<u></u> </h2>
<br />
This administration's scandals just roll off the tongue at this point.<br />
<br />
--Obama told lie, after lie, after lie while attempting to sell ObamaCare to skeptical Americans,<br />
--The IRS was caught red-handed targeting and harassing conservative political opposition to Obama, <br />
--the betrayal of longtime American ally Hosni Mubarek in Egypt in favor of the terrorist Muslim Brotherhood,<br />
--the purposeful failure to protect the mission in Benghazi (after helping Al Qaeda elements in Libya to overthrow Muamar Qaddafi),<br />
--the subsequent clumsy LIES repeatedly told by Susan Rice in the next two weeks on the major networks and the Stalinist style arrest of an innocent filmmaker to cover their tracks,<br />
--spying on the Associated Press and the concocted criminal charges against Fox News reporter James Rosen to justify their Unconstitutional police state behavior,<br />
--repeated abuses of power by the EPA under Obama crony Lisa Jackson, and the subsequent cover up in the e-mails scandal,<br />
--Obama's failure to fire Eric Holder, who has repeatedly committed perjury in Congressional testimony in two separate scandals,<br />
--the ATF "Fast and Furious" scandal where the Administration purposefully armed Mexican drug cartels in an attempt to make as big a mess as they could on the border. U.S. Border Agents were killed and harmed in the ensuing violence; with American weapons!,<br />
--Kathleen Sebelius strong-arming companies for "donations." Some of the same companies that come under HHS purview! She would then use this ill-gotten money to promote Obamacare,<br />
--the Pigford Scandal started as an ill-advised (idiotic) Agriculture Dept. attempt to monetarily compensate black and female farmers who supposedly faced past discrimination based on race and gender. It turned into a gravy-train of theft and corruption by thousands of people who had NEVER been "discriminated" against,<br />
--the Obama Administration's steadfast refusal to prosecute members of the New Black Panther Party for obvious violations of the Voting Rights Act; for racial reasons,<br />
--tens of BILLIONS of taxpayer dollars going to failing "Green Energy" companies like Solyndra and Fiskar to name a few. GE is by far the biggest recipient of taxpayer loot. We used to have a simpler name for this criminal behavior: Money laundering!<br />
<br />
What does Obama deserve kudos for? Ordering the capture and kill of Osama bin Laden. Period. Rumor has it that his advisor Valerie Jarret forced his hand. Left to his own devices, he may have even passed on that golden opportunity? <br />
<br />
Here's the main point; even a destructive and misguided leftist (like Jimmy Carter or Woodrow Wilson) would occasionally do something good and useful for America if that were their honest intention. By sheer luck alone, they'd get something right.<br />
<br />
Barack Obama's six year record is one of near-perfect destruction! He's caused a staggering amount of economic ruin, 17 TRILLION dollars in debt (almost $150,000 per taxpayer), unemployment which is honestly above 12% when you consider the TRUE workforce participation rate, welfare dependency at all-time record levels, a foreign policy that's caused unheard of levels of hostility from long-time allies in addition to rampaging islamic jihad across the Arab world, and a systematic dismantling of America's cherished institutions here at home.<br />
<br />
On October 30, 2008 the newly elected Obama said <em><strong>"we are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America",</strong></em> and he's done so in a thoroughly lawless way that brings to mind a wrecking ball or demolition dynamite.<br />
<br />
We're truly past the point where Obama's motives and intentions can be seen as high-minded, laudatory, or beneficial; this guy's out to do harm!<br />
<br />

Suck my d--k, bro!!"</span></strong><br />
<br />
There were two of them standing on the concrete island during rush hour in south Jacksonville Beach. The bigger one turned to the shorter one, shouted something, and dashed with his skateboard in hand through a gap in traffic. The smaller one (picture Sean Penn in "<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">Fast Times at Ridgemont High"</span>) took his time, grabbed his skateboard and his sagging, over-sized shorts with his left hand, and loped casually into 45 MPH traffic. I had just enough time to honk quickly, and in response, the little son of a bitch defiantly flipped me the bird with his free hand as I locked up my brakes and skidded sideways to avoid turning the little maggot into a bloody pile of roadkill.<br />
<br />
I parked my truck in a blinding rage and followed these vermin into the parking lot, yelling at the little 16-18 year old punk. I was almost out of control. As I closed the distance, the hugely out-matched punk sneered, <em>"Are you talking to me? Suck my d---, bro!"</em><br />
<br />
As few as 6 or 7 years ago, I would be telling this story AFTER being bailed out of jail for assault and battery charges on a minor. As mad as I was, the charges may have been even worse if I'd given in to my blood lust. Maybe his minor status stopped me? I still don't know what kept me from beating him to a pulp right there on the spot. I would have been charged, prosecuted, and probably jailed, for a year or...five. Then the trial lawyers of the world would start litigating my house and business away to pay for the kid's plastic surgery.<br />
<br />
And why? For giving a smart-ass, semi-brain dead punk the serious attitude adjustment that he desperately needed. I doubt that this kid had ever been forced to deal with the consequences of his severely antisocial behavior. Ironically, if I had looked his way two seconds later than I did, I would have run over him with my Ford cargo van at 45 MPH, and the cars travelling right behind me would have finished him off. Witnesses--and there were a few--would have agreed that it was the kid's fault, and I would have walked away scot free, with a hellish new nightmare, after questioning.<br />
<br />
This CAN'T be the way that these sort of things have always been settled? Someone near and dear to me caught a child molester attempting to abduct a 6 year old boy (well known to him) in Syracuse, NY in the early 1950's. He administered a good dose of street justice right there on the spot, and later explained his actions to the judge. The judge understood and thanked him for his time, and his actions that day. They locked up the child molester, who happened to be a repeat offender pedophile. I couldn't tell you whether or not the judge followed the letter of the law that day, but we all know beyond a shadow of a doubt that he did the right thing. Your gut instincts tell you that much, guided by simple morality.<br />
<br />
<strong>I'm not advocating a return to a Medieval state of lawlessness, vigilantism, and lynch mobs, but I am wondering what the heck ever happened to common sense in America?!</strong> <br />
<br />
