Wealth and Wealth Redistribution

What is wealth? That's always a tough question, so let me begin by dividing it into two types, tangible and intangible. Tangible being such things as food, clothing and shelter and intangible being money. Government can control the production of the latter, but seldom the first, although at times they attempt to do so. Currently the Obama administration seems to be attempting some form of wealth redistribution, by placing additional tax burdens on the so-called wealthy. This simply moves intangible wealth from one group to another and does NOT increase the about of tangible wealth those things we need in our daily lives (food, clothing and shelter). Additionally the movement of that tangible wealth from one group to another will have the immediate effect of driving up prices on the basic goods we need for everyday life, while not producing an increase in the quantity of such goods. The true reality of this movement of wealth from the rich to the poor will result in less production of vital goods and higher prices.

Many people in our society think that millionaires have too much money and the government has a responsibility to take some and give it to those in the lower economic groups. This is the flawed belief of the socialist. They fail to realize that goods not money determines the wealth of a nation and wealth redistribution only moves money and not real wealth. The value of money is based only on what it can purchase. Just a few thoughts on economics 101 which many seen to have forgotten or never knew.

October Surprise

With Iran slowly inching toward membership in the Nuclear Club while Obama talks of weakened sanctions with the Chinese one must begin to wonder what the Jewish state will do and what the end game will be. The Iranians are already beginning to boast that no one will dare attack them in a few months, in effect indicating they will shortly have the bomb. Both Obama and the Israeli are keenly aware of this and I suspect each is wondering what the other may or may not do before Iran becomes a nuclear power.

One must keep in mind that Obama is a very astute Chicago politician and his primary concern is maintaining control in Washington. Control he will lose if even one house of Congress is lost in the November elections. Bearing this in mind one should not be surprised if there is an attack on Iran, an October surprise. There are many possibilities so one needs to carefully watch the unfolding events this October!!

Man Bites Dog!

Reposting from months ago! But still timely!

Everyone knows the old saying that, "dog biting man is no story but man biting dog" now that's news. We are now seeing this play out in spades in the MSM. We have all become accustomed to the violence on the left its almost a daily occurrence and is a part of life in this country. Campus radicals shouting down speakers, rock throwing mobs breaking store front windows, eco terrorist burning SUV's and running boats into whaling ships, union thugs beating up peaceful protesters in the streets and the list goes on and on. However, when the same things are perpetrated by some on the right suddenly its "man biting dog" and more. The MSM will use anything to marginalize those on the right especially an emerging power group such as the Tea Party. So they are now pointing the finger at those on the right for the recent acts of violence, not even knowing who the culprits are. But then it really doesn't matter to them, its not the acts of violence that's important but rather the discrediting of a movement, of a cause. This is their goal, their objective.

I recall the day JFK was shot. The MSM of that day quickly condemned the right and that continued for a day until it was found out Lee Oswald was a communist, a committed leftest then the condemnation stopped, but the fingers never, never pointed to the American left where the attack actually came from. We have the same thing here today with the MSM carrying the ball once more not for the public, but for the left and pointing their leftest fingers at the right before the facts are in while ignoring all the acts of violence committed by those on the left. In this country "left biting right" is not news, but "right biting left" well that's akin to "man biting dog"!

Demonizing the Opposition

AS USUAL WHEN EVERYTHING ELSE FAILS

THE ONLY THING LEFT IS TO

 "DEMONIZE YOUR OPPOSITION"!

Platform of My Candidate in 2012!

The candidate I support in 2012 must support the following:

(1) 'Press 1 for English' is immediately banned. English is the official language; speak it or wait at the border until you can.

(2) We will immediately go into a two year isolationist posture to straighten out the country's attitude. NO imports, no exports. We will use the 'Wal-Mart 's policy, 'If we ain't got it, you don't need it.'

(3) When imports are allowed, there will be a 100% import tax on it.

(4) All retired military personnel will be required to man one of our many observation towers on the southern border (six month tour). They will be under strict orders not to fire on SOUTHBOUND aliens.

(5) Social security will immediately return to its original state. If you didn't put nuttin in, you ain't getting nuttin out. The president nor any other politician will be able to touch it..

