Hoyer wants to call last night's vote on Health care reform bipartisan.  Well,  here is the story of the one Republican who voted for it and the thirty-nine Democrats who voted against it.  If this is partisan vote,  it would seem that the Republicans who voted against the bill had more of a bipartisan showing than Hoyer would like to admit.  After all the Republicans were able to get thirty-eight more votes to agree with their point of view.   As a matter of fact to win the vote by only five tells Americans one thing:  the leadership in Congress is ignorant and arrogant.  Two characteristics that spell disaster for our country. 

To condense the 2,000 pages of legalize double-talk into terms that middle America can understand it only takes two words: More TAXES.  What the brilliant, using the term loosely here,  architects of this legislation refuse to understand is that Americans are not that easy to fool.     The Democrats refuse to tell the truth about what the bill actually details.  At one point Americans were promised that they can keep current insurance if you like it.  Now,  it's a definite move to making sure everyone get's onto the government's plan.  It will cut costs but yet we will cover more people.  In what universe does this math add up?  The leadership can never answer the question of where the money will come from to support this program.  They can't speak the truth because they know that no one wants to hear that they will ahve to pay more taxes.  Not to worry,  the government will be able to cut costs by deciding who will be eligible for treatments.   The old and the terminally ill will not have a voice.  They will be silenced.  Which will  result in a different, more horrifying  holocaust than Hitler's murderous plans.    For those who are dealing with elderly parents or handicapped children this is a nightmare.  

It's Halloween, perhaps the most scariest night of  the year.  This year the normal things that go bump in the night won't scare most trick or treaters After all,  when the most liberal administration in United States history has begun to reshape America brick by brick,  what could be scarier than that?  On a side note, let's pray nothing ever happens to Obama,  things will get scarier with a President Biden.  The thought is enough to send chills up and down one's spine.   Come to think of it,  it has been like a bad Halloween movie for Michiganders for the past eight years.  No, not due to Bush's incompetence,  rather  Granholm's  costume "Blond Barbie  Goes to Lansing pant suit" as Michigan Governor.   Enough about Michigan's incompetent Governor.  The real issue here is how to put a stake in all liberal's heart by putting a stop to the socialist programs that will ruin America.

Not to get giddy or over excited about the recent trends in polling, but it looks as though the conservative movement has finally caught some momentum.  The Tea Parties were successful in energizing the public with information on what could be done to stop the Administration for taking over the health care industries.  Talk radio and Fox News have never been more popular as they are now and the Internet is turning into a powerful engine to provide information directly to the people, bypassing the media, the White House and Congress.  The true losers of the Information Age are liberals and their agenda.  The winners are conservatives who longed for information that was factual, reliable and useful.   MSNBC, CNN and their cronies will never understand how their base is shrinking.   Viewers have found that they can no longer trust the news anchors of today,  they just don't make journalists like Walter Cronkite anymore.  (As a side note,  it can be debated that Cronkite was liberal.  However, it is fair to say that he kept his opinions out of the news reports to the point where viewers at least felt they could trust him.)   As stated earlier,   conservatives should not become giddy over this turn in American history.  It is much too early in the "game" to declare a victory.  This next year will be the test as to how strong the resolve is for Conservatives to win the battle. 

Looking at the slate of new bills, programs and taxes the liberals are proposing in Washington D.C. is mind boggling.  It is an amazing thing to watch the Democrats come up with new ways of taxing middle class citizens.  In every bill proposed, whether it deals with health care, cap and trade,  national security, or  climate control, there is a huge bill attached with the tax payer's name on it.   At a time when the economy is in the tank,  liberals are scrambling for ways of  increasing taxes to pay for their wonderful  everyone is equal in Obama eyes' legislation.  Not one of these programs will do anything to boost the economy.  Not one of them will give a laid off GM employee back their job.  Not one of them will make America a better place.  However, we will all be the poorer for them.   Don't lose sight of the goal:  Kick liberals out of Congress and get America back on the right track of financial success.   There will be several key elections to watch this Tuesday which may be the beginning of  sending the old guard packing.  Obama's team are worried, as they should be.

Win or lose on Tuesday,  conservatives should be on their toes.  With the scare that the White House is getting in Virginia, New Jersey and New York,  it is without a doubt that efforts will be doubled to pass legislation before the bigger elections in 2010.  The RNC had better begin to listen for conservative voices and follow them.  American politics has always been a two party system, and it will remain that way.  The only change that may be on the horizon,  is that the Republican party as it stands now, will either have to change their strategy to reflect conservative values or be pushed in with the Democrats while conservatives of the party reform the RNC into a new political group.  For proof of this,  look at the New York Congressional race with Doug Hoffman, a conservative who pushed out the RNC backed Scozzafava days before the election.    Michael Steele,  are you listening?  Are you watching?  Will you be bold enough to stand for conservative principals? 

