New way for the blog to go

So it has been a while for us to use the blog, I have so many things I have my fingers in these days.
Politics
Military
Freebie stuff
Saving the earth
Saving America
It seems so much is going on these days, makes your head spin with all the information being thrown at you so quickly. 
How the heck do you process all that is going on in the world. 
We are so connected, we know just a few clicks hit a translate button and you can read what is going on in japan, Australia, Middle East, anywhere you desire to go. You can go in a few seconds and see it all.
Information overload, and with so many people blogging these days, and then they put there twist on it. Give it from there view point. Well then you have to take that into consideration also. 
So for now, I will use the blog once again, but not just about politics, I think it is time to diversify!

FOXNews.com - Top Justice Dept. Official Lied Under Oath About Dismissal of New Black Panther Case, Ex-DOJ Lawyer Says

FOXNews.com - Top Justice Dept. Official Lied Under Oath About Dismissal of New Black Panther Case, Ex-DOJ Lawyer Says: "The Obama administration won a default judgment in federal court in April 2009 when the Black Panthers didn't appear in court to fight the charges. But the administration moved to dismiss the charges in May 2009. Justice attorneys said a criminal complaint against one of the Panthers, which resulted in the injunction, proceeded successfully."

This and everything else that Obama and his thugs have there fingers in. If they would just focus on one thing at a time, maybe this country would stand a chance, but I just do not see that happening. Obama is a thug and so is most of his administration, and they know it.
932 more days and he will be out of the White house, and hopefully we can pick up the pieces and fix this crap he and his thugs have destroyed

Amputate or Die" An excellent column from Jack Wheeler

Please take the time to read this article Via Melissa Jenkins "Amputate or Die"
An excellent column from Jack Wheeler

It was a sobering dinner party last night (6/16). Hosted by a London
billionaire in his exquisite home - a Boccaccio hung on the wall behind
me - the wine flowed liberally, but the conversation among the ten of us
was stone-cold serious.

There were lighter moments, as when I proposed a toast to "a great hero
of Europe - Geert Wilders." Every one raised their glass in a smile, but
the biggest smile was that of a spectacularly gorgeous super-model
(you've seen her in many a high-fashion ad). She was from Holland.

Then a well-known Hollywood producer raised his glass to toast his hero -
Ronald Reagan. "We need him again," he commented. I guarantee you've
watched one of his TV shows.

But when a self-made billionaire with an 11-figure private equity fund
and a clear grasp of Austrian economics starts to talk about America's
prospects, you listen. So we all listened.

Being in London, he started there. "To call (new Brit PM David) Cameron a
disaster is like calling Hurricane Katrina a squall. He's as much a
Conservative as I am a Moslem. I have already started preparing to
relocate to Switzerland. If he succeeds in his current push to raise
capital gains taxes from 18% to 50% -- and it looks like he will - the
British economy and the London real estate market will crash. The best
play around will be to short the pound.

"In short, Cameron and Osborne (George Osborne, David Cameron's Oxford
classmate and now in Cameron's cabinet as Chancellor of the Exchequer,
equivalent to our Treasury Secretary) lead secret lives. Just as they
hide from the public that they are homosexual behind the pretense of a
marriage, they hide their liberal agenda behind the pretense of being
conservative. They will destroy Britain's economy just as sure as Obama
is destroying America's."

There followed a spirited exchange about financial escape hatches -- if
the euro, the pound, and the dollar fall off their respective cliffs,
where does anybody go? The time-worn adage of "buy gold, buy silver, buy
Swiss Francs" may work for individuals, but world equity markets are in
a trap from which there is no clear exit.

One opinion was, "The best run governments around today are those of
Canada and Singapore - having one's savings denominated in their
currencies is not a bad idea." Then we got back to America.

"You know what my biggest fear is?" our host asked. "It's not really
Obama, for what he's done is to accelerate what the liberals have been
slowly doing for decades - so quickly that their socialism is obvious to
everyone. Which means the solution is obvious to everyone. My biggest
fear is that voters will give Republicans the power to repair America on
November 2nd - and the Republicans won't have the courage to do it."

