Barney Frank wants to set all employees salaries?

But wait, Barney Frank wants to set all employees salaries. Yes, indeed. But not to worry because you won't have a job. The jobs will be going off-shore because few companies will continue to do business in the United States. Companies that do continue to have anything but annex offices here should have the business sense of their corporate officers questioned. This is the same Barney Frank who swore he didn't know his lover was running a prostitution/male escort service out of Barney's basement. This is the Barney Frank who wants a bill that would allow the federal government to set your salary. I don't think Socialism is the right word for this... How about "certifiable" as in insane?

Top 1 % Tax Payers: can you take a tax holiday, eh?

How about this for a great idea? This comes from Neal Boortz and it is a great idea. The top 1% tax payers pay like 50% or more of all of the taxes paid to the federal government. I'm in the next 5% that pay a good portion of the rest of the 90% of all the taxes paid to the federal government. Now, I can't do what Neal suggested but I know the big boys in the top 1% can and they could have fun at the same time. They could say they were going "green" and helping by re-cycling, cutting back on the use of paper, and they could make up all sorts of ways they were helping the economy and the country. Here's Neal's suggestion. These top 1% of wage earners who get slammed by President Obama and the Democrats in Congress (even by those whose husbands are in the top 1% thanks to their government contracts, etc) could have a bit of a chat with their employers. They could figure out the very least amount of money they need to live, the very least, down to the very last dime, and get paid that amount. Maybe their children's private schools could take the children as charity cases and write off their expenses for a year. Whatever to get these folks "earned income" down to a level where they paid little or nothing in federal taxes. Heck, maybe with deductions for children and spouse, they might even get a refund. Whoo hoo! Now that would be a tea party! Not talking about them breaking any laws, just not making incomes that force them to pay such high amounts of dollars in taxes. Certainly, if they are smart enough to earn the big bucks that they have worked hard to be able to earn, they can figure out how to still do the same job and do it for much less income for a few years. They get beat up for making the money that they have gone to school to be able to make and then they are robbed with confiscatory taxes to pay for some people to sit on their butts and do nothing. These high wage income earners need to be able to enjoy life more, work 40 hours a week, spend more time with their wives and children, and earn less for a few years. No one appreciates the contribution they make anyway, right? Certainly not the person who gets the food stamps paid for by the high wage earner, nor the free health care paid for by the high wage earner, nor the subsidized housing paid for by the high wage earner, nor the meals-on-wheels paid for by the high wage earner. Time for the high wage earner to keep a little more of what he earns and the only way for him to do that is to earn less... So, to the high wage earner: I say, hold your head high and proud, take a reduction in pay for a few years, drink fewer lattes, and pay less in taxes. See if you'll be feeling the government love then, begging you to earn more... But with Obama and Geithner in charge, you can get a pink slip any old time if you work in the private sector 'cause they're gonna "nationalize" everything...so to speak. Now that's chains we're gonna wear...

Is it time to prepare impeachment drafts yet?

Is it time to prepare impeachment drafts yet or just get about keeping good, detailed notes? Talk about strong-arm tactics! Sure glad Obama's not a Republican; the news media would be apoplectic or frothing all over the teleprompters. Messy! With the firing of a private-sector employee, CEO Rick Waggoner of GM, it may be time for several forward-thinking young Constitutional lawyers to begin drawing up the initial Articles of Impeachment to be brought against Obama. Obama's behavior is the type of behavior expected in Robert Mugabe's Zimbabwe but not in the United States of America where we have a U.S. Constitution which gives the Federal government enumerated powers - 4 I believe - few of which are being handled, one being defending the nation from invasion. We can see how that's working for us. The U.S. Constitution does not give the Chief Executive of the federal government the authorization to fire civilian employees of private corporations. Does it? Isn't Obama breaking any laws at all or is this just the standard fair for Democrat presidents following in the shoes of FDR, LBJ, and Jimmy Carter's malaise? Converted into Obamalaise. Are there no laws these men can break? Are they above the laws of the land? Can they intrude into any and all private businesses within America - that's what Geithner is asker the power to do - and order the businesses around as they, the politicians like? Seems that way. The power grab with the big 3 automobile manufacturers is for one reason only: to FORCE these car manufacturers to build cars we don't want and then to force us to buy cars we don't want. Why? To make money for the Al Gores of the world and to cripple our economy. Despicable... I know "impeachment" goes no where with fellow Democrat corrupt lobbyists hiding out in the Senate and the House as Senators and Representatives but someone should be drawing up the papers anyway just to keep notes to be thorough should the time come. And while you're at it, draw up a bill that will not allow a Senator or Representative to sit on a committee that gives contracts or salary increases to his or her spouse. Senator Di Fi from San Fran and former Senator Obama from Ill. come to mind. I know there are others. Talk about conflicts of interest. And talk about increasing your own financial worth when you can funnel tens of thousands of dollars in contracts to hubby's companies that work with the Chi-Coms. What gravy!

Dictator Obama fires GM's Rick Waggoner

Say what you will, there is no private-sector job that is not safe from the long reach of the White House Human Resources Department headed by Dictator in Chief, Barack Obama. In Obama to GM's Rick Waggoner: You're fired, we can take comfort that Obama who is off selling socialism to the EU also has time to micro-manage the hiring and firing of CEOs here at home. When will he come for your job next? Sound radical? Well, it shouldn't. He already told a young woman at his 'virtual' Town Hall Meeting at the White House that those jobs that had gone off-shore would not be coming back. So one campaign promise down. Many more to follow. Yes, we have much to learn of Black Liberation Theology and other things to come as our president obama points out that WE will have to sacrifice and suffer. Thank you, mr. president, we are getting the picture. It's redistribution of wealth time in the good old US of A where once a man could earn his salary and had a chance of keeping most of it. No more. I'm just waiting to see when we have to start putting our ethnicity on our IRS forms so that "non-Hispanics whites" will have to pay a "tax for air-pollution." And already the "reparations" idea is in full swing again. But tell me. How does one count the "reparations" the nation has already paid and is still paying for "slavery" and do all folks who are other than "non-Hispanic white" get reparations even though their families have no affiliation with "slavery." For some who do not know, not all Americans of African descent were slaves even from the earliest days of our history. Didn't know that? A good book written by a black historian from the University of Virginia, Black Confederates and Afro-Yankees by Ervin L. Jordan, Ph.D., tells an interesting story. Keep in mind, Obama is no different than any dictator. He came for GM's Rick Waggoner. When will he come for you? Isn't the talk of selling GM to Fiat??? A foreign company??? And we haven't even survived the first 100 days yet and Obama is firing a CEO in a PRIVATE SECTOR job. Never before heard of in certainly recent American history. Where's the media outrage that accompanied the Saturday Night Massacre, the one over the Archibald Cox and the Richard Nixon dust-up? Oh, I forgot. The media hated Nixon and Cox was a liberal darling, being a Special Prosecutor.

Obama off to sell Socialism at the G-20

Here is Larwyn's list. Perfect reading and all in one spot.

Well, there are lots of things than can be done to "capitalism" – it can be undermined, suppressed, sabotaged, even outlawed – but it cannot be "overthrown" because in itself, it has no power. It is the very opposite, in fact, of a tyranny. It is simply the conglomeration of all the transactions made between individual and corporate players in an open market. Some people may gain power through those transactions but that power is transient and contingent on their own financial success: they are not installed in immutable positions from which they can be forcibly removed in a coup d'etat." ~~~~~ From Gigmund, Carl, and Alfred: Europe Prepares For Obama.

