OMG best przdent eva

Well, you did it, America. You gave us a rock star in the White House. Thanks, so much for your participation. Thanks for nothing. Sorry, do I sound bitter? No use crying over spilled milk, I guess. Now we all just have to deal with it and (assuming capitalism is still somewhat intact in 4 years) deal with the issue in the next election.

If I had written this blog in December or even January, I would probably say something here like, “Prove me wrong, Mr. Obama. Prove us all wrong.” But, sadly, here we are in September and he is just making me more right everyday. In 9 months this guy has brought admitted communists to the White House to advise him, attempted to completely socialize the best health care system in the world and he hasn’t even stopped campaigning! Van Jones finally resigned this weekend which is good for him because I would hate to see what the “angry mobs” of conservatives would do if he didn’t… probably make big signs and peacefully protest somewhere and get no news coverage… oh, wait, that is already happening. What are we supposed to do? Bomb buildings? No thanks. That’s more Bill Ayers style and he is just a nut job terrorist… right, Mr. Obama?

I have a bumper sticker on my (Iraqi oil guzzling) SUV that says “How’s that whole hopey-changey thing working out for you?”  The “change” he making is scary change. So scary it is comical. Well, it would be if it weren’t true… what IS comical is that a (dangerous far right wing extremist) conservative like myself wishes EVERY DAY that Hillary Clinton was the president. But, no. Thank you people who never voted before and college kids and people who never EVER paid any attention to the world around them. Thanks so much for rolling out of bed before 2 p.m. for the 1st time in your adult life. You may now go back to not caring about any real issues. I waited in that voting line for 2 hours in the rain with people who said things like, “See? This is why I don’t ever vote.” Yeah. I’m sure that’s why. As if it was ever like that before the 2nd coming of the Messiah.

I’m not saying that all the people who voted for Obama are a drain on society. That is absurd. I’m not even saying they are all people who don’t care, but a HUGE portion of those people are people who know nothing about the world they live in and simply wanted to be able to say they voted for Obama because it was so “in” to do so. Look, I’m in favor of making history and the history that was made by electing the first black president is not lost on me. I think that aspect of it all is great. But, people, he was the WRONG GUY for the job! Oh, but McCain was… old. Yeah, look at him, he’s… old.

Well, you got your change. We have a dude in the White House that Hollywood-types seem to think we need to “serve”.  What the hell? He is supposed to SERVE the people! Not the other way around. I, for one, will sleep with 1 eye open to see to it that capitalism is not ignored and we are not just ”led to it” like the genius Bill Maher would like. My GOD I wish we had Hillary. Honestly, it doesn’t even make me shudder when I say it anymore. Now THAT is creepy.

Race Baiting for the Greater Good

You got to hand it to Obama. He is the only person who can piss on our shoes and tell us it’s raining with a smile on his face.

Take, for example, this whole mess about his minister, Jeremiah Wright. Wow. What a “man of God” this guy is. Forget all that “Love thy neighbor” stuff. The New Testiment is apparently SO outdated. The only thing more amazing to me than the hateful tripe this guy spews out, is how many people go to his church every week to witness it.

The optimist in me tells me that most of the people in the congregation don’t really believe most of what Wright says. The optimist in me hasn’t really got much to base that opinion on except that there aren’t any race riots going on in Chicago as we speak. 

My more logical (more outspoken) side tells me that the good Reverend is preaching a message of hate to a volatile population. He is inciting anger in a place like a church where he should be offering inspiration. Sure, Wright isn’t the only grade A dumb-ass in America preaching hate and politics from the pulpit. He just happens to be the only grade A dumb-ass that is the Barack Obama’s spiritual mentor. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/custom/religion/chi-070121-relig_wright,1,271630.story?page=1&coll=chi-religion-topheadlines&ctrack=1&cset=true

 If Obama wants to belong to a radical church with a racist minister, then, fine. But, don’t stand there and talk about “hope” and “change” and “bringing the country together” and then sit in a pew every Sunday morning and hear about how America is the evil empire and the white man is holding you down! You want to be the President and you are an active member of a church that preaches hate about ”white America” and is more concerned with South Africa than it is America? The church gave an award to Louis Farrakhan, for Pete’s sake. Obama likened Wright to  an “old uncle” with whom he doesn’t always agree. But, the only problem with that warm and fuzzy image is, he’s not his uncle. You don’t get to pick your uncle, you get to pick your minister! The church you attend is a representation of your faith and belief system. Is this the kind of faith and belief system that we want guiding the future of our great nation?

