NOW WE HAVE A DISCTINCTION BETWEEN THE TWO PRESIDENTIAL PARTY'S

I have got to admit, Mitt Romney did the unforseen; he has decided on a REAL Conservative, and it has to have the establishment Repubs in a tizzy.

Paul Ryan will bring with him, the Tea Party; or what is otherwise known as the New Republican Party....or as we prefer to call them.............CONSERVATIVES!!

I believe, after this election and the winning of Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan, the "party" will change its name, and call themselves, Conservatives, rather than Republicans, pretty much just as the Democrat Party call themselves Progressives. So, from January 2013 onward, we will have a whole new outlook on politicians and the party's they belong to: Progressives and Conservatives; and there will be absolute distinctions.

I also believe, after this next election, beginning in 2013, our country will take a decidedly conservative turn, and there will be dancing in the streets.

Conservatives only want to return to the intent of the founders and allow each and every citizen of America to reach their highest goals and potential. Conservatives want to get government out of the way so each and every person can excel to limits restricted only by themselves. Conservatives do not want to put any restrictions on what each individual is capable of achieving. They only want each individual to not expect the government to get in their way.

Choosing Paul Ryan means Romney will lead this country into a new era of prosperity for everyone. Choosing Paul Ryan means Romney, as a leader, knows that this country can no longer act politically; but instead must respect each American as a person who wants the most out of the life, as is possible for him to achieve. Choosing Paul Ryan means the establishment Repubs will now fizzle out of their power and persuasion over this new political party. The establishment only differs on issues between the Progressives as to how to get to the same place: the new Conservative party differs on "who do these politicians think they are"?

I am stoked!! and I sense the beginning of an America that we old folks once knew; an America whose citizens are proud of; an America immigrants across the world are trying to get to; an America that once again will be the example for the world's powers to follow; an America that will acknowledge God and His sovereignty; an America that will lead the world into a prosperity that each citizen will gauge and determine for themselves; limited only by our own restrictions.

Believe me, this appointment of Paul Ryan as Vice President is going to send shivers up and down the spines of every "Democrat politician" because with him and the views he is convicted and persuaded to follow will expose the other party to be a Marxist/Socialist/Communist party that seeks to establish a Utopia that, without God, is impossible to achieve because there is sin and depraved people in this world that want to do harm to so many people.

And I do believe that this time next year, America will be well on its way to solving the problems the progressives have imposed on our society over the last 60 years. You will see a new outlook and a new hope emanating from everyone. Jobs will be plentiful, hope will be seen on the faces of everyone and the feeling that once again America is about to lead the world in prosperity and individual freedom.

Sure, we have some awful problems that must be dealt with; Iran and North Korea, and as a nation we will deal with them, but underpinning those problems will be the sense that a new day is dawning, and this country will once again be the greatest country in the world.

You think my hyperbole is excessive?  I just have this sense that these two men, will surround themselves with people that want to and will make a difference. We may even see a new tax system like the flat tax. We may see the opportunity for Americans to develop their own retirement program, based on the ability to invest their hard earned money they way they want to.

I can't help it......I AM STOKED!!

BAN THIS, BAN THAT SO ONLY THE BAD GUYS ARE ARMED

So let's use the logic of the left: If a madman kills several people with a rifle, we should ban the sales of those rifles.

Do you know 250,000 people die in hospitals every year because of mistreatment or neglect? And did you know that 40,000 people die in car accidents each and every year? And recently, a woman bled todeath after having abortion in a Chicago Planned Parenthood facility?

So, using the logic of the left, let's ban hospitals; or should we ban doctors, or should we ban the pharmaceutical companies that promote and supply the drugs and medicines used in these hospitals? And how about those automobile manufacturers; should we ban the production of the automobile, or should we ban the highways they drive, since no one would get killed if there were no highways, or is it the police we should ban because they didn't prevent the accident? And, I have to ask, should we ban Chicago because a woman bled to death after having an abortion in there? Or should the Mayor be forced to step down because he did nothing to prevent her death, or the "collateral damage" to civilians when gangs do their thing?

Heck, the Mayor of that fine city has pleaded with the street gangs to apply their "moral bad guy code" and leave the children alone; better yet, take your killing into the alleys so there is no collateral damage.

These lefties just make you cringe. They espouse moral judgement on all of society because of the act of one deranged individual, and want to take away the liberties, freedoms and individual rights given to us by the Constitution, while promoting the killing of innocent babies through abortions; ignoring the accumulative deaths of hospital patients, encourage gang killings in a less public place, and bailout auto industries with tax payers money, while tens of thousands of people get killed with these machines. It makes you wonder where their morality really is, or do they have any?

