Why do I feel sooo dirty?

Welcome again, my flock of followers.

Now as many of you know, I don't like being the last to know things, so I get periodic emails from my 'friend' Barack Obama. (you can read it in its entirety bellow.)

Now, what I want to know is.... am I the only one that gets the weird 'Father Whats-his-name just asked me to go into the confessional so he could get a good look at the "demon" in my pants' feeling about this?

He is overseeing one of the worst economic time our country has seen in a great time, while spending every dollar he can get his hands on..... and he wants MORE!? We are beginning to be taxed to death, and that's not enough? Oh, and I LOVE the It doesn't matter how much you can give, as long as you give what you can bit there at the end. What.... If we don't give as much as we can.... god will kill Barack? Wait where have I heard that before?

Okay my Brothers and Sisters that's enough for now.....

Now here's the letter.....

J --

Last year, millions of Americans came together for a great purpose.

Folks like you assembled a grassroots movement that shocked the political establishment and changed the course of our nation. When Washington insiders counted us out, we put it all on the line and changed our democracy from the bottom up. But that's not why we did it.

The pundits told us it was impossible -- that the donations working people could afford and the hours volunteers could give would never loosen the vise grip of big money and powerful special interests. We proved them wrong. But as important as that was, that's not why we did it.

Today, spiraling health care costs are pushing our families and businesses to the brink of ruin, while millions of Americans go without the care they desperately need. Fixing this broken system will be enormously difficult. But we can succeed. The chance to make fundamental change like this in people's daily lives -- that is why we did it.

The campaign to pass real health care reform in 2009 is the biggest test of our movement since the election. Once again, victory is far from certain. Our opposition will be fierce, and they have been down this road before. To prevail, we must once more build a coast-to-coast operation ready to knock on doors, deploy volunteers, get out the facts, and show the world how real change happens in America.

And just like before, I cannot do it without your support.

So I'm asking you to remember all that you gave over the last two years to get us here -- all the time, resources, and faith you invested as a down payment to earn us our place at this crossroads in history. All that you've done has led up to this -- and whether or not our country takes the next crucial step depends on what you do right now.

Please donate whatever you can afford to support the campaign for real health care reform in 2009.

It doesn't matter how much you can give, as long as you give what you can. Millions of families on the brink are counting on us to do just that. I know we can deliver.

Thank you, so much, for getting us this far. And thank you for standing up once again to take us the rest of the way.

Sincerely,

President Barack Obama

Sorry, but the Book Donkey got me started.

My dear, close friend John. May I start with, I love you. I love your family, I love your convictions. Now, as usual, in my own way, I agree with you..... partially.
Lets just say, hypothetically, a pro lifer, posts a message on a pro life website, asking how to infiltrate a well known abortion Doctors church, not the outside, but on the inside. Then a few months later, looks up directions, gets in his car, drives approximately 3 hours, walks into a CHURCH, locates his target, and shots him in the head at point blank range, walks out the door and starts to drive home. Hypothetically that is the definition of a premeditated ASSASSINATION.
Dr. Tiller, was assassinated, for his profession, his LEGAL profession.
I do not respond much, but as a born bred Wichitian, this hits a nerve. I lived through everyday of the "Summer of mercy." And am very, very pro choice.... POLITICALLY. Morally, I am pro life. However if you want to see what happens when you legislate morality, Google the Taliban.
Now for the rest of it I think you hit the nail on the head. When a 'religious' individual kills in the name of god, well, I agree with you.
Now for my sub-counter point. Pretty much as soon as women, started getting pregnant, they started trying to figure out how to undo it. We have come a long way in medical science and now have a means of providing that service with a low mortality rate. What happens when you make that procedure illegal? All abortions stop? Don't kid yourself. Can you say.... coat hanger? Good.... I knew you could. (sorry bad Mr. Rodgers crack)Just because they are illegal does not mean they don't happen! At least Dr Tiller gave his patients a choice. Yes he performed abortions, and yes some were late term, under special circumstances. But how many pro lifers standing in a picket line taunting panicked girls, stopped to really talk to them instead of showing them horrid pictures and telling them they were going to hell? (remember I saw the summer of mercy first hand.) Dr. Tiller did that. He gave counseling, and even helped some of his patients change their mind. Nobody talks about that.
Okay, now I apologize. not for what I said, but for how the reader of this takes it, I know I can be blunt, and this subject got me worked up. At the vigil for Dr Tiller Sunday night, speaking first hand, the atmosphere was full of love and morning, as opposed to the hateful "christians" across the street. (well as much as you can call the Phelps Wackadoos 'christian')
Dr Tiller, agree with him or not, was a hero in his own way.
Now as the hour is late, and I must call it a night, let me emphasize, John, in NO WAY is this 'rant' an attack on you! Its just a response.

