Hardly A Mandate

These figures are very intriguing. Obama is our President and is the Executive so his job of pushing policy and direction for the country is self evident. However, these figures should act as a brake for liberals that feel they have a mandate to push their ill conceived and misguided agenda. I ask that the liberals remember who rights the checks for this country. Once again you have been elected into power and destroyed your selves. Let this be a lesson that your subjective altruism is nothing more than over zealous, self righteous, hyper elitist bull shit. It takes a MAJOR leap of faith to conscribe to the ends you proclaim. Throughout your heathenistic condemnation of non-secular theology, you have only replaced it with your own secular theology. You have replaced God with Man, and the Church with the Government. Your pursuit of Utopian Humanism is counter to our evolution. It becomes more evident over time that you are the weak link. You have convinced many with your promises of Hope. This is nothing but a false Hope. Your Hope is a wolf in sheeps clothing.

Face it liberal children, America is right of center. So, shovel your shit elsewhere.
Now, of the soap box...please enjoy and contemplate the numbers.

-Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law, St. Paul , Minnesota , points out some interesting facts concerning last November's Presidential election:

a.. Number of States won by: Democrats: 19 Republicans: 29

b.. Square miles of land won by: Democrats: 580,000 Republicans: 2,427,000

c..Population of counties won by: Democrats: 127 million Republicans: 143 million

d..Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Democrats: 13.2 Republicans: 2.1

Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory Republicans won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of the country.

Democrat territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in low income tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..."

Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the "complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.

I will concede...we conservatives need you liberals to help balance out the scales. But when it comes to management of a nation, management of an economy, and guidance into the future, maybe you should actually manage or create wealth on your own first.

Watch Out Dems - Beginning of the End

Watch these Elections next week. The outcome of these will act as a vote of confidence or no confidence with the current Administration. If the Conservatives can pull these out BHO is finished and his liberal agenda is finished.

Election 2009: Virginia Governor Election
Rasmussen Poll - October 28

Robert F. McDonnell (R) 54%
R. Creigh Deeds (D) 41%

- +13 Points

Election 2009: New Jersey Governor
Rasmussen Poll - October 28

Chris Christie (R) 46%
Jon Corzine (D) 43% - Incumbent

- +3% Points

Election 2009: New York 23rd Congressional - Special Election

Hoffman (C) 34%
Owens (D) 29%
Scozzafava (R) 14%

*Fiscal Cons must support Hoffman in this Election. He is the only conservative in the race. The Republican is part of the New York Political Machine and as liberal as any other Dem.

This is the Beginning of the End Libs. Hope you had fun!

Also, pay attention to the 2010 Florida Republican Primary for the US Senate.
Crist is in the running against Marco Rubio a young fiscal con who will be the face of the Republican party someday very soon.

Support Rubio!!!

Critical History -- David Kaiser

World renouned professor of history David Kaiser looks critically at history and the lessons that were clearly not learned by the Obama Administration and the people that voted him into power.

History Unfolding
I am a student of history. Professionally, I have written 15 books on history that have been published in six languages, and I have studied history all my life. I have come to think there is something monumentally large afoot, and I do not believe it is simply a banking crisis, or a mortgage crisis, or a credit crisis. Yes these exist, but they are merely single facets on a very large gemstone that is only now coming into a sharper focus.

Something of historic proportions is happening. I can sense it because I know how it feels, smells, what it looks like, and how people react to it. Yes, a perfect storm may be brewing, but there is something happening within our country that has been evolving for about ten to fifteen years. The pace has dramatically quickened in the past two.

We demand and then codify into law the requirement that our banks make massive loans to people we know they can never pay back? Why?

We learned just days ago that the Federal Reserve, which has little or no real oversight by anyone, has "loaned" two trillion dollars (that is $2,000,000,000,000) over the past few months, but will not tell us to whom or why or disclose the terms. That is our money. Yours and mine. And that is three times the $700 billion we all argued about so strenuously just this past September.

Who has this money? Why do they have it? Why are the terms unavailable to us? Who asked for it? Who authorized it? I thought this was a government of "we the people," who loaned our powers to our elected leaders. Apparently not. We have spent two or more decades intentionally de-industrializing our economy.. Why?

