Amen.

Message to Senator Obama, et al,

Was the invasion of Iraq a mistake? Was the ensuing violence and death not worth it? Was "The Surge" a failure? Rather than sit 2000 miles away and pass judgment, why not ask someone who actually experienced things first hand, like Army Specialist Joe Cook.

And make sure you watch it to the end.



Worth it or not, my heart and gratitude goes out to all our troops. Thank you for your service.

Community Organizers LOVE loopholes

Pay attention people. Pay close attention. Senator Obama promises that he, once elected, will not raise taxes on anyone making over $250,000, $200,000, $150,000 a year. Perhaps someone should ask the Boy Wonder how he defines the term "tax increase". In it's simplest forms, Senator Obama's tax plan will let the Bush Tax Cuts expire in 2010, returning everybody's tax rate back to what it was in 2000. Senator Obama doesn't consider this a tax increase. He considers this as "just letting a tax cut lapse."

He promises not to raise taxes on 95% of working Americans. And he won't. Once he allows the Bush tax cuts to lapse, he will have raised the taxes not on 5%, but 100% of working Americans. We will ALL pay more. And this is BEFORE his actual promised tax increase for some of us.

Ned Barnett from American Thinker explains this (as well as the other 3 lies loopholes in Senator Obama's tax plan) very well...

Check this for yourself. Go to http://www.irs.gov/formspubs/ and pull up the 1040 instructions for 2000 and 2007 and go to the tax tables. Based on your 2007 income, check your taxes rates for 2000 and 2007, and apply them to your taxable income for 2007. In 2000 -- Senator Obama's benchmark year -- you would have paid significantly more taxes for the income you earned in 2007. The Bush Tax Cuts, which Senator Obama has said he will allow to lapse, saved you money, and without those cuts, your taxes will go back up to the 2000 level. Senator Obama doesn't call it a "tax increase," but your taxes under "President" Obama will increase -- significantly.

According to the tax tables in Ned's article, a married family, filing jointly and earning $75,000 a year, will pay $3,074 more in taxes after the Bush tax cuts lapse. A family making just $50,000 will see an increase of $1,512. Remember, Obama doesn't even consider this a tax increase.

Another loophole, pointed out by Ned, is in the Social Security tax.

Currently, there is an inflation-adjusted cap, and according to the non-profit Tax Foundation, in 2006 -- the most recent year for which tax data is available -- only the first $94,700 of an unmarried individual's earnings were subject to the 12.4 percent payroll tax. However, Senator Obama has proposed lifting that cap, adding an additional 12.4 percent tax on every dollar earned above that cap -- and in spite of his promise, impacting all those who earn between $94,700 and $249,999.

I don't know about you, but I'd rather keep the money I make, rather than send it into President Obama for him to redistribute.

Trick or Treat

Obama-nomics in a nutshell

Obama-nonics

Confused about whether or not Obama's tax plan will benefit you or not? Well, you're not alone. His own running mate must be as well. In a campaign speech in Pennsylvania yesterday, Joe Biden made the statement that their promised tax break to the middle class will benefit those who make less than $150,000 a year.

"What we're saying is, that $87 billion tax break doesn't need to go to people making an average of $1.4 million," Biden said. "It should go to middle-class people, people who make $150,000 a year."

Obama originally claimed his tax cuts will benefit those under $250,000, and then he changed it to those under $200,000. Seems the line between rich and poor keeps creeping downward. At this rate, those who make over $50,000 may be considered "rich" and may have all their "wealth" redistributed to those less fortunate.

Sure, his proposed tax plan does have to get passed by Congress first. But with the Dems having control of Congress, it might just be a rubber-stamp away from fruition.

Unfortunately, the McCain campaign is so dysfunctional right now and can't seem to get out of their own way. I have no confidence they will be able to capitalize on this new definition of "rich" enough to make a difference next Tuesday.

Be scared America...be very scared.

I would have expected nothing less

This from The Daily Telegraph...

Warner Brothers has delayed the re-release of a film about American prisoners of war in Vietnam in case it influences the outcome of the US presidential election.
[snip]
The studio has temporarily blocked the release of the DVD version of the 1987 film Hanoi Hilton, which will feature an interview with John McCain, the Republican presidential candidate, about his imprisonment in Hoa Lo prison during the war.

The film, which gave a favorable portrayal of US prisoners, will now be released on November 11 - a week after the election.

But why?

Barry Meyer, the company's chairman and chief executive, last month attended a fundraising dinner for Barack Obama, Mr McCain's Democratic opponent.

Ahhh...that's why.

However, W, the 2-hour anti-Bush bash, was released this past weekend...3 weeks before the election (by a different studio)

Hollywood sure doesn't seem like they're playing sides, do they???

Obama Hood

Robin Hood steals from the rich and gives to the poor. How is this any different than Obama Hood? His proposals claim to do just that.

Listen here as Obama explains to a small business owner why he will pay more taxes.

PLUMBER : “Your new tax plan is gonna tax me more.”

