Video: Robert Welch 'Solutions to problems in the Government'

The last time I posted anything related to the John Birch Society on this Blog; my hits just about went off the charts. My servers had smoke rolling out of them and I could have sworn that I heard that said server yelping a bit in agony. Okay, the second part was not true. Nevertheless, there were a good deal of people, that were very highly interested in that video; and this was before this blog really even took off.

This is Robert Welch, he was the founder of the John Birch Society. Contrary to what people like, Rachel Maddow might think; the JBS is not what the liberals and some Conservatives like to think that it is. Here is Mr. Welch giving a speech in 1974 telling of the goals of the Society. Now, honestly, where have you heard this stuff before? If you said Ron Paul in 2008, you get a gold star, if you say the majority of Conservatives TODAY; you get another big gold star. As old as this video is; its contents are timely, considering the mess that we are in today.

The second group of videos are a reposting of some videos that I have posted here before and a few new ones. The first is the actual story John Birch, the second is the founder of the JBS giving a outline of what the JBS is truly all about. The rest are various related to the subject at hand. Some are dated, some, are quite timely.

Democrats pass another hurdle towards nationalized healthcare

I really do not have much to add to this story, as I have written on it before and my personal feelings are well known. I will say this; the Democrats own this Healthcare debate now. The democrats have successfully rammed this bill down the throat of the American people —- and now they own it. I mean, voting at 1:00a.m., to insure its passage. It is a disgrace and the Democrats now own it. That means, no more blaming Bush, no more blaming Republicans, No more calling us who opposed this idiotic idea Racists, Tea Baggers, and whatever else the socialists call us. This is their baby now; we made our voices heard and they ignored us, and now, they own it.

They own it and they will own it come 2010 and 2012, they also will own it, when the bill goes into effect in 2014 and Medicare cuts begin and the folks begin to complain. When the folks begin to complain, we that opposed it will have one thing to say. You voted for that socialist President and Congress; now deal with the consequences!

Now, do I believe it will actually make it to the President’s desk? I have no idea, at this point. Nevertheless, it looks like it might. If it does, we, (meaning us bloggers) will continue to Blog against the socialist agenda of the President and this Congress. One can always hope that it will not or even Pray, if that is what you believe in. But at this point, I think what we as Conservatives and “Right of center” types, can do at this point is get our houses in order and stand behind those who are running on the Republican ticket and come 2010 do that which will stop the socialist nonsense; and that is vote.

Auschwitz, Jews, Conservatives, Twitter and Me

Some good news for a change this late weekend evening:

The “Arbeit macht frei” sign stolen from Auschwitz in southern Poland has been found in the north and five men have been arrested, police say.
They said the metal sign from the main gate, which symbolises for many the atrocities of Nazi Germany, had been cut into three pieces.
A major search was launched after the sign was stolen before dawn on Friday.
Its theft, the motive for which was not being reported, caused outrage in Israel and among Polish politicians.
Five men in their 20s or 30s were detained and were being taken to Krakow for questioning, a police spokeswoman said.
More than a million people – 90% of them Jews – were murdered by the Nazis at Auschwitz during World War II.
Pawel Sawicki, a spokesman for Auschwitz museum, said the recovery of the sign was an “enormous relief”.
“We are extremely grateful to the police who have done fantastic work,” he told AFP news agency.
“This symbol, probably one of the most important of the past century, can be put back in its place.”
The museum is preparing to celebrate the 65th anniversary of Auschwitz-Birkenau's liberation by Soviet troops on 27 January.
via BBC News – Police in Poland find sign stolen from Auschwitz gate.

I feel the need to fire up the handy word processer and really let my writing juices flow on this one. First, I am quite glad the sign was found — although, I am saddened that this sign was found cut up. I believe that the criminal thugs that did this ought to face the firing squad for their actions.

The reason why this story rather hit me in an odd way is for two reasons. One, my grandfather’s two brothers, Frank and Harlan, both fought in Germany. Frank got his index finger blown off, by a grenade that exploded too early. He never was able to use that finger again, of any great use anyhow. Another reason is this, while I have never been a rabid Zionist, because quite frankly, some of the more radical elements of Zionism I find to be rather annoying and because, quite frankly, Zionism has been turned into a well lucrative racket for some of the parties involved. Not only this, but there is a great deal of race baiting that goes on in those circles, towards to the Arab race – more so after 9/11, so I have noticed. Having said that; I cannot sit and act as of what Hitler did was no big deal — It was a big deal, for many Jews and Americans as well, and to joke about that horrific event; that is just inexcusable.

The other reason is, my keen awareness and interest in the subject of history, notably the era of the 1940’s; I am well aware of the unspeakable horrors that took place to the Jews, during the reign of Hitler. I personally recommend, that you please, and I do mean, please read this blog posting by Rachel Lucas, she is in England, and she traveled with her husband to Poland to the death camps. Please, have your tissues handy, because if you do not cry, I will wonder about you.

