Angry illegals threaten war between Mexico and United States.  Vandalism erupts.  Calls in Phoenix to "Burn This Racist City." 

Isn't this a fine kettle of stew?  They are here illegally and now they are threatening us about how to run our country. 

How many of these goons are members of the S.E.I.U. or the AFL-CIO? How many of them are following the lead of Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson?  

Obama will save us.  He will gather Nancy and Harry together, along with some of his closest and most trusted advisers from Goldman Sachs, and they'll figure it out.  

Let's see now... A billion here, a billion there, billions and trillions everywhere!  That'll do it!

OBAMA: UNANSWERED QUESTIONS

Back in 2008 when then Senator Barack Hussein Obama was a mere candidate for the Presidency, several legitimate news sources questioned the practices of the campaign fundraising machine. There were, for example, many stories about multi-millions of dollars in foreign contributions coming into the campaign coffers. There were tales about money going out of the campaign coffers to fund ACORN activities.

I’m just curious as to why no one ever followed up on these stories. Just where did that foreign money come from? Was any of it S.E.I.U. money, or Goldman Sachs money or AIG money or other large donations funneled through some auspicious foreign source? Could it even be that some foreign government sent in a large chunk of money in anticipation of some international favor down the road? I think it was Moammar Ghadafi who said at the time that the whole Arab world was getting behind Obama. I know it’s none of my business because I’m just a lowly pissant, and that’s probably why the Federal Election Commission decided to give the Obama organization a blanket “pass” on its campaign financing, right? I mean, even though the FEC had admonished the campaign many times over its practices and although some “shady” contributions had to be returned in 2007 and 2008, the FEC announced right after Obama was inaugurated that no investigation of his finances would be conducted.

As for the ACORN thing, I did hear something about that organization providing electrical work for staging of some campaign rally, or something like that. ACORN is well-known for its electrical expertise, among other things, isn’t it?

Way back when, a “peach of a guy” by the name of Anthony Rezko supported Obama when he ran for the Illinois State Senate. In 2003, when Obama decided to run for the U.S. Senate, Rezko held a campaign kick-off and fundraising party at his mansion. A few months after Obama won his Senate seat, money moved from one Nadhmi Auchi to Rezko and both Rezko’s wife and Obama ended up buying adjoining land on the same day; Obama’s was his new house, Rezko’s was a “garden plot.” Later, as Rezko was under indictment, Obama purchased part of the “garden plot” to add to his own property in a deal that was under banking investigation amid allegations that the land appraisal was “doctored.” Whatever happened to that story?

Rashid Khalidi, an avid pro-Palestinian supporter, got $75,000 from Obama and William “Bill” Ayers and the Woods Foundation. Later, Khalidi hosted a fundraiser for Obama and still later, while the Obamas were frequent dinner guests with the Khalidi family, Obama gave him a totally warm send off as he was preparing to leave Chicago for New York. Khalidi even sponsored a page on Obama’s Presidential Campaign website. When pressed about his relationship with Khalidi, Obama denied the relationship and threw Khalidi under the bus. How does that story end?

Nadhmi Auchi is one of Britain’s wealthiest men with a longest list of shady associations and deals and who had extensive ties to Saddam Hussein, who he helped bring to power. Auchi is a convicted felon in France. Auchi yielded great power over Rezko. Auchi was the source of a very large sum of money which went to Rezko just before Rezko and Obama made their great land deal. One Joseph Aramanda Sr., an associate of Rezko, reportedly received a $375,000 kickback in the deal. As a side note of interest, the land and Obama’s house were purchased from a Chicago doctor for…. $375,000 less than the asking price. Did anyone ever follow that tale up?

Remember the infamous Bill Ayers, husband of Bernadine Dohrn? Together, they were quite an item in the Weathermen Underground when they bombed the World Trade Center. Unrepentant Ayers has many times said he wished and still wishes he could have done more. Dohrn was employed at the Chicago Law Firm where Michelle L. Robinson was employed and where, as a matter of further coincidence, Barack Obama became employed. This nice and cozy relationship blossomed over the years with Bill Ayers serving on several committees and boards along with Rezko and/or Obama. Upon learning of Obama’s decision to enter politics, Ayers and Dohrn hosted a party at their house to kick off the political journey that led Obama to the Presidency. Although he had previously admitted it and although that party is well documented in several major newspapers, Obama denied that the party ever occurred during a McCain-Obama debate. What about that? 

