If Obama was leading this nation as he should be, he would have gotten before the cameras and talked to the people about it. He would have explained to us the nature of the problem we are facing, and what he was prepared to do about it. Any other president would have taken some sort of action and done something immediately.

But no, all we get from Obama on this is how he is going to keep his boot on the neck of BP to fix this problem, and how they will make them pay for the entire cleanup of this mess.

I am tired of Obama’s constantly threatening style. He wants, and will, keep his boot on the next of all of us to get what it is he wants. He is all about his agenda, and that is all that he is interested in.

As I looked at the reasons why Obama might be letting this problem go on, I did start thinking that maybe he would have been doing it to somehow use against Republican Senator Bobby Jingle, since he is considering a presidential bid, that he would claim he did not step up and do something about it, so Obama could say he would not make a good president (not that Obama has shown any kind of leadership here, except to make threats and put the American people down).

I could also think that maybe he let this problem go for the economic impact it will have in this area of the country: yet even more good, hard-working people will have their livelihoods affected by this spill. It is no different than Obama keeping the water turned off in California’s Central Valley. Now, farmers there have had to tear down whole orchards, and it will take years for them to be re-grown.

The only reason we have the economic crisis that we do is NOT because it was unavoidable, or the greed of Wall St. We have it only because of Barack Hussein Obama, because he has done only those things to help destroy this nation.

As with many other things connected with Obama the timing of this spill had to be suspect, at the least. Quite personally, whether intentionally made to happen, or purely accidental, it seems to be Obama used this “crisis” like he did all the others--to do things that could not be done otherwise.

This is the man we have in the White House--one who does not fix problems, but takes advantage of them…

05/25/2010 - Barack Obama held a closed door meeting with Republicans today. Two questions:

1) Why was the meeting closed door?

2) Why did Republicans not demand that Obama’s meeting with them be open door, with the press present?

You would think that after all the closed door meetings Obama had with Democrats while trying to get his health care bill through, and all the bribes and arm-twisting that was done, Republicans would know better than to hold a closed-door meeting with Obama now. In fact, it would have been a perfect opportunity for them to demand that he begin being more transparent--with them, and the American people.

So now we have more closed door meetings. I heard that reporters stationed outside the doors heard two rounds of applause for Mr. Obama. One a report I just heard, one of them could have been for Obama deciding to send down new forces to help guard the border.

Okay, that is nice, but what about finishing the fence? What is to stop these, and forces that are already there, from just turning their head? We know Obama is full of a lot of talk…and little action. We might see these forces stop a few people, but my bet is they will not stop *everyone* from pouring of the border.

If Obama was really intent on doing something about this problem, he would be in front of a camera, telling the American people as a whole what he intends to do; that he realizes the problem Arizona is having is a major problem requiring a concerted effort to stop the flow of the illegals into this country.

No, this is just to show that he is doing something. It is half-hearted, and being done just as Obama has done many other times before--just to *appease* the anger that is out there.

And the Republicans are letting him get away with it in allowing him to meet with him in a closed door meeting.

Pardon my French--and if you are French, well, I am sorry about the label, but it as the saying goes--but this is all a lot of bull-crap! And Obama is getting upset about things because he is getting some pressure put on him to do something, about the illegals, and the oil spill.

His response to the oil spill today: “Plug the damn hole!”

If Obama was leading this nation--as he should be--instead of just trying to ruin America--as he is doing--he would have far more intelligent things to say than that!

It is not about knowing how to stop the leak. He would be taking the lead in doing the things needed to contain the spill and clean up the mess.

I said this before, and I say it again. We got a BOY SCOUT in the White House. He is just a “community organizer” with some very *selfish* designs for this country--selfish, because he has done nothing but push his agenda. He does not know how to handle problems at all, and as a “community organizer”, he should at least be able to do that.

All Barack Obama Hussein knows, or cares about, is his damn agenda for this country.

I am sorry for how I have ended this post, but I am sorely angry about what I see Obama doing to this nation. It makes me want to cry.  Does it you?

Despite whatever else may have been pre-occupying people’s minds Sunday night (May 23^rd), I am quite sure much of America was glued to their television sets to watch the final episode of “Lost”.

I started off an avid fan of the show, but my work kept me from following it as closely as I had initially. I did, however, watch enough of it to know something of what was happening, and the two-hour pre-show Sunday helped me to see how different parts fit together better.

The ending left room for different interpretations, but what the story seemed to say was that everyone on the island had actually died, and that idea was made further by showing the empty beach during the show’s closing credits.

Ironically, at a time when religion itself is becoming increasingly more “lost” in its own right in this country, the show’s ending, taking place in a church, with its doors opening to a bright light, seemed to put a more spiritual angle to the ending than a mere secular one, and that seemed surprising considering how God and right and wrong are ideas that are being further pushed off to the side in our society.

I have criticized Obama pretty hard in this blog. I have done so because I…fundamentally…believe he is very wrong in his approach to changing America, and that he is simply taking this nation in the wrong direction.

As I have said in other posts here, we need conservatives to help resolve and restore things financially in Washington. If they succeed in tossing out as many Democrats, and old rhino Republicans, as well, the new people the Tea Parties get elected in will need to enter in, not just as new-comers needing to learn the ropes, but having a clear mission to start changing Washington in the ways that it needs to be changed, and fixing the financial mess Obama has put us in with HIS socialist and miserably failed policies.

One of the things the creators of “Lost” talked about in the pre-finale show Sunday was that the characters in the show were not just lost because they crash landed on this mysterious island, but that they were lost in their private lives, as well.

Over the six seasons, they said, it was like they came to find themselves, and did so in finding something in each other; in their inter-connectedness, they found meaning, and in that, they “found” themselves again.

Because of what Obama has done, however, I now see America having become “lost”, just as the characters in “Lost” were. We are a nation divided, and it is something that needs to be repaired just as much as the financial mess Obama is leaving us.

For those who have read what I have had to say in this blog, I want you to know something. The things I have said here have not been said in anger, or because I am being negative, or--God-forbid--even racial. I have said them because there was a deep sense in me that they were things that had to be said.

No, they may not have been rooted in facts as much as I would have liked for them to have been. My opinions were pretty much just that--my opinions, based on the kinds of things I had seen taking place with Obama and this country.

As much as I was able, in the limited amount of time I had for me to write what I did here, I tried to say things that other people were not saying--people like Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, and Sean Hannity. Those people kept more to the facts, and in worked to engage the American people as much as they could in order to try to save this nation.

We have seen, with the Democrats pushing “global warming” and now a more watered-down version of it in “climate-change”. Those in power look to squash capitalism with the financial reform bill, tax us greatly with the “cap and trade” bill, control us with through health care and move us to a one-world socialist-communist government that will enslave us.

This is what we have to be concerned about, even if it does not actually happen to us. We have to be concerned about it--and very concerned--because chances are that at this point, those who would try to do this will not try to do it all now. They know the American people are onto them. It would be that having got a foothold onto this nation as they have, if the American push back against them, they will only try to enforce themselves harder in return. It would be their nature.

It may also be, however, that with the American people having been engaged as they are, that Obama and his crew will step back and try to lure us back to sleep so they can come back another day, try again, and have an easier time of it. Instead of enslaving us, they will enslave our kids. Already, I think this administration has already been working to do that. Either way, we have to remain vigilant, dedicated, and engaged.

But that alone will not be enough. Obama got into office on a mantra of “change”; because people were wanting to see change. That “change”, I believe, is seated much deeper than just change in Washington. They were responding to global-warming, to going “green”. Like the people in “Lost”, the American people were feeling lost, because things were getting too out of control. They wanted something more out of life, not just out of our government.

Obama would have us all following HIM. But that is the wrong way to go. It will be the wrong way to go because of where he is looking to take us. Our manifest destiny has to come about more because of what each of us does for our own selves--not what our leaders in Washington wants to do for us. In the end, what they say they will do for us will only really be for themselves--power and money.

The promise of what this nation can do for us will not, and cannot, be in what our government does for us. For that matter, the promise of what can be cannot reside just in what we do for ourselves. There is more to it than that, and the TV series “Lost” shows us what that is: the REAL promise comes in what we do for each other.

I will still be adding to this blog from time-to-time, but my focus now will be spent on ideas that started forming within me during Desert Storm and after 9/11. I will be working on a new web-site that will eventually replace this one. Its message will be much more positive. Watch for more about it here on this blog.

The new web-site will hold a vision of where it is America can go, after we work to undo that which Obama has done to this nation. It will not be something based on following me. It will require me to only will move further out of the picture as time goes on. The vision is not “my vision”. It is a vision…for everyone else…

Wm. Scott Francis

Barack Obama gave the commencement speech at West Point yesterday (May 22, 2010). In his opening remarks, he said the following:

“To the United States Corps of Cadets, and most of all, the Class of 2010 -- it is a singular honor to serve as your Commander-in-Chief. As your Superintendent indicated, under our constitutional system my power as President is wisely limited. But there are some areas where my power is absolute. And so, as your Commander-in-Chief, I hereby absolve all cadets who are on restriction for minor conduct offenses. (Applause.) I will leave the definition of "minor" -- (laughter) -- to those who know better. (Laughter.) “

I have to wonder what this was really about. It was said as a joke, given the laughter following it, but not a very good one with his addition leaving “the definition of minor to those who know better”.

