The system worked

Dear Janet Napolitano (Big Sister),

The terrorist, who was on a watch list, paid cash for a one way ticket with no bags and got on a plane with no Identification. He flew in to the United States and was able to detonate his device. It was only for fellow passengers that he was subdued and the system worked. His own father called to warn U.S. officials about his son's terrorist plot to which no one was able to stop him. The system worked.

Which system worked? The one where 90-year-old grandmothers are searched before entering flights? The one where families who bought round trip tickets by credit card in advance are pulled out of line to be screened? The system worked.

Maybe it was the system that says that my 3oz of hand sanitizer cannot travel with me. That I cannot bring in outside food or drink and have to pay prices at airports. Because would be terrorists do not watch the news. We are on the lookout for anyone with a 6oz tube of medicated skin cream. Because it is the item that identifies those who wish to do us harm and not the individuals themselves. The system worked.

The system worked after passengers subdued the “suspect”. The TSA sprung in to action and notified all of the other planes in the air that airport screeners, federal agencies, and who ever is in charge of the 500,000 name list wasn't doing their jobs. Pilots and crews were made aware to look for suspicious activity; by I am sure a 90 yr old grandmother because ethnic profiling is wrong.

Now you want to bring the terrorist to a U.S. prison. Read him his rights that you have just given him. Rights that he did not have before he tried to kill U.S. citizens. Take him to a city in the U.S. with the highest Muslim population and people who cheered the 9/11 attackers and give him a trial by his peers? Are you going to ensure that he has a jury of 12 anti-American terrorist sympathizers so that he can see that the system works?

How about keeping us safe? How about using that list of 500,000 names to restrict travel? How about the system that let's us know that while we sleep at night, work to support our families, and travel someone is protecting us.

No, the system that did work was politics as usual. When you appeared and made a stupid statement. Then you had to retract your statement. Then Robert Gibbs made a stupid statement. Then President Obama had to make an appearance because he was on vacation, again, when the incident happened. Then the president had to act upset. Which I am sure he was upset. He was on vacation and left idiots in charge. Now the final step in the system will be to blame Bush. The system worked.

Maybe if the terrorists claimed that they wanted to stop healthcare reform you would be more likely to stop them. Until you are willing to protect us, I suppose we will have to continue to be vigilant citizens and guard ourselves. Hopefully we will remain on watch in the 2010 and 2012 election and vote out those who want to do us harm.

Thank you for your service to your country,

Now Please Leave.

Have yourself a merry little...

Harry Reid,

Merry Christmas. I know that in the past liberals have shunned that phrase. Trying to replace the phrase with the generic "Happy Holidays" or "Bah Humbug". However this year, I think that you will be more accepting.

I would like to bring you thanks for your gift to the American People. This was not an easy task. Like Santa, you have worked around the clock and through the night to make this possible. You have given America the largest Christmas Gift that you could bring, $2.5 trillion in spending over the next 10 years, government entitlements where there were none, and hope to illegals.

It is the gift that keeps on taking. We will get to start paying for out new gift after the holidays, even though we will not use any benefit for years.

It is with your gift that "We the People" will now be able to be accessory to the murder of out children regardless of personal belief. It is with your gift that individuals who choose to not purchase health care will now face a sort of "debtors prison". Never before has an individual had the benefit of choosing between prison and the doctor.

In our many thanks for imposing your will on us I must leave you with one final question. If the new health care coverage is so good and comprehensive, why is it that members of Congress and their families are exempt?

Hopefully in 2010, we will be able to reciprocate you overly generous gift. We would like to give you the gift of retirement and President Obama the gift of a Republican majority Congress. Now that is change you can believe in.

Better late then never, maybe

Dear President Obama,

Your teleprompter delivered a good speech last night and you read it with conviction. You left many questions unanswered however. Now comes the test to see if you have the resolve to follow up with the words that you spoke. This message was long over due. We need to show the Wolrd that America has the fortitude to finish what it started. That we will not give in to terrorists even if we give them a much softer name and want to bestow Constitutional Rights upon them.

The left wing of your party, your core base, is not pleased with this message. Michael Moore has stated that your actions will make you a "War" President. Senator Baucus has stated that he will do everything in his power to see that this cannot be funded. This is the test of your Presidency however. You will be measeured not by failing to pass Health Care Reform and causing the greatest Nation Debt that any generation has ever seen, but by your ability to get out of the way and allow Our great men and women in uniform to preform their job duties and defend Our Nation.

While you campaigned in the center, we all know too well that when you speak off the cuff that you drift to the far left. You think that we should "spread" the wealth around a little and that entitlements should be given by the Constitution. However, this is your time to show that Politics are second to National Defense. This is your greatest opportunity to show that the lives of American Citizens and our saftey is your number one priority.

That being said, we the people will now return to our Domestic Contigency Celebration. Or as we still like to call it, Christmas.

God Bless,

Politically Accurate

Dear Liberals,

Thank you for taking the time to create a society where not only are people not responsible for their actions, but are given extra consideration for them. The inability to call a spade a spade does not promote anything. Your mollycoddling of society only benefits your own justification to exist.

