A Government Shutdown

With all the talk of the Government shutdown, and the finger pointing that has been going on, why even listen to what anything these morons have to say ? I think Allen West has some credibility. He was on Greta last night, and what he said and the way he said things was very different from the other leaders in charge of our future (please excuse the poor video) When asked about the shutdown, he gave an honest and direct answer that told us all that a few key Democrats were were stonewalling, and he also said that we had to remember with a budget for the 111th Congress The left can say what they want, but this new group of Republicans that entered D.C this year mean business, and I think the more time they spend there, the more they will find that will embarrass the leaders on both sides of the isle. The best part about all of this is Obama launched his re-election bid on Monday. Are you kidding me ? Really ?

Survey Says....

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death...
and the valley of the left wing goobers

I was out and about reading some of the left wing blogs and past by the the First Door on The Left, who I think could be an intelligent individual if not so misguided.
He had jumped on the New York Times poll concerning cutting pay and benefits to reduce state budget deficits, and a second poll that asked about taking away collective bargaining rights from public employee unions.
He stated that Republicans do not listen to the people, and also stated that the voters had signs of remorse now over electing Walker.
Naturally I had to comment on his great skills of following the herd, and further explained that the real " poll " had been taken when the people from Wisconsin decided to elect Walker as Governor and to make a change, which is what is happening now.
The Times poll had taken opinions from everyone, and made sure it got opinions from certain demographics, meaning that the majority of those polled were from union homes, and not registered voters.
Hmmmmm, Can you say skewed ?
Bill O'Riley used a poll Thursday night in his talking points that had the reverse outcome, and used only registered voters.
What does this all mean ? Well, it could tell us, one more time that the main stream media is incredibly slanted, but we know that, it could tell us that they would rather lie to us to help get an agenda across, but we know that too.
The problem is, less than 50% of the Nation has not caught on to what is going on yet, and that forty something percent is making life hell for the rest of us and will cause a lot of damage for years to come.
This forty something percent, when it all hits the fan, will be the ones hiding in the closet with no food, and torn dirty clothes, looking up at us asking " what happened ? "

The Health Care Ruling

I sat back in a medicated state as Obama wasted another hour of my time giving the State of the Union, and I listened to, and read all of the responses from both sides commenting about how wonderful the speech was, and how is was just a rehash of last years.

Some time has passed, and I am feeling a little better now, and I waited along with millions of other Americans for a ruling on the Health Care bill in Florida.

I did suspect that certain parts would be deemed unconstitutional, but never thought that the entire bill would be thrown out.

As always, I eagerly search out the responses from the left, just to find what excuse they will use for defeat, and it seems that the majority are calling it an act of " Republican Judicial Activism "

I remember when the Health Care debate was going on, and the big question was where in the Constitution does it say that the Government provide Health Care.

It looks like the question finally got answered.

Is It Time To Wake Up Yet ?

Happy New Year !

I guess it is about time to rub the crusties out of our eyes and grab a big cup of coffee and get ourselves ready for the next few months worth of finger pointing and name calling.

It is now time to watch as John Boehner slides the well worn chair of Nancy Pelosi aside and attempt to make good on those promises that he and the Republicans laid out to us just a short time ago.

In one way or another, they plan to choke the life from Obamacare, they plan to revive our private sector by reducing the size of Government, and they plan on changing their own rules to make it harder to spend tax dollars.

From my side of aisle, I think some of that hope and change we heard about just may make it up to D.C., but I still remain cautious of an early smile until I see some kind of positive result.

Darrell Issa said Sunday that the Obama administration was one of the most corrupt



This piece is a little long, but very interesting.

It seems that there will be no shortage of work for lawyers or accountants at the White House.
I wonder how the liberal media will spin this ?

In a recent report, that many left wing bloggers have been rolling around in, it was stated that Fox News viewers were the most uninformed of all time.
According to Mark Joyella, from Mediaite, said daily Fox viewers, regardless of their party affiliation, were significantly more likely to believe things like...

