Why do we persist in our politically correct terms? Who is it that actually decides what we can call people or what words we're going to use to define something.
Consider that we refuse to use the words for terrorists that we ought to be using... Muslims. Do you know of a single case of christian Terrorism, or Buddhist terrorism, or any other religion for that matter? It is for this reason I say that we either ought to call it by the religion doing it or we ought to call it by the nation doing it. We need to show some stones about this issue and get serious about it. Instead of defining the people by the act and always calling them nothing more than terrorists because he use terrorism, we ought to call them what they are and say, the Muslims attacked this or that place.
We are so afraid of offending the religion and everyone seems to accept the media and politically correct speak that Islam is basically a peaceful religion it is sickening. Do we have radicals in other religions committing acts of terrorism all over the world? Do we have even a small core of people from other religions recruiting for the sake of subjugating the rest of the world in the name of their religion. If any of those religions experiences on the rare case a person (singular) who does such a thing does not the rest of the religion immediately state their objection to what that one individual did and really condemn it; not merely express sorry for the victims?
This entire situation is peculiar only to Islam but we all pretend it is not. Millions of people engaging in terrorist attacks from just one religion is not longer the exception, it is the norm. Why is it that no one seems to investigate the writings of the Koran and tell us what it really says? The reason is because they know if they did that every one would quickly see just what Islam stands for and where it is going. This is a religion that openly and extensively threatens to kill people for simply insulting their religion or even making fun of its prophet and the rest of the world feels it has no right to criticize this. The reason for this is that they would like to pretend they are not already terrorized when in fact they are.
They try to hide under the sophistry that they are above the fray and won't enter into denigrating another religion. Of course in the next breath they are breathing all kind of hatred and disdain for Christianity. Even in this no one will recognize the hypocrisy.
Let us face reality and start calling the Muslims what they are... Terrorists... instead of implying that only this particular terrorist is a Muslim rather we should say this Muslim did this or that. We can always differentiate for all the other vast number of cases when it is another religion. I'm sure we'll see lots of those reports. It is insane.

The Recession is Over?
More propaganda… I'm not sure where he dug up these people but it seems that Obama has found some economists who are willing to say the most ridiculous things. They saying that the recession ended in June of 2009. They say this based on an economic description of the end of a recession. To an economist this is when an economy shows 2 consecutive quarters of Growth. If this happened in 2009 then why did it take them more than a year to discover this fact. Weren't these numbers out in July of 2009? Yet the media doesn't question the numbers at all or how they came up with them; instead they resort to what it feels like and the rate of unemployment. It would seem those in the media don't have enough common sense to determine that what these guys are trying to feed us is nothing more than propaganda.
These things ought to be challenged by the media, but they cannot be bothered to do their own research or be truly educated on these things so instead they just behave like the talking heads they are. They simply continue to spit out whatever they are told as though it was the truth. It is certainly not the truth but it ought to make anyone wonder how they only discovered these numbers now. They ought to be asking these guys why they're just coming out with this revelation now only a little more than a month out from the elections?
Even if it were the case that the technical term for recession and its end were 2 months in a row of positive growth what about all the intervening months and was there growth then? What about the definition for what makes a recession? Did we fall back into one? I think it may be the case, but of course no one is reporting any of this because they don't seem to know how to use Google, or the encyclopedia.
To say that GDP went up cannot be the only thing we look at. To do that is too view it in a vacuum in which it doesn't exist. During that same period of time national debt skyrocketed. Think of it this way. It is as much as to say the economy of a household is looking much better because the husband got a slight raise but ignoring the fact that the household spending so outstrips that raise that things are far worse now then they were before.
Obama would have us ignore these other facts and realized that due to a couple of quarters of Growth in GDP that he could declare an end to the recession. This is nothing more than misdirection. It is ignoring the fact that our spending has so outstripped the growth in our economy that it is worse than it was before by far! Some GDP models include the spending as part of their calculation but some do not. Since no information of which model was being used to declare the recession over has been stated we are only left to wonder which one their using. This too is another thing the media can't be bothered to find out.
It seems that both they and we are so eager to hear any shred of good news that we're willing to accept whatever they tell us even though we know it defies common sense. This is supposed to be the job of the media. They are supposed to find out these things for us and to help explain them for those not familiar with the concepts, but once again we have a media that is asleep at the wheel.
By all means do not believe what the media tells you when they tell you the recession is over. If all they can do is make the statement with the simplest of explanations that it is two quarters with positive GDP and no further explanation then you can be sure they haven't looked into it at all and are simply reporting what they were told in some sound bite.
We need people who will begin to do their own research and be truly investigative like we had during WaterGate. Consider how quickly they dropped the investigation of Sestak bribery situation.

