NAACP Goes ‘Ugly’
Posted by: | Comments
It is glaringly evident the modern day NAACP has abandoned the vision and dream of the Civil Rights Movements of years ago to join the liberal ‘fear mongering’ horde of politicians suddenly ‘running scared’. Dr. King would be appalled.
In doing so, they shamelessly betray blacks by trying to convince them they are victims in America based on race. This graphically identifies the NAACP as the ones who are truly ‘racists’ and not the Tea Parties they are trying to disparage. The NAACP’s so-called documented report that the tea parties are racist is part of their desperate, panic appeal to get out the vote campaign. With only two weeks remaining before the predicted democrat debacle at the polls, democrats are frantically attempting to fire up their lethargic base since their appeal is sagging.
Soros: I Can’t Stop a Republican ‘Avalanche’
Posted by: | CommentsI’m sorry, but I just can’t quit laughing.
Anyone who has visited this website before probably knows my feelings about George Soros. While I’ve stopped short of calling him Satan or Evil Incarnate, I’ve thought it once or twice before. At a minimum, I’ve believed for a long time that George Soros places his own interests far above the interests of anyone else or any Country, especially, the United States.
So, imagine my delight to run across the following headline: “Soros: I Can’t Stop A Republican ‘Avalanche’“.
In fact, I found it quite funny on several different levels.
Impertinent Questions: Why Take Elections Seriously?
Posted by: | CommentsThere’s really no reason to take elections seriously.
I’m not talking about voters. We need to take them very seriously indeed. A large portion of our lives has come under political control. Voting the wrong way can cause the industry you work for to be bankrupted, or nationalized. The damage caused by a poor choice of President in 2008 will take many years to undo.
I mean politicians don’t need to take election law seriously. Vote fraud and other irregularities have become staples of our elections. Like most crimes, they are perpetrated on a rational basis, by people who have measured risk against reward. The risk of punishment for election tampering is minimal, while the rewards are huge. There is virtually no chance a major race will be invalidated due to ballot or financial irregularities. The winners of elections gain control over the very agencies that would investigate their campaigns. Once victory is secured, the worst consequences awaiting dirty politicians are fines, which deep-pocketed contributors will be happy to help them repay.
Impertinent Questions: Who Owns Our Money?
Posted by: | CommentsTalk of tax cuts fills the air, which means the Left is getting fidgety. They’ve been forced to change from delirious big spenders who see a billion dollars as a rounding error, into flinty-eyed deficit hawks who insist raising taxes to reduce our massive budget deficit is the only responsible course of action. The speed of this transformation has left them dizzy. Consider these quotes from President Obama’s town hall meeting last Monday: Read More→
Jon McNaughton – The Forgotten Man Painting
Posted by: | CommentsCan art change minds? Most artists wouldn’t be doing their art if they didn’t think their work had an effect on people. Such is the art featured in this video. Artist Jon McNaughton has created an amazing painting called “The Forgotten Man”. The video is narrated by the artist, but here’s a quick overview of the painting:
Against the background of a darkening sky, all of the past Presidents of the United States gather before the White House, as if to commemorate some great event. In the left hand corner of the painting sits a man. That man, with his head bowed appears distraught and hopeless as he contemplates his future. Some of the past Presidents try to console him while looking in the direction of the modern Presidents as if to say, “What have you done?” Many of these modern Presidents, seemingly oblivious to anything other than themselves, appear to be congratulating each other on their great accomplishments. In front of the man, paper trash is blowing in the wind. Crumpled dollar bills, legislative documents, and, like a whisper—the U.S. Constitution beneath the foot of Barack Obama.

The Birthplace Issue has been percolating since before the 2008 election and in that time, it has bubbled just at the surface for many citizens. For just how many citizens has never been measured until recently when 60 Minutes teamed up with Vanity Fair to poll 1,000 Americans. What they found was astounding because 24% of the respondents said Barack Obama was either not born in the United States or they didn’t know where he was born. Additionally, the Pew Research Center recently published the results of a poll showing that 18% of Americans believe Obama is Muslim.
Brian Williams interviewed the President while in New Orleans to commemorate the fifth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina and the issue erupted at the highest level. An annoyed Obama lashed out at “a mechanism, a network of misinformation” churning out there in the “new media”. Clearly referring to the Internet, talk radio and FOX, Obama sought to downplay and discount the questions:

Surprise! Max Baucus Admits He Didn’t Read The Bill
Posted by: | CommentsSenate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus (D-Mont.), one of the chief authors of the healthcare law, suggested Tuesday he did not read the entire piece of legislation.
Speaking at a forum in his home state, Baucus and Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius were asked by an audience member if they had read the whole bill and “if not, that is the most despicable, irresponsible thing.”
“I don’t think you want me to waste my time to read every page of the healthcare bill,” Baucus said, according to the Flathead Beacon. “You know why? It’s statutory language. … We hire experts.”
