The Day After Tomorrow

Yeah I know this is hitting late, I am very good at procrastinating...


The midterms have passed, the outcome was favorable, mostly. I watched the coverage all day, not to mention twitter which kept my phone beeping for hours. I split my time time between the three major news outlets Foxnews, CNN and MSNBC. I am not a fan of the latter two, but I have to do something while fox is in commercial. The outcomes were pretty much what was expected, my prediction was 59 house and 9 senate and I was close. Though being from California I have some serious disappointment to deal with.


Fox's coverage was exemplary, they stayed very close to their "Fair and Balanced" motto. They featured a litany of contributors from both sides of the aisle and did it without showing much for bias. CNN tries, but the overall dislike of the GOP still shines through in their delivery. The coverage was solid overall and they served their purpose of filling time while fox was on commercial. MSNBC was despicable, the openly hateful and bitter Matthews and Maddow cringed at every GOP gain and used the losses to make fun of and poke at the opposition. Which makes it no surprise FOX dominated the rating of the night with CNN in a far second and MSNBC behind them. 


The pick up in the Congress was nothing short of a slaughter, rebuking Obama and all the outrageous spend him and Congress has been doing for the past six years, yes six. Nancy Pelosi took over six years ago, and while Bush had made some bad call before that, things went really down hill in his second term. The GOP pick up is definitely a referendum, but not a open door for the republicans to go back to the pre-Obama ways. The tea party intervened on behalf of the people, people who wanted the GOP remember its roots and what used to make them different form the democrats. Small govt, low taxes, stern control of our borders, our common language and culture (hat tip to Michael Savage). If the GOP doesn't remember and return from it's senility it just might have to be tied to a tree and well you know the rest.


My biggest disappointment lies with California who somehow let Barbara Boxer keep her senate seat and re-install Jerry Brown, yes Moonbeam himself to the seat of Governor. Not too mention ninety percent of the props that went wrong. California is stuck on stupid. Arnold was the worst kind of RINO and he did the same amount of damage or maybe even more the Gray Davis. Boxer is known throughout the Nation as the dumbest person in the senate, I knew she would be terrible for California from the first time I met her, that would be when she came to visit my high school many moons ago. I love California, I have lived in New York, Jerusalem, and have spent shorter amounts of time in other places and none stack up to California, her beaches, mountains, deserts and forest are amazing and the weather is awesome. But the govt intrusion into peoples lives is through the roof and everyday I want to be here less and less. Why should I be driven from the place I love by socialist?


The next two years will be crucial to this country and the direction it goes. Times will be hard, we have to break our addiction to unlimited spending, the withdrawals will be painful but if we don't go through it that crazy future commercial depicting the Chinese ruling over us might just come to fruition.

Defending a Democrat? Yes!

For some time now I have been watching Juan Williams as a commentator on Fox News, very little have I ever agreed with anything he has said and I have never read or heard anything he has done for NPR (national public radio). NPR in my eyes has always been an outlet for hard left wing diatribe and overt socialist commentary. The idea that the taxpayers are forced to support such an idealogical organization has always been a bit disturbing. but now that NPR has fired Williams for "controversial" statements he made about muslims on The Factor I am in full de-fund mode.


First for the sake of clarity here is Williams' statement; "I mean, look, Bill, I’m not a bigot. You know the kind of books I've written about the civil rights movement in this country. But when I get on the plane, I got to tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim garb and I think, you know, they are identifying themselves first and foremost as Muslims, I get worried. I get nervous." I guess honesty is not the best policy at NPR.  


NPR said in it's statement that Williams' remarks; “were inconsistent with our editorial standards and practices, and undermined his credibility as a news analyst with NPR.” So being open and honest is inconsistent with NPR's standards? What exactly are they saying here? It seems freedom of speech and expression are not welcome at a station that is being partially funded by taxpayer dollars. It's time to stop paying for NPR's rhetoric. The First Amendment is for everyone, right or left, black or white, Jew or Gentile, right or wrong.


Maybe Fox News should offer Williams a full time job? Fox News seems to be the only news outlet that can live up to their mission statement, "Fair and Balanced".


UPDATE:
NPR now says Williams was fired for going on conservative TV - "Williams' presence on the largely conservative and often contentious prime-time talk shows of Fox News has long been a sore point with NPR News executives." (linked to NPR).


UPDATE II:
Fox just signed Williams to a $2Mil job!


  

Hello America!

I just can't believe how fast we are slipping into outright communism. Obama is not so slowly nationalizing banking, automobile production, student loans and health care. He says judge him by the people he surrounds himself with and files in Van Jones, Anita Dunn, Cas Susstein, Buffy Wicke and ACORN. All of whom identify themself as either socialist or looking to Mao for political guidance.

In California the "Republican" governor recently signed a bill that would require a thumb print and photo ID to purchase ammunition, which I am sure the rest of the Country will follow soon, by making it harder for LEGAL gun owners to buy ammo they are one step closer to the nazi style gun bans and registration hitler had laid out to keep his people under his thumb. It doesn't matter which of the Bill of Rights goes down first be it the second amendment or the fourth once one goes the rest will fall like dominoes.

In the soviet union the state controled the newspaper and it only printed the news the state wanted put out there ignoring the real stories. Here in the USA this is being reborn by the mainstream media (MSM) which is completely devoted to Comrade Obama and badmouthing FOXNEWS the only media outlet that dares to say anything dissenting. Which I might add was encouraged by Nancy Pelosi during the Bush years, but now people who dissent are called a mob, nazis and unpatriotic. How are we supposed to trust the MSM when it's broadcaster get a "thrill up their leg" when Obama talks?

Taxes are sky high and rising with no end in sight. Taxes are being levied on things like juice, soda, sweets, cigarettes, and vegetables. Even with the biggest tax increase in American history the deficit is climbing to uncharted territory. Trillions of dollars of debt being left our children and grandchildren. While social security continues to die it's slow death and the cost of government run health care not even added in yet!

 Roman political philosopher Cicero spoke on the enemy within and how they attack the pillars of society. Have you noticed the pillars of our society being attacked? Police Officers who are doing their jobs attacked by the President himself on television. The Church being attacked on all sides from prayer, Bibles, the Ten Commandments and the name of GOD being removed from our pledge, money and buildings. This Country was built on Judeo-Christian foundation. Wise men who built this house upon a rock. Who over the last 233 years gave Glory and Prayers to God openly during speeches and were not ashamed. But in the last year we opened a WWII memorial with NO mention of God at all! How does this happen? All the great Presidents of the past Washington, Lincoln, FDR and Kennedy spoke of God and how they Prayed daily (there were many more, but these are the one even democrats call great).

 The people are already standing up, the 9/12 march in DC was most likely the largest in American history. Tea Parties are back and I say Samuel Addams would be proud to see what we are doing. I have been to several tea parties myself and intend on going to more. I will blog and make calls, vote when the time comes for real change. Because I have hope in America not the President. There is already a Savior in my life and his name is Jesus Christ not Barack Obama.