Vote For the Candidate Not the Party
It is interesting that since O'Donnell has won, every media outlet including Fox News Continues to run all the things that are wrong with O'Donnell. Clearly the Republican party can be as relentless in their attacks as the Democrats. The only problem is that democrats are only on the attack against republicans while republicans can only show zeal and great offense against their own. When it comes to the opposition they are mealy mouthed. It has turned into a show. The democrats say there is a civil war within the republican ranks and I believe there are right. The only time republicans stand for their own is when they are part of the "good ole boys" club. If you're not a member then the sign reads, "Need Not Apply".
I have yet to hear a good report from the media defending O'Donnell, but then again I suppose I shouldn't be surprised. Rather than do their own research they simply get the enemies and friends of a person on to give their spin. I am so tired of spin at this point! The worst thing is that it is everywhere. Even O'Reilly on Fox News has given up referring to his show as the "no spin zone". I suppose he recognizes that he too has a lot of spin and that is just part of the news business.
Where is the real investigative reporting. Fox News, the lone news station willing to say something different than the rest of the media, seems to take the attitude that to criticize someone is being biased no matter how deserved and the rest of the media are determined to protect one point of view and one party no matter how ill deserved it may be. What an insane world we live in.
It is beginning to look like the republicans can no more be trusted to be conservative than the democrats can be trusted not to be socialists and communists.
It is for this reason that what we really need to do is support the person not the party. Both parties are failing us left and right. I find it amazing that only one senator supported Christine O'Donnell out of all of them, and the rest of them seem to be on the attack against her. They all say they want her to win and then busy themselves explaining to everyone all the reasons she won't or can't win. They also have to get in all the jabs of all her shortcomings. At least this has been the case in every instance with Carl Rove. It is like it is more important to him now to defend why he said what he said than it is to see a republican in there.
He and others talk about how important every seat is and then the most the republican party can muster in support is $42,000. That is chump change in today's electioneering.
The republican "good ole boys" club is so mad their RINO, Mike Castle didn't win that they just can't get over it and have to keep going after O'Donnell. They talk out of both sides of their mouths. On the one had they say how important that seat was, as though it was already lost, and how they are behind O'Donnell but with the next breath they're busy telling all of American why she can't or shouldn't be the one to win. They behave as though Mike Castle was the only one in the whole United States that could have or win that seat.
Our politicians, BOTH PARTIES, have such a sense of entitlement to their positions that they can't stand the idea of anyone new in those positions unless they are "sanctioned" with the RNC stamp of approval.
This is just one more reason we need to get every person in congress with this attitude out of congress. They are there for us. Out of 350 million people in the United States they would have us believe there are only 500 people who are actually qualified for their jobs. It is sad what pride this shows.
It is time for these people too go! I believe the democrats are worse than the republicans because of their pervasive Marxist, socialist, communist world views, but it is also a serious probably when you have a class of people who think they were born to rule.
These people need to be made to realize they are not supposed to RULE us they are supposed to REPRESENT us!
I say every time an incumbent comes up for a vote unless they can demonstrate the laws they've voted for and the actions they've taken are to protect and defend the constitution they should not be permitted back in office.

Obama A Christian?
I know this issue has come up before and seems to keep coming up but we really need to ask ourselves if Obama is really the Christian he has put out the word he is? If Obama is a Christian then why leave The portion of the Declaration of Independence that says we are endowed with rights by our creator.
At a meeting of the Congressional Hispanic Congress Obama had the following to say when he supposedly quoted the Declaration of Independence.
Obama said, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, endowed with certain inalienable rights: life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."
The fact that he would somehow make a decision to change the wording of one of the most central documents of the United States ought to cause a great deal of outrage and anger by all who know. In many respects this is a very anti American thing to do. It should be addressed and should be confronted. Obama should be made to answer for this, but I wonder how many people even noticed it?
As with many politicians it almost seems as though the more he gets away with doing the more he has to try. Some say that serial killers want to get caught and that's why they keep doing what they do. I wonder if the same isn't true of politicians.
Obama seems to go out of his way to spit in the face of Americans, to mock us, mock the constitution, instruct us as though we were children, and do things that are clearly not according to the constitution. Yet through all of this no one is willing to declare the things he's doing are either unconstitutional or anti American. No one wants to say he's a socialist and all I can wonder is if people know what socialism is or if they're simply to afraid to call him one.
Occasionally he pays lip service to his love of our country and on rare occasions he's even said that we could excel, but for the most part he does nothing but apologize to the rest of the world for everything we've done. He tries to tell us how much we need to make up for our past. He has twisted the constitution on more than one occasion. He has expressed that he even feels it is wrong and seems to imply by what he says that he thinks we either ought to do away with it, or that we ought to at least make so many changes to it that it would be hardly recognizable.
