Obama Threatens August Social Security Checks

Our cowardly President, Barack Hussein Obama, in a last-ditch attempt to defeat the resistance of Congress (and therewith, the will of the people) to his beloved debt ceiling increase, threatens to withhold August social security checks if the ceiling isn't raised by August 2nd. And, from whom will he withhold this money? From people who have paid into the social security fund all their lives! People who were promised by the government that the money they "contributed" to the fund would be there to help them when they retired. He would rather do that, than reduce government spending by downsizing our government, or eliminating some of the true entitlement programs, such as welfare.

Here's my idea:

The entire Congress, along with the Executive and Judicial branches of government, take an immediate 50% pay cut.

The White House staff reportedly just got an average 16% pay raise, so let's take that away and reduce their pay by another 16%.

Repatriate 20-30 million illegal aliens to their country of origin, and then secure our borders, thereby eliminating trillions of dollars of unnecessary taxpayer expense in welfare payments, medical expenses, and financial losses by our hospitals.

Cut off all foreign aid to countries who have not proven themselves to be friends and allies. Why should our tax dollars be spent to support those who wish us nothing but harm?

Withdraw from the United Nations and require them to leave the country. The United Nations assesses dues upon all members, which is fair... but, the United States assessment is greater than the next top 5 nations combined! And, on top of that, we supply the meeting hall. Is this equitable?

The government should stop borrowing money for the purpose of lending it to other countries. Let them get their own financing!

And why are our tax dollars being spent to build/refurbish mosques in the oil-rich middle-east? These are the same countries that are gouging us for every drop of oil that they pump out of the ground. Our government doesn't spend our tax money on building or updating Christian or Jewish houses of worship here, and they shouldn't! STOP DOING THAT IN OTHER COUNTRIES!

Eliminate welfare as a family business - one that's passed along from generation to generation. Close the "Welfare-r-Us" businesses, and replace them with a program that provides the less fortunate with a subsistence income for 18 months. During that 18 months, they must attend a government-sponsored training program designed to provide them with a marketable skill upon completion. At the end of 18 months the recipients must report to the nearest State-run employment service, where they will be interviewed. This applicant will be given priority placement over anyone currently employed who is just searching for a new job. There is a big difference between indigence and indolence - let's not punish the indigent so that we may reward the indolent. Let the "grasshoppers" earn their way in society, just like the "ants"! Welfare should be a once in a lifetime condition of dependency. But, it should not be for a lifetime unless the recipients are physically or mentally incapable of supporting themselves (as verified by a medical evaluation board).

Eliminate the almost innumerable, and in most cases frivolous (as in a political "thank you for your support") grants for ridiculous things.

Obama apparently wants to be viewed as Emperor of the World, passing out trinkets to his subjects, while destroying the country we love. Anyone who votes for him in 2012 should be very careful sitting down... they're liable to break their own neck.

AMERICA STANDS ON THE BANKS OF THE RUBICON

On the 10th of January, 49BC, Julius Caesar dispatched one Roman Legion across the Rubicon - a 29 km long river in northern Italy. The river flows from the Apennine Mountains to the Adriatic Sea through the southern Emilia-Romagna region between the towns of Rimini and Cesena. The act of soldiers "crossing the Rubicon" initiated a civil war in the region. The rebellion was squelched, and Caesar became the unrivaled leader of the Roman world - and "crossing the Rubicon" became a popular idiom meaning to pass a point of no return.
The "leadership" of the United States of America now stands on the banks of our own Rubicon. "They" - the legislative and executive branches of our government - have ignored the expressed will of "We the People" for many years. However, since our most recent election, the disdain of our arrogant leadership for its people has been in plain view.
The liberal-progressive left wants a revolution. They ignore our Constitution. They wish to rebuild the United States using the socialist foundation of Marx and Engels... an overhaul which the conservative-traditional right stands firmly against. The liberals are in the process of destroying our economy. Revolution, like most other things in this world, is not free - it comes with a definite price. They may well get a revolution... but it will not be the revolution they desire.
Are "they" willing to pay the price to support the government's attempt to enslave a free people? Perhaps... but they find our Constitution to be a bothersome impediment to their agenda.
Are those who espouse freedom willing to pay the price to maintain it? From every indication I have seen the answer is YES, they are.

The GOOD NEWS IS: Dems Doing Everything They Can To Give Away The House and Senate in 2010!

Well, the Obama governmental fiasco continues. It's just one thing after another: government bailouts, government controlled healthcare, government controlled industry, government controlled lending, government caps on executive salaries (I agree with the concept of executive caps, but not by government mandate), government directed climate control, government Czars (doing exactly what that isn't already under some official government directorate?), more taxes, amnesty for illegal aliens, government subsidies for ACORN and similar criminal activities, and on, and on - ad nauseum. To give you an idea...

