Going Postal Liberal-Style

Apparently, some unAmerican piece of garbage complained about a six year-old display of U.S. soldiers who have/are serving abroad. This photo display has been up in U.S. post office in Paso Robles, California since 2001. Given the post office’s proximity to Santa Barbara, it shouldn’t be surprising some liberal moonbat called the display “pro-war,” and a “Wall of Shame.”

What is surprising is how absolutely hateful and pathetic that moonbat is to go through the trouble of complaining about these fine soldiers. And, it is equally spineless and pathetic that the spokesman for the U.S. Post Office, Richard Maher, said, “regulations specify that only official postal announcements and other government notices can be put up on the walls. We just cannot put those photos back up, they should not have been up there to begin with.”

This leads me to believe the complainer has some understanding of law and used it to point out “the policy.”

Hmmm… seems the unAmerican moonbat in question might be another narcissistic lawyer. I wonder if s/he is an atheist, as well.  Mix it all together, and what do you get? Can anyone say, “ACLU?”

One thing is certain: the PoG just loves hating the Military and our Country.  Here’s an idea: Let’s put him/her against the post office wall and shoot the PoG for treason!

If It’s Good Enough For God…

I want my taxes cut. Politicians can propose and enact all of the social programs they wish, but first, I want my taxes cut. Permanently.

I want more of the money that I earn to be under my control. Not under the control of the government; and especially, not under the control of Socialists like Hillary Clinton. I work for my money. I earn it. It’s mine. I don’t presume to claim ownership over her money, so I don’t understand why she seems to think she has a right to take control of mine.

Actually, my view is that any money I earn is really ”God’s money.” I’m just stewarding it for Him. The Lord blessed me with certain gifts with which I have been able to earn a nice living. I am trying to use my gifts even more so I can have a great living.

So far, I’ve been a fair-to-middling steward. But I am trying to do a better job. Isn’t our Government essentially stewarding our tax monies? Shouldn’t we expect it to do a better job utilizing our monies in a more effective manner? I sure do! But, as we have seen from over seventy years of social engineering through government spending, it hasn’t. Or can’t. Or won’t.

There are some who think it is just to take money from wealthier citizens and to give the appropriated amounts to poorer citizens. That is about as unAmerican a concept as I can imagine. What is just about taking the money earned by one group and giving it to another group that hasn’t earned it? Not only is it not just, it perpetuates class warfare and instills a sense of victimhood in poor citizens who buy into that philosophy. As a person who experienced poverty from childhood up into his late twenties, I find this Robin Hoodlum philosophy demeaning and insulting. 

From the time I was five, I worked. I LOVED to work. It meant I could earn money and buy things my parents couldn’t afford to buy for me or my brothers; things like decent food, clothing and toys. And, candy! I weeded gardens, washed cars, delivered newspapers, and sold lemonade. As a teenager and young man, I worked as a bus boy, fast food employee, waiter, laborer, video store clerk, camp counselor, and so on. All of which paid very little. But it paid. And, I knew that if I worked hard enough, I could make more money. No matter how poor we were, I usually felt hopeful that the future would be better.  

However, there were times when I was very young, because of my father’s alcoholism and/or flakiness, we had to wait in long lines to collect welfare. Usually, it was after we had been evicted from yet another rental. Those were humiliating times for me. Hours spent in large, impersonal (and smelly) government rooms; lines of morose people looking down at the floor in despair or resignation. I always worried that my father would give up, too, and accept defeat. That welfare would become our way of life. Sometimes I thought I would give up, as well.

Thankfully, that didn’t happen. Though my parents eventually divorced, my desire to do better for myself grew stronger. I’ll take adversity over hand outs any day.

My current views on money, poverty, and fairness were shaped by my life experiences. And, it is my faith that guides me toward the wisdom of understanding that enslaving another in a cycle of poverty is not compassion.

Until such time as every wealthy member of the Democrat Party gives away all of their money to the wretched and oppressed, I am not interested in their thoughts about what I do with my money.

So, no more taxation by misrepresentation of compassion. The Constitution specifically says, ”to promote the general welfare,” not “to create a welfare state.” The only level of taxation I find acceptable is: 10% to the Federal government and 10% to the State government. No more. If 10% is good enough for God, 20% total sure as heck should be good enough for the government.

Moveon.borg: Resistance Isn’t Futile

The Left looooves to call those on the Right, “Nazis.” Anytime it sees or hears something it disagrees with, the Left gets apoplectic and indignant, and starts calling people names. Who are the real Nazis, though?

The Crush Rush Democrats are really looking foolish in their current campaign to reinstitute the misnamed, Fairness Doctrine. If ever a group behaved in a fascist manner, it is the the far Left radicals who populate the Congressional Democrat Party, as well as the nutroots smear groups like Moveon.org and Media Matters for America. These are the 21st Century Fascists. Which is surprising to them because they claim that only they stand for freedom of speech and civil liberties. Their actions prove a different reality.

