Nazis, Communists, and Socialists Support Occupy Wall Street Protest

Nazis, Communists, and Socialists Support Occupy Wall Street Protest

A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet

The GOP has a wonderful tool to use in defeating Obama in 2012.  It is the unruly crowd called the Occupy Wall Street Movement. It is a gift to the GOP on a silver platter… if they have the common sense to use it.

Obama is creeping ever closer to supporting the out and out socialist/communist/ nazi/labor union movement.  He can’t help himself.  Obama and the modern Democratic Party are drawn to the unruly rabble as moths to a flame.  Why?  They believe the anarchic socialist/communist philosophy espoused by the raucous rabble littering America’s streets with their socialist utopian ideology.

Middle America views the antics of those useful idiots as disruptive, distasteful, and a clear and present danger to America’s security.

We have warned many times of the Democratic Party’s embrace of socialism and yes, even communism. Now it is on display for the world to see.

America is under attack… from inside. It has been a dream of the socialist/communist parties to destroy American capitalism and they now believe that THIS is the time. There is a weak American President who supports their philosophy and, they feel Americans are mentally prepared to toss aside capitalism, which built this nation into the most prosperous and powerful nation on the globe, and replace it with a system of government that will most certainly destroy America in record time. They want a socialist/communist government in America and THAT’S what all the infantile empty-headed antics in the streets of America is all about.
  
Human events has an article entitled: “Nazi Party and Communist Party Support Occupy Wall Street --- So does Obama.” Jim Hoft wrote the article.

 In the article, at Human Events, Mr. Hoft says: “The American Nazi Party likes what it sees.” (SOURCE)  We recommend you read the entire article at Human Events.

 Here is an excerpt from the American Nazi Part website: 

 “Racial Comrades: I am going to address the issue of this "Occupy Wall Street" fervor that has been sweeping the land like a breath of cleansing air!

THE NATIVES ARE GETTING RESTLESS, AND ZOG FEARS IT MIGHT HAVE A POPULAR UPRISING ON ITS HANDS - finally!

This issue is TAYLOR MADE for National Socialists, as well as WN who are serious about DOING SOMETHING - MORE - than shouting "racial slurs" and acting like "poster boys of hate" loons.

After all - JUST WHO - are the WALL STREET BANKERS? The vast majority are JEWS - and the others are SPIRITUAL JEW materialists, who would sell their own mother's gold teeth for a PROFIT. And MORE and MORE people are AWARE of this truth, are not only NOT afraid to TALK ABOUT IT - they're shouting it on WALL STREET!

I urgently URGE all of you to TAKE PART and JOIN IN when these protests hit your neck of the woods. Produce some flyers EXPLAINING the "JEW BANKER" influence - DON'T wear anything marking you as an "evil racist" - and GET OUT THERE and SPREAD the WORD!   
(SOURCE)

Are you beginning to understand what is going on in the Occupy Wall Street Movement? 

There’s more.

At the Communist Party USA website there is the following:

“The movement is the newest wrinkle in the all-people’s upsurge against the banks and corporations and reflects a new level of class-consciousness.

While there is a wide range of political and ideological trends, there is a consensus against corporate greed, getting money out of politics, taxing the rich and putting people before profits.

A big challenge for the CPUSA and left, progressive movements is to link these demonstrations with the labor led all-people’s coalition and help deepen understanding that the path to progress must be through electoral and political action including defeating Republican Tea Party reaction in 2012.

Of primary importance is linking it with the burgeoning fight for jobs and especially passage of the American Jobs Act.

We can also play a role in offering more advanced programmatic ideas like nationalizing the banks and socialism.

To have a positive impact, the CPUSA and YCL must be a part of the “Occupy” movement, participating at every level and building greater local support for the actions among labor and progressive forces.” (SOURCE)


The Socialist Party is VERY deeply invested on the Occupy Wall Street movement.  They are asking their supporters to stand with protesters, listing events and times in various cities. (SOURCE)  In a statement on their website they say the following: “The Socialist Party USA supports the mobilizations to occupy Wall St. in New York and various cities across the US and encourages our locals to take part in these actions.”  Then there is a listing of the various protest locations.  You really need to read this site for yourself to grasp the depth of the Socialist Party involvement in the Occupy Wall Street movement.  You will find it HERE.

Socialism is a condition that is terminal to any nation -- and America is no exception.

The GOP has a grand opportunity to show the Occupy Wall Street movement up for what it is – a wanna-be Bolshevik Revolution such that in Russia in 1917 by what became know as the Russian Communist Party.

As time goes on the connections between the Democratic Party, the Obama White House, and the Occupy Wall Street movement will become very clear.

If the GOP has the sense God gave a gnat they will use that evidence and irrefutably expose Obama for the socialist he really is and his socialist/communist agenda for America. It is an agenda America cannot survive.

Useful Idiots

Useful Idiots

A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet

The term Useful Idiots is said to have originated in Russia and was used to describe those who blindly supported Lenin and Stalin and their cronies while they (Lenin and Stalin) went about committing atrocity after atrocity.  It has also been used to describe Americans who supported the socialist/communist cause in the USA and other democratic country.

The Urban Dictionary says the following about useful idiots:  “Today, it refers to brainwashed liberals and leftists the world over (usually college students that aren't necessarily idiots, but just misinformed, naive, and ignorant of facts due to being indoctrinated with liberal/socialist propaganda through their public education) who believe that George W. Bush has committed more crimes against humanity than leftist darlings like Saddam Hussain, Yasser Arafat, and Osama Bin Laden, and still defend Communism, the cause of over 100 million deaths to this day.”

A little farther down the page it says:Unthinking proponents of socialism and/or communism.

You can usually find them swarming the internet, participating in riots to promote tolerance, attempting to think up questions for themselves to answer, or sitting ……….  with their friends discussing the failings of capitalism over a light frappuccino. (You may read the entire definition for yourself at the Urban Dictionary site HERE.)

When I first heard of the Occupy Wall Street crowd, I chuckled to myself.  Here we go again, I thought.

When I saw the crowd on TV, I belly laughed.  It was the same crowd of useful idiots I experienced in the 1960’s.  Faces and fashions have changed a bit, but their totally vacuous message is unchanged and as clear as a bell:  “We haven’t a clue what we are doing, but we are waiting on a leader to tell us what to say, what to do and where to go.”

Their utter clueless-ness, their total naïveté are the very qualities (?) sought out by powerful people with anti-American causes, lots of money, and an overwhelming hatred of freedom, liberty, and the constitutional republic of America.

The pitiful socialist dregs of America’s academia use them -- and their idiocy -- to press their cause for a socialist America, their Utopian dream.  The “sixties socialists” have yet to accept that their socialist dream has slain millions of human beings and caused the demise of numerous countries and is currently about to topple the European Union. And yet -- their puppets, the idiots in the street mobs, are actually calling for a totalitarian government in America … and … insisting that American voters reelect Obama as President. 

A number of the world’s ultra-rich understand all this, and yet they don’t care.  In fact, they seem to rather enjoy the anarchy and even encourage it from the safety of their ivory towers far above the fray.  They move earth’s government’s around as if they are pieces on a game board… for what?  For FUN! … and PROFIT!

