Obama -- "Mission Accomplished"

Obamacare comes in a dead last while destroying the well-worn race track along the way. Obama's response from his delusional grand stand? "Mission Accomplished"

• Project destroying cost over-runs
• Failed web site interface
• No government employee support
• Illegal bait and switch product to sales profile
• Claims of lower cost premiums in reality are price doubling increases
• Staggering drain on an already failing economy
• Self-destructing, non-sustainable internal program structure
• American Family disenfranchising medical plans
• Death panels
• Opt-out Obama-friends cronyism

Obama, “Mission accomplished”

We Don’t need Barak Hussein Obama in Order for Democracy to Work | Editorial 2013

“Barrack Hussein Obama can’t make democracy work.”

There are many distracting arguments coming from the left that easily obscure a simple truth that voting Americans need to realize.

Barrack Hussein Obama can’t make democracy work.

He is not fit for the job of leading a democratic republic mostly because he has chosen not to follow this country’s foundation and duly chosen form of government. Whether his actions are deliberate or merely show him to be incompetent is irrelevant in the voting booth. But, it is an issue at large for every citizen that treasures freedom and liberty. And, if we freedom lovers are to take back what is rightfully ours, we'll need to do it without The Press, without some elected officials, and in some extreme cases, without some lawfully elected and appointed judges of The Law.

--The Press and Advertising Dollars

What should be a major news story every night on the evening news is merely BAU, Business As Usual. One would think that the sitting POTUS circumnavigating the rule of law in order to land his agenda squarely in history’s lap might be something to talk about over the anchor desk of ABC, CBS or NBC, but apparently not.

Our resident press corps has chosen to deliberately obfuscate Mr. Obama’s obvious anti American courses of action for whatever reason. But again, the presses’ motivation is less important as what to do about it.

For Mr. Obama’s case, it is obvious that he needs to be removed from office one way or another.

In the case of our non-journalistic journalists, we simply turn them off and put down their writings; which apparently is exactly what America has been doing for almost a decade now.

If you listen to news broadcasts and editorializers who favor the status quo; editorializing masquerading as news journals, one would think that everything is fine; they’re all good, and rich and fat and happy. “Nothing to see here; move along, move along. Ooh, look at that over there…” But the dollars, layoffs and bankruptcies in the News Entertaining Industry say otherwise.

In case you have forgotten, or just didn’t know, all of Newsdome (think “kingdom”) and the TV entertainment empire is funded by advertising. Or, that’s the conventional and sustainable method from days of old—before the super rich Rupert Murdoch and Ted Turner started funding a now failing *oligarchy.

Advertising 101

Remember Soap Operas? They were called that since the 1950s and 1960s origin of the genre’ when  Dial Corporation, Procter & Gamble, Colgate-Palmolive and Lever Brothers, all soap manufacturers, were the major advertisers of daytime “soaps”. Advertising to the millions of stay at home moms who were the main laundry engineers at home was a major boon for soap sellers, advertising execs and TV producing studios all at once.

The marriage of TV dramas, moms and laundry soap was so advantageous because everyone was well served.

• The laundry soap really did make things whiter; mom was happy.
• Moms bought a lot of soap. Advertisers were happy.
• Advertisers proved that they could deliver a gigantuous buying audience to their clients. The soap manufacturers were happy.
• TV studios could crank out easy-to-make dramas based on stories that dragged on into eternity with never a close or The End to worry about; the easiest story to write is the one with no end. One just keeps writing. The plot is no longer important to support a killer ending. The producers were happy.

This happy closed loop of partakers in American enterprise on steroids is a perfect example of synergy; elements together are greater than the sum of their separate parts.

Additionally, the industry added greatly to the new royalty called TV stars whom TV watchers idolized and adhering loyalties were born almost overnight; an unlooked for boon to the creators of day time soaps which drew even larger advertising dollars from the added leverage of viewer and customer loyalty; thus the really big bucks that drove advertising rates into the stratosphere where only the really well funded industries could reach.

Question: So, what happened? Why are ad rates in such severe decline? First of all, it needs to be pointed out that the Entertainment world and the Newsies are inherently related. They are in a marriage from which there is no divorce. They share the same pocketbook of funding and therefore are in it together for better or for worse. Fox’s entertainment programs are concretely tied to their news programs. IT IS ALL ENTERTAINMENT.

This does not mean that one network’s news dept. is just as unreliable as the rest. Each program’s content rests upon its own efficacy. If it’s spouting lies, the viewing public will know; especially if there is a running standard of truth tellers by which the liars can be compared.

