"I Want Your Money" trailer

Posted 27 Aug 2010 in Barack Obama, Democrats, economy

Interesting preview for a documentary about the Democrats’ systematic destruction of the U.S. economy. Set against the backdrop of today’s headline – 67% of Americans don’t approve of Obama’s economic policies, the film takes a provocative look at our deeply depressed economy using the words and actions of Presidents Reagan and Obama and shows the marked contrast between Reaganomics and Obamanomics. The film contrasts two views of the role that the federal government should play in our daily lives using the words and actions of Ronald Reagan and Barack Obama. Two versions of the American dream now stand in sharp contrast. One views the money you earned as yours and best allocated by you; the other believes that the...

Obama Hauls Arizona Before the UN Human Rights Council

Posted 25 Aug 2010 in Barack Obama, illegal immigration, outrage, treason

I’m shocked, appalled, and especially disappointed that we have a U.S. President who feels he needs to run and tattle to the UN in an attempt to bully a sovereign U.S. state into amnesty for illegal immigrants. At last, we see the true face of “hope.” File this under “treason.” And add it to the many reasons President Obama needs to be impeached and removed from office. Apparently Barack Obama is not content to make a federal case out of his immigration feud with Arizona; he just made it an international one. The president’s first-ever report on U.S. human rights to the UN Human Rights Council contains a rich vein of offensive material. So far, one aspect has not...

Obama’s socialist takeover must be stopped

Posted 24 Aug 2010 in Barack Obama, Obamacare, socialism, totalitarianism

I’m glad to see I’m not the only one who thinks President Obama’s plans for “change” are a ruinous and systematic transformation of America into a socialist tyranny. Jeffrey T. Kuhner wrote a scathing column in The Washington Times that’s a definite must-read: President Obama has engaged in numerous high crimes and misdemeanors. The Democratic majority in Congress is in peril as Americans reject his agenda. Yet more must be done: Mr. Obama should be impeached. He is slowly – piece by painful piece – erecting a socialist dictatorship. We are not there – yet. But he is putting America on that dangerous path. He is undermining our constitutional system of checks and balances; subverting democratic...

An open letter to the GOP

I’ve been working on a similar post for the past week, but work has kept me too busy to complete it. So when I read my Twitter-buddy Greg W. Howard’s blog today, I figured I’d just go ahead and link him. He says everything I wanted to say, and probably says it better than I could have. Dear GOP Leaders and Candidates: Due to the unconscionable arrogance and failures of the Democrats upon controlling the White House and both houses of Congress, control given to them by the incredible failures of the GOP when it held a similar position, it appears the GOP may once again regain control of the House and the Senate in November. All the polling...

Mean Ol’ Meany sounds off on the Ground Zero mosque

The past couple weeks have been super-busy for yours truly. So I think a little blogrolling goodness is in order. Especially because my blog buddy Paul over at Mean Ol’ Meany is laying the smack down in inimitable style. There is very little that I have to say about the Religion of Peace building a victory trophy on Manhattan. There is little to say because I am not an idiot. You see, it has been hundreds of years since the Muslims have any achievements at which to point. Theirs is a culture of regression, just like Democrats. They want to return to their heyday, circa 900. No, Muslims have not accomplished anything since that time other than blowing up...

California reporter tells GOP candidate: ‘We’re Not Interested’

Posted 13 Aug 2010 in Democrats, liberals, media bias

Nope, there’s no left-wing media bias. Via The Other McCain: A reporter for the Torrance (Calif.) Daily Breeze sent an e-mail to a political consultant saying the newspaper is “not interested” in covering Republican candidate Mattie Fein, who is challenging Democratic Rep. Jane Harman in California’s 36th District. In the e-mail sent Wednesday, Daily Breeze reporter Nick Green told consultant John S. Thomas of Thomas Partners Strategies, “Don’t call or e-mail us – we’ll call you if we’re interested. And if you haven’t got it yet, we’re not interested.” Green also told Thomas not to send Fein campaign communications to his Daily Breeze colleague, Art Marroquin. Nothing to see here, folks. These aren’t the droids you’re looking for. “I’m...

Obama administration funds Islamic mission trips

As if the Ground Zero mosque wasn’t offensive enough, the U.S. State Department is spending our tax dollars to send Feisal Abdul Rauf (the Ground Zero mosque imam) to proselytize in Saudi Arabia. “He is a distinguished Muslim cleric,” said State Department Spokesman P.J. Crowley. “We do have a program whereby, through our Educational and Cultural Affairs Bureau here at the State Department, we send people from Muslim communities here in this country around the world to help people overseas understand our society and the role of religion within our society.”“It is to foster greater understanding and outreach around the world, among… Muslim- majority communities,” said Crowley. “We’ve done this many, many times, with many leading figures… over the...

Muslims admit the Ground Zero mosque is a deliberate provocation

In the same spirit as my “questions about the Ground Zero mosque” post, Muslim columnists Raheel Raza and Tarek Fatah add their voices of common sense against Imam Rauf’s antagonism. (h/t: Ed Morrissey) When we try to understand the reasoning behind building a mosque at the epicentre of the worst-ever attack on the U.S., we wonder why its proponents don’t build a monument to those who died in the attack? New York currently boasts at least 30 mosques so it’s not as if there is pressing need to find space for worshippers. The fact we Muslims know the idea behind the Ground Zero mosque is meant to be a deliberate provocation to thumb our noses at the infidel. The...
