The Arab nations -one by one - had an Arabian Spring to gain honest
representation of their freedoms from a dictator.
Is it time for Americans to rise up and demand freedom from this
dictatorial dictator in the guise of a President in an American Fall?
The Elections are Nov 6, 2012. Your freedom depends on who you vote for.

Straight Talk about 'the obama'
Lets look at the base of the obama followers.
They are mostly poor, ignorant about how business works, and
ignorant how the government works. And if you add in all the people
who were not legally allowed to vote but did vote, then you have
a part of the obama base. Then there is the people who are idealistic.
These idealistic people would starve to death in a more uncivilized world.
Liberals have beliefs of "shoud ofs" that can never to paid for. But they do not
allow balancing the budget to get in the way of their idealism. That is why our
debt is growing beyond the United States' ability to pay the interest on our debt
let alone paying down the principle.
Whatever party comes in, we will have tough times ahead. One party will bankrupt
the United States making misery for all. This could possibly bring down the entire
world economy causing wars and worse. The other party will rein in spending and
cause misery to many people but not all. The good news about this party is that
the United Staes can recover from their budget path and the world's economy will
prosper.
The choice is not about idealism this time. It is about the debt, the US budget and
the ability of the private businesses to create jobs for all that want to work.
And that's the way I see it...

Soda bottlers' collusion
The soda bottlers say they are ALL reducing the size of their cans and bottles in
unison because they are saving their customers the calories.
Does anyone really believe this???
And isn't this price collusion??? I believe it is. And that is illegal.
They have reduced the amount of soda in a can and the soda makers are saving
the money by shorting the customer. The customer gets the shaft.
This is another form of inflation. We have to pay the same for less product.

Greece, New York's School Bus Monitor
As the Pendulum begins to return to center from the far left, we need to think about
re-capturing control from the children. We need to re-establish control over children.
When children act up, they need to be immediately corrected. If a child needs to be
spanked or held down to avoid further 'acting out' then we need to get back the
adult authority over children without fear of being sued by the child or the state.
Children do not have fully developed brains. That is a fact. Children have little
empathy and little understanding of their actions' consequences.That is why children need
to have their 'rights' limited back to where adults are in control. When a child acts up, an
adult needs to be able to immediately, right then and there, reprimand that child.
The child does not have rights when they act up. Even though they do not have the
ability to understand what they did wrong, children need to be controlled when they
step out of line.
We need to be parents of children - not their friends. This is or the best interest of
any child's growth. Children need to learn about limits and how their actions affect
other people.

The obama does it again
Don't we have an independent Congress anymore? What's with
this obama writing new laws from the executive office. The Office
of the President is supposed to be separate from Congress and the
Supreme Court. Watch out America. He is looking at disbanding
Congress and declaring obama-law. This will never happen. I
believe in our Constitution.
This immigration quasi-law that obama talked about today is nothing
more than political campaign speech. If he really wanted to do this,
he could easily done this when the Democrats controlled both Houses
of Congress. BUT HE DID NOT EVEN TALK ABOUT IT THEN!!!
And today's obama speech was also a "two-fer". He also moved
attorney general's illegal activities off the front page for a few days.
Eric Holder needs to resign or be impeached immediately.
In my opinion, eric holder is a reverse racist. He is anti-caucasion and
pro black. He has demonstrated this over and over. And speaking of
racists, in my opinion, the obama is a rabid racists. Just look at what
he does and what he talks about and what he injects his words into.
This President had zero management experience and zero experience
of any kind except being able to deliver an effective speech. He is a fraud.
He need to be voted out.

Obama and the duck test
Let's look at the facts. Like Sherlock Holmes says, when you eliminate all the clues except one clue,
then that one clue - no matter what - is the answer.
When there are only a handful of people who are in the obama inner circle that know the info that
has been leaked and there is only one person to possible (in his eyes anyways) gain from the leaks,
then it comes down to one of obama's inner circle people that leaked the sensitive info.
ONE of those persons should be tried for TREASON and go to jail.

OBAMA needs to go
Why is the Attorney-General Holder going to Wisconsin to "watch over" the election this Tuesday???
It looks more like a what a dictator would do when he was trying to throw the election.
With only 20 mishaps of potential election fraud in over millions of voters, the incident is so low that it begs the question again - why should Eric Holder go to Wisconsin for the Tuesday election???
This administration has corrupted our constitution so much that this administration thinks it is above the law. In fact in obama's own words, he said: "My congress" instead of the Congress of the United States. He is wrong! And he talks about HIS white House. Wrong again. It is the people's house. Obama is a free-rent occupant and nothing else.
And who really runs the White House. Not obama. It's more like Valery and Michelle. He only talks a good game with a script. But when the facts are in, and he has to talk without a script, you see the extremist and not-so-smart, unprepared-to-hold-any-office person. Je is a fake. He comes out of nowhere. His Harvard college application shows that he put his place of birth as Kenya not the United Sates of america.
Therefore, he should be disqualified as a President. You might even put obama on others on trial for TREASON.
I have never been more embarrassed by any President 0f the UNited States than I am of obama. And I was plenty embarrassed by Carter and Nixon. The sooner he leaves office the better for all ofAmerica and the world.

