Dear President Obama,

It’s been a week and everything is still the same. Where is all the change that you promised? Perhaps it was a campaign slogan or perhaps you just can’t deliver. Whatever it is, I think that perhaps there is a better solution.

As a conservative, otherwise known as a patriot, I had high hopes that perhaps you weren’t the Marxist that some claimed.   As an American, I prayed that perhaps you could bring our nation’s political divide to an end. To the contrary, we are now more polarized than ever.  

I know that we thought we could work it out, but it just hasn’t happened that way.   Our two ideological sides of America cannot, and will not ever agree on what is right, so let’s just end it on friendly terms. We can smile, chalk it up to irreconcilable differences, and go our separate ways.

We begin by equitably dividing up the country.   Certainly we can sit down and come to an agreement on what is fair. Obviously we start by giving you Michigan and Illinois because your fellow liberals have been the model of efficiency in each of those states.  Don't worry about the cold, I'm sure your global warming will take care of that. We will take the south since you never really liked us anyway. 

After we divvy up the land, the rest should be simple since liberals and conservatives have such distinct and disparate tastes. We don’t like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU. Since you hate guns and war, we’ll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA, and the military. You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore, and Rosie O’Donnell (You are, however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them) …

We’ll keep the capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart, and Wall Street. You can have your beloved homeless, gangbangers, homeboys, hippies, welfare moms, single moms, transvestites and illegal aliens. We’ll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO’s, and rednecks. We’ll keep the bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood.  We’ve got dibs on family values, since you never really cared for them anyway. You can have gay marriage and the pedophiles at NAMBLA. 

You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we’ll retain the right to invade and destroy any place that threatens our way of life. You can have the peaceniks, and war protesters.  Since you don't like Guantanamo Bay, we'll take the property and turn it into a resort.  You can have the occupants and maybe give them free room and board in the Lincoln Bedroom.  But remember, when they start blowing things up, don't come crying to us because all we'll say is "I told you so".   Well also go ahead and keep Israel as an ally and you can start a dialogue with your pals in North Korea, Venezuela and Cuba.

We’ll keep our Judeo-Christian values and In God We Trust on our currency. You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism, Jane Fonda and Shirley McClain. You can also have the U.N. but we will no longer be paying the bill.

We’ll keep the SUVs, pickup trucks, and oversized luxury cars. You can take every Subaru station wagon you can find.  You can give everyone healthcare, if you can find any practicing doctors. We’ll continue to believe healthcare is a luxury and not a right. We’ll keep The Battle Hymn of the Republic and the National Anthem. I’m sure you’ll be happy to substitute Imagine, I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing, Kum Ba Ya, or We Are the World.

We’ll keep English as our official language and you can have Ebonics or whatever it is you’re teaching the younger generation these days.   We’ll practice trickle down economics, and you can give trickle up poverty your best shot.  Since it often so offends you we’ll keep our history, our name, our Constitution and our flag.

In the spirit of friendly parting, I’ll bet you ANWR and 100 offshore oil rigs which one of us will need whose help in 15 years.

Wow, just two short weeks until the Messiah parts the skies with peace on earth and goodwill towards man. No more Hamas rocket attacks on innocent Isreali kids, no more gate crashing illegals killing innocent Americans, no more Islamic fascists turning airplanes into projectiles.   The peace and harmony will make me forever grateful to those who had the foresight to bow down to the chosen one. 

Of course we know that none of this will happen as the risk of violence continues to increase in direct correlation to our coddling of terrorists, who for those who attend government schools, are radical Muslims.   Yes, they look different and they dress different, just don’t let your local government academician or bureaucrat hear you saying that aloud. 

Along with this risk of violence abroad will be the increased risk at home, as our intelligence agencies are gutted in the dawn of the Obamanation.   Terrorists and illegals will be given free reign to do as they please to the American public and those who have been basking in the sun at Club Gitmo will now be entitled to their day in our kangaroo courts, where they will be released on their own recognizance to build bombs and slash throats to their hearts content.

If they are lucky, they can sidle up to the trough and maybe get their own terrorist bailout. I mean, we are only at one trillion dollars for this so called stimulus package. Why not give away a little more to our enemies to blow up bridges and roads that, according to liberals, are in great need of repair anyway. Surely we would save a lot on demolition costs and we wouldn’t even have to deal with union road crews who seemingly just stand around and do nothing.

One trillion dollars! Can you even fathom that amount? Did you know that it would take 31,500 years to count to a trillion one second at a time?   Did you know that one trillion dollars in pennies would weigh 310 million tons, which is about the combined weight of all the pregnant illegals between East LA and El Paso.   One trillion dollars in pennies would rise 98.6 million miles into the sky, more than the distance from the earth to the sun. One trillion dollars in pennies laid side by side would be more than 14,000 square miles which is larger than Delaware AND Hawaii, the purported birthplace of the messiah, combined. 

