Political Republican Opinion

Political Republican Opinion:

Congratulations to our new President-elect. The election is over and the country has decided upon Barack Obama as our new incoming President. Out of respect for the position, I have removed the ads for the “NoBama” T-Shirt and the “Obama Nation” book from the sidebar.

I have always believed that no matter what one’s own personal views are, the President of the United States is a person who deserves the utmost respect of the citizens of this country. He is your country to the rest of the world and vulgar attacks on him, whoever he may be, weaken our country in the eyes of other nations of the world.

Before entering the blogging world, I wrote a top-rated article for Helium about this. In that article, I wrote, “It does not matter if you voted for him or not. It does not matter if you agree with all of the President’s decisions. You may not like the way your sister is dressing lately, but you most certainly would not sit idly by as someone calls her a tramp!”

This is not to say that the President shouldn’t be held accountable for things over which he has control. In most cases and in other years, though, I have given the President a pass, since the House of Representatives and the Senate are chiefly responsible for enacting the laws that shape our country’s policies. The President only has the power to veto those Acts and, even in those cases, a President’s vetoes can be overridden with enough Congressional support for any particular bill.

Barack Obama, however, will not have the luxury of being able to blame Congress. The Democrats have a HUGE majority in both houses of Congress. He should have a free pass in getting anything he has promised through the Legislative Branch. Barack Obama has been given the penultimate opportunity to pass with flying colors or to fail miserably.

Only time will tell which it will be.

I have copied his entire website and will be adding a section to my blog entitled “The Obama Report Card.” It will be divided into sections so that visitors to the blog can check on President Obama’s progress in getting the things he has promised that are important to them, accomplished. Each section will have a list and the items on the list will appear in RED until they are accomplished. Once completed, the items will turn GREEN.

I encourage all visitors to the blog to not only check out that list to see how he is progressing, but to remind me of any items that President Obama has accomplished that I have neglected to change from red to green. There is no immediate rush to get the report card section onto the website (yes, I’ve already started it), since it will be another two-and-a-half months until President-elect Obama is inaugurated.

I will continue to criticize the members of the legislature when they are doing something that I see as being detrimental to our country’s interests or to Conservative principles. I, too, reserve the right to respectfully post my disagreements with decisions made by the new President.

Hopefully, President Obama will not receive the same level of disrespect, regardless of the job he is doing, as our current President has and I discourage any who comment on this blog in the future from using discourteous language. I also hope that all of my fears of Barack Obama have been unfounded and that he turns out to be a fantastic President, leading our country to new and great heights.

Political Republican Opinion:

The time has come to get out and vote. I have done all that I can to inform readers of the facts that have not been reported in the mainstream Liberal media. For the most part, I have been preaching to the choir.

Now is not the time to stifle your voice; it is not the time to lie down and let the United States of America become transformed into a Socialist welfare state. Although it may not seem like it, your lone vote counts. Your single voice when joined by millions of other voices makes the Republican Party the most powerful choir in the world.

We can prevent a new director from taking the baton and snapping it in half. This man does not want to hear you sing; he doesn’t like our songs. He prefers “La Marsseillace” and “Das Deutschlandlied.” We can keep Barack Obama from stifling our voices, but we need to let them be heard now, more than ever before.

John McCain wound up his nomination speech at the Republican National Convention with the following words:

“I’m going to fight for my cause every day as your president. I’m going to fight to make sure every American has every reason to thank God, as I thank Him: that I’m am American, a proud citizen of the greatest country on earth, and with hard work, strong faith and a little courage, great things are always within our reach.

Fight with me. Fight with me.

Fight for what’s right for our country.

Fight for the ideals and character of a free people.

Fight for our children’s future.

Fight for justice and opportunity for all.

Stand up to defend our country from its enemies.

Stand up for each other; for beautiful, blessed, bountiful America.

Stand up, stand up, stand up and fight. Nothing is inevitable here. We’re Americans, and we never give up. We never quit. We never hide from history. We make history.”