The answer: no longer is there a happy circle of well served elements in the closed synergestic loop. The soap still works, but advertising is now well known for embellishing to the point of misrepresentation at the same time that the attached network news journalists are even better known for embellishing to the point of editorializing the daily news. If you look up editorializing in journalism 101 courses, it is the same as a curse word for purists of the truth. One can either journalize the news (report it) or editorialize a story. But never the twain shall meet, nor shall the line be made unclear.

During the heyday of the soaps, CBS’s anchor man, Walter Cronkite was hailed as America’s most trusted voice. Today, these anchor men and women seek not after trust, but back slaps at the Leftist White House cocktail pressers (Press Release, Press Parties, etc).

And also, there is … (wait for it) … the Rush factor. Since the 1988 national syndication of his radio program, Rush Limbaugh’s unabashedly conservative and therefore honest presentation of all things American politic have turned America’s attention from limiting their entertainment digest from purely entertuinamnt programs to news programs while at the same time opening up opportunities for non-broadcast based news programs and entertainment programs to catch the attention of the public via The Internet.

This perfect storm of Rush and The Internet occurring in the same annual hemisphere has put a major dent in advertising. What was once viewed as a vast base of a giant pie referred to as “shares” of a the market, has now caused the creation out of virtually thin air of the massively diluting force of Internet based as well as alternative news programs that have not only reduced advertising rates through dilution, but also pretty much removed the solid meaning of a strong market share scale from which advertising rates used to be figured almost 100%.

Ad rate averages, like real estate, used to never go down. So, to have rates reduced as much as the 13-15% being noticed in print ads alone is definitely market shaking. Advertising rates for news programs dropping through the basement is not being talked about with honesty yet, so that’s one to watch for. But the biggest to watch for in my estimation is the attempt by major news sources like ABC, CBS and NBC to try something new for a change; honesty. At the least they could try separating journalizing from editorializing. It seems to work well for Fox news.

--The Editorial Format

When I was cutting my media teeth at my first gig in TV, I was a floor director and camera operator for the evening news in our home town of Medford, Oregon. I operated on a split shift that required I come in at 7am for the local morning magazine human interests show, produce any commercial spots and public service announcements and additionally, produce the station manager’s editorial for the month, before taking my 3 hour lunch before coming in for the live Evening News with Hank Henry. The General Manager and owner of Channel 10 in Medford was R.J. Johnson. My first exposure to an editorial was from behind Camera One as my boss expounded upon his opinion of important political issues of the day.

The broadcast technicalities that separate the line between an editorial and a news story used to be

glaring in its clarity; today, not so much. Mr. Johnson, General Manager of Channel 10 in Medford Oregon had his editorial teased at the head by a pre-rolled tape announcing the editorial segment, and closed at the tail with a like post-roll. These teaser and closer tapes clearly explained that this segment was an opinion piece, not a news story. So, an editorial used to be a clearly marked section of dialogue that was an opportunity for the chief editor of a newspaper or owner of a TV station or radio station to expose their market to their opinion on matters of weight to the community at large.

Today, apparently all of the editorials are preceded by pre-rolled tape announcing the evening news with Diane Sawyer, Brian Williams or Scott Pelley; and one is left waiting for the evening news to actually follow all of the editorializing. There is little difference between editorializing and journalizing the news these days over at the ABC, CBS and ABC studios. Instead of pointing at the obvious political hey making for the Democratic Party and calling it the shameful acts of dishonest and disreputable editorializing, the press corps count it as a brave and courageous thing to mislead their viewers towards socialism and slavery.

--It's DejaVu all Over Again

So, instead of the Russian/Chinese communism brand of socialism dished out carefully and quietly in the 1950s and 60s, we are being fed Pseudo Sharia Muslim statism openly; our hope and change for the 2000’s.

So, Mr. Clinton couldn’t and Mr. Obama can’t make democracy work in a republic. Fortunately for us, our founding fathers knew that this was a danger; and some even felt it was inevitable. Thus the separated powers profile of our unique three part form of government.

And, if the federal powers are too corrupt, there are the state’s rights powers. And, if even these fail; which also looks inevitable in some states, there is always the posse comitatus of individuals taking back their own piece of turf as they follow The Rule of Law as presented in The U.S. Constitution, against which there is no lawful argument.

At some point, citizens may no longer be defined by how they vote, but by how well they hide their arms and ammunition.

Crude Oil, Gasoline and Politics-- and a Moose | Editorial 2013

Parsing the facts; it's not that complicated

At the bottom of this editorial is an article forwarded to me by my dad. He asked the question, "Should the US be exporting crude oil?"
The issue of exporting crude, and/or refining it for resale and domestic consumption is not unlike talking wholesale and retail.

Art.

Let’s compare the wholesale/retail process using metal products. I can talk about this subject at length and with some authority because I deal in metal products from artists and craftsman locally.

