I agree that the health care situation is bleak and needs some attention. I also think that nothing good can come of something that massive being quickly put together in a few short months by a few politicians and lawyers trying to push it through immediately and without consideration for the healthy distrust that centuries of experience have taught Americans to have for politicians. The Patriot Act is a case in point. The country was in a crisis, so the president and the rest of the Washington aparatus quickly formulated and pushed through a bill that a year earlier would have been unthinkable. Because there was a crisis, the American people did not require that it be thought through and given time.

George,
Exactly right. also
Christian, the word I was too tired to think of is do away with the "Federal Reserve" But quite a coincidence that the 4 presidents that did were all killed. Huckabee also agreed, Ron Paul and I think Alan Keys.

At the time the Patriot Act was being formulated and pushed into law, people who questioned or disagreed with it, in part or in whole, were labeled "un-American", "fringe", "in league with the terrorists" and other epithets that we are hearing now regarding people who question or disagree with the "Health Care bills" being pushed. A new aspect that has been added to this one is race. Many people who voted for Obama are now being called "racist" for disagreeing with him on any point. It seems that a declared crisis with one far-reaching "solution" presented as "the only true solution" is the most effective way to unite people in polarization and create radical groups who will abandon reason in their zeal to follow.

Interesting, that in a country that is predominately white that racism would be used against that group. I don't think for one moment that the powerful elitist want universal health care for all. It is very hard for people to understand that sometimes people come along that are not part of the system and God ordains that they should be allowed to be in a position of power for His sake. I am in  a wait and see with Obama and I don't for one moment think he has been in long enough to tell. I remember listening to this one radio host and Obama had been in a literal week and he was labeling him with things that he could not have had anything thing to do with. Again, I am in a wait and see mode, for me that seems the most logical thing to do at this point. My position is not unique to Obama either, I have took this stand on all the previous Presidents and usually after the first 2 and one half years it is more evident to the direction they are going. Up until then usually they are dealing with the previous Presidents policies. Even though I know it is the end of time, I am convinced that the time of the prophecy "and this Gospel shall be preached into all the world" and then the end shall come. I would doubt very seriously if Obama is part of the conspiracy that is transpiring in this country. I watched the third building fall on 9/11 and I know something is going on.

Now I do not believe my eyes as I read in a whole different view that people vote unknowling why they voted but will give it a couple of years before they know one way or the other if the president is good or not, These people do not need to vote. But this exactly is what I have been saying. They never voted for character, background, experience in political agendas,  this time they voted color. Unbelivable that people would do a trick like that and jepordize America and then set back and find justification for this mess. I just read this article today,  again just letting what other people can see and think as this is growing in tremedous bounds.

"Getting Even - America Hijacked!"
By Ron Ewart, President

© Copyright August 31, 2009 - All Rights Reserved

 
It can be said with certainty that every single American living today had absolutely nothing to do with slavery, slave ships, slave trading, or the owning of slaves.  It can be said with additional certainty that almost every American living today find slave trading, slave ships, slavery and slave ownership, in any form, abhorrent.  It simply is not a part of the American culture to believe in such things, nor is it sanctioned in American law.
 
Consequently, every single American living today, white or any other color, has absolutely nothing to feel guilty for, when it comes to the injustices that were inflicted on the black race, in America's past and in fact, the whole world's past.  We have no obligation to apologize for our ancestors, nor do we have any responsibility for reparation to the victims of these injustices, or to the dismantling of American freedom and liberty to achieve it.
 
America has gone to great lengths to heal the wounds of those injustices and a huge price, in American dollars and American sweat, blood and tears, has been paid by the American taxpayer and yes, even the American white volunteer, to make amends.  Some may believe we have gone way overboard and now have created a special class of Americans  (ethnic preferences in schools, colleges and the work place).  The hard truth is, Black Americans live better in America than any black-skinned people on the face of this planet, as well they should.
 
But ariseth from the bowels of a corrupt Chicago, comes a mixed-race community organizer, a savior, a Messiah, the Chosen One, to lift blacks out of poverty and get them the reparations they believe they so richly deserve for past injustices, paid for by the perceived perpetrators of those injustices, white Americans.
 
Comes now a man who participated in a Chicago church for twenty years that preached "Black Liberation Theology", a theology that believes, with vehemence and much gnashing of teeth, that white America is evil and white America is still trying to keep black Americans in a state of perpetual poverty, if not slavery.
 
