Random Thoughts on Obama's SOTU Speech

If Congress approved all the Obama Tax Increase, would he then bring down spending in line with tax revenue?  Cause taking 30% of millionare's income won't get you $1.6 Trillion.....

Does giving everyone a "fair shot" mean that the Government stops using tax payer money to make loans, grants and loan guarantees to "favored" companies?

Does anybody know what Warren Buffet actually pays his secretary?

Shouldn't the Government pay it's "fair share" by only accepting a pay and benefit scale equal to the mean private sector employee?

Why not promote a tax on all net worth over $10 million?  Then Buffet's secretary would (probably) not pay any more and Buffet would pay billions in taxes ....wouldn't that make him happy?

Shouldn't all government employees be forced to buy their Health Insurance on an exchange run by DC?

In 22 months businesses created over $3 million jobs...ok but you also ran up $5 trillion in debt over the same period, so the cost per job has been $333,330 per job.  You think that's a good ROI?

Does he not know that Capital Gains come from money invested with after tax income?

GM is back on top?  Not by market cap...Toyota $116B, $Volkswagon $56B, $Ford 49B, GM $39B  and GM still owes me some money!

If we're doing so well drilling our own oil, then why are gas prices double since 2008?

Why does he keep reminding us he's wealthy?

Does it really make sense to threaten to punish existing businesses for lowering their costs instead of creating an environment for new businesses to come and grow here?

We have to fund his new construction projects?  What happened to all the stimulus money?

I'd be happy to build consensus around "common sense ideas" if he actually had any....

He calls his plan the "Blueprint for An America Built to Last," .....Mao had a blueprint, Stalin had a blueprint, Reagan had a vision.......

Bottom line, more government, more taxes, more central planning by the same people that got us where we are today.....this economic system only worked on "The West Wing"

Dr. King was a Man of God

To say that the Reverends Wright, Sharpton and Jackson are men of God is to say that Bill Maher is a man of Faith. 

On a day when so many Black leaders will be standing up in front of large audiences and putting words in Dr. King's mouth, I wonder what he would be actually thinking today if he saw the current state of the movement he led.

 The most public and notable leaders Sharpton and Jackson, turned the movement into nothing more than a protection racket; extorting money from various business entities under the threat of being called racist or "a discriminator".  With great regularity they fail to keep Commandments #8 and #9 while calling on their followers to openly and brazenly break Commandment #10.  These are not leaders who seek to lift their people up to greater achievement but must in fact keep their people suppressed in a vicious cycle of poverty, chaos and hatred in order to continue to line their own pockets. 

Reverend Wrights weekly venom has been widely publicized and needs not be repeated here.  It is enough to note that a true man of God, would never utter these words or promote the hatred and envy he does to a people in need of real hope and direction.  The longer someone harbors thoughts of hatred and resentment for his or her situation, the lower the chances of that situation ever changing for the better.

Dr. King was a good shepherd.  He had a vision for his flock that they could live in peace and prosper in a country that was founded on the premise that all men were created and endowed by their creator with inalienable rights. His speeches were filled ideas of equal rights, equal justice and equal opportunity, not hate-filled damnation, entitlement and revenge. 

His enemies hated him, not because he was pointing fingers at them and spewing vicious rhetoric, but because he held up a mirror to the oppressors and showed them what they really were.  He did not seek revenge, he sought understanding, repentance and forgiveness so that future generations of American citizens would have this all behind them.  Like Moses, John the Baptist and Jesus he knew that he was on the side of righteousness and that with God, he could change the course of Man.

Of all the people who were taken from us too soon, Dr. Kings death was the most tragic in my lifetime, because the void he left has been filled with purveyor's of corruption, hatred and despair and his flock still wanders the desert.

May God Bless Dr. Martin Luther King Jr and those who today still share his dream.

Obama’s Kansas speech: some suspect facts - The Fact Checker - The Washington Post

This speech was so pathetic on so many levels.....

Really, who's mommy ever told them that if the work real hard and play by the rules, they may one day become part of the middle class? I'd wished OBAMA!'s mommy had encouraged that, we'd be far better off than we are today.

A larger, more activist government? Have you seen Europe lately? The model of OBAMA!'s vision of America is insolvent! Not broke, insolvent! They can only pay their bills by borrowing more even more money! Do you think their middle class is going to survive? The will expand their middle class by making them as poor as the lower class.

Is that what America should look like? 99% of us in poverty while the ruling class takes 18 day vacations in Hawaii?

This guy, along with everyone who votes with him, has to go...

What the Founders Thought About Democracy | Eric Peters Autos

"This is what democracy looks like!" Everywhere for a year we heard this in Wisconsin as protestors converged on the Capital in Madison and Occupy Wall Street ramped up their eat the rich campaign against Capitalism. And they were right! That IS what democracy looks like, mob rule, a majority ganging up on a minority to impose their will without regard to the rights of those on whom the imposition is placed. In a democracy, private property rights cannot exist, they will always be subjegated to the will of the mob that desires to confiscate them.

This is why, America was not constituted as a democracy. The Founders understood the flaws of democracy and so created a Republic based on the concept of private property and the right of the States over the will of the Federal Government. Unfortunately, both parties rarely speak of the republic anymore and in fact the 2 party system has taken us further and further away from the idea of America. Today we have liberal governors who gladly abdicate their State's sovereignty to the Fed, allowing a Senator from Delaware to dictate how the State of Texas must conduct its affairs and worse, an unelected bureacrat in the NLRB to prevent a private company from opening a plant in the State of South Carolina. Even George W. Bush felt it was his mission to spread democracy across the Middle East, so how's that worked out so far?

