In the beginning of 2009 most of the main stream media couldn’t get enough of President Obama. They covered him 24/7, showering him with praise and commenting on how well he spoke to the people and to the press. Very little effort was given at dissecting what he said; instead the media focused on how Obama’s word made you feel (i.e. Chris Matthews: “I Felt This Thrill Going Up My Leg” As Obama Spoke). The honey-moon period has somewhat worn off now and the media is starting to see that Obama is one who avoids giving a clear direct answer; he is a typical Washington politician. He is our ‘Equivocator in Chief’.
Have you ever wondered how far Enviro-Libs would take their political or social agendas? With the news of the recent climate research unit hacking at the University of East Anglia, also commonly known as “Climate-Gate”, and with the constant flow of information showing us that global warming is a fraud or hoax based on cooked figures and data; it’s astonishing that the main stream media outlets have not reported the true findings to expose the hoax for what it is. Green advocates are supposed to be for a clean environment, so why do they peddle this garbage agenda onto everyone?
No we’re not talking about the Sci-Fi fantasy motion picture; we’re talking about President Obama’s recent executive order granting Interpol full diplomatic immunity from American law.
The Obama administration still has not publically commented on the order. However Interpol’s Secretary General, Ron Noble has issued an after-the fact-response to the order even though Interpol has not publically stated that American laws were interfering with their policing activities.
President Obama’s recent executive order involving INTERPOL and his visit to the ‘Copenhagen’ climate summit have sparked increasing interest into the ideas of internalnational law and how it can apply to the United States; more specifically how the Obama administration envisions how it can apply to the United States. Some critiques on the left would have us believe that international law is irrelevant and that only a sovereign states law really matters. If this was true and internal law is in reality useless, then it would make no sense as to why so many countries devote so much time, money and effort into negotiating new legal regimes and augmenting existing ones. It would make our arguments about the legality of such rules, especially here in the United States, irrelevant. And there would be no need for organizations like the United Nations to exist. The topic that many statists and supporters of international law dodge is how these laws affect a nation’s sovereignty, in particular America.
There are many speculations regarding President Obama’s secretive Executive Order 12425 that was made in the middle of the night on December 17, which grants full immunity to INTERPOL (the International Police Organization) on American soil. The order basically grants the foreign law enforcement agency some very broad powers to operate nearly unrestricted within the United States; exceeding even some of the most troubling aspects of the Patriot Act.
The first year of President Obama’s term is nearly over, and if you’re a Conservative there is a lot to be unpleased with. In fact if you’re a Liberal, there is a lot to be unpleased with as well. Looking back to the many campaign promises that bought the Liberal, Moderate and Independent vote, how has Obama faired overall? There are so many issues to discuss its mind boggling; the surge in Afghanistan, the war in Iraq, Iran, Guantánamo, the economy, healthcare reform, etc. Probably the most obvious topic to talk about first is the disillusionment that the President and this administration has had with its own accomplishments.
It would seem that Wall Street just can’t do right in Obama’s eyes no matter what it does. Obama stated in an interview with CBS’s Steve Kroft for ‘60 Minutes’ that the motivation behind repaying Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) was to be able to pay themselves bonuses. In reality the banks see the increasing regulation and restrictions coming down the pipeline and are trying to prepare themselves for the nation’s financial-regulatory apparatus overhaul in one way or another. A lot of people are joining the “hate Wall Street” bang wagon, but it’s really important to note that not all banks are bad and not all banks were involved in the sub-prime lending activities that caused much of the financial failures. There are many loopholes in the upcoming 239-page amendment to the U.S. House of Representatives’ financial regulatory overhaul on banks that will allow some banks to get away unscathed and other parts of that legislation will hurt or penalize the good banks with the bad ones indiscriminately. As it is now, this administration has already overstepped its constitutional powers by overtaking GM and other private businesses; where does this private sector takeover stop?
“I’m from the government and I’m here to help you.” This phrase is more applicable now than ever. For months now Americans have been telling and often shouting what they want and don’t want to their elected representatives with little results. House and Senate Democrats have continued to tell the American public that they know what is best for Americans, regardless how many of us picket their local offices or Tea Party Washington. Bottom line is they don’t want to listen. This healthscare bill is not about helping Americans. It’s about power. If the Democrat’s can get the American public hooked on Healthcare and other social dependency programs, then they feel that they will be able to remain in power indefinably because if people are dependent on the government for life they will vote for the Democratic party. This Democratic controlled 111th Congress and the Obama administration have shown us time and time again with their words and actions over the last year that they see American sovereignty as something that is vested not in the people but in the national state, and that all individuals and associations exist only to enhance the power, economic status and the well-being of the state. This is statism through and through, and it’s time that the rest of America wakes up from its brainwashed utopia.
It’s hard to understand why and how this administration can think that it has turned around our nation’s economy when the national unemployment rate continues its path towards double digits. Some state unemployment numbers are nearly double the national average (i.e. Michigan again recorded the highest unemployment rate among the states, 15.3 percent in September).
Okay, I admit I just used that title to pull you into reading this. Apparently it worked if you’ve read this far. If you have a computer and an internet connection, then you’ve probably read or heard about the many looming court cases and questions regarding Obama’s eligibility for President of the United States.
I guess this is the best that the White House can come up with; pretend that those who expose you for what you really are do not exist…I see this as a seriously lame attempt to discredit Fox News – the only non-state controlled main stream media outlet and to divert the attention away from issues like jobs and health care. Once again, this is a typical statist tactic of pressure and deflection. Lenin did this in the former Soviet Union; silence all the press, except the ones that support your agenda.