I'm inclined to believe Progressive are "knee-jerk" reactors who glom on to an incident just to further their demented agenda; they want to turn America into another 3rd. world country.

100 years ago, you could go to the local drug store and purchase any number of drugs including heroine. 50 years ago, it was almost impossible to see a deer in the woods in Mississippi; today they are over-running the land and the government in its wisdom first limits a hunters kill, then has an open season to help reduce the population. And today, ticks are a health problem, yes deer ticks can cause you terrific health problems and even kill you, all because those lefties want to manage every aspect of your life.

If a person intentionally kills someone, execute him or her; that's all there is to it. These people are not fit to live in a civil society. By their actions, they have made it clear they do not belong with the living, anymore.
There is no need to try to figure it out. They have violated societies norms, and must be removed, permanently. It is not useful to cause the rest of us to pay to keep this person alive, like Manson, until they die naturally in prison. Perhaps if someone had a carry permit when any of these deranged people did their deed, that person might be able to put an end to the senseless killing, by shooting the perpetrator. DONE. No court, no trial, just a person defending himself and others.

That makes more sense than to try to stop civilians from defending themselves against these goof balls, by making law that restricts every American from defending himself. I do not want to be left unarmed if ever something likes this would happen in my presence. Currently, I do have a permit and I do carry. I used to be in the Marine Corp and know how to use the weapon; and will!

"YOU DIDN'T SUCEED BY YOURSELF..."

On the surface, this sort of statement would anger a lot of people; in fact it did, from radio talk show hosts to commentators to businessmen who were "offended" by these remarks. First, I don't think I can accurately tell you what it means when a person says they were offended. Why? Politically Correct speaking lets you "feel" offended, but in reality, to be offended, one would have to receive an offense, right? The word offend includes definitions like, to commit a sin or crime, to create resentment, to hurt the feelings of. So for someone to say they were offended by what the President said seems to me you give him the right to hurt your feelings about something he has no control over. Anyway, damn your feelings, we are dealing with truth and facts and the President has it right; YOU HAD HELP.

What you just said offends me, you say. Ha! Why? Is what the Prez said, truthful? If it is, then you have a right to be offended, because he just hurt your feelings about the reason why you are successful, and you don't want to admit it, and you don't want others to know.

I don't claim this applies to every business man, but I do have to admit, politicians, lobbyists and cash can do a lot to make and change laws to favor one person or one business over another and this sort of thing happens all the time. It is the way of Washington. It is how things get done in Washington.

Jeff Imelt got the current administration to outlaw incandescent light bulbs in favor of those crazy useless curly Q things which in time will cost us a fortune to get rid of because they have mercury in them and there are already laws on the books about the proper ways to handle bulbs containing mercury. So it is true, he could not have done this without help from the government. And what about you farmers that demand subsidies so you can always have a profit. It is the government, with taxpayers money, that gives you those subsidies. And what about when you want to move to one city or another state, don't you get "concessions" that are actually funds provided by taxing citizens? Isn't that a case of not being successful by yourself?

Sure, the rail system and the telegraph poles were endeavors by private business to enable commerce and transportation to more easily flow from one state to another. But infrastructure always precedes economic expansion, and infrastructure as a purpose of government, has its preferences, depending on if it will benefit a re-election.

I'm not saying I agree with the premise of the President as he has stated his position, but facts are facts: our 2 party system has been broken for a long time, and this election is no different. Republicans have the "establishment" candidate which means if he wins, legislation and lobbying will go in favor of the repubs. If Obama wins again, things will stay the same as they have for the last 4 years and our tax dollars will instead go to "clean energy" people who have contributed to HIS election; government helps those who helps elections.

Sure, we common people get jobs, get a better way of life, get vacations and 2 cars etc. BUT, that is not the issue here. The issue is clear; businesses succeed only with the help of government. Actually it could be said another way; few businesses can succeed without the help of government; and some businesses are closed down because of government intervening for a competing business (does Fender Guitar come to mind)? Or because the "Green" people are concerned about the snail darter.

Obama is going to reiterate this position, and his opponent can do little to rebut it, because Romney will "promote" those things his supporters want, if he gets elected, and Obama will continue to support those ideas of his supporters if he gets re-elected; government WILL pick winners and losers, and many businesses will succeed or fail, no matter who becomes the President. It has been happening for decades and will continue to happen until the American people realize they are being played by both parties.

