Who is Obamacare Army Adversary?

Previously, President Obama has openly spoken about his intention to form a civilian army, one with equal power to our military forces. Roll the tape:



Is there a need for this type of organization? What purposes does the President envision for this organization? What is the makeup of the individuals who will staff this organization? Who is the organization accountable to? These are just a few of the many questions I have. Glenn Beck, fellow sick twisted freak, has some questions as well:



I have found this administration untrustworthy, and find the announcement of the formation of the "Ready Reserve Corps" to be most troubling. You become an instant candidate for the Anti-Christ if in any way you were to compare Obama to Adloph Hitler, but did Hitler not form a civilian army which morphed into the SS?

I am not going there, yet, but I do see the potential for members of civil disobedience groups like ACORN or union thugs from SEIU staffing the Reserve Coprs. Will the Apollo Alliance, who astonishingly helped craft the stimulus bill, be part of the creative team? Of course, the NY division of Apollo is headed by Weather Underground co-founder, along with Obama's favorite unrepentant terrorist William Ayers, Jeff Jones. As reported by Atlas Shrugs, they have already began recruiting veterans to help launch an “Operation Free” campaign that has veterans touring the country to call for federal action on climate change, which is perhaps the greatest hoax of all time. I could easily see former Green Jobs Czar Van Jones running point on this!

As alarming as this is, the organization is not set up to be accountable to American people through Congress, but only to the President. See the following:

3) APPOINTMENT.—Commissioned officers of the Ready Reserve Corps shall be appointed by the President and commissioned officers of the Regular Corps shall be appointed by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate.
Source pg 1312

Caution on the speedway!! I read that as advice and consent of the Senate, not accountable to the Senate, or the American people for that matter. This administration has bullied the other legislative branches, threatening Congress and admonishing in front of the American people the Supreme Court of The United States, attempting to diminish their power. Our country is built on among other things a system of checks and balances, to prohibit abuses of power. I consider the President forming his own army accountable only to him for undefined domestic purposes such an abuse.

On top of it all, the provision, and the entire Health Care Reform Bill for that mater, may in fact be unconstitutional. Judge Andrew Napolitano of FOX News discusses the action on FOX Business Network's Happy Hour with Tracey Byrnes, Eric Bolling and Cody Willard. Take a listen:



So we have the Ready Reserve Corps, a domestic army formed to operate at the discretion of the President to be used for domestic purposes accountable only to the President. For what reason? Who is the enemy of the armed Reserve Corps? I sure hope it is not me and my fellow Tea Party Patriots!

The American Revival

Although it was a lovely day here in beautiful downtown Orlando on Saturday, I spent the day with three friends at the UCF Arena in Orlando attending the Glenn Beck American Revival Tour, and it was truly a wonderful experience had by all.

The day focused on becoming reconnected with three distinct values that were integral building blocks of our founding fathers; faith, hope and charity.

David Barton began the day giving us a thorough history on the role faith played in the formation of our country, and how extensively the founding fathers referenced religion in their writings. Unfortunately, many are tyring to diminish the role of faith in the birth of America, and it was great to hear some keen insight on this vitally important subject.

The economics of the day are indeed critical as we are on an unsustainable path and are on the heels of adding a mind boggling entitlement program so expensive we ran out of zeros on the old HP12C. Economist David Buckner, of Columbia University in New York, discussed that in order for there to be hope, there must first be truth and we need to know the cold hard facts about our economic standing to take the correct paths going forward. A real no spin zone!

The Constitution is under attack and who better than Judge Andrew Napolitano of FOX News to offer a rousing perspective on how the intrusive governmental acts over time have eroded our rights as they were outlined in The Constitution. The Judge hit it out of the park and reiterated that our rights are given to us by our Creator and not by government, and free people are notably generous through the goodness of their heart and not by governmental force of hand.

Glenn Beck keynoted the day and was, as usual, tremendous. The day was not spent firebombing those in office, but rather outlining an educational foundation from which a course of action can be taken to regain the values and principles our founding fathers set out for us, which do not include strangling debt, a departure from faith, intrusive government and the erosion of our rights.

Many thanks to Glenn, the panelists and of course, Stu and Pat for a wonderful event.

CAT Got Your Tongue?