We have intentionally dumbed down our schools, ignored our history, and no longer teach our founding documents, why we are exceptional, and why we are worth preserving. Students by and large cannot write, think critically, read, or articulate. Parents are not revolting, teachers are not picketing, school boards continue to back mediocrity. Why?

We have now established the precedent of protesting every close election (violently in California over a proposition that is so controversial that it simply wants marriage to remain defined as between one man and one woman. Did you ever think such a thing possible just a decade ago?) We have corrupted our sacred political process by allowing unelected judges to write laws that radically change our way of life, and then mainstream Marxist groups like ACORN and others to turn our voting system into a banana republic. To what purpose?

Now our mortgage industry is collapsing, housing prices are in free fall, major industries are failing, our banking system is on the verge of collapse, social security is nearly bankrupt, as is Medicare and our entire government. Our education system is worse than a joke (I teach college and I know precisely what I am talking about) - the list is staggering in its length, breadth, and depth.. It is potentially 1929 x ten...And we are at war with an enemy we cannot even name for fear of offending people of the same religion, who, in turn, cannot wait to slit the throats of your children if they have the opportunity to do so.

And finally, we have elected a man that no one really knows anything about, who has never run so much as a Dairy Queen, let alone a town as big as Wasilla , Alaska .. All of his associations and alliances are with real radicals in their chosen fields of employment, and everything we learn about him, drip by drip, is unsettling if not downright scary (Surely you have heard him speak about his idea to create and fund a mandatory civilian defense force stronger than our military for use inside our borders? No? Oh, of course. The media would never play that for you over and over and then demand he answer it. Sarah Palin's pregnant daughter and $150,000 wardrobe are more important.)

Mr. Obama's winning platform can be boiled down to one word: Change. Why?
I have never been so afraid for my country and for my children as I am now.
This man campaigned on bringing people together, something he has never, ever done in his professional life. In my assessment, Obama will divide us along philosophical lines, push us apart, and then try to realign the pieces into a new and different power structure. Change is indeed coming. And when it comes, you will never see the same nation again.
And that is only the beginning..

As a serious student of history, I thought I would never come to experience what the ordinary, moral German must have felt in the mid-1930s In those times, the "savior" was a former smooth-talking rabble-rouser from the streets, about whom the average German knew next to nothing. What they should have known was that he was associated with groups that shouted, shoved, and pushed around people with whom they disagreed; he edged his way onto the political stage through great oratory. Conservative "losers" read it right now.

And there were the promises. Economic times were tough, people were losing jobs, and he was a great speaker. And he smiled and frowned and waved a lot. And people, even newspapers, were afraid to speak out for fear that his "brown shirts" would bully and beat them into submission. Which they did - regularly. And then, he was duly elected to office, while a full-throttled economic crisis bloomed at hand - the Great Depression. Slowly, but surely he seized the controls of government power, person by person, department by department, bureaucracy by bureaucracy. The children of German citizens were at first, encouraged to join a Youth Movement in his name where they were taught exactly what to think. Later, they were required to do so.

No Jews of course. How did he get people on his side? He did it by promising jobs to the jobless, money to the money-less, and rewards for the military-industrial complex. He did it by indoctrinating the children, advocating gun control, health care for all, better wages, better jobs, and promising to re-instill pride once again in the country, across Europe , and across the world. He did it with a compliant media - did you know that? And he did this all in the name of justice and ..... . .. change. And the people surely got what they voted for.

If you think I am exaggerating, look it up. It's all there in the history books. So read your history books. Many people of conscience objected in 1933 and were shouted down, called names, laughed at, and ridiculed. When Winston Churchill pointed out the obvious in the late 1930s while seated in the House of Lords in England (he was not yet Prime Minister), he was booed into his seat and called a crazy troublemaker. He was right, though.. And the world came to regret that he was not listened to.