Voting Rights!
US Attorney Holder has declared war on all registered voters.
By allowing even one person to vote without a picture ID opens up the way for FRAUD. People then can vote for anyone who does not show up. That is called BALLOT STUFFING and occurs regularly in areas where there is a low voting count and where there is no picture ID required to vote.
OUR VOTE is a part of our independence and needs to be protected from those who would cheat all
registered voters of their choices.
Call your senator and local house representative and demand that voters show a picture ID before voting.
It makes a difference in all our freedoms.

There is no political gain to be had. Most of the tornadoes are in RED states and

OBAMA SUCKING UP FOR THE JEWISH VOTE
Their is no record from the obama administration that obama has any strong and positive
feelings towards Israel and the Jewish people. Today he said he would back Israel. But in the last
three years, he has condemned Israel for so many things and even suggested that Israel go back
to the 1967 borders without anything from the arabs.
Who is he lying to and why???
He wants to get the Jewish vote.
His standing in the Jewish community has dropped so now he is saying whatever he has to say just
to see if he can capture the Jewish vote.
Hopefully, the Jewish people are smarter then that and see thru his ignorant mouthing of a few
Hebrew words.
This President needs to be replaced in November by anyone - a Rep or even another Dem. He just
needs to be removed and a real politician needs to fill the shoes of the Presidency.
obama certainly has not filled the shoes of the Presidency.
obama is a fraud and he has reached his "peter Principle."

Social Security - suggestions to fix it
What started as a safety net has turned into an expected benefit.
But statistics show that with fewer people contributing to the Soc Sec fund and
more people living longer, then the Soc Sec fund will shrink until it can no longer
provide a safety net.
Here are a few suggestions:
1) Reduce the amount anyone can receive from soc sec depending on their total gross income.
If you make 250,000 a year from all sources, cut the percent payout by 10%
If you make 350,000 a year from all sources, cut the percent payout by 20%
If you make 500,000 a year from all sources, cut the percent payout by 33%
If you make 700,000 a year from all sources, cut the percent payout by 50%
If you make 900,000 a year from all sources, cut the percent payout by 75%
If you make 1.000,000 or more a year from all sources, cut the percent payout by 100%
That is called means testing and will not hurt anyone in those income categories.
2) Raise the social security AND the Medicare income limit by $100,000. That will only affect
large income people a small bit and will hardly affect any corporation.
3) If those two can't make soc sec fund solvent, then raise the age limit incrementally a month
a year for several years.
And that's the way I see it...

obama's call that did not happen
If obama can take time out of his busy schedule to chat
with ms fluke about her three times a day sexual activities and her
use of birth control, WHY HASN'T OBAMA SAID ANYTHING ABOUT
ALL THE DESTRUCTION AND LOSS OF LIFE FROM THE RECENT TORNADOES???
OH Yeah, They are all probably red states and we all know that obama
does nothing for red states even if it will cost the United States jobs or
gross revenue. Think how he will not help South Carolina with their
port that needs to be dredged to accommodate the deeper and larger
ships that bring goods to the USA.
And who benefits by not helping to increase the size of South Carolina's
ports??? (a red state) You have to know it's New York. And what color is
New York? It is a blue state. Point made. BUT New York's ports are smaller
and all union run. So less product can arrive and it will all cost more. But
obama does not care about the good of the entire USA. He is in campaign
mode. In fACT he has been in campaign mode since the day he started is term.
Making a statement that he will help the red states that have been hurt so
badly is not in the best interest of obama's re-election - so he says nothing.

