Conservatism Sells
I haven't seen the movie Avatar, and from what I have heard about it, I probably never will. I refuse to see a movie that puts our military in a bad light, period. More than one person has told me this movie portrays the military, particularly the Marines, as hired thugs that oppress native people for the purpose of exploitation by resource hungry Americans. I reject this premise and the people that made this movie. Our military is the best and most honorable in the history of the world and I refuse to hand my money over to see a movie that states or implies otherwise. I am so sick and tired of leftists telling lies about things they have no clue about. None of them have ever been in the military and none of them believe we have our freedoms because of the military. Evil from within, which are the leftists, must be defeated and their lies and insinuations like Avatar must be rebutted and not left to be undisputed. The movie from what I hear is a big hit but I believe that is due to the special effects and other aspects and not from it's underlying political message. Movies would be alot more fun for me if I were ignorant to the political jabs, but unfortunately I do not have the luxury of ignorant bliss. I can put up with some of that but I find myself less tolerant as time goes on. Hollywood keeps this up at it's own peril because sooner or later, like with leftist news, and alternative will emerge and crush them. I have a solution but not the means to accomplish it.
Every Conservative I know can rattle off a list of actors that they will not pay to see because they are so blatantly anti-American. When I see American actors like Sean Penn and Danny Glover embracing leftist dictators like Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro it instantly stops me from ever watching or paying to watch anything they are involved with artistically. It's not a boycott, it's simply funneling my discretionary entertainment money to actors that I believe are America lovers and not America haters. It's the same thing as if you had a bad experience with one car brand and a good experience with another. You are probably going to stick with the good experience and not go back to the bad. I wish I had the money and the know-how to create an alternative to Hollywood. What a success it would be. It would be a brand with a Conservative seal of approval that you could trust to be wholesome and fiercely loyal to God, Family, and America. Leftist Hollywood would wither and die with such an alternative. I propose a Conservative Hollywood if you will, located in a Conservative state, run and owned by Conservatives living the Conservative credo. Patriotic movies are what I want personally, and movies that are good for children and the whole family to see. Movies that point out American exceptionalism and promote it. Is that alot to ask for? I don't think it is. Most people do not want to see movies about people and their abhorrent lifestyles or anti-American movies or pot smoking movies. Very few of us want to see that, and no true Conservative wants to see that.
It isn't just the movie business that the left has infiltrated and stained. Any venue or information source you can think of and the leftists are there trying to take over and turn them into outlets to convince people that Marxism re-labeled as "progressive" is the compassionate way to go. You name it, books, magazines, movies, television, newspapers, the internet, broadcast news, even school books are starting to spew their propaganda as fact. However, whenever there is a Conservative alternative, it destroys the leftist propaganda everytime. The FOXNews Channel is a shining example of this. I remember when FOXNews broadcast their first day because I was watching. It was incredible to finally get an alternative to all of the garbage that we all had been fed for decades. The cable news leader at the time was CNN and they were the Goliath to FOXNews' David. CNN is no longer the cable news leader, in fact some of FOX's one hour shows beat CNN's entire day for viewership. FOXNews is now rivaling the big three networks for news ratings. Something thought impossible not long ago. Ted Turner the former owner of CNN laughed when FOXNews was started and stated that CNN would crush them "like a bug". I guess he hasn't read the David and Goliath story. CNN is on it's death bed in the ratings and looking very much like the proverbial crushed bug. Rush Limbaugh is another shining, glorious example of how Conservatism sells.
Rush Limbaugh entered talk radio post-Fairness Doctrine and has singlehandedly resurrected what was, for many years, a dead band of radio frequency. Not only did he revive talk radio but he created an entire wildly profitable industry that is absolutely dominated by Conservatives. Leftists have tried talk radio but have failed miserably. No one wants to hear that America sucks and class warfare is stylish. Rush on the other hand has millions listening to his show every day. He has a massive following that call themselves "Dittoheads" (ditto meaning Rush says what they are thinking and saying in their own lives). Rush has to be given credit for the radio careers of Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, Glenn Beck, Roger Hedgecock, Rusty Humphries, Mike Gallagher and Laura Ingraham just to name a famous few, he created the genre. I personally listen to on average 5 to 7 hours of talk radio a day. My job allows for that of course. Talk radio and FOXNews have allowed for the Conservative point of view to be expressed in contrast to the leftist view and contrary to popular leftist belief and speak, Conservatives love to give leftists their say, so that you as the listener can compare the two. You'll never see that in a leftist controlled forum for obvious reasons. The media now has alternatives for Conservatives and of course they are under attack constantly but at least we have them. Thank God for Rush Limbaugh, Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes. Murdoch and Ailes are behind the creation of FOXNews.
School books are what really disturb me. Revisionist history should be as criminal as lying to a Grand Jury. On top of that we are being forced to fund the leftist indoctrination of children and that makes me angrier than any of it. The destruction of federal control of education needs to happen. Most of the knowledge I have accumulated aside from advanced mathematics, has been self taught. Children would be better off being home schooled rather than be subjected to the public school bureaucracy and leftist indoctrination. Leftists cannot explain away the success of private and parochial schools in contrast to public schools in nearly every aspect. But then again they don't care about success they care about power. Education is the next mountain we must tackle. Vouchers and parental choice must be demanded. The Department of Education must be dissolved and the tax money we pay for that wasteful bureaucracy left in the states for local control. In spite of the government and the oppressive taxation we the people have created free market alternatives that destroy the public option in performance. Here in Nevada parochial and private schools are leaps and bounds above the performance of the public school system. If you pay for it for your family you are going to demand the best and expect the best. The government in Washington is the third party unaccounted for lead weight we have to drag around. They take our money before we see it then use it against us. We will win this battle too and not do it in secret but out in the open. It is the American way of freedom of choice and the triumph of our people over those that seek to rule us when they are supposed to represent us and look after our public assets.
