Good Song

I just caught this on the Glenn Beck show. This is a pretty good song.

If you can't take the heat. Close down the kitchen?

Town halls gone wild.

Screaming constituents, protesters dragged out by the cops, congressmen fearful for their safety — welcome to the new town-hall-style meeting, the once-staid forum that is rapidly turning into a house of horrors for members of Congress.

Still don't think our government is out of control? The people have spoken, they are not happy with the way things are being run. What have some of our congressman decided to do? Shut out the voices.

In at least one case, a congressman has stopped holding town hall events because the situation has spiraled so far out of control.

“I had felt they would be pointless,” Rep. Tim Bishop (D-N.Y.) told POLITICO, referring to his recent decision to temporarily suspend the events in his Long Island district. “There is no point in meeting with my constituents and [to] listen to them and have them listen to you if what is basically an unruly mob prevents you from having an intelligent conversation.”

Firstly Rep. Bishop is obviously not listening to his constituents, or he would realize where the problem lies. Secondly if this were some minority group airing their grievances everyone would be forced to listen, to not do so would be discriminatory. However because these are regular tax paying citizens with no special interest group to lean on it's okay to sweep them under the rug. My final issue stems from this statement made by Rep. Bishop.

“I have no problem with someone disagreeing with positions I hold,” Bishop said, noting that, for the time being, he was using other platforms to communicate with his constituents. “But I also believe no one is served if you can’t talk through differences.”

Who gives a damn what your positions are. The fact of the matter is Congressional reps have one job. Listen to and record the grievances and opinions of the people they represent, and carry those to Washington. These people were not elected to tell us what is best for us, they were elected to serve as our go between with the White House. I think many in Congress have outgrown their positions, and it's time for a housecleaning. If we allow this to continue how long will it be before all government business is conducted behind closed doors?

Obama's Ten Commandments

I. Thou shalt have no God in America, except for me. For we are no longer a Christian nation and, after all, I am the chosen One. (And like God, I do not have a birth certificate.)

II. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, unless it is my face carved on Mt. Rushmore.

III. Thou shalt not utter my middle name in vain (or in public). Only I can say Barack Hussein Obama.

IV. Remember tax day, April 15th, to keep it holy.

V. Honour thy father and thy mother until they are too old and sick to care for. They will cost our public-funded health-care system too much money.

VI. Thou shalt not kill, unless you have an unwanted, unborn baby. For it would be an abomination to punish your daughter with a baby.

VII. Thou shalt not commit adultery if you are conservative or a Republican. Liberals and Democrats are hereby forgiven for all of their infidelity and immorality, but the careers of conservatives will be forever destroyed.

VIII. Thou shalt not steal, until you've been elected to public office. Only then is it acceptable to take money from hard-working, successful citizens and give it to those who do not work, illegal immigrants, or those who do not have the motivation to better their own lives.

IX. Thou shalt not discriminate against thy neighbor unless they are conservative, Caucasian, or Christian.

X. Thou shalt not covet because it is simply unnecessary. I will place such a heavy tax burden on those that have achieved the American Dream that, by the end of my term as President, nobody will have any wealth or material goods left for you to covet.

Racism and "Hate Crimes"

On the night of June 27, Marty Marshall and his family were standing outside a friend’s home in Akron, OH. The group had gathered to watch a fireworks display at nearby Firestone Park, the festive night ended suddenly, when the family as well as their friends were brutally attacked by a group of nearly 50 black teenagers

Where was Obama's righteous indignation when this atrocity occured? Where was the national media, oh yeah, they were reporting about the poor daycampers in Philidelphia who lost their place to swim. The police say they are not sure if this was gang activity, so they are not ready to declare it a hate crime.

Marty says the boys were all chanting while attacking. "They just kept chanting and yelling out", said Marshall.

"A couple of them said 'This is a black world' and the other ones sat there and were saying 'This is our world'.

Sounds pretty racially motivated to me. A while back my friend got into an argument with a neighbor who happened to be Mexican. The dispute was over lawncare and property boundaries, however during the course of the argument my friend in his infinite wisdom used several racial epithets. The police were called and things were ended before they went too far. One of the officers who arrived on the scene told my friend that if the situation had come to blows he could have been charged with a hate crime because of the things he said during the altercation.

As far as I am concerned every crime is a hate crime, you don't commit a crime against somebody you like or respect. Why are we wasting our time debating the severity of the same crime committed by different people? How about if we just put all the criminals away for their crimes, and get on with our damn lives.

