ACTION

Rick Santorum

Imagine a super-smart; super strong every man; war hero; former police commissioner; who topped it all off by becoming president of the United States!!

Definitely Superman, right? Nope

 

Batman? Gotta be Batman? Not even!

.

Teddy Roosevelt holds this distinction of being a larger-than-life example of what America can really produce!

President Roosevelt reminds us how using our nation's super principles can produce results just as miraculous as those of fictional super heroes.

 

Our values produce real life super heroes of every size, shape and color. This universal wealth is what allows Americans  to triumph.

 

As two political parties peacefully ( for the most part lol ) battle for the White House during a really bad economy it's worth remembering that America, for all her faults, is still a super hero nation!

 

Have you found your "super " today?

OBAMA SIGNED AWAY YOUR PROPERTY AND EVERYTHING YOU HAVE!!! HITLER HAS FINALLY ROSE HIS HEAD AND HIS NAME IS BARRAK O’SCUMA!!! http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2012-03-22/pdf/2012-7019.pdf

URGENT: A few days ago we sent you a warning about a secret plan Obama and his one-world comrades are cooking up. Obama, “America’s Fraud President” is still planning the overthrow of all we hold dear, all that is constitutionally sacred and all that we believe in. How can this be?

Obama is about to order the execution of his Executive Order 13603. This is not an “if” but a “WHEN”!

Executive Order 13603 was recently uncovered

by the Tea Party Research Team—it’s one of those stealth maneuvers America’s Fraud President likes to pull as he pulls the wool over the eyes of innocent Americans.

We know that we stumbled upon what was supposed to be a big secret—a real hush-hush move made by O’Scuma. It is our duty as Americans to expose his malevolent agenda to you and to all Americans.

Let me tell you: if you thought that voting God out of the Demoncrat Party was wicked, wait till you hear this.

The Tea Party reported to you a few weeks ago that on March 16, 2012 Obama (America’s Fraud President) wrote and signed Executive Order 13603 naming it: “National Defense Resources Preparedness,” and while a few conservative media outlets wrote a handful of stories about this outrageous Executive Order, the interest died out.

The pieces of the Obama puzzle are falling into place and his sinister plan is emerging clearer than ever: Use of weapons of mass destruction on Americans!

Through Executive Order 13603 Obama gave himself the power to control all vital aspects of our beloved nation.

The more the Tea Party Research team digs, the more we discover about the execution of Obama’s America-killing plan as it unfolds—and it is HORRIBLE. Beyond the worst you can imagine.

Take a look at some of the sinister and menacing forces that will be put into motion. They are weapons of mass destruction!

Seizing of all forms of civil transportation

Do you realize what this means? Obama specially wrote “civil” NOT “public” transportation. In the name of a national emergency (which Obama has yet to define which, in turn, means he can define it any way he wants) he can grab ALL forms of transportation civilians use, including:

Automobiles, trucks and delivery vehicles

Boats and ships

Your cars, your children’s cars and even grandma’s car

City buses

Trains

Airplanes

Motorcycles

Bicycles

Scooters, skateboards and wagons

Horse and buggies

Snowmobiles

Tractors (Yes, some people drive to town on tractors)

A secret plan went into action right under our noses a few months ago—the very plan the Blame Stream Media deliberately hid from the American people.

Obama forgot to tell you that he can grab ALL FORMS OF CIVIL TRANSPORTATION, didn’t he? How convenient to keep the good citizens of America in the dark.

But it doesn’t stop there.

While other groups are asleep at the wheel and playing politics your Tea Party has been at work exposing the rat in the White House.

Obama doesn’t stop at just grabbing transportation but will grab the food out of your mouth. He will also grab”

All commodities and products capable of being ingested by either human beings or animals. In other words all food products, growing, picked and in store, including:

Farm crops

Inventory in grocery stores

Grandmas garden vegetables

Your canned goods

Dog food and livestock feed

Survival food cache

Fish from fish farms

Fruit from orchards

The lame stream media not only turned a blind eye to Obama’s evil deeds but has refused to comment on the Obama grab when presented with the facts! The Main Blame media is NOT your friend.

Ready for more?

Health resources, which include, but are not limited to: drugs, biological products, medical devices, materials, facilities, health supplies, services and equipment. This includes:

Hospitals

Vitamin stores

Wheel chair suppliers

Oxygen providers

Drug stores

First Aid supplies

Red Cross

Medical insurance companies

And the savage takeover of America doesn’t end there. Obama gives the power to government to take over…

All forms of energy:

Solar energy farms

Wind turbine projects

Niagara Falls electric plant

Your home generator

Hydro-electric dams

City power plants

All usable water from all sources:

Mississippi River The Great Lakes

Colorado River and all rivers

All ponds

All wells

All water sheds

All snow melts

All bottled water companies

Yep, COMPLETE GOVERNMENT CONTROL OF IT ALL!!!! If this does not frighten you out of your wits, I don’t know what will.

The Tea Party Research Team is discovering more everyday about “America’s Fraud President.”

