Warning: The threat of suspended elections is real

With absolutely no proof of any kind of who he really is, Barack Obama made it to the Oval Office in 2008.  There was no media vetting of the largely absentee senator from Illinois, who even back then had the temerity to compare himself to Abraham Lincoln.  All anyone ever had to go on was an autobiographical book suspected of being ghost-written by an unrepentant domestic terrorist.  We all know how it goes with politicians and autobiographical books.
When Nancy Pelosi writes hers she will claim she trumps Mother Teresa, the Calcutta saint, not the one married to John Kerry.
If Harry Reid ever gets around to it, writing his, wine will turn to vinegar overnight.
You can claim to be anyone you want in a book, and that’s what Barry Soetoro did.
The point is that Barry Soetoro took the name Barack Hussein Obama, got himself elected and immediately began pushing the country so many look up to, right up to the precipice and nobody—nobody—has been able to stop him.
Now when we have a narcissistic Obama plunging in the polls, a democrat governor in North Carolina is pushing the envelope for suspending elections and covering up a notion she dropped a bombshell by claiming she was only using hyperbole to make a point for a Rotary Club.
If the election were held tomorrow,  Obama would go down in a landslide strikingly more humiliating than the shellacking he and his party got—and never got over—in the midterms.
But the 2012 election is more than a year away, and the man who made it all the way to the most powerful office on earth sans identity documents has all the booty, and the absolute power it brings, at his command.
This is Obama’s well-stocked position at a time when only suspended elections would guarantee his re-election.
North Carolina Gov. Bev Perdue was not joking when she spoke about suspending elections.  Nor did she pick the idea out of thin air.  Perdue was giving the suspend-congressional-elections idea its first oxygen for her hell-bent-for-leather boss.
It is crucial to not let this day go down without remembering what Perdue said.
Don’t let the state-controlled mainstream media lure you back to sleep by saying if there is no election, then why is Obama so diligently campaigning.
Obama is not campaigning.  He is preparing for Stage Two of the Total Transformation of America, using taxpayer money to prepare his Internet-identified “troops” for the coming Marxist Revolution.
He must not be allowed to get away with it.  Patriots should now be doing everything legal to stop him in his tracks.
Nothing is impossible when all the control is held by a tyrant.
Obama and his masters already pulled the biggest scam on any country in modern times by making it to the White House without legitimate I.D.
A dangerous new chapter is being written in American history that, if successful, is destined to impact the history of the West.  It’s called ‘Re-Election by Suspended Election Revolution’.
Patriots who want their grandchildren to grow up in a Marxist-free America should start the counter revolution called the ‘Revolution for an Obama-free America’ and they should start it “like yesterday”.