What really concerns me, however, is his off-handed remark about there being “some area where my power is absolute”. It is something that may have slide past most people, but it raised my hackles the moment I heard it.

Why? Because other U.S. presidents seem to have a much better sense about their position and the power that they hold, with perhaps Richard Nixon being about the only exception to my mind. Those who hold the office are pretty much known as the most powerful person in the world, but our presidents, up to now, temper that with knowledge that having been elected to the office by the people, they are servants to the people.

Barack Obama has been known for his arrogance, and he has made other off-handed remarks before, such as ‘he intends to be in the office for awhile‘ and caught glimpses of what he is really like with how he pushed health care through.

Now that he has his health care, he is acting more like a United States president, and did in the whole remainder of this West Point address. While it may have sounded nice to the ears, those glimpses that we gleaned of Obama before health care was passed should tell us something of what he is really like. While one might allow “my power is absolute” to slide, for him to say something like that at all says something about how he really views himself.

And he certainly believed it with how he pushed health care through, and continues move his agenda through while ignoring the actual state of the union and only giving lip service to doing anything about the economy and jobs.

While some may disagree with me on that, if we are at all concerned about our individual rights and freedoms, we should not ignore these tell-tale signs that may or may not hold a lot more significance to us later on.

What is going on with America? After all these years, we are still “fighting” a war on drugs. Quite personally, the reason this war is still going on is only because our “leaders” are simply not doing all that they should do to stop it.

Let’s face it--drugs have become a plague on our nation. Drugs are bringing us down. Liberals might defend a person’s “right” to have take them, but that hardly means we should be allowing the drugs to get into America in the first place. If they are illegal to have in this country, then let us make them *really* illegal. Let America take a hard stance on these drugs. Rather than punish the American people who are taking and addicted to drugs, let us take a much firmer stance on those who are pushing and bringing the drugs into this nation.

We should declare a formal war on drugs to put a stop to them, and do what President Bush did initially with terrorism--that we will go into any country that we find pushing drugs and use our special forces to take these people out. If we catch the king pins, we give them the death penalty--automatically. Once the drug cartels see that we are dead serious about stopping drugs, and that it means their lives if they push it, they WILL stop.

My feeling is that we just lack the political will to deal with this problem because political games are made of it just as illegal immigration is. America has to start taking a firm stand on things again. There is entirely too much pussy-footing around with things these days, and that is why we are in the pickle that we are.

Everyone has learned to play the political games to get what they want, both within our own government, and internationally. That is why Obama is getting away with picking this nation apart the way that he is.

Remember the old adage: “United we stand, divided we fall.” America is divided, and becoming more and more fractured as time goes on. Obama is making this happen, and we now have one state plotting against another, as we see with Arizona and California. California refuses to do business with them, and Arizona strikes back saying they will darken L.A.

This is not good, and we must see what is happening to us, and put a stop to it--now!

If we are to remain the “United States of America”, we damn well better put aside our petty differences on other issues and focus on just one thing: UNITING TOGETHER!

Weather Control and the Obama Administration

This may be something of a far stretch, but I am so tuned in to suspecting everything that this man is doing that I can almost believe there is some kind of weather control going on, even to the point of the earthquakes in Haiti and Peru, to the volcano erupting in Iceland.

The timing of all those events seems so ironic. In addition, however the government, the EPA, and Al Gore managed to do it, we saw how scientists gave in and supported with erroneous data the whole idea of global warming, which has now been reduced to a more benign “climate change”.

It is bad enough the media in this country is supporting Obama so much that they ignore anything that looks negatively upon him. But now we cannot even trust what our scientists are saying about the planet we live on.

But something is going on there, and my feeling is that with cap and trade and climate change being somehow tied in with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, it will all be about building houses in this country that will be “green”. Well, to do that, I think there could be a movement in this country to tear down existing houses are rebuild them using re-cycled materials from those houses instead of allowing them to be re-bought by the Americans who lost them.

It may be hard to imagine that weather control is really happening. I heard rumors of it being something our government wanted to do years ago. At that time, however, the reason for researching the idea was that it could be used against our enemies. Well, it is, except with Obama, it is Americans who are the enemy, and weather control is being used more against us, and perhaps, too, selected areas of the industrialized world, like Europe. Lets have more tornadoes, earthquakes and floods so houses will be destroyed and have to be rebuilt, and volcanoes to interrupt travel.

The idea that there may have been weather-control going on first occurred to me with New Orleans and Katrina. Also, right around that time, we heard of earthquakes out in the Indian Ocean, and all of a sudden there was so much talk about “tsunamis”. How much talk was there of those until that earthquake occurred.

Then we started hearing of level 5 storms, and the whole way the government responded to Katrina has to be suspect, even under Bush. But not that it was his doing.

With the whole movement and urgency that was created with global warming, and how scientists bought in to the idea, would it be all that difficult to believe that they were also behind the research that would have to go into weather-control, as well?

Along with Katrina in New Orleans, we also had the long series of wild fires in California. Weather control would not be so much the culprit behind them, but the fires could have easily been set to help to the calamity that was going on at the time. With everything being set in motion for Obama getting into office, and his redistribution of wealth, I could see where the California wild fires could play into it, as well as add to California’s deficit difficulties.

The economy, home mortgages, and jobs in this country should not that difficult to fix--normally. But this is all a global shift in power, and to make that happen, the people behind it all have to keep everything in a crisis mode to keep things moving toward their goals. So it just does not fit into Obama’s strategy to do anything about them right now. The longer that this man is allowed to have his way, the worse it will be for us Americans.

Obama tauted an idea of “redistribution of wealth”, and we did not question it during the election. We assumed that at the least, that redistribution of wealth would take involve only citizens of this country. We felt that he would do more to help the poor, and that idea could have sounded okay at the time, but what we are seeing now is a complete raping of the wealthy in this country, and that is killing the economic engine.

All this may be a difficult pill to swallow, I agree, but America has never seen the kinds of things that are happening to day. Many would call this just yet another “conspiracy theory”, but I am starting to feel all these different theories probably do have some truth to them. The way our media is so quick to discount each and every one of them, knowing how the media is controlling things for Obama now, I would be more willing to believe that there is a lot more truth to them than we are lead to believe. 

And these days, it would be pretty hard to know what is real in the weather, and what could be weather controlled.  But if you look around at the circumstances that all seem to revolve around Obama, it should make one wonder it, at least.

I think it may have been a little surprising to some that Democrats were not on the bandwagon in regards to financial reform of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Why all of Wall St., but not the institution that started it all? Like everything that goes on with this administration, it should be looked at with suspicion.

It is hard to know what exactly Obama is planning to do with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and just recently, it looks to have some connection to cap and trade. But Obama did give Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac a blank check for doing home loans, and you have to figure that has something to do with his redistribution of wealth in this country.

This man is doing nothing about jobs, and precious little about the economy. When he and Biden talked of a “jobless recovery”, everyone shook their head and wondered how that could be. Well, it is a jobless recovery because Obama has so much control over money in this country that he can pretty much control what happens with the economy when he wants it.

Obama does nothing about the illegal immigration problems in Arizona because he does not want to do anything about it. The banks are not lending money for mortgages, but when they begin to, those loans will be going to the illegals in this country that he will give amnesty to, and those who lost their homes will be out in the cold still.

It is quite amazing to me that our representatives--especially Democrats--in Washington are so willing to follow this man when he is so for helping anyone elsewhere in the world, and not for the people in this country. And that shows itself in both Arizona, and more recently the flooding in Nashville, Kentucky.

If conservatives do get back in power in the next two elections, they need to look under each and every rock where Obama and his crew could have hidden things and undo each and every bill that has had an adverse affect on this nation.

I suggested in an earlier post here that it might be a good time to do away with political parties, or at least that just the Republican party disbanding might be a good and bold move for the tea party movement. Tea partiers may well disagree with me on that, and I will admit myself that at this point in time such a move would be more detrimental than helpful. But my intent was not to convince one of how it needs to be done as much as to try to encourage just different and out-of-the-box thinking about things that can be done. It is not about yes or no, it’s a good idea, but more okay, I see what you are getting at, but maybe we this other idea would be better…

In regards to keeping this blog under Obama’s radar, I just want to say that I said that not because I worried about his seeing what I have to say about him, but that I am just wanting to share my thoughts more with people who are genuinely interested in what I have to say here because they are concerned about the direction Obama is taking this nation.

Know, too, that because I work at a totally separate job, I have a difficult time editing and fine-tuning what I say here. In the interest of keeping up on what is currently happening, I put things on that may not be said quite as well as I would like to say them.

Some would probably respond to what I am going to say here that I am just being way too negative, but this is not coming from a place of negativity. It is coming from a sense of urgency about what is happening to America. It is one thing to change things to make things better because things have denigrated to a place where we have to get our nation back on track, and quite another thing for people to be blindly lead down a road of change that is the result of political maneuvering to get an agenda through that destroys all that this nation stands for and has built up since its inception. And I will not apologize for my feeling this strongly about what Obama is doing to America.

