Obama's economic policy hurting us already!!

As the markets continue to tumble people are asking why. In spite of the bailout, inspite of dropping oil prices, and in spite of all other fixes applied, the downward spiral continues.
 
The answer isn't really that difficult. Our financial markets run on speculation, forecasting, and futures. What the market is seeing is that Barack Hussein Obama is leading in the polls. What the markets are hearing is that Barack Hussein Obama will be president.
 
What the markets are doing is correcting in advance of higher taxes, more regulation, and an administration that has made no secret of it's intention to go after the so-called rich.
 
Barack Hussein Obama has engaged in class envy and warfare. His economic policies reflect this position.
 
The election hasn't even taken place and his policies are hurting America. As president you can expect more pain as jobs dissappear and the cost of everything goes up.
 
As big of a hit as we took after 911, the markets rebounded and hit new highs. The difference then was we had a President who gave us hope. A man who didn't look to punish us but instead gave us tax credits and other incentives to pump our economy up.
 
Barack Hussein Obama now offers us  a future of higher taxes taxes, higher prices, and is promising to revoke our tax credits.
 
This is the future our markets are seeing and that is why are markets are down and the financial crisis is deepening.
 
 
 
The poor will suffer the most under Obama's policies. Here is what to expect:
 
Less take home pay due to higher payroll tax and repeal of existing tax cuts

small businesses to shut down due to increased tax and new regulations they cannot afford

Increased unemployment

Decreased jobs

Decreased charitable contributions as people have less disposable income

Financial markets to trend increasingly downward as investors prepare for increased taxes

Increase in the price goods and services due to increased tax on business

More government intrusion into our lives

More government programs that will require more taxes

More individual bankruptcy

More home foreclosures as jobs disappear

The poor to fall even deeper into poverty

First time jobs for teens to vanish

High paying jobs to vanish

Rationing of goods as manufacturers reduce output due to decreased demand

Increased crime

Welfare rolls to swell to a historical level, which will require more taxes to maintain

Nationalized healthcare that will reduce choice and the level of care being offered

Let's Talk Trooper Gate.....

Okay, you want to investigate Palin using her power to get a trooper fired, no problem.
 
To do this we first must know her reason for, allegedly, wanting the trooper fired.
 
How about the trooper himself admitting he tasered his ten year old stepson?  Whoah, stop the press and take a breath! Did I just say he tasered a ten year old child?
 
To me, nothing else about this case matters. Not the divorce her sister was going through with the trooper, not the safety commisioner be fired, nothing!
 
Once we know that this trooper was unstable enough to taser a child, the rest of the discussion is a mute point. What kind of person does that! And more importantly, do we want that type of person being a law enforecment officer?
 
Nowhere in any emails, documents, or discussions did Sarah Palin say the trooper was to be fired. But if she would have, I'd say she was doing her job to protect the citizens of Alaska. That one of then happens to be her sister is of no concern to me. Her family deserves the same protection everyone else demands. Being a family member of a politician does not disqualify you from being safe.
 
The people speaking out are those who admit to being political foes of Sarah Palin. So much for intregity.
 
When you have a group that calls themselves "Alaska Mythbusters" that is made up mostly of elected officials from Alaska who have opposed or criticized Palin, you have to question their true intentions.
 
The one Alskan not speaking against the Palins is the trooper! In spite of his horrible actions, he appears to have more character than the press and Palin's political enemies.

Obama, Biden, planning revenge on Bush

More insight as to the real intentions of an Obama-Biden administration surfaced today.

It seems the democrat ticket has set their sights on continuing the assault against the George W. Bush. Both men have indicated they will seek to pursue criminal charges against the President if they are elected.

This is an important issue as it frames what these guys are really all about. Go here to read it  http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/sep/03/uselections2008.joebiden

The two most liberal men to ever run for the  White House dare to call into question the actions and policies of a man who has put himself in harms way to protect our country. One of them has no experience and has accomplished nothing in 143 days as a senator and the other has thirty years of doing nothing to add to the resume.

If the economy is as bad as these guys say, why is going after Bush even on their radar?

