America Get's Direction from the President

Obama's advice on how to lower our dependence on foreign oil and curb the high cost of gas at the pump.

The Old One Two Punch

If you feel like you were force fed with the health care reform bill, you're not the only one. Over 50% of U.S. citizens were not in favor of this bill, but the President, and the far left members of our legislative branch don't care what we think. They just want us to be quiet and get with the program. They think they are like parents of little children; they know better, what is good for us, and what isn't.

So on the heels of this forced legislation, many people are asking why President Obama is planning to drill for oil. It seems off task to the liberal agenda, doesn't it. Well it is, but let me tell you why he is doing it.

First, he is always in campaign mode, so he wants to bring his popularity back up. It's like he is saying; here you guys, I know that health care thing hurt a little bit, but here is a little bone for you to chew on so you feel better.

Second, he is softening the blow for the next liberal cram session, which is mandating fuel emissions for ALL U.S. automobiles. Just watch, he will say; I know you don't want this emissions thing, but look what I did for you, I let you drill for oil.

Make no mistake, Obama is politically savvy. Everything he does has purpose, and it does not have anything to do with government for the people and by the people. It's more about his next election and furthering his socialist leaning liberal agenda.

Progressive Judge

Another example of the difference between what Obama wants and what Americans want.

Obama 9th Circuit Nominee: Constitution Must Adapt to Changes in the World.

Anti-Terrorist, or Anti-American

Attorney General Eric Holder is a troubling figure on the American political landscape. It is safe to say that Mr. Holder leans to the left. Among other things he wants to limit public access to guns, and he worked for the NAACP. But what is most troubling is his posture on terrorism.

First he was instrumental in the sentence reduction of 16 terrorists from the Puerto Rican terrorist organization, Boricua Popular Army. This terrorist group has been fighting against the U.S. since the early seventies. They have killed our military personnel, and they robbed a Wells Fargo Bank annex of over 7 million dollars.

Second, Mr. Holder decided to hand key terrorists held at Guantanamo Bay over to the civilian court system, which enables them to have the same rights as a car thief or a convenience store robber. This decision will undoubtedly help the terrorists make a mockery of our judicial system and cost tax payers hundreds of millions of dollars.

Third, his direction ripped the underwear bomber out of the hands of FBI interrogators, where he was read his miranda rights, and subsequently he stopped talking. Precious information could have been obtained from this novice terrorist, but instead Eric Holder Made sure he was protected like a U.S. citizen. We will never know what future plot we might have been able to thwart through the interrogation efforts of the FBI. In the end it might mean many American lives.

Eric Holder is obviously a product of the liberal education system. He is a detached ideologue. and he can't connect the dots between common sense and the values he possesses. Unfortunately, there are others in power, like Mr. Holder, who are undermining our beloved American way of life.

How can the office of Attorney General be handed to someone so un-American, unless his boss is the same?

Be Prepared

Whatever he says tonight, remember he is desperate. Things aren't going his way. He's worried about his popularity. He needs to say whatever he can to turn the momentum around.

When he talks about freezing discretionary spending, it's a trick. It sounds like he's doing the right thing. Hey, he's not going to spend anymore money - cool. Nope! It's a trick! He'll act like he's giving you what you want, but in reality that "freeze" means we can't go back on any of the huge spending plans he made in 2009.

Don't believe the Hype.

First Scott Brown takes over Kennedy's seat in the senate, and now Air America, the ultra liberal radio show goes bankrupt. This has been a good week, and hopefully the indication of a good year, culminating in the senate elections in November. The GOP is on a comeback, and if there are more Scott Brown's out there. We are going to be alright.

Contrast the reception and extended hand across the isle we saw in Scott Brown, with the angry, polarizing, confrontational attitude of the illegitimate Senator from Minnesota, Al Franken. It's no wonder why the people see the GOP as a better party to lead this country.

Al Franken helped to bankrupt Air America, now let's see what he does in the Senate.

Leftist Contempt for the American People

The left doesn't care what Americans think, or want. Their attitude is what they believe is right, even if they are in the minority. They have contempt for the average American. Their political agenda trumps all. That is how they can ignore the fact that a life is being killed during an abortion.

Eric Holder is a perfect example of the lack of empathy and reason that comes from the Liberals in Washington. In a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, he stood before the American People and the family members of the victims of 9/11, and stated that justice will be served. They didn't seem to care that a woman in attendance had a letter signed by 100,000 people opposing this decision.

Apparently, by the time this information was presented, most of the Democrat Senators had left the meeting.

