The Political Ad Everyone Should See!!

I found this very powerful video over at Nice Deb and decided that it needs to go viral - so here it is!!! Spread it around!!

The Obama campaign message of "Hope and Change" in 2008 has turned into Hoax and Chains for millions of Americans who now know how disastrous Obama's policies have been!

It's About Overwhelming the System

I was chastised by Kevin for putting to many links in my last post. Awwww....poor baby! In the comment thread of my last post Kevin commented that what he viewed on the COMMUNIST organization videos over at the New Zeal blog is that the people are being "just fine" and "hav(ing) a good message" - and "People wanted something different."

I nearly fell off my chair!

I think it is all highly dangerous Marxo-Islamo-Fascism that he and his cronies want to instill here in America. There is NOTHING GOOD about any of those ideologies!

I also wrote:

Kevin, I am disappointed. I didn't think that you would ever admit to being THAT naive in order to support your beloved Obama master. What a damn shame!

Here is the link to the article I recommended that he read:

WAYNE ALLYN ROOT: Obama's agenda: Overwhelm the system

Here's a copy of the article:

Rahm Emanuel cynically said, "You never want a crisis to go to waste." It is now becoming clear that the crisis he was referring to is Barack Obama's presidency.

Obama is no fool. He is not incompetent. To the contrary, he is brilliant. He knows exactly what he's doing. He is purposely overwhelming the U.S. economy to create systemic failure, economic crisis and social chaos -- thereby destroying capitalism and our country from within.

Barack Obama is my college classmate (Columbia University, class of '83). As Glenn Beck correctly predicted from day one, Obama is following the plan of Cloward & Piven, two professors at Columbia University. They outlined a plan to socialize America by overwhelming the system with government spending and entitlement demands. Add up the clues below. Taken individually they're alarming. Taken as a whole, it is a brilliant, Machiavellian game plan to turn the United States into a socialist/Marxist state with a permanent majority that desperately needs government for survival ... and can be counted on to always vote for bigger government. Why not? They have no responsibility to pay for it.

-- Universal health care. The health care bill had very little to do with health care. It had everything to do with unionizing millions of hospital and health care workers, as well as adding 15,000 to 20,000 new IRS agents (who will join government employee unions). Obama doesn't care that giving free health care to 30 million Americans will add trillions to the national debt. What he does care about is that it cements the dependence of those 30 million voters to Democrats and big government. Who but a socialist revolutionary would pass this reckless spending bill in the middle of a depression?

-- Cap and trade. Like health care legislation having nothing to do with health care, cap and trade has nothing to do with global warming. It has everything to do with redistribution of income, government control of the economy and a criminal payoff to Obama's biggest contributors. Those powerful and wealthy unions and contributors (like GE, which owns NBC, MSNBC and CNBC) can then be counted on to support everything Obama wants. They will kick-back hundreds of millions of dollars in contributions to Obama and the Democratic Party to keep them in power. The bonus is that all the new taxes on Americans with bigger cars, bigger homes and businesses helps Obama "spread the wealth around."

-- Make Puerto Rico a state. Why? Who's asking for a 51st state? Who's asking for millions of new welfare recipients and government entitlement addicts in the middle of a depression? Certainly not American taxpayers. But this has been Obama's plan all along. His goal is to add two new Democrat senators, five Democrat congressman and a million loyal Democratic voters who are dependent on big government.

-- Legalize 12 million illegal immigrants. Just giving these 12 million potential new citizens free health care alone could overwhelm the system and bankrupt America. But it adds 12 million reliable new Democrat voters who can be counted on to support big government. Add another few trillion dollars in welfare, aid to dependent children, food stamps, free medical, education, tax credits for the poor, and eventually Social Security.

-- Stimulus and bailouts. Where did all that money go? It went to Democrat contributors, organizations (ACORN), and unions -- including billions of dollars to save or create jobs of government employees across the country. It went to save GM and Chrysler so that their employees could keep paying union dues. It went to AIG so that Goldman Sachs could be bailed out (after giving Obama almost $1 million in contributions). A staggering $125 billion went to teachers (thereby protecting their union dues). All those public employees will vote loyally Democrat to protect their bloated salaries and pensions that are bankrupting America. The country goes broke, future generations face a bleak future, but Obama, the Democrat Party, government, and the unions grow more powerful. The ends justify the means.