Obama does not share the values of presidents who have come before him. He sees things totally different, and while he may be very articulate and motivating, we simply must look at how this man operates, and learn from it, and we saw that quite clearly in how fiercely he fought for health care.

Obama did not fight for it so fiercely because how great health care reform was needed. Obama failed to objectively listen to what changes really needed to be made. Oh, he certainly made a show of it that he was, but his strong arm tactics, and bribes showed a different side.

If Obama was a man that really stood for good values and principles, and wanted to offer something that would be truly good for the people, he would have included some sort of tort reform in his bill.

The CBO had to come out with preliminary figures that looked good to Obama, only to help his health care get it passed when everyone else knew that with his out-of-control spending, America could not afford across-the-board reform as he wanted it. Any other president would have realized that he would have to settle for less, but not Obama. For him, it had to be everything.

He pushed it for over a whole year without lifting a finger to do anything about jobs. In the beginning, he used the need for health care reform as a precedent to economic recovery and jobs, but just like the urgency of passing TARP and the stimulus bill, after their passage, there was no real sudden improvements in anything. The urgency of these bills was to improve a crisis situation. The crisis was in their passage so Obama could make the changes that he was wanting--not for America, but for his agenda.

Now Obama has his health care, and despite his saying he was going to have “laser-like focus on jobs”, he still has not done anything to get Americans back to work. His focus has been anywhere but on jobs. The only thing he does about unemployment in this country is to extend unemployment benefits.

And people are settling for that. Well, the continued extension of unemployment benefits is only being used as a pacifier, to keep people from rising up against him because they are still getting free money from the government.

There should be outrage about how Obama is ignoring the people of this country. People should be screaming for him to get the economy moving so that results in real job creation. Instead, he spends his time demonizing CEOs and Wall St. for their greed, and urging passage of yet even more job-killing bills in the name of financial reform that can only restrict investment in the marketplace, and cap and trade (or energy development, as they are spinning it now) that will tax people even harder in this nation.

I could go on and on reminding you about what this man has been doing, but he is counting on Americans forgetting about these things he is doing if he goes out in his town halls and talks positively about the changes he will bring us, and only acts more presidential now because he has what he wanted the most with his health care.

Do not be deceived. The leopard cannot change his spots, and we have to realize that Obama has not changed one iota in what he wants to do to America, despite how he presents himself now.

Quite frankly, I am tired of his rhetoric and town halls. He spends more time pushing a message that sounds good to selected groups of people who support him than talking to the nation as a whole and leading it forward by actually resolving the real problems that are confronting us.

Rather than knowing how to deal with them himself, he appoints committees to study the problems, like job creation, and economic solutions. We never heard the results of what his committee came up with for jobs, and the economic one will be no different.

He is very quick to criticize President Bush for all his “failed policies”, but fails to see the failure of what he himself is doing to this nation. If he was being fully honest with the American people, he would convince us upfront about his intentions for America, and not cloak it all behind what really amounts to propaganda to get what it is he wants.

And I would not feel that way if he would not call tea party protestors who are acting in a responsible way in their disagreement with his policies at Nazis. Obama will take pains to point out how many people are dying because they do not have health care, but not from people killed because of illegals and drugs coming across the border. Arizona is taking matters into their own hands because they have a crisis in their state. Obama, who uses a crisis as a catalyst for change, refuses to do anything about THIS crisis, and he does so because in this instance, it is working better to leave it alone. All he needs to do is finish building this fence, and the problem that he keeps harping about would not be an issue. Obama is creating more contention about illegal immigration in this country than doing anything to really fix the problem. He is more anxious to talk about the injustice that only might come about than to do anything to really fix the problem.

For me to view Obama as a being the tireless worker that he makes himself out to be, he has to stop working on town halls, stop what amounts to propagandizing the people, and more on what America really needs.

Yes, I may well come across as being very cynical about everything this president does, but the reason I am is because I have seen the color of this man’s spots, and Obama colors everything he does in the same way.

I am tired of this boy scout who does not know how to adequately respond to emergencies like the British Petroleum oil spill in the Gulf. He spends more time finger-pointing who is at fault than working on the resolution and cleanup of the spill. As a community organizer, Obama--of all people--should have the skills for organizing people to deal with these situations.

Whether the explosion on the oil rig was caused by a genuine failure or accident, or intentionally blown up for political reasons, Obama is either reluctant to take the quick action he should have responded to this “crisis” because it works for his agenda to make it an ecological reason for not allowing more off-shore oil development, OR he is ill-equipped to know how to respond to it.

Either way, it does not make Obama look like a capable, decisive president that he needs to be as president of this nation. It only serves to illustrate how he knows how to act--and the emphasis here is on the word “act”--when it comes to trying to those things that involving taking over this country.

People may not feel he has that kind of intention, but when Obama does not show himself having the same values of those who have preceded him, who looks to fulfilling his own agenda, and spend more time making it look good to certain groups, rather than having a vision that all could follow, this is quite exactly what it is culminant to.

I will continue to be adamant in those feelings until he can prove to me otherwise, and hope that in reading all this, you will find some agreement with me in the things I present here.

At this point, America should stall as long as possible, or completely stop just about any nominee Obama tries to make. This president is not governing our nation--he is only driven by a socialist agenda to change it. Obama is about “social justice” which looks at law not as America has looked at it before. We ran on a system of law that spelled out in concrete terms what is right and wrong under the law.

If Obama has his way, that interpretation will be thrown out the window. What is right or wrong will be thrown out the window. What will be important is only the needs of society as a whole. What is important will be determined by the government. While there may be parts of it that could sound good to some, to allow this kind of change to our system of law will open the door to changing America in all manner of ways--ways that we may not even imagine right now, but that could cause pain and suffering for all.

The fact that the paper trail on Kagan’s writings and opinions are thin is not because she has not written much. I had heard that she had written much under the Clinton administration, but much of it has not been reviewed yet, so it is not open for public review. It seems by now it should have been. I am thinking that maybe it has not been made public because of how radical she is, so this administration will do everything they can to keep it that way as they can so she will not have a problem being confirmed.

We have clearly seen what this president is doing to America. We know he feels he can change the Constitution because it is an imperfect document, and he is doing everything he can to demonize Wall St. and big business because he does not like capitalism.

America has to just flat-out reject this president, and stop him from doing anything further to ruin this country. Our representatives have got to understand what this man is intent of destroying America, and stop being so polite and playing by the rules all the time. If our representatives in Congress care at all about America and what is happening to her, they MUST flat-out oppose him.

Right now, because they are still trying to put the finishing touches on the political machine that will control everything that goes on in this country, Obama and his henchmen--and I have no nicer words for anyone in his administration (except for Robert Gibbs, who I can only laugh at every time I hear him at a press conference)--still need to keep up a nice appearance. They have to look like they are advancing ideas that they can convince the American people are good for us, but will be actually very detrimental to America as we know it. They will refute any negative suggestions that they are doing otherwise.

Once the Obama administration starts up their machine and gets it rolling, it will be much harder to do anything in this country. We still have a chance if we can call their bluff on the things they are trying to accomplish, expose the Progressives for who they truly are, so we can get them out of Washington.

We are in an ideological war with these people, and are too closely divided as a nation that we view Democrats as the enemy we have to conquer. The problem is the Progressives, the liberals who really have designs on this nation to make it something different than the great nation it has been.

We can overcome Obama and what is being done to this nation if control can be taken back so those things that keep America safe and strong are upheld. At the same time, however, there also needs to be an openness about change in this country that does not segregate different groups in this nation, and could be truly good for America. To do that, we must put an end to the finger-pointing, name-calling, blame-setting that serves to do nothing but create more anger, frustration, and fear in this nation, and do more to set an atmosphere of peaceful, yet honest, dialog that will result in answers that will work for all Americans--not just a select few.

Change does not have to consist of making things different because things were wrong in the past. It has to come about from a constant process of looking to make things better. America started off on the right track, but it is not enough to look back and merely hold to the past. We must also look to the future, and how best to adapt the principals and values to an ever-changing world that helps us not to repeat the mistakes of the past but instead preserves our destiny as a great nation that can adapt to change.

Social justice will lead us to a place where the Constitution that this nation is based upon can be ignored. It will allow our government unprecedented powers when our founders knew of how such power can be abused. Different groups may fight to support the idea of social justice because of what it will mean to them, but we must look beyond ourselves to what will be good for all.

To do that, we must have a leader who can be trusted to move America as a whole in that direction. If we do not have that in Obama, then we must strongly defend against giving him more power that will enable him to make change that will be detrimental to the American way of life. Allowing Kagan to become a life-long Supreme Court judge without a good fight will be to send a message to Obama that he can have his way with America. We must stand stand firm, and hold forth…and prevent our Supreme Court from becoming one that accepts the entire idea of “social justice”. To do that, we simply have to stop Obama, because we have to realize that he will do all he can to get it that way. It will be detrimental to America when that happens.

Note:  The following nine posts are a lot of reading, but they comprise a whole major line of thought.  I hope you will take the time to read all that I have put here, but my hope is that it will be worthwhile reading...