This kind of lopsided justice can't work anywhere. This is simply another case of political correctness in sheeps clothing. If it's really true that Jewish families have cornered the market on guilt, then white Americans must be running a close second. You simply cannot enforce racial harmony. I will never like beets, and some people will never get along, no law will change either of those things. The best we can do is make the laws equal for everyone across the board.

In the old days children were were taught valuable lessons through folk tales, I think I have a new one for the coming generations, it's called "The boy who cried racism".

GUARDIANS OF THE NIGHT

I am dedicating this to my Son-in-law Mike, and his K-9 partner Tex.

Trust in me my friend for I am your comrade.

I will protect you with my last breath.

When all others have left you

And the loneliness of the night closes in, I will be at your side.

Together we will conquer all obstacles

And search out those who might wish harm to others.

All I ask of you is compassion,

The caring touch of your hands.

It is for you that I will selflessly give my

life And spend my nights un rested.

Although our days together

May be marked by the passing of the seasons.

Know that each day at your side is my reward.

My days are measured by

The coming and going of your footsteps.
I anticipate them at the opening of the door.

You are the voice of caring when I am ill.
The voice of authority over me when I've done wrong.

Do not chastise me unduly For I am your right arm,

The sword at your side.

I attempt to do only what you bid of me.

I seek only to please you and remain in your favor.

Together you and I shall experience
A bond only others like you will understand.

When outsiders see us together
Their envy will be measured by their disdain.

I will quietly listen to you And pass no judgment.

Nor will your spoken words be repeated.

I will remain ever silent, Ever vigilant, ever loyal.

And when our time together is done And you move on in the world,

Remember me with kind thoughts and tales.

For a time we were unbeatable, Nothing passed among us undetected.

If we should ever meet again on another field I will gladly take up your fight.

I am a Police Working Dog and together

We are GUARDIANS of the NIGHT.

Commerce Secretary: Americans ‘Need to Pay’ for Chinese Emissions

With the U.S. secretaries of energy and commerce in China this week, much of the attention focused on the standoff over emissions reductions or small breakthroughs in clean-tech cooperation.

But yesterday, Commerce Secretary Gary Locke said something amazing—U.S. consumers should pay for part of Chinese greenhouse-gas emissions. From Reuters:

“It’s important that those who consume the products being made all around the world to the benefit of America — and it’s our own consumption activity that’s causing the emission of greenhouse gases, then quite frankly Americans need to pay for that,” Commerce Secretary Gary Locke told the American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai.

"OMG! WTF! Now we have to pay for losing our jobs. Locke says their pollutuion is our fault for increasing the demand for their product, okay I have a solution. Decrease the demand for their products...........................by producing them here like we used to you f#$%ing morons! If you want China, India, and Mexico to stop polluting, then stop trying to jumpstart their f#$%ing economies! Globalization only works in sci-fi movies, and even in those it's usually a bad idea. When are we finally gonna get a politician who says, hey maybe we should get America straightened out before we solve the worlds problems? Please write to your Congressional reps, tell them we want American jobs, we want American products, and we want American prosperity!"

Journalist inviting friends to flogging

By Bob Unruh© 2009 WorldNetDaily

Facebook is one of the top social networking sites, and probably sees millions of invitations posted each day, but one put up by a journalist in the Sudan probably is unique: It invites her friends and the public to her flogging.

According to a report today from the Middle East Media Research Institute, Lubna Ahmad Hussein posted the invitation to her friends and supporters to "stir up a scandal around her case."

As WND reported just days ago, she was among the women – including many Christians – arrested and flogged for wearing trousers. Read entire story here.

Dems New Welfare Plan to Target... Horses?

This is an outrage! I'm trying to work up as much self-righteous lather as I can over this latest piece of Democrat insanity, but I just can't stop laughing at it: Wild horses couldn’t keep Democrats from spending money

House Democrats plan to hold a vote on the “Restore Our American Mustangs Act” (H.R.1018), which would create a new $700 million welfare program for wild horses. This floor action comes at a time when unemployment has soared to 9.5 percent, a 26-year high, and the federal deficit has grown to a historic $1 trillion.

Here’s what HR1018 proposes to do with the $700 million:

• Conducts a horse census every two years
• Provides “enhanced contraception” and birth control for horses
• Establishes an additional 19 million acres of public and private land for wild horses
• Covers $5 million tab to repair horse damage to land
• Mandates that government bureaucrats perform home inspections before Americans can adopt horses

Birth control … for horses. How exactly does that restore the mustang population? If it needs “restoring”, doesn’t that suggest that we need to encourage reproduction rather than launching a mustang safe-sex program? Of course, mustang rubbers would make each successive “horse census” easier, assuming mustangs can figure out how to wear them.

