ARE YOU FEELING SAFER THAN YOU DID, SAY, JUST 100 DAYS AGO?



Just as Ronald Reagan asked at a time when we were all doing our best to crawl out from under the debacle that was the Jummy Carter presidency, "Are you better off now than you were four years ago," I would now like to ask all Americans, "Do you feel safer today than you did just a mere 100 days ago?"  Barry's anemic approach to our national defense is leaving this country completely exposed and vulnerable to the many dangers that are coming at us simultaneously and from so many directions.  We are rapidly being made to appear as nothing more than one huge target for every tinhorn, Third World despot with a chip on his shoulder and who is possession of what he thinks is the means to kill himself some Americans.  And now with Barry's decision to see it as much more advantageous to approach, what up to 100 days ago, was known as the "War on Terror" from a much more appeasement oriented and pacifist point of view, the typical Democrat position, you have got to be asking yourself, does the return to these failed policies of the past give you any comfort and leave you feeling any more safe.  Of course if you believe all the tripe and drivel being spewed by the media that it was in fact the policies of the Bush Administration that actually made America less safe, well then I suppose what "BO" is doing is much more appealing to you.  But if you're being honest with yourself, you've got to be wondering if these "new" policies being instituted by Barry are designed to actually protect Americans from attack, or, are they designed more to weaken our defenses culminating with the inevitable end result of a catastrophic attack on this country of truly frightening proportions.  Because by simply using the reasonable man theory what, in effect, should the priorities for our defensive policy be when drafting up an agenda regarding the best ways to combat, again,  what used to be referred to as the "War on Terror?"  Should our priorities be formulated around the premise that it is more important to develop effective and proven techniques that allow us to obtain crucial information as well as, if necessary, the preemptive use of overwhelming military force against these fanatical Muslim terrorists who want nothing more than to kills us?  Or, should our priorities be more French, or Democrat, in nature, that is hoping that through a unilateral surrender where we simply lay down our weapons we will convince those who hate us to simply cease their attacks on us and to go home happy?  Having made what can only be called a conscious decision, "BO" has exposed all of us in this country to an increased risk of attack through his reckless disregard for our safety, as well as a dangerous arrogance and a unique ignorance of the World in general not seen since our last Democrat president.  By choosing to expose proven and non-life threatening interrogation techniques utilized in the obtaining of valuable information that has saved the lives of countless Americans, he has now placed those very same lives in serious jeopardy.

Barry's inept concepts of how best to deal with these crazed terrorists, these practitioners of what is laughably referred to as a religion of "peace" are not only nonsensical and dangerous, they are naive and and have succeded in doing nothing more than to ecourage those who insist on fanning the flames of hatred for America that now threaten us on so many levels.  Unfortunately, and for reasons that I simply cannot comprehend, Barry and his team of misfits seem to be more than willing, almost eager, to expend a great deal of time and energy in an effort to sabotage as throughly as possible our abilities to effectively combat those very same terrorists who are expending an equal amount of energy to quite literally destroy our very way of life.  It is an effort that seems almost purposeful in its drive to take this country back to a 9/10 mentality and in the process the handing of complete victory to the terrorists no matter what the consequences to this country.  Such policies are the surest way back to when only one side was doing all the fighting, THE WRONG SIDE!  His insistance on returning to failed policies are nothing more than an obvious capitualtion to these rag-headed murderers of innocent people that can and will only whet their appetites for bigger, bolder, deadlier amd more widespread attacks.  "BO" now has us headed in the very wrong direction on this issue after making a rather dramatic U-turn away from policies that were proven to be effective, and the end result can only be one that weakens this country considerably.  And what really reveals what little significance Barry attaches to the threat we face from these Muslim nutjobs and betrays the callousness he feels toward those who lost loved one on 9/11, is the decision to buzz ground zero with Air Force 1 at 1000 feet.  Just how #@*$*@% stupid was that?

But it is not only on the terror front that "BO" is leaving this country potentially fatally exposed.  He has made it quite clear on any number of occasions that the safety and security of this nation is of secondary, even tertiary, importance to him while trying to make nice with a threatening China and a resurging Russia.  National defense is something that is extemely low on his list of priorities, far below things such as the nationalizing of the banks, the auto makers and soon even our healthcare.  He has made it a mission of his to drastically and purposely reduce defense spending in order to free up more money in his drive to take this country drastically to the left.  The budget cuts that are being proposed and not by any means meant as temporary measures to get us over some supposed fiscal bump in the road.  They are nothing more than an opening bid in what, if "BO" has his way, will be a U.S. military that will be very much smaller, packing a much smaller punch, and leaves this country virtually unable to defend itself in even a minor skirmish.  In this day and age with Russia and China growing closer, North Korea test-firing missiles and Iran growing closer to acquiring nuclear weapons, America can ill afford to be caught flat footed against any of these enemies.  There are definitely storm clouds gathering on the horizon and without the maintaining of a sufficient military in size and preparedness the very near future could in fact be very bleak indeed.  We have gotten to the point where we are now allowing the fact that our enemies are rapidly building up their militaries to go totally uchallenged.  And as our enemies grow stronger the president of our country continues to do his absolute best to completely erode our own military capabilities.  And for what?  So he can continue to concentrate on the ridiculous notions regarding the faux dangers that we now supposedly face that are much more important, like man made global warming and the pig flu?

With "BO" now calling the shots, it is no longer a question of if we will be attacked again, it has now become a question of when and how bad will it be.  Let's be honest here, you simply cannot dismantle the very means we have to defend ourselves, the methods and tools that have been proven to be effective in the preventing of further attacks and not expect something bad to happen.  Those trying to kill us will only see that as the weakness that it is and they will undoubtedly be encouraged to take full advantage of that perceived weakness on our part.  And when that does happen I will be looking to personally place the blame for all the deaths that may result, on every single one of those 69 million morons who voted for the Socialist bonehead that we now have occupying the White House.  Not wanting to sound to melodramatic here but all we have really accomplished by electing this man, any historical significance aside, is to put a terrible curse on the heads of our children that will last for generations.  All in the name of CHANGE!

AMERICA HATERS JUST LOVE TO BLAME IT AS DANGEROUS POLLUTER

To hear "BO" and the Democrats go on and on about Climate Change and pollution you would have to come to the conclusion that nobody, and I do mean nobody, but America pollutes.  Well, as most of us out there who are not in constant search for new reasons to hate this country or on a mission to destoy it, know is that, comparatively speaking, we are probably one the the least polluters.  What follows is a brief list of those really responsible and in whose direction a little more scrutiny should be aimed. 