There is another issue as well. I was not going to blog about all. However, see this story did come out. I will inform you of something that happened to me earlier today on twitter. Some person on twitter thought that mentioning the Nazi death camp and President Barack Obama would be cute. She went on to say that, she was joking and that she was half-Jewish. I personally do not give a damn what she is, what she said was highly offensive. Now, why would I get all bend out of shape over something like that? I highly suggest that you go read this blog posting by Rachel Lucas, and then you might have an understanding as to why I was so highly bothered by that idiotic remark.

As for as this writer is concerned, anyone who makes crass comments, invoking the President of the United States of America with images of Hitler or Nazi death camps is no better than the Big Government socialists that are trying to destroy our economy, free market system, and our freedoms. Let this be a warning to anyone on twitter, you make a stupid comment as the one made in this writing, and I happen to see it. I will block you and advise all those who follow me to do so as well. There is no excuse whatsoever for that sort of nonsense, at all.

Our President may be a member of the Democratic Party; he may be, in fact, a big Government socialist. However, he is not, nor has he ever, nor will he ever be responsible for the death of anyone of the Jewish race. Further, I feel that it is a disgrace to the memory of those, who lost their lives, during the reign of terror of Hitler and the third Reich. Making illusions to that image is not only was it not funny, but it is an asinine thing to do.

I thought that those, who share my beliefs in fiscal Conservatism, were wiser than this; I hope that I am not mistaken.

Obama Police State? -Black D.C. Cop pulls a Gun, at people who pelted his hummer with Snowballs

I am a simple school bus driver. Here is a conversation I heard. Last year we had an Iranian girl who loudly proclaimed, when the school was in its Patriotic Songs Celebration (“This Land Is Your Land,” etc.): “I am not an American, I am a Muslim.”
This was done on the bus so all could hear.
This is what they feel, deep down. They don’t think like us, they lie without compunction, they want us dead or out of the way, because they are not fools like the Propositional Nationalists.
They know what a country really is; it is its land and resources. As long as we are here, we’re in their way.
I am stunned at the stupidity of our leaders. Either they go to war in a place like Kosovo and learn nothing about it and why it became the way it did, or they are biding their time until full scale civil war breaks out in the USA, so martial law can be enforced and their power grows exponentially.
Personally, I think the latter will be the case.

When will Americans rise up?

Update: Oops! My bad, it was a D.C. cop, not Chicago Cop. My Apologies to the Chicago Police Dept.

Update #2: Admittedly, these people were wrong for tossing snowballs at a car, but pulling a gun? That’s a bit extreme. Also, calling a Police Officer a “Pig” is very disrespectful. But, again, pulling a gun like this was wrong.

Quote of the Day

The real entitlements are never mentioned. The “defense” budget is an entitlement for the military-security complex about which President Eisenhower warned us 50 years ago. A person has to be crazy to believe that the United States, “the world’s only superpower,” protected by oceans on its East and West and by puppet states on its North and South, needs a “defense” budget larger than the military spending of the rest of the world combined.
The military budget is nothing but an entitlement for the military-security complex. To hide this fact, the entitlement is disguised as protection against “enemies” and passed through the Pentagon.
I say cut out the middleman and simply allocate a percentage of the federal budget to the military-security complex. This way we won’t have to concoct reasons for invading other countries and go to war in order for the military-security complex to get its entitlement. It would be a lot cheaper just to give them the money outright, and it would save a lot of lives and grief at home and abroad.
The U.S. invasion of Iraq had nothing whatsoever to do with American national interests. It had to do with armaments profits and with eliminating an obstacle to Israeli territorial expansion. The cost of the war, aside from the $3 trillion, was over 4,000 dead Americans, over 30,000 wounded and maimed Americans, tens of thousands of broken American marriages and lost careers, 1 million dead Iraqis, 4 million displaced Iraqis and a destroyed country.
All of this was done for the profits of the military-security complex and to make paranoid Israel, armed with 200 nuclear weapons, feel “secure.”
My proposal would make the military-security complex even more wealthym as the companies would get the money without having to produce the weapons. Instead, all the money could go for multimillion dollar bonuses and dividend payouts to shareholders. No one, at home or abroad, would have to be killed, and the taxpayer would be better off.

Obama says, ‘Less Talk, More Action!’

I really hate to be the one to mock the President, but when Mr.’ Magic One’, does stuff like this; it is quite hard not to.

This story from the politico is quite amusing:

COPENHAGEN — A visibly angry Barack Obama threw down the gauntlet at China and other developing nations Friday, declaring that the time has come “not to talk but to act” on climate change.
Emerging from a multinational meeting boycotted by Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao, Obama warned delegates that U.S. offers of funding for poor nations would remain on the table “if and only if” developing nations, including China, agreed to international monitoring of their greenhouse gas emissions.
“I have to be honest, as the world watches us … I think our ability to take collective action is in doubt and it hangs in the balance,” Obama told the COP-15 plenary session as hope faded for anything more than a vague political agreement.
“The time for talk is over, this is the bottom line: We can embrace this accord, take a substantial step forward. We can do that, and everyone who is in this room will be part of an historic endeavor, or we can choose delay,” he said.