In promotion of the stimulus package, President Barack Obama said that in many ways you can measure America's bottom line by looking at Caterpillar's (CAT:NYSE) bottom line. Here you go:



The Presidents appearance at Caterpillar was quite sketchy to begin with, as the CEO of Caterpillar, Jim Owens, was not supporter of the bill but felt pressured to play along. The Heritage Foundation labeled the visit as an "ambush". Caterpillar had just laid off approximately 20,000 workers just weeks before the visit.



Speaking of pressure, Representative Aaron Schock, (R:IL), who was invited to fly out on Air Force One only to be set up to be lobbied for his vote, got called out on national television. Schock did not appreciate it one bit, and did not support the legislation.

The stimulus package was and is a colossal failure for the entire nation in addition to large corporations like Caterpillar, who has continued to shed jobs. Rather than focusing on a hemorrhaging job market, Obama has focused on saddling future generations with another abusive entitlement package in the form of Health Care reform. Sadly, the legislation was only masked as health care reform but is in reality a vehicle for the transfer of wealth.

The ink has failed to dry on the legislation and already several major corporations, who since they are publicly traded must disclose any known adverse factors that can negatively influence earnings, have come out and said they will take sizable charges, including AT&T (T:NYSE), 3M (MMM:NYSE), AK Steel (AKS:NYSE), Verizon (VZ:NYSE), Medtronic (MDT:NYSE), John Deere (DE:NYSE) and our old friend from Peoria, Caterpillar.

There is no free lunch, as I think most everyone learned in high school economics class, and there is a huge cost to be paid to give 30 million new folks health care coverage. One way the federal government aims to pay for this is through additional taxes, but we should have also learned that when you tax something, you get less of it. If goods or services cost more to produce, hindered by excessive taxation and regulation, less will be produced leading to a limitation on choices for the consumer. Perhaps it would be prudent to review the Laffer Curve?

The Health Care reform legislation many are cheering will strangle major corporations and small businesses, kill jobs across America and limit choices for the consumer, not only in health care where private sector providers will be crowded out, but in every sector. Unfortunately, Caterpillar won't be the only business loading up equipment on the hauler, a victim of those who seek wealth transformation and oppose free market capitalism. Our economic situation is unsustainable, and it will be We The People, particularly our children and grandchildren, who will take the biggest hit.

I AM A SHAREHOLDER OF VERIZON AND AT&T.

Faith, Hope & Charity

The American Revival Tour with Glenn Beck hits Orlando on Saturday. I agree with Glenn that the US Citizenry is under attack from within. I plan to play a role in thwarting those who tread against us tea party patriots.



Slamming the brakes on the transformation of America begins anew Saturday as we plot to restore America. I'll see you there.

Freedom Attacked

Enemies from within, including our arrogant President and an abusive Congress who hold our citizenry in contempt, gleefully assaulted our rights and freedoms by passing Health Care Reform.

I find freedom worth fighting for, and for those who take my freedoms away, I plan to hold them accountable in every legal avenue permissible.



Not that I ever made a practice of it in the first place, but I will never cast a ballot for a Democrat again. Marxist radicals are dancing, but the fight for freedom is fully engaged by freedom loving free market capitalist patriots all across the thundering plain.

For me, the fight will continue Saturday at Glenn Beck's American Revival at UCF arena. Faith, Hope & Charity! Join me!

Fight For Freedom

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. --Ronald Reagan, March 30, 1961

A governmental takeover of health care is not about health care, but about seizing a big chunk of your freedom. Free market capitalism is the best path to prosperity, and it is certainly worth fighting for. Including a vigorous effort this weekend.

Gov. Health Care Portal To Socialism

A time for choosing is fast approaching. Arrogant Democrats, led by President Barack Obama, who thinks he is the smartest man in the room, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, are poised to ram down the throat of the American people a huge entitlement program all polls indicate the people do not want. Alas, but government knows best.

The proposed Bill is actually unwritten as we speak only having a blue print to work from. This will lay the groundwork to allow the government to move forward in a takeover of the total economy, and your life. Tom Harkin (D:IA), who a decade or so ago announced his run for the presidency amongst all the chirping birds, said as much by describing the bill as a building block. Harkin also discussed how health care is an inalienable right, which could not be further from the truth. Our rights are given to us by God per the Declaration of Independence, not idiotic arrogant politicians. Here is Harkin:


Take a moment to fully comprehend this statement from moonbat Pelosi earlier this week:


We have been down this road before, where a liberal Democrat, who thinks he knows best, argues for governmental takeover of health care and calls out Republican opponents as obstructionists. Here we go again:


Reagan, who not only provided a blue print to escape the current economic catastrophe we are currently embroiled in, also had the subject of governmental health care nailed dead to right as he put forth in a speech he made back in 1961. Now, more than ever, we should hear Ronald Reagan loud and clear, and not let the inexperience of those in government pushing health care who have never made a payroll dictate a movement by our country away from free market capitalism toward socialism, which as Reagan indicates, is masked in health care reform.



