Politics Over Country: Uncovered Obama Statement — KSM Will Get ‘Full Military Trial’

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other Guantanamo Bay detainees will be sent to New York to face trial in a civilian federal court. This was an act of war and these individuals should be tried in a Military venue. Another misguided step by the current administration. Despite the fact that in 2006, then-Senator Barack Obama said that Khalid Shaikh Mohammed and other Guantanamo Bay detainees would receive a “full military trial.”

 

more about “Politics Over Country: Uncovered Obam…“, posted with vodpod

Update to this post – The trial of Khalid Shaikh Mohammed in NYC is NOT the story. This administration is uncanny at controlling the message. The trial is simply a slight of hand to take your focus off of the Health Care bill, Cap & Trade, and EFCA. So far, working perfectly as planned.  (h/t MKP)

Why Do Americans of African Descent Overwhelmingly Support Democrats?

This week guests will try to answer the question, “Why do Americans of African descent overwhelming tend to support Democratic candidates whose policies ultimately undermine their moral values and economic advancement?”.

This is one of the best articles I’ve come across on the issue: Why Is the Black Vote in the Democrats’ Pocket?

Our guests will include Nationally syndicated columnist and distinguished George Mason University Professor, Dr. Walter Williams.  We’ll also hear from Ms. Robin Martin, author of the Conservative Black Woman blog; (Mr. Coby Dillard from the African Americans for McDonnell coalition will not be able to join us.)  But we will hear from Ron Miller a MD Senate candidate.   We’ll also chat with Frances Rice, a retired Army Lieutenant Colonel, a lawyer and chairman of the National Black Republican Association. 

Former Governer George Allen will join us to discuss the ‘Cap and Tax’ proposal and how it could impact all of us when we pay our utility bills.

Mark McKinnon, will join us to discuss the possible changes to the Employee Free Choice Act.

We’ll talk further about improving the public education available to our children with Neal McCluskey from the Cato Center for Educational Freedom.

Jim Hoeft of Bearing Drift will give us an update on the Virginia political races.  And we’ll answer the question, “Who is running for Supervisor in districts 1, 2, and 3 in Northampton County?”.

That’s this Thursday starting at 6 p.m. and streaming live on the internet until 9 p.m. (Eastern) Don’t Miss a Minute!  Melody Scalley ~ On the Edge of the Shore.

Educated Voters an Endangered Species?

 

endagered voterWhile educated voters are an endangered species; conservative Republicans are probably extinct.

 

You might have been led to believe that the presence of man has decimated the animal kingdom; in fact, new species are constantly being discovered: 

  •  Three species that are new to science  discovered in forests of the Peruvian Andes.
  • New frogfish with psychedelic markings found.
  • Near the border with Panama, researchers found 60 types of amphibians, 20 reptiles and 120 bird species.
  • Genetic analysis has revealed three previously unknown species of lemurs.
  • Discovered; a rat that was believed to have become extinct 11 million years ago.
  • Huge Pacific Fish Identified  as a new fish species.
  • Rare Borneo leopard identified as new species.
  • As many as 10,000 new species of plants, animals and insects are discovered each year. 

     

     

Could this mean there is there hope for the discovery of a previously undiscovered educated electorate?

Can you imagine what would happen if  Congress appropriated funds to reverse the possible extinction of conservative voters?  What would happen if Congress required an electorate that was educated on the issues and understood the potential policies and positions of politicians BEFORE they cast their vote ?

At the next election, THEY WOULD ALL BE VOTED OUT!

 Educated Voters should be at the top of the endangered species list.

The Government’s impact on our lives.

If the government would just get out of the way and let the private sector do what the private sector does best ~ create jobs by investing in and creating business.

If the government would stop stifling opportunity through restrictive zoning, burdensome regulations and increased taxes ~ capital investors would be willing to establish new business and increase business.

Instead – what a capital investor sees when he looks out on the potential business landscape is plain and simply – quicksand.  No one with any common sense at all would even consider putting their money on the line.

Until we choose to realize and understand that you cannot attack the capital investors and at the same time expect them to create opportunities that will result in J-O-B-S; until then, this economy will not have a prayer for sustainable improvement.

What the Obama administration is creating right now is an unsustainable bubble in the market.  Because of the policies this administration wants to put in place, like Card Check, Cap & Trade, stopping any possibility of offshore drilling, mandatory health care . . . will all result in the capital investor taking their money to a country where they can be assured that the rules of engagement won’t change after they have put their money on the table.

If you want to fix the political system in this county, it is time for YOU to get involved.  Your grandchildren won’t have the same opportunities that you had if you don’t do something to ensure that what the founding fathers envisioned for this great Nation are still in place for the next generation.

How to Fix Our Political System

The ONLY way to fix our political system is to make sure you have an thinkelectorate that is EDUCATED ON THE ISSUES. Votes must be cast by individuals who UNDERSTAND the CONSEQUENCES of the policies their candidate will pass. Votes should not be cast based on emotion or an American Idol mentality or just because some government ‘fix’ sounds good.  

Instead of a Government ‘of the people, by the people and for the people’.  We have a government made up of lawyers and lobbyists.  Not until regular Jane Smith and John Smith run for office and change the system will the plethora of government regulations and government programs be simplified and eliminated. The electorate must be educated on the issues in order for us to discuss term limits; tort reform; the simple and effective way to correct the health care system; repealing the 16th Amendment and instituting the Fair Tax (just for starters). 

Learn why card check, cap and trade and mandatory health care will HURT and not help the economy.  Learn about the best way to have dynamic schools that excel at teaching our children instead of just teaching them to pass tests. 

It might only take 15 minutes a day to get educated on the issues.  You just have to want to understand how to make a difference.

Politicians should have a two term Limit.

“Just because you do not take an interest in politics doesn’t mean politics won’t take an interest in you.” — Pericles (430 B.C.)

Help bring prosperity back to the U.S.A.!

Folks there a few very basic ways we can save this great country and it won't take another failed bailout! Corporations that have taken jobs oversees will come back in droves; you will take home your entire paycheck without deductions and the GDP of this country not only recover but be better than it it ever was! How? Just let your representatives and delegates know that you want them to pass the FairTax see http://www.fairtax.org for more info. Second, we really need to pass Tort Reform. There is a growing movement and many reasons for this. I'll have to expand on that later. Last, for now anyway, we can correct the shortfall in Health insurance in this country easily without turning it over to the government ~ as we all know anything the government tries to do they DO WRONG! but alas, more on this later too ;)

What’s happening in your town or county?