The Top 10 most polluted places for 2006, in alphabetical order by country:

Linfen, China, where residents say they literally choke on coal dust in the evenings, exemplifies many Chinese cities;

Haina, Dominican Republic, has severe lead contamination because of lead battery recycling, a problem common throughout poorer countries

Ranipet, India, where leather tanning wastes contaminate groundwater with hexavalent chromium, made famous by Erin Brockovich, resulting in water that apparently stings like an insect bite

Mailuu-Suu, Kyrgyzstan, home to nearly 2 million cubic meters of radioactive mining waste that threatens the entire Ferghana valley, one of the most fertile and densely populated areas in Central Asia that also experiences high rates of seismic activity;

La Oroya, Peru, where the metal processing plant, owned by the Missouri-based Doe Run Corporation, leads to toxic emissions of lead;

Dzerzinsk, Russia, one of the country's principal chemical weapons manufacturing sites until the end of the Cold War

Norilsk, Russia, which houses the world's largest heavy metals smelting complex;

Rudnaya Pristan, Russia, where lead contamination resulted in child blood lead levels eight to 20 times maximum allowable U.S. levels;

Chernobyl, Ukraine, infamous site of a nuclear meltdown 20 years ago; and

Kabwe, Zambia, where child blood levels of lead are five to 10 times the allowable EPA maximum
 
Now, some of these countries while they may be vast is size and population are essentially nothing more than Third World countries on a grand scale and any pollution this country may, in effect, emit pales in comparison to what is thrown into the air by these semi-industrialized countries.  They are primitive, industrially speaking, being for any number of reasons stuck in the 19th or early 20th centuries.  More time and energy should be focused on bringing them UP to our level instead of trying to drag America Down to theirs!

THINGS ARE GOING UP IN SMOKE!!

 The side of New Hope Baptist Church is engulfed in ...

I have been told on more than one occasion that even someone completely insane will run out of a burning building.  Well folks, look around you, what we currently have here in the form of our country, is essentially a building that is being slowly and very completely, engulfed in flames and that is quite literally burning down around us.  And, it would appear that a very large number of us are perfectly content to go up with it instead of at least making some sort of an attempt at putting out the flames.  And what's worse, it is those whom we should be able to look to and to rely on the most to bring the blaze under control and to eventually extinguish it, that are in fact the very ones doing nothing more than to very enthusiastically throw gasoline on it.  It is because of the usual suspects with names like Obama, Reid, Pelosi, Frank, Dodd, Clinton and Geithner, to name just a few that this whole thing got started in the first place and it those very same people who now are all running around with matches at the ready should the flames begin to subside.

In only a very short 100 days Barry "Almighty" with the aid of his minions in a Democrat controlled Congress as well as all those in the media, has accomplished:

* Arbitrarily decided to close the Guantanamo Bay detention facility, with no follow on plan in place
* The throwing of extravagant soirees serving $100/pound roast beef while at the same time preaching to the rest of us how we must all learn to make the necessary sacrifices
* Embarrassed this country by bowing to the King of Saudi Arabia
* Continues to apologize for America, the most generous and freedom loving country on the planet, at every opportunity and to anyone who will listen
* Discontinued proven enhanced interrogation techniques used against Muslim terrorists that have yielded life saving information, calling them torture
* Has made a bad economy much, much worse
* Has brought 5, count em, 5 tax cheats into his administration
* Continues to foment class warfare as well as class hatred in the name of increasing his political power
* Refuses to call the "War on Terror" just that
* Sits back and quietly, almost happily, listens as Latin American tin horn despots slander his country, and then offers no reposnse whatsoever
* Slaps the Brits by returning a bust of Winston Churchill that was given as a gift to this country after 9/11
* Permitted his tax cheat of a Treasury Secretary to loudly proclaim that it is America hat is solely responsible for the World financial crisis

This is obviously an incomplete list containing just a few of the items from a long list of many that have been accomplished in such a very short time by the stellar individual who now occupies the Oval Office.  Things that are putting this country on the fast track to not only financial ruin but also to a place where our enemies will no longer fear us and will only grow more brazen in their willingness to attack us in an effort to kill as many of us as they can.  Most recently we have been witness to even more hypocrisy coming from our "Supreme Leader" by his saying that while he does not think it appropriate to prosecute those who actually utilized certain enhanced interrogation techniques against Muslims "terrorists", it may now be appropriate to prosecute those whom were relied upon to formulate those very same interrogation techniques.  When added to his seriously misguided decision to now begin to refer to the "War on Terror" as being an Overseas Contingency Operation he has demonstrated a weakness that has the distinct possibility of being potentially lethal to our country, creating a perception of weakness the most likely result of which is destined to be the creation of a deadly scenario culminating with the death of countless Americans.  It would seem that we now have a president who is willing to expend a great deal of energy in an effort to sabotage our abilities to combat those very same terrorists that are trying to destroy our very way of life in this country.  It is an effort that seems almost purposeful in its drive toward the handing of complete victory to the terrorists through a reckless, and some would say idiotic, release of not only classified memos but those soon to be released photographs as well.  His inept policies are in effect igniting the flames that now threaten to become an inferno that will endanger this country on so many levels.  And with Barry and his moron of a Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, going on their global contrition tour and apologizing for the so called reckless behavior of the America of the recent past, they continue to serve as nothing more than an embarrassment to this country.  Apologizing for everything from America being the cause of Global Warming to being responsible for World poverty as well as for everything in between, these incompetent individuals accomplish nothing more than to demonstrate a very dangerous weakness on the part of America.  It is a disastrous way to conduct a responsible foreign policy.  And with a domestic policy that consists of nothing more than an irresponsible and out of control spending binge which will prove to be not only ineffectual but in all reality will serve as nothing more than a fiasco that will prove to be a weight around our necks for generations to come for as far into the future as the eye can see, Barry clearly creates an untenable and very precarious situation.  For Barry to have accomplished so much in so short a period of time is truly frightening.

Look around people this building we call America is on fire and if it goes up it's going to take everybody with it, not just those of us who chose not to vote for Barry, but all the boobs who did as well!

WHO IS THIS MAN AND CAN WE TRUST HIM AS OUR PRESIDENT?



                                    COMRADES IN ARMS

It is a question that has been asked before at a time that now seems so long ago, but it is one that needs to asked again today.  In less than one hundred days since he took his oath of office, Barry "Almighty", our "Surpreme Leader", has literally wasted no time in taking numerous steps that continue to lay bare the methods used by this country to protect itself from future attacks by Muslim extremists, not to be confused with those of us right-wingers.  Steps he has taken that will, and quite possibly already have, with little or no concern shown by our president, endanger the lives of many innocent Americans.  By blatantly ignoring his primary Constitutional responsibility, that being the protecting the lives of his countrymen, he has chose instead to place the lives of those he has sworn to protect directly into harms way through his careless, reckless an, some would argue, his idiotic behavior regarding our current "Overseas Contingency Operation."  And the most recent example of his misplaced loyalties is the release this past Thursday of four TOP SECRET memos, all of which provide indepth details about enhanced interrogation techniques utilized during the Bush Administration.  Now it goes without saying that this traitorous action was enthusiastically welcomed by the many anti-American civil liberties group around the globe, no surprise there.  This incredible reckless decision has been condemned by some current and many former intelligence officials as severely endangering this country.
 