Sound impossible? If you don’t believe what we are saying then look up Executive Order 13603 yourself. I assure you this one thing: you will be shocked and frightened beyond anything you have ever known.

I can also tell you this: the Tea Party has been examining the Obama records from day one. Why? Because it has been proven time after time Obama is a liar and cheat. This is why he has earned the name “America’s Fraud President.”

He has lied to the American people about his college transcripts, his law license, his birth certificate and his master piece ObamaCare and ObamaTax.

If you have not seen it yet I strongly urge you to go see the documentary, 2016. You will be shocked and appalled at what you learn. You will be shocked at how Obama’s ideologies were formed and by what his true plan is for subverting our country.

I guarantee you that by the end of the film, the entire puzzle will come together and you will see why we have been screaming FRAUD all along.

The big picture will come completely into focus.

And, you will see that the Tea Party is gravely alarmed with very good reason—and understand why you should be, too.

Executive Order 13603 is another piece to the puzzle that brings together Obama’s evil master plan.

How can you help? Donate now to help us spread the word far and wide about the atrocities being committed—and those being set in motion—by America’s Fraud President.

You might ask: now how could he pull this off? I’ll tell you exactly how.

When Obama is defeated on the night of November 6, 2012 he will remain president until Romney is sworn in on January 20, 2013. That gives Obama over 74 days to do anything he can to finish his socialist agenda and possibly hurl America into such a deep, dark abyss that we may never recover!

Here’s what’s even more frightening:

Obama could grab America before the end of the elections!

How do we know this? Read the analysis yourself.

Why is Obama not worried about winning the election?

Obama is going to sledgehammer Executive Order 13603 into America no matter what the outcome of the elections may be.

He has already demonstrated he will write any executive order, take any action and lie any way he can to complete his master agenda: the total and complete conversion of our Free-Enterprise Republic into a government-controlled socialist regime.

Obama, with great glee, signed on March 16, 2012, his Executive Order 13603 redefining and creating new policy about America’s National Defense.

Obama’s Executive order 13603 is “National Defense Resources Preparedness.”

Mr. Obama – YOU SHALL FAIL!!!! We will NOT let you take America to her knees.

The Tea Party has risen to prevent your re-election.

The day of big government will come to an end. The bailouts will stop and the grab for America will fail. We The People will not stand by and watch our beloved nation be turned into a socialist state run by global communists.

We stand here and say: We are mad as hell and we are not going to take it anymore!

ATTENTION ALL TEA PARTY MEMBERS: Don’t forget the…..

The Tea Party shall not elect any group who:

Fires God

Votes to turn their back on Israel

Demands higher taxes

Bails out Wall Street

Forces ObamaCare/ObamaTax down the throats of America

Tries to turn our free-enterprise republic into a government run communist state

Hey Barack! George W. Bush did something you can’t: He held America together on September 11th and paved the way for Seal Team 6 to kill Osama bin Laden.

Are you starting to get the picture?

Do you think Obama would have issued this type of executive order if he thought he would be replaced by Romney or some other non-donkey party candidate?

What does Obama know that we don’t?

Now do you understand why Obama and his minions MUST be defeated this coming November–and Congress must immediately act to impeach him so he cannot call up any emergency in his remaining 74 days in office?

The Tea Party is comprised of all races, religions, all walks of life, retired, unemployed and over-employed, a true cross-cut of America and we are tens of millions strong.

With our Tea Party power we must use our political muscle. We MUST deliver the KNOCKOUT BLOW to Obama.

Listen Up: The Tea Party has America’s back!

It is time to get off the couch and support our efforts to expose the rat in the White House…and I mean now. Obama, “America’s Fraud President” is growing more dangerous by the day.

Please Donate Now to help us get the word out…help us make those MILLION PLUS phone calls to expose America’s Fraud President and all his latest frauds like Executive Order 13603.

With less than 10 weeks to the election we HAVE to bring people up-to-date on the latest findings on this deadly executive order along with his fraudulent birth records.

In case you missed it, we now have evidence, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that Obama is America’s Fraud President. For starters, he presented a FORGED COPY OF HIS BIRTH CERTIFICATE to the American public. He’s hiding something huge.

The evidence is as clear as day. Won’t you please help us? Stand up and take aim. The only way we are going to defeat his sinister plan is to stand up and fight it every step of the way.

Are you with me? Can we count on you?

Please say YES and DONATE TODAY to help us keep going with our campaign to EXPOSE AMERICA’S FRAUD PRESIDENT and take out this imminent and deadly threat.

You are the hope for America. When the chips are down the American people come through every time. Many recognize the internal destruction causing havoc in America but feel powerless and don’t know what to do next.

Our Rebuild America Defeat Obama Tour rally in Mount Pleasant, MI was held in a charming throwback hall. Mirrors covered the walls. Decorative small light bulbs wrapped the columns and strategic spots around the room creating a warm friendly setting. To my surprise among the sea of patriots, I noticed “Obama/Biden” signs held above the crowd in back of the room.

