Well; the GOP are serving Kool-Aid with their excrement sandwiches these days. The country is going down the proverbial tube while these ignoramuses completely ignore this calamity. Being content to avoid the true issues at hand they are now throwing dirt instead of facing the real problems in America. Every conservative (quasi) web site that I visit offers the latest mud sandwich for their bylines. What should be the real story displayed on these news sites? Shouldn’t there be a concerted effort to change or solve the financial problems facing America and the world? Shouldn’t there be some concerted effort to get the government back into the Constitutional framework it was designed in? It seems that these issues are irrelevant and dirt throwing is of primary importance instead. While this country is being destroyed before our eyes the most important thing to these media provocateurs is dirty politics.

The GOP fielded two loser candidates for their selections.  These two are bottom of the barrel selections all things considered. What is their actual stand on the issues at hand and how would they deal with the problems facing America? Do they still believe the Constitution and the Bill of Rights is relevant for our time? Where would they govern from and what would be their plan for America? On one side of this political campaign a truth is spoken and on the other side it is called a lie! Where is the proof of the lie (s)? On one side you know the candidates are liberals, while on the other side you are not sure where they stand, but you do know this, they are not conservatives. So, the GOP ostentates the candidates as the conservative choices for America, all the while knowing this is in all reality, untrue.  These two are to the left of Moderate which is now the GOP propensities so it seems. The GOP is now moderate to semi-liberal. Actually the whole government is going (perhaps already there) in the direction of Karl Marx and his socialism framework for government. The big “Bail Out” seals the ideology and implementation of Marxism completely.

The issues at hand are not the issues at hand. When I look at the GOP field many things comes to mind, mostly from my religious background and current Biblical beliefs. On Palin; Proverbs 30:20 “So is the way of an adulterous woman: she eats, and wipes her mouth, and says, I have done no evil.” Proverbs 6:13 ‘That winks with his eyes…That makes signs with his fingers.”  Palin is an adulterous woman who thinks that she has done nothing evil, who winks with the eye, and makes signs with the fingers. Did you watch her body language at any time? Did you see her on the debate? Did you see the follow-up picture in the news the next day? There she was winking and pointing that finger! Need I say more? Do you know what you are looking at? And the real problem with this poser is the haunting question; “Are You Smarter than a Fifth Grader?” And the resounding answer to that is—NO!   All of the questions she answered were rehearsed by coaches assigned to her utilizing see Jane run see Dick run techniques. Remember the ones we used in first grade to remember our lessons by continuous rote? Anyway, keep drinking that GOP Kool-Aid, hold hands and sing, Kumbayah! While America crashes!

Someone's sleeping, Yah, kumbaya

Someone's sleeping, Yah, kumbaya

Someone's sleeping, Yah, kumbaya

Oh Yah, kumbaya

Oh Yah, kumbaya

So many individuals that pump up their resume to seem better qualified than they actually are, can usually be found in academic circles, but now we have an example in the presidential race, Palin. Inflated curriculum vitae are the nemesis among College Professors, especially when discovered, as is plagiarism among their students. Plagiarism is cause for immediate suspension for students from the better colleges.   College Professors can dance around this mendacity if they have tenure or an enabling college Dean.   Also, this amplified qualification of job experience (s) can be seen in job application resumes. And because this is so extant, many companies perform an entire background check for verification of applicant statements on their resumes. In some circles this is known as vetting or examining carefully the person’s entire life. Someone failed to completely vet Sarah Palin before she was nominated for the McCain VP selection. 

In a closer examination of a gross exaggeration of Palin’s foreign policy experience, Palin led listeners to believe a prevarication concerning her actual experience and duties as Governor of Alaska.  The following was reported in the news after her interview with Katie Couric.

NORAD: Sarah Palin has no role in guarding U.S. airspace despite claims in Katie Couric interview

BY JAMES GORDON MEEK

DAILY NEWS WASHINGTON BUREAU

WASHINGTON - When Russian bombers approach American airspace and U.S. Air Force fighters are scrambled, Sarah Palin's phone doesn't ring.

The Alaska governor has no command authority over the guardians of U.S. airspace despite her recent suggestion otherwise.

"She doesn't have any role in that process," Air Force Maj. Allen Herritage, spokesman for the Alaska North American Aerospace Defense Command, told the Daily News.

"The authority to launch and respond to a Russian incursion lies with the Alaska NORAD Region commander" - Air Force Lt. Gen. Dana Atkins, he said.

Palin said last week that her foreign policy experience includes facing the Russians.

"It's very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia, as Putin rears his head and comes into the airspace of the United States of America - where do they go? It's Alaska," Palin told CBS' Katie Couric.

So, why is the media giving little miss falsehood a pass on this? Why was this overlooked in the vetting process? Maybe she wasn’t completely vetted! Maybe she is in all reality unqualified for this VP selection! This is only one of many mendacities committed by Sarah Palin et al. There seems to be a plethora of willing accomplices to enable this poser. Other things that have come to light while others perform the vetting process that should have been accomplished pre-Palin selection are turning up some startling things. The GOP parades itself as a conservative moral party. They seek the endorsement of the Evangelicals every election cycle. The religious right wants a good morally clean candidate that they can endorse and be conscience free concerning their choice. However, is Palin that choice? Is McCain that choice? They are if you don’t mind an adulterous behavior pattern displayed by both candidates and confessed by one, McCain. Palin has yet to pony up on her adulterous relationship with Brad Hanson. Investigative reporters doing the job that McCain’s vetters should have, revealed plenty about this Alaska first family. 

