I was trying to think today of some facet of our lives that has not been wrecked or manipulated in some way be the Obama's and their communist / fascist / statist administration. If you can think of something, please tell me.
Categories that have been taken over and adversely affected by the federal government under the Obama administration:
Transportation
Energy
Healthcare
Food / Farming
Housing
Banking / Monetary Policy
Land Use / Resources
Media / Communications
Marriage
Religion
Education
Business / Capitalism
Labor / Trade
Travel / TSA
In every one of those categories of American life, Obama and his minions have reached in and grabbed power to manipulate, force, co-opt, and tax. Probably more that I can't think of at this moment. And has any of this changed America for the better? Again, I can't think of anything. Not one thing. Prices continue to escalate. Unemployment is no better, if not worse in a most places. In the town I live in, unemployment is 11.6%. Tax revenues are down. County schools are scrambling to find money. Small businesses have closed, fled, or barely making it. People are on hold. Their choices more limited. Life is less hopeful. There is a pall in the air, an undercurrent of worry and darkness. I hear this and see this in the middle class around me, more than any other time in my life. People are going through the motions. Waiting and watching.
Which was the point after all. Obama was intending to destroy the middle class from the very beginning. That is what communists do.
The news media here talks of money being spent in Charlotte, NC, twenty miles away, for the coming Democrat convention at the end of the summer. Money for security. The city council has passed ordinances to tamp down any possible demonstrations that could disrupt the show. The bill just passed to stifle demonstrations was, I believe, intended for this purpose as well. The circus is coming. The circus known as Barack Hussein Obama. I dread it already. In fact, I have had a feeling of dread since 2008 when this circus began in earnest.
So what is better now, America? Anything? Are blacks any happier? Is anyone? The communist / fascist / statist left is not happier. All I read and hear is more griping and yelling about how they want more. Never enough for communists. In fact they seem even more angry than before the Obama election, if that is possible. Other than the favored corporate and banking industries, who is thriving? And are even they happier? It doesn't seem so. No one seems happy, hopeful, or eager for the future.
So what's left untouched by this darkness? Anything?

I'LL MAKE UP MY OWN MIND, THANK YOU VERY MUCH - "THOUGHT LEADERS"
I write this blog to discuss my opinions, but also to share the facts that brought me to those opinions. I hope you read the facts and my opinions, BUT I hope you use your own brain to come to your own opinions. I am of the belief that people just really need some facts to go on. In this day and age with so much disinformation going around, it is harder and harder to find truth and facts. That is what motivated me to write this blog, to share truth and facts and share my opinions.
Of late I am seeing a job title that I swear came right off the pages of George Orwell's "1984." It is "Thought Leader." Really. Really? Yes, really. I guess this job title has been percolating for a while now, since I am seeing articles as far back as 2003. But really?
Here is an article on 6 Ways to Establish Yourself as an Industry Thought Leader
(I suddenly had to laugh... thinking about something my mother used to say about "too many chiefs and not enough indians.")
O.K., so where did this "Thought Leadership" idea come from? Marketing, that's where. "Thought Leadership" is no more than selling a brand. I especially found this blog amusing on the subject. There you can find out there is a "Thought Leadership" Seminar at Columbia. I probably missed it. Hmmmm.
Here is a good one from Fortune Magazine who advertizes this:
All those government officials gathering together with world business leaders and "Thought Leaders".....somehow that does not make me too terribly comfortable. There comes a point when too much input from too many people becomes a chaotic cacophony of nonsensical blathering. The loudest or the squeakiest wheel is going to get the most attention. This is why America was founded on allowing individuals to make their own decisions and lead their lives without tyrannical force, so "Thought Leaders" would leave us alone. Now we are generating a collection of "Thought Leaders," who have nothing else in mind but trying to tell you how and what to think?
Another funny thing about this "Thought Leadership" business is this: Everywhere I look I see the same thoughts. There is a veritable consensus of "thought" on the latest trends, sustainability in everything, global citizenship, social values and responsibility, environmental ethics, green economics, and "smart" anything. I find it quite mind numbing that the popular "Thought Leaders" of the day are all saying the same things. By the time everyone is inundated with the drip drip drip of the same thoughts and philosophies, whose brain is even trying to think for itself? Why bother? The "Thought Leaders" have done all of the thinking for you.