In Finland, Jussi Halla-aho charged: Free Speech submits to Islamic cries

Well, seems Finland has a wee bit of a conundrum going on when it comes to speaking about Muhammad when he was 50 years old and engaged to six or seven year old Aisha. Supposedly, their "marriage" was consummated when Aisha was nine years old. In some societies this would be considered pedophilia. Maybe not in the Middle East and certainly not if sanctioned by Allah as it is claimed. Very confusing to the Western mind. It seems that a Helsinki city councilman, Jussi Halla-aho, is to stand trial for blasphemy against Allah because he, Mr. Halla-aho, had the temerity to suggest that Mohammad had engaged in an act of pedophilia. The discussion at Tundra Tabloids is worth your time because Islam simply cannot have it both ways which this charge against Councilman Halla-aho seeks to do. In Free Speech Slammed in Finland as Politician is Brought up on Blasphemy Charges, you will read how it cannot work both ways. Either the Qu'ran is incorrect or Mohammad was not always a "perfect" man. Finland - how you hurt my heart! We in the larger West count on you, on Denmark too, to make your stand against being overrun by Islamists who are there for one reason only - well maybe two: to live off of your welfare state and to destroy your national heritage. Once they have destroyed you, can you imagine how very much easier it will be to run rough-shod over us? You are the testing ground. Britain and France are gone; they just don't know it yet but the funeral wreaths are on the door at 10 Downing and wherever the head of the French government is. Please, Finland, know that these are tiny measured steps to lead us all into destruction and under the yoke of Islamic domination. It is not done in numbers but in cases such as the one against Councilman Halla-aho and in the attacks upon Geert Wilders. Here's the bottom line: in some things we simply cannot know the truth or validity of what we are taught. We can beleive it; we can have faith in it; but we cannot know it to be true or false from personal experience. Can we? Or can we believe in error on the part of the writer/translator; can we allow for mis-interpretation? In Finland, the prosecuter is wrong to even bring this case. Christians of every denomination are ridiculed and God and Jesus are blasphemed against each and every day by the purest of Mohammad's followers so please, let's give this a rest. Let the Councilman say what he wants. If Allah is that great of a god, he can take it and won't care. It may perhaps be his followers who need to take a look at their own level of maturity and security in their faith and let the Councilman be. You can catch more flies with honey than you can with lawsuits and vinegar... One woman's opinion, but it seems to me that worldwide, Muslims would go a long way to demonstrating their superiority of faith and belief by not acting like petulant adolescents and by not shooting nuns in the back as happened in Somalia when the 'cartoons' came out. Be truthful, would Mohammad sanction that behavior? Would Allah? Just a question...

G-20: Blame America First Citizen of the World Smackdown

Seems like his fellow citizens of the world are not too happy with their fellow comrade, Obama... From one woman's opinion, it seems that Obama will be negotiating from weakness when he goes to the G-20 conference. Hell, I'm surprised we even qualify to attend; this Administration has broken our financial back and if not completely, intends to do so as quickly as possible. Ayn Rand is spinning in her grave. Capitalism and our freedoms are what have made us great so let's just toss it all out - per Saul Alinsky. Once a community agitator, always a community agitator, just in a larger community. The thuggish politics of Chicago have just moved to the world stage. Good grief! Sarkosy of France doesn't have to worry about remaking or reforming capitalism - Obama and company are throwing everything out with the bathwater - including the bathtub and the faucets. Obama better get ready to be knocked around by his betters: German Smackdown and French to remake capitalism is every EU powers wet dream of bringing the United States of America down. And the French will pine away as their land is covered in black burgas flowing in the breezes as the chattel scurry from place to place: (A friend tells me that Paris where she used to live is now devoid of white people) "Well, Froggy went a'courting and he did whine, but Miss American Beauty weren't at his side; oh my, oh my!" Both England and France are seeing their nations turned into Islamic Republics right before their eyes. And who will not come to their aid to defend them - America because we have been so carelessly giving money and treasure away to the entire world that we are broke. Plus we have fallen prey to the god of moral equivalency and multiculturalism: remember AIG and Citigroup are run in some aspects by Islamic Sharia Finance which is anti-capitalism as is the Obama Administration and OUR taxdollars are bailing them out. And of course, due to his Islamist roots, Mr. Obama may side with his Middle Eastern supporters. But remember, they may all dislike a strong America but they will despise a "weak" America and will pick out bones clean the first chance they get. Coming soon at a G-20 conference or UN meeting near you. How can anyone see America at the bargaining table as anything but "weak" when our Secretary of State and our president both play the mantra of: Blame America First for mess we (the world is) are in. That's absurd. If we are to blame it is because of our generosity. We've been buying allies for generations and when we need them, they cut and run. Who exactly is doing the fighting in Afghanistan? Yes, from my perspective, Mr. Obama is going to the G-20 meeting with a weak hand. Not even a low pair. Most dangerously, he is Jimmy Carter steeped in malaise. Unfortunately, he may have to become the actual President of these United States of America and ALL of her citizens one of these days through the crucible of "fire" when we are once again attacked - as we are promised we will be. Makes me sick. I'm gonna go and watch 'The Good Shepherd' again and hope and pray that we have American patriots who work beyond the realm of appeasement politics and do risk their lives for our safety and for America's constitution and our freedoms. If I am naive, so be it. I know a young man who went into CIA. Of course, I don't know what he does there but I know he was a field operative. He won't see this little post but God bless him and other Americans like him who love this nation and are working to protect her. Politicians come and go but our clandestine forces live on. I don't know how many we have as field operatives but it is to you that my prayers go out. Even if I am naive and I admit that I could be, God bless you if you are protecting us - We, the American people... God knows we need you.

Russia worried US wants to destroy Russia's weapons - Nyet!

Blog and post surfing over at Drudge Report, I came upon this great article in Pravda - not to be confused with Prada. Here's the news ariticle: USA wants to be friends with Russia to destroy its weapons. Now that title read by a conservative American who believes that Russians and Americans can have natural ties and are not "natural" enemies is funny to us. That only came about with the Bolshevik Revolution - as I see it. Here's what's funny about the Pravda headline; some of us believe that elements in USA want to be friends with Russia to destroy OUR weapons. My goodness....

Obama and Geithner: power grab or worse?

Within fewer than the first 100 days of the Obama Administration, we - the American people - and people of the world are seeing the traditional government of the United States of America with its checks and balances overthrown from within. The first frontal attack is on our economy, read here on "economic Marxism". Everyone is screaming about the Obama Administration's grab for power over every business within the United States under the whim and direction of the Secretary of the Treasury. We are seeing an attack on our free-market capitalist system which is unprecedented and beating FDR in over-taking our system of free enterprise with massive government spending to make as many of us as possible dependent upon the "government." We are promised "health care" but not told of the rationed care where your doctor or mine will be told what care they can "give" to us and what care they cannot, regardless of our medical needs. All of our medical records are being and have been put into a national data base accessible across the nation. At first blush, that may seem like a good thing but remember, for every "thing" that can have good attached, there is plenty of room for abuse. In America, our U.S. Constitution is not being shredded; it is be avoided and disregarded by the very people sworn to uphold and protect us and our U.S. Constitution. As San Fran Nan said, "We won; we write the bills." Is it a "power" grab or is it worse? The free-market system is being overthrown so quickly that Americans and elected officials cannot even have time to read much less reflect upon the legislation being thrown into the maw of this "power grab." And we the people are left defenseless. Wait, watch, as it gets worse when these laws go into effect. When you watch an elderly parent or grandparent denied health care or given minimal health care, keep in mind that you and you alone can reverse this trend toward executive tyranny. We can still vote - naive but true - but we can. Approximately 62,000,000 Americans voted against this tyranny and I am convinced that many who voted for the current administration would not have voted for the sale of their children's future, not if they had known; nor would they have voted for the outrageous debt we will soon find ourselves in. God bless America; may God protect us. America needs about 300+ MEPs in the Congress like Daniel Hannan who spoke up for the British against the Prime Minister Gordon Brown while Britian continues to cave to the Islamists within. A friend once told me that what I was experiencing was "cognitive dissonance" where nothing made sense and up was down and down was up. It is true and the administration's rush to complete the dismantling of our national roots and historical traditions within less than 100 days is in itself mind-boggling. Can you imagine giving the Secretary of the Treasury the authority to shut down any business he chooses and the Congress having the authority to dictate to businesses what salaries and bonuses the businesses will or can give to their employees?

