Has America Become a Huge Duck Pond?

4063629885?profile=originalDr Wayne Dyer describes people as eagles and ducks.


With a majority of Americans voting to give the undeserving Obama a second term, I felt like the odd-man-out voting against him. It occurred to me that I have a history of being odd-man-out, not in sync with the thinking of my family and friends.


When I was in junior high school, my dad acknowledged my artistic talent and encouraged me to pursue a career in that field. Dad said, “You could be a great black artist someday.” While I appreciated Dad's support, I thought, “ Why can't I simply be a great artist? Why must my success be limited to the black world?”


Admittedly, I probably misinterpreted the meaning of Dad's statement. The reason is because my family and friends appeared to view the world through a narrow black lens, limiting blacks to certain tastes and behaviors. I was criticized and looked at suspect for enjoying music beyond R&B, black Gospel and Jazz. I have always dealt with people as individuals. Thus, I was criticized for having “too many white friends”. Early on, I viewed the world as my oyster, eager to explore life beyond the American “black experience”.


Though they love me, family and friends have been furious with me on numerous occasions over the years for not participating in their group think or indulging in unauthorized black behavior.


Rejecting Barack Obama is my latest offense. Not only did I reject the first black president, family and friends found it incomprehensible that I chaired a PAC against him.

So, why have I never quite fit in with my family and friends? Why have I suffered their rebuke all these years? Finally, I understand. They are ducks. I am an eagle.


Obama's reelection has concerned eagles concluding that America has become a huge duck pond. In Obama's duck pond, high flying independent self-reliant eagles are mandated to have their wings clipped, limiting their ability to fly to hovering slightly above the pond. This will not enhance the life of one duck other than appeasing their envy of the eagle's “unfair” ability to fly high.


When Obama touts hard work, he is really only talking to eagles. Ducks are encouraged to chill-out and rely on government. Eagles are ordered to deliver most of what they gather to government Lilly pads to be redistributed. Ducks simply waddle or float to the nearest Lilly pad to receive freebies delivered via the hard work, sweat and risks of eagles. Free duck-phones are a huge hit.


In Obama's new duck pond America, high minded eagle ideas such as personal responsibility and ambition to build a better life for ones self and their family are criminalized. Obama's vision is no duck having more than another sharing equally for the good of the pond.


To the horror of us eagles, a majority of Americans are ignorant naïve ducks who believe Obama's vision will ensure prosperity for all floating around the pond. Dear Lord help us, please!


There is a reason why the Bald Eagle was chosen to symbolize America. It is a bird of great vision and resilience which refuses to be controlled or contained. Its rights and desire to be free are gifted by God.


Eagles simply can not and will not allow Obama's duck pond to become the permanent new standard of what it means to be an American. Despite the decree of the Imperial Ruler of the pond, eagles will stealthily conceive new ways to regrow their wings to fly high, soaring higher than ever before. Such is the spirit and nature of the American eagle.


Unquestionably, Obama's reelection is a monumental devastating defeat of us eagles. Currently in America, ducks rule!


Eagles across America have already begun to regroup, plan new strategies and ways to educate a nation now dominated by clueless ducks.


For ever long as it takes, American eagles will not give up or surrender until a majority of Obama ducks are defeated or miraculously transformed into eagles. Eagles will not rest until Obama's duck pond America is restored back to its divinely ordained role as the largest greatest eagle's nest on the planet.

Obamas Israel Policy Tells Them To Duck & Cover

Embedded image permalink

 
 
This is a picture of an Israeli home in Gaza recently destroyed by a rocket. While urban crime is bad in America, none of us live under daily threat of airborne attack.
 
We'd have to reach back in our national memory to World War II or even the Cold War for a frame of reference.
Israel is ramping up a military response to this latest round of ongoing aggression. Observers wonder whether the Obama administration will help or continue allowing daylight ( read: appeasement ) to encourage Islamist hatred.
 