So whose thoughts are "Thought Leaders" leading? Can you think for yourself? If you read my blog, I hope you are thinking for yourself, but taking in enough factual truth to facilitate your thinking. Don't just read my writings, but read all you need to in order to form an educated opinion. Beware of "garbage in, garbage out.
As we have seen throughout history, "Thought Leaders" can be very dangerous to the rest of the human population. Marx's thoughts have already translated into millions of deaths. Now we are seeing Marxist methods and ideas permeating our entire nation. It is very clever that Marx's ideas are being marketed so adeptly by "Thought Leaders" who have learned to rename and package the entire doctrine under such cozy and warm sounding words.
Oh, here's one I just read:

SEE NO EVIL, HEAR NO EVIL, SPEAK NO EVIL - THE REPUBLICAN CLUB
That title assuredly is a simplistic statement to all of us who are following the economic rape of our representative government. Where are the voices of freedom in our political arena? The Tea Party across the nation is doing the talking. Few in elected office are speaking up for freedom. Why?
Who is funding communist policies in this country? How is that allowed? Maybe I should ask, who turned away from their constituents and stole their money and their freedoms at the same time? Who sold us out? I am speaking here mostly regarding the Republican Party. I guess I could refer to Ronald Reagan who said something about never speaking ill of a fellow Republican. Boy, has that come back to haunt us in a very bad way.
I write this because I am seeing what I hoped I would not see. Twice in the last two weeks I've been told by a politician that they don't want to speak out about the errant ideologies of other candidates because, "I will have to work with whomever wins the election." Say what? Excuse me? Both of these elected officials are in office today, and are on the ballots. This was especially aimed at other political candidates who are in the same party affiliation.
Once elected, there is a silence of club membership. New candidates, still outside of that club, seem free to condemn the policies of other candidates. But once in office, the game changes. This is like a "blood is thicker than water" mentality. Once you're in, you're in. Doesn't seem to matter which part of the legislature, the "code of silence" applies. Never speak ill of another legislator. You never know when you might want a favor.
This code doesn't seem to apply to the Democrats who take no prisoners. The left misses no opportunity to smear, denigrate, slander, and run to the media with every hateful lie they can yell at the top of their lungs. Should a Republican stand up for the Constitution or freedom, the left starts whining and screaming, calling by name, and making outlandish and ridiculous accusations. But if someone on the right in the Republican Party cooperates with the Democrats and sells out the principles of our Constitution, where is the outcry from the Republicans? The silence is deafening.
This is how the RINO's have gotten away with selling us out. Other Republicans looking the other way. Ignoring the voices of the people. Republicans ignoring, even supporting, the leftist Marxist policies ever being stuffed down our throats. The Republican Club is a great big part of the problems we face today.
Notice the marginalization of Blue Dog Democrats. Then, notice the silence from the Republicans regarding Olympia Snowe (who finally is getting out) or Susan Collins or Lindsay Graham...or Upton who is still in Congress after co-sponsoring the bill to ban incandescent light bulbs. (Richard Burr co-sponsoring the Food Safety Modernization Act) (Sue Myrick, now bowing out, but voted for the Cash For Clunkers program) On and on....
Occasionally there is a break in this pattern. Newt Gingrich represents a break in the code of silence. He managed to get a lot of conservative legislation passed under a Democrat president. And look what happened to him....unfounded accusations that forced him out. He apparently is not part of the "Republican Club." Heaven knows Republicans have gone to great lengths to try to throw him out of this election. Romney is part of the Republican Club. Santorum seems on the edge...walking both sides of the issues between his record and his rhetoric. Gingrich, however, sticks to the more conservative ideas and the Constitution. His policy recommendations are aimed at cleaning up the corruption, dismantling leftist legislations and agencies, impeaching errant judges, setting us on a course for energy abundance, and more. Shouted down. Ridiculed. By Republicans. Do you wonder why?
