"Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language.. And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

T. Roosevelt, 1907

Here is what I don't understand.

Here is what I don't understand, how is it that that in America we have a party that wishes only to expand its own power and we have another that is fighting within itself. The Democratic party is interested in one thing, protecting the power it has and the government through which it has it. They aim to  expand that said same power on a continual basis. The Republican party is struggling within itself trying to determine if it is going be very conservative or go back to the party establishment way.

So we have the Democrats, they are either in total denial of the debt and spending problem our county has or they don't care. Another more sinister possibility is they are intentionally trying to sabotage and destroy the country. We have a President that single handily spent/borrowed more money in the 3 years he has  been in office than the county did from 1776 to 2005. Now that is quite an achievement. An achievement not to brag about. And just recently his government handed down new regulation about mercury and coal fired plants. This will close down at least 20 plants and cost thousands of jobs. This will also cost additional hardships on families because the price of electricity will go up.

So how could any one in their right  mind be a Democrat anyway? They are astonishingly backwards in their thinking. They favour allowing women to hire a "doctor" to murder their own unborn child. They think a tree or a spotted owl somewhere is more important than a red blooded American who is just trying to make ends meet and support his family, but now he cant because his plant just shut down. It shut down because some liberal thought it was disturbing some endangered tree or something.They will not allow the American ingenuity to be unleashed to solve our energy crisis. If they would just not regulate industry after industry to death America could be thriving again!

President Obama with little respect for religious freedoms

The President has little respect for real Christan religions among others. He claims so but his actions speak louder than words. His democratic party seeks constantly to dismantle the freedom to express our religious beliefs publicly, but it did not start with him. There has been a constant eroding of our freedom to publicly express our religious beliefs for over fifty years.

We need to unite in our belief we have a constitutional right to express our religious beliefs and exercise them as our God has told us in his word. Our founders did not put into the constitution a separation of church and state. That is wording Jefferson used to describe a governing Principal he believed erroneously in.

The Declaration of Independence from the Democratic Party!

IN America, December 26, 2011

The unanimous Declaration of the freedom loving people of the  united States of America

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political authority of a treasoness party and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the rejection of said party.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any political party becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to elect new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that American's are more disposed to suffer, while under the evils of the Democratic party. Americans will now right themselves by abolishing the tyranny of the Democratic party. And after a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is every Americans' duty, to throw off the Democratic party, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

Poll finds most undecided on right-to-work (By Dan Carden)

INDIANAPOLIS | The only independent public opinion poll to ask Hoosiers about the right-to-work issue found most have no opinion on the proposed labor policy that is set to dominate the upcoming session of the Indiana General Assembly.

The nonpartisan Bowen Center for Public Affairs at Ball State University in Muncie surveyed 607 randomly selected Hoosiers via cellular and landline telephones last month about right-to-work and other political topics.

Prior to asking each respondent for his or her opinion about right-to-work, Bowen Center callers explained that a right-to-work law would make it illegal for labor unions to collect dues from employees who choose not to join the union.

The questioners also told respondents that some people believe a right-to-work law will bring more jobs to the state, and other people say right-to-work lowers wages for all workers and doesn't reduce unemployment.

Even after being informed of both sides of the issue, 47.8 percent of respondents said they don't have an opinion on right-to-work.

Among respondents with an opinion, 26.9 percent said they support right-to-work, and 23.6 percent said they oppose right-to-work.

The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.4 percent.

Raymond Scheele, co-director of the Bowen Center, said the results show there is no consensus among Hoosiers on right-to-work.

"Clearly neither side on this issue has closed the deal," Scheele said. "This is not a settled issue in Indiana."

The Bowen Center results differ from polls conducted for the House Republican Campaign Committee run by House Speaker Brian Bosma, R-Indianapolis, who supports right-to-work, and the Indiana AFL-CIO, which opposes it.

The House Republicans' poll found 65 percThent support a right-to-work law and 28 percent oppose it.

But that poll incorrectly defined right-to-work as a law that ensures "a worker cannot be required to join a labor union or pay labor union dues in order to get or keep a job." Since 1947, federal law has prohibited mandatory union membership as a job condition and no American worker can be required to pay union dues.

The AFL-CIO poll found 47 percent of Hoosiers oppose right-to-work when they are told the proposed labor policy change will reduce union membership in Indiana, as it has in other right-to-work states. Only 38 percent said they support right-to-work with that outcome.