Chicago corruption and Obama
In Chicago, recently labeled number one in corruption in all cities in the USA, we have a thing called PATRONAGE.
What this means is you get hired by a politically connected person. Your job is now dependent on that person
staying in power and you doing what that person says. Does this sound familiar?
This is a model based on the MAFIA (I know they do not exist Ha-Ha-Ha). And this is a model that unions use
to keep people in line whether they are union members or not. Think how the unions infiltrate any group to
stir chaos and trouble.
Now think about how Obama's administration has taken your money and mine to pay for union workers jobs
and pensions. The money for teachers given last year AFTER all the teacher budgets were firmly in place ended
up being used for things other than teacher's pay. Things like State budgets in general. But real estate taxes
pay the majority of the teacher's pay - not state funds.
So what we have are three main states with the most teachers: New York, Illinois, and California --- all solidly
Democratic states getting huge finds from the Obama money handouts. And by the way, they are all in the top
most corrupt states in the USA. Connection???
Patronage is the way political leaders control the elections. And Obama coming from the most corrupt state
of Illinois seems to be running the most corrupt government just like what he was taught as a 'community
organizer'.
Come on people. We still do not know anything about this man's history. You could put all his history in a
2-page pamphlet. We know nothing of his birth. We know nothing of his college education. We do not even know
why he applied to a college as a foreign student. We know nothing of his religious beliefs except he sat
listening to Reverend Wright (WHo hates America and spews hate and racism at his sermons) for 20 years. We know
nothing of his connection to Aires and that real estate broker (who is now in prison). We know nothing of how
he purchased the multi-million home in Chicago.
We do know that he sees racism in everything - remember the beer get-together in the rose garden. We do know
that he has little understanding how any economy works. We do know that he thinks more of himself then he is.
We do know that he was tutored by the city of Chicago (the most corrupt city in all of the USA). We do know
that he was NOT a professor at the University of Chicago - but a temp, stand-in lecturer - unpaid even. We do
know that his social security was issued to a person who died around when Obama was born. Obama does not
even have his own social security number. We do know that Obama thinks that if everyone was equally poor, and
owing their jobs to him, that he could control everything. We do know that Obama's wife is not proud to be an American. Hey, she said it herself before the political handlers made her correct her statement.
Obama is a plight on the United States Of America. We need to elect anyone but him in November.

Instead the unions will intimidate through force - brute force - to get what they want. And what do they want.
Let's look at what is behind the union wants.
The union wants you and me to pay for their pensions. The public pays for these pensions through real estate taxes and state taxes. Sure union members pay these same taxes but their share is so little compared to what they are getting that it is UNFAIR to the rest of the tax paying people who do not have these high-paying pensions.
And what is making up the most of many state's deficits? It's union pensions!!!
States need to limit union action with states. Unions have a place in the private sectors but not in the governmental sectors where you and I pay for these excessive concessions to pensions and health care for union members.
I compare these strong-arm union tactics to 'mob' actions similar to "protection rackets."
We need strong people to stand up to these brutes. They are bullies and bullies should not be tolerated.
And that's the way I see it...

Unions and pensions and State's deficits
Let's look at this through a financial lens. The unions which make up a smaller and smaller part of the total work force get unbelievable large pensions. They put in a minor amount and receive upwards of $36,000 to $50,000 to $75,000 to $100,000 to $150,000 per year; and many get more. Where does this money come from?
The money comes from Real Estate taxes and State Taxes for the most part. That means every home owner and anyone in a state with an income tax has part of their taxes going to pay for these pensions. Most of the people
who pay these real estate taxes and state taxes will never get a pension for a variety of reasons. But the unions
always demand more and get pensions for their members while the economy is barely limping along. Just plain greedy. That's my opinion. When 18% to 21% of working age people are unemployed the unions are not
satisfied to keep their jobs, they always ask for more. And that MORE comes right out of your wallets.
The way I see it in America today, it is the non-union people versus the unions - and definitely not low earners versus high earners. The class warfare is more about the union class taking from all the other non-union people. The unions are in fact a re-distribution of money channel. The unions are a very greedy group of people.
Think about this when your state raises your tax rate or when your real estate taxes go up while the price of
your home goes down. But the union members will be getting their share.
And that's the way I see it...