Political correctness is one example of your over protection. The "War on Terror" had to be changed to an "Over Seas Contigency Operation." "Terrorism" is now called "Man Caused Disaster". Criminals are treated like the victim. This Political Correctness is neither Political nor Correct. I suggest that we replace Political Correctness with Politically Accurate.

To try to better explain how your actions are not positive I will use Politically Accurate Nursery Rhymes to speak on your level and explain what is REALLY happening today.

London Bridge is falling down,
falling down,
falling down,
London Bridge is falling down,
and it is estimated the the Federal Recovery Act will have created or saved 4 million jobs repairing it over the next 3 years,

The was an old woman who swallowed a fly
I don't know why she swallowed a fly,
she attempted to use the government provided health care was put on a 6 month waiting list to be seen by a doctor and tried home remedies in the meantime,
I guess she'll die

There was an old woman who lived in a shoe;
She had so many children, she didn't know what to do;
She gave them some broth without any bread;
Then applied for government assistance now you and I feed, cloth, and educate her children with our tax dollars


In short, please leave the important decisions to those who can and are willing to make them. Though decisions need though leaders not community organizers.

The People Have Spoken

Dear President Obama,


Yesterday’s elections proved that your approval and public support is dropping faster than Bill Clinton’s pants. You are desperately trying to define your administration as the bringers of change. Through all of your past days the “Right Wing Nuts” have spouted time and time again how you have failed. However, I would like to point out one good thing that you have done. You have united the Republican base and brought moderates back to the Right.

You fellow party members in Congress should share in my thanks. For without them, this would not have been possible. Their referendum on America in Health Care helps Americans see the difference in the Parties. Especially with the almost, and by now probably exceeding, two thousand page Bill that they plan to present. The Republicans also have a Health Care Bill. However, theirs is a mere two hundred and thirty pages.

If we were to give these Bills titles the Republican Bill I would think would be called “Sense and Sensibility” while the Democrat version would be “Pride and Prejudice.” However, possibly “Frankenstein” would be a more appropriate title. As, it has been put together piecemeal by people mad with power creating a sort of uncontrollable monster.

Do not worry, when you are down and feeling like no one in America is on your side you can always go to the United Nations. Foreign Dictators seem to enjoy your company as it apparently gives them a sense of power knowing that the American President will bow to foreign kings. Please stay as long as you like.

Tricked Not Treated

Dear President Obama,

Now that we have almost come a full year from your election to office we realize that the joke is on us. The love affair with Middle America is over and now people are expecting actual results, not just campaign rhetoric. You campaigned on bringing change, but never would say what that meant.

Yes you did. You brought change. More Americans are out of jobs than when you were elected. Iran has admitted to a nuclear program since your election. The dollar has dropped in value. You became the first Nobeal Peace Prize winner to not have done anyhting. You bought the Olympics to Chicago.

You are busy fighting a war. A more dangerous and conniving enemy than the United States has ever seen before. That's right, Fox News. However it seems that allies on that front are harder to convince than in the "Overseas Contingency Operation." Even France can'tback the War on Fox News.

Your latest Trick is Obamacare. Trying to fool the American people in to giving up our Rights to choose. This is your first step to the Socialisation of America and moving to One Wolrd Government. Being President of the Greatest Nation on Earth is not enough for you, you are trying to be President of the Wolrd and Dictator to America.

You can keep your entitlements. You can keep your taxes. You can keep your Government Programs. We'll keep America.

Happy Anniversary Osama from Obama

Dear President Obama,

As an American Citizen, I am proud to see that your administration is dealing with matters of National Security in a timely manner. Your first year has not been easy. I understand that it has been quite difficult. No other President in American history has had to face challenges in their first year. But, now that the stimulus worked, health care is on it's way to being resolved, guns are off the streets in Chicago, the Olympics are coming, you can attend to the small matter of the war.

It seems that General McChrystal has unreasonable expectations. He expects for you to meet with him more than once a year to discuss military operations. I am glad to see that you explained that a new strategy to win the war must first be decided. No one can expect for you to have read his 66 page repot with all of the reading that you had to first do with the 451 page bailout, 1071 page stimulus, and multiple healthcare bills.

With public opinion gaining momentum for a troop surge, maybe we can get something done. Possibly as many as 50,000 Peace Corps, 4H, and Habitat for Humanity works could be sent in the next surge. We have the opportunity for a teachable moment.

Once you are done passing out white jackets for a photo-op with "doctors" for healthcare, maybe they can stay and put on camouflage jackets for the next picture. After all, with your busy schedule when was the last time you visited the Troops anyways?

Bury ObamaCare with Kennedy

Dear Patrick Joseph Kennedy II,
Thank you for your concern over the Health Care debate. With all of the uninsured and under-insured Americans and illegal citizens that we have in this country using the current health care system, something must be done. You have the foresight to look past all of the inessential topics that have been discussed in the news, like who will be covered and how to pay for "Change". You have found what is most important by warning that the "health-care debate could turn violent."

