ABC and the White House finally come out of the closet

So it now appears that ABC has decided to abandon any remnants of objectivity with their decision to hop in bed with the White House in order to hustle the myth of blissful universal health care.

Folks, if the the White House has to whore around with their government sponsored media in order to sell an idea, you know we're in a heap of trouble. Who do we have to look after our interests when the people that are supposed to question our leaders are actually propagandizing the message?

Cheney vs. Obama

There's been quite a bit of hoopla over the amount of attention Cheney has commanded recently. It seems he is the lone "mainstream" voice for conservatism. I think other Republicans would be better served following his lead instead of cowering in the shadows waiting for poll numbers to see how they should react.

You know, I think our elected officials are examples of just the types of people that should NOT be in positions of power. We need leaders that take a stand, lay out a direction, and vote on principal and NOT cowards who just sit back and wait for unelected personalities to go out fight the battles. Yes, most of our elected Republicans are pussies. Meanwhile, we have Cheney mopping the floor with Obama, while our "brave" officials twiddle their thumbs. Hell, we have Liz Cheney putting up more fight than the bums on Capital Hill. This is proof that fighting works!

Folks, we need to clean house and get the bums out of power - Dems AND Pubs.

Obama complains about debt as he charges away the future

In an ironic turn of events that left me scratching my head and feeling like I was in an episode of the Twilight Zone, President Obama said today that he believes the country is in too much debt. If you're any sane individual that has been observing the incredible rate at which the current Congress and Obama have been spending, you are right now scratching your head and screaming "WTF!!!"

I can't even believe that he's saying this. Obama, in concert with the Pelosi/Reid legislature has been the spearhead of the current spending orgy that he has proudly promoted and passed. In light of his seemingly now self-purported poor judgment, he should at least offer the head of those responsible for selling to the American public that this ludicrous spending was the correct way to get the economy going. As he admitted, it wasn't.

Remember, it was Hillary Clinton that was sent over to China just two months ago hustling our seemingly worthless treasury bonds to the ChiComs. And obviously, it stands to reason that if you just print money from nowhere then you will experience inflation. There is at least one big idiot in the administration (I know, many more than that).Obama needs to admit this shortcoming and if he's serious about this statement of reckless spending, then he should immediately rescind this irresponsible budget and get the country back to independence and prosperity.

Once again, the naivete, and arguably outright incompetence of the current administration has sold America short and left us in debt with the worst of our situation yet to arrive (ie. inflation and further unemployment).

Whatever the case, Obama is complaining about the size of the hole all the while he's busy helping to dig it.

Phony veteran used by Colorado Democrat politicians

I felt absolutely compelled to write about what I think is one of the most disgraceful acts that a person can perpetrate. Today, our local media in Southern Colorado (see links below) are reporting about a "phony soldier" that was so convincing that he fooled the local news media, Michael Moore, and apparently all the Colorado Democrats that they had found a 3-time Iraq tour veteran who also survived the 9/11 attack on the Pentagon.

To help paint the picture of how absurd this whole mythical perpetuation existed, I implore you to read the posting at this site, "This ain't Hell, but you can see it from here." Here it is documented to the extent at which this lie was used in a subversive political attempt to capture military vote.

The local media portrays this guy to be an escaped mental patient. As a matter of fact, I haven't heard one single comment made regarding the political ads that were made during the election cycle. Is the media really this inept at reporting? Were the Democrats really this stupid? I'm inclined to believe that this is just another example of more Democrat voting fraud.

Is Cap and Trade the new subversive tax? You bet it is!

For all the talk coming from the Obama administration regarding his "95% tax cut for all Americans", most of what I've been reading lately is that Obama's funding for his ever growing government (Ala TARP and Stimulus) will be stealth increases such as Cap and Trade. Similar to how the CAFE standards back in the 70's forced industry to regulate emissions and dictate business practices, which in turn increased cost for those particular goods, Cap and Trade is another backdoor energy tax that is reportedly going to cost over $3000 per person, per year.

Truth be told, if most Americans knew their energy bill was going up, there would be zero, zilch, nada support for this. Forget the point that Cap and Trade will do nothing to help the environment. But, when will the mainstream media pick up on this subversive lie that is Cap and Trade?