As you watch the antics of those pitiful  “near-people,” in the street mobs, and listen to their anti-capitalist rants, remember this:  THESE are the people who support Obama for President.  Take a good look at those street mobs. THEY are the people who will race to the polls in November of 2012 and cast as many ballots as possible to ensure their heartthrob regains the Presidency. THEY are the people who will do everything they can to insure America becomes the socialist paradise the mob leaders are determined to create by any means necessary. 

Yes, their antics ARE funny. But they are far more dangerous to the freedom of over 300 million Americans than al Qaida is or ever was. 

People make fools of themselves for various reasons.  The political left, however, has cornered the market on making fools of themselves in the cause of socialism.

They are desperate.  And their desperation is born of their blood curdling fear of conservative Americans who represent liberty, freedom, and deep support of the US Constitution. 

That mob of socialist brats is pathetic, pitiful, and DANGEROUS.  THEY are the leftist leaders of tomorrow.     

May God save America from the likes of these useful “socialist” idiots.

Democrats Harm Their Party In Wisconsin



Democrats Harm Their Party In Wisconsin
A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet


It gives me no small amount of pleasure to watch the Democratic Party inflict harm upon itself with those “demonstrations” in Wisconsin -- and those just beginning in other states, as well.

“Oh,” but you say, “Those are UNIONS demonstrating in Wisconsin!” To which, I would respond, “That’s what I said – DEMOCRATS!”

Come on, folks! The UNIONS are the democrats and the democrats ARE the UNIONS! This is a political fact I have known since I was a child.

I have told reader’s before that my uncle was a big wig in one of the most powerful unions of its day. I don’t know what position he held, but it was important enough that when he died, the United States Secretary of Labor attended his funeral.

I watched my uncle visually check his automobile for bombs, underneath the car and under the hood and dashboard and seat in the mornings before his drive to the airport. I grew up with those images forever burned into my memory.

Americans have very little sympathy for people WITH JOBS these days not reporting to work -- and taking that time to raise hell in the streets. Many of those people protesting have jobs with salaries from the public trough… meaning they are paid with taxpayer money. Do they not understand how that makes the taxpayer feel?

I must tell you, what is happening in Wisconsin is turning more and more Americans against labor unions and if nothing else good comes from all that sound and fury THAT, alone, in my opinion, would be a good thing for America.

It is also extremely “telling” when the democrats flee the state. It speaks to the veracity of all the claims the GOP and conservatives have made over the years -- that when the going gets tough, the democrats flee. Now, all of America has seen it.

We have often told you that democrats strike us as child-like. They seem to be ruled by emotion. Good solid reasoning seems to be just outside their grasp. This, too, is on display in Wisconsin.

We’d like to express our appreciation to the Democratic Party for making our job so much easier. See – we can claim all this stuff about them, but until Americans see it for themselves it means nothing to them. Now, however, the Democratic Party has been kind enough to put their emotional answer to a question that calls for deep reasoning right out there in public view where the American electorate can see the unvarnished truth. And for that, again I am truly grateful to the democrats.

We conservatives would also like to express our appreciation to the unions for burning all that cash money on the Wisconsin demonstrations. That is a great help to the conservative cause and will most certainly aid us in a achieving our goal of stopping Obama from securing a second term in the White House. The less money the unions have, the less money they can contribute to Obama’s campaign -- and that, too, is good – very good!

We have warned so many times, dear reader, about the Democratic Party’s lack of feeling for the “common man.” Oh, they would argue otherwise having seized the mantle of “the people’s party” for themselves. Only, it is not true. Hopefully, Americans viewing the so-called “demonstrations” in Wisconsin will discern for themselves that just exactly who the Democratic Party actually represents.

Look. We knew way back when, that at some point this was going to happen. We knew the labor unions would suck our state treasuries dry. They have done it.

Public employees should never have been allowed to unionize in America. Those who opposed it predicted then that this time would come. And here we are. Remember what I said above about emotion versus reasoning?

The situation in all our states calls for cold, hard, reasoning and some extremely difficult decisions. Nobody is going to be happy with what must be done for the states to survive. Most people, however, know this and they will act like grown-ups and not take to the streets like spoiled brats on a rampage.

When the choice is between busting a union, and busting a state, I’ll come down on the side of union-busting every time.

Bipartisanship Must Be Left At The Door


Bipartisanship Must Be Left At The Door
A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet


Bipartisanship has no place in the next Congress. Getting along with Democrats should not even be a consideration. We conservatives did not send representatives to the US House of Representatives and the US Senate to “get along” with Democrats OR the Obama Administration. We sent them there to bring the current goings on to a “screeching halt” and to turn the country around and take it back to its conservative roots as a constitutional republic and not the socialist “People’s Republic” the liberal-socialists of the Democratic Party have striven so hard to make it into.

Our country is bearly recognizable today as a constitutional republic. The democratic controlled congress made clear they did not give a rip what the people wanted and they set about to “fundamentally change” America into a socialist dung heap. The many government regulatory agencies under the command of the Obama Regime have taken on so much power they resemble more the Nazi Gestapo than they do agencies of the US government… a government supposedly controlled by the people of the country. They, too, must be stopped, even if that means closing them down -- forever. The Environmental Protection Agency, the Federal Communications Commission, the Department of Homeland Security, the Education Department, the Energy Department, the Equal Employment Opportunities Commission, the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, all top the list of government agencies that must be stopped.

Speaking of US government regulatory agencies – have you ever taken the time to discover just how many government agencies there are? Well, now you can. Go (HERE) for a complete list of all US government agencies. It is an “A” to “Z” list – and you will be astounded! These represent only those agencies made public. We have no idea, who, what, or how many others exist without the knowledge of the citizens of the country.

Prepare for the liberal-socialist democrats to begin, very shortly, to complain that the US government is “broken.” See, it is NOT broken as long as they get their way. Only when the American people get THEIR way is the US government broken to the Democrats!


If the politicians we sent to Washington, as a result of the November elections, do as we want and have instructed them to do, there will be a knock-down-drag-out brawl within the US House of Representatives and the US Senate over the next two years.

We don’t want compromise. We don’t want bipartisanship. We did not send them to Washington for either. We sent them to Washington to rescue our country -- before it is lost forever.


For instance: We want ObamaCare repealed. We want it COMPLETELY repealed! That, alone, will be a monstrous job. The so-called “Dream Act,” which is only another rendition of Amnesty for illegal aliens must be stopped as well.

There will be weeping, and wailing and gnashing of teeth among the democrats at any effort to repeal ObamaCare, especially. Its repeal will mean the government losses control of one-sixth of the US economy. You’d better believe they will fight tooth and nail for control of the lives of every American citizen. They will weep on the floor of their respective chambers. They will tell America that ObamaCare is for the children, for the oppressed minorities, for anything and everything they can think of that might tug at America’s heartstrings. They have won so many battles before by playing on the voter’s emotions that they will not care how ridiculous they look with the crocodile tears streaming down their façade covered faces. It will be a ridiculous comedy played out before the eyes of the world.

We conservatives must be prepared for the onslaught of vile propaganda unleashed on their efforts to rescue America. The Mainstream Media, which is totally immersed in the agenda of the liberal-socialist democrats, will ride to the rescue of Obama and his socialist agenda. It has already begun. They currently sing his praises as the “come-back-kid” after his mediocre successes in the lame duck session of Congress.

