  • You'd think with this being such an important election the republicans would have put up better than Giant Douche (Romney) and Crap Sandwich (Gingrich).
  • The White House said that the Ft. Hood massacre was just "Workplace Violence", who are they kidding?
  • Mika Brzezinski told Boone Pickens that the $650,000,000 he paid in taxes over the last 13 years isn't enough. "Fair Share" is everything you have and more.
  • In his speech a couple days ago Obama pretty much said the United States has never functioned properly, since it birth. Thanks Comrade Obama.
  • Speaking of Obama, after a ripping by conservatives, the President decided to postpone his 17 Hawaiian Christmas vacation until Congress decides what to do on the payroll tax holiday. But don't fret FLOTUS is still taking the girls on the 757. 
  • Michelle Malkin came up with a great new hash tag for twitter #Evict_____ insert name of worthless government official here. I.e #EvictHolder.
  • Michael Savage is offering Newt a million dollars to drop out of the race, and I'm starting to think Newt should take the money.
  • Newt did say that the palestinians are an invented people, and I say it's about damn time someone spoke the truth on national TV. 
  • While we are on the subject, there are still several rockets a day coming out of Gaza and striking Southern Israel. Yeah that hasn't stopped in months.
  • I know there is a lot of controversy around the Muppet Movie, but I've seen it and it's good clean Muppet fun. 
  • Of course Sesame Street is a complete loss, their latest character is a "poor, hungry" muppet who talks about how the government can help feed her.
  • The same government that hid information about the Chevy Volt's catching on fire because they own Chevy and didn't want to hurt sales.

When 8.6% Is Really 17.2%

I know it's been forever since my last post. I recently moved from Victorville to Los Angeles, I also started a new job. Which is a good thing since I was unemployed for nearly two years  before this. That means by the White House numbers I wasn't looking for work anymore and therefore didn't count towards the unemployment numbers.

Take this week's unemployment change, The number dropped form 9% to 8.6%, now normally that would be great, but the Obama admin skews the number for their own good. Last month 115,000 jobs were added to the overall numbers. Though that in itself in not enough to lower the rate by 0.4, good thing after 99 weeks an additional 320,ooo people are dropped off the list of unemployed with added to the 115k is 435,000 jobs (added) to drop the official unemployed numbers to 13,896,456.

Beyond that fallacy lies an even larger one. The actual number of unemployed is 25,029,907. Every week some more people fall off the "unemployed" list, not because they got jobs but because they "stopped looking". I can tell you the whole two years I was unemployed I never stopped looking. When you add the "stopped looking" people back into the list you get the 17.2% that are actually unemployed.

Obama desperately needs the unemployment numbers under 9%, no president in modern history has been re-elected with unemployment over 8%,  and while 8.6% is over watch the msm they will only acknowledge 8% and push how the great Obama saved the day. Time to take the wool off your eyes, and spread the word. Tell your friends and neighbors not to fall for the administration's illusions.

Don't believe me? Do the math yourself, take the numbers from the debt clock and do the math with the official WH numbers.

They're Coming

Molon Labe,


It should be no surprise to anyone who knows me or regularly reads this blog that I am a gun owner. I believe the 2nd Amendment to be just as important as the first if not more so. (Actually I think the entire Bill of Rights is important and if we lose one amendment the rest will fall like dominoes).  We know that most democrats hate guns, strike that, most democrats hate regular citizens having guns. It is easier to control a disarmed population. When the Obama administration tried some overt gun law action it was trounced and the president told radical left wing activist Sarah Brady about more gun control;  “I just want you to know that we are working on it,” ... “We have to go through a few processes, but under the radar.” So again it is no surprise that he president is backing this U.N. Small Arms Treaty and calling it harmless to everyday Americans. But lets take a closer look, Larry Bell from Forbes put it this way, if the US Senate ratifies this "treaty" it will have the following effect;

  • Enact tougher licensing requirements, creating additional bureaucratic red tape for legal firearms ownership.
  • Confiscate and destroy all “unauthorized” civilian firearms (exempting those owned by our government of course).
  • Ban the trade, sale and private ownership of all semi-automatic weapons (any that have magazines even though they still operate in the same one trigger pull – one single “bang” manner as revolvers, a simple fact the ant-gun media never seem to grasp).
  • Create an international gun registry, clearly setting the stage for full-scale gun confiscation.
  • In short, overriding our national sovereignty, and in the process, providing license for the federal government to assert preemptive powers over state regulatory powers guaranteed by the Tenth Amendment in addition to our Second Amendment rights.

Remember what I said earlier, this is two amendments gone in one harmless treaty. Former UN Ambassador John Bolton has warned 2nd Amendment advocates the the U.N. “is trying to act as though this is really just a treaty about international arms trade between nation states, but there is no doubt that the real agenda here is domestic firearms control.” Obama has been stacking the deck for gun control in his administration and court picks for a long time. When he said "under the radar" he wasn't kidding. Hillary Clinton, Greg Nickels, Andrew Travers, and the highly anti-gun Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor are just a few of the radical gun control advocates Obama has foisted on us. 

Meanwhile the FBI released the official numbers for crime in 2010 and despite the sales of "evil" guns going up since 2008, the number of gun related crimes had gone down for the fourth straight year. In her new book "Chicks with Guns" author Lindsay McCrum says that 15-20 million women in the US are gun owners and proud. She speaks on the stereotypes attributed to guns and women of all ages, ethnicity and social classes love their guns. It's a unique relationship America has with guns, an amazing freedom where as many people own guns for recreation as those who use them for protection. 