I’m not even going to bother saying what if it was a white minster saying these things about black people. I’m not even going to say that if this was McCain’s minister he would have had to drop out of the presidential race already. I’ll just say this, if Obama wanted to stop the rumors about him being a muslim, well, mission accomplished, my friend.

Fight the power, kill whitey, I mean…. God damn BLESS America.

Hope and Change: the Ultimate Resume Replacement

I really HOPE we can CHANGE the focus of this Presidential election to issues that actually matter.

I am so tired of hearing about HOPE and CHANGE from Obama. If all we needed was HOPE then you would be reading my blog from the Washington Post website and I would be writing it from Maui.

Obama’s campaign is based on these 2 words that mean relatively nothing. Obama has no record to back up his Presidential aspirations. He is a Junior Senator. He has yet to complete 1 term in the U.S. Senate. All he has is a couple of buzz words and a nice smile. But, nonetheless, half of America is following this empty suit with a 1 page resume like he is the second coming.

Why? Because we are Americans. We don’t like things that make us think. We don’t read instructions or nutrition labels and we sure the hell don’t over think our politics. We want it given to us just as plain and simple as you can make it. Some will say that this is why John McCain’s so-called “Straight Talk” works so well. Some would be correct. But, the difference is, when McCain is questioned about the issues, he has real answers about his policies and his platform. Barack Obama has “HOPE” and ”CHANGE”. 

Change is not always a good thing. If change comes at the hand of someone who is practically a communist, we may not be so in favor of it. Change for the sake of change is just dangerous. But, the truth is, Obama probably wouldn’t CHANGE a whole lot of anything. Sure, he says he would, and that is so cute how he thinks he will just go into the oval office and overthrow Capitalism, but, honestly, we wouldn’t stand by and let much of that happen. Then where does all that CHANGE go? Right out the window, that’s where. 

Let’s consider the other, more frightening, possibility. Obama does begin to change things in the way that he sees fit and all of us “average Americans” aren’t really paying attention. (NO! Not us!) Then what? Before we know it we have an immediate troop withdrawal, socialized health care, a massive illegal alien invasion and taxes so high that we actually envy Canada.

According to the National Journal’s 27th annual vote ratings, Obama was THE MOST liberal member of senate in 2007.  http://nj.nationaljournal.com/voteratings/ Wow. The most liberal! More liberal than Ted Kennedy and, yes, more liberal than Hillary Clinton. Talk about a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Maybe the question we should be asking is not if America can handle having a black President. Maybe the question we should be asking is if Barack Obama can handle being the President. Take a look at his proposed budget. Here you go, kids. If you want an example of a nanny state, this is it. http://www.gop.com/obamaspendometer.htm  Forget working hard for what you have. Forget the “American way”. It kind of makes Bill Clinton look like a total fascist, doesn’t it? I, for one, would rather move to France than hand my paycheck over to Obama for all of his social projects.

 I can only HOPE some people read up on Obama and CHANGE their votes. In the meantime, I’ll just happily sit back with John McCain and watch the democrats beat the piss out of each other a while longer. If it’s one thing I know about the democrats it’s that they’d rather destroy each other and push their fringe left agenda, than win.  Oh, yeah, that’s the stuff conservative dreams are made of.

Terrorism and Arizona- The REAL Immigration Problem

Never have I felt more like telling John McCain and George W. Bush to stick something in their pipes and smoke it!