They could have imprisoned me and basically LIQUIDATED my business and assets for smacking around a delinquent who desperately needed a beating. <br />
<br />
Would you like some evidence of an increasingly depraved society? Just a few days ago, the Obama Administration lifted the ban on women in combat. As I grew up, us boys were taught to NEVER hit a girl; <em>"men don't hit women, we protect them"</em> my dad and uncles would tell me proudly. Most of them were proud veterans of WWII, Korea, and one was in Nam. It made perfect sense to me. Now, the Obama Administration has decided that protecting our women only extends to domestic violence calls. Now we'll expose American women to the enemy on the battlefield in front line units. We'll now let our women be maimed, dismembered, shot dead, or raped when captured. Is that acceptable in a civil society?<br />
<br />
I could easily spend three more days listing official and cultural stupidity and corruption run amuck, but your eyes would glaze over. Instead, think about some of the cultural topics that have been on the front burner recently; school teachers "sexting" middle schoolers, openly gay Boy Scout leaders, a Yale coed creating "artwork" out of aborted fetuses (it was approved), an American President laundering taxpayer money through "green energy" companies...and then honestly ask yourself:<br />
<br />

Is America becoming morally retarded?JINGOISThttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05767545065448290469noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210892043240981512.post-41468461140699374012012-11-11T10:34:00.000-08:002012-11-11T10:34:04.841-08:00The Real Lesson of Election Night 2012.<span class="userContent">Here's an honest lesson for the Republican Party that MUST be learned going forward. This was easily the most winnable general election of the last 50 years, and Romney and the GOP establishment LOST it! And the lesson, in a nutshell...<br /> <br /> <strong><span style="color: red;">**GOP moderates (RINOs) lose general elections to leftists!**</span></strong><br /> <br /> Barack Obama has been worse than incompetent, he's been an unmitigated national disaster, and was a sitting duck as incumbent presidents go.<br /> <br /> Mitt Romney got 3 MILLION fewer votes than the pathetic John McCain got in 2008, and 7 MILLION fewer than George W. Bush received in the 2004 election!! Allow those numbers to sink in...<br /> <br /> Republican, conservative, and libertarian voters DON'T need a ride to the polls on election day. They DON'T need a great campaign organization like Obama's. They DON'T need handy, multi-colored voter guides, or party goodies to make it out to vote.<br /> <br /> <strong>Republicans, conservatives, and libertarians need to be INSPIRED!!</strong> </span><br />
<span class="userContent">Our votes cannot be bought, they need to be EARNED! Moderate RINOs inspire NO one, and the vote totals illustrate that lesson loud and clear. If Romney had only matched McCain's numbers, he would have taken the popular vote, and maybe even the electoral college?<br /> <br /> For those of you focusing on demographics and seeking solace in the liberal media "race narrative", you're missing the red conservative elephant in the room.</span>JINGOISThttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05767545065448290469noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210892043240981512.post-23515531335866419022011-04-24T09:21:00.000-07:002011-04-24T09:27:37.255-07:00Obama Fiddles, While Gas Prices SOAR!Why is it that politicians TELL us what they intend to do, and somehow people REFUSE to believe them when they carry through with their plans?<br /><br />Barack Obama: <strong><em>"Under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket."</em></strong> (January 2008)<br /><br />He has said much the same about gas prices, wishing for<strong><em> 'a more gradual upward adjustment of prices'</em></strong> than we are currently experiencing.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HlTxGHn4sH4&feature;=related">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HlTxGHn4sH4&feature;=related</a><br /><br />Oil and gas are commodities. Supply and demand are the most important factors determining the pre-tax price of both. If the world oil supply increases marginally and demand increases faster, the price will go up in a commensurate fashion. That's the world's present situation. With the vast increase in demand coming from China and India, the price for a barrel of oil has been rising. So the oil companies are paying more for a barrel of oil. Demand is outpacing supply, at the same time that OPEC is holding on to crude oil reserves.<br /><br />There are two factors that affect the gasoline supply. Municipalities across America demand different blends starting in late spring and early summer to control smog and air pollution levels. Some refineries have to shut down and retool every year to produce these "boutique blends" of fuel. This interruption alone results in supply shortages and is made even WORSE by the fact that environmentalists have led the charge in blocking the construction of new refineries since the 1970's! This is a national security issue folks.<br /><br />The Obama administration is currently pushing policies that will dramatically increase the price of gas. Over a year ago Obama slapped a moratorium on all new deep water drilling, and then bottled up all applications for new drilling in the bureaucracy of the Interior Department. Not only did this adversely effect supply, but that threat of less supply of crude has resulted in speculation that also drives the price up, and makes us even MORE dependant on foreign oil sources. He has been found to be in contempt of court by Federal Judge Martin Feldman for illegally blocking new drilling in the Gulf.<br /><br />The Heritage Foundation summarizes it for us:<br /><a href="http://blog.heritage.org/2011/02/23/10-things-you-need-to-know-about-high-gas-prices-and-obama%E2%80%99s-oil-policy//">http://blog.heritage.org/2011/02/23/10-things-you-need-to-know-about-high-gas-prices-and-obama%E2%80%99s-oil-policy//</a><br /><br />Add to these supply interruptions the rampant inflation caused by runaway federal spending and printing of money, and you have the proverbial "perfect storm" for rising gas prices, and it was done ON PURPOSE!<br /><br />Competition is also a significant factor in gas prices and the one we consumers understand the best. That final 10 cents in the price of a gallon is the result of one station owner trying his best to beat the guy down the street. They don't make much on gas, the store uses it's gas to get you to buy beer, silly lighters, and Doritos! Competition keeps local prices as low as they can possibly be.<br /><br />So when politicians like Obama lie to you about the<span style="color:#660000;"> big, mean, greedy oil companies</span> “hosing” the consumer, just remember that the price of gas is determined by supply and demand, state and federal taxes, inflation, and local competition. Remember who those politicians are, and...