All I could respond with was "Ouch," to shake my head and sigh. I
mentioned an email I just got from a friend of many years in Las Vegas.
He's a very successful banker and businessman who knows everyone in
Republican politics in Nevada - and I had asked his opinion of how
Sharron Angle might possibly beat Harry Reid. The reply I got back
shocked me. He will do nothing to help her, he said, as she is too
"extreme."

Why is she considered extreme? our host asked, not on intimate terms
with Nevada primary elections. Because she wants a government restricted
to constitutional activities, I replied, which means, for example,
eliminating such things as the Department of Education and the
Environmental Protection Agency.

Our host leaned over the table to look at me as if his eyes were lasers.
"Jack, you need to explain something to your friend. You need to
explain something to America and all those Congressmen you know.
Amputate or die. That's the choice America has right now. That's the
choice Republicans will have after November 2nd, because they're the
only surgeons around who can do the surgery."

Everyone was quiet so he continued. "Gangrene will kill you. If you
don't amputate a finger or other limb that's gangrenous, it will spread
bacterially [viaClostridium perfringens], and you will die. Look at
these unconstitutional growths of government on the body public as
gangrenous infections that have to be amputated for the body to continue
living."

He looked around the table at all of us. "You know that I know all the
main players in the world economy. Some are fools who don't know what
they are doing like Strauss-Kahn (Dominque Strauss-Kahn, head of the
IMF, International Monetary Fund), some are not like Trichet
(Jean-Claude Trichet, president of the European Central Bank). America
has no adult on the economy's lever - Geithner is more of a hopeless
disaster than Bush's Paulson was, and Bernanke is worse than Greenspan.

"So I don't know any player whose smarts I really respect who has much
hope for America, who doesn't see an alternative future than the
destruction of America's wealth through hyper-inflation. They think
elephants will fly before Republican elephants will do what is necessary
if the voters give them the power to do it."

He looked at me - so everyone else did. "Are they wrong, Jack?" The
question hung in the air as I felt my face redden.

"Thanks, pal," I responded with a smile to gain a little time. Everyone
did laugh for just a moment, then I had to jump into the waiting
silence. Here's what I said.

"The situation is dire, there is no doubt, the gravest since the Civil
War. The only hope I see is with the anger of the TeaPartyers. That
anger is directed just as much towards Republican cowards as towards
Democrat fascists. We don't have to wait long to see the power of that
anger. Just six days from now (6/22) in South Carolina, Nikki Haley the
TeaPartyer is going to wipe out Gresham Barrett the RINO, even though
the state GOP establishment is doing everything slimy to smear her.

"I think your player-friends have to see things not as Democrat vs.
Republican but as the Court Party - the establishment in power be they
Democrat or GOP - vs. the Country Party, the TeaPartyers who want an end
to all the corruption, Dem or GOP. Your players are part of the Court
Party. The TeaPartyers you might think are like those who led the French
Revolution - but they are like those who led the American Revolution
instead.

"Yes, the TeaPartyers own most of the 300 million guns in America, but
they don't want blood unless there's no choice. Note the ‘unless.'
November 2ndbetter be an honest election. What the TeaPartyers must
grasp is Churchill's call after the battle of El Alamein [November
1942], that November is only ‘the end of the beginning.'

"So you are right - the only hope is radical surgery to cut out all the
metastasizing cancer, to amputate unconstitutional gangrene, or another
metaphor, to be like Alexander and cut the Gordian Knot with a
swordstroke.

"But the question really is not whether Republicans have the courage to
perform the surgery, to defund ObamaCare, to defund the entire Obama
agenda, to defund entire agencies like the Department of Education,
Energy, and the EPA. It is whether the TeaPartyers have the courage and
capacity to force the Republicans to. I mean, how is eliminating the EPA
extreme, and EPA unconstitutional fascism not extreme? We'll find out,
because they are America's only hope now."

Everyone waited for our host's response. "And the hyper-inflation? The
debt's already baked in the cake, no matter what future spending is
cut."

"Hyper-inflation is only another word for total default. The only way to
avoid it is a government default on its debts only. Then we can switch
from a worthless fiat currency to an asset-backed currency." I smiled.
"Gold brings freedom."

