Compared to Ron Paul, the answer would be resounding yes.
Government Records $229 billion deficit for a month
Elections matter folks, this is why. Greece, here we come!
The U.S. government just notched its highest ever monthly deficit, with the red rink running to an estimated $229 billion in February.
The Congressional Budget Office, in a preliminary analysis, reported that the February 2012 deficit broke last year’s monthly record of $223 billion.
The office attributed the shortfall in part to a decline in revenue — mainly because of a $25 billion increase in income tax refunds thanks to disbursement timing issues.
According to the CBO, processing delays pushed refund payments that would have been distributed in January off into February. And the additional day in February this year allowed for extra refunds to be distributed during the month that otherwise would have been paid out in March.
The CBO projected that for the first five months of the fiscal year, the federal government is running a $578 billion deficit.
The projected deficit this year is once again projected to top $1 trillion

The only thing I can truly say about this one is this; elections matter. This is what happens when you put progressives and moderate Republicans in Government, they spend on your dime and you get stuck with the tab and most usually, you do not get a thing for it in return. This is why we have to get people elected to political office, in City, State and Federal levels; who at the very least, have the American people’s interests in mind and not their own political fortunes in mind. Because when the political veterans are running the show; both Republican and Democratic Parties; this is what you get —- Debt.
China cannot buy our debt forever, or eventually they will own this Country. Not to mention, China is not exactly a free Country. All China would have to do, is tell the United States that they will not be buy anymore of our debt and we, as a Nation, would be history. We, as Conservatives have no one to blame, but ourselves for this fine mess. The Republican Party elected a moderate Republican by the name of Richard Nixon, who wanted so badly to make a name for himself and that idiot liberal Republican just had to go to China and normalize relations with those Communist bastards. Which is pretty darned ironic, considering what the Communists in China did to John Birch. This is one Conservative who felt Watergate was nothing more than sweet justice. (…and No, I am NOT being snarky!)
This why we the American people, the silent majority; need to vote differently this coming November. Our Nation’s future might just depend on it.
Venezuela Government outlaws gun sales
I guess it is supposed to be a shock or surprise. But it is not really; I just wonder, and of course, it is obligatory —- is this coming to America?
Anyhow, Simon Black at businessinsider.com has the low-down and the analysis: (H/T InstaWeirdo)
In recent remarks to the Latin American Herald Tribune, Venezuelan Interior and Justice Minister Tareck El Aissami announced that the government will begin suspending firearm importation, effective this month. Furthermore, local gunsmiths will no longer be able to market or sell firearms and ammunition.
According to El Aissami, “As of March, every last gun shop remaining in Venezuela – and there are less than 80 – should be closed. That is to say, in Venezuela, the perverse chapter of the commercialization of firearms and munitions is over.”
That ought to fix the problem. Murderous criminals obviously have no means of acquiring firearms illegally. And hapless victims clearly prefer to defend themselves with soup spoons and Tae Bo lessons.
Also, The truth about Guns Blog adds the following and boy is he ever right:
Pretty much. But as bad as the murders are – and as predictable as gun confiscation is for any self-respecting paragon of the international left – using the murder rate as the cause for the gun grab is really just a fig leaf. Chavez isn’t long for this world. His apparatchiks know it and they appear to be clearing the decks to make it easier to handle any general unrest that could develop when the news finally comes that Pugsley’s assumed room temperature. It’s a lot easier mowing down a crowd of protestors when they’re not shooting back at you.
You see this stuff right here is causes me to drone on like an old man about the left. This here is what the far socialist left in this Country wants for the United States of America; and that is to revoke the second amendment in this Country. Because the far socialist left in this Country knows that as long as there is a second amendment of the United States constitution and the citizens of the United States are armed, a true socialist revolution cannot occur. This is why some Democrats have been working for many years to put more and stricter gun laws on the books.
Thankfully, because of some missteps in the past, most mainstream Democrats are not interested in fighting the battle of guns. Most notably was the outlawing of “assault rifles” in the 1990’s, a law that was about broad based as it can get. Thankfully, the Democrats learned their lesson on that little mistake, as they lost seats in both houses of Congress. However, I just do not trust this President at all and that is because his ear is tuned to the far left. Who is to say that some well-funded far left group would not start pressuring the White House to push for an outlawing of all guns in America? Thankfully, it has not happened yet, but who is to say that it would not happen?