After all, no one in their right mind wants our infrastructure to crumble.<br /><br /><strong>Keep this in mind</strong>: We've YET to account for over two trillion dollars in spending in the last 2 years. Wouldn't it be nice to know the whereabouts of the national treasure before we agree to new spending?<br /><br />When the President says the word "INVESTMENT", he means more spending that our children will be forced to repay to the Chinese communists.

It's a magnificent treatise on the 28 fundamental beliefs of the founding fathers which have made possible more real progress over 200 years of American history than was made in the previous 5000 years of civilization.<br />Hence the title, "The 5000 Year Leap." From the National Center for Constitutional Studies:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.nccsstore.com/5000-Year-Leap-MP3-eBook/productinfo/5000YL/">http://www.nccsstore.com/5000-Year-Leap-MP3-eBook/productinfo/5000YL/</a><br /><br /><strong>Principle 1 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">The only reliable basis for sound government and just human relations is Natural Law.</span></strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><br /><br /></span>Natural law is God's law. There are certain laws which govern the entire universe, and just as Thomas Jefferson said in the Declaration of Independence, there are laws which govern in the affairs of men which are "the laws of nature and of nature's God."<br /><br /><strong>Principle 2 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">A free people cannot survive under a republican constitution unless they remain virtuous and morally strong.</span></strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><br /><br /></span>"Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters." - Benjamin Franklin<br /><br /><strong>Principle 3 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">The most promising method of securing a virtuous people is to elect virtuous leaders.</span></strong><br /><br />"Neither the wisest constitution nor the wisest laws will secure the liberty and happiness of a people whose manners are universally corrupt. He therefore is the truest friend to the liberty of his country who tries most to promote its virtue, and who ... will not suffer a man to be chosen into any office of power and trust who is not a wise and virtuous man." - Samuel Adams<br /><br /><strong>Principle 4 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">Without religion the government of a free people cannot be maintained.<br /><br /></span></strong>"Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports.... And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion." - George Washington<br /><br /><strong>Principle 5 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">All things were created by God, therefore upon him all mankind are equally dependent, and to him they are equally responsible .</span></strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><br /></span><br />The American Founding Fathers considered the existence of the Creator as the most fundamental premise underlying all self-evident truth. They felt a person who boasted he or she was an atheist had just simply failed to apply his or her divine capacity for reason and observation.<br /><br /><strong>Principle 6 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">All mankind were created equal.<br /><br /></span></strong>The Founders knew that in these three ways, all mankind are theoretically treated as:<br /><br />1.Equal before God.<br />2.Equal before the law.<br />3.Equal in their rights.<br /><br /><strong>Principle 7 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">The proper role of government is to protect equal rights, not provide equal things.</span><br /><br /></strong>The Founders recognized that the people cannot delegate to their government any power except that which they have the lawful right to exercise themselves.<br /><br /><strong>Principle 8 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">Mankind are endowed by God with certain unalienable rights.<br /></span><br /></strong>"Those rights, then, which God and nature have established, and are therefore called natural rights, such as are life and liberty, need not the aid of human laws to be more effectually invested in every man than they are; neither do they receive any additional strength when declared by the municipal [or state] laws to be inviolable. On the contrary, no human legislation has power to abridge or destroy them, unless the owner [of the right] shall himself commit some act that amounts to a forfeiture." - William Blackstone<br /><br /><strong>Principle 9 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">To protect human rights, God has revealed a code of divine law.</span></strong><br /><br />"The doctrines thus delivered we call the revealed or divine law, and they are to be found only in the Holy Scriptures. These precepts, when revealed, are found by comparison to be really a part of the original law of nature, as they tend in all their consequences to man's felicity." - William Blackstone<br /><br /><strong>Principle 10 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">The God-given right to govern is vested in the sovereign authority of the whole people.</span></strong><br /><br />"The fabric of American empire ought to rest on the solid basis of the consent of the people. The streams of national power ought to flow immediately from that pure, original fountain of all legislative authority." - Alexander Hamilton<br /><br /><strong>Principle 11 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">The majority of the people may alter or abolish a government which has become tyrannical.</span><br /><br /></strong>"Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes ... but when a long train of abuses and usurpations ... evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security." - Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence<br /><br /><strong>Principle 12 -<span style="color:#ff0000;"> The United States of America shall be a republic</span></strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">.<br /><br /></span>"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America<br /><br />And to the republic for which it stands...."<br /><br /><strong>Principle 13 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">A Constitution should protect the people from the frailties of their rulers.</span></strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><br /><br /></span>"If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary.... [But lacking these] you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself." - James Madison<br /><br /><strong>Principle 14 -<span style="color:#ff0000;"> Life and liberty are secure only so long as the rights of property are secure .<br /></span></strong><br />John Locke reasoned that God gave the earth and everything in it to the whole human family as a gift. Therefore the land, the sea, the acorns in the forest, the deer feeding in the meadow belong to everyone "in common." However, the moment someone takes the trouble to change something from its original state of nature, that person has added his ingenuity or labor to make that change. Herein lies the secret to the origin of "property rights."<br /><br /><strong>Principle 15 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">The highest level of prosperity occurs when there is a free-market economy and a minimum of government regulations.</span><br /><br /></strong>Prosperity depends upon a climate of wholesome stimulation with four basic freedoms in operation:<br /><br />1. The Freedom to try.<br />2. The Freedom to buy.<br />3. The Freedom to sell.<br />4.The Freedom to fail.<br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="color:#666666;">Principle 16</span> -</span> The government should be separated into three branches </span></strong>.<br /><br />"I call you to witness that I was the first member of the Congress who ventured to come out in public, as I did in January 1776, in my Thoughts on Government ... in favor of a government with three branches and an independent judiciary. This pamphlet, you know, was very unpopular. No man appeared in public to support it but yourself." - John Adams<br /><br /><strong>Principle 17 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">A system of checks and balances should be adopted to prevent the abuse of power by the different branches of government.