I think we are in trouble

For love of country we need help.
Today we took one step down the path of destruction. Now I know, "The big bad men took bonus' from the taxpayers!" That was bailout money to be used to save the company, but instead they used it to line their own pockets.
Now, I am not going to say you are foolish to believe that. But if you think that we need to grab our pitchforks and start chasing them down, well, I would call you uninformed.
Do they actually deserve the money? I don't know. However they had a contract, thanks to our governing 'asses' they were allowed to keep it.
But enough of that. That was only the flies on the poop.
Today, the house passed a bill, 328-93, that would tax individuals on any bonuses received in 2009 from companies getting $5 billion or more in money from the Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP. Bonuses for people with incomes over $250,000 would be taxed at a 90 percent rate. ((http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/03/19/bonus.bill/index.html))
I can not express my fears for the precedent that this gives!
REGARDLESS of your political beliefs, liberal, conservative, moderate or fracking nut job, this shit is scary!
There has been 'taxation without representation.' But never before on this level have we ever singled out a group, (as of NOW,) law abiding U.S. citizans, to commit 'taxation for vindication!'

If they do not deserve the money, we can sue them, or use any other of a long list of LEGAL means to recoup the less then 1% of the total bailout money from them. But we didn't. Why, there were no legal means as of yet, because there is no proof of wrong doing.

We came to a very, very dangerous fork in the road to our future today, and in my eyes, we went down the wrong path!

Please if nothing else watch them, and remember when election day comes. It has come time to start voting not our party, but our country's future.

Obama is worse the 9-11 for the economy?!?

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123604419092515347.html

Just a quick one before I go to work.
Have been hearing things about Obama's scorecard being the Dow.....

Now if I have my facts right, (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:DJIA_during_911.svg) after 9-11 the Dow dropped to just over 8000, and that was a disaster.... now we have gone from 9034 on Jan 2 09 to to 6763. Just saying....

Oh and if you didn't believe that the 'driveby media' was hyping Obama, check this link out. How wrong was CNBC here? http://www.cnbc.com/id/28557265/

Told you this would be short

What flavor was the kool-aid?

Yesterday, I was talking to a friend I work with. He is a Sheep. He knows this, because I tell him all the time. I call him a sheep with love, and he knows it. He has a couple of strikes against him, He was raised in Colorado for one, and married a girl that is a mass fundraiser for the Democratic party in Kansas. The poor Sheep never had a chance.
....Anyway.....
I was talking to this friend, and told him of a flair I sent to some friends and family, that had the Kool-aid man on it, with Obama in front saying, "gotcha sucker, you drank the kool-aid didn't you?" Now what was my Sheep-friends response? "What flavor was it?"
That stopped me for a moment, Flavor? ummm, "Jonestown" I answered. ;)

Everything I see about the current administration is suicidal.
Mr. Clinton reduced the Homeland security budget, DOD budget, and raised taxes. (until the end, when he lowered taxes to help get that surplus the left is always talking about.) That recipe for disaster gave us the gift of Sep 11 2001. Yes I did just blame 9-11 on Clinton. Mr. Obama is following the same recipe, but this time he's making a BIG cake for us! I am scared to death to see what tomorrow brings us.
We are becoming a weak country! As a majority we are so wrapped up if the "messiah" like President, that whatever he says is Gospel. Which leads us right back to Sheep.... they will follow ANYBODY! (and, yes, that WAS a jesus joke for those of you keeping count of my offensive comments :)
So back to suicide.
Crisis, crisis, doom and despair. Worst economic situation ever..... All are lies. We were worse off in the 80's! Higher unemployment then now, greater decrease in revenue, and how did he fix it? he LOWERED TAXES AND STOPPED SPENDING.
I just heard a comment made by the almighty Rush, that pointed out that Obama has proposed more spending since he took office, then in the ENTIRE lifespan of America! If that is true, (I have not done my research so will not say 100% true, remember I am not a sheep, I question even those I trust.)
What future does our country have if we don't stop this? We must, and by we I mean all of us, people and Sheep together, MUST stand up and question, and stop this destruction of our country.
Oh and btw 52% to 46% is NOT a landslide!!!!

My closing note for today,
Think, get angry, Stand up, and demand change GOOD for our country!
---oh and I'm still accepting apologies, I haven't received any yet. But they are coming, I know they are.