To be fair to the Democrats, there is some establishment Republicans who would most likely support a banning of all firearms as well. Mainly it would be the moderate Republicans, who would argue that outlawing firearms would be for the so-called “greater good,” that the socialist left likes to tout as some sort of pseudo gospel of the socialist movement. Admittedly, I am not as far to the right as some of my friends are in the blogging world. However, when it comes to the second amendment and firearms, I am as far to the right as one can get. You see, I happen to believe that big Government Statism is an evil thing, no matter who is in charge of it. I like many of you; simply do not trust the Government at all. I know what they did to Randy Weaver; I know what they did to the Branch Davidians and I know just how the federal Government can screw up. This is why I advocate for an armed society.
My friends, being a gun advocate and supporting the second amendment is not Ron Paul craziness; that is simply Americanism at its finest.
I must take a stand for Israel
There is a time when one must be silent and there are times when one must speak out against what he knows is morally wrong; this is one of those times.
Those of you who are daily readers of this blog know that I voted for Ron Paul in the Michigan primary. I did this mainly because of my personal Christian (as lousy as I am at that practice) convictions and my anti-statist convictions; believe me when I tell you, I know full well about Ron Paul’s position of Israel, I know full well about his idiotic position of terrorism and foreign policy. I do not support that aspect of Ron Paul at all. However, I was just not willing to throw out the baby with the bathwater, so to speak.
I am a very open-minded person, anyone who has followed my political blogging career, knows that. However, I just will not tolerate blind hatred of Jews, Israel and its right to exist as its own state. I am a born-again Christian of 29 years. I happen to accept, believe, and will defend to my dying day; that land of Israel is for God’s chosen people. I realize that some people might have a hard time believing that; but it is the truth and I would be willing to spend time in jail for the very purpose, if it ever became needful to do so.
Therefore, I am removing all links on this website to “The American Conservative.” I respect the opinions of Rod Dreher and of Daniel Larison. However, for me to have a link on this website to that website might signal to some that I totally agree with the editorial board with their position on Israel. Let me state emphatically in the strongest terms that I can present to my readers. Anyone who assumes that I agree with the idiotic position of the “American Conservative” is a moronic fool and does not know me or values that were instilled in me is a child in the Church.
The reason I have decided to this is that Scott McConnell, who is one of the founders of The American Conservative took to the magazine’s blog and boasted of the fact that he participated in the Anti-Semitic “Occupy AIPAC” demonstration in Washington D.C. This is inexcusable in my opinion, the occupy movement has been a hotbed of hatred, class warfare and Anti-Semitism. If Mr. McConnell believes that the occupy movement is even remotely a Conservative movement or a pro-American movement then he has a serious problem.
If Rod Dreher and of Daniel Larison should ever decide to leave the American Conservative and blog elsewhere I will consider linking to their posting and writing about it on this blog. Until this, I will not be linking to any of their writings anymore. Because there is one thing that I will never support and that is Jew hatred and that is what this “occupy APIAC” is all about, hatred of Israel, hatred of Jews and hatred if everything related to that — including American’s capitalistic system.
Furthermore, I have removed Ron Paul’s graphic and link to his site from this blog. As much as I agree with Ron Paul’s federalism, as much as I agree with Ron Paul’s disagreement with the Wilsonian foreign policy crowd. I do not want to be associated with anyone who has associations with Jew haters and Ron Paul is often lauded by the American Conservative magazine.
I am an avid supporter of freedom of speech and diversity of political opinion, but there are just some political opinion and some kinds of speech that very unsuitable for mainstream consumption. The American Conservative is one of those publications and I do not wish to be associated with it. In other words, I would not link to neo-Nazi website on this blog, and I will not link to a website or publication that shares these sorts of views when it comes to Jews and Israel.
I believe that Ron Paul does not win Presidential elections for a very good reason, and this that I have highlighted is one of them. For the record, I do not know that Ron Paul totally agrees with the nonsense spewed at this magazine or its website. However, his position of Israel speaks volumes. Again, my vote for Ron Paul was a protest vote against the big government statism that has become the norm in the Republican Party. Nothing further, than that, should be derived, from my voting for Ron Paul.
I just will not support bigots, hate mongers, or racists; I was not raised to think like that, anyone who might have assumed anything other than that which I have written above; was quite highly mistaken. My battle on this blog is limited to the far liberal left in this Country and its politics, how they poison the minds of the black community and other minorities as well. My battle is not one of skin color at all. Nor is it against the Jews or Israel. If anyone happened to come to this blog and assumed that, you were wrong and I apologize for the confusion.
‘You Get What You Deserve, White Boy’
You think only white people can be racist? You think that racial violence happens to blacks?