I understand your concern. While your family has had a violent history, I am sure that you yourself have had a quiet past. If we overlook the cocaine use during your teenage years, drugs and alcohol abuse while you were a student at Providence College, & collaborating to cover up a rape. We will also not mention that on May 4, 2006 you crashed your convertible into a barricade on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., at 2:45 a.m. As you stated you were merely disoriented from prescription medications Ambien and Phenergan. But the accident was not without merit as you noted in your statement to officers that you were "late for a vote". However, the last vote of the night had occurred almost six hours earlier. At least you were not on a bridge with a passenger.

With all the soccer moms, senior citizens, and workers that are littering the streets lawfully protesting, violence is bound to ensue. We have already had a case where blood has been shed over this topic. I believe that it was a health care reform activist who bit off the left pinky of a 65-year-old man who opposed health care reform. I hope that your warning was intended to go both ways.

Thank you for thinking about the rights of the citizens in this debate. Debate was in the founding principles of this great Country. While understanding that "we have the right to debate and disagree with any administration". We must be reasonable and understand that freedom of speech does not allow yelling ‘fire’ in the middle of a crowded movie theater." Nor is there room for yelling "YOU LIE" in a Joint Session.

These are important times of debate as "Change" is coming to America. This topic has brought together people in open debate from many different socials aspects and walks of life. Proving that in this country communication is what can bridge any divide. For example you are a Liberal, bipolar, recovering alcoholic who lies his was through life and I am a tax paying, Bible reading, Conservative, Republican who has a nasty habit of telling the truth. I suppose we can't all be perfect.

Thank you for your service to Our Country,

A teachable moment by President Jimmy Carter

Dear President Jimmy Carter,

Thank you for your words of wisdom and attempt to bring the country together. It takes a powerful message by a strong leader to unite a Nation. In this time of unrest, we all appreciate being called names while having disagreements on fundamental idea and values. Your words of wisdom should defiantly bring an end to the discussion. Now we see that it is Conservatives who are all in the wrong for wanting racist things like lower taxes, reduced Government spending, and freedom.

While you are working on bringing the Nation back together by easing racial tension, be sure to mention to President Obama about the incident on a Belleville West High School Bus. We have the opportunity for a teachable moment here. It seems that a white student being beaten by a black student while other black students cheer is not a hate crime. The real lesson here is that white students should not try to sit down on a bus. Maybe you can suggest to President Obama, who has been silent on the issue, to host a Root Beer Summit. He can offer the boys A&W or IBC, while I am sure he will opt for a light Root Beer.

Possibly you could talk more about the teachable issue that happened in Congress with Representative Joe Wilson. It is important that we as a Nation understand that if you disagree with a half-black man it is because we are racists. No other President in history has ever had a member of Congress disagree with them openly. It could not be because we think that the Country is headed in the wrong direction, don't want the Government to control Health Care, or that the President lied.

Another teachable moment could come from the VMA incident. I am sure that Kanye West was not sincere in his outburst about Taylor Swift. After all Kanye has always been a fine outstanding young man who has never been outspoken or divisive in the past. Oh yeah, he really didn't mean it when he said that "President Bush does not care about Black people" either. I suppose the lesson here is that Taylor Swift was not the victim but Beyonce was because Kanye like her video better.

Your wisdom is world renowned. There are many Nations whom I am sure would send representatives to proclaim your peaceful ways. Countries with whom you have worked to build relations with like Iran , Palestine, and Lybia. I believe that Israel would also like to say a few words about you. I'm sure that comments of your defense of President's Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, and George W. Bush are somewhere on-line, I just can't seem to find them now.


Thank you for pointing out our Racist ways,

9/11

Dear Leftists, Liberals, Anti-Americans, Bruce Springsteen, & Barbara Streisand

Please take a moment today on 9/11 to recognize that innocent Americans lost their lives. Regardless of what Van Jones says about "who" caused "what" to happen it was a tragic event in American history. Put out the flame on your American Flags, stop throwing darts at your W. posters, and quit protesting in front of schools that allow children to take a moment of silence today.

Today is a time that we should all be able to put away our political differences and realize that we share the same living space. We may not quite breathe the same air since your is filtered through your smog masks, drink the exact same water because your is from melting polar caps, or live in the same neighborhood because your neighborhood covenants will not allow pickups, deer stands, or firearms. But, as different as we may be, we share one thing in common that no one can take away from us no matter how hard you try. We are Americans.

Our forefathers gave their lives so that you could call our soldiers murderers. So that your pro healthcare reform protesters could bite the fingers off of our anti health care reform protesters. So that you could burn the nation symbol of the government that protects you from the people in the world who really want to do you harm.

Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules of waiting on your welfare checks and protesting to protect our freedoms from our President.

44/57

Dear Speaker Pelosi,

A House divided against itself cannot stand nor can it pass a bill. You are unwilling to reach across the aisle with anything except a hammer and sickle to swipe at Republicans. Your leadership style of being bitter and shrill has done far less than gain the respect, loyalty, and adoration of Americans. It is with this that we have our greatest chance to see your crowning achievement come crashing down around you and President Obama.

The far left members of your party, including yourself, want Government controlled Health Care. You realize that a nation dependant on it's government for goods and services cannot exist with liberal Democrats who seek to create the Greatest Welfare Nation on earth. Seeking to justify your position, you understand that only by destroying economic freedom can Congress wield absolute power which is not given to you by the Constitution. However if you try to come to a more moderate proposal then you will lose their support.