Glenn Beck's Success on Fox News

Hubris seems to be a natural trait for us when we are successful but I do not use the term when describing Glenn Beck. The other week or so, I was watching a bit of the Bill O'Reilly show, the O'Reilly Factor. Bill was besmirching those of us who might watch TV at 5:00 PM following Cavuto's show. Bill said - taking pride in his observation - that he was sure Glenn Beck's success was due in large measure to him having Glenn on the O'Reilly Factor at 8:00PM. Well, not exactly. Glenn Beck's success on Fox is due to Glenn Beck and the fact that many of us like him and like his direct manner. So, Glenn, you've got our attention on your own. If you want to help Bill's ratings by visiting his show from time to time, that's what friends do. Fox got rid of John Gibson at 5:00PM for some reason. His show was great until they started forcing Gibson to have the "frilly fluffies" on his show as co-hosts. My major concern for Glenn Beck on Fox will be when his ratings exceed Mr. O'Reilly's ratings. For the time slot, Glenn's ratings probably are beating O'Reilly's ratings now. I cannot speak for others but the only reason I watch Bill's show is because of some of the guests he has: Dennis Miller, Laura Ingraham (sp), and Michelle Malkin and others. And the interview with Obama - yawn - just showing that Obama is a politician. Bill didn't get the horrors that would be unleashed upon us and the administration has only just begun. We haven't even survived 100 days yet. God help us... Mr. Obama, as noted here before, is Jimmy Carter redux. Down on America; down on Americans. Why? To get us worried and in that wonderful word, deep in malaise... Obama and Geithner demand the power to seize private businesses, not just financial instuitions; they want to increase the debt into numbers no one can count and certainly can't dig out from under. Yes, Obama has chains we will fit into... And then the 'volunteer' corps to suit up your children in uniforms and fill their heads with dogma, and Muslim terrorists to be freed on American streets. China won't take these men back. Good grief! And Obama tells us that people who want to kill us, Al Queda folks are planning attacks to be carried out on American soil. Big surprise here, eh? And why not. We're releasing Gitmo folks into our general population to make the attacks easier. Do NOT scream for help from our government when the next attack happens - because the chains will be for you, not the terrorists. God help us. I pray we have some folks in our nation's clandestine services who will work to protect us.

UN's Attack on the West, Industrialized Nations

We are following the Piped Piper of Death when it comes to the newest UN's walk down the Climate Change Lane. Let's see: we are under attack by the Islamists to destroy Western Civilization and throw us back into their 7th Century; by the United States Obama Administration's march into Socialism/Totalitarianism that even the EU Socialists say is too much; and now we have to deal with the U.N. 'Climate Change' Plan Would Likely Shift Trillions to Form New World Economy. Let me add that in all three cases, we, the average American people, have no defenders in the "physical" realm except God if He wants to take further risks on us. Actually, our own government seems to be against us. Even one British MP says for us not to go down the road to socialized medicine but nothing will keep Obama from rationed health care. And his willful handmaiden, our own shrew, San Fran Nan, says we need to decrease our population - to paraphrase a time-worn mantra of "kill the unborn children." No need to limit ourselves to the unborn children when rationed health care can do the job by denying care to the very sick and/or the elderly. And from Key Elements of a Global Deal on Climate Change by Nicholas Stern, Lord Stern of Brentford, we have (from page 3) an interesting note on "transfer resources and technologies to developing countries" by industrial nations - which would be the United States: "Developed countries will need to take on immediate and binding national emissions targets, demonstrate that they can achieve low carbon growth, and transfer resources and technologies to developing countries, before developing countries take on binding national targets of their own by 2020." H/T to Matt Drudge and his link: "UN Climate Scheme: Reordering world economy, trillions in wealth transfer, sweeping 'industrial relocation'..." Americans have already "transferred" trillions of dollars of their wealth down the rabbit hole. But I just cannot help myself and ask how much money Al Gore is getting with his "carbon footprints" hocuspocus magic trick? Americans - as do many citizens in other industrial nations - need defenders and statesmen in elected office and right now they are few and far between. To me, there is no question that the United Nations is in frontal attack against the United States of America. Let's kick them out of Turtle Bay and give the property to the homeless. They'd make better use of the place even if they trashed it...

Obama: won't renew drug interdiction program working in El Salvador!

