When Will We Impeach?

The collective thought of America today should be,  2010 is too late to strike and win back the country.  That is not the case.  Too  many of our fellow Americans have drank the Kool-aid that is laced with poisonous venom from Obama;'s camp.  In the past 100 days or so,  President Obama and his minions have set in motion the quickest switch to a socialist government ever imaginable.  Not one person on Election Night 2008 would have ever believed that this man would work as quickly, and without opposition.  There is a  need for strong leaders who will stand up for conservative principals,   and from the perspectives of many political observers, these leaders  have left Washington.  So the same old game plan is being used by Republicans, let's find the center and run with it.  How about this for an idea?  Let's find a backbone and run with that!  True conservative principals never die and never lose.  In the meantime,  the taxpayers by the executive Order of Obama, will make sacrifices to ensure for the next generation some glimmer of  hope. Maybe.  Is the man hypocritical or incompetent in leading this country.  Sadly, he is both and then he is not.  He is, as  Pravda would boast of their leaders in Russia, the best Marxist that ever lived.  Obama is not Russian, but he is a very good student of Socialism, Communism and Marxism.  He is building a movement bigger than the other three ideology combined and  enjoying the ride.   It is time to impeach the man for not only being incompetent, but also for treason.  No politician in their right  mind would set this economic disaster in motion without first thinking: How can I destroy America and make it work to my advantage?  Obama, Yes he can! 
Arguments that this is just fear mongering is for those who wish to place their heads firmly into the sand.  The evidence is overwhelming on the path that Obama has taken thus far.  First the banks.  Bailout as many banks as possible,  give out money without the intentions to track it,  create a "stress" test for banks that meets the Government standard of pass or fail and   do not let bankers pay back loans.  It's is a protection plan that only a thug in the Sopranos could administer, but alarmingly it is coming from the United States Government.  Now the government owns the banks. 
The next step to killing the American economy was a natural one.  Tied in with the banking,   Obama has  decreed  that Mortgage s and credit card companies must change their standard practice of business.   Mortgage companies can not foreclose on homes where the owners can not pay their monthly payments The credit card companies can not charge additional interest rates for those who do not pay on time.  In other words,  the financial sector of American Business  has just been told that they can not make money.  How many people does this policy actually help?  Well according to MSNBC,  Obama's expansion  of an existing 300 billion dollar program which aims tp adjust mortgage rates, aided a mere 50 homeowners out of 400,000 it was intended to help.  In other words,  the Americans who are suppose to live within their means can not do so under Obama's rescue.  That is by design, not accident.   After all If homeowners printed more money, they'd be in jail.  Obama does it because he can! 
Next, the Auto companies.  Print money to bailout the Big Three.  Knowing all along that the money could not save the companies from bankruptcy.  Tell the people what they want to hear.  Obama will fix everything,  only he and his mighty government can.  Remember bankruptcy was not an option, the auto industry was too big to fail.   The government now owns 70% of GM,  which has declared bankruptcy on June 1, 2009.  The President's Press Office claims that they will initiate plans for the Government to hand the company back over to the Auto Executives.  Believe this,  there will be a "Stress" test imposed on the Auto industries just as it is applied to the Banks.  The Great Stimulus of 2009 hasn't even managed one spark of hope. Many Chrysler dealerships are now fighting to stay open, because the White House has decreed that the dealerships are not viable.  When looking at the sales receipts of the dealership,  it appears that there is a blatant attempt to destroy the Auto Industries.  Why?  The only conclusionan be that Obama plans include the Auto Industries as another business in their control.  What's next?  Don't be alarmed:  Healthcare. 
On Wednesday,  May 27 Obama told his rich supporters in Hollyweird, that the economy was getting better.  We have turned the corner.   Yet, today only a mere five days later,  he announces that the Economy will take longer to recover and that even though we did not choose to sacrifice taxpayers will do it anyways.  Again, by the decree of the President.  It is not a stretch to say, Michigan can not handle more job losses.   Yet, just when the April unemployment numbers are at a record high,  Obama pulls the plugs on more jobs, and businesses.  Smart?  Yes, if one is looking to orchestrate a controlled crisis.  Not to worry,  single handily, Obama  has saved or created 500,000 new jobs.  That's liberal speak for, "It's fuzzy math, but don't worry in the end everything will be worth zilch so it doesn't matter anyways." 
Extremist Muslims and other who hate what American has been able to accomplish, have stated that the way to destroy America is within and through the financial systems.  Causing the rift in ties to American enterprise,  and a strong economy.  Could it be that the President is working with the enemy?  This is treason.  it is time to impeach before he destroys the country further.  Before our liberties are nothing more than a fading memory.