A day or so before, in Grand Blanc, MI we encountered obnoxious protesters, half of which were black. The black Obama zombies called me a traitor to my race and other assorted insults. I was aggressive and confronted the brain-dead racists head on.

So, when I saw the Obama protesters displaying their signs in back of the room, I wanted to verbally attack them from the stage. But, a still, small voice inside of me said, “Don't do that. Simply tell your story.”

I shared with the audience my family's history of government dependency and the devastating negative effect cradle to grave welfare had on many of my relatives. In 1956, my black dad broke the color barrier and became a Baltimore City firefighter. This afforded my family funds to move out of the projects and off of the government system.

Unfortunately, many of my cousins/relatives stayed on government welfare their entire lives and it destroyed them.

Throughout my speech and during the speeches of other speakers at our rally, to my amazement I saw the Obama protesters applauding along with our audience.

The grand finale of our rallies is a military tribute which blew away the Obama supporters. They rose to their feet applauding along with our enthusiastic patriotic audience.

Now, I am not saying the Obama supporters were converted to Romney/Ryan supporters. I am confident that they heard indisputable truths and felt inspiration and love for the greatest nation on the planet.

Donald, a member of our team said he noticed that everyone at our rally was polite and non-confrontational with the Obama supporters. Had the situation been reversed, Romney/Ryan supporters showing up waving signs at an Obama rally, unquestionably the Romney protesters would have been putting themselves at great risk of physical harm.

The mainstream media despicably continues to lie attempting to portray us as violent racist haters. With over 300 tea party rallies nationwide under my belt, I can testify that we tea party folks are extremely peaceful patriots who love God, family and country.

In short, we are the good guys. I am confident the good guys will win in November.

Through all the rhetoric and rumor and posting one thing must be retained by every human being on this planet.  This "unfortunate truth" is undeniable.  It has been proven out over the past four years again and again.  That truth is, "if Barak Obama and the current make up of the United States Congress remains in power for another term Freedom worldwide will cease to exist and there will be wars never before seen on earth".  This election will not solve all the problems but it will buy civilized people a little more time to defeat the evil we have allowed to enter our home.  If you are one who believes in God and values morality and Freedom.
You will vote Obama and most Democrats out of office until both parties can offer Honorable alternatives and we can change the way our elected people are allowed to behave.  The American people must get in control of their government for the world's sake.  We must not be the ones who let the beacon go out!

I have recently been engaged in running dialogue with several “useful idiots” over Mitt Romney’s recent speech at the Al Smith Dinner. And the disconnect displayed by several respondents to 1 simple statement I made that: “THIS is how an AMERICAN PRESIDENT ACTS!” has been if anything; enlightening to the mindset of these individuals. The first comment I received was the following:

IT WAS WRITTEN FOR HIM, FAGGOT.

Zhadeix in reply to Keith Westbrook 1 day ago

And the descent into discourse continued at an accelerated rate from all sides with my help. The fact that my comment was based on the closing statement that Mr. Romney made was inconsequential to the discussion and completely missed by the zealous left. And my response was less than cordial from that moment on.

I have for many months now into several years studied the “progressive/socialist” movement in this Country and written about it on numerous occasions. I have included in those dissertations, THOUSANDS of fact- checked reference's verifying the information contained within. And throughout it all one glaring fact based truth is undeniably evident: NO GOOD HAS EVER COME FROM IT!

It is from a position of indifferent arrogance that the progressive socialist movement has not only stayed alive but prospered within academia and government in this Nation. The “intellectual elite” are entrenched in the belief that they, because of their devotion to so-called intellectual self-enlightenment are entitled to the greatest share of wealth and control over the rest of the populace. They along with progressive/liberal politicians have created the largest socialism indoctrination system outside the former Soviet Union and modern China. We now have multiple generations of Americans who have no perception of anything in the way of information that is not spoon fed to them by the media. It is structured propaganda that the progressive movement created and I will prove it:

And the indoctrination is even more self evident in the following response:

And as with the former Soviet Union and in China today as well as Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea and others, controlling the media narrative is imperative to controlling the population at large. If not for the 1st. Amendment where would this Republic be right now? Yet we have entire groups of “useful idiots” that side with a complete lie fabricated to hide the failing policies of this administration. We have an entire media that except for the unwilling act of occasional journalism, has become the incestuous bedmate of progressive socialism, failing to see that throughout history the socialist govt. once empowered KILLED every teacher, journalist and elected official that they perceived a threat. The most recent example was the reign of terror by Pol Pot.

This has been in the making in America for 100 years now, starting with the Woodrow Wilson Administration and the first foray of the academic elite entering politics. His progressive policies were responsible for the largest growth of the government since the Civil War and reconstruction periods and created everything from the Federal Reserve to Income Tax. Under his administration with the help of a Democratically controlled House the federal govt. grew by 250% and also helped create legislation opening the door for union activism to proliferate without oversight.