One trillion dollars will break the back of our nation and nobody seems to care, probably because the average government educated moron lacks the intellectual wherewithal to realize the damage that it will inflict. After all, it was these same morons that gave rise to Obama, as he spread his wings and soared amidst the columns of the ancient Greek temple.  

Keep in mind that this trillion dollars is on top of trillions of dollars in debt from the failed socialist security ponzi scheme. It is on top of medicare and Medicaid. It is on top of the inevitable trillions that will be tied up in the government takeover and ultimate destruction of our healthcare system.  

The kind of debt that gave rise to entire economic conundrum we are currently in will pale in comparison to the debt that the government is going to put on the backs of our children, their children and their children’s children. This is the kind of debt that no nation can possible survive.  

Thomas Paine once said that “Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one.” To describe our government today as anything but intolerable would be an understatement of epic proportions.   We are witnessing, for the first time in our history, a government that is truly drunk with power and is using every means possible to silence the truth while passing a sentence of death on our nation.

Government schools are raping the minds of our youth while the media fills the airwaves with lies and distortions in lock step with their liberal allies in Washington who seek to undermine the foundation upon which our nation was founded.   Liberal special interests are working in unison with the courts towards the obsolescence of real marriage, American culture and private property. Liberals in congress have an agenda calling for the banning of free speech and limiting the right to bear arms to only criminals, illegal aliens and terrorists.  

The stage is set for some really bad things to happen to our nation unless people wake up from their nanny state entitlement stupor.   The party is over and it’s time for those of us with any intelligence to make a difference.  

Most certainly, for those of us over thirty, indifference would be the easy way out. Let our children deal with the inevitable pain where suffering and likely violence will arise out of the congressional negligence that is occurring today.   But, to quote Thomas Paine one more time, “If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, so that my children may have peace.”

Our founding fathers lived by these words.   While they were forced to pick up guns, against the will of the ignorant and uninformed way back when, we are not there (yet). We have the ability to throw Congress out of office and it is something that must be done in 2010.   Sure, there will be damage done to the fiber of our nation in the interim by the careless, reckless and indifferent liberals who have turned our nation in a banana republic where Senate seats are for sale, judges are for hire and government contracts depend not on cost or benefit but rather who you know.   

If the GOP were smart, which they have proven not to be over the past eight years, they will seize this opportunity.   They will point out each and every aspect of the culture of corruption, hypocrisy and sedition that are the foundation of the modern day Democrats.  

Oh Boy, do I feel safe now. As Islamic fascists regroup to hatch a plan on what to blow up next, the Obamamessiah goes and picks Leon Panetta as head of the CIA. Seriously, he should have gone to Wal-Mart and picked a cashier who would likely have more experience in espionage than Panetta who served as Bill Clinton’s chief of staff and whose biggest decision in life was where to hide the blue dress after Bill made a mess of it.

Coming on the heels of two illegal Senators being installed by the corrupt Democrat machine, this could be an even bigger mess for the chosen one, who was supposed to part the skies and walk on water. 

Today marks the beginning of the Congressional session, as Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and the rest of their sedition brigade head to Washington to seize more of our money and usurp more of our rights. I guess the big question is whether or not they will be able to get an approval rating of more than single digits. 

The first item on the agenda is this so called stimulus package that will cost the taxpayers somewhere in the range of $1 trillion dollars.   Included in this stimulus package is a lot of pork, including snow making equipment for Minnesota. As if they needed more snow, but then again when the idiot portion of the electorate votes for Al Franken what do you expect.  My guess is there is even a bailout for the Somali pirates, who by way of a long and sordid family tree are probably distant cousins of B. Hussein Obama himself.

Did you hear that B. Hussein is going to take the oath of office and use his entire name. Yes, the name that Americans were banned from uttering is now going to be broadcast on prime time for his coronation as the latest winner of American Idiot.   I wonder how Ann Coulter feels about that. If you recall she was repudiated for emphasizing his middle name. Perhaps now the Obama voters will realize what damage they have inflicted upon our nation. Then again, most of them don’t even know that 9/11 occurred because it wasn’t reported on Inside Edition, their main source for current events.

Speaking of Ann Coulter, she has been banned from NBC. Yes, banned. Along with transfats, charcoal grilles and fireplaces, the liberal elitists now want to ban Coulter because of her new book, Guilty, which decries media bias. OK, so if the media isn’t biased why don’t they have Coulter on to discuss the media lies, distortions and treasonous agenda that they put forth.   It’s kind of like Obama’s continued refusal to make public his purported birth certificate that would put to rest whether or not he is really an American citizen.

All I can say is it is going to be a very interesting few years.   My suggestion; get as much money out of the country as you possibly can. Explore other places to live because the government has written a check that they can’t cash and when it comes time to pay the fiddler all hell is going to break loose in a way not seen in the history of our republic.   For that you can thank your local liberal.

Welcome to 2009 and a call from liberals to raise the gas tax by 50%.   State and federal governments already receive as much as seventy cents on the gallon, compared to a paltry eight cent profit seen by Big Oil, perpetually in government’s cross hairs for their purported excess profits. 