Sadly he's already done a great job of doing everything he can to ruin as much of it as he can.
The congress has gone right along with him on this. When I say the congress I mean both sides. In this particular case the republicans seemed to understand that since the democrats had a super majority they didn't need to help them, this put them in the place where they could seem to come to the rescue but in reality many of them would have voted for the same things the democrats did if it had been needed and if it had not been for the Tea Party.
It is my hope that we will do away with every possible incumbent and do our best to start fresh. Consider the republican's treatment of O'Donnell. You would think they were democrats they were so mad the Tea Party didn't just do what it was told. They wanted a guy back in office who certainly doesn't represent the republican plank. I still can't figure how they think he would have been an asset to the party. Just because he has an "R" after his name doesn't mean he's going to vote with the republicans. I believe they wanted a couple of those types in office so they could behave as thought he democrats just barely stopped them on things when in reality it's just more business as usual.
I will continue to say that we really need to get all of these people out of office. They have not demonstrated any high degree of honor for the constitution or the nation. They do not seem to hold to any real moral or ethical standard whatever.
Even if O'Donnell has her problems or does a bad job it's not like we're stuck with her for 20 years as we were with Mike Castle. It is not as though we can't get rid of these people in a few years and that is precisely what we ought to be doing.
Enough is a enough! Throw D' Bums Out!!!!

Moderate Muslims What a Joke!
The media is certainly TERRORIZED by Islam. They like to pretend that they are the beacons of truth but they are afraid to give any serious coverage of Islam or do any serious research of Islam.
All they want to do is keep parroting the politically correct views that Islam is mostly moderates... whatever that means. Clearly they have not even taken the time to read the Koran. If 9 our of 10 Muslims are Moderate and opposed to the "terrorists" then it ought to be ever so easy to find Muslims condemning what the terrorists are doing, yet at best they seem able to find only 2 or 3 that seem to hold any really moderate view.
They reported that we were not going to let the "terrorists" change our life style, but they most certainly have. They have cowed the media into any serious look into what they really believe or any serious criticism of any of their actions.
I find it interesting that if just one nutcase doesn't something wrong in the name of Christianity it becomes immediately assumed that they represent all Christians, yet no matter how many Muslims threaten to kill cartoonists or anyone else who threatens to burn their book or drawn pictures of Mohammed it is still assumed that for the most part they are mostly moderate.
As I have said in the past if you are so sure that Muslims are mostly moderate then I dare you to go to a mask... you pick the Mosque and draw funny pictures of Mohammed or tear up a Koran... then do similar with any Christian Church... burn or tear up a bible, draw funny pictures of Jesus... Do you really think you'd be as afraid that something might happen at the church as at the mosque.
Get real. Read their book and you'll see what they believe unless your position is that they simply don't believe what they're most holy book teaches which I find and absurd postulate.

Brilliant Republican Strategy
I must say I'm as fed up with the republicans as I am with the democrats.
They clearly wish to control the Tea Party, which is NOT going to happen. They tried to tell the Christine O'Donnell to back out of the race. Their reason because she didn't have a chance to win. I believe it was really because they didn't have control over her. They would rather have a liberal republican who's been in office for 20 years take it even though he really doesn't represent our values.
They whine that Christine winning the primary may ruin their chances of control of the senate. It sounds very much like Obama and the Democrats blaming republicans because they can't get things passed when they have control.
The republicans refuse to really get behind O'Donnell though they talk of how much they need that seat yet they're only going to throw the minimum amount of support so they can say they tried.
This shows it's not really just about winning back the house and the senate but about having "THEIR" people in there. Clearly the republicans are more concerned about being able to keep progressives in office and keep the agenda moving forward.
Sadly I think many, most, maybe even all of the republicans represent the people little if any more than the democrats. They are annoyed that the people want O'Donnell.
Consider for a moment what this really means. It is the same as what democrats are saying. The republicans are saying we the people really don't know what we're doing. We need their guidance. They don't feel they should submit to what we want rather we should bow to their superior political knowledge and understanding.
It is insulting how the democrats and republicans treat us like children that need to be led by the hand. If the republicans lose the seat in Delaware they have no one to blame but their lack of support. Whatever support they were going to give Mikey.. they should give O'Donnell if they're serious about winning. I don't believe they are. They are serious about wanting control and O'Donnell doesn't promise that to them.
We even have the republicans doing everything they can to bring up anything in her past that could possibly hurt her. Do they do this with their own? Never. If anything they do all they can to provide cover. Once again this indicates they are trying to destroy her and send a message to the Tea Party... Don't Cross Us or you won't get anywhere.