Laws and taxes are used to "help" those who helped politicians in their respective elections, and this is true into each and every state election. In Tennessee the last Governor gave $1 billion dollars to help an automotive plant relocate from a failed business in Pennsylvania, while the state has one of the highest sales taxes in the nation. And a lot of the jobs being made by the automotive industry will go to a competing state, at no cost to them....picking the winners.

For starters, the XVII Amendment has to be repealed so the state can once again, be the ones who send representatives to Washington, not a popular vote. And the XII Amendment has to be repealed so Americans can get a proper representation in Washington, not let the Federal Government be run by 60 Senators and the President and VP in one party.  It is better for this nation if the President and the Vice President actually were from opposing parties.

As a foot note; "reaching across the aisle" is absurd. When citizens elect a politician to represent them, there had better be opposition, otherwise the election process is a waste of time and our votes truly do not count.

CONSERVATIVE: IT IS NOT A DIRTY WORD

Kudos to Michelle Malkin. For the first time, as far as I can remember, she has finally said what has to be said.

Too often Conservatives "temper" their words, so as not to offend others. Bull Crap with that. Come on guys, we all feel the same...speak what is on your heart. This Politically Correct speak stuff has only stifled the Conservatives from saying what is on their minds. Heck, just try to listen to Bohner speak: doesn't it nauseate you trying to understand what he is saying? IT's all PC and I for one, am fed up with it, and I suspect so is Michelle Malkin.

She has never had a problem telling it like it is but this last interview seems to just finally rub her the wrong way and caused  her to SPEAK OUT!   "JUST A BLOGGER"  “There are real reporters who won‘t even say the name ’Brett Kimberlin’ out of fear…The kind of harassment that I’ve gone through over the past twenty years pales in comparison to what these individuals bloggers [have gone through]…and we owe them so much for standing up, for telling the truth.  Thank them, get their backs.”
“A lot of progressives…always ask me, ‘Why are you so mad?’  Why the hell shouldn’t I be mad?  You’re trying to flush our country down the toilet!  I‘m not going to tell you that you’re a nice person.  And I think we need more people in Washington…not to concede that these people are ‘nice’ people.”...that's Michelle Malkin at her best, and the rest of us should stop worrying about offending someone.

The Progressives want nothing more than to stifle us, and we acquiesce by "choosing" our words. It is time to tell it like it is.

Scott Walker has stood his ground and won a recall vote that will go down in history, no matter who writes it, as the first governor EVER to survive a recall vote, and he won it with a greater margin than he did in his first election as governor.

Michelle and Scott should be enough for the rest of us to realize that conservative is not a dirty word and conservatives are truly the only ones that can put this country back on track. Oh sure, that also means voting out of office people like McCain, Hatch, and the rest of those dinosaurs that have worked so hard to fill their own pockets with our money.

It used to be patriotic to run for office, serve the nation and return to a citizens life, knowing what you did, was make America a stronger nation......but there are soooooo many of those dinosaurs that need to be shown how to go back home.

Do you realize, those dinosaurs are the one that decided they need a retirement package which include medical coverage, and for "serving" for only 12 years; it is NOT Constitutional for these, long in the tooth "politicians" to live off of our taxes.

Look I had better stop. I'll get more verbal than Michelle, and my choice of words are not "sensitive" enough for print.

Conservatism is a lot like Protestantism: others define it. Let this be the last word on the subject: Conservative means we are proud of this Country; we say M'am, thank you, and sorry, but DO NOT TREAD ON ME. Progessives are NOT patriotic, they border on Socialism/Marism/Communism. Conservatism found this nation and it will take Conservatives to restore her place in this world. We are not a Nation to cower to the enemy, and the words of Progressives make them enemies to us. Fight, I say, fight each and everyone of you for the things you know are right and natural, and put an end to the political speak and the progressive speak that is meant to destroy this great country of ours. STAND! cower no more.

A SCANDAL IS A SCANDAL

Man O man, with all that is going on around President Obama, you would think he would be willing to admit he has a good chance of not getting re-elected. I think Bill Clinton believes that it's possible for Obama to lose in the general election; that would explain why Bill keeps saying opposing things to the Obama administration, like Romney had a sterling career as a business man.

