I want to vote for you.  I really do.  I believe that your executive experience, both in the public and private sectors, makes you uniquely qualified to lead our nation out of this economic morass that we let ourselves be led into by progressives in both parties. 

 

But I'm afraid.  I'm afraid that you don't have the gravitas to jump into the ring and go toe-to-toe in a bloody slugfest with a dirty street fighter who will stop at nothing to get re-elected.

 

You see, you've said several times that President Obama is just "in over his head."  That implies that he's either stupid or incompetent.  Neither of which is true.  He knows exactly what he is doing.  He and his cabal are systematically going about the destruction of the United States of America with a distinct purpose.   He said he will "fundamentally transform The United States of America."  He is.

 

His plan is two-fold.  First, destroy our economy.  He is doing a masterful job of that, having incurred more than $5 trillion in debt in three years.  Unemployment has held steady at Depression-era numbers for more than two years and everything he does inhibits job creators from hiring.  With the help of the Federal Reserve, our money is fast becoming worthless.  In addition, he has done everything possible to deny the American people's access to domestic energy sources thereby insuring our dependence on our nation's enemies for our energy supplies and high prices for all goods and services.

 

Second, he wants a massive reduction in forces and to cut $1 trillion from our defense budget.  At a time of increasing hostility towards America, and enemies threatening us from all points on the globe, this is folly.  Unless, of course, you want America to become a third-rate military power and incapable of defending herself.

 

At best, Barack Obama is a socialist.  At worst, he is a communist.  But whatever he really is, he is out to take America down.  I believe that has always been his plan.  And he is succeeding.

 

Sun Tzu wrote in The Art of War:  "If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles."

 

Until you are ready to acknowledge who Barack Obama really is, you will never defeat him.

A GUIDE TO AMERICAN FEDERAL DEBT

The political economist Frederic Bastiat tried to warn us - over 160 years ago - in his work "The Law" that there would be those who would wish to plunder our persons, liberty and property AND limit our ability to protect & defend ourselves by supplanting  our natural rights with the laws of the their own aims. To affect this legal pillage, they would use (and change when necessary)the Laws of Government to allow the state to sanction common force against the individual . When the Government's common force is perverted, the individual's right to self-defense is set aside - set aside in favor of an another more preferred or favored group.

Now, it seems as if the radical Islamists and their willing dhimmis have taken a tactic from the plunderers playbook exposed in "The Law"-  to use Government force in favor of Islam at the expense of all other ideologies.  Yes, it is abundantly clear that according to the Koran, Islam is more than a theology it is a complex sociological and governmental life system whose ideology is incompatible with Western Civilization.

The startling thing about the article "Black Day for Austria"  (not Australia as I first read) http://www.stonegateinstitute.org/2702/sabaditsch-wolff-appeal  excerpted below ...

An Austrian appellate court has upheld the conviction of Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff, a Viennese housewife and anti-Jihad activist, for "denigrating religious beliefs" after giving a series of seminars about the dangers of radical Islam.

The December 20 ruling shows that while Judaism and Christianity can be disparaged with impunity in postmodern multicultural Austria, speaking the truth about Islam is subject to swift and hefty legal penalties.

Although the case has major implications for freedom of speech in Austria, as well as in Europe as a whole, it has received virtually no press coverage in the American mainstream media.

...is NOT the lack of press coverage; but, the complete lack of concern to where this long dark road really leads!

Lest there be any doubt, this road leads to a place where few in the western world could imagine today ... a hole of intellectual darkness so vast and deep: that not only can women not drive - they have nothing unless it is deemed so by their husband, father or brother; where most men not only do not read or think, they are know only the 6346 verses of Koran; a place where technology does not function, instead it is magic that must be exorcized ... a place so dark where what once was known slips back in to the unknowable, where enlightenment is obscure and heretics are beheaded.

Not long ago, GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain stirred up a hornet's nest when he observed that the reason many black Americans voted Democratic is because they have been brainwashed. Of course, the hyenas lined up to do what liberals do best: call people they disagree with names instead of arguing facts. Al Sharpton said Mr. Cain was not an authentic black man. I'm not being flip here, but Al, he's darker than you! Mr. Cain was called an Oreo and slave on the white man's plantation. But who are the real plantation owners? Fifty years ago, before Lyndon Johnson's Great Society, which overturned 80 years of Democratic opposition to ending racial discrimination, 80% of blacks lived in married, two-parent households. Today 60% of black children grow up in fatherless homes supported by a myriad of federal government programs. 70% of black babies (those that survive the 300,000 annual abortions in the black community) are born to unwed mothers who are supported by federal and state taxpayers. And that's just for starters.
 
