No, to programs that grow the government

No, to programs that take away freedoms

Don’t comment back-what about Bush? What about the Republicans? FYI I distrust them all. From the New World Order Bushes to the They-lied-to-me-Grandad-RINO McCain. From the, ‘’depends on what the definition of Yes is,” Clinton, to Spitz, to Rangel, to the rest of the perverts, tax evaders, and the, I’m-going-to-die-in-office politicians that have wreaked havoc on our nation just so they could to keep their sorry behinds in office.

Enough is enough is enough already.

term limits, and balanced budgets baby!!!

A.D.D. moment, someone actually was naïve enough to say that our elections were good enough term limits. …when 98% of incumbents get reelected? No! We need a way to get rid of them, they gain too much financial backing by the favors they do for all the money interests to be on a level playing field with the challengers.

The sad thing is, many people buy into the notion that, we need elected officials in office that have experience and can bring the funding home. Think about that. Many have bought into and espouse the big government progressive philosophy that the Federal Government should be spending their money and buying clout in the states. It wasn’t meant to be that way.

I can just hear some of you saying, Well, let’s do away with the interstate system and the post office,  and the, and the and the… Would you like that, they pontificate with pride.

It’s a red herring: holding up one thought while you hide what the real argument is about; the real argument would be big government is not in our freedoms best interest, wielding too much power, Lording over the states, usurping the states responsibility. It’s in the constitution as well. You know theamendment that says the feds should… Well, here it is verbatim. “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.”

Are you telling me, that those old fuddy duddies who wrote the constitution foresaw the Fed trying to take over responsibilities that maybe it shouldn’t be worrying about? Imagine that -absolute power corrupts absolutely theory-.

Ooh “foresaw”, that’s like a “religious term. Watch out!!! Religious fanatic alert.

In their wisdom and guidance from on high, as many of them believed and voiced, they wisely were aware of contingencies that could occur in the republic due to greed, corruptness, immorality etc.

And thus we have the tenth amendment

NOW BACK TO WHAT I WAS THINKING-TERM LIMITS AND

My solution :  MAKE TERM LIMITS A REALITY. AND—

FOR ELECTIONS:

• no private money. Zero! Nada!
• Public funded campaigns with a certain dollar cap.
• No loopholes.
• No commercials
• Televised Debates
• A website where responsible Americans could go to learn about the candidates’ stands on issues and the voting record or bio of what they have done in their lives.
• No campaign staff hoards allowed
• No organized groups campaigning for the candidates
• No get out the vote groups bussing people in to polls, even paying people to vote

If we did things like this, this is not a complete list by any means, people would have to want to get involved in order to find out about the candidates. They would have to research. The clueless and uneducated, wouldn’t get involved, as much, because it would require an effort.

Contrary to what many believe, voting is a privilege. You should be willing to make an effort to do it. And if you don’t care enough to find out about a candidate, then I hope you stay home and don’t vote! Oooooooooh, I am such a hater.

Sure, sure people would be disenfranchised. Some people vote for those who will give them things duh. They need to be left out.

Voting is to put people in office that will: Provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, as outlined in the constitution not what the progressives interpret the constitution to mean.  They need to do what’s good for the country, not what’s good for themselves!

Remember, JFK’s words?

Yes, it should be in English. That’s our language. Just like Christianity is the religion the country was founded on. It’s elementary my dear citizen. Ooooh, more hate.

We’ll tackle borders language and culture tomorrow.

It’ s time to go after the perpetrators of GLOBAL WARMING Dems and Repubs alike.. I want them in jail and broke for the fraud they have subverted the country with. Madoff was a small time fraud compared to these guys. We know part of them Michael Mann for his Hockey Stick graph the IPCC for their purposeful deceit Let’s go after them. I am sure they will talk once we waterboard em!!! oops did I say that outloud?

Any politician with guts enough to do this should be put at the front of the line for  presidential candidate.

We need to demand from our representatives hearings on the issue.

Here is a tidbit that hits it right on the nose. The Article sums up my frustration on the issue.