OBAMA: “It’s not that I want to punish your success, I just want to make sure that everybody who is behind you, that they’ve got a chance at success, too. I think that when you spread the wealth around it’s good for everybody.”

Spread the wealth around? Is that how he describes it? How exactly does this help anybody? Rather than promote policies to spread economic growth, Obama would rather just spread the wealth. Rather than ween people from the welfare ranks, Obama would rather just spread the wealth. Rather than encourage others to work hard and succeed and better themselves, Obama would rather just spread the wealth.

Let's see. I can go out and get a job, work hard, apply myself, and get off the gobmint's teat, or I can just vote for Obama in November and he'll give me all "The Man's" money.

Hmmm. Decisions. Decisions.

He hasn't won quite yet...

I realize it's probably only a matter of time before the Chosen One ascends to his throne in heaven Washington, smiles upon us and grants us world peace and tranquility, with rainbows, and butterflies reigning o'er the land. But don't count the lemmings chickens before they hatch. On November 1, 2004, John Kerry had a large lead over George W in the polls, too.



Here's the link...

It's not over until the fat lady sings, right?

Scared yet?

Please tell me this isn't true...PLEASE...

From Thomas Lifson over at the American Thinker:

Another piece in the puzzle of Barack Obama has been revealed, greatly strengthening the picture of a man groomed by an older generation of radical leftists for insertion into the American political process, trading on good looks, brains, educational pedigree, and the desire of the vast majority of the voting public to right the historical racial wrongs of the land.

The New Party was a radical left organization, established in 1992, to amalgamate far left groups and push the United States into socialism by forcing the Democratic Party to the left. It was an attempt to regroup the forces on the left in a new strategy to take power, burrowing from within. The party only lasted until 1998, when its strategy of "fusion" failed to withstand a Supreme Court ruling, but the membership, including Barack Obama, continued to move the Democrats leftward with spectacular success.

Look here for some documentation on The Chosen One's alleged ties to this group.

Web Archives Confirm Barack Obama Was Member Of Socialist 'New Party' In 1996

In June sources released information that during his campaign for the State Senate in Illinois, Barack Obama was endorsed by an organization known as the Chicago "New Party". The 'New Party' was a political party established by the Democratic Socialists of America (the DSA) to push forth the socialist principles of the DSA by focusing on winnable elections at a local level and spreading the Socialist movement upwards.

Scared yet? Here's some more...

The Democratic Socialist Party of America published in their July/August Edition of New Ground 47 Newsletter.

"The Chicago New Party is increasely becoming a viable political organization that can make a different in Chicago politics. It is crucial for a political organization to have a solid infrastructure and visible results in its political program. The New Party has continued to solidify this base...

the NP's '96 Political Program has been enormously successful with 3 of 4 endorsed candidates winning electoral primaries. All four candidates attended the NP membership meeting on April 11th to express their gratitude. Danny Davis, winner in the 7th Congressional District, invited NPers to join his Campaign Steering Committee. Patricia Martin, who won the race for Judge in 7th Subcircuit Court, explained that due to the NP she was able to network and get experienced advice from progressives like Davis. Barack Obama, victor in the 13th State Senate District, encouraged NPers to join in his task forces on Voter Education and Voter Registration."

Is it true? Was he really associated with this group? Seems his alleged ties to Bill Ayers should speak volumes. It was Bill Ayers who launched Boy Wonder's political career.

Any chance the media will expose this within the next 25 days? I highly doubt it. To do so would mean they'd have to either admit they've all been had, or admit they're all in on the plan.

Scared yet?

Creepy, very creepy

For those who have had the privilege to see the YouTube video of the school children singing praise and adoration being brainwashed for Obama before it was pulled from YouTube, here's another version you might like as well:



If you're curious about the original version, it was pulled from YouTube after creating a huge uproar. The original video showed a school children choir performing a rendition of a rather catchy propaganda tune. The children are adorably cute, especially the little girl doing the solo in the beginning and the end. However, as this re-posted video version claims, indoctrinating and brainwashing our children, regardless of your political affiliation, is plain wrong. Let our children be children.

As a side note, the original version was a pet project produced and directed by Jeff Zucker, the head of NBC. Still think the mainstream media is unbiased?

Burning Down the House!!

When teleprompters go on strike...

Great piece from IowaHawk, posted over at Snapped Shot . This is goooood...

Bias? What bias?

As if we needed another example of the mass media's bias towards the Chosen One:

The moderator of Thursday's vice-presidential debate is writing a book to come out about the time the next president takes the oath of office that aims to "shed new light" on Democratic candidate Barack Obama and other "emerging young African American politicians" who are "forging a bold new path to political power."

Here's the Amazon.com listing for the book, due to be released on January 20, 2009, the actual date of the next inauguration. According to the Editorial Review, the book will be

shedding new light on Barack Obama’s stunning presidential campaign and introducing the emerging young African American politicians forging a bold new path to political power."

Let me ask you this? Just how many of those books do you think she will sell if the Chosen One somehow doesn't ascend into the White House in January?
