Faulty Material

President Obama decided to cease operations in Iraq by the end
of the year even though our mission has not been completed there.
He added, "it will enable us to build up our country again", not
acknowledging his responsibility for having torn it down in the first
place, by his inept policies for which he blames others for.

Negative statistics have increased significantly since his tenure,
and positive progress has become stagnant or diminishing under
his administration's Chicago style political guidance; not Iraq,
not Afghanistan, not Bush!

Another four years of him will get us to a point of no return and
a hole we will never be able to dig ourselves out of.

Idiots voted him into office, and you know the old saying,
"Birds of a Feather Flock Together," because they understand
him and he speaks their language.

From the beginning his plan for our country has always been to
tear America down so that he can rebuild it with his own ideological
lumber and bricks; but it turns out the material and construction
methods he wants to incorporate are inferior and unreliable.

Europe's socialist nations, primarily Greece, are structured with the
same philosophical material and they are crumbling under economic
stress. We borrowed the theme of democracy from Greece. Let us not
borrow its destructive ways.

By abandoning Iraq now, we will be leaving an ember waiting to ignite
into a much larger problem to cope with in the future.

MORT’s Meanderings

WANTED:
A few good men and women who wore the uniform



Here is a ‘JOBS PLAN’ that as I see it, makes sense.

I believe the time is now, to repopulate the halls of Congress with dozens of former members of the U.S. Military. The men and women who have completed successful careers in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force and Coast Guard, possess precisely the qualities needed in those who deserve to be elected to represent and protect the legal citizens of the United States.

They understand the meaning of the words ‘honor, duty and commitment’. And too, they thoroughly understand the implications of swearing a sacred oath to preserve and protect the Constitution of the United States of America. They have no illusions regarding what it takes to live up to that oath, 24/7.

They’ve proven by their dedicated service to our nation, that they readily accept the burdens of ‘honor, duty and commitment’. I would love to see a requirement for a Congressional candidate to have served at least one regular hitch in a branch of the U. S. Armed Forces and received an Honorable Discharge, added to the criteria for qualification to run for office. To have a substantial number of veterans of our military serving in the Congress, would be in my opinion, a tremendous boost in the level of character, commitment and leadership in the Congress.

Who better to fill these jobs than men and women who have been highly trained in the disciplines of preserving the principles upon which this nation was founded and who have actually spent years guarding the virtue and freedoms we cherish above all else? Who better to serve as civilian guardians of the Constitution than those who have spent so much of their careers doing that job as military guardians? They don’t have to be taught American history - they’ve lived it, they’ve written it. Back in their early days as raw recruits, they learned to be self-reliant and yet, be part of a tightly-knit unit – to function as a team – and when the situation called for it, to quickly step forward into a leadership role. Only as a member of our military can this kind of individual development be experienced. Only as a member of our Armed Forces can these valuable lessons-learned and skills acquired, be imprinted indelibly onto the very DNA of ordinary citizens. Thus, these ‘ordinary’ citizens who’ve served our nation and worn the uniform, comprise an invaluable resource from which to draw truly exceptional candidates for elected office.

And, because they have become extraordinarily adept at recognizing and evaluating emergencies and have been so thoroughly schooled and practiced at prioritizing, planning and implementation, they are well positioned to function effectively in elected office – with a minimum of wasted effort and a maximum of on-target results. They expect to hit the bullseye.

Even though they might have spent several decades in uniform and earned the perks of retirement, many will still heed the call to extend their service to our nation by devoting another six or eight productive years as a Member of the United States Congress. We should only be so lucky.

Democrat Party Crushes America

January 3, 2007---Time for a reminder.

Don’t just skim over this, read it slowly and let it sink in. If in doubt, check it out.


The day the democrats took over was not January 22nd 2009, it was actually January 3rd 2007 the day the Democrats took over the House of Representatives and the Senate, at the very start of the 110th Congress.

The Democrat Party controlled a majority in both chambers for the first time since the end of the 103rd Congress in 1995.

For those who are listening to the liberals propagating the fallacy that everything is "Bush's Fault", think about this:

January 3rd, 2007 was the day the Democrats took over the Senate and the Congress:

At the time:

The DOW Jones closed at 12,621.77

The GDP for the previous quarter was 3.5%

The Unemployment rate was 4.6%

George Bush's Economic policies SET A RECORD of 52 STRAIGHT MONTHS of JOB CREATION!

Remember the day...

January 3rd, 2007 was the day that Barney Frank took over the House Financial Services Committee and Chris Dodd took over the Senate Banking Committee.

The economic meltdown that happened 15 months later was in what part of the economy?