-- Raise taxes on small business owners, high-income earners, and job creators. Put the entire burden on only the top 20 percent of taxpayers, redistribute the income, punish success, and reward those who did nothing to deserve it (except vote for Obama). Reagan wanted to dramatically cut taxes in order to starve the government. Obama wants to dramatically raise taxes to starve his political opposition.

With the acts outlined above, Obama and his regime have created a vast and rapidly expanding constituency of voters dependent on big government; a vast privileged class of public employees who work for big government; and a government dedicated to destroying capitalism and installing themselves as socialist rulers by overwhelming the system.

Add it up and you've got the perfect Marxist scheme -- all devised by my Columbia University college classmate Barack Obama.

Wayne Allyn Root was the 2008 Libertarian Party vice presidential nominee and serves on the Libertarian National Committee.

*******

Personally, I still think that Obama is just the puppet and the rich, evil puppeteers are operating the strings of destruction. Mr. Root gives Obama too much credit for creating ways to pull off this ongoing destruction of our Constitutional Republic.

God help us! And...I think He will. All things work together for good for those who love the Lord.

Former United States Ambassador to the United Nations, John Bolton, had comforting words regarding Obama. When he is voted out of office, his terrible policies can, and will be overturned.

I hope that he gets booted out sooner than 2012. Perhaps the Blago trial * (or, any one of the other lawsuit cases against him) will bring an indictment down against him and force him from office.

The Decline: The Geography of a Recession

As they always say, a picture is worth a thousand words! Take a look at this 31 second time-lapse presentation, then ask yourself - so...how's that hopey/changey mantra from the 2008 election workin' for ya?

The Decline: The Geography of a Recession



After one year in office, it is extremely apparent to a majority of Americans that Obama lied throughout his campaign just to get elected. Conservatives saw through his lies way back in the beginning of his run for the presidency. We tried to warn you!! But people got caught up in that "hope and change" mantra. But what kind of "change" was Obama referring to? We are finding out and it's devastatingly bad for our nation! As Rush Limbaugh once quipped, "It's more like hype and chains."

The ACORN Eight Story & More [Breaking News!]

I have fast become a great fan of Glenn Beck's T.V. show on the Fox News Channel. How refreshing it is to see this man have the freedom of speech rights as a news analyst (who is also very funny and entertaining, I might add) to discuss the things that many Americans want to hear about - but is either being muzzled or ignored by the rest of the Lamestream Media pundits.

Beck's shows are power-packed with information that the rest of the media refuses to report. I record it each day so that I don't miss one show. It also helps to be able to rewind and view again when blogging about an issue!

Today's show [Nice Deb has the videos!]
is one that must not be missed! Glenn will have seven of the eight former ACORN board members who, up until now, have not been given any platform to tell their stories about their former involvement with ACORN. During Glenn's show, we will get the inside story (that others don't seem to want to touch with a ten foot pole!) and they will have the chance to express their opinions, concerns, and reasons why they believe that this organization has been highly corrupted.

Yesterday, Kevin Mooney of the Washington Examiner was a guest on Glenn's show. He reiterated the fact that ACORN has nefarious ties to SEIU. Mooney also reported that after his story came out in the newspaper, the SEIU took down their online link to ACORN. Hmmm....

Glenn is right! There is MUCH MORE CORRUPTION going on with these groups than has already been revealed by the lawsuits against ACORN in twelve states for voter registration fraud.. And, the fact that Obama was once a prominent "community organizer" involved with ACORN for years, it will be interesting to see what the former ACORN employees have to say about the time when ACORN changed from being a good organization into its current highly corrupted management.

During Wednesday's broadcast, Glenn pointed out that we didn't elect a president - we elected a community organizer who is now involved with the greatest power grab that this nation has ever seen! Obama wants to control - well - just about EVERYTHING through government.

NOT GOOD!!!

I think that we might find out much more about the intimidation methods of "community organizing" and the Chicago "pay to play" and "corruption" methods than we ever dreamed existed!! It will start with the information that the ACORN seven will share on Glenn's show today.