I am not Mormon but I love their commercials on television about family and the importance of being a good parent etc. Everytime I see one of them I think about an alternative to the entertainment industry that is full of sex, drugs and criminal violence and the glorification of them. I know something alternative and truly Conservative would be a hit. Look at the audience that FOXNews, Rush and Mel Gibson have tapped into. We are the majority in this country. It is incredible to me that a loud and aggressive few, the hard core leftists, have been able to hijack our country in nearly every aspect. Someone is going to tap into this market with an idea like this and become a billionaire. Think about Mel Gibson's "Passion Of The Christ". That movie was shunned by every major studio in California. Gibson then used his own money to finance the entire thing and a small distributor to distribute it. The movie ended up grossing more than 600 million worldwide when it was all said and done. Leftists hated it and did what they could to diminish it, but it's impact was huge. It was the 900 lb Gorilla in the room for them in 2004. We need more of that kind of movie, religious as well as true, non revisionist history movies. People would buy it just on the premise that it was certifiably clean family entertainment. Parents have too much to worry about in this world without having to screen entertainment or any other product for their family before consuming it.
I try not to buy from companies that are aligned with the left. But it would be nice to have a conservative seal of approval from a reliable source so as to not have to do research everytime you purchase something or see a movie etc. That is going to happen someday soon because there is a market for it in our free market. Conservatism sells and sells big. Think about it.
2010 Patriots Defeat Marxist Democrats
Well here we are, it's 2010. "Judgment Day" for Congress is only 10 months away and the rats are already scurrying for cover ie; Byron Dorgan and Chris Dodd. They know that the exterminators are coming. Last year was an awful year and I'm not counting on this year being much better until November. The next 10 months are going to be alot of work. For me, it will be writing articles and continuing to involve myself with my own state Republican Party and the local Tea Party movement. This is on top of regular life duties, but I love every second of it, because I feel I am part of a movement that is going to save America from it's internal enemies. Everything we are doing is nothing compared to what the brave men and women of our military services are doing in Afghanistan. It is our duty to do the work here so they, the "Brave", have a "Home" to come back to. We will not let them down, because God and everyone else knows they have never let us down.
This next election is one of the most important elections in our history and I know it goes without saying of course, but I am going to say it over and over again this year. We cannot forget, in the next ten months, that the Democrats want us to be a Marxist state controlled by them and that they have legislated to achieve that end. We cannot forget that government intervention into our lives on the scale that it even presently exists is intolerable and unconstitutional, and what the Democrats propose to do would send us on a path to complete destruction of everything that has been accomplished in the history of this country. I can't imagine what the Founding Fathers would think of the federal government as it operates now. I think Thomas Jefferson would be appalled by the encroachment of the federal government, on states and personal rights. James Madison the "Father of the Constitution" would be appalled at how phrases in the Constitution have been used seize the very power that the Constitution gives to We The People and the states. George Washington would be appalled by politicians pushing to be rulers rather than representatives. The Founders would not recognize this federal government. They went to war with England over less oppression than we are experiencing.
We will not forget what happened in 2009 because it has frightened us to the core. I have never felt like this about our government in my life. I remember the feeling I got when I realized that despite a nearly 2 to 1 opposition to government health care that Congress was going to shove it down our throats and tell us we were going to get it anyway and that we should praise them for doing it. The Democrats attacked us and called us potential domestic terrorists. That frightens me to no end. That statement made by the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security coupled with the power that the Democrats are hurriedly attempting to seize is a huge red flag for me. That kind of power would give them ultimate control over every aspect of economy, society, and our people. Possessing that kind of power ultimately leads to the suppression of dissent and that my fellow Americans is a totalitarian existence. Immediately, Thomas Jefferson and his quote about fearing government and tyranny came to my mind.
"When the government fears the people there is liberty, When the people fear the government there is tyranny"
Let that fear sink in and turn it into action. I have been informing everyone within earshot. We all must be the Paul Revere of our own area of influence. Make this last year's experience become a history textbook moment. Explain it to the ignorant and kick the laziness from the apathetic in your life. Teach your children how close we came to losing everything to tyrants like Obama, Reid and Pelosi. We MUST stay engaged with the same fervor that led 80 year old seniors to protest at Tea Parties. We must be the anti-NEA teachers for our children. We must get people to think logically and see the fear that we see. We cannot rest for one minute until the leftists are driven from government and our liberties restored. We must demand that the bureaucratic quagmire in Washington is dismantled and that all three branches of government are returned to the enumerated, not assumed powers, stated in the Constitution.
We The People can turn this moment in history into a great moment in American history by turning a complete 180° direction course change from tyranny to liberty. The momentum and the overwhelming majority of Americans are on our side. The true Marxist/Alinsky leftists are a very small minority. "Well Michael if that is the truth then why are they in power?" They are in power because they lie very effectively and convincingly. They are masters of propaganda because they have to be to succeed. Conservatives do not need to use propaganda because we tell the truth and use logic not emotion to explain our points. We have the example of America to use as proof of the success of Conservative philosophy. They pretend to be like us but do not act like us when in power. Ben Nelson from Nebraska and Blanche Lincoln from Arkansas are two prime examples.
"Democrat" is now a dirty word to me. It symbolizes anti-American thought and activities at this point in history. There is nothing "Patriotic" about the Democrat party whatsoever. In fact since the days of Woodrow Wilson the self proclaimed "progressive" Democrats have been nibbling away our freedoms and working toward complete control. Entitlement programs are the prime example. The Democrats emotionally pitch them and then enslave you to the government with the implementation of them and the mandatory taxation of everyone to support them. "How does that work?" Look at how many people depend on Social Security to sustain them in their retirement years. They have the seniors right where they want them. Let them have that control and they will have you where they want you too. "Well I don't count on Social Security anyway" Great, but you still had to pay into it. Wait until they mandate that you use the government services. Mandated health care is what they are forcing on us right now. You will go to jail if you don't buy their health care. So much for Obama's promise of you'll be able to keep what you have.