Someone once said (this saying - one with which we are all familiar - has been attributed to many different people, including Samuel Johnson), "The road to hell is paved with good intentions." And, I suppose, there are many instances in which that has been true... but NOT in the case of the Obama administration! Obama and his minions in the White House staff, Cabinet and Congress are intentionally leading our country into socialist/Marxist ruination. There were no "good intentions" in Obama's being rude to the Queen of England during his first State visit to the UK. There were no "good intentions" in borrowing money from communist China to attempt to stop our economy from bleeding green! There were no "good intentions" in Obama's World Apology Tour! There were no "good intentions" in Obama's deference to Arabic leaders, and his submissive bow to Emperor Hirohito of Japan! And there are no "good intentions" in the Democrats plans for universal, government controlled health care! There are no "good intentions" in mass amnesty for as many as twenty million illegal aliens, who will further drain our welfare, social security and Medicare coffers by increasing the already unsustainable strain upon them! These are all well-planned moves to increase our dependency upon the government. Nobody wants these things except those who will profit from them! Our government has left "the road to hell", and now has us on the fast track to hell.

"Redistribution of wealth" is not an American concept. In our Democratic Republic, your "fare share" is the end result of what you have contributed your talents, labors and expertise to earn. You union lovers who think redistribution of wealth is a good idea, apparently believe you will be exempt from contributing to that redistribution. The on-going greed of the labor unions, and your excessive wages have greatly assisted in the creation of the unsatisfactory financial condition our country is now in! (Perhaps Obama has promised the SEIU special dispensation from increased taxes to support his liberal give away programs. These mandated taxes will be dumped into expanded social[ist] programs and increased benefits and pay raises for our worthless Congress.) Anybody who believes that you can expand social programs in an already financially and morally bankrupt government without increasing taxes is a fool. Where would you think the money comes from? The government doesn't have a paper route, or retail kiosks in the local Malls. The government has no income producing job other than collecting money from We the People - those of us who actually perform physical or intellectual labor for our hard-earned money. We are rapidly becoming a...


The Obama administration has created a multitude of distractions in an attempt to keep Americans from discovering what the subterfuge is actually hiding. The more balls he can keep in the air for us to watch, the easier it will be for him - and his masters - to destroy our intended form of government. Who is "The Great and Powerful Oz" anyway? Who is the puppet master behind the scenes? Is Obama himself truly the mastermind of our destruction? There are any number of individuals, organizations and governments who desire to see the United States of America implode. Surprisingly, even those who have become extremely wealthy under our existing system, such as the ultra-left George Soros, and the majority of the Screen Actors Guild. Then there's the United Nations, and any country that is envious or resentful of our previously unheard of success in slightly over 200 years (like Cuba, most of the countries below our southern border, and the Arab nations). This administration is selling us out at every opportunity.


If you can judge a man's character by the company he keeps, simply open your eyes and look at what Obama has chosen to surround himself with - Communists, Marxists, socialists, and assorted revolutionaries and terrorists! Where are the "checks and balances" to keep the government from running roughshod over the desires and needs of the citizenry?

BUT... Obama is not doing all this by himself. He has the full cooperation of the Democratically-controlled House and Senate, so let's get rid of them all! Eleven months from now the majority of the House and 35 Senators will be up for re-election. That will be the time for them to experience the quiet wrath of the American people... in the voting booth!

Are You Ready For The GLOBAL ONE-WORLD CURRENCY?

In late March 2009 US Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner confessed that he had not read the plans by China's central bank governor for a "super-sovereign reserve currency" run by the International Monetary Fund, but nevertheless let slip that Washington was "open" to the idea. China's suggestion – backed by Russia, Brazil, and India, is clearly aimed at breaking US dollar hegemony.

In July of this year, at the G8 Summit in Italy, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev illustrated his call for a supranational currency to replace the dollar by pulling from his pocket a sample coin of a “united future world currency.”

The coin, which bears the words “unity in diversity,” was minted in Belgium and presented to the heads of G-8 delegations, Medvedev said.

In early September of this year the U.N. said the U.S. dollar should be replaced with a global currency.

In mid-November, the head of the International Monetary Fund proclaimed, "The imperative of greater global currency stability means the world can no longer rely, as it has done since the end of the gold standard, on a currency issued by a single country."

Is this the first step toward the long-rumored One World Government? The New World Order? Will you not be able to buy or sell without it... could it be "the mark of the beast"? It appears that most of the world is aligned to accept this global currency, and at first glance it may be appealing, but... if it is controlled by the International Monetary Fund, the whoever controls the IMF controls currency of the world, and by logical extension controls THE WORLD! How's that grab ya, Bubba? There will be no more sovereign nations, no more Constitution, no more freedoms - other than those permitted by Big Brother. True freedom needs no permission! Yet there are those among us who will welcome their enslavement - as long as Big Brother puts beans on their table. And I will tread upon their decaying bodies as I march/walk/crawl to engage those who would dare to attempt to rule free men! Live free or die is more than just an idea - it's an ideal, a credo and a value.