Barack and Michelle Obama, on the other hand, have denigrated the United States of America and have expressed the shame they feel for this country on numerous occasions. From Rezko to Wright to Khalidi, from Ayers to Farrakhan to ACORN, the people they have chosen to associate with for the past twenty years shows a very clear picture of who they really are. They do not like this country. They sing a different song. As the Reverend Wright has said, “it’s not ‘God Bless America’ … no, no, no … it’s ‘GOD DAMN AMERICA.’”

John McCain has fought for this country; he loves this country and sings its praises every day. It is time to join McCain and let his song be heard. We can fix the broken things in this country. We can right the few wrongs. The fundamentals of the United States of America are strong and have made it the greatest country in the world since its beginning.

That strength starts with you. The mainstream Liberal media has tried to convince you to stay home, that the race is already lost. They have told you that the Republicans will lose all of their vacating seats to Democrats and that a super majority is going to happen in the US Congress. They have told you that Barack Obama has already won.

Don’t let the biased media fool you! The fat lady is sleeping off her last big meal. It’s time to let your voice be heard. It’s time to vote, not just for John McCain, but for every single Republican on the ballot. We have the numbers. We can claim this country back!

Political Republican Opinion:

Every poll seems to indicate that there are still a significant amount of “undecided” voters out there. Personally, I believe that “undecided” is really a euphemism for “apathetic” and that the majority of these people are not going to be voting at all.

If you are undecided and do intend to vote, the only reason that I can fathom that you have not made a decision is because you are unsure of who the candidates are and what they really stand for.

I imagine that undecided voters are pretty sure who John McCain is. They may not agree with all of McCain’s policies (neither do I) and may be influenced by the Obama campaign’s negative attack ads that paint him as too old or too “big business.” They may be unclear of what McCain’s health care plan really is (I don’t blame them; he hasn’t explained it very well). There are undoubtedly other issues that may be holding them back from voting for John McCain. They can put a finger on those issues at least, and name them.

Barack Obama, on the other hand, is an enigma. His message is positive and encouraging but his words are measured; his promises, vague. His campaign has been polished and perfect but there is something about him that many undecided voters are uneasy about. They want to vote for him, but one thing is holding them back. That one thing is trust. They do not know who the man really is because the media has protected him and has not done a proper job of vetting him for this country’s most important position.

Many people have written snippets about Barack Obama’s background. Extensive research has been attempted and many doors have been slammed in the faces of those who have tried to pry too far into Barack Obama’s past.

A commendable effort at combining those snippets into a thorough history of Barack Obama has been made by Dr. Kate, a guest author on Texas Darlin’s blog. Her article, “The Trojan Candidate,” is an extremely thorough look at the life of Barack Obama.

There are many significant quotes in the article. The one that made the hair on my neck stand up was one by Saul Alinsky, a transformational Marxist who is credited with developing the seditious role of community organizing. In his book, “Rules for Radicals,” Alinsky defined precisely the role of a community organizer as he saw it:

“It was Alinsky for whom ‘change’ was his mantra. And by ‘change’, he meant a Marxist revolution achieved by slow, incremental, Machiavellian means which turned society inside out. This had to be done through systematic deception, winning the trust of the naively idealistic middle class by using the language of morality to conceal an agenda designed to destroy it. And the way to do this, he said, was through ‘people’s organisations’. Community organisers would mobilise direct action by the oppressed masses against their capitalist oppressors.”

I warn you, “The Trojan Candidate” is not a short piece. If you are one of the apathetic undecided voters, don’t even bother clicking the link to the well-constructed and detailed article. If, on the other hand, you are one of the undecided voters who are on the fence, one who will be voting but need a little more background into who Barack Obama really is, I implore you to take the time to better inform yourself. The future of this country may depend on you!