Here is the video:

The problem here is that the President looks and sounds more like a spoiled rotten brat, who is obviously not getting his way with the World Community on Global Warming. Since the outing of the e-mails by the global warming fanatics, which show an obvious attempt to cover up data, it appears that the rest of the world is just not signing on to this idiotic nonsense. The only thing that the President of the United States is accomplishing is making the United States of America look like egotistical idiots. Before anyone brings it up in the comments section; Yes, I know, Bush did much of the same thing, during the Iraq War, I criticized him for it as well.

I will be honest with you; I am all for caring for the planet and keep the environment clean. The problem I have with it is that the science data is incomplete; further, the entire environment issue and the global warming issue became politicized; which essentially caused the issue to become the liberal environment groups against the rich business owners. In essence, the entire issue became a class warfare battle and I believe that it never should have become that at all and this sort of elitist foot stomping by the President is living proof of that assertion.

In short, the President is wasting the American people’s time and tax money, by going to this idiotic summit and trying to exert his will upon these other Country. Because it has become is obvious to me, that these other Countries are just not on board with this far-left zealotry to supposedly save the planet. This browbeating of the other nations, in all honesty is not actually going to save our planet, but rather line the pockets of the investors, like Al Gore, who are invested heavily in this global warming issue. The President simply needs to cut his losses, chalk his global warming front as a loss, much like his other fronts; and move on.

Video: Bill O'Reilly and Laura Ingraham yell at each other about Michelle Obama

File this one under the “What could go wrong?” file section.

It was quite obvious to me that in this video that Laura was trying to be funny and Bill was having none of it. He even said the word ‘bullshit’ and they edited it out. I sat and watched this one unfold and I though, “uh-oh, Laura has ventured into the area where not many dare to go…”

I guess you could say the Laura was teasing him, but I don’t think Bill liked it one bit.

Points to Bill for calling Ingraham for what she is, a blind ideologue.

Enjoy!

Video: Bernie Sanders takes his marbles and goes home

Wow. I guess Sanders is not happy at all. Not only did he pull his amendment, he is not voting for the bill.

Video:

Partial transcript:

I’m struggling with this. As of this point, I’m not voting for the bill. … I’m going to do my best to make this bill a better bill, a bill that I can vote for, but I’ve indicated both to the White House and the Democratic leadership that my vote is not secure at this point. And here is the reason. When the public option was withdrawn, because of Lieberman’s action, what I worry about is how do you control escalating health care costs?

Popcorn anyone? 😉

Obama and the Democrats play politics with the Nation’s Defense

My, what the Democrats will not to pass their idiotic socialistic healthcare bill! Captain Ed over at HotAir.com alerts to the fact that Michael Goldfarb has a source up on the hill; what he is telling Michael is unbelievable:

While the Democrats appease Senator Lieberman, they still have to worry about other recalcitrant Democrats including Nebraska Senator Ben Nelson. Though Lieberman has been out front in the fight against the public option and the Medicare buy-in, Nelson was critical of both. Now that those provisions appear to have been stripped from the bill, Lieberman may get on board, but Nelson’s demand that taxpayer money not be used to fund abortion has still not been met. According to a Senate aide, the White House is now threatening to put Nebraska’s Offutt Air Force Base on the BRAC list if Nelson doesn’t fall into line.
Offutt Air Force Base employs some 10,000 military and federal employees in Southeastern Nebraska. As our source put it, this is a “naked effort by Rahm Emanuel and the White House to extort Nelson’s vote.” They are “threatening to close a base vital to national security for what?” asked the Senate staffer.
Indeed, Offutt is the headquarters for US Strategic Command, the successor to Strategic Air Command, and not by accident. STRATCOM was located in the middle of the country for strategic reasons. Its closure would be a massive blow to the economy of the state of Nebraska, but it would also be another example of this administration playing politics with our national security.

I will be straight and honest with you. During the 2008 election, I thought Michael Goldfarb’s outlandish behavior was asinine; I still do. However, this was one hell of a good catch. Goodness, what a better way to fuel the conspiracy theory idiots like Orly Taitz, who still believe that President Obama is some sort of a covert Muslim or whatever the hell it is that they think about him now.

I will say this, this story, if true, reeks of desperation. The Democrats are obviously desperate to pass this healthcare bill. Why is this? Because they know that if this bill goes down in flames, the Democrats are sunk. They already know that the 2010 elections are not going to be kind to them; the deep sixing of this bill will only make that worse. The problem is, seeing that the public option was stripped out; you have people like Markos Moulitsas saying that the bill should be killed. Either way, this is going to be a huge disaster for the Democrats. They promised change, they promised healthcare for everyone, they overreached like nothing I have ever seen before and now, they are going to pay for it dearly. Frankly, I could not be happier; you oversell yourself and promise the moon, the stars, unicorns and rainbows, and then do not deliver — then you suffer the wrath of the voters come election time.

The point to this blog entry is this; do not make promises that you cannot keep. If you do, you will pay and it is obvious to me and every other blogger out there that the Democrats made all sorts of promises to the American people, during the election of 2008 and now they cannot deliver. Because of this, they are stooping to desperate measures. Measures which will hurt our National Security, for this the Democrats will pay come 2010 and 2012.