According to Kenneth Timmerman writing for the Center for Security Policy in Waller: Obama curtails successful drug interdiction program in El Salvador, it seems the El Salvadoran government wants to extend a drug interdiction program with US. Why? It's working! We can't have that... H/T and thank you to the Center for Security Policy. Obama says, "Hey, if it works, let's break it" as he curtails the program and our State Department under Secretary Hillary Clinton says no to extending the drug interdiction program. Change we can believe in? Nope... Aren't we having enough trouble trying to help Central and South American countries fight rebellion forces often fueled by drugs, drug wars, and drug cartels? It is estimated that we have 30,000 members of MS-13 (ruthless drug gang) in the United States now, very active in Northern Virginia. You didn't hear of the near-beheading murders in Northern Virginia? And we have a drug interdiction effort combining US P-3 maritime search aircraft and El Salvadoran forces to fight the FLMN. Well, we had a program that was WORKING!!! ~~~~~ From J. Michael Waller posted at the Center for Security Policy:
"The State Department has turned down an offer by the government of El Salvador to renew a joint drug interdiction program that allows the U.S. Navy to base P-3 maritime search aircraft at Comalpa International airport in El Salvador. The 10-year agreement, which went into force after the Salvadoran legislature approved it in 2000, is set to expire next year. The Office of National Drug Control Policy recently estimated that more than half of the drugs destined for the United States pass through the Pacific corridor patrolled by the P-3 aircraft based in El Salvador. "El Salvador has been our staunchest anti-drug ally in the region, outside of Columbia," said J. Michael Waller, a Latin America expert with the Center for Security Policy. "This program was very well established. The Salvadoran government wanted to extend it for 10 years, and the State Department said no. What kind of insanity is that?"
~~~~~ He's right. "What kind of insanity is that?" It's Obama-mania insanity, that's what kind of insanity it is. But that's what we seem to be getting from the "new kids" tromping through the White House - insanity! And chaos. Yep, Hillary and Barry sure do want to reduce the amount of drugs getting into the US. Yep, uh-huh! Remember, it is estimated that MORE than HALF of the drugs destined for the United States streets and our children - see the movie Traffic again if you can stand it - come through that corridor where the drug interdiction program IS SUCCESSFUL. Just remember, for the far-left Socialist Democrats in the US Executive, Legislative, and Judicial Branches of our government, "chaos, confusion, and insanity" is GOOD! The more we scream for help; the easier to slip on the chains of control...and slavery around our waving wrists. Are Obama's policies safe? Do his policies make us safer or just more controlled? Or are they designed to increase the chaos?

Obama and his legacy of the New of American Slavery

I believe Mr. Obama's mission is to convert the United States and her people from the "land of the free and the home of the brave" to the land of slaves threatened in ways I can't even imagine. Just look at the threats from people against the families of AIG execs. What? In America? For those of you who have learned to read in our "government" schools, here's another book for you: Lenin, Stalin, and Hitler: The Age of Social Catastrophe by Robert Gellately. Around the end of December 2008 and early-2009, I got this strong nudge to read about the Romanovs of Russia and about the times leading up to the Russian Revolution of 1917 when Lenin and his merry thugs took over. One major book was entitled: Stalin. (which means 'man of steel') The FIRST, the very FIRST thing that Lenin and his thugs did was take over the banks and the financial institutions. This of course threw the country into chaos. They always worked the "class envy" card but this resulted in the farmers and folks who actually knew how to produce food getting massacred. We MUST at all costs not fall for Obama or his surrogates tossing "villians" out before us like the different levels of execs of AIG as fodder for us to destroy. The e-mail threats that these folks and their families are getting are an embarrassment to law-abiding Americans. Also, these execs and mid-level execs were working under legal contracts; as in NOT BREAKING the law. Don't fall for the ploy. For the folks asleep at the switch look to our Congressional oversight folks such as Barney Frank and Chris Dodd. Mr. Obama does not want US to succeed; he wants US to fail because that opens the door wider for the government to come in and control us. If you do not want us to become a third-world, tribal nation, ruled by a tight-fisted government of thugs, then step back from this frothing and read; then vote for what is best for OUR nation. AMericans are going to have to set some partisan stuff aside and dig deep within ourselves to become the "statesmen" our elected thugs in DC cannot be. Don't for the "blame" game. We, as Americans, are better than that. If we fall for that canard, we'll be playing into the hand Obama is playing and that hand ends with more and more restrictions upon you and me with tighter and tighter controls over our daily lives. We can stop this tide which is lifting all boats on the wave of SOCIALISM/TYRANNY and the time to stem the tide in in the elections of 2010. God bless.... Read Mark Levin's book: Liberty and Tyranny and pick up a good book on James Madison and the founding of our nation. Remember: government sanctioned chaos and confusion plus government take-overs of our businesses fuels "their" - the far-left Socialist's greed and their greed has no end. I think Socialist is too mild a discriptor but I don't have a better one at the moment. I think the desire is total tyranny and government control of every American's life from "cradle-to-grave." Step back, read some history, and then pay attention to the votes going on in Congress - the House and Senate. We need some laws changed but - off topic - one we need NOW is that Senators cannot be allowed to be lobbyists for their spouses - Obama helping out Mrs. Obama's hospital getting a grant that gave her a hefty salary increase to nearly 1/2 a million dollars a year; Senator Di Fi of California sitting on a Senate Committee that funnelled billions of dollars in contracts to her husband's business interests in China. Alexis de Tocqueville in his Democracy in America called what we are sliding into under the "leadership" of Mr. Obama, "soft tyranny" but I think slavery is closer to the reality of what Mr. Obama and Timmy Geithner have in store for us.

Obama: Leading US to Slavery

Does this sound familiar as a strategy?
But the one thing Obama seemed incapable of doing was to give the Republic a breathing space in which to contemplate its internal problems, sort them out, recover solvency and determine a system of priorities for future development while marking time as a great power. Everything had to be done at once, and nothing was done properly.
These words were written by Edward Crankshaw about the times leading to the final Russian revolution in The Shadow of the Winter Palace - Russia's Drift to Revolution 1825-1917, page 198. (published in 1976, IBSN 0-670-63782-3) That would be the revolution that brought us Communism. The actual quotation would replace Obama with Alexander II and Republic with Empire. Of course, in the case of the United States of America, Obama does not dare give us "a breathing space in which to contemplate" the outrageous steps he is taking to overthrow our government based upon free enterprise and capitalism with individual rights and responsibilities. There will be no time to reflect - marry in haste, reflect in leisure - until all the businesses have been taken over or closed down, until the government controls all and we, like the serfs that Alexander freed, are beholden to our new messiah and his government. Obama does not want capitalists to "help" solve our financial problems, problems made by Democrats under Jimmy Carter and hastened along by our more recent presidents from both parties. When Obama whines, "we inherited" these problems, take it as fact that he could not be happier. Actually, looks like the stage was set rather well for him to come in after Clinton and Bush II and swipe everyone up into the grasping maws of larger and larger government. And Hank Paulson did it with a three-page letter that turned into a 1,100 page bill that no one read but Obama signed. That was step one. Now Geithner wants power to regulate the salaries of executives in any financial institution of his choice. What? Is Obama pushing for SOCIALISM writ in large letters or does he have something more sinister in mind for us? There is some irony that a "black" man - white mother/black father - with no "slavery heritage" in his background who has received all of the benefits of the men and women - white and black - who worked for equality of opportunity is striving to be the man who will to return us ALL to slavery and into wards of the state. Well, the elections of 2010 will soon be upon us. Time to change the power in the Senate and the House. For the future of all of us regardless of political party. If you want your children to have a chance at freedom or to be mired in slavery, you'll have a chance to vote in 2010. What will you choose then? The clarion call of vultures picking your children's pockets or the call to freedom and liberty as set forth by our Founders.

Obama wrecking US defenses

Writing as the president of the Center for Security Policy, Frank Gaffney, Jr. has it right: Wrecking Operation: Our enemies perceive exploitable weaknesses. Obama is wrecking our military strength, leaving allies in the lurch, and following Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals as quickly as he can and in as many ways as he can. And last but hardly least, to quote Mr. Gaffney: "Last but hardly least, a “respectful” Obama administration seems keen to embrace those in the Muslim Brotherhood and like-minded Islamist organizations who seek to impose the toxic theo-political-legal program authoritative Islam calls Shariah on distant populations – and insinuate it into our country." Obama's Islamist colors are shining through. Islamist organizations like the Muslim Brotherhood - you remember the taxi strike not too long ago in the Twin Cities - have found their friend in the White House as they work to drape the veil of Islam's theo-political-legal cradle to grave authoritative control over us one measure at a time. And first they came for the banks....

Mark R. Levin: Liberty and Tyranny; with a comment on Sharia Finance