(6) Welfare - Checks will be handed out on Fridays at the end of the 40 hour school week and the successful completion of urinalysis and a passing grade.

(7) Professional Athletes--Steroids. The FIRST time you check positive you're banned for life.

(8) Crime - We will adopt the Turkish method, the first time you steal, you lose your right hand. There is no more life sentences. If convicted of murder, you will be put to death by the same method you chose for your victim; gun, knife, strangulation, etc.

(9) One export will be allowed, Wheat. The world needs to eat. A bushel of wheat will be the exact price of a barrel of oil.

(10) All foreign aid using American taxpayer money will immediately cease, and the saved money will pay off the national debt and ultimately lower taxes. When disasters occur around the world, we'll ask the American people if they want to donate to a disaster fund, and each citizen can make the decision whether it's a worthy cause.

(11) The Pledge of Allegiance will be said every day at school and every day in Congress.

(12) The National Anthem will be played at all appropriate ceremonies, sporting events, outings, etc.

"ALL RISE"

Remember the last time you were in a courtroom and heard those words "all rise" as the grand figure in the flowing black robe ascended the throne. Probably like most you stood, saying to yourself, its the court, its the law , its the office that I'm showing respect for. Your were wrong by standing you were showing your subservience to the government. By standing you were recognizing the governments seat and not the People's seat as Scott Brown would say.

Do you need to be reminded about this, you're damn right. Because  after Brown's shattering win in Massachusetts the President said this in an interview when asked about Brown's victory, I'm paraphrasing: "Brown's victory came because I didn't explain my positions clearly, I was unable to get my point across to the American people". Really mister President, we didn't understand, we were just to dumb to figure out what you were saying, we were just some dumb truck-driving rednecks who didn't comprehend you beautiful flowing words. Mister did it ever cross your mind that maybe, just maybe we weren't buying what you were selling. You arrogant pompous ass, don't act like the two bit car salesman who storms backs into his office after failing to move that rust-bucket off the lot, all the while blaming the stupid customer for not taking advantage of the super deal he was offered.

Mister President you are like that figure in the long flowing robe, who expects everyone to stand when he walks into the room. Well sir, this American will no longer bow at the altar of government. You sir, are the servant and we are the masters and should you ever forget that we can boot you out. For the seat you occupy is not yours, its only on loan for, it is the "people's seat". "All Rise",  my ass!

Will Obama Moderate?

Many are beginning to wonder if Obama will moderate should the Republicans take control of the House and perhaps the Senate following this falls elections. Will he move to the center of the political spectrum, much as Bill Clinton did after the disaster the democrats faced following the off year elections in 1994?  Clinton had to master the art of moderation as governor of Arkansas where the republicans often controlled the legislature while he was governor. The answer here is simple for most astute political observers---he will not. Bill Clinton was a member of the political left, but not an extreme radical like Obama. The closest Obama has ever come to moderation was voting "present" in the Illinois legislature!  He will go down with the ship before he abandons his deeply held political convictions. He is not a finger in the wind kind of guy like Slick Willy. Obama thinks he is right and the majority of the people in this country are wrong. He lied during his campaign, indicating he would govern from the center, but once in office he forgot his campaign promises, promises he never intended to keep, to the American people and pushed ahead with his radical agenda. The vote this fall may send a message to Washington, but a message that will fall on the deaf ears of the "Present-in-Chief".

TEXAS GIRLS AND ILLEGALS

DRINKING WITH A TEXAS GIRL.

A MEXICAN, AN IRAQI, AND A TEXAS GIRL ARE IN THE SAME BAR. WHEN THE MEXICAN FINISHES HIS BEER, HE THROWS HIS GLASS IN THE AIR, PULLS OUT HIS PISTOL, AND SHOOTS THE GLASS TO PIECES. HE SAYS, "IN MEXICO OUR GLASSES ARE SO CHEAP WE DON'T NEED TO DRINK WITH THE SAME ONE TWICE."

OMAR , THE IRAQI, OBVIOUSLY IMPRESSED BY THIS, DRINKS HIS BEER, THROWS THE GLASS INTO THE AIR, PULLS OUT HIS AK-47, AND SHOOTS THE GLASS TO PIECES. HE SAYS, " IN IRAQ, WE HAVE SO MUCH SAND TO MAKE GLASSES THAT WE DON'T NEED TO DRINK WITH THE SAME ONE TWICE EITHER."