BANKING AND FINANCIAL SERVICES!

THANK YOU DEMOCRATS for taking us from 13,000 DOW, 3.5 GDP and 4.6% Unemployment... to this CRISIS by (among MANY other things) dumping 5-6 TRILLION Dollars of toxic loans on the economy from YOUR Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac FIASCOES!

(BTW: Bush asked Congress 17 TIMES to stop Fannie & Freddie - starting in 2001 because it was financially risky for the US economy).

And who took the THIRD highest pay-off from Fannie Mae AND Freddie Mac? OBAMA

And who fought against reform of Fannie and Freddie?

OBAMA and the Democrat Congress

So when someone tries to blame Bush...

REMEMBER JANUARY 3rd, 2007.... THE DAY THE DEMOCRATS TOOK OVER!

Bush may have been in the car but the Democrats were in charge of the gas pedal and steering wheel they were driving.

Budgets do not come from the White House. They come from Congress and the party that controlled Congress

since January 2007 is the Democrat Party.

Furthermore, the Democrats controlled the budget process for 2008 & 2009 as well as 2010 &2011.

In that first year, they had to contend with George Bush, which caused them to compromise on spending, when Bush somewhat belatedly got tough on spending increases.

For 2009 though, Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid bypassed George Bush entirely, passing continuing resolutions to keep government running until Barack Obama could take office. At that time, they passed a massive omnibus spending bill to complete the 2009 budgets.

And where was Barack Obama during this time? He was a member of that very Congress that passed all of these massive spending bills, and he signed the omnibus bill as President to complete 2009. Let's remember what the deficits looked like during that period: (below)

If the Democrats inherited any deficit, it was the 2007 deficit, the last of the Republican budgets. That deficit was the lowest in five years, and the fourth straight decline in deficit spending. After that, Democrats in Congress took control of spending, and that includes Barack Obama, who voted for the budgets.

If Obama inherited anything, he inherited it from himself.

Democrats Brought About the Financial Crisis

In a nutshell, what Obama is saying is I inherited a deficit that I voted for
and then I voted to expand that deficit four-fold since January 20th.

There is no way this will be widely publicized, unless each of us sends it on!

MORT’s Meanderings

Objective reporting: A thing of the past



After reading a recent report in the SunSentinel by their political writer, Anthony Man, about Florida Congressman West’s role in an upcoming Chamber of Commerce event to be held in Washington, I was left with a distinct sense of a palpable urge on the part of Mr. Man, to ferret out and report ‘something untoward’ in West’s participation. While Man never actually articulated such a concern, he left no doubt that he has unexpressed reservations about Cong. West.

Call me crazy but ever since he began to cover candidate Allen West, it has been obvious to interested observers, myself included, that Anthony Man has harbored an antipathy with regard to retired U. S. Army Ltc. West, now a duly-elected Congressman. I do admit to a bias; I am an avid supporter of Allen West. Anthony Man however, would certainly deny his bias all day long, as he projects his aforementioned antipathy from behind the curtain around his computer keyboard that obscures his real mindset.

Once again, we are confronted with a biased journalist masquerading as an honest-unbiased reporter of, ‘who-what-where-and-when’.
And my friends, that is an uncontestable fact.

Whose word are you going to take - mine or Snopes?
Ha, I thought so.

GLOBAL WORMING:


The science is unsettled but, the intent is clear.



Ever since the blasts of hot air first began to blow from that ill wind who blows no good, AL ‘Numbnutz’ GORE, the looney-tunes who bought into his nonsense have somehow, managed to become the tail that wags the dog.

For reasons of pure greed and personal aggrandizement, Gore and his army of loose-hinged followers have managed to throw every department of our Federal Government into a tizzy of stumbling over themselves trying to make every issue that should be red, white & blue – into a bilious shade of green. Meaning that no matter the issue, a pall of fault, guilt and blame has been cast over it in order to torture it into some form of green issue. That’s where the Global WORMing comes in. The ’green’ of course, translates into the great gobs of tax dollars the EPA is legally ‘worming’ (extorting) from the hapless citizenry of these United States, regardless of the ludicrous and illogical fake-science put forth by that agency in order to justify its case.

It stinks. Al Gore stinks. The EPA stinks. The Administration that is so complicit in this Federal hustle, stinks.It is a false, phony, illegitimate and corrupt issue. My scientific case for justification of this viewpoint? How about a few million years of history of this globe heating and cooling as it damned well pleased, without the benefit or Al Gore’s stupid, half-witted scientific opinion? And somehow, the human race is still roaming over the surface, bravely but breathlessly, waiting for the Arctic Ocean to flood Florida’s shoreline. Oy vay!