The truth is, way too many black Americans keep themselves in their own self-induced poverty and slavery, by adhering to the false and corrupt concept of Black Liberation Theology and allowing government to convince them that they are victims and only government can referee their grievances, against white America of course.  But with refereeing comes the requirement that the so-called "victims" vote for the referees to keep them in office and over 90% of black Americans vote for Democrat/referees.  One could ask, who is being manipulated in this scenario?
 
Many blacks keep themselves in their own chains by accepting filthy rap music as their cultural mantra and gutter-minded, corrupt, black sports figures to be their heroes.  It appears that many Blacks have yet to discover that he who seeks the "best" in himself and others, rises to the top, while he who seeks the worst, sinks to the bottom.
 
Now, black Americans feel empowered.  Look at the people this false Messiah from Chicago has added to his cabinet and to the thirty plus Czars he has added as advisors.  People like Van Jones (the green Czar), a black American and an avowed, radicalized communist, who will use any amount of public money to create green jobs, even if those green jobs do nothing to increase our Gross Domestic Product, or add any significant benefit to society.  And people like Mark Lloyd, (the communication Czar) a black American and a socialist/Marxist who believes that the Hugo Chavez Revolution in Venezuela is something we should emulate.  If Lloyd's Czarship has any authority under American law, real or imagined, this man will set out to follow his beliefs to the letter, unless he is shown the door, and soon.  Why does Obama tolerate people like this to advise him?  It raises serious questions about his leadership, or his not-too-hidden socialist agenda.
 
There are many groups in America that are inhabited by only members of the black race who seek not only reparation, but retribution.  One of those organizations is ACORN and Obama was a dedicated participant in ACORN activities before becoming a U. S. Senator and then President, as were others with whom he has associated.  ACORN, an organization that works against the principles of freedom and liberty, is funded by the very government (your money) they wish to transform to their radical perception of equality.
 
Obama's whole background, from the day he was born, is filled with communists, socialists, Marxists, community activists and others who seek a massive redistribution of American wealth to those who have not found their way to, or have not taken advantage of, unequaled in any country ..... American opportunity.
 
Blacks feel so empowered today that on August 25th, 2009 at Rep. Jim Moran's (D-VA) Town Hall meeting on Obama Health Care, held at South Lakes High School in Reston, VA, a black, local policeman (or security guard) by the name of Wesley Cheeks, Jr. decided to make his own law, under threat of force, by forcing a protestor, outside the town hall meeting, to take down a protest sign because it had a not-too-flattering picture of HIS president, Barrack Hussein Obama, on it.  He threatened the protestor with being charged with trespass if he didn't take the sign down, or any other charge the officer could come up with.  When the protestor said this is supposed to be America, the Black Officer fired back: "Not any more it isn't, OK?".  So much for the First Amendment under an Obama Black Liberation Oligarchy.  Here is the link to the short video that the protestor took of the officer's attempt to squelch his right of free speech:
 
http://www.youtube.com:80/user/DissentFromDayOne.
 
Names for Black Americans have gone from the "n" word, to Negroes, to Blacks, to African- Americans.  No other race in America has a hyphenated name.  To make it equal should we not then have European-Americans, Asian-Americans, Indian-Americans, South and Central America-Americans, Canadian-Americans, Australian-Americans, Russian-Americans, or how about just American-Americans?  Of course not, that would be ludicrous.
 
There is no doubt that the Black race for several thousand years, has suffered greatly at the hands of planet-wide discrimination because the human race is, by its very nature, discriminatory.  But then so have fat people, skinny people, ugly people, tall people, short people, diseased people, retarded people, crippled people and a whole host of other people, been discriminated against for the same reason.  Those that excel in this world, get over it and rise above it.
 
History is replete with people who have some malady or another to overcome and in spite of that malady, achieve a goal they have set for themselves.  All of life is full of obstacles.  If people let obstacles get in their way, they drown in a cesspool of self pity, or blame others for their condition or situation.  Perhaps one day, these "victims" will learn that life is tough and it takes courage to live it.  Until then, they blame others for their suffering and use the power of government to "lift them up" to their perception of equality, no matter who has to pay, or what principles of liberty they have to violate.
 
It is clear that Obama and his minion's design to "reform" America, is a reformation that holds little connection to a Constitutional Republic.  It's sole purpose is to elevate a single race (black and perhaps Latino Americans) to a position, not equal with all other races, but superior to all other races.  Hitler did this to the Germanic people and the result was one of the worst holocausts in all of human history.
 