Political Republican Opinion:

It is becoming eerily more apparent to some, that Barack Obama is just a puppet in a master plan hatched many years ago. Moveon.org controls the purse strings and Barney Frank, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi control the policies. Or, do they?

According to the following video, there is something far more sinister going on in the effort to get Barack Obama elected, his entire presidential bid is being controlled and influenced by other unfriendly nations of the world:

Ten years ago, Wendy button began writing speeches for the Democratic Party. She has written for Barack and Michelle Obama, John Edwards, Joe Biden and Bill Clinton, as well other Democrats.

She recently announced that she was switching Party affiliations and is now writing for John McCain. The reasons she has left the Party she devoted so much of her life to can be found in her article: “So Long Democrats”

Political Republican Opinion:

Ezra Taft Benson was the Secretary of Agriculture from 1953-1961 under President Dwight D. Eisenhower. He did not believe in the system of government price supports and aid to farmers. Nonetheless, in his appointed position, he was in charge of administering the program that he said amounted to Socialism.

In a devotional address at Brigham Young University in 1968, titled “Our Immediate Responsibility,” Ezra Taft Benson warned of America’s gradual progression from Socialism to Communism. In the speech, he spoke of a meeting that Eisenhower forced him to have with Russian president Nikita Kruschev. You may listen to that speech, below:

Plitical Republican Opinion:

If you are among the ten percent of people who have yet to decide who they will be oting for in this landmark presidential election, please take the time to view the following video.

It disects the half-hour Barack Obama infomercial and points out the obvious errors in Barack Obama’s message. It also addresses the remeides to the problems that the families in Obama’s video face.

Not only are there solutions that exist today that would help these families, but John McCain’s economic plan seems to ofer more help and HOPE to these families than the plan the Barack Obama is offering.

All is laid out clearly in the video. You will, however, have to keep your finger on the pause button. The words and images move rather rapidly:

Political Republican Opinion:

Once again, there is more stuff flying at me from every angle than I can even begin to write about. Each article or video is brilliant in its own right and deserves more than a blurb or two from me.

Unfortunately, this race is too close now (According to the Drudge Report, the latest Zogby poll has John McCain ahead by a point now - 48 to 47 – over Barack Obama) and there is only time to throw the best of the best up as rapidly as I can.

Now, more than ever, we need every single Republican to get out and vote. The cream always rises to the top, the crud to the bottom. Drag every other like-minded voter with you and make sure they vote! There’s a big stage set up in Chicago with fabulous looking columns. I want more than anything to watch them fall in the midst of the Obama Victory Celebration Obama Pity Riot.

And Now … It’s What You’ve Been Waiting For … The Political Republican Opinion Blog’s Best Of The Best, Must Read Posts!

Whimsical Wisdom

I came across a brilliant post today on the Whimsical Wisdom blog that tells Barack Obama to put his money where his mouth is by spreading the wealth. Where the author wants him to spread his wealth to is priceless! Check it out at: Barack Obama, Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is!

If that wasn’t great enough, the Whimsical Wisdom blog also has a humorous take on the half-hour Obama infomercial. It’s at: You Say Obama, I Say Sham-WOW!

Penn and Teller on Obama’s Tax Plan

I laughed so hard, I cried when I watched the following video. It shows that only an imbecile would think that Barack Obama’s tax plan could possibly work:

This next video puts Barack Obama’s corporate tax plan into perspective with solid numbers from those countries that have failed utilizing a similar plan.

The information in the video comes very quickly. Be prepared to use the “pause” button often. You don’t want to miss any of this!

Sarah Palin Pays Special Attention to Special Needs Families

The mainstream Liberal media and the ultra Left-wing bloggers continue to trash Sarah Palin. They cannot understand why a woman would want to keep a baby – especially a Downs Syndrome baby – with her career on the line. This, my friends, is one of the many things that make Sarah Palin so special:

That’s it for now. The snowball of support grows larger for the Republican ticket as it rolls down Victory Hill to the end of the campaign season. Remember to keep the faith, get out and vote and take a friend with you!