The Middle East's lone democracy earned our friendship a million times over. Despite this, Obama continues mistreating Prime Minister Netanyahu like a leper.
 
Back channel negotiations with worse than street thugs ( Iran ) seems the presidents sole concern. Perhaps an Oval Office chat with survivors of rocket attacks and homicide bombings in shopping centers would open his eyes?  
 

He sits safety in the White House while Israelis fear when the next projectile will kill them- Imagine the terror of unexpected death from the sky at any moment? 

 
Were Americans living on such a bulls eye, would we appreciate a policy of daylight and hand holding with our enemies?
 
Israels tormentors are using Obama's first term daylight doctrine as license to continue their pogrom against innocent civilians.
 
One wonders if this second term will amount to more than figuratively telling Israelis to duck and cover?
 
How about helping Israel make her attackers duck and cover instead?

Obamas Economic Patriotism Equals "Take-From-Me-Tism"


President Obama recently called for "economic patriotism"

Burglar : Robber hiding under a white wall Stock Photo

 

"Take=From-Me-tism" is more like it, as our picture illustrates.

 
Thus far his "economic patriotism" has detonated " layoff bombs " with more to come as employers fire people whose government mandated health insurance they can't afford to pay.
 
This unaffordability also hits individuals, sadly the same working class it's advertised to assist. Failure to enroll ( your body into government health care! ) means low income Americans will pay a $95 penalty in 2014; $325 in 2015 and $695 in 2016.
 
In 2016, families who don't enroll, earning less than $110,000 ( most Obama's Black turn out ), will be fined $2,085,
 
The sad reality is he creates yet another class of "criminal" from those least able to bear extra financial burden.
 
When he says, " economic patriotism" that equals "take-from-me-tism"  in my mind.

PUSH POLLS

One of the tactics the liberals used to get out their vote is a two step process using push polls. It works like this: first they have a pollster call, asking for your valuable opinions on a variety of generic political topics. The final question is “how likely are you to vote in the upcoming election?” They mine the list of likely voters for those they can sway to their candidates. They also determine what kind of lies and propaganda they need to move people to vote, based on the answers they gave in the earlier poll.
Next comes the push poll. This is not a real poll; it’s a propaganda interview intended to force an opinion on you after directly feeding you misinformation. For example, they will state that all of the noteworthy environmental groups oppose the Keystone Pipeline because of the devastating damage it will do to the environment. Then they state that Romney supports this project since it will make the oil companies wealthier. Then they ask if you support the pipeline.
Another question will be about abortion. It will be phrased in a way that they can state that Romney and the Republicans want to prevent women from having access to birth control and control of their own bodies. The questions are always preceded with lies and misinformation!
These tactics work on uninformed voters; they proved it in the last election.

I am a proud American who honorably served his country unselfishly for twenty years as a Marine Corps Mustang Officer, like many before and after me. 

I am also proud to say that I come from a long line of Veterans: my two eldest sons honorably served their country as Marines. My eldest son participated in the first Gulf War as a Marine and Iraqi Freedom as a weekend warrior with the Air National Guard, which he continues to be a member of, along with being a full-time Combat Air Traffic Control Instructor. Four out of my six male siblings honorably served their country and my father was a WWII Veteran who survived the Battle of the Bulge, but lost the battle with his severe PTSD symptoms/condition at the young age of fifty-nine. I served my tenure in the Marine Corps during the entire Vietnam War and lost many a friend during that war that fought and made the ultimate sacrifice to uphold and defend those freedoms that are provided us under our “Constitution” and “Bill of Rights”, which sadly too many Americans take for granted. 

I have to admit that I tend to get extremely concerned when I see politicians and others, regardless of their political affiliation, sex, race, color (in the Marine Corps we were all green), creed, ethnic/national origin or religion, doing things and/or taking actions that I see as a threat to: 1) those freedoms and/or rights provided each of us under our “Constitution” and “Bill of Rights”; and 2) the safety, security or welfare of our Veterans, active duty members and their dependents and/or survivors. 