The push back on progressivism by the massive over intrusion by Wilson’s Administration led to many years where the title of progressive was deemed an insult, mostly because of his views of the Founding Fathers and his desire to end the govt. that the Constitution of the United States formed, in favor of a more Parliamentarian style of govt..

The one thing that these progressive socialist’s realized was to affect change they had to change the perception of an entire Nation, and the best way, was to start early and work slowly through indoctrination methods. During Wilson’s administration he set in motion legislation that would fund schools, that started the erosion of state and local responsibility for education, which allowed for the federal govt. and not local school boards to set standards dictating curriculum.

And every 20 years or so from this administration forward we have had revisits to progressive socialism:

Franklin Delano Roosevelt: Roosevelt expansion of the federal govt. by any means necessary includes passing a record 3728 executive orders or almost 1 a day for 12 years! It was called the “New Deal” for a reason

Lyndon B. Johnson: a life long politician and political insider whose “Great Society” legislation has led to 47 years of constant federal govt. expansion at the cost of states rights. Historians argue that Johnson's presidency marked the peak of modern liberalism in the United States after the New Deal era.

Jimmy Carter: During Carter's term as President, two new cabinet-level departments were created: the Department of Energy and the Department of Education.

William Jefferson Clinton: During his presidency, Clinton advocated for a wide variety of legislation and programs, much of which was enacted into law or was implemented by the executive branch. Some of his policies, such as the North American Free Trade Agreement and welfare reform, have been attributed to a centrist Third Way philosophy of governance, while on other issues his stance was left-of-center

Barack Hussein Obama: He is the first POTUS since Wilson to come from Academia with no other real background outside of instutionalized education, except for a brief stint in the Illinois state govt. and then 2 years as a Senator.

All of these individuals were all deemed by the media of their day as “intellectual elites”, including Clinton being a “Rhodes” scholar. All have presided over the greatest loss of individual freedoms in the name of the “common good” than all of the previous administrations COMBINED!

All have been the darlings of their bed fellows the media, which when the Constitution was written granting them the powers of the 4th estate, it was as a watchdog against the very actions that they now defend or try to obfuscate from the American people. But this relationship has only existed when it is a Democrat Administration.

I am old enough to remember quite accurately the media’s relentless pursuit of Nixon on Watergate and his involvement which led to his resignation. Their pursuit of Reagan in the Iran Contra Affair and the prosecution of Col. Oliver North. The relentless media attacks of every Republican administration for the last 100 years as compared to the media’s handling of Democrat administrations has been shameful. From Hoover-villes to the “New Deal” from the “great society” to Nixon's war( Vietnam which was escalated by Johnson) and on and on it has become an exercise in futility to expect anyone in America, exposed to their diatribe, to remain anything but indoctrinated to their propaganda.

All of these media elites were educated and indoctrinated into this movement in the Academic environment. They now carry forward the “progressive socialist” message and agenda driving the narrative, instead of observing and reporting on it.

Progressive socialism is a cancer, it kills everything it infects, and like cancer it slowly destroys the body whole, until only radical treatment can have a chance of saving the patient. In any life threatening situation there is always an acceptable loss of tissue to justify saving a life. We have now reached that point in America’s future health, we must now cut the disease from the body to save the body whole.

America is finally awakening from her long sleep and the media is now more despised than unions. But we must continue to remove them further from infecting our Country.If we stopped supporting any company that supports any newspaper and all of the alphabet networks we could choke them to death from lack of funding. End their revenue resources and we end them. I have personally boycotted all major products that advertise on any network or media outlet. I do not miss them and neither does my wallet.

We must continue to remove the federal influence of govt. from our local education. I am a firm supporter of oaths of office to be given to teachers and administrators, like my military and fiduciary oath. Until their loyalty to the children’s education supplants socialist dogma and union manipulation we are faced with an ever declining education system teaching more about non-American values and globalism than the fundamentals of the 3R’s and about this Great Nation’s history.

My readers know one of my favorite sayings is it is time to cull the herd, it is from the John Wayne movie McClintock when he describes the “poor specimen” that is the territorial governor. The ‘useful idiots” go ballistic when I use it and I love seeing their heads explode yet they are the ones advocating creation of a government that will have just that power through Obamacare. Their stupidity knows no bounds!

In Freedom,

Dr. Keith C. Westbrook Ph.D.                                                                                                                                    

So you want to bring UN troops on American soil to monitor our elections? Well I hope you are ready for the response they will get in every county in this nation. You will spend the rest of your life apologizing. Those who are not placed under citizen's arrest and put in county jail will likely go home in a body bag. Is this what you are hoping for, in case you did not know, it is
not legal for foreign troops to operate on US soil, even with your permission. Don't bother looking it up, it is the law because the American people will make it so. Just remember, Jackass, the people who make things happen in this country are against you and all your Islamic criminal friends. Every man who has ever fought for this country will be outraged by the sight of any foreign uniforms on American soil. That outrage will turn into rage and your UN friends will be in grave danger. Obama you need to pull your head out of your ass now and then, a little air might kick start that pea brain of yours. Then again, not!