Just say NO!

At the time of writing this blog, the euphoria of the Republican's stand against Obama and the Democrat leaders is starting to wane, just  a little.  It is amazing that all the House Republicans and eleven Democrats voted against this bill.  This  inspires hope for the change America REALLY needs.  Congratulations to the Congressmen and women who voted against this overloaded pork bill.   It is now time to help the Republican Senators, and some Democrats too, to  buck the system and vote against this bill as well.   Just say no to spending that will spiral out of control.  Just say no to Obama for coming up with a plan that will bankrupt America, thus making it in essence the largest third world country.  Just say no to Pelosi, who can't explain how 335 million dollars for STD education is going to help the economy.  (Who can blame her?  No one could explain that one.) Just say no to Reid when he tries to ram a "different, yet the same" version of this bill because in his own words, "Stimulus is in the eye of the beholder, O.K?”
The change that Americans really need is Obama, Pelosi and Reid to get out of the way of true progress. Between the three of them and  the rest of the administration, not one of them have learned anything about economics 101.  Rule number one,  if you don't have money, you can't spend it.  Rule number two,  budget for the  essential items and save for the nonessentials items.  Rule number three,  printing more money does nothing but lower the value of the dollar and inflation goes through the roof.  Rule number four,  see Rule number one through three.  What is  keeping this economy from thriving are  high taxes.   Michigan is a prime example of what happens when taxes are too much and too high.  The population moves.  Businesses relocate.  Unemployment lines get longer.  
It is up to the American voters to call their  Senators, whether they are Republicans or Democrats, to encourage them to just say no to this awful spending spree that is labeled stimulus.   Demand to know the truth of what is in the bill.  Demand that Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi explain themselves why spending is so important right now.  Remind Obama that he promised a transparent administration not smoke and mirrors.  Let's ride the momentum that the House provided and derail this bill once and for all.  Every battle is important is this war against spending.  Obama may have won the Presidency but the American people have won their voices back.