It is time that the republicans heard the same message we've been sending to the democrats.
DON'T TREAD ON US!
They are showing how much they oppose the will of we the people. What they are doing is an insult and an affront to the Tea Party and the People as well as the majority of their own party in Delaware who voted for Christine.
If this is what they intend to do we need to replace the leadership in the republican party as much as we need to replace the democrats. It would seem they are all bad apples and show it by their fruit. Rotten to the core!

The Republicans are Despicable
As you can tell from the title of this post I find the republicans despicable in the light of the recent upset in Delaware. Christine O'Donnell wins over Mike Castle for the republican seat and rather than the republicans get behind her and at least take the seat from the democrats they determine to make it very public that they are not going to support her.
It is quite clear that the republicans will only abide the Tea Party as long as it does what it's told. Their hope has been to co-opt the Tea Party. We saw the same thing happen in NY during that fateful day when they first began to realize the Tea Party was a force to be reckoned with.
They have determined like the democrats that if they can't control it they're going to try to crush it. The fact that they wouldn't support O'Donnell who clearly represents conservative values and has the support of the people indicates that they have another agenda than the conservative one.
This alone is a good reason to be ever so careful to not simply support a person for office simply because they are republican. They were telling O'Donnell to stand down despite the fact that Mike Castle is one of the most liberal republicans in office and is hardly any different from a democrat.
The republican party clearly needs new leadership that represents the will of the American people. Just the fact that they were telling O'Donnell to stand down indicates they do not represent the will of the people but some other agenda they don't want to admit too.
They, like the democrats are finally starting to show their progressive colors as well.
It has taken the Tea Party to bring them out of the shadows. I believe as the primaries and midterm elections take place we are going to see more instances of the republicans doing what they will because they are more concerned about winning than doing what's right. They don't see that doing what's right is what they need to win. This is the reason the republicans and the democrats are more or less always in equal numbers.
The republicans clearly have not gotten the message that we really want something different. Not just different from what the democrats are bringing to the table but different from what the republicans have been bringing as well.
To be honest at this point I wouldn't even care if the democrat in Delaware won the seat. Just the fact that we've gotten rid of someone who thinks he has a RIGHT to that seat is a good thing. Apparently the republican party as a whole thought he had a right to it as well; not even just that the republicans should have it but that Mike Castle should have it.
We need new blood in Washington and we need all our representatives to know if they don't do what we want we'll vote them out. People are not going to stay in Washington for decades anymore unless they are truly doing what the people want them to do.
It is for this reason I can only hope we get rid of Barbara Box, Diane Feinstein, Lynn Woolsey, Maxine Waters, Charles Rangle and all the rest who feel entitled to their positions.
Any representative who would vote for a bill without reading it is a representative we DON'T NEED in office. We can find better people than they are. The level of irresponsibility that sort of thing indicates is enough all by itself to get rid of them.
THROW THE BUMS OUT!!!
It is quite clear that the republicans will only abide the Tea Party as long as it does what it's told. Their hope has been to co-opt the Tea Party. We saw the same thing happen in NY during that fateful day when they first began to realize the Tea Party was a force to be reckoned with.

Republican Party On the Wrong Side
It is good to see that the Tea Party is not mistaking Republicans and their agenda for what the Tea Party Wants.
One Good example of how the Republican Party (not to be confused with republicans in general) is at odds with the Tea Party and thus probably indicates their goals are not really those of the Tea Party is the Delaware race where they are trying to get rid of O'Donnell and ensure that a long term republican, Mike Castle stays in office.
Enough of politics as usual. There can be little doubt that Castle is not the person the Tea Party or most Americans would want representing them. Because the Tea Party is mostly made up of normal Americans with normal grass roots desires for the United States; such things as lower taxes, less government, making sure laws are constitutional, the end to power structure in Washington which is becoming more and more like a regime and less and less representative and such like; they are the ones the republicans should be listening too.
The republicans don't want to lose their control any more than the democrats do. They've had a great working relationship together. They've all been working toward the same goals more or less. There at least as many progressives in the republican party as their are in the democrat party. The big difference is that the republican progressives aren't as radical but their goals are none the less the same it is only their methods that differ.
It is this march toward progressivism that the Tea Party Opposes and even the republican party doesn't want to see that end.
As I have said in other posts we would do well to get rid of every incumbent we can! We certainly couldn't do worse. These guys are ruining our nation and finally the people are beginning to see it. I only hope it isn't too late to stop them.
If the republican party isn't going to get out of the way on their own or won't join and support the movement and wishes of the people then those republicans need to go as well.
I only hope we will find out who in the republican party is trying to organize this defeat of O'Donnell and get rid of them at the first opportunity as well.