The moderate members of your party understand that this is not a good option. They live in more conservative districts and represent Americans who actually have to get up every morning and work for a living instead of a hard day of waiting by the mailbox for the check to arrive. Moderate Democrats as well as Republicans are needed to achieve your goal regardless of your distain for them. They believe that the Health Care system is broken also, but the way to fix it is by careful reform and not a shotgun.

Never take a bill to the floor unless you know the outcome in advance. I suppose that you could get ACORN to register 80 new House Members to vote from the 20 million illegal immigrants that you want to cover. This is coming at a time when the approval rating for Congress and the President are falling faster than the value of the dollar. The Presidents popularity is so low that he could not even get Elementary School children to listen to him speak and the middle school children who were watching were listening to their iPhones.

It has been said that "those who forget the lessons of history are doomed to repeat it", to this I say welcome to 1976. Democrats have a way of forgetting the past however. Need we remind you "We need to stand up and say we're Americans, and we have the right to debate and disagree with any administration."

Thank you for your service to this country and don't let the door hit you on the way out,

Lying liars and their lies

Dear Democrats,

Well, it seems that once again instead of having a meaningful discussion as you always claim to desire, it has come to everyone's attention that you have not been entirely honest. We all know the mantra "Bush Lied" as we have seen it a million times by now, but it seems that you have your own "colorful" versions of truth. It now seems that not only have your politicians been caught with their hands in the cookie jar, but they are soliciting assistance where needed.

Town hall Meetings
You claim that the angry citizens at town hall meetings that oppose healthcare are all planted by the Republican Party. How about the cases where people who support healthcare reform are planted? Case: Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee's town hall meeting on health care in the Fifth Ward of Houston. The speaker identifies herself as a physician who does not live in Jackson Lee's district then continues to support healthcare reform from an "educated" perspective. However, her name does not appear in the database maintained by the Texas Medical Board, which licenses all doctors in Texas. Her name however does appear as a Grad Student at University of Houston and an intern for a non-profit. Mayer is listed as having a BA in Psychology/Sociology and expected to graduate with her masters in social work in 2010. She also was listed as under that name as a delegate in Texas for Barack Obama in April of 2008. At least have the plant use an alias like "Heywood Jablome".

The Blame Game
It seems that acts against you in protest are even done by your own people. It seems that the 2008 attack on a Denver Democratic Party Headquarters has been solved. It seems that the perpetrator was a former Democratic Volunteer. August 2009, the (Congressman John) Dingell operation grabbed a black guy, gave him a sign, "Obama is Hitler," had him parading around outside in front of television cameras, and then after the meeting he ditches the sign and is passing out Dingell information. I thought labor guys had restrictions on how many roles they could perform at one rally.

Endorsements
If you are going to use endorsements to lie, make sure that both parties are aware. President Obama "pimping" his Obamacare package said: "We have the AARP on board because they know this is a good deal for our seniors." Then about 60000 senior citizens quit AARP due to the group's support for a health care overhaul. So the AARP has to make a statement that while in support of overhauling the health care system, hasn’t endorsed any bill.

History
There has been a great precedence of lying set by your leadership and it seems that there is nothing that lying about that is off the table. Remember "I threw my medals on the White House lawn." "Ribbons are the same things as medals. I still have my medals." "I gave back, I can't remember, 6, 7, 8, 9 medals." "I'm proud of my medals." "I threw medals of two other veterans who could not attend the protest." Or, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman." Then we have the classics. "[I] had full intention of reporting it."

It has gone past the old joke, "How do you know a Democrat is lying?" "His lips are moving." The media has now stepped up it's assistance in defrauding the public. President Obama seems to have no end to the number of "Specials" that he will put on the television, radio, in the paper, or in the internet. You seem to believe that if you say something enough times then it is true.

Possibly you are just "truth intolerant". Maybe try spending some time outside in fresh air without your pollution masks would do some good. And if the pollution is bothering you, then put out the fire on the American Flag you are holding. Whatever the case may be, remember group therapy is not productive at William Ayers house.

Healthscare

Mr. President,

You have assembled a public relations team in an attempt to make sure that your message is heard on Health Care. You have even set-up an e-mail address where people can report their fellow Americans for giving "false" information about Health Care. Of all of the "misinformation" that is being spread why do you not hold yourself and your team accountable for telling the truth?

Timing
You have stated that this is "our" best opportunity to get health care reform passed. Why? Is it because the American public has a less favorable opinion of their current health care coverage than they do of yourself and Congress? If Americans are so unhappy with their current health care plan, then why do you keep stressing that if they like their current health care they can keep it? The real truth is that now you have power and the numbers and you are afraid that a Republican controlled Congress would make you a "Lame Duck". You know, but will not say, that this is the real motivation for pushing a bill through without anyone having the chance to read it.

