The Right Way Forward

The funniest thing about this president is that the very people who supported him are the ones who stand to lose the most.
The people like Springsteen, Sheryl Crow, Barbra Streisand, Oprah Winfrey, Tim Robbins and all the other musicians and Hollywood elite who make more than $250,000/year.
All the naive, college sheep that have no clue about the world other than what they read in books and hear from their professors, on their parent’s dime.
Hey, let me know how it all works out for you in a few years after you land that high paying job.

     In less than three months time, Barack Obama has demonstrated his inability to effectively govern and lead the people of the United States of America.

     His actions have not only been embarrassing, but have been detrimental to the safety and well being of us all.

     Barack Obama has clearly shown that his self serving political agenda is all that matters.  His contempt for the United States of America is no secret.  His ties to Bill Ayers, Jeremiah Wright, Rashid Khalidi, Antoin Rezko, and Father Michael Pfleger, can no longer be dismissed as innocent acquaintances. 

     His most recent appointee, Harold Koh, strengthens the argument that Obama is hell bent on reinventing the United States of America.

     At any time up until now, this president could have demonstrated his ability to be more towards the center and be more on the side of democracy rather than socialism.  Instead, we now have government owned banks, government run automakers and a deficit that has tripled.

     This president has continued to weaken The United States as a world power by apologizing to European nations for perceived wrongdoings.  He has allowed this country to be criticized by foreign nations. And yes, he has bowed down to foreign leaders.

     This president has called the American people arrogant.  He has, and has allowed those appointed by him, to put blame on The United States of America for many of the world’s problems.

     This administration has, and continues to reward bad behavior.  Run your company into the ground. The government will bail you out.  Can’t afford your mortgage? The government will bail you out.  Can’t pay your credit card bills?  The government will bail you out.  

     I pay my mortgage.  I pay my credit card bills.  I wake up and go to work every day.  I am proud to be American and apologize to no one.  I believe we are the best nation in the world and if that makes me arrogant then so be it. I believe in democracy and know that socialism of any kind does not work.  Ever. 

      Now is the time for all patriotic citizens to join together in a vote of NO CONFIDENCE for this president and this administration.   

If you are disgusted with the new administration, here’s your chance to be seen and heard.

Staten Island Tea Party

What if we all stopped paying our mortgages?  What if we all stopped paying our credit card bills?  What if we all woke tomorrow morning and didn’t go to work?  Where would the money come from for the redistribution?

You see this President believes that rather than say working harder or living within your means, the rich should support the not so rich. You know, just like he said,  “… just want to make sure that everybody who is behind you, that they’ve got a chance at success, too… My attitude is that if the economy’s good for folks from the bottom up, it’s gonna be good for everybody.

So I ask, why should the poor get to be like the not so poor?   Why don’t we get to become like them?  Why should I wake up tomorrow morning, go to work and make barley enough money to cover my expenses?  Why should I have to budget my money, pay my bills,  my mortgage?

Let’s all assimilate…………………………….

God Bless The United States of America

Ever wonder what became of the American Communist Party after the fall of the Soviet Union?   Many went on to form the Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism. (CCDS) 

Here is their vision statement taken from their website:

“The Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism (CCDS) struggles toward a vision of unity and solidarity among all people. We struggle for a world of just, humane laws, based upon unqualified respect for the rights and dignity of every human being. Multiracial unity is at the center of our vision and our struggle, free of every form of discrimination. “Our vision is one in which everyone is entitled to work at a living wage, and has full access to education, health care, and housing. We believe that economic resources should be used for the benefit of the many rather than for the profit of the few. To achieve this vision the means of producing wealth — the factories, the land, and the banks — must be controlled by the people, through a broad democracy in political and cultural life.”

There is also a movement within Communist Party USA (CPUSA) for Socialism USA.

In their words, taken from their website on: ”The Foundations of Socialism,”  they write:

“Socialism starts with nationalization of the main means of production – the plants, factories, agri-business farms and everything necessary to produce what society needs. The large monopoly corporations and banks come under public ownership, that is, under the collective ownership of the entire working class and people, who have the leading role in building socialism.  Socialism also means public ownership of the energy industry and all the natural resources. It eliminates forever the power of the capitalist class to exploit and oppress the majority.  Public services – schools, hospitals, utilities, transit, parks, roads – are crumbling under capitalism. …………The U.S. will become a vast construction site. Homes, schools, hospitals, places of recreation will be built to end shortages, replace substandard infrastructures and public facilities.”

Education, Energy and Health Care.  In the President’s own words from his his speech to congress, “….three areas that are absolutely critical to our economic future: energy, health care, and education.”

How about the idea of eliminating the power to exploit and oppress the majority?  How many times did the President in his speech acknowledge the 95% of “working families” who will now benefit?

