Media: Speak Up or be Eliminated!

August 30, 2009

Freedom of the press

No one says it better than President Thomas Jefferson:

“No experiment can be more interesting than that we are now trying, and which we trust will end in establishing the fact, that man may be governed by reason and truth. Our first object should therefore be, to leave open to him all the avenues to truth. The most effectual hitherto found, is the freedom of the press. It is, therefore, the first shut up by those who fear the investigation of their actions.”

In one of my previous posts, I questioned whether the media did their job as a watchdog for the people, or had they become a lapdog for the current socialist administration.  Well it turns out that the media is also a target for Obama.  It would be easy for me to laugh at these brainless drones that control the media outlets and say I told you so, but the bigger picture is that we desperately need a free and unbiased media to help protect our freedoms.

Another Obama appointment threatens the core of our Country.  The new Chief Diversity Officer for the FCC, Mark Lloyd, is another radical that threatens our freedoms.  This guy is a real danger and is a truly scary radical.  Unfortunately, this socialist administration is littered with radicals.

The media loves Obama, and they refuse to report negative things about him or his administration.  I think now that their very existence is in jeopardy, they will actually take some sort of notice.  Here’s the story on Lloyd.  He has a title that will scare people into silence, after all, who can say anything bad about a guy who is a “Chief Diversity Officer”?  That is a classic tactic of a divisive administration.  Divide the people into small groups and get them to hate each other.  Then give the power to a radical that will quietly kill off dissent.

Mr. Lloyd loves what Chavez did in Venezuela!  Chavez led a socialist revolution and has taken over and closed privately held media outlets all over the Country.  I don’t think this is the type of government we should be aspiring to recreate here.  The media has remained silent so far, but they better start speaking up.  Why?  Because Mr. Lloyd believes there should be NO privately held media outlets.  He believes and espouses that every news organization be run by the government.  That may not go over too well in the corporate offices of these lemmings that call themselves news reporters.  They better start speaking up or we will only have NPR radio and TV, just like Cuba and Venezuela.

Here is a very informative 5 minute video about Lloyd by Glenn Beck.  Be afraid, be very afraid!

Never Give Up, Never Surrender!

August 19, 2009

Winston Churchill

One of my favorite people to quote is Sir Winston Churchill.  He said many wonderful things at a time when his Country needed assurance.  Unfortunately, we in this Country need assurance that our way of life can be maintained.  Assurance that our elected representatives will protect our rights of free speech, freedom of religion, and innumerable other rights that too many of us take for granted.  There are many special interest groups, Congressmen and women, Executive branch appointed extremists, and one socialist President that would love to stomp out peaceful dissent. 

Churchill could not be dissuaded from victory.  He gave inspiring speeches that contained quotes like: 

“Never, never, never give up” and

“One ought never to turn one’s back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half. Never run away from anything.  Never!” 

Unfortunately, the Santa Rosa School District in the Florida Panhandle didn’t listen to Churchill.  When faced with mounting legal bills several years ago concerning an ongoing suit from the ultra-liberal ACLU, the school system signed a letter saying that none of their employees would participate in any kind of prayer.

Now, because they tapped out and buckled under to extremists, several school staff members are facing a CRIMINAL complaint and possible incarceration for praying.  How could you enter this deal with the devil?  How do you let liberal extremists dictate to you how to exercise your constitutional rights?  The “heinous crime” occurred after school hours, at a luncheon not involving students and at an awards banquet where a prayer was spoken by a private citizen, not a school employee.

These criminal contempt charges should be a huge wake-up call to all of us.  Never sign away your rights.  Never give up the fight for what is right.  Never let the liberal extremists bully you into cowering away from a fight.  The ACLU does not represent what makes this Country great.  They are advocates for extremists, like most of the President’s administration.  If you prefer a movie quote, go with “Never Give Up, Never Surrender” from Galaxy Quest.  I offer that one if you don’t know who Winston Churchill is!

Report Conservatives Now!

August 8, 2009

Protest

This week our Socialist President and the Democrat Party really outdid themselves moving America to a Country oppressed into silence.  First the DNC put out an e-mail blasting American citizens voicing their concerns about socialized medicine.  Here is a portion of the message:

The right wing extremists’ use of things like devil horns on pictures of our elected officials, hanging members of Congress in effigy, breathlessly questioning the President’s citizenship and the use of Nazi SS symbols and the like just shows how outside of the mainstream the Republican Party and their allies are. This type of anger and discord did not serve Republicans well in 2008 – and it is bound to backfire again.

