The Oath Of The President

Posted by TrueBlueAmerican on Thursday, October 22, 2009 11:33:12 AM
In a high school government class they teach students, or at least let's hope they still do this,  that the President takes an oath to before taking the highest office in America.  The words that make up this oath have been used since George Washington days and to the present day.  When Barack Hussein Obama said this Oath in January 2009,  the words were not changed.  He swore upon a bible that he " solemnly swear  that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter."   Remember the words "support and defend the Constitution".   
In the past couple of weeks the White House has been on a rampage to silence all sources who are against them and their ideas.  The list goes on for miles and includes,  insurance companies,  Fox News, The Commerce Department and so on and so on.  It has come to the point that  Americans keeping up with the news of  the day are beginning to get confused.  Who is on the "list"?  Why?  Are you kidding?  When the White House decided to discredit Fox News  on other news station,  even Helen Thomas, who  is not a fan of conservatives by any means,  warned he White House not to go there"  However, big time Chicago Thugs see it different.  Discredit Fox News,  and keep everyone talking about this scandal while they take care of other matters.  Think along the lines of changing healthcare.  No one should notice.  Americans are much too busy looking elsewhere.  
Also today, Thursday, October 22 there is a bill on the floor that will change the way Americans will be viewing the Internet. It is called "Net Neutrality", nice sounding name but doesn't the Fairness Doctrine sound nice too.    Big Government not only wants to line up the news source on Television that are not appropriate for the viewing audience, they will also control the content on the Internet.  A Fairness Doctrine for the Internet, and the Radio industry thought they would be alone in their fight to keep information free and out of government control.  Is the puzzle now staring to come together for everyone yet?   Let's not forget, bailing out the newspapers whose circulation numbers are so low, that it is on life support.   If the Government can now own the Banking industry,  the Automotive Industry,  why not own the papers too! Americans are too busy with other matters.  
All of this is coming down to destroying the most important part of the Constitution.  The rights of citizens to express themselves without fear of  punishment from the Government. This means citizens have the right to voice a different opinion than those expressed from the highest office.  They have a right to assemble peacefully in protest of the government.  They have a right to practice the religion of their choice.  What the White House and the Democrat leaders are now doing is dismantling the Constitution of the United States, beginning with number one on the Bill of Rights.  Shut down the voices of dissent.   Governmental controls will be in control of news contents, with no explanations or questions allowed.  America will cease to be free.  America will have lost her soul if Americans allow their government to continue on this path.   The  truth is chilling.  
America has withstood enemies before.  Never have the citizens ever had to worry about the enemies from within their own country.  This President promised,  just like all the others before him, that he would  support and defend the Constitution of the United States.  He has already broken his promise.  By targeting the voices that disagree with him, he has made it clear that there will be no voice to listen to but HIS. Someone close to him should remind him that he is President not King. Unfortunately,  the people he has surrounded himself with are little henchmen who have been dreaming of the day that they could have their own Castro,  Chairman Mao, Stalin, Chavez and Hitler all rolled into one person.  Isn't it obvious that Obama did not take the words seriously in the Oath?  He admitted himself he does not believe the Constitution is good enough to rule because it leaves no "positive" acts that a government can do to its people.  It is too constricting.  Mr. President, the American People are not stupid.  A government who has unlimited power on what they can do to it's citizens is not a model of  a Republic.  It is a model of socialism, communism and a totalitarian government.  Americans, if they choose,  can read between the lines of your words.  If Americans don't stand up now, the rights that generations of Americans have enjoyed for over two hundred years, will be taken away and there will be no turning back.

