The time has come for the vote, all cards are on the table, whatever it takes to ram this bill through. It has been a year of campaign speeches, tea party gatherings and Americans waking up for the first time. We have made it very clear that we oppose this bill, but have the elitists, spineless goons in congress listened? They don't care about what we want, they care that this is 'historic'. They will use all their power, all their mind games to get what they want-a Universal Health care plan that will ruin our country.
If we have paid attention at all to Barack Obama on the campaign trail, he said it all. Rather than listening, people were too mesmerized with his smooth talking, jive dancing, hope promising banter that they put him in office. Now look where we are.
The left will tell you that those on the right are playing fear tactics and spreading lies, but just the opposite is happening. The facts and truth are being laid out before us, we can either run from it, shut our eyes or we can listen and open our eyes. The only choice we have is to educate ourselves. We need to understand our rights, our Constitution and what our Founders wanted for our country.
Americas fate will be decided tomorrow on Capital Hill. Whatever the outcome, we must not feel defeated. We must not stand down. The American bond needs to grow stronger that it has ever been.

Get the Memo on Healthcare
When will the Obama Administration get off their Health Care trip? Maybe they didn't get the memo but, the Americans aren't buying it. Their excuse is that they haven't explained it well enough for us to understand. On the contrary my friends, they have been on a campaign trail with this thing for a year. We've seen it, we've read it, we don't agree with the proposals. How many of the delegates can truly say they've read this bill?
Did you tune into the live feed on the 7 hour debate? Mr. Obama thought this would be a good way to resolve the issues and finally come to an agreement. That didn't work either. While I was skimming the feed, Barack came off as a father scolding a child. He is trying to command respect and he comes off as a pompous ass. Haven't you ever seen a public figure that naturally has that commanding presence? Here is a good comparison, Tony Snow vs. Robert Gibbs. When Tony Snow was addressing the press, they never got over on him. He was direct, assertive, had a sense of humor, and most of all had respect. The respect didn't have to be forced, he had a presence about him where people would show respect without having to think about it. Robert Gibbs on the other hand is bumbling fool that doesn't always seem to be insynch with the White House. He gets agitated and annoyed with the line of questioning. This is the same problem with Obama, his skin is not thick enough to take any type of criticism or disagreement. Haven't you ever seen his perturbed look on his face when his teleprompter goes out? Is he too big a man to laugh at himself every once in awhile? Whoever questions him or the Administration gets a fatherly scolding, "Don't you talk to me that way boy".
So here's the deal, if the Health Care bill goes through, we are headed down a path we don't want to go. If we think that we're screwed with the insurance rates being too high, what the heck do you think will happen when we have to pay for millions of people to have insurance? For those of us that don't agree with the bill, there is criticism that we don't have a heart of charity for those less fortunate. Let me tell you something, this isn't about not wanting to take care of those that don't have the ability to pay for their medical needs, it's about not wanting government to take control over our health care. Additionally, we don't want to be held accountable for trillions of dollars that is unsustainable! How can Obama honestly tell the American people that this bill will save money? Explain that to me, because I just don't get it.
Maybe it's time for us to send a bigger memo.