Barry said in a statement issued, after of course he had left the country for a four day hate America trip to Mexico and then on to a Latin America "We all hate the United States" Summit, that the disclosure was required to protect the U.S. from false accusations about its actions in the past.  "Exceptional circumstances surround these memos and require their release," Barry said.  "Withholding these memos would only serve to deny facts that have been in the public domain for some time.  This could contribute to an inaccurate accounting of the past and fuel erroneous and inflammatory assumptions about action taken by the United States."  Have you ever heard such tripe and drivel in your life?  Anyway, the 126 page document release of which Barry spoke included massive amounts of details never before divulged by our government, including specifics regarding how interrogation techniques were perfromed and the intended effects in detainees.  One previously undisclosed detail included the revelation that interrogators at the Guantanamo Bay detention faciity in Cuba placed insects into a "confinement box" that held al Qaeda operative Abu Zubaydah, knowing that the suspected terrorist appeared to have a fear of insects.  Sounds like torture to me, kind of makes the chopping off of people's heads seem pretty tame in comparison.
 
In literally dozens of pages, the methods approved by the Bush Administration for extracting information from senior al Qaeda operatives are spelled out in careful detail; from keeping detainees awake for up to 11 straight days, to placing them in a dark, cramped box, to putting those dreaded insrects into the box to exploit thier fears.  And then, and you had to know this was going to happen, within minutes of the release of these memos, that doofus Pat Leahy, Democrat from Vermont, chief among the America haters as well as being the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said the memos illustrated the need for his proposed independent "Commission of Inquiry," which would offer immunity in return for candid testimony.  Now, it would seem to me that if any Commission of Inquiry is in fact needed it is needed to find out exactly why it is that Barry "Almighty" and the Democrats appear to be so absolutely driven to assist the terrorists in every conceivable way and who want to do nothing more than to kill as many Americans as they can.  I would think that such behavior would most definitely rise to the level of a High Crime and Misdemeanor having been committed by our president.  The nonsense continued as Barry condemned what he called a "dark and painful chapter in our history," and said the interrogation techniques would never be used again.  But he also repeated his opposition to a lengthy inquiry into the past, saying that "nothing will be gained by spending our time and energy laying blame for the past."  What a minute, I thought everything was Bush's fault.
 
Barry continues to exhibit on almost a daily basis a reckless disregard for what it is going to take to keep this country safe.  He appears to be much more interested in all the pomp and circumstance of his office than in the actual completion of his duties as stated in his oath of office.  Seemig to take great pleasure instead in globetrotting in Air Force 1, at taxpayer expense, and with teleprompter coming along for the ride to assist him is his bashing of America, or apologizing for all the ill inflcted on the World by America while promising to hand out more of our money.  The bottom line here is that this man is not merely inexperienced or reckless, his is a fool, a very dangerous fool.  A fool who we elected and with the consequences of that action that may well prove to be far more dangerous than any of us could have possibly imagined.

SO, WE ARE NOW ALL NOTHING MORE THAN RIGHT-WING EXTREMISTS


































       The President of the United States......Pretty sad!

***Barry
"O"mighty defines Rightwing extremism in the United States as something that can be broadly divided into those groups, movements, and adherents that are primarily hate-oriented (based on hatred of particular religious, racial, or ethnic groups), and those that are mainly antigovernment, rejecting federal authority in favor of state or local authority, or rejecting government authority entirely.  It may include groups and individuals that are dedicated to a single issue, such as opposition to abortion or immigration.***

I may be getting to the table a little late on this one, but that's only because I wanted to really see what it was that this thing said and I did not want to go off half cocked.  So, after reading it through, it would now appear that "BO" is of the opinion that now is the right time to employ a new tactic, at least for him, against all those among us who would have the "audacity" to disagree with what it is that his agenda represents for the future of America.  The recently released DHS report is, in all actuality, nothing more than a thinly veiled attempt at pure intimidation, and not only of those of us who openly claim to be conservatives, but also of those who may be considering the joining of our ranks.  It is a tactic copied from his Socialist heroes of the past who successfully used it to not only silence the voices of dissent but to maintain their iron grip on the power they held over the people.  He seems to be of the opinion that by labeling individuals who just happen to be Pro-life and those who are strongly supportive of the Second Amendment as nothing more that right-wing extremists completely out of the mainstream he will eventually be able to silence them, allowing him to move forward unimpeded with his dangerous plans for this country.  I have stated here before, and unashamedly so, that I am not one of those who favor "BO" succeeding in the accomplishment of his very leftist agenda.  But, at the risk of being called an extremist, I think that simply hoping for his failure is not going to be enough.  I think that certain, more aggressive measures must now be employed to prevent, or at least to severely limit, any chance whatsoever of his achieving any degree of success in his quest to trample on the individual freedoms and rights enjoyed by all who live in this country.  He has targeted us and the time has now come for we the people to target him, politically speaking of course, and his Socialist policies.  Let us not forget that 58 million people did not vote for him or his brand of "change" and we should not now allow our voices to be squelched.
 
In reading this new DHS report it would seem that, at least according to "BO", being a Conservative now equates to being nothing more than your basic, everyday, run of the mill, right wing extremist and a nut.  Those of us on the Right side of the political spectrum are no longer permitted to criticize those things with which we disagree without then risking being labeled as some kind of crazed extremist, or worse, a domestic terrorist.  We are basically being instructed that we must now learn to know our proper place in the World and to do nothing more than to shut up, sit down and speak only when spoken to while "BO" goes about the business of not only attempting to discredit our ideals but us personally as conservatives.  Using Barry's criteria, our Founding Fathers would have been classified as extremists, while those that Barry and his elitist friends admire, Marx, Lenin, Stalin and Castro, among others are not.  So the way I see it, if I am in fact a right-wing extremist, then I'm in pretty good company.  Barry has tipped everything upside down.  This whole "report" is nothing more than a sick and twisted attempt to paint those of us who refuse to swallow or go along with his liberal mantra as nothing more than bigots who are prone to using violence as our primary means of retaliation.  It basically claims that it is only a matter of time before we all suddenly go berserk, going postal so to speak, on anyone within range.
 
For anyone who has not had the opportunity to read this piece of political pornography in its entirety, I strongly suggest that you do so.  It crams a significant amount of poop into just nine pages and really is quite a remarkable piece of fiction.  It has to be one of the most incredible documents ever created by our government written for the specific purpose to do nothing more than to essentially slander an entire group of citizens who choose to oppose those views held by a current presidential administration.  Just what is it that "BO" is attempting to accomplish here, is this all part of his master plan to create his new "foundation" for our country, a country where differing opinions are no longer encouraged but instead are now something not to be even tolerated?  In all honesty there can be only one purpose for a piece of drivel of this magnitude and it is to stifle any and all criticism of Barry the Exalted One.  What he is effectively saying here is, "Free speech, we don't need no stinkin free speech", because you see. that would only serve as that much needed speed bump serving as that critical impediment for slowing Barry's headlong rush toward his own particular brand of Liberal Fascism.  It is just another means to silence any and all dissent regarding the policies that Barry is working so hard to enact in his drive to fundamentally alter the political system of government in this country and to finally, once and for all, shred our Constitution.
 
