby Jindal, he continuously is saying that the people of the gulf region don’t want checks from BP or the government, they want to return to work. Again, since the people are considered an irrelevant annoyance to this Administration, they could care less what the people want.
The Fed is making these states Welfare States – you think it’s by accident – I certainly don’t. Again, there’s that Divide and Conquer again – the Administration is doing it with the gulf states as well as doing it with Arizona with the immigration fiasco – Divide and Conquer.
If they can’t get that moratorium in place, they won’t be able to hurt the economy, and it will become tougher to sell the American Public on Cap and Trade.
Cap and Trade is definitely about greenery, that’s true, but not for the planet, for their (The Socialist's) pockets.
If they are so desperate to save the planet, why are they asking BP to delay properly plugging the hole.
It’s not incompetence or sheer stupidity, but just another step to fulfilling their goal of toppling our economy, while at the same time hoarding money and power for their selfish desires. Not the oil spill itself, but the lack of leadership and incredible lack of coordination in plugging the leak and cleaning up the spill is not by accident, it’s by design.
Next the NAACP and New Black Panthers are going to say the citizen’s and Tea Party hates the oil spill because the oil is black. It’s sounds totally absurd (I am joking), but look at the reality of the racist accusation fest – that’s totally absurd. Since the Liberals really have nothing at all to hang their hats on with the November mid-terms quickly approaching, they (Liberals / Progressives) need something to motivate their followers, so they figure, why not racism, that’s always been a touchy subject – valid or not – that doesn’t matter to them.
Oil spill ruining our environment and economy
Economy sinking fast and only getting worse
Unemployment rising rapidly
Protection (and encouragement) of hate groups
Treating our global allies terribly, while bowing to the leaders of our enemies
Not saying a word about the proposed Mosque being build near ground zero
Seizing control of Banks, Insurance Companies, Auto Companies, the Student Loan Program, etc.
The list just goes on and on and I realize I haven’t touched on even a fraction of this Administration’s anti-American tactics, however my fingers are getting tired from all this typing. Oh, and let’s not forget about apologizing for America each and every chance Obama gets. His denial of our nation’s being exceptional while extending multiple peace offerings to our enemies only weakens us in their eyes. They don’t want to make up and be friends, they are committed to annihilating us and if need be, dying in the process. He wants NASA to praise the Muslim world on their mathematics contribution to society – they (the radical extremist Muslims) want us dead, period – the Administration just doesn’t get it.
So, unfortunately, the American people have stopped crying over spilled oil because, after 3 months, we’ve become numb to it. Still, we are a resilient bunch, and the spill will be plugged and the oil will be cleaned up eventually with the aid of other friendly nations.
We will not fall divided, because United We Stand!

Divide and Conquer
Divide and Conquer
7/12/10
In politics and sociology, divide and conquer (derived from Latin divide et impera) is also known as divide and rule and is a combination of:
Political, Military and Economic strategy of gaining and maintaining power by breaking up larger concentrations of power into chunks that individually have less power than the one implementing the strategy.
In reality, it often refers to a strategy where small power groups are prevented from linking up and becoming more powerful, since it is difficult to break up existing power structures.
Case in point, the current Administration is publicly chastising many big business (you all know the names), while at the same time working with these big businesses (behind the scenes) to do everything possible to cripple small businesses.
This accomplishes three political ends for the Administration:

Case in point, the current Administration is publicly chastising many big business (you all know the names), while at the same time working with these big businesses (behind the scenes) to do everything possible to cripple small businesses.
This accomplishes three political ends for the Administration:
First, once the small business competition is squashed under the heal of the Federal Government aided by big business, the big businesses have the power (in the form of money) and the obligation to play payback to the government for their assistance (in the form of political contributions - continued power and influence).
Secondly, once the small businesses are financially and psychology drained of just about all of their resources, the economy will depend more on big business, which in turn depends on the government's oversight to keep big business in the driver's seat.
Third, once the backbone of the US economy is broken (not just cracked or fractured, as a crack or fracture can heal), the current Washington DC regime will hold more and more power over the people. Entrepreneurship is what made this country great - a free capitalistic economy and independent society.

Entrepreneurship is what made this country great - a free capitalistic economy and independent society.
Have no doubt about it, the current Administration's agenda is to transform this free Capitalistic economy and independent society into a fully dependent and controlled Socialistic society. In broader terms, they envision transforming the American Public from independent citizens to dependent subjects!
Another example of divide and conquer is the 6 month blanket moratorium on offshore drilling. One has to laugh at six months, after several months, the majority of productive rigs will have left the Gulf understandably looking for "greener pastures". You cannot blame them - business is business, as they say. These rigs will be gone for years and many will not return at all.