The federal tax alone is eighteen cents, with the remainder of what can only be described as legalized thievery coming from the states.   Now the feds are seeking to impose another ten to twelve cent increase, with recommendations that states do the same.  

Leave it to some unaccountable bureaucrats in Washington to see taxation as the only solution to decreased revenues coming on the heels of decreased driving that began with gas approached five bucks a gallon this past summer, which was largely due to decreased supply as the result of failure liberal policies that limits domestic oil exploration and production. 

Rather than looking to steal more from Americans, already struggling in difficult economic times, caused by liberal abuses of power such as the Community Reinvestment Act and corruption at Fannie and Freddie, how about giving us some real solutions. 

If more money is needed for roads, then find it elsewhere. How much cash is being used to subsidize education, healthcare and welfare for illegal aliens? How much of the ill gotten gains of government is being used for bridges to nowhere or union bailouts? The waste of government is endless, yet rather than fix what they have created they seek to steal more from us? 

It’s utterly amazing that they are doing exactly what we would go to jail for.   If we were to demand money from another under the threat of a loss of life or liberty, we would be held accountable.   Yet government remains immune, having a pass to seize as much of OUR money as they see fit from OUR pocketbooks and if we object, they will punish us with a loss of freedom and liberty.

Way back when some folks got a little upset about this type of abuse, which was far less egregious than what we are witnessing today.   Tea was dumped in the Boston Harbor, muskets were procured and a few folks like Adams, Washington, Jefferson and Franklin brought about change. Not the kind of change being promised by the chosen one, which really is just proving to be more of the same, but real change that we could count on. Well, at least we could count on it until liberals got into power.  Maybe a more sensible approach to getting more funds into the government coffers would be to sell liberals, instead of arms, to our enemies abroad. Now there’s some change I could live with.

Happy Kwanzaa, whatever the heck that is.  To give you a little history lesson, this supposed holiday was invented by Ron Karenga in 1966, when it was branded as a black alternative to Christmas.   Karenga, a convicted felon and former professor of black studies at Cal State Long Beach,  postulated seven principles: unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity and faith, each of which gets its day during Kwanzaa week, which begins today.

Along with this racist holiday, Karenga devised a flag of black nationalism and a pledge: "We pledge allegiance to the red, black, and green, our flag, the symbol of our eternal struggle, and to the land we must obtain; one nation of black people, with one G-d of us all, totally united in the struggle, for black love, black freedom, and black self-determination." Yes, I am most certain Karenga and Jeremiah Wright were cut from the same cloth.

What all Americans must realize is that there is no part of Kwanzaa that is not fraudulent. The term comes from matunda yakwanza, a Swahili term for first fruit.   The last time I checked, Swahili was an East African tongue which has little relevance for black Americans who are descendents of slaves that were generally taken from west Africa. The cultural gap between west and east Africa is as dramatic as comparing Indiana to Indonesia. 

While Kwanzaa purports to celebrate a harvesting ritual, it is somewhat suspect that this would occur in December, a time when harvesting just does not occur.   Kwanzaa supposedly stands for human dignity but how does this reconcile with the common practices in Africa of female circumcision, stoning and polygamy? Kwanzaa celebrates corn, a crop that is indigenous to Mexico, not Africa.   Maybe Karenga, or the followers of this made up holiday could explain the celebration of an Ur-African culture that doesn't even exist in a continent where rival tribes slaughter each other for game.   

The truth is that Kwanzaa is just another excuse by its inventor to promote Marxism.   It has been embraced by liberals, who share a similar ideology and promote this fiction in an attempt to garner support for their nanny state multicultural agenda.

Bill Clinton went so far as to take a hiatus from messing up blue dresses to sign the Kwanzaa proclamation claiming that "The symbols and ceremony of Kwanzaa, evoking the rich history and heritage of African Americans, remind us that our nation draws much of its strength from our diversity."

The truth is that Kwanzaa is a sham. It is a made up holiday with no historical significance. It is a celebration by racists and black seperatists who seek to divide our nation using using fancy terms and outlandish costumes to promote redistribution of wealth. It is a call for blacks to celebrate Marxist concepts that have resulted in failure the world over, just as they are proving to do in our very own nation.  

As snow falls from Malibu to Houston one would think that the cries from the global warming alarmists would be silenced with the fact based reality that their silly notions rivaled only by the claims of the flat earth society. 

But as is usually the case with liberals, they will make excuses and use the courts to get their way, even when their way defies all semblance of common sense.   Similar to the Franken Coleman election in Minnesota where actual Election Day results don’t matter when fabricated ballots and activist judges can be used to set those aside in the name of advancing liberalism.  Just as liberals are using every means possible, legal or illegal, to certify Franken the winner, they will do the same to brainwash the American sheep of the plight of the planet. 

While evidence continues to mount that global warming is nothing more than a hoax brought about by anti-capitalist environazis, there are those on the left who still fail to see the forest through the trees. One of the factually challenged zealots would be none other than the messiah himself, who won election on the promise that he would bring about falling sea levels and global harmony.

