Alioto's Truth

When he sat there and listened to Obama lying about their recent decision outlawing part of the McCain-Feingold Act (The whole thing ought to be outlawed). He didn’t jump up and shout “You lie!” as one congressman did when he couldn’t take Obama’s lies any longer. He merely whispered it to another Justice, and the press went wild, saying he should just SHUT UP! I think he’s as entitled to his opinion as any other American citizen, and was within his rights if he DID stand up and shout “You lie!” The big problem in this country now is nobody DOES call Obama on his many blatant lies. The Supreme Court is charged with making sure the laws Congress passes adhere to the word and spirit of the Constitution, and that’s what they did in this case, even if it does anger Obama. Angering Obama is not a consideration. If the law is unconstitutional it is unconstitutional, regardless of what Obama thinks. Did you notice when others gave Obama a standing "O" as he lied, the Justices remained seated and did not applaud? I think that said more than Alito's "mouthing." (Washington Post)

Keeping Us Defenseless

That seems to be the goal of most of our governments (local and federal). When Islamic terrorists come here to kill us, as they will when they realize Obama’s government is not nearly as solid in opposition to that as the Bush government was, we will be completely defenseless because honest, reliable people are not allowed to be armed for self defense). Right now all we have to worry about is “run-of-the-mill criminals” and crazies who occasionally go into places they can be pretty sure have no guns to oppose them and shoot them up. But what will happen when an Islamic terrorist goes into a crowd and starts shooting? There will be no one there to shoot him down and stop his killing, so many will die. One of my fondest memories is of an Israeli woman standing over a Palestinian (Islamic) terrorist, pumping bullets into his face when he tried to start a shooting spree. In Israel, EVERYBODY carries a gun. Another fond memory is of a pretty blond woman worshiping at a church in Colorado Springs, Colorado, when a man came in the church, shooting. She was legally armed, and she shot him, ending his shooting spree

Has anybody ever noticed that such shooting sprees always happen in “no-gun zones?” Places where the shooter can be reasonably sure there will be no unexpected guns aimed in HIS direction? Our politicians need to start using common sense regarding self defense and the means to that end. For some reason (I know what it is) they want to keep us unarmed, and thus unable to defend ourselves against the illegally-obtained guns carried as a matter of course by criminals, crazies, and terrorists. In SPITE of all the anti-gun laws, guns are easy to get almost anywhere for those willing to break the law. The tighter the anti-gun laws are in a given area, the easier it is to buy an illegal gun. People bent on breaking laws don’t OBEY anti-gun laws. Only honest people do, and are thus unable to protect themselves against those who flagrantly violate ALL laws. We need to do as Florida has done and make it easy for honest people to obtain “carry licenses,” so that those who would use their illegally-obtained guns to plunder us will never be able to know if their intended victims are armed and willing to kill them before they can kill us. (Just common sense)

Pro-Abortionists Hate Ad

Focus on the Family is going to run an ad in the Superbowl celebrating LIFE, and reasons for NOT killing unborn infants before they’ve ever had a chance at life, using the experiences of a successful football player as an example. The pro-abortion people are incensed that ANYBODY would run an ad celebrating life, instead of death, as they do. They want to get CBS to usurp the right to speak on the part of Focus on the Family. They also hate it when we use their true name, "pro-abortionists," instead of their obfuscating name, “pro-choice.” Abortion isn’t about a “woman’s right to choose.” It’s about her “right to kill the result of unprotected sex,” rather than use a rubber. They insist we use the name they have DICTATED for us to use, rather than the more descriptive “pro-abortion.” I never thought we would be in a debate over whether or not to celebrate NOT killing babies. But we are. (Just common sense)

The "Big Lie" At Work

Newsweek's Howard Fineman, in a desperate effort to deny the documented racism of Democrats, says “Republicans have a terrible record on race.” Forgetting entirely that when the Equal Rights Amendment was passed, it was the Republicans pushing it, and the Democrats fighting it “tooth and nail.” (Media Research Center)

