Random Thoughts from a Real American

More than forty years after Ted Kennedy waterboarded Mary Jo Kopechne liberals are finally upset at the use of this interrogation tactic.

Obama burned more than 9000 gallons of fuel on Earth Day.

California is thinking of convening a Constitutional Convention to alter the framework of that state…in no particular order the Amendments will call for legalizing illegal aliens, banning free speech, prohibiting the use of guns by any non felon, outlawing marriage between a man and woman, banning fireplaces, grilles and campfires and expressly prohibiting the use of private schools or any establishment of religion.  

Liberals have sunk to a new low with their seeking to prosecute former administration officials for using “harsh” interrogation tactics to keep our nation safe.   Never mind there hasn’t been another terrorist attack on our homeland since 9/11.   Remember, with them it’s all about putting ideology over national security.   Now that the terrorists know we won’t lay a hand on them one can only imagine the mayhem they are conjuring up in their caves.

Have you taken the time to ask your liberal friends why they hate our country so much?

Down under, the prime minister is suggesting that Australia is a Christian nation where terrorists aren’t welcome.   Don’t fret, Obama has already rolled the welcome mat out here.   I’m sure he’ll even throw in a Koran or two. 

In a poll by Real Clear Politics, VP Joe Biden is less popular than former VP Dick Cheney.   Betcha don’t hear about that on the evening news.   But all is not lost as the young, the dumb and the uninformed still support the Messiah. He even has support of 24% of Republicans, showing that idiocy transcends  party lines. 

GE shareholders are outraged at the bias shown by subsidiary MSNBC.   I don’t know why they’d care as nobody even watches the network that is perennially  in the basement of cable news ratings largely as a result of their anti-American left wing bias. 

Why is it that Fox News continually wins the cable news ratings? For those of you educated by the government, that was a rhetorical question. 

Now that tax day has come and gone does anyone know if Timothy Geithner paid his taxes?

Obama is scheduling yet another prime time news conference.   I wonder if he is going to apologize for all the apologies he has given on behalf of America?

Yes, we can sum up his first 100 days in four words, well it’s four without the expletives; complete and utter failure. This guy isn’t fit to be a Wal-Mart greeter let alone let alone leader of the once free world.

Why Liberals Hate the Patriotic Tea Parties

 

Senior White House Advisor David Axelrod said yesterday that the tea party movement is unhealthy, while fellow liberal James Carville called it damaging to Republicans.   They expressed confusion of their misguided notion that 95% of Americans just received a tax cut.

Perhaps I can help set the record straight.   First, the tea party movement is not only healthy but it is a necessity in a day and age when government seeks to usurp more of our liberties and rights.   Denouncing the tea party movement shows the true disdain liberals have for freedom of speech and expression. Just as the tea party was needed in the years preceeding the Revolution, it is needed now, for now, like then, we are facing taxation without representation. 

Sure, we may have representatives in Washington but do they represent us. Does spending money on studying pig flatulence and building bridges to nowhere reflect good stewardship of the money they steal out of our paychecks each week? The answer is no.   Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid represent a growing underclass of unproductive citizens that are needed for votes; nothing more, nothing less. 

The political class in Washington is what is fueling the fires in the tea party movement.   The blatant disregard for the will of the taxpaying public is why thousands showed up in protest.   The liberal politicians hatred of you and I is precisely why Governor Rick Perry suggested that Texas may secede.  

While secession may not be the answer now, it is certainly an option that all states should keep on the table if America ceases to be America.   If capitalism is replaced with socialism and freedom replaced with censorship, such as the bans on free speech and guns proposed by liberals, then alternative means to overcoming such un-American behavior must be examined.  

Face it, our nation would be better off without places like Seattle or San Francisco.   For the most part, the population east of the Hudson and West of the Sierras is why we are in the mess we are in today. Without the votes from those regions there would be no B. Hussein Obama in the White House and Congress would be overwhelmingly dominated by conservatives who reflect real American values. 

Ridiculous ideas such as gay marriage, appeasement of terrorists or the welcoming of illegal criminals would be met with looks of scorn, as they should be.   Coddling criminals and marching with NAMBLA would likely net someone a jail sentence themselves.  

As for the liberal claim that Americans should be happy because 95% of us just got a tax cut; they can take their $8 dollar check and put it you know where.   Less than 50% of Americans pay any tax at all, so the money the unproductive get isn’t a tax cut but rather a welfare check.   As for the rest of us, this pittance won’t pay the mortgage, won’t pay the tuition, won’t pay the car payment or anything else for that matter.   This gesture by liberals is a slap in the face of anyone with an IQ over 80.   You know, the folks who didn’t vote for Obama.   The tea parties are a reflection of our pent up anger of a nation being hijacked by those who loathe everything that made our nation great and they will stop at nothing to destroy it, unless we stop them first.

Guns 'N God

 

Guns 'N God

I am beginning to think that it will take B. Hussein Obama personally flying a jet into a tall building before Americans truly understand how dangerous this terrorist sympathizing socialist really is. Equally as dangerous are the sheep who actually drink his kool aid about “hope” and “change”. I guess if his entire following consisted of DMV employees and housing project residents it would be somewhat understandable, but sadly that is not the case.

