America is More Conservative Now

For the first time in the Obama presidency - according to a Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll conducted Oct. 22-25, fifty-two percent say the country is on the wrong track compared to 36 percent who say it is headed in the right direction.
----------------------------------------------------------
As reported by the UK Telegraph, this week’s striking Gallup poll on political ideology is further confirmation that the United States is in essence a conservative nation, which has ironically become even more conservative under Barack Obama. According to Gallup, 40 percent of Americans describe their political views as conservative, 36 percent as moderate and 20 percent as liberal. This is the first time conservatives have outnumbered moderates in America since 2004.

"I'm going to have all the negotiations around a big table. We'll have the negotiations televised on C-SPAN, so that people can see who is making arguments on behalf of their constituents and who are making arguments on behalf of the drug companies or the insurance companies."

— Barack Obama, August, 2008

CBS's "60 Minutes" ran a not-to-be-missed expose of something that the Center for Health Transformation has been warning about for months: The unbelievable amount of fraud taxpayers are footing the bill for in the Medicare and Medicaid programs. And now, if the Democrats have their way, the government will be giving even more of our money to those who defraud.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And isn't this a twisted logic? Nancy Pelosi, when asked about the increase in taxes that will result from the loss of the "Bush" tax cuts upon their expiration date, stated that it will not be a tax increase, "it is the elimination of a tax decrease that was there". So - that won't result in a tax increase, Ms. Pelosi? Just asking.....

Just as more evidence is being presented that William Ayers, not Barack Obama, is most likely the author of Dreams From My Father, the Obama hand picked PResident of the National Endowment for the Arts has declared Obama to be the most powerful writer since Julius Caesar, and the only President since Teddy Roosevelt to actually write his own books. The jury is out, I believe.

Thomas Sowell, a premier writer and thinker of our times (who happens to be black), and one of my personal favorites, has written an article titled "Dismantling of America" He ends with these words: "Nothing so epitomizes President Obama's own contempt for American values and traditions like trying to ram two bills through Congress in his first year-- each bill more than a thousand pages long-- too fast for either of them to be read, much less discussed. That he succeeded only the first time says that some people are starting to wake up. Whether enough people will wake up in time to keep America from being dismantled, piece by piece, is another question-- and the biggest question for this generation".

Government and Gardasil

It's getting plain scary! Here's a look at just one government-pushed health care plan and how it has worked:

Regarding the government push (and consequent propping up of sales to Merck) to vaccinate our girls against HPV to keep them safer while having sex [ is that what we want?], it has been reported by Merck's own doctor that "To date, 15,037 girls have officially reported adverse side effects from Gardasil to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). These adverse effects include Guilliane Barre, lupus, seizures, paralysis, blood clots, brain inflammation and many others. The CDC acknowledges that there have been 44 reported deaths."

Merck's Dr. Harper has stated that a girl is more likely to die from an adverse reaction to Gardasil than from cervical cancer.
One thing we know about Gardasil is that each three-dose treatment costs $360, which has helped Merck a lot.
26 million vaccinations after its debut, Gardasil will have no effect on the rate of cervical cancer in the U.S. HPV, the infection that Gardasil can prevent, is rare, usually heals itself, and testing and treatment in the U.S. are very effective in keeping cervical cancer a rare event.

From DKTV: Transcript: From Barack Obama: "Now, to the non-Democrats who may be watching today -– (laughter) -– I want everybody to know we believe in a strong and loyal opposition. I believe in a two-party system where ideas are tested and assumptions are challenged — because that’s how we can move this country forward. But what I reject is when some folks decide to sit on the sidelines and root for failure on health care or on energy or on our economy. (Applause.) What I reject is when some folks say we should go back to the past policies when it was those very same policies that got us into this mess in the first place. (Applause.)" "Another way of putting it is when, you know, I’m busy and Nancy’s busy with our mop cleaning up somebody else’s mess –- we don’t want somebody sitting back saying, you’re not holding the mop the right way. (Applause.) Why don’t you grab a mop, why don’t you help clean up. (Applause.) You’re not mopping fast enough. (Laughter.) That’s a socialist mop. (Laughter and applause.) Grab a mop –- let’s get to work." [ The disingenuousness and duplicity of this man and this speech boggles my mind..... We really can't believe a thing he says...... Just as one for instance, if he believe in a strong and loyal opposition where ideas are tested and assumptions are challenged, just why is he trying to destroy Fox News? And just when will he be made to take responsibility for all his own actions?]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At the Corespondents Dinner: Good evening, everybody. (Applause.) I would like to welcome you all to the 10-day anniversary of my first 100 days. (Laughter.) I am Barack Obama. Most of you covered me. All of you voted for me. (Laughter and applause.) Apologies to the Fox table." [And so it goes]