If leftists honestly believe that Marxism is the best way to govern, then why not say that? Why not articulate your position and let the people decide? The reason they don't articulate their positions truthfully is because Marxism is not better for the people, it is better for them. The Soviet Union was a Marxist state. What happened to them you say? They ended up collapsing when the people finally had enough of the shortages in food and medicine and toilet paper and every other necessity that the government is charged with supplying in a Marxist system. The leftists hate our society and believe the only way to change it is to subjugate the population through government and change society by law and force. The example of this is the 4 or 5 states that allow gay marriage. All of these states have gay marriage because of politicians not the people of the state voted for it. Every time gay marriage is left to a vote it fails by a landslide. The leftists have been incrementally working on this takeover for decades and must be stopped. We are not going to allow that to happen and if it does there will be a civil war. However, that said, I know that Americans that elected Obama for the most part had no clue how radical he really was. This will teach them to not get caught in the hype and to do the necessary research before they pull the lever. I believe it was Plato that long ago, paraphrased by me, said "People that refuse to engage in politics are bound to be ruled by the inferior".
Keep a sharp eye for leftist tricks. They will do anything to minimize the damage. Including changing laws then changing them back to help them politically. Chris Dodd a leftist crook Senator from Delaware is not going to run in November so that another Democrat that has a better reputation and a lead over Republican challengers can keep the seat for Democrats. Don't fall for this or let your family and peers fall for that. Democrats are all the same now, no matter what they tell you to their face. There is no "better" Democrat they are all liars. "How can you paint with such a broad brush?" Answer this question for yourself. Why would anyone that cares for the Constitution run for office representing a party that has pushed for Marxism? They have all been shown to follow the party line even after campaigning and promising to be Conservative on this issue or that issue. I do not and you should not trust them ever. They will lie to you every single time. Do not trust everyone just because they have an "R" after their name either. Arlen Specter, Colin Powell and Tom Ridge are examples of people with and "R" that lie and do the work of the devil with a "D" in their hearts. Make sure you do your research and make sure that your candidates are Conservatives and have always been Conservatives. Conservatism is the founding ideology. Conservatism is America.
We have them on the run. Lets make sure the door hits them on the way out. Let's do this for our children and our grandchildren. Let's do this for the memory of the Founders and for all of the men and women that gave their lives to preserve our freedoms. Let's do this for America.
Infiltration And Indoctrination
The leftists, have infiltrated nearly every nook and cranny in America. Even the Republican party, the political party that is supposed to be Conservative must be purged of RINO's from time to time. It is a constant war that must be fought in order to preserve our rights guaranteed by God and the Constitution. Hollywood and the arts are always going to be flush with Che Guevara loving leftists, but my problem is that there is no other option than them. Public schools are populated with Marxist teachers trying to turn our children into the same America-hating heathens that they are. Granted there are exceptions as there are exceptions in Hollywood and the arts but the overwhelming majority of teachers and artists are leftists to some degree and control of the message is in their hands. We can always choose not to see a Hollywood movie that is overtly leftist, but anything to do with the government is forced upon us. Even if you send your children to a private school, you are bound by law to pay taxes to financially support the public school system that is indoctrinating every other child. Is that freedom to you? It isn't freedom to me!
This has been happening for years in this country. The leftists feed on the ignorant and the apathetic like locusts. Misery loves company and they are recruiting people as fast as they can. Leftists like to think of themselves as intellectually superior and try to fool everyone with the act that politics and government are too complicated for the average American to understand. A complete lie that is perpetuated to make you think that they will do right by you at the time enslaving you to them. Think about how many people believe that the world is coming to an end if we keep driving SUV's. Al Gore said it himself that the polar ice caps would be completely melted in 5 years. So according to Al Gore in 2014 you will be able to sail to the North Pole. We all know that is also a lie, but leftists have no shame and a number of people believe this garbage. It's sad that I cannot go to a movie and not pick up some underlying message that America or the Military or the CIA is somehow responsible for every ill the planet has ever suffered. I want an alternative to that. I want the good versus evil movies but not where Americans are the villains, because we are not evil. Far from it. Where have all the cowboys gone? Where are the leaders and the men that stood up for what was right and demanded it? It has to be us or we will become the next footnote in history.
The leftists, very quietly and very slowly over the last 100 years have gained control of and created bureaucracy that is very difficult to abolish. Take Social Security for example. Social Security was and still is a tax, plain and simple. More control over your money. I have no choice but to pay into Social Security and I probably will not see a dime of that money. Don't get me wrong, the people that receive Social Security for the most part paid into it their entire lives and deserve to get it back. The problem with a government entitlement like this is that the government did not save your money for you. They spent it, years ago. We, the workers and producers now are paying for it with funds that are supposed to be saved for us. The solution is for government to end mandatory enrollment into government entitlement programs and to stop spending the money. It's amazing to me the reactions I get when I tell my leftist friends this. They are so brainwashed into thinking that someone else is going to take care of you if you don't. That is a hard lesson to learn when you are retired past working age and broke.
Everything the government provides for you must be taken with a hefty dose of skepticism and alternative preparedness. The fact that we are being stolen from on a bi-weekly basis by the IRS is criminal in the first place, let alone having money stolen in the guise that it is going to be given back in the future and squandered. Again I believe in paying my taxes and proudly do so when they are used for the duties of the government as declared in the Constitution, but I am more and more bitter about my taxes being stolen for bureaucracy and policy that I do not agree with and is used to strip us of our freedoms. Government has also been set up with a system of unions and civil service that virtually guarantees employment regardless of what you do. It takes an act of Congress to get fired from a government job. The heads of these departments are appointed and leave at the end of the presidential term so they really have no impact on the average worker there. Leftist workers and managers are entrenched in these places so even when a Conservative is elected President there is nothing they can do to purge them. Of course these workers and managers do their best to hamstring a Conservative President by leaking information for example and by being absolutely lazy and non-productive. Go to a federal government office with a problem you need to have resolved and 9 times out of 10 you are going to be angry when you leave. The system has to be brought back to the Constitution, because as it stands now the leftists and the bureaucrats have all of us by the throat.