So, is Bill trying to float an idea to the rest of the party and the Democratic voters in America? Is Bill paving the way for a Hillary nomination at the Democratic convention? Wouldn't that be great for Hillary; she wouldn't even have to oppose Obama during a primary, and not have all the negatives to overcome that get bantered about during the primaries, yet have the finances built up in the Democratic party for the Presidential race. It's like a win-win for her. AND Democratic voters LOVE Bill.

Obama has to put up with the "Fast and Furious" thing and now the leaks of secrets that appear to have come from higher-up since one of the leaks contends that Obama himself "picks out" the people he wants the military to assassinate.

The Department of Justice has appointed 2 lawyers to investigate the leaks, although the investigators report back to Holder, the man in charge of a department from which the leaks originated, it can be even more messy since the politicians, both Democrat and Republican, want this investigation to reveal the leaker and neither party will be content with a scape goat. Perhaps Holder is hoping the investigation will last long past the Presidential election, so he won't have to worry about being forced to resign or face any sort of prosecution from the Obama administration, and he can just resign into oblivion sometime in the next Obama administration. But that can be a very fatal gamble. Suppose the Republicans do win the Senate and hold the House of Representatives? Can you imagine how swiftly these investigations will be wrapped up and prosecution be handed out? Let's face it, facts are facts and Republicans hate leaks and embarrassment. Surely they will want to blame someone for the allegations being made. It'll start the new year off good, for them.

The recall election of republican Scott Walker is a spear in the hearts of the Democrats. It is the first time ever, that a governor won an election in a recall vote, and it happened in a state where public unions began, and it is a very Democratic state. The whole thing looks like a real boondoggle for Obama, the Democratic party and unions in general. It will cause the other states to believe they too can put a stop to the gustapo tactics of public unions demanding more and more from tax payers, then support the Democrats. Heck, the Democrat politicians in some California cities already got the idea, and are reducing benefits to its public employees. And I believe this is just the beginning. This illegitimate marriage between the public employee unions and the Democratic party is one of the reasons for the financial troubles most states have and it is one of the reasons for the financial mess in the Nation. Republicans nation wide, will use this as a referendum to put an end to power of public unions, state by state. And there is hope, the next President will put an end to  unions for the federal employees.

But this is only the first step. Someone has to step up and put an end to a retirement and healthcare package to any and all of our representatives. They are supposed to be serving the nation, not their own interests, and their demands are a very large portion of the costs of the federal government. In 2010, the government paid  $69.2 Billion dollars to 2.5 million people, and deposited $2.5 Billion dollars into a deferred retirement pension for those same people. The cost of retirement for 2010 was a whopping $275 Billion dollars to dozens of over-lapping departments and agencies.

Private pensions have $2.3 trillion in stocks, bonds, real estate and other assets. Local and state governments have $3 trillion in retirement funds....THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT DOES NOT HAVE A SINGLE PENNY IN RETIREMENT FUNDS. Last year, $107 billion dollars were added to the retirement promises of the federal government, but like Social Security, no money has been set aside or invested for the employees this retirement is intended for. Each year, those costs come out of the general budget. Last year the government paid $268 Billion Dollars in pension and health benefits to 10 million former civil servants, military and their dependents and another $7 Billion was deposited in tax deferred accounts for current workers. Last year the federal government committed more money to the 10 million former public servants than the $690 Billion it paid out to the 54 million Social Security recipients. PEOPLE, our country cannot sustain these unfunded promises. These are paid through taxation...an expense not listed in the Constitution as a legitimate expense for the Nation. Do you see those numbers?! It means the federal government HAS to tax the American worker enough money just to pay for over $1 trillion dollars for retirement each year (and each year the number of employees goes up and the cost of living goes up).

I hope the Scott Walker re-election puts these ideas front and center for all Americans. Think of it, tax payers owe $1 trillion dollars even before considering border protection, illegal immigration protection, and the general operation of this bloated government. It has to stop! Everyone is entitled to their own version of pension and they should provide for that version, no one else. Europe is a shadow of what will happen to the USA if we don't put a stop to this cancer and tell people they are responsible for their own lives, not other tax payers, and that includes politicians who have a better retirement package than anyone else. Who ever gave them the idea that they can retire at our expense if they would work just 12 years? Think of it: how long will each politician collect "retirement"? It just makes me so mad.

Obama has his problems, and it is more than the leaks of government secrets. The two of these issues are scandals that HAVE to be addressed. Coverup is no longer an option. Our Nation is imploding and these two issues are just the tip of the iceberg. I don't think Obama has any idea of how to settle these issues. It will take a person of intestinal fortitude, and a working knowledge of how to handle money.