At the end of September, Marita Noon and I began to expose the various failures of Obama’s green-energy expenditures (mainly from the trillion dollar, 2009-stimulus package where over $90 billion was earmarked for "green") –– projects and firms that have gone bankrupt (confirming 15 with more on our radar). A hot topic that became part of the first presidential debate where after President Obama pressed Mitt Romney for supporting tax cuts for oil companies, Romney reminded Obama that he put $90 billion into failing green companies like Solyndra, Fisker, Tesla, and Ener1. “I had friend who said you don’t just pick the winners and losers, you pick the losers,” Romney cleverly added.

We then we moved on to those that are functioning, but facing difficulties –– struggling either financially, while some environmentally, still others laying off workers, and quite a few on life support (approximately 20). 

Lastly, we addressed the "5 million green jobs that Candidate Obama had promised in 2008," of which Team Obama is now claiming victory, however, as we noted, the math doesn't add up, nor does the gimmick accounting –– recycled ones; those that already existed –– used by the Obama administration's Labor Department.

While in Marita's Townhall.com columns we placed an * after the project/company’s name to indicate a political connection (cronyism and corruption), in my subsequent blogs I expanded upon our efforts, and plugged in my research, listing those critical ties. 

In our three-part series, two focused directly on the failures, and our sums were 15 bankruptcies and 20 troubled (a total of 35 with over 65% having meaningful Democrat political connections –– bundlers, donors, supporters, etc). Yet, considering the rapid speed of these "green" bankruptcies and issues (about 10 that I read about just last week), I'm compiling new totals here, which will include a new and updated list by the Heritage Foundation dated October 18, 2012 –– President Obama’s Taxpayer-Backed Green Energy Failures –– with their total of 36 (updated later with a number of 34). And most listed at The Heritage and ours are very similar, however, they have some we don't and vise versa.

HF ADDITION: Satcon ($3 million) As reported by the Heritage Foundation October 18, 2012, "A solar company that got a multi-million-dollar grant from the Department of Energy earlier this year announced Wednesday that it will file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, making it the second taxpayer-backed green energy company to file for bankruptcy this week." 
22. HF ADDITION: Willard and Kelsey Solar Group ($700,981) ($6 million); in our unconfirmed bankrupt list

1. Fisker Automotive* –– $528.7 
2. Tesla Motors* –– $465 million 
3. AREVA acquired Ausra Inc.* –– $2 billion  
4. BrightSource Energy* –– $1.6 billion 
5. First Solar* –– $3 billion, plus suspicious Export-Import bank funding 
6. Nevada Geothermal* –– $78.8 million, plus $69 million in federal stimulus-funded grants
7. NextEra Energy Genesis Solar Project* –– $681.6 million
8. SunPower Corp.* (California Valley Solar Ranch project bought by NRG Energy*) –– $1.2 billion DOE loan guarantee
9. AltaRock* –– $6 million, $25 million, plus $1.45 million 
10. Bloom Energy* –– $5 million
11. CH2M Hill* –– $2 billion 
12. Chevy Volt* –– $151 million, $105 million, plus other stimulus funds HF ADDITION: GreenVolts ($500,000) - I'm assuming this is the Chevy Volt
13. ECOtality Inc.* –– $126.2 million  

14. Johnson Controls –– $299 million

15. Montana Alberta Tie Line –– $152 million of federal financing (some reports say $161 million) 
16. National Renewable Energy Lab* –– $200 million
17. Schneider Electric –– $86 million
18. Serious Material (Serious Energy)* –– $548,100   
19. Solar World Industries America –– $4.6 million  
20. ADDITION: Solar City* –– Got a $275 million conditional guarantee (DOE) that was later rejected. Besides some financial issues, Solar City was subpoenaed in July as part of a federal probe of the Treasury grant program. As reported by The Washington Free Beacon (October 18, 2012), SolarCity, is currently being audited by the Internal Revenue Service and investigated by the Treasury Department’s inspector general amid allegations that the firm misrepresented the value of its investment when applying for stimulus grants. So it looks like Solar City" has applied for approximately $325 million in these stimulus grants, according to the SEC filing." So, loan rejected, but the grant is larger (as are the political ties) –– we'll keep an eye on this story.
21. Solar World Industries America –– $4.6 million
22. HF ADDITION: Vestas ($50 million)
23. HF ADDITION: LG Chem’s subsidiary Compact Power ($151 million, part of the Recovery Act, and millions worth of special state tax breaks based on job creation of all things) LG Chem is another green company that President Obama touted during his visit at the LG Chem battery cell production site in 2010.  This is an amusing story that was recently brought to my attention –– according to Wood TV, Michigan (October 18, 2012), "Workers at LG Chem, a $300 million lithium-ion battery plant heavily funded by taxpayers, tell Target 8 that they have so little work to do that they spend hours playing cards and board games, reading magazines or watching movies." Now, their story (more scandalous than what I posted here) is under investigation by the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board –– an oversight agency for the federal stimulus program, what I call the RAT Board –– another huge part of this green corruption scandal.
24. HF ADDITION: Navistar ($10 million) 
25. HF ADDITION: Mascoma Corp.* ($100 million)

HERITAGE CORRECTION:

Figures for four companies have been updated: Beacon Power received $43 million from the U.S. government, not $69 million as originally reported. Azure Dynamics received $5.4 million from the federal government, not $120 million as originally reported. Compact Power Inc. received $151 million as part of the stimulus, not $150 million as originally reported. Willard and Kelsey Solar Group received $700,981 in government funding, not $6 million as originally reported.