In showing his true colors of economic and environmental illiteracy, B. Hussein Obama has named John Holdren as his Science Advisor.  Aside from the fact that this guy is a radical left wing zealot let me pose a simple question; why should the American taxpayers be paying for yet another unaccountable, incompetent bureaucrat?

Even the extreme left wing BBC announced this year that 2008 is the coldest year of the 21^st century and validated the fact that average mean temperatures have steadily declined since 1998.   Since these facts seemingly contradict Al Gore’s science fiction film, the liberal enviro wackos decided that they would rename the cyclical nature of weather as climate change. That’s great, now they have all their bases covered.   Snow in San Diego, climate change.   An 80 degree January day in Minneapolis, climate change.   This is perfect for liberals who are measured solely on intent as opposed to results.   What better way to achieve their redistributionist wealth agenda than to create a myth that nobody can debunk.

Unfortunately for hard working Americans with common sense, this will hit us in the pocket book.   The entire global warming/climate change ponzi scheme was created to simply give the government unfettered access to seize more of our earnings. 

For those of you who actually think that global warming exists, I have a bridge to sell you.   For those who think that climate change is some type of manmade phenomenon, look at the facts which are that history provided five distinctly warmer periods than we are witnessing today, including the 12^th century when much of Greenland was arable.   For those who like to blame SUV’s, fireplaces and charcoal grilles what’s your excuse for Pluto and Mars, where climate change is also occurring.   Once again, facts trump fiction which is precisely why liberals are going to use their new found power to enact the unFairness Doctrine which is designed to silence those of us who dare to tell the truth.

Throughout the pages of history, censorship and intimidation have been used to silence those who fought freedom.   Be it Stalin, Hitler or Mao, understand that what liberals are doing today is no different.   Sure, they may not want to kill you but that doesn’t mean they don’t seek to take away your economic and individual liberties.  Ask yourself, is it better to live on your knees or die on your feet?   I think our founding fathers provided that answer, which sadly is no longer discussed in our government schools where the concepts of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness have taken a back seat to nanny state entitlementalism and political correctness.

Bennett based his comments on this years ACT scores in which half of the cities 64 schools placed in the bottom 1% nationwide.   Of course the Democrat controlled school board claimed that it was because of the districts large minority enrollment, most of whom come from low income families and have a limited proficiency of the English language.  

Perhaps if the schools were teaching instead of making excuses their results would be a little better.  Both Cleveland and Milwaukee schools face the same challenges of poverty, broken homes and limited language proficiency, yet their students perform infinitely better because they have instituted school voucher programs where parents, not unaccountable government bureaucrats, select the schools that best meet the needs of their children.   

It appears that as we dig deeper into the Obama cabinet, we are starting to see his true colors show.   Even the messiah himself recognizes not only the failure of government schools, but the institutional racism that is so prevent, as he is sending his children to the elitist Sidwell Friends private school.   This type of liberal hypocrisy never ceases to amaze me. Imagine what would happen if our elected officials were required to send their children to government schools. Do you think we’d see condoms in the lunch line? Hell no, we’d see Bibles in the classroom and teachers spanking kids who misbehave.  

Once again we are seeing proof that liberalism always fails.   The reason for this failure is because liberals are measured only on intentions, not on productivity or results. Liberals have an inherent aversion to producing anything, other than rules, regulations and bureaucracy that inhibits results. 

The good news is that liberalism has always failed and will always fail; the bad news is that things will get worse before they get better as the general public, brainwashed by the mainstream media, continues to wallow in their nanny state stupor.  One day soon they will wake up and realize that their headaches are nothing more than a Democrat induced economic hangover brought about by the Community Reinvestment Act that busted the financial industry and corrupt unions that have brought the Big 3 to their knees.    

There is no question we can get through this, but to do so we must get back to our conservative roots of hard work, family values, rugged individualism and self discipline that made our country great.   We must all spread the word, be it the word of the Lord or the word of the Constitution, as both are equally important in the salvation of our nation. 

The media is spending an inordinate amount of time telling America that the Republican party is dead, but what they overlook is the fact that conservatism is alive and well and moving away from that message is what has hurt the GOP.   For anyone who doubts me, catch the Sarah Palin tour next time she is in town. She and other true conservatives such as Bobby Jindal, Mike Pence and Tom Coburn are the future of America.   

Truly great leaders bring people to them; they don’t waver on their own positions.   As the Republican Party has moved to the center, they have allowed the Democrats to move further left, which is precisely why the GOP has failed. Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher, two of the greatest leaders of the conservative movement, didn’t waffle at the behest of the media. Rather, they conveyed their message in a way that we all understood and, Democrat or Republican, couldn’t get behind fast enough.  

