Tyranny And Turmoil

Tea’d Off

“You may fool all the people some of the time, you can even fool some of the people all of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all the time.” — Abraham Lincoln

In the face of plummeting popularity ratings, the acting president clearly should heed the wisdom of his professed hero, Abraham Lincoln. Stalin and Lenin, his formative heroes, did not possess such wisdom and so championed an historically failed form of government. ‘Bama must also learn three other facts of life if he expects to complete even one term in office, much less win a second.

1. His power is limited. He has already exceeded those limitations and the people have taken note. His authority derives from The Constitution, not from his cronies in Congress or his radical political affiliates. Where does a public servant get the audacity to dismiss the C.E.O. of a private sector company like G.M.? Our government works for the people, not vise versa!

2. The American people are uniquely resilient and will stand for seeing their rights trampled only so long. We will not simply roll over for a petty, would be dictator as others have done in darker corners of the world.

3. Actions have consequences. Elected officials serve at OUR pleasure and that includes the acting chief executive. ‘Bama is becoming ripe for impeachment and has, evidently, only begun to violate his oath to “Preserve, protect and defend”. That’s The Constitution folks, not just a list of suggestions.

For more than 230 years the thread of freedom that binds America has been handed down from generation to generation. It will not be broken! The following videos say it all most eloquently, please listen:

Remember to make yourself a sign and head for a Tax Day Tea Party near you on April 15th. The freedom you save may be your own!

Somebody Tell Mother Nature

Glass StomachLast night, all those who like to mix their religion with politics in an attempt to discover science got to feel good about themselves for a few minutes. The intent was a show of global unity in the desire to tinker with the Earth’s natural heating and cooling cycles. The result was, in fact, a demonstration of weakness and global gullibility. Almost as brilliantly as the lights blazed in my house, headlines blazed across the Internet:

“Lights go out across planet for Earth Hour”
“World switches off to save planet in Earth Hour”
“Cities switch off for Earth Hour”

Unfortunately for a great many people living in the world of reality, nobody told Ma Nature about the event and she produced headlines like:

“Kansas City Airport Closed Due to Snow Storm”
“Severe weather strikes Plains, Gulf Coast”
“Cold weather eases flood threat in Fargo”

After experiencing one of the coldest winters on the planet in decades, including snow in places like Louisiana, Mississippi and California, I’m convinced most planet-saving ‘Greenies’ must be sporting glass stomachs or they’d keep bumping into things. They not only continue their flight of fancy in the face of truths their own senses can’t deny but are completely missing the more dangerous implications of government using climate change as a mechanism for tyrannical control of our personal lives. That’s why the hoax was perpetuated in the first place!

I think the best shtick of the evening was CNN promoting their around the world coverage of “Earth Hour” events. Wait a minute — doesn’t it take an enormous amount of energy to generate such coverage? Well, I suppose it’s no worse than ‘Guru Gore’ flying around on a private jet to rant about our over use of fossil fuels. Instead of worrying about man made global warming , we need to start thinking about man made global fortunes and the losses of liberty resulting from our blindness!

You know, mushrooms like it in the dark, too — and are usually fed a diet of the same stuff our little planet savers have been swallowing.

Global Power Hour

EarthlightsI hope the people shoveling snow in Denver or battling floods and freezing temps in Fargo aren’t as confused as I am. Do they even understand they can’t be having these difficulties? With the earth heating up at a furious pace, what they are experiencing is impossible. Geez, ask Al Gore!

Those mental giants who went sledding off to measure the North Pole’s dwindling ice cap, and had to be saved by fume-belching fossil-fueled airplanes, couldn’t possibly have experienced the arctic cold and blinding snow they thought was threatening their lives. They must have been hallucinating from the heat! Okay, so which one of you kids can spell man-made global warming? Let’s see: H-O-A-X. There’s another way to spell it too: T-Y-R-A-N-N-Y.