<br /></span><br /></strong>"It will not be denied that power is of an encroaching nature and that it ought to be effectually restrained from passing the limits assigned to it." - James Madison<br /><br /><strong>Principle 18 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">The unalienable rights of the people are most likely to be preserved if the principles of government are set forth in a written Constitutio</span>n.<br /></strong><br />The structure of the American system is set forth in the Constitution of the United States and the only weaknesses which have appeared are those which were allowed to creep in despite the Constitution.<br /><br /><strong>Principle 19 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">Only limited and carefully defined powers should be delegated to government, all others being retained by the people.</span></strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><br /><br /></span>The Tenth Amendment is the most widely violated provision of the bill of rights. If it had been respected and enforced America would be an amazingly different country than it is today. This amendment provides:<br /><br />"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."<br /><br /><strong>Principle 20 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">Efficiency and dispatch require that the government operate according to the will of the majority, but constitutional provisions must be made to protect the rights of the minority.</span></strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><br /></span><br />"Every man, by consenting with others to make one body politic under one government, puts himself under an obligation to every one of that society to submit to the determination of the majority, and to be concluded [bound] by it." - John Locke<br /><br /><strong>Principle 21 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">Strong local self-government is the keystone to preserving human freedom.</span></strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><br /><br /></span>"The way to have good and safe government is not to trust it all to one, but to divide it among the many, distributing to every one exactly the functions he is competent [to perform best]. - Thomas Jefferson<br /><br /><strong>Principle 22 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">A free people should be governed by law and not by the whims of men.<br /><br /></span></strong>"The end of law is not to abolish or restrain, but to preserve and enlarge freedom. For in all the states of created beings, capable of laws, where there is no law there is no freedom. For liberty is to be free from restraint and violence of others, which cannot be where there is no law." - John Locke<br /><br /><strong>Principle 23 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">A free society cannot survive as a republic without a broad program of general education.</span></strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><br /></span><br />"They made an early provision by law that every town consisting of so many families should be always furnished with a grammar school. They made it a crime for such a town to be destitute of a grammar schoolmaster for a few months, and subjected it to a heavy penalty. So that the education of all ranks of people was made the care and expense of the public, in a manner that I believe has been unknown to any other people, ancient or modern. The consequences of these establishments we see and feel every day [written in 1765]. A native of America who cannot read and write is as rare ... as a comet or an earthquake." John Adams<br /><br /><strong>Principle 24 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">A free people will not survive unless they stay strong.</span></strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><br /><br /></span>"To be prepared for war is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace." - George Washington<br /><br /><strong>Principle 25 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">"Peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations -- entangling alliances with none."- Thomas Jefferson, given in his first inaugural address.</span></strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><br /><br /></span><strong>Principle 26 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">The core unit which determines the strength of any society is the family; therefore the government should foster and protect its integrity.</span></strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><br /><br /></span>"There is certainly no country in the world where the tie of marriage is more respected than in America, or where conjugal happiness is more highly or worthily appreciated." Alexis de Tocqueville<br /><br /><strong>Principle 27 - <span style="color:#ff0000;">The burden of debt is as destructive to human freedom as subjugation by conquest.<br /><br /></span></strong>"We are bound to defray expenses [of the war] within our own time, and are unauthorized to burden posterity with them....

Then Hurricane Katrina happened in 2005. We were wrong!<br /><br />In response to hysterical (and mostly inaccurate) cries of widespread murder and rape throughout the city, the Governor of Louisiana sent the national guard and local police on a house-to-house search for weapons in some of the poorer areas of New Orleans. When they should have been shooting looters, they decided to go on a search for weapons instead! Law enforcement officers knocked doors down when necessary, and subdued lawful, gun-owning citizens and even disarmed them at gun point! To make a grim scene even worse, they blockaded citizens of N.O. in the city proper by refusing to allow them to walk out of the city via the bridges, and even FORCED many to stay in the Superdome while sewage filled the walkways. The malfeasence of FEMA was legendary as well, and would require far too much space to document in detail. FEMA exacerbated the problem.<br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">It was a hellish, nightmarish scene of third world tyranny and local incompetance--IN AN AMERICAN CITY!!</span></strong><br /><br />The government-induced disaster in New Orleans jolted me. I became aware that elections alone couldn't possibly protect our God-given rights as free citizens from those who disregard or even disdain our Constitution...our common rule book. Those National Guard soldiers and policeman who participated in these unconstitutional searches and seizures of weapons, and de facto BLOCKADE of the city, all took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution. It's the same oath I took in 1987 when I joined the Navy for a six year hitch:<br /><br /><strong><em>"I, (NAME), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God."<br /></em></strong><br />Far too many troops and police failed to KEEP their oath.<br /><br />You may notice that the first part of the oath is defending the Constitution, and that obeying the orders of the President comes after that? This way, when the President or Governor (or any government official) directly violates the Constitution, those orders are supposed to be ignored or countermanded on the spot. I know that's a lot to ask, and it's one hell of a lot easier to just obey bad orders than to disobey them, but our future as a representative republic of law depends on an informed and patriotic military and law enforcement arm.<br /><br />Today we are afflicted by an administration and Congress that is so far out of control in it's lust for power that the Constitution isn't even a speed bump to these totalitarians and their devious schemes to "fundamentally transform America." In dozens of different ways our Constitutional, freedom-based way of life is under direct assault from within.<br /><br />In the final analysis, all tyranny relies on it's enforcement arm; the police, the national guard, and ultimately the military. That's where the Oath Keepers come in. We seek to <strong><em>"reach, teach, and inspire"</em></strong> (thanks Mike Austell) all military, reserves, National Guard, veterans, Peace Officers, and Fire Fighters about their primary oath to the Constitution of the United States. As long as they stay true to the oath we all took, the ballot box will remain effective at beating back statist tyranny.