My company, Specialized Media Merchandise buys metal art from two different craftsmen in The Northwest in order to resell it at large. They get the metal for free or cheap because lately the supply of raw metal has increased drastically. Raw materiel is a term that metal workers use to describe both new metal and acquired scrap metal. These together make up the category called raw material for artists and craftsmen.

One of these metal artists looks for cast off scrap compressor and fuel tanks as they are made of both lower grade iron and higher grade stainless steel; his two mediums of choice. He can get the stainless steel tanks for extremely cheap; sometimes free. The pieces he cuts out of them and turns into ornamental art, like a particularly interesting three dimensional shark that is displayed in his shop, (I do not have authority to display a picture of his 3D shark for this article, thus the moose) gets him about $150, which we can sell near the $250 price point.

Retail is all about buying low and selling high. This concept is universal, obviously.

Out of one small scrap tank, he can get two or three of these 3D sharks that hang from people’s decks and back porch eaves. So, the motivation for him is great to acquire and horde raw materials in order to turn them into metal art at hundreds and thousands of percent markup.

Then, one looks at market demand in order to figure market strategy. This artist can sell every single piece that he produces in a matter of days, with people standing in line asking for more. So, market demand is high with no end in site. Therefore, market strategy is simple; produce and sell locally. Do not sell wholesale; sell retail.

Oil.

One barrel of crude oil costs American companies $33.76 to lift out of the ground and put in a barrel ready for shipping and refining. This is figured from 2009 dollars because currently it is very involved to get that figure for today. Many factors that are used to determine cost per barrel change many times a year, so the only stable figures are a few years old, but those proportions don’t change as much as the other end of the money chain; the selling price; so the math is still pretty solid.

The selling price for a barrel of crude yesterday, 10/12/2013 was $102.02 for WTI crude, and $111.28 for Brent crude; an average of $106.65 per barrel.

Cost $33.76
Sell $106.65

That's only the crude, crude figures, (pun intended); we have yet to delve into retail breakdowns that include the multiple pieces of the retail pie that a 42 gallon barrel of crude oil fall into: gasoline, kerosene, diesel, asphalt and chemical reagents used to make plastics and pharmaceuticals (Wiki). That's a $72.89 profit per barrel before it's even broken down into it's various wholesale elements for refining into retail products, which is the real frosting on the cake.

In May of 2013, the volume of oil produced by American companies topped 7 million barrels (wait for it) per day. And, remember that this is not all out production mode. America's "free trade" is severely hampered by politics. But 7,000,000 x $72.89 = $510,230,000 per day, before cracking into usable product.

So, the next step in figuring market strategy is looking at the need factor. The US had over 240 million cars in 2012. That’s more than registered drivers. This figure is fantastic and quite phenomenal. All of those gas tanks need fuel, and we fill them up or drop $20 worth in every week whether we use all of that up or not. And this does not even account for municipal buses and trucks, and commercial trucks and equipment, and trains which more than doubles the number of gas tanks, and the size of those tanks is always much larger than a passenger car or truck.

The National Automobile Dealers Association and the US Dept of statistics has determined that the number of just passenger vehicles alone increases at a rate of up to 5.88% annually; this larger figure was recorded back in 1999, but never falls below 3.69% every year.

"Market strategy is simple; make as much refined fuel for resale at home."

Market strategy is simple; make as much refined fuel for resale at home. Doing this nets the oil refineries the highest profit in the shortest amount of time and is virtually guaranteed into the foreseeable future and most likely beyond. As a matter of fact, realistic published reports that try to predict when the US will run out of oil resources in the ground are all bogus because new giant caches are discovered every year. There is more oil in the ground ready for refining now, than all of the oil ever used to date.

So, why sell wholesale at all? For the answer, one must look outside of the standard wholesale/retail market plan and ask our government that question. The US Government has controlled the acquisition and resale of crude oil from day one. And their control gains purchase every decade. And, every day that the free market is blocked from selling their product costs American citizens millions in lost revenue in the form of jobs and lost US taxes.

Obviously, there is a minute amount (comparatively) of product that must be reserved for the Federal government for tactical and emergency application, but that can be acquired at retail prices. There is no reason for the US government to get a discount on fuel.

It’s political. It’s not complicated like the main stream journalists and leftist politicians would have us believe, but it is definitely political.

A fact about the U.S. "shale oil boom" that would shock most Americans

Thursday, October 10, 2013
From Matt Badiali, editor, S&A Resource Report:Today, I went on Fox Business News to discuss exporting crude oil...

And while I didn't have a chance to fully flesh out my ideas on TV, I would like to make my points with you. Because I do think there is a benefit to not exporting oil and gas today.

The background is simple, in the 1970s, the Arab Oil Embargo scared the U.S. into blocking oil exports. We were running out and the supply was in the hands of our enemies.