Political Republican Opinion:

The neighborhood homeowners’ association where I live would probably describe me kindly as an “agitator.” I am always challenging the money they are spending on things and frequently point out ways to do things far cheaper or better companies to use.

The board members are quite happy with their “elected” positions and the power they hold over the neighborhood. I would not be surprised at all to learn someday that some of them were receiving kickbacks from some of the high-priced vendors they have contracted to do business with on the community’s behalf.

I am often asked by the “regular” folks in the community, “Why don’t you run for president of the association? We need someone like you to control how these people are spending our money!”

I shrug and say, “Sorry, I’m really not into all of the politics.” (Little do they know that I write this blog.)

“I’ll just keep doing what I’m doing, watching from the outside,” I say.

I guess that all changed tonight. This election is obviously getting to me.

At first, Halloween went as it normally does. Kids showed up at the door and they all got two pieces of candy. Things went swimmingly well. I got the polite “thank you’s” and the children went happily on their way.

Then, as the night wore on and it got later – you know, when the teens are the only ones who are still out and about – I decided to CHANGE things up.

Four older kids showed up at the door. They weren’t dressed terribly creatively; they were just out for the free candy. I looked into their bags and saw that some had more than the others. I gave the kid with the least amount of candy in his bag three pieces, the one with the next least amount got two pieces, one kid was given only one piece and the kid with the most in his bag, got nothing.

“Dude, I didn’t get anything!” the last kid said. “Yeah, and they got more than me,” the kid who only got one piece said.

“Sorry, my man,” I told the first kid, “I’m just trying to prepare you for the future.”

“If I did what Barack Obama wants me to do,” I told him, “I would have taken some of your candy and given it to the other three.”

“You gotta spread the wealth dude, it’s the patriotic thing to do! Just ask Joe Biden,” I said.

“That’s not fair!” the shorted kid said. “I’ve been out here for an hour more than the other guys.”

“So you think because you worked harder, you should get more candy?” I asked him.

“Well, yeah!” the kid said.

I told him that he better get used to it. “If Obama wins, this is how things are going to be with everything. If you don’t like it, tell your parents about it. Better yet,” I added, “make sure you let your teacher know!”

To set the record straight, I only did that once. I forget how young I was when I learned to string a series of completely unrelated cuss words into a sentence that seemed to make complete sense. This kid had it down, though!

I did do something else, however, that proved to be unpopular. This, I kept up throughout the night.

The school system, in their infinite wisdom, gave all of the children UNICEF boxes and told them to ask for donations while they were trick or treating. Not knowing this, I did not go to the bank and get a couple of rolls of quarters and I don’t have hundreds of dollars in bills to hand out either.

Fortunately, most parents told their kids to leave the boxes at home. Halloween is not a time to go soliciting money door-to-door, they rightly reasoned. I did, however, have a handful of kids who showed up with the boxes, asking for donations.

I asked them all the same two questions. “Do you know what UNICEF is?” was the first question I asked. To all but one, I had to explain that it stands for the United Nations Children’s Fund and that it exists to help the children of the world who are hungry, sick, abused or need schools built for them.

“I’ll let you make the choice,” I told them. “Either I can give you two pieces of candy or I will give you a dollar to put in your UNICEF box. Which do you want?”

Not a single child sacrificed his candy for the children of the world (future Democrats, I’m sure).

One parent (she has Obama signs in her yard), got mad and told me it was outrageous for me to ask a child to make such a decision. “Okay,” I told her, “you decide!” She told me to give her child the candy and stormed off in a huff, dragging her son by the wrist.

That’s the difference between Democrats and Republicans. My parents never would have let me take the candy over voluntarily helping someone else. Of course, they probably never would have let me walk around with the box - putting my neighbors in an awkward position - in the first place!

This is why I’ll never run to become the homeowners’ association president. I ruffle too many feathers trying to do the right thing. People don’t like it when you try to actually educate their children. Lord knows the public school system isn’t doing it.