It is surreal how Senators Reid and Pelosi, with straight faces, project onto others what they themselves are guilty of. Talk radio host Michael Savage is not wrong when he declares Liberalism is a mental disorder. There is no other explanation for the unmitigated gall the Left has for continually lying and distorting. All, while lying and distorting.

These moonbats must really think. we’re. stupid!

The Right is every bit as fallible as the Left. No doubt about it. But, dear God, just how far do the liberals think they can take things before karma finally walks up and bitchslaps them into unconsciousness? Enough is enough. We must publically challenge everything these fascists claim. 99% of the time, it’s an outright lie. The other 1% of the time, it is merely a distortion. In short, nothing liberals say can be taken at face value.

The only hope for the Republican Party is if its leaders start to exhibit character and vociferously promote REAL American Values.  The Left has none. At least no values regular Americans care to hold. The “San Francisco values” exported by Madame Speaker Pelosi most certainly are not worth promoting; though she and the Pink Mafias are trying their damnedest to force us to swallow them.

Well, Pelosi can stick her San Francisco values where the sun don’t shine. The Sixties are long past done, and the sorry remnants of that time should be relegated to the scrap books of history (along with the water bongs the liberals must still be sucking on). For forty years, the Left has dictated the terms of discourse in our country. And, our culture has been cheapened for it.

Free sex, free drugs, free health care! Anything… Anything but true free speech. Because the second we utter a politically-incorrect opinion… It’s off to the clink for some trumped up “Hate Crime” charge. We don’t need or want such forces of fascism and cultural perversion in our country.

We must resist.

I don’t like to be lied to. And, I like being told what I can say, think, or ‘feel’ even less. It’s time to resist the fascists. Some of the most fascist of all not only wear pink, but rainbow colors, as well. There isn’t an aspect of society that isn’t being dictated to by the Gay activist community. When someone does something they don’t like, they, too, call names and besmirch their perceived enemies. Most of the time, their antics go beyond rational discourse. And, when that happens, regular people get freaked out and scurry away from the nutroots.

The reason is because you cannot rationally debate an irrational group. Feelings, not logic, are their only means of expressing themselves. And, since feelings are personal and subjective, whatever they think or say MUST be true, right? When faced with facts and logical arguments, what does a liberal do? S/he looks around for the nearest digital video camera and starts screaming, “Don’t tase me, bro!”

Oxymoron #2007: “Journalistic Integrity”

When a country’s Fourth Estate behaves in a fascist manner, how free can that country truly be? Were it not for the rise of the Fifth Estate, I shudder to think what we common citizens of this fine country would have to do in order to find out actual facts surrounding politics and current events. Research on our own using available source documents? No, that takes too much time for the average person to undertake. Especially when we have to work over half the year in order to fund myriad social programs for poverty-stricken citizens and illegal aliens. Do we have to bribe reporters for the truth? No, that would be unethical. Should we offer them blow jobs? That should okay. After all, the potential next First Lady B.J. Clinton said a blow job isn’t sex.

But what if we aren’t interested in engaging in rainbow activities to get ”just the facts, Ma’am?” Well, thank God for Algore! 

Had he not invented the Internet, we would not now have a means of disputing all of the Socialist-funded, sky-is-falling, junk science fed to us on a daily basis by our primary source of information- the Mainstream Media. And, this includes such liberal pap as Al’s highly touted and highly over-rated theatrical slide show on Global Incineration. In fact, without the prescience of the Goracle, we wouldn’t have a blogosphere at all. And that would be disasterous for us truth-seekers. For, along with Conservative talk radio, the blogosphere has exposed the MSM for the salacious, agenda-driven, anti-American apparati that it is.

The blogosphere has been around since time immemorial. But it wasn’t until the nineties, when graphical web pages first became prevalent, that the blogosphere really was “conceived.” By the time of the First Iraq War, the blogosphere left its embryonic stage. After 9/11, the blogosphere grew exponentially, into its current late-term incarnation. I only hope that advocates of ‘Choice’ don’t set their sights on the Internet. A new movement is about to be born, and I’d hate to hear the sawing and vacuuming that would accompany the death of our only real means of accurate information and free expression.

It is now quite apparent just how oppressed we are in this country. And no, not by that nasty ol’ Bush ‘regime.’ But by the MSM itself. And, we have been oppressed for a very long time.

Reportage on television and print has become sanitized, filtered, and mass produced. All the news that’s fit to print is generated by a few call-it-in reporters who then disseminate their Liberal-approved product through countless news outlets. Where news was once documented firsthand, onsite, and then thoroughly vetted and reported objectively, it is now primarily editorialized, and partially fabricated, by fabulists employed by the Gray Lady and members of her elitist circle. 