There are many who fear guns, most fear what they do not understand, but our Founding Fathers knew what they were doing when they gave us the Constitution. They took rights God bestowed upon us and made clearly available to all. That is the reason why 235 years later America is still the shining example of freedom on this planet. 


"So, as we set out this year to defeat the divisive forces that would take freedom away, I want to say those fighting words for everyone within the sound of my voice to hear and to heed, and especially for you, Mr. Obama*: 'From my cold, dead hands!"
                                                                                                     — Charlton Heston, May 20, 2000

Then Came Cain

Editorial note: I know it's been a while since my last post. I have been having technical difficulties and it took too long to get them settled. Thank You for your patience.




Last week the MSM had declared the GOP presidential race a two man race. I never thought so, Herman Cain has always been a front runner to me, and now others are starting to see that politicians are all the same and Cain is no politician. 


In his new autobiography "This Is Herman Cain" (out Oct 4), he talks about ending the cavalcade of stars going through the White House, that alone will save the taxpayers big bucks. He also talks about his fight (and victory) with cancer and how he plans to deal with his lack of foreign policy experience. 


And while the MSM is brushing it off as a nothing story, Cain scored 34% to 39% against Obama in a Rasmussen poll. This is the first time Obama polled below 40%. This bounce could be a fluke, but Cain's 9-9-9 plan seems to be resonating with Americans and like me many are tired of the same old politics as usual. 


Mitt Romney is also still polling high and considered the front runner, but Mitt is the John McCain of 2012. Barely conservative and a you know if the media likes him, that means he's bad news for us. Ultimately I don't know if Herman Cain can secure the republican nomination, but I do know that the election is still over a year away and the front runner this time in 2007 was not John McCain. A lot changes in a year.

10

As I reflect on 9/11/2001, many many things come to mind. Frustration over the site itself, the insignificant structures being built and the despicable mayor bloomberg that didn't allow clergy to the memorial or make enough space for all the First Responders. The lack of heart in the hijackers and their backward religion, if you love death there is no place for you in this world. Sorrow for the lost, the innocent who were just going about their day on a beautiful September morning. Most of all Pride, pride in the Firefighters and Police Officers who went well above and beyond to save people and ultimately sacrifice their own lives. Pride in our Soldiers who for 10 years have tirelessly fought and died so this atrocity would never be repeated, and pride in the People of America who despite a weak leader are standing strong in their values and beliefs. 


This is and will always be a solemn day of remeberance, not of service like Obama would like you to believe, but a day to remember the fallen and the survivors. Most importantly so we never forget and never let it happen again.


I snapped this shot in 1997 from a subway train, it just seemed perfect.



Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation.
Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God; for unto Thee do I pray.
O LORD, in the morning shalt Thou hear my voice; in the morning will I order my prayer unto Thee, and will look forward. - Psalm 5

Debate On Debates

So after watching the msnbc GOP debate last night I have a few questions. First I have to point out that Herman Cain is still being largely ignored at all of the debates. Before it was not just Cain getting ignored, Gary Johnson was ignored to the point of disappearing from this debate altogether. Ron Paul was also sidelined at previous debates but last night was given lots of face time. Cain was asked four questions in 2 hours and pushed himself into a couple rebuttal answers. Mostly I blame the media, they have made their choice and it is going to be a two man race from here on out, unless Romney of Perry burn out for some reason. I still say we need to leave the politicians behind and put someone in the White House who knows business and is not a beltway insider.

Now for some questions;

  • Why do journalist run these debates? 
  • Why not people who know what they are talking about rather than bobble-heads who just read what's in front of them? 
  • Why let the media dictate topics and set up the candidates to argue with each other? 
  • What will it take to get substantive questions and not lightning round nothingness? 


While the others argue the same "social security is broken" points, Herman Cain lays out a plan for how to fix it. That's what I want form all the candidates, more detailed plans on how they are going to undo the mess Obama has put us in and how they plan to put us back on track.

  • You'd think a guy named Jimmy Hoffa wouldn't talk so much about taking people out.
  • So it's come out that the Libyan rebel leader has ties with AlQeada, SURPRISE... Wait we knew that.
  • Another "Green Company", Solyndria, who received millions in stimulus and heavy praise from 0babma has gone belly up. The 0bama curse is the only sucessful thing 0bama's name is attached to.
  • Did you notice the zeros in mt 0bama spelling? I though it fitting since there were ZERO jobs created in the month of August.
  • All the babble on and between Perry, Romney and Bachmann reminds me of one thing Herman Cain.
  • Over the holiday 43 people were shot in New York city. Good thing guns are banned there or it would be like the wild west or something.
  • Obama promised to cut the deficit in half before his first term ended. Something tells me they won't release his school records because he was horrible at math.
  • I like Sarah Palin, but I'm also one of the many that don't want her to run for president. The RNC chair seems a better fit for her.

Daily X-tra

So far it's just a coincidence that all of these x-tra post are regarding California. This one will be no different.


As of Monday Gov. Moonbeam will sign AB131, better known as the California Dream Act. A bill stating that illegal alien  college students in California would be eligible to receive publicly funded financial aid. While it won't provide a "path to citizenship" like the federal version AB!131 will cost the already broke state of California 40,000,000,000 (billion) dollars.