If the war in Iraq is a key platform for them, why is going after Bush on their minds.

If they re running a campaign against John McCain and Sarah Palin, why would they spend a minute of their time even talking about the man who is leaving office and not a candidate?

The answers are obvious, these men represent the agenda of the liberal wing of the democrat party which is to 'get Bush'! That's why Obama is there and Hillary is not. He is viewed as the messiah of the liberal agenda and seen as their best hope of accomplishing the goal of exacting revenge on Mr. Bush, one way or the other.
The last thing the libs want is to have to look back in another twenty years and have history prove Bush was right as it did Reagan.

The lack of experience and accomplishment as a lawmaker are certainly good reasons Obama is not qualified to be President. But the idea that he is not able to move forward and get over the hatred of George W. Bush, and seeks to use the office of President to continue the attacks, showcases his flawed character. It further demonstrates he, and his running mate, do not seek to unify the country or have any grasp of what really matters to the people they claim to represent.

Barack Obama and Joe Biden seem content to look backwards and remain stuck in the past. What kind of future is that?

Obama should tell press to "back off!"

Barack Obama was clear and to the point when he said family, especially the kids, were off limits during the campaign. he seemed angry that suggestions had been made that some of his staff may have been involved in any such activity and said point blank he would fire anyone he found to be taking part in attacks on Palin's children.
 
Those are wondefrully spoken great words, but as we all know, ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS.

It is time for Mr. Obama to summon the media to a press conference and tell them to stop going after the dirt on his opponents. it's fine for him to say 'his 'staff' is not involved, but only a complete idiot would deny that the press is doing his dirty work.

His staff doesn't need to attack Sara Palin's kids or husband when the media is doing it for them.

Since the press doesn't even try to hide it's support of the democrat candidate, by default Obama is the benefactor of  their dirty work.

We know it and so does Senator Obama.

He needs to back up his tough words with some tough action and reign the press in.

While the media is under no obligation to do anything he says, by doing this Obama would score big points for at least showing his intentions aren't just more of his empty words.

Experience does matter, just ask Obama !

When asked which Supreme Court justices he would not have nominated, Barack Hussein Obama said, "I would not have nominated Clarence Thomas. I don't think that he, I don't think that he was a strong enough jurist or legal thinker at the time for that elevation."

There you have it folks, a guy with less than a year under his belt as a US senator citing experience as the main factor for disqualification.

If you go to this link,  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKy5-AwdWDw  , you can watch the actual video clip. Pay close attention to Obama catching himself almost saying 'experience'.  Even though he caught himself and said something else, the meaning is the same. The key words are still 'at this time'. This indicates he feels Thomas is now a capable judge which I would guess comes from, that's right, EXPERIENCE!

Finally, something he and I agree on!

Biden, Boredom, who cares!?

The selection of Joe Biden as the Obama running mate represents nothing more than an occasion for the liberal media to slobber on themselves.

I know, there is finally someone on the ticket with some actual experience but who cares, Biden is not running for the office!

He's the number two guy on the ticket, and as Bill Clinton aptly demonstrated, the number two guy isn't even as important as the First lady!

The press will now focus on Biden's credentials in an attempt to put up yet another smoke screen to cover Obama's obvious lack of qualifications to run the country. They  will try to parlay Biden's experience into Obama's experience by promoting the 'team' mentality of the ticket. Does anyone think for a minute that Joe Biden would actually have any active role in an Obama White House?

In spite of the running mate selection of either party the question still remains, which of the two candidates, McCain or Obama, is more qualified to be President?

The answer is simple, it's the guy who doesn't have to use his VP as a crutch!

YOU WANT CHANGE? I HAVE CHANGE FOR YOU!

Obama bills himself as the candidate of change.

Bullsh**t! 
 
The only change he really wants is to change our country into a socialist empire that would make the French green with envy!

If you want real change, change that will make a difference for each American, here it is.

CHANGE 1 - term limits for Congress and the President. One six year term for President, one for the House, and one for the Senate. You could serve a total of 18 years, once in each position. After that, it's back home and back to work.

CHANGE 2 - Do away with the special rules that Congress lives under. Let them live under the same rules and laws that we all do. After all, they made them!