There was much more important information that Glenn covered on yesterday's show - i.e. the Montana ruling for states' rights, and the reason why the latest "stress test" was made public (think Alinsky rules for radicals and "community organizer" style politics for a hint) while the normal FDIC stress tests are never made public. But they are topics for another day. Or, see my sidebar because many bloggers are discussing them.

I want to focus on just a very short incident that Glenn shared while he was attending the Time magazine "most important people - or something like that" dinner. He mentioned that everyone in the room probably hates him. Well, if you ever see Olberdummy mock Mr. Beck, then you would not blame him for thinking that way.

While sitting at a table of reporters who most likely hate his guts, Glenn said (paraphrased here) - 'I know that we don't see eye to eye on most issues. But I'd like to ask a question. Has anyone here really thought about what our nation will look like four years from now with all of the spending that is going on in our government?'

One woman thought about it and said, (again, paraphrased here) 'No I haven't. I think that perhaps we should.'

Yeah...I think that perhaps EVERYONE SHOULD THINK ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES OF SADDLING TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS WORTH OF DEBT ON OUR CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN!!!

Stay tuned for an update after the show broadcasts today.

BREAKING NEWS UPDATE!

I was just listening to the very end of Glenn Beck's radio program and guess what? The appearance of the ACORN seven is now down to TWO! Glenn made some excuse about the cost of "last minute airfare" (since when has THAT EVER BEEN A PROBLEM FOR A NEWS ORGANIZATION???)

BUT DO YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK??

THOSE PEOPLE WERE MOST LIKELY THREATENED BY THE EXISTING ACORN THUGS!!!

BRAVO FOR THE ONES WHO WOULD NOT ALLOW THEMSELVES TO BE INTIMIDATED OR COWED INTO NOT REVEALING THEIR STORIES!!!

*******
Update: Well, I watched the show and the two brave women who had their say despite the threats shared some powerful information! I will try to locate the youtube videos of the segment and post them here. It is better for readers to see the entire broadcast segment. Then you can make up your own minds about what (and just whom) is behind all of the corruption.

Isn't it odd that John Conyers dropped his call for an investigation into ACORN?

Hmmm...

One of the ladies on the show mentioned that Gerald Nadler was against it and pressured Conyers into dropping the investigation.

Hmmm....

I wonder who else pressured Conyers to shut up??

Keep an eye on this developing story. This is only the beginning - folks.

P.S. Oh yeah!! I can't forget this part. At the very end of Glenn's show, he stated that the hate mail was coming in at an alarming rate. But not only against him - against the women for speaking out!! No surprise there...huh???

Glenn asked for us to pray for their safety. I have and will continue to do so.

However, I think that is the other five had shown up and millions of Americans had heard their stories, too, that they would be more protected due to the fact that they DID speak out - even when threatened (both before and after the show) by the "powers that be." There is something to be said for safety in numbers...in this case - safety in the number of people who now know the truth about corrupt ACORN!!!

Obama's Staged Press Conference - No Accountability

Did you see that sham of a "press conference" that Obama held yesterday? How lame can this idiot get? With each passing day, his antics get worse and worse and our nation is suffering because of it. Did you notice what was not covered? Did you notice how Obama bloviates when answering questions? It's all planned that way. Yup! The more time he spends yapping, the less questions he has to answer. How many did he answer? Was it about 13 or 14?

In an analysis following the bogus conference, Bill O'Reilly mentioned that he got in about 45 questions in his 30 minute interview with Obama back during the campaign. And...notice that Obama selected certain reporters - most likely ahead of time - as he looked down and referred to his list. I would not be a bit surprised if he knew the questions ahead of time so he would have prepared answers. What's more did you notice the softball questions that were asked? Why didn't anyone bring up the low-flying plane over New York incident? - [LINK UPDATED] Why did Obama find it necessary to spend over $300,000.00 of taxpayer money to do a dumb town hall meeting in St. Louis, MO and at the same time mock the TEA Party participants while there? I could go on and on - but you already get the picture. These so-called news conferences ARE BOGUS BECAUSE THEY ARE STAGED!!