Uncovered in this family were several things that seriously challenge the decision for VP candidate selection. Because this is the GOP (quasi) the disturbing family revelations includes serious drug use (cocaine, marijuana, OxyContin) and abuse by the Palin’s older children Track and Bristol. Sexual promiscuity of the daughter Bristol and the oldest son Track leading to the pregnancy of the unwed daughter Bristol. However, as the Palin’s lead by example their dysfunctional family; consider for a moment the consequences of her being in the office of the VP? Is the GOP serious about this tainted selection?   Why did it take a team of investigative reporters to track down and reveal this family for what they really are-dysfunctional? Incidentally, one of the witnesses that testified concerning Sarah Palin’s adulterous relationship with her husband’s business partner passed a lie detector test, and another witness provided a sworn affidavit attesting to the Palin-Hanson story! And, this is the same group of people that ran the John Edward’s adulterous affair to the ground and forced Edwards to confess to his affair with someone outside of his marriage! And you want this kind of flawed unlawful person as your VP? What are you thinking?

So it boils down to this! If you want mendacity as your guideline and example for your children and grandchildren, vote the GOP ticket. However, this years Democratic candidates have not engaged in any known (and they checked) sexual liaisons or inordinate behaviors. However, they are the liberal party so you know their politics. But; that doesn’t seem to matter this year as the GOP has now adopted the Karl Marx social doctrine and solution for the financial catastrophe the country is currently in. Your choices are…not so good this election cycle. Maybe none of the above would be the best choice!   And if there is no merit to the Palin-Hanson affair, why did Palin’s husband dissolve their business relationship and become estranged from his former business partner? In criminology this would be considered suspicious behavior and a follow-up would be conducted by investigators to arrive at the truth. So, where are the investigators, the truth seekers? Are you afraid to seriously vet McCain and Palin, or are you content to drink that GOP Kool-Aid?  Pity the fool as Mr. T used to say!

Michael:

This is one of the major reasons I named my blog "Mac's Between The Eyes." The pointed commentary is designed to reveal stark contrasts and relevant issues. Yes, I believe in the life of the fetus and the Creator’s design at conception. I also believe that anyone, I repeat anyone that takes the life of a fetus via abortion or perpetrates violence upon the mother that causes an abortion, is guilty of first degree murder. These liquidators of innocent lives are morally reprehensible, and should be charged and tried for their homicidal acts. 

What I was illustrating in my post (Abortion and Stare Decisis) was stare decisis and the improbability of overturning Roe v Wade anytime soon. This decision is bad law in every sense of the demented ruling. And, my comments on Limbaugh, Warren, et al goes to credibility of these people in general. They start out on one path and end up walking on another. They shift their positions and allegiances when it suits them to do so; Limbaugh on supporting the GOP (on not carrying their water anymore) et al, and Warren for the false prophet that he is. What is the common denominator between them? Money! I haven’t missed anything on either Limbaugh or Warren as you postulate. Both have changed their original positions from their inceptions. So this is really moot in every sense to engage in any argument with you or anyone else that cannot see what is really happening before their eyes. Some things Michael you just cannot change and they will get worse before they get better. 

Michael, I have seven children and fifteen grandchildren, and I love them all. Michael, I am a realist. Moral issue (s)?  Michael I am an ordained minister that firmly believes in what the Bible teaches concerning life. Above his pay grade is euphemistically spoken I would assume. Perhaps he was alluding to his incapability to actually change this abhorrent legislation. Note; I am not making excuses for this person. The President cannot make law or adjudicate law. The Executive Branch as distinguished from the legislative and judicial departments (i.e. branches) of government, the executive department is that which is charged with the detail of carrying the laws into effect and securing their due observance.  The point of this blog post was the legal issue that cannot be changed because of Roe v Wade (1973) and Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania et al. v. Casey, Governor of Pennsylvania, and et al. No. 91- 744. Argued April 22, 1992 -- Decided June 29, 1992. Rarely does the Supreme Court overturn decisions of stare decisis.  

What is occurring in America's governmental system today is not what the architects of the Declaration of Independence had in mind. After reading Chuck Norris's column in World Net Daily, I must concur with the object and scope of his column. However, I would take his concept of "The Coming Revolution" one step farther. When we read what the framers of America had in mind based on previous experience with tyrannical governments, we can truly understand their concept of freedom; freedom that was given not by man, but endowed by the Creator on the entire human race. What these brave men and women fought for is now being discarded by egotistical government officials propelled by avarice and their desire for absolute power. Power that will perpetrate on the peoples severe bondage, physical and financial! These incalcitrant individuals reject the concepts delineated in the Declaration of Independence and subsequently, the Constitution! We need to read a section of the Declaration to comprehend fully their (the framers of these foundational documents) direction and reasons for inclusion.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. - That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, - That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security." (Declaration of Independence)

When we analyze this paragraph in the light of today's government misconduct, it becomes more apparent that change must come albeit revolution or abolishment, this current government must be changed. Some type of revolution must be seriously considered. The framers knew their lives were unvalued before entering the new colony. They knew the severe bondage that they suffered while living under the regime of ruthless despotic kings. And they knew the sorrow of religious oppression that accompanied them every day of their life prior to their exodus. They considered their former estate and determined not to allow this evil to come upon them in the new colony, their new free world. And, while it lasted, it was very good for the new colonists. Nevertheless, there arose a Pharaoh that knew not Joseph, casting aside religious values! America's peoples are the descendants of Joseph; the Bible is our true textbook. The new colonists knew the Bible, and believed in it. The words of the Most High adorn many documents and speeches given by these brave people. They were willing to give everything, including their lives, in order to remain free from any form of tyrannical government.