Gay schools and tasty condoms aren’t the direction that America needs or wants.   Coddling illegal aliens and outlawing Christmas doesn’t go over well in small town U.S.A. Undermining our Constitution, banning free speech and the right to defend our loved ones will not be tolerated, yet it is the goal of liberals.  Since the mainstream media won’t convey the message, it is up to you and I and our failure to execute in this mission would be tantamount to our forefather’s laying down their arms and surrendering to the British more than two hundred years ago.

The economic conundrum should come as no surprise to any American. Rather, it should be viewed as the inevitable result of confiscatory taxation and bureaucratic regulation that has strangled the capitalist intent of our forefathers.   Way back when, a few folks gathered to throw some tea into Boston Harbor to protest government excess that was far less egregious than we are witnessing today.  

While unaccountable government officials decided “what is best” for you and I, we are commanded to sit idly by as Wall Street and the Big Three get cash that is seemingly spent on executive outings and corporate jets.   Wouldn’t it be nice if someone inside the beltway actually recognized that the solution to the problem isn’t a solution from the top down, but rather from the bottom up?   Perhaps that person may exist in the form of Texas Representative Louis Gohmert who is proposing a two month tax holiday for all Americans. 

Mark my words, this will get no publicity from the Treason Times, AP Obama or the Clinton News Net, but it’s getting some attention from yours truly. According to American Solutions, an organization founded by former Speaker New Gingrich, Americans pay $101.6 billion per month in personal income tax and $65.5 billion per month in FICA tax. Under Gohmert’s proposed plan these taxes would not be paid during January and February, 2009.   This is money that would stay in the hands of the people who earned it in the first place and no better than any government bureaucrat how to spend it.   For less than half the cost of the current bailout proposal, this would likely have exponentially more impact on the economy. 

Will this happen? Don’t count on it because liberals in congress will do their best to muzzle any word of this plan, just as they plan to muzzle your right to free speech in the coming session. Remember, liberals are all about power and control and if they were to let Americans see how much money is actually being seized out of their paychecks it could lead to an all out taxpayer revolt. Then again, maybe that’s not such a bad thing. 

Perhaps this should be taken one step further.   How about we repeal the insidious 16^th Amendment that permitted the government to steal money from our paychecks in the first place.   Just as Americans are being forced to do without as the result of government irresponsibility, maybe it’s time for them to do without.   Just how many ridiculous social programs, bridges to nowhere or butterfly farms on the moon could we do without? Just how many union jobs could we axe in federal, state and local governments that contribute absolutely nothing to our society?  

My suggestion is that you immediately write your Congressional Representative and tell them to support the Gohmert plan.   Tell them to nix the idea of a silly stimulus and their $50 million dollar mailings to advise us that a check is in the mail.   We need something that actually matters, like the right to keep what is rightfully ours to begin with. 

So where is all this change that we heard so much about?   Didn’t the messiah promise to end politics as usual? If I recall correctly, he was going to part the sea, walk on the water and build an ark that could withstand the Wall Street tsunami as it crashed ashore.

Perhaps the change was Rahm Emanuel.   Maybe it was Reich, Rubin or Podesta. Perhaps it is Hillary Clinton, our new Secretary of State.   I’m beginning to think that the only Clintonite not present in the Obama cabinet is Monica Lewinsky. But hey, at least Michele can once again be proud as she dons the famous blue dress. Just make sure to keep Bill away.  

Yes, this is the change that we can count on. More of the same.   The same lies, the same deceipt and the same failed policies.   For you liberals out there, my guess is that the Obama strategy on Iraq and Afghanistan is going to be EXACTLY the same as W’s. Want proof, Bush appointee Robert Gates has accepted an invitation to stay on serving as Secretary of Defense. You see, now that it is Obama's war surrender is no longer an option.   I wonder when it became fashionable to be a hypocrite?

At least those liberals who wanted change may now be starting to regret their vote.   They listened to the soaring rhetoric and for a while actually thought that the messiah could turn water into wine only to discover that he turned it into four more years of a Clinton administration.   And here we thought that the silver lining of an Obama victory marked the end of the Clinton regime.  

No such luck. In fact, if Bill Clinton wasn’t disbarred he’d be a shoe in for the Supreme Court.   My guess is Hillary wants him as far away from the beltway as possible, so look for an ambassadorship to Thailand where the women are cheap and easy.   Maybe Al Gore can take over the National Weather Service. At the rate Obama is appointing former Clintonistas, he’s going to run out of bodies soon. Maybe he can appoint Vince Foster in abstentia.  

As predicted, there is no change. There will be no change. There was never a plan for any change. All in all, the whole change bit was just a lie to bait the young, the dumb and the uninformed into voting for an empty suit.   Now that the suit got elected, he had to actually find people with enough experience to fill the void that will be in the Oval Office.  

In keeping with his pledge of more change we can count on, B. Hussein has announced that Eric Holder, another former Clintonista, will be his attorney general.   You may recall that Holder, then assistant Attorney General under Janet Reno, was the guy who signed off on Clinton’s pardon paperwork for fugitive financier Marc Rich.   Let’s see if perky little Katie and the folks at the Treason Times pick up on this one. 