The following companies have been removed from the original list: AES’s subsidiary Eastern Energy, LSP Energy and Uni-Solar did not receive government-backed loans, based on additional research. The National Renewable Energy Lab did received $200 million in stimulus funding, but it is a government laboratory.

NOTE: My blog reflects the Heritage "corrections," however, I kept in AES and the National Energy Lab –– and we initially had four unconfirmed bankruptcies:

• LSP Energy
• Mountain Plaza Inc.
• Olsen Crop Service/Olsen Mills
• Willard & Kelsey Solar Group

So far, at least $15 billion of "green" taxpayer money is either gone or still at risk, and the majority was funneled to Obama and Democrat cronies 

As you can see tracking President Obama's failed green-energy expenditures is like aiming at a moving target, and calculating the exact dollar amount is even more difficult to pinpoint. This is partly due the fact that companies/projects received multiple green government subsidies that weren't recorded or tracked properly (federal and state loans, grants and special tax credits, and from various programs and agencies). Also, some of these firms were given a loan guarantee, yet didn't have access to the entire amount,  prior to their bankruptcy.  However, as a ballpark figure, I'd say that at least $15 billion that we know of at this time. And here's why...

I had purposely listed the bankrupt and troubled from the Department of Energy's Loan Guarantee Program (DOE LGP) first. Since 2009, the DOE has guaranteed $34.7 billion – 46% through the 1705 ($16 billion of which 90% are politically connected), 30% through the 1703 ($10.3 billion—AREVA and Georgia Power), and 14% through the ATVM ($8.4 billion and 3 of the five loans are tied directly to Obama).

Marita and I covered eleven companies from the DOE LGP (Solyndra, Abound Solar, Beacon Power, Fisker Auto, Telsa Motors, AREVA, BrightSource Energy, First Solar, Nevada Geothermal, NextEra Energy's Genesis Solar Project, and SunPower/NRG Energy's California Valley Solar Ranch), noting that from that program alone, close to $10 billion of taxpayer money is already gone, while, as you can see, some is still at risk. What's interesting to note is that of the "26 loan guarantees under the 1705 program, of which the DOE doled out in excess of $16 billion, “23 of the loans were rated “Junk grade” due to their poor credit quality, while the other four were rated BBB, which is at the lowest end of the 'investment' grade of categories.”

Meaning that the DOE had already put the majority of that $16 billion into excessively risky investments. And to add insult to taxpayer injury, the driving force behind these decisions weren't based merit as the DOE would have you believe –– obviously it was cronyism and corruption. My April 2012 analysis of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform March 2012 report confirmed that over 90% have meaningful political ties to President Obama and high ranking Democrats, or both, which gives credence to Congressman Ryan's jab to the so-called "Stimulus Sheriff," Vice President Joe Biden during the VP debate, "$90 billion in green pork to campaign contributors and special interest groups." Ryan went on to call the Obama green-energy expenditures what it is, "crony capitalism and corporate welfare."

You’ve got to watch this eye-opening, scary video by Trevor Loudon,

Glenn Beck’s “go to” person for identifying President Obama's inner

circle of friends, socialist supporters, and the mentors who dramatically

influenced his political perspective. Loudon authored the acclaimed

book “Barack Obama and the Enemies Within”. He exposed Van Jones,

the “green jobs czar,” as a radical leftist, which led to Jones’ departure

from the Obama administration.

Loudon’s bottom line, well-documented, message is that for decades,

You owe it to your family and friends, and to America, to blast this to your

Alright, I know that the Electoral College remains a mystery to most people, but after a quick Google of the topic, anyone should be able to have enough information to realize why the founding fathers put such a system into place.

Evidently CBS Sunday Morning programmers/editors/writers have had their fingers broken or don't have access to a computer....

CBS Sunday Morning (10/21) just finished a piece on the Electoral College that was created to undermine and vilify this part of voting process. Using young school children (they're so cute, innocent and honest that you have to have sympathy with them - typical emotional blackmail tactics), they set out to show how UNFAIR the Electoral College is to the voters (after all, "your vote doesn't count") and how antiquated the process is ("no other country in the world uses a construct like the Electoral College").

What they don't explain is that the Founding Fathers realized the destructiveness of anarchy brought about by the popular vote, how 'popularity' and 'emotionality' could swing this country onto the wrong course; sort of like being hoodwinked by a slick talking community organizer with silky words but no action plan.....oops been there, done that.