I was hoping to find a video that shows what a lying campaigner Barack Hussein Obama was as he and the DNC hijacked and usurped the presidency. Thanks to Nice Deb, I found one this morning. It is not entirely complete - there are SO MANY MORE SCANDALS, errors, faux pas, stupid moves, horrible executive orders, terrible decisions etc. that could be mentioned. In fact, you can read about most of them here, here or here. Those links are just a few locations where you will find the truth about this despicable person and his evil cronies. But seeing this brief video of Obama saying one thing on the campaign trail, and doing quite the opposite once in office is very telling of what a narcissistic liar the man is. There is no other way to see it. Obama IS A LIAR!!

Suffice it to say that the normal, grassroots efforts by everyday Americans who gathered for the TEA (Taxed Enough Already) Parties across the nation have been given PLENTY of reasons to protest the bailouts, porkulus spending, scandals and all the rest (see list above) of the nonsense that this Bogus Potus and his awful administration has inflicted upon the us, the Citizens of the United States of America.

Obama's Abysmal Lack of Discernment [Video Added]

Over at Gateway Pundit, I just read about Obama laughing during his 60 minutes interview. He laughs while our nation is in dire straits economically?? Even the interviewer couldn't believe it! He asked Obama, "are you punch-drunk?"

NOBama acts like a freakin' baby! He has a spiritual shallowness that shows his abysmal lack of discernment. We are seeing this phony deteriorate right before our very eyes.

Why does he keep appearing on news and talk shows? He is self-seeking for his own feelings and experiences. A narcissist at the core!

Think about it people. An infant is completely self-centered. The characteristic that is most descriptive of an infant is selfishness. They scream if they don't get what they want when they want it (forcing Congress to pass his stupid StimuWASTE and OmniBUST bills) - without even reading them??

All that ObamaFRAUD is aware of is his own needs and desires. Who in their right mind would say "gallows humor" when a reporter confronts him about laughing while our economy is in crisis? It is unconscionable to me that we haven't thrown his a** out of office already!

Just like an infant, Obama can't help others. He never says thanks for anything and can't give what is needed to fix this economy. So what does he do? He stays in "campaign mode" and tries to keep his "celebrity idol" image intact. I'm telling you people, his development is so lagging that I don't think we will ever see him get past the stage of helpless selfishness.

What a tragedy for our nation!!

Even leaders in other countries are snickering and laughing at him for his ineptitude!

ObamaUSURPER is totally preoccupied with self. That is why he can laugh during a 60 minutes interview. The guy has no conscience! He appears to have a dark soul - too. His comment gaffe about Special Olympics athletes shows how little he really cares about others. The same can be said about his tragically abnormal psyche and worldview regarding killing infants through abortion - even if they are born alive after a botched abortion.

ObamaCREEP has such a severe lack of discernment that it reveals a spiritual apathy that is deadly evil.

Guess I just needed to vent. I am finding it very difficult to hold back my anger at Obama for the many ways that he is utilizing to try and destroy our great country!

Please God - have mercy on us and save us from this disastrous man and give our nation a REAL, GENUINE LEADER FOR PRESIDENT!!

As usual, Michele Malkin's got it right and is exactly on point. Her new column Look Beyond The Bogus Bonus Smokescreen reiterates what Glenn Beck covered recently (the printing of one trillion dollars the other day) plus all of the other terrible spending that Resident Obama and the Democratic majority are doing - supposedly without the awareness and behind the backs of most Americans.

Great comments at The Forum

Heard on Fox News this morning that AIG employees are fearful for their lives! A memo went out to not wear their AIG badges in public, travel in pairs, don't discuss AIG. What is this? CONGRESS - EXPRESSLY THAT CROOK CHRIS DODD IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS DEBACLE!!

AIG employees have to run for their lives while ACORN shamelessly still works to intimidate people? What is wrong with this picture, people?

Update on Obama Citizenship being questioned:

Read this article: Taitz to FBI: Investigate 'tampering' at Supremes
'305 million Americans need to know if foreign national is usurping presidency'

Listen to the video tapes of an interview with Orly Taitz at Citizen Wells blog

Then, see the video clip of Orly confronting Chief Justice John Roberts during a lecture at a university in Idaho.

