They, the Congress (BOTH "REPUBLICAN AND DEMOCRATS TOGETHER") say no increase is warranted because of the losses in gross national product and other cute things..

NOW SPORTS FANS THIS IS THE ONE THAT WILL FLIP YOU OUT!!

THE SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION IS FUNDING TWENTY FOUR MILLION DOLLARS -- FOR NEW ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORDS PROCESSING FOR OUR CONGRESSMEN AND SENATORS !!

Obama Seeks Control Of America’s Waterways & LakesMarch 12, 2010 – While most Americans are focused on defeating Obama’s plan to nationalize our health care system, the President has been quietly working behind the scenes to engineer another federal takeover.

This time, he’s targeting America’s waterways for seizure by the federal government.

First it was our financial institutions, then it was General Motors. Currently he’s working for complete control of our health care system. Now, he wants control over our water.

Under Obama’s federal seizure plan, he would set up nine regional bureaucracies to “decrease user conflicts, improve planning and regulatory efficiencies and decrease their associated costs and delays; and preserve critical ecosystem function and services.”

This is code for having federal bureaucrats determining who can fish in our oceans, coastal areas, lakes and rivers.

Obama’s Ocean Policy Task Force is overseeing the federal takeover and the selective banning of fishing. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is involved in this takeover as well. NOAA is headed by Obamunist Janet Lubchenco, who has ties to radical environmentalist groups. Lubchenco was a trustee of the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) and served on the Pew Oceans Commission.

Shortly before Obama was elected, a coalition of environmental groups issued a report called “Transition To Green” to push the Obama Administration toward radical environmental policies. According to ESPN, Obama’s task force has followed lockstep in implementing this document.

Recreational fishermen are outraged by what they see as the destruction of a major industry in the U.S. More than a million jobs in America are linked to recreational fishing. Obama’s task force could kill this industry if it begins regulating who can or cannot fish on our nation’s waterways.

“Transition To Green” is a blueprint for the complete takeover of environmental policies by radical greens. The document recommends that Obama enforce green policies largely through the use of Executive Orders, which avoid Congressional oversight.

While the recommendations sound okay on the surface, there is a sinister side to this that will result in a socialist state.

If all of the recommendations in “Transition To Green” are implemented by Obama during the next few years, our nation will be transformed into a European socialist state with a stagnant economy and few freedoms left.

This is probably on our minds this weekend, so wanted to share a list of the 64 Congressmen (minus Murtha) who voted for the Stupak Amendment, the 30 potential Swing Votes, and the ONE Republican vote.

What's being done by these radicals is worse than unconstitutional. If they get away with "deeming" a bill passed, where does it stop? Deeming Cap & Trade, deeming Illegal Amnesty, deeming youth camps, deeming the next president, deeming him King? God help us:

Dear Patriots

The Southern Poverty Law Center is a tax-exempt charity, (501) C (3), and they continue to violate the IRS code that states charities can not engage politically in a way that decreases the electability of certain candidates. Their Spring 2010 Intelligence Report (http://www.splcenter.org/get-informed/intelligence-report/browse-all-issues/2010/spring/active-patriot-groups-in-the-united-s) lists who they think are bad political parties and political groups..basically a lot of patriotic groups, and would have a negative impact on candidates affiliated with those groups. We patriots should complain to our representative and the IRS that the SPLC is violating the tax code and should have their tax-exempt status removed. Then we should boycott their list of donors (listed below) who got to take a nice, big tax deduction for their donation to a group that attacks our patriotism. Then we can tell their donors we are going to boycott them. This is a direct way we can have an impact and END THE TAX EXEMPT STATUS OF THE SPLC!

According to DiscoverTheNetworks.org "between 2001 and 2004, SPLC was the recipient of 59 foundation grants totaling $3,326,425. The donors included: the Arcus Foundation; the Baltimore Community Foundation; the Cisco Systems Foundation; the Cleveland Foundation, the Naomi and Nehemiah Cohen Foundation; the Columbus Foundation and Affiliated Organizations; the Community Foundation for Southeastern Michigan; the Community Foundation for the National Capital Region; Community Foundation (Silicon Valley); the Cushman Family Foundation; the Dibner Fund; the Joseph and Bessie Feinberg Foundation; the Ford Foundation; the Edward and Verna Gerbic Family Foundation; the Jackson and Irene Golden 1989 Charitable Trust; the Lisa and Douglas Goldman Fund; the Grove Foundation; the J.M. Kaplan Fund; the J.P Morgan Chase Foundation; the Kaplen Foundation; the Open Society Institute; the Albert Parvin Foundation; the Picower Foundation; the Jay Pritzker Foundation; the Louis and Harold Price Foundation; the Public Welfare Foundation; the Raine and Stanley Silverstein Family Foundation; the Spiegel Foundation; the State Street Foundation; the Steinberg Charitable Trust; and the Vanguard Public Foundation."