Fast forward to today. Oil production is back up to 1992 levels and rising. For some reason, folks are fired up about exporting oil.

This is one of my favorite subjects right now. When there was a big price gap between Brent and WTI crude oil this summer, refiners pulled an end run around oil export rules. They refined the crude just enough to call it "refined product" then put it on ships out of here.

In other words, the law is toothless. I'm all for an open market, so scrap the law. However, I'm not sure exporting crude oil is a good idea. Here's what I mean:

According to the Energy Information Administration (EIA) we export about 3.4 million barrels of refined product per day. That's right… we already export 3.4 million barrels of oil products every day already.

That's up from less than about 1 million barrels per day in 2006. To put that in perspective, our production boom added about 2.4 million barrels per day over that same period. So we are effectively exporting all the new production anyway.

That leads me to three points against exporting crude oil.

1. There is no reason to export crude oil. We already export "refined products" around the world. That's good for our economy. We keep good, high paying refining jobs here in the U.S. We keep the best petroleum engineers here and develop the best engineering programs at U.S. universities.

2. We don't produce all the oil we need yet. Why would we export oil if we are still importing oil from OPEC (3.8 million barrels per day)? We need to ramp our own production up and keep it home. There is no need to export crude oil abroad.

3. If we keep the oil here and export the refined products, there is a value chain created in the U.S. before we export the refined product. That means some of that profit stays here (in the form of wages, taxes, investment in infrastructure, etc...). The value of the export isn't in the raw product, it is in the finished goods. That's why the law is fine with me.

I'm sure that there are excellent reasons to open up crude oil exports. I’m really on the fence. But I hope that my points give you something to think about.

So, What do you think?

America- Changing Before Our Very Eyes. But, Fear Not

Editorial; October 2013; I sleep just fine at night.

This World is not Our Home, We're Just-a-passin' Through

When I hear liberals who voted for Obama (hard to find anyone who will actually admit it anymore) whine and excuse themselves by saying, "Well, I didn't know he was going to _____...", I have absolutely no sympathy for them.

Everyone had a chance to predict what a socialist would do, but only half the country took the opportunity to properly predict Obama's actions by voting no. The other half? Not so much.

Socialists, communists and statists will always seek more power, while a saboteur like Obama goes even further by seeking actions of the most destruction, reserving the most damage for the final months of his control. With the media's willing collusion, Obama is systematically destroying America, while judges, military leaders, police commanders and all others who might actually be instructed to fire on and imprison their neighbors watch it happen; hoping that they can retire or otherwise vacate their office before it happens.

There are Three Stooges scenes that remind me of Obama's actions. One stands out among the others as a perfect alegory to Obama's playbook. Moe open-slaps Curly real hard on the right cheek. When Curly's eyes clear up and his ears stop ringing, he looks back at Moe and cries, "Why did you do that!?" Moe looks him right in the face and says, "Do what?"

Moe is Obama. Mobama.

Mobama keeps slapping us and slapping us. He never has to say why he's doing it. He can deny, change the subject, even use the most confusing and illogical explanations, like, "You slapped yourself." He gets away with it because nobody with the microphone is asking why. Mobama's bosses just sit and watch it all happen.

This will continue until an adult in the room stands up and says, "Enough!"

We need some more Scott Walkers and Sarah Palins who have vowed to stand in the gap; Rand Paul and others already in office who have proven that they have what it takes to put others' before their career.

We may never again see pre Obama and Clinton America. But, the least we can do is not give up.

If a complete reset is in order, then one has to reach further back for an American template to follow than the Bill Clinton era of debacles. One needs to reach all the way back prior to The New Deal of FDR. Because America needs to know what it is like to live under a governmental rule that respects and supports the Rule of law. Every American alive today knows only the treason of a lawless government.

My generation and the rest of the overlapping generations of "Baby-Boomers" have always took for granted American patriotism. We remember family members and national heroes who did hard things during war time and The Great Depression. We can only look back to those heroes because there are no heroes now, according to our press corps.

Black is called white and white is called black. Liars are hailed for their forward thinking while those who defend the Rule of law and our U.S. Constitution are called anarchists and saboteurs. When one calls out Obama for his lies, deceit and America-hating reforms that harm American families including military patriots and families who are paying and have paid the ultimate sacrifice, they are called racists.

Without people who can and will stand in the gap against these domestic enemies, America has no hope. Everything rises and falls on leadership. The citizen can not save this country without leaders.

Who will stand up for America in this crises? Who is hiding? Who is it that will be pointed to and acclaimed as the one who is here for such a time as this?

Meanwhile, Jesus is having the trumpet shined and placed in position by the warrior angel who gets to sound His return.

Know this; you who hate America enough to support Obama and his minions, are helping him prepare this country for the end times. And then, you can proudly look around you and say, "I built this."