Assemblyman Curt Hagman, R-Chino Hills says "Here today we don't have enough slots for all the students in California who want to attend our great institutions, there just aren't enough. So until the federal government makes immigration reform a priority and tackles that, what are we doing? We're offering false promises." Hagman also pointed out that the while the illegal students might end up with a degree it is still illegal for them to work in the state of California.

Democrats in CA are hoping this will help force the federal dream act through and pressure Obama to deal with the immigration issue. By deal with I mean giving amnesty to up to 50 million illegal aliens that invaded our Country and will be rewarded for disregarding our laws. I don't know any other place on earth that does that, and if I did I would avoid that place at all cost.

Daily X-tra

I was reading an article from the Canadian Globe and Mail, and was pleasantly surprised to read that our northern neighbors are starting to get a clue on electric cars.  That clue being they are not green, not clean and not feasible for society. All these tree huggers driving their electric cars seem to forget the charge for these short range power suckers comes from power plants, most of which burn coal. The article doesn't even get into battery cost and how many batteries you need. Not to mention the cost of disposing of the batteries every 3-5 years that they have to be replaced (same issue for hybrids btw). Something to think about before you go and buy one of these stupid cars.

Daily X-tra

I know since the Amazon thing went down I haven't been blogging. Some of it was Amazon and some of it was a weird burnout. In order to get back into posting, I've decided to do a daily mini post just to keep me posting.


Today's X-tra shines some light on some California craziness; So you are headed out for the evening and you call the neighbor girl to come over and watch little Johnny for a few hours. She's 18 fresh out of high school and happy to sit on your couch, eat your ice cream and watch your kid 3 hours for $20. But a new bill in Calif. Assembly bill 889 (sponsored solely by democrats) is getting fast tracked and will mean for every 2 hours of babysitting the neighbor girl (we'll call her Mandy) needs a 15 min break and minimum wage. Oh and if you are late be prepared to shell out overtime and pray Mandy doesn't get hurt tripping on little Johnny's skateboard, that's workers comp. God forbid Mandy sneaks Bobby over and gets knocked up, then there's maternity leave. Yeah I'd rather take little Johnny with me. Read details at theunion.com

  • If we're going to lose our AAA credit rating anyway and we know it's a fallacy that we can't make our payments, I say don't raise the debt ceiling. Force Obama to cut spending in order to pay the bills each month till we have a balanced budget.
  • Seems like the end of the world guy was wrong, according to CNN and MSNBC the world will end Aug 2nd id the debt ceiling isn't raised.
  • Did anyone else not know Amy Winehouse was Jewish until her funeral?
  • Funny how Obama has taken such a huge interest in the "debt crisis" over the last 4 weeks, I seem to remember posting about it here 4 months ago.
  • McDonald's caved to the First Lady's crazy power and is now including apples in their Happy Meals instead of french fries. I guess they should change the name to Pissed Off Kid Meals.
  • The Norway shooter/bomber's max jail sentence is 21 years, if we could see into hell right now we'd see Timothy McVeigh jumping up and down saying WTF?
  • I saw Captain America today, it was pretty good. Nice to see a pro-America movie. *Spoiler*- At the end Cap superman punches Obama... Wait maybe I fell asleep.
  • Republicans always talk about how important "Business Experience" is and how "politics as usual" messes thins up, so how come they are so quick to dismiss Herman Cain as just "some guy that worked in a pizza place"?
  • Democrats are funny, when you bring up Reagan they say how much they hate him and everything he did and stood for. Until they want to compare Obama to how great he was. Make up your minds!

No Future?

A few days ago the space shuttle Atlantis landed on Earth for the last time. With that we (the USA) have retired our fleet (what's left of it) of shuttles and ended the American space program almost completely. NASA is a former shell of what it once was, devoting more time to climate change (a hoax) and making nice with muslims (that don't care). American, might, industry, ingenuity and pride are being swept out to sea. Thanks partly to the Bush and mostly to the Obama administration's murdering of our economy. 


The cost of the entire Apollo program and the Shuttle program combined is right at 400 billion dollars*. While  four of five years ago that may have seemed like a lot of money, keep in mind that Obama's failed stimulus that was supposed to keep unemployment under 8.5% cost 800 billion. So for half the cost of the stupid so called stimulus we put men on the moon and space ships going back and forth for 30 years. Add the ISS (international space station, that's called international but essentially we paid for and built the whole thing and let other countries paint their flag on.) in for another 100 billion and it's still sad. The future lies in space and America is giving the future away to China and Russia.


Russia is celebrating, they are now the kings of space and we have to pay them millions of dollars to take our astronauts out to the ISS. Far less glamorous than our shuttle, the principle of Russia's Soyuz rocket and capsule system for sending humans into space has changed little since Yuri Gagarin became the first man in orbit in 1961. Yep we're flying in over fifty year old Russian tech. But it's not that bad, last year they switched the Soyuz capsule from an anolog computer to a digital. Yeah last year...

So the question whether space exploration is really desirable at a time when so much needs doing on here on Earth comes to mind? It is a serious question that requires a serious answer. There are many arguments, from jobs and education to technology development and national security, for keeping us in space. Though one argument stands out, that argument is exploration, and that we should continue to challenge ourselves for the one basic reason; self-preservation as a free creative, intelligent society. As opposed to a stagnating, socialist slave society.