Well! Have we come full circle? Has this current government forgotten the rights of the governed? Have we been forced to accept the leaders' rulership as absolute and dictatorial in concept? When did we relinquish the rights of the "consent of the governed?" It is "We the People" that are supposedly consigned the rights to set these leaders' into their positions of rulership, according to this document. When the governed are supplanted by the governing, and the people no longer have the powers inscribed in the founding documentation, we have been constrained to another dictatorship from which our ancestors fled. Do we need another King of England? Do we need another Stalin, Lenin, or Hitler? This is exactly what happens when the checks and balances are disturbed and disrupted by narcissistic representatives. When the foundational documentation remains inviolable, the nation under which it was written cannot be easily destroyed. However, when these documents along with the major source of reference, the Bible, are breached, destruction is at hand!

I cannot concur with Mr. Norris's selections politically speaking of course. And this is my right to agree or disagree. Huckabee, Mr. Norris' choice for presidential candidate in my opinion is inadequate. However, he is by far the better choice than McCain. Also, Romney supersedes McCain by a wide margin. Mr. Norris also considers Sarah Palin a "maverette" politically speaking. However, Mr. Norris needs to do his homework and take a closer look at this one. I have written about her fiscal irresponsibility previously. She just doesn't pass muster! Her popularity among some is contingent on which head the males see her with! We can certainly do better than McCain and Palin as GOP candidates. And, this is one of the major reasons Americans needs to alter or completely abolish this current government. We are over 480 Billion dollars in budget deficit. We are closing in on 9.7 Trillion dollars as America's National Debt. The fiscal irresponsibility of President Bush (2), Congress, Senate and the governors of America's fifty states is beyond alarming. We are being destroyed by these leaders and what pray tell is being done, talk without action? This is where talk show hosts like Limbaugh are a joke! He touts the economy as being good while in TRUTH Limbaugh, it is crashing! Wake up and pull your head out of the sand! Maybe Chuck Norris can generate a head of steam and get something accomplished. Just view these politicians as opponents in a fight Mr. Norris, and take no prisoners. You cannot have respect of persons to accomplish what you are trying to do! We face two choices, either alter or abolish this current governmental system. I am for the latter! 

When President Bush leaves office that is not the only thing he will leave. Bush will leave a budget deficit of over 490 billion dollars. This exorbitant amount is unprecedented in the history of the entire world. Perhaps you have heard the saying “do the math?” When you do the math, the statistics are staggering. The per-capita debt for every man, woman and child in America now stands at over $30,000! And this is based on 2007 stats. Another serious problem to consider during this presidential election year is; do we really want another Republican in office? Under Republican administrations the National Debt increased. During the last Republican controlled presidential administrations the increase is incomprehensible. Statistical figures tell a disconsolate story that can only portend doom for America financially. How can this astronomical debt ever be repaid? And do we really want more of the same from John McCain and the Republican Party? Hardly!

What have the Republicans’ brought to the table, exactly? Well, we have war! We have debt beyond belief! How many widows and orphans have the Republicans caused because of their wars? We have extortionate gas prices! Our jobs and resources are being outsourced to other countries to obtain a higher profit margin by GOP fueled Capitalism!  Our privacy rights are now brought into question by the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 which includes warrantless wiretapping supposedly to protect us from foreign enemies!   And, the Republicans have put us into severe bondage equated to the time of Moses and Egypt. The Republican Pharaohs have imposed upon us rigorous servitude as the nation is being offered for less than thirty pieces of silver to our enemies. When the debt comes due and the financial obligations are demanded in repayment, where will the money come from, the U.S. Treasury printing presses? Can we just create money and buy our way out of this financial disaster? Not likely!

The Republicans have been in power for twenty of the last twenty-eight years. Republicans have ruled via Reagan-Bush One eight years, Bush One four years, and now Bush 2 eight years. They leave a deplorable financial legacy. During Bush 2 alone the National Debt has almost doubled, and by some current estimates, it has! “On the day Bush 2 took office, the National Debt stood at this unfathomable number:

$5,727.776.738,304.64

In fiscal shorthand, that's $5.7 trillion dollars. Trillion with a "T."

Six and a half years later, the Bureau of Public Debt tells us the National Debt clocks in at a staggering:

$8,835,268,597,181.95

That's $8.8 trillion – an increase of $3.1 trillion dollars since January 20, 2001. And that amounts to a jump of 54% during Mr. Bush's watch.

If you wanted to pay it off, dividing it equally among the U.S. population (estimated by the U.S. Census Bureau to be 302,103,675), it would come to $29,245.82 for every man, woman and child” (CBSNews.Com)!

I have looked at a plethora of United States National Debt charts and they all tell the same story! They graphically depict a distressing financial picture of the debt under each president since pre and post WW 2. The Republicans are most likely to increase debt during their administrations when compared to the Democrats! This is particularly distressing for me as I have been a registered Republican throughout my voting life. My grandfather was an ardent Democrat and knew politics very well. As a college graduate he learned the political sciences and was current on political issues throughout his life. Undoubtedly this is where I obtained my political passions.   The one thing in this is; I thought for some reason that my grandfather was a Republican because he was always so conservative. Although he discussed politics fluently and frequently, I was somehow led to mistakenly believe that he was a Republican. So, I registered as a Republican to follow in his political footsteps and many years later I learned the truth from my mother, grandpa was a Democrat! Was I ever surprised, and so was my mother that I registered as a Republican! Well, now we have a dilemma! What should be done this electoral year? For my part, some of the things Obama and Biden are saying capture my attention. However, I have a problem with their abortion and same sex cohabitation stances. I cannot condone the murder of innocents, and I cannot condone same sex relationships or marriages. So, thus the quandary!   The Republican Party is offering stagnant candidates and more of the same. Their platform and execution of such will follow the Bush pattern, and as much as he tries to distance himself from Bush 2, McCain is still leftovers. And Palin can’t walk on water as some disillusioned Republicans believe. Between Palin and Hillary (and I can’t stand Hillary) I will give the academic and political edge to Hillary. Palin is politically livid by comparison. So now you can have war and debt with the Republican Party, or you can have the social doctrine with the Democratic Party. Personally, I think the obvious choice would be the one that leads to peace, and which party can supply this?