The soul of this great representative republic, based on the rule of law--rather than the transitory and often brutal whims of men--is under relentless assault. Will we continue this amazing experiment in self rule and human freedom? Or will our way of life be destroyed, and tyranny take it's place?<br /><br /><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">Join us at the Oath Keepers.

I sure didn't</em>.<br /><br /><strong>RUSH:</strong> Time now, ladies and gentlemen, for The Real Story of Thanksgiving, as written by I -- by me -- in my second book, See, I Told You So. It's page 70 in the hardcover version. "On August 1, 1620, the Mayflower set sail. It carried a total of 102 passengers, including forty Pilgrims led by William Bradford. On the journey, Bradford set up an agreement, a contract, that established just and equal laws for all members of the new community, irrespective of their religious beliefs. Where did the revolutionary ideas expressed in the Mayflower Compact come from? From the Bible. The Pilgrims were a people completely steeped in the lessons of the Old and New Testaments. They looked to the ancient Israelites for their example. And, because of the biblical precedents set forth in Scripture, they never doubted that their experiment would work."<br /><br />Now, you know the usual story of Thanksgiving: They landed. They had no clue where they were, no idea how to feed themselves. The Indians came out, showed 'em how to pop popcorn, fed 'em turkey, saved 'em basically -- and then white European settlers after that basically wiped out the Indian population. It's a horrible example. Not only is that not true, here is the part that's been omitted from what is still today taught as the traditional Thanksgiving story in many schools. "The original contract the Pilgrims had entered into with their merchant-sponsors in London called for everything they produced to go into a common store,' when they got here, 'and each member of the community was entitled to one common share. All of the land they cleared and the houses they built belong to the community as well.<br /><br />"They were going to distribute it equally. All of the land they cleared and the houses they built belonged to the community as well. ... [William] Bradford, who had become the new governor of the colony, recognized that this form of collectivism was as costly and destructive to the Pilgrims as that first harsh winter, which had taken so many lives. He decided to take bold action. Bradford assigned a plot of land to each family to work and manage, thus turning loose the power of the marketplace. ... Long before Karl Marx was even born, the Pilgrims had discovered and experimented with what could only be described as socialism,' and it had failed" miserably because when every put things in the common store, some people didn't have to put things in for there to be, people that didn't produce anything were taking things out, and it caused resentment just as it does today. So Bradford had to change it.<br /><br />"What Bradford and his community found was that the most creative and industrious people had no incentive to work any harder than anyone else, unless they could utilize the power of personal motivation! But while most of the rest of the world has been experimenting with socialism for well over a hundred years – trying to refine it, perfect it, and re-invent it – the Pilgrims decided early on to scrap it permanently. What Bradford wrote about this social experiment should be in every schoolchild's history lesson. If it were, we might prevent much needless suffering," that happens today and will happen "in the future. 'The experience that we had in this common course and condition, tried sundry years...that by taking away property, and bringing community into a common wealth, would make them happy and flourishing – as if they were wiser than God,' Bradford wrote.<br /><br />'For this community (so far as it was) was found to breed much confusion and discontent, and retard much employment that would have been to their benefit and comfort. For young men that were most able and fit for labor and service did repine that they should spend their time and strength to work for other men's wives and children without [being paid] that was thought injustice.' ... The Pilgrims found that people could not be expected to do their best work without incentive. So what did Bradford's community try next? They unharnessed the power of good old free enterprise by invoking the undergirding capitalistic principle of private property. Every family was assigned its own plot of land to work and permitted to market its own crops and products. And what was the result?"<br /><br />Here's what Bradford wrote, the governor of the Massachusetts colony. "'This had very good success,' wrote Bradford, 'for it made all hands industrious, so as much more corn was planted than otherwise would have been.' Bradford doesn't sound like much of a Clintonite, does he?" or an Obamaite, if I can update it. "Is it possible that supply-side economics could have existed before the 1980s? ... Anyway, the pilgrims found "In no time, the Pilgrims found they had more food than they could eat themselves. ... So they set up trading posts and exchanged goods with the Indians. The profits allowed them to pay off their debts to the merchants in London. And the success and prosperity of the Plymouth settlement attracted more Europeans and began what came to be known as the 'Great Puritan Migration.'<br /><br />Very few people have heard this story or have had it taught to them -- and the "thanks" was to God for showing them the way. In later parts of the chapter, I quote John Adams and George Washington on their reminisces and their thoughts on the first Thanksgiving and the notion it was thanks to God. It was an entirely different story than is being taught in the schools. It's been muddied down, watered down all these years -- and now it's been hijacked by the multicultural community -- to the point that the story of Thanksgiving is the Pilgrims were a bunch of incompetents and were saved only by the goodness of the Indians, who then were wiped out. And that's what kids are being taught today -- 'cause, of course, you can't mention the Bible in school, and that's fundamental to the real story of Thanksgiving.<br /><br /><strong><em>Thanks Rush!<br /></em></strong>JINGOISThttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05767545065448290469noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210892043240981512.post-74447261093186816032010-11-04T16:18:00.000-07:002010-11-14T04:42:33.732-08:00Are You Worried About "Quantitative Easing"? YOU SHOULD BE!Yesterday the Federal Reserve announced that it was planning on injecting ANOTHER $600,000,000,000 (that's <span style="color:#009900;"><strong>600 billion dollars!<span style="color:#000000;">,</span></strong></span> in case you were wondering) into the American financial system by purchasing Treasury bonds. The stated goal is to drive interest rates lower and encourage borrowing. Call it a top-down method of "stimulating" the economy. And you guessed it, they'll PRINT it!