And, as Obama stepped into the Oval Offfice, Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich stepped into deep dung amid charges he was selling Obama's former Senate seat and that Obama was trying to dictate the winner.  What ever happened to that?  Why the big White House cover-up?   

I guess with the media we have these days, we never will know the answers to these questions, not that it matters.  Or does it?

The election season is warming up and the mud slinging is beginning.  If I've learned anything about politicians, it's that they tend to sling mud when they are not able to address the issues or when they fear their opponent's abilities to win. 

Look for the mudslingers and cross them off your list of potential candidates.

NOVEMBER 101: WHO DO WE VOTE FOR?

If I’ve heard it once, I’ve heard it a million times: “I’m so confused; I don’t know who to believe anymore.” Actually, when I hear those words, I am encouraged because, just a year ago, these same people were adamant in their denial, insisting that Washington was doing the right things and that the country was not headed for problems. Even as we got into the heat of the health care debate, they defiantly stood their ground, and the President’s, by insisting that we had to do something.

That they have come to the point of questioning what the truth is, is a gigantic leap forward. Granted, they are now facing the frustrating task of trying to catch up with the rest of us, to assimilate information…good information, and to reach sound conclusions.

I empathize with their frustration. When I awoke one morning to discover that the Republican Party was not the answer to everything that ails America, when I realized that, just like the Democrats, there was no limit to their level of corruption or lack of ethics, I was disillusioned and heartbroken. I rebelled, just like the Obama believers and the rest of the Democrats have rebelled. When your belief bubble bursts, just who can you trust?

So, are you just going to run around in frustration, or are you going to go ahead and have hot, sensuous sex? Why not? Jump in; this “soak and poke” hot tub has plenty of room.

It doesn’t matter whether you are a Democrat, Republican or independent; we all agree on some basic things. Our government is not listening to us. Spending is out of control and our national debt is in crisis. We need a good national health care policy, but what got shoved down our throats is not what it was represented to be and does not solve the problems. The power of the people is being usurped. Both the Democrats and the Republicans have done a damned poor job of representing us in Washington.

Yes, there are other fundamental issues that divide Republicans and Democrats, but we can agree on many things. Now, we are faced with upcoming elections in November and where do we start, how do we decide how to vote to clean this “culture of corruption” in Washington up? And, it is a culture. It has been ongoing for decades and has involved both parties.

The only way to change a culture is to shock it into reality. Right now, THEY are the ones in denial. THEY are the ones who think they are entitled to behave as they have been behaving. THEY are the ones who think they are the high potentates of our country and we are the pissants. But, our government is a government of the people and our elected representatives are supposed to be our servants.

How do we shock them into reality?

Turnout. We have to turnout in November in the masses to vote, regardless of party. And, we have to turnout every damned incumbent we can. Every House seat is up for grabs. Let’s turn them all out… every last one of them, Republican or Democrat. Let’s clean the slate and start new. Only a third of the Senate seats are up for grabs, but we can turn those guys out of office, too; I guarantee you the remaining two-thirds, faced with such results, will get the message.

So will the White House.

If we end up with the exact same numbers of Democrats and Republicans that we have in Congress right now, but every one of them is new and every one of them is a true American patriot who has the spine to stand on their principles and for what their constituents believe and to uphold our Constitution, we will have pushed one big wind of fresh air into our nation’s Capitol. We can do that.

Start now in the primaries. Let’s not wait until November. If you have a Democrat incumbent being challenged, vote for the challenger. If several people are vying for the same nomination, pick the one with the least political experience and the most business acumen. Same for the Republicans. Whatever you do, don’t return the incumbent to Washington because he or she has been infected by the “culture” bug.

When we get to November, it will be ideal if we have a new Republican facing a new Democrat so that we can make wise decisions based on who is best for the job and on our values instead of who we dislike the least. God knows that we have been faced with those decisions for many years… who we hate the most or dislike the least as a basis for our vote. What a “change” we can make if this happens!