It shall be unlawful for an individual

July 3, 2011

Laws are for the little people, not President Obama

Jeannie DeAngelis

An ad to raise campaign funds has now made it official: Whatever rule applies to 300 million Americans does not and will never apply to the once-in-a-millennia exception to any rule that applies to all living entities: Barack Obama.
Based on his behavior, it's apparent the president views himself as a man so lofty in vision and skill that he's exempt from the decrees imposed on the little people.  Could it be that Obama perceives legalistic edicts as necessary tools to herd lowlifes?  If that were not the case, why would he be mentalizing which pair of golf shoes and what cologne to include in his ditty bag for a weekend at Camp David while chiding Congress for daring to take a break in the midst of a budget crisis?
As witnessed in all he does, Obama's attitude of exempting some while imposing on others doesn't only apply to healthcare reform waivers or Fourth of July weekend getaways.  When it comes to excusing himself, Barack Obama doesn't let little things like silly legalities affect his decisions to do whatever he damned well pleases. Following the example of America's "Let's Move" creator/healthy-eating first lady who "tucked" into fried fat cakes in Botswana, Obama is relaxed when it comes to personal restrictions. 
Recently, the lackadaisical Obama proved that exact point when he flouted a federal law as if it didn't exist. The following description of Title 18, subsection 607 U.S.C. is so straightforward even a layperson could understand.
It shall be unlawful for an individual who is an officer or employee of the Federal Government, including the President, Vice President, and Members of Congress, to solicit or receive a donation of money or other thing of value in connection with a Federal, State, or local election, while in any room or building occupied in the discharge of official duties.
In other words, the law says Barack Obama should not solicit reelection money or donations while in any room or building where official duties are carried out - such as hawking a wheel of raffle tickets on White House premises as if it were a church dance sweepstakes for a cheap door prize.
Lest we forget, the guy so anxious to now have dinner guests left Bibi Netanyahu sitting alone in the White House meeting room while he went and had a private dinner with Michelle.
According to election law experts, in flagrant disregard for federal law President Obama filmed a fundraising video offering dinner with himself and Vice President Biden as the grand prize for having a $5 raffle ticket plucked out of a giant spinning drum.
What's next, a car wash on the South Lawn? How about $100 for 10-minute spin on Marine One? And why stop there? A White House yard sale featuring Michelle's old clothes could raise enough gas money to fill up the "Hope and Change 2012" campaign bus for its entire tour.
Just as French fries are regularly enjoyed by a lady insistently force-feeding the nation rhetoric about organic kale, Obama released himself from the rules pertaining to the solicitation of money on federal property, which in his mind probably apply exclusively to the lesser 43 men who led prior to his using the Resolute Desk as a footstool.
As for the Dinner Date with Joe and Barry ad, "The White House contends that the video is legal." A White House spokesperson noted that the "Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) issued a memo in 1979 explaining that the president can solicit funds in the White House, so long as he does it in the residential portion of the of the mansion, not in a room used for official business."  The White House must have been pretty darn desperate if it went back to the time when a barrel of oil was $24 to dig up that memo.
Regardless of how the White House parses and spins, according to legal election law experts, "If the video was filmed in the Map Room, as it appears to be, then there is no question it violates the law."
Nevertheless, similar to the way the administration defended bypassing congressional authorization under the War Powers Act before taking action in Libya, the White House is now justifying campaign ads being filmed in the Map Room. To pacify critics, sleight-of-hand could be used to switch out the placard hanging on the door that says, "For Official Activities Only" for one that reads "Home Sweet Home."
Experts contend that by soliciting funds in the White House to finance a bid for reelection, the President is definitely bending if not outright breaking the federal law. Cleta Mitchell, member of the American Bar Association's election law committee, spoke more plainly when addressing the fact that Barack Obama filmed his $5 "Come On-A My House" ad in the White House -- she said his doing so is a blatant "criminal offense." 
What Ms. Mitchell doesn't seem to grasp is that whatever criterion causes Obama's actions to be defined as "criminal" is not a problem for the present occupant of the White House. The President is well aware that people may gripe, but he will never be called into account for the unlawful act of selling "Reelect Me" raffle tickets from the same room where an official visit was held with the Dalai Lama, who after being welcomed into what is now being considered the President's 'private residence,' was escorted out past a pile of garbage.
It could be that President Obama has convinced himself that but once in a nation's history comes a leader so superior to all others that placing legal boundaries upon such an individual constitutes an injustice that could result in global ramifications. Moreover, Obama could also feel that the urgent need to finish the vital work he started is so pressing that excusing himself from rules surrounding the solicitation of campaign funds on the premises of the White House is supported by that old adage: "By any means necessary."
In other words, the "ends" of raising money to keep Obama in office justify the "means" of raising the funds illegally. Thus, if it's necessary for Barack Obama, a man greater than the rules, to acquire reelection money by making an illegal "really big announcement" in order to "get everything done" over the next 5½ years, then so be it.

Precedent is a powerful thing.  As a student and adherent of Saul Alinsky, Obama understands that.  These are calculated, deliberate acts. And, each time our legislative and judicial branches stand mute in the face of lawlessness on the part of Obama's Executive, we are relinquishing the argument, and we are facilitating repetition of lawlessness.  We are represented by cowards in Congress, and judged by cowards in the Judiciary.  We The People must take the actions necessary to restore a government of laws.

the ACLU has terrified many school boards

The ACLU -- a change of heart ... or cowardice?

Dr. Michael Youssef - Guest Columnist - 9/28/2011 2:00:00 PM

The ANC (American News Commentary) reported in its September 21, 2011 issue that the ACLU is defending the right of Muslims to exercise prayer in public schools in San Diego… Really?

Is that a change of heart or the expression of a cowardly and terrified heart? It is most likely the latter. Let me explain.

Over the last 40 years or so, the ACLU has terrified many school boards, school administrators, and school children by threatening to drag them into court if they pray in public.

A few years ago, they terrified many coaches and sporting event coordinators by warning them that if they dare pray in public, the ACLU would bring about the full weight of their false interpretation of the Establishment Clause.

For many years, they have sent their emissaries across the land, “Gestapo-like,” checking out every small city council, lest they open their meeting with prayer.

But now they are coming out of their closets and are supporting Muslim students praying in public schools.

If you think that this defies every aspect of human logic, you would be right.

Fear is a powerful factor – fear devastates logical thinking, fear decimates consistency and their support for Islamic prayer in public schools in San Diego is a clear indication of that fear. They know all too well what will happen to them if they exercise their clever maneuvers on Muslims. They will not see the love and forgiveness they have received from Christians. Rather, they will see the end of the sword.

Surprise, surprise when Kevin Keenan, the spokesperson for the ACLU in San Diego, explained his enthusiastic support for Muslims praying in public schools, he said: “Performing these prayers is widely recognized as one of the five essential pillars of Islam.” Really?

Have they not heard, do they not know that Christians and Jews are also exhorted to pray?

Have they not heard, do they not know that for Christians, prayer is a life-line to their Savior, the God of the universe?

Have they not heard, do they not know that the prophet Daniel was thrown into the den of lions because he would not stop praying to the God of Heaven?

Have they not heard, do they not know that for Christians prayer is the foremost expression of their desire to commit themselves, their schools, their sporting events, and their public meetings to the Lord God Almighty?

