A Little News

Frankly Speaking


I did my best to just ignore politics for as long as I could. The fall is my favorite time of the year, and this year was no exception. I have thoroughly enjoyed my respite from blogging and following the news every day. Enjoying the world that surrounds you is a lot more fun than following politics, but after the last couple of days I find that I can't ignore what's about to happen to our country.

In previous posts I have been chastised for labeling Senator Obama as a socialist. If there is anyone out there with any doubts as to his socialist/Marxist mindset, then you haven't been paying attention.


"To avoid being mistaken for a sellout,I chose my friends carefully.The more politically active black students.The foreign students.The Chicanos.The Marxist Professors and the structural feminists and punk-rock performance poets." Senator Obama


Consider the 2001 interview with a public radio station in Chicago, which you can access by clicking on the title of this piece. When he speaks of how the courts are not structured to implement the redistribution of wealth, it doesn't take a political science major to figure out that a liberal Congress, a liberal President, and judges with similar liberal political philosophies, appointed for life by the President, will do their best to alter the framework of our government.


There is no longer any doubt that an Obama administration will do everything within it's power to institutionalize socialism and turn us into the United Socialist States of America.


Socialism in and of itself will not destroy the country, but the proponents of this philosophy will.


Ask a question of the candidate like Joe the Plumber and suddenly government computers are used to check your taxes and find anything they can to destroy your reputation.


Ask a question of the candidate and your television station is banned from further interviews.


Turn on any channel, other than Fox News, and view with incredulity the liberal bias of the mainstream media. Given the power, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid will implement a "fairness doctrine" that is anything but fair. Under the guise of fairness, the voices of the opposition are stifled. I wonder where they'll setup their re-education camps.


All that redistributed wealth needs to be handed out, and the socialists will make sure that the money goes to ACORN or other phony non-partisan groups that have no interest in anything other than their parochial concerns.


Do you have any doubt that a 25% cut in the military budget, as proposed by Barney Frank, will be enacted by an Obama administration? You shouldn't. We'll basically be waiving a white flag and inviting a level of terrorism that only Israel has experienced.


And while we're at the task of withdrawing from the world, let's stop free trade as well. Ignore the benefits to all the countries involved, and let's return to the days of tariff wars.


The economic crisis we've been treated to over the last few weeks will pale in comparison to the depths that an Obama administration will lead us to. Why would anyone with money invest it and try to grow a business only to have the profits of their hard work handed out to people that don't even contribute to the tax base?


If your options are work your butt off and give more and more of your money to the government to redistribute, or sit on your butt and let the government subsidize your life of leisure, which one would you chose?


There has never been a clearer distinction between two candidates in my memory, but with the assistance of the mainstream media, that distinction has been blurred and misconstrued to make Senator Obama appear more middle-of-the-road.


He is not a centrist, he is a socialist steeped in Marxism who wants to take this country down a path that will assure our descent as the leader of the free world.


However, we do not need to despair. Regardless of the what the polls pronounce, this race is not over by a long shot. I'm sticking with my prognostication of a McCain victory, but even if I prove to be about as accurate as Carnac, I will never lose faith in the ability of this country to overcome the foibles of our elected officials. I will fight socialism with every bit of my being because the dignity of man demands it.


There are millions of Americans that will never sit idly by while a socialist/communist administration leads this country towards Soviet style democracy. We will fight you in the halls of Congress; we will fight you in the courts; we will fight you on the airwaves, we will fight you with every legal means available.


Senator Obama will never unify this country because the millions of us who enjoy freedom and individual responsibility are willing to fight, and if necessary, die for it.

Watson,

Before you take on this war against Obama's agenda to turn America into a Socialist State, you should check into this web site. You can't fight the good fight without the right equipment.

Once you are properly equiped,

1. Google up some figures of how much wealth has been re-distributed UP the ladder to the banking and corporate interests in bail-outs. Who the F*#k do you think is going to pay off that $700B Bush just gave the banks and Wall Street? The $700B is not the first or will it be the last.

2. Google up some figures on how much corporate welfare has been handed out on the promise that it will trickle down to the shrinking middle class. When you get some idea of how much that was, then

3. Google up some real numbers of how much is spent on entitlement programs every year.

4. Finally, Google up some figures of how many $ Billions have been transfered from the U.S. Treasury to Halburton and affiliates.

What you will find is that Bush has been redistributing the wealth for eight years, but it has been coming out of your grandchildren's taxes and into Corporate bank accounts in the Camen Islands.

In all probability, additional taxes levied against that 5% of our richest will amount to no more than chump change to those people who buy private jets, 500' yaghts, and have 30,000 Sq Ft homes in three different countries.

"Oh my Gawd, Martha, they have raised our taxes. We will have to skip that shopping trip to Paris and get your new outfit at the consignment store."

How the hell do they keep getting you guys to vote against you own self interest and the welfare of 90% of the population?

Watson, I'm glad your back and pissed. NCL, I've missed you as well. Watson, in my age enfeebled mind there is really only one reason that Senator Obama will be elected President next Tuesday (or Wednesday or December 8th or whenever). It is not because he won, its because the Republican party and the Conservative movement in this country lost. They have lost their vision, they have lost their purpose, they have lost their moral fiber and, much as I may respect him personally, if John McCain is the best they can come up with, they deserve to lose. The only positive about Senator Obama being elected is that it may finally, at long last, energize the Republicans and the Right and force them to find their way.

NCL, remind me again who castigated the Republicans for voting down the bailout the first time? I seem to remember it was Ried and Pelosi. Entitlements...entitlements...some where in my memory the terms "New Deal" and "Great Society" keep coming up. Now who came up with those? Let me see....Oh, yeah...DEMOCRATS!

I googled Halburton and found nothing. Did you mean Hal Burton? That resulted in no millions either. Now Halliburton, the oil services company, they did make a lot of money in Iraq. Did you know they were secretly 100% owned by Vice President Cheney? Did you also know that they were the only company in the world with the infrastructure and the resources to do the work contracted for by the US Government? Do you know why? Because of the defense spending cuts by the Clinton Administration. That would be the same Clinton Administration that didn't want to waste a Predator drone Hellfire missile in 1997 to take out Osama Bin Laden.

All I can say Watson is, now you know how liberals have felt the last 8 years. I agree with Charles...Republicans lost this race. The John McCain of 2000 could have won this election, but instead he had to convince the "base" that he was worthy. The base being those low information voters, like Sarah Palin, that believe dinosaurs walked with man. The Goldwater (even Reagan) Republican party is no more. Even sadder, the Republican Party of Goldwater has no chance of ever existing again.

Almost forgot, there is some good news for you. Think about all the hate you will be able to voice over the next 4 years of Democratic rule.

So, pcs, let me get this straight...not only does Senator Obama get a free pass for the election campaign, once he takes office any investigation of him or questioning of his programs, any investigation of his appointments, any criticism of his missteps will automatically be considered "hate"?

I guess its a good thing for you that hating Bush is considered being patriotic.

PCS said...

No, let's just say that we treat any questions or investigations of Obama the same way we've treated Bush over the last 7 years. We ask them and he doesn't answer or investigate. That works for me and it should for you too. I'm pretty sure that hating Obama will also be considered patriotic on your side. The poor guy is going to have a hell of a lot of work to do to fix everything Bush screwed up. Let's just hope Obama doesn't get a blow job.