Hillary Clinton’s GOP VP Pick; Palin!

Never ever underestimate the power of a woman scorned, especially if it is in the mold of one Hillary Clinton. Do you honestly think McCain chose Palin? What are you drinking and or smoking? How many people know that McCain and Hillary are best buds? I wondered from the beginning why Sarah Palin was the GOP VP choice; it just didn’t make sense until I factored into the equation Hillary Clinton, and then it became crystal clear. Hillary was calling the shots because of her own party’s rejection. What better way to voice her obvious anger over being rejected in favor of Senator Obama first and then Senator Biden? Clinton (HR) is from assorted devious character molds such as Saul Alinsky that old radical from “Rules for Radicals” cookbook fame, if you want to call it that. Alinsky liked to use an evasive action called tactic proxy. Sometimes an attacker's true target remains obfuscated.  By attacking the target by proxy using circuitous means and methods, the attacker diverts the attention away from themselves. The true target in this case is the Democratic Party.   So to avert suspicion, and divert attention away from herself and her supposed allegiance to the Democratic Party, Hillary makes a subversive proxy attack via John McCain to obtain her vengeance for being rejected as the Democratic Party presidential nominee, and then being snubbed for the VP slot.  Hillary contacts John McCain and tells him to select Sarah Palin as his running mate.  Don’t think the Clinton’s are capable of such deceit, where were you living during the Clinton Mafia years, in a vacuum? 

Everything stinks about this entire GOP process. Forced to drink Kool-Aid by the GOP; Republicans are following along like sheep to the slaughter. Forced to accept a mentally challenged person for their presidential candidate, Republicans are being basically forced to carry the banner, the fetid water and then agree to everything being said by GOP officials. There is no way under creation that I could ever personally support something like John McCain for president. Perhaps he will have a heart attack and die so a better choice could be found. Perhaps the GOP can find someone who won’t foist upon the GOP the “it’s my turn” imbecility and be a genuine honest to goodness candidate with high morals and no mental issues. Who in blue blazes ever said it was John McCain’s turn, and just how do you figure that, because he said so? What bovine scatology! The earth has close to seven billion inhabitants, and the USA has over three hundred million people. I tell you this; if this is the best that this country or the world can offer, we are in deep you know what! If the four candidates that comprise the Democratic and Republican selections are the best America has to offer for potential presidential and vice-presidential choices, it’s over! We are absolutely finished as a nation. Somebody please sound taps and bring down the flag because it’s over!

PS Palin as GOP VP potential furthers the family values role of the Republican Party with an in-house unwed pregnant teenager! Now here’s a real good example for our youth to look up to, don’t you think?    

It is interesting to be categorized by readers of this blog. When GOP conservatives (quasi) and Kool-Aid drinking Limbaugh fanatics cannot respond intellectually to what I have written, they attach an appellative to you. They want to categorically stigmatize you with a label that makes them feel good about their ignorant selves. Several of the aforementioned have erroneously labeled me as a liberal, are you ever wrong on that appellative! I make Pat Buchanan look like he is still in Kindergarten by comparison. Am I a radical? No! I am a balanced conservative that studies the issues being considered, and then offer intellectual response (s). In other words I think before I engage my mouth, something that true liberals and arm-chair critics do not. One issue that recently came to my attention was Obama’s stance on abortion. Rick Warren, a poser minister if there ever was one, queried Obama on the when life begins question seeking the old abortion stance response that so many politicians and people running for office face. Obama’s response was not strong to Warren’s must ask question, but for a liberal, it was better than some that I’ve heard over the years. Maybe Obama did not want to be caught up in a trap by responding to the question another way. Why is this question so important that it demands an emphatic answer? Are there not more important issues that affect most Americans? Now I want to posit something for consideration. Does it really make a difference on what the candidate believes concerning this issue? NO, and I’ll tell you why.

This same query was posed to Bush forty-one. Bush is a pro-life president. And I think Obama in all reality is the same. For whatever reason the candidates must pander to every lobby group under the sun and give them the answers they want to hear to get elected to office. Once in office they can change positions on the issues, elected officials flip-flop on beliefs and issues all the time. But, what if anything can be done about the abortion issue? Can Roe v Wade be overturned? Yes, it is possible but for now highly unlikely. Bush forty-one has been in office for almost eight years now. My question is this; has he been able to get Roe v Wade overturned during his time in office? No he has not! Now why do you suppose this is? Time for a little back in time lesson! In landmark Supreme Court cases Roe v Wade stands as monumental. In 1992, the Supreme Court decided the case of Planned Parenthood of Southern Pennsylvania vs. Casey. This case was presented in hopes of changing Roe v Wade. Because the make-up of the Court had changed and become more conservative since Roe was first decided, many people believed that the Court might use this case to overturn Roe altogether. But what happened? 