CHANGE 3 - Pay Congress the same wages our soldiers and police make. If it's good enough money for those who put their lives on the line, it ought to be good enough for those who sorry asses they protect!

I don't mean to make it sound to simplistic, but it is!  If you want change you have to be willing to actually do more than fill the air with sound bites and BS.

I promise you this, take the 'professionals' out of politics and it becomes people serving people as it once was, and should be.

What about experience you say? What about the time it takes to develop the skills needed to run the greatest country in the world?
Well let's think about that a minute, the presumptive democrat candidate, the messiah and savior of life as we know it, does not even have a full year of on the job experience as a US senator and yet he is hailed as the man who can save America. Is it just me or is that more liberal hypocrisy???????????????????????????????????????????

If you want change, start by changing your expectations of those you vote for.

Time to tell OPEC to shove it!

The president of OPEC, Chakib Khelil said they would not raise production to help stem the rising cost of fuel prices. He went on to say computer or car makers would not be asked to raise production if the prices were high.  Nice try, but that comparison will not float in this discussion. First of all, in America an alliance such as OPEC would be illegal. Car and computer makers could not legally meet and set production limits without running afoul of US law. So Mr. Khelil needs to get his head out of the sand, (pun intended), and admit that OPEC is enjoying the windfall profit from the price hike, no matter what the cause, and basking in the glory of seeing dependent countries, (such as America), feel the pinch. When you remove the competition factor from a product the users are at the mercy of the producers.

It is time we realize this situation is never going to change as long as we do not control our own destiny. We need to build refineries, drill our own soil for our own oil, turn to atomic energy for power, and stop the cycle of being manipulated by countries that have used technology we invented against us.

No, it won't happen overnight and bring immediate relief at the pump. But, the next twenty years will usher in a new era for America that will guarantee future generations that they will not be held hostage over oil. If we had reacted properly and looked forward during the energy crisis in the 70's we would not be having this discussion.

OPEC is a cartel of greed and power. By becoming energy independent we will render them obsolete. Our oil reserves are larger than those of Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. Imagine the impact it would have on how oil is sold worldwide if we were to become a major exporter.

The rising tide of pro drilling sentiment in the US will be watched closely by OPEC. I would not be surprised to see them make a move to take measures to drastically lower oil prices if they see we are going to change our position and begin exploration and drilling.

If this happens we need to make sure we don't fall for their maneuvers and continue forward in doing what we must to cut our dependency on their oil. If we don't, and let falling prices trick us into thinking the crisis is over, it will only be a matter of time before we are right back in the same situation, only with $8 a gallon gas and diesel.

John McCain's lesson in leadership

Changing your position and becoming enlightened are two very different things.

 

Barack Obama has accused John McCain of changing his opinion on drilling for oil on US land. While I understand the way the political games are played, I think Obama would be well advised to either steer clear of the oil issue or to embrace the renewed call for oil exploration on our soil.

Accusing someone of doing a flip flop on an issue that is having a negative impact on every American is pretty damn stupid.

 

When oil is relatively inexpensive, supplies ample, and the price at the pump is low you can continue to support the ban on drilling. But, when the price surges upward and is hurting the working folks it is a responsible move to re-evaluate your position and adjust it to meet the current and future needs.

 

It is a bold move to look at a situation and say “that was then, this is now”. This is the type of leadership I expect in a President.

 

Contrast this now with Obama’s position, When asked about high gas prices he responded by saying he would have rather the increase to have been over a longer period of time to give people a chance to adjust better.

 

So both men have made their energy policy known.

 

McCain has decided we must become energy independent by tapping our own resources.

 

Obama doesn’t have a problem with you paying more; he just wants to stretch it out over a longer period of time.

 

Which sounds Presidential and which sounds idiotic?

 

Remember folks, we get the government we deserve. Think about that when you treat voting like it’s no more than a sporting event.

An Email To John McCain

The road to victory is clear, be what Obama is not, a real choice.

Mr McCain, you have history calling your name but you're not listening.