Equaling the Union Effect

The Democrats are bemoaning the recent Supreme Court decision to allow corporations to spend as much money as they wish to influence elections. They’re afraid that corporations will be able to EQUAL the influence unions have had on elections, since Obama specifically exempted them from the law the Supremes overturned. They can’t have that. The unions are on Obama’s side, as long as he specifically exempts them from laws affecting other people. They talk about “opening it up to big money” while forgetting entirely that until now it has been open JUST to the “big money” the unions can spend by stealing their members’ money. (Media Research Center)

Chavez Clobbers the Poor

After all his “big words” about being “for the poor,” he recently “clobbered them” by making their money worth less, all at once, by devaluing the currency. That’s what dictators do to mask their theft of the money of their citizens. Nixon did it to America, and you can expect it to happen here again soon, as Obama begins to realize the error of his ways. (Investor’s Business Daily)

Counterterrorism Officials Asleep

Remember the “shoe bomber?” They were surprised then, too. As they were when the “skivvy bomber” tried to strike. Both would-be terrorists were badly trained, and thus were unable to set off their bombs aboard airplanes. But that doesn’t mean the next one won’t be successful. These “officials” need to WAKE UP and stay AHEAD of what the terrorists (who are, after all, still living in the fifteenth century) are going to come up with next. If the terrorists can think of it, we can certainly think of it first, and be on the lookout for it. They need to stop inconveniencing EVERYBODY and start PROFILING people who are in that group (radical MUSLIMS) who want to kill everybody who doesn’t believe the same way they do. That is, I believe, the heights of religious intolerance. So we inconvenience some “good Muslims.” So what? It has been almost ALWAYS Muslims who make such attempts in recent years. So why look at blond, blue-eyed Scandinavians and others first? Better than inconveniencing EVERYBODY and thus not having TIME to look in the right direction. (Investor’s Business Daily)

Fiddling With Congress

They’re not going to let Scott Brown take Teddy Kennedy’s seat in Congress until AFTER the vote on Obama’s health care swindle (unless they chicken out). “As Democratic chances in 2010 are buffeted by public opposition, Republican Brown's chances to win the seat have shifted from science fiction to a real possibility [and, in fact, reality -RT]. The polls were conflicted. The Boston Globe shows Democratic Attorney General Martha Coakley with a 50-35 lead. Public Policy Polling puts Brown up 48-47.” (Investor’s Business Daily) for the first time in a long time, a Republican has a chance to win in liberal Massachusetts (and he did) because the liberal, socialist Democrats thought they “had it all” and could shove the health care swindle down our throats. Only problem is, people are “waking up” and even if it does pass, numerous Democrats are going to suffer. It isn’t even sure it’s GOING to pass. But they’re trying every dirty trick in the book, and some that are not, to get it passed before they lose their tenuous majority. (Investor’s Business Daily)

Six-Year-Old Dead of Neglect

And it’s all the fault of the conservatives. “Air America,” the liberal (“progressive”) radio network, is dead after six years of life. Mostly because not enough conservatives listened to their crap, and even liberals mostly avoided them because they were TOO liberal. So they couldn’t get sponsors and depended on money given them by moveon.org to stay on the air, even though they couldn’t pay their employees. I guess they thought their employees should work for nothing, since they had (in their opinion) such an important message. I don’t expect AlGore’s network to last that long because he doesn’t have Soros’ support. But I DO expect them to start griping about how “unfair” it is that the government doesn’t FORCE people to listen to their drivel. (Glenn Beck)

One Defeat After Another

Obama’s party has lost now in three elections, including the one in which a conservative Republican beat their handpicked Democrat in a “Democrat safe state.” Now even his decision to keep Ben Bernanke on as Fed Chairman is in danger. Everybody thought that, at least, was a “safe decision,” but it apparently is not (it may survive, but not without argument). I think his party is going to lose a lot more seats in Congress in this year’s election, completely destroying the 60-seat majority in the Senate he thought would allow him and his henchmen to rape this country easily. A majority that began to disintegrate with the election of a Republican to “Teddy Kennedy’s (unlosable) seat in the Senate. I hope the losses continue until he loses to Sarah Palin in 2012. (Financial Times)

