Is it bad to want to be great?

We are hearing all kinds of tales, really, really, tall tales about how good things are. Stay the course; don't make changes in leadership, etc.

If we do as they tell us, we will come to an end, the end of our great country.

There is no chance for survival if we don't restore things to what they should be. Following the Constitution as it was meant to be by our Founding Fathers. Reducing the size of government. Reducing the intrusion of government into our daily lives. Reducing the tax burden to all. Cutting spending. Sending more powers back to the states on local matters. Making sure that our judicial system is interpreting law not creating law by legislating from the bench. Making the lands within a state's boundaries the responsibility of the state and not the property of the federal government with the exception of the National Park System. Education is a local issue. Welfare is a local issue. Freeing up our energy resources so we can become independent of international trade imbalances. Allowing all of our resources to be used in a responsible manner. Protecting our borders and limiting immigration to a level that is controlled by our economy and not by the border crashers. Allowing states to be responsible for healthcare and the availability of it. Allowing health insurance companies to market nationally. Setting guidelines and rules for safety and environmental protection without destroying responsible business practices.

Unfortunately we have a federal government that wants to control everything and be responsible for everyone. Many states are following in their "big brother's" footsteps also.

Tuesday November 2nd is trash day. It is time to throw out the trash. Those who are part of the problem and those who have let the problem grow. It is time to replace the trash with those who love our country as it was meant to be, those who want to restore our country to its greatness and those who will not sell their souls when they get to Washington D.C.

Read, listen, study and find the TRUTH. Don't fall for what is being told to you, study it out and pray about it. Then vote for those that fit your ideas of where we should be heading. The important thing is to vote!

I want the America that I knew growing up to be the one that my children and grandchildren experience. An America that is great and doesn't apologize for being so.

May God Bless us and America!

America does it right!

Even though our country is in big trouble because of our government and current administration's idiotic policies, America, the real America still does it right!

We have some heroes from the U.S.A. in the Chilean Miner Rescue story. Too bad our country hasn't recognized what they did. The capsule was designed by a NASA engineer. The Drill was made by Schramm, Inc. from Pennsylvania. The Drill Bits were made by Center Rock, Inc. located in Berlin, Pennsylvania. The lead driller Jeff Hart ...and his team are from Denver, Colorado. They are on loan from the US Military in Afghanistan where they are drilling water wells for our Forward Operating Bases. They were called in because they are the best at what they do! So where are the White House ceremonies, the press, the parades and the celebrations for the heroes that saved the 33 miners? Oh, sorry, they are from industries that are being vilified by our current administration. Congratulations guys, you were incredible! We know what you did! Thank you from the real America!

Here is a link to more of the story.

It will make you feel proud to be an American!

Vote November 2nd for those that will restore our greatness.

May God bless us and America!

Open your wallet or stand up and be heard!

We have talked about this before and I will keep talking about it until something is done about it. January 2011 is bringing the largest tax increase since World War II to our country. How? The Bush tax cuts are going to be allowed to expire. This will create a huge tax increase on the citizens of our country. Some more than others.

Obama talks about not raising the taxes on those making under $250,000 a year. Yet he is ready to allow that group of people to be hit the hardest by this tax increase. He says he is not raising taxes; it is just a change back to where taxes were previously before the wealthy were benefited by Bush's Tax cuts.

Here are some real facts for you to tell all of the wealth hating people you run into. The wealthiest were given the smallest cuts in the Bush tax cuts! If the cuts are allowed to expire like Obama, The LAME Duck Congress, the Democrats and the Marxist/Socialists that Obama has as economic advisors want, here are what the tax increases will be for a wide spectrum of the income scale:

Annual Income % Increase in taxes after January 2011

$ 10,000 /yr 16%
$ 20,000 18%
$ 30,000 14%
$ 40,000 11%
$ 50,000 10%
$ 75,000 11%
$100,000 11%
$125,000 11%
$150,000 11%
$250,000 11%
$500,000 10%
$750,000 10%
$999,000 10%

Now I may not be one of the world's great mathematicians, but I can certainly see who got the largest tax breaks and who didn't. Consequently, it also shows who is going to get the largest tax increase after the first of the year. Those who can least afford it! If you make under $40,000 per year, you are going to take on the largest of the tax increases. Sounds fair? This is also the group that has had the worst employment numbers over the last two years.

What will this tax increase do? The Obama administration says it will make the wealthiest pay more of their fair share and allow the government to spend more of their money towards social programs that will benefit the middle and lower class. Is this true? NO! What this will do is cripple the economy. When we are finally beginning to get our feet back underneath us from the devastating collapse of our economy in 2008 and 2009, the rug is being yanked out from underneath us again with a tax increase from the tax cut expiration, an increase in costs due to Obamacare and all of the cute little extras jammed into the bill by our dear elected representatives, and worst of all, a slew of new fees, taxes, costs and massive increased spending from just a few of the bills that are on the agenda for our LAME Duck Congress after the elections. Just a preview of a couple of the bills that are to come:

Cap and Trade (Not the name they are using now but still what it is): Will run the costs of energy for each household in the country up by about $3,200 per year so that the Chicago Climate Exchange and the government can make money off from trading of carbon credits. This is worse than anything Enron ever dreamed of. The trading literally brings no decrease in any kind of greenhouse gases or other so called causes of climate change. It just lets there be profits made from trading absolutely nothing other than something that was dreamed up that makes people think they are helping?