=====================================

Yes, we need change here in America. I have been very critical of Obama in these pages because he is not giving America the kind of change we were expecting, and to me, is entirely wrong because he looks to radically change America in ways that will harm her, not make her better.

If I have been hard on what I say about him, it is because he has shown us his true nature in different things he has done. What he does, however, is sugar coat his actions with strong words at town hall meetings so people will forget those things, make them think the better of him and put their trust in him that eventually what he is doing will be a good and the right thing that America needs.

Believe me when I tell you that I have watched Obama carefully, and I am not taken in by him at all. He is a wolf in sheep’s clothing, and a black sheep, at that. Please understand that his color would NOT be a factor to me at all, except that with Obama, his values are not American values, and that does make him dangerous to America.

I believe America does need to change, but not in the way Obama is doing it. His “fundamental transformation” of the U.S. looks to make America something altogether different, something less than it is. The danger is that once he is able to make the changes he wants to this country, America will fundamentally lose what she had before.

Obama is a radical, and had a radical upbringing. Be ever-mindful of the church that he attended for 20 years, of how he learned under Rev. Wright, and what Rev. Wright felt about America. “God *amn America”, “God *amn Amerikkka” Those words are indicative of Wright’s strong feelings about America.

Obama has made light of his relationship with Rev. Wright, saying, "I don't think my church is actually particularly controversial”, adding that “Rev. Wright "is like an old uncle who says things I don't always agree with.” Can we really believe that after 20 years? I do not think so. “Rev. Wright married Obama and his wife Michelle, baptized their two daughters and is credited by Obama for the title of his book, "The Audacity of Hope." Obama knew Rev. Wright very well, and Obama’s relationships with other radicals like Bill Ayers should tell us that radicals were the ones Obama was most attracted to.

Obama's Pastor: God Damn America, U.S. to Blame for 9/11

Obama's Pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Has a History of What Even Obama's Campaign Aides Say Is 'Inflammatory Rhetoric'

By Brian Ross and Rehab El-Buri
March 13, 2008

But I would refer the reader to another place:

Tea Partiers, we really have to come out against the idea of our “having to take America back”. The idea gives power to the idea that Obama has already won the fight. It puts us on the defensive, and we have been in that position ever since Obama has taken office. We have seen the damage he is doing to our economy, much less our nation, and we simply must get in an offensive position with him and the radicals who support him and his rhetoric and propaganda. His leftist ideas go so clearly against the Constitution.

Glenn Beck was using a scene from “Lord of the Rings” to make a point, where Gandalf and his band were crossing through the Mines of Moria and Gandalf stood fast to against the Balrog that was pursuing them, and defiantly declared, “You shall not pass!”

We need that kind of determinism now, more than ever.

History has shown us that great civilizations last on an average of about 200 years. We are passed that point, and Obama has shown us that he means to change America as we know it. The question is how is he going to do it?

I have my ideas about it. I will offer them here in this blog for what it is worth. I cannot say these things as statement of fact. It has been a matter of observing different things going on, and seeing something of a pattern and painting a picture that seems to fit it. If it has merit, then America is indeed in trouble, and the solution to it will be increasingly more difficult as time goes on.

We have a system of law in this society the Obama administration seems to feel that they have a right to ignore the law when the end justifies the means in fulfilling their agenda, and in undermining our freedoms and the strength of our society for their own purposes.

This is particularly so in seeing the loosening, if not abandoning, moral standards in this society, particularly sexual. While liberals make it seem that it is a good and fair thing to do, and people would be apt to give in even more to their carnal desires, THIS is not the time to be doing it! At a time when some of our enemies are declaring a holy jihad against this country because of our decadence, it is hardly the time our society to become even moreso!

But it would make perfect sense IF Obama is really looking to take over America and make it something altogether different. And, if you look at all the different logos that the administration designs. Right now, Obama even has one for the Wall Street Reform bill! How long will it be before he redesigns the American flag itself? This is what we are in for if we allow this man to continue making “change” in this country!

We cannot just look at the 2010 elections as our chance to take back control of Congress. We would be just as foolish to believe that come 2012, we will be able to vote in someone else. Those have to be the goals, not the plan. The plan has to be something else entirely, far more than improving tea party organization. It needs to be an idea that catches fire with all of America, much as Obama managed to do with his call for change and “Yes we can!“ during the election. We need to stop Obama in his tracks, and what he is doing to this country, and we can only do it with something bigger than Obama.

The reason why is because now that Obama has his health care, he will not stop now. Winning health care has increased his momentum, and he will do whatever he has to do to ensure victory for himself in both 2010 and 2012. Make now mistake about it.

Obama is one that will use his very persuasive talents any way he can. He will lie through his teeth, bribe, arm-twist, and do whatever other means he needs to sway voter turnout. We know this is to be the nature of the person we have in office, and he is using the internet to engage the American public with his propaganda!

President Bush told us that we were involved in an ‘ideological struggle’ against terrorists. I will tell you that the most dangerous terrorist we have to be concerned about is Obama Hussein. We have seen that he means to bring about change--change that is not consistent with the Constitution of this United States.

Nudge, and nudge a little more. He gets his way by creating legal precedents in which you can nudge things even more, then put a glittery spin to it to make it sound good. It is very subtle, but before you know it, we will no longer have the America we used to know.

What will happen is that America will be eventually renamed to something else. The stars and strips will be redesigned. We will not see the standard red, white and blue flying proudly as it used to. Instead, a new flag will be raised, all in the name of…Progress. The White House and our government buildings will be torn down to ensure America cannot go back to how she once was.

Obama has used his message of “change” to mean he can remake America entirely. That is what we are in for. If, by chance, I am wrong about it, it makes for no less reason for Americans to guard against it.

The Tea Party is being tauted as the Party of No--Hell No! And while that may say a great deal about how fervently we feel about this nation, we must do something more to sway the opposition to our side. America is divided pretty much equally. We must become united again.

I have my ideas about how we can do that, and what form it needs to take. They need to be implemented a certain way to be most effective. I need much more help to do that the way I would like. If you have read these words of mine, and they have had some affect on you, I could use your help in getting my ideas out there to people who can help them along.

I am willing to present my ideas freely here, but it is difficult for me to keep up with the ever-changing environment we find ourselves with Obama. So I could really use your support, and time is of the essence. If you find the words that I write here as good and worthy of other’s attention, please tell others about this site, particularly those who are in a better position, perhaps, to do something more with them. Thank you.

Racism did not seem to be the large problem that it is now under Obama and Eric Holder. Suddenly it is a huge issue with this administration. Is it just because we have a black man in the office? No, it is not. It is because we have a liberal black man in the office. A liberal black man who sat and learned under a black preacher--in the person of Rev. Wright--who taught him hatred of the white man, and everything the white man represents.

So rather than be a president who leads this nation, we have a president who is getting back at the white man. It is not just capitalism that he hates. It is the white man.

Because it is important for Obama to have a crisis in play in order to make the radical changes to America that he wants, watching Obama as I have, it appears to be no different in regards to racial problems.

The illegal immigration issue goes hand-in-hand with it because it can be to accomplish the same goals. During the Bush years, the Democrats tried several times to push through an amnesty bill, and the people stopped it each time. Now people are rallying against the Arizona illegal immigration law. City workers in San Francisco and St. Paul are barred from taking business trips to Arizona.

There has also been movements to make English the official language of the United States, while some states like Alabama and Georgia try to accommodate individuals in this country by offering driver’s tests in 12 different languages.

People are polarized on the issue, but the real problem lies not in each of the above issues. The real problem is what is taking place here in America. We have severe problems in this country, and the problems are only getting worse.

What we have in Obama is one who is using these racial issues to his own purposes.

Rather than take a strong stance on the problem, he steps back and allows these problems to fester and grow worse.

Racism is a touchy issues, as is illegal immigration. We cannot ignore the issues, yet to try to find an equitable solution to the problems will only result in more anger and frustration from those who do not like the solutions.

What needs to be done is what Obama is NOT doing--something about the problem. Past presidents failed to fully take on the issues, either, though. And the reason they did not do anything is because either they played it safe by playing it politically correct, or there were political games going on, or it was simply too hot an issue to touch with voters.

Obama may be doing some of the same things himself, but with him, it is different. Why? Obama does not share the same values as our other presidents. Because he is black, plain and simple. He also has a Muslim background. He puts on trial Navy Seals doing their duty to their country. He gives our enemies, foreigners to this country, Miranda rights, and looks to try the terrorists in civil courts instead of military ones, and looks to free terrorists instead of keep them as prisoners of war.

Illegal immigration could be fixed if we really wanted to, as well. The reality of these situations, however, are being blurred by political maneuverings. Obama wants these “crisis” to exist because they benefit him to do so. He can use them to make the radical changes that he is making to this nation.

The charges about racism in the Tea Party is happening because it is manufactured hate. Black liberals are spouting racism because what is behind what Obama, Eric Holder, Al Sharpton, Maxine Waters, Bertha Lewis, Van Jones, and other black liberals is that blacks have an opportunity to seize power from the whites. It is about Black Power. Holder wanted a conversation about racism. Cambridge professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. made charges of racism against the police were called to the scene, and Obama’s famous “the police acted stupidly” before he got all the facts of the case. But we all saw how their the police had done nothing wrong.