When it comes to crafting bills that are full of horse pucky, this Congress may be the best evah. More at the link above.

From Scott,

"But what if we tweaked the bill a little? You could replace horse with say, illegal immigrant. I would say you could drop the adoption part, but I'm sure Brangelina would want a few. Also I bet we could get a good deal on the 19 million acres in Mexico................I'm just saying."

I'm just waiting to see what intimidation tactics the administration will use to push this one through.

Bombshell: Orders revoked for soldier challenging prez

"Major victory for Army warrior questioning Obama's birthplace"

A U.S. Army Reserve major from Florida scheduled to report for deployment to Afghanistan within days has had his military orders revoked after arguing he should not be required to serve under a president who has not proven his eligibility for office.

His attorney, Orly Taitz, confirmed to WND the military has rescinded his impending deployment orders.

"We won! We won before we even arrived," she said with excitement. "It means that the military has nothing to show for Obama. It means that the military has directly responded by saying Obama is illegitimate – and they cannot fight it. Therefore, they are revoking the order!"

She continued, "They just said, 'Order revoked.' No explanation. No reasons – just revoked."

A hearing on the questions raised by Maj. Stefan Frederick Cook, an engineer who told WND he wants to serve his country in Afghanistan, was scheduled for July 16 at 9:30 a.m.

"As an officer in the armed forces of the United States, it is [my] duty to gain clarification on any order we may believe illegal. With that said, if President Obama is found not to be a 'natural-born citizen,' he is not eligible to be commander-in-chief," he told WND only hours after the case was filed.

"[Then] any order coming out of the presidency or his chain of command is illegal. Should I deploy, I would essentially be following an illegal [order]. If I happened to be captured by the enemy in a foreign land, I would not be privy to the Geneva Convention protections," he said.

The order for the hearing in the federal court for the Middle District of Georgia from U.S. District Judge Clay D. Land said the hearing on the request for a temporary restraining order would be held Thursday.

"While I personally believe that Obama is not a natural born U.S. citizen, and is therefore ineligible for presidency, and while I am glad that Americans are continuing to call him on this, I am still frightened by the precedence this sets. This situation has the potential to undermine our entire military. If the President can prove his birthplace he needs to stop playing games, and do so immediately. If however he cannot then he needs to step down before he does further damage to the country".

Obama Rewrites the Cold War

The President has a duty to stand up to the lies of our enemies.
By Liz Cheney

There are two different versions of the story of the end of the Cold War: the Russian version, and the truth. President Barack Obama endorsed the Russian version in Moscow last week.

Speaking to a group of students, our president explained it this way: "The American and Soviet armies were still massed in Europe, trained and ready to fight. The ideological trenches of the last century were roughly in place. Competition in everything from astrophysics to athletics was treated as a zero-sum game. If one person won, then the other person had to lose. And then within a few short years, the world as it was ceased to be. Make no mistake: This change did not come from any one nation. The Cold War reached a conclusion because of the actions of many nations over many years, and because the people of Russia and Eastern Europe stood up and decided that its end would be peaceful."

The truth, of course, is that the Soviets ran a brutal, authoritarian regime. The KGB killed their opponents or dragged them off to the Gulag. There was no free press, no freedom of speech, no freedom of worship, no freedom of any kind. The basis of the Cold War was not "competition in astrophysics and athletics." It was a global battle between tyranny and freedom. The Soviet "sphere of influence" was delineated by walls and barbed wire and tanks and secret police to prevent people from escaping. America was an unmatched force for good in the world during the Cold War. The Soviets were not. The Cold War ended not because the Soviets decided it should but because they were no match for the forces of freedom and the commitment of free nations to defend liberty and defeat Communism.

It is irresponsible for an American president to go to Moscow and tell a room full of young Russians less than the truth about how the Cold War ended. One wonders whether this was just an attempt to push "reset" -- or maybe to curry favor. Perhaps, most concerning of all, Mr. Obama believes what he said.

Mr. Obama's method for pushing reset around the world is becoming clearer with each foreign trip. He proclaims moral equivalence between the U.S. and our adversaries, he readily accepts a false historical narrative, and he refuses to stand up against anti-American lies.

The approach was evident in his speech in Moscow and in his speech in Cairo last month. In Cairo, he asserted there was some sort of equivalence between American support for the 1953 coup in Iran and the evil that the Iranian mullahs have done in the world since 1979. On an earlier trip to Mexico City, the president listened to an extended anti-American screed by Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega and then let the lies stand by responding only with, "I'm grateful that President Ortega did not blame me for the things that occurred when I was 3 months old."

