Today I sent a postcard to the British Embassy in Washington, DC to express my disgust at the behavior of President & Mrs. Obama during their Prime Minister’s recent visit to the White House. I meant to send this postcard earlier, but as I’m sure you’ve noticed thanks to the lack of posts lately, I haven’t been feeling so well and have been quite busy with doctors and such. But I figure, better late than never, right?
So in response to the Obama’s abominable behavior, I wanted to send my own apologies to the British people. As I’m sure you’ve heard, the Obamas were less than hospitable to our guests, the Prime Minister and his wife. If you still haven’t heard (which wouldn’t be surprising, since the MSM hasn’t even bothered to mention it), click “More” to learn about what transpired and to read the letter I sent today to the British Embassy.

It looks like I’ll be around for another four years, or however long it takes for the Berg lawsuit to finally prove Obama’s ineligibility, Obama’s impeached, or he’s run out of town by the Peggys of the country who will be so distraught when they find out Obama can’t wave a magic wand and magically fill up her gas tank and pay her mortgage. Let’s all cross our fingers that it’s the former, rather than the latter.

That said, I’ve been putting off writing this post. My mind has been a jumble of disappointment, heartache, and sheer astonishment. I apologize that this post will probably be disjointed, but I’m just going to let my thoughts spill out as they come to me.

I only caught a little bit of Obama’s victory speech, so I can’t really offer a reaction to the whole thing. But was the segment where he declared “Yes, we can” as the new national statement, with the crowd chanting it back at him, did anybody else think that was kinda creepy?

Unlike what the Democrats were hoping, Obama did not receive a mandate. This was a remarkably close race everywhere, which means he does not enjoy such a vast majority that he’ll be able to get away with radical left-of-the-left policies.

I am so incredibly, incredibly disappointed that the Democrats’ fraudulent primary, unimaginable amounts of money, and complete media manipulation has been vindicated. I believe this has set us so far back with regard to campaign reform that it’s absolutely sickening. I keep thinking about all the good that could have been done in this country with the three quarters of a billion dollars at Obama’s disposal during the campaign, it just makes my heart sink.

I’m just in absolute shock that we have a President Hussein.

Since we’ve just elected another Jimmy Carter, I’m rather interested to see if this will lead to another revolution within the Republican party two to four years from now. I really miss Reagan, so I’d be completely happy with a true Reagan successor bringing true honor, respect, and leadership back to the Republican party. I may not be a Republican, but I do believe they have a positive impact on this country and that their influence is needed to balance out the influence of the Democrats.

I am so, so, so, so relieved that enough Republican senators held on to their seats so that we can avoid a supermajority in the Senate. The House is pretty remarkably uneven, but at least the Senate isn’t beyond filibuster. Checks and balances are absolutely integral to our survival, so I am relieved that we have at least managed to retain a portion of that in our government.

President Hussein. Seriously.

I thought McCain’s concession speech was very respectable, eloquent, civilized, and well delivered. Above all else, no one can possibly claim that McCain ever sacrificed his dignity throughout this election. He has remained dignified, classy, and above all else, he was most certainly post-racial, which I believe is to be commended.

Okay, time for something horribly catty, but I just can’t help myself. What the hell was up with Michelle Obama’s dress!?! That was the most unflattering thing I think I have ever seen. It made her hips and behind look gigantic, the way it split up the color made her appear chopped off in unflattering ways, and that red. Holy crap, that splotch of red. Sorry, but it just looked like a blood splatter. She may be our next first lady, but Jackie Kennedy she most certainly is not. I really hope she can find herself a better stylist.

We better prepare ourselves for four gaffe-tastic years with Joe Biden as the VP, and the inevitable plethora of teleprompter-free moments with Obama. In the gaffe department, the two of them are going to make Dan Quayle look like an intellectual.

I’m still really curious to know how much of an influence ACORN and voter fraud in general had on this election.

Please, PUMA Democrats, do not give up on your fight now! Your party needs reform now more than ever. Please don’t give up, don’t let them to continue to walk all over you now that they have ultimate power, now that their behavior has been vindicated. Don’t give up, don’t give in!

I’m cheering for Philip J. Berg even harder now.

I cannot believe that we have elected a President who flat out would not qualify for an upper level security clearance. That boggles my mind.

Damn, my liberal brother is going to be insufferable during Thanksgiving.

My biggest hope is that we will somehow find a way to prevent the Democrats from instituting socialized medicine. If we cannot avoid this, I honestly have no clue what options I will have left. Where could I go on this Earth to avoid socialized medicine?