Not Gone

So last Wednesday California decided to join the growing list of states attempting to collect sales tax from web retailers to help find a way to close the state's black hole of a budget. Amazon.com on Tuesday sent me an email warning me that if California passed the law come 9/30/11 they would cut off their affiliate program, but Wed immediately after law passed they sent me another email saying my store was closed and my affiliate links were dead.

California's new law, signed by Governor Jerry Brown on Wednesday, requires online retailers to collect sales tax even if they have no physical presence in the state. How does that work when federal law states they have to have a brick-and-mortar store to qualify? My store had no bricks or mortar. Like the many other states before it, California counts Amazon affiliates who reside in California as a "physical presence." So, my personal blog with affiliate links to Amazon products (you know being unemployed, helped me to make a few bucks on the side), means I am effectively "selling" Amazon products and making money from them via my home in California.

You can go back and check it, I warned you that Gov. Moonbeam would be a bad rerun for California and he is living up to his name. The revenue loss from Amazon alone will be somewhere around $100 million. Not to mention all the small businesses that had to close. Timing couldn't be worse since today the new job report came out and unemployment is up to 9.2%.

It took me a while to decide if I would continue blogging at all. But I'm not gone, I will keep plugging away. If you like my blog and feel like contributing, please click the "Donate" button on the top right side of this screen.

His Time Is Up

Yesterday Obama said his family aren't "invested" in him being president and they would have been OK if he decided against running for re-election. The narcissist and chief still claims he is doing this "For the Country". Mrs.O says that she'd be OK with a less stressful job for her husband. I say let him be unemployed, let him feel the sting of eating nothing but rice and canned tuna for a few months. I am perfectly OK with Barack H. Obama being a one term president. I'm on the Herman Cain train right now, but reality is I don't care which Republican wins the nomination. Anybody but Obama!

Also yesterday at a "Jobs Counsel", Obama had the audacity to crack a joke about the lack of jobs and chuckled along with his new bosom buddy Jeff Imelt from GE. I hope they had had a good time laughing at my expense along with the other 24.2 million people in this country who are unemployed. The Obama administration promised the the stimulus would prevent the jobless rate from going over 8%. It now stands at 9.1% which of course is a doctored number with the actual being more like 17%. 


Recently after posting an old video from Steven Crowder about the disarray that is the city of Detroit MI. and citing that the whole country would follow if we don't oust Obama, a friend of mine from Canada said I was scapegoating. Now I know that Bush bears some of the responsibility of this seemingly never ending recession, but the majority of our problems lie squarely on Obama's shoulders and it is not scapegoating to place the blame where it belongs. Obama's Keynesian policies have put the US in a deep hole and no amount of government growth or spending will fix it. Two weeks ago I finished reading Atlas Shrugged (if you haven't read it, read it!), the climax of that story is by far the worst case scenario, but to say we are not on that track is only fooling yourself. The History Channel has been running commercials about fallen empires and then cuts to a shot of the US Capitol, it can happen, no one wants to believe it, but our society is degrading fast and if the mob fights breaking out at coffee shops and fast food joints don't scare you, know it will only get worse. 


I'm not saying Obama is the anti-christ or on some sort of quest to destroy the nation. But I will say he is a fool, and if we continue to follow this fool the blame for where he takes us is ours alone. Start now, educate yourself on the candidates and their policies. There is a good range out there. If you're more moderate look at Romney. If you're a Constitutionalist look at Paul. And of course if you are ultra conservative there are a few choices for you.   Read up, watch the debates and make sure that when the time come in November 2012 you are on board to save this Great Nation.


Now you know all know or will now that I hate Leno and Letterman and I'm not a huge fan of Conan O'Brien, but his graduation speech at Dartmouth this year was pretty darned good. Watch and take some of his inspiration into your tomorrow.

War Protesters! Where?





When George Bush invaded Afghanistan the war protesters were there, when he invaded Iraq the numbers exploded. War protesters were demonstrating across the country. Holding signs that cursed Bush, his family and even calling for him to be hung. Bush also caught a lot of flak for supporting Israel, even though he did very little to help them.

Today, though winding down we still have troops in Iraq. And if you've been watching the news you know they are still dying. Afghanistan is a complete mess, we have no strategy, no plan to win or even an exit. We have dropped bombs and killed Bin Laden in Pakistan. Months not days later we are still in Libya, without congressional approval by the way and it's not winding down either, boots on the ground is inevitable. Now we are dropping bombs in Yemen. But surprise, surprise the protesters are no where to be found.

No one should be surprised by this. The double standard is so obvious here. When it's a Republican he can do no good, and a Democrat can do no wrong. The MSM is complicit in this as well, during the Bush administration there were daily updates on how many soldiers died. When's the last time you saw a body count on CNN?

Basically if you were one of those pacifist that I argued with at school who said war in never right while Bush was in office but are somehow too busy to protest Obama, go take a flying you know what at a rolling donut.

UPDATE: Two more soldiers were killed in Iraq today, and after checking the whole front page of nbc news, I guess it wasn't important enough.

Not In The News

In my last post I mentioned Syrians rushing the Israeli border as distraction from the Syrian government massacring it's own people. While that hasn't stopped, (there is new graphic video at Big Peace to prove it) it now seems like the Syrians are just multi-tasking.