Now, more recently, there have been false charges of racism against the Tea Party. The charges of racism in the Tea Party movement are not being made just to discredit the movement. They are being made to use racism to keep white people from standing up for their country, opposing Obama, and letting them wrestle power from whites so they can take over this country.

Obama needs to discredit the Tea Party, however, for two reasons: 1) the Tea Party movement itself is a threat to his re-election, and 2) he needs blacks, and Hispanic on his side so they will vote for him, as well. More demonization from the person who has demonized many different groups.

Is this a way for an American president to act, to demonize every group as he is? No, it is not! And it is amazing to me that he gets away with it as much as he does. We see what he is doing to this country, and yet, and we do not try to stop it. Yes, we are looking to the elections to fix it, but America is being attacked NOW, and we have to do more to defend her now--not later!

There is very little, if any, racism being shown at the Tea Party events, and everyone knows it. Even if there was, one cannot use it to destroy a whole movement, and we know that liberal elements are out to infiltrate the Tea Party movement and will try to make it seem there is racism at the rallies.

Why should there be such focus on racism from this administration so suddenly, when there has not been this kind of problem before, and it was quite clearly whites who put Mr. Obama in office? It is not being done just to keep people from opposing Obama himself because he is black, although there are those who would have us believe that it is.

Former ACORN head, Bertha Lewis, come out and told a group of Young Democratic Socialists that “They are coming. And they coming after you. And they are going to be brutal and oppressive.” and that the Tea Party movement is a “blatant uncovering and ripping off the mask of racism…”

Lewis does not say who “they” are, but in the context of what she says about Jim Crow laws, segregation, and internment, let us say it for her. She is referring to “whites”. However, the racism now is not coming from the whites. So let us not be afraid to say where it is coming from: it is coming from the blacks, the liberal blacks, who have not let go of their anger about what was done to them in the past, and want revenge now. Lewis’ words are about blacks wanting to wrestle power from the white man. They have their opportunity with a liberal black man in the White House, and they seizing every other opportunity to do it. They are in no rush, but they are VERY determined.

Michele Obama’s brother just recently appeared on ABC’s “The View”, and he told of how he had scrutinized Barack Obama when Obama first started dating Michele. Her brother told the view that Barack he definitely passed as a good and genuinely concerned and caring individual.

And he is. It shows when you see him with his wife and children. And I am sure that he wants to make good changes to America while he is in office. But that is not all he wants to do, and we are seeing a different side of him coming out that wants to do what he sees as necessary for his people, as well.

Lest you think me a racist for some of the things I have said here, I am not. I am just attempting to say what others may be afraid to say themselves, to paint a different picture of what I see as really happening in America, and what needs to be said about the situation in which we find ourselves today.

My purpose for doing so is not to raise more hatred toward blacks, I assure you. I simply do not come from that kind of place.

It has to a be “problem” because it is in the playbook for how Obama brings about change America. Some sort of crisis has to be occurring in order to make the radical changes to America that he wants. There is not really a problem here; it is important that you see how this president is operating. The racial flames are being fanned by Obama intentionally because it is in his interest to do so.

It is quite clear people are against Obama because of the policies and agenda he is forcing upon the American people, and they do not like it. So that is not the reason.

My feeling is the reason is much more obscure. When you have an administration that uses corrupt practices and works behind closed doors as this one has, you have to believe that things are going on in the background that no one knows about. So as I watch this administration, and the things it does, I try to piece things together that create a possible picture of what is really going on in Washington.

I make no accusations that anything I come up with is completely true. All I am doing is offering up my observations about things from what I am given largely through the public media. I would love to be able to do the research to really find out what is happening. All I am able to do is give you, the reader, something to mull over in your own mind with the hopes that if any of it does ring true to you, it will stir you to action when you would not have done so otherwise.

This administration has shown more concern to terrorists than to the American people. One has to wonder whose side he is really on. I have written about the different things he has done elsewhere in this blog. I will not bother to itemize them here. I will, however, point out something else:

Much of Europe is already under socialized medicine. For the mighty America to fall under it, as well, when it already had the best health care system in the world, is to put a good portion of the white man world under such a system. Are other countries under socialized medicine? If not, why not? What is good for the goose is good for the gander. What should be the difference?

My feeling is that what this is all about is bringing down the white man’s world so anyone else of color will have control. For all of what the white man has created and done for the world, and all the development of intelligence data to see what is really going on in the world, it seems he has suddenly become pretty stupid about what Obama is doing right under their noses.

My sense about what is happening is that with Osama’s “redistribution of wealth” is that it will not be restricted to only those living in the United States. Obama means to redistribute the wealth of this nation to the whole rest of the world. Doing so would make him very popular among other peoples of the world.

When Barack Obama became the Democratic presidential nominee, Michele Obama had said that for the first time she was really proud to be an American. Michele, I would like to ask you personally, “Are you still proud to be an American?”

Obama is doing to racism is setting it back 200 years in this country. Rather than move beyond slavery, he is making white Americans pay today, who absolutely nothing to do with slavery early on in this country, pay for what their ancestors did many years ago.

First, he is blaming innocent people for misdeeds done that had nothing to do with it. You will try to make it a legal issue under your “social justice”, but it is not a fair one, and I say one that is more about power than justice. Obama just wants to take power away from the white man, and let the black man have the power and wealth.

Well, black people were getting power and wealth in this country under capitalism, and from what I have seen, are quite content to have the opportunity to experience the American dream themselves. The American dream is about *self*-empowerment, and black people have taken advantage of the freedom to do that themselves, and been just as successful as the white man in their endeavors.

So what I have to say to Obama is this: “Get on with it! Let go of your anger and your thirst for justice about what the white man has done! It is in the past. The white man has learned his lesson, and has changed his ways. Yes, maybe there are still some who have their prejudgecies, but we do not have the segragation we had in the sixties. My feeling is that if you still see it, it exists more in the poor suburbs where crime and drugs are high, and there exists a large amount of gang activity where cops have to be tough on criminals because of the environment they are in.

I sometime think terrorism is not so much a real problem as it is a useful tool to you so you can make some claim that racism still exists because we are having to fight Islamics, and you to use racial profiling as to make people afraid to use screening on a major group of people when it is putting a real strain at our airports, unconvincing travelers, and costing airports huge amounts of money. We have to screen each and every traveler and because of the terror threat.

I know a 94-year old woman who was not aware of the restrictions on items on planes who had bought some expensive (for her) make-up for herself, only to have airport security take it from her and simply toss it in a garbage can.

And still, while we are busy checking everyone else, a Nigerian who had terrorist links was allowed to board a plane with explosives in his under pants. Mr. Obama has only blocked investigations and punishing such people, as he has also done with the Ft. Hood terrorist. Americans have wondered why he does this sort of thing, and I am beginning to wonder if it is not because he will take every instance he can to claim racism in a case, and protect the guilty because of the color of their skin.

If he was really interested in putting an end to racism, he sjould start with a simple premise that he does not ever seem to take, and is something I learned about racism long ago: racism will end when the color of ones skin is no longer an issue. That is what our justice system looks to do. But under ’social justice’, it does just the opposite. It makes race a legal issue. Justice is no longer bound by the rule of law. It is handed out as a way of undoing social wrongs, and that becomes a way of exacting revenge, not justice.

After 9/11, President Bush got on TV and explained to the American people the importance of instituting a new law to help fight terrorism. That was the Patriot Act. At that time, there was a lot of discussion about how that law would take away the rights of Americans all across this land. The American people took a huge risk in allowing this law to be enacted, but we did so because we believed what President Bush told us about the danger we were facing and the need for this type of law to be passed.

Now, with the passage of the Arizona Illegal Immigration Law, Hispanics are massing together about how their rights are going to be impeded, and it involves a much smaller and restricted group of people than the Patriot Act ever did.

If Mr. Obama was leading this nation--as he should be--instead of transforming it as he is--then he would recognize the problem that Arizonans are facing in that state, and do something about it.

But no, rather than do something to help protect all Americans, he ignores the problem completely because he is more concerned about the rights of only a selected group of individuals, and allows this much bigger problem to fester and grow there.

If Mr. Obama was doing his job properly, he would get in front of national TV, as Bush did, state the desperate situation that exists in Arizona, and the need for some type of action there. With a black president in power, Obama could easily quell Hispanics fears by offering his assurance that he will not allow this law to be abused.

As president, if Obama did the right thing and finished the wall, and increased border security--which would put some Americans back to work, albeit only temporarily again--to actually fix the problem, there would not be any need for this law at all in Arizona, it could then be repealed, and people could live in peace and safety there.

When Mr. Obama speaks at a town hall meeting, and you hear sound bytes of how he will protect, or is protecting, this country, he may sound convincing and strong. But if you are resident of Arizona, living with this problem, his words can only sound hollow and false, just like his “laser-focus on jobs”.

Getting 150,000 people back to work is simply nothing to brag about when you have a 10% unemployment rate in the nation. There are MILLIONS out of work. Obama needs to lead this nation as a president of this country should, rather than just changing it. Our security is at stake, and our problems need to be fixed now, not down the road as an element of changes Obama wants to make upon us on the road to socialism.

