Liberalism has been in charge for so long that we can no longer survive in the manner we would expect. In the beginning we were all pretty much conservative to our toes and never bumped into ‘liberalism’ as we know it today. We relied on no one, we took care of our own and never thought otherwise. What was ours was ours to do with what we wished within the boundaries of Christian acceptability.
Liberalism has robbed us of our self-reliance, our independence our ‘can do’ attitudes, attacked our moral values to the point that ‘almost’ anything goes, and turned us into a Nanny State/Country where nothing is sacred with the exception of the most current liberal stance.
Conservatives foolishly think that what is theirs is theirs while the liberal looks at that growth and dreams up ways to ‘redistribute’.. Today the hard working conservative is frustrated by the obstacles put in his way by the ignorant, arrogance of liberalism.. If one considers themselves a liberal I might suggest (maybe with the ratchet of a twelve gauge) that they make it personal with themselves as the target, becoming the donor of their efforts rather than the recipient. A conservative does not mind sweating for his goals and considers it an abomination for someone else to usurp that which his sweat has paid for, sometimes quite dearly..
The GIVING of ‘stuff’ causes much more grief than one would imagine. The answer is SIMPLE.. Kids and public housing are living proof.. The more you give, the less they appreciate, and you’ve fostered an ENTITLEMENT mentality. Multiply that by all of those on the various social programs and you have some 47% percent of households being carried by the rest of us.. Enter tax refund items such as THE UNEARNED TAX CREDIT.. Those that pay little or nothing are ENTITLED to much more than they paid in, IF ANY. No need to remind one where that comes from, since our favorite government has no money other than what they TAKE from working folks..

The Obama interview ..
The truth of the Obama-O’Reilly interview…
We won’t go over the lies Obama was caught in but there were a couple of telling comments uttered by him.
One was the fact that he states that fully half the population favors this boondoggle of a health reform bill. This totally ignores the overwhelming rejection in the House and the 26 states that are going to court against this embarrassing chapter in the history of dereliction of duty by those entrusted with the trust of voters.
The really telling comment was his “what I’m NOT going to do is spend the next two years rehashing what took us two years to get passed..” What this actually means is he, even though he did not/has not read the health bill, is much too arrogant and ego-lead to do what needs to be done to actually give the people of this country a health bill that allows them the freedom to take care of themselves..
How much better for him and the country to have challenged the legislative body to come up with a bill that would be overwhelmingly endorsed by voters, challenge them to ACTUALLY READ the damn thing, forego the self-serving pontification of confusing legalese and allow nothing in the bill that had little relationship to health care.
When they ALL mention cutting entitlements they restrict it to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. Damn. These are the only programs we ALL pay into with the assumption that they will be there when we need them. The rest of the social programs apparently are exempt because why? Are they somebody’s pet project?
What about fraud in all social programs, how about waste in all government agencies, how about the inept wastefulness of grossly large amounts of TAX PAYER money given to countries that do not have the leadership to actually benefit.. Haiti comes to mind.. Just one of a gazillion such bungling governments they prop up with OUR money..
Why do we have a so-called ELECTED government if the their first act once in office VIOLATES The Constitution? When was the last time you really felt REPRESENTED? Do you really think that this poorly qualified, far left politician cares one whit about any but his own agenda?
Have you had enough of this guy yet?

800 Pound Gorilla...
I’ve decided that the term ‘responsibility’ must be in our dictionary by mistake…or maybe we should have another called ‘political responsibilities’.. AND a mandatory participation in a class for all elected officials so that it may become ‘certified’ that they are aware of the meaning of the term.. and most importantly, can be held accountable for failing to be so..
As of now, we appear to have very little responsibility in the political arena. The proof of that is staggering and all over the place.
Is it responsible to: vote on anything neither you nor your staff have read, vote on something that is obviously unconstitutional, vote on something unpopular in your district (after all, those are the folks you swore to represent ARE THEY NOT?), fail to remember that most government monies come from taxes on working Americans who EXPECT you to respect that simple fact? Is it responsible to fail to be fiscally accountable with your staffing and budget expenses, and….. the bleeping list never ends in the ways our politicians are irresponsible and disrespectful of the job they were elected to do.
They tell us the solution is at the ballet box.. Not so.. The ballet box has been corrupted by liberal judges. The solution is for the ballet to be restricted to those that are gainfully employed or retired from gainful employment, to have the vote to be a product of the fruits of ones labor, to have a mandatory drug test prior to receiving ANY KIND of supplement check…and probably a few other revoltingly good ideas.
Before one decides to behead me I have one more argument for the above… It’s real simple. The current state of affairs, due to the successes of the shrill vocals of minority groups and liberalism in our education, HAS QUIT WORKING. We now have a very unconstitutional government that has an 800 pound gorilla in every facet of our lives…and it’s eating all our food..