Can one hope that appealing to the ACLU to be fair and just and not single out Christians, who are loving and forgiving, will make a difference? Meanwhile, they cower when it comes to Muslims, who may talk with the sword.

Can one appeal to them to see the light before it is too late for them as “infidels”—the first in line to face the sword under the Sharia?

Can one appeal to them to exercise even the most basic of human logic, let alone review history and truth?

One can hope.

hospitals to close emergency departments

Health insurers call on hospitals to close emergency departments

Wednesday 28 September 2011
Health insurance companies are calling for a sharp reduction in the number of hospital accident and emergency departments because of rising healthcare costs, according to media reports on Wednesday.
'Most hospitals have such a department. But is it right in these times that The Hague should have six accident and emergency departments and Amsterdam seven?, Pieter Hasekamp, head of the health insurers association, is quoted as saying in Trouw.
Hasekamp stressed the decision which A&E departments should close would be taken carefully, and that spread, availability and quality would be taken into account. 'It is a complex process, because A&E is the hospital's front door,' he said.
Cost
The association has set aside €100m to cover the cost of the closures.
A spokeswoman for the Dutch hospital association told Trouw the closures would have 'enormous consquences' for patients, and that the €100m on offer from the insurers was no more than 'a nice gesture'.
In addition, the closures would make it difficult to realise health ministry plans of keeping healthcare 'close to the people', she said.
Specialisation
In June, hospitals, insurers and the health ministry agreed to introduce more specialisation, so that not all hospitals offer all treatment. The closure of A&E departments is part of that agreement, Trouw says.
Meanwhile, health minister Edith Schippers told health insurers on Tuesday they should be more selective about which services they buy in and at what price.
The minister is currently working on a new policy document which aims to make the rising cost of healthcare the subject of widespread discussion - not only by politicians but 'in every sitting room', the Telegraaf said.

Our White House bully problem

Our White House bully problem

Michelle Malkin - Syndicated Columnist - 9/28/2011 12:55:00 PM

Spin, baby, spin. Throughout his frenetic jobs tour across the West this week, President Obama tried to seize the narrative. Republicans, he told champagne-sipping, tea party-trashing Hollywood moguls and tech titans, are intolerant bigots, know-nothings and thugs. They've made his hair "grayer" and left him "all dinged up."

But who's battering whom? Since Day One, Obama has been the Chicago bully in victim's clothing. The mask is wearing thin.

On Tuesday, Detroit News reporter Daniel Howes reported that White House officials leaned on Ford Motor Company to yank a popular TV and Internet ad critical of competitors who took federal bailout money. According to Howes, "Ford pulled the ad after individuals inside the White House" questioned the firm's CEO Alan Mulally (who had earlier supported the bailout despite his company's refusal to participate). Howes concluded: "You're not allowed, in Obama's America, to disparage the Auto bailout, or -- indirectly -- Obama. Especially during the election cycle."

Both Ford and the White House officially deny any political pressure received or applied. But White House press flack Dan Pfeiffer refused to answer when I asked him whether anyone at the White House had ever contacted anyone at Ford to complain about the bailout ad. Ford's social media director told me he personally "had no knowledge" of any contacts. While he disputed the gist of Howes' report, the Ford official would not call for a correction or retraction.

Chris McDaniel, the real-life Ford customer who starred in the offending ad, told BigGovernment.com editor Larry O'Connor that he was exasperated when he heard about the Ford fiasco: "Now we have the federal government butting their nose into this TV ad. Another example of them getting involved in things they have no business getting involved in. Where is the free speech of American citizens?"

He better watch out for the Obama campaign's official snitch brigade at AttackWatch.com. After a curious hiatus, the online speech monitors are up and running again. Coincidentally enough, the site (run by several George Soros-trained operatives) targeted conservative auto bailout critics just two weeks ago.

A left-wing Washington Post writer immediately scoffed at concerns about the administration's heavy hand because the Ford fiasco "is being denied by the parties on both sides." Must be nice to mainline White House talking points for a living. For the rest of us, reality intrudes.

This is the administration that threatened health insurers for candidly tying ObamaCare mandates to rising premiums.

This is the administration that pummeled companies such as Deere, Caterpillar, Verizon and AT&T for speaking out about the cost implications and financial burdens of ObamaCare -- and then cheered from the sidelines while Democratic Rep. Henry Waxman attempted to haul the firms up for a congressional witch-hunt inquisition.

This is the administration that has seized Gibson Guitars' instruments and has threatened whistleblowers who exposed bloody corruption and incompetence behind the Operation Fast and Furious gun-walking racket.

And lest they need a reminder, this is an administration that has clamped down on mainstream media reporters, too.

The Pleasanton (CA) Weekly was bullied by the White House press shop over a benign article that irked the administration because it made Michelle Obama look snooty.

The San Francisco Chronicle was punished by the White House because a print pool reporter used a cellphone to record video of protesters at an Obama Bay Area fundraiser.