<br /><br />Investopedia defines Quantitative Easing:<br /><a href="http://www.investopedia.com/terms/q/quantitative-easing.asp">http://www.investopedia.com/terms/q/quantitative-easing.asp</a><br /><br /><strong>--What Does Quantitative Easing Mean?</strong> A government monetary policy occasionally used to increase the money supply by buying government securities or other securities from the market. Quantitative easing increases the money supply by flooding financial institutions with capital in an effort to promote increased lending and liquidity.<br /><br /><strong>--Investopedia explains Quantitative Easing...</strong>Central banks tend to use quantitative easing when interest rates have already been lowered to near 0% levels and have failed to produce the desired effect. The major risk of quantitative easing is that although more money is floating around, there is still a fixed amount of goods for sale. <em>This will eventually lead to higher prices or inflation.<br /><br /></em>YES it will !!! Our problem is NOT high interest rates, they're already near historically low levels. Our financial problems are many and have political origins, like the government-induced home mortgage meltdown, ObamaCare, the looming threat of tax hikes and over-regulation, increased energy taxes via "Cap and Trade" legislation, forced unionization via "Card Check" legislation, and the list goes on. The ability to borrow money isn't nearly as problematic as the menace of abusive governance.<br /><br />So what's likely to happen when $600,000,000,000 brand spanking new <span style="color:#33cc00;">$dollar bills$</span> are injected into the American economy?<br /><br /><strong>Inflation.</strong> And if we're terribly unlucky, <strong>hyperinflation</strong>. Think Weimar Republic, Germany, circa 1924.<br /><br />Our economy will be awash with 600 billion more dollars chasing the same goods and services as before this second round of "quantitative easing." The cost of everything you buy is going to increase, maybe even dramatically. The current fight over extending the Bush tax cuts will seem like a silly side show once that $2.65 loaf of bread becomes $9.12, or a pound of hamburger goes fom the current $3.25/lb. to $13.50/lb..<br /><br />This sort of inflation is the unkindest tax increase of all due to it's size and scope and the dramatic way that it impoverishes us and diminishes our lifestyles.<br /><br /><strong>Think about it!</strong><br /><br />.JINGOISThttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05767545065448290469noreply@blogger.com20tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210892043240981512.post-69073022654071932322010-11-03T15:40:00.000-07:002010-11-03T16:12:49.792-07:00Are We Still Worthy of Leaders Like This?Many messages were sent to Washington DC last night, and they all ended with an exclamation point.

The next campaign begins today. Because you must now overcome determined party insiders if this nation is going to be spared from fiscal disaster.<br /><br />Many of the people who will be welcoming the new class of Senate conservatives to Washington never wanted you here in the first place. The establishment is much more likely to try to buy off your votes than to buy into your limited-government philosophy. Consider what former GOP senator-turned-lobbyist Trent Lott told the Washington Post earlier this year: "As soon as they get here, we need to co-opt them."<br /><br />Don't let them. Co-option is coercion. Washington operates on a favor-based economy and for every earmark, committee assignment or fancy title that's given, payback is expected in return. The chits come due when the roll call votes begin. This is how big-spending bills that everyone always decries in public always manage to pass with just enough votes.<br /><br />But someone can't be bribed if they aren't for sale. Here is some humble advice on how to recognize and refuse such offers.<br /><br />First, don't request earmarks. If you do, you'll vote for legislation based on what's in it for your state, not what's best for the country. You will lose the ability to criticize wasteful spending. And, if you dare to oppose other pork-barrel projects, the earmarkers will retaliate against you.<br /><br />In 2005, Sen. Tom Coburn (R., Okla.) offered a measure to kill funding for the infamous "Bridge to Nowhere." Before the vote, Sen.

Towards WHAT?!!Across the blogosphere, and in the hallowed halls of the far left, I hear Democrats and the media left bemoaning the impending loss of societal and legislative "progress" if the Republicans win big in the upcoming midterm elections.

Obama admitted a few days ago that <em>"there's no such thing as shovel-ready projects"</em> after pushing the lie for months.<br /><br />--<em>forward to</em>....Banning all exploratory drilling in American waters while FUNDING Mexican drilling in those same waters and Brazillian deep water drilling with <strong><span style="color:#006600;">AMERICAN tax dollars!</span></strong>! This cost tens of thousands of American jobs. Two days ago they lifted the ban for political reasons...try getting a PERMIT to drill. LOL! See ya four years from now. :-)<br /><br />--<em>forward to</em>....Consolidating power in the hands of radical left-wing, unaccountable "Czars" who don't answer to the American people or their representatives in Congress. Obie isn't the first president to have czars, he's just the WORST abuser of that privilege by far!<br /><br />--<em>forward to</em>....Passing a health care takeover bill (<strong>ObamaCare</strong>) against the express will of the American people by blatantly and corruptly PURCHASING the votes of hesitant Senators and Representatives.<br /><br />--<em>forward to</em>....Attempting to pass the Cap and Tax bill which amounts to an HUGE tax hike on an already beleaguered population, with more than 25% either unemployed or underemployed. The federal government wants MORE of your money at a time when you can LEAST afford it.<br /><br />--<em>forward to</em>....Adjourning Congress to go campaign for re election while PROHIBITING an up or down vote to extend the Bush era tax cuts. <strong>THEY HAVE RAISED YOUR TAXES ENORMOUSLY BY THEIR INACTION!!<br /><br /></strong>--<em>forward to</em>....Working to pass "Card Check" legislation that ELIMINATES the secret ballot in union elections. Let's just call it what it is--"Unionization by Intimidation." The President and his union cronies don't care for the secret ballot. And they call themselves <span style="color:#3333ff;">"Democrats."</span> We know them as<span style="color:#3333ff;"> thugs</span>.<br /><br />--<em>forward to</em>....A "Justice Department" that blatantly ignored voter intimidation against white voters in Philadelphia because the thugs doing the intimidating were members of the "New Black Panthers." They used the Federal government to discriminate against white voters. That's "hope and change" the Dems can believe in, the rest of us can &*%$ off!<br /><br />--<em>forward to</em>....An administration that cozies up to international pariahs and thugs while snubbing our true allies. Obama, Reid, and Pelosi view Fox News, the Tea Party and talk radio as a bigger threat to America than a nuclear armed Iran. An Iran that we COULD have helped to "fundamentally change" just one year ago.