Cost
"I have also pledged that health insurance reform will not add to our deficit over the next decade ... and I mean it." Really? Then how are you planning on paying for all of the additional converge? Are you and Congress going to take furlough days? How about all of the staffers? Maybe you can just quit hiring "Czars" and taking trips with your family. According to the Congressional Budget Office the Senate version of the healthcare legislation "would result in a net increase in federal deficits of about $1.0 trillion for fiscal years 2010 through 2019," While the House version would increase the deficit less, in part because of a massive $583 billion tax increase built into to the measure. How does this compare with what you repeatedly vowed "you will not see any of your taxes increase one single dime." Maybe it will be a "hidden" tax so we will not notice it.

Death Panels
Both you and the media were quick to jump on Sarah Palin for her comment: "will have to stand in front of Obama's 'death panel' so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their 'level of productivity in society,' whether they are worthy of health care." Maybe "Death Panel" was a harsh term, but how far is it from the truth? You yourself have said that you grandmother’s hip-replacement surgery during the final weeks of her life made him wonder whether expensive procedures for the terminally ill reflect a "sustainable model" for health care. Your comment was that "you just get into some very difficult moral issues when considering whether to give my grandmother, or everybody else’s aging grandparents or parents, a hip replacement when they’re terminally ill." How is that different that Palin's comment? Except when she made her comment all of the Democrats had their fingers in their ears going "la la la" at the top of their lungs.

Single Payer
In 2003 at the AFL-CIO Conference, you clearly stated "I Happen To Be A Proponent Of A Single-Payer Universal Healthcare Plan." 2004, the Associated Press reported the stance of all the candidates on universal health care. "Obama says he supports the idea of universal health care but does not think a single-payer government system is feasible. He says the government should be the health care provider of last resort for the uninsured." In 2006 you noted "single-payer as the hope of the left, while those on the right wanted a market-based approach." Oh no, not free market! 2007 the Chicago Tribune reported, "Obama has pledged that, if elected, all Americans would have health-care coverage by the end of his first term. He has said he is reluctant to switch to a 'single-payer' national health insurance system because of the difficulty in making a quick transition from the employer-based private system." July 1, 2009 you said in Annandale, Va "For us to transition completely from an employer-based system of private insurance to a single-payer system could be hugely disruptive, and my attitude has been that we should be able to find a way to create a uniquely American solution to this problem that controls costs but preserves the innovation that is introduced in part with a free-market system." Flip flop, flippie to the flippie, the flip, flip a flop, and you don't stop. Remember as you said "UPS and FedEx are doing just fine. It's the Post Office that's always having problems." The Post Office is on track to lose a staggering $7 billion this year alone. How will a government-run health care plan manage taxpayer resources more efficiently?

Who will be covered
So now that we have determined that if you are ill it does not make sense to provide treatment. But abortion will be covered. I guess it's a kill-kill situation. But, let's look at who will be covered. The "rumor from the right is that you want to cover illegal immigrants under your Health Care plan. However, you have made it clear that is not true. On July 21, 2009 you said "First of all, I'd like to create a situation where we're dealing with illegal immigration, so that we don't have illegal immigrant. And we've got legal residents or citizens who are eligible for the plan. And I want a comprehensive immigration plan that creates a pathway to achieve that." So, the plan is not to cover illegal immigrants by making them legal? What about before you can achieve that? "The one exception that I think has to be discussed is how are we treating children." So, we're not going to cover illegal immigrants until they are legal by the wave of your magic wand, but we will cover their children who are illegal also? That sure is defending the border and keeping America strong.

Opposing Views
Opposition to your Health Care reform has not been received well. People with opposing views have been called Racists. It seems that your only debate occurs between people who already agree with you. Well, that is except for the planted questions in the town hall meetings. I suppose that you cannot afford to run in to another "Joe" the Plumber or actually say what you think. Remember a quote "I'm sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and disagree with this administration, somehow you're not patriotic. We need to stand up and say we're Americans, and we have the right to debate and disagree with any administration."

Like any other Liberal issue, you seem to think who ever speaks the loudest or a spot on National Prime Time television gets the final say. Remember, you won office but will have to answer to the public at the end of this term. You have a Democrat controlled House and Senate, but they will have to answer to the public in 2010. Oh and by the way, have you reported yourself to flag@whitehouse.gov yet for all of your inaccurate statements?

Thank you for bringing Change,

Obamacare

Thirty-five minutes in to his newest infomercial and we have two of the best placed faked questions ever.

http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2009/08/11/live-blogging-obamas-town-hall-meeting-2/

First question from a state representative and a senior citizen. He notes that he’s on Medicare, and he likes it. He asks if Republicans “refuse to participate in a reasonable way” then shouldn’t Democrats pass a bill without them?

Second question from a young student about how kids know what’s true, and points to the protest signs outside the school where the town hall is taking place. “The rumor that’s been circulating a lot lately is this idea that somehow the House of Representatives voted for ‘Death Panels’ that will basically pull the plug on grandma because we decided it’s too expensive for her to live anymore. Somehow it’s gotten spun in to ‘Death Panels’–I am not in favor of that,” he quips.“In fairness, the underlying argument has to be addressed” which is if you make the system more efficient, care is rationed.

