Keep Their Eye Off the Ball

Keep Their Eye Off the Ball

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!