Michelle Obama is a lawyer.<br />Hillary Clinton is a lawyer. Bill Clinton is a lawyer.<br />John Edwards is a lawyer. Elizabeth Edwards is a lawyer.<br />Every Democrat nominee since 1984 went to law school (although Gore did not graduate).<br />Every Democrat vice presidential nominee since 1976, except for Lloyd Bentsen, went to law school.<br />Look at leaders of the Democrat Party in Congress:<br />Harry Reid is a lawyer. Nancy Pelosi is a lawyer.<br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">The Republican Party is different.</span></strong><br />President Bush is a businessman.<br />Vice President Cheney is a businessman.<br />The leaders of the Republican Revolution:<br />Newt Gingrich was a history professor.<br />Tom Delay was an exterminator. Dick Armey was an economist.<br />House Minority Leader Boehner was a plastics manufacturer.<br />The former Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist is a heart surgeon.<br />Who was the last Republican president who was a lawyer? Gerald Ford, who left office 31 years ago and who barely won the Republican nomination as a sitting president, running against Ronald Reagan in 1976.<br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">The Republican Party is made up of real people doing real work, who are often the targets of lawyers.</span></strong><br /><strong><span style="color:#3333ff;">The Democrat Party is made up of lawyers. </span></strong><br /><strong><span style="color:#3333ff;"></span></strong><br />Democrats mock and scorn men who create wealth, like Bush and Cheney, or who heal the sick, like Frist, or who immerse themselves in history, like Gingrich.<br /><br />The Lawyers Party sees these sorts of people, who provide goods and services that people want, as the enemies of America . And, so we have seen the procession of official enemies, in the eyes of the Lawyers Party, grow.<br /><br />Against whom do Hillary and Obama rail? Pharmaceutical companies, oil companies, hospitals, manufacturers, fast food restaurant chains, large retail businesses, bankers, and anyone producing anything of value in our nation.<br /><br />This is the natural consequence of viewing everything through the eyes of lawyers. Lawyers solve problems by successfully representing their clients, in this case the American people.<br />Lawyers seek to have new laws passed, they seek to win lawsuits, they press appellate courts to overturn precedent, and lawyers always parse language to favor their side.<br /><br />Confined to the narrow practice of law, that is fine. <strong>But it is an awful way to govern a great nation.</strong> When politicians as lawyers begin to view some Americans as clients and other Americans as opposing parties, then the role of the legal system in our life becomes all-consuming. Some Americans become adverse parties of our very government. We are not all litigants in some vast social class-action suit. We are citizens of a republic that promises us a great deal of freedom from laws, from courts, and from lawyers.<br /><br />Today, we are drowning in laws; we are contorted by judicial decisions; we are driven to distraction by omnipresent lawyers in all parts of our once private lives. America has a place for laws and lawyers, but that place is modest and reasonable, not vast and unchecked. When the most important decision for our next president is whom he will appoint to the Supreme Court, the role of lawyers and the law in America is too big.<br /><br />When House Democrats sue America in order to hamstring our efforts to learn what our enemies are planning to do to us, then the role of litigation in America has become crushing.<br /><br />We cannot expect the Lawyers Party to provide real change, real reform or real hope in America. Most Americans know that a republic in which every major government action must be blessed by nine unelected judges is not what Washington intended in 1789. Most Americans grasp that we cannot fight a war when ACLU lawsuits snap at the heels of our defenders. Most Americans intuit that more lawyers and judges will not restore declining moral values or spark the spirit of enterprise in our economy.<br /><br />Perhaps Americans will understand that change cannot be brought to our nation by those lawyers who already largely dictate American society and business.<br /><br /><strong>Perhaps Americans will see that hope does not come from the mouths of lawyers but from personal dreams nourished by hard work.</strong><br /><br />Perhaps Americans will embrace the truth that more lawyers with more power will only make our problems worse.<br /><br />The United States has 5% of the world's population and 66% of the world's lawyers!! Tort (Legal) reform legislation has been introduced in congress several times in the last several years to limit punitive damages in ridiculous lawsuits such as spilling hot coffee on yourself and suing the establishment that sold it to you and also to limit punitive damages in huge medical malpractice lawsuits. This legislation has continually been blocked from even being voted on by the Democrat Party. When you see that 97% of the political contributions from the American Trial Lawyers Association goes to the Democratic Party, then you realize who is responsible for our medical and product costs being so high!JINGOISThttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05767545065448290469noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210892043240981512.post-68339208493258811072010-09-23T04:36:00.000-07:002010-09-23T04:51:31.894-07:00ANOTHER Assault on our Freedom: The Disclose Act is Back!After beating back amnesty for illegal aliens in the D.R.E.A.M.