We all know that Obama ran in to "Joe" the Plumber once and will not make that mistake again, which is why he is in Portsmouth, N.H. in a controlled environment where, I am sure, they screened all of the questions and people asking them. Liberals only like to have a "fair" debate when the other side is not there.

Happy Belated Birthday to President Obama

I figured that a little late was appropriate as you he never release anything on schedule. How are the Budget Numbers looking anyways? Maybe if you report them using the metric system you can make them look smaller.

It is good to see that the stress' of office allow for some down time. Things like "date night" and flying low over New York for a better view are good for a family and build strong bonds. Things like the Economy, Health Care, Budget, North Korea, Afghanistan, Cuba, Venezuela, Iran, the Auto Industry, and Jobs can all wait a day.

Last year you were out campaigning on your birthday. Your birthday kicked off "Energy Week" where you promised the creation of five million new green jobs. I suppose that is a little behind schedule also. You have the funding from devoting nearly $60 billion of the stimulus package to create a new green-based economy, so what's the hold up? Apparently according to the "Green Czar" no one can yet agree on what a green job actually is, or what the definition of "is" is.

All of that aside, we can take this time to put our differences away. We can take this time to reflect on your birth which gave us you as our President. Be it in Hawaii or where ever else it may have taken place. A White House Birthday is a special event and even though you were not the first President to have a birthday in the White House, you were the first President to have Congress declare where you were born.

I am glad that you got something nice for yourself for your Birthday. Bowling a 144 is a lot better than bowling 37, or something like that, back in the Pennsylvania Democratic primary. I suppose that already had an Ipod and the top 25 out of the 2007 list of AFI's top 100 greatest movies of all time on Region 1 DVD.

So Mr. President when you closed your eyes and blew out the candles, what did you wish for? World Peace, Obamacare to pass the Senate this year, Biden to shut up, Republicans to go away, Fox News to stop reporting on your gaffs? Maybe you just took a moment to be thankful that you never ate any of Michelle's vegetables from the garden.

Here's wishing you a Happy Birthday and many more (just not many more of them in the White House).


Best wishes,

Too Big to Fail

"Too Big to Fail" is the Obama Administration's excuse for taking over the private sector. The phrase has been broadly applied to refer to the government's policy to "bail out" corporations. Then replace the CEO, determine the new future of the corporation, eliminate jobs, and say that they are protecting our economy. With Congress and the President carelessly making decisions about the future of our Country, when do We the People decide that Our Government is Too Big to Fail? Let's see how our government is doing so far.

Economy - FAIL
We were warned about the stimulus bill that if it did not get passed then "unemployment could reach as high as 8 percent." Today the unemployment rate stands at about 9.5 percent. The good news is that recovery.gov estimates that over the next 2 years California will have 396,000 jobs created/saved due to the stimulus package. Which is it, created or saved? Compare that number to the 800,000 jobs lost in California already. The good news is that the result of the bad economy is that California's congressional delegation is unlikely to grow and could even lose a seat.

Foreign Policy - FAIL
President Obama is so committed to stopping the foreign threats of North Korea and Iran's nuclear programs that he preempted Hillary Clinton's scheduled foreign policy address with his own on health care. What else is there that we can do about foreign threats that we haven not already tried? We have already adopted tougher language, approved new and tougher sanctions, and we already apologized for the two journalists held by North Korea. Maybe Iran and North Korea will agree to stop their weapons programs in an unilateral disarmament treaty.

Environment - FAIL
After last year's headline that over 650 International Scientists, including Nobel Prize winners, dissenting with Man-Made Global Warming claims, Congress is fast at work on Cap-and-Trade. So, under a cap-and-trade system, government sets a cap on the total amount of carbon that can be emitted nationally. It then distributes or auctions off emissions allowances that total the cap. Does this also count all of the C02 being emitted by Congress while coming up with stupid ideas? So, out of all of the possible pollutants we are going to protect ourselves from Carbon dioxide, which we emit. I guess Nancy Pelosi was sick they day they discussed photosynthesis in school.

Healthcare - Desperately wanting to FAIL
Now that the economy is back on track and there are no foreign threats, the Obama administration is free to deal with their largest domestic socialization project, Public Healthcare. Should they succeed, tens of millions of Americans will potentially be joining a new public insurance program and the federal government will increasingly be involved in treatment decisions. So, not only will you have to wait longer at the doctor, the new Health Czar will decide if you get a rectal exam before Congress can pass any more laws.

Immigration Reform - FAIL to act
President Obama once said on the campaign trail, "We need immigration reform that will secure our borders." Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY) unveiled the major components of comprehensive immigration reform legislation headed for a debate this fall. Senator Schumer takes the hard stance in his first principal that "Illegal immigration is wrong." Now that we are clear that Illegal Immigration is possibly illegal, how can we fix it? Senator Schumer states: "All illegal aliens present in the United States on the date of enactment of our bill must quickly register their presence with the United States Government, and submit to a rigorous process of converting to legal status and earning a path to citizenship" and future voters.

I suppose that being Too Big to Fail is different from being Too Big and Failing. However the Democrats are really trying to blur the line.

