The person shown below influenced Obama and helped form who he is today. Do we really think he believes in the American system? You decide if he was honest about his political leanings during the election.
Frank - through Frank Marshall Davis, Obama had an admitted relationship with someone who was publicly identified as a member of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA). The record shows that Obama was in Hawaii from 1971-1979, where, at some point in time, he developed a close relationship, almost like a son, with Davis, listening to his "poetry" and getting advice on his career path. But Obama, in his book, Dreams From My Father, refers to him repeatedly as just "Frank."

You Voted them Back In, Don't Bitch
I have been unable to write now for a number of days due to the depression that has set in about the economy and what caused it. I listen to the Democrats blame everything on the Republicans and soon to be ex-president Bush.
Some Republicans and yes President Bush gets some blame for what has happened. Bush should have got on a soapbox and screamed about the sleazy ongoings at Fannie/Freddie but didn't. He kept quiet and said almost nothing about the problems that were building. Chuck Hagle knew what was coming and tried to get laws passed that would tighten the controls. John McCain signed on the the bill but very late in the process and didn't speak loud enough about the criminal activity. All the while Chuck Hagle was trying, senators and congressman where being lobbied by Fannie/Freddie to keep the status quo. Barney Frank, Hillary Clinton, Chris Dodd, John Kerry, Barack H. Obama, and others never lifted a finger to rein in what was going on. The politicians (Democrats/Republicans) knew what was going own and allowed it to happen. Many of them even had the courage to get up on the house floor and praise what a good job Fannie/Freddie were doing. They also claimed the questioning of Fannie/Freddie leaders were racially based and had nothing to do with anything else. OUR GOVERNMENT turned a blind eye to the corruption that was happening.
They (our leaders) caused our economy to tank like it has and now "We the Stupid People" expect these seem leaders to fix the problem. Just how damn dumb are we to think the clowns that turned a blind eye to it before can help now.
The first bailout $700,000,000.00 billion was supposed to buy bad loans and then they added additional items such as Wooden Arrows, money for ACORN, and other items that had nothing to do with the mortgage industry. Can we spell PORK? Until WE stop them from wasting our money with earmarks for their private payoffs, nothing will change.
Unfortunately our elected senators and congressman become corrupt upon arriving in Washington and forget they were elected to work for us and the job they were elected to was only a temp job.
They (elected officials) are burying our country in debt that we will never get out of in my lifetime. How many of you voted for Obama knowing he was going to bury us in more debt then we can afford. Where does this stop?
It is too late for my company bailout and it has ruined not only my credit, but the credit of all my former employees. This can be directly traced the mortgage crisis and then to the financial industry which caused this all to happen. I have seen people who worked all their lives lose everything because of the governments inaction to control the mortgage industry. It was the governments job to oversee that industry and they didn't so "We the People" pay.
The ones who worked for Fannie and Freddie don't pay, they got payments in the millions while this was ongoing. They should be in jail for what they caused, instead they advised Barack Obama.

Well, the American people spoke at the last election and once again exhibited their stupidity by voting in the same people that allowed this to happen. For those 53% who did, don't bitch about what happens now, you voted them back.
For the people who had the good sense to try to change the government, work hard to replace people like Dodd, Pelosi, Reid and the rest of the bums.

Democrats Want Bad Loans Bought, are we NUTS
Lets try something the democrats have not thought about. Lets review the home loans that are or have gone bad before just buying them. Wouldn't it be nice to first see if 1) the people getting the loan were qualified and 2) see if there was lender misconduct. If it is learned their was lender misconduct, legal action should and must be taken to arrest and punish those who did. Any Banker, Mortgage Broker, Appraiser, or Realtor who assisted in qualifying people who shouldn't have been MUST be prosecuted fully. This also goes the other way too as borrowers who committed fraud while filing out their loan applications should also be prosecuted.
We must remember there were groups (Acorn) pushing lenders to make loans where they hadn't before and shouldn't have now. Then we have congress turning a blind eye while Fannie/Freddie over extended themselves which really meant the government (We the People) gave them a blanket ok to continue making unjustifiable loans. Remember them giving speech's supporting the leaders of these organizations all the time knowing they were making bad loans. Congress at that time figured the government (We the People) would just bail Fannie/Freddie out.
Well, they made a terrible mistake and have brought down a number of banks, business and maybe the country itself. What is worse, the same congress that allowed this to happen WERE VOTED BACK IN by a bunch of stupid Americans who are to lazy to look into who allowed this. Bush is just as guilty because he didn't use the bully pulpit to raise holy hell about what was going on. He stood quite and now they ALL wring there hands.
WE THE PEOPLE ARE GETTING IT STUCK TO US AGAIN, THANKS WASHINGTON

More on the Bailout
In watching the side show on TV today where the leaders of the small three were begging for money from "We the People" to bail our the unions and mismanagement. Listening to our political leaders was truly sad. I think the auto unions wrote some of the questions. Maybe puppets were standing in for the politicians but I didn't see any strings. No matter how much money we give them nothing will change. Until the unions are forced to rewrite their contracts and management is changed, they WILL be back asking for more money. Has everyone forgotten the auto makers have been in trouble for a number of years and GM has been the worst, always cutting this or that.
We need to let them go Chapter 11 and reorganize after the union contracts are broke. To think union members make over $70.00/hr in salary and benefits is truly sick. How many Americans would like to make half of that amount. I for one would love to make half that amount and I'll pay for my own health care.

