Is America at war, or not?

Are we at war – or not?

For if we are at war, why is Khalid Sheikh Mohammed headed for trial in federal court in the Southern District of New York? Why is he entitled to a presumption of innocence and all of the constitutional protections of a U.S. citizen?

*** end quote ***

And does anyone believe that the AG made this decision without consulting the President? If that’s the case, then he should be fired for overstepping. If it’s not the case, then he should be fired for lying and deceiving the People.

New York Governor Says Trying Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, 4 Others In New York ‘A Decision I Would Not Have Made’
Paterson Rips White House For NYC 9/11 Trial – wcbstv.com

*** begin quote ***

Gov. David Paterson openly criticized the White House on Monday, saying he thought it was a terrible idea to move alleged 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other suspected terrorists to New York for trial. …

*** and ***

Paterson also said that the White House warned him six months ago this very situation would happen. He said while he disagrees with the decision, he will do everything in his power to make sure that the state’s Department of Homeland Security will keep New Yorkers as safe as possible.

SOOoooo the White House knew they wer…e going to do this SIX months ago; why know? To distract everyone.

RANT: The Obama don’t get the flu shot?

Sunday, November 1, 2009

“President Obama just declared the swine flu outbreak a national emergency. First the swine flu’s a big threat, then it’s not, then it is. Make up your mind. This thing’s like the Brett Favre of infectious diseases.”

— Jimmy Fallon

# – # – #

Note that not only do the Obama children NOT go to public skrool. They don’t get the flu shot either.

Do as I say; not as I do?

And, by the way, did anyone notice that the gooferment, which wants to run “health care”, didn’t get the vaccines done in time for the season. If you did that at one of the evil drug companies, what would be your title? Yeah, unemployed!

Obamas’ night out: First WH anniversary
Posted October 3, 2009 10:15 PM

*** begin quote ***

That a simple date at a relatively modestly priced Washington restaurant to celebrate a wedding anniversary – the first for the first couple in the White House – could generate as much venom as it has in these e-pages (see the comments below) on a Sunday suggests something deeply troubling about the American mood.

*** end quote ***

What’s the proper decorum for a President who that very day lost 8 AMericans in Afghanistan?

My understanding is that President Bush gave up golf so as not to appear uncaring. President Obama has been doing lots of things while “vacationing” and “politicking”, while troops were dying.

What is proper?

I still think that there should be politicians at each funeral. Maybe then the cost of their dilettante frivolity about “war” would be Rahm-ed home.

POLITICS: Obama is 0 (a zero)

Tuesday, October 6, 2009

http://www.politico.com/politico44/

*** begin quote ***

ONE STEP FORWARD… Consumer spending jumped by 1.3 percent in August – the most in almost eight years – thanks in part to the Cash for Clunkers program, AP reports.

… AND ONE STEP BACK: But, the wire service also reports, jobless claims rose to 551,000 – “evidence that jobs remain scarce.”

*** end quote ***

Obama was a ZERO.

Not O! That title still belongs to Oprah. At least, she’s a savvy business women. (I think she hurt herself and her ratings by getting to close to the ZERO and the Chicago Olympic bid.)

Obama could have:

(1) drastically realigned our troop deployments around the world. (I can hear the conversation now. “Sorry, <insert head of foreign country>, we have pulled the load for 60 or 100 years. We’re so done and out of here.”) Saving oodles of money.

(2) ended the psuedo drug war and pardoned all non-violent drug offenders. (I can hear the conversation now. “Sorry, <DEA, FDA, BATF, and FBI>, we shifting from Prohibition to Treatment.”) Saving oodles of money.

(3) stopped TARP, bailouts, and all sorts of raids on the Treasury. (I can hear the conversation now. “Sorry, <insert name of special interest group or Wall Street firm>, I’m from Chicago. I know how the game is played. And, I ain’t paying you off.”) Saving oodles of money.

(4) cut the capital gains tax to zero. Corporate income tax to zero. Cut the personal income tax to say 10%; just like the Bible. (I can see the corporate HQs relo-ing BACK to the USA as it’s a direct hit to the bottom line.)