Multiple Media

What do Billy Mays , Michael Jackson, and Farrah Fawcett have in common? The news would rather talk about them than the President, U.S. Congress, or Judge Sotomayor. They want you to stop and think, "Where was I when Elvis died?" not "Where was I when my Civil Liberties died?" for those of you paying more attention to pop culture than real life I have some breaking news for you. Bush is no longer President, stop blaming him. Unemployment is up, contrary to what the "news" reported Obama saying. North Korea wants to kill us. U.S. President Barack Obama said on Monday the coup that ousted Honduran President Manuel Zelaya was illegal and would set a "terrible precedent" of transition by military force unless it was reversed.

Do not get me wrong -- President Oabma is not being under-covered in the news. We know that he has a new dog, not from the pound like he suggested. We know that he likes to go on dates with his wife that cost over one hundred thousand dollars at a time. We know that his Grandmother was a "typical white woman". We know what church he attends, or attended, even though he didn't know any of the sermons given by his pastor for 20 years. We know that he will allow five days of public comment before signing any bills, oops he did it again.

The U.S. House just passed the single largest tax increase in U.S. history. Congress wants the right to control anything that emits Carbon Dioxide, including but not limited to: , Coal, & Cows. Oh, did I mention that we emit Carbon Dioxide also? Or that trees and plants need it to live? It would seem that the 1,500 page bill passing (219-212) would be a little more worthy of mentioning. Now Al Gore can sell his "Carbon Off-Sets , " whatever that really is. I suppose that Obama is keeping his promise that "Energy Prices Will Skyrocket Under My Cap and Trade Plan"* Also, good job passing the "Official" apology for slavery. Let's see, slavery Officially ended when the 13th Amendment to the Constitution was ratified by the states in 1865, the 14th Amendment provided for Civil Rights in 1868, the 15th Amendment banned racial restrictions on voting in 1870. So, everyone who was directly affected by conditions in the United States before this time period is dead! Let's move on already.

This just in 'Transformers' tops global box office. Wait, falling for media distractions again. Well it made the headlines anyway

Let's make a new law. In order to be a Supreme Court Justice, you have to have less than 50% of your cases overturned by the Supreme Court. Attention Judge Sotomayor, discrimination is as discrimination does. You do not have to be a minority in the total global population to be discriminated against. Oh wait, there are more than 6.5 billion people and nearly 2/3 of them are Asians. I suppose the White fire fighters were minorities after all. The Equal Protection Clause, part of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, provides equal protection and does not make room for a "wise Latina woman" whom would judge better than white male.

So, you stick with the top headline on CNN "Jackson's mom gets guardianship of his kids" and I'll stick with "Target: Hawaii". Thanks Wall Street Journal for bringing news. Now go back to reading the complete coverage of Michael Jackson's death.

Congratulations Judge Sonia Sotomayor

For being the first Hispanic Supreme Court Justice Nominee. Largely due to George W. Bush's possible candidates of Emilio Garza and Alberto Gonzales were threatened with filibuster by Harry Reid and the Democrats before they were actually nominated. Also, for possibly being the third female justice to server on the court. Harry Reid suggested that President Bush nominate Harriet Miers for Justice Sandra Day O'Connor's position, but then Democrats threatened to block her nomination as well.

This was not the first time that your name has come up for consideration. In 2005, when Judge O'Connor announced retirement, RINOs Bill Frist and Arlen Specter along with Democrat leaders Harry Reid and Patrick Leahy presented President Bush with your name as one of their choice of "moderate" Hispanic federal judges that they could accept. However, National Review, a conservative magazine, suggested that you nomination from the Democrats was in bad faith because you were too liberal for a conservative president to seriously consider. I suppose next to President Obama's normal company, you are "moderate".

You have had a long experienced career as a judge. You have also had previous experience with the Supreme Court as you have had five decisions as an appellate judge go before the High Court. Granted, that three of them were overturned. However, you still have one more case decision headed to the High Court, but this one doesn't look like it will help your winning percentage.

Democrats are pushing for an accelerated timetable for you confirmation. This falls in line with President Obama's actual application of his promise of a five-day public review period after Congress passes a bill before he signs it. With everything that was hidden in the 1132-page Omnibus Bill, we have to wonder what surprises you hold in store for us.

Prior to your nomination President Obama pledged "I will seek someone who understands that justice isn’t about some abstract legal theory or footnote in a case book, it is also about how our laws affect the daily realities of people’s lives." This gave us insight to his standards for a nominee. Possibly leaving room for a justice who would prefer to legislate from the bench than interoperate the constitutionality of a law or court ruling.

Justice O'Connor has said "that a wise old man and wise old woman will reach the same conclusion in deciding cases." Your retort to her comment was "I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life". I am not certain where heritage determines your duties.

In closing, it is with this letter of congratulations I will leave some parting words. I hope that when the time comes you use all of your wisdom and previous experiences when reviewing cases that come before you. Especially when the case is regarding Texas' Sovereignty Under 10th Amendment and any other state that wishes to affirm the Constitutional Limitations of the Federal Government.


Thank you for your service to OUR Country the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave,

A Thank you to President Obama

Mr. President,

You have given hope to the citizens of the United States as well as the world. With this historic election, you have shown that in America anything can be possible. Now that we have moved past the first 100 days, we can get a picture of your vision for our Country. We can see what you promised us in your message of change.