Figure it up, if they work
40 hrs per week at $70/hr their gross (salary & benefits) amount will be:
$2800/wk,
$11,200/month,
$134,000/year salary & benefits.
Based on the above and remember this is low, does everyone now understand how salary and benefits have gotten out of hand. When I worked at Busch it was the same thing. Our salary, benefits and perks were out of site.
Research all auto makers and you will understand why American auto makers are having trouble. I vote no to a bail out and hope more Americans vote no and call their reps. to say so. Don't let the government waste more of our money as they are so very good at it.
What the Mainstream Won't Show US
Look to the right and you will see two pictures of the Largest Re-enlistment ever held but not covered nor mentioned by ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, or any other mainstream media. How can you trust them to be fair?
This was the largest re-enlistment ceremony ever held in military history. The ceremony was held on the 4th of July, 2008 at Al Faw Palace, Baghdad , Iraq . General David Petraeus officiated. This amazing story was ignored by the 'mainstream' media.
For those who have been in the Al Faw Palace, you'll have a better appreciation of the number of people crammed around the rotunda supporting the re-enlisting soldiers. American men and women volunteering to stay longer in Iraq, so that when we leave, the new democracy will have a chance of surviving, is the exact opposite of what the media wants you to think about Iraq. If only a bomb had killed 5 civilians in a marketplace - now that's the kind of news the media is eager to tell you about.
A pizzeria in Chicago donated 2000 pizzas that were made and shipped to Baghdad and were delivered on the 4th. The media did report that 2000 pizzas were sent to Iraq on July 4th... The only part they left out of the report was the event for which the pizzas were sent.

What would the opinion of Americans be if they weren't getting such obviously biased 'news?'
Taxes That Drinkers Understand
Economics 101
Our Tax System Explained:
Our Tax System Explained:
Bar Stool Economics Suppose that every day, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all ten comes to $100. If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this:
The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing.
The fifth would pay $1.
The sixth would pay $3.
The seventh would pay $7.
The eighth would pay $12.
The ninth would pay $18.
The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59.
So, that's what they decided to do.The ten men drank in the bar every day and seemed quite happy with the arrangement, until one day, the owner threw them a curve.
'Since you are all such good customers,' he said, 'I'm going to reduce the cost of your daily beer by $20.' Drinks for the ten now cost just $80.The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes so the first four men were unaffected. They would still drink for free. But; what about the other six men - the paying customers? How could they divide the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his 'fair share?'They realized that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody's share, then the fifth man and the sixth man would each end up being paid to drink his beer.
So, the bar owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each man's bill by roughly the same amount, and he proceeded to work out the amounts each should pay. And so:
The fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% savings).
The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33%savings).
The seventh now pay $5 instead of $7 (28%savings).
The eighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% savings).
The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% savings).
The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% savings).
Each of the six was better off than before. And the first four continued to drink for free. But once outside the restaurant, the men began to compare their savings. 'I only got a dollar out of the $20,'declared the sixth man. He pointed to the tenth man,' but he got $10! ''Yeah, that's right,' exclaimed the fifth man. 'I only saved a dollar, too. It's unfair that he got ten times more than I got' 'That's true!!' shouted the seventh man. 'Why should he get $10 back when I got only two? The wealthy get all the breaks! ''Wait a minute,' yelled the first four men in unison. 'We didn't get anything at all. The system exploits the poor!' The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up. The next night the tenth man didn't show up for drinks so the nine sat down and had beers without him. But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something important. They didn't have enough money between all of them for even half of the bill! And that, ladies and gentlemen, journalists and college professors, is how our tax system works.
The people who pay the highest taxes get the most benefit from a tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may not show up anymore. In fact, they might start drinking overseas where the atmosphere is somewhat friendlier. David R. Kamerschen, Ph.D.Professor of Economics University of GeorgiaFor those who understand, no explanation is needed.
For those who do not understand,
no explanation is possible, only our prayers.
Something to Lighten the Moment
A woman from Los Angeles, who was a tree hugger and an anti-hunter, purchased a piece of timberland, near Grants Pass, OR. There was a large tree on one of the highest points in the tract. She wanted a good view of the natural splendor of her land so she started to climb the big tree. As she neared the top she encountered a spotted owl that attacked her. In her haste to escape, the woman slid down the tree to the ground and got many splinters in her crotch.
In considerable pain, she hurried to the nearest doctor. She told him she was an environmentalist and an anti-hunter and how she came to get all the splinters. The doctor listened to her story with great patience and then told her to go into the examining room and he would see if he could help her. She sat and waited three hours before the doctor reappeared. The angry woman demanded, 'What took you so long?'
He smiled and then told her, 'Well, I had to get permits from the Environmental Protection Agency, the Forest Service, and the Bureau of Land Management before I could remove old-growth timber from a recreational area. I'm sorry, but they turned me down.'
GOD BLESS AMERICA