We Americans, all of us, owe a debt to the American who came before us, and by their military service, in which all gave some and some gave all, preserved freedom for us. We repay that debt to those Americans who came before us by our willingness serve and sacrifice as they did to preserve freedom for those Americans who will come after us. 

May God bless and keep each and every American that has made the ultimate sacrifice for this great country of ours.

May God also bless and keep all our veterans and active duty members and their families on this day and always.

And may Americans never cease to remember them, and their sacrifice, for our freedom.

Truth takes courage

Doesn't matter what the press says. Doesn't matter what the politicians or the

mobs say. Doesn't matter if the whole country decides that something wrong is

something right. This nation was founded on one principle above all else:

The requirement that we stand up for what we believe, no matter the odds or

the consequences. When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move,

your job is to plant yourself like a tree next to the River of Truth, and

tell the whole world, "NO, YOU MOVE."

Fiscal Cliff

Entitlement Cliff’ Threatens America

Much has been said about the “fiscal cliff” coming at the end of the year, when tax cuts are set to expire and automatic spending cuts begin, but that “pales in comparison” to the “entitlement cliff” looming for the country in coming years, a new report warns.

Entitlement spending is already so high that the cost of all entitlement programs plus interest on the debt is nearly equal to total federal revenue. That means virtually everything else the government does is being paid for with borrowed money, the report from the Institute for Policy Innovation discloses.

Entitlements include Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and means-tested welfare programs, plus veteran benefits, unemployment pay, disability pay, and more.

A number of these programs have grown substantially since President Obama took office. Medicaid has grown from 46.9 recipients to 56 million, disability beneficiaries have increased from 7.5 million to 8.8 million, and the food stamp program has grown from 32 million beneficiaries to 47 million.

All told, more than 120 million Americans receive entitlements of some kind, according to the Institute, a Texas-based think tank. Add to that an estimated 16 million new Medicaid beneficiaries resulting from Obamacare, and some 18 million people who enter the health insurance exchanges beginning in 2014.

The bottom line: For fiscal 2012, the federal government spent about $2.2 trillion of its $3.7 trillion budget on entitlement programs, while gross annual revenues stood at $2.6 trillion. Add interest on the federal debt of $220 billion to the entitlement payout, and that leaves less than $200 billion to pay for everything else, including defense, transportation, education, and homeland security. So the government makes up the shortfall by borrowing, or printing, money.

The problem will only get worse in coming years. Since 1980, Medicare and Medicaid have grown at more than 9 percent annually, and an estimated 77 million baby boomers are beginning to retire and collect Social Security.

At the same time, the pool of workers who pay for these programs is not growing. The Tax Policy Center reports that only 53 percent of households now pay both income and payroll taxes.

The Institute observes: “Attempting to collect enough money to sustain this level of entitlement spending will only result in a reduction in work effort, reduced employment opportunities, and more people moving onto entitlements.”

The Institute offers several steps necessary to deal with the growing entitlement problem. One way is to reform entitlements into real safety-net programs that help those most in need and don’t encourage continued reliance on welfare.

Another is to encourage economic growth by lowering personal and corporate income tax rates while eliminating loopholes, and lowering taxes on investment income.

Also, several programs could be transitioned into prefunded personal accounts.

The Institute’s conclusion: “Any solution that maintains the current defined-benefit structure — unless it is for a small number of the poorest Americans — is only postponing the inevitable financial day of reckoning.”

Veterans Day

Yesterday as Kattie and I took a walk, we seen people proudly placing American flags around their yard honoring all of those who fought and died defending our freedom. Veterans day honors those who fought heroically defending Freedom and life. They risked the ultimate making sure that we don't fall to socialism, communism and tyranny.

A lot of people sensed that our country changed after 9/11, but this change began long before that terrible day in our history. In 1959 Nikita Khrushchev stated that Americans are so gullible and one day we would live under communism. He went on to say that Americans would not accept communism out right, but they would keep feeding it to us in small doses and one day we would wake up and find ourselves in communism.