If you don’t know what I am referring to, perhaps you didn’t catch the latest (largely IGNORED) story about terrorists targeting an Army base… IN ARIZONA! http://www.washingtontimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20071126/NATION/111260034/1001 

With the aid of Mexican drug cartels, possibly up to 60 Afghan and Iraqi terrorists were to be smuggled into the U.S. through underground tunnels and were planning an attack on Fort Huachuca, just outside of Tucson, Arizona.

This story hits a little close to home for me… litterally. Tucson is my home town. All of my immediate family lives there and most of my good friends. My best friend lives only a few miles from Fort Huachuca and her husband (who is in Iraq right now) is based out of there.

Here is the real problem with illegal immigration.

I am from Tucson. It is a border city. No one knows how dangerous open borders are more than someone who lived with them. But, yet, if I say that I am against illegal immigration, that just makes me a racist, doesn’t it? It couldn’t possibly be because I love this country and want to keep it secure! No! The public would rather beleive what the left spoon feeds them! That if I am against amnesty for undocumented ILLEGAL aliens, then I must own a pointy white hat! This kind of thinking and this kind of generallizing is the real danger. Political correctness is killing America.

 I am not a racist.

 I shouldn’t have to say that before I say that I want a damn WALL and the National Guard at the border of my country! I am not anti-Mexican. I am pro-America! Sure, when I lived it Tucson, it pissed me off as much as any tax payer to go into the Emergency room that 1/2 of Mexico decides to use as their own free health clinic. My friends would tell me the stories of their elementary school age children getting their homework pages sent home to them in Spanish! It infuriated me when my mother and 2 brothers were nearly killed in a car accident because they were hit by an illegal Mexican immigrant with no driver’s license and no car insurance. I hear the stories everyday (no thanks to the main stream media) about the illegal immigrants who commit all kinds of heinous crimes. http://www.immigrationshumancost.org/text/crimevictims.html  Of course, this is an outrage!

Let us not forget that immigration policies are put into place to protect Americans, not to harm immigrants. Sometimes, unfortunately, well meaning people do get harmed, and that is a shame. And, yes, we all need our lawns mowed and our houses built. But immigration policies are about NATIONAL SECURITY and that should be priority #1!

Write your congressman! Keep the terrorists and drug dealers out of your country!  Don’t let the military base in your town be the one that they sucessfully attack!

Jena 6 March

So, guess where I was this weekend? If you said Tampa, Florida you would be wrong. I was in Washington, D.C.

I was minding my own business and enjoying a day in our nation’s capitol. It was chilly so I thought I would duck into the National Archives and take a look-see. As I was leaving and trying to make my way back to my hotel at M and 22nd, I saw a large group of people crowding the street. I decided to walk that way to see what was going on only to be caught in the middle of the Jena 6 march around the Department of Justice. Needless to say, my blonde head was really sticking out in the crowd. I wasn’t alarmed. I wasn’t afraid for my life or belongings and, believe it or not, Mr. O’Reilly, “There wasn’t one person (in Sylvia’s) who was screaming, ‘M-Fer, I want more iced tea.’ ” People were thanking me for coming out to support their cause even though I carried no sign and wore no “End Racism Now” t-shirt. Unlike Mr. Bill O’Reilly, I wasn’t surprised. I am just happy to see people with a cause.

I believe in their cause to some degree… not enough to march for it, but, hey, when in Rome…

The truth is, I didn’t feel the “white guilt” that maybe I am supposed to feel for being a southern white girl accidentally swept into a crowd of marchers that I couldn’t escape from for about a block. I didn’t even feel guilty for just trying to get out of there and get back to the Ritz Carlton. I did nothing wrong to these fine folks and I expected them to do nothing wrong to me. For the most part, they were singing and smiling and laughing. They weren’t the angry mob that I read about the next day in the paper. Maybe it is all a matter of perception.

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/11/16/national/main3515365.shtml

It was a little ironic, however, when I went to catch a cab the next morning at the hotel and who is standing behind me waiting for a cab (or limo, most likely) of his own? Say it with me now… The Reverend Al Sharpton, of course… I’m just saying.