The stimulus caused job losses
The health care law will worsen the deficit
That the economy is getting worse
That most scientists do not believe in global warming
And the list goes on.

So why do I have the big TIME emblem on my front page today ?
Time magazine employs a writer by the name of Joe Klien, who in a brilliant article has the idea that the year 2010 was a waste of time.
In his own words, he starts the article with " Nothing much happened in 2010 "
He does spend just a few words reminding us of a Republican sweep, and unemployment numbers of 9.8%, and even commented on the amount of time it took Obama to get the Health Care bill passed.
Joe then moves on to the lame duck session of Congress, and thumbed his nose at the meager results, and then reminded us that not much happened overseas either.
Article here.

It amazes me how the man could keep himself awake while mustering up the shear genius to create enough content to hand over to the people at Time magazine and collect his paycheck.

Now let's just refresh, did a poll say Fox News viewers are the most uninformed ?

Roll Call, a newspaper on Capitol Hill is reporting that Nancy Pelosi is asking for donations to help combat the so called " Shadow Organizations " that are currently targeting ads against her, and the policies she helped to bring about in 2010.
Pelosi is calling for help now because these organizations are looking to repeal the progress she has made.

Wait a minute, what progress ?
Joe over there at Time magazine just wrote that nothing has happened in 2010 ?

Here is what gets me, if Fox News is so full of lies, and if they give the viewer bad information, then how is it that not one time has any type of legal action been taken and followed through ?
Why does Beck, and Hannity, and O'Riley put it out there day after day ?
Why is it that we hear about Bill Ayers, and Van Jones, and ACORN, and border violence from Fox News ?

Not much happened ?
Well, I guess that depends on weather or not you have crossed over into the sheep mentality or not.
I am contented to be hunkered down here in the middle with my own opinions.

Remain Calm...All Is Well hahahahahaha

Boy howdy that pic has made a fortune.
Look at Camilla, do you think that is a staged look of fear, or is that the real thing ?
It seems that after years of extremely high taxes and nearly free education, the Government over there has decided that the Utopian society of big government tax the hell out of everybody and give them all kind of entitlements does not work, so they are going to triple the cost of tuition.
It also seems that the Democrats over there are breaking their promises, Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg signed a pre-election pledge to oppose any type of tuition hike.
Just wonder if anyone sees a mirror image yet ?



Yes, he did promise to end the tax " cuts " for the rich, and accuse the Republicans of trying to remove the tax breaks for the middle class
Two years of this administration, and we get down to just days before the Christmas break to have this debate ? And with a bunch of Lame Duck's leading the way.

But let's get back to my original point, the mean, unruly protesters upset about having to pay for college.
When people find out that all the hope and change is not coming, and the super far left has had enough of the ultra slow process that the current administration has taken in getting things done, so sad : (

And whoever is really running things throws a fit because Fox news is still on the air, and Glenn Beck is still exposing them to the light of day, and we still say Merry Christmas, and go to Church, and praise God, and support our troops, and help each other, and stand strong,

Then what happens......?

Remember this old guy ?

He had a show on not long ago that I thought was slightly built up, but I checked into it.



I did find that they do exist, and I found that there are 3 within 50 miles of D.C, and 2 more just outside of Baltimore.
This is clip 1 of 6 if you have the time to watch. It starts with the LIST
I am sure we have all heard of the list the Government keeps of people that may cause problems.
There use to be a time we were afraid of getting an audit from the IRS, now we have to be afraid of Homeland Security.

Someone tell me where we live again ?

Merry Christmas

What Brought You To This Place ?

I crossed over to the left tonight, left wing blogs that is, and stopped at a site I have been leaving some comments on.

It started because he had some cartoons of Mitch McConnell riding a military style elephant, sword in hand, and it was referencing the fact that the Republicans are taking a stand about the tax cuts.

