hearing vs. seeing

Obama has signed yet another massive spending bill loaded with earmarks.  He campaigned saying he was against earmarks but this new bill has close to 9000 earmarks in it.  Of course he can do no wrong.  Somehow he blamed it on Bush, and claimed it marked the end of irresponsible spending.  That wasn't the Saturday Night Live parody, that is what he said.  How much longer can he blame Bush?  The campaign is over but the finger pointing has not stopped.  For some reason I don't believe a word this man says.  When he says the era of earmarks is over while passing 9000 thousand of them is like an alcoholic saying he is on the path to recovery while downing some Jack and Coke.  He knows he can say one thing and do another because his buddies in the media won't report on what happens but what he says.  If I only listened to Barry and didn't watch him I would think he was terrific, but again I am cursed with a brain.  I see what is really going on.  Unfortunately a great deal of Americans love rhetoric.  As long as the words coming out of his mouth make them happy, then all the crap pouring out of his pen can be ignored.  I won't ignore it and I won't let others ignore it.  Please, if you care about what is going on don't let it be ignored.  Let people know the truth.  They will ignore it as long as possible but once the truth effects their lives the scales will fall from their eyes.  As the coach of my favorite football team, the Cincinnati Bengals, likes to say, "I see better than I hear."  Keep your eyes open and report it.  Do not let it go unnoticed.

Setting the Record Straigt

"Oh and Rush Limbaugh is a hate monger, racist, opportunist and seriously wants our country to fail because "his guy" and "his party" lost by 8 million votes and have destroyed our country for eight years...must be the meds" 

These were the words of one of my friends on Facebook. These words have stuck in my and I cannot let them go.  I feel a sense of anger just boil up when I hear people speak like this.  Hate Monger? Racist?  How can you come up with this conclusion.  I listen to Rush quite a bit and I have never heard hims say anything hate filled or racially motivated.  It just comes with the territory I guess.  If you are a conservative that's what you get called.  Frankly I'm surprised my liberal pal didn't throw out the word Fascist like it was the first pitch at a baseball game.  Liberals love to use that word like they know what it means.  If you can convince me Mussonlini ever embraced a free market or individual liberty then by all means call me a fascist.  Now the part about wanting the country to fail...come on dude...he has said time and time again he wants our country to succeed but that means that Obama's Marxist policies must fail.  "His guy"?  Again you are showing how much you don't know.  McCain was never Limbaugh's guy, or anyone's guy for that matter. Obama was the complete Anti-"our guy"  and Rush had to support his defeat.  I also find it really funny my friend says 8 million like that is a lot of votes.  over 120 million people voted in this election.  Obama only got 52% of the popular vote.  Bush got 51% over Kerry, and libs act like he barely won, but Obama's 52% is a massive mandate.  Now for my favorite part of my buddies comment.  That the GOP destroyed the country for 8 years.  Pardon me while I laugh...........
OK.  I'm back.  Allow me to destroy this theory for a minute.... The last two years your Donkey party was in control, so you could say six years but at the end of those six our economy was great.  Also let's get in our time machine and go back a couple of years.  Which party was saying that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac could cause some serious trouble?  Now which party said they were doing just fine and it was a good idea to invest in them?  If you are a moron you might get these questions wrong...but if any liberals are reading this I better tell them the answer.  The Republicans knew there were problems but the Dems completely ignored them! 
So, my friend, next time you post on Facebook please use some facts...I know you are a liberal and you hate to look at facts so ask me first and I would be happy to set you straight.

Feeling Hopeless

I must confess I must fight through my feelings of hopelessness.  Watching the news can be devastating.  Everyday there is more bad news regarding the economy and our standing with the rest of the world.  Normally I don't give two farts about what the rest of the world thinks of us, but to hear our President gave the Prime Minister of Great Britain DVD's as a gift pains me.  I'm not a big fan of Gordy Brown but I am sure that we will need the support of Great Britain at some point in the near future.  Barry could have at least ponied up for the Blu Rays.  This was the Prime Minister's first visit with our "green" President and he brings a very meaningful gift.  A pen carved from the wood of the HMS Resolute.  That is a very well thought out gift, and what did Barry do... He probably sent Rhambo out to Best Buy.  I guess we should be happy he didn't get him a gift card.  So while the Barmister is ruining our relationship with a great friend in Great Britain Hugo Chavez is signing his praises.  Seriously...  What hope is this?  I was hoping our president wouldn't be the guy who goes to a party with a half drunk bottle of Mums.  I know you are busy and all Barry but you could have at least sent an intern out to find something nice.  Bill Clinton at least knew how to use his interns.  This is a very serious time in American History and I feel like we just put the ball in the hands of Heath Shuler to take us down the field in the final two minutes.  I hope that I can find something to really put my hope in soon.