The Stimulus debacle

Posted by TrueBlueAmerican on Wednesday, February 11, 2009 8:41:39 AM
We've got to do something.  We've got to get it done now.  The support among American citizens  for the Stimulus package is dwindling.  Once the details are seeping out,  it becomes clear that the bill is nothing more of some ol' Washington at it's spending best.  It really isn't necessary for Obama to take his show on the road,  this is just a rerun of the show he put on in October and November.  The only difference is that this time he is President and his credibility is on the line. Why is it that support is going down the tubes for this out of control spending spree?  As citizens of this great nation, we have unfortunately, become accustomed to our government spending like drunken sailors.  What is really gotten the attention of the American public is that the government wants to work quickly and swiftly on this bill.  Since when does the government ever work quickly?  
For all of his charm and wittiness,  Obama still looks like a lawyer who is chasing the ambulances in the streets of Chicago.  All he truly needs is a business card ready to give to any passing "victim" and promise them a big check from the rich people who will pay for the poor slob's pain and suffering.   The Democrats Stimulus plan is just as slimy, underhanded and detestable as a lawsuit for a slip-and-fall.  Somebody's going to pay for the "miseries" of our  society.  It might as well be the American taxpayers. Obama may be president, but he certainly does not have the best interest of the American public on his mind.  At this own press conference, he looks over people, down to people and read his statements as if they are to be carved out in stone and never questioned.  The President becomes agitated when people question any part the bill.  Why shouldn't the government get a whole new fleet of hybrid cars?  Well, let's see, Mr. President, we  have no money to pay for hybrid cars that have not proven that they are fuel efficient.   Fact remains that the gas guzzlers that liberals hate so much are actually cheaper to maintain and own than the hybrid. What happens to the older fleet?  Junk yard?  Better yet,  will you and your Democrat buddies be driving or flying?  No doubt the choice of travel  will be flying in the oversized,  fuel guzzling jets.  
Washington is not listening to the American voters.  The evidence is in the passing of the bill that anyone with a brain can see that it's aim is not to help but to hurt the future of our country.  What can be said about a government who claims to be representative but no longer holds the ideal of it's own constitution?  What can be said of the men and women who were voted into office to be the voice for their districts, who in turn will vote against the wishes of their constituents?  What can be said of the President who can't look the American people in the eye and arrogantly chastises  those who dare to disagree with him?  With all due respect Mr. President,  you won the election,  but as Presidents before you might have told you if you listened,  the battle has just begun.  There were 56 million Americans who did not vote for you.   These are the people who are concerned and  cautious of  your every move. 
The hypocrites of Washington elites  have convinced themselves that they know better.  They understand healthcare, eduction,  business and so much more than the average Joe.  They not only wrote the book on every topic under the sun,  they invented it! With that being said, how smart can they be at math when revenues are not flowing in and spending is going up? In a normal business,  this is when the financial records would be going into the RED.  No a pretty color. If letters, emails and calls to Washington are not getting heard by the right people,  bold action must be taken.  If taxpayers wait until 2010 to make their voices heard it will be too late.  The damage will have been done. The resignation for the Senators who have voted for the debacle should be demanded.  If  this does not happen,  it is time to impeach every single one of them.  Let these men and women know,  their action is the wrong one and it does have consequences.

What I am thankful for....

Posted by TrueBlueAmerican on Wednesday, November 26, 2008 9:00:00 PM
Before the Greatest President-elect ever takes his place in the oval office,  it would be a wise idea to publicly list all the things for which I am grateful for in my life.  Who know,  I may not get the opportunity  after January 20, 2009.    I will try to make the list short and  to the point, in an effort to keep the liberals' attention. 
First I am thankful for my husband.  I am thankful that I live in a country  that still recognizes that marriage is between a man and a woman. Having said that, all though it is nice to have that "recognition",  I do not need my government's blessing upon my marriage.  My Catholic church does  that for me, therefore  it is blessed by God. 
Second,  I am thankful for my parents, who are my biggest heroes.  If they did not leave their country and family to live the American dream,  I would not have the wonderful opportunities and blessings that I enjoy now as an American citizen.   They taught me to  persevere when the going got tough and to never become lazy or complacent.  If you want something bad enough,  you've got to go out and get it.  Don't depend on someone else to get it for you. 
Third,  I am grateful for the Big Three in Detroit.  If it were not for the Big Three Automakers in Detroit,  our city and state would have been a wasteland a long time ago.  The Big Three were the backbone of our economy for so long, that we have forgotten how interwoven they are in Detroit and America's workforce.  From engineers to assembly line workers to sales, these jobs have provided for many families.  They can still do so, but not without the support of the American people.  It is time to be thankful for all big corporations in America.  Without them, who would create jobs?  Who would stimulate growth and innovations? Corporations have been painted as "evil" by the far left for far too long.  It is only because of envy that people hurl the labels of greed, cold, calculating and ruthless at CEO's.    They are the ones who make things happen and for that I am grateful.  
Fourth,  I am grateful for the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness.  Without this basic right,  I would not be able to have the right to choose my religion or to choose what I read, say or speak.  Added to that,  I would not have the right to bear arms, to vote, or own property.   I am grateful for a government, that in theory, stands up for the American people.  It is a blessing to be able to remind this government that sometimes they have gone astray and it is the PEOPLE whose voices should be heard first. 
Finally,  I am grateful that God truly did shine his grace on America.  It is evident by so many factors, one of which, is the fact that we have not been attacked on our soil since September 11, 2001.  That's seven long years.  I just hope that with the new Administration that this record will not be broken.  
These are all the things I am grateful for in my life.  My only worry is that the blessings that I count today, will be wiped away by the Obama "not so much change" dream team.