So, who are the real slaveowners? Let's take a little exam. How much history do you know?

Part Une:

1. Which political party was established in 1854 to fight slavery in the US?
2. Which political party issued the Emancipation Proclamation, declaring all slaves in the rebellious Confederate States of America to be freemen?
3. Which party wrote and instituted the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, which permanently outlawed slavery, the Fourteenth Amendment, which prohibited racial discrimination in voting?
4. Which party wrote and enacted into law the Civil Rights Acts of 1866, 1875, 1957 and 1960?
5. Which party desegregated the Arizona Air National Guard two years before the U.S. Armed Forces were integrated?
6. Which party sent US military troops into Arkansas to desegregate Central High School in Little Rock in 1957?
7. Which party established the Revised Philadelphia Plan in 1969 and ushered in affirmative action as we understand it today?
8. Which party instituted busing to desegregate public schools, contributing to a decline in the percentage of segregated public schools in the South form 68 % to 9% in just five years (1969-1974?)

Okay, I'll make this easy for you; multiple choice:

a.) The Republican Party b.) The Democratic Party c.) The Bull Moose Party d.) The Birthday Party Now

Part Deux:

1. Which political party tolerated the practice of slavery in America and fought to allow its spread into new territories?
2. Which political party looked the other way while its southern wing sanctioned nearly one hundred years of terrorism against and disenfranchisement of black Americans, to include the establishment of the Ku Klux Klan terror group, the lynching of 3,447 blacks and 1,297 whites, and the enactment of Jim Crow laws to effectively deny blacks the right to vote or to be treated equally in public places?
3. Which party had a president who was a leader of the Progressive movement and promised to do more for black people, yet was responsible for essentially re-segregating the federal civil service, and became indignant when a black civil rights leader called him on his treachery?
4. Which political party gave birth to the Dixiecrats in 1948?
5. Which party had a nominee for president in 1960 who voted against the 1957 Civil Rights Act while a senator and, as president, condemned the Freedom Riders for distracting him and the nation from the international crises of the day?
6. Which political party filibustered the 1957, 1960 and 1964 Civil Rights Act, and the 1965 Voting Rights Act?
7. Which political party had a powerful US Senator from West Virginia who was an Exalted Cyclops in the local chapter of the KKK?
8. Which party cancelled a highly successful voucher program in Washington, D.C. that pulled black students from dismally failing public schools and gave them a path to success?

Guess again: a.) The Republicans b.) The Democrats c.) The Bull Moosers d.) The Birthers

If you tune into Chris Matthews or any of the alphabet networks you probably think the Dems would be the correct choice for Part Une and The GOP is probably the evil bunch you would allot to Part Deux. Well you would be so very wrong!

But the Democrats keep handing out freebies and taking away a little liberty with each food stamp and free cell phone. The slavemasters keep the plantation open and full of slaves. Herman Cain has escaped the plantation.

But what happened when a slave escaped his slavemaster? He was hunted down, captured and hung as a lesson to the other slaves. Mr. Cain is being hunted now. Hopefully he can escape the hanging.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac had more to do with the collapse of the economy in 2007-2008 than anyone else.  It was their granting of mortgages to those people who could not possibly pay back the loans and then securitizing those mortgages on the global financial markets that created this financial debacle that spread worldwide. 

 

Now these outstanding managers of money have decided to vote themselves $13,000,000 in bonuses for their executives and directors for a "job well-done."  The only thing well-done and getting skewered here is the American taxpayer!

 

Fannie and Freddie have gotten $141 billion is stimulus money, and along with AIG, are the only folks (out of all the financial institutions that received TARP funds) who have not paid it back.  Now these brilliant money managers are asking for another $6 billion, just for this coming quarter!

 

Bonuses have a sordid history at Fannie Mae.  Franklin Raines, Bill Clinton's budget director who became head of Fannie Mae awarded himself  $90,000,000 in bonuses over a six year period.  Let that sink in for a moment.  NINETY FREAKING MILLION DOLLARS in bonuses to one man for helping destroy the world's economies.  Why is he not in hell, or at least occupying a cell next to Bernie Madoff?

#ows - never before have so many felt entitled to so much for so little ...

Q. So, how much of your neighbors stuff do you fell entitled?
 A. if you say; "None" - then welcome to the Tea Party!