Washington Times article Jan. 2012
"It’s no secret that the GOP establishment backs Mitt Romney. The same folks who gave us John McCain and Bob Dole have picked their winner. When Mr. Romney is down, their panic shows. They start floating desperate ideas like late-entry candidates or a brokered convention. They also pull out the long knives for Newt Gingrich. After the former speaker’s decisive victory in South Carolina, insiders launched an all-out assault upon him. Unmasked and panicked, the GOP establishment unleashed the tactics of the left upon the right.
GOP insiders first dredged up 2-decade-old debunked partisan ethics charges that damaged Mr. Gingrich’s reputation until the Internal Revenue Service finally exonerated him."
I guess I'm stating the obvious. The Republican Party is corrupt. The Democrat Party is more corrupt. But, I think the Republican Party is why the Tea Party exists. The Republican Party is not fighting back against the left. Newt Gingrich is...and look what happens to him. (Andrew Breitbart was..and look what happened to him. Sarah Palin does...and look what happens to her.)
It's time to See the Evil, Hear the Evil, and Speak Against the Evil to both parties. If they aren't listening it is because we aren't speaking loud enough or voting our principles in large enough numbers to finally make the corruption go away. The Republican Club isn't paying enough attention. In fact, the Republican Club is trying to marginalize the Tea Party in the same way the Democrat Club has marginalized the Blue Dogs. Newt Gingrich is giving the Tea Party a voice. The Republican Party is not.
"See Evil, Hear Evil, and Speak Evil" of those who deserve it and must be voted out. It is our obligation IF we are going to start taking the country back.
(caveat to all of my Ron Paul loving friends: He is tolerated, but not taken seriously enough by the Republicans to garner the kind of serious debasing attention that Gingrich has gotten.)

OBAMA'S ADOLESCENT COUNTRY
As the Obama presidency has dragged on for what seems interminable time, it occurs to me that he is a man in some different country I do not recognize. His and his administration's policies are so anti-Constitutional as a general matter, that I wonder just in what country does Barack Obama think he is. I could list all of the executive orders and Czars, the agency regulations, the Democrat bills he has signed, and the matter of attacks against Christianity, the foreign and military policies, etc., but most everyone reading this blog knows what they are and at this point it is almost too crushing to even go back over them all. Suffice it to say, I don't think Obama gets up on any one day of his life and says he wants to uphold the United States Constitution for the American people.
The Obama show came to Mt. Holly, NC this week, a town about 8 miles from where I live. The local Democrat operatives were all a dither putting together as many smiling sycophants for his visit as they could. They made sure only certain Democrats with certain credentials had personal moments with him. (While Obama's credentials are still in doubt, by the way.) His ear is only available to those who prop up his agenda, which at this point could be described as a hybrid of socialism, fascism, dictatorship, and crony capitalism. The show in Mt. Holly was to excite the people about a few hundred jobs at a Daimler-Benz truck plant where thousands used to work. The plant is all union labor, of course. Obama made hay out of hybrid trucks and green energy again, the green energy that is putting us into debtors prison. (Actually, if he could make hay, he would be worth more as a human being than he is now.) The local newspaper has printed several pages of pictures of happy Obama followers and Obama smiling and hugging them. One woman said she felt the "spirit of the Lord" come over her as she swooned and fainted. Really. That is what she said. I thought about the adolescent adoration of rock star fans for charismatic musicians. I wonder who are these people who appear to be adults, but are so easily returned to adolescent displays on the sight of this elected official? Old enough to vote, but unable to grow up.
"The 5000 Leap" is a book that describes how the genius of ages past managed to culminate in the great minds of the Founders of America. The founding of America is owed to great and learned men who studied history and realized the failures of tyrannies and monarchies over centuries. The "leap" was to allow people to rule themselves with as much freedom as possible. The assumption was that man had finally reached some level of moral refinement and knowledge that would prevail over stupidity. Maybe that was too much of a "leap." Now we have a country of men and women who are proving themselves unworthy of self-rule, and even worse than that, are swooning at the sight of a man who wishes to be dictator of their lives.
The Sandra Fluke testimony to Congress demanding all Americans pay for Georgetown coeds' contraceptives is the perfect example of Obama's country of adolescents. She is thirty years old but wants you to pay for her sexual and /or women's sexual decisions. (The same people who say they want government out of their bedrooms want you to pay for their sexual activities. I can never figure that one out.)