Political race 2012
The race to the President is reaching new lows. All I want to hear from the current President is what he has
done in plain talk. And how it will affect the USA and its citizens. And All I want to hear from the others is how they will be different from the current President.
All this double talk, lies and mis-direction is blurring reality and cheating the citizens of the USA.
We are at a cross-roads ---in my opinion--- similar to the 1930s in Germany. We have a choice between
traveling down a road to financial inflation and bankruptcy OR a very tough road to a strong USA. It is
that simple.
We can not spend money we do not have. Look at Greece. Look at Italy. Look at Spain. Remember what
happened to Mexico a few decades back. Remember what happened to Argentina a few decades back
We are seeing in Greece and Italy what could very easily happen in the USA. People not wanting to give up some of what they have to ensure that they will have something in the future. People greedy enough to demand pay
increases in the midst of a major recession. People demanding pensions while other have no pensions for
all sorts of reasons - many not their fault - like bankruptcies.
We need to cut our spending immediately - not in ten years. Why immediately? Because the interest is
approaching a level that cuts into the money available for social spending.
Do we want to spend out gross national product paying interest on the debt or to give everyone medical care?
The solutions are simple. It's the power grabs of congress and the President that are making it difficult. we
need to cut spending - plain and simple. And if we cannot figure out where to cut, then we need to cut
everywhere by 6% or 7%.
Like any company in financial trouble, we need to shed employees and assets. This will reduce expenses and
bring in revenue. We need to do things that we might not do in good financial times. Things like;
1) Open up Anwar for oil drilling. This is a wasteland delta close to another private drilling operation.
That will increase jobs and bring in tax revenue plus decrease our oil dependancy on countries that hate us.
2) Build the Pipeline from Canada to our southern refineries. This will increase jobs and bring in oil that will
otherwise flow to china. More jobs and more tax revenue.
3) We need to cut some of the agencies in our government or at least reduce the number of employees in
each agency. Private companies all over the USA are doing exactly that and they are turning profits.
4) We need to bring home some of our soldiers stationed in Germany and South Korea and re-deploy them
in the southwest States of America.
That will slow the drug traffic into the USA and help to secure our southern borders. And as a benefit, the
southern states will get needed income and from all these soldiers. More USA jobs and more tax revenue.
5) We need to deepen the harbor in South Carolina so it can handle the new and deeper container ships.
That will add tens of thousands of jobs plus keep costs low for imported goods.
All five of these choices will INCREASE JOBS AND TAX REVENUE. And this increased revenue can offset some of
the interest in our debt plus pay down our debt.
It is simple. It can be done quickly. The results will show up within a few months. Here's one reason why.
Just by announcing that we will drill in ANWAR, Alaska and that we will build the pipeline will bring down the price
of oil. It does not matter that the actual flow of oil will be a few years in the future. When the price of oil drops two things happen.
1) The price of gasoline will drop - putting thousands of disposable dollars into consumers' hands.
2) Those countries that hate us will have less revenue to finance terrorism against the USA.
All good things. So why aren't we doing this??????????? It's all about POWER. The power of congress,
The power of the President. The powerlessness of the USA citizens.
We need to accomplish these five tasks NOW.
Call your congressperson and demand that we accomplish these five things NOW!!!

Obama and liars
Do you like being lied to?
Do you like having someone reach into your pocket and spend your money on themselves?
Do you like people always blaming others for what they were supposed to do? Never taking responsibility???
Well the obama bus campaign tour is just that lie.
It is not about doing his job as President.
The tour is a campaign tour for re-election and tax money is paying for it.
Tax money that you and I are sending in to the treasury every paycheck.
Call your congressperson and complain that obama should be paying for this campaign tour from his re-election fund.
Tell the obama to be responsible for his actions FOR ONCE IN HIS LIFE! Stop voting "present" and take a stand.
The only reason there was any debt reduction (small as it is) was because Americans said
TAXED ENOUGH ALREADY - TEA for short. Just like the Boston tea party when AMericans tossed the
English Tea Overboard in rebellion to the taxes imposed by the King of England, the TEA group
said ENOUGH. And it is only because of the TEA group that we have stopped some ((NOT ALL)) of
the run-a-way spending by congress.
And lastly - Remember the BS budget submitted by the obama calling for 4 to 6 TRILLION MORE
DOLLARS IN SPENDING??? WELL that 'budget' did not get one vote. Not one vote from the Republicans. Not One vote from the Democrats. That shows you just how STUPID that obama budget proposal was.
And the obama claims that he is doing something. That is pure BS - a lie.
Remember when someone yelled "You Lie" in obama's state of the Union speech. Turns out that obama did lie.
You can not trust this obama with any more time as President. Anyone Democrat or Republican would be better.
ANYONE BUT OBAMA is on my 2012 campaign button.
And that's the way I see it...

obama's bus tour
Who is he kidding when he says it's a job's bus tour.
It is blatantly a champaign tour on the US taxpayer dollars - just insulting to taxpapers.
This President votes "Present" all the time BUT I DISAGREE!!!
He is not present.
He has not been a leader like any other Democratic or Republican President.
He is an absent President and needs to be voted out.
He has reached his PETER PRINCIPLE back when he was a community organizer.
Yes, he has a great campaign strategy and sometimes when he practices, his
speeches are given with a strong Baptist urgency. BUT, he does not have it
within himself to be a leader.
He has still not written a budget for over 830 days. That IS one of the President's most
important functions and HE HAS FAILED TO PREFORM.
All he does is create dis-harmony between races and find fault in the tiniest places with
Republicans about subjects that he refuses to tell anyone what he specifically and in detail believes.
This man needs to be replaced with a leader; Someone who will respect the Presidency and
make a budget and get out in front and lead.
And that's the way I see it...