Do not forget that Germany was the most educated, the most cultured country in Europe . It was full of music, art, museums, hospitals, laboratories, and universities. And yet, in less than six years (a shorter time span than just two terms of the U. S. presidency) it was rounding up its own citizens, killing others, abrogating its laws, turning children against parents, and neighbors against neighbors.. All with the best of intentions, of course. The road to Hell is paved with them.
As a practical thinker, one not overly prone to emotional decisions, I have a choice: I can either believe what the objective pieces of evidence tell me (even if they make me cringe with disgust); I can believe what history is shouting to me from across the chasm of seven decades; or I can hope I am wrong by closing my eyes, having another latte, and ignoring what is transpiring around me..

I choose to believe the evidence. No doubt some people will scoff at me, others laugh, or think I am foolish, naive, or both. To some degree, perhaps I am. But I have never been afraid to look people in the eye and tell them exactly what I believe-and why I believe it.
I pray I am wrong. I do not think I am. Perhaps the only hope is our vote in the next elections.

Don't Follow -- Go To Jail

Rhetorical Tax Evasion

The IRS says it will fine or jail you for not paying Obama's mandate levy.

Wall Street Journal Online -- September 29, 2009

President Obama's effort to deny that his mandate to buy insurance is a tax has taken another thumping, this time from fellow Democrats in the Senate Finance Committee.

Chairman Max Baucus's bill includes the so-called individual mandate, along with what he calls a $1,900 "excise tax" if you don't buy health insurance. (It had been as much as $3,800 but Democrats reduced the amount last week to minimize the political sticker shock.) And, lo, it turns out that if you don't pay that tax, the IRS could punish you with a $25,000 fine or up to a year in jail, or both.

Under questioning last week, Tom Barthold, the chief of staff of the Joint Committee on Taxation, admitted that the individual mandate would become a part of the Internal Revenue Code and that failing to comply "could be criminal, yes, if it were considered an attempt to defraud." Mr. Barthold noted in a follow-up letter that the willful failure to file would be a simple misdemeanor, punishable by the $25,000 fine or jail time under Section 7203.

So failure to pay the mandate would be enforced like tax evasion, but Mr. Obama still claims it isn't a tax. "You can't just make up that language and decide that that's called a tax increase," Mr. Obama insisted last week to ABC interviewer George Stephanopoulos. Accusing critics of dishonesty is becoming this President's default argument, but is Mr. Barthold also part of the plot?

In the 1994 health-care debate, the Congressional Budget Office called the individual mandate "an unprecedented form of federal action." This is because "The government has never required people to buy any good or service as a condition of lawful residence in the United States."

This coercion will be even more onerous today because everyone will be forced to buy insurance that the new taxes and regulations of ObamaCare will make far more expensive. Too bad Mr. Obama's rhetorical tax evasion can't be punished by the IRS.

Support the Honduran Coup

All fiscal cons and neocons should love and embrace Honduras. We can learn something from their commitment to democracy and capitalism.

The automatic response condemning President Zelaya’s removal by many political leaders in the region reveals the appalling degree to which they have ceased defending democracy. As Roberto Micheletti, chosen by the Honduran Congress to complete Zelaya’s term, observed, “What was done here was a democratic act. Our constitution continues to be relevant, our democracy continues to live.”

What happened in Honduras was not a standard coup. The Supreme Court ordered the army to remove Zelaya from office. The Congress, albeit after his detention and exile, voted unanimously for his removal and confirmed his constitutionally mandated successor to fill the remainder of his term in office.

Kudos to Honduras and the constitutional leaders of its' coup! Unfortunately, the President and the rest of the Administration do not feel a similar sense of solidarity with the patriots of Honduras. Amidst a region of Che Socialism and Anti-American sentiment, one would think the President of the 'free world' would embrace this beacon of freedom and democracy. However, one would be wrong with this thought. It is now quite apparent that the appeasement of Chavez and Cuba, and meeting with tyrants in Iran, is much more important to this President. With a collective voice our newly crowned ruler proclaims "America is sorry."

I respectfully, disagree Mr. President. America should never have to apologize for anything it does. This is the greatest empire in world history, thus far. Julius Caesar could only have imagined this kind of power in his dreams. The sitting President of the United States does not apologize for its actions. The U.S. may learn from mistakes, but looking forward the United States is the torchbearer and leader of freedom for the rest of the world. Where is the respect for a leader that admits they don't know the directions? The ends may be unclear but the justification of the means in the United State's possession.