The new mantra for the Conservative politicians and candidates should be 'CUT AND CREATE."   That is to say cut taxes and create opportunites for job growth.  It is as simple as two plus two equals four.  For liberals it is all about fuzzy math.  For conservatives it is all about what is the real outcome.  For example,  the administration must be drinking more than kool aid when they come out on Friday to say that all is well with the economy and to prove it, the Administration has saved 650,000 jobs.  Seriously,  with unemployment at 9.8 %, which equals to millions being out of work,  Obama wants voters to believe he has saved jobs.  For families who have lost their income,  it is doubtful that this news is comforting.  For those who have intelligence to read between the lines of this latest spin,  this is insulting.  Why hasn't anyone in the media asked the all important question: So you saved jobs.   What will you do besides extend unemployment benefits to get America working again?  Don't ask the government, they never have good ideas.   Novel idea:  cut taxes to businesses to spur job creation. 

 It's time to become aggressive against liberals and their agenda.  In 1994,  the Republicans stood up to Clinton and won.  Time to do it again,  with a different twist.  This time,  it is important to not only to win but dominate the political field.  Never surrender.   Never back down.  Most importantly, never ever let liberals win.

The Republican and Democrat leaders are being handed a heavy lesson these days from their constituents.  It has been awhile since there  has been a loud outcry from the public against the government.  Sure every once in a while there would be stories of protest but most Americans sat in their living rooms, turned on Dan Rather and watched what was going on in the world.  The news of the day was just that,  news.  As long as the economy was going along at a steady pace,  people had jobs and children were going to school to learn the basics of english, math and science,  all was well.  However,  things have changed drastically these days.  The news of  the day now hits home harder than before and people are beginning to wake up. It's quite a rude awakening, too. 

It seems that these days Americans are being hit on all sides.  Some understand what is going on as a vicious attack on the American way of life.  While others are going along with the President's agenda with a dumb down attitude.  It's okay that  the country is going to hell in a hand basket.  It's okay that Obama might be making the wrong  or bad decisions for our country.  He is just doing what he thinks is best.  That's what is most important.  Scary but its true some Americans actually think this way.  It can't be made up.   Listen to talk radio and sometimes the occasional left wing nut calls up to defend Obama.  This line of logic was just used last week on Sean Hannity's radio program. Conservatives must have been ready to drive off the road when hearing this load of propaganda. Which begs the question,  where are these left wingers getting their kool-aid?  Where ever it is,  it ought to be shut down before the whole country is brain dead. 

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".   

A couple of weeks ago,  the media in Detroit were filming people showing up at Cobo Hall to stand in line for assistance with their energy bills.  One woman gave a keen insight to why all these people showed up on a typical fall day in Detroit.  This is Obama money, you know the money he has in his stash and that's why we voted him into office.  Obviously the woman must have confused Obama with another politician,  William J "cold cash" Jefferson who actually had some money stashed in his freezer.  They must believe that all Democrats have freezers filled with cash and Obama is the one "nice" Democrat who is going to share.  They are right on one count.  It wouldn't be a surprise to know that Democrats are hiding their "cold cash" in many unique places.  After all there are a couple of tax evaders in the White House right now.  But, and here is the important point,  it is  doubtful that any one of the Democrats are willing to share their pile of dough.  They will stick their fingers into other people's wallet to help the needy. 

There can be no doubt as to why Obama won the Noble Prize now.  He has in so many words given his support to climate control and the global redistribution of wealth.  Like a good little lap dog of the United Nations,  our President,  Barack Hussein Obama is prepared to sign a treaty this December in Copenhagen which will silently give away America's soverency.  Why shouldn't he?  Too many people in America oppose him,  the world at least loves him and the next step is President of the World.  As he hears it from realiable sources,  the same ones who told him Chicago was "gold" for the Olympics, he is a shoe in for the job.  This is way too easy for Barry.  Hasn't even done a darn thing and yet getting all the accolades!

Lord Christopher Monckton's speech on October 14th details specifically how the climate control agenda has in it's sight to have communism rule over every country,  including America.  The alarming fact is that this being done under our noses and with such audacity that one would have to believe that Monckton is making the whole thing up.  He is not!   Looking at the agenda proposed,  there is no way of escaping the undeniable truth.  Obama and his communist idols are going to make the U.S. and the west pay for damaging the planet.  He will sign away our rights and render the Constitution useless.  This should not be surprising since he has always held disdain for the document and felt it didn't allow the government enough room to do more to it's citizen.