As I read this thing it became apparent, and very quickly, what the intent behind this completely dishonest document truly is, but what it actually sounds like is a much more accurate description of those very groups that were headed by guys like Barry's best buddy, Bill Ayers.  And curiously enough, if when reading this you replace every occurrence of "rightwing" with "leftwing" the end result becomes a much more accurate report.  In its present form, this "report" actually amounts to nothing more than a verbose piece of poisonous propaganda.  The Department of Homeland Security has, at the behest of our new president, taken it upon itself to now begin to warn law enforcement agencies that recent news events are helping "rightwing extremist groups" recruit new members and could, could, lead to potential violence and also warns about then possible recruitment, and of course the radicalization, of our returning veterans.  So now it has become official Barry policy to slander our brave soldiers returning home from battle by painting them as being more dangerous than the Islamic terrorists they have been fighting and killing to protect America.  This perverted piece of laughable fiction goes on to say that this latest assessment by the DHS Office of Intelligence and Analysis has found no specific information that domestic right-wing terrorists are currently planning acts of violence, but claims the right-wing extemsits may be gaining new recruits by playing on fears about the recession and the election of the first African-American president.  DHS calls them "unique drivers of right-wing radicalization and recruitment."  And the outrageous claims continue, "Right-wing extemists have capitalized on the election of the first African-American president, and are focusing their efforts to recuit new members, mobilize existing supporters and broaden their scope and appeal through propaganda, but the have not yet turned to attack planning," the assessment reads.  Followed by claims that, "The current economic and political climate has some similarities to the 1990s when right-wing extremism experienced a resurgence fueled largely by an economic recession, criticism about the outsourcing of jobs and the perceived threat to U.S. power and sovereignty by other foreign powers."  The report reaches a new low even for Barry when it suggests that returning vetereans are attractive recuits for right-wing groups looking for "combat skills and experience" so as to boost their "violent capabilities."  The slander continues as it describes how plans for new restrictions on gun ownership and the difficulty of veterans to reintegrate into their communities "could lead to the potential emergence of terrorist groups or lone wolf extremists capable of carrying ourt violent attacks."  Adding, "Proposed imposition of firearms restrictions and weapons bans likely would attract new members into the ranks of right-wing extremsit groups...The high volume of purchases and stockpiling of weapons and ammunition by right-wing extremsits in anticipation of restrictions and bans in some parts of the country continue to be a primary concern to law enforcement," the report says.
 
Then as a highlight of this piece of trash, it attempts to make the connection bewteen the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing and conservatives.  You know, it's funny that Barry, and the Democrats in general, can ridicule any and all claims and simply dismiss out of hand that there was a connection between Saddam Hussein and al Qaeda but they can easily connect dots that do not exist to make the connection between a nut like Timothy McVeigh and conservatives.  He is hoping that by stressing this "connection" often enough and loud enough he will discourage a sufficient number of people from from joining our cause to stop "his" radicalization of America.  DHS spokeswoman, Sara Kuban, said that the April 7 assessment is one in an ongoing series published by DHS "to facilitate a greater understanding of radicalization in the United States."  I guess by radicalization this brainless bimbo means all those of us out here who refuse to be lead over the cliff by Barry "O", not that which is being perpetrated by "BO" himself.
 
What is happening to America today, and are we going to allow ourselves to be intimidated into keeping silent?  Are we going to allow ourselves to be maneuvered into going from the greatest generation to the generation of sniveling wimps with our silence either being forced through intimidation or purchased for the price of the next government bailout.  Leading us in this downward spiral with all their rhetoric about "change" is the party of the little guy, the Democrats who at the same time are doing their best to limit the free speech of those who disagree with them by any means at their disposal.  But just what kind of change are they advocating?  it would appear that their idea of change is to paint any and all conservatives as extremeists while they do their best to literally hand victory to the real terrorists, cripple our health care system, raise taxes and spend us into oblivion as just a few examples of their superior liberal thinking.  But, since they regard most of us common folk as being nothiong more than ignorant, dangerous domestic terrorists and not able to be trusted to do the right thing, the country needs them to protect it from the likes of us.  Democrats continue to claim to be the moral authority for America with this half-baked report being just one more, and the most recent, example.  But when one looks at the stalwart men of character who are the icons of today's Democrat Party you just have to wonder.  You have an accused rapist, a man whom you could say got away with murder and a known Klansman.  Can a party lead by such corrupt and dishonest men as these truly have America's best interest at heart?  Especially when you add "BO" into the mix.  Who are the real extremists here?  I guess it was all those folks at all those Tea Parties!     
 
It's all too easy for me to proclaim why eactly it is that I am a proud Conservative and to make all aware that I will not be intimidated by Barry's incendiary rhetoric.  But that is not going to encourage others to join us, to make our numbers swell to the point they need to be for us to take our country back.  We need many more to join our ranks and if Barry can succeed in making it appear that by their doing so they are opening themselves up to becoming the recipients of a continuous stream of slanderous innuendo and name calling, it may come to appear to many that it is simply not woth it.

EVEN A BLIND SQUIRREL FINDS A NUT EVERY NOW AND AGAIN


Please excuse me if I’m not one who is quite so quick to jump on the old "BO" bandwagon regarding his "handling" of the recent pirate scenario. While I suppose I may be risking being compared to the Democrats in their bashing of Bush and will be accused of bashing "BO" just for the sake of bashing him I beg to differ with those who may be of that opinion. I’ve really given this a lot of thought because I did not want to sound like I am being unfair, coming across as simply ignoring a perceived "BO" accomplishment. If I can be honest here, I did not see anything exceptionally presidential in any of "BO" actions leading up to his finally making the decision to take these thugs out to get our American Captain back. I think the action should have come swifter and should have made much more of a statement to those who might be considering a similar action in the future. So while some are so very busy falling all over themselves and trying to be the loudest and most eager to heap praise onto his relatively lackluster behavior, I refuse to join the crowd. For crying out loud, you could train a monkey to do all that "BO" actually did to bring this drama to a close. I credit our men in the military who were finally given the green light to take the action that needed to be taken.

Let’s be honest here, there has never been a more self-centered, egotistical boob sitting in the Oval Office than "BO". He is a hypocrite of the highest order and everything, EVERYTHING, is secondary to how it effects "BO" and how it can be manipulated to increase his supposed stature. To think that he gave a rat’s behind about whether this captain survived this ordeal or not is simply not accurate or realistic. Now while he may not be another BJ Clinton who would have been busy still taking polls, BO on the other hand just does come across as being just a little less than sincere. To "BO" it’s always Americans who are to be considered expendable in any given situation, because it’s important for America not to appear to be bullying some poor, unfortunate from some third world country. Better that the Americans be considered collateral damage than "terrorists or pirates."

If you listen to some on our side I guess I’m just supposed to be so thrilled with the fact that "BO" actually decided to do anything. But I think it’s a stretch to call his action decisive. And I think it is a fair question to ask what it was that may have motivated him to take the action that he finally did. As always, it’s much more about "BO" than, even as in this case, the life of the man hanging in the balance. I do not trust this man to ever do the right thing because there has to be some benefit for him no matter what the consequence to others. I guess on the bright side this was his Jimmy Carter moment and he did perform better than his predecessor, for that I suppose we should be thankful.