A New Democrat Low

Most of this ad contains the usual Democrat crap, such as “in lockstep with Republicans,” as if Martha wasn’t “in lockstep with Democrats” and that being a Republican, he ought to be “in lockstep with Democrats.” Then there’s the old “tax breaks for the rich” scam, pitting average people against those who have earned a lot of money (through superior effort and creativity) while providing jobs for them (average people). And, of course, there’s the usual “scare the hell out of the old folks” scam. But the worst part of this ad is insinuating He’s against prosecuting rapists or help for rape victims. Even if I were a Democrat I wouldn’t vote for this woman because of the mindset displayed in this one ad. She lost, and that’s a good thing. Maybe now they won’t be able to pass Obama’s health care swindle (this time). But they’ll be back, count on it. Notice, they can’t even spell the name of their state. (You Tube)

Shoot "Em Instead?

The Supreme Court is interfering in the “minute-to-minute” maybe lifesaving decisions a cop must make in an instant during a stop. They are not on the scene and don’t know anything about the decisions he/she must make to preserve his/her own life if a subject attacks, especially if that subject is much bigger than the cop. Would they rather the cop SHOOT the subject, rather than use a stun gun on him? Frankly, I’d much rather he use a stun gun on me rather than shoot me (of course, I'm smart enough not to attack a cop). It’s always a problem when people who are NOT “on the scene” attempt to “second-guess” the cops, especially BEFORE something happens. (New York Times)

Will Brown Run for President?

He beat everything the Democrats could throw at him and took “Teddy”s seat.” Somebody will, I’m sure, criticize me for asking such a ridiculous question. After all, when was the last time a “junior senator” ran for, and won, the presidency? Oh, right. In the last election! The CURRENT president was a “junior senator” when he ran. Nobody knew who he was or what he stood for, but the press painted him as the “Second Coming” and the “Messiah.” Even while spouting such words as “redistributing the wealth” and “gonna bankrupt the coal industry” (without which, we could not survive) in between making more promises than he could EVER hope to keep, the electorate somehow didn’t understand that such words made it obvious he wanted to make a socialist nation out of America. Oh, right; most Americans don’t pay attention, anyway. (Yahoo News/AP)

It's So Damned Subtle

You don’t even notice it unless you’re paying attention. The artist that does “Crankshaft” believes in that environmental crap (as opposed to environmental realism) preached by AlGore and part of that is his belief that those “curly” light bulbs should be used (which I’m not going to do as long as I can get the real ones, even if I have to smuggle them in). So Crankshaft has to change a bulb and, guess what? In his hand is a “curly bulb.” Nothing said, it’s just there as a matter of course. (Crankshaft)

Redistributing Income

Obama is always on about this, and that should be very instructive, since “income redistribution” is a basic tenet of communism, socialism, and their parent, collectivism. Income redistribution is TAKING income EARNED by those capable and willing to earn for themselves, and GIVING that taken (stolen) to those unable or unwilling to earn for themselves. Now, this might be okay for people UNable to earn for themselves due to injury or handicap. But liberals include able-bodied people who just WON’T earn for themselves in the list of those to whom that stolen is GIVEN. The only recognizable “demand” on the earnings of those who DO earn is that the recipient have a sufficient NEED, making NEED a DEMAND on the earnings of others. This is THEFT in any man’s language, except for liberals. If you want to keep more of what you earn, liberals call you selfish.

It is NOT selfish to want to keep what you earn. That’s why you work. If you could not keep what you earn and use it for your own purposes, where’s the incentive to work? That’s key. Collectivism (socialism and all its other names meaning basically the same thing) destroys incentive and thus reduces productivity generally. Reducing productivity gives us less to sell to others at a profit. Profit is the “lifeblood” of commerce. Even communist countries must make a profit when selling products to other countries, otherwise, why bother? If people know their income will be given to others, they will not work as hard. That’s an undeniable fact that liberals just can’t understand. (Economist, Professor Thomas Sowell)

Profiling

Women wearing traditional Muslim headscarves are “singled out” for extra scrutiny in airports, and they wonder why. They call it “obvious profiling,” and they’re right. But what SHOULD we do when Muslims (not all of them, I know) are murdering us all over the world because we don’t believe the same as they do. Ignore them? No; we profile them and subject them to extra scrutiny. Anything less would be STUPID. And we’re not stupid, as extremist Muslims seem to think we are. Yes, profiling for profiling’s sake alone and subjecting people to extra scrutiny because of things like race and even religion is wrong—except that when we are being attacked by a certain group, we have to keep an extra eye on members of that group, innocent or not. That’s how we find the guilty and stop the killing. (Just common sense)

Is "Obamacare" Unconstitutional?

