I just think it is INCREDIBLY inconsistent that, on ONE DAY, Barack Obama stands behind his "Office of the President Elect" sign(when there clearly is no such office), and wants everyone to hear what he has to say . . . . and then Israel and the Palestinians have a problem and he refuses to say ANYTHING except "we only have one president at a time." Of course we only have one president at a time. But that didn't stop him from having press conferences EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK to discuss GM/Ford/Chrsyler, the economy, or any other issue that came up. But NOW he doesn't want to say anything because "we only have one president at a time." What a crock.
In other words, he doesn't want you to know, YET, that he isn't going to do HALF of what he promised to do while running for office, namely STAND BEHIND ISRAEL. Weren't ANY of you paying attention, America, when Obama was caught getting illegal campaign contributions FROM TWO BROTHERS IN GAZA????
Sadly, Israel is on her own. And when the muslim extremists finally catch on . . . .Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Egypt . . . they are all going to want a piece of Israel. They have been waiting for this moment FOREVER. And don't think that Iran isn't going to get involved. And when they do . . . God, I hate to even think how big this is going to get. Hmmmm . . . . now just throw in India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq . . . . we better get those electric cars on the assembly line, and quick.
And why? Because "we" decided character, experience, integrity, and judgment didn't matter. We just wanted "change." Well that's what we are getting.
But what America refused to see, which I warned of all along in the weeks and months leading up to Nov. 4 was . . . . there was a SIGN on Obama that you refused to read: "Buy change and get an Armageddon for FREE! While supplies last."
As I close today's entry . . . I am wondering why a GOVERNOR(Sarah Palin) was attacked so relentlessly, but Caroline Kennedy's credentials are not being attacked? The woman has NEVER held an elected office, and never has worked a full-time job in her life! Yeah, no double standard there! I guess experience doesn't matter anymore. As long as you are good looking, young, and can read a prepared speech from a teleprompter, that's all that matters.

Am I "misinformed?"
You know how you can tell the difference between a liberal and a conservative? A conservative does not RELY solely on rhetoric, and is willing to back up what they say with FACTS. It's easy to just label someone as "misinformed." But if you are unwilling to cite EXAMPLES of how I am misinformed, then may I suggest cease listening to Tom Brokaw and the liberal lying left? It's a good idea for those of you who are living your life day to day in a fantasy world.
So let's go through some of what may more appropriately be referred to as "today's thoughts."
Barack Obama. I hear in one city there has been declared to be a "Barack Obama Day." In other places, schools and other landmarks are being named after "The Messiah." Hold the phone people! The man has not been president for ONE DAY yet. Even John F. Kennedy didn't have ANYTHING named after him until after his assasination! Why are we so quick to want to name our children, our schools, and so much else after a man who has not actually ACCOMPLISHED ANYTHING? Now, for those of you who think I am just "misinformed," I invite you to cite the accomplishments of "The Messiah." Yes, he is MY President, or WILL BE effective January 20, 2009. And honestly I wish him nothing but the best. I hope that all my speculation was WRONG, and that he lives up to his label as "Messiah."
This is not a LABEL that I, or any conservative has unfairly placed upon him. Here's one of his quotes: "this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal." What is he talking about? Suddenly I am REMINDED of his promise . . . that electricity prices would "necessarily skyrocket" under his administration. Hmmmm . . . . yeah, let's slow the rise of the sea level . . . by taxing the hell out of energy. Good idea, Barack. And let's be sure to do that during an economic downturn which none of us have ever seen in our lifetime! Yeah, great idea. And even if he were successful . . . if the U.S. STOPPED creating greenhouse gases alltogether, and everything ran off of solar and wind energy . . . what about every other country on earth? Even THINKING that we are going to make a DENT in the "global warming" is incredibly naive. But I guess that is what makes a liberal a liberal. Believing in fairy tales.
Now, let's switch subjects. Let's talk about the "Big Three." First, as an economist and a patriot, let me say that I believe that the "Big Three" MUST be "bailed out." However, as you will read in my previous posts, there is no getting around the FACT(now who is misinformed?) that 1)labor in almost every other country is cheaper(much cheaper) than here in the U.S. Obama can't change that fact, and neither can you or I, AND 2)the only auto manufacturers in the U.S. who are having problems are the ones INFECTED by the UAW.