Thank you putting Immigration Reform on your to-do list. I understand with the current economical situation that securing our boarders and deporting Illegal Immigrants cannot be at the forefront of items to take care of, especially with unemployment increasing. Your proposed stance of bringing illegal immigrants into the legal system by recognizing that they violated the law, and imposing fines and other penalties to fit the offense will surely deter any future lawlessness. Besides with GM moving $1 billion in their government financial aid to their Brazil operations, maybe the illegal immigrants will follow. I am sure that when the time comes you will again call on advisors to break out in to focus groups and come up with solutions.

Thank you for your work on the job market. You said that the recovery plan will save or create about 3.5 million jobs. But I must inquire, how do you quantify which jobs were not lost? The National Unemployment Rate is now about 8.9%. 539,000 jobs were lost in April while 663,000 jobs were lost in March. But I must inquire, are you holding the big savings for November Sweeps?

Thank you for bringing a new light of focus on the National Debt. On the campaign trail, you said that President Bush was practicing "reckless" economic policies that are "mortgaging our children's future on a mountain of debt." Well, the deficit has changed. It Increased. In 2004, President Bush set a budget with a record $521 billion dollars in deficit. Your estimates for the 2010 budget call for nearly $1.2 trillion in new deficit. Which will actually be down from the CBO estimates of $1.8 trillion gap this year. Now, that's change we can not only believe in but that we can also see.

Thank you for working on foreign relations. You sought to bring a changed world view of United States. You have reached out to Nations that we have not been on the best of terms with to increase their perception of us. This has apparently already begun to work. Now countries like Iran and North Korea are no longer concerned about US involvement in their actions. In fact, Iran is sending warships in to international waters, while North Korea is testing their long range missiles. Without you, this would not have been possible.

Thank you for acting swiftly in your judgment. Jimmy Carter took a little over three years to create the image of the U.S. as a confused and soft power, you have managed to do that in your first 100 days. I understand the necessity to act urgently on important matters, a five day waiting period should only apply to handguns not to laws. After all, I am sure that you thoroughly review every bill and remove all pork before signing them. I am also sure that the American people can feel safe from special interest groups. On Jan. 1 there were 4,611 political action committees, 9 percent more than the 4,234 PACs a year earlier. But with your promise on reducing the role of lobbyists, we can rest assured that they will not be in the Halls of Congress trying to influence decisions since your lifting the ban on former registered lobbyists working in the administration.

However with your previous experience in community affairs, I am certain that we are headed in a direction. I look forward to long lines at the gas pump, doctors office, and unemployment office. I can tell my grandchildren about how there were 50 States until the "Great Unifier" came along and they separated.


Thank you for bringing Change,

An open letter to the youth regarding the 2008 Presidential election

Thank you for turning out to vote in your first Presidential Election. I am sure that many of you have never followed or been interested in politics before and chose this occasion to be your first experience. You probably voted against your parents thinking that your youth made you more aware of the new global environment than their years of experience in life.

Thank you for protecting the illegal combatants who are detained in Guantanamo Bay. Ensuring their Constitutional Rights IS more important than your right to live. Even though they waged a war against innocent unsuspecting civilians in the United States, they themselves have been mistreated. The inhumane torture that they were subjected to of being gently suspended on a blanket while having small amounts of water poured on their heads is far worse than crashing planes in to buildings in urban highly populated areas.

Thank you for giving Congress a Democratic Majority. Now they are free to pass legislation increasing the National Deficit by far more than it has ever been after they campaigned on a balanced budget and reducing the deficit. Nancy Pelosi is now free from any charges of perjury from only being informed about CIA interrogation practices rather than being briefed on them. Now we can move forward with prosecuting the former administration for keeping the Country safe from Made Caused Destruction by means of the Over-seas Contingency Operation. It is more important that Bush lied about the foreign intelligence that we received to get us involved for a war for oil than the Democrats telling any partial untruths about Our military harassing and murdering innocent civilians.

Thank you for helping keep our boarders open. For too long illegal immigrants have tried to dangerously cross our boarders and exist in our country without following the legal path to citizenship. Now all of those people can live without fear of being sent back to their country of origin and receive government assistance in the form of healthcare, childhood education, and food stamps to which they do not contribute.

Thank you for helping to reduce Carbon Dioxide levels. We should not be responsible for providing a resource to plants for their existence. The earth has never regulated itself in the past from occurrences like volcanic explosions until government came along to test the air quality. Maybe now we can find a way to tax the production of oxygen from the carbon offset farms.

Thank you for expanding healthcare. Now non-citizens have expanded healthcare coverage available to them at no cost. I suppose in this ever shrinking job market you all have already found steady employment to pay for the services that they are receiving. Businesses like hospitals should not be in the practice of making enough money to cover both their operating expenses and payroll when we have big government to decide who will receive healthcare, when, and to what extent.

Maybe now that all of the world's problems have been resolved we can focus on education. It is clear that in this country that we need reform. We not only need to be more competitive in the areas of math and science with the rest of the world, but it is now clear that we need reform in American History class as well.