Orly had previously given the documents to Justice Scalia during a book signing.

Therefore, TWO JUSTICES are now FULLY AWARE of all of the information (provided that they read them!!) in Orly's arguments for her case (that is now suspected of being sidestepped through the alleged illegal tampering of a clerk at the Supreme Court!). If nothing is done from here, then we know that the Supreme Court must have been bought, threatened, silenced, or all three.

If it is found to be true that the SCOTUS clerk DID TAMPER with Orly's case, and something is done about it in the near future, then perhaps we have a chance of ousting Resident Obama.

More and more people are finding out about all of the Obama citizenship cases and the questions surrounding his refusal to release documents about his past.

It has been suggested on other blogs to bring copies of website links (Orly's blog, Citizen Wells, etc.) with you when you attend a Tea Party protest and give out the fliers to those who may not already know the details about Obama's citizenship issues.

More Disturbing Each Day

“Liberty may be endangered by the abuse of liberty, but also by the abuse of power.”
- James Madison
Read more from the Founding Fathers here.

I don't know about you, readers, but I find what is happening in the present administration and Congress more and more disturbing each and every day. In addition to everything that I have already written about Obama and Clueless Congress, now I am wondering when we can actually call what they are doing a form of treason against our country? More importantly, am I even correct that such acts could possibly be considered as treasonous acts?

People...I am confused about this. I admit it. I am not an economics authority. I am not a political authority. I am not one who can easily identify when a crime is actually being commited by Congress and/or our treasury department. But the bailouts and stimulus bills and pork-barrel spending that are happening now does not appear to be aimed in the right direction to help fix this economy. Period. I can only conclude that there is something very sinister going on.

Portions of the following commentary may just amount to opinion and conjecture, on my part. But I am wondering how many other people might possibly be thinking some of the same things?

I have already discussed the fact that this economic crisis was brought about deliberately - in order to get Obama elected. Could it be that those who started this train have now discovered that they cannot stop it? What usually happens to a runaway train with no brakes? Doesn't it crash and burn?

Yesterday, on the Glenn Beck program, the fact that one trillion dollars had been printed and pumped into our economy was discussed. Read Glenn Beck: Last Line of Defense You can also watch the video clip there.

Copy of article:

I've been telling you for weeks to not be distracted by the "big news of the day" because it's usually just a smokescreen. But on Wednesday, I fell for it myself. While everyone — including me — was taking sides on the AIG bonuses, something much more important was happening: The Fed announced it will pump a $1 trillion into the system by buying debt from our treasury.

Since they've lowered interest rates as far as they can, this is really a last ditch effort; it's like they put our entire economy up on the roulette table and the wheel is spinning.

To put this in perspective, think of America like a sick patient with a nasty staph infection. The doctors first try Penicillin to cure the patient. When that doesn't work, they try something else. And when all else fails they hook an IV to the patient.

That last line of defense was just hung over "patient America" yesterday, but we were all — and that includes me — too focused on AIG to notice.

Here's what this means: We're borrowing money from ourselves to pay for programs we can't pay for.

And that's why the price of gold shot up about 75 bucks in 18 hours. Investors aren't stupid. They know the risks this poses, especially to inflation and our dollar.

So let me play doctor here and give you the diagnosis without talking to you like a 4-year-old: The antibiotic we've just been given has never once worked in the history of the civilized world.

Can this time be different? Absolutely, but only if we've got the guts to make some life-changing decisions; decisions that will force us to shoulder some unthinkable pain in the short term, but decisions that may just save this patient's life. What do you think? Send your comments to: glennbeck@foxnews.com

Be sure to watch the video and see what one trillion dollars looks like.

Just two days ago, I asked a financial planner whether or not it is a good idea to invest in gold. After a brief explanation, he concluded that it's not really a "money maker," just comforting for some people to use as part of their investment portfolio. Little did he know what would happen the next day. As Glenn mentioned in his article and video, gold shot up $75 an ounce in 18 HOURS!

We have other countries "worried" about our dollar. I wonder. Are some of them secretly hoping that the dollar collapses and that America will be forced to come under the monetary system of the Euro?