Teleprompter to Obama: "Who's the Beyatch Now?"

In a recent Politico article, it seems that Barrack's teleprompter is attempting to sabotage our new president. I would argue that if the president would learn how to formulate and speak his own words, he wouldn't have this problem. Maybe I'm "out of the norm".

Seriously, I think the way his teleprompter treats him is symbolic of how his perception is of how Americans should be treated.

Hear me out....

I am of the view that someone of Obama's stature and education should be able to hold a speech without the absolute crutch of having a teleprompter or some other mental cue of what the heck your talking about. But, who can really memorize whole speeches and your internal beliefs and stuff? If I was Obama, I would use this vulnerability as an illustration that even the President of the U.S.A. is not infallible to the pitfalls inherent of being a mere human being. To continue, he should use this to paint a complete picture that "since the president isn't even capable of forming his own words and speech, far be it for you, a mere peasant in our big world of confusing economic times, to form your own thoughts and decisions of your future, your money, and the well being of the United States."

No, like the banking, housing, and economic crises, the White House should look at Barrack's inability to speak as an opportunity to tell Americans how fallible we are. This is the perfect time for the new administration to tell Americans how ineffectual we ALL are. "He's only a man, we're only a country".

So my question to Barrack would be, when will the teleprompter give our country a positive direction? And when will the teleprompter be promoted to President Czar?

Barrack's 1st 100 Days: "Good news for government dependency, Bad news for economic opportunity"

The Politico has an interesting story headlined on Drudge Report regarding Barrack's first 100 days. Apparently supporters of the president are ecstatic at the job he's doing.

Here are my observations about Barrack's first 100 days and the reasons as to why he's perceived favorably among his constituency.

First, I still prescribe to the belief that a huge proportion of the general population, as well as a majority of the Obama voters do not understand the world view that Barrack possesses. They believe that the charges of anti-Americanism and radical left-wing beliefs have all been exaggerated by the political Right. They just don't believe the president can be that socialist. This is coupled with the fact that the majority of Obama supporters (the younger generation) have not experienced freedom and liberty the way our fathers and grand-fathers experienced it. We're used to being told what to do and how to think, so to speak. This generation hasn't had to do anything for themselves, and has the expectation that everything should be given. I think this is the first generation that would naively be willing to sacrifice freedom for security.

Second, most of the policies and burdens Obama and the current congress are implementing do not affect those who voted for the president. Obama makes clear that he stands "for the people". What that means is that he's against capitalism. As such, the uneducated and underemployed are insulated from tax increases, tighter regulations, and the results that occur in terms of the stock market as well as the decrease in white and blue collar jobs. This is part of "leveling the playing field".

You see, the poor plebes that Obama has enslaved will not see the negative effects of our economy. For whatever socio-economic reasons (laziness, apathy, sickness, etc), some Americans will never achieve the American dream. As such, Obama and the current congress will continue to tear down those that have drive and ambition in order to "make things fair" to those that can't. And THIS is how Obama's first 100 days has affected me and millions of others that are "on the economic fence". Obama will make sure that I, and many other opportunity seekers end up on the wrong side. Once he has more than half the country dependent then he will cement his party's power as well as the misguided political philosophy that follows.

N.H. Democrat Head Continues to mock tea party movement

So, here's Chairman of the New Hampshire Democrat Party stating that the Tax Day Tea Party protesters didn't know what they were protesting. Oh my folks, you must listen to the audio. It seems obvious to me that this guy either has his head burried in the sand, or he thinks the Tea Party folks are as mindless as the "pay-for" protesters that get hired by the organizers.

I can't tell you how happy I am that the Democrats and Leftists are dismissive of the anti-tax evangelists. This tells me that what is happening IS EFFECTIVE!

Keep it up America! It seems that the Left is happy to let this grass roots effort grow. Thank God this is moving in the right direction.

Dick Cheney responds to "selective release" of documents

Foxnews had a story in response to Obama's recent selective choice and release of CIA documents on torture. Please read the interview with Dick Cheney for reference.