Our nation is being led by an immature, illogical, emotionally hysterical, historically illiterate rock star and his fans. That is Obama's country. He's enjoying every minute of it, I might add. When the adolescents are through wrecking the place, some adults are going to be kept busy for decades trying to clean up the disaster that is Obama's country. If we are lucky. Meanwhile, swooning continues......

SOME APOLOGIES ARE NOT WARRANTED
When people prostitute themselves, for any reason what do you call it? You can use the euphemism of "selling out" or "selling their soul." I ask the question because it seems to me that Rush Limbaugh used the correct words in describing Sandra Fluke. I think she is a prostitute of the left, the socialist machine. She's a slut for them. (I use the words interchangeably.) She did Nancy Pelosi's bidding. Yep, I said it. I'm using the same derogatory words that people are so riled up about and that Rush is now apologizing for using.
Now you might say that because this Fluke woman is a hard core leftist, she actually isn't selling her soul, but has put her socialist soul out there to sell her beliefs. But in the process, she is selling out her womanhood and her nation. She is using her "talents," whatever they are, to sell a Marxist ideology to the public. So I still think she is a prostitute for the left. Frankly, I think all of the left deserves the derogatory word of prostitute. That is what they do. They prostitute everything. Here is definition #2 from Merriam Webster:
Ms. Fluke proposed in her testimony to Congress that the rest of the country should pay for her own and others' contraceptive devices or pharmaceuticals. Her own statements about sexual activity by coeds at university, either others or her own, were shocking to those who live by moral sexual codes. I also think the words of describing her, prostitute and slut, were mild compared to what the left is throwing around out there every day at our society.
So what happens to a person who dares to speak out against the left? I read today that Rush has lost 7 advertisers because of the socialist machine going after him. Breitbart is dead. Rush will replace the corrupt advertisers who also sold their souls to the leftist smear machine. (At least I pray so.) Breitbart is still dead. But his words live on and the rest of us will do what we can to carry forth without him. The Democrat machine rolls on.
The Democrat Party is full of prostitutes. All for Marxism using Alinsky methods. I'm sorry Rush has felt it necessary to apologize. I don't believe it was necessary, but I defer to his judgment. I'm sure he has done what he feels he needs to do to restore his integrity that he feels was diminished by calling someone exactly what they are. Political correctness, as defined by the left, has smashed the English language to bits. The English language has been prostituted by people who don't want common language to bind us together. The word "prostitute" was correct. I think Rush could have used it to describe the fact that the Fluke woman was a Democrat operative and a shill for a corrupt cause. Instead he used it to describe promiscuous sexual activity...which, if you take her at her word (wanting the American public to pay for her sex life), Ms. Fluke fits that definition as well.
That's my take on the flap with Rush today. I think apologies were not warranted.

DEFENDING THE TRUTH - THANK YOU RUSH LIMBAUGH
If you are interested in seeing how spoiled brats operate, you should go to the ProFlowers facebook page and look at the nasty hate being spewed there toward Rush Limbaugh. If you wish to support Rush Limbaugh, you can comment on that facebook page. The leftists go into apoplexy when someone speaks truth to them and shows them how absurd they are. They throw mud like you can't even believe. Of course this past week, the mud is being thrown at Limbaugh who actually made fun of and got to the heart of their debauched and twisted version of how this country should be. You know by the loudness and crassness of the leftists' tantrums that Rush hit straight into the crux of their communist playbook.
Whether Fluke was speaking of her own sex life or the sex life of the average coed at Georgetown, the picture she painted was completely ridiculous. The very idea that some woman can afford to go to a $45,000 per year university, but at the age of 30 yrs. cannot assume the responsibility for accessing and paying for her own birth control is, just on the face of it, one of the most idiotic things I've heard lately. And then, the idea that the rest of the working people in this nation should be forced to pay for a coed's contraception....the very idea is such a poster child for moral deficiency that one wonders what sort of "law" they are teaching at Georgetown. Actually, I take that back. It is obvious what sort of "law" they are teaching and it is not American Constitutional law.