Obama and the Communist Congress are not being smart leftists. They are openly taking us to socialism with an eye on totalitarianism, providing us with evidence to show the doubters the contrast to the Constitution. In the past leftists were very sneaky, but not anymore. Obama came into office with some political capital but has overspent that by not fulfilling campaign promises to be different than what he was accusing Bush of being. Rather he is doing exactly what he accused Bush of doing. He has the full support of every bureaucrat and 90% of the media. That is another blessing in my opinion, because the media has always tried act like they were objective but are now showing their true leftist colors. The facade is finally being exposed for what it is and the ratings prove it. We know what the problem is and most of us always knew that there would be a tipping point where the lies and the truth would hit head on. This is it. We will also be provided with enormous political capital in the next two elections. What we demand be done with it will determine whether or not our children will continue to be indoctrinated by leftist teachers or whether illegal bureaucracies continue to exist.
The American people also need to be slowly weaned from the many federal entitlement programs that now exist as well. I don't mean throwing grandmother in the street. I mean picking a year and children born that year will not have to be enrolled automatically in any federal entitlement. They will be free to choose where there money goes for their retirement. The states and the local governments will have control over social issues. This can happen. We can take the country back to where it was prosperous and free, but we have to demand it! We cannot allow leftists to control of government ever again. Politicians are like children, if you do not keep a close eye they are bound to get into trouble. When Conservatives regain power we must keep up the grassroots campaign to force them to live up to "OUR" expectations. We want government in Washington out of our lives. We demand that the government follow the Constitution and retract to that point. We are not going to put up with an institutional tyranny any longer, Infiltration and Indoctrination are going to end come Hell or high water.
The Dignity Is Lost On Obama
I don't know if any of you caught the Obama speech at the Brookings Institute, (a leftist think tank) it was a doozy. He was speaking to a very friendly crowd and the lies were flowing out of his mouth like Bill Clinton during Grand Jury testimony. The one thing that really annoys me about him beyond his radical Marxist agenda, is his lack of respect for the office of President. Over the previous 43 different administrations traditional protocol has been established and there are certain things you do not do. One of them is to bad mouth the previous administration in public. It is a political position but only 43 people have ever been President. (Yes it is 43, Grover Cleveland had two terms that were not consecutive and he is considered the 22nd and 24th President, Obama is the 44th). It is a very exclusive club and policy aside you do not want to be considered to have been a stain on that club, at least I wouldn't want to be. There are always surrogates that can surreptitiously voice your opinions without you having to.
Most Presidents care about their legacy but Obama has broken that mold. Now that Obama is going to be considered a bane to the office, the other two living democrat former Presidents are following suit. Clinton's legacy was shot before he left office, but Carter despite having one of the most inept administrations ever was still considered a class act. Recently however he can no longer hold back and is showing his true unrefined far left colors and lack of respect for the office he once held. It is undignified to bad mouth your predecessor, but democrats have become emboldened and more and more radical as they can smell the health care bill passing. They hate being held back from being as crazy as they are by something as petty as protocol and etiquette. Forget about legacy, they could care less about legacy if they can get the leftist agenda advanced. The whole thing kind of saddens me because as a child I always looked up to the President. I remember thinking that the office of President was the zenith of accomplishments and only the most intelligent, capable and morally solid men would ever be able to get to that level. So much for childhood innocence and idealism.
Another aspect of this is the stark contrast between President Bush and President Obama. President Bush never talked bad about Bill Clinton or his administration while in office. I don't think he did when he was campaigning in 2000 or 2004. It wasn't because he didn't want to point out that Clinton was an embarrassment to the office. He simply had the class to focus on what he would bring to the Presidency and not how much he could trash his predecessor. During his years in office he never lashed out at his vocal critics. He was quiet to the point that I think it hurt his presidency when lies were allowed to hang in the air with no response. President Bush was dignified in office and remains so to this day. It is also sad that society in general is not more appalled at the lack of dignity of our current President.
To sit there and lie about something that everyone who pays attention for more than a fleeting second knows is a bald face lie, says alot about the man. He has been in office for almost a year and he still is blaming the Bush administration. The one thing Obama is going to learn is failure, because blaming Bush is only going to be able to be used for so long before there is a backlash. It is becoming very obvious that Conservatives were right about him and his radical ties, and what he had planned for us. I have no respect for Obama because to him the Presidency is a vehicle to become a ruler. I am different than a democrat though. If someone from another country trashes my President I would defend them and not let a foreigner talk bad about them. Even if they were trashing Obama. Americans can call them names but for a foreigner to do that is not appropriate to me as I would never trash their leaders.
Obama himself is the exact opposite in that his job is to promote and stand up for America. He does neither rather goes overseas and trashes America and apologizes for us. It's embarrassing to me. At a time when we need a strong leader, we get an amateur community organizer. President Bush is a good man, a christian and a decent President and regardless of whether you agreed with his administration or not, he doesn't deserve to be trashed by a President. I didn't agree with a number of his policies but he never let me down by not being a dignified President. Obama is letting us all down in nearly every aspect. For all of the hype he has turned out to be an incredible mistake that I hope is burned into the minds of his regretful voters for life.
Hold Your Breath Exhaling Is Pollution
The hits just keep on a comin'. The EPA announced today that it was declaring CO2 a hazard to human health and that it was going to be regulated as such. Every week there is a new, bizarre announcement from the Obama government. In the face of cliff diving poll numbers the Obama administration and the Marxist Congress chug along implementing as much of the leftist wish list from the past 100 years as they can get done before they are all thrown out. I am incredulous at their blatant disregard for the will of the people, and when the majority of the American people figure out what they did today they will be incredulous as well. If Conservatives cannot take control of Congress or at least one of the two bodies of Congress next year we are in for bad times soon.
"Global warming", "global cooling" and "man-made climate change" are all the same power grabbing lies that leftists have been spreading for years. No matter what man does we are still ants scurrying around on the jungle floor to the earth. We can affect local pollution levels but global climate change is way out of our realm. The sun is what controls our weather, not car or factory exhaust. The leftists are lying to all of us to steal our liberty and secure complete power. It all sounds like an Orwell novel but it's true, and you can prove it to yourself by reading their own words. Read Saul Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals" along with Karl Marx's "The Communist Manifesto" and you will see that Barack Obama and the Maxist Congress are following it step by Marxist step. The book explains propaganda techniques and what should be done in our system to seize control. Tyrants always publish their intentions then fulfill their prophecies in front of the noses of the people that should know better. We are in that place in our history right now.