Scheele said if either of those polls was accurate Bosma wouldn't be spending his campaign funds to appear in TV commercials in several areas of the state urging Hoosiers to support right-to-work.

"If there was not an undecided block, we wouldn't see the TV ads," Scheele said.

Bosma and Senate President David Long, R-Fort Wayne, have declared right-to-work their top priority for the Legislature, which begins its 2012 session Jan. 4. Republican Gov. Mitch Daniels also supports a right-to-work law for Indiana.

The Birth of Jesus! (Luke 2:1-20)

The Birth of Jesus

1 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.
2 (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)
3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.
4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)
5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.
6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.
7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.
8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

The Shepherds and the Angels

9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
15 And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.
16 And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.
17 And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.
18 And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.
19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.

President Ronald Reagan and the ministry of Christ

President Ronald Reagan once commented on the earthly ministry of Christ: "Meaning no disrespect to the religious convictions of others, I still can't help wondering how we can explain away what to me is the greatest miracle of all and which is recorded in history. No one denies there was such a man, that he lived and that He was put to death by crucifixion. Where....is the miracle I spoke of? Well consider this and let your imagination translate the story into our own time-possibly to your own home town."

"A young man whose father is a carpenter grows up working in His father's shop. One day He puts down His tools and walks out of His father's shop. He starts preaching on street corners and in nearby countryside, walking from place to place, preaching all the while, even though He is not an ordained minister. He does this for three years. Then He is arrested, tried, and convicted. There is no court of appeal, so He is executed at the age of 33 along with two common thieves. Those in charge of His execution roll dice to see who gets His clothing-the only possessions He has. His family cannot afford a burial place for Him so He is interred in a borrowed tomb. End of story? No, this uneducated, property less young man who....left no written word has, for 2,000 years, had a greater effect on the world than all the rulers, kings, emperors; all put together. How do we explain that?....unless He really was who He said He was."

As President Reagan noted, Jesus has had more impact on the world than any ruler or philosopher who has ever lived. He changed history by his birth and is still changing the world today.

How can Abortion be Health Care?

Parenthood and the abortion lobby define abortion as health care, as being morally equivalent tPlanned o a tonsillectomy. On Planned Parenthood’s Web site, the very first category under Health on the navigation bar is Abortion. The abortion lobby for years has been using poll tested language to try to main stream abortion into the health care category. They call abortion "reproductive health" and now are trying to just label it as your average health care issue,as a tonsillectomy. They know if they can redefine abortion from  what it is, to just another aspect of health care they will have won the debate. It will cease to be such a wide spread hot button issue and be categorized as health care by the federal government. The Americans United for Life legal team has documented cases in seven circuit courts and several federal district courts where the “mandatory categories of care” under Medicaid have been defined to include abortion. This is a disingenuous use of medicaid money.

Common sense would tell anyone that abortion is not health care. How could something, with its main objective to stop the beating of a human heart and subsequently cause that humans intentional death, be considered health care? Abortion by its very nature is the exact opposite of health care, and the abortion lobby knows this. That is why they have, for the past several years, been using their poll tested language for abortion, "reproductive health", as their new code word for abortion. So what is abortion? According to the dictionary, abortion is  the removal of an embryo or fetus from the uterus in order to end a pregnancy and/or any of various surgical methods for terminating a pregnancy, especially during the first six months.

So what are some of these so called "reproductive health" methods for terminating a pregnancy? During the first twelve weeks "suction abortion" is the most common technique used. Basically this procedure involves the use of a vacuum type machine used to suck the fetus out. This machine is 29 times more powerful than a common vacuum it basically tears the fetus and placenta into small pieces which are sucked through the tube into a bottle and discarded. Another method, which used to be very popular, is saline poisoning. A long needle injects a strong salt solution through the mother's abdomen into the baby's sac. The baby swallows this fluid and is poisoned by it. It also acts as a corrosive, burning off the outer layer of skin. It normally takes somewhat over an hour for the baby to die from this. Within 24 hours, labor will usually set in and the mother will give birth to a dead or dying baby. (There have been many cases of these babies being born alive. They are usually left unattended to die. However, a few have survived and later been adopted.). I am literally getting sick to my stomach as I write this. Will just tell you of one more method then I have to stop, this is just too heart wrenching to write about any more. The most cruel and in human method, which is currently restricted by law, of abortion is Partial Birth Abortion. The five steps to this are: 1) Guided by ultrasound, the abortionist grabs the baby's legs with forceps, 2) The baby's leg is pulled out into the birth canal, 3) The abortionist delivers the baby's entire body, except for the head, 4) The abortionist jams scissors into the baby's skull. The scissors are then opened to enlarge the skull, and 5) The scissors are removed and a suction catheter is inserted. The child's brains are sucked out, causing the skull to collapse. The dead baby is then removed.