Steve,

I have no illusions that healthcare will ever get fixed but it does not mean that I won’t put up a fight. Politics, money or both seem to always get in the way. Politicians will never make the hard choices that need to be made.

Our country was founded as a representative republic, not a democracy, and it was the most successful nation that ever existed in history. Today we are a socialist democracy slipping fast into a socialistic fascist form of government with less and less freedoms every day. The country has been drifting into a socialist society over the last 100 years and history tells me that it will never ever get back to where it was without a total collapse of the economy. This has always happened to all true democratic forms of government. Not one has ever been successful on the long term because of self-serving greed. They always destroy themselves, from within, in about 200 years and I feel we are no exception.

People do not learn from history. We are no longer a free enterprise based country and have slowly subjected ourselves to more and more government interference and control. This only drives up the cost of everything, as government produces nothing and is a leach upon the producers of society. That is why the founders formed a government with very few powers and minimum intrusion. Most of these limitations of power in the constitution have been ignored over the last 100 years.

The more that is delegated to the government the less freedom and wealth the citizens will have. I have clearly seen this reduction of freedoms and wealth in my lifetime. When I was growing up, in the average household, one parent worked and the other took care of the home front. Today it takes two people working one or more jobs to pay the bills while the standard of living is declining. It is much harder for my children to make a living than it was for me when I was young. This happened because our government at all levels was taking more and more money from the producers of society and giving it to someone else. This is the same story over and over in history.

We now are in very big trouble with the debt and other obligations our congress have put on us. Our country is financially insolvent due to greed, past spending practices and un-funded social programs and we just can’t afford healthcare for everyone. This is just the cold hard fact. Government has never been efficient at anything and more of it will just make things worse. Government is the problem not the solution and interference with the citizens at all levels plus the lawyers have driven up healthcare cost to the extent it is unsustainable. My doctor told me that he has to have two employees just to take care of paperwork for the work he does and that is just a start. He loses money on every Medicare or Medicaid patient plus others he sees and has to shift those costs to those that have better insurance coverage. He told me on my last visit that he would quit his practice if this health care bill gets passed and he is in his 40’s.

The whole system is rigged to shift costs from those that can pay to those that can’t. This is the main reason medicine and health insurance costs so much. As to your references to price controls, just remember the gas lines of the 70’s. They were caused by Carters price controls. It would be the same for medicine if implemented. Just like communism, it sounds good in theory but has never ever worked and always ends with disaster for the people. If we had a real competitive free market we would not have these high costs. The cost shifting has to stop or we will never get this fixed.

I believe we will have a total financial collapse in the near future if very unpleasant real changes are not made quickly. This is what I would do to turn around the country and health care:

1. Ban the Federal government from all health related programs including Medicare and Medicaid and relegate them back to the states. These programs would have to have modifications to eligible retirement age with reduced benefits.

2. Require all insurance companies be able to do business in any state under uniform laws. This would require modification of state laws to make uniform laws in all states. By the way, the current profit margin for the health insurance industry is less than 5%. Way less than other businesses and no government could operate on that slim margin.

3. Require all insurance companies that write health insurance to insure anyone that applied and not be able to drop those that got sick with the same uniform rates for everyone. Anyone that does not have insurance and needs medical care would be financially responsible for the bill with no government backup other than bankruptcy. This would economically force most people to buy insurance thus reducing policy costs.

4. Pass true tort reform like Mississippi or Texas that applies to all states to eliminate frivolous lawsuits.

5. Make health savings accounts available to everyone though state payroll withholding.

Again, I have no delusions that these things will ever be done but I do know some day we will look back and wish we did.

Being a very young single mother during the mid-60s and 70s, my liberal upbringing took a beating and got a breath of reality. As I struggled on my own (without depending on anyone or any government) to keep a roof over my little boy's head, food on the table, and clothes on his back, I watched young people collecting welfare, food stamps, free clinics, free eye-glasses, asking me for "some change", while marching themselves in protest of the government that gave them these freebies. College campuses were another great stage for more protests, and let us never forget the likes of Hanoi Hannah, Jane Fonda.