Over the next two years, conservatives will need to take careful notice of the remaining “RINO’s” in Congress and prepare a plan of attack to remove them from office in the elections of November 2012.

And we must discover a conservative republican candidate for president who actually has a chance to win. Frankly, I see no possible winner among the host of names being floated about for consideration as possible candidates for the republican nomination today. We may need to go outside the usual herd to find a new face, a new name, with hard rock conservative values to carry our banner into the Oval Office.

The next two years will be two of the most difficult years in the conservative movement in the United States. We must be unrelenting as we push forward the conservative agenda.

Someone once said: “A nation of sheep, breeds a government of wolves.” It is time for conservative Americans to re-assert themselves as neither sheep nor wolves – but as lion-hearted Americans.

Ours is a rescue mission. If we do not press home our advantage over the next two years our mission will become a “recovery” mission.

Judge’s Ruling Mirrors America’s Decadence and Decline


Judge’s Ruling Mirrors America’s Decadence and Decline
The Path to the Draft!
A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet

America’s moral decline has been obvious for decades to those Americans who actually make an attempt to maintain civility and morality not just in their religious lives, but in their “workaday” lives as well.

Now we get rulings from the courts, which demand that some of us accept those things our religion teaches us are abominations -- the worse kinds of sin.

Are we so stupid that we have to wonder why America is in such trouble?

Could America’s trouble stem from it’s forsaking the deity that had extended the arm of protection and guaranteed the prosperity and progress of a nation I am personally convinced was founded as the last hope for a deteriorating world?

America has deteriorated from a nation held up as a shining example of what a God-fearing nation ought to be to a nation so mired in decadence that we have become the sort of nation to which WE USED TO SEND MISSIONARIES!

Look, we murder our babies and refer to it as “The Right To Choose.” We accept homosexuality and refer to it as “Tolerance.”

Many of our mainline religious denominations have gone over to the enemy. “Under the same management since 33 AD” no longer applies. Having found that following the dictates of God and the Scriptures is uncomfortable and inconvenient they have forsaken their mission on this earth and become no more than social clubs espousing leftists political philosophy from their pulpits such as environmentalism, liberalism, political correctness, (which is rooted in Marxism), and moral relativism. It would seem the modern mainline denomination churches now stand for everything -- but the Christian faith.

I have heard it said that if God does not destroy America, then he owes an apology to Sodom and Gomorrah.

What leads me to reverse my collar and climb into the pulpit with this tome? Another judge legislating from the bench. A judge’s ruling that Americans MUST accept a life-style many of the Judeo-Christian faith believe -- and their faith teaches -- is one of the worse sins a human being can commit is, or, at least, OUGHT to be, an affront to every American who subscribes to the Christian faith. Unfortunately, subscribing to the Christian faith and living the Christian faith are two different things in today’s America.

Yes, I understand the judge’s ruling applied to the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy of the US military. But do not be so naive that you kid yourself. This ruling will, most certainly, come to apply to all civilian endeavors as well.

This ruling will destroy our military just as it will bring dissension, discord, and eventually, dissolution to any civilian organization to which it is applied. For evidence, all one has to do is consider the mainline religious denominations which have accepted homosexual leaders and now permit the ordination of practicing homosexuals as pastors. They are crumbling from within while those religious denominations that insist upon remaining true to the scriptures are thriving and growing in vast numbers. After having tossed the scripture, upon which their churches were founded, out the window, they wallow in self-denial as they struggle just to have enough attendance at services to fill the choir, let alone the pews. They are, as the scriptures tell us: reaping what they have sown.

I left my denomination when it went over to the enemy. If I were an active member of the US military today, as soon as my current enlistment was up, I would leave the military, as well.

The US military is at war. They are fighting and dying every day. This is certainly NOT the time to force them to implement a new social policy on the fighting forces, which everyone (but the left) knows is going to cost the USA military additional lives on the battlefield.

The political left has never understood the sacrifice the people of our military make to insure the continued existence of the left’s unhappy lives. They have extreme difficulty understanding how anyone would willingly give their life for their country. They give lip service to terms such as “respect” and “honor” but I suspect they have never made the connection between those words and their application and practice, as they pertain to the US military.

If this judge’s ruling is allowed to stand, and I see no reason to suspect otherwise, as any appeal will be before the 9th Circuit Court, the most liberal court in the land, then we suggest the Commander-in-Chief order a 45 day period in which any US service member, not wishing to serve alongside homosexuals, be allowed to request and receive an honorable discharge and leave the services forthwith.

Of course, that will not happen.

If I were a recruiting officer today, I would request reassignment to some other duty. But recruiting won’t be a problem for long. The draft will have to be reinstituted in a few short years.

New “RED ARMY” Gathers in Washington


New “RED ARMY” Gathers in Washington!
Democrats/Socialists/Marxists/Communists/Progressives/Liberal-Socialists Rally
Expected to be a Monumental Boost to Republicans at the Polls!
A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet



Finally, Americans will be able to see for themselves the Socialist/Marxist/Communist menace to America is REAL! Freedom loving Americans will be able to put a face on the threat to America’s freedom and America’s liberty.

The rally scheduled for Saturday October 2nd, 2010 in the nation’s capital will present Americans with a picture of the threat this nation faces.

Conservative opinion writers have been warning that the socialist movement is growing in America for years. The American public apparently did not take us seriously -- until the Obama Regime took over the US government and along with their liberal-socialist democrat cohort in the Congress began their vicious assault on America’s freedom.

This Saturday you will be able to see for yourself the threat from the dark forces of evil as they gather in an attempt to bolster support for their socialist president and their brother and sister socialists and marxists in the Democratic Party.

If, dear reader, you STILL have ANY doubt about the motives of the throng of Reds you will see Saturday disabuse yourself of such doubts by visiting the website of one of the promoters of this coming Saturday’s rally. Simply go the website of the Communist Party USA. You will find it at: http://www.cpusa.org/

Once you are on the site at the top of the page click on: “Go To Young Communist League USA.” The link is:
http://www.yclusa.org/

Scroll down the page a ways to the article titled: “The YCL Organizing for the One Nation Working Together Rally in DC!” The link to the article is: http://www.yclusa.org/article/articleview/1903/1/6/


We recommend you follow the steps above as it is important that you see, with your own eyes, the communist connection.


The rally Saturday should convince all but only the most leftist of leftists that America is already in a war for its survival as a free country.


This rally of communists, socialists, Marxists, Progressives, and Democrats could not come at a better time for the Republican Party.


Every day I am coming into contact with more and more voters who tell me they plan to vote a straight republican ballot this November.


This rally should drive even more voters away from the Democratic Party as they come to realize as they survey the evidence, right before their eyes, that the Communist/Socialist threat we have been preaching about is REAL – ABSOLUTELY REAL!


Lovers of liberty need to see the army of “Reds” arrayed against them to drive home the chilling message. That message is: They plan to take your country from you and yoke every American with the chains of Socialist/Communist/Marxist SLAVERY! Make no mistake about it – Socialism/Communism/ Marxism is SLAVERY!