Was it James Madison, the WRITER of the Constitution, who once said (paraphrasing) “I fail to see anything in the constitution saying Congress can take property from one citizen to give to another.”? He certainly should know, being the AUTHOR of the Constitution itself. So everything Obama is doing in an effort to “share the wealth” is not only ILLEGAL, it’s unconstitutional. But then, Obama doesn’t care. He wants to do it, so he’s going to shove it down the throats of the American people if it chokes them, which it will. This woudn’t be so bad if it weren’t for the fact that this government has been violating the Constitution since almost before the ink dried on its signing without significant opposition. (Just common sense)

Trying Foreign Combatants Here is Insane!

Our idiot government immediately cut off any chance of gaining any useful intelligence from the “skivvy bomber” by indicting him in an American criminal court while allowing him to “:lawyer up” and CLAM up. This guy, and others like him, need to be treated as the foreign combatants they are, even if they do not represent a recognizable country. They need to be sent to a place where they can be questioned in a manner that they did not expect. One that is guaranteed to get them to babble everything they know before they are lined up before a wall and shot like the animals they are. Yes, I know, animals don’t rate such insults. They’re WORSE than animals. Animals are just trying to stay alive when they kill. (Human Events petition)

Pelosi Praising A Dead Horse

“When Pelosi was first handed the gavel in January 2007, the U.S. economy employed 137.3 million people and our nation's unemployment rate stood at 4.6%. According to the Labor Department's most recent report, the U.S. economy has shed 6.3 million jobs since then, and 10% of our workforce is now unemployed.” She paints that as “progress.” In a party that reveres failure, Pelosi is queen. (Heritage Foundation)

It Must Be Global Warming!

It’s FREEZING out! Alert AlGore! He has to come up with a reason to explain why freezing weather is caused by global warming! Oh; I forgot. He isn’t calling it “global warming” any more, although the base of his swindle is STILL a SINGLE DEGREE of temperature increase in a HUNDRED YEARS. What’s WRONG with this guy? Does he really believe he can continue to con us in the face of SOLID EVIDENCE he is lying, just by poo-poohing the evidence? (Mona Charen)

What's He Been Smoking?

“SAN'A, Yemen – Yemen's president said he is ready to open a dialogue with al-Qaida fighters who lay down their weapons and renounce violence, despite U.S. pressure to crack down on the terror group.” This is why we’ll never be free of fighting these terrorists. Politicians like this who actually BELIEVE the terrorists will “renounce violence” and disarm. They might TELL us they’re going to do it, but it will just be a swindle to gain time to rearm and gain more fighters from prisons and slums. Obama is just such a politician. He truly thinks he can “charm them out of their socks” like he has this entire country. But he’s wrong. They are religiously dedicated to killing as many of us as they can because we don’t believe the same way they do. They will not stop, just to “talk” to us. They’re not interested in talking. (Just common sense)

Ayn Rand Was right

In her ground-breaking novel, “Atlas Shrugged” (still available in most bookstores and on Amazon) she described one man who was most instrumental in destroying the economy for his own enrichment. His name was Wesley Mouch. Who is today’s “Wesley Mouch?” There are many candidates, but I nominate Barney Frank, (Democrat representative from Mass.) because he was instrumental in getting the “Citizen’s Reinvestment Act of 1976” passed and rebuffed Bush’s every effort to fix it. The one she predicted in that book, that FORCED lenders to loan money to deadbeats. When a banker refused, and “zeroed out” all his businesses and disappeared, that started the “strike of the men of the mind” that was the plot of the book. (John Stossel)

They Call Me A "Hawk"