Ronald Reagan said, "Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same."

Khrushchev's words have come back to haunt our lives, as somewhere along the way we fell into slumber and woke up to the realization of the haunting words from both of the men above. We let it slip by and we winked at the slow and methodical changes taking place in Government that we did not want or agree to, but it was injected in small amounts into the very veins of this country until it grew into a large cancerous tumor that we now face.

The main reason we are in this fix now is we turned our backs on the very God who gave us this wonderful land. We have lost his hand of protection and his blessing he bestowed on us, because this nation went and put their Bibles away and stayed home for Sunday night football. A great American said," The cold wind we felt last Tuesday was the protective hand of God being lifted off this great nation." This is so true.

We can save this nation, but now we face a monumental task ahead of us. We can change the minds and hearts one by one as the socialist and communist did over the decades, but we have to get active and stay active in this Grassroots orginazation and hope it doesn't bring us back to civil war to root out the cancer that slowly grew on this nation, because that is a very possible reality if we don't take this seriously.

Voter fraud

All , the author of the article Dee posted is asking for Patriots in the states involved to step up and initate action. It appears that those of us who do not live in those states cannot take action. At least not at the state level. If any of you are in one of those states , please, step up to the plate. Time to go work, time for action.

The King Has No Cloths

I cast my first vote for President of the United States in 1964 for Barry Goldwater. I remember working very hard including selling six packs of AuH2O as a fundraiser. I was at the same time curious why the tepid support of the GOP hierarchy and almost no defense of their candidate from the near hysteria of the Democrat Socialist party. I later came to understand that the GOP itself had been infiltrated with the same progressive mindset as the Democrat Socialist party.

 

          Since that time there has been only one person I could be proud to pull the lever for and thrust my proud to be an American chest out. That was of course Ronald Regan and even he was subjected to the same tepid GOP support and near hysteria but through his strength of will alone managed to push all this aside and define a winning conservative agenda.

 

          During the Republican primaries, Romney and the RNC went to no limits to stifle any apparent conservative voices and during the RNC convention, the glaring absence of Sarah Palin was breath taking in overt spinelessness.

 

As to the 2012 general election, I was screaming at the political cowardice of Governor Romney who had opportunity after another again and again to put this Socialist movement into the dust bins of history but he (and I am presuming with the assurances of the RNC) wanted to “Play it Safe”.  I am now disgusted with all of, and anything to do with, the Regressive party and as a result I am switching my political affiliation to Independent and when and if the Tea Party ever gets it’s act together, The GOP will go the way of the Wigs.

 

Now we have abandoned all that was good about America and are on a one way ticket to Hell. Now is the time for me to get off this Republican Progressive (RE-Gressive) train.

 

This letter may or may not make it to your desk and you may or may not choose to reply, but I am by no means at the end of the line with this. My mission now is to defend my family, my home and my country from the results of so many years (at least 100 to my count) of progressive and regressive government. I know I am not alone here. My mission now is to find the others and swarm all over the thugs and cowards who now rule. It is too obvious…..

Alabama Joins Texas and Louisiana

There is a petition for the State of Alabama to secede from the Union.  Our grievances are these:


1) The Federal Government has refused to secure the country's southern border with Mexico.  Many illegal immigrants have come to Alabama causing a great burden on our welfare system that is forced upon the state by the Federal Government.

2) The President has ignored the limits placed on his office by the Constitution of the United States of America and Congress has failed to take action against him.

3) The Affordable Health Care Act (a.k.a. Obamacare) has an individual mandate that the President and the Democrat Party says is not a tax.  This makes this provision of Obamacare unconstitutional and further makes the entire bill unconstitutional.  Yet the Supreme Court upheld the individual mandate calling it a tax and saying Congress has the power to levy taxes.

4) During Congressional debates over Obamacare, polls said and many Americans wrote expressing that they did not want this bill to be passed.  Congress ignored the will of the people and passed it anyway.