Think again. Here’s some video for you: (via the Blaze)
The story via blaze:
Police in Kansas City are investigating a possible hate crime after a 13-year-old boy was doused in gasoline and set on fire. According to Allen Goin’s mother, the attack occurred just as her son was getting home from school. She said, “They rushed him on the porch as he tried to get the door open…one of them poured gasoline, then flicked the Bic and said, ‘This is what you deserve. You get what you deserve white boy.’”
The police say the boy was engulfed in a “large fireball,” but was able to beat out the flames to call 911 and his father. In addition to suffering first degree burns, he has lost his eyebrows, eyelashes, and part of the skin on his face. There is also long-term concern about his eyes and lungs.
The family intends to move out of fear that the attackers went to their son’s school, which KMBC reports he will not return to. Melissa Coon, the boy’s mother, said her youngest son, 5, asked her, “Mom, am I going to get set on fire today?”
“I was in tears,” she said.
Now I am going to make something very clear here; I do not advocate any sort of racism or racial violence towards black people at all. In fact, I find the mentality of the white nationalists, skinheads, neo-Nazis and other sort of people to be deplorable. One cannot fight race hatred with race hated, because it is a sick mentality. However, I believe it is very important to point out that the liberal left in this Country or the progressive left, if you wish to call them that — are the ones who foster this sort of mentality of racial bigotry between the races. They have been doing it for years and it does not look like it is going to change anytime soon.
I also find it amazing that in the first video, nothing was said about race at all. In the second video, you see the mother use the term, “White Boy.” However, the suspect’s race was never brought up at all, in either news report; that is because the liberal left in this Country with their “Frankfort School of Political Correctness” tells these news outlets not to mention the race of the people who commit the crimes, especially if they are black. This is because it destroys the narrative that only white people, like me, commit racially based crimes and never blacks or Latinos. Again, this is the influence and the power that the radical left holds in this Country’s media; I know personally too well about it. My cousin Michael Hill was murdered by three corrupt black Detroit police officers in 1994. The details of his death were totally lied about to the media; did any media people both in investigate about how he really died? Not one media outlet would even cover it. This is because the cops were black and my cousin, who was only 24, was white.
This is why I run this blog; this is why I write with such fury about the progressive left. This is why I seem to have it out for the Democratic Party. Because they have ruined my Country, because they hate America and values we stand for. Because when they are not spewing racism from websites, or are demanding Americans to pay for their sexual adventures, then when their activists get mocked by the right, they demand we apologize — all the while, they mock Christians and citizens of the south, when they are not trying to murder our white children.
I am a White Conservative, I am a White Christian, I am Andrew Breitbart — and this is war. 😡
Colorado Megachurch Mulls Split from denomination over gay marriage
Stories like this warm my heart on a Sunday:
A church in Colorado Springs, Colo., that has 4,000 members and was established in 1872 will informally vote Sunday to decide whether the congregation should leave their denomination, the Presbyterian Church (USA), over same-sex marriage.
First Presbyterian Church in Colorado Springs will vote Sunday afternoon and later may seek to join the conservative Evangelical Covenant Order of Presbyterians (ECO), launched by conservative Presbyterians in January over the denomination’s vote last year to lift its longtime ban on gay clergy, The Gazette reported.
After PC(USA) removed the constitutional requirement for clergy to live “in fidelity within the covenant of marriage between a man and a woman, or chastity in singleness” last May, dozens of congregations left the denomination. Covenant Presbyterian Church of Ligonier, Pa., parted ways late last year. In Ohio, four churches that were once part of the Miami Valley Presbytery also voted overwhelmingly to leave PC(USA). Churches in Washington, Wisconsin and California have also voted to cut ties.

Nothing makes me happier than to see Christians actually standing up for what they believe in. Too many times, Christians will take the path of least resistance and that cheapens the gospel, if you ask me. Because of that, to see a big Church like this, much less a Presbyterian Church of this size; take a stand of this sort, is rather surprising and refreshing to tell you the truth.
My Prayers are with those who dare to stand for they, as believers, know to be right.
Sorry, But, this is a bunch of bullcrap!
Just a little more of a comment on the contraception debate, that I am trying like heck to avoid.
I happen to see this little entry pop up in my RSS feed reader. Now let me say this; I am all for freedom of speech, but when I see a writer over at The American Conservative Magazine write something, like what I have quoted below, I tend to get a bit ticked off.
If Limbaugh had cited Percy instead of channeling any random, dull-witted high school sophomore; then rightwingers like Dana Loesch and William Jacobson wouldn’t have had to waste their energy on lame attempts at damage control.