Because I don’t fall for the silly notion that we can “talk to” our current enemies, who only want to kill us because we don’t believe the same way they do. We’re not going to change that (at least, I’m not), just to satisfy people who want to kill us because of our faith. There are far too many wimpy people in this country who might just do that to satisfy them and get them to back off; which they won’t do. If any of us do anything like that, they’ll read it as a weakness and intensify their efforts. They’ll impose “Sharia Law” on us, and this country will be doomed. I’m not going to stand for that. If that makes me a “hawk,” so be it. (Just common sense)

Stupid Policy

It is stupid policy to release Guantanamo prisoners and return them to their home countries. But you can’t get Democrats to listen when we tell them. Even when releasees return to the fight and kill more people. The Obamaites just won’t accept that the blood of all those they kill or have a hand in killing is on their hands. They’ve got their blinders on tightly. But then, that’s to be expected. They ALWAYS ignore ANYTHING that might prove them wrong, even if people die because of it. (Fox News)

Losers

The Islamic terrorists are ever on the lookout for losers and slobs to recruit. They look in prisons and in the sleaziest part of any city to find people who just can’t make it on their own; people with obvious “social issues” who always blame others, rather than themselves and their own lack of talents and abilities, for their failures. People who are easy to “mold” into the kind of stupid people who would kill themselves in order to kill others they blame for their failures. They look for dopers and criminals whose lives are lost and see no future for themselves, anyway. People who think “the world is against them and owes them a living.” They believe everybody is lined up against them and THAT’S why they can’t seem to succeed at anything. The terrorists search for the worst dregs of society to do their dirty work. They supply much of the world with deadly and debilitating drugs, while at the same time eschewing the use of liquor on “moral grounds.” They should find plenty of applicants in Washington. This is the kind of enemy we’re fighting and if this is “profiling,” so be it. (Just common sense)

Who Would Do It?

Who would give millions of dollars to people who don’t even know what zip code they’re in? That’s one of the excuses given by people in zip codes that don’t even exist, who got TARP money. The answer is simple: Democrats. I doubt THEY know which zip code they’re in. This is typical of the competence of the people who are spending our money today. Give millions to people in zip codes that do not even exist. They’re good at scamming us out of the money, but not so much at giving it to real people. (Washington Examiner)

"Overloaded With Information"

That’s the excuse given by Obama for not being able to “put together the pieces” and preventing the ”skivvy bomber” from ever getting on that airplane heading for Detroit. I wouldn’t be that upset about it if the bomber hadn’t tried so hard to alert us to what he was up to while we missed it altogether. “To judge from the news accounts, Umar Abdulmutallab did everything to get himself caught except wear an Osama bin Laden T-shirt onto that Northwest Airlines flight Christmas Day. Yet the danger didn’t dawn on anyone until he allegedly set himself on fire while trying to detonate the explosives hidden in his underwear.” (Steve Chapman). Google could have handled it. Why couldn’t our federal government? (Steve Chapman/Town Hall)

Dog and Pony Show

Recently, Obama held a much ballyhooed meeting with businesspeople to which he did not invite the representatives of the biggest business organization there is (National Chamber of Commerce). What purpose is gained by such a meeting? The question he was asking is “how to get business moving again?” Actually, he doesn’t need to ask people that question. The answer is obvious: stop taxing them into oblivion. Reagan and Bush LOWERED the tax base, and both times IMPROVED the business picture while RAISING the “tax take.” In Reagan’s case, it almost DOUBLED the “tax take. It is a proven fact that when you tax an activity, that activity stops or slows down. So all the new taxes Obama is proposing will make the business picture WORSE. If he was really intelligent, he’d realize that. So he’s either dumb, or just evil. (Just common sense)

But He's Lying!