A WFAA-TV Texas reporter was dressed down by the president for having the audacity to interrupt.

The Boston Herald was spanked by the White House for running a front-page op-ed by GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney.

The White House denied any pressure in all those cases, too.

Before his campaign finance-grubbing swing ended, Obama met the pop singer Lady Gaga. She lobbied him to combat bullying across America. It was a little like Red Riding Hood lobbying the Big Bad Wolf to promote vegetarianism.

Democrat allies in Congress are destroying America

Dear Fellow Conservative:

I happen to be a black man, but the only thing I have in common with Barack Obama is a good tan! If you share my belief that Obama's socialist policies and his Democrat allies in Congress are destroying America, please read every word below.
Obama and I have traveled distinctly different paths.

When Obama was consorting with Communist mentors like Frank Marshall Davis, I was earning my Eagle Scout rank.

When Obama was smoking various controlled substances, I was defending our country as an Air Force Officer and Air Force Academy graduate. 

When Obama was palling around with terrorist Bill Ayers and attending Jeremiah Wright's "G..D... America" church, I was raising a family.

The most dangerous special interest in Washington is BIG government and Barack Obama is its chief lobbyist.

I am running for Congress in North Carolina's newly redrawn 8th District because we cannot shrink big government and grow the economy unless we replace the Democrats in Washington with stalwart constitutional conservatives

As you may know, Republicans are expected to lose TEN congressional seats in California and Illinois alone as a result of the Democrats' extraordinary gerrymandering of those states' congressional district maps. In order to prevent Nancy Pelosi from becoming Speaker again, Republicans must pick up four Democrat seats in North Carolina. Because North Carolina Republicans controlled the redistricting pencil for the first time since the 19th century, four incumbent Democrat Congressmen now find themselves drawn into Republican districts.

To appreciate how conservative my district has become, consider this. In the old 8th District, Obama won with 52% of the vote. In the new 8th District, Obama lost with 42% of the vote. That ten point improvement (i.e., Obama losing by fifteen points instead of winning by five points) is especially good news for me because my opponent -- Democrat Larry Kissell has been a rubber stamp for Obama's socialist agenda.

For example, job-killing Kissell voted FOR higher taxes, the $825 billion stimulus, raising the debt ceiling by $1.9 trillion, taxpayer financed abortion on demand, and special rights for homosexuals. He co-sponsored Card-Check And he voted AGAINST Cut, Cap and Balance, the bill to repeal Obamacare, the bill to allow us to buy light bulbs of our choosing, school choice vouchers for inner-city children, and the bills to defund ACORN, Planned Parenthood, and National Public Radio.

A Latter-day Saint view of Book of Mormon musical

I have been reading Michael Otterson's column in the Washington Post
and loving it.  Michael is the head of Public Affairs for the Church.
The article below reflects his no nonsense approach in addressing
current Mormon issues, specifically in this article, the Broadway Hit,
The Book of Mormon Musical.

I thought you might enjoy the read.
Love you all.

A Latter-day Saint view of Book of Mormon musical

Reviews of “The Book of Mormon” musical have been all over the
entertainment media in the past few weeks. According to the reviews,
the play sketches the journey of two Mormon missionaries from their
sheltered life in Salt Lake City to Uganda, where their training and
life experience proves wholly inadequate to the realities of a
continent plagued by poverty, AIDS, genital mutilation and other
horrors. While extolling the musical for its originality, most
reviewers also make reference to the play’s over-the-top blasphemous
and offensive language.

Dealing with parody and satire is always a tricky thing for churches.
We can easily appear thin-skinned or defensive, and churches sometimes
are. A few members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
who have seen this musical and blogged about it seem to have gone out
of their way to show how they can take it. That’s their choice.
There’s always room for different perspectives, and we can all decide
what to do with our free time.

But I’m not buying what I’m reading in the reviews. Specifically, I’m
not willing to spend $200 for a ticket to be sold the idea that
religion moves along oblivious to real-world problems in a kind of
blissful naiveté.

Somewhere I read that the show’s creators spent seven years writing
and producing “The Book of Mormon” musical. As I reflected on all that
time spent parodying this particular target, I also wondered what was
really going on with Mormons in Africa during those same seven years.

So I checked.