Could This Happen
Journalist predicts Obama will change voting rules

An author and editor believes conservatives probably don't realize just how difficult it might be to recover from the Barack Obama election victory.
Quin Hillyer is an associate editor at the Washington Examiner and senior editor of The American Spectator. He says the day after the big defeat, the conservative chatter was that the Obama election would allow Republicans and conservatives the chance to draw a sharp contrast with the Obama/Reid/Pelosi triumvirate, rally the faithful, and re-storm the castle in 2010 and 2012.

But in a column entitled "Saul Alinsky takes the White House," Hillyer writes: "Fat chance." "Saul Alinsky wrote something called Rules for Radicals -- which, by the way, was dedicated to Lucifer as the world's first radical," Hillyer notes. "[Alinsky argued that] you take power and then you change the rules so that once you've got power, it's very tough to get it away from you."
Hillyer says the Obama administration can change the rules in a number of ways, including empowering groups like ACORN -- the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, which was at the center of much pre-election debate about alleged voter fraud. "Now that [Obama's] in power, they will -- I'm sure -- change the election laws even more to make it even easier to register people and to let people vote without proper identification," he explains.
"They basically rig things at the ballot box -- that's number one. Number two, they will use the power of the state."
According to Hillyer, that involves using regulatory agencies like the Internal Revenue Service, the Environmental Protection Agency, and even the Justice Department to crack down on the administration's enemies.

Our Freedoms are Disappearing
As our freedoms slowly disappear you would think Americans would stand up and say no more. Tell our elected officials to follow the constitution but we won't. We have become a growing group of sheep being slowly taken to slaughter.
We listen to elected people say they know how to spend our money better then we do, they know how to invest our 401K funds better then we do, they know what is better for us with our medical care and it continues on. The arrogance in Washington DC is disgusting and growing worse.
Bill Clinton made the comment about government knowing how to spend our money better, now Pelosi is doing the same. People wake up, it is OUR money not the governments.They don't spend our money, they just flush it it away and we better wake up. Government wants to change our medical care to a socialized type of care. Ask Canadians why so many come here for care. They come here because their medical system KILLS them by delaying needed tests and surgery.
This is the same government that took our social security money and put it into the general funds so they could spend more. Yes, this happened years ago and now we are going to pay. These are the same people who paid $250 for a Toilet Seat, $75.00 for a regular Hammer, and so on.
Our leaders are elected to do the will of the people but they do the will of SPECIAL INTEREST, UNIONS, FRIENDS, LOBBYIST and anyone else made a large contribution. We they people are being shortchanged by OUR elected officials as they take OUR Rights. Pelosi wants to hold congress behind closed doors as We the People don't need to know what they are doing.
We must watch and listen closely or we will be no better then Russians. They have some illusion of freedom and we are headed that way. When Freedom becomes the illusion, I hope the American people will raise up and take our country back. Some of our parents, grandfathers, brothers, husbands, sisters, and wives have died to keep our rights and freedom. Do not dishonor them.

Democrats to Vote No Drilling After Election
Well now the election is over, the liberal congress has now decided to tell the truth about oil drilling. Before the election they decided to not oppose opening up new areas for drilling and now the truth comes out. They did that for votes only and never had any intention to really do so. Watch Pelosi as she has been hiding her real intent. Remember, she knows what is best for this country, just ask her.
Gas is low now and they assume no one will speak up and say anything about their lies. As Boone Pickens states, "Do it All" (Oil, Solar, Natural Gas, Wind, etc.) and do it now. When gas get to $4.00+ again look to the democrats to do nothing but blame someone else for their screw up. Have you ever noticed how nothing is ever the democrats fault. Remember who assisted by there inaction the mortgage mess with Fannie/Freddie. Remember the names as they are still there and still sticking it tho ALL Americans, Obama, Dodd, Frank, Clinton, Kerry and others that would take to much space to list. Chuck Hagle (R) tried to get a bill passed and Fannie/Freddie turned loose their Lobbyists to stop it and it worked.
Stop the democrats and and keep the drilling open. We either pay now for letting then shut down where the oil is or we pay later. Later means we pay much much more and suffer once again as the economy tanks due to high gas prices.
Wake up folks or reach deep for more money to pay for the Democrats lies about drilling. If Clinton had signed the drilling bill while in office, it would have helped by now.