At some point, dear reader, Americans must face the fact that there exists, in vast numbers, Americans who HATE America. Saturday, we will see the vanguard of the “new Red Army” with which we must contend for the freedom and the soul of America.


If Obama has done nothing else for Americans his predilection for all things socialist and marxist has awakened a sleeping giant and kindled a new fire in the hearts of Americans who are determined to sacrifice everything to preserve liberty in America, to preserve the constitutional republic our forefathers bled and died to establish and then met every challenge, often at the cost of their lives, to insure America’s freedom for the next generation.


You and I can do no less.


The time has arrived for Americans to choose whom they will serve, those who stand for freedom or those who stand for slavery.


Understand, also, there will be no quarter given in the coming contest. It is all or nothing, freedom or death.


As the scriptures tell us: “…having done all to stand … stand therefore.” The time to make that stand – is NOW!

America: From A “SNAFU” To A “FUBAR”



America: From A “SNAFU” To A “FUBAR”
A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet


In an article titled at Townhall.com entitled “Our Big Mistake,” Cal Thomas says: “The liberal wing of the Democratic Party is dismantling the America we have known and loved and transforming it into something it has never been: a socialist state. If we let them do it, there will be no forgiveness, no excuse, and no going back. And our shame will be an indelible stain for which future generations will judge us.” (SOURCE)

How RIGHT he is! Mr. Thomas is pointing something out, to his readers, which we warned of, long and loud, during the presidential campaign of 2008. We did not SUGGEST this would happen, we told you, flat out, that if WOULD happen, not because we are so darned smart, but because history has taught us that you cannot place men like Obama in power and NOT expect them to assume dictatorial powers even if that means fundamentally transforming the country into a socialist dung heap in order to secure that power unto themselves. But, then again, it was not only we who predicted this, it was Obama, himself, who promised “fundamental change” in America.

Well, America elected Obama and as the bumper sticker asks: “How’s that hopey/changey thingy working out for you, huh?” I’d have to answer as the old farm boy that I am: “Not too goooood!” The fact of the matter is – it is an unmitigated disaster!

Mr. Thomas goes on to say: The taxing and regulating has only just begun. The Obama people are not intrinsically evil. Like someone caught up in a cult, they sincerely believe in the fiction they are peddling: more taxes will produce a healthier economy; the record debt is not a problem; more regulation will result in banks and big businesses operating ethically and for the greater good of their customers and the country; nationalized health care will mean better care for the sick; unrestricted abortion and same-sex marriage are fine; unenforced immigration laws are good because Democrats need to import votes and Republicans want cheap labor.” (SOURCE)
I have a slight disagreement with Mr. Thomas here. The people of the Obama Regime may not be intrinsically evil, but, taken as a whole, I am very afraid that, collectively, they have become evil.

The country is broke and Obama and his socialist cronies with their socialist/marxist agenda for America are making it “broker.” America is so deep in a financial hole it will literally take generations to get out -- IF we are fortunate enough to survive, as a constitutional republic, far enough into the future to make survival as a single fifty-state nation worthwhile. THAT is a BIG if!

Now we know we were lied to about Obamacare. We were lied to about taxes. We were lied to about federally funded abortions under ObamaCare -- and that just scratches the surface of the parade of lies marching in lock step out of the Obama White House. And, as singer Al Jolson used to say: “You ain’t seen nothing yet!”

Consider the following items on the Obama/democrat/socialist/marxist/progressive agenda:

Plans for OPEN BORDERS, plans for a ONE-WORLD FOREIGN POLICY, plans to LEGALIZE DRUGS, plans legalize EUTHANASIA, plans to DE CONSTRUCT THE MORAL VALUE AND ATTITUDES OF AMERICA and THE WESTERN WORLD, plans to push PROGRESSIVE IDEOLOGY OF RIGHTS AND ENTITLEMENTS, plans for the “get richer” scheme for America’s elite -- referred to as the CAP AND TRADE SYSTEM, and more, much more.

Just consider the Democratic Party today. Some say socialists have HIJACKED THE DEMOCRAT PARTY, AND NOW they OWN IT LOCK, STOCK and BARREL. (I’m not entirely sure the Democratic Party WAS hi-jacked by the socialists. I tend to lean toward what I believe is closer to the truth -- and that is that the Democratic Party found it had much more in common with the socialists than it did with democratic Americans and, therefore, simply embraced the socialist agenda and made it theirs. The handful of true democrats remaining in that political party are sick at heart over what has happened to their political party. But, again, if history tells us anything -- it is that the Democratic Party is lost, forever, to socialism/Marxism.
Republicans should not become complacent, for the same socialist movement is creeping into the GOP’s fold and will, if not ruthlessly stamped out, consume them, as well.

Shortly after the Obama Regime took power in the US we speculated as to whom, exactly, was running the Obama Regime. Many of us, with the same question, came to refer to this behind the scenes puppeteer as the Shadow Government. It was quickly apparent to practiced observers of American politics that someone was pulling Obama’s strings and had been for a very long time.
For a young man to come out of near obscurity, with a shadowy history, to suddenly appear in the limelight and gather such a following does not just happen. It is carefully, meticulously, planned over years. Obama is that man.

Obama, with seeming messianic powers, became a fatal attraction for millions of American who bought his promises and fell in behind him as the children of Hamelin did the Pied Piper. The results are turning out to be very much alike.

Obama is America’s Big Mistake. It may yet be a fatal mistake.

This November, in the Mid-Term Election, Americans have a chance to blunt the power of Obama and the man, or men, behind him, the puppeteer, sometimes referred to as the shadow government. In order to do so conservatives must vote in record numbers against the democratic candidates and GOP candidates who have shown any inclination toward supporting Obama’s socialist/marxist agenda. We must regain control of at least one house of the Congress.

As to the title for this column – SNAFU is an old military acronym. It stands for “Situation Normal – All ****** Up! America normally is, shall we say, “messed” up. But that is the hallmark of a democratic nation. Believe me, it would have been much worse had our forefather not chosen to create a constitutional “representative” republic for the people of this country.

When Obama and his minions took control of the US government “SNAFU” was the order of the day. Within eighteen months, or so, the Obama Regime has managed to take America from “SNAFU” to “FUBAR,” which means “****** up Beyond All Recognition.” I suspect that is why so many Americans do not recognize their country anymore.

The Democrat’s “Coffee Party”


The Democrat’s “Coffee Party”
The Socialist Answer To The Tea Party
A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet

********************

The democrats are nothing if they are not stunningly predictable.

The democrats have been having fits because the Tea Party is giving them fits. They don’t like the Tea Party. In fact – they HATE it! But they WANT one and they want one in the worst sort of way.

Here is an excerpt from an article at the Washington Post entitled: “With 'One Nation,' liberal groups aim to match tea party's energy, influence”:

“If imitation is the highest form of flattery, the "tea party" movement must be honored.
In an effort to replicate the tea party's success, 170 liberal and civil rights groups are forming a coalition that they hope will match the movement's political energy and influence. They promise to "counter the tea party narrative" and help the progressive movement find its voice again after 18 months of floundering.

The large-scale attempt at liberal unity, dubbed "One Nation," will try to revive themes that energized the progressive grassroots two years ago.”