These hypocrites (hippies for short) are now running our government, and are very close to their lifelong goal of redistributing wealth by destroying our economy. But in the process, they have underestimated the American spirit, inbred for many generations, now fighting back to preserve the American Dream and our Founding Father's vision.

Glenn Beck Was Interrupted At CPAC

glenn-beck-appendicitis.jpg

by Frequent Raucous Applause from the audience of the most vociferous Conservatives in the U.S. at their Conference in Washington D.C.

Glenn Beck, the Fox News commentator was the final speaker at the three-day conference following the Conservative, and some of the Republican Party's "Brand Names."

Glenn Beck spoke of his lack of a college education and how he has become a success in spite of being an alcoholic.

He also spoke of his love of reading, that he continues even now that he has both a daily radio show and Fox News Cable TV program. His speech than concentrated on the history of the "Progressices" in the U.S. and the real story, Click Link: Behind The Statue Of Liberty

Many of the Conference attendees would be surprised at some of, Click Link:

NEWS ALLERT!!! America has been attacted.

A war has been declared on the hearts and minds of our children and most people do not realize it.

The special Glenn Beck night needs to be watched by every parent and shown to their kids and grandchildren. Political indoctrination of our children is happening all across the nation and has been going on for a while. It has recently been really stepped up. Parents need to be aware what is being taught to their children in the local schools. Most of this stuff is very suttle and on the surface sounds good and is easy to sell. You will not believe your eyes if you have not already seen this special. This is very insidious. I read the Communist Manifesto in the early 70's and this type of thing was one of the planks used to move a country to Communism.

If you missed his show you can see the entire show through these links. Please pass them on to everyone.

Protest the problem not the Lion

Ever wonder why people gather to protest the intentions of our leaders? Do we believe our voices and sign are seen and heard by the protested? Could be. Policies we protest sometimes get stopped or slowed down but are the policies really the only problem.

Our President is, well a marxis. He was before he became president, while he was running for president, and remains one. Why is it that in this nation, a radical leftist can run the greatest, most free and most opportunistic nation in history?

When I watch nature shows with lions taking down a zebra, I think, it sucks to be that zebra. I may imagin myself in the role of that zebra and think that the lion is a terrible menace. But then I come to reality and know the lion is what it is.

I see our liberal leaders kind of the same way. They are what they are. They have a game changing goal that I think is terrible and do not want are nation transformed into a stagnent socialist, statist or marxist nation. While protesting at the steps of the capital building is very necessary, we MUST look at the source. BHO would not be where he is if he did not have the backing of our media. We say, 'media bias' then go on sniveling about what is being done to use. The media will just marginalize our efforts and call us racists or extremists.

I have the best idea in the whole protesting world. Instead of.... NO on top of protesting with a million people at the capital build steps, lets gather outside the headquarters of cbs,abc,nbc,cnn, and nyt and demand truth and a fair depiction of the view of the elected officials.

ONWARD, HE SAID, REGARDLESS

After all the business that has been thrown at the American people the past 18 months, it feels like we all need to take a long hot sanitizing shower. The feeling of being played is not a nice one, and boy, have we been played by this administration. You even heard it from their very mouths in the beginning, when both Rahm Emanuel and Duchess Hillary Clinton proclaimed,

“You never want a serious crisis to go to waste. What I mean by that is it’s an opportunity to do things that you think you could not do before...."

Who's really ready?

I, like many others don't want a post Tea party event, but am afraid we the peopel just might have to wage an outright war on the maggots in DC. They will not relinquish their money grubbuing hands just because of a vote. They are already set for life if they just keep taking from the rest of us. I believe before it's all over that most Americans will be driven into poverty. Do you really think they are responsible to the rest of us. Let's face it, they don't givve a damn about how poor most of us will become if this "health care plan" gets passed. Those reps in Washington will follow what the Bilderbergers want them to do to ensure thier status and privilige. Is anyone listening? Letters to the so-called elected officials don't even get read. They only read letters of praise for the piss-poor job they are doing. The government has gotten so corrupt they can't do anything right, and Obama bin Laden is going to get his way no matter what anyone says.