The rest of the piece went on to talk about the organizations who have put into plan the nullification/revocation of the Electoral College, even having 'constitutional scholars' backing such plans....oops been there, done that too.

This insidious plan to nullify the Electoral College must be exposed and stopped before it negates that safeguards put into place by our founding fathers.

States who participate in the plan to nullify the Electoral College include Massachusetts. The nullification phenomenon is all the more important because of the deafening silence from Washington. It should come as no surprise that there are no fiery, angry complaints from Washington regarding this challenge to the Constitution by Massachusetts legislators. Five other states already have passed similar measures. The current administration is very choosy in how it asserts its authority.

The Constitution can be altered or amended only through a constitutional convention or a two-thirds vote in both Houses of Congress (Article 5). State legislatures are not empowered to alter or amend the Constitution.

The Founders were very specific about their preference for representative versus direct democracy. They thought, with a few exceptions, that direct democracy would be more likely to lead to a tyranny of the people very much like what was seen in the murderous and cruel actions of mobs in the latter stages of the French Revolution.

John Adams and Thomas Jefferson argued these points extensively, especially during their famous correspondence. Adams took the representation side and Jefferson the populist.

Adams was motivated by a lack of trust in the ability of “the people” (as a bloc) to make the wisest decisions. He argued that better-qualified people (educated and with upstanding character) should be selected by the general electorate so they could then make the best decisions in their representative capacity. In this way, the mob mentality of large populations, like that of the French Revolution, could best be negated.

We must defend our Constitutionality.

We must ensure that the safeguards put into place over 200 years ago remain.

We MUST make this an issue along with our political party affiliations, or we will be ruled by the emotional, pandered to masses whose motivation comes from what they can get from those who still pay taxes.

Obama’s election firewall is melting like a house of wax all over America.  States like Florida, Virginia, Iowa, Michigan, and Wisconsin where President Obama’s election machines had once appeared impregnable are now crumbling.  What is even more telling is that Ohio, the battleground of all battleground states is now fast becoming Obama’s possible Waterloo.

According to many recent national polls, including results from Fox News Poll that was released Friday, October 19^th, Obama’s lead over Republican challenger Mitt Romney is narrowing.  The president’s former lead of 49-42 percent from late September has dwindled to 46-43 percent.  What appears even clearer is that the president’s second debate performance, while well scripted at how to be evasive and fact challenged, and has not slowed Romney’s growing momentum.

The growing White House cover up of how U.S. ambassador to Libya J. Christopher Stevens and 3 other Americans were murdered on September 11^th  at the American consulate in Benghazi is taking center stage.  As more and more intelligence documentation, real time videos, and congressional documents are made public a bizarre and tragic web of deceit is being unearthed.

The White House and the president’s campaign have stepped up their visits to Ohio and other battle ground states as well as their attacks on Romney.  Their hope is that voters would ignore the facts that these murders were avoidable and preventable.  But on Monday October 22^nd, the last presidential debate should bring the truth of the Benghazi scandal and the unraveling of the administration’s stonewalling into America’s living rooms.

The presidential election stakes are much, much higher now.  Now the White House narrative and tangled terrorist assault storylines are unraveling, thanks to the recent congressional hearings on Capitol Hill. Its gets even worse.  President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden are now telling competing versions of the Libyan murders’ timeline. 

Timing is everything, and with Foreign Affairs being on the table for the last debate, the White House is on lock down.  It is refusing to honor requests for documents from congress that detail what the president knew, when he knew it and what action did he take. Fear that truth of possible evidence being covered up concerning pre and post attack terrorist activity by the White House could prove an administration cover up is in play.

What evidence could the administration be afraid of providing congress and the American voter before the election?  Could it be proof that Ambassador Stevens desperately sent request after request to the State Department for more security, while terrorists linked to al-Qaeda steadily increased their attacks and assaults as late as August on the consulate?

Could it be evidence that the President decided to ignore in-person daily Security Council briefing.  Will White House meetings records reveal that he either golfed or attended entertainment and Hollywood fundraisers on the lead up to the anniversary of the most horrific terrorist attack in the nation’s history?

What is so important in the timeline which lead up the murders in Benghazi that Obama is afraid that voters will discover?  What the administration possibly fears can be found in the recent Fox News video concerning the timeline that led up to the Benghazi tragedy.   ( Read More )

Today marked an epiphany in my life. An event occurred which set me off on a quest. Like Don Quixote, I am probably tilting at windmills, but I must pursue the seemingly impossible dream nonetheless.

I was out in the front yard washing out the endless supply of dirty litter pans when much to my surprise, the Chinese made hose connector blew off the end of my Chinese made hose, thereby drenching me and my Chinese made clothes. I paid good, hard-earned money for all of the above, so I naturally found myself in a somewhat inhospitable state of mind. After graphically discussing the ancestry of the evil people who made these despicable items of torture, I went in and changed into dry clothes and convinced myself that now was the time to publically address this deplorable situation.