Start reading NOW: Liberty and Tyranny by Mark R. Levin, a Conservative Manifesto. We have whipped the Republicans around and the cat-o'nine tails is ripping the skin off of our bodies. We - as a people - put Obama in the White House and we gave him a democrat-led House and Senate. Shame on us! Now we are the ones being beaten soundly around the head and shoulders. Americans of all political stripes, except the diehard Leftists who should be in Siberia for what they are doing or trying to do to this country, should stand for freedom for everyone. Okay, so Republicans and average Democrats differ on their views on a few things. Some people like to give a man two fish so that he'll be dependent and have to come back the next day for his ration of two fish. Others like to teach a man to fish so he can be a man and catch his own fish and, if he wants to do so, even open up his own fishing company to catch fish for those of us who work at other jobs. Either way, we MUST take the power out of the hands, mean hands, of the Democrat leadership and give the power back to We the people. We wanted to punish the Republicans for their wayward spending. Seems laughable now compared to Obama's spending and he hasn't even hit 100 days yet. We need to wipe that fixed smile off San Fran Nan's face and take her out of her job as Speaker of the House before she kills us with more taxes and spending until there are no more trees left in America for printing money. History books are being re-written as I type: the era under Obama when the United States changed from a representative republic into an autocratic nation under Presidential Tyranny. True, Bush, Clinton, and Bush II paved the way and are we ever paying for it... But we are Americans and we - together - can fight our way out from under the boot of legislative and executive tyranny. We still have a vote and we may have to set partisan politics aside to win our freedoms back. Then we can disagree about the little things. We can re-institute those deductions on all charitable giving, on home mortgage interest, on real estate property taxes. The little things that make home ownership a good thing. And we can teach ourselves about Sharia Compliant Finance and how to keep it out of our nation. More references on Sharia-Compliant Finance: here and at Atlas Shrugs: Sharia Finance = Money for Jihad. Why these references when championing Mark R. Levin's book, Liberty and Tyranny? Islamic imams and higher leaders have declared "war against us". This is a war that we didn't start but are forced to fight. The Islamists are fighting with every weapon they have: visible and invisible. Sharia-Compliant Finance is one of the worms that can work itself into the host body hardly detected at all until the host has been mortally wounded. Our liberty and our free enterprise financial system go hand in hand in keeping our 'body politic' healthy and well. Sharia-Compliant Finance seeks nothing less than our complete destruction. It is a 'weapon of mass destruction' that will tear us to shreds. AIG and Citigroup, it is my understanding, both practice aspects of Sharia-Compliant Finance and our taxpayer dollars are going to support both of these international companies. And as Pamela says at Atlas Shrugs: "Sharia Finance equals money for Jihad", money that fuels the Islamists engine of war.

Obama and Geithner to seize financial firms at will?

And first they came for the banks... That is what Lenin did in Russia in the beginning of the take-over of Russia and transforming it into the Union of Soviet Socialists Republic. With information such as U.S. seeks Expanded Power to Seize Firms by Binyamin Appelbaum and David Cho, Washington Post Staff Writers, it is clear - crystal clear - that Obama's plan is to destroy our free enterprise system and to nationalize our businesses with a Green (bright, neon green) Beret as the government representative in every business that still exists throughout the United States of Socialist America. I am reminded of the 'political' officer on the submarine, Red October, in the great movie, The Hunt for Red October, when I imagine Obama's neon green helmeted 'political' officer in every shop, bakery, and shoe store throughout America. Is this the 'change' you voted for? Easily 54, 56, or 58 million Americans voted AGAINST this change and I'd bet that most of the folks who voted for Barack Hussein Obama did not vote for "closed shops" or socialism with a capital 'S' but here we have it none the less. Nikita Kruschev pounded his shoe on a table and said we would be destroyed from within. And now we have a president who appears to intend to dismantle the United States industry by industry. Welcome to 1984: freedom bad; enslavement good. The article is named: U.S. seeks expanded power to seize firms. I believe the title is incorrect and should read 'Obama to seize any financial (fill in the blank) firm at will.' We are experiencing no less than the Obama Administration running heavy-booted and rough shod over what were once free Americans able to conduct business. First they came for the banks, but because I was not a banker, I did not stand up and fight... You know the rest.

America: defenseless on our borders

One of the highest aspects of the "oath of office" taken by our president and by our elected officials is to protect the United States from enemies foreign and domestic. So far, we, the people, are met with one distraction after another for the purpose of keeping our borders open, our eyes off of the growing power of the drug cartels along our border and within our nation's porous borders. Why? To give our federal government more power over law abiding citizens whenever they - the elected leaders - choose to use the power they have. We, the people, are sitting ducks for drunk driving illegal aliens from Mexico, for the slave trade carried on in our midst, for the growing strength of the South American drug cartels being allowed to flourish within our borders. As one example, North Carolina might as well be annexed by Mexico; it has certainly been taken over by illegals. And how many sanctuary cities do we have where federal laws against illegals are not upheld? Virginia Beach is a sanctuary city and it also has a Mexican consulate office. San Francisco is a sanctuary city but that is no surprise. They elect Nancy Pelosi. So, while AIG and Citigroup - practicing Sharia Finance - are being bailed out by US taxpayer dollars and the bonuses are being played as great distractions, our president for every day that goes by and he does not militarize our southern border against the illegals and the drug cartels is leading us closer and closer to chaos and to martial law. I cannot believe we have yet again another president who will not defend this nation and her people from invasion and from drug cartels. Must we become a nation divided like Columbia with a guerrilla war going on within our borders like the FARC (sp) in Columbia. Where is the president who will defend our nation? Where is the president or the elected Congress that will follow the U.S. Constitution where it states at least 5 times that Congress can call out our forces to defend our nation and our citizens? Or will Obama allow it to get so bad that we are forced to scream out for the very 'civilian national security force' that will put us, not our enemies, in shackles and chains. I cannot even believe our leaders want this for this great nation but so far their actions speak far more loudly than their words. Where will the defense of these United States come from? From our respective governors? Pray God someone - not a Marxist student of Saul Alinsky - will come to our defense so that we may live in a land of laws, in the land of the free and the home of the brave...

Obama: condom jobs going off-shore

Seems Mr. Obama is sending jobs off-shore after all. Another lie... Also seems there is no American company and there are no American workers who are safe in their American jobs. Even the workers at Alatech, a condom making company in Alabama, are now feeling the power of the mighty Obamessiah. This is probably Obama pay-back at Senator Jeff Sessions for fighting Obama's horrendous stimulus package. Petty but true - that's how politics works. Stimulus? U.S. to buy Chinese condoms, ending Alabama jobs! Here's the long and short of it. Condoms once made in Alabama will now be made by the Chinese. These condoms are destined for Africa to fight aids while leaving an American company and its employees out of work. Way to go, Team Obama. But my, my, it was fine campaign rhetoric about keeping jobs in America. Oh, I forgot, those jobs would be the ones for the Obama Young Pioneers. Silly me... Well, I'm off to read a bit more about Russia from 1825 to 1917, about Stalin, and about how the Tsars brought about their revolution. Oh, first thing Lenin did was take over control of the banks and the financial system in Russia. Sound familiar?

Obama: anti-American business or worse?

What the f**k? Where the h**l are we living? I mean - what country are we in, Venezuela? Sorry, Hugo. Have we just moved to the defunct former Soviet Union - the CCCP? Even they get it with an income tax rate of 13%. From Drudge, "Obama will call for increased oversight of 'executive pay at all banks, Wall Street firms and possibly other companies'..." Here's the news written by Stephen Labaton, Administration Seeks Increase in Oversight of Executive Pay. Just in case you are cheering, let me inform you that the only working Americans who suffer from more regulations are WE, the little guys. The idea of the Federal Government going in to regulate the salaries and benefits packages of the chief executives of major companies is CRAZY and probably unconstitutional - not that this administration cares about that. If I were on the Board of Directors of a major US company, you know what I'd be doing? Moving out of this country and taking my jobs with me. A 35% tax on corporate income; outrageous benefits that cost a fortune forced upon the corporation! Move - you betcha until the United States government/Congress can get a grip on its megalomanical delusions of Supreme Power. Sorry, that train left the station and the boat sailed when this 111 Congress passed the 1.3 TRILLION dollar (with interest) Stimulus - pay off your Democrat political supporters with tax dollars - Rip Off Bill signed by the President of Punishment. I don't know why the tobacco companies still operate here. They can grow tobacco elsewhere and make a fortune just selling to the Chinese; they don't need our market or our lawsuits. Class-envy has worked for the Democrat Party for some time now but that will change as more Americans see themselves being punished for trying to get ahead and see their industries folding because the cost of doing business here is just not good business. Glad Obama is on our side, right?

Obama: his 'drafted' Young Pioneers?