The other goal of this black reformation, retribution and reparation, is to rob the public treasury and transfer America's wealth (through exorbitant taxation and unconstitutional legislation) to this now, government-mandated, superior class of Americans.  They intend to get even for whatever perceived injustices that have been instituted upon them for the last 5,000 years and they now have the power to do it.
 
Through this smooth-talking Black president, that belies his real agenda, America has been hijacked by Black Liberation Theology (BLT) and the heralded ministers of BLT intend to reap the rewards of the power they now hold, by using the socialists' methods of the Cloward-Piven and Saul Alinsky community-organizing strategies to achieve it.  They may well receive their rewards if freedom-loving Americans, white, black, yellow or red, don't install a permanent and impassable barrier to BLT objectives and install it damn soon.

Tinka,

 Obviously, everyone, including you vote for individuals that you don't know completely. And even if an individual says something that may not be what they do in the long run. My statement was not intended to imply ignorance but rather to let you know I understand human nature. AGAIN LET ME BE CLEAR AS POSSIBLE, I THINK THE PRESIDENT IS DOING A GOOD JOB. It is interesting that you would imply (not surprising) judging from your previous post that someone voted for Obama based on race alone. Nor have you at any point offered a solution but rather a constant drab of criticism and jealousy.----- No, you are right the people that are here did not do slavery but their parents did and you are still profeting from it. Actually, segregation ended in my lifetime, which means that it has not been that long ago and indeed some alive are and were responsible for that. Some have deep seated prejudices that are not even evedent to themselves and for that reason they are blind to their prejudices. Again, your obsession and congrats to Bush belie your true heart. Tinka, dont let an S added to your name really describe you character, take a deep look at yourself and then you will see others clearly.

You are right, Christian, that there are some white people who still harbour prejudices as a result of the prejudices held by their parents. There are also black people who see prejudice where there is none as a result of their parents (or themselves, for older people) seeing prejudice in most white people, and they often reflect it back. Between this and the natural racial prejudices that exist in every race, many white and black Americans harbour prejudice against each other.

Another thing that history tells us is that every race and ethnicity has held itself superior to the others and exhibited it through various expressions of prejudice. Prejudice is a part of human nature that exists is every race and ethnicity. One of the earliest advanced civilazations was African. Egypt grew into greatness on the backs of its white slaves. The Ethiopian empire flourished on its black slaves. Almost every person of European descent is progeny of slaves, owned by the nobility. Most people of African descent living outside of Africa descend from people who were enslaved and sold to the white slave traders by black African slavers. Many people of Chinese descent living in the USA are the descendents of slaves. At one time, almost every Central and South American people we held in slavery by another. Recently we saw the horrors of ethinic prejudice in Rwanda. The ethnic cleansings on every front in WWI were epic. During WWII, the German elite enslaved and murdered the Jewish people en masse. The Chinese were notoriously prejudiced against every other culture for millenia, as were the Japanese, who enslaved everyone they could get their hands on not many years ago. The governments of the USA and Canada still segregate the Native American populations in reservations, and into the late 70s were imposing unspeakable pain on them through the "Residential Schools." In short, racial and ethnic prejudice is, and always has been, a dominant factor in every group, and none are exempt or above it, hispanic, black, asian, white, or any other. That is something that only comes on an individual level.

You are so right prejudice is on both sides,which is a real shame because we are all related to each other. My Grandmother is white and my grandfather is Indian, America is such a melting pot. But I have had a number of experiences that let me know that prejudice is alive and well here. I make it a point and try to make sure that I am not judging a person by the color of their skin but rather by the content of their heart. I have learned though that some catch phrases are used by individuals who are in deed prejudice, some not knowing and some knowing. Remember we are talking about America the here and now and while it is good information to know that others have endured the same prejudices that by no means lessens its effect on the one experiencing it at the time. Again, I relate my experience to the man who said that Obama was destroying the chances of another black man becoming president. But when I asked did that mean that George destroyed the chances of a white man becoming president he gave no answer. Obviously, he was indeed making Obama a justification for his inherent prejudice. In the case of Obama I can definitely see that there are some (though not all) that have deep seated prejudice against him because of the color of his skin. Again on the week after he became President there were those trumpeting his failures when the fact is he has had little time to make a dent in this mess.  Tinka, in printing things like blacks listening to rap and the like do not know what they are talking about. Plus they fail to mention the thousands of whites that listen to Rock and Roll (taken from having sex in the back of a car) to acid rock (which I will not describe). They talk about the plight of the black man when in fact they know nothing except their own prejudices.






You are right, Christian, that there are some white people who still harbour prejudices as a result of the prejudices held by their parents.