Asked at a NATO meeting in France in April whether he believed in American exceptionalism, the president said, "I believe in American Exceptionalism just as I suspect that the Brits believe in British exceptionalism and the Greeks believe in Greek exceptionalism." In other words, not so much.

The Obama administration does seem to believe in another kind of exceptionalism -- Obama exceptionalism. "We have the best brand on Earth: the Obama brand," one Obama handler has said. What they don't seem to realize is that once you're president, your brand is America, and the American people expect you to defend us against lies, not embrace or ignore them. We also expect you to know your history.

Mr. Obama has become fond of saying, as he did in Russia again last week, that American nuclear disarmament will encourage the North Koreans and the Iranians to give up their nuclear ambitions. Does he really believe that the North Koreans and the Iranians are simply waiting for America to cut funds for missile defense and reduce our strategic nuclear stockpile before they halt their weapons programs?

The White House ought to take a lesson from President Harry Truman. In April, 1950, Truman signed National Security Council report 68 (NSC-68). One of the foundational documents of America's Cold War strategy, NSC-68 explains the danger of disarming America in the hope of appeasing our enemies. "No people in history," it reads, "have preserved their freedom who thought that by not being strong enough to protect themselves they might prove inoffensive to their enemies."

Perhaps Mr. Obama thinks he is making America inoffensive to our enemies. In reality, he is emboldening them and weakening us. America can be disarmed literally -- by cutting our weapons systems and our defensive capabilities -- as Mr. Obama has agreed to do. We can also be disarmed morally by a president who spreads false narratives about our history or who accepts, even if by his silence, our enemies' lies about us.

Ms. Cheney served as deputy assistant secretary of state and principal deputy assistant secretary of state for near eastern affairs from 2002-2004 and 2005-2006.

All right everyone say it with me now......................Palin & Cheney in 2012. And if the liberals give them problems we can simply browbeat them by saying they are sexist, and trying to stifle the feminist movement(wink,wink,nudge,nudge).

Contract or not, lesbian can't be 'mommy'

By Drew Zahn© 2009 WorldNetDaily

A district court judge ruled against a lesbian woman seeking to attain legal standing as the mother of her former lover's child and, in the process, struck a blow for parental rights.

In 2006, Gena-Louise Edvalson entered into a "contract" with her lover, Jana Dickson, to co-parent her partner's newborn son. But after the relationship ended, Edvalson sued Dickson, who is now married to a man, demanding the mother honor the contract and grant her former partner parental standing in the boy's life.

Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009

Well Congress is trying to push another anti-discrimination bill on us see the full bill here. What ever happened to personal responsibility, and advancement based on merit?

I'm sorry but is anyone out there still living in the 50's. We have a black President, and women have held just about every position of power in this country short of the Presidency, or vice presidency. Is discrimination so rampant that we need to continue bolstering the anti-discrimination laws. I have been working in the workforce for 22 years, and have never witnessed a blatant act of discrimination. I have however been witness to several frivolous lawsuits claiming discrimination.

That is the legacy of tougher anti-discrimination laws. These laws open employers up to baseless lawsuits, and force their hand to make ignorant decisions based primarily on race, and sex. The most recent case in point is the Conn. fire dept. who chose to discard their written test results in favor of an arbitrary promotion system. This was done after claims that the tests were discriminatory. Pardon me, but how can a written test be racially discriminatory, I thought we were all equal? We all have access to the same shitty educational system, so to say the test was somehow discriminatory would be the equivalent of saying blacks, and latinos are inferior to whites. Isn't that discrimination?

I think it's time for minorities to start stepping up, and proving their equality. This is why America "used" to encourage immigrants to acclimate. As Americans we are all equal, but that can never be achieved if minority groups continue to segregate themselves. I think that all these new anti-discrimination policies do is drive a wedge further between the American people. I have seen people passed over for raises, and promotions in the past, and as sad as it may be it was simply because they didn't deserve them. Now employers have to worry that if they pass over an employee for promotion, or refuse them a raise based on their performance that they will be sued for discrimination.

Let's put it this way. Imagine you go into your job, and bust your ass every day to do the best job you can. The person next to you however has no pride in their work and is just doing what they need to do to keep their job. For whatever reason a supervisory position has opened up in your dept., and based on your performance you're certain you will get the spot. The next day however, you find out that in fear of legal retaliation the company has given the promotion to your slacking fellow worker, based on their racial or sexual status. Do you really believe this will promote an air of racial, or sexual harmony in the workplace? I think not.