In a 5-4 decision the Court reaffirmed its commitment to Roe and to the basic right of a woman to have an abortion under certain circumstances. Justice O’Connor, who authored the majority opinion, argued that stare decisis required the Court to not overturn Roe. Stare decisis is the general principal that when a point has been settled by decision, it forms a precedent which is not afterwards to be departed from (landmarkcases.org). Yes, stare Decisis came into play and the court ruled against Casey. Incidentally, I am from Pennsylvania and I supported Governor Casey completely in this case. However, it is very difficult to overturn cases wherein stare decisis is the precedent by preceding court cases. The full legal term is "stare decisis et quieta non movere" meaning "stand by decisions and do not move that which is still".  Oh, this happened during the end of Bush one and the beginning of Clinton presidencies. Now to return to point; If Bush one followed by Clinton, followed by Bush two could not change the Roe v Wade ruling, what’s the point and why even ask the abortion question? Doesn’t this issue appear to be a moot point? What would it take to change this ruling? A complete conservative Supreme Court with a test case to challenge the current ruling could result in overturning Roe v Wade. But, will it happen any time soon is the question. Look how hard it was to get conservative judges on the Supreme Court to start with. The moderates on the court are not pro life vote guarantees, and neither are the avowed liberals willing to cast their vote in favor of overturning this flawed decision any time soon.  (BTW, if you want my true stance on what should be done with beyond doubt convicted murderers specifically with aggravating circumstances such as cop killers, you can bring me a truckload of rocks as I have a lot of work to do!) Just thought I would insert that little personal gem.  Anyway, don’t look for change anytime soon on Roe v Wade. But, wouldn’t it be a shocker if Obama was elected president and pushed for this to be overturned, wishful thinking, perhaps. I do believe however, there is more to Obama than meets the eye. 

Chief Justice John Robert’s opinion on this volatile issue taken from the Washington Post September 15, 2005.

“Judge Roberts made clear that he believes the Constitution contains a right to privacy, and he expressed his agreement with high-court decisions striking down bans on contraception. While he declined to address the merits of Roe v. Wade, he did indicate that it is a decision to which stare decisis considerations properly apply. Importantly, he said several times that the subsequent decision in Planned Parenthood v. Casey -- which reaffirmed Roe’s core principle -- was independently entitled to be treated as a precedent. That implies that there would be a heavy burden for the court in upsetting abortion rights now. Judge Roberts was careful not to say what he would do, but his comments suggest that he appreciates the difficulty of eliminating a right the court has solemnly declared, and redeclared, in the past.” 

The more the GOP strives to ram this candidate down the Republican Party’s throat the more resentful one becomes. John McCuckoo is a first class loon in claiming rights to be the next in line Presidential candidate. But, based on what? What makes McCuckoo think that he has some deserved right of passage to stake claim to this nomination, what has he done that grants him the right to be successor to the throne? Oh, he served in Viet Nam! So did many others! Oh, he was a prisoner of war! There were quite a few that were taken captive and can say the same thing! There is one distinction that he has that many of his fellow captives cannot claim; John McCuckoo is a traitor to his country. Don’t believe that?  During his POW captivity, McCuckoo was broken by his captors and signed a statement admitting the war crimes of the USA against Viet Nam et al. Claiming extreme duress, McCuckoo broke under the pressure. And now he wants the exalted position of president of the USA! What makes him think that he can handle that pressured position? And incidentally, there were many POW’s in Nam that endured even more torture and humiliation than John McCuckoo, and they never broke, never signed any war crimes admission papers.  

John McCuckoo is also known for his unstable temperament. He is known to lose his temper over minor incidents. John McCuckoo also has a bad gambling habit so can we trust him to make judicious decisions? Hardly! One of the major problems this buffoon has is faithfulness to spouse. While he was a POW in Nam, his former wife did everything she could to obtain his release. Let’s read the quote from a reputable news source.

“McCain is angry because he says correctly that I was critical of the breakup of his first marriage [to Carol Shepp; McCain adopted her two sons, Doug and Andy] and ‘traffic in allegations that [he] had committed treason while a prisoner of war in Vietnam.’ I admit I don’t know of his side of the story. But I do know that McCain’s first wife, Carol, had worked for him with such devotion when he was a POW. Yet, as soon as McCain was back and assigned to the Navy’s Office of Congressional Affairs, one of his colleagues disgustedly reported that McCain was making overtures to every good-looking female who came near the office. Perhaps that contributed to the breakup of his first marriage. I don’t know, but it is hard not to feel sympathy for his first wife and think that someone who had worked so tirelessly and selflessly on behalf of her husband did not receive similar devotion and loyalty in return (Weyrich, Newsmax, 2005, 26).

Now the adultery situation with “I’m too good to be true” John Edwards has been revealed, McCuckoo is in the same boat by his adulterous affairs, can this person be trusted in the high office of presidency? Wasn’t Bill Clinton bad enough, do we need another infidel taking the high office of the presidency? Where are the good moral Republicans? Where can we find a man of honor untarnished by the temptations of this world? It is a real shame that the GOP can only field such a one as McCuckoo and then have the audacity to endorse and stand behind this lunatic. This is really a dilemma!   Surely there are better offerings to be found. Oh, and in this same issue of Newsmax, Rush Limbaugh is adamant against McCuckoo becoming the next president, but has Rush changed his mind? Has Rush been compromised by the GOP’s candidate? Is Rush the GOP Waterboy despite his opposition to such? Listen to Limbaugh disparagement of Obama and you can only wonder if Limbaugh is a GOP subterfuge.   His rhetoric sounds like bovine scatology to me. For someone that is not very fond of John McCuckoo, his narrative does not reflect the animus that was once purported. Can we say political double entendre here? Personally, The GOP needs a lesson. If Obama is elected president that lesson would be more than deserved. That would be the slap in the face the GOP really needs for offering someone like McCuckoo for a presidential candidate. The GOP needs to pay for their insipid behavior and do nothing agenda during the last four years. The oil crisis is reflective of their ineptitude to accomplish anything. Why did the GOP hold back until recently to lodge any protest against high oil prices, do they have any investment in the oil industry, are they speculators also?   What a stinking mess this GOP. Maybe a serious time-out will change their minds and behavior. Do you think?  