I asked my husband, "Is any of this illegal?" Meaning - the printing of one trillion dollars like this? He said it isn't illegal. There is no law against it.

OK.

So, my next question is, could this be deemed as a treasonous act? Or does it just amount to sabotage?

Can we call Nancy Pelosi a traitor when she calls illegal aliens "patriotic" and the officers who have been hired to enforce the LAWS ON THE BOOKS and DEPORT THEM as "un-American"?

Do WE THE PEOPLE have any recourse against what is happening beside "voting them all out of office?" To me, that will take too long. America's financial system seems to be on life support!! Would WE THE PEOPLE be accused of sedition for protesting against what is happening?

I only caught a portion of Glenn's radio show yesterday, but he was discussing a questionnaire that asks many questions (i.e. Do you have a Ron Paul sticker on your car? or the "Don't Tread on Me" bumper sticker on your car?) which might identify you either as a suspected "militia member" or as a "domestic terrorist." No - I'm not kidding about those two questions on the list!

So, If you have a "Constitution Party" emblem on your car, you could be suspected of being a militia member?

In other words, if you don't "fall in line" and/or disagree with any part of the current administration, could YOU be labeled as a "domestic terrorist?"

Hmmm....I thought that this administration dropped the term "terrorist" for the Islamic "extremists" who want to kill Americans?

BTW, did you see that video of Obama at a town hall meeting in Orange County, CA where he described AIG as like "wearing a suicide bomber's belt while having the trigger in one hand?" (Trying to locate the video clip).

Then last night, we had the Gaffer in Chief (as my blogging friend Neil so aptly named him) insult the athletes of the Special Olympics. Go read Nice Deb's entire post. Remember the "nappy headed ho" comment from Imus? Recall what Obama said about it? It's there.

Could you imagine what would have happened in the media if President Bush ever said such a thing? Of course, Bush would NEVER even THINK such a thing about the Special Olympics participants. Just goes to show what kind of man Obama really is. Ugh!

Speaking of "the kind of man Obama really is," here is a very chilling report from Investigating Obama: Is This Our "Generated Crisis" by the Soros/Obama/Pelosi Insurrection?

We have already seen the horrible and incredible damage Obama has done in less than 100 days in office. Can you imagine what will happen over the course of four years?

Can something be done?

Hopefully, Natural Born Citizen has shared a way out.

I can certainly understand his concluding points:

...as a Christian, I’m somewhat convinced this nation has been judged by the Almighty and his fury may be descending as we speak. Such fury appears to be in the form of Constitutional cancer. I have prayed over my continuing role in this battle and the answer to those prayers said I am done here. As a true believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, I place my faith not in any organized religion but in the words of the Lamb and the voice of God. Peace be with you.

Stimulating Washington's Gluttony

There must be many people out there, like myself, who are deeply upset and sad that Congress passed that awful Porkulus, Spendaholic StimuWASTE bill last night.

This morning, I read a great blog post over at Charlie LeHardy's blog - These Morally Hazardous Times,

Charlie wrote:

Giving Congress a blank check is like throwing red meat to sharks. Giving Congress a blank check and screaming Fire!, as President Obama has been doing, guarantees the worst sort of knee-jerk Congressional response: just throw money at everything and hope that something works.

The "change we need" turns out, unsurprisingly, to be more Washington gluttony at the expense of future generations of taxpayers.

One thing that I would add is the fact that it was RUSHED THROUGH - without giving any member of the House or Senate the change to read the entire thing! Who ever heard of such a thing as this??? CRAZY! UNETHICAL! DANGEROUS! JUST PLAN STUPID - AND EVIL!

So much for the "transparency" that Obama promised on the campaign trail. What about the "48 hours" for the public to see the legislation online before it's voted on and/or passed? Didn't happen. Last night, Sean Hannity had a video clip of Obama making such a claim back in late 2007. How many Obama broken promises does this make? I've lost count.