The article goes on to identify some of the organizations that will make up “One Nation”:

“The groups involved represent the core of the first-time voters who backed President Obama -- including the National Council of La Raza, NAACP, AFL-CIO, SEIU and the United States Student Association. (The effort is separate from the Democratic Party's plan to spend $50 million trying to reach those same voters.)” Read the entire article at the Washington Post HERE.
With only a cursory glance one finds so many problems with this that it is difficult to locate a point at which to begin pointing them out.

However, we will try.

First the Tea Party was created, for all intents and purposes, by the Democratic Party and, of course, their attempt to murder our republic. The dems didn't MEAN to create a right wing political movement, but their massive attempt to turn the US from a constitutional republic to a socialist dung heap certainly caused the backlash that resulted in the Tea Party movement.

See, the Tea Party is a true grassroots organization. It sprang from the people. In the case of “One Nation, it is borning as a result of hatred of, and envy of, the Tea Party, and it is NOT, I repeat, it is NOT A GRASSROOITS organization.

Politicians, labor leaders, and minority organizations are creating “One Nation.” (If “One Nation” is the name the dems finally settle upon. The last we heard they were still arguing about the name of the organization.)

One thing we can be sure of, however, it will be run by, and used by, the Democratic Party and its socialist allies in the labor unions and the minority organizations, to dupe those who continually give their vote to the democrats, election after election, in order for the democrats to perpetuate their Plantation Politics movement which put Obama in the White House and gave them control of Congress.

You must understand: The Democratic Party is made up of two kinds of members: the used -- and the users.

You know, it really is sad to see an entire sector of the American population remain in slavery. Call it what you will but slavery comes closest to describing the condition of those who, for generations, have relied upon the government to feed them and cloth them and supply them with enough money to enjoy such things and large shiny cars, cell phones, cable TV, tattoos that cost hundreds of dollars, and luxuries the average middle class Americans will buy only with their disposable income. It is the oldest of political strategies. It is nothing more than buying votes.

This is a shameful manner in which to conduct America’s political business. But there appears to be no shame in the Democratic Party.

Year after year we watch as they go about their skullduggery, unabashedly, from the precinct level all the way to the White House.

The press, who used to be counted upon to be the watchdogs of the people, refuses to call them on their underhanded way of doing political business. But that is no longer surprising as we have come to accept that the press has sold out to them, as well.

The Tea Party is not a Republican organization. In fact the GOP is frightened and a little embarrassed by the Tea Party. Oh, the GOP wants the support of the Tea Party, but they take umbrage at the way the Tea Party calls their hand on their lack of spine and their love for the “status quo,” in other words -- the way the Republican Party abhors “rocking the boat.” The Tea Party revels in rocking the boat.

Those cobbling together the “Coffee Party,” One Nation, insist the democrats are not running them. But even the dimmest bulb among us knows One Nation will be a democratic operation from top to bottom.

Is Obama Abusing the President’s Executive Order Privilege?


Is Obama Abusing the President’s Executive Order Privilege?
A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet

*****************

Is Obama using the executive order to legislate, or make law, from the Oval Office -- therefore circumventing the Congress? That is a good question and one that has been put to me a number of times recently by close friends. I must admit, as well, to a grave concern on my part about the seeming way Obama appears to be legislating from the Oval Office.

It has become apparent to many Americans that Congress needs to take a closer look, to evaluate, a number of executive orders by Obama.

Before you get your knickers in a knot, understand that we are living in extremely precarious times here, in America, under the socialist yoke of the Obama Regime.

See, the plain truth is -- the only basis in the Constitution for an executive order is in Article II, Section 1:

“The executive power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America.”
and Article II, Section 3:

“He [the President] shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed.”

Some of you may remember that the Supreme Court ruled that President Truman’s 1952 order to “nationalize” all the steel mills in the US, by placing them under federal control, was invalid because, according to the Court, it was an attempt to make law.

It has become clear that President Obama is ruling more as a king than a president and if the American people do not insist that Congress put the quietus on his executive order proclamations -- the US is in serious danger of losing our constitutional republic and once again becoming a people ruled by a king and a would-be dictator.

It would seem that Obama subscribes to what is known as the Unitary Executive theory. “The unitary executive theory is a theory of American constitutional law holding that the President controls the entire executive branch. The doctrine is based upon Article Two of the United States Constitution, which vests "the executive power" of the United States in the President.

Although that general principle is widely accepted, there is disagreement about the strength and scope of the doctrine. It can be said that some favor a "strongly unitary" executive, while others favor a "weakly unitary" executive. The former group argue, for example, that Congress’ power to interfere with intra-executive decision-making (such as firing executive branch officials) is limited, and that the President can control policy-making by all executive agencies within the limits set for those agencies by Congress. Still others agree that the Constitution requires a unitary executive, but believe this is a bad thing, and propose its abolition by constitutional amendment. ”(From Wikipedia HERE.)

I happen to be one of those Americans who believe that, as stated above, the President can control policy-making by all executive agencies within the limits set for those agencies by Congress.

If the rumors that Obama is about to sign an executive order to grant amnesty to the illegal aliens already within the United States are true – then the Congress needs to look into it. Should Obama issued such an executive order, then it certainly must be challenged all the way to the Supreme Court for a ruling.

The Socialist/Democrats in the US government are over reaching -- just as we warned they would. They ALWAYS do it. It is some sort of compulsive behavior on the part of the democrats. It often leads to their downfall.

The democrats in our government have become so used to manipulation by the “man behind the curtain,” the “Shadow Government,” or whoever is pulling their strings, they appear to now believe their own prevarications. They live in a world created for them by those who “run” them, who “oversee” them, and they are completely cut off from those they THINK they represent. They are living an illusion.

The Democrat’s Grand Illusion, however, is dangerous for America. They believe the American people want a shepherd. Because their fellow democrats want a “Sugar Daddy,” they believe Americans, as a whole, want a “Sugar Daddy.” And worst of all they have convinced themselves that a benign dictator is best for America, and Obama, a seriously flawed narcissist, fits the bill. To make matters worse Obama believes it, too! As a result America, under the Obama Regime, is being ruled by an oligarchy of one – Obama!

America must be set aright this November. The Obama Regime has seen the handwriting on the wall and they have plans, already in the works, to stop conservative efforts to rescue America from their socialist clutches at the ballot box in the Mid-Term Elections this fall. If conservatives are not victorious, then Obama’s executive orders will be the least of our worries.

Is rule by military fiat next to teach us a lesson? Let’s not find out. The Obama Regime, and its Socialist/Marxist agenda, must be stopped if America is to survive.

US Borders to remain unsecured until Amnesty for illegal Aliens is approved?


US Borders to remain unsecured until Amnesty for illegal Aliens is approved?
A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet
****************
According to an article at Fox Nation (HERE.), that is what Arizona Senator Jon Kyle reported to an audience at a town Hall meeting where he spoke. The article goes on to say that Senator Kyl told the audience, at a tea party meeting, that the President, himself, told Kyl, in a face-to-face meeting in the Oval Office the he (Obama) feared the GOP would not support his “Comprehensive Immigration Reform” bill (Otherwise known as the Amnesty for illegal Aliens bill) bill if he secured the borders first.