How about  this “Stimulus Bill?” How it is going to create vast amounts of jobs, building new infrastructure; schools, homes, roads, transit?

There is more but I think you get the point.  It all could’ve been taken right from the pages of the CPUSA & the CCDS.  

McCarthy would have a field day………………….. 

This is for real. This is now. This is reality.  And all within forty one days of this new administration. 

God Bless the United States of America.

God help us.

Does anyone hear what the President is saying?  It seems that everyone is listening.  But is anyone actually hearing what is coming out of his mouth?  His speech to congress last Tuesday was a lesson in both contradiction and hypocrisy.  

Briefly, among other things, the president acknowledges the financial mess on the banks careless lending policies and the failed mortgages. Yet he  says that to get this economy going, the banks must begin to open up credit and begin lending.   Now I ask you, are we to assume that there is no lending taking place at this time?  He says, “……credit has stopped flowing the way it should…….And when there is no lending, families can’t afford to buy homes or cars.”  So, no one is getting a mortgage at this time?  No one is financing a new car?  Interesting indeed, especially when there are those that are buying homes, securing mortgages and financing new cars. Perhaps what he means is that the banks should loosen their new stringent lending policies.  

The President went on to say that, “If your family earns less than $250,000 a year — a quarter million dollars a year — you will not see your taxes increased a single dime.” He also stated that, “By 2020, America will once again have the highest proportion of college graduates in the world. That’s is a goal we can meet.”  

So let me get this straight, he wants to make sure America has the highest rate of college  graduates in the world, but is going to end up penalizing them when they secure the well off, high paying jobs.  Isn’t that why we go to college?  To get high paying jobs and better ourselves.  Over $250,000 per family?  Is it that unusual for two college graduates who marry to make say $125,000 each per year? I’m sorry but higher taxes ought not be the reward for those, who through hard work and determination, have prospered.

Now these hypocrisies are bad enough, but what is truly disturbing are the blatant socialist undertones of the entire speech.   “…….we will act with the full force of the federal government to ensure that the major banks that Americans depend on have enough confidence and enough money to lend even in more difficult times….. we will hold accountable those responsible, force the necessary adjustments……… ”  Act with the full force of the government?  Force the necessary adjustments? WOW.  He goes on to say, “And I intend to hold these banks fully accountable for the assistance they receive……….”  Do you see what is happening here folks?  When the government bails out the banks, lends the money, they control the banks.  Right there in black and white.   

Want to talk “Fear Mongering?”  The President says, “Because of this [stimulus] plan, there are teachers who can now keep their jobs and educate our kids. Health care professionals can continue caring for our sick. There are 57 police officers who are still on the streets of Minneapolis tonight because this plan prevented the layoffs their department was about to make.”    

So wait a second.  Without this stimulus bill, our kids will not get an education?  The sick would  go uncared for?  Police officers would be laid off?  My god. Thank you Mr. President.  Thank you for saving us.  

There was even a promise to help discover a cure for cancer.   In discussing the new  Health Care Reforms, he said, “It will launch a new effort to conquer a disease that has touched the life of nearly every American, including me, by seeking a cure for cancer in our time.”  Who would have thought?  For years now we have been told that “they” are working to find a cure for cancer. Thank God for this President.  He is finally going to help find that cure for cancer.   Can he walk on water too?

Bottom line is this, there are many things wrong with this country.  Health care does need to be reformed.  But perhaps a good place to start would be to weed out all the corruption, fraud and frivolous law suits.  How much wasted money could be saved?

And yes everyone should get the best education they could. However, it is not your right to go to college.  If you didn’t work hard enough in high school to get a scholarship or if mommy and daddy can’t pay your tuition, GET A JOB and go to night school.  You’ll appreciate it more.  

The economy is definitely in disarray. However, in a Capitalistic society, businesses do go under.  Bad choices do result in monetary losses.  Jobs do unfortunately diminish.  But when one company closes, others open. New jobs get created. New avenues of prosperity are opened up.    

These bailouts are nothing more than corporate welfare. It will lead to a Socialist government.  Bad behavior and poor choices cannot and should not be rewarded.  Unfortunately that has become the norm of the day.  Run your company into the ground.  Don’t worry, we’ll bail you out.  Want to get pregnant and have eight kids without a job and health insurance?  Don’t worry we’ll take care of that too.  

Look, we may not all be born of equal circumstances.  Some of us may have to work harder than others.  Some will succeed and some will not.  We are all capable of choosing our own destiny. 

But, as this last election taught us, it doesn’t matter if you’re black or white, Baptist, Protestant, Catholic or maybe even Muslim…..if you know the right people, make the right friends, and have a lot of money, you too can be President of the United States. 

GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