In Charlie's essay, he discusses "moral hazards." Congress is guilty of adding another one to the list:

Excerpt:

This week, Congress is itself engaging in a different sort of moral hazard — it has the power to waste other people's money with impunity. There is no down side for Congress because it will not have to pay the bill. You will. I will. Our children will. Senators and Congressmen have fully-funded pension plans. They will never experience the pain of unemployment, nor the weight of the huge debt they are putting on the shoulders of future taxpayers.

Rather than rushing to drown us in more debt, Congress would have done well to slow down and debate the causes of this recession, as well as actions that might actually move the American economy back into production. Instead, Democrats have dragged out the same bloated Christmas lists that they trot out every budget year, only this time, they have a green light from the White House to spend, spend, spend.

Though this historic bill is being called a "stimulus package," it has only managed to stimulate Washington's gluttony.

My comment at Charlie's blog:

When that last Democrat Senator cast the final 60th Senate vote for that awful StimuWASTE bill, I sat down and cried. In fact, I had been praying and crying most of the day. I didn't sleep well last night, either.

I really think that our nation is under condemnation. It is going to take some real suffering to get people back to God.

Those who have placed so much faith and hope in an ordinary man (who has supported a LOT of evil) are going to be sorely disappointed. Perhaps, it is when they finally realize their mistake, they will turn back (or, turn to Him for the first time in their lives) to Jesus Christ - the true Messiah, Savior and Lord of the universe.

I recently changed the heading of my blog to this:

Talk Wisdom's goal is to defend the tenets and values of Biblical Christian faith. We defend our Constitutional Republic and Charters of Freedom, especially when speaking out against destructive social and political issues. As followers of our Savior and Lord, we should boldly stand up for Jesus Christ in our present circumstances. He is our Savior, Lord, and King, and His love needs to be shed abroad in our hearts and in our world - now.

Those who voted for Obama and now regret their votes probably aren't ready to admit it yet. Some have publicly stated regret (like the mother of the USS Cole victim); but most are holding to a "wait and see" attitude right now.

Even Mike Huckabee, who didn't vote for Obama but was willing to give him a "chance" now states that he was wrong about giving Obama the benefit of the doubt.

Many pro-Obama supporters who came to my blog over the past year - while I tried to warn them of Obama's past and terribly evil intentions for our nation - hated me for sharing the truth about him. Some day, perhaps one or two will come back to my blog and admit that the dire warnings shared at Talk Wisdom (and at thousands of other conservative and/or Christian blogs) were correct about such warnings.

Sorry this comment is so long!

I will close with telling you that your post here has helped me - a lot. Thanks Charlie.

God bless you!

Sincerely and In Christ,
Christine

As Charlie had mentioned in his article, the fact that the burden of this monumental wasteful spending will be on the backs of future generations - makes it all the more appalling to me!

However, in the midst of all of this sadness, doom and gloom and fear for the future of our nation, Charlie shares what is most important (and this part is what helped me):

Quote:

Despite polls showing growing doubts among voters that Congress is taking the right approach with this historic spending bill, it will pass. This bill is a runaway freight train and can't be stopped by human intervention.

It's interesting to think about the moral challenges of modern government, with its god-like powers to create and spend money, push the economy this way or that, and affect the lives of us all by both direct and unintended consequences.

Modern government is a mine field of moral hazards, and while many of our leaders are men and women of good judgment and good heart, too many, clearly, have neither.

The Apostle Paul lived in a much worse time than this, when leaders in both government and the church sought to suppress the fledgling Christian faith that he was spreading throughout the Roman world. His remedy was prayer:

I urge you [Timothy], first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity. This is good and pleases God our Savior, who wants everyone to be saved and to understand the truth. — 1 Timothy 2:1-4, NLT

Paul's goal was two-fold: 1) that we should be allowed to live our lives in peace, free from interference by leaders of dubious judgment and moral character, and 2) that these leaders should come to understand the truth.

And what is that truth? Paul continues:

For there is only one God and one Mediator who can reconcile God and humanity — the man Christ Jesus. He gave his life to purchase freedom for everyone. This is the message God gave to the world at just the right time. — 1 Timothy 2:5-6, NLT

In other words, the greatest moral hazard we face is not that we will lose our jobs and be thrown out of our homes, but that we will fail to put ourselves under the redemptive grace of Jesus Christ, which Paul, the economist, says was purchased for us with something far more valuable than US dollars: the blood of Christ shed on the cross.

