Down on the farm, growing votes…

Recently Rep. Joe Walsh (R-Ill) pointed our some simple truths at a Town Hall meeting about how the democrats want to keep blacks and Hispanics dependent on government and toeing the party line. He also called out Jessie Jackson by name saying that “Jesse Jackson would be out of work if (blacks) weren’t dependent on government.”

He also re-enforced that the next day by saying Jackson was in effect trying to keep blacks, “down on some plantation.” By keeping them dependant on the government dole. Democrats cried foul and, as they typically do, called Walsh racist for saying it.

Truth hurts. Walsh is spot on. Racism is an industry and a vital part of the democrat platform.

 It should be noted that it was a republican that sent troops to Little Rock. It was republican support that passed the Civil Rights Act. It was a republican president (Reagan) that ushered in an economy that moved more blacks out of poverty either before or since. It was a republican President that expanded the Civil Rights Act to cover ALL of America. It was a republican president that put blacks into higher positions in the administration than ever (Sec of State, Sec of Defense).

It was the DEMOCRATS that attacked and tried to block a black nominee for the Supreme Court. It was DEMOCRATS that used the term “House Ni**er” in reference to black conservatives and it’s the democrats that quickly criticize blacks when they become successful.

It’s been republican policy that has created jobs for the people, while democrat policies are for the large part job killers – especially for minorities and low income groups. Go ahead – try to tell me that raising energy prices is sound policy where blacks, Hispanics, or any other minority is concerned. Yet it’s a part of the democrats platform.

 It was a republican President that brought The No Child Left Behind Act, which was designed to lift the educational level of black children in America up to equal levels, and the democrats fought it tooth and nail, and in the end refused to fund vital parts of it – why? The democrats depend on keeping blacks under educated and under control, that’s why.

The democrats love to point out that there are more whites on welfare and foodstamps than blacks. Yes, of course there are more whites on welfare and food stamps than blacks BECAUSE THERE ARE MORE WHITE PEOPLE. But there are far more blacks on welfare than whites by percentage, and that’s what counts in that statement.

Telling people that there are “more whites on welfare and foodstamp’s” is just misdirection, and covering up a problem that needs correcting. Toeing the democrats party line does NOTHING for blacks or Hispanics but give them more of the same ol same ol. And every time a republican points it out the cries of racism go flying.

Real racism is saying that welfare and foodstamps are ‘good enough’ for black people. Real racism is not worrying about providing jobs for the poor, only how much rich pay in taxes. Real racism is saying blacks aren’t capable of acquiring an ID to vote. Real racism is saying a black person can’t make up his own mind about the world around him, only the government can. As long as that government is in the hands of the democrats that is.

They call republicans bigots for wanting job creation instead of welfare programs. They call them bigots for thinking a paycheck is a better alternative than foodstamps. They call them bigots for wanting to pull poor people up, instead of knocking “rich” people down.

Democrats seem to think that corporations and jobs are somehow unrelated, and that taxes somehow don’t get passed on down to consumers. They seem to think that “taxing the rich” will somehow benefit the poor, when in reality those taxes take money out of everybody’s pockets in the form of higher costs, fewer jobs, and less growth in the marketplace. And it’s that growth in the marketplace that really brings money into our nations treasury. It’s growth in the marketplace that puts money in peoples pocket and food on their table. Everything else is smoke and mirrors.

See, bigoted men really are incapable of comprehending reality today. They’d rather keep you with a hand out in need, down on the plantation, where they can count on your support. They somehow think they are doing you a favor. Thankfully nowadays, more and more people are finding out who the real bigots are.

Say what? (again…)

I read earlier that Obama has a campaign ad out that warns us about a return to things as they were under George Bush.

Don’t return to Bush?

Under Bush, for the vast majority of his time as President, we had record low unemployment (around 5%), low gas prices (under $2), a soaring stock market, and booming growth in both real wages and GDP. All this EVEN with 9-11, which for a period of time crashed the markets and should by all rights have sent us into a long lasting deep economic depression, the resulting war on terrorism with those extreme costs in both war and the Billions upon Billions poured into Homeland Security, and TWO major hurricanes – Katrina and Rita. It wasn’t until the democrats pet housing fiasco which crashed the housing market (which Bush had warned us over and over and over was coming) did the economy go bad.

Under Obama it has only gotten worse, and any positive change has come from the natural rebound of the business community fixing themselves. Obama (and the democrats back during Bush’s final few months) poured massive amounts of money onto the problem with little results to show besides massive waste and fraud.

This President has done nothing to really fix any of our problems. Nothing to really fight high unemployment. Nothing to bring down the high costs of energy. Nothing at all to bring about any rebound in the marketplace.

Sure, he’s promised us the moon (and promised high taxes to pay for it), but as far a real solutions – nothing. Even some of his very own supporters are now questioning some of his programs and having second thoughts about the costs. Obama’s still living on dreams and wishes, and what he’s delivered hasn’t smelled nearly as rosy as what we were lead to believe.

Even today the best he’s got is to still try to pin our problems on Bush. We should only be so lucky as to get back economically to where we were under Bush!

Say what?

Joe Biden said the other day that Romney’s foreign policy would take America in the wrong direction, back to where we were a few years ago.

Joe Biden has lost his mind.

If anyone has taken America into a dangerous place with their foreign policy it’s this administration. Cowering and burying your head in the sand isn’t a sound policy, and faint hearted reactions to acts against us like what occurred on Clinton’s watch only leads to more attacks against us.