The republican party as well as the democrats are supposed to be there to SERVE the people NOT RULE THEM! We are NOT children that need to be lead by the hand. We are not the servants, they are SUPPOSED to be the servants, though in nearly every instance they behave as masters and rulers.
I say we should get rid of everyone of them that feels that way or through their actions and voting behaves that way. We need to vote every one of them out of office as soon as we can till they get the message or till the only ones we get that want to run or think they'll have a chance are the ones that are looking out for us not looking out for the party or for trying to keep the same guy in office for 20+ years.
House and Senate responsibilities were never meant to be a career.

The Fear Label
I find it amazing how we have become a generation of "FEAR". Anytime the media or some political agenda doesn't want you to oppose them the emotions always involved are FEAR and HATE.
I personally am so tired of this. We have far more emotions that determine why we do things. The reason we don't want the mosque at ground zero has NOTHING to do with fear. It has to do with being sensitive, it has to do with grief, it has to do with ANGER. It has nothing to do with FEAR or HATE.
Let's get off the fear and hate bandwagon. It is not always about FEAR and HATE. Where the anti homosexual sentiment stands again is not FEAR so they should stop calling it a phobia.... it's disgust or repulsion in most case. It is not about animosity or phobia.
You can be angry with your children that doesn't mean you hate them or fear them when they do something wrong. If we were to apply the political correctness to everything we'd have to tell parents to stop hating and fearing their children.... We should stop fearing and hating illegal immigrants.... these things are not all about fear and hate so let's stop the politically correct speak!

Christian Villany
I find it amazing how the media even Fox News manage to find an obscure pastor from Florida who is going to burn some Qurans and make him the bad guy.
Consider this... A man who threatens to burn some religious books is the bad guy but the Muslims who will go about killing people because of it are not? Everyone admits doing this is going to cause this to happen. I thought most Muslims were moderates, not the crazed, murdering, mayhem causing, terrorist extremist types! If this is so then burning those Qurans should make no difference at all. The moderates if they're anything like Christians who saw pictures of Christ in piss, or a picture of Mary done with elephant dung were offended but no one was killed. Now the "extremists" aren't going to be affected any more to kill people because of the burning Qurans, so the only reason they'd be saying this is that they know the "moderates" are the ones that will take action.
I personally believe the moderates are not such the majority we are told and the terrorists, fundamentalist Muslims, are not such the minority we are told. If all this really were the case then this Quran burning would not be the big issue it is becoming.
If there were a bible burning about to be done by the Muslims would there be the same outrage and demands to stop it? Would anyone fear for their lives because of this action? The Muslims are people who burn other people not just books. They cut their heads off and drag them through the streets.... Hmmm let's see... burn some books.... burn some people and kill them... this seems to me to be a measured and moderate response from the tolerant, bridge building Islamic religion.
We can always depend on the news to give us perspective.
If you sense sarcasm here you should. This is what we've come to. We must curtail our freedom of expression because Muslims may be offended... and I suppose if they start killing people over this it will somehow be our fault.
Isn't this like blaming a citizen for getting killed because he yelled for the police... clearly it owuld be the honest citizens fault for making trouble for criminal!
What is the matter with the people of this nation.
We have bought the lie that Islam is a religion of peace. We do not have a single reporter willing to read the Quran and find out what is really in there. All they have to do is blame some imaginary minority and everyone accepts and reports that.
Why are we attacking this man for his freedom of expression rather than reporting that maybe Muslims aren't as peaceful and moderate as they pretend?

The Politics of Fear
The following headline from:
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/columnist-obamas-election-triggered-fear-of-a-white-minority/
Obama’s Election Triggered ‘Fear of a White Minority’
This is just one more example of the politics of fear. It is amazing that to the liberals every action of opposition is either motivated out of fear or hate. I suppose this indicates that they are, in their mind, the only two motivations that a conservative can have.
OK, let's go with it, but straighten out what it is we are afraid of and fear.
We are not afraid of Obama's blackness, we are afraid of his socialism and the methods he is using which violate the constitution.
We do not hate Obama because he's black, we hate what he's doing to the economy, we hate that he insists we are all haters. Is that what is on his mind all the time as well as other liberals and progressives. I believe they are the ones with fear and hate of the very nature they accuse others of. In their minds those are the only 2 reasons a person can oppose another person in politics if they are different from us. Of course who isn't different from us. Do we hate everyone? How absurd.
Rather than defend bad policies, socialism, a refusal to be transparent, a method of passing a bill (health care) that was not constitutional, the contradictory statements of wanting us energy independent as he close nearly all offshore drilling and let's the drilling platforms to go other countries, The idea that spending more money than you have is good for the economy and trying to live on a budget is bad for... rather than defend these things with reason, which of course they cannot because they are unreasonable, they are left with only one thing, accusing people of hate, bigotry and fear.