Nissan is doing fine. Volkswagen and BMW are doing fine. Toyota and Honda are also doing well. ALL of these companies MANUFACTURE in the U.S. and NONE of these companies are having economic hardship like the ONLY THREE WHO ARE STRAPPED BY CONTRACTS WITH THE UAW. Whether you like it or not, the FACT is that these manufacturers have roughly a $30/hour advantage per hour per laborer over the "Big Three", and now YOU are asked to pick up the tab. What happened to competition? Why don't we just bail out EVERYBODY? The UNIONS have put the "Big Three" in the situation they are in, and BANKRUPTCY is the only way they can survive.
In BANKRUPTCY COURT, the "Big Three" can rid themselves of the burdensome UNCOMPETIVIVE contracts that UAW has forced upon them, and compete. Oh, by the way, GM just announced it is CLOSING 21 plants nationwide.
Question: How many Toyota, Honda, BMW, Volkswagen, or BMW plants have been closed? Zero. Now who is misinformed? The "Big Three" cannot pay $30 per hour per worker MORE than it's competition, and stay in business, period. But I guess that is where we get to "the rub." No candidate in U.S. history has EVER been supported by the unions more than "The Messiah." Why? Money. They gave HIM money, and now they want HIM, Nancy, and Harry to keep writing the checks . . . and take the money out of YOUR PAYCHECK to fund it. Well I will tell you ONE thing . . . THIS conservative isn't having any of it. If you want to be FOR marriage between TWO MEN, and help subsidize the UAW, go for it. Be as progressive as you want to be, liberal. But THIS conservative is not going to be a part of it. Call me "misinformed." But don't call me stupid. This "misinformed" conservative has a bachelor's degree in Economics and a J.D. in law. AND to go with that, I haven't been "drinking the Kool-Aid." You want to live in Disney World? Fine. But don't think I am going to help you pick up the check.
"Misinformed?" That's funny. I CHALLENGE those who think I am "misinformed" to stop hiding their head in the sand and deal with a little thing us conservatives like to refer to as "reality." Cite the case, baby.
And as my PARTING THOUGHT for tonight . . . I remember Obama saying last week that there was no contact(with Gov. "Blogo"), and he STARTED to say "whatsoever," but retracted that word because he knew it would come back to bite him in the ass . . . . and today we hear that there was "nothing improper." Hmmmm . . . . . well, Barack . . . we now know that your CHIEF OF STAFF has been on tape discussing the successor for your senate seat . . . are you not BIG ENOUGH to just admit it, and move on? Naw, I guess Tom Brokaw and Chris Matthews are who REALLY runs this country. Did it REALLY take Barack OVER A WEEK to discover that his CHIEF OF STAFF has been in DIRECT CONTACT WITH GOV. BLOGO? You people just need to keep drinking the Kool-Aid.
But what do I know? I am misinformed.
Here's a little homework assignment for you Kool-Aid drinking Obama heads who want to name everything in sight after a man who has 1)accomplished NOTHING, and 2)not been president for even a day: This is a TWO-PART ASSIGNMENT!
PART ONE: Please explain when and how an "Office of the President Elect" came into being. I am so curious!!!
PART TWO: Please provide a list of politicians who came from Chicago, in U.S. History, who were not utterly corrupt . . . the list must include only those who did not coincidentally SURROUND THEMSELVES with corrupt individuals as Tony Rezko, Gov. Blogo, etc . . . I am waiting . . . . get those assignments turned in!!! OR, just keep hiding your head in the sand, because as a liberal, I am WELL AWARE that the only way you can keep supporting a CORRUPT IDIOT like Barack Obama is to be misinformed yourself.
Nitey Nite.

LMAO
"Here in Illinois, as I think is true across the country, there is a tradition of public service where people are getting in it for the right reasons and to serve. But there's also a tradition where people view politics as a business." Which is it, Barack? How can you have BOTH? Answer: you can't. There IS a tradition, and that tradition is to seek public office to be as corrupt as you can, and extort contractors, and pander to gangsters and criminals.
For the record, a full 20% of Illinois' governers in the past 100 years have landed in prison due to the "tradition" Barack speaks of. That's a good record, huh?