THE GIRL FROM TEXAS, COOL AS A CUCUMBER, PICKS UP HER BEER, DOWNS IT IN ONE GULP, THROWS THE GLASS INTO THE AIR, WHIPS OUT HER .45 AND SHOOTS THE MEXICAN AND THE IRAQI. WHILE CATCHING HER GLASS, SETTING IT ON THE BAR, AND CALLING FOR A REFILL, SHE SAYS, "IN TEXAS, WE HAVE SO MANY ILLEGAL ALIENS THAT WE DON'T HAVE TO DRINK WITH THE SAME ONES TWICE."

GOD BLESS TEXAS

WHITE FLIGHT

America's first post-racial president, the great uniter, the hope and change man of the century is losing his mojo and quickly becoming America's greatest racist president. Yes, a well kept liberal secret is out, a black man can be a racist. And those who foolishly took the appealing bait of "hope and change" are now tasting the bitter pill of "bait and switch". Whites who supported this great black hope are now deserting in great numbers as the truth about this so-called post-racial president is seen by more and more who are willing to accept the realities presented to them each day. Many however, retain their faith in this great one and will continue to follow blindly as he leads them over the cliff. It seems that some 90% of blacks retain their loyalty toward the president, and this support can best be summed up by the "Obama Money" they are hoping to get! White support among Democrats remains at 80% indicating that they are as stupid as ever---nothing new here. Yes, Mr. Obama "Hope and Change has now turned to "Hope for Change". Whitey has finally seen the truth and truly heard the words of Rev. Wright and his prize protege pupil, the president, and now see that they both hate America.

Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy

Here we go again that "vast right-wing conspiracy" is back and this time its Bill not Hillary who is sounding the alarm. To a certain extent Bill has it right, but I would contend it is a "Vast Grass-Roots Conspiracy" that's directed at Barack (the usurper) and I'm proud to be a member of that conspiracy or maybe conspiracy isn't the correct word as that's something usually done in secret and here well everything is above board unlike the under-the-table quickies (I mean quick deals) of the Clinton Oval Office or the secrecy that surrounds the Obama White House. Clinton says in the below article that those in this grand conspiracy want Obama to fail---that we do. For the success of the Obama agenda would mean the destruction of a system that has served us well for over 200 years, a system that has given us the highest standard of living in the world, a system that tens of thousands have fought and died for. Yes, if Obama has his way the torch of Lady Liberty will dim and that beacon of hope will fade and the millions who seek a safe harbor will turn away. So finally Slick Willy, I can agree with you on something---yes we the members of that VRWC want Obama to fail "Yes We Do!"

WASHINGTON -- Bill Clinton said a vast, right-wing conspiracy that once targeted him is now focusing on President Obama.

The ex-president made the comment in a television interview when he was asked about one of the signature moments of the Monica Lewinsky affair over a decade ago. Back then, first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton used the term "vast, right-wing conspiracy" to describe how her husband's political enemies were out to destroy his presidency.

Bill Clinton was asked on NBC's "Meet the Press" whether the conspiracy is still there. He replied: "You bet. Sure it is. It's not as strong as it was because America has changed demographically. But it's as virulent as it was."

Clinton said that this time around, the focus is on Obama and "their agenda seems to be wanting him to fail."

OLD, OLD STORIES

My early years on the farm

While trying to sleep last night I began to recall memories from my early teen years at my grandfather and grandmother's farm where I spent many a happy day in my youth. Of course I heard them tell numerous stories, but only a few have stayed with me over the years. I have often heard that so long as a person is remembered they are not truly dead. I know when I pass on these old stories will pass with me so thought I would share a few. I've condensed them so they are very short:

The Ball of Fire
In the early 1950's when there began to be a lot of talk about UFO's I remember asking my grandmother had she ever seen one and to my surprise, she stated she had and went on to explain that as a young girl she and some friends saw something on night while returning from a dance. You must keep in mind this would have had to been around 1915. Anyway on the return home a distance of about 5 miles (nothing by today's standards), but a trip of several hours by horse and buggy then, the young couples were followed by what she described as a ball of fire. She said every time they stopped to look at the low hanging flaming object in the sky it would stop and when they continued it would move after them. This lasted until they reached home and then the object vanished. I would add, that I never, never knew my grandparents to lie. Seems like old folks just didn't lie like people these day do.
The Old Faithful Dog
While sitting on the front porch late one afternoon, I know it was late because that's the only time we set on the porch, my grandmother told be a very sad tale about a family she knew in her youth. Seems all the family would go to the fields to work from the early spring until the fall of the year. On this particular day they left the small baby on the back porch with the old faithful and trusted family dog(some type of bulldog) while they all went to the fields to work. After several hours the dog unexpectedly came running to the field with blood all over his mouth and other parts of this body. The family immediately thinking the dog had killed the baby---shot the poor animal and ran back to the house finding the small child safe in its crib and lying along side the crib a large dead and badly mangled rattlesnake. I think I saw a tear in the old lady's eye as she finished the story.
The Sea Monster
I don't remember how the subject of sea monsters came up, but grandfather related the story of the sea monster he once saw. As a young adult he lived near the town of McComb, MS. McComb was a small town located on the route of the Illinois Central Railroad that ran from Chicago in the north to New Orleans in the south. He said one day while in town he noticed a large crowd gathered at the train station and went over to see what all the fuss was about. And there he saw it, a great sea monster. The creature was so large that it took two flat cars to hold it. Well he said, the flat cars contained only a part of the great creature, he never knew where the rest was. I said, granddaddy, what part of the monster was on the flat cars--it's head, the old man smiled as he puffed his pipe and said, it's dick. He always referred to that part of a males anatomy as "Dick".
The Skinning
Another afternoon while grandfather and I sat alone on the old front porch he related a story which was unexpected and out of character. I don't recall how the subject came up, I must have been about 14 or so at the time. Anyway, he said as a young teenager his father rode up to the house one night and told him to get on the horse behind him (keep in mind this would have been around 1910-1915. They then rode to a secluded wooded area where a crowd of men had gathered with their torches to light the night. And there in the dim light he could see a black man tied to a tree. What he said next shocked me. He said, the men began to skin the black man alive. I recall asking, grandfather what did that man do? He reply was short and to the point, "he raped and killed a white woman and her child". Nothing else was said and I knew not to ask any more questions. I never knew if great grandfather was a part of that mob, or just a spectator, but I have learned over the years not to judge past events using today's standards---only fools do that. Grandfather was a good and honest man, but in many ways a very practical man. I'll always cherish the memories of him with that old pipe and sitting in his lap as a very young boy on Saturday night listening to the Grand Ole Opry on that big old battery powered radio, before we had electricity at the old farm.

UNCLE SAM WANTS YOU!!

"Uncle Sam Wants You". Uncle Sam needs you! Have you gotten the message! Are you ready to serve the new order! Are you ready to crush those forces that have corrupted our nation for hundreds of years! Are you ready to crush racism! Are you ready for real change! Are you ready to stop greed and corruption! Are you ready to stand up for your community! Are you ready to stifle unbridled individualism! Are you ready for a better life! Are you ready for free medical care!  Are you ready to kick religion from the public square! Are you ready to stop parents from indoctrinating their children with unregulated home schooling! Are you ready for America to be put on the right path! Are you ready to reign-in the a military that threatens world peace! Are you ready to stand up to Israel and give the Arabs a fair shake! Are you ready to silence reactionary voices that stand in the way of better life for all! Are you ready to take the fight to the enemies of change! Now is the time, this is the moment for change. Change that will free us from the repressive chains of racism and capitalistic greed.

These are the chants of the new Progressive left in this county. The battle cry of the new administration. A call to arms. A call for change, radical change. These are demanding voices, voices that won't be easily silenced. Voices that are loud and threatening. These are the voices of "Change you can Count On". The new Uncle Sam does want you, but this time not to stand shoulder to shoulder with him against some forign enemy. This time Uncle Sam wants you, Under His Thumb!