Pay Czar and Opinionated Democrats

Deborah Soloman of the Wall St. Journal writes:
The U.S. pay czar will slash compensation for the 25 highest-paid employees at seven firms receiving large sums of government aid and demand a host of corporate-governance changes at those firms, according to people familiar with the matter. Kenneth Feinberg, the Treasury Department's special master for compensation, will lower total compensation for 175 employees by an average of 50%, these people said. As expected, the biggest cut will be to salaries, which will drop 90% on average. But while the overall levels will fall, some executives will still walk away with large paychecks. For instance, several Bank of America Corp. employees will still receive compensation totaling millions of dollars. At the same time, Mr. Feinberg will demand a series of corporate-governance changes at the firms, including splitting the positions of chairman and chief executive officer; requiring boards of directors to create a committee to assess risk, and eliminating staggered boards.

Some of the toughest pay restrictions will come at the financial-products unit of American International Group Inc., which has been blamed for the firm's near-collapse. No employee within that unit will receive compensation of more than $200,000, people familiar with the matter said.

The companies under Mr. Feinberg's authority are AIG, Bank of America, Citigroup, General Motors Co., GMAC Inc., Chrysler Group LLC and Chrysler Financial.

For several weeks, Mr. Geithner himself was making decisions such as whether a certain employee could collect a pension payment.

The White House has attempted to further prevent Fox News' access to the White House by declaring that of the five networks who actually pay for press conferences, only four of them were to be allowed to interview Executive Pay Czar Ken Feinberg. Fox News was prohibited. In a move to make all America proud, and also to keep themselves from being Obama's next target, the other four networks said that either all five networks would have the interview, or there would be no interview! The White House caved....

"Democrats are an opinionated bunch. You know, the other side, they just kinda sometimes do what they're told. Democrats, y'all thinkin' for yourselves." Barack Hussein Obama

I feel personally offended by this, as I, as well as all good Tea Partyers, do think for myself. I was one of the first to write to the snitch line of Obama to turn in a "fishy" statement on the health care bill - Barack Hussein Obama's descriptions of the bill. I haven't heard back from him as yet.

“What we’re going to do is we’re going to be pragmatic instead of ideological. We are going to try to bring people together rather than push them apart. We are going to make sure that we listen to other people’s ideas.”

-Obama

DON'T WE HAVE A CONSTITUTION THAT WAS WRITTEN TO PREVENT TYRANNY BY OUR GOVERNMENT? This action sets up future controls on all American businesses and boards, already being discussed by some.

Recent analysis by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office clearly demonstrates the incredible fiscal irresponsibility being exhibited by this Congress. According to their studies, the federal government ran a $1.4 trillion deficit through the first 11 months of FY 2009 and the national debt now stands at $11.77 trillion, a $3.1 trillion or 35.8% increase since Democrats took control of Congress in 2007. To get an indication of how dramatically this administration has changed our government’s spending habits; take a look below at the surplus/deficit figures over the period 2001-2010.

Here's an interesting quote from Ron Bloom, Obama's Car Czar: “Generally speaking we get the joke. We know that the free market is nonsense. We know that the whole point is to game the system, to beat the market, or at least find someone who will pay you a lot of money because they’re convinced that there is a free lunch. We know this is largely about power, that it’s an adults only, no limit game. We kind of agree with Mao that political power comes largely from the barrel of a gun. And we get it that if you want a friend, you should get a dog.”