Now, I have not the least clue who Clark Stooksbury is, nor do I quite honestly give two flips really; but this quoted above, is why I distance myself from the Paleoconservative right. Because they are in bed with the liberal left. I mean, seriously? “Right-Wingers??!” that term being used on “The American Conservative?!?” Does anyone else see a problem with that, besides me?!?!
I guess one can expect this from a magazine that is quite known for its Anti-Israel and Anti-Jewish Bias.
Also too, yeah, I know, I have Rod Dreher and Daniel Larison in my blogroll; I did that because I happen to respect these gentleman’s opinions on politics and I happen to consider them true Conservatives. However, if all this magazine is going to do is continue to push out leftist bile of this sort on its blogs; I might actually have to reconsider that decision.
Upon further research, it seems that Clark Stooksbury is a blogger from Knoxville, TN and has been blogging since 2004. He must be one of those hicks from the south, who was against Bush. His blog is a leftist’s dream, with goofy colors and videos of Bob Dylan records playing. Some blog. 🙄
I will keep Rod and Daniels blogs in the blogroll, but I doubt I will be linking to @TAC anytime soon. I mean, calling mainstream Conservatives “right-wingers!?!” That is just asinine leftist bullshit and I am shocked that the editors over at TAC would even tolerate such tripe. I know if I was the editor there, I would tell this dude to get lost.
Andrew Breitbart RIP
I feel like a guitarist, who is standing on a stage and has sudden realized; he has forgotten the chords to the song he is supposed to be playing.
I mean what words can be written about the man that has not already been written already somewhere else?
I am referring, of course, the passing on Conservative Lion, Warrior, and Publisher Andrew Breitbart, who died last night around midnight at the age for 42.
He was only three years older than I am; this is why this hits me so very hard. I wake up around my normal time and grabbed my iPod, to see what is going on the world and this comes up. I let out a rather loud, “Yeah Right!” and figure it is another one of this man’s pranks.
It is not a prank. (At least I like the think that it is not a prank…)
I did not always agree with his tactics, I did not like what he had to say about Ted Kennedy when he died, I blogged about that on my old blog. I thought it was morally wrong and I told him so in a tweet once. I was so incensed about it that I blocked him on twitter for a very long while.
However, the man could not be and would not be ignored; at least not by me. He took risks; he always had the uncanny ability to dig up some of the best stuff on the left and literally would use it against them. I admired him for that; because you realize, I used to vote Democratic Party and I knew and still do know about how they pit race against race, class against class — all of that — and Andrew knew it and played it for every damned bit it was worth.
====
In this section here, I had some thoughts about Andrew’s death. After thinking about it; I have decided to remove them, out of respect for the family.
====
The bottom line is this; the Conservative world has lost its “Merry Prankster.” It has lost its warrior and nobody will ever fill those shoes, not even bloggers; because Andrew took the risks and was willing to stick his neck out to expose the left and its misdeeds.
Andrew will be missed by many, including me.
My Prayers go to the family and his wife and Children.

Sorry Tina, But that is not what the Bible says!
Here I go again, criticizing what I know to be wrong and it coming from a so-called Catholic and Christian; not to mention a so-called Conservative blog. I have done this before, and now it appears that I have to do it again.
Tina Korbe discussing how Catholics are up in arms about the Obama Administration’s Birth Control mandate:
Ms. Fluke, I resent that you think women are incapable of controlling themselves, of sacrificing temporary pleasure for the sake of long-term success. You make us sound like animals, slaves to our instincts and able to be used, but we’re better than that. We’re persons, equal to men in dignity and love.
via Georgetown co-ed: Please pay for us to have sex … We’re going broke buying birth control « Hot Air.
Yeah, they’re equal, the classic feminist argument. Trouble is, it is not even remotely Biblical.
Quoting the Word of God:
Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety. — (1 Timothy 2:11-15 KJV)
—
Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. (Ephesians 5:22-24 KJV)
—
This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband. — (Ephesians 5:32-33 KJV)
If I were Tina’s fiancee, and I saw that she wrote this; and I would head over to Tina’s house, take my ring back and inform her that I was breaking off the engagement. Because when a woman says the word “equal” she usually means “as great or greater than the man.” Which usually means that she intends to rule her man, like most feminists usually do. This is not a Christian mentality, this is a Satanic and quite ungodly mentality that is usually associated with the liberal left in this Country.
But then again, we are dealing with the blog that is quite known for its Neoconservative political positions and also for it’s quite ungodly friendliness to the Sodomite lifestyle.