At first one has to wonder where Obama will get his "civilian national security force" that is to be stronger than our military and that will act on American soil against Americans. Brownshirts undercover. Could be ACORN and the "greens" under Van Jones. But now we have a clearer picture unfolding. Not 'volunteer' service but mandatory service with uniforms and territories. Big H/T to Michael Savage for his "Obama's plan to force kids into paramilitary domestic army exposed". This is the title of the link at Michael's site that sends you to an article by Bob Unruh at World Net Daily: House adopts plan for 'volunteer' corps. Think of Mao and his army of "youth" who destroyed all of the culture of China that they could and herded all dissenters into re-education/indoctrination camps; think of Cambodia's Khmer Rouge; think Lord of the Flies. And as Michael Savage says, to paraphrase, Obama's youth will be modeled after Russia's "Young Pioneers". We'll never know how many parents were turned in to the KGB (whatever their secret police were called at the time of the Black Marias and the thump on the door in the middle of the night, never to see daylight or their children again, turned in by their own children. Info on Young Pioneers and here. Here is a link to the actual vote on HR 1388 of the 111th Congress: HR 1388: To reauthorize and reform the national service law. The bill is here. And from the Heritage, Brian Brown has written an excellent article The Death of Public Service. We have to keep in mind that Obama is first and foremost a "community agitator", "community organizer", an avid student of Saul Alinsky and a avid participant in the Chicago political machine, so Obama's means of bringing about his goals would include a component of community-based and organized gangs. What would these "uniformed" gangs do? From what is available it seems to be "volunteer" but you know how peer pressure works on youth. If you are the odd-man out, not in uniform, soon you'll cave to be in a uniform with your friends attending special training at special indoctrination "camps." We can undo the damage Obama creates through lawful, non-violent means = vote Republican in 2010. Or vote another party other than Democrat, but we must all vote as one body. Our childrens' futures depend on it and it appears our very freedoms depend on Americans sticking together to fight socialism and to fight against an Imperial Presidency of our President of Punishment.

Eric Holder never met terrorists he didn't love

It seems to be true that Eric Holder, our Justice Department Csar has never met a terrorist or thief he didn't love. Anyone remember the 16 FALN terrorists he set free just before Hillary's election to the Senate in 2000 and the cuddly Marc Rich? Did Holder have a role in both of these hideous pardons? Read also: read here from book by Barbara Olson, killed in Islamic terrorists attacks of 9/11. According to "rumor" he plans to release Gitmo's worst terrorists into the United States: Guantanamo terrorists may be released into US. If you are a terrorist or a terrorist supporting nation which seems to include the US at the moment, you couldn't get a better ally than the Obama Administration. We give tax dollars to AIR and Citigroup, both practicing Sharia Law Finance so we support terrorist that way; regarding terrorists attacks upon us, we change the name, Islamic terrorist attack, to "man-made incidents". (Someone trying to be cute in a play on the words Weapons of Mass Destruction. No doubt Janet Napolitano our Secretary of Homeland destsruction. Maybe she wants to be invited for tea and some head-turning entertainment.) We are in the time-warp of 1984 by George Orwell. The Ministry of Justice is the Ministry of Injustice to law-abiding citizens; etc. Orwell got it right didn't he, even down to the language. Obama's true color seems to be shining through = RED for Socialist, Markist, CCCP. Of topic, but he sure seems to have brought Chicago politics to DC. Maybe the leftists on the Hill needed to be unleashed upon America so we could see how stark, raving mad and anti-the-US Constitution and the people these elected Lefists really are. Getting any idea yet? We give or plan to give $900,000,000.00 dollars to Hamas so they can buy more weapons and such to hurl at Israel; Obama first appoints Charles Freeman, an anti-semite and now Holder getting ready to release the worse-of-the-worst terrorists from Gitmo into the United States. Maybe the idea is to help Hugo Chavez and lighten his burden of training them on his soil so that they can get in across the border. Now, the United States Justice Department will just fly them in. And if they don't all land "guilty as Hell, free as a bird" (Bill Ayers), they'll go to a federal prison where they can recruit and train more terrorists.

Larwyn's list: Obama set to disarm US military

Reading and updates from Larwyn: Read 'em and pass 'em around. Did GATES take THE PLEDGE!!.... From Faustas: Coming, and going March 17th, 2009 At Memeorandum At Memeorandum: Coming: Russia announces rearmament plan [No surprise here; how much weakness does Obama have to show. But wait, he is a Marxist or misguided Socialist so his role could be to disarm the United States. Right?] From Faustas: Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has said Moscow will begin a comprehensive military rearmament from 2011. Mr Medvedev said the primary task would be to “increase the combat readiness of [Russia's] forces, first of all our strategic nuclear forces“. Going: And right on time: Gates readies big cuts in weapons Now, as the only Bush Cabinet member to remain under President Obama, Gates is preparing the most far-reaching changes in the Pentagon’s weapons portfolio since the end of the Cold War, according to aides. Two defense officials who were not authorized to speak publicly said Gates will announce up to a half-dozen major weapons cancellations later this month. Candidates include a new Navy destroyer, the Air Force’s F-22 fighter jet, and Army ground-combat vehicles, the officials said. More cuts are planned for later this year after a review that could lead to reductions in programs such as aircraft carriers and nuclear arms, the officials said. No further comment… for now. ~~~~~ And there's more: From Dave in Texas: Defense Sec. Gates Ready to Announce Weapons Cuts Because Lord knows here , we wouldn't want to create or save any jobs in an industry that actually employs Americans, what with this whole recession thingy going on. Thank goodness Secretary Gates is marshalling all his credibility, getting ready to take on the apparently very difficult job of helping Obama overcome criticism. As a former CIA director with strong Republican credentials, Gates is prepared to use his credibility to help Obama overcome the expected outcry from conservatives. And after a lifetime in the national security arena, working in eight administrations, the 65-year-old Gates is also ready to counter the defense companies and throngs of retired generals and other lobbyists who are gearing up to protect their pet projects. Tough job for a tough guy. For a palate cleanser, how about a little war porn, for old times sake? I don't even know what the hell this is. But I want one.

In the states, I've wanted all Christian women to dress in black burqas when they go out of the house every day for a month including to church on Sundays - not as a joke but to demonstrate the slavery under which many Muslim women live. But I digress... The Organization of Islamic Congerence focuses among other things on "global blasphemy" designed to end free speech and even the most innocuous discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of Islam as an ideology much like the discussions many of us had when we took Comparative Literature or Comparative Religion classes. In these classes we studied about the tenets of various "religions" and openly discussed the strengths, weaknesses, differences, and similarities. I am struck, for example, that Catholics, Jews, and Muslims ALL use some form of beads during some religious ritualistic aspects of their "worship." Is that a criticism or an observation? Our recent presidents have pointed out time and again that our beef is not with the Muslim people or with Islam but with the Islamic terrorists. We need to come to terms that their beef is with us, with our freedoms, and with our very existence - no apologies. ~~~~~ The Knock at the Door - from The American Thinker - So these are to be Obama's Brown Shirts? Go to the OFFCIAL WEBSITE: http://my.barackobama.com/page/content/pledgeproject Take the pledge???

Your first name, city/state, and optional personal message will appear publicly in a powerful display of support for our agenda. Pledge isn't even to support A president or one's country, it's to SUPPORT THE WON!!  So all should be concerned about..... The Knock on the Door by Lona Manning A sitting President of the United States is "organizing a political organization loyal to him, bound by a pledge, outside the government and existing party apparatus. The historical precedents are ominous." What is so ominous about an organization? Americans, Alexis de Tocqueville famously observed ,"constantly form associations.... If it is proposed to inculcate some truth or to foster some feeling by the encouragement of a great example, they form a society." Certainly, thousands of organizations seek to influence the political debate. There's Newt Gingrich's American Solutions or the left-wing People for the American Way , for instance. Political parties are another example of an association, of course. Before, during and after political campaigns, the Democrats and Republicans promote their agendas. As legal entities, they have their own constitutions, their rules of business, their chairmen and officers. They have to be accountable to both the government and their members. But there is a new organization on the political scene -- Organizing for American announced by President Barack Obama in late January but officially unfurled last weekend. Obama describes OFA as a "grass-roots movement" but OFA is a "project" of the Democratic Party of America. [And it sounds to Beach Girl as more of Obama the community agitator agitating Americans and set upon destroying our free market capitalist system.] As Politico reported here, OFA will take the 10 million person database built up by the Obama campaign "to mobilize support for the president's legislative agenda." A visit to the OFA website reveals that supporters are not simply asked to sign up, they are asked to take a pledge. A pledge to support -- not the flag, not the constitution, not the country, not even the Democratic party, but Obama and his "bold plan." OFA does not use the Democratic Party logo but the "O"-shaped logo of the Obama campaign in which the red white and blue of the flag are abstracted to soft pastel colors. (Celebrities like Ashton Kuchner and Demi Moore did not wait until the official launch to "pledge to be of service here " to Barack Obama, of course.) You will not find any mention of OFA`s governing structure, their budget, their bylaws, or their officers at the OFA website. Donations to the website go to the DNC, but OFA is managed out of the White House. If you click on the comments button, you are taken to a link to the White House email. Those who take the pledge are asked to "talk with people about the President's plan" and to "ask them to sign their names to the pledge" in support of Obama's policies. So we have a Movement -- this is their term, not mine -- organized by, and loyal to, a sitting President. Pledge canvassers, armed with your name, will ask you to pledge loyalty to the President too. A president whose term has already become a permanent campaign, here, is signing up ground forces in a mass organization pledged to personal loyalty to their Leader. Does anyone know of any historical precedents for this in the United States? Did Mitch Stewart, youthful director of OFA, who asks Obama's acolytes to organize "neighborhood by neighborhood" study anything at school about Mao's "Red Guards? How about Fidel Castro's "widespread system of neighborhood informers? Or Hugo Chavez's use of "neighborhood committees"? Did Stewart learn anything about democracy at all? Do any of Obama's pledged servants understand why a sitting president has no business creating and deploying his own supporters to help organize their neighbors?  