We only get to vote every few years, but we can pray every day. Pray and intercede for your neighbors and friends who can't find jobs. Pray and intercede for our leaders, that they might allow us to live our lives in peace, and that in this time of great unknowns they might humbly admit their ignorance and seek God's wisdom.

Times are tough, but God is still on his throne, still welcoming sinners into the grace of Jesus Christ. Like every time and every age, this is a time for prayer. /quote

Update 2/14/09 :

Here is another great article to read:

Joel Rosenberg's blog: BIBLE PROPHECY AND THE U.S. AND GLOBAL ECONOMIES: “It’s almost as if you can hear the ice cracking beneath our feet”

Tell Congress NO on StimuWASTE Plan!

Visit the U.S. National Debt Clock

From The Right Side of Life:

For those of you who are American citizens (especially those ex-pats living overseas that visit this site), now is the time to get your voice heard.

As I’ve documented here and here, the President’s stimulus plan as it stands right now is really nothing more than a boondoggle of government largesse and waste.

Think about it this way: if the typical contractor includes 10% of the project as waste and/or overruns, and let’s say that the final bill is $900 billion, that means at the very least there will be a bare minimum of $90 billion in waste, just off the top – and that assumes all the rest of the bill is legitimate!

Just say no. But, you have got to say no.

Consider this admonition from AmericasRight.com as well as these helpful links from InvestigatingObama:

Senators’ and representatives’ addressses, telephone and fax numbers, and email addresses

Additional contact information, including staff of Senate & House leaders’ staff

Here is a copy of an email that I have already sent to House Republican Leader, John Boehner:

Dear Congressman Boehner,

I am writing today to urge you and ALL REPUBLICANS TO NOT VOTE for the president's stimulus bill. From what I have heard and read about the bill, it is really nothing more than a boondoggle of government largess and waste. Think about it this way: if the typical contractor includes 10% of the project as waste and/or overruns, and let’s say that the final bill is $900 billion, that means at the very least there will be a bare minimum of $90 billion in waste, just off the top – and that assumes all the rest of the bill is legitimate!

Also, I DO NOT WANT ANY OF MY TAX DOLLARS TO GO to help organizations like ACORN. Just what we need - giving $4 billion more dollars to ACORN canvassers passing out cigarettes on the street corner in exchange for votes. Notice I didn’t say REGISTRATION, I said VOTES. I still recall that video of the ACORN representative telling a man in Ohio to vote for Obama.

Please, please PLEASE!! I am BEGGING YOU NOT TO VOTE FOR THIS! It will further increase our current ten trillion dollar deficit which would be placed on the backs of our children and grandchildren!! DO NOT DO THIS TO THEM!!

Please convince every Republican NOT TO VOTE FOR THIS AWFUL BILL! Please try to convince any Democrat that knows in his/her heart that this bill is TOTALLY WASTEFUL - NOT TO VOTE FOR IT!!

Sincerely,
Christinewjc

Hat tips -

The Right Side of Life for both the information I used in my email and the links. Also, thanks to commenter "Carol" for the ACORN information I included in that email.

The Black Sphere: Obamas Bailout Plan - Pork-a-Palooza


Michelle Malkin: Stop Thief! Kill the bill, melt the phones!

Excerpt:

Translation: They can’t spend the stimulus money fast enough to actually stimulate anything other than campaign coffers, media buzz, and bureaucratic paperwork. President Obama asserted that there is no disagreement on the need to Do Something. He’s wrong. Two hundred economists spoke up this week in an open letter disseminated by the libertarian Cato Institute: “More government spending by Hoover and Roosevelt did not pull the United States economy out of the Great Depression in the 1930s,” they said. “More government spending did not solve Japan’s ‘lost decade’ in the 1990s. As such, it is a triumph of hope over experience to believe that more government spending will help the U.S. today.”

And that must be the message of gimlet-eyed fiscal conservatives in Washington who should wear the “obstructionist” badge proudly. Obstructionism in the name of fiscal sanity is no vice. Panicked profligacy in the name of blind bipartisanship is no virtue.
