A devalued Government...what our future needs!
Daniel Hannan MEP from South East England is the epitome of the leader we need today. Finally, a politician who will stand up for what he truly believes and takes his job seriously has graced our world.
In the last 50 or so years, one could probably count on their fingers the number of men like him in the US Congress. He was born on the wrong side of the pond. Let's face it, we are in a global economic downturn that is leading to a recession comparable to the Great Depression. This is not a time for "say one thing and do another", using smoke and rings to cover up the true problem, or eloquently giving empty statements. Politicians need to cut the easyspeak bullshit and say whats actually on their constituents' minds and hearts. There is too much at stake here. Why isn't anyone giving a damn!?!?!
Out of the 100 US Senators and 435 US Representatives, only 1 man is standing up against this immoral regime that is plummeting our futures down to Hell, Ron Paul. While I respect the man and agree with a majority of his policies, he cannot even touch this guy Daniel Hannan. When will a truly respected Congressman grow the stones to confront Obama and his administration with such a tone and manner? I'm not talking about Rush Limbaugh (who does that pretty much every time he's on the air), Sean Hannity or Glenn Beck. These men are just paid opinionists. We need elected officials who stand by their ground, unwavering. Men and women willing to put themselves on the line for the better good of our nation. Men and women with the elocutionary talents comparable to this man from Parliament.
It is my prayer that out of this chaos and travesty, young men and women will be cultivated to act as Daniel Hannan did to the Prime Minister of England and tell our leaders what is right. We are tired of the lies and deception. Your plan has proven to fail. Let's do what we need to do to make our nation prosperous and respected once again. Let's grab the reins and become stewards of our monies. Accept responsibility for our actions. Realize the consequences affect more than just ourselves, but those all around us. Let's put value back into our devalued government.

The Economic Crisis...the gateway to usurpation of power
America...WAKE UP!
There have been so many troubling news articles circulating that frankly baffles me. Let's start with the never ending economic crisis. President Obama stood up to our nation today and told us why we need his budget plan. A $3.94 trillion dollar budget. A projected $9.3 trillion dollar deficit over a 10 year period. That's 82% of our GDP. I don't care your party affiliation. That's downright fiscal irresponsibility. You don't take a nation already in over a trillion dollars in debt and keep going. His "thinking", if it can even be called that, is the whole reason we are in the situation we are right now. America cannot afford to pay that back. It's a unfair burden placed on the future of America. He keeps saying oh, the spending is to further education, blah blah blah. ONE PROBLEM... He's destroying everything they will need to prosper after getting an education. In one year, America's wealthy have dropped on average 30% between each income bracket. That's 30% less billionaires, 30% millionaires! The people this man keeps condemning are the ones expected to pay for his damn budget. Now, they can't. His budget and tax policies punish the giving, the employers, the people who actually make this country tick! Yet, America does nothing. We just stand to the side, bend over and grab our ankles.
It just gets better. Today, articles surfaced saying that Treasury Secretary Geinther wants to take over these troubled companies and run them to get them back on track. Maybe he should focus more time on getting America back on track! What makes him think he can do a better job at the same time? These are multi-billion dollar companies and he already has the charge of controlling this massive debt Obama keeps jamming down our throats. The government does not need to be running businesses, that is not their job! This unprecedented usurpation of the power in the economic sectors is infuriating. Let them fail! It is time for the consequences of our actions to come forth. It is the only way we can learn. Spending massive amounts of fiat money does nothing, but increase our economic turmoil. Gold jumped ridiculous amounts to above $920 an oz. The FED needs to be dismantled. The American dollar as a world currency is seeing its end. It is on the verge of becoming worthless. So far all this economic crisis has done is place the private sector into the hands of the Government. Yet, We stand here and do nothing. The elected officials in Washington stand there and let it get worse. DO SOMETHING DAMNIT!
To continue on, the Missouri report came out this week. Much to surprise, I personally have been labeled an extremist possibly a terrorist because of my core beliefs. The basis for a so-called "modern Militia". Might I add my core beliefs are no different than every Texan, conservative or God-fearing man in America. No different than so many before me, than those who made this country great. Since when did being tough on crime, fiscally responsible, protecting our nation for foreigners, having faith in God and loving our country, the basis to be an extremist. For the record, Ron Paul was vying for the Republican ticket, not a third party. They can't seem to figure out the reason third party candidates are looking so damn good is because the current dichotomy of our political system is tearing apart a country I love. Basically, if your an American who gives a damn about the future of your country and disagree with the current and previous policies running it, you are a terrorist.
I now consider myself the loyal opposition to the current administration and those running our nation. I will do anything for my country. Do not get me wrong. I respect the position of the Presidency, the rest of the executive branch, the legislative branch and the judiciary. However, respect does not mean turning my eye to what I see to be huge flaws. This is a country of the people, for the people and by the people! I refuse to believe that the current direction of our nation is for the people or by the people. At some point, its time to just say enough is enough. Our voices need to be heard. Violence is not the answer, listening is. But if one thing I learned from Teddy Roosevelt, it never hurts to carry a big stick.
I can only pray to God that people open their eyes and realize how this will affect their lives, the lives of their children and future generations. Hopefully, God will open the eyes of Obama and grant him the guidance for these difficult situations. The answers Obama has are not democratic and encroach the foundations of our great nation. It is Obama's way or the highway right now. If he would stop stepping on the backbone of our country, we just might be able to get out of this crisis on top. He might see what makes our nation so great. He might realize this modern militia should it arise, will be his fault.

