Dick Morris, a former adviser to Bill Clinton and Trent Lott wrote an article about why Barack is speaking of doom and gloom and why the markets hate listening to him speak. "And then there is the matter of blame. The deeper the mess goes — and the further down his rhetoric drives it — the more imperative it becomes to lay off the blame on Bush. He must perpetually “discover” — to his shock — how deep the crisis that he inherited runs, stoking global fears in the process.
So, having inherited a recession, his words are creating a depression. He entered office amid a disaster and he is transforming it into a catastrophe, all to pass every last bit of government spending and move us a bit further to the left before his political capital dwindles.
But the jig will be up soon. The crash of the stock market in the days since he took power (indeed, from the moment he won the election) can increasingly be attributed to his own failure to lead us in the right direction, his failed policies in addressing the recession and his own spreading of panic and fear. The market collapse makes it evident that it is Obama who is the problem, where he should, instead, be the solution."

Senator Dodd's Interview regarding receiving a (bribe) sweet deal on his mortgage from Countrywide.
What do the Post Office, the Senate and Congress Have in Common?
They are all government agencies who lose money each year, but receive raises and bonuses while they talk down privately owned companies.
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/feb/23/congress-will-investigate-postmasters-pay/
There has also been a story out recently about the amount of flying that politicians are doing on private jets with our money. The congress and senate are pushing their green initiatives by taking private jets everywhere they go. Not only is this ironic based on pretend green concerns and the cost of flying privately, but it is also maddening since they are so fiercely attacking private companies for doing the same things. Do all government agencies just think we are stupid?

Al Sharpton, is your job to create racism where none exists? IT PAYS WELL!
Is Al Sharpton the worst kind of bully? This article tells the story of fearful companies giving loads of money to Al so he won't organize a race protest. Are you prostituting your own beloved black man so you can make a buck. It seems like it. Unfortunately for black people, most can't see past others skin color. Maybe it is time you start looking inside the black community for the racists.

So, It Begins! Police Officer Seizes Anti-Obama Sign
Secret Service show up at man's house after apology from the police for unlawfully confiscating his Anti-Obama sign. Sign says "Abort Obama Not the Unborn". And where were the police and Secret Service when death threats were pouring in to George Bush. It is amazing that this administration is shoving policies down our throat and bullying people into their line of thinking.
It is unfortunate. Next, Filters on the internet will be put in place to block anti Obama messages. Free thought will put you in the hands of the goon squad, which Obama hopes to have in place.
Remember the hanging of Sara Palin and burning John McCain in effigy. Those were OK because freedom is one sided. Be a mindless liberal and have the unused opportunity to think.
Next history will be re-written and next will come 1984.

North Dakota House Passes Bill Banning Abortion
THERE IS HOPE FOR REASONABLY MINDED PEOPLE.
Roe v Wade said that the problem lies in the question: When do you give rights to an unborn child? This bill sets the time at conception, giving unborn children the same rights as born children. Effectively, they have made it a crime to murder an unborn child.

Homeowners Take A Stand
Yes, CNBC. Thank you for making us feel better about being a dishonest nation. Now we can all rally around each other while we cheat our way out of paying for a home. The Articles Title is Homeowners Take a Stand. The title should be Dishonest Americans Cheat Banks.
Are we proud of what we are excited about. We now have a great way to avoid foreclosure. It's not the traditional idea of paying what you agreed to or face foreclosure. It is a new idea. A grand idea. Throw any road block in the way of the bank to stall foreclosure proceedings, not because you want time to bring the mortgage current, but because you want to live for free off of an eventual bailout by your next door neighbor (the taxpayer).
Why are we proud of being dishonest? Who we are as individuals creates who we are as a nation.