Governor Scott Walker stands up to National Park Service

The National Park Service, in direct violation of the Constitution, tried to tell Wisconsin to close state parks in Kettle Moraine State Forest, Devil’s Lake State Park and Wisconsin’s oldest park, Interstate Park. There are a few other locations, but none of the state areas will be closed.

State response

Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Cathy Step has spoken on the issue. “After close review and legal consult, DNR has clarified areas where the federal procedures are over-reaching by ordering the closure of properties where the state has management authority through existing agreements.”

In a press release, the DNR official stance is while the federal government shutdown has closed federal properties in Wisconsin, such as the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore and some national wildlife refuges, and improved campgrounds and other buildings in the Chequamegon and Nicolet National Forests, all state, county and local recreational areas remain open in Wisconsin.

The DNR has also been removing barricades wherever the NPS has illegally put them up.

Children and American War Heroes; Obama's Chosen Enemies

Everything Rises and Falls on Leadership

One can tell everything about a man by his actions, his friends and who he chooses as enemies.

In the case of Barrack Hussein Obama, his chosen enemies are WWII Veterans and children. In the last government shut down, it was scheduled White House tours for school kids that Obama specifically chose to cancel, and then denied it.

In the current shut down, it was World War II veterans he chose to alienate when he purposefully and  physically blockaded them from their war memorial.

Just waiting for the denial to make everything complete.

Parent faces 10 years in jail for asking questions about Common Core

Freedom of Speech Dead in Obama's New America

Robert Small, a father of two, went to a panel in Towson, Maryland hoping to relay his concerns about Common Core, national curriculum standards pushed by the Obama Administration. Rather than answer his questions, state school officials intimidated him and subsequently had him arrested (emphasis added):

Small stood and interrupted Baltimore County School Superintendent Dallas Dance during a question-and-answer session and began to tell the audience that he believed the new curriculum was lowering the standards of education and was intended to prepare students for community colleges. “You are not preparing them for Harvard,” he said.

It's Official -- House Votes to Stop Funding for Obamacare

This just in from Tea Party Patriots National Support Team

Patriots,

Your hard work is paying off and for now it seems the House Leadership is listening to the will of the American people. The House just voted 230 to 189 to keep the government funded while stopping funding for Obamacare.

Now the ball is in Harry Reid's court. What will he do? Will he continue to ignore the will of the American people or will he finally listen to the people he represents and stop Obamacare from further destroying our economy?

This is a critical moment and we need everyone making phone calls to Harry Reid to tell him to listen to the voice of the American people.

Call Harry Reid now and tell him that we will not rest until we stop Obamacare!

Harry Reid: 202-224-3542

Obamacare Continues to Rattle Apart -- The Low-Info-Left Dubs it a Success

Trader Joe's Dropping Insurance For Employees; ThinkProgress Says This Means Obamacare Works!

The wheels have been coming off the Obamacare bus for quite a while now, and always there is the mainstream media performing pit crew duty to cobble it back together and send it on it’s way.

But even they have their limit.

More and more companies are announcing that the onerous regulations of ObominableCare are forcing them to shut down health care plans they can no longer afford for their employees. You might think this would be a problem, but have no fear! The worst of lapdog media mendacity fromThinkProgress assures all Americans that this is a sign that Obamacare is actually working!

Gun Control Recalled ! Victory for Rule of Law

By PETER FERRARA on 9.11.13 @ 6:08AM

Yesterday’s Colorado defeats don’t bode well for Democrats in 2014.

Colorado voters yesterday successfully recalled two Democrat Colorado state Senators who led passage of a package of state gun control laws reflecting President Obama’s overcooked national rhetoric in the wake of the tragic Sandy Hook elementary school shooting in Connecticut last December.

With 100% of the vote counted, Senate President John Morse conceded defeat after trailing all night. Senator Angela Giron lost by a wider 56% to 44% margin with all of the vote counted in her Pueblo, Colorado district. Both were replaced by Republicans, reducing the Democrat majority in the state Senate to just one vote. The successful recall elections, raised questions about the future of Democratic Party candidates as President Obama’s protective national star fades and passes.

Why I am a Conservative

Since liberal, socialist and statist arguments can’t base their arguments in fact and solid evidence, but must at some time during an honest debate, resort to dishonesty, euphemisms, clichés, platitudes, inanities and absurdities; I thought I'd start listing some of the more famous ones here.

If nothing else, this document can always assist our liberal friends in reminding them what words to say when faced with real conclusions, reasons, evidence and fact that seems to stall their touchy-feely argument of the moment.

The following statements say a lot without explaining anything. They are labels meant to motivate without providing actual clues to their intent.

In other words, these are completely empty and useless statements, made so by those who are doing their best to provide services and commodities for all, without a way to pay for any of it.