Amnesty/Dream Act: A way to allow illegal aliens to become legal status residents in our country. Meaning they will now get full benefit of all of the government programs including Social Security. The cost will be hundreds of billions of dollars per year! The biggest problem I see from this? You will now have a group of low income workers in our country that will quickly become the largest organized labor pool we have ever seen in our country. La Raza and S.E.I.U. will be quickly organizing and recruiting members from what was once the illegal worker pool. Now they will have unions backing their wage requests, demanding benefits, retirement, pensions, work rules etc. You will see a multiplication factor of five to seven times the cost to employers for the same workers that were once illegal aliens. This will create an inflationary era in labor costs in our manufacturing and service industries like we have not seen in the history of our country. If they are replaced by other workers, they will just go on government support programs costing us more than they are already taking! This will become an organized labor nightmare for the employers in our country. The easiest solution? Hire illegal aliens to do the jobs! Right back where we were before the Amnesty! You will see hundreds of thousands of illegals come pouring across our borders to get jobs that the old illegal aliens are too expensive for! No secured borders mean an ongoing illegal alien crisis in our country. The old illegals will be on our unemployment rolls while the new illegals will take the jobs at the old costs again.

The other bills that are on the agenda are ones they haven't been able to get through without causing serious conflict for the Democratic members of Congress also. If they try and pass them before the elections and they vote for them, they won't get re-elected. The easiest solution was to stall them, do nothing, and take them up after the elections when they can blame the bills on the LAME Duck Congress. We, the dumb citizens of this country have short memories on what our elected officials voted for and after all, it is a long time until re-election. We won't remember by the next time to vote for them.

We are being played as idiots! We get told lies and believe them. We get influenced by false claims and we make false judgments on the evils of capitalism. We are given the solution to the crisis by allowing the government to take control of the evils created by the greed of capitalism and conservatism. The government can make these evil things not happen anymore, level the playing field, allow all to be equal in status and through this great social engineering project our country can regain respectability in the world market and allow us to take our place as part of the great global economy and help all of those in the world with less than us so that we can all be equal in status in the world.

Welcome to world Marxism/Socialism and the stepping down as a great power in the world. If you are ready to have your hard earned rewards spread out equally to all of those with less and many of them who don't want to work or support themselves; do what we have done in the past and let the system run as usual. Don't worry about voting. Don't worry about getting involved. The government will take care of us and all will be happy because we will all be the same.

OR, you can take up the cause, vote for restoring, stand tall and firm and pronounce the truth to all who can hear, send the power hungry bums home and show our Heavenly Father that we recognize His hand in the development of this great republic. Show Him that we are grateful for what He has blessed us with and that we stand for and live the principles of Faith, Hope and Charity as individuals and children of God and NOT as servants of an evil design to destroy our country and what our government was meant to be and should be.

May God Bless us and America!

Conviction

So hundreds of thousands of New York servicemen and women have not received their vote by mail ballots as part of the new law that requires states to send the ballots to their servicemen and women so they can vote in time for the elections. This is in pure violation of the new law and they are giving the finger to it. Thank you New York for your effort. I hope those involved in this travesty of rights by our men and women in the services get tried convicted and sentenced to some really long, hard time in prison! Seriously! Why is there a TEA Party movement in this country? This is one of the reasons! Our government officials mostly stink to high heaven! They are rotten, dirty, conniving, power hungry, evil twits. If they haven't signed on to the TEA Party principles and values, they must be sent home ASAP! Am I passionate about this? You should be also!

We are lacking something really important in our country, CONVICTION! Too many go with the crowd, bend with the wind, follow the leader (not good being that most leaders anymore are not worth the toilet paper they use.) and give in to the public opinion.

What has happened when old morals and standards are no longer looked at as necessary because they hurt the feelings of those who don't like them? Religious people who hold their beliefs are now challenged as "phobics" against those who like to practice the sins or transgressions. And because they are not tolerant and preach against sins, transgressions and bad choices in living, they are accused as the bad people and the ones that should be looked down on.

This reminds me of people who owe my business money on delinquent accounts. Because we aggressively try and collect and sometimes sue for payment, my company becomes the bad guy! Why does being in the right make us the bad guys anymore?

I have a bumper sticker on my car that says "Why does my being right make me extreme?" Anyone else want one? I have some more!

We need to look deep into our inner beings and decide who we are, what we stand for, what we believe in and how strongly we feel about those things. Then we need to stand up, state our beliefs, live them, practice them and show that we are not going to give in to the masses who want to turn the table on us and make us out to being the bad person!

This goes for religion, business, politics, neighborhoods, family, friends, communities, etc. This means standards in behavior, morals, principles and beliefs. We must not be afraid to stand for what we believe! We must not be afraid to speak out against what is wrong, regardless of what it is. And most importantly, we must not ever give into public pressure meant to have us weaken our resolve in our beliefs.

The attacks on those looking to restore our government to what it was meant to be have intensified during this past month. Radicals, extremists, hate mongers, "phobics" wackos, etc. That is what we are. I can live with being called that. So can you. Just follow what you have been taught all of these years and do what is right. What the others call us doesn't matter if we do what is right and show the world that we live our beliefs. Example is greater than words.

Twenty-three days until our time. Make sure you are registered to vote, vote and vote for those who believe as you do. Don't take the words of the media as truth. Research, study, and pray about who would be the best person to represent you and your beliefs. Then vote to restore.

May God Bless us and America!