Being successful in this means we have to get off our duffs and pay close attention to the candidates. Forget the ads; every politician running is going to either lie or omit some facts. They will make promises they know they cannot keep. What we need to see are politicians who will debate the issues on their merits instead of avoiding the issues and simply slinging mud. “I don’t care what an asshole the opponent is, I care about YOU and what your intentions are in meeting MY expectations. I’m the boss, Mr. or Ms. Candidate, and YOU are the prospective employee. Show me, tell me who you really are and spare me your opinion of your opponent, because I’m going to find those facts out for myself.”

Don’t be frustrated. Don’t be embarrassed. Don’t be intimidated. YOU are in charge here; YOU’RE the boss. And, you should be proud of yourself for admitting that you need to dig into this game and to learn the rules and the stats.  Just like football and baseball, you need to study it to be good at it. You need to get to know the players and you need to start planning now for an election-night block party.  In fact, why not have some pre-election parties?  Invite some friends over and just talk about some of the issues you have and who could best win the game for you. 

Let’s take our country back and get ourselves back into the game.  We can do it.

HOW TO END NATIONAL DEBT

SPECIAL POST

As it is, Congress has absolutely no constraints when it comes to spending our money.  If there's not enough money to go around, they simply raise taxes or institute new taxes.  If they can't raise taxes, they print more money.  I cannot remember any occasion in the past 40 years where the government has actually reduced spending on anything.  

I propose that we freeze all government wages for the next 10 years, including Congress.  The next step is to create a bonus pool.  Out of every dollar that they decrease the federal deficit based on actual spending, (not budgeted spending), we'll take 25% or 30% and throw it into the bonus pool.  At the end of each year, we'll divide the pool up among Congress and government employees. 

Within 10 years, we can be a debt free nation.

WHAT NEXT? FOCUS ON OUR FUTURE

Here we stand at the crossroads of America, now knowing all too well that our government is in the hands of far left radical extremists who are intent on dismantling our country as we know it. There can be no doubt at this point that the many steps they have taken are the steps of a novice President or an ill-informed or inept Congress; instead, their path is deliberate, well-orchestrated and planned.

It is not that we wanted him to fail as a President, but Obama has proven himself to be a traitor to our American ideals; his thirsty quest for power is self-evident proof of his calloused disregard for our roots and our culture. It is his failure, not ours, that has quelled the dreams of those who followed him, admired him, voted for him and stood by him. Now he stands defiantly, already claiming victory and daring us to try and do something about it.

In other blunt words, those of us who love our country, its history and everything it stands for are now engaged at war with those who don’t. And, it IS a war; we can no longer pretend to ourselves that it is anything less. We are in a fight for our survival against those who mock our guns, our religion, our capitalism and our free will; they tread upon the honor of those who died defending and making America what it is.

Time is of the essence; we can no longer afford the luxury of pretending to ourselves that we are facing anything less. They are absolutely determined to achieve their goals and they have proven themselves to be a formidable enemy. I may be the Paul Revere of the 21st century but, this time it is not the British who are coming, it’s the radical left-wing Marxist Progressives, and their objective is to seize the power of self-governance and the will of freedom from the hearts and minds of the people. They are well on their way to achieving their goals.

The time has come for us to make a commitment to ourselves, to each other, and to our country that we are willing to give everything we have to the cause of winning. This means every free minute of every hour, every spare dollar in our purses and wallets, our homes, our cars, our furniture and even, if necessary, our lives… must be devoted to our cause. Surely, we would hope that we can defeat them at the polls in November soundly enough to end the war peacefully, but we must also understand that if we fail in this endeavor, things could get real ugly.

To be successful, we must turn our journalism into words of encouragement for those who are willing to get down in the trenches and into the enemy faces, to put in the hours, to raise the money, to choose and back the candidates to win in November. We must turn our voices from words of disgust and hatred for what is being done to us into positive words that will help us to achieve victory in November.

We cannot rely on the Republican Party; they are in disarray and lack of leadership. We are going to have to do the homework necessary to determine who the candidates are we will back; be they Republican, Democrat or Independent they must be patriotic to the restoration of our Constitution, the strength of our economy and the future of our liberties and freedoms. They must seek to restore the values of a just and honest society and they must be willing to listen to and abide by the will of the people.