AMERICA AS SEEN THROUGH THE EYES OF BARRY "ALMIGHTY" (AND HIS FRIENDS)

Cartoons By Michael Ramirez
Over the course of our history the American people have had the misfortune, on more than one occasion, to have elected themselves some very Liberal presidents. In fact, in only the last 45 years we’ve elected Johnson, Carter and Clinton, and I suppose it could be argued that even Nixon was rather Liberal with his government expanding agenda. But it was not until 2008 that we would finally come to elect a man who was not only the most liberal member of the Senate as our president, but in the process, a man who seems to possess a very deep and thorough loathing, even a hatred, of our country. Sadly, we have quite a unique scenario playing out here in America today, with us having actually elected a president who continues to exhibit zero respect for the very country that he now represents to the World. As well, he sees no redeeming value whatsoever in any of what this country has provided to so many people across the globe. He is a man who, one could safely argue is determined, as if possessed by some bizarre and lofty sense of superiority, to dismantle all that this country has stood for from that very first day that we became an independent nation and that it continues to stand for to this very day.

At a time when the World seems to be moving in an ever increasingly dangerous direction and when the leadership of America is crucial in the steering of it through what amounts to a minefield, our president insists on taking actions that essentially increase the risks we face here at home. He seems to be busying himself with increasing our vulnerability from a growing number of dangerous regimes and adversaries. It is almost as if he is on some deadly mission to actually encourage all those who would wish to do us harm. I mean look around, we’re now being confronted with a frizzy haired lunatic in North Korea busy testing missiles over the Pacific and an ugly little dwarf in Iran creeping ever closer to the possessing of nuclear weapons. Weapons that will allow him to complete his dream of committing another Holocaust by wiping Israel off the map. And now is the time that "BO", supported by his merry band of pathetically pacifist and LIBERAL Democrats, has decided is the right time to slash defense spending by 20% and severely reducing the funding needed for a vital missile defense system. He also has Russia and China openly salivating at the prospect of an unbelievable opportunity being presented to them where "BO" has outlined his policy consisting of pretty much a unilateral reduction in weaponry, promising not to weaponize space and to limit research and development of new and crucial weapon systems.

Here is a man, the "Leader" of the free world, who repeatedly goes out of his way to consistently stress only what he sees as the imperfections, the blemishes, of America and enthusiastically belittles what has come to be recognized as true American exceptionalism. And he continues to betray his utter contempt for all things American to gain favor with whom exactly. What "BO" does is to kowtow, cave and buckle under to the petty Europeans wannabes who through their own actions, or inaction, have essentially made themselves completely irrelevant regarding any and all things important in World events. All they can continue to do is to continually prostrate themselves before the very Islamic radicals that wish them so much harm and now it would appear that they have a like minded individual in the White House willing to exhibit that very same gutless behavior that they seem to so enthusiastically relish. And so it is that today they welcome as president of the United States one who they recognize as one of them. A fellow Socialist, a believer in a new world order, Transnationalism and every other screwy, nut-job, leftwing theory. What they fail to take notice of however, is that there is today, an ongoing conflict in the World in which to the victor will go the spoils, i.e, the controlling of civilization as we know it, while the loser will be forced into a permanent role of total and complete subservience. I’m not sure about anybody else, but I’m not crazy about being forced to live under Muslim law, like so many in Britain have already decided to do.

Despite what "BO" may think, America does not need to be apologized for in way, shape, manner or form by someone the likes of such a man as our president. America is a country that is singularly responsible for the literally millions of people who can today enjoy something as basic as being able to live in freedom. We have come to the rescue of Europe not once but twice in two World Wars and at great personal loss asking for nothing in return but enough land to bury our dead. And these ungrateful, lazy and arrogant "Europeans" are nothing if not incredibly jealous of all they are not and will never be, when compared to Americans. Looking back at the time when it was America that came riding to their rescue, maybe we would have better served ourselves had we let these weak and spineless people simply fend for themselves and bear the pain of what it was that they had brought upon themselves.

"BO"s ongoing lame attempts to continue to blame Bush for all his problems is getting more than just a little tiresome as he continues to reveal himself to be a man of so very little character, as well as shallow and insignificant. Will this guy ever take responsibility for anything, or is this the crap we’re going to be forced to listen to for the four years? You just want to say, "Hey, "BO", the campaign is over!" As he travels through Europe he does what he does best. Instead of reminding everyone present that it was because of America that Europe is enjoying her freedom today and not languishing under a dictatorship he simply takes the opportunity to bash his own country and his fellow countrymen as being overindulgent, selfish and greedy. "Over the last seven, eight years," he said, "a lot of tensions have developed between the United States and Europe…There have been times where America has shown arrogance and been dismissive, even derisive" toward Europe. "In Europe, there is an anti-Americanism that is at once casual but can also be where Europeans chose to blame America for much of what's bad," Obama said. And when speaking to Turkish Parliament Monday, President Obama goes a step farther by acknowledging "differences about whether to go to war" in Iraq. "I know there have been difficulties these last few years (the Bush years). I know that the trust that binds the United States and Turkey has been strained, and I know that strain is shared in many places where the Muslim faith is practiced. So let me say this as clearly as I can: The United States is not, and will never be, at war with Islam." I guess that means that under Bush we were at war with Islam. Then at a press conference in Turkey, President Obama casually rebuked the fact that the United States is a Judeo-Christian nation. "One of the great strengths of the United States," the President said, "is ... we have a very large Christian population -- we do not consider ourselves a Christian nation or a Jewish nation or a Muslim nation. We consider ourselves a nation of citizens who are bound by ideals and a set of values." Say what? The Founding Father have got to be spinning in the graves!

While on this his most recent jaunt to Europe and his first as president, "BO" pledged to repair the damaged relations with Europe. In his opening remarks, he underscored European and American ties and appeared intent on improving the U.S. image abroad, which of course had suffered badly under George W. Bush. "I've come to Europe this week to renew our partnership," Obama said, bluntly claiming that the relationship between the United States and Europe had gone adrift. According to "BO" America is nothing more than arrogant, self-serving nation who is busy stealing resources from the rest of the world all to support its lavish and wasteful lifestyle like no one else. We continue to consume a majority of the World’s resources while providing absolutely nothing in return. Poverty and inequality around the globe, no matter where it is to be found is all the fault of America. "BO" is in lock step with his fellow Socialists in Europe with all their rhetoric designed to do nothing more than to cut America down to size.  America is, at least at the present time, the World’s lone superpower, therefore we must be considered nothing more than the bully at the beach who is going around kicking sand in everyone’s face, when it is just the opposite that is true. America is the defender of freedom and all freedom loving people wherever they can be found.