Last year you said you were no longer going to carry the water for the GOP? Remember? Well, you are! Every day (and this ad infinitum) you disparage Barrack Obama you are doing the lazy GOP's water carrying. Limbaugh, you are OC on Obama. What are you so afraid of? Regardless of what your limited capabilities will generate, you will stop nothing. Why don't you use your airtime for useful projects such as adequate oil supplies, deficit reduction, restoring America to its' former Constitutional standards, and helping real people in need? Particularly, you should have helped field a good viable GOP presidential candidate! Chuck Norris is doing something about America's problems everyday in his columns, and in his actions, and all you can do is bust on Obama, man are you lazy! Too much work to actually do something useful Limbaugh? Everyday your entire rhetoric is Obama based, what's the point? And, why do you continue the Obama vilification when America is in deep financial doo-doo? Limbaugh are you even cognizant of your surroundings? Are you aware of the economical crises America is in? Fed Chief Bernanke says this, and you regurgitate Obama every day all day?

Fed-chief Bernanke again: “The economy continues to face numerous difficulties, including ongoing strains in financial markets, declining house prices, a softening labor market, and rising prices of oil, food, and some other commodities. . . . The deteriorating performance of subprime mortgages in the United States triggered turbulence in domestic and international financial markets as investors became markedly less willing to bear credit risks of any type. . . . Many financial markets and institutions remain under considerable stress, in part because the outlook for the economy, and thus for credit quality, remains uncertain.” Australia and New Zealand are facing crisis in their economy and all you can do is make fun of Obama’s gaps between words? Limbaugh, have you ever listened to your stuttering self? You should talk!

President Bush signs a massive housing and mortgage relief bill into law and you bust on Obama’s note in the West Wall? This bill was originally facing the Presidential veto, but the seriousness of the economy pressured Bush to sign it against his original veto intentions. Limbaugh, you keep indicating the Capitalistic process and its’ supply and demand adjustments. You keep saying the economy is good and it’s only making some necessary changes. Oh really? Where do you dwell, a place that has a sand pile so you can put your head into it every night? But with you Limbaugh, it’s Obama this and Obama that continuously, you are beginning to fetishise on Obama, something we should know Limbaugh?

When a man knows to do good and does it not, to that man it is a sin. You have a good pulpit everyday, but you are misusing it to offer up vituperations against Obama. Limbaugh, where were you when the GOP selected this dido McCain? Where was your intense prolix of this loon? You should be screaming at the top of your lungs for a better candidate from the GOP. No, instead you waste your time on nonsensical diatribes against the Democratic Party’s candidate. Limbaugh, to whom more is given, more is required. Tis a shame! BTW! What are you going to talk about tomorrow, the next day, and the day after? I know, let me guess, Obama! Limbaugh, you’re becoming a bit of a dido yourself. Hey little water boy bring that water around, if you don't like your job, set that water bucket down…

Never has so few people done so much to so many. The audacity of the lying deceitful marketers that are price gouging and gambling in speculative oil futures is beyond any white color crime that I have seen in many, many years. Bill O’Reilly of Fox News Factor fame and columnist, makes this eye-opening statement concerning oil’s real cost per barrel to produce. “It costs Saudi Arabia about two dollars to market each barrel of oil. Last week, those huggable Saudis charged the world $138 for that barrel of oil.” (BillOReilly.com: 2008). Now if that does not anger you, nothing will. Why should Americans pay $4.00 (or more) per gallon when it costs almost nothing to produce? 

We are constantly reading about falling (quasi) oil prices because the U.S. is cutting the demand outlook. Excuses are offered (lame) that one of the reasons gas prices are so high is because oil refineries can’t keep up with demand. When has that ever stopped any greedy capitalist from making money by building more refineries because the demand warrants it? How stupid do they think we are? And incidentally how stupid are they conceptually speaking? They believe that their little meaningless lives cannot be touched by this dilemma!   They feel they are in an untouchable position and in control of their little fiefdoms! But, what is sown is also reaped, and as sure as I am writing this blog, they will pay for their insolence and non-merciful approach with the earth’s resources. James 5:1 Says- “Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming upon you.” These resources were created for the service of all of mankind, not a select few to profit excessively from. 

The current way of doing business is at best; a failure. The President is a failure, Congress is a failure, and the Senate is a failure. America is under extreme duress cataclysmically and financially. People are having their homes foreclosed on because they simply cannot make the payments. And, on top of this is the scandal developing concerning these same mortgages! Some news by-lines today, “Two hedge fund managers today became the first financial executives to be arrested over the US sub-prime mortgage scandal.” “Senate Submerged in Mortgage Scandal.” (Fox News Headline 6/18/08) So, what this means is, the fox is guarding the henhouse. I don’t know about you but, I am finding myself angry more than usual over these, and other oppressive issues being foisted upon the American people. 

Our forefathers fought against such oppression prior to and during the founding of this country. They wanted freedom from oppression and tyranny, so they fought against these oppressors, and America was born, home of the free and land of the brave. And now we are finding that a few evil avaricious people want to reinstitute slavery, (and we are the slaves) all for the sake of making a dollar. They are selling out our freedoms for their inflated bank accounts. I am one that believes in free enterprise. Free enterprise is business’s that concentrate on supply and demand for the general populace without government interference. If I plant or build something I have a right to sell what I have built or what I have reaped without intervention or intrusion by assorted marketers or middle men. I do not believe that I have the right to exploit anyone for profit whether that is fellow Americans or peoples of other lands and or countries. I make, plant, construct (houses, buildings) and then I sell what I have to any that will buy it. The going market will determine the price of my goods.