In other news, my desktop died today. Man, it was just a bad day all the way around.

Almost more than anything else, I feel so cheated that I cannot be thoroughly thrilled over the fact that we just elected the first African American President of the United States. I am so disappointed that I can’t be happy about this. Ever since I left that segregated first grade classroom all those years ago, I have been looking forward to the day when we could get beyond that bigotry and look up to a black President. But I am literally so disheartened that of all the African American presidents we could have had, we got him. Of all the brilliant, qualified, dignified, exceptional African Americans we could have had, we got Obama. We got a man with no experience, no credentials, no solid record, a plethora of questionable associates, and goodness knows what else.
And worst of all, if he fails spectacularly, if his leadership leaves us more vulnerable, more unstable, and more bitter, he will have made the climb to the Presidency that much harder for an African American leader who is qualified, who is exceptional, who is experienced, who is a good and proven leader. I really wish I could be happy about this historic day, but I can’t, because of who this leader is.

Lastly, President Obama is not my President. He will not be, unless by some miracle, he really can turn this country around without digging us deeper into the hell hole of socialism. Barring that, Barack Hussein Obama will never be my president. And that makes me so very sad indeed.

Please feel free to share your thoughts. I’ll probably add more as I continue to make sense of the thoughts whirling through my mind.

“Spread The Wealth Around”

I’m really, really, really sorry that this video is from Fox News, but I haven’t been able to find the source video anywhere else and I really think you need to see it. It doesn’t have any talking heads speaking over it, no anchor offers his editorial opinion after it, it’s just Barack Obama’s own words. I’ve seen the longer version, this doesn’t do anything to take his words out of context; the split you’ll see it merely cutting out some pauses and a few “ums” and “ers”. Since the longer version did have talking heads over it, I’ve chosen to show this shortened version instead.
Anyway, watch and listen as Barack Obama personally answers a direct question from a plumber who owns his own small business:

Plumber: Your new tax plan’s gonna to tax me more, isn’t it?

Obama: It’s not that I want to punish your success, I just wanna make sure that everybody who is behind you, that they have a chance at success too… I think when you spread the wealth around, it’s good for everybody.

“Spread the wealth around.” Read that again. Go ahead. Watch it again. Listen to what he’s saying. Listen to it.
Now tell me that’s not Socialism.

We’ve heard such statements before from Michelle Obama, we’ve heard it from people on the periphery of the campaign, we’ve even heard allusions to it from Obama. But this is the first time that I’m aware of where those words, such specific words, have come straight from the mouth of Obama while on the campaign trail. How much more obvious does it need to get before people realize that Obama is a flat out socialist?

Read more after the jump. I do hope you’ll continue reading, as this is one of the most important posts I’ve ever written. I’d greatly appreciate your kind attention.

“A Civilian National Security Force”

This is just about the scariest thing I’ve ever heard come out of Obama’s mouth, “We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded [as the military].”
Does that rub anyone else the wrong way? If it doesn’t, perhaps some context about the setting in which he said that would help to illuminate exactly why such an idea is so frightening. He has spoken about this civilian national security force at events for a non-profit group he helped create, which his wife now runs: Public Allies. It’s a training program for young Americans, in which they are extolled to shun “money culture”, where – in Obama’s own words – “Individual salvation depends on collective salvation.” It gets worse. According to individuals who have gone through training from Public Allies, they’re taught that America is nothing but a hotbed of racism, oppression, sexism, homophobia, and greedy, money-grubbing white supremacists.
That’s Obama’s model for his proposed Civilian National Security Force.

The Investor’s Business Daily has a brilliant article about this issue, both Obama’s statements during the campaign, as well as the truth about Public Allies. In my opinion, it’s an absolute must read for every single voter. The parallels in history are just too serious, too concerning, and too frightening to ignore.

Michelle’s Boot Camp for Radicals
By INVESTOR’S BUSINESS DAILY | Posted Thursday, September 04, 2008 4:20 PM PT

Election ‘08: Democrats’ reintroduction of militant Michelle Obama in Denver was supposed to show her softer side. But it only highlighted a radical part of her resume: Public Allies.

Barack Obama was a founding member of the board of Public Allies in 1992, resigning before his wife became executive director of the Chicago chapter of Public Allies in 1993. Obama plans to use the nonprofit group, which he features on his campaign Web site, as the model for a national service corps. He calls his Orwellian program, “Universal Voluntary Public Service.”

Big Brother had nothing on the Obamas. They plan to herd American youth into government-funded reeducation camps where they’ll be brainwashed into thinking America is a racist, oppressive place in need of “social change.”