We had some back and forth, I threw some facts and numbers at him, he attacked me and made out that I was an idiot, and I said that maybe I was a little more than he could handle, and then tipped my hat and left it at that.

Tonight, I stopped in, and saw there were comments to my defense, but I left it alone, but checked the newer post.

The post was complaining about the Republicans holding up the tax cuts, but what got me was in the comments section.

The first commenter had called people that were not following along with this " Progressive Agenda " , he was calling them ' Pigheaded ". He also talked how the new congress would find it difficult to " Radically Upset the System "

While I was reading these things, I was feeling like I had snuck into a private meeting and was reading things not meant for me to see, like a secret spy, but then it became real to me.

I see these things on the news, and I know these people exist, and I have been in forums and have had some great debate with some left wing people over issues, but for some reason when I read these words tonight, it just slapped me in the face.

I did leave a comment myself, at first, I wanted to say something just to let them know I was there, and let them know I read those words, and knew their evil plans.

But it is everywhere, it is all around us, it is slowly consuming every part of our lives, so I asked simply.........

" What brought you to this place ?

After everything every American has endured and suffered through to get to where we are today, to even allow you and I the freedom to debate who may be right or wrong, why would you allow the same threat into our Government, and our lives that our Fathers and Grandfathers fought to destroy years ago ? "

Why do they do it ?

What makes them decide that the American way of life, the same kind life that people cross oceans for, and climb fences for, and risk death for, the same way of life that affords them safety, and protection to speak, what makes it so bad that they would want to destroy it, and bring about a " Progressive Agenda "

What brought them to this place ?

" If we lose freedom here, there's no place to escape to "

Spending Or Amnesty ?

Here we see Mitch McConnell from Kentucky on the floor telling the Senate of the Republican resistance against any other business until the the finances have been hammered out.

This makes sense to me, and I am sure it makes sense to millions of other Americans that have to watch as our leaders walk past us and pay no attention to what we say.

I stopped at a blogsite this morning, and saw cartoons that portrayed McConnell on an elephant outfitted for war, with swords drawn, and below it a dumbfounded liberal that was disgusted because the Republicans were doing the " same old tactics " keeping them from moving forward.

What forward direction are the Democrats trying to move in the last few days before Christmas ?

Well, for one thing, why is Harry Reid pushing the Dream Act ? And why has he laid out 4 versions of it so far ?

What would be more important to you right now ?

Repairing our economy and jobs for Americans, or Amnesty for illegal aliens ?

Senator Jeff Sessions can't be the only one that has the stones to say no to Harry Reid NO !

We need to get a handle on this now.

MERRY CHRISTMAS !

Dream Act

It seems to me that the lame ducks in Washington are carrying a heavy load on their backs with all the people jumping on looking to get bills passed before the e Republicans come in and start cleaning up things.

Do we really need another path to citizenship when these people have all this time to become legal ?

This is just a chance to allow an amnesty bill to slip through, and allow a larger Democratic voting base to keep the Socialistic agenda moving forward.

These people have had enough time, and have used enough American resources to get where they are. The clock stops now.

Anthony Weiner should be prosecuted for treason and shipped to the border with whatever he has in his pockets, and anyone else there in the crowd that could not produce citizenship should have been loaded up and carted off as well.

We have moved beyond the point of just looking the other way, and just waving our hands and saying " well, he is a good guy, he is OK "

No more, it is time to stop being a doormat for the rest of the world. We need to stand up and say NO MORE !

You are hurt, hungry ? Fine, here are some bandages, an aspirin, and a sandwich, go home. We have our own people here in this country need to work, that need to survive, and when we resolve our issues, then maybe we could allow a few to enter.

Don't agree ?

Then open your door and let them come and stay at your house and eat your food for free. Let some illegals walk right in and have the run of your home and take whatever they need without giving back, and see how long you allow it to happen.