To show how dumb the average Obama voter is, one needs to look no further than the recent Zogby poll which targeted Obama voters on Election Day. In this poll only 32% of Obama supporters knew that Democrats controlled Congress.   Only 2% could accurately identify questionable associations of the Obama.   Of the twelve questions asked only 54% could answer more than half correctly.   I wonder if summing up 1 + 1 was one of those questions? 

Of course Zogby is now under fire for this poll by the mainstream media because it does nothing short of exposing Obama supporters as generally being young, dumb and uninformed.   Arguably it makes the case for requiring voters to pass an IQ test before being allowed to cast a ballot.   But in the eyes of the media it hurts the image of their messiah who sheppard’s his flock like the blind leading the blind. 

None of this should come as a surprise.   We had a year’s worth of media coverage where not one question was asked of Obama, while Sarah Palin was criticized for the color of her lipstick. There was not one journalistic investigation into Obama’s citizenship, his illegal aunt, his terrorists associations or his racist church yet we had several journalists question whether McCain was really a POW. Joe Biden and plagiarism, forget it.   Sarah Palin’s husbands DUI twenty years ago; front page news.  

Now we have four more years of a media that is openly in the tank for their candidate.   If terrorists strike our homeland, it will be George Bush’s fault.   The economic collapse caused by the Democrat Community Reinvestment Act, George Bush’s fault.   Just wait, before it is all said and done the greedy unions will have no culpability in the demise of GM.   I guess the question is what is a greater concern, the threat to free speech posed by Obama’s agenda or the death of investigative journalism in America? 

My advice, if you don’t have a gun get one.   As I watch the horrific Obama appointments and his call for a civil security force we may as well be watch Der Fuhrer.   To think that we don’t live in dangerous times is like thinking the Democrats aren’t in charge of Congress; they are and we do. 

Our Constitution may not be able to withstand the inevitable challenges the Obama administration will present and most certainly the abominable jurists he will appoint.   We have a candidate who openly called for increased taxes, yet he got elected. His agenda means that unemployment will rise, yet he got elected.   Interest rates and inflation will rear their ugly heads, but the voters who by a 2 to 1 margin can’t name the Vice President elected Obama. In my own polling we have voters who by a margin of 73-27% can’t tell you why they voted for him but still voted for him.   These are voters who by a margin of 86-14% can’t name one single legislative accomplishment but put him in office anyway.   Then we have the voters who by a 96-4% margin elected Obama because of the color of his skin without even questioning whether their vote was for someone of Muslim descent or black descent. As Forrest Gump once said, “Stupid is as Stupid does.” Meet Stupid, you 2008 Obama electorate.

Dear President Elect Obama,

I am puzzled. For the past two years, during the longest presidential campaign in history, I have heard about how you would help me pay my mortgage and fill my car with gasoline.   You parted for the waters for the great unwashed with promises of everything from free healthcare to cable television, yet I still have a pile of bills in front of me.

Your election has proven to be a disappointment not known since realizing that the Brady Bunch house was an architectural fraud.   Like you, Mike Brady was a messiah of sorts. He was sold to Americans an ingenious architect who brought together three boys and three girls who lived happily ever after in a home that he designed. 

Perhaps you can explain how one can walk in the front door, go to the left, through a kitchen and into a family room and make another left and be in the back yard.   Only someone like Steven Spielberg, or the guy who writes your speeches, could design a home where the upstairs bedrooms are suspended over thin air.  

Maybe I just don’t know where you are coming from, but your campaign reminds me of the A-Team, where people drive off cliffs, get shot, cars explode but no one ever dies.   The show, like your campaign, used smoke, mirrors and stunts to make everyone feel good at the end of the hour, only this isn’t TV and it isn’t an hour. It’s our lives and four years of inevitable economic disaster. 

You’re healthcare mandate is a lot like Wylie Coyote falling off the cliff and smashing into the earth below, only those impacted won’t be around to see another scene with Road Runner.   In most respects your presidency has already jumped the shark before Reverend Wright has even had a chance to swear you into office.  And swear he will; remember, in your world it’s not God Bless America, its G-D America. 

In a mere three days since your sheep with the help of ACORN "elected" you we have seen the stock market tumble and job losses reach a fourteen year high.   New car sales are at a 25 year low, a recession is imminent and your plan to mandate unionization at stores like Wal-Mart is going to drive even more jobs overseas and more Americans to the unemployment line.   But for some strange reason you think a tax increase on the very people who create jobs will be the magic elixir.  

My suggestion is that between now and January 20^th you go and find an old Delorean, install a flux capacitor and fly back in time to 1985, when we actually had a competent leader who understood national defense and economic prosperity. Pick up a copy of the New York Times before they sold out our nation and read the business section.   Learn about free market economics and the evils of communism.   Perhaps then you will be fit to lead our nation without your misguided notion of government being the solution, because it’s not. It is the ultimate evil and the sole cause of each and every economic catastrophe facing our nation today.