“If describing the acolytes and hucksters of global warming as “criminals” seems harsh, ask yourself how this situation would be treated if the miscreants had been operating within the private sector. Imagine a group of corporations conspiring to create an imaginary crisis, using junk science and false advertising, with their original raw data safely shredded. Imagine these greedy capitalists selling fantastically expensive “solutions” to the problem they manufactured, and demanding control over scores of other industries in the bargain. Picture an advertising campaign reaching into movies, books, music, and “news” programs. Imagine corporate representatives invading schools to indoctrinate children from an early age, and absolutely saturating children’s literature and television with slogans and carefully constructed horror stories about how the world will suffer, if their parents don’t play ball and start forking over money and liberties to the conglomerate.

Now imagine a hacked server disgorging emails between officers and technicians of these corporations, worded exactly the same as the East Anglia Climate Research Unit messages, and ask yourself how long it would take for the first Senate subcommittees to issue subpoenas, the first crisis news specials to pre-empt prime-time programming, or the first grand juries to convene”.

For the blinded readers that think that I am a, died in the wool, Republican, here’s a little cannon fodder for you.

But alas and alack, the incompetence and hypocrisy of the Republicans, for the last eight years, they left their supporters disillusioned and the opposition overly wary. Republicans. You don’t deserve to be trusted any more than the liberals. In fact, you are worse than the liberals. You espoused conservative values, yet went a whoring with the power you wielded.

Far better to not know correct principles and be found in opposition to right than to understand the right and blatantly slap  truth in the face, while you prostrate yourself in front of every dollar bill that wants to buy you.

This disillusionment is what threw Hutchison out of office in Texas. Let’s pray that the seething angst still smolders all the way to November. We may get rid of all these “politicians’ and give the legislative houses back to the people to serve their country for a time. At least it will be a new set of “the people”.

Now we’re getting the real story of the tarp legislation. Here’s an example: Higher education in Missouri lamentsa 5.2% cut, because now they wonder what will happen when the stimulus money runs out next year.

Analyze that for a moment. Let that ferment in your brain. What did they say? They fear when tarp runs out, because  they don’t know what they will do.

So, are you saying that, actually, the stimulus didn’t stimulate. Sure, it saved some jobs. How could you give away billions upon billions and not give somebody some work. That’s not the problem. It may have saved a few jobs for a year, but then the money will be gone, without real growth from industry, Industry was not stimulated. the income streams coming into the schools will not have increased, and the government will have to spend the same amount on another stimulus to keep it going.You saw 15 billion dollars more in a “jobs ” bill this last week.

I think of TARP as, buying consumables on your credit card. When you eat the food its gone, but the bill still remains and you still have to go buy more food. It’s a double whammy.

I have asked the question all along, what will happen when the stimulus money is gone? Will the government go back to spending what it did pre-stimulus or will we need to spend the same amount just to keep the appearance of money flowing and the appearance of the economic stabilization façade standing upright?

You have been duped, those of you who believed that TARP was really to “help” the economy, “stimulate” the economy. TARP and the policies of the last two years of bailouts, handouts, and out and out bribes is the biggest expansion of government in our history. It was not meant to stimulate the economy. It was to grow government, plain and simple.

And now the organizations that got the money, look forward and go, “holy crap, we are worse off than we were before”.

Now what America. Trillions more debt, no new jobs, and millions people that want to keep the government giving going, so they can keep their jobs.

What will be the response of the Obama Administration next year? Won’t they have to give out billions more in stimulus to keep the boat with the holes afloat. Where will the money come from?

What is it going to take for the common to stand up and put a stop to the minority dictating policy in this country, claiming that evil is good and good is evil, trampling under foot the constitution and the Christian faith?

Will it take anarchy before the people of God stand up and denounce with vigor and vim the progressive religion? Will it take the destruction of the United States, A massive depression, millions more people without jobs and housing, no food on the grocery shelves, no electricity because you can’t afford it, the de-development of our civilization and its return to an agrarian society in order to advance the environmentalist religious fanaticism. What exactly will it take? When will you join the fight for the survival of the Democratic Republic, which is the United States of America?

The left will do anything to get its way for example: http://blog.heritage.org/2009/10/22/morning-bell-a-whole-new-health-care-ball-game/ this is a report on yesterdays little shell game the progressives tried to play. They tried to hide about ¼ of the expense of Obamacare from the public by putting it in another bill.