long as we keep violent, convicted murderers on death row alive.

I'm voting Democrat because I agree with Joe Biden, that it really is patriotic to pay more taxes. So I'm going to pay a "direct tax." Instead of wasting time giving it to the government for redistribution, I will give my money to derelicts who loiter outside of liquor stores and methadone clinics. That's where it ends up anyway. YES WE CAN ... screw up this country like never before.

How the dichtomy of politics is ruining my nation, Pt. 1
Today, as I was doing my daily perusal of Facebook I noticed an event posting by a friend in one of my classes, the VP Debate Watching Party. The fact someone actually posted such an event showing they actually give a damn about what is going on in my country excited me. I quickly looked at the invited guests and realized it was strictly Liberals. As I perused further, I saw the following picture to my disgust.
Now to be honest, I am not a Democrat, but hell I’m not even a Republican. I am just NOBAMA. I have a tendency to be conservative on most issues, most to the chagrin of my proposed profession and classmates. On any political views test, I usually land in the Libertarian point of view area. I find the fact that any proposed motto should say “I hate the opposing party and everything they stand for!” repulsing. Everything is quite an encompassing word, as is hate. I have friends on both sides of party lines, some who will be cheering Biden on tonight and others who pray that Sarah Palin puts the media in its place tonight. I can say this, that just because I disagree on a few issues does not mean I hate someone. Now I could sit here and play devil’s advocate to how foolish such a motto is, but I will not. To make a point I will say this, if one party says they hate Terrorism, what does that motto say?
As with any election year, headlines plague the media with headlines saying “Democrats hate Republicans”, “Republicans blame the Dems”, and every once in awhile someone like Ron Paul or Ross Perot get a few quips in. Honestly, I am fed up with this ridiculous dichotomy. Has American politics come to the point where you can only share the views of two parties respectively, and anything different be ridiculed out of a real shot at any public office regardless of public opinion? Do Americans today lack the courage and intelligence to stand behind issues they care about, rather than following blindly what the Dems or GOP dictate? These two parties are not even the same parties they were 50 years ago! The media questions why presidential contenders such as Ron Paul has a substantial following. I will tell you the answer, he has BALLS OF STEEL!
Just look at Youtube, the man is everywhere. In the wake of the financial crisis, it wasn’t Obama or McCain who said I have solution. Both candidates jumped on the Bush Administration bandwagon with little disagreement to push through Congress a bill that my friends I feel will shatter the US economy because it was quick fix, not a long-term overhaul. Ron Paul was one of 202 US Representatives who made a stand by defeating the bill and told Americans exactly why he did it. Presidential elections have become merely a popularity contest between the two parties’ candidates who put the American people through a circle jerk contest trying to decide who has the bigger penis. The problem is at the end of the day, both candidates lack the substance to take any real stands on real issues, only on safe issues. I find it ironic that McCain labels himself as a maverick, but the only maverick I have seen over the last months has been a representative from the Lone Star State who is not even running anymore.
It is my hope and prayer tonight that the Vice-Presidential debates showcase the real views of both the senior senator from Delaware and the Governor of Alaska in a nonpartisan environment. That Palin breaks out of her shell and shows us exactly what she is about and that Biden provides something of an inkling that would give me safeguard, just in case Obama does win this election. My hope is, that in the wake of financial disaster, this evening is not used as an opportunity to blame the opposite party; but discuss point of views on the issues. In closing, my hope is the candidates regardless of political affiliation show they have the substance to take a hard stand on the issues, not just what media wants to hear.