Once our domestic oil industry has been "cut off at the knees", foreign oil companies will flourish even more than they do now. This would accomplish making us more dependent (why, there's that word again), on foreign oil, while at the same time making those that invest in those foreign drilling companies very, very wealthy. Oh, almost forgot to mention, that George Soros owns 10,000,000 shares of Petrobras (a Brazilian offshore oil drilling company) and Obama just recently invested over $2,000,000,000 of our taxpayer dollars in same (see yesterday's 7/11/10 blog for details on this subject).
Side note: One might think that I'm a supply side fiscal conservative, and if so, one would be correct.
You're probably saying, yeah, but they won't be drilling as deep as BP (5,000 feet) because of the big concern on the Global Greenies' part that that would hurt the environment. Wrong! Petrobras will be drilling at 13,000 feet below the surface of the ocean - huh, now what's that all about, Mr. Gore & company?
Oh, and let's not forget the Supreme Court, which Obama's trying to also divide and rule, oh, did I say rule, I meant divide and conquer. He just pushed through an extremely inexperienced radical, we'll just call her Elena for now, in order to try to "even" the scales of Justice in his / the Administration radicals' favor. But they had a several day confirmation hearing or was it simply a dress rehearsal for a show we knew was going to play no matter what the hearing discovered.
Oh then there's that Donald Berwick, what a nice fella - he's having a love affair - all warm and fuzzy - with the UK's socialistic medical model - he wants to make the US just like them. On the downside, however, the UK's medical model is a proven failure and in complete shambles. I guess Obama and his Administration is just doing what they think is best for us poor, hapless souls here in the states. Yes, but the Republicans and surely some Democrats in Congress would never allow Berwick to be appointed to one of the most powerful positions in the free world, oh, but wait a second, sorry, Congress wasn't even consulted on this "minor" matter - they were on a Congressional recess, interesting.
Imagine if the Federal Government was to sue one of the states, that would really be another overt form of divide and conquer, but, no, that would never happen (sarcasm implied).
Next the DOI (Department of Injustice) would go and allow intimidation and life threats by racial hate groups like the New Black Panthers, but that would be alright, as long as the violence (both verbal and otherwise) is only directed at white people. Oh, wait, that is already happening now, what was I thinking?
So don't forget that phrase: Divide and Conquer, we'll be talking about it in more detail in future blogs.
We will not fall divided, because United We Stand!

The Destruction of Capitalism!
The Destruction of Capitalism!
July 11, 2010
Many Americans are currently asking why Obama will not control spending, while even the Socialistic European countries have realized that this uncontrolled spending is what got them into this mess in the first place.
Why then would Obama insist on continuing on the path of reckless spending?
Here’s why: Obama, his administration, appointed Czars, George Soros, Joel Rogers, Van Jones, Bill Ayers, Reverend Wright, (the list goes on and on) are committed to one thing: The Destruction of Capitalism!
Look at the facts: (I could only think of a dozen, I’m sure I’m missing quite a few additional points).*
1) Reckless Spending (record debt and deficit) with absolutely no desire to
slow down, let alone cease.
Our debt is projected to equal 62% of our economy by the end of this
year and 90% by the end of the decade – now that’s unsustainable!
2) Massive Stimulus plans that simply don’t work – unemployment did not
drop below 8%, but at least Obama got to waste a trillion dollars.
3) Bailouts that benefit the big banks and insurance company executives (not
the American public).
4) A horrific Government Health Care Plan (never read by Congress) which
will cost well over a trillion dollars and drastically restrict access
to quality health care, while at the same time, making it very unattractive for
young people to pursue a career in medicine. Power Grab #1.
5) A horrific Financial Reform Bill / Law (never read by Congress) which will
help, more than hurt, the big bank cronies of the Administration while, at
the same time, cause financial uncertainty for investors and small business
owners alike – of course – Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (one of the main
causes of the Mortgage disaster, besides HUD), were completely untouched.
Power Grab #2.
6) Despite lip service, almost everything the Obama Administration does
(again,not says), hurts the private sector, which is the backbone of
capitalism. He continues to publicly feign genuine concern for American
small businesses, meanwhile, he intends on killing them with higher taxes
and the Obama Care disaster Power Grab #3.
7) Immigration – Obama would rather get the illegal / Hispanic vote (to
retain power) than protect the American citizens of Arizona, Texas, and
the rest of the United States for that matter.
8) The handling of the Oil Spill. Foreign countries offered to help us and the
Federal Government declined, all of the potential solutions have been
ignored (under the “guise” of environmental concern – isn’t the oil spill
itself a major environmental concern?) – I just don’t get that one.