Yes we hate what is happening. We may even hate the individual doing it, but that has not to do with his skin color. This is as insane as to insist that Obama is a racist because he continually attacks George Bush a white president. This is of course a clear indication of his racism. Further I have not seen him attack any black senators but goes after the republican senators all the time this of course shows his fear of white people.
Why is Obama such a racist, bigot?
Yes this is hyperbole, but isn't this exactly what the left does except in their case they behave as though it were genuine hate, bigotry and fear rather than hyperbole. Their disingenuousness is appalling. Their hypocrisy is obvious and it is easy to see where the real hate and fear are.
Those in the media are incapable of impartiality and real reporting. They miss the real issues and focus or even make up issues that have nothing to do with what is really going on. I would say maybe they should become fiction writers, but then I suppose they already are.
OPEN YOUR EYES PEOPLE! (media!) Clearly you are afraid of the truth, but then with all the misinformation and misdirection fed to the people through the media outlets it is little wonder they fear the truth.
When you hear our non-representing representatives using this same kind of rhetoric you know it is time for these people to be put out of office as well. They are the real haters and bigots. They project their attitudes on the rest of us. They only know of turning people against each other. They know nothing of real unity. Isn't this the job of a community organizer. Obama has shown his consumate skill at dividing people and getting them to fight with each other. He knows how to push people's buttons and it seems it is all he knows.
Consider a man who admits he doesn't have all the facts and immediately declares the cops are clearly stupid. Yet with equally as few facts he can take the side of an Imam in NY who wants to build a mosque on ground zero and send him around the world as a representative for the united states.
Who are the people making judgments without facts or in some cases against the facts as they are plainly known. Those are the people who are haters, prejudice, bigots and phobics.
We don't need people of this character in government. We don't need leaders that condescend toward us like Barbara Boxer who had to correct someone of equal rank about how to address her as a superior. Their arrogance is and should be appalling.
They keep hoping you'll forget and for the most part the American people do since we still keep voting 90% of them back in office even though they only have an 11% approval rating. This most certainly must make them laugh at what idiots their constituents are.
Your current representative is no better than anyone else's if almost 90% of the American people feel their doing a bad job. You should ask yourself what they know that you don't. Throw them all out of office and let's find some people we can trust!

The Accusation of Hate
It would seem that you cannot say anything that disagrees with the progressive/democrat agenda without being accused of racism, some kind of phobia or hatred.
We need to ask ourselves who really are the ones that are stirring the pot and trying to get people worked up to acts of violence? Who are the ones that have actually acted violently? It has clearly been the unions and the liberals and not just recently. This is the only means they understand to get what they want.
Most alive today don't remember the anti Vietnam War rallies. They don't remember how the left spit on our returning soldier, or yelled at them in the streets or called them baby killers. Their methods have not changed. They feel they have the right to respond however they please no matter how severe it might be if it might serve their ends. You have only to listen to the response of some of our representatives to their constituents at town halls. They demonstrate no concern for all the hatred they spew out and in some cases even seem to inflame their constituents. At the same time if you try to call them on these things you are the one that is a bigot or a hater.
Consider the most recent situation on 8/28/10 when Glenn Beck held a gathering at the capitol. Al Sharpton declared that he was somehow denigrating what Martin Luther King did, though all he did was speak of understand, character, and virtue. Al Sharpton had planned nothing before that, but when he heard Glenn Beck was he had to plan something himself. Everything he said was accusing in its nature even the very tone of his voice was angry. It was as though no one but black people could celebrate what MLK said on the steps to the Lincoln Memorial. His statements indicated that he though this day somehow belonged to black people and to Martin Luther King. Many Criticized MLK's niece for speaking at Glenn Becks meeting once again as though even MLK's niece didn't have a right to say anything about it. How self righteous these people are. So it is not only black people but it's the right kind of black people that have the only right to celebrate anything MLK did or said.
This kind of absurdity has to be confronted and it should be confronted by the media but of course they are worse than asleep at the wheel. They are among those fomenting these bad feelings. These people need to be confronted with their own hypocrisy. We need to contact the media it seems just not buying their papers or watching their shows is enough.

Obamacare Will Never Go Away
Months ago when Obamacare first passed I said something and I still stand by it.
Obamacare will never go away. It will become like Social Security. This will be the case in more ways than one. First it will go bankrupt as well as creating a great deal of pressure on the economy to try to sustain it when that is not possible and second We will not be able to get rid of it any more than we have been able to get rid of Social Security.