What I find interesting is the expediency at which Obama will release documents that are critical of the former administration's handling of terrorists, but they are so hesitant to release the valuable information and terrorists secrets obtained from such events.

The Obama administration released documents that lead us all to believe that there was uncontrolled waterboarding. Oh.....America is terrible.....We "torture" terrorists for Pete's sake!!! Reading the story, you'd almost feel sympathetic to the plight of the murderous terrorists that we were "questioning". I think maybe the administration DID feel sorry for them (the reasons we won't talk about, as this it's purely speculative given the President's track record on "so-called" enemies of the state).

But no....you're not going to hear from Obama at the valuable terrorist information that was obtained from "questioning" these evil people....most don't have the S.C.I. clearances to have the privelege of such information (not unlike the the de-classified waterboarding info). But, knowing that the waterboard questioning is effective doesn't fit the template of "hate America". No, he will only release sensative information if it DAMAGES the country, not protect it. Far be it for him to promote the positive effects of detainment and questioning.

I think the bigger question to ask is "What the hell is Obama doing to obtain terrorist information" now that he is dismissing this policy as "torture"?

Texas Governor Perry Flips Bird To Feds

I know a lot of folks cried during the Inauguration. I did too, but not for the same reason. No, I cried for the future of the country. Today, however I felt myself get choked up watching a video of the Texas Governor's response to the federal stimulus package and his state's reluctance to accept the funding claiming 10th Amendment sovereignty.

Stating, “I believe that our federal government has become oppressive in its size, its intrusion into the lives of our citizens, and its interference with the affairs of our state", Gov. Perry has thrown the gauntlet right to the feat of the federal government - the Obama administration and the Democrat controlled Senate. Rightfully so, the state of Texas doesn't want to implement unneeded social programs with temporary spending funds that will expire. After a year, the program either has to shut down or it will have to find funding from some other taxpayer source. (Don't be fooled. It's governments way of implementing dependency, fund it temporarily, and then cry foul when the program expires and demonize Republicans for cutting programs.)

You see, those "crazy" Texans believe in self sufficiency and resisting the urge to feed off the trough that is government waste. As a matter of fact, I think states like New York and California need to take a look at what Texas is doing right instead of trying to pick theirs, and everyone else's pockets because of their failed social experiments.

Hats off to Gov. Perry. It's about time we started seeing more leaders speaking out on the constitution and individual freedom and liberty. Let's "hope" this "change" in thinking spreads to other leaders throughout the country!

Applying Selective Capitalism

A recent headline reads "Venezuelan Leader: Capitalism needs to go down". It should no surprise to anyone that Chavez would say this. What is shocking is that there are many, many leftist Americans that believe the same day. To the Leftists/Statists/Marxists, it is Utopian to think of a classless world where everyone has everything they need everyone contributes everything they can in the name of worldwide communal living. Ahh - peace and harmony....

In theory, this would be a beautiful world. Just think of how much less stress one would have if you didn't have to worry about keeping up with the Jone's. The truth of the matter is, even in a Kumbayah loving world, there will ALWAYS be individuals that look around and see room for improvement. Inherently, humans have a "greedy" desire for advancement, improvement, and a strive for achievement. Again - this is inherent. The leftists in power have this same desire - with the exception of their belief that only THEY should have the power to name who will be the elite, the "haves and have nots", and who should have the opportunity for individual achievement. So basically what I'm saying is that Capitalism will NEVER die - it will only be stifled with laws and regulations that benefit only the elitists in power that only allow achievement in their own right while denying this right for all the common folk. The "masses" will be made to deny their urge of self-fulfillment in the name of the environment and "saving our fellow man".

So you see, the leftists have staged a ruse whereby only the one's making the rules will have the path to achievement while regular old Joe Schmoe's like myself have the will and desire snuffed in order to stifle the will or the inherent desire to make a better life for ourselves and our families. No, Capitalism will not die - it will only be denied to the masses and applied discriminately to the elite.

Why I'll NEVER buy GM again...