There has been so much going on in the news lately that I almost can’t seem to pick what to write about; Iran’s nuclear crisis, Healthcare Reform, the near 10% unemployment rate, the failing economy, a second stimulus, etc. Even though the state controlled media is varyingly reporting on the Congressional Democrat and Obama policy failures, there has been one thing that has been constant since Obama began his run for Presidency; and that’s the steady attack on Republicans; and more specifically Conservatives and their values. Mainstream media outlets (minus Fox News) did not and continue not to cover this topic the way it should be, in fact most of the media outlets have caused the name calling and mud slinging activities.
Today being a Conservative is tough. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not looking for pity…I chose to become a Conservative Republican. The choice is not easy in todays society, and I look at America’s younger generation and wonder if those that have made the choice to be Liberal have done so because it is easy and they are willing to let the Government take over their lives, or because they have been brainwashed by Liberal indoctrination throughout their schooling. Maybe it’s a little bit of both. Being a Conservative is sort of like being the character Neo in the movie “the Matrix”. You are severally outnumbered by your opposition and you are constantly attacked because of what you represent. It’s no easy road to walk.
Being a Conservative means that you’d better be educated on the issues and you’d better be ready to defend your position, because YOU WILL BE challenged by Liberals on your values, ideologies and opinions. For example; recently I was called “militant” because I expressed my conservative opinion in regards to a political situation. This has become the new attack strategy of the lefties, “tag and bag”. Label a Conservative a “militant” or a “racist” because they are speaking out against big government or the President and you are inevitably redirecting the issue to something that is extremely exhausting trying to defend against in the hopes that the Conservative just gives up in frustration.
The Liberal left has for the most part convinced the world that being a Conservative or a Right-Winger is a bad thing and that we should all be hated. We’ve been linked with President George W. Bush and the war on Terror, regardless of the facts. Both political sides know that Bush was not a real conservative, but that doesn’t stop the left with associating the rest of us with him in a weak attempt to make a point that we are all mindless stupid cowboys. We’re all evil racist capitalist “Tea Baggers” that are hated for our beliefs and it’s our fault for the failing economy and the September 11th attacks.
Knowing that I could have taken the blue pill (the Liberal pill) and lived a relatively simple life, watching with my eyes wide open as my civil liberties are taken away – while pretending that the government will take care of me, that Obama was going to pay my mortgage, put food on my families table, fill up my gas tank, create world peace, and save the planet. Instead, I made the choice to take the red pill (the Conservative pill) and live a life of arguing with people that are driven to push their ideologically opposing agendas down my throat. Why would anyone do such a thing when you can take the blue pill and live an ignorant life of bliss, false happiness and Liberal utopia? I chose to be a Conservative because I, like the founding fathers of this great nation, did not want to sit on my ass and watch my God given rights be trampled on by the growing government. I didn’t want to watch my money be taken away through over taxation only to fund big government programs, or to watch extremely Marxist, Socialist and other Liberal activist groups influence my children’s schools in an effort to change the values and morals of America through the eyes of her youth. I refuse to let my country slip away from its roots, its values and its history. This is something that our founders would have fought and died for, and so would I. So if that’s what Liberals mean when they say Conservatives like me are militant, than I guess I am militant; because I will fight to the death to keep my country and my countryman free from a tyrannous totalitarian government.
Once again President Carter, commonly known as one of the worst American President’s in our nations history, has inserted himself in today’s politics when he is not needed. If I were a Congressional Democrat I’d tell Carter to enjoy his retirement and stop bringing negative attention to the party. Carter is obviously trying his best to divert the real issues at hand, such as the looming Healthcare Bill and the ACORN scandals. Recently at Emory University Carter was asked if racism is something that President Obama is dealing with when trying to pass bills in Congress.
“When a radical fringe element of demonstrators and others begin to attack the president of the United States as an animal or as a reincarnation of Adolf Hitler or when they wave signs in the air that said we should have buried Obama with Kennedy, those kinds of things are beyond the bounds,”
Honestly I have no idea what Carter is referring to when he says “attack the president of the United States as an animal…” but I do understand why people would compare Obama and Hitler to each other. You’d have to be blind or have sipped too much of the Obama kool-aid not to notice the similarities between the two.
Carter didn’t even answer the question that was asked…the question referred to racism within Congress, not racism within the American public. Demonstrators aren’t members of Congress. As Americans we all have the right to freedom of speech, even if Mr. Carter, the Democratic or Republican Party, me or you don’t agree with it. The other issue that I have with his statement is that Carter (and the left controlled media) is obviously slanting the facts to spin the issue into something that it is not by neglecting to state that no one actually said that we should burry President Obama with Senator Kennedy. What was actually said on those protester signs was burry “Obamacare with Kennedy”. It was a metaphor, meaning to let the current Healthcare plan go. The devil is always in the details…details that these little Democratic devils keep leaving out on purpose.
“I think people who are guilty of that kind of personal attack against Obama have been influenced to a major degree by a belief that he should not be president because he happens to be African American.
“It’s a racist attitude, and my hope is and my expectation is that in the future both Democratic leaders and Republican leaders will take the initiative in condemning that kind of unprecedented attack on the president of the United States,” Carter said.
This is all too typical of the left, to attack and tag anyone that opposes their agenda. I have yet to see anyone logically, and categorically layout how ANY decision made by the Republicans or the Conservative Right was motivated by racism. Once again, this is very typical of the left. Quickly make as many false claims as you can and attack the supposed “oppressors” without providing any factual evidence.
So using Carters ideology…if a bill that was inspired by the President doesn’t get passed by the Democrat dominated Congress, does that mean that their decisions were motivated by racial undertones? How hypocritical of them.