You see, any confusion arising here has to do with attempting to address the whimsy of political religion by using the concrete logic of science. It’s the old square peg in a round hole story. Now for the capper: Since there’s not much around these days to feel good about, let’s create something that will give us all a few warm fuzzies. How about a global “Earth Hour“? You know, like making a “wave” at the ballpark!

Yes “Greenies” Saturday night, as 8:30PM hits their time zone, everyone in the world is supposed to turn off all energy consuming devices for one hour — assuming they live in a country that can afford energy consuming devices, like computers, cell phones and lightbulbs. ‘Bama’s brother George in Kenya, for example, may have to visit the neighbors; I don’t think Thomas Edison has visited his block yet.

Am I participating? Oh, you bet! At 8:30 Saturday night, I plan turn on every light, appliance and energy-gulping device in the house, just to see how fast I can make that little black dial spin on the electric meter. I may even start both cars and let them run for an hour or so. Whatever you do is strictly up to you, at least until our morph into The People’s Republik of Amerika is complete. Then, we’ll be taxed into submission and forced to comply like the mindless little ‘Bamabots who actually buy this kind of crap.

At least until then, I have reserved one defiant digit in the center of my left hand for at least partial erection toward these great green gobs of global gullibility — and you know what? Regardless of how any of us respond to this latest “planet-saving” ploy, we’re all still going to have enough juice to burn toast and brew coffee in the morning.

Tea Party Near you!

Ears Meet Chin

Last night, appearing on “The Tonight Show,” ‘Bama told host Jay Leno he’d been practicing at the White House’s bowling alley but wasn’t happy with his score of 129. Then he rolled a real gutter ball by quipping: “It was like the Special Olympics or something.” Can’t this guy get anything right without his teleprompter talking to him?

On his way back to Washington on Air Force One, the acting president called the Kennedys [Tim Shriver, chairman of the Special Olympics] to say he was sorry — and received a gracious pass. Hey, didn’t Don Imus get fired for making a stupid, demeaning remark about a select group of people? So-o-o-o-o ???

Atten-shun!

Commander In Chief’s Military DisdainBeyond busting budgets, Obama clearly demonstrates a complete lack of respect for America, her offices and her traditions. He is purposefully steering a course that is heading our nation full throttle onto the rocks.

His foreign policy is simple: Insult your friends and embrace your enemies. If you think our global image has suffered in the past, wait until this joker is finished. The only question is, will we still be able to laugh? Domestically he seems to be keeping close to his agenda of Marxist takeover from within, according to the precise methods described in Saul Alinsky’s “Rules For Radicals“. Want to know what’s coming? Read the book!

‘Bama’s attitude toward our military is as perverse as his attitude toward our allies: he hates them. The latest slap in the face is the Messiah’s desire to turn personnel injured in battle over to the private insurance market instead of providing traditional government-funded care. He is more concerned with his agenda of breaking the back of private health care than he is with seeing to the welfare of dedicated men and women he sends into battle.

I watched a news video the other day showing this impostor disembarking from Marine One and was so shocked that I played it back [TIVO] twice to make sure I actually saw what I thought I saw. A young Marine stood at respectful attention and held a proper salute, as the Commander In Chief followed what looked like a group of street urchins from the helicopter.

For the first family to be so inappropriately dressed in front of the nation would have been disgraceful enough — but the acting president scowled at the honor being paid him, never glanced at the Marine and returned a half-hearted salute that was as disdainful as his mood. He could learn a lesson or two from that brave young man, as well as from so many other military who serve us all with such great pride, not great contempt.

By Any Other Name

Have We Forgotten?The late comedian George Carlin had a routine during which he listed several politically correct terms for a handicapped person, ranging from physically challenged to otherwise enabled. Brandishing his usual profound wit he concluded, “You can change the name of the problem to anything you want but the guy is still crippled!”

At GITMO, we have a murdering band of thugs captured on the field of battle during The Global War On Terror, that our make-believe government in Washington has now decided to rename detainees. Well, change the name to anything you want but they are still unlawful enemy combatants, most of whom have brutally killed American sons and daughters — all of whom would do it again in a heartbeat. By the way, as you probably know, we’re not supposed to say War On Terror anymore either!