You can read the full message at: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2310766/posts

Unlike some of my liberal friends, I wanted to see what these angry mobs looked like.  So I found a video of an angry mob having the audacity to question the savior’s healthcare plan:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYl6KQpHCkc

They look terrifying, don’t they?  Roving bands of stark raving mad, mob rule right-wing extremists.  NOT! 

I seem to remember just a couple of years ago, it was the position of the Democrat party that the highest form of patriotism was the voicing of dissent.  Here is a quote from a great leader in the Democrat party, Senator John Kerry, from a speech in April, 2006:

“I have come here today to reaffirm that it was right to dissent in 1971 from a war that was wrong. And to affirm that it is both a right and an obligation for Americans today to disagree with a President who is wrong, a policy that is wrong, and a war in Iraq that weakens the nation.”

Now we have the Democrats in the White House.  I guess the highly touted patriotic duty of people to dissent has vanished.  It is no longer convenient for the Democrats because they happen to be the ones making the policies.  In communist countries, people are encouraged and even employed to inform on their neighbors to the government.  I know this because it happened to my wife as she was growing up in Cuba.  Our socialist president needs you to inform on fellow citizens if you believe they are spreading mis-information concerning the savior’s healthcare plan.  Send an e-mail to flag@whitehouse.gov to report on your neighborhood conservative.  To save all the people that watch me the trouble, I self reported my actions to the government by sending the following e-mail:

Greetings Mr. President,

I saw the report where you are seeking information on persons who are providing mis-information on your proposal for universal healthcare.  I have knowledge of many people undermining the people of this Country.  Unfortunately, most of the names I know are part of your administration. 

For the second time in just 200 days, your administration has labeled people that disagree with your socialist tendencies as right-wing extremists.  With my extensive math skills, that is one slur every 100 days.  Hopefully you will only be a one term president, so using those previously described math skills, I will only have to endure about 12 more of your insulting and condescending remarks.

As I believe I am already on your list as a right-wing God fearing conservative, I find your efforts to create another watch list of right-wing conservatives duplicative.  However, just in case one of your un-elected, non-accountable czars needs something to do, go ahead and add me to your new list of people who believe your socialist policy of universal healthcare is detrimental to this Country.

We are on the cusp of losing the Country we have come to recognize as the USA.  The last world power, the Country where freedom is cherished and the people are actually in control.  Join me in expressing your displeasure with this policy of creating hit lists of American citizens who are excercising their constitutional rights of free speech.

Capitalism Rocks!

August 5, 2009

Obama no hand

During lunch today, I was complaining that I wanted to write a blog, but I didn’t want to write on the inevitable socialized medicine debacle that our socialist President and liberal congress is going to force down our throats.  The 5-6 paragraphs here are incapable of dealing with such a complex issue. 

My good friend Glenn told us about his recent trip to Europe.  He talked about high taxes, high fuel and food costs, little cars, and bad medicine.  So I started ranting about why this Country is great.  There are reasons we have the best doctors, low prices for food and gas.  We drive big and distinctive cars.  We don’t believe the government can save us from all the bad things in the world, and we help everyone else.  We work hard!

Our capitalist system rewards hard work.  We don’t have 60%+ taxes, because people work to support themselves and at the heart of the Country, we know that hard work will eventually pay off.

Competition breeds low prices, availability of goods and services, and high quality.  If you have the best product at the best price, you will be successful.  Now we have the socialists pushing for universal healthcare.  A government that is on the way to bankrupting Social Security, made thousands of bad loans through Fannie May and Freddie Mac, watched the banking industry go bust, gave out $1 Billion of our tax money so government owned car companies could sell cars and bankrupted that program in a week, is incapable of running anything as complex as healthcare.  Leave business to the business owners.  Government bureaucrats have no idea how to run businesses.  Obama is leading us down a path to destruction.

We are supposed to be the beacon of light, a place where the saying “Live the American Dream” means working hard and having that hard work rewarded.  It doesn’t mean waiting around for the government to throw table scraps at us and simply survive while paying exorbitant taxes to a central government that will solve all our problems.  That model doesn’t work. 

You would think we would remember that we won the cold war and communism and socialism are bad things.  Unfortunately, most of the Obama supporters don’t remember the history of socialist regimes.  I’ll fill you in on the end-game of socialist and communist governments, they fail.