Bailout The Unions? We the People say NO!!!!!!!!!!
Do you know the auto companies that are asking for a bailout are the same ones making a profit outside this country? Yes, only in America are they walking around with their hand out asking for our money to pay for union excess and poor management.
Let them file for bankruptcy and dump the union contracts that have bloated the cost of operating. Fire the managers and find someone who knows how to run a business. I heard on the radio that the Obama is going to sign a law (if passed) that would no longer protect people who vote to join a union or not. If the right to privacy during union voting disappears, what is next. Maybe we will have monitors beside us when vote for the next president, senator or congressman. Big brother is showing his head and this could be the start if not defeated.
Toyota, Honda, and other auto makers are not looking for a hand out, only the little three. They want us "We the People" to pay for their mistakes and union greed. We are going to be sold a bill of goods that we can't let this happen. Why the hell not? You and I didn't cause this, they did and it is now time to let them pay the piper.
If they get bailed out, who is next? DHL, Circuit City, or whoever comes along next.

ENOUGH, HAVEN'T WE ALL HAD ENOUGH OF THIS NONSENSE?
Our Soldiers Die to Protect our Freedoms & Others
Every American should read these Four Great Stories
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When in England at a fairly large conference, Colin Powell was askedby the Archbishop of Canterbury if our plans for Iraq were just anexample of empire building' by George Bush. He answered by saying, 'Over the years, the United States has sentmany of its fine young men and women into great peril to fight forfreedom beyond our borders. The only amount of land we have ever askedfor in return is enough to bury those that did not return. You could have heard a pin drop.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Then there was a conference in France where a number of internationalengineers were taking part, including French and American. During abreak one of the French engineers came back into the room saying 'Haveyou heard the latest dumb stunt Bush has done? He has sent an aircraftcarrier to Indonesia to help the tsunami victims. What does heintended to do, bomb them?' A Boeing engineer stood up and repliedquietly: 'Our carriers have three hospitals on board that can treatseveral hundred people; they are nuclear powered and can supplyemergency electrical power to shore facilities; they have threecafeterias with the capacity to feed 3,000 people three meals a day,they can produce several thousand gallons of fresh water from seawater each day, and they carry half a dozen helicopters for use intransporting victims and injured to and from their flight deck.. Wehave eleven such ships; how many does France have?' You could have heard a pin drop.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A US . Navy Admiral was attending a naval conference that includedAdmirals from the U.S., English, Canadian, Australian and FrenchNavies. At a cocktail reception, he found himself standing with alarge group of Officers that included personnel from most of thosecountries. Everyone was chatting away in English as they sipped theirdrinks but a French admiral suddenly complained that, 'whereasEuropeans learn many languages, Americans learn only English.' He thenasked, 'Why is it that we always have to speak English in theseconferences rather than speaking French?' Without hesitating, theAmerican Admiral replied 'Maybe it's because the Brits, Canadians,Aussies and Americans arranged it so you wouldn't have to speakGerman.' You could have heard a pin drop ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AND THIS STORY FITS RIGHT IN WITH THE ABOVE...
A group of Americans, retired teachers, recently went to France on atour. Robert Whiting, an elderly gentleman of 83, arrived in Paris byplane. At French Customs, he took a few minutes to locate hispassport in his carry on. "You have been to France before, monsieur?"the customs officer asked sarcastically. Mr. Whiting admitted that hehad been to France previously. "Then you should know enough to haveyour passport ready." The American said, "The last time I was here, Ididn't have to show it." "Impossible. Americans always have to showyour passports on arrival in France !" The American senior gave theFrenchman a long hard look. Then he quietly explained. "Well, when Icame ashore at Omaha Beach on D-Day in '44 to help liberate thiscountry, I couldn't find any damn Frenchmen to show it to." You could have heard a pin drop
Thanks, Marie!
When I read these I thought of Ryan and remembered that he could not vote in the last election because he's buried at the National Cemetary in Bushnell, FL and not available to participate in what he died to provide for other people...the Iraqi's. He was killed in action, as you might remember, trying to dig out terrorists that the Democrats said weren't even there in Iraq who were dedicated to disrupting their election.
That thought always gives me pause.
Best and a Happy Thanksgiving!