What is the truth anymore? Under whose lens will we continue to be forced to view it? Historical events have been skewed and rewritten so many times by members of the Mainstream Media, that I’m no longer sure if Cinco de Mayo is a holiday to commemorate the deliciousness of a sandwich condiment, the Independence  of Mexican from France and Spain,  or the achievements of five stem cell researchers in a clinic in Rochester.  

What Makes an American an “American?”

Consequential times are upon us. Our culture is under assault from without and from within. Given the global anti-American environment we find ourselves in, perhaps it is time to redefine ourselves. Not in others’ terms, but on our own. The vital question we should all be asking ourselves is, “What makes an American an American?”

Is it being a person who shamelessly accepts entitlement bribes from politicians who are only trying to buy themselves into office?

Is it being a person who expects cradle-to-grave security in exchange for self-determination and financial freedom?

Is it being a person who is willing to be less than his or her full potential?

I sure as hell hope not. Americans are made of sterner stuff.

Yes, Life is hard. And it should be. The human condition is defined by challenges met, endured, and overcome. Failure is our greatest teacher. It isn’t something we should deny ourselves, or our children. And, while we may occassionally experience despair because of continual failure; there is, burning within us, a tenacious spirit.

It is a spirit whose flame should be stoked so that it rages within our national bosom. With this spirit ablaze, we will continue to face potential failures, and to accept them as intergral parts of life. Life isn’t made easier by sugarcoating words; not when it is the unvarnished Truth that is needed. Nor is Hopelessness salved by accepting that which we have not earned. Take away competition, and you take away what it means to be an American.

Sadly, the term “rugged individualism” is quickly being supplanted in our national lexicon by “institutionalized victimhood.” This must not continue. Anyone willing to trade their freedom for false security is not thinking like an “American.”

Americans are self-reliant, not dependent. Americans are industrious, not lazy. Americans are determined, not weak. Any other definition is unacceptable. Especially when it is foisted upon us by fellow countrymen.

Cackling Commies and Socialist Scum

I remember a time, not too long ago, when the idea of Socialism in American politics would have been unthinkable. At least, unthinkable to patriotic Americans. Now, the face of Socialism is laughing (or rather, cackling) at us from New York State as she runs for President of the United States of America.

To say that I am distressed by the flagrant promotion of Socialist ideas by this woman, and by her brethren in the Congressional Democrat Party, is an understatement. I am absolutely appalled. What the hell has happened to politics in this country? Daily, we are assailed by fresh insults to our national character. And, these attacks are not just from the Left.

Weak-willed Republicans pander to “the Center,” but really are just trying to assuage ultra-Liberal operatives. RINOs like these are every bit as deceitful and ruinous as Code Pinko, Moveon.borg, and George “I’m Going to Reshape America” Soros. Who are these damned people to try to change our values and traditions?

They are traitors.

Traitors to American values like self-reliance, self-determination, and love of God. Make no mistake about it: Americans are a faithful and true people. We believe our country stands for sterling principles. Truth, justice, and the American Way is not an “outmoded slogan.” It is a statement; one that encapsulates a very worthy code of ethics, and which helps to define our very way of life.

Yet, the Far Left despises that way of life. Since the Sixties, they have worked in earnest, secretly at first, now unabashedly, to undermine our culture. How self-loathing does one have to be to work against one’s own people? I have pondered this imponderable since 2004, when Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, John Kerry, et al, made it clear they hated our Military and our Country. They undermined our war effort, undermined our Military, and subverted our President. They are traitors. Traitors who bend the truth and change the rules without shame.

Those on the Left have been changing the rules since 2000, when the Democrats started their unrelenting push for power at any cost. When things don’t go their way in Congress, they change procedural rules. When things don’t go their way in elections, they change electorial traditions. When reality doesn’t reflect their skewed view of life, they lie. And lie. And lie. And lie. They besmirch, denigrate, and LIE.

How long will those of us who still believe in the greatness of our country allow these lies to go unchallenged? I’m not talking to the Rush Limbaughs, Sean Hannitys, and Michael Savages of America; you folks have been every bit as patriotic and vocal as we need you to be. No, I’m talking about the other yous: you regular, all-American Joes, like me. When will we finally get off of our collective, silent asses and scream, “Hell no! I will NOT let America go under. I will NOT let liars tell me my country is not exceptional. I will NOT be silent any longer!”

This is our challenge; to be willing to fight this war. It is a cultural war whose outcome will determine the fate of our dear country. It is the greatest war we have fought to date. And, it rages in the hearts and minds of every Patriotic American. I hope you decide to enlist.

As you fight this war, stand fast against the gales of cackling laughter. Be resolute against the soul-sapping Socialist values that are eroding our national character. Be brave! After all, America is still the Land of the Free and Home of the Brave. Remember?