Now let's ask ourselves, HOW could Obama not KNOW of Gov Blogo's corruption? After all, even David Axelrod ran away from Blogo . . . but guess who stayed and supported Blogo, even as late as 2007? Yep. Obama. But he didn't KNOW anything. He also didn't KNOW of the things his preacher of twenty years was saying, and he didn't KNOW what William Ayers was doing, and he just didn't know ANYTHING . . . did he? So what does that mean? It either means that we have elected ANOTHER corrupt, lying democrat OR we have elected a man so naive he has no business anywhere near 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
As yourself THIS: HOW could a man make his way through such a corrupt machine, landing in the White House after not even completing his FIRST TERM in the senate, without participating in the corruption that has made Chicago famous? But he wants all the Obamaheads to be dumb enough to believe that he did JUST THAT, all the while affiliating with guys who either went to prison, or are headed there . . . . yeah, he didn't know ANYTHING. Tell me another one, Barack.
His statement earlier this week said it all. He said he had "no contact" and STARTED to say WHATSOEVER, but he stopped himself in the middle of that very word(because he knew it was a lie and would be exposed as such), and then quickly went on to say "we" but then changed that to "I" when referring to whether or not discussions took place between Blogo and the "Office of the President Elect," a fiction created by The Messiah himself.
Last month, David Axelrod said in a televised interview that he KNEW that Obama and Blogo HAD conversations about who would fill Obama's vacant seat, but immediately after Obama denied that, Axelrod quickly remembered that he must have misspoken earlier.
But wait a minute. If there were no talks between the Obama camp and Blogo, why do we have Blogo on tape, calling Obama a MF'er, referring to the fact that Obama was only willing to offer "appreciation" for naming someone to the seat of Obama's choosing. Oh, I'm sure Blogo was just mistaken also. We all know Obama doesn't lie.
This reminds me of how Clinton lied over an dover about his sex addiction, even under oath, and was promptly re-elected by people who apparently do not care about such commodities as character, integrity, and honesty . . . oh no. Clinton was re-elected by the "I know you feel my pain and I am voting for your lying ass anyway because I want goodies" crowd.
And today, Obama comes out again, in his "tradition" statement, he vowed to look into whether anyone from "The Office of President Elect" had conversations with Blogo, and promised to do that within "the next few days." Isn't this something he should already know? And if not, isn't it something he could find out in ten minutes? What Obama is doing is waiting to see what other information starts coming out so he doesn't get locked into anything and then get caught lying, AGAIN.
One thing I have 100% confidence in: Obama didn't 1)come from the most corrupt city in this country, and 2)befriend so many crooks, felons, and scumbags and not get his hands dirty.
And the truth WILL come out. And when it does, America's DECISION to overlook these issues during the election will come back and bite them in the ass. Write it down. And it isn't going to take that long either. Bank on it. Blogo is already facing 30 years on two counts, and enough charges will be added to GUARANTEE Blogo will NEVER see the outside of a prison again, so you can expect him to spill the beans. Think he is going to go to prison FOREVER and let Obama just keep riding along on his high horse? I wouldn't count on it. Suddenly I am reminded of Sammy "The Bull" Gravano. A man who was a mafia hit man, but saved his own hide to take down John Gotti. He did. Gravano is free today. Gotti dies in prison.
Barack got two of the first three checks he EVER received in his political career from Tony Rezko, a Syrian who is now in prison. Rezko was also Blogo's money man. Just another coincidence? Keep telling yourself that. That LAND DEAL I have been talking about for months will come up again. Don't worry. Further, in addition to the vile affiliation with William Ayers and Reverend Jeremiah Wright, Obama was one of FOUR men who met weekly to RUN Blogo's campaign a few years ago. There is NO WAY IN HELL that Obama did what he did without doing something that will eventually tear him down.
One thing is for sure: Obama is not sleeping well. And if I were him I wouldn't do too much unpacking in January . . . if it even gets that far.
So I will do it again. . . . . LMAO

There goes the neighborhood
What have been the biggest financial disasters in recent history? One would be hard to find two bigger problems than the Mortgage Crisis and the apparent failure of Detroit's "Big Three."
If ya wanna expose the cause of just about ANYTHING in American politics, what better way to do so than to just FOLLOW THE MONEY?
1)The Mortgage Crisis
Only one person, Sen. Chris Dodd, received more money from Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae than Barack Obama. Why would they be giving money to Obama? The ONLY reason ANYONE gives money to a candidate is because that candidate has pledged support for policies that help THAT ENTITY, period. It isn't benevolance or good will. And now we know, at least YOU SHOULD know, that these entities were pressured by ACORN(who Barack Obama has had an extensive relationship with up to the present) to give loans to people who simply could not afford them. And so Fannie, Freddie, AIG, Leyman Brothers, they all too a fall. And who picked up the check? You. It is puzzling how Obama's close affiliation with ACORN , and his direct FINANCIAL LINK to Fannie and Freddie were not better exposed, but who was listening anyway? The media wasn't interested, and you apparently weren't either. So get out your checkbook.