WAKE UP AMERICA!!

Things Are Being Put into Place - VERY DISTURBING THINGS!

Some of the things that are now coming together are probably "just coincidence", but when viewed as a total package they present a very disturbing picture for Americans. The most recent of these is the adoption of a shoulder patch for American soldiers of the United States Northern Command's U.S. 5th Army.

You may be wondering how a soldier's shoulder insignia can be "disturbing". This may, in fact, be one of those coincidences I mentioned above, but...
1. The patch background shows continental North America. For those of you who may have forgotten your grade school geography, continental North America consists of Canada, the U.S. and Mexico. Superimposed in the foreground of the patch is the U.S. eagle. The colors of the patch (and this may be where coincidence comes into play, since there are only so many colors in the spectrum) are orange and blue - the colors of the United Nations. The U.S. eagle covers the entire continent of North America. The subtle implication that one might glean from this is that the U.S. 5th Army - if not all of NorthCom - is expected to fall under the auspices of the United Nations. This, of course, would be in violation of the Constitution, the military Oath of Enlistment, and all that is right! Let's wait and see, shall we?
2. The charter of NorthCom is to provide "domestic protection". That sounds fairly innocuous if you don't question the phrase. Protecting our people is a good thing, right? But, protecting the government from its people is not a good thing. A government in fear of its people must have some justification for that fear, such as defying the desires of those people. Look at the laundry list of policies our government is trying to force upon "We the People" when we have indicated that we do not wish to have those policies made into laws:
a. Legalizing all illegal immigrants currently in our country. On top of that, allowing "chain migration" of their extended family after they are legalized! UNSUSTAINABLE
b. Government controlled health care, that "We the People" do not want, with fines and prison sentences given to those who choose to opt out. UNSUSTAINABLE
c. "Special Protections" under the law for certain activist groups, which now includes homosexuals and pedophiles. UNCONSTITUTIONAL
d. Indecisiveness from the "Commander in Chief" in the pursuit of the terrorists in Afghanistan. Apparently Obama thinks he can vote "present" from the White House just as cavalierly as he did in the Senate without being questioned. Field commanders told him what they needed to succeed, and approximately two months later, he gave them half of that personnel requirement. UNSUSTAINABLE AND UNCONSCIONABLE - at the unnecessary cost of many more American lives!
e. "Same sex marriage" - that should happen when the partners of a same sex relationship can procreate within that relationship. UNBELIEVABLE

The list goes on and on - government pork, government bailouts, government takeovers, government perks, government intrusion, etc. I perceive much of this to be government misdirection. Distractions designed to keep the concerns of Americans focused on the minutia - while the hidden agenda remains unnoticed.

3. The integration of the U.S. with Canada and Mexico, long deemed by many as little more than a fanciful "conspiracy theory," actually was an idea promoted by the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and sold to President Bush (41) as a means of increasing commerce and business interest throughout North America. In 1987 the US and Canada signed the Canada-US Free Trade Agreement (FTA), ostensibly to stimulate commerce between the two sovereign nations. Feeling left out, Mexico pressed for a similar arrangement, and in 1994 the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which superseded the Canada-US treaty, was signed by representatives of the three parties concerned.Lurking in the wings is yet another "Free Trade Agreement". The United States is negotiating a bilateral and multilateral free trade agreement called the "Free Trade Agreement of the Americas (FTAA) which will include all nations of the western hemisphere - all of North America, all of Central America, and all of South America. When completed, this will make unification of the western hemisphere almost identical to that of the European Union (EU). How far behind can a single currency be - especially considering the current global financial conditions? Chip-chip-chip... but let's wait and see, okay? Personal freedom and national sovereignty aren't that important anyway, are they? The U.N. will take good care of us...

5. A Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) Task Force on the Future of North America issued an executive summary entitled "creating a North American Community" on March 14, 2005 just days prior to the March 23, 2005, trilateral summit at Waco, Texas, in which President George W. Bush, then-Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin and then-Mexican President Vicente Fox declared the SPP on their own authority, without any approval from the U.S. Congress! (Be aware that the CFR is a non-governmental organization [NGO] which is composed of INTERNATIONAL big money, INTERNATIONAL big corporations, INTERNATIONAL big media, and INTERNATIONAL politicians - and that the CFR wields great power in INTERNATIONAL politics)

4. The upcoming "U.N. Climate Control Conference" in Copenhagen Denmark from December 7th - Dec 18th 2009. It's really nothing more than a slightly revamped Kyoto Protocol on Climate Control - with the inclusion of a 2% Global Climate Debt upon industrialized nations as punishment for being successful (this type of insanity is a preview of what life would be like under the thumb of the United Nations). It is also suspected that this conference will provide Obama with the opportunity to surrender our personal freedoms, our national sovereignty and our Constitutional rights to what is essentially a One World government. (Personally, I am not in great fear that such an action will be taken... but, I also stand ready to join the nationwide reaction if such a reprehensible action is taken. My freedom is guaranteed by God almighty, the blood of our founders, and the Constitution of the United States of America. As I served so that others may be free, so shall I serve in protecting the freedoms of myself, my family, and my countrymen!)