According to Fox Nation, Kyl reported the President said: “The problem is, if we secure the border, then you all won't have any reason to support comprehensive immigration reform." Then Kyl went on to say: “In other words, they're holding it hostage." The report says there was an audible gasp from those present at the meeting when Kyl reported this bit of news.

Soon after Kyl’s remarks were made public, the White House denied the President had made such a statement. But Kyl’s office is standing by what the Senator said.

Kyl also says the President made it clear to him that the promise of those National Guard troops he promised to send to the southern border was a political tactic on his part, (The President) to help assure the passage of Obama’s comprehensive immigration Reform – AKA Amnesty for Illegal Aliens.

None of this should surprise anyone. This type of thuggery, and political blackmail, has become a hallmark of the Obama Regime. As we pointed out some months ago, the Obama regime is set-up to operate as a “political mafia” organizations taking their cues from the gang bosses of the early crime families in Chicago.

Well, the republicans had their Nixon, and now the democrats have their Obama and, as far as I can tell, there isn’t a dime’s worth of difference between the two presidential administrations.

If you recalled we warned you early on that the democrats would not be able to contain themselves and the lust for power. We warned often to expect the democrats to “overreach.” They do it every time they game the upper hand in the nation’s legislature and/or the White House. All one has to do is just observe the democratic leadership in the US House of Representatives, and in the US Senate and, of course, in the White House.

The Mainstream Media is playing right along as the
lead propagandists of the Obama Regime in an attempt to keep the US citizens distracted with all the many and varied crises sucking up all the ink from their publications and all the air time from their broadcasts.

And… to make matters even worse for those of us who oppose Amnesty, there has been a huge disconnect between the citizens of America and their representatives in the US House of Representatives and the US Senate. I must tell you, however, I now have doubts about that “disconnect.” I have come to believe that more than a “disconnect” it is a “deliberate distancing” of our national legislators from their constituents -- especially for those that follow in Obama’s footsteps and subscribe to his socialist dogma.

Well, We have said all along the problem with illegal immigration across our southern border could be fixed, almost immediately, if the government wanted it fixed. Now we know for certain that they do not want the southern border sealed. See, those are democratic voters coming across that invisible line headed north into the land of milk and honey and -- along side them on their northward trek -- is cheap labor!

As you can see with this latest revelation by Arizona’s Senator Kyl, the American people are at an impasse with their government.

So, what so we Americans do with a government that refuses to enforce America’s laws? The answer? Throw them out of office this November.

The Founders of America intended this country to be administered by a government that governed with “the consent of the people.” Clearly that is less and less the case as each recent election has shown.

It is time for Americans to reclaim their right to a government that responds to the wishes of the people by tossing out those who refuse. Their replacements would be well advised not to unpack their luggage to quickly upon their arrival in Washington, DC.

From Sea to Shining “Si”


From Sea to Shining “Si”
A commentary by J. D. Longstreet
**************

I WISH I had said it, but I did not. I mean the catchy phrase in the title of this piece. I heard a comedian use it recently and I thought then that it captures the condition America finds itself in today will illegal aliens from Mexico flooding into our country from across an unsecured, wide-open border between Mexico and the US.

Honestly, I don’t think the US government actually knows how many illegals we have living in the US. They keep tossing out the number of 12 million, or so. Well, that was the number used many years ago. Common sense dictates that there is many more than 12 million illegal aliens in the US today – if -- that number was correct when it was first used years ago.

Now The Obama Regime wants Congress to pass Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill. Yep! It’s the same song, third verse. When one translates the title of the bill into non-politically correct English one finds that it means AMNESTY!

Look, all Obama’s Comprehensive Immigration Reform will do is guarantee even more illegal aliens will come running across that border headed north into America. Why? Because they will have deduced that all they have to do is be INSIDE America when the NEXT AMNESTY is declared. And they are right!

America does not need a Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill. American simply needs to enforce its own immigration laws! As the state of Arizona is proving, enforcement of the law will lead to voluntary immigration southward -- back into Mexico and beyond.

The plain truth is – America’s borders will be secured the minute the US Government wants them secured and not before. That’s the problem. The government does not want the borders secured. In fact, just the opposite is true.

We have a government of Globalists, I am afraid. They are the folks who don’t believe in borders – at all. They are hard at work pushing world wide-open borders. See, they NEED open borders, or no borders at all, in order to realize their ultimate goal of global governance.

The end game is worldwide socialism. Marxists-Leninists have been preaching for years that America can be brought to heel and capitalism smothered to death through immigration. The idea is to flood capitalist/industrialized nations, such as the US, with low skilled, under educated, poverty strickened masses of immigrants, and use them as a tool to create civil unrest and eventually bring down capitalism and crush the constitutional republic of the US and replace it with socialism/communism.

Somehow, the Democratic Party in the US forged far ahead of the Globalists by installing a socialist government in America’s national legislature and in the office of the President.

Well, Americans have had a taste of socialism, thanks to the democrats, and, for the most part, they are sick of the incremental imposition of socialist slavery and want to be done with it by purging the Congress of as many Socialist/Globalists, Marxists, Maoists, Progressives, and as many pitiful guilt-ridden liberals as we possibly can in November.

Oh, and while we are at it, we need to search out those laboring, sub-rosa, for a North American Union and get rid of them as well.

Cry Treason! … by Alan Caruba

(Editor's Note)
Mr. Caruba has hit another out of the park! His column below explains the queasy feeling in the pit of the stomachs of a lot of Americans these days. Scroll down and read Alan's article. I think you will agree.

JDL

********************************
Cry Treason!
By Alan Caruba

*****************

Treason is generally defined as the offense of attempting to overthrow the government of one's country or of assisting its enemies in war. Benedict Arnold burned his name into U.S. history by conspiring with the British to turn over West Point to them. When his plot failed, he fled to England.
Having all formerly been traitors to the Crown, the framers of the Constitution defined treason narrowly. Historians tell us this was to lessen the possibility that those in power might falsely or loosely charge their political opponents with treason.

Article III, Section 3 of the Constitution says “Treason against the United States shall consist only in levying war against them, or adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort.”
Let it be said that probably all presidents have been called treasonous by their political opponents.

A growing body of popular opinion, however, is beginning to regard the actions of Barack Obama as treason because they coalesce into a pattern that suggests a deliberate effort to undermine national security and the economy. The liberties we take for granted, privacy, freedom of speech, and others are seen to be in jeopardy.
What is troubling to many was the way Obamacare was foisted on a nation that clearly opposed the takeover of one sixth of the economy. The political process by which passage was achieved was ugly, but it was not treason.

Now the Cap-and-Trade Act is being ushered hastily into the Senate for a vote despite widespread opposition to the fact that it is based on a total fraud, “climate change”, otherwise known as “global warming.” Can a law based on a lie be lawful? Is passing such a law treasonous?

The President’s displeasure with the Arizona law that mirrors almost word for word the federal law regarding illegal aliens presages a likely effort to grant amnesty to millions here illegally; a measure that is also widely opposed by the majority of Americans.

The hasty passage of any or all of these laws, now that the midterm elections loom in November, is completely legal, but they all represent a refusal to acknowledge the will of those in whom the Constitution posits ultimate power, the People.