Our futures are being stolen from us by white collar criminals. White collar crime goes virtually unnoticed because of the echelon involved. And another reason why white collar crimes are so extant is the prosecuting authorities cannot afford to prosecute these white collar criminals. And if they do choose to prosecute them the dollar value of their crime (s) is determinate if they will be prosecuted at all! And if they do choose to bring them to trial, these criminals appear before the court with high dollar barristers to get them off, and, they usually do! So it is a win-win situation for these thieves, from the highest to the lowest, these parasites would steal their own mother’s life savings!

Author Kevin Phillips has written a book called “Bad Money” it addresses the why our economy is sinking. He says that Capitalism has run amok, and I am in concurrence with this concept! Here is a salient excerpt from this book:

“The most worrisome thing about the vulnerability of the U.S. economy circa 2008,” Phillips writes, “is the extent of official understatement and misstatement — the preference for minimizing how many problems there are and how interconnected they are.”

Sort of like an ostrich’s head in the sand as a good illustration! Economically, America is in trouble and at the helm of this ship sailing to devastation are foolish and unprincipled men and women leading this country to certain economic collapse.  

This has certainly been a snipe shoot, the Presidential campaign that is. With the withdrawal of the candidate inevitable, we have a possible candidate for the Democratic Party. Whether this candidate is the Manchurian Candidate remains to be seen. I say never underestimate intelligence and possessors thereof. When any presidential candidate has people he looks up to with names like Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy, he can’t be all bad. On the other side in the quasi Republican Party their candidate seemingly has Attila the Hun for his idol. He does seem to be a war-monger doesn’t he? Has this paradigm suddenly changed? It appeared in time past that the Democrats got America into war, and the Republicans got America out of war. Or; does it just seem that way? At least McCain has not referenced assassination as a possible way to win the White House, yet! Clinton (s), what goes around, comes around! Watch your six! Am I making any threats? NO! But the laws of inevitability are not easy to change! You will pay for all that you have done in the flesh, you will not go to your grave (s) unpunished says the word of the Most High!

One cannot miss (unless you live in a vacuum) the signs surrounding us currently. With the loss suffered by the inevitable winner Big Brown, to the loss of the inevitable first female president, one cannot avoid these direct assertions. You simply cannot take anything as a given. Interestingly enough, the withdrawal of H. R. Clinton and the loss by Big Brown occurred on the same day, coincidence, hardly. We are seeing another comparison in the news that is a striking parallel, the do nothing Government and the rotten tomatoes incident. How illustrative is this unmistakable point. And, here’s another comparison, the burning of the Texas Governor’s Mansion in the light of stealing children from their mothers under the auspices of something they really had little or no evidence of occurrence. Talk about poetic! And, there are other issues in Texas that remain unresolved. Remember Ramos and Compean? And despite ethics complaints being filed against Bush buddy and incompetent Johnny Sutton, nothing has been accomplished in their being released by the Texas authorities, another fax-paux by Texas LE? They seem destined to stupidity!

Our major concern is the oil “crisis” at this period of time. How is it, that fools are put in charge of the earth’s resources? It appears that this is another do nothing matter for the powers that be to ignore. President Bush is now bemoaning his approach to entering the Iraq war, duh! President Bush, if you want to go down in history as a President that made a difference, now is the time. Order (Executive) the oil to be released from the USA’s reserves to reduce the economic impact on our economy. Remember the Great Depression began with a do nothing President, a do nothing body of Congressmen and Senators. Déjà vu? Good grief President Bush, why cry and feel bad when you can by Executive Order make substantial changes! Is this not a national emergency? Is this not a time when relief is needed? What are you waiting for, lightning to fall from Heaven on you and your family? You say you believe and live the Bible? If this is true, there is one passage I would like to bring to your attention et al concerning someone who was positioned for a time and place purpose, Queen Esther! I leave all of you do nothing people with this poignant thought and truth. Yes, this concerned the Jewish people but, can be applied accordingly!

“For if you are completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance shall rise up to the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house shall perish. And who knows if you have attained to the kingdom for such a time as this?” Esther 4:14

I have hesitated to write anything recently because; I am beginning to think it may be a waste of time, mine and, yours! Recently, I came across a news clipping that insinuated the support for Hillary was fading in the press.  (One can only hope!) The article directed you to a SNL performance wherein the opening skit depicts the less than sane Democrat candidate Clinton, revealing (by proxy) some real truths. As the old saying goes, “many a truth is said in jest.”   Here is the link to that brilliant sketch by SNL’s Amy Poehler. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/05/11/saturday-night-lives-mess_n_101177.html

The story and the impact of uncovering Clinton’s darkness can be read here. http://news.yahoo.com/s/huffpost/20080513/cm_huffpost/101257

The three points made focus on the real Hillary Clinton and the mindset of the Democratic Party for what they really are; Plantation Mentality Slavers. The first point: She is a sore loser! This really fits this loon. She just can’t believe that she has been/is being rejected, and is losing to someone of color, that has got to hurt, LOL! Second point:  Her supporters are racist. And third: She says, “I have no ethical standards.” This in all reality is absolutely true, as are the other points. Even in jest the truth is spoken. You do not want this abhorrent detestable faux woman anywhere near the White House again, even in passing.