The Tipping Point

The tipping point is that invisible mark that each must find. And in the end some will sit on the side lines while others join the fight. But once the fight is joined the onrushing events will gather momentum and all will be effected by the great struggle and even the "sunshine patriot" will find no refuge from the storm. We are now approaching that point, that place from which there is no turning back, some will say yes, while others hold back and cringe before the foreboding warnings.
Great changes are in the wind and the forces of change are gathering as the approaching storm looms large on the horizon. Many are seeking the shelter of family and friends with the hope that these changes will pass them by and they can again feel the warmth of yesterdays. While others are rushing to fill the breach torn in the fabric of the nation by those forces who would not only destroy the tomorrow's but the yesterday's. For the fair weather soldier the tipping point will never come, for they will continue to push that point farther and farther down the road. They will stand under that sheltered tree as the battle swirls round them and their muskets will never know the taste of fire and smoke. But wiser men will stand and say, "no more", for they have reached that place from which there is no retreat---The Tipping Point!

Holiday Inn del Norte

As a result of the recent decision by the Department of Homeland Security to house illegal immigrants in hotels in this country signs are already popping up in many Mexican cities just south of the border announcing the great new Gringo Hotel, "Holiday Inn del Norte". The rates are unbelievable low (hell, its free) to all with one exception no American citizens are allowed. To qualify for this great deal you must be an illegal alien and present NO papers when checking in. Your stay at this great vacation spot is unlimited and includes free food (including refried beans, tacos, and tortillas daily), free drinks, free clothing, free bedding, free towels, free phone calls, free cable T.V.and some free Internet. The luxury pool is open to all guest, and management will only ask that any river mud be washed off before entering. No need to phone ahead for reservations, just show up in America without papers and you will be provided immediate transportation to the nearest Holiday Inn del Norte, but keep in mind no American citizens will be allowed, so if you have one leave them at home. The welcome mat is out for our friends south of the border. All this is available to our comrades in the south courtesy of Janet Napoltino, Barack Obama and the generous American taxpayers. So gather up your drug addicts, your criminals and other misfits and come to "Holiday Inn del Notre"!






The Department of Homeland Security announced last week that it plans to convert hotels, nursing homes, and other residential facilities into detention buildings to house "non-criminal, non-violent" illegal immigrants as they await court hearings and deportation to their native countries.

Thanks to the Department of Homeland Security, advocates on both sides of the illegal immigration debate have finally found common ground. They both agree that housing illegal immigrants in hotels while they await hearings and deportation is the wrong way to solve a national problem.

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Assistant Secretary John Morton announced last week that the DHS plans to convert hotels, nursing homes, and other residential facilities into detention buildings to house "non-criminal, non-violent" illegal immigrants while their cases are considered.

While there won't be room service or a mini-bar, officials and immigration reform advocates say converted hotels will be far better housing than the overcrowded, prison-like detention facilities illegals are currently placed in.

"There have been scores of deaths in detention centers and a lot of these people are nonviolent and awaiting civil deportation," said Marshall Fritz, director of immigration policy for the Center for American Progress. "The idea of a less punitive setting is a welcome one."

But the initiative is being roundly criticized by immigration reform advocates, who say it does little to change an underlying, flawed immigration system, and by deportation advocates, who say it is a drain of public funds.

Fritz and others say the very idea of using converted hotels to detain illegal immigrants underscores some of the "absurdities" of current immigration policy.

"They're converting the longstanding detention model into a hospitality model," said Bob Dane, a spokesman for the Federation for American Immigration Reform. "Instead of focusing resources where it would do the best -- enforcement -- they're retrofitting Ramada Inns with no specifics as to the security aspects."

"It doesn't change what we have -- and that's a dysfunctional, Draconian system based on a law that is unworkable," added David Leopold, president of the American Immigrations Law Association. "We detain far too many people at high costs to the American taxpayer, with no real benefit."

The Department of Homeland Security did not respond to repeated requests for comment.

While Leopold said he applauds the administration's efforts to make detention centers more "civil," he said he advocates less expensive, less restrictive measures like ankle bracelets to ensure illegal immigrants' presence at court hearings.

"People accused of vary serious drug crimes walk out of court all the time with ankle bracelets, while illegal immigrants who have never even been suspected of a crime get locked up all the time," he said.

But critics say that illegal immigrants have committed a crime -- entering the United States illegally -- and that they should be punished through speedy detention and deportation. read more from FOX News