Welcome 2010!
Happy New Year! I can honestly say that I'm thankful 2009 is over, boy what a year it has been.
Over the last several months I have not had the motivation to write anything. Maybe I've been wallowing. It started with disbelief of the newly elected president, the fear set in. Remembering his journey on the campaign trail and the message he delivered to 'fundamentally transform America', I could not comprehend how so many people blindly followed this man. The effect of his presidency immediately set in. I sat idly doing nothing but watching and waiting. The lunacy, idiocy and unbelievable moments that stand out for me are:
Reverend Jeremiah Wright, the pastor of Obama's church for 20 years (Obama left the church after the controversial videos of Rev. Wrights blashemy and blatant statements of racism against the white man).
Van Jones, introduced in Obama's administration who is a self avowed communist (later fired from his post).
The constant love affair the media had with Obama. Those media outlets commenting about Fox News having a right wing agenda.
The chase of Sarah Palin and vicious, derogatory, defiling treatment to her and her family.
Acorn sting. Prostitute and pimp posing to get assistance in purchasing a house to run an illegal sex operation with young girls. The Acorn members under hidden camera one after another offered advice on how to be deceitful about the occupation, and even claiming these girls as dependents.
Cash for Clunkers. A government scam to trade in your clunker vehicle for a new eco-friendly ride. When logging in to the cars.gov website a disclaimer came up notifying you that when you are logged on to the website your computer is considered a federal computer system and it is property of the United States government. After the story was brought to the public, the statement was changed.
The statement Obama made about the police officers who arrested his Harvard professor friend, 'They acted stupidly'. Yet he did not have all the facts about the case.
The murders committed by an Islamic terrorist Nidal Malik Hasan on the Army Base at Fort Hood. The reaction from the White House was, 'not to rush to judgement'.
White House attacks on the tea party movement and Fox News.
Renaming the National Day of Prayer on 9/11 to the National Day of Service. Thanks to Mr. Obama.
The forceful urgency to pass a universal health care bill. (Way to much about this absurdity to comment much further. I'll save it for another time).
These were just some of the things that have made me ask the question, "what the heck has happened to our country?" Then, my heart palpitations began to subside. I witnessed the tea party movement.
I'm ready for 2010. My resolution this year will be to continue seeking the truth. For me, that is starting with The Bible.
Happy New Year! May your year be full of bountiful blessings and new direction.

Beer Blast Hosted by Barry
When Mr. Obama decided he should get involved in local issues when a buddy of his was arrested at his home, he stooped to a new low. A synopsis on the situation....
A Harvard University professor locked himself out of his home, so he and a friend had to break in. A situation that has hap pend to many of us. Concerned neighbors thought the house was being broke into and called the local police. The police arrived and let him know there was a suspected break in, then proceeded to ask for his identification. The professor flipped his lid and began to shout racism. The professor did show his Harvard University ID card, however continued to shout derogatory things at the police officer. Finally, the professor was arrested for interfering with police business, as he should have. This brings us to Barry. During I believe his 4th or 5th press conference during his first 7 months in office, he was asked a question about the situation. His reply, 'I don't know all the facts...', 'I believe the police acted stupidly'... Big mistake Mr. President.
After this whole debacle, Barry didn't apologize to the police officer, but asked him to come over for a beer. Come again? How classy and dignified Mr. President. You can't admit you were wrong so you let your 'cool' gene come out and speak for you. Well at least it gave you a great photo op for the country to see you in your coolness having a beer. After all, he is trying to teach us something. We can all learn from this whole experience. Want to know what I learned? That when your a friend of the President and you feel that you've been done wrong, the person(s) who did you wrong will get a call from the President. Ahhh...that makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.
No one knows what the full conversation was, but we do know an apology was made. An apology from the officer. Are we living in the bizarro world? Whatever happened to, "I was wrong and I'm sorry"? I guess some people are too proud to humble themselves and admit when they've made a mistake.

Walking Blind
It has been a little while since I've written. So much has happened that it's difficult to chose one thing to write on. So here's what I'm thinking....
I watch in disbelief at what our president is doing. It's almost surreal, as if it's all just some big joke. The scary thing is, it is happening now, we are seeing our world change before us, just like he promised. Not the change you expected. I think what scares me the most, is that we're letting it happen. We are walking blind, oblivious to what is being taken. When I've tried to inform my family and friends about what I saw reported on the news, they have no clue, no idea and go about their lives. I want to shake them, to scream, "Don't you get it! Don't you see!"But then I have to think, no, they are like so many others who thinks that Mr. O. is "cool", "better than what we had", "doing what he can to get us out of this mess". Pass after pass, he can do no wrong.
A few things to think about...
**The government now owns GE. They have the power (never did before) to fire CEO's of companies.
**The government has passed a stimulus bill that can not be paid back. A note to all, they are planning on spending trillions of dollars over the next several years.
**The government does not want the wealthy to succeed, for if they do, they will be punished with higher taxes.
**The government wants Universal Healthcare. This means that everyone who doesn't have insurance must get it. In the latest version of a bill, parents will be forced to pay their children's insurance until they are 26.
**The government wants to close Gitmo and release the prisoners into American prisons.
**The government wants to confirm the Supreme Court nominee Sonya Sotomayor who will rule based on empathy, not the court of law.
A few things to note about the current president:
-He has people on his staff that failed to pay their taxes
-His gift to the Prime Minister of Britain was a pack of DVD's
-His gift to the Queen of England was an IPod with his speeches
-His pastor for 20 years Jeremiah Wright preached on Black Power
-He was a community organizer before he was elected to run this country
-He could not produce a birth certificate
-He chose to not participate in the National Day of Prayer
-His staff went on a photo op over the New York skyline scaring hundreds of people in the streets
-His staff no longer uses the word terrorist
-He said, "We are not a Christian nation" "....We could be one of the largest Muslim nations" (These were not spoken in the same speech).
-His VP Joe Biden has said that money will be wasted when speaking on the stimulus bill. Joe Biden also said Mr. Obama doesn't have the experience to be the President
-He spent 300K to take his wife on a date to dinner and a Broadway show while he preaches to us that we need to watch our own budget
This ladies and gentleman is the man running our country. I ask that you please, please start paying attention. Tune into a news network that gives it to you straight, that reports on what is happening. Don't walk around blind anymore. We our losing our country. We need the government to start listening to us, fearing us not the other way around. We employ them. They work for us.