• Yes we can

If you can think of any more, please reply at the bottom of this post. Let's build a complete list of terms, words and phrases that The Left has skewed for their lying purposes.

When the government spends money, it is spending my money. Because, the government has nothing unless it takes it from me, or I give it willingly. I am the American taxpayer.

If the government spends my money without giving me a say in how that money gets spent, it is rightly called taxation without representation.

Taxation without representation under the tyrant rule of the British crown, and other nations, was one of the main causes and motivations for the founding of America and the US Constitution.

America under Constitutional rule is what made this country the great nation that it became; including the industrial revolution that changed the way humans lived, forever.

The loud left says otherwise. They say that America was made great by diversity of skin color and diversity of culture.

America obviously could not have been made great by diversity. Diversity never created anything of value that humans would pay for as a commodity. And, it was humans buying and selling that made America the great and beneficial nation that it was before the our freedoms were stolen by government interventions and dishonesty in the elected seat of government.

Buying and selling; commerce. The free trade of goods within a protected border of national identity; that free trade. This is what made it possible for America to win a war and then turn right around and put a hand down to lift up the fallen country that had just lost a war. That is national compassion.

Commerce at a local level that builds up communities to such a financial state of health that when someone has a need, churches, families neighbors and friends have the ability and the will to lend a helping hand. Individual compassion.

Compassion was not created by the lying liberal and the sneaky statist. Compassion placed its foot on the free soil of the American continent at Plymouth Rock in 1620; long before communism and socialism taught pluralist liberals how to deceive their way into local and high level government office.

Liberals make their long ranging decisions based on the false assumption that the Rule of Law, The US Constitution, and Free Enterprise will just go on generating the massive wealth that America has produced, but without the benefits of Free Enterprise, without the Rule of Law and without following The US Constitution. Yes, the very definitions of insanity and stupidity; to maintain present course while expecting change, or changing course while expecting no change in result.

This is why I am a Conservative.

What are you, and why? And, what are you doing to support what you believe in?

The Larger Problem About Washington DC-- and No Fix In Sight ON THIS PLANET

The Battle is Larger Than You Think

This is a longer read than most posts of its nature. The body below is 1,448 words long. I suggest printing it out, finding your favorite place to site, and read it through in one sitting. It carries more than one thought that might hand you some game changers in your quest for some answers in todays Obama-ish America.

I have always counted Friday as part of my weekend. So, I write this offering in hopes that you will at least purpose to read this over the weekend. Again, print it out, set it somewhere appropriate, and read it every time you visit that seat.
EDITOR

My view comes from a summary of the daily reads to which I subject myself six days a week (I don't want to head to church on Sunday mornings with my head filled with the exasperating problems on a global scale when I'm attempting to hit my weekly, spiritual reset button). And, today it seems that everyone is talking about three main topics; 

• The growth of Conservatives in Congress, but lacking real change in results
• Waning American Morals
• A Leftist Media that must follow its agenda or die trying

I can add or change this short list to really narrow down the problem but it still doesn't address the root issue;

• A Leftist Media that must follow its agenda or die trying
• Cowardice in the Judges Seat

My unlearned opinion is that all of our major issues can boil down to these two facts; 1) Our society no longer knows what is going on in our society; the Truth is buried 7 days a week by our lying media, 2) Judges who have the authority, power and responsibility to fix America, won't.

The "S" word

This being stated, we still are not talking about the root cause. And here's where America's Press, even the conservative media upon whom we on the Right have come to rely like Sirs Limbaugh, Hannity, Drudge and Fox News, NewsMax and many others, are left in the dust scratching their collective heads because they dare not broach the real cause and fix, even if they happen to stumble upon it by accident.

The cause of all of our national and global woes is Sin in the church house, and in the home, pure and simple; the willful abandonment collectively and refusal personally of God's commandments and requirements for a fulfilling and righteous life on this planet.

Our Conservative media can't expose this one all-consuming cause because they feel that they would lose any shred of credibility with -- uh -- uh -- with whom? With whom does the Media Right have credibility?

I'll answer that for you; they have loads of credibility with us; those on the Right who largely believe in The Bible, transparency, truth and honesty. And furthermore, are looking for solutions to large and difficult problems.

Why do we so appreciate Rush Limbaugh? It certainly is NOT for his entertainment value, nor his morals or personal habits. He smokes cigars, drinks liqueur, makes off color jokes about sex and women, and has been divorced three times and married four. So, no, it ain't his morals.

It's because at the time of its Earth shaking release upon an unsuspecting Leftist-Media-In-Power in 1988, The Rush Limbaugh Program was the only source releasing Truth at large and on an arguably even footprint volume wise as the main stream media.

"Honest people living in a vacuum of truth are starving for it."