Keep in mind that these acolytes have renounced any thought of questioning the actual policies of the maximum leader. Whatever he says, they are for it. They have given their word. And they are coming to have a talk with you. As Thomas Lifson wrote here: "This is not the way a democracy is supposed to operate." EXPERIENCED DOOR KNOCKERS..... Posted by JammieWearingFool @ 6:47 PM Great Idea! Let's Involve ACORN in the Census here The Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now signed on as a national partner with the U.S. Census Bureau in February 2009 to assist with the recruitment of the 1.4 million temporary workers needed to go door-to-door to count every person in the United States -- currently believed to be more than 306 million people. A U.S. Census "sell sheet," an advertisement used to recruit national partners, says partnerships with groups like ACORN "play an important role in making the 2010 Census successful," including by "help[ing] recruit census workers." The bureau is currently employing help from more than 250 national partners, including TARGET and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), to assist in the hiring effort. But ACORN's partnership with the 2010 Census is worrisome to lawmakers who say past allegations of fraud should raise concerns about the organization. "It's a concern, especially when you look at all the different charges of voter fraud. And it's not just the lawmakers' concern. It should be the concern of every citizen in the country," Rep. Lynn A. Westmoreland, R-Ga., vice ranking member of the subcommittee for the U.S. Census, told FOXNews.com. "We want an enumeration. We don't want to have any false numbers." ACORN, which claims to be a non-partisan grassroots community organization of low- and moderate-income people, came under fire in 2007 when Washington State filed felony charges against several paid ACORN employees and supervisors for more than 1,700 fraudulent voter registrations. In March 2008, an ACORN worker in Pennsylvania was sentenced for making 29 phony voter registration forms. The group's activities were frequently questioned in the 2008 presidential election.

Geert Wilders and Bat Ye'or at Tundra Tabloids

A must-read post at Tundra Tabloids about Geert Wilders: Bat Ye'or defends Geert Wilders: "Does Defending Western Values Constitute 'Inciting Hatred'.....?" No, in a word, and we better start defending the West PDQ and as Najistani suggests with mocking humor. In the states, I've wanted all Christian women to dress in black burqas when they go out of the house every day for a month including to church on Sundays - not as a joke but to demonstrate the slavery under which many Muslim women live. But I digress... And important post with must-read comments from Najistani. As Najistani points out better than I can, the West must point out the inconsistencies of Islam that make aspects humourous. In America, we all had a sense of humor at one time and laughed at ourselves. That was one of our greatest internal strengths because we could laugh at our idiosyncracies and know that behind it all we were a strong people. The old TV shows like All in the Family and Chico and the Man come to mind to name two. But Najistani is not talking about that kind of laughter. She is talking about aspects that make some behaviors into "laughing stock" behavior. I am always somewhat shocked when men seeming to be brave beat their chests, hide behind head scarfs, and chant as they behead a defenseless man in an orange jumpsuit, his hands tied behind his back - left screaming for his life. That takes brave men indeed to do such cowardly acts. Threatening, certainly, but speed up the tape and they look like - well, you know what they look like. Cowards hiding their faces during the time of their seemingly greatest act of cowardice. Primitive and adolescent, no manners and no culture. Certainly hoods over their heads so that they wouldn't recognize each other in prison could not have been much of an insult after hiding behind scarfs. We have to understand that Islamic leaders have studied us and what we see as our strengths, they have defined as weaknesses and they are carving away at our strengths, turning them into weaknesses that they, the Islamic leaders, can and do exploit. The exploitation rests upon the 'teachings' of Mohammed as having come from Allah who, at the time of his elevation to a higher ranking god, was really just a lesser god among several hundred gods. The Organization of Islamic Congerence focuses among other things on "global blasphemy" designed to end free speech and even the most innocuous discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of Islam as an ideology much like the discussions many of us had when we took Comparative Literature or Comparative Religion classes. In these classes we studied about the tenets of various "religions" and openly discussed the strengths, weaknesses, differences, and similarities. I am struck, for example, that Catholics, Jews, and Muslims ALL use some form of beads during some religious ritualistic aspects of their "worship." Is that a criticism or an observation? Our recent presidents have pointed out time and again that our beef is not with the Muslim people or with Islam but with the Islamic terrorists. We need to come to terms that their beef is with us, with our freedoms, and with our very existence - no apologies.

Geert Wilders to British Parliament if Britain had free speech

The following is just a link to the speech that Geert Wilders had prepared to give to the British Parliament if the British still had free speech: The House of Lords Speech: What Wilders would have said if Britain allowed Free Speech. Forgive the advertizements; this is from the Brussels Journal after all. While radical Islamic terrorist leaders are invited into Britain and even invited to speak before the Lords and Ladies, a free man, elected in his own country, was banned from England. As Wilders points out, he did not make the film, Fitna; it was made for him as all quotations were taken from the Koran. Shame on Britain but I must be careful because America's current leadership is not far behind: American Leftists and Islamists have same goals for US!. When will we become level headed again and understand that a man sworn to kill you cannot and will not be won over by money or a glass of tea?

Obama: president of punishment attacks Veterans!

Mr. Obama is the unsustainable Tsar whom we cannot financially afford. Is this the "change" our nation's people voted for? Well, it is true. Mr. Obama wants to force Veterans to pay for their own medical treatment of injuries incurred during service-connected efforts as a military service person, presumably from their "private" insurance plans. Only one tiny problem here, well several. Many veterans do not have "private" health insurance because they cannot work either because of physical disabilities caused by their wounds and/or psychological traumas sustained in combat which are no less debilitating than physical wounds. Obama first attacks Christians and Jews - no deduction for charitable giving, or for tithes and offerings given to one's church. Mosques will probably not meet the criteria as "charitable" giving because Islam is not a religion as generally understood within Western Civilization. And of course plans to remove our deductions for home mortgages and perhaps even the deduction for property taxes we pay on homes we own are in the works. Is Obama nuts? Or does he know his ratings are dropping like a rock? Now Obama attacks our veterans. He has no shame; and, never having served our nation in any capacity other than as a community agitator paid for by grants or federal funds or minimally as a US Senator, he spits on our VETERANS. Obama is the "president" of punishment: punishment of non-Hispanic white folks; punishment of veterans by making them pay the medical costs associated with "service connected" wounds and injuries (part of their contractual agreement with the government when they signed up to serve the nation). Obama is a liar and he deserves what he gets: a Republican Congress and Senate which is veto-proof in 2010. Veterans are going to be required to pay for the health care that is necessitated as a result of war injuries, service-connected injuries that our veterans sustained serving our nation and the cause of liberty and freedom. Any Congressman or Senator who supports this insanity of Tsar Obama should be booted out of Congress on his butt! Ooh rah! Veterans - let's get those Republicans in line and get them back in office. They have been punished and know the pain and agony of their wayward ways from 2000 to 2006. Problem is WE, the people, are paying the price for what is looking more and more like a questionable decision. Within our democratic republic, we have legal, non-violent ways to bring about change. It is called elections - so in 2010, let's boot the Liberal Left ELITES out on their ears! Psst! AIG and such are distractions, my friends, as our veterans get "screwed" by the "president" who said in his address to congress that he would ensure that our veterans received more in benefits/VA health care. Keep in mind also that AIG is a global "business" and much of our tax dollars are goind to AIG to fund business conducted through AIG in Islamic Republics - the same folks who set the roadside IEDs that injured and killed many of our service men and women. Obama's support of Sharia Law and radical Islamic causes - such as world domination and the overthrow of our capitalist system - over our men and women is becoming more clear day by day. He can't help himself; he was reared by a radical Marxist mom and attended mosque and studied the Koran as a Muslim child from ages 6 through 10 with a very radical, anti-American mon/stepfather when he lived in Indonesia. Associated posts: excellent post... I believe the bastards stepped in it now Yes, I (Rick) wrote bastard, to the chagrin and disappointment of Mrs. BH, but this is just too damned much The American Legion strongly opposed to president's plan to charge wounded heroes for treatment. Obama mulls over making vets pay for service connected injuries (title is paraphrased)

Obama lied to Veterans pre-election?