If these allegations are false.  Then the Obama Administration should set the record straight.  The sad fact is, they can't set the record straight.  For if they did, they would have to admit that Lord Monckton is right in his assessment.   The facts speak for themselves, since Obama has been in office his agenda has attempted to change America, for the worse.  Unemployment is up,  spending is up and foreclosures are up.  Yet, amazingly there are those who will defend the man to the ends of the earth.  Overlooking the obvious.   If no one stops Obama in December,  the lamp that the Statue of Liberty has held for the tired, the poor,  and the  huddled masses yearning to breathe free will be extinguished forever.  If Obama signs the treaty, he will commit treason.  Are there any leaders out there who is willing to call the President on this and demand his resignation?

      It is eye-opening to learn who the favorite political philosophers are on the left.  Anita Dunn, who is by no means a brilliant mind in her own right and is now the White House Communications Director,  calmly stated in a speech on June 5, of this year that her two favorite poltical philosophers were Mao Tse Tung and Mother Teresa.  Before even going down the road of what do these two historical figures have in common,  one has got to ask Ms. Dunn,  How did she ever come to the conclusion that Mother Teresa was a political philosopher?   Mother Teresa hated politics and her philosophy was religious not political.  Frankly, like all liberals ,  Ms. Dunn bends the truth to fit her own agenda and needs.   However,  that's not what is so distrubing about Ms. Dunn's statement.  What is disturbing is that without hesitation she admits to admiring a radical ideology of the far left.  One can assume that the only reason she used Mother Teresa's name and quote was to take the edge off of her admiration for a Chinese Dictator who killed 70,000 of his own people.  

Taking a brief look at Mao Tse Tung,  one has to wonder what is it that inspires the left so much?  Is it the fact that he took over China's government when so many were resisting his ascent to power?  Is it the fact that under his rule of law, The Great Leap,  a huge portion of the population of China died?  Or could it be he demonstrated how to blame others effectively for the mistakes of a dictator?   Actually,  it isn't any of these things that inspires them.  Chairman Mao sits along side of all the failed dictators such as Stalin, Lenin and Hitler.  The perfect guest list for a dinner party at a radical leftist's home  would be to bring back the old dictators for one night in order to sit at their knees and listen with awe on how they  come to power and stayed there.  Well, that is until the people of the country revolted against the communists ideal.  That's when the fun really started!  Kill as many of the rebels possible before going down yourself.  Ah,   the glory days.   Mao Tse Tung inspires the left because he makes them feel intellectually superior to the average "citizen" because the simple minded can not grasp or comprehend the power of socialism.  They would have made perfect henchmen for the likes of Chairman Mao, Stalin and Lenin.  Come to think of it,  they are perfect henchmen for the most socialist president the nation has ever known.  Their dreams are being fulfilled. 

Back to Ms. Dunn's favorite quote of Mao Tse Tung.  In her speech to the high school students,  she quoted the ambitious Chairman as saying, "I'll fight my wars.  You fight yours." This was at the point in China's history when Mao Tse Tung  was coming to power and preparing to win over control.  The odds were against him, but he fought his war and won.  How wonderful for China!  For twenty-five years the people of China suffered under his regime. No jobs.  No food.  No medical care.  Just the kind of place anyone would want to raise their family.  Yet, he did it his way.  He found a path that fit for him and high schoolers should learn that they too must pave their own way.  When asked about this quote,  Ms. Dunn said she was only joking when she used Chairman Mao words.  Weird.  The audience must not have gotten the joke, because not a single person laughed.  Yes, there were a few nervous chuckles when she mentioned that Mao Tse Tung and Mother Teresa are never quoted together. The joke ended there.  Her main point was that there is inspiration in fighting your own war.  That it is more important is winning for your own good instead of what is best for the country.  Push the socialist agenda until the citizens are beaten into submission.  This is what Tung did.  This is the liberal's dream.  We can only hope that the young minds in the audience were thinking,   "I will fight my war against Obama's socialist plan."  If they weren't and they bought this propaganda speech,  it is a sad sad day for America's future.