2)The "Big Three"
Chrysler, GM, and Ford are the only three automakers in this country who can't seem to be profitable. They also, coincidentally, are the only three that have been strongarmed by the UAW. Honda, Toyota, Nissan, BMW, Volkswagen . . . all make cars in the U.S. and none of them are in financial trouble. And guess what? None of them have the UAW in their pocket. The "Big Three" make good cars, and they sell them competitively . . . but make FAR LESS PER VEHICLE than the others, and are therefore less prepared to endure a storm such as we find ourselves in because of the unbelieveable burden the UAW has become. The Big Three LOSES $47,000 per employee. The NON-UAW companies average a profit of $33,000 per employee. that's a difference of $80,000 per employee. How are these companies to compete with the forces of greed and corruption eating them up like a cancer?
So what candidate does the UAW support? How'd you guess! Damn you're good. It's President Elect Barack Obama! Obama has already promised to implement "The Employee Free Choice Act" which is designed to do one thing and one thing only: make unionization easier. So before ya know it, Honda, Toyota, BMW, Nissan, Volkswagen, they'll all be shaken down by Obama and the UAW, and it won't be long before cars can't be manufactured profitably in this country and all the cars in the world will be made in Mexico and China. i guess we'll blame THAT on George Bush also.
So what is the "Employee Free Choice Act?" Choice sounds good, doesn't it? Well, ask yourself this. Why would ANYONE support taking away an employee's RIGHT to a SECRET BALLOT about whether or not he wishes to be represented by a union? The answer is easy. If the secrecy of your vote is taken away it makes it far easier to intimidate people into voting the union in.
Hello to inflation, higher unemployment, and yes . . . chaos.
Unions are the #1 reason why we continue to lose manufacturing jobs to other countries such as China and Mexico. In China the minimum wage is between $43 and $60/month. And we wonder why a company would close its doors in the U.S. and relocate to China. The pensions and benefit packages extorted from the Big Three by the UAW are unconscionable and unsustainable. And this "bailout" will be eaten up by the end of January and we are just goingt o THROW more money at them . . . . WHY? Because the UAW knows the alternative is Bankruptcy COurt where the companies will be FREED from the UAW contracts that are killing them. The UAW owns the Democratic Party, and the Dems are in control. And when it fails, the Dems are to blame. Bankruptcy Court or legislation that pairs down the UAW contracts will stop the inevitable. Either that or the UAW moving in on the foreign automakers who manufacture in this country. But then that just means the will ALL close down.
We are driving companies away in droves. And Obama thinks that increasing the size and power of unions is the answer to the problem? President Bush was blamed for jobs lost, but who can list ONE THING, ONE POLICY that Bush has implemented that encouraged this?
And while I am on the subject . . . Obama promised to end the war in Iraq. And YOU fell for it. He campaigned on the mistakes made in Iraq and he is going to do nothing but INCREASE our presence in Afghanistan, move into Pakistan, and stay in Iraq where we SHOULD BE. But he apparently found LOTS OF MORONS to believe he was for "change," and well . . .
HERE WE ARE. Nobama in 2012.
If ya wanna expose the cause of just about ANYTHING in American politics, what better way to do so than to just FOLLOW THE MONEY?

Hello to inflation, higher unemployment, and yes . . . chaos.
Unions are the #1 reason why we continue to lose manufacturing jobs to other countries such as China and Mexico. In China the minimum wage is between $43 and $60/month. And we wonder why a company would close its doors in the U.S. and relocate to China. The pensions and benefit packages extorted from the Big Three by the UAW are unconscionable and unsustainable. And this "bailout" will be eaten up by the end of January and we are just goingt o THROW more money at them . . . . WHY? Because the UAW knows the alternative is Bankruptcy COurt where the companies will be FREED from the UAW contracts that are killing them. The UAW owns the Democratic Party, and the Dems are in control. And when it fails, the Dems are to blame. Bankruptcy Court or legislation that pairs down the UAW contracts will stop the inevitable. Either that or the UAW moving in on the foreign automakers who manufacture in this country. But then that just means the will ALL close down.
We are driving companies away in droves. And Obama thinks that increasing the size and power of unions is the answer to the problem? President Bush was blamed for jobs lost, but who can list ONE THING, ONE POLICY that Bush has implemented that encouraged this?