He smiled in return and raised his glass. "We can all drink to that. To
gold, to freedom, and these TeaPartyers - may Jack be right about them.
May they amputate fascism before the fascists amputate our freedom."

FOXNews.com - Kyl: Obama Won't Secure Border Until Lawmakers Move on Immigration Package
I truly believe that Obama said this, and boy I bet he is pissed off now, because Kyl spoke the truth.

Points to Ponder

Here's something to ponder as Obama gives his first Oval Office address. Subject: Gulf Oil Disaster.
Keep in mind he has been scolding Americans all along for their oil-dependent lifestyles and will use this crisis to pass cap & trade - wait for $9 a gallon cuz it's coming. Read this BEFORE the commie hits the airwaves tonight. Oh, by the way, ONLY the Wall Street Journal carried this story today.....

Today, even though President Obama is against off shore drilling for our country, he signed an executive order to loan 2 Billion of our taxpayers dollars to a Brazilian Oil Exploration Company (which is the 8th largest company in the entire world) to drill for oil off the coast of Brazil ! The oil that comes from this operation is for the sole purpose and use of
China and NOT THE USA! Now here's the real clincher...the Chinese government is under contract to purchase all the oil that this oil field will produce, which is hundreds of millions of barrels of oil"..

We have absolutely no gain from this transaction whatsoever!

Wait, it gets more interesting.

Guess who is the largest individual stockholder of this Brazilian Oil Company and who would benefit most from this? It is American BILLIONAIRE, George Soros, who was one of President Obama's most generous financial supporter during his campaign.

If you are able to connect the dots and follow the money, you are probably as upset as I am. Not a word of this transaction was broadcast on any of the other news networks - just the evil FOX News!

Democrats continue hammering GOP over Barton apology to BP - CNN.com

Truly this is crazy, last week a democrat grabs a kid, a young reporter if you will, and demands to know who he is and what he is doing, smacks the camera, and then tussles with the young man, trying
to put him in some sort of a head lock, he says sorry and the dems life moves on. A repub, makes a remark and they (dems) want a public lynching.
If the commander in chief had been more aggressive with trying to stop the oil from spilling uncontrollably into the Gulf, things like this wouldn't be said. It took Obama 59 days to make an address to the nation, and he really didn't say to much about the oil spill, he pushed his own agenda, the cap and trade bull hockie. If that bill is to pass, our electric bills will triple if not more, gas prices will hit 7 bucks a gallon. Obama isn't an American, he is a muslin wearing a suit, trying to take this country down.

Another Gulf oil spill: Well near Deepwater Horizon has leaked since at least April 30 | al.com

Another Gulf oil spill: Well near Deepwater Horizon has leaked since at least April 30 | al.com

Isn't it great that BP told us about this, or were they hoping the American people wouldn't find out.

Boycott BP & all there brands!

Great Editorial and a lot of insight on what the government may try to do....Outlook......Grim...