Now accepting appologies

Holly Crap.
I am not going to spend allot of time on this tonight. I'm not going to bring in research or links. I am just shooting from the hip.

I, deserve an apology!
Anyone that voted for Obama, because he was the "cool" one, was more interested in Americas first black President, or was too scared to come off as racist for voting for the old white guy, or just blindly followed the drive by media without looking at the issues, you ALL owe me, my children, and the rest of America an apology!
I understand that McCain was not the ideal candidate, I was not 100% behind him myself, but I did not fear for the future of our country. We are barely a month into this and already it feels like the stars have burnt out, the field of blue has faded, and the red stripes have lost their will to stay attached.
That leaves us with a white flag.
How can he think that spending more then we have can even think about helping? I am so frustrated now, that I can't even form a logical argument.
I feel like I'm talking to a bunch of two year-olds telling them the sky is blue and they turn and say no! its polk-a-doted!
How can they not see what is sitting there right in front of them? We joked before the election that people were "drinking the kool-aid." I had no idea it was left over Jones town recipe!

Is there something I'm missing? Why can I not see the greatness in this man? What is wrong with me?
In my past I have felt this way before. I had lost my faith. Everyone around me had this great love of god, and I couldn't find it. I wasn't touched. I was lost, where was this great feeling? I looked everywhere, I asked everyone. Then it hit me, there s no god, I don't need one. The moment I realized that, a huge weight was lifted and I found my peace.
I am back to that point again, (not with my faith, I fear its gone for good,) I'm on the outside looking in. Watching all these Obamaniacs, piss themselves over a hack that is slowly, no quickly running our country into the dirt.
I am fearful for my future, for my children's future. Our old friend Bill decided to cut the defence budget and I woke one morning hearing unbelievable stories about planes hitting the World trade center. WHY ARE WE THERE AGAIN? What will be the next attack on our country?

Would someone PLEASE tell me I am being dramatic and this is all a delusional rant that has no bases in reality!!!

I fear that I may be one of the first in the camp...

So I was at work today, and I had an AWFUL thought. And I mean AWFUL! (For those of you who really know me, you will understand better then those learning of me through this blog.)
I miss Clinton. Yes, Bill Clinton. I liked W, I voted for him twice, and never once in the big picture regretted it.
Yes, i do believe that the economic tragedy we are currently living in, is his fault. He undid all that Reagan did and over time, well, here we are.
I served under Clinton for the first half of my military career and under W for the rest. Bill scared me. However this is the important part, I never doubted nor questioned his love for this great country that I live in. I can not say the same for Obama. I do not trust him, I do not believe him, and I am scared of him!
We all saw the nifty tee-shirts during the election, comparing Obama to Hitler, Marx, or other Communist or Socialist leaders. I found those funny, and thought about buying one for myself. Never did I think let alone in the first 20 days that he would start to prove all of them right.
You don't have to like Bush, there were many actions taken, choices made, paths chosen that I did not agree with, but he kept our country safe for 7 years after our lives were shaken to the core!
I remember when the U.S.S. Cole was bombed. I remember it well. I was in Adana Turkey in Operation Northern Watch. As an Airman this was the first time that I had ever been in a REAL treat con. I had trained for it, I had thought about it, but we were at peace and nobody out there had the guts to screw with us. Till then. I saw things there that I never thought I would see in a real world environment. Now don't get me wrong, I was not on a Front line. I did not see any of my friends die while I was there. I saw no action. This is a fact that I am both eternally grateful and yet saddened that I never had the chance to serve in that manor.

... But I digress...

When I read the news that Obama had dropped all charges against the Cole bombers and they had been released, ( http://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/02/05/uss.cole.bombing/index.html ) I about lost it, I have calmed down since then, as you can tell by the lack of cursing in this post. We are going to close Guitmo, and give them constitutional rights. ARE YOU FRACKING KIDDING ME? Since when do Terrorists deserve constitutional rights? The core of what the want to destroy, and we are going to use it to protect them? What next, are we going to forgive them because ********************Thought stopped and self Censored*******

Sorry, maybe time to switch gears. How is throwing trillions of dollars at a bunch of left-winged, pinko, tree hugging, socialist programs help the economy? Can we look at history? The new deal did not work. Reaganomics did. so lets of course go to the Newer deal. That makes sense.

Okay well it is now bedtime and I am forced to stop ranting. Need a good night sleep to go build the airplanes that Congress have deemed evil, but that is another post for another day.