Al Qaeda Mocks President Kumbaya

Hey! Mind your own business. Mocking Obama's agenda is our job

An American who left the United States to join an Al Qaeda-linked group in Somalia is strongly condemning President Obama's efforts to seek "a new beginning" with the Muslim world, mocking Obama's "magic of charisma" and warning of more attacks against U.S. interests.

"Despite the fact that you have been ... forced [by Muslim fighters] to at least pretend to extend your hand in peace to the Muslims, we cannot and shall not extend our hands," said the man in the audiotape, identified by the Washington-based Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) as Abu Mansour al-Amriki. "Rather, we shall extend to you our swords, until you leave our lands."

The 20-minute audiotape, called "The Beginning of the End," was posted Thursday on several jihadist web sites as a direct response to Obama's much-publicized speech in Cairo on June 4, when he promised "a new beginning between the United States and Muslims around the world."

"Let this not come as a surprise to those who are mesmerized by Obama's speech in Cairo, our positions ... have not changed in the least," al-Amriki said, in the transcription provided by MEMRI. "If we study his words carefully, we can note very clearly that this new beginning is still heavily based upon American interests ... [Obama spoke] not because he loves the Muslims he lived with in Indonesia, as a boy, but rather, it is because the only way to defeat the Muslims is by distracting them with this temporary life."


As Obama runs around the world on his apology tours, as he tries to reach out to blood thirsty enemies - while simultaneously dissing our allies - it is quite apparent that he is wasting his time, he is being played, and he is turning American power back into the paper tiger version Bin Laden scoffed at back in the 90's. And these groups will still hate the United States for being the greatest nation ever, no matter how much Obama reaches out and apologises.

* Amount of cost attributed to crude oil

We just can't sustain this kind of import economy. This is just one of many countries the U.S. trades with at a huge deficit. When you take into account the fact that many of the countries we are trading with are only borderline friendly, we are being bleed dry.

Trillions of dollars are just leaving our economy every year. Well you say what do we have to show for our trade dollars? What we have is essentially the worlds largest garage full of v.c.r.'s, and that money is not coming back. It's obvious these countries have no incentive to trade fairly with us, you only need to look at the numbers.

It's time to get trade under control, and use some of that stimulus money to rebuild our Technical and Industrial sectors. This is a good time for more small busineses and less corporate hoarding. Stop blaming the war for the economy. We rebuilt from the depression while fighting the Korean, and Vietnam wars. The fact of the matter is we have allowed trade to snowball out of control, it has become a secondary humanitarian effort. Couple that with the fact that our government is doing everything short of prohibiting small businesses, and you've got a recipe for disaster.

Money has become so intangible Washington seems to have forgotten, printing money is useless if you have no way to funnel it to the populous. People have to have jobs and we can't all be CEO's. Somebody has to sweep up, all I'm sayin is let it be a proud American making a decent wage.

Bring the small factories back to America, and if you want to bitch about the pollution why don't you take a look at China. People are wearing masks on the street, but the liberals are happy to go on supporting this while crowing look how green we are.

Bring the jobs home, start drilling for some of that oil we're sitting on, and if a caribou gets displaced shoot that F%#@er and ship it off to me I'll eat it.

Sarah Palin resigns

Please excuse any typos as I am currently typing with one hand while I scream and pull out my hair with the other. Who the hell is going to stand up to the liberal juggernaut. Conservatives have been branded as hatemongers and radical extremists, maybe it is time we lived up to that moniker. I don't condone violence, but if the current trend of rule by intimidation continues i'm afraid the only way to save this country may be revolution. Republicans have tried playing the game fairly, but if we learned anything from Vietnam it's that you can't fight a conventional war against geurilla tactics. Sarah Palin can't wear a jacket with her husbands team logo on it, but Nancy Pelosi can call our most effective intelligence agency a bunch of liars. The Bush family was slammed for being on good terms with the Saudi royal family, yet when Obama bowed down before the Saudi king he was simply being respectful. When you call the liberals on these topics they quickly reply that these are trivial issues the important thing is Obamas policies. My point is that the Obama campaign was based on these types of trivial issues so I would expect him to at least attempt to rise above them. As far as the Obama policies, okay let's discuss how he is bankrupting the country at an unprecedented rate. Maybe we could discuss the Bush stimulus plan the Obama team criticized so vocally. Obama has already passed one stimulus bill and is gearing up for a second, the only difference between the Bush and Obama stimulus plans is that Bush gave our money back to us while Obama is doleing it out to local and state governments. Let's talk about where the stimulus money is going. Your tax dollars are going to fund important projects like blowing up beaver dams and building a country club in a town that has more cows than people.
If we cannot at least take back the Congress this election I'm afraid the America we have all known and loved these many years will be doomed to third world status.