CO2 is not a hazard to our health. In fact CO2 is what we exhale and what plants need to produce Oxygen for us to breathe. We are all part of a big earth bio system that corrects and changes as it goes despite us. Nothing we do can hurt this planet long term. Even when we exploded dozens of nuclear and hydrogen bombs on the Pacific island of Bikini, life returned and radiation in the ocean was washed away. Nothing can stop mother nature. The fact that the EPA would declare CO2 hazardous to humans is simply too obvious a farce to be taken lightly. CO2 is hazardous to humans if that is all you have to breathe but then again so is oxygen. Water can be toxic if you drink too much of it, are they going to regulate water emissions? Like I said before, it is all part of the bigger "climate change" scam along with "cap & trade".
This scam that will give them more power over private sector businesses. Factories will be restricted and taxed which will give them no choice but to charge more for services and products. The consumer is the one that is going to suffer and the government will blame it on business. See the pattern? It is happening as we speak. The leftists in government are blaming "BIG Insurance" and "BIG Oil" etc etc. They will villify them while stealing our freedoms. Before you know it we will have to ask the government permission to breathe and have to use one square of toilet paper per visit to the bathroom. This is no joke, and if we do not raise the alarm loud enough to overturn this government next year, America as we know it will quickly dissolve into something from a nightmare.
I am not going to compare Obama to everything Hitler represents, but Hitler came to power through elections the same as Obama, and slowly grabbed power like Obama is attempting to do now. By the time the German people came around from their ignorant funk it was too late. Hitler was very incremental and slowly built his power until he controlled all of Germany one way or another. After that, there was no opposition left for fear of reprisal. Hitler was intimately involved in all aspects of the German economy. Remember every crazy leftist utterance by heart, because if they are left in power it will become law sooner or later. CO2 regulation is only the beginning, trust me. Stay tuned.
Abortion Is Disgusting Murder
My disgust of abortion is another "social issue" that has leftists and left leaning drones hating me, but I don't care. God forbid the world from turning if they can't murder another innocent American that should have the same rights as it's parents, but doesn't because it was conceived after a drunken one-nighter at the club. A mother with an unborn baby in the womb has the option to murder her own child because her "choice" to do so is elevated above the child's right to live according to the left. The sad part is that they were able to get the Supreme Court to vote their way in "Roe vs Wade". If you have ever had an abortion or seen video or pictures of an abortion proceedure you will understand what I mean. How any woman could do that to their own flesh and blood is beyond me.
All of those people are going to have alot to answer to God for. It is the most disgusting, heart wrenching thing to know that a living baby was murdered and plopped out on a hospital pan like a tumor, then tossed in with the rest of the trash. Who has the right to do that? Who has the right to take a living human and end their life because they would have been inconvenient? Nobody does. Why don't the most innocent and vulnerable have an automatic right to a chance at life? It's a sick and twisted moral atmosphere we live in now, that's why. There are lots and lots of people who would love to have a baby but cannot conceive, yet they are denied the chance to raise that baby because a messed up girl or woman wants her baby dead rather than to have a chance at life with someone else to love them. What have we come to? Leftists think that criminal murderers, rapists and animals have more of a right to life than babies.
The most fervent supporters of abortion are women and girls that have never ever actually had or witnessed an abortion, and also of course the leftist hardcore that want to destroy all that we hold dear, including life. Women and girls are fed lies about how the evil "right wing" want to take their rights away and make them die getting abortions in a back alley with a coat hanger. I have a better option. Don't become a slut and you won't have to worry about taking care of, or murdering a baby. In the days before the 60's moral disaster, having to get an abortion was attached with an enormous stigma. The shame that a family felt because their daughter had sex before marriage was enough to make anyone think twice. Shame is a good thing, the thought of shaming your family is even better, it keeps you balanced and moving forward not falling for the quick thrill but rather contemplating the future consequences of stupid actions. Leftists despise feeling ashamed about anything. They reject it, and their lives are chaotic and unhappy as a result. Leftists also reject God or the existence of God so they never have him to rely on when things are not going well for them or when they go home to suffer after having just murdered their own baby. God would give them a foundation for life. That would make them see that appreciating another human life allows you to truly appreciate your own.
Science is the leftist God, unless of course the science doesn't go their way, then they make it up like "global warming". The problem with leftist scientists is that they think they are alot smarter than what they really are and it destroys their ability to be objective. Instead of trying to find out how things work, in their minds they already know, and work to convince people that theories that advance their leftist cause are "settled science". Well guess what, nothing is settled science, nothing. When they can definatively prove where life came from scientifically, and recreate it from scratch at will, only then will have they legitimacy. That will happen as fast as they can stop hurricanes and find bigfoot. Evolution is settled science to them and that cannot be proven no matter how many headlines that they have finally found the "missing link". They lie and don't have a problem with it. It all leads back to their theory that lightning struck a pond with chemicals in the right area and created life. Amazing isn't it. None of them were there to witness this or have ever been able to recreate it, but it's settled science to them nonetheless. Therefore, a baby is just a chemical reaction not a living breathing human with a soul.
God creates life and only God can call life back to Heaven. Murderers are going to pay for doing what is God's right in the afterlife. I cannot condone in my mind the abortion of any life. However, I know there are situations that some deem necessary to abort a pregnancy in order to save the mother's life or the mental health of the mother as in the case of rape and incest. I cannot have children and cannot speculate as to what I would do or feel if I were a woman or girl in a rape or incest situation. The only advice I would give is to tell the victim to pray to God and he will let you know what to do. It should not be an automatic decision to end a life no matter how it was conceived. You never know what God has planned for that life, and if you truly have faith in God you know that he will not give you more than you can handle and he will decide. I know these are the sticking points in this whole argument even with God fearing Conservatives, but I can't imagine God condoning ending a life he created without his blessing and it would be wise to let him decide. If you are sincere in your faith, he will let you know what to do and take the burden from your shoulders.