The Tea Party movement, taking its name from an act of insurrection against the Crown, is ample evidence of the unrest among many Americans. The effort to smear members as racists or violent suggests the seriousness with which the White House takes the movement.

Given the virtual free hand any president has to determine foreign policy, he has consistently offended our allies and raised questions among them as to his judgment. That is not treason, but it is harmful when the U.S. needs to call upon them for support.

His actions regarding Iran have been a green light to continue their quest for nuclear weapons. His actions toward Israel are nothing less than astonishing given the long record of cooperation and mutual support that has existed since its founding.

Surrounding himself with White House staff, one of whom was an admitted communist, another who praised Mao Tse Sung, and still others whose views reflect bizarre “scientific” theories or proposals, raise questions and legitimate concerns regarding his true political philosophy, but it is not treason.

The takeover of General Motors, his firing of the company’s CEO, the disgraceful treatment of investors and creditors should have raised serious constitutional questions. When Harry Truman tried to take over the nation’s steel manufacturers, he was rebuffed by the Supreme Court. The U.S. retains an ownership position with AIG, the insurance company.

Obama’s attacks on insurance companies, pharmaceutical companies, even physicians, then migrated to attacks on Wall Street despite the fact that banks receiving TARP funds swiftly repaid the loans. There is at this point no aspect of life in America that has not been sharply criticized by the President.

None of this can be called treason under the strict and narrow definition of the Constitution, but taken together it is a pattern of acts that pose what many are coming to see as a clear and present danger to the nation.

The midterm elections in November represent the only constitutional means to rebuke the passage of legislation that has saddled the nation with greater debt than all previous administrations, with the takeover of key elements of the economy, and the prospect of the further erosion of our national security and sovereignty.

Everything that President Obama and the Democrat leaders in Congress have done has the sanction of law, but not the approval of the people whose lives will be affected by it.

It is not treason, but it has the look, the feel, and the smell of treason.

Obama’s Socialist Government Coming For Your Pension



Obama’s Socialist Government Coming For Your Pension.
A Commentary By J. D. Longstreet
************************************
Months ago we warned that Obama’s Socialist government would be coming after the American workers/retiree’s savings. We warned that our new “collectivists” government was going to seek some way of looting America’s retirement funds and simply taking that money for America’s new socialist government to use towards payment of the humongous debt the Obama Regime has run up with their host of socialist/marxist’ programs… including ObamaCare.

Many of you thought it was a stretch, and you didn’t believe us because, well, it was just TOO difficult to believe that your government, an AMERICAN government, would do that to it’s citizens.

What you didn’t take into account was… the Obama Regime is a SOCIALIST Regime! America is now a SOCIALIST COUNTRY!

We warmed you about ALL of this long before the election in 2008 and the majority of American voters either refused to believe they were voting for a socialist, or WANTED TO VOTE FOR A SOCIALIST! Either way, America wound up with a socialist government having already elected a socialist majority to run the US Senate and the US House of Representatives in 2006.

Well, dear American Electorate, you got what you voted for: Change – change from a constitutional republic and a capitalist economic system to a socialist/marxist government and a faltering capitalist economy headed for the doldrums because it cannot operate efficiently with overbearing government oversight and intrusion.

Wall street’s seeming resuscitation is momentary. Conservative pundits have been telling you for months to expect this uptick in the economy – before it nosedives again.

None of this comes as a surprise to us. We TOLD you it would happen. And now it has.

Now comes even more confirmation of our predictions concerning the government confiscation of your pension.

From Investor’s Business Dailey comes this: “Government Retirement: Democrats have obliquely admitted they covet Americans' pensions. Last week, congressional Republicans told them to stay away. The shame is that they had to do anything at all.

The first rumblings were heard in the 1990s, when Democrats were said to be coming after our retirement accounts. Back then, the warnings were easy to pass off as hyperbole or a cranky conspiracy theory. Today, they pass as prescient.

In January, Bloomberg reported the "U.S. Treasury and Labor Departments will ask for public comment as soon as next week on ways to promote the conversion of 401(k) savings and individual retirement accounts into annuities or other steady payment streams, according to Assistant Labor Secretary Phyllis C. Borzi and Deputy Assistant Treasury Secretary Mark Iwry."
Alarms went off. In February, former House Speaker New Gingrich and policy analyst Peter Ferrara warned in our "On The Right" column that "Washington is developing plans for your retirement savings."

"The idea," they said, "is for the government to take your retirement savings in return for a promise to pay you some monthly benefit in your retirement years.

"They will tell you that you are 'investing' your money. ... But they will use your money immediately to pay for their unprecedented trillion-dollar budget deficits, leaving nothing to back up their political promises, just as they have raided the Social Security trust funds."

Got your attention yet?

In the same article IBD reports the following: “Last week, Connie Hair wrote the following in Human Events about the Annual Report of the White House Task Force on the Middle Class released in February:

"The radical solution most favored by Big Labor is the seizure of private 401(k) plans for government disbursement — which lets them off the hook for their collapsing retirement scheme. And, of course, the Obama administration is eager to accommodate their buddies." (Read the entire article HERE.)

It IS coming – unless we stop them. The American socialist government IS going to redistribute America’s wealth. They are going to take it from those who worked their butts off to earn it and they are going to give it to those who did not -- for whatever reason. That is what socialists do. That is how socialists gain and maintain their power.

Someone once said: “When you rob Peter to pay Paul, you can always count on the support of Paul!” That is gospel truth, dear reader! The recipients of the seeming government largesse will go to the polls in tidal waves to protect their source of sustenance.

This coming November, if we want to save America and return her to a constitutional republic as the founders intended, we cannot sit on our butts and expect others to do the job for us. Because, dear reader, we are simply outnumbered. And -- if Amnesty For Illegal Aliens (Immigration Reform) is passed into law -- we will be even more outnumbered as they trample over each other to get to the polls to vote for those who made them citizens -- even though they are lawbreakers.
Look around you fellow Americans! Look at the cesspool America has become since the Obama Regime took office. Look back as far as the election of 2006 when the socialists were chosen to rule the Congress. There is clearly a red line drawn across the recent history of America that only a blind fool cannot see!

We must save America from the socialist menace. We owe it to the millions of Americans who have gone before us and given their lives to preserve the constitutional republic of our Founders. We owe it to our children and our grandchildren to hand an America, at least as good as the one we inherited from our parents, on to them.

Just as surely as Germany made a national mistake, which led to their destruction in the Second World War, we Americans have made a huge national mistake, which is leading us straight down the path to destruction. But, unlike the Germans, we have the power to correct that mistake -- if we move quickly. If we do not take advantage of the moment, we will soon find ourselves as helpless as the Germans of the last century and we, too, shall be destroyed.

Remember in November. We must rid ourselves of the albatross of an American Socialist Government hanging so heavily around our necks and purge our Congress of the Socialists, and Progressives, and Marxists now in power.

We have one chance at this – one chance to make this right. We must not fail.

From Tyrant to Tyrant

From Tyrant to Tyrant
Regain Freedom at the Ballot Box
A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet

*********************

Surely, you didn’t believe President Obama when he declared there would be drilling for oil off the east of America, did you? Nah! Say it ain’t so!