The pitch Public Allies makes on its Web site doesn’t seem all that radical. It promises to place young adults (18-30) in paid one-year “community leadership” positions with nonprofit or government agencies. They’ll also be required to attend weekly training workshops and three retreats.

In exchange, they’ll get a monthly stipend of up to $1,800, plus paid health and child care. They also get a post-service education award of $4,725 that can be used to pay off past student loans or fund future education.

But its real mission is to radicalize American youth and use them to bring about “social change” through threats, pressure, tension and confrontation — the tactics used by the father of community organizing, Saul “The Red” Alinsky.

“Our alumni are more than twice as likely as 18-34 year olds to . . . engage in protest activities,” Public Allies boasts in a document found with its tax filings. It has already deployed an army of 2,200 community organizers like Obama to agitate for “justice” and “equality” in his hometown of Chicago and other U.S. cities, including Cincinnati, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, New York, Phoenix, Pittsburgh and Washington. “I get to practice being an activist,” and get paid for it, gushed Cincinnati recruit Amy Vincent.

Public Allies promotes “diversity and inclusion,” a program paper says. More than 70% of its recruits are “people of color.” When they’re not protesting, they’re staffing AIDS clinics, handing out condoms, bailing criminals out of jail and helping illegal aliens and the homeless obtain food stamps and other welfare.

Public Allies brags that more than 80% of graduates have continued working in nonprofit or government jobs. It’s training the “next generation of nonprofit leaders” — future “social entrepreneurs.”

The Obamas discourage work in the private sector. “Don’t go into corporate America,” Michelle has exhorted youth. “Work for the community. Be social workers.” Shun the “money culture,” Barack added. “Individual salvation depends on collective salvation.”

“If you commit to serving your community,” he pledged in his Denver acceptance speech, “we will make sure you can afford a college education.” So, go through government to go to college, and then go back into government.

Many of today’s youth find the pitch attractive. “I may spend the rest of my life trying to create social movement,” said Brian Coovert of the Cincinnati chapter. “There is always going to be work to do. Until we have a perfect country, I’ll have a job.”

Not all the recruits appreciate the PC indoctrination. “It was too touchy-feely,” said Nelly Nieblas, 29, of the 2005 Los Angeles class. “It’s a lot of talk about race, a lot of talk about sexism, a lot of talk about homophobia, talk about -isms and phobias.”

One of those -isms is “heterosexism,” which a Public Allies training seminar in Chicago describes as a negative byproduct of “capitalism, white supremacy, patriarchy and male-dominated privilege.”

The government now funds about half of Public Allies’ expenses through Clinton’s AmeriCorps. Obama wants to fully fund it and expand it into a national program that some see costing $500 billion. “We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded” as the military, he said.

The gall of it: The Obamas want to create a boot camp for radicals who hate the military — and stick American taxpayers with the bill.

Obviously, I was not around during World War II. I was born in the lavish comfort of the 1980s. But both of my Grandmothers are still alive today. Their husbands, both of my Grandfathers, served in the military during the war. There are not enough words to describe my fear that in my Grandmothers’ own lifetime, we could see a return to the same sort of radical control of youth at the hand of any political leader. But worst of all, it would be a return in our own country, the country my Grandfathers fought to defend from such horrific extremism and maniacal control. Here, in one of the most prosperous nations on Earth. Not only that, but we are easily the most generous nation on the planet, as we give more humanitarian aid – both federally and privately – than any other nation. Sure, we aren’t perfect, sure we have our problems. But our people are better than this! All Americans don’t deserve to be written off as racist, sexist, homophobic, white supremacists! We are one of the most gracious, most tolerant, most accepting people on the face of this Earth. How could a presidential candidate get away with saying otherwise? Not only does it baffle me, but it greatly disturbs me. It doesn’t take a PhD in history to recognize the parallels between what we’re seeing now and what has come before. But it kills me that more people simply aren’t aware of it.
It was never truer than it it is today, “Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” Here we are facing an election with a candidate whose taxes are reminiscent of Herbert Hoover, whose economic policies are almost word-for-word like those of Jimmy Carter, and now this? A civilian national security force, based upon a radical training camp for youth? Seriously? For the sake of my Grandfathers, I sincerely hope I am not alone in refusing to stay quiet. I will not watch this happen to our own country.
Think I’m going overboard? Then investigate it for yourself. Don’t let this discussion end here. If you think I’ve gone too far, then do your own research and challenge me. Don’t just turn away, because what if I’m right?