Just one last, quick thought here. "BO" is far from being alone, especially in the Democrat Party, regarding his utter disdain not only for America and Capitalism, but for everything America stands for. Witness the recent junket embarked upon by the "Communist Black Caucus" to Cuba to kiss the ring of their favorite hero, Fidel Castro. This man who is nothing more than a gutless dictator who for the last 50 years has maintained a iron grip over his 766 mile by 53 mile "paradise" and its 11 million captives.  His major accomplishment, the overseeing of what amounts to nothing more than one large penal colony just 90 miles from our shores while continuing to remain the darling of the left in this country. This is the man that these blatant hypocrites choose to heap praise on as they rant that if only America were to more closely emulate Cuba and their hero, Americans would be so much better off than they are today, suffering as they are under the yoke of Capitalism. Try as they might to make their hero into something he obviously is not, in reality all these fools managed to accomplish was to reveal themselves as nothing more than America haters of the highest degree. By making comments such as, "Former President Fidel Castro is very engaging, very energetic," as did caucus Chairwoman Barbara Lee, also a Democrat from California and "Our conclusion is, given the new direction in our foreign policy, that it’s time to look at a new direction in our policy toward Cuba" these people reveal their true colors. Another stupid statement was, "It was almost like listening to an old friend," added by Rep. Bobby Rush (D-Il.), saying also that he found Castro’s home to be modest and Castro’s wife to be particularly hospitable. The hoped for end result of all this ridiculous drivel is nothing more than an effort to legitimize a common thug, and his despicable behavior toward his own people. How many Cubans have been murdered at the hands of this common thug and how many have been locked away and still remain in his prisons for doing nothing more than to speak out for freedom. And yet, AND YET, these ignorant buffoons have the gall to praise him as a hero, as their hero, and as the ultimate survivor against that lone imperialist nation, THE UNITED STATES. When I first heard what these idiots had to say I felt the urge to puke! They and all their friends, "BO" included, make me sick!  And for all those of you continue to support these America haters, I feel nothing but contempt.  Because in order to support these ignorant malcontents you too must also hate America.

WHAT WAS THE "WAR ON TERROR" IS NOW AN OVERSEAS CONTINGENCY OPERATION

Contrary to what "BO" and Hillary may think, we do in fact have being perpetrated against America today, a war. A war that has been ongoing and without any serious retaliation, except at the hands of Republican presidents, for decades and originating from one particular area on our globe. Furthermore, it is a war essentially created through the shear ineptitude and idiocy of a particular Democrat president whose willful inaction regarding a long standing ally of America and the effectively ushering in of the founder of the same Islamic Revolution that we’re facing today. This action alone resulted in the bringing about of a crisis that amounted to being the first shot fired in this continuing war. So it was then that this very same Democrat President essentially assisted in the lighting of the fuse igniting this war we are being forced to fight todayand must win. Compounding that initial ineptitude and unbelievable ignorance, there followed yet another boob of the same political persuasion whose inaction did nothing but exacerbate the situation, causing a needless loss of innocent lives. Culminating this outrageous chain of events and continuing a Democrat tradition of a willful disregard of a president's primary duty to protect the citizens of this country, we have today yet another Democrat President who now chooses to dictate that there is now no actual "War on Terror" that what in fact we now have is nothing more than a "Overseas Contingency Operation."  What he is effectively doing is nothing short of raising the white flag of surrender.  Now doesn’t that just give you a warm fuzzy feeling all over?

Now, the point of origin for this war, or this Overseas Contingency Operation, of which I speak, is a specific area of the World that since it came into being has, thus far at least, created not one invention or made one discovery in science nor made one contribution to medicine or philosophy. Among this group of gifted people, these heirs to one of the World’s civilizations, hardly a single individual who springs forth from this hotbed of violence in the World, has earned any kind of international reputation except to be as a beneficiary of "his" country’s politics or his country’s oil extraction. Or, as a world renown leader of a terrorist organization.  Those residing in this particular area of our World are simply unable to accept the fact that Westernization and not a return to the 7th Century is the only way out of their continual failure, backwardness and humiliation and and can assist them with their inability to at least make some progress toward entrance into the 21st century. Unfortunately, what they see instead, at least those in power, is Westernization, especially the "Great Satan", as the root cause of all their problems, to the degree that it must be destroyed so that they can then resurrect their World as it existed in their beloved Seventh Century. Dare we consider the fact that had they not been provided with the gift of oil, they may have had the initiative to progress just a little farther than the point in time in which they seem to stuck.

Again, as "BO" and Hillary now refuse to call what it is in fact that this country is involved in as a War on Terror, the evidence available that it can be identified as nothing else than a war is basically irrefutable. Yet they now advocate returning to a philosophy of dealing with these mindless terrorists that has been proven time and again over the course of 30 years to be completely ineffective. We are engaged in a battle, a battle that we quite simply cannot afford to lose. Returning to the failed policies of the past does nothing but to help ensure victory for those who are currently trying to kill us. So, the question remains, do "BO" and the Democrats want us to in fact prevail in this battle for our very survival? As that old saying goes, "Actions speak louder than words", and the actions of "BO" and the Democrats speak volumes. What follows is a very interesting timeline that shows in stark contrast American responses to terrorist acts when there is a Republican in the White House compared to when there is a Democrat residing there:

September 1978: The Islamic Revolution begins in the Iranian city of Qom.

American response: Nothing

December 1978: President Jimmy Carter states America will not get directly involved to support the Shah of Iran, an American ally.

American response: Like Jimmy said, Nothing

January 16, 1979: The Shah leaves, never to return. The new revolutionary leader Ayatollah Khomeni denounces America as the "Great Satan".

American response: Nothing

November 4, 1979: Iranian "students" take sixty-six hostages at the U.S. embassy in Tehran, holding most of them for 444 days.

American response: Nothing

November 1980: Ronald Reagan elected president.

January 20, 1981: Reagan inaugurated, hostages released.

American response: None needed

October 23, 1983: Iran’s newly formed terrorist organization Hezbollah kills 230 U.S. Marines in Beirut, Lebanon.

April 5, 1986: Libyan terrorists bomb a Berlin disco, killing one U.S. soldier and injuring fifty.

American response: Reagan bombs dictator Mohammar Qaddafi’s home in retaliation.

November 1988: George H.W. Bush is elected.

August 1, 1990: Iraq invades Kuwait

American response: President Bush, say that the invasion will not stand. Vows removal of Iraqi forces. Bush organizes a UN coalition and launches Operation Desert Storm to reverse the aggression.

November 1992: Bill Clinton elected president and a darkness falls over the country.

February 26, 1993: Islamic terrorists bomb the World Trade Center.

American response: Nothing

October 3, 1993: Islamic terrorists shoot down a U.S. helicopter over Mogadishu, Somalia, killing

eighteen U.S. soldiers.

American response: Nothing

June 25, 1996: Iranian-backed terrorists bomb the Khobar Towers complex in Saudi Arabia, killing 19 U.S. servicemen and injuring 372 other people.

American response: Nothing

August 7, 1998: Al-Qaeda bombs U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, killing 224 and injuring thousands.

American response: Nothing

October 31, 1998: Clinton signs "Iraq Liberation Act" calling for regime change by force.