It's all about rebel truth telling. Honest people living in a vacuum of truth are starving for it. It's all about the truth.

The Conservative media tries to give us the truth on a limited diet; limited because every time they deliver the truth to us, they are also exposing their contempt for the Left media. And even though they are trying to be honest, they still hate to be hated; especially by other media professionals who are looked upon by pop culture as the Media Elite.

Limited also because I believe they partially buy into the incorrect assumption that talking about God, Bible, Sin, The Enemy (Satan) robs them of credibility, because they recognize the contempt for God that pop culture currently carries, mostly created by and fire-fanned by the Leftist media; the vicious circle of catch 22 circles-within-circles that muddies the waters of Truth telling.

Doing right has its own rewards. And thank God that everything does NOT rise and fall on what the media elite and Washington D.C. has for breakfast every morning. We can, each of us choose what we will do each day regardless of what we did yesterday, last week or last year.

Why is it that individuals doing the right thing have so much more power than large groups of tens of thousands of voters doing the right thing? The answer is because those larger groups would not exist without individuals; but, more importantly because God's Word says so.

God speaks to the individuals who make up the larger groups. Look at 

2 Chronicles 7:14

King James Version (KJV)

14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

"My people." 

Now, I'm going to suggest something that worldly, purest Bible scholars and those who think they are, will argue with. Regardless, it needs to be said.

When this portion of The Bible was penned, "... my people..." meant the nation of Israel. But, what other group can be more appropriately attributed to this passage than "Christians"?

I am a Christian and therefore I am a part of  "... my people ..." by adoption through my acceptance of Christ as my savior and His death and resurrection in payment for my sin. But, I am also a part of the group called "... my people ..." directly because my earthly father was a Jew. So by birth, I also can claim responsibility for carrying out God's commands as well as enjoying the benefits of His promises. (Yes, I am fully aware that the Hebrew familial predominance has traditionally been only through the maternal blood. But I speak of genetics, not property rights.)

So, when did this Bible verse written to Jews and Christians become null and void? When did any part of The Bible cease to be relevant? Answer that question and you will learn more about yourself than virtually any other Truth.

Do you believe God's Word? If you do, then you are an honest person living in a truth vacuum, starving for truth.

The Fix-all

Believing God's Word is a personal thing with wide ranging results. 

Example; why does it often appear that all of the dishonest media seem to have so many common articles and news stories in their outlets without having a regular daily meeting, let alone a Monday morning meeting? How can they stay so well synchronized most of the time without direct communication with each other; almost like they are getting orders from a higher power?

No, it's not The White House we have to worry about.

Ephesians 6:12

King James Version (KJV)

12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

We do have a common enemy. He's real, powerful and hides near the highest levels of human power and authority. His influence can be seen in all of the major news stories that serve a common agenda that hates Christ and Christians, Truth and Righteousness, Honesty and Discernment.

If this is not true, then how would you better describe the manifestation and evidence of a real enemy being in control of the strings from the top?

But, we can rest easier every night knowing that we do not have to fight directly against The Enemy, nor worry about the end of the bigger picture because we know that also. The Fix for everything is too direct in theory and too difficult in execution to be attempted by human effort alone. So, it is with daily fortitude and unfailing prayer that we ask God for the strength and guidance to daily execute Goodness; His Goodness.  Doing what God says daily, in our personal lives leads to the collective substance of what made America great. 

"America is great because America is good. If America ceases to be good, America will cease to be great." 1833 Alexis deTocqeville or those summarizing his thoughts.

Obama is doing his best to rob America of our goodness under the guise of a religiously antiseptic agenda that idolizes the murderous mission of Islam, while inhibiting the freedom of Christianity. We see it almost daily in his actions and the result of his influence globally.

Each of us can't battle him physically for a number of real reasons. But each of us can go to battle against him and his god in an arena in which he has no clue how to fight. In a sense, we can lawfully and legally cheat in this game of real warfare because we have the Master on our side. The master who built the game board, all the players and authored the unchangeable rules.

And in doing so, we win against the lying media, the cowardice judiciary branch of our government, and the real author of the weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us.

6 Key Phrases Used by Unreasoning Agents of Destruction

During my return to college (2001-2004), I had the opportunity to take a Speech and Debate class. We were blessed with a very conservative and fair minded professor who really just wanted us to learn and hone our debate skills, regardless of the topic. She was one of those who revelled in having one of us eloquently crush our opponent in class, and then demand that the winner turn around and debate from the opposing view. 

I often deliberately chose highly controversial topics because debating was not enough for me; I also wanted to be right, in an environment that was predominantly Liberal. So, I developed several topics for discussion that were sure to draw heated debating partners. The following came from some of those topic studies.