Air Force One Photo Op
On Monday morning, panic hit the streets of New York when a low flying playing buzzed the skyline. Was it another attack? Is it going to fly into a building? People were scurrying around the streets looking overhead to see what might be coming. There worst nightmare could be happening again. But wait, it wasn't a terrorist, the plane wasn't aiming towards any buildings, what the hell is going on? Ladies and gentleman, this was Air Force One (well the backup for the official Air Force One). Yes, that's right the plane was from the White House.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jn0tMMYEkQU
As news got out, Mayor Bloomberg was furious and had every right to be. Who could be so stupid to authorize a stunt like this for a freaking photo op? And who would ask this to be kept from the public? Were they trying to cause a panic, because that is exactly what they did. I don't care if it has been months, years or decades from when we had planes flying into our New York buildings, you DON'T do that. I don't live in New York, but I tell you what, when I see planes flying up above the thought always crosses my mind, are they going to hit us?
Since I don't normally watch the local news, I don't know how or if this story was covered. But if this were a screw up by the Bush Administration, it would be all over the place. We'd see protesters in the streets and condemnation from the news outlets about this debacle. Mr. O might say he was furious when he heard the news, but wouldn't he have to had to know about this? I mean come on, why else would there be a photo op of Air Force One? Of all the weak and wrong decisions he's made since he took office, this has to be by far the dumbest, inexcusable examples of where his priorities are.
My mission this weekend is to ask at least 5 people if they've heard about this to see if they are 'in the know'. So far, all of the things that I've brought attention to and has been widely reported on talk radio and the only fair news network, the only replies I receive are either, "no, I hadn't heard that" or "he's only been in office for a few months." Listen, I don't care if he was in there a day, this is something you don't just turn away from.

So I'm a terrorist??
The tea parties were a success, and the main stream media is still trying to dumb it down. The reporting done by the mainstream media was appalling. One CNN reporter decided to give her opinion and interrupted a gentleman who was trying to answer her question. As he was giving his reasoning for being there, she rudely stopped him saying, "What does this have to do with taxes? Do you know that you're eligible for a 400 dollar..." After he told her he was answering her question, she gave a plug about the stimulus package. What?! Now wait a second, since when are reporters suppose to provide their opinion? Their job is to REPORT the news regardless of your views or feelings. She went on to say that the tea parties were .."anti-government, anti-CNN since this is highly promoted by the right-wing conservative network Fox."
Other media outlets barely paid attention or made a mockery out of it. I tell you this, if there was a war protest going on, the left wing media would be out there letting the people speak and actually covering it. Where is the fair and balanced?
Since these protests were no big deal (according to most media) why is it that there was an alert given to the police departments to 'keep an eye' on 'Right Wing Extremists'. Apparently I along with many other hard working, principled, informed, gun owning Americans should be on a watch list.

Read this document. This is frighting folks. I guess our views and opinions are not welcome and the government doesn't want any backtalk (if you will) about anything they do. I encourage you to pass this along.
