Rock Stars and Nut Shells

It's finally hit me as to how to reason out why anyone (aside from being gay and wanting to marry) would ever vote Obama into office for a second term. It's learned behavoir. Think of the rock star that people scream over and say is the "best ever." Aynone with ears could tell you differently, but the fans rant and rave over the "best voice ever." If you press these fans further (onces with an IQ anyway) they admit that they aren't really the best voice but they give away freebees with their fan club and tell you you are wonderful because you are a fan. Meanwhile the fans of Pavarotti or Sinatra may not get as many giveaways or perks but they have the satisfaction of knowing that they are fans of someone who really does have talent. That's the state of the presidency in a nut shell.

Indianapolis

There was a large explosion about two hours ago in Indianapolis Indiana. They aren't sure what has caused it but they are saying everything from a gas explosion to a plane crash. The people of the area were told to have ready kits in case of an emergency. Those from adjoining neighborhoods are gathering their kits and going to the scene to help. No major national television stations are covering it. All news is coming from a web broadcast of a local station, and of course twitter.

The first step on the way to victory is to recognize the enemy. - Corrie Ten Boom
Too often we buy into the rhetoric of the enemy and hire them for the job.

Oil Drilling Shut Down Out West

In order to keep the USA dependent on foreign oil the Obama Administration is shutting down shale drilling projects in the western part of the country. The administration is already anti-coal and seemingly wants to keep us in a subservient position to the Saudis who are predominantly muslim. It is important to remember that by taking away our ability to produce our own energy we are also being stripped of our freedom as we are now dependent on an outside entity for our survival. Stripping our energy independence

Big Mac Attack

Today there was news that McDonalds sales dropped for the first time in a decade. Yay, you say? People are starting to eat healthier? That would a step in the right direction, BUT, let's be realisitc. It's probably the economy. Yes, even the luxury meals at McDonalds are too expensive for many these days.

Non-Profits And Their Salaries

Non-profits are largely suffering in the current climate of the poor US economy. Therefore the largest of them should be rethinking their incredibly high salaries for their top executives. Non - Profit jobs on local levels do not have the large salaries however, Non-profits such as the Red Cross have top salaries of over $600,000.00 annually. In the climate of a non-profit those in charge should not be paid such a large salary. Yes they take in Millions of dollars a year, but how many blankets or how much food or shelter could you get with that kind of cash?

Jesse Jackson Jr In Talks For Plea Deal With Feds

This would explain that whole depression thing.

His dad has been awfully quiet on his son's latest projects. Sorry he's having "medical issues" but glad he was caught.

Benghazi...The Debacle Continues

It's now been admitted that The Obama administration lied about the Benghazi attack. So why are we not charging them as an accomplice to murder? It was a cover up for sure, but no one seems to be all that suprised. What has this country come to? Oh, the good old days of Nixon when you could force an undesireable out of office. Have the lawyers fallen asleep at the controls? Edgar Snyder where are you? I don't mean that. Edgar Snyder and his firm are not really up to the job...

And you know he would also have something to say about how we should not apologize for our country. Ronald Reagan was a better President than any of us realized at the time. Government's first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives. Ronald Reagan

Let's Hope It's Just Temporary

So, Jesse Jackson Jr wins his reelection from the looney bin. That doesn't make me feel better about our dire financial and health related situations in this country but it's somehow fitting. I think it's knowing that we can chalk up much of the current political situation to insanity. Let's hope for the sake of our nation it's temporary.

Election Fraud Pot Meet Kettle

Democrat Howard Dean Says of today's Presidential Election: "The only way we lose is through fraud." Fraud...Fraud...Oh, You mean like cutting delegates in half in Michigan and Florida when it was to Obama's advantage and Hillary's disadvantage? And then outright stripping Hillary of some of her EARNED delegates? You mean fraud like THAT Howard? Well, if anyone should know about fraud it would be YOU Mr. Dean.

Disappearing Czars

The Obama Czars....what happened to that plan? Where did they go? They apparently still there. Just flying under the radar. Who has Czars in America? That's not an American thing.

The Economy

Yes, I agree with the news reporter that the economy is a big issue for this election. But keeping socialism at bay is too. Socialism and Marxism are not positive places for a country to be and we are there if we aren't careful. Don't give the USA four more years of socialist Obama. Please.

Goodness For Pets

This past year a law was passed that any state wanting to be eligible for FEMA aid has to accomodate pets during an evacuation situation. You cannot be made to abandon your pet! Good news and the way it should be!

It's Been A Week

There are still 1.2 million people without power in the New York, New Jersey area after Hurricane Sandy. People are cold and help is very slow in coming. Shouldn't the Red Cross and FEMA have a better handle on these things? Obama came to the Rescue...no not to the rescue exactly...actually it was for a photo op. He came...they begged...he posed for a picture and went back on the campaign trail. Bloomberg is almost as much of a joke as Obama. If Guiliani were in charge it would be likely that things would be in MUCH better shape.

Obama Care Doesn't Really Help Americans

Yes, my health insurance has gone up since Obama took office, and a friend with a chronic illness has been told that the medicine that helps his severe pain is no longer available to him since the small amount of Obama care kicked in this past April. Obama care is a scam and will end up costing more money, and killing more people due to waiting times and unavailable meds.

Four Years and Worse Than We Were

Today is the day before Election day 2012. The election is so close. With all the momentum Obama had in the last election he would be breezing through this process if he had even risen to the level of mediocre. As it is Romney is likely to take several "blue leaning" states. The main reasons so many are no longer backing Obama are varied. his hiding facts about the murders of four Americans in Benghazi, his mishadling of our economy, the constant apologizing for America which makes us look weak, The list goes on and on. I don't know a single person who is better off now than four years ago. Obama does not seem to have America as his top priority. I'm betting Romney Will.

The Red Cross

It's sad how the Red Cross is still begging for money for hurricane victims when they are so ill prepared to handle anything of this magnitude. Not only have they failed to get proper supplies and shelter to the people of NY and NJ but they are asking cash strapped America to send money when their CEO makes over $650,000.00 a year! As we see from their disorganization they are obviously not earning that outlandish amount of money. The Red Cross is supposed to be ready to act at a moments notice yet they had more than 72 hours to start making plans for this storm. Perhaps they need to spend more money on preparedness and less on a CEO who is obviously ineffective.

George Soros Wants to Cut Military Benefits

Since when has Soros been running this country? Oh, right, Since Obama "Won" the last election. Raise your hand...were you a half delegate or a full delegate in the primary of 2008? Depends on who you were for, right? Soros' idea of cutting benefits to the military is another way to make America weak. No one in their right mind loves war, but if you are not prepared for it you can fast become a victim. Obama and Soros are all about making America weak, as a military force, and a financial force, as a nation. They are not good for this country.

Dear America

It's obvious by the closeness of the upcoming Presidential Election that you are waking up to the dangers of a socialist society. Obama is a socialist who wants to make the people of this nation so dependent on the government that it no longer cares to live the American Dream. Another four years of Obama and those of us to want to strive and work for what we get will be a minority. Keep the American Dream alive by voting for the person who believes in a strong work ethic, and not handouts for illegals and chronic welfare dwellers. Romney will pull America out of it's slump and help us to return to a nation of Proud AMERICANS.