And while I am on the subject . . . Obama promised to end the war in Iraq. And YOU fell for it. He campaigned on the mistakes made in Iraq and he is going to do nothing but INCREASE our presence in Afghanistan, move into Pakistan, and stay in Iraq where we SHOULD BE. But he apparently found LOTS OF MORONS to believe he was for "change," and well . . .
HERE WE ARE. Nobama in 2012.
I TOLD YOU SO
First, let me say this: This "Obama guy" is so incredibly full of himself, what is this with the "Office of the President Elect?" There IS no such office, period. But does that matter? Apparently not. This guy just lives in a fantasy world. Nothing he says matters, nothing he does matters, he just lives in the fantasy world that 96% of blacks and 53% of Americans encouraged him to create. So now we have the "Office" of President Elect. What a joke.
Did you REALLY think that Obama came up so fast through the "Chicago Machine" without being as dirty as all the rest? Do you think his affiliations with Rev. Wright, Rev. Phleger, William Ayers, and Tony Rezko were just coincidental? So what's in TODAY'S NEWS?
Illinois' governor, Rod Blagojevich has been taken into custody on federal charges stemming from his attempt to SELL Obama's vacant seat in the senate to the highest bidder. You might recall, Illinois' LAST governor is sitting in the penitentiary as we speak and THIS guy, Blagojevich, promised to "change" the way things are done in Illinois, in Chicago, but it looks like more of the same to me.
Heard in court-authorized wiretaps trying to extort financial gain for himself, Blagojevich allegedly discussed the possibility of receiving a substantial salary working for a non-profit foundation or labour union and a cabinet post or ambassadorship for himself in return for apointing Obama's replacement, the affidavit says.
Stop right there for a second. Labor Union? gee, I wonder who could make THAT happen? Oh, don't be cynical! I am sure the hundreds of millions the labor unions gave to Obama's campaign had ANYTHING to do with this! How could you even THINK of such a thing??? But what is more puzzling is the mention of "a cabinet post" or "ambassadorship." Those are two things that are in the exclusive province of the PRESIDENT. So there WERE talks.
And you heard it HERE first: during the campaign, what Obama Said PUBLICLY regarding who would fill his vacant seat if he were to be elected, he PROPERLY RESPONDED that it was none of his concern, that it was the duty of the governor to make the appointment.
Aha! But now we KNOW, not THINK, not SPECULATE, but KNOW due to wiretapped conversations, that a high-ranking member of Obama's transition team was bartering with the governor, offering to name the governor's WIFE to paid positions on various corporate boards in exchange for OBAMA selecting the successor.
I'm sorry, but if ANYONE thinks that this doesn't smell to the high heavens, I don't know how you sleep at night, and I can CERTAINLY understand why you cared so little about the man's character as he was campaigning. He SAID it was none of his concern, because it wasn't. But behind closed doors he was sure trying to BUY that senate seat for one of his own, using labor unions, cabinet posts, ambassadorships, influence with corporate donors, ANYTHING to get what he wants.
This makes the FOURTH Illinois governor in forty years to be arrested. Maybe he and the former governor can be cell mates. But here's a little tidbit for ya. Remember Tony Rezko? He's awaiting sentencing on HIS corruption and bribery charges. Guess who he raised money for? You guessed it. Blagojevich and Obama. Oh, but I am sure Rezko's involvement with helping Obama was all on the up-and-up! Right? I am sure he was just corrupt when helping Blagejevich! Yeah, Obama is above all that stuff for sure!! Just keep believing that. And when are ya going to come look at that bridge in Louisiana I am trying to sell? I just know you are going to love it!
And lastly, why would I be surprised that this is the way President Obama will operate? That's how he got elected, BUYING votes by promising programs and benefits to people who saw nothing else. Who cares if it will bankrupt the country, right? "Just promise me a check and I'll vote for ya." That's our new motto. Now that "Chicago Politics" has taken over the country.
What is this? We have such a thirst for impeachment proceedings we have to elect a Democrat every once in a while to remind ourselves of how much fun SCANDAL and CORRUPTION can be? Or is this a secret strategy to revive America's newspapers, which will no doubt be filled with scandal until the day we oust this dirtbag from the Whitehouse, in turn driving up sales and advertising of countless bankrupt newspapers(I use that term very loosely)? I can't figure it out.
But what do I know? I'm just one of the last standing PATRIOTS whose vote isn't for sale.
GOD BLESS AMERICA ANYWAY!