The Pennsylvania Democrat who has sued Sen. Barack Obama demanding he prove his American citizenship – and therefore qualification to run for president – has confirmed he has a recording of a telephone call from the senator's paternal grandmother confirming his birth in Kenya.
The issue of Obama's birthplace, which he states is Honolulu in 1961, has been raised enough times that his campaign website has posted an image purporting to be of his "Certification of Live Birth" from Hawaii.
But Philip J. Berg, a former deputy attorney general for Pennsylvania, told the Michael Savage talk radio program tonight that the document is forged and that he has a tape recording he will soon release.
"This has been a real sham he's pulled off for the last 20 months," Berg told Savage. "I'll release it [the tape] in a day or two, affidavits from her talking to a certain person. I heard the tape. She was speaking [to someone] here in the United States." He said the telephone call was from Obama's paternal grandmother affirming she "was in the delivery room in Kenya when he was born Aug. 4, 1961." Berg said he's pursuing the issue because of "the most important document in the United States," the U.S. Constitution.
"Nothing is more important than enforcing the Constitution," he said. "The Constitution's provisions are very small for qualifying for president. One, be over 35, and he is. Two, be in the country 14 years, and he has been. Three, be a natural-born citizen. He is not."
Obama campaign officials acknowledged the dispute by posting the image purporting to be a copy of his certification of live birth earlier this year. But they've declined to return WND requests for comment on the issues.
WND reported earlier this week Berg's claim that Obama has legally "admitted" the accusations included in his lawsuit, including that he was born in Mombosa, Kenya, by not responding to the allegations.
Berg filed suit in U.S. District Court in August alleging Obama is not a natural-born citizen and is thus ineligible to serve as president of the United States.
His lawsuit is demanding that the courts verify Obama's original birth certificate. Berg has cited Rule 36 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, which states that unless the accused party provides written answer or objection to charges within 30 days, the accused legally admits the matter.
Since Obama filed only motions to dismiss the case and did not actually answer the claims, according to Rule 36, Obama has legally admitted he is not a natural-born citizen., asserted Berg, who has taken his information public through his website.
Berg addressed the existence of a birth announcement in the Honolulu Advertiser newspaper, featured on the Atlasshrugs2000 website, that suggests Obama was born in the city Aug. 4, 1961.
But Berg explained to Savage he believes Obama's mother was near the end of her pregnancy and unable to travel by plane, so Obama was born in Kenya. The family then traveled to Hawaii and registered the birth and submitted the newspaper announcement.
Besides Berg's lawsuit, several other court challenges also have been filed, including one in Washington state where petitioners are seeking to have the Washington secretary of state "verify Obama's eligibility" to serve prior to the election.
The claim states, "The 'certificate' that Mr. Obama has posted on his official Website is a 'Certification of Live Birth,' and not a 'Birth Certificate' from Hawaii. There is no indication on even this certificate as to specifically where the birth took place." Berg also told Savage there is no information available on which hospital Obama's mother used in Hawaii.
The Washington state case also alleges, "Wayne Madsen, Journalist with Online Journal as a contributing writer and published an article on June 9, 2008, stating that a research team went to Mombassa, Kenya, and located a Certificate Registering the birth of Barack Obama, Jr. at a Kenya Maternity Hospital, to his father, a Kenyan citizen and his mother, a U.S. citizen. When Jerome Corsi, senior WND investigator reporter, recently traveled to Kenya to investigate several questions about the candidate, he was told the records were sealed and would not be made available.
Though it hasn't given Berg the evidence he seeks, the Obama campaign has publicly answered allegations that the candidate was born in Kenya and faked his Hawaii birth certificate.
"Smears claiming Barack Obama doesn't have a birth certificate aren't actually about that piece of paper," says the "Fight the Smears" section of Obama's website, "they're about manipulating people into thinking Barack is not an American citizen.
"The truth is, Barack Obama was born in the state of Hawaii in 1961, a native citizen of the United States of America," the campaign website states. It also includes images of the Hawaii certificate bearing the name Barack Hussein Obama II.
The Washington claim states, "If in fact Obama was born in Kenya, the laws on the books in the United States at the time of his birth stated if a child is born abroad and one parent was a U.S. Citizen, which would have been his mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, Obama's mother would have had to live ten (10) years in the United States, five (5) of which were after the age of fourteen (14). At the time of Obama's birth, his mother was only eighteen (18) and therefore did not meet the residency requirements under the law to give her son (Obama) U.S. Citizenship much less the status of 'natural born.'"
Berg said he believed it also was a complication that Obama's mother divorced his father, married and moved to Indonesia for several years and Obama attended school there at a time when, Berg said, only Indonesia citizens were allowed in schools. Records that are available from Indonesia revealed Obama was registered in school as Barry Soetoro, and his religion was listed as Islam.
When Obama later returned to Hawaii, within the United States, there should have been a government document affirming his citizenship, but that also cannot be found. If that was not processed properly, Berg said, Obama would be in a situation even worse than not being a natural-born citizen.
"If he didn't go through immigration, he now is illegal and has been an illegal alien. He couldn't even hold the position of senator for Illinois," Berg said.
Further, Berg said he suspected Obama's college records may indicate he received aid as a foreigner, and that's why those records have been withheld by the campaign.
"I really think it's because it probably indicates he's from Kenya, or Indonesia, or received foreign aid," Berg said.
"I feel very confident saying these things," Berg told Savage.