Self-Reliance
President Marion G. Romney gave a talk titled, The Celestial Nature of Self-Reliance (This article can be found in the March 2009 edition of the Ensign). In this talk he tells a story he clipped from a Reader's Digest.
"I clipped the following article from the Reader's Digest some time ago. It reads: In our friendly neighbor city of St. Augustine great flocks of sea gulls are starving amid plenty. Fishing is still good, but the gulls don't know how to fish. For generations they have depended on the shrimp fleet to toss the scraps from the nets. Now the fleet has moved. . .
"The shrimpers had created a Welfare State for the. . . sea gulls. The big birds never bothered to learn how to fish for themselves and they never taught their children to fish. Instead they led their little ones to the shrimp nets.
"Now the sea gulls, the fine free birds that almost symbolize liberty itself, are starving to death because they gave in to the 'something for nothing' lure! They sacrificed their independence for a handout.
"A lot of people are like that, too. They see nothing wrong in picking delectable scraps from the tax nets of the U.S. Government's 'shrimp fleet.' But what will happen when the Government runs out of goods? What about our children of generations to come?
"Let's not be gullible gulls. We . . . must preserve our talents of self-sufficiency, our genius for creating things for ourselves, our sense of thrift and our true love of independence.
"The practice of coveting and receiving unearned benefits has now become so fixed in our society that even men of wealth, possessing the means to produce more wealth, are expecting the government to guarantee them a profit. Elections often turn on what the candidates promise to do for voters from government funds. This practice, if universally accepted and implemented in any society, will make slaves of its citizens."
Did all you hoping to gain from the recent bail-outs get that? Government handouts will turn you into a slave!!! This is spoken by a prophet of God. He saw our day and spoke about it in 1982. Prophets can see the future and he warned us about government hand-outs 27 years ago. If he got that right then maybe we should listen to him about what bail-outs (government handouts) will do to us! Prophets talking about profits. I love it.
We the people must take responsibility for our actions. We voted ourselves benefits we cannot afford. Now we must vote for those that will take them away. We need to provide for ourselves and get the power hungry government out of our lives. In the March 2009 Ensign Elder M. Russell Ballard quotes the Church Handbook of Instructions in his essay titled Becoming Self-Reliant Spiritually and Physically. "The Savior has commanded the Church and its members to be self-reliant and independent. . . To become self-reliant, a person must work. Work is physical, mental, or spiritual effort. It is basic source of happiness, self-worth, and prosperity. Through work, people accomplish many good things in their lives . . ."
Just say no to the government dole!

American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.
While reading the American Recovery & Reinvestment act of 2009 I came across some items that did not sit well with me in the Health Information Technology section (making all medical records electronic by 2014).
For instance, "The term ‘enterprise integration’ means the electronic linkage of health care providers, health plans, the government, and other interested parties, to enable the electronic exchange and use of health information among all the components in the health care infrastructure in accordance with applicable law, and such term includes related application protocols and other related standards."
I do not want "enterprise integration" of my medical records to the government or other interested parties. What does other interested parties mean? Life insurance companies? Health insurance companies? Pharmaceutical companies? Are they going to be able to access this information and deny me benefits, increase by rates, or try to sell me prescription drugs? This is just too much government integration for me.
Another portion of this bill I found disturbing while reading it was this. ". . . improves the coordination of care and information among hospitals, laboratories, physician offices, and other entities through an effective infrastructure for the secure and authorized exchange of
health care information;"
There is that term other entities again. What, my doctor has to be told what to do from another entity?
There are benefits to this of course, but why is it being sold in a Recovery Act. I have not heard any politicians talk about this. Oh, that's right they have not read it, they were not given time to read it. They were told just to hurry up and vote for it so we can all be saved by the government because we are too dumb to help ourselves.

What is Obama up to?
OBAMA BURNED: GREGG WITHDRAWS AFTER POLICIES TOO MUCH TO STOMACH Thu Feb 12 2009 16:18:14 ET For Immediate Release: Thursday, February 12, 2009
Senator Gregg Statement on His Withdrawal for Consideration of U.S. Commerce Secretary Sen. Gregg stated, “I want to thank the President for nominating me to serve in his Cabinet as Secretary of Commerce. This was a great honor, and I had felt that I could bring some views and ideas that would assist him in governing during this difficult time. I especially admire his willingness to reach across the aisle. “However, it has become apparent during this process that this will not work for me as I have found that on issues such as the stimulus package and the Census there are irresolvable conflicts for me. Prior to accepting this post, we had discussed these and other potential differences, but unfortunately we did not adequately focus on these concerns. We are functioning from a different set of views on many critical items of policy. “Obviously the President requires a team that is fully supportive of all his initiatives. “I greatly admire President Obama and know our country will benefit from his leadership, but at this time I must withdraw my name from consideration for this position. “As we move forward, I expect there will be many issues and initiatives where I can and will work to assure the success of the President’s proposals. This will certainly be a goal of mine. “Kathy and I also want to specifically thank Governor Lynch and Bonnie Newman for their friendship and assistance during this period. In addition we wish to thank all the people, especially in New Hampshire, who have been so kind and generous in their supportive comments. “As a further matter of clarification, nothing about the vetting process played any role in this decision. I will continue to represent the people of New Hampshire in the United States Senate.”