For months now, I have heard folks say " I can see November from my house "
Well, here we are.
Last night I cruised around the 24 hour news channels and listened to all the predictions and all the polls, and all the reasons as to why each candidate was ahead or behind in their state.
Are the Republicans really looking at making a sweep because the they are the better candidate, or just the lesser of the two evils ?
Recently I posted about the extent others would go to just to draw attention and cause violence. I used the incident at a Rand Paul event, not to endorse Paul, but just to call attention to the extremes of some of the folks that had different views.
This brought some information to my attention that I did not know about, courtesy of my friend Laryen that I had not read before, and as expected caused some debate with another friend of mine, Jeremy .
My point is, today the theatrics end, the debate ends, and all the analyzing ends.
Will this be a day of hope and change ? Who knows, but a large majority of Americans are not happy with the way the current administration, and the Democratic Congress and Senate have done things.
A lesser of two evils will probably not make anything any better, but at this point, Americans are drowning and they are reaching for for anything that is thrown to them.
That's what makes it sad, that these are the best we could come up with.

Joy Behar Is Educating Us All

Here is your modern day liberal.

Here is your defeated left wing.

Yes indeed, she has nothing else to say, not one good word about her incumbent Harry Reid, just attack Sharon Angle.

And whats the big deal with coming to the South Bronx ? Is she admitting that it is a trash hole right there in her back yard that people should be afraid of ? Is she playing some sort of race card ?

The best part was Behar screaming about Angle going to hell. Behar is supposed to be an Agnostic, pretty much the same as an atheist.

Please don't try to school me on the difference because when it comes down to it, she does not believe in god, so why would she think someone would go to hell ?

Behar is nothing but a twisted bitter prune, but she is doing a great job showing the liberals for what they really are

Lauren Valle vs Rand Paul

Top row, second second from the left.

That's the woman that got her head " stomped " the other night at a Rand Paul event.

A verified paid protester that seems to have nothing better to do but the work of the left wing.

This is a group mug shot of Valle and her friends taken by Port of Fourchon Harbour Police and LaFourche Parish Sheriffs office for trespass and vandalism.

The left has many of these kinds of people sent out to stir up violence and to cause problems, that is their only job in life, their only responsibility, and they hold a rather large flame to a very short fuse.

Take a close look, enlarge he video if you have to, but look closely at Valle's face between the 14 through the 26 second time frames.
She is laughing.
Laughing at all of them because she accomplished what she came for.
And another thing, who took the video ?
It was real convenient that they were in the right place at the right time, don't you think ?
I should have named this post Lauren Valle scams us all.

No Support and No Change

I am not at all biased as to the sites I visit. I am open to every ones ideas about music, food, relationships, and yes of course, politics.
This morning was no different, and I made my rounds reading the feelings of some folks thinking Steve Colbert should be drug through the streets, and some thinking he is a shining example of just what a huge joke Congress has become.
I turned to a blog I sometimes go to today that must have picked up on the posts that I had done on the unemployment issues, and the people left behind in this Country, and he too had told a story of how cuts had left his family and friends huddled together with next to nothing.
Their Government had made promises to them that never appeared, and they were left with a realization that no help was ever going to reach them.
We see in the news today the riots in their streets, and the attacks against their police, and we hear people like Glenn Beck and Neil Cavuto try to explain to us that without the cuts to these extreme Government handouts, their Country will be bankrupt.
I read on his site that there was a lot of warning, and so much time to prepare, but the people, including himself always thought it could never happen to a country like his.

Today on the Unemployed Friends forum, I read this...

Below are the results from my calls to finance committee members - as you can see, this is a political very hot potato - nobody wants to commit. Please call and ask for their support - especially your Republican representatives.