Your points are valid and taken. I also have heard the remarks directed at President Obama that are without substance, but attack culture and race. I have also heard similar comments directed at President Bush. And no person of any race knows the plight of another when they attack for any reason. They know only their own plight, and their own prejudices. People of every race listen to and perform rap, rock and roll, acid rock, jazz, blues, country, etc. I find that music is a great common denominator that brings people of various races together. At the same time, I think Tinka would agree that music is quite divisive on the generational level. Lol.

While it is true that we are talking about the here and now in America, I find that for myself one of the best ways to avoid sinking into self-pity, anger, bitterness, etc over the pain that others may put me through is to educate myself on what others have gone through, and are going through here and around the world. When I realize that anything I have ever endured is nothing compared to what others have had to live and die with, my focus goes to them, and I am grateful that my troubles are so relatively small. Have you ever faced a mob with machetes and spears hacking your family, children, grandchildren and friends to pieces because of their ethnicity? I know people from Rwanda who did. How can I look myself in the mirror after complaining about prejudice leveled against me, when there are people who have been through so much worse? Yes, prejudice is alive and well here in the USA, as it is in every country on earth. Every race in the America of here and now is guilty of acting in prejudice against the other. Not one can claim innocence or moral high ground. I have seen and experienced it too. But I also know that each of us is fortunate to be experiencing it here and not in parts of the world where it is lethal, as opposed to simply insulting and hurtful.

What???uuhhh? Don't recall I said anything about Obama with the music or rap.  Where did you get that?

You must have me confused with heresay from someone else. Although according to EGW the type of music christians should use to unite all races is soft melodious that affect the heart in the same way. Not to give the beat of each individuals desires in all directions that are not pleasing to God.

 Maybe I mentioned somewhere someplace about rap music tried in the church and was very disagreeable with it. But that is a new one to me about Connecting it to Obama.  You failed to mention that years ago I wrote we liked Obama, but when he came back to show his stuff we were horrified at the agenda of the man and his eloquent speeches went out the door.

Tinka,

When you post things without the added benefit of rejecting the views expressed therein you align yourself with said views.You posted Ron Ewart's message as though his thought coincided with yours and he (in talking about black people) talked about there like for rap music. I was simply responding to what you were posting. I have heard his type of ignorant views before, on the state of the black race in which he knows very little. Just as I would not label the white race with they fact that they align themselves with corrupt sports figures or listen to the perverted Rock music. ---- You by posting show a little of your minds eye and what you believe to be true, even though it is just your opinion, though you don't seem to think so. You have yet to express anything outside your venomous distaste of the clothes that Michelle Obama wears and your seeming conspiracy on the Health care issue. Even though the current system cannot be maintained you seem incensed by the fact he and others want to try and fix the problem.

Christian, If you were president, a senator, or a congressman, would you vote on a sweeping bill that completely changes the face of America is you had not gone over the bill backwards and forwards, cross referenced with healthcare professionals, and studied every detail of it to the point where you were not only conversant on every point in it, but could be considered an authority on it, to the point that you would not have to revert to "talking point" but actually know that you constituency knew and agreed with it? Members of congress are call "Representatives." They are there to represent the majority of their constituency. That is their job. Obama and almost all of the members of congress who are in favour of the healthcare bill produced by Nancy Pelosi are NOT familiar with it, and they admit that! I have no problem with with someone taking the initiative to fix the healthcare mess, but I have a very big problem with it being done in a panic hurry and without time and thoughtful consideration being put into it. Are you not at least a little alarmed when the government ramrods thing through as fast as possible, discouraging debate, alternative plans, or discussion. The speed and secrecy, and the unwillingness to discuss it are red flags to many of us who have studied politics and history.