The Deepwater Horizon explosion that triggered leakage of millions of gallons of crude into the Gulf waters since April 20 has provided President Obama with a timely excuse for advancing the objectives of rent-seeking environmentalists. Instead of focusing on ways to assist the effort to plug the leak, Mr. Obama is taking advantage of the crisis to turn down the oil spigot on projects that are not leaking. This misguided policy is going to cost thousands of jobs and billions of dollars.
Oil may be dirty, but America runs on oil. Curtailing drilling during a depressed economy is only going to stall hope of any recovery, yet Mr. Obama announced on May 27 a six-month moratorium on new deepwater oil drilling permits. He also ordered a halt to all current deepwater drilling operations in the Gulf and reversed his decision of just two months ago to end a decades-old ban on oil and gas drilling along the coasts of the Atlantic states and northern Alaska.
The moratorium does nothing to mitigate the leak while putting out of business the Gulf's 33 other safe deepwater rigs. Such a blunderbuss approach exacts punishment on failure and success alike. The shutdown is costing rig operators an estimated $8 million to $16 million a day, and support service companies stand to lose an additional $1 million daily. Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal said the state will likely lose 20,000 jobs over the next 18 months.
The moratorium is expected to delay the production of 80,000 barrels of crude a day in 2011, a reduction of 4 percent. It is also likely to render seven oil discoveries too expensive to tap and decrease federal tax revenue by $7.6 billion, according to the Louisiana Mid-Continent Oil and Gas Association. Moreover, the loss of domestic oil will force Americans to spend an additional $10 billion overseas to buy imported oil.
While the administration may claim it is exercising an abundance of caution in the wake of the Gulf spill, it is resuming a long-held policy goal of obstructing carbon-based energy. Ken Salazar kicked off his tenure as interior secretary by freezing offshore drilling permits issued by the Bush administration. He also voided several permits for land-based drilling in Utah. Interior officials are quietly pondering a plan to grab 10 million acres stretching from Montana to New Mexico under the 1906 Antiquities Act in a move designed to further restrict drilling activities in the nation's energy-rich West. There's little doubt that the administration will use the Gulf spill to add momentum to the Kerry-Lieberman "cap and trade" bill, which imposes fees on carbon use and would trigger price hikes on many energy products and consumer goods.
Taken as a whole, these acts demonstrate a marked anti-oil bias. While the O Force capitalizes on the Gulf calamity, the majority of hardworking Americans want to see the Gulf cleaned up and America's oil spigot reopened.

The Boycott of BP & all of there brands

Boycott BP stations until the spill is cleaned up!...FOREVER. BP brands to boycott include Castrol, Arco, Aral, am/pm, Amoco, and Wild Bean Cafe. http://twitter.com/bayoulee. HEY MEDIA WE ARE CALLING FOR A WORLD WIDE BOYCOTT OF BP PRODUCTS AND SERVICES. NOT JUST IN THE USA, 
Ok, so I jump from topic to topic sometimes, but come on now, there is so much crap going on these past few years, and things are well, coming to a head, we might as well get it all out in the open now and get them all resolved. And let's do it the right way, ya know, the way OUR founding fathers intended. 
You know, I do not have a problem with people wanting to come to the great country! I really don't, but do it the right way, go through INS, get your documentation in order. We do not need anymore thugs, murderers, drug dealers coming here. Keep that in your country please. I am tired of people coming here and sucking off our tax dollars. I do not think we should have to feed, educate, house, medical care any illegal. You may work here, but you send your money back to your country. You most likely do not get taxed on your underthetable cash either. So, you have taken a job from an American and 2nd you haven't paid taxes, but you will be the 1st in line to get government assistance or go to the hospital and not worry about the bill, because the hospital will write it off as a loss, and yep, we the real Americans have to pay the cost of the right off, such as a $50 tylenol.
Thanks for that!
I wonder if BP understands this also????  Just sayin.....

This is just too funny

We found this over at iowntheworld.com and just could not resist posting it.

What in the world is going on?


What the heck is going on in this country these past few years, our government is Out of Control. They want to spend, spend, spend and just print more money, do they not realize that is not how you get out of a recession, cannot they not look at past administrations and see it did not work for them either. Giving money out to banks, and wall street and who ever else,  To many bonuses does NOT need a bailout, they need to fail and then start all over again. Do they not realize that we are suppose to leave this world a little better than we found it?  What about the children and the grand children,Our children have to pay for our mistakes?, well I shouldn't even say it that way.  The people of this country are hard working, American loving people, who have worked hard for what they have and strive to have in the future, but it seems that the government doesn't see it that way. They want our hard earned money for themselves and there lifestyle.  In future posts, I will share links that I have found on government waste.  We all know it goes on and we see it every day, but it seems to me, a lot of it falls on deaf ears, and people tend to pass the buck, thinking that the next person who sees the waste will somehow take care of it for them. 
It is time to take our country back and bring to back to the way our founding fathers intended. 
The time is now, or we will be going the same road as Greece is going right now, and other European countries. 
It does not take a lot of time, to make a phone call to a local politician to say how you feel, or an email. Heck, your on the computer anyway, paying bills, playing games, learning new programs.  Why not take a few minutes and do something to help save America's future, your future, the future of your children and grand children. 
This is a very scary time for our country and now is the time to act.
