No Need to Vote in America

It appears that Barack Obama has proclaimed himself the President of the United States. Nope, we don't need to waste our time at the voting machines in November, it is already settled. Or at least that's what it appears.
Barack Obama decided to give himself foreign relations credentials, finally. The problem with his adventure is that he started making speeches in those countries, as if he had the authority to do so. Obama started laying out his plan for Europe while he is serving his "eight to ten years" as president. And yet, he isn't the official Democratic candidate yet. They haven't had their convention, so officially Obama is still their presumptive candidate.
In no other election has this elitist, defiant attitude ever surfaced in a candidate before. Throughout our history, no candidate ever went overseas to lay out their plan or to seek the roaring crowds of foreign nationals. John McCain, who is lacking in many areas for his liberal views, at least knows you do not make policy statements in a foreign country until you have the authority to do so.
As we have seen, our main stream media has remained neutral throughout this affair with Barack Obama. Yep, no obvious prejudices or self drawn conclusions. But may I ask, when has any of the news anchors taken a trip with McCain? The Republican candidate can't even get more than four reporters for important statements, but Obama can barely move because of the intense competition of the reporters trying to get the best angle or statement. Roughly two thousand asked for seats on the jet flying Obama around the world and forty were accepted. Even Jeff Greenfield of CBS news stated, "This saturation of coverage has already led the conservative blogosphere to offer blistering critiques of a liberal media slavishly treating Obama as a Pop Star. But... the sheer presence of media in no way guarantees favorable coverage." What does this tell you? Even Charles Krauthammer had this to say about the media love affair with Obama, "I think that the coverage is getting beyon presidential. It's papal. I mean, a president never has all three anchors on the way with him... If you needed any evidence of how much in the tank the mainstream media are, this is it." Obama dosen't need to spend the enormous amounts of campaign funds because the press is advertising for him, free of charge. But they want the "fairness doctrine" re-instated.
Yes, the press is in love with Obama and nothing he or his wife can say will diminish their fever for his ascension to the thrown. It doesn't matter if he hasn't any idea how long a president serves "eight to ten years" or "let me be absolutely clear. Israel is a strong friend of Israel's." or the fact that he has visited 57 states. "The Obama's seems like a finger-wagging principal and teacher tag team, with Michelle Obama promising that her husband will make us work harder when he becomes president." Sounds like we are going to be punished the moment Barack becomes president. But if you look at his economic plan, I guess she is right. We will have to work harder and longer to pay for the extra taxes.
I will end this article with a statement from our friend and staunch supporter of the Constitution of the United States, Mr. Rush Limbaugh, "The idea that four months before a presidential election a candidate can run through these countries, meet some world leaders, and claim experience in these matters may impress the liberal media, but to me, it exposes just how unprepared for the presidency this guy is... I have never seen a presidential candidate with less to offer this nation - yet with more arrogance and self-delusion - than Barack Obama."

Democrats against America

Have you been watching the debate over oil and drilling? It sure is apparent who is for America and who is trying to send us back to the 8th century with our Islamic neighbors. The Democrats are demanding that the oil companies use the leases they already own before they consider the leasing of additional land. If you listen to the oil companies, many of these so called leases have been receded by the federal government. Another report suggests that the sites they hold for exploration, are not guaranteed to hold much oil. Considering the cost of drilling, it is important for any company to explore the most productive and assured locations rather than gamble on hypothetical.

America has enough oil to run this country for 60 - 100 years, with no outside purchases. I am quite sure that within the sixty year mark we can have enough alternative energy to sustain our country forever. Yet Senator Obama and the Democratic front, expect us to switch to alternative energy right now. Pelosi wants the emergency reserves released, which will tide us over for two weeks and nothing more. Yet Obama and Pelosi refuse to consider any form of energy other than solar, wind or bio-fuel. How preposterous and moronic can this course of action be?

If I get my history right, and I probably will not be exact but pretty close, the enviormental movement has been fighting against oil and industry for over forty years. They started a campaign against SUV's in the 1990's, complaining about the gas they used and the size of the vehicle. In the seventies they were shouting about the earths demise through a new ice age that would hit by the 1990's. They have fought against any progression or protection of this country for the benefit of some wildlife that no one has ever seen. But they have finally overcome their bonds of silliness and have gotten the entire Democratic party on their side. Al Gore has stated the the government should increase gas to five dollars a gallon to reduce our dependency on the substance, we are almost there.

It is funny, because when House Speaker Pelosi took the gavel she proclaimed that now that the Democrats were in charge she was going to fix the oil problem. At the time we were paying $2.25 a gallon. Well, as you can see, she has fixed the problem and followed Al Gores lead. Ever time the Republicans submit a proposal for our energy problems they are shouted down or rejected. Nancy Pelosi has recently said that she will NOT allow an energy vote to occur before their summer break. Here we are with gas at $4.11 a gallon and the Democrats refuse to even consider a cure.

What's worse, is the hypocrisy of the politicians, while they moan that we, the little people, are having major problems with fuel, they suggest that we stop driving. They expect us to bicycle to work and buy hybrid cars. Congress wants us to use poisonous light bulbs and turn down your air conditioner in the summer and turn down you heater in the winter. As Ms. Obama suggest, we will have to learn to live with less. The funny thing is, all of these people use limousines or large cars, driven by chauffeurs, they fly private jets or leased jets. When is the last time you say a congressman flying coach with you? Even today, Al Gore was seen idling his limo for over twenty minutes waiting for someone, and not wanting to get hot in the car, he mad ensure the engine was running and the AC was on. These elite snobs are destroying your world, but refuse to relinquish any part of their domain. This is what socialism is all about, only the elite will have and all the other people will be subjects, insuring the elites continued wealth and privilege.