Senate Finance Committee Members by Party Affiliation

* John Cornyn, Texas--202-224-2934-mailbox full- staffer didn't know

Let me just say, they don't care.
They really don't. I hate to be the one to lay it out here, but with them losing ground in the primaries, and the tea party people, and the Republicans rolling out this contract thing about all this great stuff they are gonna do, no one cares about the family of people that will come home tonight, and sit around the table while the kids work on homework, and Dad figures how he is gonna get the light bill paid, and Mom is on the phone trying to get a couple days extension on the cable bill.
No one cares they have a half a tank a gas to get around till Friday, but the Republican robocaller will call and ask for a $25.00 donation
No one cares that the boss told Dad that this pipe job will be shutting down because of permits in another week, so he may be laid off for a few months.


You know what Obama, sometimes a lot of us wish you would put the damn thing in D and then hold it in the floor, just make sure you have some of them Washington folks with you

Coming To An End

I could not have said it better myself.

A ruinous tactic.

The out of touch people in D.C. are going against what the people say, and they refuse to listen.

The argument over Democrats and Republicans getting anything right is just wasted breath. Both sides are are unaware of what the majority request.

I did say majority, meaning more are against what Obama is pushing than those that are for it. The majority of the people are not being heard, and are being shoved aside like trash.

This is why I can agree with George Will, and think that we will soon see the decline of this administration.

The actions of our President and our elected representatives will leave a scar on the left that will never heal, and those that follow the herd and allow these tactics to succeed will also branded, and sent home by the majority.

This is what the leaders in D.C. think about the majority, and this is a perfect example of why big government is bad.

They choose not to hear us now, then listen to what we have to say in November

Anger From Both Sides

So who would you vote for if the election was today ?

Think it's time to clean house ?

Out of 1000 likely voters polled, only 36 percent would stay on the side of the Democrats.

The 22 percent that are undecided are the ones that tell the bigger story here because we need to know if the Republicans can get back on track, and why the Democrats want to destroy our country.

It is no secret that there are some worthless Republicans in D.C., and they should be looking for some retirement property as we speak, but the Dem's have no idea.

They honestly believe they are serving the people.

Guess it's time for a rude awakening

Watch the second half of Glenn's interview with Pat Caddell

I am glad a Democrat said that.

He said Democrat, Republican, it has nothing to do with it, AMERICANS feel that their country is slipping away.

He also had a message for the people in Washington, in both parties. He said the American people are coming, and they are coming for you.

He also said that the elected officials considered us nothing more than sheep that they could just run over.

I do not know about you people, but there are no sheep in my house.

I think I will add that guy to my Christmas card list

The House Did It

I watched the house pass the health care bill tonight with just 1 republican voting yea.
I wonder who that was ?
With all the outrage, all the protest's, all the people standing in D.C. and around the Nation telling them NO ! why would they think this is what we want ?
Granted, it still has a long way to go, but our voices are not being heard

We Did Our Part

In Virginia, we did our part.
We got up, we got the word out, and we voted.

Now, it has been a long day, but worth it.

Time for some rest.

Fight the good fight again in the morning

Don't Get Mad At Me Bob

I stopped on a blog that is written by someone that is an Obama supporter the other day.

I do read him regularly and do leave comments on occasion.

In his last post, I read again about how he believes that the Republicans are twisting the truth, and are greedy, propaganda spreading, right wing wackos

The typical comments I see on many left wing sites, but this post ended in a dangerous comment

" They are all about money, greed, and deceit and when you try to take a little from them, watch out for them, because they will stop at nothing to save their precious money. If there is ever an organized effort to start a civil war against Republicans, sign me up! "

I had left a comment that questioned his need for a war on Republicans, which was deleted, and then later received a message from him that said

" to Lot2learn, your an idiot, stop visiting my site. "

I guess his " war " effort is a secret, or maybe the realization that what the Republicans have been saying is true, and is leaving him a little ashamed

Putting the blame on Bush has exceeded it's time limit, and it is time to realize that this administration is wrong

It's OK over there in leftie-land, we can still save this Country

Put the Kool-Aid down and take a step back

Open your eyes and see for yourself that we do not want to bankrupt our nation, we do not want communist czars, we do not want tax cheats managing the IRS, and we do not want big government or socialism

A war with the Republicans ?