(5) executively stopped the Patriot Act, closed the TSA, closed Homeland security, and closed the Department of Education.

The economy would have jumped back like a rocket ship.

And, he’d be on his way to a second term.

But unfortunately, the Sheeple elected 0 (zero) and not Ron Paul!

RANT: Ayers is closer to Obama then previously led to beleive

Thursday, October 1, 2009

http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=110789

*** begin quote ***

Because, if it is true – and I believe it is – it confirms Obama lied boldly and blatantly about something so significant during the campaign. It would also confirm Obama as a close associate and trusted friend to one of the most despicable America haters on planet Earth.

You just don’t hire anyone to collaborate with you on your autobiography. You only choose someone you trust, someone who thinks like you, someone who really knows you and your innermost convictions and shares them.

The evidence is mounting that Obama selected Bill Ayers.

*** end quote ***   

The American People, in their rush to justly punish the R’s, has elected a “Manchurian candidate”. As we learn more, as the “legend” he’s created unravels, as he pursues hid true agenda, we are finding that we have really screwed up.

Obama’s Nontax Tax
On a Sunday show, the President offers a revealing definition.

*** begin quote ***

“Mr. Obama: “My critics say everything is a tax increase. My critics say that I’m taking over every sector of the economy. You know that. Look, we can have a legitimate debate about whether or not we’re going to have an individual mandate or not, but . . .””

*** end quote ***

If I can’t avoid it, then it’s a tax. Call it a “mandate”. Call it a “penalty”. Call it the “tooth fairy”. The IRS will ensure you pay it. If that’s not a “tax”, I don’t know what is!

GM to form China venture, invest $293 million

*** begin quote ***

SHANGHAI (Reuters) – General Motors said on Sunday it has agreed to set up a light commercial vehicle production venture with major Chinese automaker FAW Group, with total investment of 2 billion yuan ($293 million).

The 50-50 joint venture, based in the northeast China city of Changchun in Jilin province, will make light-duty trucks and vans, GM said in a statement.

*** end quote ***

Bet they will have the UAW representing the workers? Not!

Hey, it’s only 293M$ of our tax money.

Glad the gooferment is branching out. From it’s Constitutionally mandated functions.

Now you see the meaning of Fascism. Oh, I mean gooferment – business cooperation.

How’s that “change” working out for you?

Another Obama mistake

Did anyone in the Washington ruling party, from the president on down, notice that the remains of Navy pilot Capt. Michael “Scott” Speicher were found, positively identified and buried with military honors in Jacksonville last week?

If not, why not?

*** end quote ***

Good question?

Seems like everyone has forgotten that we have boys and girls in harm’s way.

The speech at the VFW seemed to ignore that when he talked about only sending them when it was important!

POLITICAL: Open email to Bill O’Reilly

Saturday, August 8, 2009

Dear Mr. O’Reilly,

I think you are wrong about the “birth-er” controversy.

Strategically, coming off the fiscal and liberty performance of the Bush years, the R’s have nothing to brag about. They can’t claim to be the “party of small government and individual liberty”. They acted like the party of big gooferment that they are.

Tactically, the birth certificate belies the “open and transparent” claim of the Obama campaign. Why spend millions to conceal a trivial document. Why fight to hide everything from his early years. Obama is nothing to show as an example of fiscal restraint or champion of liberty. The D’s too are the party of big socialistic government. It just took a while for the Sheeple to tumble to con that had been pulled on them.

I don’t KNOW where Obama was born. I don’t know why all the effort to conceal a document. I don’t know much. But I DO KNOW that when a politician puts that much effort into hiding something (i.e., his entire past), then there is a smoking gun or a smelly skunk in there somewhere. And, I’d like to see it.

We, as a country, have a unique habit of ignoring the facts. Wilson did campaign a peace platform. FDR did engineer Pearl Harbor. Kennedy’s assassination is unexplained. Bush41’s no new taxes. Clinton “I did not have sex with that woman”. Bush43 creating the TSA. Obama’s porkulus and Government Motors. Economi

I, for one, would like to put some stakes in the ground. Let’s start with the birth certificate!

Just ask one question: Why the prodigious effort to hide it?