A few months ago these same sand vermin weren’t entitled to so much as protection under the Geneva Conventions. In every war fought during the past 5,000 years, except for the odd prisoner exchange, captured enemy combatants were either killed or held until the end of hostilities. It seems, however, that the chip Obama carries on his shoulder for America is partially fed by a soft spot in his head for Muslims. In addition to closing their Caribbean country club, he wants to bring these barbarians to the U.S. and give them all the rights to trial of a citizen. Besides being despicable and dangerous, awarding such rights to the enemy is unprecedented in the annals of history, military or otherwise!

Beyond Orwellian doublespeak, this is a policy that demonstrates weakness to our enemies, disrespect to our troops and destroys the morale of our brave forces in harm’s way. I’d love to hear what Mr. Carlin would have done with this one!

Liberty’s Last Gleaming

Stimulus StickupWhen I was a kid, the Cold War was at its peak.   Russians were oppressors of freedom and Communists were hiding under every bed.  Reagan finally drove the evil empire out of business, and with that as my political backdrop, I could no more imagine a leader of The Soviet Union cautioning America about the evils of Socialism than I could imagine Christmas without Santa Claus.  Well, it turns out that I am Santa Claus and Vladimir Putin is warning us not to walk down Russia’s road to ruin — a road down which we seem determined to sprint!

Two muted flourishes to the fanfare of change are echoing just out of most people’s earshot, placing in peril both our wealth and well being. Stealthfully disguised as ‘aid’ is the budget-busting left turn our government is taking at nosebleed speeds.  Then, lurking in the shadows, is civil unrest that is likely to follow accompanying losses of the liberty we have always exercised as naturally as drawing air into our lungs.

We are suddenly living in a time when political and economic differences are no longer so much a matter of Republican versus Democrat as they are of people versus government. We are suddenly living in a time when the Constitution is being ignored, prosperity is being punished and the private sector, along with the economy, is being systematically destroyed.

Dow Jones Obama FreefallSince Obama became the leading candidate the stock market has plunged 6,000 points with a near freefall of more than 1,500 points occurring since his inauguration, alone.  He doesn’t care.  ‘Bama has committed trillions of dollars of generational ‘econocide’, announced plans to raise taxes and signed carefully cloaked legislation heavily compromising our freedom, all during his first four brief weeks in office.  The gloom and doom drumbeat, diversionary tactics [like replacing George Bush with Rush Limbaugh as whipping boy] and treating the DJIA as if it were merely a tracking poll is part of the greater plan – the social and economic re-engineering of American society!

Don’t just take Rhom Emmanuel’s word as to the benefits of crisis, read ‘Bama’s Bible; no, not the Koran but Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals”.  I’ve spoken of it before and, now more than ever, it will scare hell out of you when viewed in the light of what is happening right under our very noses. Unfortunately Alinsky only addresses tearing down, which explains why ‘Bama’s inspiring rhetoric is stuck in reverse; he doesn’t have a blueprint for what was supposed to happen next, in case he won.  His mental tele-prompter is blank!

Of greatest concern to me is the brewing backlash that could easily surface somewhere between revolution and civil war.  Americans have known only freedom.  The growing stench of unbridled government power reeks only of tyranny.  If you don’t believe 1776 can happen again, check out the special training police forces are receiving  and ‘Bama’s desire for his own Gestapo.  Someone believes it!

For my part, just give me an old time tax revolt; on April 15th, nobody sends the Feds anything — nothing! Then in 2010, we run the scallywags out of town on a rail and send only people who actually represent us back to Washington. As for the incredibly incompetent Mr. Obama he has already committed several abuses of power and is ripe for impeachment, as soon as the proletariat casts off its blanket of messianic slumber.

Those last couple of thoughts?  They ain’t gonna’ happen — but if enough Americans can regain enough consciousness in time, we may still stand a chance of preserving a semblance of the freedom that was gifted to us for future generations.