Misinformation

Here is a quote from Barry Obama's State of the Union Address that I believe need some scrutiny.
“History reminds us that, at every moment of economic upheaval and transformation, this nation has responded with bold action and big ideas,”
One time that happened, you fear monger!  In fact the one time it this nation responded with "bold action" and "big ideas" we got stuck in a depression for ten years.  How dare this man turn history around to fit his political agenda!  So let's have a dose of real history.
This is the twentieth economic "crisis" our country has faced.  Some times there have been long recessions, and sometimes we have seen short ones.  There has been more than one Depression in this country, but the one referred to as the "Great" Depression was in fact worsened by the "bold ideas" that this new president speaks so highly of.  This was the one time we used "big ideas" and it failed.  Now Barry is standing in front of the country telling us this is something we always do and that it is successful.  Again with the Ashlee Simpson act.  I'm hearing one thing but if I look for myself I'm seeing something completely different.

Double Speak

Not only does Comrade Obama speak out of both sides of his mouth but I'm starting to think he has two mouths all together.  One mouth he uses to speak to the public and the other is the mouth of action. Very rarely have these two mouths matched up.  I think I'll refer to Obama as Ashlee Simpson because his mouth isn't matching what I'm hearing.  I'm hearing that he wants to cut the budget by 2/3 and then I see the new budget come out with funding for things like the Buffalo Bill museum. I am told that he will not except earmarks and then he changes the definition of earmark.  Everyone gets all excited when he said he wants to bring our troops home but then I see he is deploying 17,000 troops to Afghanistan.  I hear that he won't hire lobbyists but now there are plenty of lobbyists working for him.  I am guessing that there was a problem with the band and they thought they were playing a different tune.  It has gone from being comical to being frustrating.  The frustration will soon lead to anger.  I'm hearing hope and change but I'm seeing the same old game but the stakes have gone up and instead of $50 chips their now throwing in $1000 chips.  Those are our chips, and I for one am sick of it.

State Control

So, Jerry Brown (California Attorney General) said on the Michael Savage Show that “a little state control never hurt anybody.”  Of course he was referring to the “fairness doctrine”, and the government controlling talk radio. Excuse me Mr. Brown, but are you serious? It never hurt anybody? Ever hear of a little place called the USSR? What about China? Maybe Cuba? State control not only hurt a whole lot of people, but it also killed a lot of people. I know you don’t think you are speaking of the same thing as Communist control of all media. You just want to make talk radio more “fair” and more “balanced”. Why don’t you go to MSNBC and make them more balanced? Because you don’t care about balance, you care about the same thing the Commie Bastards of the Soviet Union cared about – Control. You may feel you are doing good things and have good intentions, but we all know the road to hell is paved with good intentions. I say, the road to Communism is paved with stupid liberal ideas. What’s next? We’re going to hear Harry Reid say that spending some time in a Gulag never hurt anybody? Nancy Pelosi is going to say that waiting in line for 14 hours for toilet paper never hurt anybody?  We are heading down a dangerous road.  I hope the American public wakes up very soon.

Our Foundation

In our new Cold Civil War we have one thing that our opposition does not. We have a foundation.  We stand upon something that cannot be shaken.  Our feet are planted firmly on a rock that will not roll.  God.  Our God is not Wall Street, or the Housing Market, and it is definitely not Government Funded Programs.  Our God is the God of love.  He is the maker of the Heavens and the Earth.  He will not change, he will not collapse, and he will not let us fall. If your foundation is anything that man has made, then when that foundation falls (and all man made things fall) you too will fall and you will fail.  When all your hope is placed on one man and his ideas then you are certain to come crashing down.  Our hope is in God.  Our beliefs are built on top of the one true God.  I have no fear of losing that foundation.  No matter what the markets do.  No matter what my tax rate will become I will be standing strong and tall.  When the world is crumbling around us, and all of the wonderful systems that have been built to protect us collapse we will no be falling. We did not stand upon the beliefs of that system.  My ideas and my beliefs have nowhere to go, because they rest on the ever present Lord God.