Bowing to foreign leaders and begging petty tyrants to act nice, this administrations foreign policy it would seem, has caused America to appear weak and lose the trust of our allies. Talk about going back to the future, the Obama Administration has almost got us back to where we were in 1999. No, on second thought, you can’t even compare this where we were then as a nation.

Fools and their stories…

I don’t abide fools easily, and I literally HATE un-American anti-American un-informed Americans. The bitch and moan about “freedom” and the “Constitution” and then attack everything ever done to provide them that freedom and protect that Constitution. I wish they’d move somewhere else and quit contaminating the air here. They are full of hate and readily accept any BS that any idiot can make up and present as facts. They live with their heads in the sand, yet jump on any and every conspiracy theory and take any criticism of our country as gospel fact, no matter how farfetched. Then if you don’t accept their BS, or if you repudiate what they say with fact, they claim you’ve fallen victim to some ‘Zionist’ new world order sinister plot to take over the world. All they are is stupid, weak minded, anti-semitic, haters that want to find blame for their own shortcomings by disparaging others. They skirt around on the periphery of the issues, relying on each other for self reaffirmation. Their logic is tattered and frayed, which is another reason they are called ‘the fringe‘. They are irrelevant politically but act a if they are of some omni-importance to our country, all the while never lifting a finger to help it, only tearing it down. They find it sooo terrible here. LEAVE. Get out. We don’t need them here, and they act as if they don’t like it here, so go. I’d suggest Canada, but they wouldn’t like it there either. Besides, Canada has enough problems already.

Playing ‘The Game’

Sadly, playing politics is the number one concern of the current administration. Killing the Keystone XL is just a part of the game. The stated goal of this administration is to force change away from fossil fuels and this is just another part in that endeavor, nothing more. Chu has repeatedly stated he’d like to see gasoline at the European average, which is $9 to $11 dollars per gallon. How many working class folks, many of whom depend on their own transportation to and from work, can pay that? Everything in this country depends on transportation in one form or another, so you are talking an extreme rise in the direct cost of goods with this policy. They DON’T CARE. You and I, the masses that make up this country, don’t matter. What matters to them is some environmental theory of making the world a better place through restricting mans impact on the environment. How that impacts you is of no concern to them. Neither is the cost… which is why they view spending $375,000 in government tax dollars each on a $40,000 sticker priced Chevy Volt a winning deal.

Myth vs Science

Someone recently wrote that they prefer rational science to myth as far as an explanation of our natural world. Well, I’m not all about debunking science or any such thing, but it’s also been recently said that mankind’s total of knowledge about the world around him has doubled in the last fifty years AND will double again over the next fifty. Now looking back over the course of history there are a lot of things that we once took as “scientific” fact that just wasn’t so.

 Myth has a better track record than science as far as history is concerned. Many a scientific discovery came from exploring myths. Myths might not be rock solid truths, but for the most part they are grounded in some fact. Legends and myths come out of our worlds oral history, passed thru the generations over eons of time.

We know little of what there is to learn, and in the future people will look back on the science of today much like we look back on the science of yesterday. Besides, what exactly is rational with the thought that out of nothing something appeared, and then for no reason it changed and became something else, then changed again, then again, then again and eventually became a rock… then a tree… then…me?

Look at a flower and tell me how it got brewed out of that primordial stew. Why are things so limited, yet so advanced at the same time? How come, after all the years and years and years of change do to the various influences of the world around us we can’t hold a conversation with something that isn’t of our species? How come we could develop something like a thumb, but not wings… even bugs have wings…? Wouldn’t wings have been extremely advantageous to travel, to escape danger, to search for food and shelter?

Why, again, are there the limits? After coming so far, why aren’t we more advanced than this… if those theories are correct? If the little things can be so complex, why not the big things, too? Seriously, look at what it takes to reproduce. What it takes to feel, take in oxygen, digest food for nourishment… all complex systems. Yet, after producing all those abilities we can’t function but in a very tiny band of the environment. After all this time we should be able to do almost anything, survive almost anywhere, be… optimum.

Is it not true that evolution is just as much a story of loss as it is gain? What rational explanation is there for having such basic needs as food and water when evolution can take care of everything else that gets us to here? Why don’t we just absorb what we need or synthesize it out of sunlight?

Why are things so universally common among such vastly different species? Perhaps it because we have something in common after all… and perhaps that would be a creator.

Now, I’m not against ‘evolution’, for certainly things change, or evolve over time. There isn’t any fundamental religious dispute to that notion anyway. Creation of the Heavens and Earth caused a mighty big BANG I’m fairly sure. But science requires a “rational” explanation for everything. Creationist aren’t so limited. We understand that some of this is above our pay grade. But you scientists keep on working, now. You’ve got some pretty good God given talent, I’m sure.

A Proclamation…

BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA – A PROCLAMATION

Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor – and Whereas both Houses of Congress have by their joint Committee requested me “to recommend to the People of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.”

Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next to be devoted by the People of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be – That we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks – for His kind care and protection of the People of this country previous to their becoming a Nation – for the signal and manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of His providence, which we experienced in the course and conclusion of the late war –for the great degree of tranquillity, union, and plenty, which we have since enjoyed – for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national One now lately instituted, for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general for all the great and various favors which He hath been pleased to confer upon us.

And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech Him to pardon our national and other transgressions – to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually – to render our national government a blessing to all the People, by constantly being a government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed – to protect and guide all Sovereigns and Nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us) and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord – To promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and Us – and generally to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as He alone knows to be best.

Given under my hand at the City of New York the third day of October in the year of our Lord 1789.

GO. WASHINGTON.