Recent intel coming out of Syria says the government is paying farmers who make an average of two hundred dollars a month one thousand dollars to rush the Israeli border. With an extra ten thousand if you are killed in the process, to go to the family. Though seeing what they do to their own people, I wouldn't really expect the govt to pay up. With this new tactic of sending "unarmed" people swarming on the border look for new calls of human rights violations against Israel. Even though if you rush any other country's border (i.e. Mexico, all of Europe, all of the Asia, really the whole world except maybe the U.S.) you will be shot on sight. But this area specifically holds importance.

The Golan Heights, which has been a often fought for chunk of land is currently in the possession of Israel. While Obama would have Israel return Golan to Syria, it is a strategic defense point for Israel. Notice the word heights, Golan is a small mountainous are right at the border. As any strategist will tell you high ground is key to defense. By keeping a close watch from Golan Israel can see any Syrian activity coming and can defend itself properly. If Israel were to give up Golan the Syrians would have easy access to Northern Israel.

The north-east is just another of Israel's problems, when you're surrounded by enemies on all sides you'd better have your head on a swivel.

  • Does anyone else thing Syria is starting border issues with Israel to take the attention off of them slaughtering their own people?
  • If the ecoli outbreak in Europe has taught us anything it is eat less vegetables.
  • Speaking of food, Big Sister Mrs.Obama has dumped the food pyramid for myplate, someone should tell her myspace is old news. I don't know who I dislike more her or her husband.

Two Men



The geniuses over at Weasel Zippers stuck up the picture below, and I felt it shows exactly the problem we have in America today. With Obama openly admitting to using marijuana and cocaine in is younger life (though no constant jokes and slams flowing out of the media like they did to Bush), it is clear that while not a requirement military service is super important. I know that my candidate of choice right now, Herman Cain did not serve, but he did work for the Navy developing weapons. Benjamin Netanyahu exudes leadership, while Obama well... doesn't.
Just take a few moments and study these pictures.

The same men from above, in their twenties.

  • Yep they are re-booting The Flinstones and I have no response to that...

Only Friend Part II

On Tuesday my last blog post was about defending Israel, little did I know that just 2 days later The President of the United States would throw his support to the Palestinians and turn his back on our only friend in the middle east. For the first time since the State of Israel was created, the POTUS has abandoned our ally in favor of the muslim terrorist group Hamas. We really should have seen this coming, backing the muslim brotherhood in Egypt should have been a big clue. By telling Israel to drop dead Obama has shown his true colors and as I posted on twitter; the years of exposure in his raising, schooling, churching, community organizing and politics have ingrained Antisemitism into Obama and he can't hide it any longer.

Obama’s demand for Israel to return to its 1967 borders, displaces over 300,000 Israeli citizens from nearly half of the country. What right does Obama (who speaks for us all) have to make 300,000 people of another country homeless? What right does Obama have to involve himself in Israel’s affairs? What right does Obama have to demand an ally give up its own territory won in a defensive war, when it was attacked without provocation, from all sides, by multiple countries? What right does Obama have to give away the land Israel needs to defend themselves from Hamas missiles and terrorist attacks? What if Obama’s interposing leads to the destruction of Israel and the death of millions of innocent Israelis? With friends like this, Israel no longer needs enemies.

Thursday Obama made it clear he hates Israel and doesn’t care what the American people think or want. I am hoping that this will secure him a loss in the 2012 election. I hope Jewish voters will see the light and never again feel the same about Obama or Democrats that support this craziness. Obama’s biggest mistake was crossing religious voters, over 90% of America connects itself to Judeo-Christian values. It is the same Judeo-Christian voters that elect Presidents. And almost 100 million evangelical Christians who love Israel will now vote and donate to Obama’s opponents with a fervor and passion of a patriotic group on a mission to save America and Israel from destruction. And that is exactly where Obama is taking us.

Since President Obama cannot be relied on, we have to speak up as individuals to let Israel know we support them and care about their future. A middle east without Israel will not have peace. Without Jews to pick on the muslims will focus on Christians. When the Christians are gone they will just keep going farther and farther till they get to you, where ever you are. Do you really think a muslim earth is a peaceful one? If you keep throwing your friends under the bus, soon you will be surrounded by enemies. 


Here's what the great Gene Simmons has to say on the subject.

Only Friend

Many of you know that this time last year I was living in Jerusalem in the Old City a mere two minute walk from the Western Wall or as we call it the Kotel. While I was there I witnessed first hand how the Palestinians act on a daily basis. While some seemed like friendly normal people most of the ones I came in contact with were angry and prone towards violence. The two times I walked through the Arab Quarter of the Old City I had rocks thrown at me by adults and children. I also saw the "Protest", more rock throwing along with tire burning and yelling at police. To disperse the crowds before things got too violent the police used tear gas. I watched the media there filming the "poor protesters" running away from the gas only to either stop running right after they passed the camera or even walk their children into the gas only to come running out in front of the camera.

I mention this because of the new current "Protest" that are taking place in Israel. This new tactic of bombarding the borders with unarmed protesters is just another way of chiseling at Israel's defenses. According to Fox News this is only the beginning, kind of a test run, and we will see more of these in greater numbers in the near future. Sunday's unrest occurred as the Palestinians marked the "nakba," or "catastrophe" this is the (peace partner) term they use to describe their defeat in the war that followed Israel's founding on May 15, 1948 when Israel stomped the armies of surrounding Arab states as well as local Arabs who attacked just hours after the Jewish state was declared.