P.S. – I’m still waiting for the money to pay my mortgage and fill my gas tank. 

Perhaps you recall Barack Obama’s pledge to be a new kind of leader, a man of change, out with the old Washington politics and in with a new spirit of bipartisanship.   In his first move as President elect he has appointed Rahm Emanuel as his Chief of Staff.   For those not familiar with Emanuel, he was one of the leading Clinton henchmen. He is a Chicago political thug, partisan hack and one of the most vile human beings to ever walk the face of the earth.   His most famous quote is that Republicans can go FU#! themselves.   He epitomizes everything that we came to detest about liberal politics, described by fellow Democrat Paul Begala as a cross between a “hemorrhoid and a toothache” and how he is Obama’s mouthpiece.

What’s it been, two days and two I told you so moments? At this rate we should look for William Ayers to become Secretary of State, Louis Farrakhan to become Secretary of Defense,  Jeremiah Wright to become Secretary of Education and Michele Obama to be head of the Proud to be an American movement.    

Chicago has long been known as the gutter of politics where crime, corruption and intimidation are the norm.   To those who wanted change so badly, I hope this is what you were anticipating.   Washington will become more partisan than ever with the liberal congress taking Tuesday’s election as a mandate to govern from the far, far left.   They will be so extreme that their agenda will make Karl Marx look like Ronald Reagan. 

As proof of this, you need look no further than a report in Reuter’s yesterday where liberals are calling upon the government to seize all 401k’s.   This sinister plot would involve taking your retirement and placing it in the Social Security Trust, which has already been bankrupted by Democrats.   Your investment would be limited to 5% and your annual return would be capped at 3%. To the economically illiterate amongst us, don’t fall for this charade. Stock investments are a long term proposition.   The average annual return over the past 100 years is 8%, just as it will be for the next hundred years. The government knows this; you may not because chances are you have been indoctrinated by this same government whose sole purpose in education is to rape the minds of our youth.  

If the government is going to steal your retirement, what else will they seek to steal?   What about your home, your business, your cottage or your car?  They already have free speech and your right to defend your loved ones in the cross hairs.   If ever there was a time to be vigilant, that time is now.   The most dangerous days in American history are now upon us and there is nothing we can do about it for the 767 days. Hopefully this is enough time to wake up the sheep in our midst who will otherwise be led to slaughter by the very people they put in office.

Now that the dust has settled and the Bolshevik’s have vacated Chicago’s Grant Park, how do you feel? I’m actually feeling pretty good, not about the outcome of the election nor the realization that Obama won’t be paying my mortgage, but rather about the future of our great nation.   I wonder if Michele Obama feels this good as the stupor of euphoria wears off and the lines of voters gather to collect on promises that simply can’t be fulfilled.

Democrats now control both houses of Congress, but this is no change.   Sure, their majorities have grown, but they are at least not supermajorities as many pundits had anticipated. The executive branch is now in the hands of the most liberal president ever elected who will be in a dire predicament if he doesn’t appease his far left constituents and power brokers. But to do that he will alienate those to whom he promised change, resulting in an inevitably cataclysmic failure.  Either way, someone will be upset and Obama will be called a liar, a sham and a fraud as he is in a no win situation.

It was interesting to watch the world stock markets yesterday, which rallied on the news of an Obama win. From Tokyo to London, investors were ecstatic until it came time for Wall Street to close, with the Dow falling more than it ever had in one single post election day.   Perhaps those closest to Obama foretell the future, which is certainly the first I told you so moment of his term and he is not even in office yet.   Mark my words; we will have many more I told you so moments to come in the next four years which will be the worst four years since Jimmy Carter wrought havoc on our nation. 

So why am I so happy today? Because I recognize that Obama is going to give the mainstream media their wakeup call.   The lifeblood of the media is negative publicity and for the past eight years they have had George W. Bush, a president they singlehandedly made unpopular, to use as their scapegoat.   He’s gone, the Democrats aren’t. Bad news isn’t going away.   In fact it is going to get worse. Who can they possibly blame; their beloved Democrat who control Congress or their messianic, untested, little known President elect. 

For conservatives, I see the best years yet to come.   According to election day data, 33% of voters were self described conservatives, 22% self described liberals.   We had gay marriage bans passed in Arizona, Florida and even the perpetually blue California.   Despite what the pundits think, we are a center right country with the Reagan generation just beginning to reach the peak of our money making years.   As this new generation of power brokers emerges, we will embrace Republicans such as Sarah Palin, Jeff Flake, Mike Pence and Bobby Jindal because they, like us, are true Reagan conservatives who have not lost their direction.