It is with a great and heavy heart that I say I am both saddened and angered about the state of the country right now, and at Barack Hussein Obama for putting America where it is today. In fact, I will say that I am DAMN angry about it.

And…I am sick of this DAMN arrogant attitude about himself and how good he is making this country, like his DAMN health care bill that is ruining the BEST damn health care system on the planet. Mr. Obama, you are NOT making this country better. You are RUINING it! And I hope to God all the people you are feeding your propaganda and lies to will wake up to what you are doing before it is too late!

This country was country was founded and established by God-fearing men who looked to God to help them create a system of government that allowed for “certain unalienable rights” that they felt should be the rights of all men. Yes, Mr. Obama, you may very well have a different point of view about things because your people were bought over from Africa as slaves, and Native Americans here were killed and slaughtered and relegated to reservations. And being Moslem, as you are, you apparently have differing views about terrorism, as well, from most other Americans. And yes, you may very well have bitterness about what America has done in the past.

But for you to attempt to change, or worse yet, destroy those things which this country has created and force re-distribution of the wealth of this nation because you feel it is justified in light of the past, is to turn back everything that has been accomplished in the last 200 years that this country has been in existence.

Yes, maybe some people, like the CEOs of Wall St. that you demonize, have become greedy about the money and wealth they create for themselves. But in your deciding to take that wealth away from them makes you the judge and ruler over them, and I am quite certain you feel justified in that. I am sorry, Mr. Obama, but God is their judge, and they will answer to Him in due time. It is not your role.

I have heard many times that Communists would be biding their time and plotting to take this country over ever since the 60’s. Back then, I could not even phantom such a thing. Now I can. I can see how it could work. It may not be completely correct, but even my being able to see how it might should put us all on our guard, if we truly care about this country.

My sense about it is that Progressives worked silently within our system to make capitalism grow as it did. We became foolishly full of ourselves, and our accomplishments. We were happy, and we did not have to worry about anything.

Then 9/11 happened, and we were all rudely awakened and taken out of comfort zone. I now look at President Bush, who many Americans have such distain for now, I now feel was more of a pawn in what was really happening. And believe me, I had a lot of negative things to say about him myself. But Bush did what he felt he had to do, given the situation in which he found himself, and I believe him to be a good man and patriot to this nation while he was in office. We need to change our opinion about him.

The Progressives are the real villains, the Socialists and Communists who are really working to take this country away from us. They polarized this nation, and we all know the saying, that “a house divided cannot stand”.

We need to see what is really happening to us. America was a great nation, and we showed the world how good it was by what we accomplished. No it is being systematically dismantled by Barack Obama Hussein. We need to come back together as a nation, and stand firmly against what is being done to us.

But that alone will not be enough. We need to look at ourselves differently, and see how we to forge a new and different future for ourselves. For the world. We need to do it in good ways, not the way Mr. Obama is doing it. It is all wrong, and it will come to naught.

Mr. Obama, you sought to bring about change, and the American people--most of them white people--voted you in because they wanted change themselves, and they entrusted you to bring about the change they wanted.

They oppose you now because you were not honest with them. You did not bring about the change they thought you would bring. They thought you would make Washington more responsive to the people, to do away with lobbyists and special interests.

Rev. Al Sharpton’s view was that Americans voted you in because Americans wanted socialism. No, Mr. Obama, Americans did not want socialism. They would never want it--not if they honestly knew what it would be like actually under it. You, Mr. Obama, have said you are not a socialist. But as I believe Bill Clinton was playing with the truth when he declared that he “did not have sex with that woman”, you are playing word games yourself, using the mantra of “change” to make wholesale changes for you own benefit--to get back at the white man for the things he had done in past.

Mr. Obama, no matter how well you may justify your actions about what you are doing, you are acting not much differently than whites acted many years ago that you hold such contempt for now. You do not give credit for the good changes that have occurred with the white man. Through your forced re-distribution of wealth, you look to make the white man pay today for that which other white men did in the past.

Let go of your anger, Mr. Obama. Let it go, because in your holding onto your anger, because of wanting some type of revenge, you become no different than the white men you despise. Let your anger go, and set upon the task of undoing the damage you have done to this country. It will not be that difficult--if you do the right things.

This country was the envy of the world. We held the standard high, and sought to have others do the right things, the good things, that would enable them to reap the same benefits as this country has. But envy can work two ways: it can make one decide to strive for the same things, or, on the other had, become angry and look to destroy that which they desire to have some of the same of.

Could America improve? Yes, it can. But the changes you seek to make, Mr. Obama, should not be forced changes. Forced changes will do nothing to improve the general welfare of the world. It will only create yet more contention and anger and that will result in more war, death, and misery.

You wanted to make changes, Mr. Obama, changes no one really wanted to see. Change brought about through propaganda, coercion and deceit cannot be good changes, and it does not benefit mankind as a whole. We are onto you. We know what it is you are looking to do to this country, and we shall not allow you to do it.

I call upon all men and women, our representatives, senators and leaders in all fields, CEOs and small business owners alike to stand firm and demand that you stop with your systematic destruction of this, our great country. I call on Republicans and Democrats to find common ground and unite in purpose to maintain the control of this country. We need to stand on conservative principals to keep this country strong. We need Democrats to help move the country forward. I thoroughly believe we can do this, but it will take a vision of where it is we can go to do it.

I have such a vision. And I will share it here, openly and freely, if I can feel that my words here are being read with interest, and I have your attention. Email me, and let me know that I have. The more I feel I do have your attention, the more I will share with you about what I have. Mine is not to lead. Mine is to only motivate, and empower others.

We need to start with our representatives that we are putting into office in this next election. They cannot enter in as newbies, needing to learn the ropes. They need to enter into Congress with purpose and conviction, on a mission to restore this great country. With a singularity of vision, they need to show a fierce determination to make the kind of changes in our government we believed Obama would make. But we have to go further than that. We need to also help and lead the world in resolving the problems that are confronting us all.

We Americans need to regain our strength and spirit. Americans are a proud and resourceful people. We have to look beyond just ourselves now, and do the right things, we will regain our stature in the world, and regain the world’s respect…

It is with a great and heavy heart that I say I am both saddened and angered about the state of the country right now, and at Barack Hussein Obama for putting America where it is today. In fact, I will say that I am DAMN angry about it.

And…I am sick of this DAMN arrogant attitude about himself and how good he is making this country, like his DAMN health care bill that is ruining the BEST damn health care system on the planet. Mr. Obama, you are NOT making this country better. You are RUINING it! And I hope to God all the people you are feeding your propaganda and lies to will wake up to what you are doing before it is too late!

This country was country was founded and established by God-fearing men who looked to God to help them create a system of government that allowed for “certain unalienable rights” that they felt should be the rights of all men. Yes, Mr. Obama, you may very well have a different point of view about things because your people were bought over from Africa as slaves, and Native Americans here were killed and slaughtered and relegated to reservations. And being Moslem, as you are, you apparently have differing views about terrorism, as well, from most other Americans. And yes, you may very well have bitterness about what America has done in the past.

But for you to attempt to change, or worse yet, destroy those things which this country has created and force re-distribution of the wealth of this nation because you feel it is justified in light of the past, is to turn back everything that has been accomplished in the last 200 years that this country has been in existence.

Yes, maybe some people, like the CEOs of Wall St. that you demonize, have become greedy about the money and wealth they create for themselves. But in your deciding to take that wealth away from them makes you the judge and ruler over them, and I am quite certain you feel justified in that. I am sorry, Mr. Obama, but God is their judge, and they will answer to Him in due time. It is not your role.

I have heard many times that Communists would be biding their time and plotting to take this country over ever since the 60’s. Back then, I could not even phantom such a thing. Now I can. I can see how it could work. It may not be completely correct, but even my being able to see how it might should put us all on our guard, if we truly care about this country.

My sense about it is that Progressives worked silently within our system to make capitalism grow as it did. We became foolishly full of ourselves, and our accomplishments. We were happy, and we did not have to worry about anything.

Then 9/11 happened, and we were all rudely awakened and taken out of comfort zone. I now look at President Bush, who many Americans have such distain for now, I now feel was more of a pawn in what was really happening. And believe me, I had a lot of negative things to say about him myself. But Bush did what he felt he had to do, given the situation in which he found himself, and I believe him to be a good man and patriot to this nation while he was in office. We need to change our opinion about him.

The Progressives are the real villains, the Socialists and Communists who are really working to take this country away from us. They polarized this nation, and we all know the saying, that “a house divided cannot stand”.

We need to see what is really happening to us. America was a great nation, and we showed the world how good it was by what we accomplished. No it is being systematically dismantled by Barack Obama Hussein. We need to come back together as a nation, and stand firmly against what is being done to us.

But that alone will not be enough. We need to look at ourselves differently, and see how we to forge a new and different future for ourselves. For the world. We need to do it in good ways, not the way Mr. Obama is doing it. It is all wrong, and it will come to naught.

Mr. Obama, you sought to bring about change, and the American people--most of them white people--voted you in because they wanted change themselves, and they entrusted you to bring about the change they wanted.