•The World Health Organization estimates that 884 million people
worldwide don’t have access to clean water. This is a huge problem in
Africa, not only because of water-borne diseases but because kids who
spend hours each day walking to and from the nearest well to fill old
gasoline cans with water cannot attend school. According to church
records, in the past seven years, more than four million Africans in
17 countries have gained access to clean drinking water through Mormon
humanitarian efforts to sink or rehabilitate boreholes.
•More than 34,000 physically handicapped African kids now have
wheelchairs through the same Mormon-sponsored humanitarian program. To
see a legless child whose knuckles have become calloused through
walking on his hands lifted into a wheelchair may be the best way to
fully understand the liberation this brings.
•Millions of children, meanwhile, have now been vaccinated against
killer diseases like measles as the church has sponsored or assisted
with projects in 22 African countries.
•More than 126,000 Africans have had their sight restored or improved
through Mormon partnership with African eye care professionals in
providing training, equipment and supplies.
•Another 52,000 Africans have been trained to help newborns who
otherwise would never take a first breath. Training in neonatal
resuscitation has also been a big project for Mormons in Africa.
•Then, of course, there is the tragedy of AIDS. A couple of weeks ago
I attended a dinner where the Utah AIDS Foundation honored James O.
Mason, former United States Assistant Secretary of Health. When he was
working for the Center for Disease Control in 1984, a project to
research the epidemiology and treatment of AIDS was established at the
Hospital Mama Yempo in Kinshasha, Zaire. After visiting the hospital
and examining the children and adults with AIDS, Mason described the
death rate and the associated infections from AIDS as “horrific.”
Mason, a Mormon, knows quite a bit about AIDS and a great deal about
Africa.
•None of this includes responses to multiple disasters, like the
flooding in Niger, where the Church provided clothing, quits and
hygiene items to 20,000 people in six inundated regions of the
country.

Of course, parody isn’t reality, and it’s the very distortion that
makes it appealing and often funny. The danger is not when people
laugh but when they take it seriously – if they leave a theater
believing that Mormons really do live in some kind of a surreal world
of self-deception and illusion.

A couple of weeks ago a review about the musical appeared at the New
York Times from a Jewish writer who simply listed himself as Levi. “As
someone of Jewish faith,” he began, “I take personal offense at this
show….I cannot believe that New York, MY New York, where I was born
and raised, would ever do such a thing. Shame on you, New York Times,
shame on Broadway, and shame on all of us who stand idly by and do
nothing while the faith of others is mocked. Religious and cultural
Jews need not support such bigotry.”
Levi’s point was echoed by some reviewers, but by surprisingly few. So
why hasn’t there been a huge outcry from Mormons?
In my opinion, three reasons. The first is that in the great scheme of
things, what Broadway does with “The Book of Mormon” musical is
irrelevant to most of us. In the great sweep of history, parodies and
TV dramas are blips on the radar screen that come and go. Popular
culture will be whatever it will be.

The second reason is related. Jesus’s apostle Paul put it rather well
when he said that Christians seek out the positive and virtuous things
in life. His New Testament phraseology was adapted in the early years
of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in this formal
Article of Faith:
“We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and
in doing good to all men…If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of
good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.”
Finally, if we Mormons really do follow Jesus Christ in our lives and
look to him as an example, then it’s hard for us to ignore the
injunction to turn the other cheek. There were times, to be sure, when
Jesus roundly criticized others, but it was almost always for hardened
hypocrisy. He dismissed the criticism he received personally and told
his followers: “Do good to them who despitefully use you and persecute
you.”
It takes strength of character to do this, but it’s the Christian
mandate. Sure, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints pushes
back when the record needs correcting or when legal rights need
defending, but the world of popular entertainment is more likely to be
met with a collective shrug than by placard-waving Mormon protesters.
Meanwhile, what of those thousands of remarkable and selfless Mormon
missionaries who opted to pay their own expenses during the past seven
years to serve in Africa while their peers were focused on careers or
getting on with life? They have returned home, bringing with them a
connection with the African people that will last a lifetime. Many
will keep up their Swahili language or their Igbo dialect. They will
keep in their bedrooms the flags of the nations where they served.
They will look up every time they hear Africa mentioned on the evening
news. Their associations with the people whose lives they touched will
become lifetime friendships. And in a hundred ways they will become
unofficial ambassadors for the nations they served.