Diane Sawyer gushes about Obama saying “the buck stops here.” But he’s lying through his teeth, as usual. Even while saying he’s responsible, he’s trying to blame everybody else but himself. His most oft-repeated words are “we inherited this” in one way or another, which is a transparent effort to blame George Bush for everything bad that happens, while ignoring Bush’s actions in everything good (such as continuing Reagan’s long-lasting “boom” created by further lowering taxes). (Media Research Center)

Liberal Stupidity

These are things you cannot disabuse liberals of, even though common sense tells you they’re stupid. One is that, to defend yourself, you must DISARM yourself. Never mind that guns in the world represent “toothpaste out of a tube.” You can’t put toothpaste back in a tube. You can’t “unring” a bell. So the whole idea that a CRIMINAL, whose whole life is spent breaking the law, will OBEY a law that says he/she can’t be armed is the very OPPOSITE of common sense. The same is true in international politics. Nuclear devices exist. Everybody who wants to know how to make them can learn how to do so. There is NO WAY you can eliminate them by making laws and treaties. What makes these ignorant politicians everywhere think they can eliminate nuclear devices, just by making an agreement? How stupid are these people who are running governments all over the world? The Nobel Committee gave Obama their Nobel Peace Prize, just for SAYING he wanted to “rid the world of nukes” while Vladimir Putin fired off a nuclear missile the same day they gave it to Obama, and gave them “the finger.” (Just common sense)

How About It, Al?

It’s getting harder and harder for AlGore to continue his “global warming” swindle. He’s already changed the name of his swindle to “climate change” because he just couldn’t answer questions about the continuing unusually cold weather and how THAT could be caused by global warming. I haven’t believed his bullderm from the start, and when he started forcing schoolchildren to watch his propaganda movie while schools told their parents if THEY didn’t come in and watch it, too, the kids would get lower grades, I knew I was right. Then he started saying “the debate is over,” that most scientists agreed with him, which I knew was a lie because I'd heard from climate scientists who say he's full of crap. Then he began saying those who don’t agree with him “are not in the mainstream of science. What gives him the idea he has the credentials to dictate just who is, and is not “in the mainstream of science” is beyond me. The whole idea that a ONE DEGREE temperature drop in 100YEARS was going to create such a terrible effect on the planet was silly to start with. As time went on and he became more and more strident in his claims, it became even more evident. Then came the extreme cold weather, including a freeze in Florida. Al, you’re already a BILLIONAIRE from this swindle, so give it up. It’s “wearing thin” and making you look like the fool you are. (Mail Times)

What The Hell?

“While simply enforcing existing safety measures would have prevented the recent Pantybomber incident, the TSA has instead instituted ever-more draconian rules that punish the innocent. Where does it end?” (Jacob Sullum) What good does it do us to stop people from going to the bathroom or having anything in their laps during the last hour of a flight? But they have to do SOMETHING that makes it look like they’re actually “taking action,” don’t they? It would be better if they just ENFORCED existing regs, but that wouldn’t make it look like they were doing their jobs, would it? (Atlasphere/Jacob Sullum)

Dodd Quits

Sen. Chris Dodd, Connecticut Senator forever, and the architect of the “Citizen’s Reinvestment Act of 1976,” the law that FORCED lenders to loan money to people who could not, WOULD not repay the money, which he KNEW would lead to an “economic meltdown” that would get many Democrats elected, including Barack Obama. He stole a lot of money while in office, and while Congress “forgave him” for that, he knew it could not go on much longer, and that he most likely would not be re-elected, so rather than “go down in flames” and not be able to get a good-paying job, he simply “landed” and announced his retirement, so he could keep all the money he stole and live out the rest of his life as a “hero” (to the Democrats, anyway). Too bad he couldn’t go out the same way as Ted Kennedy did. Some may say that is “mean spirited,” but I see no reason why one of the biggest crooks in government should be allowed to go on for years, living on his stolen money. In any case, they thought Rush Limbaugh had died, and they frankly said they wished he had. (Washington Post)

We're At War, Dammit!

This gullible government of ours, run by Obama and his “gang of thieves,” haven’t figured out yet that we are AT WAR! At war with people who want nothing more than to KILL everybody who doesn’t believe the same way they do! Obama and his goons want our soldiers to “read them their rights” when they capture a terrorist on the field of battle. What a stupid idea THAT is! He wants to give terrorists (foreign combatants) the same rights Americans have and bring them into the United States to try them. This is insanity! How did we manage to elect such a bunch of idiots to run this country? By not paying attention to what our politicians do, that’s how!