CLASS WARFARE is in full bloom once again!!<br /><br />There is a plague of economic populism emanating from the political left these days. More than ever we are seeing class warfare used as a weapon to pit the "haves" against the "have-nots", the rich vs. the poor and the middle class. Democrats are the main practitioners of this ugliness, but Republicans aren't totally immune to it's allure. Florida Governor Charlie Crist has "taken on big insurers" repeatedly as part of his platform because he's "The People's Governor."<br /><br />This strategy is nothing more than the political equivalent of the Divide and Conquer strategy for waging war, which has been variously attributed to Julius Caesar and Sun Tzu. By pitting the majority middle class and poor (collectively referred to as "working people") against the so-called wealthy, the political left seeks to cause a seething resentment against those same wealthy people. This resentment is then used to increase taxes and enact legislation that "levels the playing field."<br /><br />A typical class warfare practitioner wrote this at the jax.com opinion board not to long ago:<br /><br /><em>"The taxpayer gets very little return on investment for money spent on the wealthy. While a small amount might accidently trickle back into the local economy, the majority goes into wall-street and banking games."</em><br /><br />Note how he refers to a tax cut as "money spent on the wealthy"? That assumes that the money NOT seized by the government is only lent to the person who actually earned it. In other words, a tax cut equals government spending. This turns property rights as we know them on their head. The ongoing attempt is to delegitimize the wealthy person's claim to their own money.<br /><br />A high percentage of my customers are very wealthy people. Oftentimes my company isn't the only one doing work at a customer's home. There are painters, crews who pave driveways and decks with paving stones, pool cleaners, insurance salesman, irrigation guys, personal trainers, tanning bed vendors, carpenters, roofers, and the list gets very long.<br /><br />The companies and the crews who are employed at these wealthy homes then spend their money at stores of all sorts, pay their bills and maybe even manage to save for their children's education. In turn their customers also do well. In case you're wondering, this is true economic activity. This is the "return on investment" the class warrior attempted to diminish.<br /><br />What happens when the class warrior is successful in his mantra, <em>"the rich aren't paying their fair share" </em>or<em> "greedy corporations are pilfering the Treasury"</em>?<br /><br />We raise taxes on the wealthy. Social justice, right? Not so fast! The chances are better than even that the class warrior hasn't thought through the unintended consequences of his divisive rhetoric and poisonous name calling.<br /><br />The wealthy family or individual will pay more in income taxes and they receive a clear message from the rest of America; "We want your money, and we'll use the government as an instrument of plunder to make it happen."<br /><br />If that "rich" guy is a small businessman, as I suspect most of them are, they'll look to trim the fat from their budget asap. They will wonder: Who are my most expendable workers? Which ones can I spare without hurting profitability? Those workers will get the axe because they were probably a detriment anyways. What's the result?<br /><br />Unemployment goes up, which is usually the first unintended consequence of successful class warfare and it's resultant tax increases.<br /><br />If that "rich" guy is a former business owner who is semi-retired and living off investments and/or part time income, he may prioritize expenses in different ways. He may offload a car or two (in addition to the guy who details his cars), he may decide that his total relandscaping project can wait until his investments tick up again to offset his bigger tax bill. He may only want his windows cleaned every 18 months instead of every 9 months. He may decide against that new paint job or decide that the new inground pool can wait, or ALL OF THE ABOVE!<br /><br />The simple and unavoidable truth is that when you seize the wealth of the rich, they take a hit for sure. Their annual income may go from 1.3 million dollars to 1.1 million, or from 980 thousand dollars to 860 thousand. So what says the class warrior defiantly, "He still has 860 THOUSAND dollars!"<br /><br />And tens of thousands--if not HUNDREDS of thousands--of "working class" people are left holding their bills and wondering, "where did my job go?"<br /><br />Thank your local class warrior! That's hope and change he can believe in.JINGOISThttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05767545065448290469noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210892043240981512.post-44977520752963492972010-09-14T16:47:00.000-07:002010-09-14T16:56:47.501-07:00Will the Government SEIZE Your Retirement Assets?I wrote about this awful possibility 8 months ago...<br /><br /><a href="http://jingoist-foundingprinciples.blogspot.com/2010/02/will-big-brother-steal-our-retirement.html">http://jingoist-foundingprinciples.blogspot.com/2010/02/will-big-brother-steal-our-retirement.html</a><br /><br />...and now it seems that the <strong><span style="color:#000099;">American Thinker</span></strong> has picked up the scent of tyranny in the air.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.americanthinker.com/2010/09/retirement_fund_trillions_lure.html">http://www.americanthinker.com/2010/09/retirement_fund_trillions_lure.html</a><br /><br /><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">Retirement Fund Trillions Lure Government Grabbers</span></strong><br />By Peter Raymond<br /><br />Is the government making plans to confiscate your retirement money? The Obama administration is certainly exploring the idea.<br /><br />This question no longer seems far-fetched when the group-thinkers in Washington unabashedly promote a doctrine of wealth redistribution and central planning. These Keynesian socialists know they will need vast new sources of revenues to fund their relentless spending binges to "transform" this nation. A logical next step would be to legitimize the confiscation of private retirement assets -- an idea that was contemplated in the recent past by the Clinton administration.<br /><br />According to the Investment Company Institute, there was $7.835 trillion in IRA, 401K, 457, and 403b accounts in 2009. That is certainly too large a sum to be ignored by the big spending social engineers in Washington. Bureaucrats and politicians have been hard at work formulating a social justice excuse to legislate an historic seizure of private assets. This would not be the first time the statists extorted wealth from U.S. citizens on a massive scale.<br /><br />The public shakedown always employs a two-step tactic to repeatedly dupe the malleable electorate. First, the statists fabricate and incessantly excoriate a contrived crisis of social injustice that is victimizing helpless and unknowing Americans. Next, they "craft" -- a term Pelosi uses again and again -- insidious legislation disguised as a necessary and compassionate solution that makes participation and universal funding compulsory by force of the law.<br /><br />It is a simple and effective strategy that continues to trip up even the staunchest conservatives, who ultimately succumb to the throng of propagandized constituents demanding protection from the newly revealed threat.<br /><br />Patrick Heller warns:<br /><br />Expect to see terms such as "retirement income protection" thrown around. It is highly likely that such a program would be implemented in steps to help overcome public opposition. The US government plan is to eventually take ownership of all assets in IRAs and 401K accounts and replace them with US government "Treasury Retirement Bonds." In the October 2008 hearings, it was proposed that these bonds pay a 3% interest rate. Another major change is that, upon retirement, the individual's retirement account would be converted into an annuity. Once the individual is deceased, the individual's heirs would not inherit anything.<br /><strong>(click link to continue)<br /></strong>JINGOISThttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05767545065448290469noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210892043240981512.post-32655140703002321502010-09-11T07:08:00.000-07:002010-09-11T07:19:13.244-07:00The Lost Lesson of 9-11.Four planes crashed on this day 9 years ago.

An army of clueless, disconnected, ignorant Americans invited him to bring his Marxist, glaringly anti-American jihad into our lives. This president's overtly destructive, clear-and-present-danger agenda is surpassed in transparency only by his ultra-leftist public voting record and overall lifetime conduct of consorting with the enemy as a child and student of Marxism, socialist and racist community organizer, congregant of the blatant America-hating black-theology- and social-justice-spewing Rev.