What is the Truth?
Do we now have a foreigner as a President? I don't know but if we do something must be done. Very Little of this was talked about before the election and now it is still being covered up.
We all need to remember the Democrats filed suit against McCain to toss him out as he was born in the Canal Zone. If it had been determined he wasn't entitled to run for president, then he should have been removed.
To date it still hasn't been determined if Obama is an American or a Kenyan. His maternal grandmother stated she was present when he was born in Kenyan. Interesting isn't it?
We need to find the truth as America is strong enough to deal with it.

Obama . . . Now Billed As The New Reagan
With some of the campaign signs from this week's general election still lingering on the front lawns of America, but journalists are already trying to bolster President-Elect Obama's empty achievement bag today by comparing him on equal terms with President Ronald Reagan.
It almost seems like sacrilege to speak these two names in the same sentence; but since the liberal media has no problem creating the news rather than factually reporting it, we shouldn't be surprised.

A Party of Fools
At the beginning of a lecture in my college Embryology Class many years ago, the professor said that it takes intelligence to feel pain. She quickly added that based upon this scientific fact, those students who had done poorly on a recent exam in the course would probably not experience any discomfort at all!
One of my daughters, a local school teacher in this city, told me tonight how difficult it was today to deal with the never-ending celebration of black students and teachers in her school who were praising God while gleefully congratulating each other that Senator Obama has become President Elect Obama. It is rather amazing to listen to people (black and white) today who voted for this candidate declaring that we have now overcome racial bias and elected a true leader who will "change the world" even though he may not be able to accomplish everything that needs to be done in the first four years of his tenure in the White House.
Back in my Embryology Class, the professor would have said, "Don't count your chickens before they hatch!" In particular I remember that we had a project in that class where we were each responsible for observing the development and birth of a baby chick under laboratory conditions while keeping detailed notes on a daily basis.
As the development progressed to the point where the chick attempted to peck its way out of the cracking shell, one classmate decided to help it by carefully chipping away tiny pieces of the outer shell in order to set the yellow peep free from the confines of its tiny prison.In time, the chick was born, but it didn't prosper and grow. It was never able to stand on its own two feet. Within just a few days, it died. My professor remained passively silent until death had intervened in the experiement. Then she told everyone, "The chick needed to struggle to get out of the shell in order to gain the strength to live." By interfering, even with the best of intentions, the student had denied the peep its only chance to survive.
Because I never forgot that important lesson from my college days, I have become a strong advocate for encouraging people to face the challenges of their own lives without expecting the government or anyone else to do for them what they must learn to do for themselves. God created all of us equally in the beginning by giving us 24 hours in each day and the ability to choose what we will do with that precious but restricted commodity of time!
I believe that Senator Obama became President-Elect Obama on Tuesday because he told a lot of people what they wanted to hear rather than the truth. It was Daniel Webster who once said, “The world is governed more by appearances than realities, so that it is fully as necessary to seem to know something as to know it.”
In that single quotation, we learn more about who Barrack Obama really is than with everything else that has been said about him or by him in this seemingly endless presidential campaign.
How else can it be explained that a man would be selected to lead this nation when so little is known about where he came from, why he is so lauded and praised when he has essentially no experience in either business or as a government public servant, where all of the hundreds of millions of dollars came from that financed his campaign, or how the trillion dollars in new government programs planned during his administration will be paid for in the next four years.
And can it really be that we have now seen an end to racial prejudice when more than 90% of all black voters in this election felt compelled to cast their ballot for this individual? That’s not the democracy that I know and love in this country. I personally don’t believe that oration skills and generalities are a substitute for leadership and statesmanship. He isn’t even in the White House yet, and I am already tired of the rhetoric. Obama has all the answers; the problem is that he doesn’t know most of the real questions!
Have you ever noticed that we must face many crossroads in our lives; but we rarely, if ever, have an opportunity to come to the same crossroad a second time? As a result of yesterday’s general election, America will never be the same again. It remains to be seen how our country and our citizens will fare during the next 4 years with the liberal Democrats in control of the White House, both chambers of the Congress, and with a free hand to appoint Supreme Court Justices and other judicial officials at will.
Yes, it is a celebration of fools who believe that we can dance in the streets and have everything given to us without paying the full price for it. I fear that the price that America must pay will be very precious in the coming years. Lest we forget, freedom isn’t free!