George,

I like the spirit of this debate coming from you and you do have some valid points. However, if you look at the way Washington D. C. works you will understand why he is trying to rush the bill. He (Obama) understands that if he can get a bill passed in the senate that the House will be responsible for combining the concerns of each branch of Congress and then it would come out as one complet bill in which the Congress would them vote on. The President understands that in the not to distant past that once the process was stopped and the Republicans gained control of the House and Senate that the debate was completely stiffled and that is the reason we have the current system. He (Obama) understands that between the vote after the congress has drafted a complete bill that there would indeed be time for debate. I can almost guarantee you that if this bill is defeated we will not have universal coverage and the majority of us will suffer in the future (and not to distante future) because of it. It is not as you might think because he is trying to push something down your throats, that is (already) being done. I am sure you understand that the present crisis in healthcare is more serious than many know. And I can tell you from (first) hand experience that there are multitudes of individuals, even unbeknowings to them, who are denied (proper) life altering medical care because of the lack of money. One thing is for sure every person should be provided medical care and it not be based on the bottom line. AGAIN THE REASON FOR THE RUSH IS HE UNDERSTANDS IF YOU DONT DO SOMETHING NOW IT WILL BE TO LATE. Now, what I am trying to stress to you is they the medical industry understands that in the next few years at the present cost advances, that many millions more will indeed be left without medical insurance and will suffer and perhaps die because of it. THE REPUBLICANS, IN CASE YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN, IN THE LAST EIGHT YEARS NEVER MADE ANY PROPOSAL REGUARDING HEALTH CARE EXCEPT TO GIVE THE DRUP COMPANIES A MORITORIUM ON GENERIC DRUGS. DON'T YOU REALIZE THAT IT WAS THE REPUBLICANS THAT PAST AN UNFUNDED DRUG BENEFITS PACKEGE THAT ENDED UP GIVNING DRUG COMPANIES IN THIS COUNTRY BILLIONS OF UNFUNDED DOLLARS. Yes, something needs to be done (now) before it is to late, and by the mere fact that the insurance companies are fighting so hard against it lets me know we are going in the right direction. I WILL BET MY LAST DOLLAR THAT IF THE CURRENT MOMENTUM IS STOPPED THAT WE WILL NOT HAVE A CORRECTION OF THE CURRENT TREND AND WE WILL END UP AT THE MERCY OF THE INSURANCE AGENCIES, WHO ALREADY SET POLOCIY FOR YOU WITHOUT YOU HAVING OR CONGRESS ANY SAYSO.

George,


I want to make myself clear, the insurance companies and drug companies already rewrote the health care policies and you or I had no say so. Again, for years there has been a study of the healthcare system and how to make it better, The Administration is not going into this thing blind. However they know they are working within a small window of opportunity to get this done for the American people. The storms that are being raised against them have nothing to do with wanting to be thourow but rather the insurance companies and drug companies want to keep control. You are fooling yourself if you think that they want to offer you an option for review. You watch and mark my words, if given the opportuinity they will not allow any changes to take place or for there to be universal coverage etc...

George,
I want to commend you on your very eloquent way of explaining the racism and subjects on this post. I agree.  I realize being straight forward and to the point real quick with out much explanation may really give impressions of great bluntness.

All my young life I was not subjected to racism or difference. Therefore when older I did not much understand why we had to have it. I knew history but also realized that is what is was "history"and went into everything with the feeling of all equal and all American as when older and in business and among all.

Now I realize that racism "has to be evidently pounded continually into the cultures growing up". No I did not have that and therefore I tried to relate on here that I have friends that are like me and we have a wonderful relationship and it is a really good feeling. almost like a marriage where the love grows.  It is hard for me to understand as you so well put it the racism in the world of which I know is true but also the great tool of the devil. I have a good feeling of which I know how it must be like it is going to be in heaven (smile, if I can just get there).

I just picked up on this Ron Ewert that someone sent me. and was showing how the other side thinks and why possible uprising of the people could possibly happen. and just this early morning I just recieved another e-mail of article of why the Healthcare of Obama will not go down. But on an individual basis these are the points we started to see as facts happening also. Something yes needs to be done with the insurance companies but here is someone else's view.....and why this will not be done with out a fight.

Subject: interesting

 
Dr. Krauthammer is on Fox News. He is an M.D. and he is paralyzed from the
neck down. Be forewarned on what is happening. A friend went to hear Charles
Krauthammer. He listened with 25 others in closed room. What he says here,
is NOT 2nd-hand, but 1st. You would do well to read and pass this along to
EVERYBODY that loves his country. This is VERY serious for the direction of
our country. The ramifications are staggering for us and our children.

Last Monday was a profound evening, hearing Dr. Charles Krauthammer speaking to
the Center for the American Experiment. He is brilliant intellectual, seasoned and articulate. He is forthright and careful in his analysis, and never resorts to emotions or personal insults. He is NOT a fear monger nor an extremist in his comments and views. He is a fiscal conservative, and has a Pulitzer Prize for writing. He is a frequent contributor to Fox News and writes weekly for the Washington Post. The entire room was held spellbound during his talk. I have shared this with many of you and several have asked me to summarize his comments, as we are living in uncharted waters
economically and internationally.