9) A six month blanket moratorium on offshore drilling which will badly hurt
the economy in the gulf and kill over 6% of our national GDP while creating
a much larger US dependence on anti-American foreign oil supplying
countries. Under the guise of environmental concerns, he is pushing through
the Cap & Trade / Cap & Tax bill, which, in the words of Van
Jones, “Passage of the Cap & Trade bill will accelerate the decline of
capitalism”. “Coincidentally”, Obama and Soros have invested billions of
dollars (Soros himself bought 10 million shares) in Brazilian Drilling
Company, Petrobras, that will be drilling at over 13,000 feet under the
ocean (BP drilled only at about 5,000 feet). With the domestic competition
wiped out by the moratorium, the investors in Petrobras and other Brazilian
and foreign oil companies stand to make obscene amounts of money, while
the American Public will be paying $9.00+ per gallon at the pump! Of course,
shortly after Soros invested almost a billion dollars into Petrobras, Obama
followed suit by investing $2,000,000,000 of our taxpayer dollars (another
of the many, many “coincidences” that seem to surround the Obama
Administration). Power Grab #4.
10) Unemployment at 9.7% - real unemployment is around 17% when
counting the people that gave up looking and those that are only employed
part time. Currently over 8 million Americans unemployed and counting.
11) Overt lack of transparency in every area of Federal Government (Cap &
Trade, Health Care, Financial Reform, takeover of Insurance Companies,
Banks, Student Loan programs, and now an attempt to silence the
Internet – the Administration cannot have the truth of their motives be
brought to light). Power Grab #5.
12) A completely failed foreign policy – showing total disrespect for Israel
while supporting their enemies while spitting in the face of the UK over
BP - even Turkey doesn't want to deal with us anymore and is supporting our
one of our many enemies. Then we have the Afghanistan and Iraq wars
getting worse by the day, flare ups in North Korea and real threats by Iran,
Pakistan, Syria, etc.
Also, on a separate note, look at Soros short selling the British Pound back in September, 1992, it almost brought the UK to it’s knees (Soros made $1 billion USD in one day). Some other stock and commodity traders that I talk to say: “Soros is a trader, so he must favor capitalism”. That couldn’t be further from the truth – Soros trades / profits from market moves as a means to a political ends – money = power. Don’t think for a second that he won’t start a US Dollar short selling campaign when the time it right – it will accelerate the downfall of the United States currency.
The Obama Administration – from the very beginning – never wanted to Govern, they wanted to Rule – and slowly, but surely, are getting closer and closer to achieving this.
No President or Administration could possibly be this incompetent without having a (not-so-hidden) agenda – to destroy Capitalism and create total dependence on the current regime (Socialism at best, more realistically Communism).
A famous conservative Hollywood actor openly stated: Hollywood is full of Communists, they just don’t realize that they’re Communists.
As Nikita Khrushchev said in 1959: “We cannot expect Americans to jump from Capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving Americans small doses of socialism until they suddenly awake to find they have Communism.”
That is precisely what is happening in America today
As Ronald Reagan said: Once Freedom is lost, it will never return.
In conclusion, you have to admit, there’s way too much evidence pointing to a deliberate attempt on the Obama Administration’s part to:
1) Destroy Capitalism
2) Slip more and more tidbits of Socialism into our society as quietly as
possible. None of this is “happenstance” – it’s a very well thought out
strategy being employed by a network of radicals working for the same
cause / end result. Look at the 10, so-called, Russian spies being detained
that were found in New York (Manhattan, Queens), Montclair, New Jersey, etc.
-Look at Obama’s past – he was raised by his Marxist grandparents,
associates with the likes of Joel Rogers, Van Jones, Bill Ayers,

July 11, 2010
Many Americans are currently asking why Obama will not control spending, while even the Socialistic European countries have realized that this uncontrolled spending is what got them into this mess in the first place.
Why then would Obama insist on continuing on the path of reckless spending?
Here’s why: Obama, his administration, appointed Czars, George Soros, Joel Rogers, Van Jones, Bill Ayers, Reverend Wright, (the list goes on and on) are committed to one thing: The Destruction of Capitalism!
Look at the facts: (I could only think of a dozen, I’m sure I’m missing quite a few additional points).*
1) Reckless Spending (record debt and deficit) with absolutely no desire to
slow down, let alone cease.
Our debt is projected to equal 62% of our economy by the end of this
year and 90% by the end of the decade – now that’s unsustainable!
2) Massive Stimulus plans that simply don’t work – unemployment did not
drop below 8%, but at least Obama got to waste a trillion dollars.
3) Bailouts that benefit the big banks and insurance company executives (not
the American public).
4) A horrific Government Health Care Plan (never read by Congress) which
will cost well over a trillion dollars and drastically restrict access
to quality health care, while at the same time, making it very unattractive for
young people to pursue a career in medicine. Power Grab #1.