Politically, I have repeated over and over again that leftists want to destroy everything we would deem worthy to fight for. Their twisted minds believe that utopia would exist in a world where no one cares if the 50 year old neighbor impregnates your 12 year old daughter. They are sick people and they have chosen to pick this path for our entire country, whether you like it or not. The health care bill in whatever form it comes in is going to include government funded abortion. You can count on that. Who are they to use my money for something that I find morally reprehensible? They have no right to do that. Anyone that does not know or care to be involved, and does not see what the leftists have in mind for all of us, need to wake up and realize that sooner rather than later one of their boundaries will be crossed. I keep track of what is going on and anyone that reads this article keeps track of what is going on, and we are raising the alarm to as noisy a decibel as possible to wake up the ignorant and apathetic. If let go to their wishes, the left will have abortion as natural and accepted as drinking coffee in the morning, with all of us funding it. God is going to deal with evil in heaven and we have to stop the evil of abortion here on earth.
Sacrificing For America Has Been Hijacked
There used to be a time when sacrificing for the greater good was considered an honorable thing. There also used to be a time when you could walk down the street and every house had an American flag displayed. What happened to those times? Sacrificing for America was what you did naturally, just like sticking up for your siblings against neighborhood bullies. Sacrificing for America was never a question, now it is. Why? It's in question now because you don't know if you want to defend, the direction America is heading. No one thought things would get as skewed as they are. Society is now full of spoiled brats young and old that wouldn't know sacrifice if it slapped them in the face. Sacrificing for America now is pledging allegiance to Barack Obama and furthering the Marxist cause he has planned for this country. It's not mom and apple pie anymore. It's hookers and blow. It's not Norman Rockwell and John Wayne anymore. It's Larry Flynt and Sean Penn. Our society the way it is headed is not worth sacrificing for. A whole lot more needs to be done to correct the path we are on or we will end up a footnote in history.
Please do not take this wrong. I am not saying America is not worth fighting for. I am bound by my own creed to defend America. I defend the America of George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and Ronald Reagan. I defend the America that is spelled out in the Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution. Millions of Americans sacrificed their time, money and sometimes alot more this past year protesting the evil that grips our country right now. If you are reading this you are sacrificing your time trying to educate yourself or to get a new or different perspective to combat the leftists you encounter. The people that put their hand over their heart when they hear the Star Spangled Banner, are the ones that understand what is going to happpen to America if we let it go down without a fight. Those people are sacrificing for all of us. It's not going to come to violence I hope, and we can assure that it doesn't by fighting back now and stopping the leftist democrats.
The key is to educate people and point out that the democrat party of 2009 is not the democrat party of 1960. The democrat leadership now wants to rule, not serve the country, and take us to a place devoid of the freedoms we have enjoyed for 233 years. These are the facts that must be taught to those that do not already know. Our time and money is what we will have to sacrifice which is alot better than sacrificing blood. The sacrifices that President Obama and Vice President Biden have in mind are paying more taxes so they can seize more of your liberties. They would love it also if you perpetuated the removal of your freedoms by working for criminal fronts like ACORN and the SEIU to commit voter fraud to try and rig elections and also to get more people dependent on government entitlements. The slavery of the 21st century.
When the leftists talk about sacrificing for America, they mean help to destroy what we have built over the past 233 years and transform it into a depreciated quagmire run by guess who? That's right, leftist democrats. To the rank and file leftist its the idea of leftist utopia and the dream of peace and harmony, but to the leadership it is the dream of unmitigated rule. We all know the leftist utopia is not possible and leftist rule is not tolerable. Not on my watch is that going to happen. Not without a fight from me. America is the best country in the world because of the sacrifices of our ancestors, of blood, sweat and tears. To let it crumble is a slap in the face to anyone that died or lost the quality of their lives because they gave for America. Everyone in this country should go to Washington D.C. at least once in their lives. Not because of the White House or the Capitol Building or the Smithsonian etc, you should go to see the founding documents in the National Archives and then take a trip across the Potomac River to Arlington, Virginia and see the thousands that died keeping those documents salient. The people at Arlingtom sacrificed for America. They sacrificed everything they had or would ever have for America. Our honor would be gone if we allowed their efforts to be in vain.
When I talk to people about this subject I usually get a strange look. Most people are not going to willingly sacrifice their lives for a concept or a flag, but Americans sacrifice for America not because of a flag but because of what America stands for. America stands for your family and God and the wonderful freedoms we have. America stands for victory in everything we put our minds to, and the best that the world has to offer. America stands for the opportunities that this country provides because we are a free people with a free market economy. You sacrifice and fight to preserve the right to drive your car when you want, or eat what you want and all the little things that we all have taken for granted for years. I am willing to sacrifice for America, but not for Obama's vision. Fighting Obama's vision, is sacrificing for America for me. He cannot fool all of us and we are the majority and we will be in the "super" majority when we complete the momumental task of educating everyone in America to what is going on. I will cherish that day in November of 2010 and again in 2012 when we will all be able to see the fruits of our labor and sacrifice. It is the least we could do for the ones that have sacrificed before us and the ones that are going to sacrifice after us.
Why Gay Marriage Isn't An Option
I abhor having to debate social issues like gay marriage. The reason why is that I see the bigger picture. I know that just like abortion, and pot smoking and a host of other issues, gay marriage is just another club leftists use to beat down and diminish what Americans consider dear to their hearts, and what has held our country together at the societal seams since the founding. The reason I hate to debate social issues is because the left has people so brainwashed into thinking that they are doing the good and decent thing, that the person you are trying to convince thinks you are way out of line at the very least or outright evil or racist, for having the opposite view in the first place. You end up having to first convince them you are not the devil, then you have to get them to think logically, and finally you can explain to them why you think the way you do. The process is long and very annoying depending on the combativeness of the brainwashed drone. Once you are able to explain why you feel the way you do and the logical reasoning behind how you feel, you can usually at the very least plant a seed in their thought process. It is the journey that is long, arduous, and most of the time futile.