"The price of freedom is eternal vigilance."
Thomas Jefferson

"If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a small chance of survival. There may even be a worse case: you may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves."

Sir Winston Churchill

ADOPTING ISOLATIONISM AS AMERICAN POLICY... It's Looking Better Every Day!

The upcoming United Nations Climate Change Conference is to be held in Copenhagen, Denmark, December 7-18, 2009. There have been concerns raised, on my blog as well as elsewhere, that Obama would attend and sign a "Climate Change Treaty" which is purported to hold dire consequences for our nation, including the acceptance of a "Climate Debt", primarily levied upon developed (read: western) nations (all of Europe, Canada, USA, Japan and probably Australia). The disturbing text of the UN draft treaty reads, in part:

"8. Deep cuts [by developed countries] [by all Annex I country Parties] [by all developed countries] in global emissions by Parties in accordance with their historical responsibilities, as well as the principles of equity and common but differentiated responsibilities, and realistic changes in emission patterns [will be] [are urgently] required to prevent dangerous interference with the climate system and achieve the ultimate objective of the Convention. Early and urgent action by all countries on the basis of equity and according to their common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities is necessary. [A] [Further] delay by Parties [in implementing their commitments to reduce] [reducing] emissions will increase their climate debt to the developing countries and significantly constrain opportunities to achieve lower stabilization levels of greenhouse gases (GHGs) and increase the risk of more severe climate change impacts. Avoidance of damage to SIDS and LDCs as a primary benchmark for assessing the adequacy of long-term cooperative action.
9. The shared vision for long-term cooperative action recognizes the strong link between adaptation and mitigation as well as the cross-cutting role played by financing, technology transfer and capacitybuilding. Failure to implement ambitious and immediate mitigation actions by developed countries will increase the need for adaptation in developing countries and therefore for financial support. At the same time, increased financial support and technology transfer to developing countries will help these countries in their implementation of NAMAs, reducing the risk of crossing tipping points that could result in abrupt climate change."

Disregarding the several contextually unrecognized acronyms, and the legalistic wording, the bottom line appears to be that somebody in the UN seems to think that the successful nations of the world should be billed for their successes. That somehow. that success was made possible by the sacrifices of the "3rd world countries", rather than those who - through their own efforts, expense, and ingenuity - created success from ecological chaos. Therefore, the developed nations owe a debt to those who were too lazy to get up and answer the door when opportunity knocked.

EXCUSE ME??

Who put the UN in charge of global debt collection? If they want to start, let them begin by collecting the war debts owed to the United States by most of the developed world! At last count, only Finland and Great Britain had repaid their WWII debt to the USA. The remainder was primarily ignored or even forgiven for political reasons.

The "mainstream media" - almost to a man - publishes articles expressing serious doubts that Obama will attend the Copenhagen Climate Conference. Keep in mind however, that the mainstream media has been in Obama's pocket since he announced his candidacy for the office of President. Another effect of the aforementioned treaty would be to place the United States under a "World Government", International law, and the auspices of the World Court, which would - in any practical sense - be handing over our sovereignty to some third party!

For a change, I actually hope the mainstream left-wing media is correct in their assumptions. Obama may be spineless and incompetent, but he cannot possibly be stupid enough to expect that signing us over to a "World Government" would go unanswered by Americans.

AMERICANS TO BE ENSLAVED TO U.N.? You decide...

The following is a excerpt from a speech recently delivered by Lord Monckton in St. Paul MN, on the subject of Climate Change and the impending U.N. Climate Treaty (the one that says fine the western nations [that's US] for polluting the atmosphere, and then give the money to the poor developing nations - that treaty). This excerpt is less than 5 minutes of a 90 minute speech, but it carries a foreboding message, and is well worth hearing...

Is he telling us the truth, the truth as he interprets it, or just blowing smoke? If he's not just blowing smoke, then we have good cause for concern. Are we about to be sold out by our Nobel Peace Prize winning "President"? Or, is this how he actually plans to earn that Nobel? Will the liberals be successful in repealing the 13th Amendment and reinstating slavery for the masses? The possibilities seem endless.