No, I will never buy a General Motors car ever again. But, not because of the reasons you are probably thinking. You see, most liberals don't understand what could be so wrong with a government owned auto company. "Wouldn't it be patriotic to buy a car from the government?" I think a good portion of liberals would think, "Oh you just don't want to support the government!" or "You're just an Obama denier". No, that's not it. The truth is, if government really did do things productive, marketable, and inventive at a reasonable price, then I'd be inclined to consider a government made automobile. But, look no further than the DMV, Medicare, and IRS to see how "efficiently" the government runs business. No, government owned in and of itself is not the reason why I will no longer buy from this company. There are only 2 things that can happen with this GM takeover:

1. The car is going to be too expensive. Anything the government touches is a bad investment. They can't create anything (barring dependency on the government) that is cheaper than what can be created in the free market. Nope, no one will buy these cars due to expense (look at unreasonable subsidies paid to non-productive union members as well as the unlimited taxpayer funding as the reason).
   
2. The car is going to be a piece of crap tin can that no one will want to buy. The types of car's Barack and the environmentalists want to us to buy are the one's that NOBODY wants to buy. Make no mistake - say goodbye to the SUV.
   

With either of these scenarios, GM will not sell cars without the mandate of the government by way of legislating tariffs on competitors (see cap and trade) and creating laws that force the American consumer in to their nice new, undesirable "bean tin" at a GUARANTEED taxpayer expense ala Amtrak. Whatever the case, the company will not be profitable, will be made to sell inferior products, and will force consumers with no other choice.

Welcome to 21st century communism, folks. Saddle up, it's going to be a long painful road. Again, this is "change we can believe in."

Chris Dodd: Proof we need term limits

Question: What happens when a mere human is given power to legislate undeterred, access to billions of non-accountable dollars, and has their feet planted in the sewer that is big Washington politics so deep that you can smell the putrescence from their breath every time they open their mouth? Well....you get Chris Dodd.

Controversy is nothing new to this very well tenured Senator from Connecticut. He has had his share of documented problems ever since he was on the take back in the 80's.

The problem with someone like Dodd is he is so disconnected from the "real world" and is so entrenched in stench he has no business legislating important economic decisions affecting BILLIONS of people.

The framers of the constitution always believed in the beauty of the system they created. They believed that if a servant of the people misbehaved, they would be voted out of office. They also believed that "servants of the people" would never betray their constituents due to the fact that after their service expired, they would be mere citizens having to live by the system of rules to which they helped create. Not so much in today's political world...

Folks, there's a reason why Senators and Congressmen are elected, go to Washington as noble citizens, and come out of the Washington meat grinder as snooty, wealthy, well-to-do elitists. It's because they wade through the muck of sick politics, become "the fortunate one's", and then(like any human would be tempted) they take advantage of the system they were sent to serve. So, just imagine what happens when you're wading through this cesspool of sin and corruption for 35 YEARS! Imagine hell or purgatory, except for now you get the "room with a view", temporary ventilation from the stench, and quick access past the throngs of soulless throwing themselves at your feet.

The Constitution framers, notwithstanding the huge increase in life expectancy nowadays compared to 1776, never thought that members of congress would setup permanent camp and residency in Washington. Who the hell would want to? It stinks like feces, you have to sell your soul to get a water fountain in your district, and the only friends you can make are those that want something from you. Yes folks, it's time to rethink career politicians. Who would do this for 35 years? Who, you might ask? Any crook that wants infinite power and influence at any expense, that's who!

Unable to sell message, Dems look to silence critics

In an article in The Hill, the headline read "Conservatives Ask: Is Durbin going after Limbaugh?" it appears that the Senate democrats are tired of hearing the opposition. I'm sure their phones ring off the hook with pesky voters that keep bugging them about the financial mess, reckless spending, coming after our guns, et al. It's much easier getting rid competing voices so that everything can be rammed through without a fight. Hey - it works for China, Venezuela, and Cuba....can't be bad, right?

Folks, when are we going to wake up and realize our freedoms are being eroded one law at a time? I'm not a Republican, but I can smell a fish - especially when it's being stuffed down my throat. They're going after Rush now, but it's really an assault on all of us. Liberals are going after guns, thought, speech, liberty, and individuality. If we don't rise and stop it now, then we deserve every bit of freedom they steal from us.
