Well Come On All of You Big Strong Men.....

Absolutely unbelievable. Obama has started yet another war in the Middle East. I thought these were the smart people. You know, the ones that would not have started the first two. I mean, at least with Iraq you had a country that was violating, daily, the terms of the war treaty after Kuwait and Afghanistan was the training grounds for 911. But Libya? What in the world are we doing firing million dollar missiles at that country for? There are no lessons learned at all from Iraq?

And it can't be the oil. This President has done everything imaginable to slow down oil in the US.



Obama's own words from 2002:

"Now let me be clear – I suffer no illusions about Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal man. A ruthless man. A man who butchers his own people to secure his own power. He has repeatedly defied UN resolutions, thwarted UN inspection teams, developed chemical and biological weapons, and coveted nuclear capacity.

He’s a bad guy. The world, and the Iraqi people, would be better off without him.

But I also know that Saddam poses no imminent and direct threat to the United States, or to his neighbors, that the Iraqi economy is in shambles, that the Iraqi military a fraction of its former strength, and that in concert with the international community he can be contained until, in the way of all petty dictators, he falls away into the dustbin of history."

What?

A lot of people were against Obama being elected because they believed he has no moral compass at all. At least it's safe to say, we do not have enough information on his background to draw conclusions as to his morality and ideology. And apparently, you cannot even refer to his spoken words for clues!

If you are one of the people that voted for this joker you have to be stunned. I mean I'm stunned and I think this guy can do no right. But an attack on Libya is beyond comprehension.

The only explanation I have is this:

Obama is certainly Eurocentric. His vision for America is to remake us in the image of Socialist Europe. You cannot deny this. And the Europeans are, for some crazy reason, in favor of this debacle. So Obama is going down the road with his European coalition to rid the world of a ruthless dictator. I haven't seen anyone involved even try to guess as to how this will end.

Absolutely amazing.

Week One...Pretty Darn Productive!

I have to admit, this man is way more productive then George Bush ever thought of being. After the largest carbon footprint inauguration in history he started to govern.

Week one he has dismantled the intelligence apparatus necessary to keep America safe in our fight against Muslim extremism.

I guess we gained the respect of terrorists, liberals, and people that live in countries unable to protect themselves.

And, introduced a legislative package, disguised as a financial stimulus plan, that will fund every loony, liberal, socialist, boondoggle idea every dreamed of.

Hey it's probably only going to be a trillion dollars. That's $1,000,000,000,000,000. Gives you the right frame of mind headed into the tax season, right?

And, insured that America will once again fund the abortions of babies overseas.

Thank goodness we have suspended the atrocious practice of splashing water in the face of terrorists and are now returning to things that matter. Like supporting infant killing.

All the while, continuing to drive your 401K and investments into dust. (The forward looking stock market dive bombed).

On the bright side, gold went up $60.00 and ounce and silver went up $0.81 and ounce. Wait a minute, is that a good thing?

I can hardly wait until next week.

Team Obama Hiring Attorneys

The media and the blog world have proclaimed Obama's innocence in the Blagojevich/Chicago corruption scandal. The essence of the story is that Obama's lawyer claims Obama and his staff did nothing wrong. What a shocker, eh? Maybe Blagojevich should just put out an email memo from his attorney saying he did nothing wrong?

Read the report/memo/email here. It is sort of hard to find and you may be disappointed about the information presented. It certainly sounds like it was written by a lawyer as it quite brief. He justifiably seems to be careful not to incriminate Obama and his cronies.

Meanwhile Obama and his future (?) White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel are out of the country and refusing to answer questions. Remember the promise of an open and transparent administration? If you believed that to begin with, have I got a Senate seat in Illinois to sell you.

And, Obama's top aide (Rahm) is busy hiring the best legal advice money can buy because of his entanglement in this corruption. You would think these guys would look to New York for guidance in this mess and give the darn Senate seat to an unqualified Democrat with the proper name.

There is a lot of talk about cleaning up the corruption in the Chicago rat's nest. I guess if all the rat's move to DC that might help Chicago?

