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.

It's Almost Over

Last night the extension of the Bush Tax plan was extended, and I learned this morning that Harry Reid had pulled the Omnibus plan from the floor.

Should we consider these Victories for Conservatives ?

Should we perhaps take a breath and relax now and enjoy the Christmas break with the knowledge that possibly with the addition of the new Republican blood that enters D.C. in a few days, things may take a turn for the better ?

What bothers me the most about our current condition, is that when any information a conservative, or someone that is not part of the "progressive " movement presents to prove that an idea is bad, a decision is wrong, or a policy will cause more damage, then the person becomes labeled as crazy, a hatemonger, a racist, and just plain attacked by the left wing machine.

Yes, Obama has been getting some time from the people on SNL, and the late night talk shows, but here we sit with an administration that promised a lot of hope and change, and now all we have is the hope for the change that is coming .

We all know what the problems are, why not just stop trying to offend and get them taken care of ?

I sit here and look at my Christmas Tree, and my two young boys getting ready to go play in the snow, and thank God that my little corner of the world is safe and secure for now, but in the back of my mind I know that there are people in Washington that do not think my opinions are credible, and that worries me, and it makes me worry for my children .

There are 14 days left until the new year, and the new crop of Republicans go to work.

It's almost over,

or is it ?

Merry Christmas

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 "