We must call all our legislators and voice our opposition to this massive power grab by the progressives. This is a move toward gaining control of every portion of your life, from cradle to grave. If they can gain control of your health they can legislate on every facet of your life in order to appear fiscally responsible with your tax dollars. You can’t eat this. You can’t do that. You must do this. And according to obama himself, we’d have to discuss the issue if it were grandma; No, grandma doesn’t need that medicine, that operation, and/or that procedure.

Please don’t be naive enough to think that they won’t do this. They swear, up and down, that we are alarmists and are misleading the American people. When in fact they are simply fulfilling the Marxist Praxis http://www.discernment-ministries.org/TheAspenPaper.pdf

They truly are fulfilling the prophecy of the last days that evil will be called good and good evil as they bash the likes of Glenn Beck and Rush, and Michael Savage, and O’reilly, when they tell us we are clinging to our bibles and guns. When they dismiss the tea party goers and call them communists. When they tear babies apart and call it freedom of choice.

If these thoughts sound fanatical then I wish to admonish you to search your heart and the scriptures, even pray. We are in dire times and for the sake of the salvation of our brothers and sisters we cannot stand idly by and do nothing to bring the truth to light. For if we do nothing we will be held responsible for that which we did not do.

Stand with me. Raise your voice peaceably but with power and conviction. Right will prevail notwithstanding the destruction of the last days.

This portion of an article from The American Thinker strikes a cord in my heart and is our answer. Let it be in our hearts and on our minds, for the few must be vocal, not loud, not angry but consistent, wise, and sane. Please go read the rest of this and pass it on to any who fear the loss of our freedom, or to any who have this little feeling that something is terribly wrong concerning this radical Obama and his henchmen.

There’s a final “F,” the most formidable one, the one taking root and flourishing all across the country:  it’s faith.  Faith in a Higher Power or ourselves or the American system or its people.

The Trauma of Obama

By Robin of Berkeley

Ordinary citizens rising up, like a phoenix.  This awakening might prove to be Obama’s most enduring legacy.

The miracle of a soccer mom attending a protest for the very first time;  an elderly man bravely stepping up to the mike at a Town Hall;  strangers forming life long bonds at Tea Parties or online, at sites like American Thinker.  People like me snapping out of the leftist trance.

In time, the Trauma of Obama may be overshadowed by the Mock of Barack:  people speaking up, from Bozeman to Boise to Boston — and refusing to become one of Obama’s hench men or victims.

When I behold the courage and dignity of my fellow citizens, I recall a powerful Buddhist tale:

The cruelest, most violent Samurai in Japan decides he wants to become enlightened.  He bursts into the home of an esteemed Zen Master and demands that the Master teach him how to become enlightened.

The Zen Master looks deeply into his eyes and says, “No. You are a dirty, vicious Samurai.  I will not teach you.”

Enraged,  the Samurai yanks out his sword and places it right at the Zen Master’s neck.  He hollers, “Do you have any idea who I am?  I am the cruelest Samurai in the world.  I can cut your throat and not blink an eye.”

Without skipping a beat, the Master calmly responds, “Do you have any idea who I am?  I can let you slit my throat and not blink an eye.”

The Samurai falls to his knees, sobbing, overcome by the presence of a man mightier than his sword.

Those of us who are paying attention know the truth.  With our eyes and hearts and minds wide open, we see them; we’re on to them.

Emboldened by faith and righteous anger, we confront the Powers that Be.

Carrying our children’s future; sheltered by the strong arms of our forbearers; awash with grace; we speak in one thunderous voice.

We say,

“We know who you are.

“Do you have any idea who we are?”

(You may shoot me with your words,

You may cut me with your eyes,

You may kill me with your hatefulness,

But still, like air, I’ll rise.)

Throw the bums, all of them Republican and Democrat alike, out.

The America your great grandparents knew is disappearing, all under the guise of economical rebuilding. We must say no to watered down conservatism and democracy. We must say no to the secular humanism and reverse what has been done to the constitution from Woodrow Wilson to now.

We must demand:

1. First the repeal of the 16th and 17th amendments.

2. Then, we must demand a balanced budget amendment.

a. Americans want their government to live within a budget just like Joe and Jane public do. We must pass a balance budget amendment now!!! Never ever print money to pay bills. Never borrow money from another country. Float bonds or don’t do the projects.