Most recently he said of his inability to garner support from the white working class, “It's not surprising, then, they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.” Like a typical elitist liberal, this guy is once again showing his complete lack of understanding of the plight of Real Americans or the devastating impact his Marxist ideology would have upon our society.

Obama clearly fails to realize that the reason Americans cling to their guns is out of fear of government, as this will provide the last line of defense as government seeks to silence the masses while stealing more of our property to redistribute to the entitlement class. He clearly lacks the intellectual wherewithal to realize that gun ownership is largely the result of increasing crime against law abiding citizens by the criminal class who are coddled and emboldened by liberals.

When it comes to religion, Obama has about as much credibility as Teddy Kennedy at an AA meeting. We have witnessed his pastor's incendiary hate filled rhetoric and the black liberation theology to which Obama seemingly prescribes.

As for people who aren't like us, who is; unless you so happen to have an identical twin. Like most liberals, Obama would like the public to believe that all whites are anti-immigrant while failing to realize that all whites in this nation are descendant's of immigrants. Hey dummy, it's not the immigrants that we are against, it's the illegal aliens who broke the laws to get here and then refuse to speak our language or assimilate to our culture.

To put it mildly, B. Hussein Obama poses no less of a danger to our nation than the Islamic fascists who seek enjoyment as they hack off the heads of infidels while extolling the virtues of some bastardized version of the so call religion of peace. He poses no less of a danger than the millions of illegals who come into our nation every year and then murder, rape and rob hard working Americans. He poses no less of a danger than the pedophile down the street, the rapist laying in wait or the street gang who kill kids on the playground in a drive by gone amiss. Simply put, he is the danger, as he and his ilk enable and encourage all of the aforementioned atrocities commited by those who seek to bring harm to our nation, our freedom and our way of life. If you don't yet understand this, then you too are part of the problem.

There is certainly more to come out on Obama, but understand that the mainstream media will put a muzzle on anything they can. How many Americans realize that Obama is friendly with domestic terrorist William Ayers, who wrought havoc across America as his Weather Underground blew up numerous government buildings and said, “Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution, kill your parents, that's where it's really at.”

If there were a connection between John McCain and this terrorist, it would be a front page headline and McCain would have already withdrawn from the race. But it's not, it's a connection between Obama and a homegrown terrorist of the same mold as Tim McVeigh. Perhaps its time that we all work to educate our family, friends and neighbors about the real B. Hussein Obama before it is too late and the only thing that will save us will be our guns and our God.

Government Makes Obscene Profits on Gas

 

Government Makes Obscene Profits on Gasoline

I just returned from Los Angeles where gasoline is routinely $4.00 dollars a gallon. Of course, this is rather expensive, although when adjusted for inflation is not the most expensive gas in history which occurred during the Jimmy Carter debacle. Yes, another factoid that liberals don't want to share with the dumb and the uninformed.

Did you know that the government profit on a gallon of gas in Los Angeles is $.71 cents? Yes, for doing absolutely nothing but sitting on their unaccountable asses, the federal, state and local governments get immense profits to waste on worthless government programs. I find it amazing that the government has the nerve to chastise Big Oil who nets a profit of only $.09 cents a gallon, much of which is reinvested into oil exploration.

In yet another inconvenient truth, it turns out that the government makes a profit that is nearly 8 times greater than the companies that actually bring the oil to our local filling stations. Perhaps it is time for government to look at their own obscene profits and understand that we could have an immediate reduction in gasoline prices if they would reduce, or better yet eliminate, fuel taxes.

As prices continue to rise in other consumer goods, one has to wonder how much of an impact the gas price is playing. Certainly it is costing more to transport goods and to provide services. This is largely the result of rising fuel costs. If the government ceased their practice of stealing an amount equal to nearly 20% of a gallon of gas, wouldn't it make sense that other consumer goods would fall by a similar amount? Perhaps rather than blaming Big Oil for this problem they should take a long hard look in the mirror as once again government is proving to be the majority of the problem.

Then again, this is nothing new. Government is an inherently inept bureaucracy filled with unaccountable employees who could never find a job in the private sector. If you don't believe, take a drive down to your local DMV or drive through a neighborhood government housing project and consider that this is exactly what our healthcare system will look like if we ever enact socialized medicine.

Yes, government is a disaster of epic proportions, especially at the federal level. Perhaps it is time to ask how many government employees we could do without? Is it 20%, 30%, 50% of the workforce? Aside from the military, is there really any need for any federal government? We have wasteful bureaucracies ranging from the Department of Health and Human Services to the Department of Education. We have an unaccountable postal service that would be more efficient and effective if it were outsourced to the private sector. In all, we have over 44,000 federal programs that are basically nothing more than a waste of everyone's time and money and in reality benefit only a very few constituents that comprise the voting base of the moveon.org Democrat Party.

Ah-ha, now we are onto something. Democrat Party, voting base, constituents and entitlements. Gee, imagine that; an entire federal government that has been designed to buy votes from the nanny state entitlement class. Once again, the truth has been revealed and at its rotten core lies yet more of the liberal agenda that seeks to do nothing but steal more of what is ours and give it to those who are too damn lazy to get a job. So the next time B. Hussein Obama rambles on about change, give some consideration to the type of change he is talking about as it undoubtedly means stealing more from us to give to his nanny state constituents.