The illegitimate Senator from Minnesota.

Hey Al, you won your election by 300 votes, but how many votes did ACORN get for you. You are not a legitimate Senator, you are a farce, a fake, a scam artist. You wrote a book on people who lie, and you use lies to refute the truth. You are the liar. To sum it up, you are a leftist Democrat.

Good Old Joe

Joe Biden is the gift that keeps on giving. If he were a Republican, the news media and the late show bunch would be having a field day, and old Joe would be reduced to the status of Court Jester, for the Obama administration. However, since Joe is a top level Democrat, he gets a huge pass through the media gauntlet.

Here is old Joe's latest doozie, talking before an AARP Town hall group.

“And folks look, AARP knows and the people with me here today know, the president knows, and I know, that the status quo is simply not acceptable,” Biden said at the event on Thursday in Alexandria, Va. “It’s totally unacceptable. And it’s completely unsustainable. Even if we wanted to keep it the way we have it now. It can’t do it financially.”

“We’re going to go bankrupt as a nation,” Biden said.

“Now, people when I say that look at me and say, ‘What are you talking about, Joe? You’re telling me we have to go spend money to keep from going bankrupt?’” Biden said. “The answer is yes, that's what I’m telling you.”

Man Up!

It is my opinion that in the past 30 years or so, manliness has been reduced to almost nothing. The liberal media has socially castrated men. We are at the point where anything resembling a purely male characteristic is viewed in a negative light. Men are archaic, knuckle draggers, historic throw backs from the stone age.

We are depicted in movies, songs, and commercials, as insensitive, stupid, morons, who act like we have received a frontal lobotomy.

I think it is time we man up and celebrate our macho tendencies. Let's re-discover our masculinity, and celebrate it. Let's squash the metro sexual image that feminist and gay activists love to push on us. Let's go fishing and camping. Let's opt for the barber shop instead of the hair salon. Let's go watch an action flick, by ourselves, because we're man enough to do something without anyone else.

I have found a website that has been a revelation to me, and I would like to share it with you.

Write a Letter

OK, I know nobody reads my blog, but I'm going to write this anyway.

Everyone write a letter. Write a letter to your Congressman, Governor, Mayor, Supervisor, The President, Vice-President, any government official you want. We can't accept what is happenning to our country. We need to stand up and be heard. The government is taking over our lives, in every single aspect. They are telling us how much energy we can consume, they are going to tell us how and when we can have medical care. They are taking over our largest private sector companies. They want to take away our guns, and they want to minimize our ability to worship. They want to take away our hard earned money and give it to people who didn't work for it. Our current administration is way far left wing, and they are intent on destroying our traditional way of life. They want to be similar to a european socialist government.

We can't just sit back and watch this happen. We are not far from eliminating the abiity to call this great nation FREE.

Who's the Real Dummy

As you know, Sarah Palin has been bombarded with criticism from the leftist, mainstream media machine, ever since she was picked as a Vice-President hopeful on the GOP ticket. This onslaught of criticism and mean spirited reporting is reminiscent of the Dan Quayle assassination during the George H. W. Bush years. I would just like to ask one question. Why does Joe Biden get a pass? Why is he not characterized as the old idiotic buffoon that he is?

We all know the answer - I just needed to get that off my chest.

Hooray for John Voight

Wow! I never thought I'd see the day when someone really criticizing Obama made it on the news. Did you see the wonderful oration given by none other than the famous actor, John Voight? Very Impressive. I new old Johnny leaned to the right, (which really makes his daughter Angelia Jolie happy). But I had no idea how far right he really was. John Voight is my new hero. He had the intestinal fortitude to stand up and give his true opinion about Obama. And for that. He'll probably never work in Hollywood again, but that will be good for him. Maybe he'll take up politics.

Here is a couple of his gems from that speech:

- Obama is a "soft-spoken Julius Cesar."
- He describes our new foreign policy as "getting together with enemies in a little playground."
- He also describes Obama as a "false prophet."