For years now, I, like all other Americans, have watched the value of my money dwindle. Each time I go into a store, my money seems to purchase less for the same expenditure. And, like most people, it has come to my attention that darn near everything I purchase is made in China, or Taiwan, or Korea, etc.  Some of the products are OK, others are so-so. Those from mainland China are almost without exception --- JUNK!  And as indicated, I am not discussing their charming little sail boats. I am talking about the boatload after seemingly endless boatload of consumer products that are poorly made, broken in the original container, broken shortly after being put into service, and in some cases, downright hazardous to your health and well-being. It would seem that quality control is a phrase that does not translate into either of the common Chinese dialects (Mandarin or Cantonese for those who are interested).

I can’t count the number of times I have purchased a product only to discover I could just as easily have flushed the money paid down my Chinese made toilet and saved a lot of time and travel. (assuming of course that the toilet still works). I have decided that there are two distinct issues here that need to be addressed. I shall deal with them in turn.

I, like many working Americans, shop at what are referred to as the “Big Box” stores; most notably, Wal-Mart. Usually, if the item is bad out of the box or reasonably new (30 days or less) and you can still locate the sales ticket, Wal-Mart will grudgingly replace the item. After 30 days you are instructed to get in touch with the manufacturer. Now, I don’t know about the rest of you, but I am NOT going to spend hours on the phone, in the middle of the night,  with a functionally illiterate customer service representative in China. The only way to prevent this problem is if you agree to pay Wal-Mart for an “Extended Service Policy”. OK, most items carry about a year of manufacturer’s warranty. At one time, a store that sold products from a manufacturer was considered an agent in fact of the manufacturer. They were required to honor the original warranty. For instance, if I buy a car, any dealership in the country is required to honor the manufacturer’s warranty. There was a time when a store, Sears for instance, would replace or repair a misbehaving item of merchandise with no hassle. Wal-Mart? Forget it. Unless you pay them first, they don’t honor any warranty … period. You buy it, it’s yours, and the manufacturer. This needs to be stopped. If a store sells a product, they should be made to honor the full term of the manufacturer’s warranty without a payoff. When they sell a product they should be forced to stand behind it. If the product line has a history of shoddy workmanship and constant failures, then it behooves the store to find another source of products that they can reasonably expect to last through the warranty period. They should take the same gamble that a car dealer has to take. This must be made enforceable under state or federal law (preferably state law). There should be no ambiguity; if a store sells a product, they are on the hook for the warranty if it fails or breaks under normal usage. Period.

OK. That problem is relatively easy to solve. The other problem is going to be a powder keg. China has most favored nation status with the US of A. They are considered a major “trading” partner. This does not mean what you think it does. Normally, a trading partner is one who sells their products in our markets and allows our manufacturers to sell their products in the foreign market. Not so with China. We owe China an incredible amount of money. Money borrowed in boatloads by our screwed up federal government. No names or finger pointing here as all administrations have spent more than they had on hand. Both parties are to blame. We spend like there is no tomorrow. Since we can’t repay our debt to China in the foreseeable future, we give them most favored status. They send us tons and tons of what amounts to crap and we get to sell … zip … in their markets, unless you count MacDonald’s burgers as a trade item. They have us over a trade barrel and they know it. They can send whatever they want, no matter how crummy, and we are more or less forced to take it. Our federal government has failed us miserably in this area. All of our homegrown manufacturing has left for China and other labor friendly countries. They can let quality go to pot and still make a killing selling it to us. China taxes the manufacturers and charges an export duty to ship our own stuff back to us. We on the other hand make every effort to keep import duties low so as to not tick the Chinese off. The consumer pays for all this good old boy backroom dealing. The manufacturers get their products to market here for little or no real investment in labor. They let quality slip because who is going to call them in the middle of the night? The politicians let the junk into our markets, driving local production out of business. The stores sell the cheap junk below what a mom and pop store can manage which drives out the competition, small though it is. The big box boys buy the junk for next to nothing and sell it to the unsuspecting public with no assurance that it will work or keep working past next Tuesday. Everybody benefits except the American consumers. I propose a slight change in the status quo.

Let’s create an agency (yes another one) to inspect at random as many products as possible at the port of entry. Any products found lacking in safety or quality are denied entry. The manufacturer is put on notice that they will not be allowed to ship goods into the USA for a period of six months. After six months, their products will again be tested and if found to be unable to meet the requirements, they are banned for a period of one to five years. Those who do manage to pass the second test will be hit with a 25% import duty for a period of five years after they are granted access to our markets. These “fees” will help defray the cost of staffing the agency and testing labs. These conditions are to be foisted on American companies doing business abroad as well as foreign companies. Any company who has three or more violations in a ten year period will be permanently banned from US markets. Severe? Yup. I don’t see any alternative. If we don’t put a stop to this travesty, it will only get worse … much worse.

Hmmmm ...  just an afterthought.  I just bought a package of “Texas Gulf Coast Shrimp” at Kroger. When I got it home, sure enough, at the bottom of the package was the statement “Farm raised in Thailand”. Sighhhh. What’s next?