My summation is that I am providing a public service to all by handing out these free tips. We must often be reminded that the Liberal mind is one that is twisted and skewed to operate without the constraining influence of solid structure. Theirs is a fantasy world without constraint of resources. Much like the Star Trek world created by Gene Roddenberry, in their minds The Great Society should provide for all equally so that all can pursue true happiness towards whatever destination that might be. And, anyone holding to the antiquated theories of hard work for a day's pay in order to gain, is only good for the menial labor necessary to provide for the physical maintenance of real of society; their society.

So it was that I learned many years ago that Liberals do not have to be convinced; they just have to be defeated. So, when you run into someone using the words below in a way that suggests that they might be a liberal, don't waste too much time trying to convince them of Truth and The Rule of Law. Just defeat them at the polls every two years.

This obviously is only a partial list.

You might be a Liberal if… you don’t get any of this.

PROGRESSIVE

• Meaning; “I am using thought processes beyond your ability to understand anything important.”
• Example; “I have moved beyond The Rule of Law. The US Constitution is too confining and narrow. I take a more progressive view.”
• Reality; Liberals must willingly overlook and ignore The Rule of Law in order to follow their agenda. It does not bother them one whit that they are destroying the very foundations that provide them the safe intellectual harbor in which they are existing. 

LIBERAL (in politics)

• Meaning to the Liberal; To take from the endless richness of the American Government coffers and give to all who are hurting or in need.
• Meaning to everyone else; Being liberal (loose) with The Rule of Law in order to meet whatever agenda is convenient at the time.
• Example; “It’s not fair that some have and some do not. The rich have no right to hoard so much wealth at the expense of the poor.”
• Reality; To forcefully convert ownership of someone’s goods and make it to be owned by someone else is illegal. There is a name for that crime. It is called Theft. The act of being liberal with tax generated funds while redistributing wealth makes it no less of a Theft. 

CONSERVATIVE (in politics)

• Meaning to the Liberal; A person who is mean spirited, money-grubbing, selfish, hateful, narrow-minded, racist, bigoted homophobic and challenged to anything that smells of change.
• Meaning to everyone else; to hold closely to the fundamental meanings of founding documents and statutes. 

HOMOPHOBIC

• Meaning to the Liberal; To be fearful of and hate persons who hold to the alternative lifestyle known as Homosexuality.
• Example; Usually an accusation made against anyone who claims to be a Christian or believe in The Bible. 

TOLERANCE

• Meaning to the Liberal; “Everyone should be tolerant to my beliefs.”
• Meaning to everyone else; Everyone should show measured tolerance towards all reasonable beliefs.
• Example; Liberals commonly are the first to jump to any public accusatory demands whenever a Conservative might be publically disagreeing with a Liberal ideology. 

RACIST

• Meaning to the Liberal; For a white person to disagree for any reason with a black person.
• Example A; “It doesn't make any difference that Obama’s official birth certificate has been investigated by duly appointed government officials and deemed a forgery. Just investigating his birth certificate was a racist action because Barrack Obama is black.”
• Example B; Many black people and leftists believe that a black person can not commit a racist act or make a racist statement, simply because they are black. Being black exempts them from racism. While debating in a college class in Chicago in 2001, my debate opponent (a nice black lady) actually claimed that I was in error in my description of the meaning of racism because if I were correct, “…it would mean that a black person was capable of committing a racist act, which is impossible; because they are black. Black people can’t be racist, because they are black, so it’s impossible. ‘Cause they’re black…” etc
• Example C; Not a week goes by in today’s pop media circus that someone’s defense of a claim being made against our black president must be racist because “Obama is black.”
• Reality; From Merriam Webster’s Dictionary of the English Language; 2012. “Definition of RACISM
• 1  : a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race
• 2  : racial prejudice or discrimination
• — rac·ist  noun or adjective

My personal favorite that sums up the elitist frame of mind that must be acquired in order to follow the Western Liberal way of life, is a quote I created from a combination of something from the American Humorist, George Carlin, mixed with my own understanding of western culture.

“All men are created equal. Some are just more equal than others.”

A reader asked us to make Hillary honest. So we did.

Benghazi!!!!

Just seeing if you were asleep, Citizen.

You cover me from the parking lot; I’m goin’ in to get the mail.

“You cover me from the parking lot; I’m goin’ in to get the mail.”

This might be what is heard in every village, town and city in the US that has a Post Office.

We all know that to ban guns from a building, without a way to confirm gun possession with metal detectors and airport type security, only creates one of the most dangerous areas that an individual can enter. This is what post offices have become in the past several years as The US Postal Service un Constitutionally declared their buildings “Gun-Free Zones”.

Earlier this week, Senior U.S. District Judge Richard Matsch ruled that a U.S. Postal Service regulation

banning firearms in its parking lots violates the Second Amendment.

Here’s the formal Press Release.