Facts disprove warnings about global warming
by William Robert Johnston
in The Brownsville Herald, April 4, 2001, p. A10
A long time ago kings and rulers might be advised by magicians, astrologers, and other charlatans. These mystics would prey on leaders--and through them, on entire societies--by using the false superstitious beliefs of all involved. These people mostly went away with the advent of science.
But they're back--this time using the name of science. A vocal minority of the scientific community, with the help of unqualified outsiders, has persuaded many politicians to pursue plans that would be economically devastating. The story this time is global warming.
The "global warmers" produced the Kyoto treaty of 1997. However, the facts completely disprove what these people are saying about climate change.
We've all heard the stories, reported as indisputable fact: The last century or decade is just about the hottest the world has ever been. Carbon dioxide from burning gasoline and coal is blamed. Unless their solution is enacted right now, temperatures will rise terribly in the next century. Icecaps will start to melt, coasts will flood, storms will get worse, diseases will spread, animals will die, and more. And it's all because of us Americans.
The best lies contain a measure of truth. Yes, carbon dioxide in the air has increased in the last century due to the use of fossil fuels. Yes, global average temperature has increased 0.8 degrees F in the same century. Unfortunately, the temperature increase came first: most of the temperature increase was before 1940, and most of the new carbon dioxide was added after 1960. Would you trust a "scientist" who said the result came before the cause?
There are other problems, as well. Solar activity may be the cause of the world temperature changes. The global warmers can't explain why satellites show no temperature change in the past 20 years. The computer models that predict disaster in a century have been completely wrong for the past 20 years. And no one can agree on the side effects.
Scientific facts actually helped unravel the treaty last year. Carbon dioxide is removed from the air by various natural and manmade processes, and world leaders couldn't agree on how to credit for this. No one wanted the U.S. to get credit for removals of carbon dioxide, so negotiations faltered.
Most scientists use facts and logic to reach conclusions. It's no surprise that over 17,000 scientists and engineers have signed a petition calling for rejection of the Kyoto treaty. This overshadows any collection of scientists that have endorsed the treaty.
The global warmers have failed to prove that man has caused a problem. This hasn't stopped them from demanding we act, and act now.
The Kyoto Protocol called for the U.S. and other western nations to shoulder most of the limits on fossil fuel energy use. Developing countries suffer little or no restrictions.
Those countries are obviously enthusiastic. The economic powerhouses would have their hands tied, while would-be competitors like mainland China would not.
President Bush has sided with the scientific facts in recently declining to implement the Kyoto limits. After all, the treaty is so bad the Senate opposed it 95 to zero.
Bush and Congress must go further. They should refuse any regulation of carbon dioxide emissions whatsoever.
Consider the impact of the restrictions still promoted by some. The U.S. would have to put a 50 to 100 % tax on gasoline, heating fuels, and most electricity. Local farmers and landowners will face bureaucratic restrictions hindering the use of land. In south Texas, the result would just be massive inflation and unemployment. In the developing world, suffering economies would cause starvation and death. And for all this, the restrictions can't be shown to make any difference to world climate.
The primary advocates of global warming remain the environmentalists. They propose a drastic solution to a non-existent problem--a solution which is, amazingly, the same political policy they have unsuccessfully sought to impose for decades. Many of their leaders oppose free markets and seek to limit human development, and global warming is currently the best means to these ends. If people are hurt in the process, so be it.
The current power supply problems in California are a perfect example. They are not a consequence of true deregulation, but of environmental and anti-free market restrictions on power production. This is the same thing proposed in Kyoto, and the same thing still promoted by some Washington leaders.
As you watch your gas and electricity bills go up, recognize this as only a taste of what could have been under Kyoto--and what could still be, if environmental politics and big government win out over free markets and scientific facts.

Global Warming - NOT

Obama on 60 Minutes

Big surprise! Steve Croft's interview of Obama, on 60 Minutes was another game of softball with the President and the liberal media. It's like Croft was saying, "here let me lob this one to you, so you can hit it out of the park." Give me a break.

They set the whole thing up by stating that Obama has, "the most difficult job on the world." In other words they were saying, let's be understanding of the mistakes, because his job is so hard. Do you think Bush would have received the same treatment?

On Guantanamo Bay, Croft just let him rail about Cheney, and didn't once follow up with an opposing question. He totally let him side step the FACT that interrogating Guantanamo detainees saved hundreds, if not thousands of American lives, due to thwarted terrorist plots. I don't know how Obama can completely ignore that single, extremely important fact, and get away with it.

Hindsight

Given the current state of the economy, who do you think would have been a better GOP pick, and President of the United States of America.

Just Put It on the Taxpayer

OK, so she needs a jet to fly home, I get that. OK, so she needs a bigger jet than they used to use for the speaker of the house because she has to fly farther, I get that too. But, here is where I draw the line. Pelosi uses the taxpayer funded jet to fly on boondoggles to Europe? She books a high frequency of flights to San Francisco, so she can have the plane ready if she needs it? Then she cancels a high number of the scheduled flights, which still get paid for, due to late cancellation?

Give me a break!

No, no, no, no, no! This is ridiculous.