American response: A joke

December 1998: Clinton fires four hundred cruise missiles into Iraq during "Operation Desert Fox"

American response: Another joke

October 12, 2000: Al-Qaeda terrorists bomb the U.S.S. Cole in the port of Aden, Yemen, killing seventeen U.S. sailors.

American response: Nothing

November 2000: George W. Bush elected president

September 11, 2001: Al-Qaeda attacks the Twin Towers and the Pentagon killing nearly three thousand Americans.

American response: U.S. forces invade Afghanistan to topple the Taliban regime.

January 2009: Barry Almighty sworn in as President, swearing to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America

The War on Terror is proclaimed to be at an end, replaced by an "Overseas Contingency Operation"

 

Does anyone besides me see any kind of a trend developing here? Looking back at the incompetent boobs that were then Presidents Carter and Clinton, we now find ourselves with yet another incompetent president assisted by a just as incompetent and inept Secretary of State doing their absolute best to perpetuate those very same failed Democrat policies of the past. If it had not been for the ineptitude of the Carter/Clinton dynamic duo, I think it is fairly safe to say that 9/11 may in all likelihood never have taken place. And we are now with "BO" doing his presidential best to create just such an environment making it possible for yet another attack on this country. It should by now be obvious even to your average "BO" supporting moron that the policies of appeasement and pacifism do not put the least bit of fear into the hearts of those who are trying to end our way of life. You cannot do, as "BO" did, go out onto the World stage as the President of the United States, representing the citizens of this country, and bow before a King of a country that is nothing more than a purveyor of vile hatred against our country. It is force, superior and overwhelming force, that is what it is going to take to put these fanatical, maniacal religious zealots where they belong, PLANTED FIRMLY IN THE GROUND!

SHOULD WE REALLY BE CALLING WHAT BARRY IS PEDDLING, SOCIALISM?

Cartoons By Michael Ramirez
Recently I had a rather enlightening, albeit bizarre, conversation with a young guy at the place where I work. Now to be quite honest, he is basically nothing more than your basic nimrod twenty-something, who is an admitted "BO" voter and remains an ardent supporter of "BO" and, apparently, the whole idea of Socialism as he claims to understand it. This numbnuts is "the" perfect example of the brain dead type of "BO" groupie and why it is that we are where we are today both "historically" and economically speaking, since "BO" was sworn in. During our conversation, absolutely nothing I said could alter his being convinced that if what "BO" had in mind for America was Socialism then he was all for it. He saw, and continues to see, absolutely nothing wrong, having no concept of constitutionality, with "BO"s plan for increasing the government’s control of our economy nor the massive amounts of money that "BO" is now busy spending. After all, this is the result of all that he has always been "taught", that the government can do no wrong and that it is there and can be counted on to take care of all our needs. He is also all in favor of the government stepping in to ensure healthcare for all having bought into the theory that it will lower costs for all with no effect on services provided. When other similar failed systems were pointed out to him, he shrugged them off saying that wouldn’t happen here. He is exactly the kind of guy who can look into "BO"s eyes and the see that Great Messiah that is "BO". So, it was then I had an epiphany. If there are enough people out there like this bone head who are so pleased with "BO"s move to Socialism, and can’t wait for him to succeed, should we be so focused on calling it Socialism, essentially giving it so much attention.

I began to think to myself, that while it’s almost too easy to call what it is that "BO" is working so hard to inflict on our country Socialism, many people simply do not seem to have the slightest idea, concept or understanding of exactly what that truly means. Now, there will always be those among us who even though they can plainly see it for what it is, and know what it is, see no great urgency in preventing it from creeping in because they see something in it for themselves. They are the lost cause in the battle yet to be waged to prevent "BO" from the completion of his remaking of America. So, while some of us on the right are stressing over and over again that what "BO" has embarked upon so clearly fits the definition, we may be doing nothing more than conjuring up an image that for many Americans simply does not compute. The definition of Socialism, especially for many younger Americans, amounts to nothing more than what they have been "taught" practically from day one of their government sponsored, NEA administered education process. Together with the many others who are content to remain historically ignorant this makes for a substantial number of people yet to be convinced that "BO"s plan is not a good plan. When many younger people think of Socialism, what it is that they most often visualize, most likely is something that resembles those old, World War II newsreels with images of crazed dictators displaying their over the top, egregious behavior. They simply do not see something like that ever taking place in this country. Now while it can be easily argued that the underlying political philosophy being applied here today by "BO" falls under the virtual definition of Socialism, what it in fact should be portrayed as is nothing more than a return to the 20th Century form of big government, Democrat Liberalism. It must be shown for what it is, as nothing more than a return to the same old, tired, worn out version of the same old standard Democrat liberal agenda comprised of less school choice, easier abortion policies, higher taxes, expanded entitlement programs, bigger more powerful government, of income redistribution and a pacifist foreign policy albeit on very much of a grander scale. So, how do we get people to re-learn, or just learn, their own history that would show them that what is being perpetrated against us today is nothing more than another attempt at utopia, something that has been tried before, more than once, and in this country. As the saying goes, "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." Now I’m being force to repeat it because 53 percent of the voting public cannot remember it! Because the sad thing is, as of right now at least, there are more Americans who fail to remember their history than those who do, and they are assisting "BO" in his driving this country into the nearest ditch.

We should all know by now that it is the very hardcore leftists among today’s Democrats who are now in complete control of their party, so we should not continue to be unduly surprised by events taking place that reveal exactly what it is they are trying to accomplish here. What’s troubling, as well as being more than just a little frightening, is that many people don’t seem to remember that it was not all that long ago when these Democrats were permitted to incorporate wholesale changes, making much progress toward the successful accomplishment of the goals that constitute their end game. Look back no further than to Johnson, Carter and to a lesser degree Clinton to witness what was accomplished. The only thing that kept Clinton somewhat in check was that for the majority of his presidency he was forced to deal with a Republican Congress. Socialism, or what I guess we could accurately call a sibling of it, which is today’s Liberalism, is what Democrats have been practicing in its purest form and have been dedicated to bringing to maximum fruition going all the way back to Woodrow Wilson. Fast forward to today and over time you will see a steady increase in the growth of American liberalism with only a few minor set backs along the way culminating in what we are now experiencing today with "BO".

So, in all reality, what we see going on today is really nothing "new" and it does not represent "change". And, it would appear that a substantial number of Americans, at this very crucial time, had a momentary lapse of reason having apparently forgotten what exactly it is that Democrats believe in and what Democrat Liberalism actually stands for. Another contributing factor here and one that may have actually assisted them in their returning to power, is the fact that the Democrats, up until 2006, had been out of power, Congressionally speaking, for 12 years. And because of the habitual memory loss that constantly inflicts most Americans, they have once again handed power back to the politically corrupt and morally bankrupt Democrats. Now, add them those who were simply too young at that time to fully understand or comprehend what it was Democrats stood for pre-1994, and we wind up with the current fiasco we now have, with us witnessing a total and complete disaster. Many of our younger voters can’t even put a definition to Socialism and even if they could it would only reflect the garbage they’ve been taught in our public school system. To most of our stellar younger generation, the more government can do for them the better, it’s all about being fair. So therefore Socialism doesn’t sound quite so bad after all, and it may even sound like a pretty darn good idea. Of course, this is a direct result of a substantial portion of the voting public being the end product of 13+ years of brainwashing with the critical, formative years being spent in government run schools that stress the idea of socialism while denigrating the self-reliance of capitalism. Therefore, should we really be surprised by the opinions of the younger generation? And, if they have been blessed with a college education their opinions are likely to be even more skewed after being exposed to blatantly leftist professors. So, if they are "taught" to think the Socialism is a blessing, that it can in fact benefit all men, should we, realistically speaking, continue calling what "BO" is peddling, Socialism? The more we talk about what "BO" is in fact peddling as Socialism, the more a lot of people may actually want it.