They oppose you now because you were not honest with them. You did not bring about the change they thought you would bring. They thought you would make Washington more responsive to the people, to do away with lobbyists and special interests.

Rev. Al Sharpton’s view was that Americans voted you in because Americans wanted socialism. No, Mr. Obama, Americans did not want socialism. They would never want it--not if they honestly knew what it would be like actually under it. You, Mr. Obama, have said you are not a socialist. But as I believe Bill Clinton was playing with the truth when he declared that he “did not have sex with that woman”, you are playing word games yourself, using the mantra of “change” to make wholesale changes for you own benefit--to get back at the white man for the things he had done in past.

Mr. Obama, no matter how well you may justify your actions about what you are doing, you are acting not much differently than whites acted many years ago that you hold such contempt for now. You do not give credit for the good changes that have occurred with the white man. Through your forced re-distribution of wealth, you look to make the white man pay today for that which other white men did in the past.

Let go of your anger, Mr. Obama. Let it go, because in your holding onto your anger, because of wanting some type of revenge, you become no different than the white men you despise. Let your anger go, and set upon the task of undoing the damage you have done to this country. It will not be that difficult--if you do the right things.

This country was the envy of the world. We held the standard high, and sought to have others do the right things, the good things, that would enable them to reap the same benefits as this country has. But envy can work two ways: it can make one decide to strive for the same things, or, on the other had, become angry and look to destroy that which they desire to have some of the same of.

Could America improve? Yes, it can. But the changes you seek to make, Mr. Obama, should not be forced changes. Forced changes will do nothing to improve the general welfare of the world. It will only create yet more contention and anger and that will result in more war, death, and misery.

You wanted to make changes, Mr. Obama, changes no one really wanted to see. Change brought about through propaganda, coercion and deceit cannot be good changes, and it does not benefit mankind as a whole. We are onto you. We know what it is you are looking to do to this country, and we shall not allow you to do it.

I call upon all men and women, our representatives, senators and leaders in all fields, CEOs and small business owners alike to stand firm and demand that you stop with your systematic destruction of this, our great country. I call on Republicans and Democrats to find common ground and unite in purpose to maintain the control of this country. We need to stand on conservative principals to keep this country strong. We need Democrats to help move the country forward. I thoroughly believe we can do this, but it will take a vision of where it is we can go to do it.

I have such a vision. And I will share it here, openly and freely, if I can feel that my words here are being read with interest, and I have your attention. Email me, and let me know that I have. The more I feel I do have your attention, the more I will share with you about what I have. Mine is not to lead. Mine is to only motivate, and empower others.

We need to start with our representatives that we are putting into office in this next election. They cannot enter in as newbies, needing to learn the ropes. They need to enter into Congress with purpose and conviction, on a mission to restore this great country. With a singularity of vision, they need to show a fierce determination to make the kind of changes in our government we believed Obama would make. But we have to go further than that. We need to also help and lead the world in resolving the problems that are confronting us all.

We Americans need to regain our strength and spirit. Americans are a proud and resourceful people. We have to look beyond just ourselves now, and do the right things, we will regain our stature in the world, and regain the world’s respect…

At this point, I might submit that it might be time and a good idea to end political parties altogether. The parties have polarized this nation, their strong organization seems to foster the political games that go on in Washington, along with strong lobbying and financial support from businesses.

Take the health care bill, and the refusal of the Democrats to include tort reform to reduce and control the medical malpractice suits. It is one the main things wrong with our medical system, but despite that, and how urgent Obama spoke of the health care system needing reform, he totally ignored tort reform because of the Democrats having the strong lawyer support. Ignoring such a crucial element of health care belies his argument that health care needed to be totally overhauled, and shows how the lawyer lobby affects how things get bogged down in Washington.

I have written how Obama has demonized Bush and Cheney, the CIA, CEOs, Wall Street, and others, but he never speaks out against the lawyers for the fees that they charge their clients. He sees a need for regulatory reform of our financial institutions, but ignores the outrageous fees lawyers charge, their predatory ad campaigns, or their greed.

And why? Because the lawyer lobby contributes so much to the Democratic Party, it would be a political anathema to do anything against them.

Obama ran on the need for major change in Washington and Americans voted for him on the premise that he would do so. But his focus has been on doing anything with Washington except to make things worse there. We know corruption has grown since he has gotten in. We saw it in everything he did to get health care through, despite the strong opposition to it from the American people. Corruption works in the background. It does not parade itself around out in the open. So you have to look for it when you think it exists.

If we can convince Democrats of the dangers we are facing in this country, find common ground in defeating Obama for the greater welfare of this nation as a whole, we can put a huge dent in Obama’s plans by doing away with political parties. Doing so will unite us and make us a stronger force that Obama will not be able to contend with.

With a populace that is now more engaged with what is going on in Washington, this very well might be a good time to put an end to political parties. If the tea party movement looks to restore only restore the Republican party, America will still remain a polarized nation.

If we put an end to the political parties--even if it happens on only the Republican side, people will be drawn to what is going on even more in Washington because they will see a major shift in how things are done in Washington.

With people running as individuals, and people in the tea party movement supporting the right kind of people, my belief is that it will draw people from both ends of the political spectrum. There needs to be a bold and daring move for the tea party movement to be successful in the fall elections. People are feeling at a lose about what is happening to America and the talk that America will be heading the same direction as Greece soon.

There are very strong forces at work in the world today. We must react to these forces in a way that will generate the power to counteract them. If we were to do this thing, it could even have the ramifications and power to steer the hope in the rest of the entire world when they need something so badly, as well. It would see America coming forth out of the chaos in a new and powerful way that would put our enemies off balance. They are successful now because they feel they know how Americans will react to things. Evil is always successful in the world because good is always reacting to it. What needs to happen is good has realize its full strength to make sure evil never gets a firm footing in the first place.

If we do this, people would really feel a fresh new wind blowing across America, even overseas, and this will take the wind out of Obama’s sail…

Finally…America needs a bullish president; a president with good values who know what America needs; a president with the right values, who values the right things, like truth and honor, for whom the American public can look to, for which this nation had grown strong as a result of those values.

This person must be one who, in the words of Paul Newman as Judge Roy Bean in the 1970 movie of the same name, must be of “strong moral fiber”, the fiber other great American presidents had, like Geoge Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Teddy Roosevelt for whom people can really trust in. We need one whose word is as good as signature, if not better.

Despite Mr. Obama’s great and powerful oratory skills, his words are largely deceitful rhetoric. He may mean well in all the things he is doing, and may even feel his policies will eventually work where others have not. But the ultimate and deciding question is “Are his policies going to be good for this nation, for America?” Or will it be for the country that he sees as Amerikka?

What America needs right now is a president whose moral compass points to true north. And not just one, although we need one right now to get and put this country back on track. What America needs, and which America does best with, is a series of presidents whose moral compass points north--and stays there.

America is suffering today because we have one who ran well, and won, because he lead us to believe his compass WAS pointing north. But people like Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Gleen Beck dug into his background and tried to warn us that this person’s moral comass--this person who is in the White House now--was actually pointing south.

This country was founded on true and good principals, by men who had faith in God, and acted accordingly. They founded a country that astounded the world by what it managed to accomplish. America has been a jewel in the world; the light that shown bright in the dark. America kept the bar raised high because of what it accomplished; because what America did was good. America produced a standard of living that was--at our time--the envy of the world.

You can accuse America of being tough on its neighbors, but America did so not to dictate and rule over them, but because America wanted to share with the world how they too could reap what we have here. Perhaps…if America is at fault for anything…it is because we only got too sel-centered in our own lives about what it is we were doing. But we meant well.

My feeling is that America had reached a peak. Looking back now, however, I question how it was reached. Before, I would have said that we just became too full of ourselves. And other probably would have gone along with that.

But my feeling now is that other forces were at work, and have been for a very long time. Progressives--the communists and socialists among us--have long been trying to bring down this nation, and they have done so ever so slowly so we would not suspect them. And in that gradual decline, we have even started to believe things they were saying, and found ourselves embracing what they were touting.

We became a divided nation in the process. We allowed ourselves to become weak, and to lower the bar that America had always held height. And once we started lowering that bar, it became easier for us to let it go lower…and lower…and lower.

So now, America still fights, and fights strong. But we now fight for different things--the wrong things. And we defend our rights to do so. It seems right that we should do so, and some will make a big todo about it. But what it is doing is weakening us as a people; weakening us to where the line between right and wrong, good and bad, becomes so blurred we cannot tell where the line is anymore.

And, I am feeling, that is precisely what the Progressives in this nation want. They are stirring up trouble, and want to. It is not because they are looking out for what is best for you and I, but beause they want to do what they are doing to us now--bringing us, bring America--DOWN!

Their arguments may sound even good to us, that we should fight along side them. But that is just what they want, and they want it so we will not rise up against them in the process. And we will not regret it until we see (and it may be our children, or children’s children) what it is they really want to do to this nation. And once we do see it, we will most assuredly regret that we allowed ourseves to get sucked in by their deciet.