And we let this happen??
Read some about Sharia law and pay attention. We have judges in this country that are putting Sharia law about our Constitutional laws, basing it on the fact that is untouchable as religious beliefs.
This is as unacceptable as would a religious sect that practices cannibalism. The argument before the courts would be the same, both seriously butt heads with our Christian values. Why is this even be entertained? We are allowing these liberal judges to strip us of our gonads.
‘Politically correct’ has become the virus that will kill us all. We have created social programs to the point that a growing number of people in this country are becoming parasites of the system, living off the fruits of the rest of us. There are parables all through the Bible condemning those that make slaves of others by any means…and that would include our current social crutches that have made far too many of us cripples, unable and/or unwilling to do for ourselves.
Unemployment benefits have an unsavory side effect…They minimize ones desire to seek employment. No one seriously looks for employment when there is little need to do so.. All of which makes unemployment benefits counter-productive at best. Store personal pride in the closet and partake of the fruits of others.. Seems to be distinctly un-American…to me. The pox on you if you disagree…
Our ELECTED representatives of both parties have become little more than pimps for those that can afford lobbyists. Actually, our ELECTED representatives have become parasites with a gold plated future, their values having deserted them to make room for their self-serving agendas.
None of this is conjecture. It’s out there in plain sight but we dare not look…for we might have to hold ourselves accountable…for doing NOTHING. Hard to argue with a true liberal…as they have no ears..and their eyesight is appalling. The one thing that does work is their vocal cords, as they can spout their drivel over ANYBODY.
I’ve been told my gift is Discernment.. I’m beginning to think of it as a curse.

Discrimination..
We, as a nation, have always been taught that discrimination is a bad thing.. Yet our federal government may be the single biggest perp. At this time of year the tax code is front and center as a prime example of discrimination..
Different tax rates for different levels of personal income is blatant in its discrimination.. Same can be said for the social security payroll deduction when those that make $$$gazillions pay no more than those that make $109,000 (the current cap).
A perfect example of a FAIR tax (fair in that it treats us ALL the same) is the federal gas tax. Tiger Woods pays the same percentage of tax on his fuel as we do.. In my opinion that makes that tax (while tough to swallow) one that is fairly administrated.
While not in the forefront of discriminatory abuses the perks, retirement pay, health benefits etc. of our self-proclaimed royalty are almost vulgar in their discrimination towards the taxpayer, based on our required participation in programs from which they have exempted themselves.
A lack of term limits for none except The President fosters a situation where each additional term in office further removes our representatives from the reality of life as we the represented ones…know it to be. How can they be effective under that sort of isolation? They can not but…the gate’s been left open and they change the rules they operate under to fit their particular agenda.
The watchdog of a news media is naught but a shadow of its former self, a groupie whore to the whims of the liberal biased of this country.

"It's time for the rich to "pay up". Nearly 10 years of low taxes for the rich have not created jobs. They live in the lap of luxury while the rest of us can't even get a COLA on our Social Security checks. Go Democrats!”
???? I wish someone could explain this vein of thinking without any embellishment from liberal cousins to that way of looking at things.. My first question would be..’how many jobs have you seen a poor man create?’
My next question would be..’what’s mine is mine… By what legitimate line of reasoning makes anything that’s MINE become yours…unless I SELL IT TO YOU..?’
The high tax rate today is 35%.. To those that do not grasp that let me explain… 35% means that for every $100 dollars you make $35.00 of that goes to the government…right off the top. That’s before you pay for ANYTHING else.. Also, the top tax bracket is 350% more than the lowest tax bracket.. That’s 3 ½ times as much tax.. Can we hear it again about the tax break for the top wealthiest money makers?
The ‘loopholes’ that allow the rich to ‘cheat on their taxes’ are naught but business deductions allowed in the tax code.. Time to stop whining about those that have more than we do and thank them for the jobs we have…
As far as the ’jimcraigs’ comment concerning COLA on SS checks…maybe he should look to his favorite Democrats for the culprits, as they have been in control for the vast majority of the last thirty some-odd years..
Maybe we should have a mandatory national class on Personal Responsibility with a secondary class on 20/20 vision when looking in the mirror plus a required study on the process of creating jobs..

The ignorance of new taxes ..
All this political talk about raising taxes to pay our staggering deficits should scare us all. That type of thinking is a poorly constructed, knee-jerk reaction, highlighting a gross case of serious economic nearsightedness. Raising taxes stifles the economy, effectively rendering any chance of a meaningful recovery a second cousin to wishful thinking.
The cure is actually relatively simple and impossible. You hold Obama to the campaign promise of going over the budgets of all government agencies with a scalpel, you turn the focus of the IRS on government funded fraud, you quit printing money, you quit increasing budgets, you quit forming new government agencies, and you forget raising taxes in any form. You also impose a two-term term limits with no perks, forcing our legislators back into the reality of real America. With those things set in concrete your investors once again become willing to invest in all the things that produce jobs, which is where the economic focus should be.
When people have money to spend they spend it. If they don’t they don’t; a lesson lost on our government. Money taken from me and given to China does nothing for America. Money I spend goes back into the economy and is spent many times over. One is a total loss system; the other continues to work endlessly.