I first want to make it absolutely clear that I do not hate anyone, let alone gays. I do not wish them ill health or hell or any of a number of vile thoughts that leftists have created and attributed to Conservatives. I feel sorry for gays. I do not believe that there is a "gay gene" and that they are born gay. I believe that the state of being gay was caused by trauma suffered at an early age, particularly in the early developmental years between 2 and 5 yrs of age. This trauma could have been major trauma such as child abuse or sexual abuse or something as common as being yelled at by a parent or beat up by a sibling. Being gay is an acceptance of the feelings the person felt at the time of trauma. What I mean by this is that some people take a smack in the mouth by smacking the other person back or learning how and doing it later. Other people take a smack in the mouth and accept that they will always be smacked in the mouth, therefore they learn to exist and accept being in the bottom castes in their minds.
The gay marriage movement has been propagated by gays that have yearned for the feeling of being accepted by everyone. It has to be "marriage" for them because it is not about attaining the same rights, but rather forcing everyone to accept their behavior as normal by law. I have no problem with two people doing what they want as consenting adults and being able to have the same rights legally for insurance, medical, death decisions and property dispersal etc. Two people can do that now legally without being a couple. It cannot be called "marriage" however, and you cannot force people to accept a behavior as normal by getting a law passed. Marriage was first established by God and recognized and sanctioned by the church. It is one of the holy sacraments. Governments later had to recognize marriage, and soon after found a way to tax it, ie; Marriage licenses. Marriage licenses are the sole reason government has a say in marriage at all. Some gays do not want gay marriage because they are happy with the niche they have created and do not want the spotlight on them. Gays for the most part are not happy people because of the baggage they carry from childhood, and the deep seeded insecurities they have. They also suffer for the fact that gay relationships never last because two insecure people can never form a solid foundation. Of course there are exceptions and yes lots of straight relationships do not last, but for the most part a gay relationship is fleeting. Individuals that are gay and want this are trying to create a positive in a completely negative atmosphere.
Gay marriage by law for me would diminish what true marriage is. Marriage is the sacred loving bond between a man and a woman. A gift given to us by God so that we populate the earth and never be lonely without companionship. Gay marriage is not what God and nature intended, otherwise no one would ever be born. I cannot accept gay marriage according to my faith and I resent the fact that government could force me to accept it by law. Also no one ever thinks about the next assault on marriage, which would be polygamy and it is anyone's guess what else could be argued with the same arguments being used to propagate gay marriage. Gay marriage exists in 4 states as I write this article. Those states are New Hampshire, Iowa, Vermont and Massachusetts. All of those states were forced to accept gay marriage by law, not by vote but by extreme left politicians and judges. Everytime gay marriage has been put on a ballot in any state by referendum, it has been voted down, every single time. In California, home of the most extreme leftists in our country, the courts ruled in favor of gay marriage. In the next election voters were able to put the question on the ballot to change the Constitution of the State of California in order to stop judges from being able to make it legal again.
"How does this have anything to do with politics?" Let me explain. Leftists love gay marriage because it is another way of destroying the foundations of society. If you read one of my first articles here "The Hardened Leftist" I explain that for the leftists in charge of the movement, destroying anything that we would be willing to fight for, will create an equal plane for everyone creating utopia on earth. I do mean everything you would fight for. Leftists want us to get to the point that we care about nothing including religion, family, private property etc. I know it sounds crazy but I am telling you the truth and if you read their own words eg; Saul Alinsky's "Rules For Radicals" and Karl Marx's "The Communist Manifesto" among the many, you see that they are deadly serious and that we must fight them to the end. They are also people that were traumatized somehow, but went headfirst into destroying what they deep down want to be accepted by. Actors and singers are the same type of people but they show it in art. All of them have troubled lives. If you look at the history of all of them, leftists, artists and gays, you see troubled lives. Some of them accumulate wealth beyond their wildest dreams and are still miserable and self destructive. Very few of these people could tell you the honest truth and say they were happy.
Gay marriage and the reasons it has to be stopped can be explained to the girl in the office that believes that "gays have a right to be happy too". You just have to do it gently and let them know that you want the best for all people including gays, but not to the detriment of what makes the good of society, good.
Rush Limbaugh Is Not A Racist
I have grown tired of defending myself and other Conservatives from leftist attacks. Being called a racist is the most common and disgusting attack. Conservatism is rooted in basic "self-evident truths" eloquently displayed in our founding documents that unequivocally state all men are created equal. Equal opportunity must exist but not the guarantee of equal results. Not everyone is going to give 100% all of the time and reach their full potential. America is supposed to be the place where no matter what ethnic background you are from, you have an equal opportunity to be your best. The redistribution of wealth only angers the one that created it and enslaves the one who receives it. Conservatives live by a code of conduct and honor and it is an insult to me to be called a racist. To be a true Patriotic Conservative, there is no way that you could be a racist. I am sure that there are people that are racists that "claim" to be Conservatives, but we would never accept them as one of us. I have written extensively on this, and frankly I am sick of the subject. "So why are you writing about it again?" Good question.
I still hear all kinds of people that never listen to Rush call him a racist. Of course there are the extreme leftist blogs that write vile things about him. The haters listen just to edit out a phrase to attack him with, then take what he said out of context or completely make a quote up. All of his loyal listeners have had to take flak from leftist people in their lives for listening to him. If those people would only listen themselves they would realize that he is the polar opposite of racist. Calling Rush racist is an emotional reaction to being charged up from propaganda that is false. Most Leftists come to their conclusions not from the security of knowledge that they have researched all sides of an issue and the history but from emotional insecurity of one form or another. Snap judgments are usually emotional reactions and usually wrong. The helplessness spawned by the insecurity in ones own abilities leads people to the leftist populism that promises revenge and retribution but never does deliver on the promised self esteem and security. I do feel sorry for leftists though because even if they had everything they think they wanted they would still be unhappy. Most supporters of the left do not realize that they support people that are going to drastically alter our way of life and make all of us, including them, subservient to the government. Everyone needs to rethink what they want and what implementation of all of their pet issues will mean to the existence and condition of our society.
