We The People Really Do Want To Save Our Republic!

A few days ago, as I sat at the computer trying to get a handle on the latest political pulse of America, I had a random thought and it gave me some real hope for taking our great Country back again. Often times random thoughts and feelings take a back burner to life, but for some reason I decided to write this one down. Happily, this random thought has been able to help a few good patriots and I sincerely hope it will continue to do so. Recently, several email exchanges came to my attention and I thought perhaps my random thought may help some of these patriots who are feeling bummed, scared, angry, etc.  So here goes my two cents for what it’s worth.

I think the Massachusetts Special Election taking place today, would have been very different in the recent past, mainly because it would not be receiving the attention it is getting today. The American People are finally doing their job, yes they are doing their job as citizens today much more so than yesterday. Yesterday, we the people would not have known about this special election…media would have perhaps mentioned it briefly, however it really would not have been thought about much by us folks, after all it’s not in “our State” what can we do???? We probably would have sat back and watched, not taking the bold steps we’re taking to help.  I see this as a true awaking for a lot of Americans. I have several liberal friends in the Boston area, and I personally sent emails to them asking for help with saving our Republic. I would have never done that a couple of years ago.  I am no longer a politically correct person, too much is on the line.

As Benjamin Franklin said so long ago in response to the question by Mrs. Powell in 1787,

“Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?”
With no hesitation whatsoever, Franklin responded,
“A republic, if you can keep it.”

Perhaps the American people truly want to keep the Republic our Founding Fathers gave us, today much more so than yesterday!

Personally, I am thanking God for awakening the people. We have reached a turning point yet again in our great history.

Statue of Liberty Replica Beheaded in New York

Police in New York City are scrambling to locate the producers of a YouTube video that depicts a stolen replica of the Statue of Liberty blindfolded, beheaded and smashed into pieces a display that one terror expert says is intended to “instill fear” in everyday Americans.

The 59-second video shows the 8-foot, 200-pound replica statue, which was stolen from a Brooklyn coffee shop last month, being decapitated and pulverized — accompanied by the words “We don’t want your freedom” and “Death to America.”

The video is sick and disturbing. The people behind it need to be captured and prosecuted. If you have any information please contact the New York Police Department 1-888-NYC-SAFE or The FBI

I have no idea if this was a childish hoax or was the work of radical Muslims – either way it’s disturbing and sick!

Obama’s Approval Rating is in Free Fall Cue Tom Petty

The latest news is dreadful for the Obama administration and wonderful for those of us who care about this country and the founding principles it was built upon. 

Obama’s approval rating over the last couple of days is in free fall.  Rasmussen reported yesterday that his approval rating had dropped a full percentage point (-5) – which is huge for one day and usually indicates a trend.  Today’s report showed that Obama was at -8 making those who approve 51% and those opposed 48%.  The writing is on the wall and I think that other leaders in the conservative movement may have read these signs in advance – making their decisions that much easier. 

If Obama’s approval drops below 50% it will be incredibly difficult to get it over that point again – barring some miracle, economically speaking.  The chances of economic improvement are minimal and his empty slogan of hope and change is ringing hollow on the masses.  The economy does not look as though it will improve any time soon due to massive amounts of spending, a war waged against the middle class and small businesses, and the private sector, we will be in a massive downturn for a couple of years – inflation will be inevitable.  The chances of him surviving another term if he enacts legislation that would drastically dismantle the foundation this country was built upon, are slim-to-none.

Two swing states that turned blue last year were also polled.  The trend that is occurring at a national level is also occurring at the local level.  Both Ohio’s and Virginia’s approval ratings for Obama are below 50%. 

It will only be a matter of time before his personal approval rating comes down along with it!  My guess: October; when unemployment is worse, the market has taken another massive nose-dive (and it will – it will go lower than it did the first quarter of this year), and inflation hits.  

ObamaCare Explained Through Legos

It’s important to remember that Massachusetts had a Republican governor at the helm, who proposed the same type of system that Obama is proposing.  As much as those out there argue that the governor’s plan was taken to extremes by the next liberal administration – that still does not excuse the fact that a progressive politician (be it Republican or Democrat) set in motion a piece of legislation that harms more than it helps.  The same could be said for Bush’s ‘No Child Left Behind Act.’  It was still Bush’s idea and he pushed for the legislation, even after it was made into something unintended. 

A recent study released from Massachusetts showed that only 26% felt that the state’s universal health care program worked.  Those who actually were the poorest and previously did not have health care, liked the program the least.  Progressives want people to believe that billions of people are without health care, when that’s not the case, and the few million who don’t have it, are either here illegally, choose not to use one of the many programs in existence that offers health care, or are fine with going to the emergency rooms in hospitals. 