Look, the truth is – many Americans alive today will never receive the benefit from a single drop of oil pumped from beneath the seafloor off the coast of the Eastern US, including the waters of my beloved Carolina coast.

Always, always, read the fine print. When you do you will learn a simple truth. There will be years and years of studies and hearings and court cases to supposedly determine the feasibility of drilling in these just opened areas. Should those multiple studies, somehow, find it IS feasible, then the environmentalists will step in and begin the years of challenges in the courts. As I said, many of us will not live long enough to see one drop of oil from those “fantasy wells” some 100 miles, or so, off our coast.

The same goes for the promised Nuclear power plants, as well. It simply ain’t gonna happen.

So what is this all about? It is all about “Cap and Trade.” Unlike some folks believe, Obama has not given up, nor has he forgotten his beloved Cap and Trade Bill, which he intends to ram down the throats of Americans -- much as he did ObamaCare. The promises of drilling for oil off the east coast and the new nuclear power plants is nothing more than lubricant for the “shafting” Americans are, once more, about to receive from the Obama Regime and his cohort of socialists and Marxists in the White House and the Congress.

Face it, dear reader, Obama is ruling much as a dictator. A benign dictator? No. So far as this scribe is concerned, there is no such thing.

The limp-wristed liberals will declare Obama’s dictatorial actions are “tough love.” They will declare “it is all for our own good.” That is pure bovine scatology! Just keep THAT in mind when you are pumping 6 to 8 dollars a gallon gasoline into your car’s gas tank in a few months.

Americans don’/t much care for dictators – benign or otherwise. Our American ancestors fought a revolution to free themselves from a dictator, a tyrant, a king, a man who held their very lives in his hand. Americans freed themselves, wrote a constitution, and created a government called a constitutional republic in which the government could govern only with “the consent of the governed.” From the 18th to the 21st century Americans fought, bled, and died to ensure the preservation of this republic. Then in 2006 and 2008, we gave it away – at the ballot box, no less!

Americans made a grave error. In the space of 5 years America’s current government has taken America from a constitutional republic to a strong, socialist, central government.

It is time to get real. It is time to focus on the things that matter in America -- and to Americans. If America is to survive ObamaCare must be repealed. Obama’s Cap and Trade Bill must be defeated, or repealed, and we Americans must retake our government, at the ballot box, and secure it from such threats as socialism, Marxism, communism and, yes, progressivism.

You have heard it said -- and read it as well, that the coming election in November, just 7 months from now, will be the most important election in the history of America. It is not an overstatement. It CANNOT BE OVERSTATED! Either America returns to the constitution’s way of government and preserves its freedom, or we will continue deeper and deeper, straight into the bowels of a socialist, and finally, a communist hellhole.

Remember in November – and vote for freedom.

The Election That Never Was


The Election That Never Was
Will Obama Suspend the Mid Term Election?
A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet

******************

More and more politics watchers are coming around to the conclusion that the scheduled Mid-Term Election in November of 2010 will be a political bloodbath for the Democratic Party. It is beginning to appear as if the democrats may, indeed, lose control of BOTH houses of the Congress. As a conservative I can only hope and pray they do.

But – the democrats lust for power is so great and their zeal for socialism so intense, that I cannot see them allowing their hold on power to be placed in jeopardy by, of all things, an election where the voice of the people is actually heard.

So, the question must be asked: Will Obama and the socialist/democrats in our government suspend, postpone, or “call-off” the Mid Term Election scheduled for this coming November?

First we must remember that Obama promised during the presidential campaign to bring “Fundamental Change” to the United States. I do not believe a person alive in America today could doubt his sincerity when he said that. Plus, the evidence of that fundamental change is right before our eyes, and in our wallets. In less than eighteen months the Obama Regime has managed to take America from a constitutional republic to a socialist republic. That accomplishment alone should give you reason enough to suspect that when their power is threatened they will use the full force of the Central Government to ruthlessly crush any and all who they perceive as a threat. At this moment in history, a threat is anyone, any American, who does not agree with them.

What the Obama Regime needs is a national crisis of some kind, a national emergency, in order to suspend the election in November. There is much talk about the Obama Regime declaring marital law as the result of a national emergency. That would take care of the election.

Next question: Who decides what a national emergency is? You’ve got it -- the Obama Regime!

Ok. So now I am worried about a natural disaster such as a major hurricane striking the Eastern Seaboard this summer or this fall. As all of us who live in Hurricane Alley will attest, we know from experience that we are due a major strike.

All right, already! I KNOW this all sounds paranoid as the dickens! But understand this: A little paranoia in the face of danger can save your butt! Lord knows -- we are starring danger in the face every day the Obama Regime enjoys in power.

Will there actually be a Mid Term Election this year? I honesty wish I could answer affirmatively, but I fear the raw power on which the democrats are drunk may decide that for us. Understand this: there is nothing as dangerous to freedom in the US as a Progressive (Socialist) Democratic Party inebriated on raw power.

I can say this: The American people are a patient people. We will put up with a lot of nonsense from our government – for a while. But we draw the line when that government ignores the constitution, as the Obama Regime and the Democrats in the Congress have done. There is a seething rage in America today. It has cut to the quick many a patriotic American’s soul. There is a tidal wave of unrequited anger, roiled up and posed, ready to fling itself at a government it sees as a threat to America’s freedom and liberty. Woe be unto him who is caught in the deluge.

Look, some of us have a knack, a talent, a curse, call it what you will, of sensing huge changes around us well before they actually occur.

During the past few months I have sensed a change in the American atmosphere. Where there was anger, there is now rage. Believe me, there is a HUGE difference between anger and rage. Both are great motivators. but motivation by anger can be considered and well thought out. On the other hand, motivation by rage (or outrage) is often not well considered and thought out. It is more akin to lashing out, and is, therefore, to be avoided when it is possible.

But, my senses tell me it is too late to avoid the “lashing out” Americans are about to unleash.

Why do I even bring this up? I bring this up because -- at this very moment that tidal wave of anger and outrage is damed up, increasing in power and intensity, waiting, just waiting, for an incident that will knock the chocks from the dam wall holding back the cascade. Postponing, or suspending, the Mid-Term Election, currently scheduled for this coming November, would be the spark that ignites a firestorm that will consume all in its path.

But those in our nations legislature, intoxicated on their acquisition of more and more raw power, haven’t seemed to notice the shadow of liberty loving Americans looming over them as they celebrate.

Elections are a sort of safety valve in America. Without a safety valve to release unwanted pressure a boiler would soon explode. This coming Mid Term Election, in November, is one of the most important safety valves ever to exist. Shut it, remove it, or disable it, and believe me, the boiler will explode with unimaginable force.

If America was one huge computer, we could simply “reboot.” Of course we cannot do that – but many are saying we CAN “reset.” That is the aim of Americans in the coming Mid Term Election.

The federal government MUST be brought back under the control of the citizens and limited to only that power, and those particular powers, granted by the US Constitution. If Americans can accomplish that -- then most everything else can readily be taken care of -- and a return to constitutional republicanism in America restored.

I don’t even want to think about what will happen if we are unsuccessful in saving and restoring America at the ballot box in November. It MUST happen if America is to survive.

Remember in November!