A civil war ?

Is that what we really need ?

Bush Didn't Do this

What the hell is this ?
Its a freaking joke that's what it is.
I can't believe the Dem's would roll this garbage out and expect anyone to think it is a solution

What a waste.
Admit it Dem's, you people are looking more stupid every day.
You know what I am waiting for ? Someone to say " George Bush caused this ! He made us all stupid ! It's his fault ! "
Anyone, and I mean anyone that can get on a blog and defend this mess is an absolute idiot.


This is what we have leading this mess. The grand and wonderful pair.
Yeah right, not a brain between them
Its a good thing they are on the way out, no one will vote for these two idiots next election cycle




And this waste of breath.
Come on, we all know she got the job from Obama so she would keep her mouth shut about something Obama did not want told
There is your argument there Dem's. Get on here and tell everyone I am wearing a tinfoil hat and trying to start a conspiracy.
You poor blind Kool-Aid zombies would hold hands and jump off a bridge if Obama told you too


One more blast before I go take a pill for the headache I have from all this stupidity
This one here should be put on a rail and run right out of DC and dropped in the Potomac. Let him float out to the bay and into the ocean. Maybe Gilligan will pick him up and take him somewhere because he has no business making decisions and spending money that will affect my life.
None of the idiots should be allowed to spend another dime, or make another decision.
No one voted for this, you voted for an empty box from a bunch of snake oil salesmen.
Obama lied to you, he lied to me, and is forcing his agenda on us.
You know what Dem's ?
I am tired of telling you people to wake up.
Stay in your Kool-Aid stupor and continue follow Obama, hoping to get a whiff of the gas that comes from the crap he is full of. continue to become weak, lose your freedoms, and become dependant on the government
We will remain strong, self reliant, prepared to defend, and completely unforgiving of what you voted in, and what you caused to happen to our Country
2010 can't get here soon enough

Lot 2 Learn

If you have been keeping up with the post's and comments between a fellow blogger and myself, you would know that no grey area exists between the views of the left and right
In a few comments, I have been once again called racist, and in so many words, just plain stupid.
Am I the only one that has a lot to learn ?
Could I be completely wrong in thinking that this Obama government is making some very bad decisions ?
Where is the transparency that we were promised, and why are we only hearing one side of all the issues that face us ?



An "open forum " that was to have unsolicited questions, right ?
I really want to know all sides of the debate, not just what our government wants us to hear
And the health care infomercial, what the heck was that ?




I may have a lot to learn, but I do know that there is more than one side to any debate, especially to one that would give the government the ability to deny treatment to some people because of the cost. The idea of pick and choose for treatment sounds extremely biased, and Obama said out of his own mouth that maybe a pill would be better than surgery.
You can't take that out of context




This is shocking to me, with all I read about " disgruntled Republicans " out there doing everything they can to block all the good that the Democrats are trying to do for us.
Many would call it grandstanding, but how many of these people that voted for this even read it ?
And was it not to be posted on the web for the American people to read for 5 days ?
What happened to that ?
This one project that Obama wants for us would mean more taxes and more job loss



Wait a minute, what did Obama tell everyone on the campaign trail ?????




It seems that Obama lied about the taxes



It seems that we are not being told all there is about his health care plan
The security of our nation is important to me, and I believe that we should stay on the defensive at all times.
Protests in Iran, and threats from North Korea are troubling to all of us



Could it be that Obama does not really know what to do ?
Is his lack of experience starting to show ?
Remember this from last year ?



One comment was made that I really did not have anything to say, and that I was misinformed.
Let me tell you what I know

Our government has gotten to big, and it is completely out of control

Selling out to China and other countries is a mistake

I do not believe in global warming theories

I believe Americans should be armed, and have the ability to protect themselves from any threat

I believe that God does exist

I believe that it is time to drill for oil and gas in our own country

I believe I will be called names, and branded many things for saying these things, but will never be afraid to do so