Gun Control By Government Must Be Stopped

Gun Control By Government Must Be Stopped
With the Obama administration, a political
bureaucracy has emerged that is unprecedented in
its arrogant disregard for the rule of law, the Constitution
and co-equal branches of government. Nowhere is that
usurpation of power more glaring than in the Justice
Department’s decree establishing a centralized registry of
firearm owners in total violation of law.
Using the big lie that American firearm retailers are fueling Mexican drug cartels, the administration has demanded that in four states (Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and California) personal information on law-abiding purchasers of two or more semiautomatic rifles (above .22 cal.) in a five-business-day period
will become part of a centralized database.
This is gun owner registration,
pure and simple. Keeping a central
registry of information on law-abiding Americans and the
firearms we own or acquire is specifically forbidden in federal law
and has been voted down in Congress.
It may be only four states and some firearm owners today,
but as with all “gun control” it will never end until all Americans
suffer under its yoke.
Gun owners must begin
marshaling our collective
power to unelect not only
Obama and his crowd, but to
unelect his anti-gun-owner
axis in Congress.
S T A N D I N G G U A R D
Government Edict
nra immediately organized and funded lawsuits in several federal courts to stop the order, and we are moving aggressively in the Congress to reverse this unlawful bureaucratic act.
Attorney General Eric Holder has pledged the full resources of the u.s. Justice Department to “vigorously fight” the nra’s legal challenge. He has at his command an army of anti-gun lawyers and unlimited taxpayer dollars to wage war against us.
This move by unelected bureaucrats is part of a plan that was hatched at the outset of the Obama administration with the full support of a host of media enablers. Those in the gun-ban crowd are ghouls, always in search of a “crisis” to feed on. And what they seek is the power to extinguish our rights and freedom.
With the extreme violence of the narco-anarchy in Mexico, they seized on that opportunity.
Try this from the Jan. 5, 2011, Los Angeles Times demanding the registration scheme: “Mexico has some of the strictest gun laws in the hemisphere. ... for Mexico, however, its weapons management strategy is sabotaged by an accident of location—its residence next door to the gun capital of the world.” That’s us. That’s our freedom.
For two years, the mainstream media has been hustling the government line that federally regulated firearm dealers are the virtual sole source of firearms acquired by the multibillion-dollar Mexican drug cartels. But the truth is those vast, ruthless criminal enterprises obey no laws. As u.s. Rep. Darrell Issa, r-Calif., who chairs the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee,
STANDING GUARD
IGITAL•Oct11 COMMENT USE YOUR POWER
said during congressional hearings, the cartels are “incredibly rich—with billions of dollars of drug money. ... to buy anything they want anywhere in the world in vast quantities.”
With black market surplus full-automatic aks and Vietnam-era m16s easily available, combined with master gun-running criminals on the level of the cartels, the notion that cartels are arming themselves from average gun stores is nuts.
To show that murder weapons in Mexico could originate in u.s. gun shops, superiors at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (batfe) made it happen through “Operation Fast and Furious.” Over the objection of gun dealers who reported suspected criminal activity, batfe refused to allow street agents to make arrests of actual criminals and gun smugglers. All of this was done so that those guns would “walk,” thus ending up in Mexico to be traced from the scenes of bloodletting back to dealers who did everything right.
In one of the best descriptions of “Fast and Furious,” Robert Farago wrote in The Washington Times that “ ... The agency’s motive for creating a program that violated Mexican sovereignty and put innocent lives at risk: inflating the number of American firearms recovered at Mexican crime scenes. The more blood-soaked American guns in Mexico the atf could identify for its congressional paymasters, the more compelling its case for increased federal funding and new agency-enforced gun-control regulations.
In short, ‘Operation Fast and Furious’ was an anti-gun-running
gun-running program.”
All of this was done to bring about Barack Obama’s promised “under the radar” gun control. The batfe/Justice response to getting caught in this bloody scandal is to double down. Breathtaking.
nra has demanded the ouster of Attorney General Eric Holder
for starters, but that’s not nearly enough.
With President Obama ignoring the law and the Constitution,
and with his total lack of cooperation with Congress in the oversight of “Operation Fast and Furious,” the only way we will truly change this continuing outrage is to change the regime this coming election year.
Gun owners must begin marshaling our collective power to unelect not only Obama and his crowd, but to unelect his anti-gun-owner axis in Congress.
With a new administration, we can end “gun control by government edict” and press for independent criminal investigations into “Fast and Furious” so that government officials responsible for that indefensible operation are brought before the courts to answer for what may well be criminal conduct.
For the families of those who have lost their lives because of this deadly and despicable scheme—on both sides of the border—we can demand no less.Straight From The SourceNew book from NRA is the authority on guns, ammo, shooting, ballistics, safety and fi rearms history. Order your copy today!

Greg Shapiro: Foreskins for Everyone!

Friday 16 September 2011
DutchNews.nl is reporting that the Dutch doctors federation KNMG is again speaking out against the practice of circumcising young boys. The organization says “10 - 15,000 boys are circumcised in the Netherlands every year, often on religious grounds and without anesthetics.”
“10-15,000 circumcisions per year!” It would seem that you can’t get a cup of coffee in this country without someone trying to cut off your foreskin.
I can tell you from experience that we considered circumcision for our son, and it was not easy to find anyone to do it. The main reason we considered it was for hygienic reasons: I have no idea how to take care of a foreskin. Having been born in America, I was circumcized along with every other male infant of my generation, and – personally – I’ve never regretted it.

We finally did find a Dutch doctor who performed the circumcision. He used a local anaesthetic, and the procedure was over in 5 minutes. Healing took about a week. In all, it felt about as barbaric as the heel prick or the DTKP inoculation, or any of the needles we jabbed into him, full of disease.
Already, 3 of the KNMG claims are untrue in my experience (circumcisions are common, they are performed for religious reasons, no anesthetic).
IF you want to slice it off of my insurance package (pun intended), then go ahead. But if the Netherlands is going to put a ban on male circumcision, then watch out. Next, I’m afraid males without foreskins will be made to re-attach their foreskins.
BUT the KNMG goes further! They also object to circumcision because it is often for religious reasons and ‘not normal.’ Now you’ve made it into an issue of religious freedom.
Folks, I’d take your argument a lot more seriously – IF your country hadn’t turned in all those Jews a couple generations ago. First, the Dutch crack down on Kosher butchers and now penis butchers. If you’re so darned interested in people’s penises and what they do with them, go to JeffStryker.com.
And as to ‘AjaxFan1983,’ who tweeted ‘Circumcision makes you no doctor. It is a SHAME.’ My response is this: You, sir, are no Joden supporter.
I think the Dutch can all agree that extremism is bad. No one is making circumcisions mandatory (that’s the Yanks). But they also shouldn’t be forbidden. Meanwhile, KNMG, your foreskins are all very nice.