Now we Build
Moderate Democrats (Blue Dog) and Republicans (Moderate/Conservative) need to start building for the next election. Based on what the Messiah stated during the election, the liberal wing of the democrat party is going to try to jam down the throat of the American people spending that will destroy our country. Pelosi has already stated that no drilling will take place as she knows best what is good for our country. I wonder who made her god?
We need to follow the Obama road map to victory for America. Once his programs are enacted and the people realize he is another TAX & SPEND liberal (or worse), his party may be rejected by enough voters to make a difference. We will have to overcome the millions of Americans who don't pay taxes but will get a tax cut (welfare) check. Yes call it what it is, welfare. It will be very hard for the tax payers to get enough of the silent majority out but we must take our government back to the point our foundering fathers would recognize.
Maybe we can start something called "Americas Vote" that can start at the grass roots with the PTA, Young Republican, and Young Democratic groups where we can once again talk about the Constitution and American history.

Should we Riot?
Lets review history before we make that decision.
President John F. Kennedy is murdered - No Riots and the whites stay home
Martin L. King is murdered - Riots and our cities are burned by Black Americans
Bobby Kennedy murdered - No Riots and the whites stay home
Rodney King is assaulted by white police - Riots and LA burned by blacks
President Ronald Reagan is shot - Whites stay at home
We are told that if Obama is not elected, there will be riots again and the cities will burn.
Does anyone see a picture here. Draw your own conclusion but facts don't lie. Race has been and will continue to be a problem in this country. So long as we elect people who play the race card (Obama) during an election it will be a divided country. Mainstream media wouldn't call Obama's hand when he did and it certainly helped him. Only a few news groups did and it never made the mainstream news.

We all need to get a grip on this race issue as I for one am very tired of hearing it. White, black, pink, whatever, we are supposed to be Americans and believe is equality for all.
Missouri has a great statement that fits here.
It is called the "Show Me State" which means talk is cheap.
That is how it gots its name, Don't tell me, SHOW ME.
The New York Idoit Speaks Again
Schumer Compares Talk Radio to 'Pornography'
Tuesday, November 4, 2008 1:27 PMBy: Jim Meyers
Democratic Campaign Committee Chairman Charles Schumer defended the so-called Fairness Doctrine regarding talk radio, telling Fox News: “I think we should all be fair and balanced, don’t you?”
The Fairness Doctrine, repealed during the Ronald Reagan administration, would require radio stations to balance conservative talk hosts with liberal ones. In a Fox interview Tuesday morning, the senator from New York was asked if he supported telling radio stations what their content should be. “The very same people who don’t want the Fairness Doctrine want the FCC [Federal Communications Commission] to limit pornography on the air,” Schumer said.
“I am for that . . . But you can’t say government hands off in one area to a commercial enterprise but you are allowed to intervene in another. That’s not consistent.” In 2007, Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin, D-Ill., a close ally of Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, told The Hill newspaper: “It’s time to reinstitute the Fairness Doctrine. I have this old-fashioned attitude that when Americans hear both sides of the story, they’re in a better position to make a decision.”
Conservatives fear that forcing stations to give liberal hosts equal time on the air would cut into profits so significantly that radio executives would scale back on conservative radio programming to avoid escalating costs and interference from the FCC, according to The Hill.
They also note that conservative radio shows have been far more successful than liberal ones, making them easy targets for such legislation.
A recent Zogby poll disclosed that those who said they would vote for Barack Obama support reinstating the Fairness Doctrine by a margin of 53 percent to 37 percent, with 10 percent not sure.

That’s not consistent.” In 2007, Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin, D-Ill., a close ally of Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, told The Hill newspaper: “It’s time to reinstitute the Fairness Doctrine. I have this old-fashioned attitude that when Americans hear both sides of the story, they’re in a better position to make a decision.”
Conservatives fear that forcing stations to give liberal hosts equal time on the air would cut into profits so significantly that radio executives would scale back on conservative radio programming to avoid escalating costs and interference from the FCC, according to The Hill.
They also note that conservative radio shows have been far more successful than liberal ones, making them easy targets for such legislation.
A recent Zogby poll disclosed that those who said they would vote for Barack Obama support reinstating the Fairness Doctrine by a margin of 53 percent to 37 percent, with 10 percent not sure.
Politicalsass does not support the Fairness Doctrine as it will be used to silence the Conservative movement and is against the first amendment.
In the United States, the Bill of Rights is the term for the first ten amendments to the United States Constitution. These amendments explicitly limit the Federal government's powers, protecting the rights of the people by preventing Congress from abridging freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, freedom of religious worship, and the right to bear arms, preventing unreasonable search and seizure, cruel and unusual punishment, and self-incrimination, and guaranteeing due process of law and a speedy public trial with an impartial jury. In addition, the Bill of Rights states that "the enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people," and reserves all powers not specifically granted to the Federal government to the citizenry or States. These amendments came into effect on December 15, 1791, when ratified by three-fourths of the States.
Lets All Thank Congress for the Spending
As a lifelong conservative I have believed in smaller government and less government spending. Bush became president and had the opportunity to shrink government and reduce spending but didn't. He requested increase in spending and congress allowed as much as they could and now the so called leaders in congress blame Bush for all the spending.
What lies, THEY (congress) control what is spent not the president. Not one president has ever controlled what is spent, only congress (democrat controlled last two years) can spend our money and they spent this country into debt. They ALL (congress) sold out to special interest, and now cry about how the evil republicans put us in so much debt. Get a grip, Democrats sold us out as they have controlled what has been spent for the last two years. Yes Bush requested this and that but congress had the power to stop the spending. Sen. Clinton (D) supported an earmark for a "Woodstock" museum, Sen Stevens (R) supported an earmark for the famous bridge to nowhere. This is just a joke as none of us want our money spent for such nonsense. Our government is supposed to spend our money wisely but that is just a pipe dream.
Americans were to stupid to understand CONGRESS should have been voted out as they have allowed elected presidents to piss (excuse the language) away our money for years. American must wake the hell up and take control of our country again as it is almost to late if it isn't already.