I refer back to my original question, How can abortion be health care? Did any of this sound like health or care to you? How can anyone justify doing this? How can this be considered "a right" guaranteed by the Constitution (Roe v. Wade)? How can the members of the cultural left expect normal caring people to stand by silently while this is going on? How can they have the gall to think that they can relabel abortion as "reproductive health" and it will be OK? I end how i began. How can abortion be health care?

Democrats the Party of NO! To anything that would actually help America

The illogic of the Democrats does not cease to amaze me. They keep saying we need to tax the rich. They say the rich need to pay more taxes to the federal government. Well taxes is simply revenue the government collects to use to pay for national defense, entitlement programs and for use in the general welfare of the republic and it's citizens. So the Dem's say we need more revenue from the wealthiest of Americans coming into the federal coffers. All right then the Republicans propose making the wealthiest of Americans pay more for their medicare. In response to this logical, responsible and fair proposal to bring more revenue into the government and get that revenue from the wealthiest of Americans the Dem's come out against it. The Dem's say they want to create more jobs and they would prefer those jobs be union jobs too. So the Republicans propose a vote on allowing the Key Stone oil pipeline to go from Canada to the gulf coast. This pipeline project would create an immediate 20,000 jobs and create an additional 100,000 spin off jobs. Most of these jobs will be high paying union jobs. So guess what, the Dem's are against that too. The Dem's say they want to lower the deficit and reduce spending but they cant seem to stop themselves from proposing one spending program after the other. The Dem's say they want a bipartisan payroll tax cut bill, but they reject and attack anything proposed by the Republicans. The Democratic party leadership is inept, out of touch, selfish and cowardly. They are afraid of doing anything other that spending more of our money. They don't want to curtail the spending programs because as long as they can keep spending money they can keep wielding power. President Obama is the weakest, most unpatriotic, illogical and unable to see or face reality of a President the country has ever had. We need change. We need change now Mr. President for the sake of our blessed country we need you to be changing your address come January of 2012!

The Main Principles of Americanism

The principle of the Sovereignty of the People is one of the key principles of what I call Americanism. You have distinctive forms of government around the world. You have Communism, Marxism, Socialism, Dictatorships, you have so called Theocracies in the Middle East. I propose Americas form and attitude of governance is peculiar to her. I suggest no other country in the world has ever had such a form or governance and spirit of independence as has America. In America the principle of the Sovereignty of the People is recognized by customs and proclaimed by our laws. It arrives unimpeded to the remotest parts of our land. This principle can be studied and seen in the affairs of the country. Example, the sovereign will of the people can be seen and expressed in the elections of our representatives. If we feel our sovereign rights are not being protected we will exercises our rights and vote the members of government we perceive to be in error out. In America all power comes from the hands of the people and we submit and trust that power to the hands of the elected government. If they break that trust they are not usually long in office. The people participate in the making of our laws by the choosing of our legislatures. We participate in the execution of our laws by the choosing of our executives. The people are the sovereigns of the political world in America. The power of all elected officials ultimately originates of the people, by the people and for the people. Let us guard earnestly this principle of Americanism and when it is threatened let us defend it!

Most American's Pay NO TAXES?!

Taxes are all about the numbers. Tax rates, income brackets and what you may owe or get back as a refund from the I.R.S. An analysis by the Joint Committee on Taxation found that the majority of Americans get a free ride on the backs of the minority. The Committee found that only 49% of Americans in 2009 paid any taxes, 51% paid no taxes at all. The same report also pointed out that 30% actually made money, profited thanks to the tax code.

The Joint Committee said  the 2009 figures are not yet final, but the unofficial results are devastating enough. We are now a 'nanny state' where the minority pays for and takes care of all the governmental needs of the majority, and some of the minority actually make money off the tax code (i.e. Earned Income Credit).

The Joint Committee numbers are slightly higher than the recent report by the nonprofit Tax Policy Center that said around 45% of U.S. households will end up paying no taxes. Again, these studies look at income taxes, not other taxes such as FICA payroll taxes that go toward the Social Security and Medicare programs.