Like all entitlements the progressives have understood that all they needed to do was to get it in place. Once in place and people begin to use or benefit from the service at all they become hooked like drug attics. They feel it is free and that they are not paying for it because they forget that it is coming out of their pockets in the form of taxes.
Obama knows that even should the congress be completely taken over by the republicans that he still has progressive republicans in play that he can depend on to vote against repealing it. He further understands and has confidence that even if they tried to repeal it he can veto it and then it requires a super majority to overturn is veto.
For these reasons he is quite confident that republicans won't even really try. All they'll do is leave it in place and try to "tweak" it. Knowing this will be the case means it will become cemented in place and it will not be repealed. The greedy progressives, republicans included will not allow themselves to tweak the taxes required to run it because if nothing else they will be able to use that income for other things.
Short of a near revolutionary outrage over Obamacare we are going to find we are stuck with it. I believe many Americans don't understand what this is really going to mean. Consider the wonderful job done with Social Security and you may get some idea of just how bad this is. Yes it has lasted and been a drag on our economy and our income through taxation for almost 100 years and yet know wonders that they could have done better for themselves by simply investing that money themselves.
I beg you all... Please look at your paychecks. See how much you actually made and how much you got to keep. All the rest is taxes or in some cases some of it is union dues or healthcare, but the bulk of it is taxes. Imagine you got to keep most of that. In my case it amounts to nearly $1800.00/month. This is a decent mortgage payment above and beyond what I'm already paying for mortgage. This means that had I had that money all the time and simply put it into a house by the time I retired I'd own a second home outright. Now since I can't live in 2 homes at the same time I'm sure I'd have been renting the second one out which means that I'd actually have been able to pay it off even faster with the help of rent and might well be able to buy 2 or even 3 additional homes. Do you really think I would not be able to retire easily with that.
Oh you may say, but that money also goes for education. Many of us are already paying for private education for our kids, but lets suppose that I take some of that money and use it for the education of my kinds with private education. Again it would not be a hardship because all of that is money I'm making but giving to the government instead of my own needs. My kids would undoubtedly get a better education than they are now and I'm sure I'd still be working on at least one additional home.
Do not kids yourselves the government will never be as careful with your money as you will. They do not have the vested interest in it that you.
Make no mistake if something is not done about Obamacare quickly the moment will be lost and we will be saddled with it for a very long time to come. You will of course be expected to pay for it with your hard earned taxes unless you are one of the 50% of the population who doesn't pay any taxes at all, and I'm NOT TALKING ABOUT THE RICH. The progressive would have you believe the RICH are the only ones not paying their fair share. There are many others earning far less than the "rich" who are also not paying any taxes.
I do not say this to make you angry with those people which is just more of the class warfare the government loves to put on us. It is to tell you that the problem is the government itself. It doesn't know how to collect taxes. It doesn't tax fairly. It takes far TOO MUCH in taxes, and it doesn't spend our taxes wisely.
Is there anything in the constitution that says or even mildly indicates that it is the government's job to provide for our health care? if so wouldn't we have had it for the last 200 years. Or maybe you believe the drivel from the progressives who would have you believe our founding fathers were a bunch of doddering old idiots who were only out for selfish gain... You know the men who gave their lives, their fortunes, their reputations, lost the lives of their children in the revolution. You know those selfish greedy rich guys.
If we don't make healthcare go away very quickly we will never rid ourselves of it. Surely you must see this is the way of the political world and the real world. Our progressive leaders would like us to forget about Obamacare and so they certainly don't intend to mention it at all if they don't have to.
Remember right after they passed it how they boasted what a great step forward it was, but you haven't heard a single thing about it's wonders since. Doesn't this make you wonder why? It's because it's not the WONDER they tried to pretend it was to get it passed. It is just another way to take more control and power over the people of a nation that is supposed to be self governing.
Don't let your representatives think you've forgotten about health care. Let them know you will keep voting them out by doing so at every election you can.
Stop voting these same LOSERS back into office. They have not done what you wanted them too. Not one of them shows any concern for what you want by their actions. They all SAY they are concerned but do their actions in any way show it.
Did Barbara Boxer, Lynn Woolsey, Diane Feinstein, Pelosi, Reid and many others to name a few show even to the slightest degree that they heard you at the town hall meetings they held.
They let you think they heard. They lulled you into thinking Obamacare was not going to pass and then they went after it with a vengeance when you were lulled into a false sense of security. They cannot change their progressive nature and if you leave them in office they will do the same and more TO you (not FOR you) again and again.
Obamacare will never go away. It will become like Social Security. This will be the case in more ways than one. First it will go bankrupt as well as creating a great deal of pressure on the economy to try to sustain it when that is not possible and second We will not be able to get rid of it any more than we have been able to get rid of Social Security.