A brief comment on the Mother Teresa's quote, "Find your own Calcutta."  If Ms. Dunn had done any research on the topic she may have found the meaning behind Mother Teresa's words. Her mission was to take care of the sick and dying, and lost children of Calcutta, not inspire the world to find their own path.   Her words to the young girl were meant to remind her that she did not need to come to Calcutta,  just like every other rich or famous perosn does, in order to "show" how wonderful a human being she was. Mother Teresa's words were a stark reminder that it was better to  serve  humanity in another part of the world that is often forgotten.  Ms.  Dunn completely missed that lesson, but then again,  she was only using the name of Mother Teresa,  it is doubtful that she actually believed in anything Mother Teresa said or did. 

There are  many heroes that Anita Dunn could have chosen to quote.  Albert Einstein,  Abraham Lincoln or the resilient Helen Keller. These historic figures fought many personal battles that lead them to find greatness in themselves, which in turn,  made the world a better place.  That can not be said of Mao Tse Tung.  The fact that she chooses a dictator underscores the philosophy of  today's radical liberals, which they wish to hide.  They are not moderates,  they are not compromising and they are not giving up because they want total control.   The people who have surrounded the president have given Americans much to be concerned about.   How could one not worry about the judgement of the President when one radical after another keeps popping up next to him?  These are surely dark days for America. 

When talking about health issues and the quality of life it can be safely assumed that people do not like to  be threatened,  manipulated or forced into a corner.  Yet,  the Darling Democrats are doing just that this week to the American people.  We will have Healthcare Reform Period! No discussion.  No debates.  No doubts.  Americans will be threatened, manipulated and forced into liking a system that will drive up medical costs,  taxes and death rates.  Lovely thought isn't it? 

How does one begin a blog that will definitely be viewed as negative and depressing?  Perhaps to cushion the blow just a touch with the assurance that all is not lost in Michigan or in America.  There are signs that the citizens are waking up to smell the coffee but there is so much to do in order to take back our country and our way of life.  In the last blog,  Michigan was discussed as the model or prototype of a welfare state.  What can and will happen if Obama Hope passes through Washington.  The cynic could say that Governor Jennifer Granholm collaborated with the Democrats and volunteered Michigan to be the state where all the socialist experiments would be tried first before going National.  However, that would entail that they would have known eight years ago that Obama would be president.  Great conspiracy theory, if one is into that.  However, today's blog aims at finding solutions.  If Michigan can be save,  so can the rest of America.  This is an offer to the Republican party to use Michigan as the state that almost failed but found it's way back, better and stronger.  Will they take this offer?  If they don't, then there must be other leaders out there who will be willing to step up to the plate and help bring life back into a dying state. 

Michigan is a wonderful place to live.  The seasons are beautiful,  even winter can be beautiful around Christmas time.  The lakes are great, even the little ones that can be found in the out of the way places.  It is the heart and soul of America.  The Native American believe that when the Great Creator made the world, he left his hand print behind.  Thus, that is how Michigan was formed. With all the beauty that this state has to offer,  there must be some truth to that legend.   Now. the days have gotten harder and Michiganders are fleeing not for the winter months, but forever.  Those left behind are beginning to wonder if it is too late to follow the masses who have already left.   For all intents and purposes,  they are stuck.  Either hibernate during this economic fall out and see what comes out of Detroit after this recession or work harder to  turn things around in Michigan.  At this point, it is hard to know which is better to do, because honestly both of these options require hope.  Hope doesn't live here anymore. 

In 1964 a remarkable man was given the Nobel Peace Prize.  It was an honor that he never dreamed of getting, yet he fully deserved the prestigious award.  He called upon his countrymen to look at themselves and see that the land that they so dearly loved did not always live up to it's promises.  This man challenged the system which kept the blinders on all people,   creating division, mistrust and ignorance.  He changed a nation.  He changed the world.  He changed the dream for humanity.  Simply put,  he brought people together to see that deep down we are all the same.  Every human being wants the best for his family,  wants the best opportunities to succeed and wants to see the best in each other.  Martin Luther King Jr. was the picture of grace, peace and unity.  He was a worthy recipient of the prize.  

It's close to  nine months since Obama has taken office, and what a difference it has been since the Bush years.  They are so complete opposite that it seems like black and white, or night and day.  Unfortunately,  it would be considered racist to say black and white, perhaps even night and day is racist.  Who knows?  The rules for what is the wrong thing to say and do are ever changing with the liberals.   Let's face it, before the election it was considered a crime to mention Barry's middle name.  Now, school children are sing his praises:  Mm Mm Mm,  Barack Hussein Obama.  Catchy tune, huh?   Here is a count down of nine important ways that America has drastically changed since the election of Obama.  In light of recent trends that this column does not want to appear racist,  it is similar to comparing the differences between cats and dogs.