Rush Limbaugh and his so-called “Operation Chaos” is nothing short of a joke. While the GOP is floundering, the quasi nominee McCain is nothing more than a dido, and Limbaugh is doing nothing to try and reverse the chaos of/in the Republican Party. If Rush wants to do something useful, let him put his effort into saving what’s left of the GOP. He thinks he can sink the Democratic nominee if it’s Obama so Hillary Clinton is instead the nominee. (I actually think in some perverted way Limbaugh has the hots for Hillary)  In doing this he thinks that McCain has a better chance of beating Clinton. All things relevant and all things on a level playing field as he often refers to those who challenge Capitalism, Limbaugh is hypocritical to say the least on this matter. The GOP candidate this election couldn’t do much against someone like Obama as he (John McCain) is on life support already, and level playing field rules are non-applicable. We long for the days wherein a Presidential candidate ran on issues and values and not on lies and dirt dug up from the candidates past by some unscrupulous Detective such as Anthony Pellicano; the Clinton’s major dirt digger! Incidentally, Pellicano is getting what he deserves, and so will the Clinton’s, it’s just a matter of time!

My picture caption for this blog consists of Rome burning while President Bush plays (as usual) and embedded within this picture is the Titanic (representative of the GOP) sinking… Need I say more, all things applicable considering the current state of America? This is exactly what happens when you have meddlers such as Bush and Condoleezza Rice inserting themselves into Israel’s state of affairs. The lessons of Bush’s father and the past loser President (Bill Clinton) (man I hate using profanity in saying his name but…?) in their failure, and subsequent rapid descent should be a lesson to the current President. It does however, fail to find his grey matter and so the lesson is lost and the consequences are predictable, failure as we can plainly see. 

This country is in deep trouble because the leadership has failed to lead in any positive manner. Although I am a serious conservative I believe for shock value and also to send a wake up call, Barrack Obama should become the next President!   He most certainly could not do any worse than the current one. And; he might do better given the opportunity. Besides, I think people are underestimating this man. He has more substance than he is given credit for. I believe the change is needed. Perhaps the GOP will come to gripes with what is happening within their ranks and make the necessary changes? However, I will believe it when I see it!

The scatological nonsense continues to fly, and only the gullible are ingesting this propaganda delicacy. Big Oil and our own thieving conniving government are in league to fleece the citizens of America!  How in Heaven’s Name did we ever get to this stage? I mean; what on earth transpired wherein greedy avaricious specimens of the human waste gained control of these vital resources? There was a time that the welfare/good of the human race was considered. The resources were place on earth for all the inhabitants therein to utilize for their necessities. Assorted fuels such as natural gas, wood, coal, and oil were created for cooking, warmth in the winter, factory production etc. etc. The resources are bountiful and there is no shortage of these resources, so what has changed that oil has now skyrocketed to astronomical price elevations? Greed and control of oil by evil selfish individuals that’s what happened!

America et al are now engaged in a quagmire can’t depart war, shades of Vietnam, déjà vu again! It was posited that America needed to fight this terrorist orchestrated war for the protection of it’s’ citizens, and to keep the oil flowing and the prices down. And if you believe that crock of swill I have some more of the same to throw at you! The transparency of this entire falsified situation is obvious to anyone not brainwashed into believing what the United States Government has to say about, well, almost anything.   The government has become pathological in reporting the progress of the war, the economy, and our resources. We now have 57 days of food for the entire world stored back in case of famine. That is not very much considering the government now encourages the corn to be converted into ethanol for fueling our vehicles. They want to increase corn usage to 20% in the gas ethanol mix. So what does that mean? Our food store is being consumed by our upwardly motorized society, and soon the food will be gone. Up in smoke! 

The government tells us all kinds of assorted reasoning for each and every gasoline shortage, and why the price of oil continues to escalate. They tell us everything but the truth! I have placed a chart showing the U.S. Oil Imports and where they are derived from. Notice the number one and number two suppliers of U.S. oil! Is it in Iraq or Afghanistan where we are fighting for “OIL” among other things? No it is not! Canada is number one, and Saudi Arabia is listed as the number two supplier, but; we are not fighting Saudi Arabia, are we?  Read the following report on imports to the USA in January 2008.   Iraq supplies what percentage? Five percent! Wow!

January 2008 Import Highlights:  March 28, 2008
“Monthly data on the origins of crude oil imports in January 2008 has been released and it shows that two countries exported more than 1.50 million barrels per day to the United States. Including those countries, a total of five countries exported over 1.20 million barrels per day of crude oil to the United States (see table below). The top five exporting countries accounted for 69 percent of United States crude oil imports in January while the top ten sources accounted for approximately 89 percent of all U.S. crude oil imports. The top sources of US crude oil imports for January were Canada (1.944 million barrels per day), Saudi Arabia (1.479 million barrels per day), Mexico (1.198 million barrels per day), Nigeria (1.163 million barrels per day), and Venezuela (1.135 million barrels per day). The rest of the top ten sources, in order, were Angola (0.566 million barrels per day), Iraq (0.543 million barrels per day), Algeria (0.366 million barrels per day), Ecuador (0.247 million barrels per day), and Kuwait (0.239 million barrels per day). Total crude oil imports averaged 10 million barrels per day in January, which is an increase of 0.177 million barrels per day from December 2007.

Canada remained the largest exporter of total petroleum in January, exporting 2.586 million barrels per day to the United States, which is an increase from last month (2.360 thousand barrels per day). The second largest exporter of total petroleum was Saudi Arabia with 1.503 million barrels per day.”   These statistics are taken from here. (http://www.eia.doe.gov/pub/oil_gas/petroleum/data_publications/company_level_imports/current/import.html)
I will have more to say on this wicked deceitful plan.  What is the purpose?