Yes, this is what democracy looks like....and we better eradicate it from our republic soon because it sucks!

Senate To Vote On Legislation That Allows U.S. Military to Detain Americans Without Charge or Trial

It is unbelievable to me that a man who would run for President on the Republican ticket would co-author such a dispicable piece of legislation. John McCain is an outright enemy to the American citizen, he would willingly destroy your freedoms and open the government up for more abuses and for what? How long did it take before the Patriot Act was turned on American citizens with Napolitano naming people with Ron Paul bumper stickers as potential home grown terrorists. Do you really think there will be any sort of check once this becomes law?

So many people call Obama the Manchurian candidate, but what does this say about McCain? This man has worked tirelessly to make sure that a permanent ruling class gets even more deeply entrenched in D.C. If this man has any use for the Constitution, it most likely occurs after a bowel movement.

This is another example of over-reach, just like Sarbane's, Obamacare, Dodd-Frank and others, it seeks to establish power over the many under the guise of protecting us against the few. It must be stopped before it can reach the floor more a simple majority vote, there are too many Scott Brown's out there who will find a way to justify a yay vote.

The Real Reason the Occupiers Where Cleared Out

Despite John Stewart's ongoing effort to equate OWS to the Tea Party movement, America isn't buying...

Recent polls indicate an increasing unfavorable opinion and the news of violence both within the camps as well as against police and citizens as well as the vile behavior has necessitated the Obama campaign to call off the camp-outs.

Like an offensive unit breaking from the huddle, the Mayors of almost all of the major occupy cities moved in concert to shut down the camps citing reasons that have existed for weeks while they took no such action.

So what's different....?

Analysis: Romney stronger than ever in GOP race - Yahoo! News

The mainstream media and the DNC are "all in" for a Romney - Obama Presidential race.

No other candidate fits Obama's strategy better than Romney. For months now the President has railed against (Implied to be White) GOP Millionaires and Billionaires who refuse to pay their fare share to helping our nation create the jobs (union and non-tax-paying government jobs of course) we all need to get things done.

Here is Romney, the poster child for Obama's straw man who also happens to garner little support from Tea Party activists and who cannot run against Obamacare since his own healthcare plan was the template for Obamacare. Obama couldn't ask for a better opponent....

Occupy entertainment | Conservative Outpost

Follow up from yesterdays entry identifying who these people are and what they represent.

Bottom line:

Tea Party = Limited Government and lower taxes for all

OWS = Expanding Government and higher taxes for the productive class

Personally given the situation in Greece, I vote for the Tea party model...

Why the Left Hates Chritianity

For so long, the Left has made a concerted effort to have the 10 Commandments banned from every public setting. They claim that it is offensive to those who follow other religions or no religion. But I believed for a long time that the real reason for doing this is to remove religious conscience from our citizens.

Without religious conscience, any action can become rationalized as long as it can be framed as being for "the common good". Abortion for the purpose of preventing another "unwanted child" from victimization can be seen as good. Theft of one's property can be rationalized through the tax code as long as that property is used for the common good.

The article below is another example of how elimination of the 10th Commandment can much more easily lead us down the path of Socialism...

Occupy rally shuts down shipping port indefinitely - Yahoo! News

Watch out folks, Glenn Beck was right! As painful as it is to listen to his show, he has been predicting this for months. It would start out as peaceful demonstrations and eventually lead to violence. The shutdown of this port is simply an intermediate step in the process. There is no doubt in my mind that the puppet masters of this movement have ties to the Obama administration. The roll out of his "jobs" bill, his anti-rich campaign and this "sudden, grassroots uprising" are too coincidental to have not been part of a well - coordinated campaign.

Why now, a year before the elections? Simple, given the disastrous condition of our economy, Obama simply cannot win re-election. So he must find a way to suspend elections to remain in power, nothing short of far-flung civil unrest would suffice to allow him to do this. Will it work? Who is to say, when I listen to the absolute Marxist rhetoric coming out of the mouths of most of these useful idiots camped out across the country I fear that there may be enough of them to do a considerable amount of damage when they are joined by public union members.

For years the leftists have fortified their ownership of our education system; seeing a sign reading "Death to Capitalism" in Oakland is evidence of how effective they have become at brainwashing our youth. Nothing that I have seen in the last 20 years even resembles true capitalism yet they have been able to place blame on the concept without even understanding what it is and the protestors follow without question. These are the things you would see it a Hugo Chavez rally, yet it is taking place here.

The enemies of America see this as their best chance to push us over the edge, they have the money and the numbers to do it if the real 99%'ers don't respond quickly and decisively. The problem I see is that the real 99%'ers don't really know who the enemy is. "Corporate Greed" is such a seductive term for confusing the issue.

United Fascist States of America

If you're still stuck in this Republican versus Democrat game, then you are way behind the learning curve. Obama is just using the same ideas following the collapse of 2008 tha Hitler used following the economic collapse of Germany following WW1. Take the opportunity to seize power and control from the citizens and create a more dependent state that will have to submit to the Central authority.

Europe Is Warning Us - Victor Davis Hanson - Townhall Conservative

Victor Davis Hanson makes a point that I have been saying for years....what is so progressive about Socialism? Their is no progress, the masses are equally poor and a permanent ceiling has been placed between them and the aristocracy that rules over them like a sick monarchy. It doesn't take a genius to see that Western Europe is dying, yet Obama and the left cling to their ideaology like they accuse white folks of clinging to their guns and religion.