THE TRUE HEROES OF THE AMERCIAN LEFT?

For everyone out there who may be under the misguided notion that as Americans, regardless of our political leaning, race or creed, we essentially all define what qualities we look for in those we call heroes the same way, I’m afraid I have some bad news. You see, it seems that the qualities looked for in those to be highly revered by those on the left, those they choose to recognize as heroes, are quite different from those used by the rest of us. And they reveal very much regarding the Left’s lack of core beliefs when compared to the rest of us who do not partake in the particular brand of philosophy. Because its the individuals that they choose to put up on their pedestal that are the very same ones that the rest of us see in a completely different light. The majority of those who stand so proudly on the left in Americans politics, and very much against their own country, are very partial to using some very questionable methodology when it comes to determining just who it is that they wish to revere. They seem to have a far different grading criterion when making their determination of what exactly it is that constitutes the definition of a true hero. The end result of their process is what amounts to be nothing more than a rogue’s gallery comprised of the most evil and sinister dictators and despots of the last 90 or so years. A list of their more popular icons is as follows:  lenin.gif (31691 bytes)
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
    LENIN – 8,000,000 DEAD
 
 Joseph Stalin
STALIN – 30-50 MILLION DEAD
 
 Mao Zedong
MAO - 20-75 MILLION DEAD
 
 Pol Pot
POL POT – 2,000,000 DEAD
 
 Fidel Castro Dating
CASTRO – 150,000 DEAD

These are the men, for whatever bizarre reason, who have long been the true heroes of the American left. There are many today who still hold these "men" in very high regard while at the same time, seeming sadly reminiscent of days gone by. These "men" are considered to be the Left’s icons of World History and are the same men that so many on the left enthusiastically swore allegiance to. The pathetic individuals that constitute the American Left and their fellow travelers have, throughout recent history, actively participated in what amounted to nothing more than an intentional and purposeful attempt to keep the atrocities committed by their heroes from ever seeing the light of day. These were atrocities perpetrated against their own citizens for no other reason than the consolidation of power. Doing their best to prevent the discovery of outrageous atrocities, these willing co-conspirators on the American Left not only created but became willing accomplices assisting in any way possible the perpetuating of a disgraceful falsehood that allowed these men to continue their killing unabated. They worked to prevent the discovery of these "men" and the terrible acts being committed until it was essentially too late to prevent literally millions of needless deaths. You can almost sense among the younger versions of those willing accomplices to yesterday’s mass murderers, a palatable sadness or sorrow at never having had the opportunity to meet any of these infamous individuals in person. As well, coming from the older generation of this very same group of leftist radicals, there seems to be a sense of longing for days gone by, for a time when it was that these genocidal maniacs were viewed as the bringers of a new utopia. Today’s leftists are very busy mining for suitable, present day replacements for those gruesome individuals from yesteryear, busy searching out candidates that can be raised to the same level as their heroes of the past. Men like Hugo Chavez and every other dictatorial nut job, as well as many of the Islamo-fascists have pretty much replaced the heroes of old and are to be just as fawned over. Remember how the Left was so enthralled with Saddam Hussein?

Today, it is not that only many on the political left, i.e., Democrats with names like Kennedy, Kerry and Dodd to name a few, but a majority of their supporters as well. Supporters made up mostly of today’s academic elitists and just as many empty-headed Hollywood types as well are busy looking to partner up with any America hating despot they can find. Most, if not all of these Hollywood mental midgets never even made it through high school, and they reveal their hatred of America by continuing to have a soft spot in their hearts, as well as their heads, for most if not all of these cold blooded murderers. A perfect example of the basic moronic Hollywood type is Steven Spielberg, who said after spending time with Fidel Castro, called his meeting with this gutless piece of crap, " the most important eight hours of my life." I have to ask you, how sick and twisted is that? And what does it reveal about Mr. Spielberg’s values or principles? It was upon hearing that that I made the conscious decision that I would never spend anymore of my hard earned money to see another Spielberg movie. The same movies I would venture to guess he would never have been permitted to make had he been living under a Castro regime at the time. And Spielberg is just one example, there are plenty more idiots out there with names like Penn, Robbins, Reiner, Sarandon, Asner, Sheen, Farrell, Fonda and many, many more halfwits. Now we know that a substantial percentage of these America hating hypocrites were the biggest supporters of "BO" for president. Always willing to contribute both financially as well as by donating their "prestige" doing their best to get their egomaniacal, Socialist candidate elected. Working hard to pull one over on those in Middle America, and I think it is safe to say looking back, worked. Now all of this raises a very interesting question. Do they see something that reminds them of their heroes from the past that we less sophisticated bumpkins do not see because we’re lacking their frame of reference? I mean no one that I know could ever identify with a Stalin or a Castro as any kind of hero because to us these men are nothing more than pure evil and deserve nothing more than to spend an eternity in Hell. You have to wonder are the heroes of "BO" the same as those of his major supporters.

What is truly frightening here and the reason I bring all this up is the fact that those in possession of a very dangerous philosophy now hold the reins of power. They and their supporters are now in a better position than ever to create even more havoc in this country not only politically but culturally as well. It is now the time for those of us whose heroes are not mass murderers, to take back our country. We cannot continue to allow these twisted individuals that have such a perverted view of not only history but also of what constitutes sound, fair and equitable government to remain in control. When we’re seeing government powers expanding more and more with each passing day, we must all come to grips with what it is that’s the end goal for "BO" and the Democrats and formulate a way to stop them. And if we can believe all the recent polling data it would seem that a majority of Americans seem to be going along with this rapidly accelerating move leftward that’s going on in our country. After his total assumption of control over our economy is successfully completed, what is "BO"s next step? Healthcare? What? It would appear that the ignorance of the American people truly does know no bounds. I know it is beyond hope to think that "BO"s more hardcore supporters made up of 99 percent of the Black community acting in concert with every other left wing nutjob are never going desert their Messiah. But, for crying out load, isn’t there anyone out there who is so proud to call themselves a Democrat that care enough about this country to exhibit just a little commonsense. Are they all so enthralled with "BO" that they are all nothing more than lemmings simply waiting to be lead over the cliff of Socialism? It’s truly scary to think that we may have already passed the point of no return, especially when we see corporate CEOs being fired by the President. How nuts is this?