The Prime Minister of Hamas (the terrorist organization that runs the Palestinian Authority) Haniyeh who claims to want peace with Israel said yesterday that he "prays for an end to Israel" and that Hamas will never acknowledge Israel's right to exist. Of course in the same speech he said they will recognize the name of "The State of Israel" so good luck trying to figure out what that means.

The Obama Administration has been changing our relationships in the middle east. Obama has alienated our only true friend in the middle east by endorsing regime change in Egypt that has given that country over to the Muslim Brotherhood. Condemned Israel for protecting itself and looked the other way as Iran continues to build nuclear weapons and threaten Israel's safety. Now my definition of friend doesn't fit with what Obama is doing there. We need speak out as a people and remind the administration that we have one true friend in the middle east and supporting them should be our primary concern. Not coddling countries run by dictators or terrorist, but standing up to them and telling them that the USA and Israel with stand together to stop the madness by whatever means necessary.

Glenn Beck is planning another big rally, this time in Jerusalem. He wants all faiths to come together and take a stand, not just for Israel but for the world. “I invite you to join me in Israel this summer to stand together and show the world what living a life of faith and honor really means. I invite you to join me in my quest to Restore Courage,” Glenn said. Courage is lacking in society today. We see glimmers here and there, even from Obama who made the call to take out bin Laden, of course it took him three days to make the decision, but he made the right call. We see other instances of courage all over, but it is time that courage becomes a fore-stand not just something we summon as a last resort.

News, Not News

Since the bin Laden killing certain things just haven't been making much news. There are two topics I want to mention specifically and on that is getting some headlines, just not the right kind.

First off is Libya, other than an air strike or two the news hasn't said much of anything going on in our third war kinetic military action. There is no word on how the rebels are doing, what cities they control or don't control and somehow I doubt the occasional strike on Kadoofy's house is the only bombs we're dropping. Last I heard England was talking about sending in ground forces. The running theory in my house is all the rebels are gone, either dead or just went home and the whole war action is us. From what I read the whole rebel force at it's height was only 1200 guys, not quite what most people outside of Libya had in mind.

The second is the split forming between Ahmadinejad and Khamenei in Iran. For years now Khamenei has kept Ahmadinejad around, most thought as a puppet, and now Ahmadinejad wants to be a real boy err chihuahua or whatever he is. This week Ahmadinejad returned to work after a ten day "vacation" which seemed more like a union style strike. A power struggle between Iran’s top leaders could really shake the Islamic Republic to the core, "with no sign that its hardline president can regain the trust of conservative politicians and clerics", analysts say. We've known for a while now the K had some issues with A, it came to a head recently when K decided to let go of some of A's cabinet members. A tried to have them reinstated but K put his foot down and that's what sent A on his "vacation". You can read some more over at Pajamas but I just thought you'd like to know.

The last thing that's bugging me is Obama's re-energized presidency that seems to be just a big campaign tactic. In the last year President Obama was starting to look more like Senator Obama, voting present but not doing a whole lot more. But in the last month since he's announced that he's back on the campaign trail he seems to be awake and alert. Maybe because campaigning is the only thing he's good at. Obama is taking the awesome three point bump his approval rating got after sending bin Laden to hell where he belongs and steam rolling that into immigration reform. Now since he didn't pass this when he had a super majority I figure he was waiting for now, so he can look good to the fastest growing voter bloc, Hispanics. We know that Congress isn't going to pass any kind of reform but that's what Obama wants. He will put an idea, Congress will shoot it down and he will look like the hero and the Republicans will be taking on the villain role as usual. Remember always watch the other hand, Obama is an illusionist and nothing he says can be taken at face value.

  • Why does OBL need an islamic burial if he wasn't a welcome member of the religion and why should be be concerned about what muslims think if they've disavowed him?
  • If you're feeling far from God, remember it's not God who moved away.
  • Between the birth certs and OBL, I hope someone is watching what Obama's other hand is doing.
  • A wise man once told me "If you smile every time you look in the mirror some will always be smiling back at you".
  • Today I threw away 2 pounds of junk mail, why don't the tree huggers care about that?
  • I know Trump is in the news, but if you're looking for a real conservative candidate to rival Obama please have a look at Herman Cain.
  • Now that I've been using a stand up desk for 3 months or so I would definitely suggest it for everyone.
  • Maybe we always look at the big picture because we are avoiding the small ones.
  • So I've been unemployed for five months now, that means after next month, according to Obama, I won't count towards unemployment because I'm no longer looking. Wrong again Obama.
  • Another wise man told me "The trouble with being a good sport is you have to lose to prove it."

We Got Him

By now you have all probably heard that the U.S. military killed Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan. I just wanted to give my 2 cents real quick.


It's being reported that some of the intel (if not all) on OBL's location came from detainees at Gitmo. While I give President Obama credit for giving the order to get OBL if he had closed gitmo like he said "On my first day in office" we wouldn't have got the information. 


This has been a long time coming, too long, but as the world takes a sigh of relief we have to remember that OBL was just one of potentially millions of muslims that hate the US and want to see her fall. We have to stay vigilant and keep fighting. 


 The picture above is a great shot of the FDNY celabrating the news of OBL's trip to hell. The picture below is a tribute to the guys that put him there! God Bless America, the US Military and tonight especially the Navy SEALs!