3. After that is done, we must institute term limits for these power hungry politicians.

a. If the common man/woman who wants to serve this country and run for political office finds that the government is too hard too run, then government is too big and complicated to run, it surely is involved in things it shouldn’t be, and should shrink until it is simple enough for an individual with regular intelligence to run. The states should be taking care of their own situations. This is what was intended by our forefathers.

4. Cap spending on campaigns

a. Prohibit private donations.

b. Make all funds come from the public trough.

5. Get rid of lobbyists. Let each representative and senator have a research staff to get info on things to be voted on.

6. Drastically reduce social programs. Return to the constitution and get out of the business of saving everybody. Churches and families should be the lifeline for people in need.

7. Get rid of subsidies to American industries. Reverse the anti-capitalist decisions of President Obama.

8. Drill, drill, drill our own oil and gas and use our coal while incentivizing the green industries. The genius of freedom will solve the problem when you give it a reason. Do not tax the people creating jobs or they won’t create more jobs.

9. Government cannot create wealth it is a parasite using our money and has no product.

10. Prohibit earmarks of any kind. Vote on article per article.

AFTER WE HAVE CLEANED HOUSE, THINGS WE MUST DEMAND FROM OUR POLITICIANS

Maybe if you worked year round we could understand you getting a raise.

From this day forward, fly economy class and talk to the public while you’re flying to help keep the pulse of the common man.

Drive your own car to work. Pay for your own parking. Pay for your own tickets back and forth to your districts and states. It’s called living a normal life, which you have forgotten how to do.

When a senator or representative lies knowingly, in the next sentence they should resign. And if they don’t, turn it over to the police and call it fraud, which is what is being committed on us by these lowlifes.

I am not brilliant, but aren’t these the thoughts of millions upon millions of us.

OFF THE CUFF SLAP AT IGNORAMUSES:

One final note> All you young, ignorant sycophants who lined up behind Obama like you were going to a rock concert. It was Thomas Jefferson who said, a government that can give you everything has the power then to take it all away.

WHAT WE AS CITIZENS MUST DO

Voting is not enough anymore. We must become involved like the progressives have done. My Father always says we must fight anew the battle for freedom in every generation. Freedom is not free and at this moment in history is the time for each of us to engage in the battle. Obama is poised to change this country into something our founding fathers would not recognize and is doing it from within. The battle will rage on many fronts, from taking back our schools to taking back our industries from the state.

Read the constitution and the federalist papers and you will see that we are racing headlong into a progressive buzz saw the likes of which you haven’t seen since you got your butt whipped by an all powerful parent when you didn’t do what that parent said-in other words Tyranny

http://www.scribd.com/doc/11999254/The-Aspen-Institute-and-Marxist-Praxis NOT EXCITING BUT INCITEFUL.

Progressives have written the news-speak for the age (Orwell’s 1984). They have created a vocabulary that shuts off debate and demonizes those who have a different opinion than they do. If I don’t agree with their logical statements,  there is an attack on my personal integrity. It goes something like this:

What? You don’t want those huddled masses to be able to survive when they get here? You don’t want those that are here to be able to have a good life in the greatest country on the face of the earth? You must be a selfish hate monger. Maybe you are a racist, because, we all know that minorities don’t have the wealth of the Caucasian Americans.

And with that approach they have driven many of the thinking Americans into the corner where we sit confused and silent. Because, we do not want people to think that there is a possibility that those labels are correct. The problem is like Abraham Lincoln said, and I paraphrase, That which we believe in strongly and do nothing about, makes cowards of us.

When journalists and leaders spout that we are griping only because our president is black and not because he is a socialist, they are implementing a plan to quiet the orderly that they may go forward unabated. 

Here is my promise to you. If risking being called a radical is the result of my quest to search and admonish timeless, eternal truths, then so be it. I take my place among the radicals of the past who would not be silent while their communities and their nations were ravaged by tyrants of despotism. Will you rise with me and spend more time and effort espousing truth to the belligerent, arrogant leaders of our nation until they have returned in shame to their homes unable to harm us again for wwe have risen and spoken at the voters box and on every street corner that we will not go quietly into the dungeons of Socialism, Marxism, Communism etc.