What if a White President Had Said This?

We were told by numerous commentators and political theorists that when a black president was elected, America would finally move beyond “racial politics.” It hasn’t happened. Two recent incidents prove it. First, popular and talented actor Morgan Freeman had this exchange with CNN commentator Piers Morgan. As you read this, keep in mind that Herman Cain, a black man and a Republican candidate supported by the TEA Party, won the presidential straw poll in Florida:

PIERS MORGAN, HOST: Has Obama helped the process of eradicating racism, or has it in a strange way made it worse.

MORGAN FREEMAN: Made it worse. Made it worse. Look at, look, the Tea Partiers, who are controlling the Republican Party, stated, and what’s this guy’s name, Mitch O’Connell. Is that his, O’Connell?

MORGAN: Yeah, Mitch McConnell, yeah.

FREEMAN: Mitch McConnell. Their stated policy, publicly stated, is to do whatever it takes to see to it that Obama only serves one term. What’s, what does that, what underlines that? “Screw the country. We’re going to whatever we do to get this black man, we can, we’re going to do whatever we can to get this black man outta here.”

MORGAN: But is that necessarily a racist thing?

FREEMAN: It is a racist thing.

* * * * * *

MORGAN: Does it unnerve you that the Tea Party [is] gaining such traction?FREEMAN: Yes.

MORGAN: Why?

FREEMAN: Well, it just shows the weak, dark, underside of America. We’re supposed to be better than that. We really are. That’s, that’s why all those people were in tears when Obama was elected president. “Ah, look at what we are. Look at how, this is America.” You know? And then it just sort of started turning because these people surfaced like stirring up muddy water.

Second, soon after Freeman made these irrational and racist remarks, President Obama addressed an all-black audience and said the following as reported by the Associated Press:

In a fiery summons to an important voting bloc, President Barack Obama told blacks on Saturday to quit crying and complaining and “put on your marching shoes” to follow him into battle for jobs and opportunity.

Can you imagine if a white president or a white presidential candidate had made a similar appeal to a white audience? In fact, if the AP had reported the story and said one of these Republican candidates had told whites to quit crying and complaining and “put on your marching shoes,” the media would have gone crazy and the pundits would rev up the claim that the TEA Party is made up of a bunch of racists.
No, self-appointed black leaders and this president are the ones injecting race into politics. Conservatives are the ones trying to move beyond racial politics, but the racialists won’t let us. They need the racial vote to stay in power. They need the plantation system to maintain their power.

I often wondered why

    I often wondered why it is that Conservatives are called the "right" and Liberals are called  the "left". 

By chance I stumbled upon  this verse in the Bible: 
 
  "The heart of the wise  inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left."  Ecclesiastes 10:2 (NIV) 
 
  Thus sayeth the Lord.  Amen.
 
  Can't get any simpler than  that. 
 
  Spelling lesson -- The last  four letters in American.......I can.
 The last four letters in Republican.....I can.
 The last four letters in Democrats......rats. 
 
  End of lesson. Test to  follow in November, 2012.

I Have a Bridge to Sell You

If You Believe the President, I Have a Bridge to Sell You

On Thursday, President Obama paid a visit to Cincinnati, Ohio were he gave a speech on his jobs bill.  One of the items mentioned in his jobs bill is the replacement of the Brent Spence Bridge.  This bridge connects Cincinnati to northern Kentucky and carries all of the traffic for Interstates I-71 and I-75.
The President said that his choosing to speak there had nothing to do with politics and everything to do with promoting his jobs bill.  He went on to say:
“Now, the bridge behind us just happens to connect the state that’s home to the Speaker of the House with the home state of the Republican leader in the Senate…Just a coincidence.  Purely accidental that that happened…The reason I came here is because Mr. Boehner and Mr. McConnell are the two most powerful Republicans in government.  They can either kill this jobs bill, or they can help us pass it… Mr. Boehner, Mr. McConnell, help us rebuild this bridge.  Help us rebuild America. Help us put this country back to work. Pass this jobs bill right away.”If you truly believe that the President’s choice to speak at the base of that bridge had nothing to do with politics, I’ll sell you that bridge and several others along with it.  Interestingly, I did a little research and learned that the Brent Spence Bridge is already scheduled for replacement in the future and the President’s jobs bill may help send some funds to help pay for it, but it won’t do anything to make it happen any faster than is already planned.
The one thing he said that may hold some truth is that Boehner and McConnell may be the key factors as to whether or not Obama’s jobs bill gets passed.  For the sake of the nation, I truly hope and pray that these two leaders have enough intelligence to see that the jobs bill is nothing more than a guise to raise taxes.  It will not create more jobs and in fact, may actually cut jobs.
House Speaker Boehner and Senate Minority Leader McConnell need to stand firm and reject the President’s jobs bill and not compromise in any way shape or manner like they did on the debt crisis issue in August.