A Tax Fairness hearing has been requested by the Seante Finance committe to look into the distribution of tax benefits and the overall burden of the tax code to those who pay the taxes. In his opening remarks, Senate Finance Chair Max Baucus (D-Mont.) pointed out the perception by many taxpayers that loopholes and tax benefits exist mainly for the rich. This, he said, makes it difficult to achieve the goal to see a fairer and more equitable tax system.

Reconciling the tax loopholes so that everyone is satisfied, including the U.S. Treasury and the IRS, is no easy task. Senate Finance Ranking Member Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) said in his opening statement, "How Washington politicians hope to determine this fair share in an even-handed way that does no harm to our economy and job creators remains a mystery to me." You sure can bet that Hatch and his colleagues will get lots of suggestions of how to solve the tax code problem as the debate continues.

The Need of the End of the Obama Presidency

The America we know is rapidly disappearing. Thanks in large part to the disastrous presidency of his Eminence B. H. Obama. His liberal policies, and lack of leadership is destroying our economy and society. The blind lemmings that follow him regardless of what he does or what he stands for. You cant tell me that all the democrats in this country believe like Obama. So then why do they vote for them. If people would actually pay attention to what politicians believe and vote intelligently, and vote for themselves and not for party we could change the country for the good. I blame the conservative middle of the road Americans who keep voting democratic just because they always have or because that is the way mom or dad voted. Open your eyes. Listen and vote intelligently. You seriously could not want the country to be like it is. The country will only get worse under four more years of Obama. Four more years of Obama would be the end of the late great United States.

Why the Blago Sentence was wrong!

The sentence of 14 years Gov. Rod Blagojevich received is considered by many legal experts as pretty harsh. It is the wrong sentence. The former Governor received an unfair and morally wrong sentence of 14 years from Judge Zagel. I know some people will say "but that was not even half of what the guidelines suggested his sentence should be". Let me say this, what he did was wrong, dishonest, and self serving, but it was not worthy of receiving 14 years in a Federal penitentiary; missing the lives of his young girls as they grow up. This sentence is also, I contend, arguably unconstitutional - as in cruel and unusual punishment. I am no fan of the Ex-Governors, but what he basically got convicted of was nothing more than talking about doing something illegal without actually ever doing it. How many of us say things contemplating doing something illegal, like "man I could kill him," or " I should take that stuff from work, it would only be fair they don't pay me enough." Now what if you then were arrested on charges of murder and theft just because you talked about doing them. You never would have done them and you never did, but you were arrested, tried, convicted and sent to prison just for saying them. What does this say about are justice system. We have child rapists being set free after just a few years, and then you have a man talk about doing something wrong and he goes away to prison for 14 years?

Jackson / Lincoln - remarkable how history works out.

At the close of the great nullifier's debate where the south sought the right, led by South Carolina and then Vice President Calhoun, who later became Senator of South Carolina, to nullify a federal law if they did not like it. And after the 'great compromise' put together by Senator Clay: President Jackson wrote "Keep me constantly advised of matters relating to the conduct or movements of the nullifier's" he wrote on March 6th 1833, "and all will be well, and the federal union preserved." Two months later Jackson wrote "the tariff was only a pretext, and disunion and southern confederacy the real object. The next pretext will be the Negro, or the slavery question." Six days later President Jackson appointed the new postmaster for New Salem, Illinois a 24 year old lawyer who had just lost a race for state legislature. The post was hardly major but that young lawyer Abraham Lincoln was happy to accept it.

Panetta Scolds Israel - Fox News

Defense Secretary Leon Panetta urged Israel on Friday to "reach out and mend fences" with Turkey, Egypt and other security partners in the Middle East, saying he is troubled by the Jewish state's growing isolation in the volatile region. 

He also pressed Israeli leaders to do more to restart peace talks with the Palestinians -- "Just get to the damned table" -- and underscored President Obama's determination to stop Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. He called Iran "a very grave threat to all of us" and said any Iranian disruption of the free flow of commerce through the Persian Gulf is a "red line" for the U.S. 

In a speech at a Brookings Institution forum, Panetta said that while Israel is not solely responsible for its isolation, it could more actively attempt to reverse the trend. 

"For example, Israel can reach out and mend fences with those who share an interest in regional stability -- countries like Turkey and Egypt, as well as Jordan," he said.