The Obama Change

I have to tell you. I don't get it. Certainly this was an election without a choice I could feel really good about, but, voting for Obama is beyond belief. I just do not get it. The clues are everywhere screaming, "Run hard, run fast!!".

Obama's past associations with loads of radical people. The missing gaps in his past history. The media's failure to probe and ask tough question. Heck, the media's cheer leading. The promise of higher taxes. The promise to not drill for oil in America. The Democrat's Party connection to the failure of Freddie and Fannie. Someone please explain why we are not allowed to read his college thesis!! The support of ACORN and their attempt to fix the election. The list goes on and on.

Two events really strike me though and are a certainly a predictor of coming events.

In his first press conference he slams Nancy Reagan. You have to be kidding me. Is Nancy Reagan some kind of threat to him? No. Is he comfortable making partisan attacks? I would say that is a rather obvious yes. In this instance he even invents some wild story about Nancy and seances to fit his slam. Of course he's been getting away with these inventions through the entire election cycle and he got away with this one too. No doubt though, partisan attacks against a former first lady, during a press conferences, truly represents change.

The second event is really troubling. Maybe I'm just sensitive because I live in Ohio, and I am against terrorists. I am speaking of the Democratic Party in Ohio going through the records of Joe Wurzelbacher (Joe the Plumber).

In support of the Obama campaign they participated in the smear by going through all of his state records to try and dig up dirt on Joe. What did Joe do? He wanted to know why working hard is going to be a penalty in the Obama administration and, he had the audacity of hope to put the question directly to Obama.

As if this breach of privacy isn't enough to make you truly angry, you need a little more context. Anyone remember the last 6 years and the outrage over Bush wire tapping the phones of terrorists? Osama has privacy rights, right?

Now we know. Wiretapping the phones of terrorists is bad. Combing the private records of a citizen challenging a presidential candidate is perfectly acceptable.

Fasten your seatbelts folks. It's going to be a bumpy ride.

Rudy Giuliani.....Unacceptable

I've already made up my mind. No way will I ever vote for this guy. Not now, not ever.

Rudy Giuliani is currently leading in the polls, among Republicans, in what appears to be the biggest bunch of misfits ever assembled in history trying to be President of the United States.

This guy is not a Republican. If he is, I'm not a Republican. He's a liberal that was mayor of New York City on 9/11 and somehow this makes him uniquely qualified to be President of the United States. By the way, don't even bother with his website. If you are looking for his position on issues he has a few lines on each that sound so non-committed they could have been written by Bill Clinton. All right lets get down to a few specifics.

1. Gun Control - Rudy was a firm gun control liberal as mayor of New York. He jumped on the band wagon with the Brady Campaign to sue gun makers out of existence. Rudy claimed he supports hunters rights though. That's always the clue to a John Kerry position on gun control which is ban as many as you can and then go duck hunting when you run for office. I have never mistaken the Second Amendment for a declaration of hunters rights and any candidate that does just doesn't get it.

2. Abortion - Rudy is a pro choice Republican. And he's quite confusing on the issue. Again, he borrows a page from the Bill Clinton "speak out of both sides of your mouth" book. From the 2007 debate at the Reagan library:

Q: You became very well known for standing up against the use of public funds for what many people considered indecent exhibits at the Brooklyn museum and places like that. Why do you support the use of public funds for abortion?

A: I don't. I support the Hyde amendment. I hate abortion. I wish people didn't have abortions.

I supported it in New York, but I think, in other places, people can come to a different decision.

If you hate it, why support it?

3. Illegal Immigration - Believe it or not Rudy doesn't even address this critical issue on his website. That alone is quite telling. He doesn't want to tell you where he stands. That means he stands with, you guessed it, the Democrats.

In April 2006, Giuliani went on the record as favoring the US Senate's comprehensive immigration plan which includes a path to citizenship and a guest worker plan. So if you are in favor of an open southern border, any person passing back and forth at any time, the American taxpayer paying their medical, education, and welfare bills while they are here Rudy is your guy.

And here you thought the main reason to vote for him was defense of the United States.

If you can hold your nose enough to look past these positions for long enough to pull the Rudy lever you are a better person then me. What's going to get me enthused about voting is a difference in the candidates, besides their party title.