I don’t know … If I did run, how many votes do you think I lost tonight?

Barack Obama – Affiliated With Major Socialist Party

Feminists 4 Sarah Palin recently posted a piece about Barack Obama’s ties to one of the nation’s most influential Socialist Parties. The Democratic Socialists of America endorsed Barack Obama and helped register voters on behalf of Obama.

Read about it here: Obama is Hiding a Radical Past

Barack Obama Learned His Lessons Well!

Recognized as the founder of modern community organizing in America, Saul Alinsky has been a huge influence in the life of Barack Obama. He was such a powerful influence, that Saul Alinsky’s son, L. David Alinsky, recently credited Barack Obama with “learning his lessons well.”

What were the lessons Obama learned? They can be found in Saul Alinsky’s 1971 handbook for community organizers, “Rules for Radicals.” A summary of Alinsky’s 11 Rules can be found here: “Rules for Radicals”

Marxists/Socialists/Communists Section on Barack Obama’s Website!

This sounds like one of those completely fabricated stories; but it is definitely true! If you don’t believe me, you may visit the section here: Marxists/Socialists/Communists for Obama

Obama’s Affinity for Marxism Began in College

Although Barack Obama scoffs at the notion that he is a Socialist, his books, “Dreams of my Father” and “The Audacity of Hope,” specifically point out the origins of his far Left leanings and fascination with Marxism.

Fox News’ Bill Sammon writes about it here: “Obama Affinity to Marxists Dates Back to College Days”

Obama Trashes the Constitution and Capitalism

I would hope that anyone who has even a smattering of interest in this political election has heard the audio from the 2001 Chicago radio interview where Barack Obama says that the Supreme Court should have legislated redistribution of wealth from the bench.

If that wasn’t bad enough, Obama also denigrated the constraints of the US Constitution. If I’m not mistaken, doesn’t the President of the United States have to take an oath of office at the inauguration? I believe it goes something like this:

“I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

Well … that could be awkward for President Obama, couldn’t it?

If you haven’t heard the interview, it can be found here: Obama Bombshell - Redistribution of Wealth Audio Uncovered

Who is Barack Obama?

All of this Socialism and Marxism stuff could be a moot point. According to Andy Martin, there is no such person as Barack Obama. The person we now know as Barack Hussein Obama was switched at birth and he is really Frank Marshall Davis III.

The “Operation Aloha Obama” investigation digs up a conspiracy to hide the identity of Barack Obama’s real father due to racial stigmas that were present in the early 1960’s. You can read about it at “Barack Obama is not ‘Barack Obama’.”

Finally, in case you are wondering, the answer is “ABSOLUTELY NOT!” I sat through the entire Democratic Convention, the Republican Convention and all four debates. The thought of having to watch a thirty minute Hollywood production of “Barack Obama, Leader, Man of the People and Savior of the World” is more than I could stomach. Listening to the same handful of recycled talking points – Hollywood style – would have been too much. Pizza is great going down but isn’t nearly the same coming up!

Political Republican Opinion:

I spent fourteen years in the hospitality industry here in Orlando, Florida. At the beginning, it was exciting to meet people from all over the country and the rest of the world and get their unique perspectives on things. After a few years, though, it got kind of old. At year five, I began to lose my faith in humanity.

I should clarify that a little. People from the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand were exceptionally cheerful and easygoing. Bermuda, Gibraltar and Malta can be credited with having great people with good attitudes as well.

The two countries with the most miserable people that seemed clueless about anybody but themselves, however, were France (I know … what a shock!) and the United States. Since people from France were few and far between, dealing with the pettiness and greed of the American public was what finally drove me out of the industry. I couldn’t stand the “me, me, me” attitude of so many Americans. It made me sick to see how so many of my fellow countrymen would try any angle to scam a discount and how thoughtless they were of others around them. I was often embarrassed by the stupidity of