Finally

Now I have never been a "Birther", I knew this day would come, I just didn't figure Donald Trump as the cause of it. After all these years and all the media buzz it just seems like Obama would have held on to this for a better moment, I guess he really feels threatened by Trump and that is the bigger bombshell of the day. 


Over the years my friends and I have figured that this was a planned red herring, Obama let this go because anyone that talked about where he was born wasn't talking about the damage he is doing to the Country. It also let the media and others label people as crazy "Birthers" and filled countless hours of news babble, again with BS instead of how Obama was driving this our Country into the ground. Think about how many people got sucked under the birther bus might have actually had something poignant to say but fell for Obama's trap. Really you have to give Obama (or the actual guy who came up with this, I'm thinking Rahm) credit for running with this scam. 


Now I know the hardcore birther element will probably keep this going till Obama is gone and long after. But for everyone else this is just one more thing out of the way that Obama can't hide behind. He has to go the rest of his term and the new campaign without this cozy little smokescreen hiding what he's actually doing. I'm sure he has other things lined up (or not since Rahm is gone), other ways to try and keep us away from his real agenda. 


So here it is if you haven't seen it already. Obama's mother Stanley was "Punished" with a child when she was a teenager, and I bet you Jr. is happy she didn't take the easy way out.

3 Reasons - Trump

I know many of you think Donald Trump is a joke when it comes to presidential nominees, and if the republicans had, or even looked like they were going to put up someone better, I wouldn't be able to write this. I've been very clear that the "front runners" in the republican field cannot beat Obama. The polls prove it, head to head polls between Trump and the potential GOP field, Trump trumps them all. This is not an endorsement, I still believe Herman Cain is best man for the job, though I acknowledge his chances are slim.


So the first thing is not his hair, as much as it's oddly interesting the polls are more. Like I mentioned above, the poll shows the audacious real estate tycoon and reality TV show host posting a whopping nine point lead on his nearest competitor. In the latest recent survey the Donald is running strong in the GOP field, and by strong I mean way out front. Trump brought in a hefty 26% of the vote, followed by Mike Huckabee 17%, Mitt Romney 15%, Newt Gingrich 11%, Sarah Palin 8%, Ron Paul earned 5%, while Michele Bachmann and Tim Pawlenty took 4% each.


Next, I believe that people who are best suited for political offices are those that care about their community and country. They have a deep passion for serving the people's shared interest, and are deeply experienced in public service. They are educated. They are a God fearing. They are vibrant, and brilliant people with incredible ideas and motivation. But since Ronald Reagan is long gone and Zombie Reagan is only in science fiction, we might have to start looking elsewhere. You don't get into public office anymore by being smart, talented, and a bold speaker; you get into public office by being rich, pretty, or popular. Trump has two of the three and that ain't bad.

Last thing is democrats don't like him, Harry Reid said he's not presidential material, that helps in my book. When the main lame stream media goes nutto I know I'm seeing something good.  Take the new Atlas Shrugged movie, the msm is really going out of it's way to slam a movie that is being released on 300 screens nation wide. That tell me I want to see it. Trump is everything Obama is not and that is the most important thing.

  • If I eat radioactive sushi I'd better end up with super powers, though Salmon Man does't sound as cool as Spider Man.
  • Obama said "Get used to high gas prices", I say don't get used to being President!
  • So Brazil's first school shooting was by a muslim, this is my surprised face *__*
  • Now that I own one I don't blame Obama for never putting down his Crackberry!
  • The good side to working as a bouncer is not having to pay those crazy cover charges.
  • Everyone I know that jogs or runs tells me how much they love doing it. Now that I've started; I think everyone of them is a LIAR.
  • After telling people "It might be time to trade in those SUVs" Obama got into an argument with a guy because they guy said he has a big family (and needs a big vehicle). Obama response, "Your families not that big!" Who the hell does he think he is? I think Obama forgot who he works for!

Used To Be

I was reading an article today about GM recalling 2100 Chevrolet Cruzes due to their steering wheels coming off while people are driving! While it's only a small number of cars, it's a big problem. I thought about what American unions used to produce 30+ years ago and I felt sick, we used to be great. There was a time when American cars were the top of the line and you could drive them forever. It was normal to rack up 2 or even 3 hundred thousand miles, with proper maintenance though sometimes not even that, even mistreated Chevy or Dodge trucks were reliable well after the odometer ticked 200,000. 


But as the unions got bigger the quality started to suffer. By the late 70's American cars were a joke and that's how they stayed until the late 90's. The "Big 3" started mounting a comeback, but cafe standards, the push for eco-friendly cars that no one wanted and shoddy work combined with the greedy unions and the greed of the companies themselves started them down a path to a painful crash that sent all of the Big 3 towards bankruptcy. While it is possible (as we saw later) for big companies to survive bankruptcy the Obama administration lumped them in to the "too big to fail" list and offered them tax-payer funded bail outs. 2 of the Big 3 took Obama's money and subsequently went bankrupt anyway. Ford stood their ground and with some major restructuring and very risky gambles came through better than ever. GM and Chrysler were bought up by the Govt and then sold chunks off to foreign companies or just straight given chunks to the unions. 