I feel sorry for Rush but I know what he would say, "You don't have to feel sorry for me, I let it roll off my back and continue on educating the masses at the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies using skills on loan from God." Yes Rush is a big boy now and he has learned to deal with the constant barrage but it has to get annoying once in a while. I get annoyed alot, and I am no-where near as exposed as he is. The sad part is that Rush is not a racist but rather the exact opposite. He would say what I do, that as Conservatives we want everyone to reach their full potential with same opportunities using their own labor and brains. Everyone that has accomplished something wants to be able to say they did it on their own without a handout. It feels so much better that way than to receive a government check in the mail. Even toddlers want to do things on their own. It's human nature.
The left wants to keep blacks, and every other group marginalized and locked into a victim mentality, then claim to be the saviors which in turn will keep them in power. If you believe that nothing you do will amount to anything because there is a secret racism lurking in every corner you are going to follow the people that play to your emotions. These are the people that hate Rush and hate that Rush points out the irony in every leftist argument including using the racism slur as a weapon. His call screener is Bo Snerdley a black man. Do you think an ignorant racist white man would hire a black man? It is slanderous to say he is racist and I felt the need to stick up for Rush Limbaugh. I cannot stand idle while the Left tries to make Conservatism and Rush Limbaugh synonymous with racism. It's the right thing to do. It's the Conservative way.
Obama And Holder Hate America
What else could it be? I find it very hard to believe that the two are stupid. Holder is not someone Obama picked up on the side of the road and offered the Office of Attorney General. He's a seasoned lawyer, in fact he has a conflict of interest when it comes to putting terrorists on trial, his law firm defended some of them. He knows better than to try the mastermind of 9/11 in a civilian court. So then why is he going to do it? Why did he go to Capitol Hill to defend this? I heard the audio of him stumbling over himself with no answers to very basic questions concerning this issue at the Senate. He didn't have an answer other than "to show the world that our system of law works" What the hell does that mean? Someone please write me and let me know because I can't figure that one out. As a matter of fact the number of enemy combatants captured in the field for "war crimes" and tried in civilian court in our history is zero. We have had 233 years of the most carefully fair jurisprudence the world has ever seen and he is going to be the first to try enemy war criminals in courts reserved for Americans. That is what he thinks of your rights as an American. Don't think for a second it is all Eric Holder either. Nothing happens this controversial in any executive cabinet that the President hasn't already approved. This is Obama's show and Eric Holder is a willing active participant. They both hate America and hate that you have the rights that you have. If it were up to them you would have no rights. Trust me on this.
This entire fiasco is an incredible learning moment for anyone that doesn't have a clue but would like to understand. The majority of people I talk to seem to have no problem with this and that is sad. First and foremost these people are foreigners and do not deserve our rights given to us under the Constitution. If an American had been the mastermind of 9/11 they would get a trial in our courts with all of the rights guaranteed in the Constitution because they were American. A foreign enemy murderer of American civilians by all precedents is always tried by a military tribunal. Killing innocent civilians for the sake of terror is a war crime and not a civil crime. The Geneva convention, which the U.S. is a signatory, guarantees the terrorists are being treated properly with a fair military trial. They do not get American rights because they are not American. I keep hearing from leftists and liberals that this is ok because it will show the world that we have a fair and just system of justice. We do have a fair and just system of justice. The problem with putting terrorists on trial in civilian court is that the Marines and soldiers that captured them never ever have had to follow police rules. The military never gave the terrorists Miranda warnings because the terrorists were not American and the military has never ever had to do that. The chief terrorist of the group among others was water-boarded to get information from. Those techniques used to get information from them along with the lack of Miranda warnings are grounds for dismissal of the case in civilian court.
If you don't think there are judges in the federal system that would throw the case out on a technicality you are mistaken. If that happens, then what? You can't retry them or you have double jeopardy issues. So then they have to be released according to U.S. law. Released where? Obama and Holder say not here, then where? The fact that there is a chance that these people could escape justice because Eric Holder wants to try them in civilian court is an outrage. Leftists and liberals who think that this is going to reflect good on us are stupid at best. In fact it is going to make us look like a banana republic, because by our civilian court laws the case should have been thrown out due to the lack of Miranda warnings and the water-boarding to extract information. Then if the case is thrown out or they are acquitted we have to let them go. If we don't we will look like hypocrites in the eyes of the world. Plus how fair is a civilian court trial with a predetermined outcome? What if the jury is full of sympathizers or leftists nuts that acquit them. It's not fair to the families of the 9/11 victims for terrorists to have a civilian court trial with the same Constitutional rights as their fallen family members.
I cannot believe that there is not more of an outcry against this. Khalid Sheik Muhammad has already confessed and is proud of what he did. He wants to die and be martyred. A military trial would have granted him that immediately and without the lengthy appeals process in civilian court. Not to mention the enormous costs involved with trying them in New York and the incarceration and the appeals etc. Obama and Holder are not fit for the offices they currently hold. Neither of them seems to have a clue what they are doing other than following their leftist plan to the letter. Another tidbit in all of this is the right to discovery. Discovery is the right of the defense to view and investigate all of the evidence against them. This opens up top secret and classified material to the entire world. This will destroy our intelligence gathering capabilities because the defense will use anything to get their client acquitted. Including exposing methods of capturing them etc.
No President in history would have done this. Obama and Holder are doing it for a reason. They are quickly trying to dismantle this country at every level and in every corner. They want to make the Bush administration look bad, which is foolish because Bush followed all the laws to the letter. How do I know this? If Bush had not, the leftists would already would have had all of them in court. This is just another example of leftists in control without any checks or balances. For the leftists it is just one more step to totalitarian socialism. Who are they to break the law of the Constitution? I wonder if Obama's hero Franklin Roosevelt would have tried Adolf Hitler in civilian court if we had captured him? The answer is no he wouldn't have. Roosevelt would have never taken the chance of a dismissal. People that are ignorant in this country need to stop drinking the Kool-Aid and start educating themselves. 2010 and 2012 cannot get here fast enough!