Here is some more from the ongoing controversy after Obama jumped in, making a phone call to Fluke to wrap his communist arms around his flunkie for doing his great work:
Limbaugh remained unflappable Friday despite the growing controversy that has caused at least one advertiser to pull funding from his nationally-syndicated show; the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has created an anti-Limbaugh petition.
"That is so compassionate! What a great guy," Limbaugh chided Obama on his radio show today. "The president called her to make sure she's OK. What is she, 30 years old? Thirty years old, a student at Georgetown law who admits to having so much sex that she can't afford it anymore," Limbaugh continued.
"And, thus, a new welfare entitlement must be created so that society will pay for it," Limbaugh said, adding that, "all of a sudden we're told that people who want to have sex without consequence, sex with no responsibility, and we have pay for it! We're told we have to pay for it — and if we object, that somehow we're Neanderthal."
The 30 yr. old Fluke woman has done a lot to make women and the country look bad. She made it seem as if every unmarried young woman in this country is hell-bound to conduct promiscuous theft....and yes, I mean theft. Theft, this time, based on sexual practices. You could look at it as extortion, i.e. if you don't pay for the contraception of coeds, you are a heartless, cruel and disgusting, selfish, pig.
Rush did not go too far, but dared to call them out on the obscene insanity of having the rest of the nation pay for "free" contraceptives so that Georgetown college students can live out the "free sex" doctrine of the 1960's commie left. Rush's humorous discussion on the outrage of this was welcome to my ears. He turned their assertions into the joke that they are...and that is exactly what was needed. We are in the mess we are in because so few have done what Rush has done...and that is stand up and speak to the absurdity of what the left proposes. I'm with Rush...and Andrew Breitbart on this. And who is surprised when the leftists start screaming and yelling when you speak truth to them...they are like brats throwing temper tantrums. You only let them have their way by capitulating to their loud and ugly slanderous accusations.
..... “Not only can you take assaults, you can weather them and be strengthened by them — and gain the power to punch back, to go onto the offensive. Our opponents have spent so many years on the offensive with people lying prone at their feet that they’ve forgotten what it’s like to be on the defensive. If we come after them, they won’t know how to respond.”

RIP and God Bless you Andrew Breitbart. And thanks be to God for Rush Limbaugh.
Whether Fluke was speaking of her own sex life or the sex life of the average coed at Georgetown, the picture she painted was completely ridiculous. The very idea that some woman can afford to go to a $45,000 per year university, but at the age of 30 yrs. cannot assume the responsibility for accessing and paying for her own birth control is, just on the face of it, one of the most idiotic things I've heard lately. And then, the idea that the rest of the working people in this nation should be forced to pay for a coed's contraception....the very idea is such a poster child for moral deficiency that one wonders what sort of "law" they are teaching at Georgetown. Actually, I take that back. It is obvious what sort of "law" they are teaching and it is not American Constitutional law.

SHOCK AND DISBELIEF - ANDREW BREITBART 1969-2012
The last time I saw Andrew Breitbart I was watching CPAC while I was making dinner in my kitchen. As I was listening to him speak, I was compelled to stop everything I was doing and put my face right in front of the tv just to catch his passionate enthusiasm and his message. I was spellbound. I was excited. I was grateful. I was almost delirious to hear the pep talk he was giving to those of us who are trying to get the truth out there. And on that score, he did more than most. He embodied the best of what journalism is supposed to be.
I'm still in shock. I cannot believe what I am seeing this morning. I can't believe this man died of natural causes at the age of 43. I am just dumbstruck in shock.
So go to Big Government, Big Hollywood, Big Journalism and stop by for a minute to say a prayer for a great man who gave us gumption. I have had those Breitbart sites linked on the sidebar of my blog ever since he created them. I pray his mission will be carried forth. His inspiration will last for those of us who admired him and keep on working to expose the left.
Adding this quote from Andrew here:
“Not only can you take assaults, you can weather them and be strengthened by them — and gain the power to punch back, to go onto the offensive. Our opponents have spent so many years on the offensive with people lying prone at their feet that they’ve forgotten what it’s like to be on the defensive. If we come after them, they won’t know how to respond.”