What Michigan and the Big 3 should have taught us

Michigan seems to be a hot spot for political  news lately.  In pre-election days, the spotlight was on the state because of moving up the Primary.  We were told by the Democrat Party that the votes in Michigan would not count.  After all the hand ringing, they finally counted the votes but in the end it made little difference in the selection of the Democrat nominee.   A while later, before the Democrat convention no less,  Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick was facing some legal issues that eventually had him removed from office.  It seems that there is a pesky little law that states no one can lie under oath in a court of  law, even if you are the current mayor of Detroit. This made such a stir in the national news, that even the Messiah could not ignore the situation.  The Messiah of today does not dine or associate with sinners.  He tells them to stay away from convention, rallies and fundraisers so that there will be no questioning of  his standing as the nominee of hope, change and miracles.  No loss there.  Obama was assured of the Democrat vote based on two things.  One,  Detroit almost always vote Democrat and two, Governor Granholm. A week after the election, not only did the state of Michigan stay in the Democrat column, the auto industry made headlines.  GM and Ford are running out of money, time and hope.  It's time for a bailout of this industry too.    If  the industry is not fixed, the economy will suffer.  I've heard that somewhere, so it must be true, right? 
Having been a Michigander all my life,  there are clues in all of the events that tell a  bigger story that everyone is missing.   Michigan is the worst state of the Union when it comes to taxes, unemployment and government.  It is ranked number 50 out of 50, based on economic conditions.  This is also a blue state, which makes no sense because Governor "We'll blow you away,"  Granholm has taken a bad economy and made it one hundred times worse.  Exaggerating?  Nope.  The new state motto is "Will the last one to Leave Michigan, please  turn off the lights."  For years the Governor  has been going on foreign trips to encourage  business to come to Michigan to build and prosper.  I don't  know how great of a sell that can be when these countries have been witnessing American companies fleeing to countries who offer less regulation, less taxes and  wages for workers that do not hurt the bottom line.   So what do these news item together should have taught the nation?    Taxes, unions and Democrats are a lethal combination for the economy.  
The Michigan tax plan is taken right out of the Democrat's blueprint for governing.  Governor Granholm raised taxes at a time when it should have been lowered.  When the headlines screamed that the population of Michigan was 13 million less, due to the fact that people were forced to relocate for better jobs.   The brilliant Governor raised the taxes on the poor souls who couldn't leave Michigan even if they wanted.  The real estate market is so bad that it is not uncommon to drive down any suburban neighborhood with  two or three houses for sale on the same street.  Unemployment has risen due in part to the State government not supporting small businesses  and taxing them further.  What other taxes have gone up you ask?  Let's see,  sales tax, property tax, city taxes   and the list can go on.  In recent headlines,  Granholm has been mentioned as part of President-elect's economic team.  As any sane person would know, the woman has no clue on economic issues but she did help bring in the Union vote for Obama.  Which leads to the next point. 
Unions.  They are the "mafia" of the workforce.  They claim that they have an offer that you can not refuse, and literally, companies are at the mercy of their demands.   So are the employees.   In a union workshop, if you do not belong to the union by choice,  it is still required that you pay dues.  It is amazing to think that at one time Unions did actually have the interest of the common workers, and for awhile improved work conditions.  However, as everyone knows, too much of a good thing will go bad.  When the unions began demanding more benefits, fewer hours and better wages,  the productivity of the American worker went down.  If demands were not met,  a strike would be called and work would cease.  This worked so well in the factories, that soon everyone wanted to have unions.  Schools, government,  and hospitals.  The only place the unions did not penetrate were the small businesses.   These businesses didn't matter much to the unions in the beginning.  However, look at the domino effect here.  When areas such as schools, hospitals, airlines,  and building all started to feel the pinch of higher taxes.  The workers began to lose jobs.  The unions lost dues.  The small businesses were booming.  Time for the mafia of the workforce to make the rounds and start intimidating the business owners to allow the unions into their buildings.   If that doesn't work, use the money from  union dues towards the Democrat candidates in hopes that they will be elected.  As they are doing that, remind the employee that they are doing this on the employee's behalf.  The Unions will not only represent the workers, they will speak, act and think for the little guys and gals.  After all, they were fool enough to vote for a union, when they could not stand up for themselves.  Unions have always pushed their membership to vote they way they are told to vote.  It is another attempt to think, speak and act for little guy. Never mind that they are backstabbing the same people who pay their dues.  Is that why the Union thugs want to do away with secret balloting for unions?  Afraid of losing power?  Which leads to the final point, the Democrats.
Democrats buy into the mentality that anything can be fixed by throwing money at the problem.  If you don't have enough money, get more of it but never use your own money.  Taxpayer money  is much more efficient.   It is seldom a wonderful idea to watch spending, cut corners where need be and let the market fix itself.  That would mean giving up control.  Once a Democrat is in power,  it is impossible to get them out.  Need examples,  here they are:  Conyers, Levin, Kennedy, Clintons and on and on.   Power to the Democrats is like sugar to a baby.  Very addicting to the child.   To everyone else around the child,  it is a headache.  There is no way of controlling the child on a sugar buzz, you just have to wait it out.    Michigan has been waiting six long years, longer if you consider the leadership of  Levin and Conyers,  for the sugar buzz to end.  The state should have been a warning to the rest of  the nation when it came time for the election.   Democrats, taxes and unions do not mix.  President-elect Obama has all three elements in his administration, plus much more.   If you wanted to see how patriotic it is to be paying more taxes, look to Michigan.  If you want to see what happens when businesses are punished with taxes and regulations, look to Michigan.  If you want to see what the Unions have done to an industry that once was the pride of the Motor City, look to Michigan.   If you want to see where the American dream is dying, look to Michigan.  If you want to see how liberal propaganda can be hypnotic so that the voters will  listen to the same old  promises and forget that they were promised these things before, look to Michigan.   Michigan should  have taught the rest of the country to not follow this road.  However, Michigan did teach the Democrats to keep doing what they are doing.