Even 2 Dems at my table agreed with everything he said! If you feel like forwarding this to those who are open minded and have not drunk the Kool-Aid, feel free. Summary of his comments:

1. Mr. Obama is a very intellectual, charming individual. He is not to be underestimated. He is a cool customer who doesn't show his emotions. It's very hard to know what's behind the mask. Taking down the Clinton dynasty from a political neophyte was an amazing accomplishment. The Clintons still do not understand what hit them. Obama was in the perfect place at the perfect time.

2. Obama has political skills comparable to Reagan and Clinton. He has a way of making you think he's on your side, agreeing with your position, while doing the opposite. Pay no attention to what he SAYS; rather, watch what he DOES!

3. Obama has a ruthless quest for power. He did not come to Washington to
make something out of himself, but rather to change everything, including
dismantling capitalism. He can't be straightforward on his ambitions, as the
public would not go along. He has a heavy hand, and wants to level the playing field with income redistribution and punishment to the achievers of society. He would like to model the USA to Great Britain or Canada .

4. His three main goals are to control ENERGY, PUBLIC EDUCATION, AND
NATIONAL HEALTH CARE by the Federal government. He doesn't care about the
auto or financial services industries, but got them as an early bonus. The cap and trade will add costs to everything and stifle growth. Paying for FREE college education is his goal. Most scary is his healthcare program, because if you make it FREE and add 46,000,000 people to a Medicare-type single-payer system, the costs will go through the roof. The only way to control costs is with massive RATIONING of services, like in Canada . God forbid.

5. He has surrounded himself with mostly far-left academic types. No one around him has ever even run a candy store. But they are going to try and run the auto, financial, banking and other industries. This obviously can't work in the long run. Obama is not a socialist; rather he's a far-left secular progressive bent on nothing short of revolution. He ran as a moderate, but will govern from the hard left. Again, watch what he does,
not what he says.

6. Obama doesn't really see himself as President of the United States , but more as a ruler over the world. He sees himself above it all, trying to orchestrate and coordinate various countries and their agendas. He sees moral equivalency in all cultures. His apology tour in Germany and England was a prime example of how he sees America , as an imperialist nation that has been arrogant, rather than a great noble nation that has at times made errors. This is the first President ever who has chastised our allies and
appeased our enemies!

7. He is now handing out goodies. He hopes that the bill (and pain) will not come due until after he is re-elected in 2012. He would like to blame all problems on Bush from the past, and hopefully his successor in the future. He has a huge ego, and Mr. Krauthammer believes he is a narcissist.

8. Republicans are in the wilderness for a while, but will emerge strong. We're pining for another Reagan, but there will never be another like him. Krauthammer believes Mitt Romney, Tim Pawlenty and Bobby Jindahl (except for his terrible speech in February) are the future of the party. Newt Gingrich is brilliant, but has baggage. Sarah Palin is sincere and intelligent, but needs to really be seriously boning up on facts and info if
she is to be a serious candidate in the future. We need to return to the party of lower taxes, smaller government, personal responsibility, strong national defense, and state's rights.

9. The current level of spending is irresponsible and outrageous. We are spending trillions that we don't have. This could lead to hyper-inflation, depression or worse. No country has ever spent themselves into prosperity.
The media is giving Obama, Reid and Pelosi a pass because they love their
agenda. But eventually the bill will come due and people will realize the huge bail outs didn't work, nor will the stimulus package.
These were trillion-dollar payoffs to Obama's allies, unions and the Congress to placate the left, so he can get support for #4 above.

10. The election was over in mid-September when Lehman brothers failed, fear
and panic swept in, we had an unpopular President, and the war was grinding on indefinitely without a clear outcome. The people are in pain, and the mantra of change caused people to act emotionally. Any Dem would have won this election; it was surprising it was as close as it was.

11. In 2012, if the unemployment rate is over 10%, Republicans will be swept
back into power. If it's under 8%, the Dems continue to roll. If it's between 8-10%, it will be a dogfight. It will all be about the economy. I hope this gets you really thinking about what's happening in Washington and Congress. There is a left-wing revolution going on, according to Krauthammer, and he encourages us to keep the faith and join the loyal
resistance. The work will be hard, but we're right on most issues and can reclaim our country, before it's far too late.

Do yourself a long term favor, send this to all who will listen to an intelligent assessment of the big picture. All our futures and children's futures depend on our good understanding of what is really going on in DC!!!! And our action pursuant to that understanding! !! It really IS up to each of us to take individual action!!! Start with educating your friends and neighbors!!!