"Liars to the right of me; liars to the left of me. Liars all around me!" What Obama said in his "address to Congress" about increasing our veterans' benefits is not what he is saying now. Obama is a liar; he only knew Bill Ayers in the neighborhood. That is what comes to mind when one reads of another lie from President Obama - this one to our Veterans. I actually heard Him say that He intended to increase services to Veterans, not this. I never heard Him say He planned to charge veterans for services they receive at our VA hospitals or to charge them for medical care they receive for service connected injuries. Is he nuts or just looking to rape America's fighting men and women? According to The American Legion, President Obama plans to "bill" a veteran or a veteran's insurance company (if he has one) for services received at VA hospitals in connections with "service connected disabilities." It could be worse than this. So, chalk up another lie from our Commander-in-Chief. Here is the news report: The American Legion strongly opposed to president's plan to charge wounded heroes for treatment. Cna you believe this? Obama wants to destroy our free market capitalist system and now he wants to weaken our military by taking away a "promised" benefit from service and sacrifice rendered to those who go and risk life, limb, and sound mind to fight for our freedoms. Does Obama want to destroy our military too by making service so unacceptable that no one would volunteer?

Sharia Law Update from Common Cents

As we know, Sharia Law in all of its many forms and guises is on the march in naive Western countries trying so very hard to be oh, so tolerant and ever so multicultural. Here is a post from Common Cents, a blog that is new to me: Sharia Law Update. We in the West, especially the United States, have difficulty dealing with Islam's Sharia Law. For one thing, in Islam there is no separation of "church and state", a bedrock principle of our republic. Islam is the STATE. We are stepped in laws that try to be fair and these laws are easily used against us because the goal of Islamic leaders - spoken from their own mouths - is to put Islam in a position to dominate the United States and the world. Largely due to the EU, they are having their way with what was once known as Western Civilization in Europe. A friend's daughter - who had once lived in Paris - has just returned from visiting Paris and she says the original Parisians have moved out turning the City of Light over to the Muslims by and large. England is acting like an Islamic Republic in deeds if not in name and Italy is in a mess according to the words of the late and most wonderful Oriana Fallaci, (Sept. 15, 2006) may she rest in peace. She had the courage and the ability to put words to paper. She spat upon the Islamists who flew into our Twin Towers like the cowards that they were taking innocent men, women, and children with them. Today, we cannot call them "enemy combatants", certainly not "terrorists", and in every step we show them weakness. Well, we are not weak - not at our core - our "elected" Leftist elite may well be weak like Neville Chamberlain but we are not. If you have time, check out Common Cents, one more voice in this war that has been forced upon us; one more voice fighting for the ideals and glories of Western Civilization.

Geert Wilders: International Ban on "hate speech" laws needed

The following may be "old" news to some but this news NEVER gets old and is pertinent and deserves our attention daily. The information is exactly as it has come to me. If you notice the "hate speech" laws and/or resolutions passed in Western nations are 100% designed to revere Islam and to denegrate, fine, and perhaps imprison anyone who speaks out against the policies of "financial" Islam, "political" Islam, "terrorist" Islam (better known under Obama as "extremists" without the use of radical, fundamentalist, or Islamic or even the more universally agreed term, "Islamists" or God-forbid, radical Islamic terrorists. Keep in mind that for the likes of Rosie O'Donnell - who made her fame and fortune from the hard-earned money of the Christians in our country whom she calls "extremists." To the matter at hand, it is not "hate speech" laws we need but rather a BAN on all censorship under the guise of "hate speech" laws. The Islamist terrorists sworn to kill us or bring us into submission will follow no laws to curtail "hate speech" and will only use such laws to intimidate the rest of us. We need freedom of speech - worldwide. The following is a press release from the Center for Security Policy about the Dutch Parliamentarian Geert Wilder and his film, Fitna. Friday, February 27, 2009 Geert Wilders: The World Needs an International First Amendment and a Ban on All 'Hate Speech' Laws; Keynotes Center-sponsored Press Conference FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE For more information, contact Lee Cohen lcohen@securefreedom.org Washington, DC: Dutch Parliamentarian Geert Wilders, founder and floor leader of the Freedom Party (PVV), and member of the Board of Advisors of the International Free Press Society (IFPS), recounted today before a packed audience in Washington's National Press Club the recent, alarming attacks on free speech worldwide - including legal actions and death threats to which he and other political leaders and journalists have lately been exposed. Notably, Mr Wilders is being prosecuted in his own county because of reaction to his film "Fitna," and his remarks challenging the contention that Islam is a "religion of peace." Attendees at the press conference co-sponsored by the Center for Security Policy and the International Free Press Society had an opportunity to view "Fitna" in its entirety and to engage in a lively question and answer session with Mr. Wilders. The film features quotations from the Koran, documentary footage of Islamic leaders inciting violence (jihad) based on those quotations, and documentary footage of the results: deaths of innocent civilians and destruction of property in various Western nations. [I would also add that the film documents heinous treatment of women.] The film can be viewed here. here. Highlights of Mr. Wilders' remarks (a copy of his entire statement may obtained here and included the following:
The real question is: will free speech be put behind bars? And the larger question for the West is: will we leave Europe's children the values of Rome, Athens and Jerusalem, or the values of Mecca Teheran, and Gaza? Hate speech will always be used against the people defending the West-in order to please and appease Muslims. They can say whatever they want: throw gays from apartment buildings, kill the Jews, slaughter the infidel, destroy Israel, jihad against the West. Whatever their book tells them. ...My prosecution is a full-fledged attack by the Left on freedom of speech in order to please Muslims. I propose the withdrawal of all hate speech legislation in Europe....In Europe, we should defend freedom of speech like Americans do....Millions think liberty is precious. That democracy is better than Shariah....there is no stronger power than the force of free men fighting for the great cause of liberty.
In welcoming Mr. Wilders to America, Frank Gaffney, President of the Center for Security Policy, observed that the threats he faces are actually threats to all of us. They arise from the theo-political-legal program authoritative Islam calls "Shariah": Mr. Gaffney observed that:
The insinuation of Shariah legal codes and practices into Free World societies includes the effort to impose Shariah blasphemy, slander and libel laws in the West. According to Shariah, it is impermissible to engage in speech or writings that ‘defame' Islam or otherwise offend its followers. We must oppose all these efforts. [This means literally to even discuss Islam or any of the many parts of Islam and the adverse impact they have on our culture and our Western civilization. For us to even discuss Islam is offensive and therein lies the problem with "free speech." Islamists are working to END free speech throughout all Western cultures/nations.]
Diana West, the syndicated columnist and best-selling author who serves as Vice President of the International Free Press Society said: The ideal speech protections lie in the spirit of the American First Amendment. While Mr. Wilders would clearly live and breathe more easily with such speech protections, it is important for all of us who are here today to witness him speak to note, that even under existing legal constraints, governmental efforts to further... Lars Hedegaard, President of the International Free Press Society, introduced Wilders and outlined the IFPS 2009 campaign to ban hate speech laws and to work for an "International First Amendment." Mr. Hedegaard said:
The hate speech and blasphemy laws that are now common in many European countries lack clarity as to precisely what they aim to criminalize. Recent experience with their implementation further shows that they are unequally applied. This state of affairs is intolerable and the IFPS must therefore demand that all such laws be repealed. The way to deal with controversial, offensive or even hateful statements-unless they are directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action-is to expose them to public debate and criticism. [I would submit to you that the lack of clarity is precisely what the supporters of these laws want - chaos and confusion.]
A video of the entire press conference will be available shortly at the Center for Security Policy's website, here. In the News: Obama expected to set Iraq pullout for August 2010 India to construct aircraft carrier: Navy Progress in Baghdad continues on all fronts, Commander reports Obama announces more key defense appointments Iraqi army struggles to master logistics US-China resume military ties, top officer says Plans to close US airbase threaten military supply route to Afghanistan US ready to respond to N.

If you are interested in their briefings, you may go to their website and link to receive news letters, briefings, and such other material that will help keep you informed. There have been two waves where Islamic leaders have crested the waves and driven their people and their Sharia Law upon the shores and into the heartland of Western Civilization. We are now living through the third such assault. The ground has been tilled and we have been softened up by our own far-left and the morons pounding the drum for "political correctness" in speech and behavior of Western civilized man. This "political correctness" which seems to have its early roots in nineteenth century Russia is but censorship. "Political correctness" is a soft term for censorship and for guarding your words. Hush, hush... Can't speak the truth. Can't even discuss contraversial ideologies. And you certainly CANNOT produce a film using actual quotations from a Qur'an and actual video footage of the most heinous acts being commited upon Muslim women. All laws, national and international, that threaten free speech behind the banner of "hate speech" must be banned. Even dear Maxine Waters, that sterling example of elected leadership, threatened that LA would be burned to the ground if O.J. Simpson were convicted of killing Ron Goldman and nearly beheading Nicole Brown Simpson, the mother of his children. Congressman Waters spoke inciting citizens to riot, her words held the justice system hostage, and yet she remained free and at large to intimidate the citizens and to threaten not only their stores, there homes, but also their lives. Her words were "hate speech" but "hate speech" laws are only designed to censor and intimidate people from speaking the truth and from having open discussions about the threats we face from those who really do want to kill us. Can anyone remember the screams of Nick Berg?