So now the once great American Chrysler Motors is now mostly Italian with the unions hold a chunk and General Motors is now Government Motors, the name wasn't officially changed but we know. That means if you want a American car built by a private American company you have one choice Ford, and Ford is looking good.  


When you have Union assembly line employees smoking weed and pounding 22′s on their lunch break, as video evidence proved just recently, is it any wonder those cars are falling apart? Try free market capitalism where terminations occur for sub-par performance and raises are awarded based on above par performance this will produce better cars.

Our country is in the same shape as this Chevy car with the faulty steering wheel. We've now had 2+ years of Obama basically jerking the steering wheel right off, in the process wanting us to drive our cars Flintstone-style. Gas is now 60+% higher since he took office, the debt has sky-rocketed, our standing in the world is diminished, social spending is at an all-time high, true unemployment is something like 25% or more, businesses are suffering due to uncertainty, and we all sit here wondering what’s going to happen next. 

Zero leadership, zero original thought, we’re suffering under a left-wing ideologue in Obama and the previous Congress. Let’s face it! the leftists have been simply following all the failed policies of other leftists of the past. We’re left holding the bill and wondering where our country is going other than down the toilet. Kinda feels like holding the steering column tight while hoping somebody can slow down the car before we careen off the ever-approaching cliff.

I still have hope, not Obama's hope, but hope that America can one day return to our roots. Be the country our Founding Fathers wanted us to be. Like we used to be.

Just Saying

  • Since the Republicans don't seem to have an answer, if Hillary runs she will be the first Democrat I vote for.
  • You know it's 2011, I was expecting more robots.
  • Everyone keeps telling me I will change my mind on not wanting kids. Let me be clear, it's not going to happen.
  • If you thought burning the koran pissed the muslims off, try getting them to wear this t-shirt.
  • We have fools year around, DC is proof of that, why is April so special?
  • Honestly I would vote for Donald Trump over Huckabee, Palin, Romney and Pawlenty.
  • I love how everyone is surprised at Obama's lack of leadership. I could see this coming, think about how many times he voted "Present".

And Crown Thy Good

We live in a great Country, I know this, you know this ( I hope). Often you hear in the MSM that we are spoiled, or arrogant, or even some kind of imperialist. But it's not that we aren't aware of what's happening in the rest of the world. We chose to be better, I know it's not PC to call ourselves better, but it is simple truth. Our Founding Fathers saw the world and wanted better. They built a free nation on a foundation of God. 235 years later we are the reigning super power (if Obama doesn't break us), we are looking to keep that position for a long time.


We have to be doing something right, to come as far as we did as fast as we did. The greatness of this Country is due to God and us, we represent the best of humanity. Sure we've had some dark moments and we have plenty of nuts, 25% of us think we had a hand in the tragedy of 9/11. The fact that we allow those nuts to have their crazy ideas just shows what a strong will we have. We don't have to root out the crazies, we embrace them. We have God given rights and rights established by men to guarantee our freedoms. The majority of us are good honest people who see the American dream and want to make it our own. Holding ourselves to a higher standard that started with the Ten Commandments and grew into a Constitution that in a few pages summed up our entire way of life.


Now our way of life is being threatened by terrorism, socialism and a few more 'isms. We have seen what evil and jealousy can do and we have to remember what Simon Wiesenthal said "Freedom is not a gift from heaven... You must fight for it everyday." Does this mean we have to take up arms? For some yes, another great thing about us is our military, an all volunteer fighting force that is unmatched across the globe. For the rest of us it means living the way God commands, voting wisely and electing the right people to run our government. Raising our children to observe the same values and take responsibility for their actions. 


Again I think about Glenn Beck's 9-12 project and I can't help but think this is our only real hope. It simply best states what we need to do as a Nation to maintain our strength and survive the coming insurrection.

The 9 Principles

  1. America Is Good.
  2. I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.
    God “The propitious smiles of Heaven can never be expected on a nation that disregards the eternal rules of order and right which Heaven itself has ordained.” from George Washington’s first Inaugural address.
  3. I must always try to be a more honest person than I was yesterday.
    Honesty “I hope that I shall always possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider to be the most enviable of all titles, the character of an honest man.” George Washington
  4. The family is sacred. My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government.
    Marriage/Family “It is in the love of one’s family only that heartfelt happiness is known. By a law of our nature, we cannot be happy without the endearing connections of a family.” Thomas Jefferson
  5. If you break the law you pay the penalty. Justice is blind and no one is above it.
    Justice “I deem one of the essential principles of our government… equal and exact justice to all men of whatever state or persuasion, religious or political.” Thomas Jefferson
  6. I have a right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, but there is no guarantee of equal results.
    Life, Liberty, & The Pursuit of Happiness “Everyone has a natural right to choose that vocation in life which he thinks most likely to give him comfortable subsistence.” Thomas Jefferson
  7. I work hard for what I have and I will share it with who I want to. Government cannot force me to be charitable.
    Charity “It is not everyone who asketh that deserveth charity; all however, are worth of the inquiry or the deserving may suffer.” George Washington
  8. It is not un-American for me to disagree with authority or to share my personal opinion.
    On your right to disagree “In a free and republican government, you cannot restrain the voice of the multitude; every man will speak as he thinks, or more properly without thinking.” George Washington
  9. The government works for me. I do not answer to them, they answer to me.
    Who works for whom? “I consider the people who constitute a society or a nation as the source of all authority in that nation.” Thomas Jefferson