It is now time for choosing. If we do not learn from history, we are doomed to repeat it. Our founders fought for limited government, and so should you! Call you representatives now and help defeat heatlh care, a portal to socialism.

BAHL's Babes: Kimberly Guilfoyle

FOX News is well known for the beautiful women they have on staff over there, and at or near the top of the list is the latest BAHL's Babe, Kimberly Guilfoyle.

Kimberly can usually be found doing stories for or guest hosting Geraldo at Large, where she has her own segment called Kimberly's Cases, and on discussion groups on Hannity and The O'Reilly Factor. If I were the executives over there, I would be looking to increase her visibility.








Guilfoyle, who graduated from the University of California Davis magna cum laude, is a former Victoria's Secret model. She worked as an attorney and prior to joining the ranks of television attorneys, she served as an Assistant District Attorney at the San Francisco District Attorney's Office.

Although at one time she was married to a huge lefty in San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsome, in the discussions she participates in on FOX she does come across as right leaning and even displays a sarcastic attitude to go along with her intoxicating smile.

When combining Kimberly's high level of intelligence with her striking beauty, you have a rising star at FOX news and the newest BAHL's Babe.

Economic Suicide

Award winning Investors Business Daily Cartoonist and Senior Editor Michael Ramirez delivers yet another knockout. No wonder he is tops in his field.

There is no doubt that the governmental takeover of health care will be suicide for our economy, which is presently operating at unsustainable levels and is on brink of collapse anyhow. IBD editorializes on the subject.

One can only hope and pray the bill is rejected!

ABC News Awakes From Coma!

An extension of the unemployment benefits is being "blocked" by Senator Jim Bunning (R:KY). Certainly, the American people deserve answers as to why Sen. Bunning, obviously an evil public servant, would place so many jobless American workers on the verge of starvation! The horror of it all!

Thankfully, for us idiots at large, ABC News is on the story like a cat in a tree at 4th and Main!



Good Grief! The media bias and hypocrisy on this is in the stratosphere.

As a youngster, I switched from Cronkite and CBS over to Peter Jennings and ABC News World News Tonight as my preference. In recent years, I have briefly met both Diane Sawyer and Charles Gibson, who both seemed to be neat people.

But ABC News has been nothing short of asleep at the switch for the better part of a decade. Recall Charlie Gibson stumbling around having no idea of the goings on of ACORN when they were exposed? Where was ABC, or any of the 3 networks, when Obama's radical czars were exposed, on the exposing of Charlie Rangel's many illegal activities, Obama's relationship with ACORN and stimulus money going to Congressional districts that do not exist? Surely they were all over Barney Frank and Chris Dodd's practically criminal oversight of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac? Have they questioned Nancy Pelosi, who proclaimed to clean out swamp and run the most ethical House evah, on the long list of unethical behavior in the House? Paygo? Hello!

They completely missed the tea parties for crying out loud! And what about the global warming scandals?

For a myriad of reasons, with bias being at or near the top of the list, the network news divisions are quickly becoming a dinosaur. As Bernie Goldberg put it, if you are heading up one of these news divisions, you are essentially running a morgue.

Serves them right! And for the record, Bunning is still right!

Unemployment Benefits Extend Misery

CNBC's Larry Kudlow is back from vacation during the Winter Olympics and picked up where he left off; correctly lambasting the economic policies of our current administration.

The blocking of the extension of the unemployment benefits led to a conversation with Alan Reynolds of the CATO Institute on the potential liabilities of extending these benefits, and it is worth your time.



The Washington Times reports the number of Americans relying on on the government is at an all time high, and this is dangerous. Investors Business Daily has more. America is not a bailout nation, and was built on the back of hard work and and a inner spirit. Margaret Thatcher spoke profound words when she said "Europe was created by history. America was created by philosophy". The economic philosophy is Free Market Capitalism!

Personal accountability is non existent for far too many these days and it could lead to a drastic change in the makeup of our country going forward as it appears to be heading toward socialism. One would be prudent to remember what Margaret Thatcher once said about that, “The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of everyone else's money.”