Help Stop EPA's Job-Destroying New Rules

The House of Representatives is set to vote this week on the "TRAIN Act", a bill that will slow down EPA's regulatory train wreck and determine whether EPA should go ahead with an onslaught of job-destroying regulations.

New EPA regulations that specifically target coal-fueled power plants, like the "MACT Rule" and the "Transport Rule", will significantly raise energy prices, impact the reliability of America's electricity supply and destroy hundreds of thousands of high-paying American jobs.

Despite dire warnings from America's mining, manufacturing and energy producers that this onslaught of regulations will significantly weaken economic growth, the EPA continues to push these burdensome regulations through without examining the consequences they will have on America's economic and global competiveness.

It's time for Congress to step in and compel the EPA to assess the cumulative impacts of EPA's job-destroying rules.

With over 26 million Americans now unemployed or underemployed, we have to make sure we are not adding unnecessary regulatory burdens at a time of much needed economic growth.

Send a letter to your representatives and urge them to support the "TRAIN Act" and make mining's voice heard!

'Deliciously ironic' offense

'Deliciously ironic' offense

Russ Jones - OneNewsNow - 9/20/2011 4:15:00 AM

A Muslim group is calling out a California councilman for comments made on his Facebook page concerning Muslims and 9/11, but at least one Christian group has come to his defense.

The Greater Los Angeles Area chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has requested that Orange city Councilman Jon Dumitru apologize for posting remarks on Facebook concerning the anniversary of 9/11. According to Dr. Gary Cass of DefendChristians.org, CAIR is upset that the councilman linked the teachings of Islam and the Koran to the terrorist attacks.

"This is just another attempt on the part of CAIR to try to silence any opposition to Islam -- even if it's honest, even if it's legitimate, and even if it's fully protected constitutional speech," Dr. Cass contends. "And we're here to say [that] some Americans are not going to be silenced, no matter what CAIR says, or no matter what CAIR does."

Dumitru, who is also a firefighter, wrote: "It was ten years ago today that most Americans learned first-hand of the teachings of Islam and the Koran being filled with messages of peace ... as they killed thousands of our fellow Americans! Today, I remember those lost, left behind, and those across the world searching for these pure evil terrorists and dispatching them from this world! We will never forget! We will never forgive!"

In the DefendChristians.org spokesman's opinion, "What's so deliciously ironic about this is CAIR was connected to the Muslim Brotherhood; and the Muslim Brotherhood, along with CAIR, [was] helping to raise money through the Holy Land Foundation that was being sent to Hamas, a terrorist organization."

Even so, CAIR has responded to the firefighter's words by writing: "Your hateful statement, in which you falsely insinuate that the teachings of Islam and the Koran would allow the terrorist attacks of 9/11, is deeply troubling to all Muslims."

THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS!!!!!

Congressional Reform Act

1. No Tenure / No Pension.
     A Congressman collects a salary while in office and

     receives no pay when they are out of office. 


  2. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social

      Security.

     All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to  

     the Social Security system immediately.  All  future

     funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress

     participates with the American people.  It may not be

     used for any other purpose.


3. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as 

     all Americans do.


4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. 

    Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.


  
5. Congress loses their current health care system and

    participates in the same health care system as the  

    American people.


6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on

     the American people.


7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen are void

     effective 1/1/12.

    The American people did not make this contract with

    Congressmen. Congressmen made all these contracts for 

    themselves. Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career..

    The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, so

    ours should serve their term(s), then go home and back 

    to work.

Economic storm threatens the Netherlands

Economic storm threatens the Netherlands, says finance minister

Tuesday 20 September 2011
The Netherlands will have to dig its heels in to withstand the coming economic storm, finance minister Jan Kees de Jager told MPs on Tuesday, as he formally handed over the government's 2012 spending plans to parliament.
'We are being threatened by something, but we don't know what is heading for us, or when, the minister said.
'It is clear that 2012 is going to be a difficult year for a lot of people,' De Jager said. 'We have to make difficult choices and they will hurt.'

€70m too much
The Netherlands is a financially solid country, but still runs a deficit and the debt is increasing. This year alone the country will spend €70m too much every day.
The cabinet is trying to carve out a leading role in restoring financial stability to the EU, he said. This is why the government is keen to tighten up eurozone budget rules and prevent the spread of the Greek crisis. In the long term 'we have to ensure our weaker brother does not bring down other countries in its wake,' De Jager said.
MPs and ministers will hold two days of debate on the 2012 plans on Wednesday and Thursday. The actual documents were published last week but ministers have refrained from commenting on them since then.