Nobody knew who Obama was when we elected him, and nobody (who doesn’t pay attention) knows today because they’re STILL not paying attention. But they’re beginning to do so. You can only rape and pillage people for so long before they figure it out. And that’s what Obama and his crowd have been doing since he was elected. We need to GET RID of Obama and all his accomplices as quickly as possible, beginning with his Democrat senators and representatives in Washington in 2010, and ending with Obama himself in 2012—or before, if it can be done. (Just common sense)

Nothing!

People like me, and Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Glenn Beck keep talking about the things Obama and his “gang of thieves” are doing to us, and what happens? NOTHING. We’re ignored, and it’s “business as usual. What do you have to do to get noticed in Washington? Go there with explosive skivvies? Sure, that’ll get you a prison term. But will it cause people to NOTICE what Obama and his crowd is doing to us? Not EVEN! I’m getting tired of telling people what they’re doing and being ignored. I’ve written two books (What’s Wrong IN America” and “Pay Attention to Politics! Both available on Amazon) about it and they aren’t making me rich and famous, though that wasn’t the reason I wrote them. I wrote them to hopefully break through the ranks of those who are ignoring what our own government is doing to us, but even THAT didn’t help. What’s it going to take to wake people up? (Just Common Sense)

Laughing At Palin

The liberals continue to promote Sarah Palin’s presidential bid without realizing it. They keep on laughing at her and ridiculing her and anybody who supports her. Meanwhile her book tops ALL the best-seller lists, which means lots of people want to read what she says, not what they say ABOUT her. They know that if she runs as an unabashed conservative and doesn’t allow people like her former running mate to dilute her message, she’ll win in a landslide, as Ronald Reagan (her “idol”) did—twice. That’s what frightens them about her and causes them to try their best to discredit her. Meanwhile, their attempts discredit THEM. They CLAIM to be “non-exclusionary,” but their very efforts to discredit this woman before she can oust Obama tell the tale. (Opposing Views)

A "Religion of Peace?"

People who aren’t too bright say Islam is a “religion of peace.” Why then, do they send people out to KILL a Danish cartoonist who drew a picture of Mohammed with a bomb in his turban? That isn’t very “peaceful.” Even if Muslim “holy men” didn’t “instruct” them to do this, they let it be known that it is something they would like to see. As a King once said, “Will nobody rid me of this man?” Causing one of his adherents to go out and kill the man in question. This is how Muslim “holy men” work. This way they can get their fools to do their work while they have “plausible deniability.” Meanwhile some foolish Muslims KILL their daughters if they change religions. Others punish the VICTIMS of rape while “slapping the hands” of the male rapist. This is a “religion of peace?” Don’t make me laugh. It hurts too much. (Yahoo News/AP)

He's An Idiot

Twenty-eight year old Robert Park announced his intention to enter N. Korea, carrying a letter to Kim Jong Il decrying the treatment of his citizens. His picture was in the news with the announcement, and what happened? He was “grabbed” and imprisoned. What did he expect? This guy is about five beers short of a six-pack and, unless our government agrees to something stupid in return for his release, he will spend a long time in a N. Korea prison. (Yahoo News/AP)

Civil War

They’re getting ready to have a civil war in Iran to get rid of the insane dictator and the Mullahs running things. They apparently don’t have a death wish like Ahmadinijerk does. I figure it won’t be long before they drag him out of his palace and through the streets after killing him. They know if he drops ONE nuke anywhere in the world, the entire country could become a steaming pile of rubble—and they don’t want that. The Mullahs won’t take long to flee, as they did once before. Imprisoning protesters and sentencing people to long prison terms for writing a paper criticizing their “rulers” doesn’t help any. If I lived in such a tightly-run country, I wouldn’t be doing what I do. It would be my own death wish. Even in this country it might mean that I die in prison if Obama continues to take more and more control and move toward a dictatorship.