5) A horrific Financial Reform Bill / Law (never read by Congress) which will
help, more than hurt, the big bank cronies of the Administration while, at
the same time, cause financial uncertainty for investors and small business
owners alike – of course – Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (one of the main
causes of the Mortgage disaster, besides HUD), were completely untouched.
Power Grab #2.
6) Despite lip service, almost everything the Obama Administration does
(again,not says), hurts the private sector, which is the backbone of
capitalism. He continues to publicly feign genuine concern for American
small businesses, meanwhile, he intends on killing them with higher taxes
and the Obama Care disaster Power Grab #3.
7) Immigration – Obama would rather get the illegal / Hispanic vote (to
retain power) than protect the American citizens of Arizona, Texas, and
the rest of the United States for that matter.
8) The handling of the Oil Spill. Foreign countries offered to help us and the
Federal Government declined, all of the potential solutions have been
ignored (under the “guise” of environmental concern – isn’t the oil spill
itself a major environmental concern?) – I just don’t get that one.
9) A six month blanket moratorium on offshore drilling which will badly hurt
the economy in the gulf and kill over 6% of our national GDP while creating
a much larger US dependence on anti-American foreign oil supplying
countries. Under the guise of environmental concerns, he is pushing through
the Cap & Trade / Cap & Tax bill, which, in the words of Van
Jones, “Passage of the Cap & Trade bill will accelerate the decline of
capitalism”. “Coincidentally”, Obama and Soros have invested billions of
dollars (Soros himself bought 10 million shares) in Brazilian Drilling
Company, Petrobras, that will be drilling at over 13,000 feet under the
ocean (BP drilled only at about 5,000 feet). With the domestic competition
wiped out by the moratorium, the investors in Petrobras and other Brazilian
and foreign oil companies stand to make obscene amounts of money, while
the American Public will be paying $9.00+ per gallon at the pump! Of course,
shortly after Soros invested almost a billion dollars into Petrobras, Obama
followed suit by investing $2,000,000,000 of our taxpayer dollars (another
of the many, many “coincidences” that seem to surround the Obama
Administration). Power Grab #4.
10) Unemployment at 9.7% - real unemployment is around 17% when
counting the people that gave up looking and those that are only employed
part time. Currently over 8 million Americans unemployed and counting.
11) Overt lack of transparency in every area of Federal Government (Cap &
Trade, Health Care, Financial Reform, takeover of Insurance Companies,
Banks, Student Loan programs, and now an attempt to silence the
Internet – the Administration cannot have the truth of their motives be
brought to light). Power Grab #5.
12) A completely failed foreign policy – showing total disrespect for Israel
while supporting their enemies while spitting in the face of the UK over
BP - even Turkey doesn't want to deal with us anymore and is supporting our
one of our many enemies. Then we have the Afghanistan and Iraq wars
getting worse by the day, flare ups in North Korea and real threats by Iran,
Pakistan, Syria, etc.
Also, on a separate note, look at Soros short selling the British Pound back in September, 1992, it almost brought the UK to it’s knees (Soros made $1 billion USD in one day). Some other stock and commodity traders that I talk to say: “Soros is a trader, so he must favor capitalism”. That couldn’t be further from the truth – Soros trades / profits from market moves as a means to a political ends – money = power. Don’t think for a second that he won’t start a US Dollar short selling campaign when the time it right – it will accelerate the downfall of the United States currency.
The Obama Administration – from the very beginning – never wanted to Govern, they wanted to Rule – and slowly, but surely, are getting closer and closer to achieving this.
No President or Administration could possibly be this incompetent without having a (not-so-hidden) agenda – to destroy Capitalism and create total dependence on the current regime (Socialism at best, more realistically Communism).
A famous conservative Hollywood actor openly stated: Hollywood is full of Communists, they just don’t realize that they’re Communists.
As Nikita Khrushchev said in 1959: “We cannot expect Americans to jump from Capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving Americans small doses of socialism until they suddenly awake to find they have Communism.”
That is precisely what is happening in America today
As Ronald Reagan said: Once Freedom is lost, it will never return.
In conclusion, you have to admit, there’s way too much evidence pointing to a deliberate attempt on the Obama Administration’s part to:
1) Destroy Capitalism
2) Slip more and more tidbits of Socialism into our society as quietly as
possible. None of this is “happenstance” – it’s a very well thought out
strategy being employed by a network of radicals working for the same
cause / end result. Look at the 10, so-called, Russian spies being detained
that were found in New York (Manhattan, Queens), Montclair, New Jersey, etc.
-Look at Obama’s past – he was raised by his Marxist grandparents,
associates with the likes of Joel Rogers, Van Jones, Bill Ayers,
Reverend Wright, etc.