We must stand up and, as I have said countless times, we must work elbow to elbow, shoulder to shoulder, in an endless and relentless battle to eliminate the “regime” of Progressive Marxism and Socialism from the powerful corridors of Washington. Only when the objective has been achieved and the enemy has been defeated can we return to our political two-party system. Until then, we must set those differences aside in the common and mutual interests of winning this war. We must be the unified militia of resistance.

There is much to be accomplished in a very short period of time. It appears to me that our best beginning is join with the American Tea Party and to support them in their efforts for November, because they are well down the road of this battle already and we must not waste any time; time is not on our side. We must not stray from the road back to democracy. We cannot let their rancorous words deter us from what must be done.

This is a call to action. This is a call to join the grassroots army of Americans who are already on the front lines. This is a call from our forefathers on behalf of our children. We cannot, we must not, fail. Don’t even give it a second thought; just do it. Join us. Let's walk the walk. Let’s roll!

WHITE HOUSE DISCUSSING 20% VALUE-ADDED NATIONAL SALES TAX!!!

SPECIAL POST

Paul A. Volcker, a chief economic adviser to President Obama, says that a 15-20% value-added national sales tax, in addition to the rising income taxes, proposed Cap and Trade, and state sales and income taxes, is necessary to cover the costs of the national debt and new Health Care Program.  

My fellow Americans, we need to get off of our fannies and stop all of this bullshit.  Enough is enough.

ATTENTION BARRY, NANCY AND HARRY: We Americans Have HAD It With Your Sick Style Of Governance

We the people… WETHE PEOPLEWE, THE PEOPLE! Yes, dammit….the people down at the ends of your pious, lying noses require your attention. Who are we? We’re the ones who run this country. You, despite your egotistical beliefs that YOU are the ones who run the country, are the real pissants in the American scheme of things.

Does that language and truth offend you?

Good! YOUR language, actions and lies offend US. You have proven yourselves to be traitors to the will of the people.

Although you assert otherwise, you work for us. Your Marxist diatribes, your outright lies, misinformation, disinformation and devious ways are not acceptable and will no longer be tolerated or allowed.

I repeat: We will no longer tolerate or allow your bull.  You have violated the terms of your contracts. 

Start packing your bags. Don’t worry about wrinkles. 

If you don't like the message, that's your problem, not ours.

HEALTH CARE STENCH

SPECIAL POST

Less than two weeks after Health Care legislation was manured past public opinion, ominous details and hidden agendas are beginning to ooze out.  And the Democrats who voted for it are pretending to be surprised.  


One of the hidden provisions gives the President power to nationalize doctors and other medical professionals.  Did you know that?  Another tells states they will have to absorb additional costs and orders them to raise taxes to cover those costs or to face federal funding cuts.  That is a blatant violation of states rights.  Under this scenario, we can expect that Rahmbo is on the horn to governors and attorneys general from the states that are filing legal actions right, telling them to drop their litigation or they are going to lose highway funds and ARA grants.  And, of course, there's the outright nationalization of the student loan program without any debate or discussion in Congress. 


Then there's the disturbing fact that Stupak and the ten others who were against the bill on the basis of the paid abortion issue filed for $4.7 billion in earmark legislation the day after the health bill was passed.  Now comes news that Obama wants to open of the gulf and part of the Atlantic Coast for oil exploration; not revealed was the fact that he intends to close down some fields in Alaska.  Who would benefit from this?  Louisiana and Mary Landreau, for one.  Who would be hurt?  Alaska and Sarah Palin.  


Finally, and on the same subject, major companies and corporations are now analyzing their businesses to determine how best to deal with the enormous hits they are taking to their bottom lines as a result of the loss of tax breaks for providing insurance programs to their employees and retirees.  Will they lay off?  Will they raise prices?  Will they ship more jobs overseas?  Will they drop company health benefits altogether and force employees to far-less coverage on the government system? 


I continue to say that this legislation is the worst piece of legislation to ever be passed by any Congress in the history of this country and, since Obama knew what he was doing in the process, I believe there are grounds for impeachment here.  Those are strong words, I know.  But, we need to be made full cognizant of everything hidden in these 2,700 pages of legislation; who knows what other wonderful jewels Pelosi, Reid and Obama tucked away in there? 


That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