If the election comes down to a choice between two 'say anything', 'feel good guys', Obama will mop the floor with you. he's younger, more exciting, and has the press carrying his empty water pail.

Stop catering to fence sitters and liberals who are baiting you into reaching out to them. Their plan is to alienate you from your real base.

Start listening to voices of the real working Americans who want leadership and strength in their President.

If you do that, you'll be able to hear history calling your name.

join the 'Us News Network'

Read this story and pass it on.
http://www.crosswalk.com/news/11577042/
It is another story the main stream media is not reporting.

The main stream media's job is to prop up the libs and overlook their failures, (and lies). This is expected and I'm to the point it doesn't even make me mad.

But the word has got to get out on this subject and the best source we have is each other.

We need to think of ourselves as a huge news network connected by our values and beliefs, and of course, the web.

We are UNN, the 'Us News Network'.

Hillary is RIGHT!

The modification of the truth, (lying), and future forecasting of results, (wishful thinking), has started. The latest poll out says Obama has an 8 point lead over McCain.
 
Hillary has been wrong once in this campaign, when she assumed she would be the candidate and agreed not to count Florida and Michigan, which was probably due more to ego than anything else.
 
She is not wrong however in saying Obama cannot win.
 
In spite of everything the media will do between now and November to try and induce voters to believe he is leading and will win, Obama will not be president.
 
There is a lot that we will find out about Obama between now and November, and a lot of it will only serve to lessen the rock star appeal he seems to have. People will find out there is nothing beneath the suit or behind the rhetoric and question his ability to do the job.
 
The disconnect with white voters of HIS own party will result in more votes for McCain, as will the defection of Hillary supporters who feel disenfranchised over the bitter primaries.
 
Add to this that McCain is a palletable choice to many moderates and independents, and you have the making of an old fashion a** kicking on election night.
 
I am telling you here and now, that McCain will win, and win big. Write it down, circle this date on your calendar, or bookmark this page so you can look back and say, "Wow, that Cold Hard Truth guy was right!"

Obama to GOP, "wah, boohoo, stop it, I'm telling!"

The man who would be the democrat presidential candidate needs to grow up and stop whining. If his wife is going to hit the campaign trail and speak on his behalf, then by golly she is going to be held accountable for her words. In his pitiful attempt to demonize the TN GOP, Obama has showed himself to be a cry baby. 
 
Once again a liberal democrat has layed wide open the hypocrisey of his party. The dems have made an art form of attacking the family members of republicans for years. That doesn't make it right, but it does make it the way things are done.
 
If this is his idea of running a campaign, I can only suggest things are going to get bad for Obama before November. If he lets the GOP goad him into complaining about everything they say or do, he'll end up looking and sounding foolish.

Sean Penn, a facist in the making

Sean Penn is the head judge at the Cannes Film Festival this year. In between publicly violating France's public smoking ban and telling Obama he will have to be a better man that he ever could, (huh?), he announced the criteria for what it will take to be selected as the winning film this year.
 
He made it known that it is impossible to seperate film from politics and promised the winning film would be a reflection of the current climate.
 
So, in essence the film makers need only make films for Penn's ego and political views, not paying audiences, if they want to win an award!
 
That's kind of the way things worked in nazi germany when Hitler was the guy to please! Wow, Sean has ascended from mediocre actor to budding facist a**hole!

Blue State Blues

Driving  in to work this morning I saw a bumper sticker on a truck that read, "Feeling BLUE in a RED state". 
(I live in the great, RED, state of Tennessee)
 
At the next stoplight I pulled up next to the truck and motioned for the guy to roll down his window. I smiled and said, "Hey, I saw your bumper sticker, uh......MOVE!".
 
Just then the light changed, he flipped me off and drove away. As I watched his gas guzzling, 3/4 ton, dual rear wheel truck dissapear in a cloud of ozone layer killing,  fossil fuel exhaust I wished I had asked him this question, "Say there mister white, southern democrat , do you intend to vote for Obama for president?". 
 
Of course I already knew the answer, this is the guy that Hillary has correctly identified as the democrat that will not vote for a man of color for president. This of course reinforces the fact that the democrats are the party of diversity and multiculturalism in words only.