So America, we have two choices, either we vote out every person who has voted against our energy independence without sending us into the eighth century or we can accept the socialist lifestyle. Retain our freedom or relinquish it to the fascist who want to subjugate you. "Vote for Change" but be aware that the change you vote for may not be what you think your getting. You can learn to do with less and hand your children a country destroyed by socialism/fascism or you can give them a better start. If our president and congress does not understand our need for energy independence from every country and that we should drill, use nuclear, clean coal, solar and wind, then we need to change all of them to true representatives of the people.

Teacher Union out to destroy America

Recently I have been reading about the abuses and complaints of the infamous Teachers Union and their members. I never realized just how corrupt and self centered this group of individuals apparently are. If they belong to the union and support the union's views, then I guess I can safely assume they are in bed with this self-centered political force.

Oh, yes, they are a political force. The Democratic Party has nurtured and pampered this group of citizens and the union and it's members reward the party with their blind faith. As long as the Democratic Party continues to honor, praise, reward and protect the Teachers Union, the teachers will support the Democrats no matter who or what policies they run under. This is a sizable voting block that must be protected at all cost ... your cost.

Lets examine how mistreated and unfortunate our teachers are. In 1999 the average of $43,100.00 a year. Now keep in mind, this is for a total of one hundred and eighty days of work. A teachers salary is higher than our police (who happen to protect us), firemen (who also happen to protect us) About the only people that make more than teachers are doctors, lawyers, engineers and politicians. Of that group, the only people who may work less than teachers would be the politician. And that is obvious when you watch congress on the television, they are never present. According to a survey compiled by Vedder: "Teachers earned more per hour than architects, civil engineers, mechanical engineers, statisticians, biological and life scientists, atmospheric and space scientists, registered nurses, physical therapists, university-level foreign-language teachers, librarians, technical writers, musicians, artists, and editors and reporters."

But the perks don't stop here. Teachers are the only profession that has "special" recognition days. The Federal Government has a recognize the teacher day, the states and some cities have a recognition day and a number of private industries chimed in. With each award, money and gifts are given for a teacher do to their job, teach. When was the last time the federal government acknowledged for doing your job? When is the last time you saw "Fireman of the Year Award"? "Plumber of the Year Award." "Housewife of the Year Award." Yet, teachers are given every recognition possible and afforded gifts of money, vacations and discounts. How would you like to go the Busch Gardens for free? Before I leave compensation matters I would like to bring up their real benefits, like free health care for life and a very good retirement system, which actually punishes you if you delay your retirement. Where else can you get a job with such great potential.

You, my fellow American, are paying these teachers to do nothing but slander America and demean God and country. When teachers can, without mandate, yell to the students that "Bush is like Hitler!" something is dreadfully wrong in our educational system. Recently I heard about a teacher that forced the students in his class to bow down and worship Allah, so they may have an understanding of Islam. When a school in Pennsylvania had the children chant "celebrate Kwanzaa" but refused any acknowledgement of Christmas carols, we have a problem.

Our teachers have embraced the mantra of socialism and the ideal of Marxist principles and are spreading the news to our children. That is why the Democratic Party MUST maintain control of the public schools. According to John Dewey, the founder of public education in America, said, "You can't make Socialists out of individualists-children who know how to think for themselves spoil the harmony of the collective society which is coming, where everyone is interdependent." Even the socialist founder Lenin proclaimed "Give me your four-year-olds, and in a generation I will build a Socialist state." Hitler even stated, "Let me control the textbooks and I will control the state." Why do the Democrats want to make sure they control the schools?

What about the great job teachers are doing? Lets see. Using the International comparisons, our fourth graders score he 92% in science, 70% in reading, 58% in math. Beating countries such as Germany, France and Italy. By the time these students get to 12th grade, the scores are dreadfully different. Science scores alone plummeted us to the 29% range. We went from 92 to 29 in only a matter of a few years in our public schools. Too many children are graduating from high school who cannot read or write. They cannot pass a simple literacy test and get a reasonable job. In 2003, the New York State courts officially found that graduates of the New Your City's public schools are not competent to sit on a jury.

Some funnier stats come from teacher applicants. In Massachusetts in 1998, fifty-nine percent of the candidates for teaching positions failed a basic skills test geared for eighth graders. In response, the commission suggested the passing score be lowered from 77 percent to 66 percent. There was a teacher in New York City who could not pass his exam and he hired a homeless man on the street to take the test for him.

These are just a few examples of the injustice the Teachers Union places on the taxpayer. This is the same union that is fighting to stop home schooling, they are making the "real" teachers look bad. Socialism, Fascist and Islam all rely upon one thing, ignorant subjects. That is what our schools are producing each and every day, and we reward our teachers for their vigor in destroying our great country. It our fault that America will fall, because we do NOT take a stand and force our schools to teach and not brainwash. If our teachers cannot teach they should be fired and retired citizens with practical experience should be hired, they would do a much better job than submitting our kids to brainwashed teachers in a government supported school system.