Wow, Can Dems still say it is Republicans that are the Haters!
Tom Daschle (Democrat)- Can you be anymore sinister? Once Obama's nominee for Health and Human Services Department, Tom added to the bailout plan the requirement to report all medical records to a government database. I don't want the government involved in how my doctor treats me. I pay into medicare with each of my paychecks and I receive nothing for it. Nor do I want anything from it.
What's more scary is that Daschle thinks the elderly "should be more accepting of the conditions that come with age instead of treating them". I wonder if he'll say the same thing when he's feeling the effects of age. I'm sure he doesn't understand reality since he has worked for the government and has received government health care benefits for the last 30 years. The masses need to understand that they are going to get old, while the government leaders receive special treatment so they'll never feel old.
"He praises Europeans for being more willing to accept “hopeless diagnoses” and “forgo experimental treatments,” and he chastises Americans for expecting too much from the health-care system."
"Daschle's Goal is to slow the development and use of new medications and technologies because they are driving up costs." What a thoughtful gentleman. Our medical technology under the private sector is improving to quickly and is making the government look bad.

Let us Remember True Principles
An article was published in 1968 by Ezra Taft Benson titled, The Proper Role of Government. In it he clearly states that it is not the role of government to take from one to give to another. He goes on to say that if we do, then we put ourselves on a slippery slope of government handouts and less freedom.
These comments seem needed more than ever as our government prepares yet another bailout plan. The government seems to think the bigger the bailout, the better. Let us remember this principal, DEBT IS BAD. That is what got us into this mess and when the government gets into too much debt the consequences are going to be worse than we are seeing now.
We live in a time when the State of California cannot give back overpaid taxes because it is broke. Ezra Taft Benson speaks of a state taking Federal money in his essay The Proper Role of Government published in 1968 (linked above). He stated, "I consider it a violation of the Constitution for the Federal Government to levy taxes for the support of state or local government; that no State or local government can accept funds from the Federal and remain independent in performing its functions, nor can the citizens exercise their rights of self-government under such conditions. (http://www.zionsbest.com/proper_role.html)"
Another major theme in Benson's essay is socialism. Under his heading "Things the Government Should not Do" Benson states, "A category of government activity which, today, not only requires the closest scrutiny, but which also poses a grave danger to our continued freedom, is the activity NOT within the proper sphere of government. No one has the authority to grant such powers, as welfare programs, schemes for re-distributing the wealth, and activities which coerce people into acting in accordance with a prescribed code of social planning. There is one simple test. Do I as an individual have a right to use force upon my neighbor to accomplish this goal? If I do have such a right, then I may delegate that power to my government to exercise on my behalf. If I do not have that right as an individual, then I cannot delegate it to government, and I cannot ask my government to perform the act for me. http://www.zionsbest.com/proper_role.html"
Benson then gives an example from James R. Evans, in his book, The Glorious Quest.
"Assume, for example, that we were farmers, and that we received a letter from the government telling us that we were going to get a thousand dollars this year for plowed up acreage. But rather than the normal method of collection, we were to take this letter and collect $69.71 from Bill Brown, at such and such an address, and $82.47 from Henry Jones, $59.80 from a Bill Smith, and so on down the line; that these men would make up our farm subsidy. "Neither you nor I, nor would 99 percent of the farmers, walk up and ring a man's doorbell, hold out a hand and say, 'Give me what you've earned even though I have not.' We simply wouldn't do it because we would be facing directly the violation of a moral law, 'Thou shalt not steal.' In short, we would be held accountable for our actions. (http://www.zionsbest.com/proper_role.html)"
We need to wake up and stop voting ourselves benefits we have no right to have. We need to stop allowing the government to redistribute our wealth to a ruling elite. Benson's article was published in 1968, what would he have to say now?

The New Politics

Here is a link to an article I believe tells us what the government is really up to.
The Fierce Urgency of Pork
This "bailout" is a SCAM.
This bailout will bring us up to $9.7 Trillion dollars. That is 90% of the TOTAL of the nations home mortgages.
