Obama set to cede U.S. constitution to climate government?

This video is chilling. And yet it seems to explain while the Daily Kooks and even the lil' libs are frothing at the mouth at ANY criticism of BHO. Spread the word. Rally the troops. Now is not the time for the summer soldier or sunshine patriot.

"As long as the gap is closed liberals would rather the poor be poorer."

Margaret Thatcher catches the socialists out on their hypocrisy. As long as everyone is poorer, then they have success. And why not? If everyone is poorer, than everyone will depend on the government to do more, hence putting more power in their hands. Oh well done Iron Britches!!!

Can you hear us now???

If you were in Washington for the 9/12 march, you were treated to a great view of democracy in action. Too bad the State Run Media made a conscious decision to censor our voices by choosing to ignore us.

Ah Glenn. Piss thy people off forsooth.

"The two people who inspire (oops, she said 'that I turn to most.' And yet ANOTHER Mao lover. Jeeez. I am wondering where the Thomas Paine comes in, other than in the violence. But I'm sure that my "LIBERAL" friends will school me on how T-Paine was a proto-marxist. Despite his suspicion and near hatred for G-O-V-E-R-N-M-E-N-T!!!!"

LOVE you crazy zombie spin docs. Do the VOODOO that you DOO-DOO.

After a long, drawn out argument that went no where....

Thomas Paine reminds us of the importance of Common Sense

What the hell are we thinking?

While we argue over the fine points of health care legislation, one question keeps coming to mind. What the hell are we thinking?

Quick. What comes to mind when someone says “well-run health care institution”? Medicaid? Medicare? Veterans Health Administration? Okay, maybe that’s too narrow. How about “well-run government institution” period." The U.S. Postal Service? Internal Revenue Service? U.S. department of…Health and Human Services, Labor, Agriculture, EDUCATION?!” How about the U.S. Department of ANYthing?

The truth is most of us loathe dealing with the government for any reason. Whether it’s renewing your license, paying your taxes, social security, you name it and it sucks. Long lines, snotty employees, an oh yeah, nothing ever gets done right the first time. Governments, whether Federal, State and for the most part, local, are really lousy at what they do. And why? No competition. What’s the point of doing something right if at the end of the day you still get paid the same and no one fires you?

Do you know ANYONE who likes dealing with the government in any capacity other than a vendor? And even most vendors hate working with the government. The only people who like the way government operates are the governORS. And Jesus who wouldn’t? (Aside from people who can’t live with themselves screwing things up on a daily basis?)

I’ll admit, some of these statements are exaggerated. But are they so over the top they make you uncomfortable? Is your reaction that these statements are vicious lies? Doubt it. Unless you work for or with the government, your reaction to what I’ve written is probably “yeah, that’s them. Assholes.” Even people in the welfare system hate dealing with the government. But the money and benefits are too good to walk away.

Ben Franklin once said “the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." Whenever we establish a new bureaucracy, agency, committee, service, you name it, we add to the burgeoning level and number of mediocre, crabby-ass, entitled a-holes who make a living interfering with our lives. In other words, we continue to support failure, mediocrity and inconvenience, even when we are confronted with the cost and the consequences on an almost daily basis.

So what in the HELL is anyone with any common sense thinking when they consider the government even playing a ROLE in health care reform, let alone establishing a new government bureaucracy to eventually control the second most important aspect of our existence, that being our bodies. (I’m assuming here that the soul outranks the flesh, but if you look at public education, yeah, they’re working on that too.)

Fact is, most of us do have common sense and most of us, about 54% right now, do not want the government screwing up yet one more aspect of our lives. So, what the hell are we thinking?

“When you think of well run heath care institutions what comes to mind?” Mayo. Cleveland Clinic. M.D. Anderson. Not government. Let’s quit arguing over the finer points of insanity and tell our legislators to stay out of the health care business and focus on things they do well. And if I happen to think of what those things are, I’ll put them in my next blog. Government participation in healthcare benefits no one but the people who work for and with the government. Forget the finer points of bad legislation. We don't need to read the bill. Dump the whole damn thing! It’s just common sense. And sanity.

Ta Dah! My blog goes formal.

If you’re reading this you’re either a friend or relative, or acquainted with one or some of those. And that’s great. I don’t have any dreams of blogging world domination. In fact, I mainly started this blog because I was doing most of the things that bloggers do, just in an unorganized, haphazard way. Why not organize it and share it? Even if most of the people who’ll read it already feel the same way I do.

But this isn’t a blog designed just to rant to the choir. After I joined Twitter, (go ahead, titter), I found a bunch of wonderful voices. Voices of just “average” people who feel passionate about their country and the direction it has taken in the past few months. These voices are not “astroturf”, or “mobsters”, they’re the voices of hard working people who really care. Enough to take time out of their busy, “little person” day to collect good information, sometimes comment on it, then pass it along to others in hopes that people will think, and more importantly, act.

And they’re making a difference. If you doubt that, you weren’t in Washington for the Tea Party. Or you didn’t make it to one of the local tea parties. Or you haven’t seen the expose on ACORN. Or you missed Dan Rather dropping his pants over a faked memo on W’s military service. These people are making a difference. Without them, and of course, Rush, Glenn Beck, Savage and others, I truly believe we would already be in full-on Eurosytle socialism mode.

In my own little way, I want to be a part of that. Maybe so I don’t feel hopeless. Or like throwing one of our cats through the television. (Cat’s are liberals you know.) Maybe so I won’t grind my teeth at night. Whatever. I’m taking the plunge. And I hope you visit often. I promise it will be worth the effort. Even if you’re a liberal. No. That’s a lie. You’ll hate this page if you’re a liberal. But it will make you feel miserable and since that’s part of what makes you happy, perhaps in a sick, twisted way, this page will become an important part of your daily routine.

Anyway, here’s what I promise if you do visit. You’ll have quick access to some great bloggers who regularly scoop the State Run Media on very important news. You’ll be entertained by some hilarious comments on those stories by real people, not smarmy, suck ass liberal wanks like Jon Stewart or Bill Maher. And you’ll have fodder. For arguments, discussions and just plain verbal bludgeonings that are so easy and fun to do when you have liberal friends and family. Mostly, what I’ll try to do with this page over time is promote common sense. Hence the reason for the picture of Thomas Paine. Common Sense was instrumental in giving birth to this country. And common sense will ultimately save it.

Thanks for visiting. Stop back again soon. And if you have a chance, tell a liberal a funny joke. It will wreck their day.

One more thing. I just found this video of "Thomas Paine" and it's really well done. Thanks to Full Metal Patriot for posting on his blog.