Like all entitlements the progressives have understood that all they needed to do was to get it in place. Once in place and people begin to use or benefit from the service at all they become hooked like drug attics. They feel it is free and that they are not paying for it because they forget that it is coming out of their pockets in the form of taxes.
Obama knows that even should the congress be completely taken over by the republicans that he still has progressive republicans in play that he can depend on to vote against repealing it. He further understands and has confidence that even if they tried to repeal it he can veto it and then it requires a super majority to overturn is veto.
For these reasons he is quite confident that republicans won't even really try. All they'll do is leave it in place and try to "tweak" it. Knowing this will be the case means it will become cemented in place and it will not be repealed. The greedy progressives, republicans included will not allow themselves to tweak the taxes required to run it because if nothing else they will be able to use that income for other things.
Short of a near revolutionary outrage over Obamacare we are going to find we are stuck with it. I believe many Americans don't understand what this is really going to mean. Consider the wonderful job done with Social Security and you may get some idea of just how bad this is. Yes it has lasted and been a drag on our economy and our income through taxation for almost 100 years and yet know wonders that they could have done better for themselves by simply investing that money themselves.
I beg you all... Please look at your paychecks. See how much you actually made and how much you got to keep. All the rest is taxes or in some cases some of it is union dues or healthcare, but the bulk of it is taxes. Imagine you got to keep most of that. In my case it amounts to nearly $1800.00/month. This is a decent mortgage payment above and beyond what I'm already paying for mortgage. This means that had I had that money all the time and simply put it into a house by the time I retired I'd own a second home outright. Now since I can't live in 2 homes at the same time I'm sure I'd have been renting the second one out which means that I'd actually have been able to pay it off even faster with the help of rent and might well be able to buy 2 or even 3 additional homes. Do you really think I would not be able to retire easily with that.
Oh you may say, but that money also goes for education. Many of us are already paying for private education for our kids, but lets suppose that I take some of that money and use it for the education of my kinds with private education. Again it would not be a hardship because all of that is money I'm making but giving to the government instead of my own needs. My kids would undoubtedly get a better education than they are now and I'm sure I'd still be working on at least one additional home.
Do not kids yourselves the government will never be as careful with your money as you will. They do not have the vested interest in it that you.

Insanity - Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome
This is the very definition of what has been happening in politics for way too long.
We seem to think it is impossible to find anyone of integrity to run for office. We are so sure of it that we simply accept and re-elect those we know have little or no integrity.
It is clear that congress has only 11% approval rating yet statistics show that 90% will be re-elected. Is this not the definition of insanity. Being frustrated with what our leaders are doing yet voting the same people back in office over and over and expecting a different out come!
What is the matter with people?! No matter who you are... NO YOUR representative is NO better than the rest.
Does anyone seriously think that McCain is a different man? does anyone seriously think he is now a conservative after decades of progressive voting? He is only doing what is politically expedient.
Does anyone really think that Pelosi, Boxer, Woolsey or the other representatives in California are really willing to lay aside all their environmentally economically damaging agendas for the sake of fixing the budget and getting people back to work?
All our representatives have already shown us what they have to offer. We need only look at the economy to see what they have ALL collectively done!
Yes there may be a few that are OK, but for the most part even if we lost those few I don't think we would be any the worse for it. We do not need professional politicians. Indeed they are probably worst thing for us because they don't really understand what it is like to be one of the "common people".
We need to get rid of every single one of the non-representing representatives we have in office that are up for a vote. That will send them a message that we're NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE!
Tell them what you think with your vote. They clearly don't care about what they hear in the town halls. if anything they actually show disdain for their constituents.
Many of these people have expressed disdain for our wonderful constitution as well. This is the constitution they SWORE to uphold and defend. So where is that support and defense? NOWHERE to be found!
In many cases they don't even know what it says. They speak of separation of church and state and no matter what you think of the subject it doesn't exist in the constitution, READ IT and see. They talk of right to privacy... ALSO NOT in the constitution, but they sure defend it.
They speak of the rights of Private property yet are busy making sure that eminent domain wins every time. They are all for the right for Muslims to practice their religion and build where they want but stand in the way at every turn when it is Christians that want to do the same. Again they know nothing of the first amendment.
People like this we don't need in office. They try to pretend that this is the job of judges, but didn't they choose those judges knowing full well what kinds of rulings they could expect from them. They are still to blame.
You will not be any the worse off for getting rid of these people. Replace them with the real common people and you will live far happier, more prosperous and peaceful lives as well as being able to do the things you want with your own property instead of having to check with a gov't official to see what kinds of trees they want (will allow) you to plan on your own property.
Enough is ENOUGH.. Throw Da BUMS OUT!