Make no bones about it, Obama wants his way or it’s the highway.  He WON remember?  Get over it!  He doesn’t want to compromise on the health care debate, and he made that point abundantly clear today, even from overseas.  He told the moderate Democrats in Congress that he does not want a compromise with Republicans… He wants exactly what he proposed.  Smoke and mirrors legislation that looks as though the program is competitive, but would eventually make it too expensive for small and medium sized business to carry insurance for their employees.  The government cannot compete with the private sector – it always wins.

So What Has George Soros Been Up To Lately?

George Soros, one of the wealthiest men in the world, as well as one of the largest hedge fund owners, is behind Obamacare.

Health Care for America Now (HCAN), endorsed by President Obama as the coalition pushing his health-care (euthanasia) reform, is a project of billionaire British-agent speculator George Soros, his Tides Foundation, and the Saul Alinsky counter-insurgency networks Soros used to ramp up the Obama Presidential candidacy.

Though labor unionists will come into Washington on June 25 to rally and lobby for the Obama “reform,” the HCAN organization sponsoring the D.C. events explicitly opposes the single-payer health-care plan favored by labor and by most Americans.

The group was established in July 2008 as an adjunct to the Soros operations supporting the Obama candidacy. At the outset, HCAN National Campaign Director Richard Kirsch wrote (July 16, 2008, Huffingtonpost) under the headline, “Why Not Single-Payer?” “I want to take a moment and address those of you who have been asking why Health Care for America Now is not focusing on creating a single-payer health insurance system.” Kirsch explains that he used to believe in that sort of thing, but came to realize it would scare people.

Here’s a little more about HCAN from an op-ed by Michelle Malkin:

HCAN has a $40 million budget, with $10 million pitched in by The Atlantic Philanthropies — a Bermuda-based organization fronted by Soros acolyte Gara LaMarche. Also in the money mix: notorious Democratic donors Herb and Marion Sandler, the left-wing moguls who made billions selling subprime mortgages and helped Soros fund his vast network of left-wing activist satellites. By their side is billionaire Peter Lewis of Progressive Insurance, whose “Progressive Future” youth group has dispatched clueless volunteers armed with clip-boards and literature bashing Rush Limbaugh and Fox News to scare up support for Obamacare.

And two more left-wing heavyweights joining the HCAN parade: the corruption-plagued SEIU (which has battled numerous embezzlement scandals among its chapters across the country while crusading for consumer and patients’ rights) and Obama’s old chums at fraud-riddled ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.

Oh the tangled web we weave.  The tentacles of all the progressive organizations are intertwined as much as the sub-prime market was woven throughout the stock market.  These progressive groups with their new super majority finally feel as though they can pass through their agenda.

It doesn’t cease to amaze me how connected all of these groups are.  This begs the question – who is the head of the snake?  Is it George Soros?  There was a lot of speculation and perhaps a lot of fact, of his attempting to bring down the United Kingdom.  Many of these radical left wing groups are funded and run by the same individuals.  I hope that somebody can someday figure out the exact tree/web/links in the chain, and make a movie out of it.  It could be called The Twilight Zone – never mind that movie already exists… but perhaps something similar!

George Soros is also involved in another scheme that has not received much attention at all.  He has received over $300K of taxpayer dollars to open a restaurant in a very run-down, poor area of New York where, on average, people only make about $30K per year and pay their taxes like law-abiding citizens.  Mind you, this man made millions, if not billions, last year during the collapse so please keep that in mind as you read about his ties to progressive groups, his encouragement for government run health care and cap & trade, etc.

George Soros is opening up another Dinosaur Bar-B-Que in the old rust belt of up-state New York; Troy.  His company, Soros Strategic Partners, owns over 70% of the famous rib joint among other things like moveon.org, factcheck.org, hedge funds, not to mention he is also the single largest contributor to the DNC.

When Soros found the right building to create an additional franchise, the building came with a gift of approximately $218K of back taxes.  Normally, the back taxes on a building would be tacked on to the purchase price of the property but, because it’s Soros and as we’ve seen with ACORN and his other groups, he can just bully his way into welfare for the rich and additional perks that men like him could afford on their own.

Further, Dinosaur Bar-B-Que is getting a five-year deferment on the property tax that improvements on its property would have otherwise obligated it to. That five-year lag will continue for 20 years.

Meaning that Dinosaur Bar-B-Que will spend the next two decades paying less than its fair share of property taxes – while the locally owned businesses against which it competes will have to pay their full obligation.

Dinosaur Bar-B-Que is also being given exemption from $60,000 in sales tax for materials used to improve its building, and the $53,000 fee for recording its mortgage is being waived.

These are just further examples of progressive policies and individuals becoming cancers on our society.