While John McCain is a great human being and America, he was a marginal candidate at best.   Certainly he understands the danger posed by Islamic fascism, but his assaults on free speech and his support of amnesty were always red flags.   In many ways, his losing will turn out to be a long term win as liberals will be exposed for who they really are over the next four years.   We have far too many in the younger generations who don’t understand the grave threat to freedom, liberty and sovereignty posed by liberals who embrace Marxism far too easily.   We have an entire northeast and midwest that are economic basketcases and just so happen to be dominated by liberal politics.   We have a south and mountainwest that continue to thrive and of no surprise are dominated by conservatives.  It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what is wrong, but it will take four years of bad economic news to wake up the government educated, economically illiterate sheep.

My hope is that the change we can count on begins in Alaska, where Ted Stevens won re-election as a convicted felon and now must resign. Governor Sarah Palin will then be able to call a special election and would win in a landslide.  Let the change begin there and begin a snowball effect that will have liberals and their insidious socialist ideals running for the hills beginning with the 2010 mid-term elections that take place in just 769 days.

Twas the night of elections and all through the slums;
ACORN filled out voter cards for the derelicts and bums.
The working class sang praise of hope and of change;
Anticipating wealth that only Obama could arrange.

Single moms were nestled all snug in their beds;
Dreaming of welfare checks so they could buy new threads.
Their kids had daddy’s they’d never know,
Obama had trillions they could soon blow.

When out in the street, there arose a big clatter
I dropped my cold beer to see what was the matter
I turned off my plasma and opened the door
And saw to my amazement the messiah I adore

He had come for some money to spread the wealth around
Which was not what he promised the last time around,
I said I was poor, making 8 bucks an hour
He said “I don’t care, I now have the power”

He called on his thugs to pillage my home
They stole my possessions that they now called their own.
They took me to jail, said paying taxes was patriotic
To which I responded was asinine and idiotic.

More rapid than ACORN his fascists they came
As he whistled and shouted and called them by name,
Now Pelosi, now Biden, now Rezko and Ayers,
Bring on Jeremiah Wright, a man who truly cares.

From the Capitol Building to the Golden Gate
Accomplishment and success succumbed to his fate
He appointed some judges to destroy our land
Crumbling up the Constitution in his left hand.

Hard work was punished, free speech made a crime
Boortz, Beck and Hannity were now doing hard time.
The fate of El Rushbo made headline news,
He was sentenced to life as a guest on the View.

I learned a valuable lesson that night in the slammer
As Obama walked by with a sickle and a hammer
I realized the error of my uninformed ways
And wished I could take back my vote today.

Obama is a danger to the nation we cherish
His agenda will cause freedom and liberty to perish,
If you care for your land you will heed this warning
An Obama promise is as phony as global warming.

So get off your butt and go vote for McCain.
Who can veto the liberals that drive us insane
To do anything else will doom our great land
As Obama is a liar, a fake and a sham.

According to the Treason Times and Obama press secretaries Couric, Gibson and Williams the election is all but over. After all, the Iranian parliament has announced their endorsement of B. Hussein Obama and Al-Queda has called off any pre-election attacks on the United States. 

I guess it’s time to take a look at what the United States 7/1/1776-11/4/2008 (R.I.P.) will look like when the Messiah moves to Pennsylvania Avenue.   To give you an example, I would suggest watching the evening news the day following the election, as it will be full of footage of Obama fanatics looting, pillaging and burning cities down.   If you don’t want to wait, just watch this video for a sneak preview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6dj8wSDpn8

Yes, it is offensive but then again no more so than an Obama presidency. Crime will be on the rise in a nation where our courts will be littered with criminal appeasing Obama appointees. Sure, they’ll take away your guns in the name of public safety but don’t expect for a second they will demand that criminals turn in their firearms.  

A good preview of our nation for the next four years is Wall Street which is in mass sell off mode in anticipation of an Obama victory.   Capital is leaving our nation as never seen before.   More and more jobs will go to India and elsewhere as Obama makes it impossible for companies to operate under a new union power grab.   Small businesses will continue to lay off more and more workers resulting in record unemployment which is what Obama wants, as that creates the need for more government. 

The election of Obama will mark the end to the America that promoted rugged individualism and self sufficiency and the beginning of a culture of nanny state entitlementalism.   The riots that ensue after the birth of our new nation will mark the beginning of our own domestic banana republic where Chicago style corruption and mafia hits become the norm.  

This has been the agenda of 1960’s era radicals for a generation, but they were never able to pull it off until they created Barack Obama.   For all we know, Obama was assembled and programmed a Chicago basement and given a fake Hawaiian birth certificate. Then again, maybe he was really born in Kenya and is ineligible to be president. We will never know because the media isn’t doing their job.  

What is certain are increased taxes, inflation and unemployment.   Family values will be a thing of the past unless your family consists of two mommies, two daddies, two transgendereds, two pedophiles or any variation thereof. But mommy and daddy, no way Jose. Speaking of Jose, he and his 12 million illegal buddies will soon be citizens moving into your neighborhoods to steal more of our education dollars. 

Yes, the Obamination is set to debut at number one come Election Day. This may be the greatest horror film witnessed since the rise of the Third Reich.   If you don’t know the real Obama, please click on this link and share it with your uninformed friends who still have time to make an informed decision.