We have seen the deceit in what the Progressives are doing to us. Some are try to to stop them. But their efforts will not be enough, because the Progressives will not stop, and having gotten a stranglehold on this nation as they have, it will mean our moving out of our comfort zone to stop them.

That is something we do not really care to do. It is uncomfortable for us to do it. It means being something we are not anymore--tough, self-reliant, determined, and most of all…united. Face up to it, America: we are no longer a “United States of America: We are becoming the “Divided States of America”. We have been divided between red and blue states. And America will be divided even frther if we do not do something about it right now.

We must do a very hard thing: se must stop the Progressives that are looking ot lay ruin to this nation. Communists and socialists can put forth a message that may appeal to some of us, but we must know that their ideas are all wrong, have never worked, and will lead to more pain and suffering for all of us if their thought is adopted all too eagerly.

Racially, we are becoming divided further between white and black, white and any other color, for that matter. American greed is not our problem. Unfulfilled non-American envy is our problem. That is why terrorism came about, and terrorism is looking to bring us down because of it. We are not our own enemy. We are only a weakened nation, one that will ultimately be taken over because we are letting it.

The problem is not the white man. The white man has been learning his lesson. The white man has regretted, and tried to correct the wrongs we have done in the past. But it would be just as wrong to undo the good that he has done here. Rather than quarrel about what was done in the past, rather than tear down what the white man has created, the thing we need to do--the right thing, the good thing--is to realize the good things, the wonderful things America has wrought in the world.

We should not let them be torn down, and dismantled so our wealth can be equally, as Barack Obama has been trying to do. What we end up doing in having our wealth forced-spread to everyone equally is to kill the goose that laid the golden egg, dismantled the great machine that allowed it to happen, so itwill cease to continue churning out the wealth so others can benefit.

It may sound appealing to “spread the wealth” around equally, so no one goes without, but in doing so, we allow that wealth to be sread among those as well who do not serve it, and would seek to take it from us by force otherwise. Why would, why should, we do that? For them, it is not about spreading the wealth around equally.

“Spreading the wealth around” to them is taking away the wealth from those who have it, and giving it to others. And, as we have seen with many well-meaning programs, like the “oil-for-food” program in Iraq, or aid sent to Darfur, is that unscrupulous people end up hoarding it for themselves. No, America. Osama’s “spreading the wealth around” is not a good ideal. The intention may be good, but the result will be disastrous.

What America needs to do is learn from her mistakes, learn from what has been happening in the world. We have too many people on this planet. We ruin our country sides with too much development. Our food supplies are dwindling. What we cannot pull out of the oceans and rivers, or pick off naturally-grown tree or bush we farm to produce enough of, which are not as good for us nutritionally for us. Businessmen loose sight of doing something for the common good rather and fight unrelentingly for bigger profits, no matter how they do it, or will process.

These are things that cannot be fixed by spreading the wealth around equally, or increasing government ot legalize and legislate every aspect of our lives. Far more money can be saved, far more can be done, and far more things can be done well if we all just learn to do one simple thing: become better people ourselves. Start there. Then begin looking at the common good, not the bottom light, not the profit margin. Do that, and we can, and will, make the entire world a better place to live.

Start there, and hold on to that one basic premise. We will stop the hate. We will stop the wars. We will save the planet. The wealth will be shared--not just the wealth, however, but opportunity, development, libery, and most of all true happiness.

Note:  I apologize for the length of time since my last post, but I have been working on a whole series of different subjects that I wish to put on all at one time.  Hopefully, they will be on this next weekend (of May8-9, 2010).  I have much to say about things that have been in the news of late. 

In President Bush’s last State of the Union address, Bush said that “We are engaged in the defining ideological struggle of the 21st century. The terrorists oppose every principle of humanity and decency that we hold dear.” It is interesting how that struggle has changed during just the first year of the Obama administration: that struggle is now taking place against our own president.

We have heard Obama say how he will “continue to fight for his health care” no matter what, and we saw how committed he was in that fight in the final days before actually getting his bill. There were closed door meetings, strong-armed tactics, bribes, coercion and lies. There has been corruption in Washington before, but Obama has magnified it many times over and taken it to a new height. Our government is not running the way it once did. It runs on corruption. That is how Obama is getting things done in Washington, and it must be stopped!

Recently, Al Sharpton had told Geraldo Rivera from Fox News that “we'd have to say that the American public overwhelmingly voted for socialism when they elected President Obama.”, “to transform the country the way the president had promised. This is what he ran on.” Yet he contradicts what Obama himself has said, that he is not a socialist. How are we to reconcile the two statements?

It is all a matter of how you interpret what they say. Go back to Bill Clinton’s famous statement, that he “did not have sex with that woman”. If you interpet “sex” as meaning intercourse, he can say with an honest face that he did not. But he uses that statement dance around what really happened, around just having “oral sex”.

Obama has learned to dance around the truth just like Clinton, except that Obama has turned it into an extravagant Grand Ball! So while Obama does not see himself as a ‘socialist’ per se, he does see himself as the agent of change. While it may incorporate socialist ideas, where he is taking America is somewhere else entirely. And we have seen that in that he does not respect the laws of the United States, and views the Constitution as a document that he does not bother to follow and he can change as he pleases, .

Americans wanted change, but Barack Obama assumes too much if he believes that he can change the America we know and love to a totally different country! From what he has shown us, that is what he intends to do, to nudge it slowly--maybe not even during his own term in office, but so that others later will be able to nudge it further. Eventually, this country will not be at all what we once knew it to be.

Obama and others would have us feel that we are being negative, even biased, and paint tea partiers as violent and racist. It will not be enough to remain passive and quiet while they say these things. Doing so will only allow them to get the foothold on this nation that we do not want them to have.

What we must do is stand firm and hold forth against those that are trying to wedge this country away from us. We must be bold in our efforts, and challenge them fiercely to expose their real intentions to those who would believe their crafty words to make it seem they are honorable and have America’s best interest at heart. When they misrepresent the truth, we must correct them to let them know that they will not get away with it.

What is important here is not getting caught up the word play of words. What is important is that we Americans that hold to the principals and values this nation was founded upon stand firm and hold forth to ensure our freedoms remain intact, and not let them slowly be withered away. What is important is that we safeguard the Constitution, and all our freedoms.

While the whole nation was needing him to do something about jobs, his entire focus this past year has been health care. He is still ignoring jobs and the economy, and only gives it lip service while he remains focused on his agenda. Now that he has health care, he is now instead going after a value added tax, illegal immigration, and cap and trade, all while America suffers.

I will always give Obama the benefit of the doubt that I could be wrong about him. But I feel I have seen his true colors. I do not trust him one bit, and I will not back down on what I say about him. It is not up to me to prove myself wrong. He will have to prove me wrong through his policies and actions. The media were supposed to be the watch-dogs of this society, but since they have since given up that role, so we must now watch over things ourselves, and we must do it anyway we can.

If we stand for truth and justice--real justice, and not social justice that looks beyond right and wrong to what “should” be done--then no matter what Obama says, if he (or any president, for that matter) is hiding things, or has ulterior motives, it will be found out. Truth cannot be hid. It can only be ignored, and repressed.

The Tea Party movement is wakening people up. People are becoming interested in what is going on, and becoming empowered and organized. It is not what Obama wants to see. He was hoping that by making everything a “crisis” and rushing huge bills through that others had ready beforehand, he would gain complete control before such a thing could happen as with the Tea Party movement.

Now he either continues to fight against it--as he has said he would always do in regards to his getting health care--or, he backs down. If he backs down, and resigns himself to holding office for only one-term, he will try to leave things in a state that someone else can pick up the reigns later on.

So we must defeat Obama and get the Progressives out of our government, in whatever positions they hold. There is no room for them in America‘s system of government. They are the ones who have been working to bring down this country. Then we must undo the things they have done to this country.

We must “stand firm and hold forth”. Obama needs to see and hear something more than protesters chanting and waving signs. What he needs to see is a public that still wants change, but not HIS style of change. We need to stand firm, as hard and unyielding at a stone wall, because only then will he see that what he is trying to do will NEVER come to pass. Held together by the truth, and the principals for which this nation was build upon, we must be of one mind to undo everything this president has done to our country, no matter how difficult it may be.

But that is not enough. Some people will still look to them for answers, because conservatives have nothing to offer up in answer to them. The message has to start with rebuilding America, in all the different ways it to--not just the government. Then we have to move on to re-unite this country, so Republicans and Democrats are able to work together in regard to their respective concerns, not fight against each other, and to find solutions that benefit the common good without each party having to compromise on their principals. It is the answers to the problems we face that we have to learn to compromise upon.

However, we must not look to just move the country over to the right. Divided as we were, Obama was able to influence half of America to his side. Because of that, we have do something that will unify the country as a whole. The Democrats are not the evil ones here. It is the Progressives among them. They are the ones we need get out of our government.

The danger here is having a one party system. It leaves the voter no choice at all. Being polarized as this country has been is not any better. As Americans, we all must come together and work first to put this country back together again, and secondly, work to find new solutions to guard against this from happening again. We need to this because our future is dependent on it. Only by learning from our mistakes, and creating new approaches and goals for ourselves will we continue to grow in the way America really should--as the shining example to the world of how to do things.