Stories Ignored By the Media in 2009

One story is about the self-described communist Obama appointed to be the “green jobs czar.” Only un the “alternative media” did you hear about that. The liberal media wouldn’t TOUCH it until forced to do so. Obama has appointed countless other “czars,” with nary a word about them in the liberal media. Kevin Jennings, the far left activist who was named to be Obama’s “safe schools czar.” He’s the guy who was pushing for KINDERGARTENERS to be taught about gay sex. What the hell do we need a "safe school;s czar" for? We HAVE a Secretary of Education to do that unnecessary job. I guess the key is that "czars" don't need to be vetted by Congress. I could name a lot more, but I’ll let Michelle Malkin do that. (Michelle Malkin)

The Tax Racket

Many years ago, I read a book called “The Tax Racket” by Martin Gross. It was a revelation to me. I found out I was paying MORE then 50% of my income in taxes. Including all the HIDDEN taxes, fees, and licenses at all levels I was forced to buy to live my life, it all added up to more than HALF my income. Most of these taxes are imposed upon us by liberals, who think the answer to ANY problem is more taxes. They literally HATE a tax reduction and will cheerfully let Bush’s tax reductions “sunset,” which will be to this time the single biggest tax increase in history. But that’s not all. They just passed the health care swindle and when Obama signs it, IT will be the biggest tax swindle ever. This book is still available, and if you want an epiphany in your own life, you’ll read it.

Health Care Swindle Unconstitutional

But they don’t care. They intend to impose it on us anyway, and depend on the liberal Supreme Court Justices to not DECLARE it so. ALL the Republicans present in Congress have done so, but if you think that will stop the Democrats from ripping us off, you’d better think again. Democrats disdain to even NOTICE what the Republicans do unless one of them votes WITH the Democrats. Then they call it a victory. If they don’t, they call the Republicans stupid for not realizing what they voted against. The bad part of it is the Republicans DO realize what they voted against. That’s why they voted against it.

The System Worked!

. . . Not! The system is geared to find weapons that are metal-based, not Jockey shorts based. So this would-be terrorist failed to blow up his plane due to his own incompetence and the diligence and heroism of several passengers and flight crew members, and a lot of luck that the detonator did not work. If it had, those passengers and crew would now be dead, and so would the terrorist. The terrorists WILL get better at training their fools, and soon one WILL work if we don’t get better at keeping such people off airplanes. Like local gun laws, which provide an unlimited supply of unarmed victims to criminals, who do NOT obey laws that say they can’t be armed. All the new “regulations” do is make it more unpalatable to fly without doing ANYTHING to stop would-be terrorists and their explosive shorts from boarding. (Cliff May/Town Hall)

What Is America?

“Now, well over two centuries after winning independence from the British Empire, America is [or was, until Obama -RT] the freest, wealthiest, most powerful nation on Earth. Along the way it established sovereign nationhood, settled a continent and more and brought unprecedented prosperity to its citizens. It survived a devastating Civil War that threatened its very life, abolished slavery and raised up the emancipated to be citizens equal to their one-time masters. It triumphed in two world wars fought on foreign soil and a decades-long struggle against worldwide communism that, 20 years ago, led to the fall of the Berlin Wall and collapse of the Soviet Union.” (The Heritage Foundation) Why were we so successful? Successful enough that this country was more powerful that nations that had been around for thousands of years? CAPITALISM and free will! Obama is moving us closer and closer to collectivism, a system that has failed every time it has been tried. Get RID of this stupid jerk before he destroys this country. (Just common sense)

Budget Buster

I’d call the newly authorized by Congress but not yet signed by Obama “heath care swindle” bill a “budget-buster” if he hadn’t already busted the budget with his other actions. His “believers” (aka: "dupes") elected him to accomplish “change,” and we’re getting “change,” all right. He’s changing this nation from the leader of the world; one all other countries looked up to, to a country that can’t make it without loans from other countries such as communist China and communist Venezuela (both of whom will ultimately fail). Communism has failed, according to liberals (but the SAME PEOPLE are still in charge, they just SAY they’re not communists any more). But notice who is propping us up today as our new president moves us ever closer to collectivism (Socialism, fascism, etc. Communist countries always "prop up" other socialist, communist countries as long as they can.)? Yes, we’re getting “change.” But not the kind of change we want. Everything he does today, Americans are against. But he and his fellow swindlers don’t care. They intend to get what they can, while they can. In doing so, they have gaily spent more money in ONE YEAR than this entire government has spent since its inception! We need to get RID of Obama and his “gang of thieves” as quickly as possible and begin the process of repairing the damage they have done, if possible. (Town Hall)