Read the Constitution,
CONGRESS writes the laws and writes the bills that spends our money,
NOT ANY PRESIDENT.
Our next election is two years away and maybe the American people will wake up and vote the bums out. I don't care if they are Democrats or Republicans who waste our money and take our freedoms. Those who do, must go and go before it is too late.
AMERICA LOST
There once was a great country that offered freedom of religion, free speech, and the opportunity to earn as much as you could without the government taking all it could. That great country died on November 4Th, 2008 when the American people elected a closet Socialist who wants to "Spread the Wealth". I don't seem to remember the constitution saying anything about "Spread the Wealth". Our forefathers understood that if you worked hard in this country you would be rewarded with a good life. Throughout our countries history we had groups of people that had more then others and that may have been from hard work, inheritance, or pure luck.
Being raised in a low to middle income family I saw my father work 70+ hours a week to take care of his family. Yes, times were hard but he never looked for a handout or wanted to be given money from other citizens. Our society now has become a welfare country where the majority don't want to work hard and would rather have it given to them. I saw this in the early 70's while working in the Small Loan Business and it has gotten so much worse.
If things continue the way they are, 40% of the people will pay ALL the taxes and 60% will have a free ride. When our Democrat leaders talk about a tax cut for 95% of Americans they lie as it is nothing but welfare for the lazy. Almost 40% of all Americans pay no tax now which means a check going to those that pay nothing.
I am going to find all the tax shelters I can where the government can't touch the money I earn. My 401K will be closed (transferred) before Obama and the democrats try to get there hands on it. I strongly suggest ALL 401K holders do the same. If you don't think they will try, remember what they do to every program they control.
By the end of Obama's 1st term, America will have become a second rate country with leaders like Dodd, Frank, Pelosi, Hagle, Clinton, and the rest of the liberals who hate America and what it has stood for. Remember, most Democrats believe everything in the world that is wrong is America's fault.

America has lost its way and is no longer the land of the free,
it is the land of the government control.
HARD TIMES COMING
A Must Read, This morning, from a cave somewhere in Pakistan , Taliban Minister of Migration Mohammed Omar, warned the United States that if military actions against Iraq continue, Taliban authorities intend to cut off America 's supply of Convenience Store Managers and possibly Motel 6 Managers. And if this action does not yield sufficient results, Cab Drivers will be next, followed by DELL and AOL Customer Service Reps. Finally, if all else fails, they have threatened to send us no more candidates for President of the United States ! It's gonna get ugly!!!

It's Too Late for America
Many of our gullible Americans have been taken in by a Charlatan named Barack Hussein Obama as the former secretary of state Lawrence S. Eagleburger put it today. That's a good word for Obama that I hadn't thought of before. Considering the people he associates with I always thought of him as a Socialist/Communists based on his extremely liberal schooling/friends and associates.
Two of his high profile friends included: Frank the Communist and Williams Ayers the Terrorists. Frank helped guide Obama during his childhood and Ayers helped begin his political career. The most liberal senator and with friends like this what do you expect.
When Obama the Socialist begins messing up the country worse then it is, all you folks who voted for this man look in the mirror. YOU CAUSED THIS. I don't want to hear any crying when more of our rights are taken or BIG BROTHER sticks his hand in your pocket deeper. No where in the Constitution does it say for the government to take our hard earned money and pass it to others who for one reason or another are either to lazy to make as much.
Most of us start with nothing but a Government education and go from there. The ones that tough it out and stay in school normally succeed while the ones who try the easy way fail and then blame everyone else.
I will do my best not to owe any federal taxes so I do not have to "SPREAD THE WEALTH" to the people who want a hand out instead of a hand up.
