JUST THE BEGINNING OF ELECTION YEAR LIES FROM THE LEFT

This is a tactic we are seeing from the Democrats because it's election year.  Recycling old news.  Since Newt Gingrich has a chance at winning the Republican nomination, the Democrats are bringing up his past marital troubles.  Interestingly enough, that disqualifies Gingrich from being President, but not Bill Clinton.  One more prime example of the left wingnuts' double standard.  Excuse me, since I said something negative about a Democrat, albeit the truth, that's "hate speech."  What the Democrats are doing, "free speech".  Okay, I have it straight now.

Anyway, REPRESENTATIVE DEBBIE WASSERMAN SCHULTZ (her Facebook page HERE), chairman of the DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE, is recycling old accusations.  Representative Schultz, on January 11, 2012, blamed the Tea Party movement for the shooting of Representative Gabrielle Giffords last year by nut-job Jared Lee Loughner last year.  Apparently she turned a blind eye, as the left routinely does, to the facts about Loughner that came out later.  He has no political affiliation whatsoever.  His best friend Zach Osler, said, "(Loughner) did not watch TV; he disliked the news; he didn't listen to political radio; he didn't take sides; he wasn't on the Left; he wasn't on the Right." (SOURCE: I know Wikipedia can be a flawed source, but this entry is well source and footnoted.  That's why I used it this time).  Loughner is an atheist.  Loughner's list of favorite books ranged from Mein Kampf to the Communist Manifesto.  Loughner is drawn to unorthodox political ideologies, but due to his mental problems, is not able to "reasonably sustain any of them" (SOURCE).  Loughner is a diagnosed schizophrenic (SOURCE).

Following is a video so you can hear for yourself what she said:





There's a couple of things to remember here.  The majority of the "lack of civility" she refers to have actually been liberals attending town hall meetings and Tea Party events, posing as Tea Party members.  I have posted several times in this blog documenting these leftist tactics. 

If we want to talk about a "lack of civility", let's talk about the Occupy movement and compare it with the Tea Party.  The number of Occupy arrests as of October 31, 2011 according to the DAILY KOS was approaching 3,000.  Others claim as many 5,535 as of December 12, 2011 (SOURCE).  There have been many incidents of vandalism, thefts, sexual assaults, you name it.  But, it seems all of that is OK.  Tea Party arrests? Can't find any.  
I don't think, though, you will hear Representative Wasserman-Schultz or any other leftists making such comparisons.  As we get closer to this fall's Presidential election, look for the attacks from the left to get much uglier and dirtier.

EVER WONDER?





A friend of mine sent me this, and I thought it was very good and right on point.

Now it is our turn to bring "CHANGE" to Washington!!!




The 545 People Responsible For All Of U.S. Woes
Author Unknown
Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them. Have you ever wondered why, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, we have deficits? Have you ever wondered why, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, we have inflation and high taxes?
You and I don't propose a federal budget. The president does. You and I don't have the Constitutional authority to vote on appropriations. The House of Representatives does. You and I don't write the tax code. Congress does. You and I don't set fiscal policy. Congress does. You and I don't control monetary policy. The Federal Reserve Bank does.One hundred senators, 435 congressmen, one president and nine Supreme Court justices - 545 human beings out of the 300 million - are directly, legally, morally and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague this country.
I excluded the members of the Federal Reserve Board because that problem was created by the Congress. In 1913, Congress delegated its Constitutional duty to provide a sound currency to a federally chartered but private central bank. I excluded all but the special interests and lobbyists for a sound reason. They have no legal authority. They have no ability to coerce a senator, a congressman or a president to do one cotton-picking thing. I don't care if they offer a politician $1 million dollars in cash. The politician has the power to accept or reject it.No matter what the lobbyist promises, it is the legislation's responsibility to determine how he votes.
A CONFIDENCE CONSPIRACY
Don't you see how the con game that is played on the people by the politicians? Those 545 human beings spend much of their energy convincing you that what they did is not their fault. They cooperate in this common con regardless of party.The president can only propose a budget. He cannot force the Congress to accept it.
The Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land, gives sole responsibility to the House of Representatives for originating appropriations and taxes. Nancy Pelosi is the speaker of the House. She is the leader of the majority party. She and her fellow Democrats, not the president, can approve any budget they want. If the president vetos it, they can pass it over his veto. Sadly she has added to those deficits as well as our new President and Speaker Pelosi wrote most of these insane spending Bills with no regard to the cost to tax payers . So to speak, we have no hen guarding the American Tax Payers Chicken Coop and are as equally volatile hens as those in the age old Hen House.
REPLACE SCOUNDRELS
It seems inconceivable to me that a nation of 300 million cannot replace 545 people who stand convicted -- by present facts - of incompetence and irresponsibility. I can't think of a single domestic problem, from an unfair tax code to defense overruns, that is not traceable directly to those 545 people. When you fully grasp the plain truth that 545 people exercise power of the federal government, then it must follow that what exists is what they want to exist.
If the tax code is unfair, it's because they want it unfair. If the budget is in the red, it's because they want it in the red. If the Marines are in Iraq , it's because they want them in Iraq . There are no insoluble government problems.
Do not let these 545 people shift the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and whose jobs they can abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and advice they can reject; to regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate and from whom they can take it. Above all, do not let them con you into the belief that there exist disembodied mystical forces like "the economy," "inflation" or "politics" that prevent them from doing what they take an oath to do.
Those 545 people and they alone are responsible. They and they alone have the power. They and they alone should be held accountable by the people who are their bosses - provided they have the gumption to manage their own employees. The next time you hear a politician say Exxon is "gouging" the public with a net profit of 8.2 % (in 2008) ,very low by any Business standards since computer software companies average 21-34 % and Google in 2007 made 512 %, remind your Senators and Congressman the Federal Government does not help Exxon at all and actually causes their cost to go up with countless regulations and makes "triple " as much profit as Exxon does for doing nothing. Remind them it is Congress that is ''gouging " the Tax Payers and the General Public .
YOU and I are the ONLY ones who can bring REAL change to Washington. As Congressional elections come up, if We The People don't stand up and vote a lot of these people out and send a message, then the Washington System will never change. Vote them out, and e-mail or send a letter letting them know why you're voting against them.
Even though it's not "election season" just yet, I'll go ahead and say it: VOTE. Vote every chance you get - locally, the State level, and Federal level. It's way past time we got rid of the corrupt Washington System and lying politicians.

A "BLOG OF NOTE"


The title of my post today is actually a gross understatement, because the blog I'm referring to is so much more than a "blog of note". I ran across this in my Google alerts and I'm glad I did. This is a blog written by the father of Fireman Gary Swenchonis, Jr. TERRORISM: POLITICIANS AND VICTIMS. Fireman Swenchonis was one of the sailors murdered on the U.S.S. Cole by terrorists. His latest post explains why he and his family did not attend the meeting with President Obama which was because President Obama's mind was already made up.
As Mr. Swenchonis said, justice has taken a back seat to politics, and like Mr. Swenchonis, I am really sick and tired of the support terrorists have here in America. The title of the blog above is a clickable link. Please visit and show your support for this family, and take the time to read the information on his sidebars.
Mr. Swenchonis, in an open statement to President Obama on his sidebar, summed it up very well:
"President Obama: Do you know how much it hurts to see you drop the charges against our sons killers? First the Dictator of Yemen freed our son's killers. And now you sir. We had hoped for some justice here in our own country. But now it appears that politics are more important than justice and the truth. "