I feel a real war is coming. None of us who have fought for this country want to see it happen here again, but no one has come up with a solution to the problem. Just a bunch of words that mean nothing. It has never worked before, so why does anyone think it will work now. We the people will have to defend ourselves against the mercenaries callled the FBI,DEA, CIA, etc, etc.. Are you ready for a war in order to save the Constitution from those who swore to defend it against enemiess, both foreign and domestic. Ron Paul had the right idea and that's why he didn't come close to getting the nomiation. The powers that be want world control. They are more than willing to turn this country and the rest of the world into the nightmare story movie callled Soylent Green that came out in the 70's.

why isn't Jean Reno in prison for ruby Ridge and Waco. Weaver was a licensed firearms dealer. and the people at Waco weren't bothering anyone. Those idiots in Washington are too educated to understand the simple words, These rights shall not be infringed upon."

Like the Senator from new hampshire said to Bill maher when asked, what do you do about gun control in your state. The Senator replied with a smile,"the second ammendment." He had to repeat himself several times with the same words. Let's elect him president. At least he's not bought and paid for like our current government.

"Fire them all.."

A Nation of Fools by Peary Perry (www.pearyperry.com)(sign up for new articles at www.pearyperry.com)“Fire them all…”Over the past thirty or forty years, I’ve hired and fired a good number of people. Hiring is easy, firing is hard. When you’re hiring, you’re giving someone a chance and a hope that their actions (as well as yours) will lead everyone to a more productive lifestyle. Firing someone is somewhat more difficult since you know your actions are going to cause stress on someone’s life and most likely their family. If you hired someone by mistake (mine) and they really were not cut out for the job position, you could not help but feel sorry for them because you had to let them go. They should not have been hired in the first place, but often times you just were hoping they could pull it together and make the cut.The only time you didn’t mind firing someone is when you had put your faith and trust in them and they have let you down. They either failed to do what they were hired to do or they were totally unresponsive to your instructions concerning their job descriptions. The folks who fit into this category were never an issue with me. Shame on them for taking my money and my time. Good riddance.The people in Washington fit the second category. An argument can be made in light of Senator Bunning’s’ actions these past several days. Senator Bunning is not running for re-election and effectively stopped the extension of the unemployment payments by asking how the congress expected to pay for the benefits. For this he has been called every name in the book. The liberals have pounced on Senator Bunning as if he were the anti-Christ and the foulest monster known to mankind. The senator was merely asking the congress to live up to their own rules imposed a few weeks ago to pay for any new benefits ‘as you go’. It’s obvious the liberals (and some Republicans) are uncomfortable with actually putting this concept into action. Let’s talk a good game, but carry on business as usual. Meanwhile the national debt is approaching 13 trillion dollars and once the unfunded liabilities are factored in, we have a debt in this country equal to over 4 times our total gross domestic product. The various unfunded liabilities are as follows:OASDI (Social Security) (7,677)Medicare Part A (13,770)Medicare Part B (17,165)Medicare Part D (7,172)Unfunded Liabilities (45,784)Net Explicit Debt (11,456)Total Debt and Unfunded Liabilities (57,240)GDP 9/2009 14,242Ratio 402%Hiding some forms of debt is as old as the hills; anyone who has ever borrowed money for a corporation knows how this game is played. You lease rather than buy, and the balance of the lease is not shown anywhere, but believe me it’s there if you want to drop out and go home. A good CPA will tell you that accounting is an art not a science. The government employs the same people; they know how the shell game is played.It appears so do the members of the United States Congress, they want to continue to play this old game until they get their money and head for the hills. They don’t think we’re smart enough to figure out what is happening. We’re too stupid to know anything or be able to do anything about their actions.They are not listening to us. They are not paying attention to what we are saying. They are not following our directions.They need to be fired.They need to be replaced with individuals who will listen to what we’re saying to them. They need to respect the wishes and thoughts of the voters in their districts. Members of Congress ( Baron Hill) who make statements such as … “This is MY town hall meeting and you Will abide by MY rules…” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtmgQ2W3lhM) should be sent home and kicked out of their political revelry. This is not representation in any way shape or form. This is pure distain for the voting public.Do not let this moment in time pass, keep up the pressure, talk to people, e-mail your friends, stop watching sit-coms and watch the news on every channel, make noise….if enough of us bang the drums….someone will hear.Comments go to pperry@austin.rr.comComplaints go nowhere.(sign up for new articles at www.pearyperry.com)

Republican Senator Judd Gregg pointed by giving out $250.00 to seniors would defeat the purpose of indexing Social Security payments to inflation."The law says it shouldn't be given,( like when it comes to their own pocket is the only time they really care) 250 bucks to them is nothing to us life or death!

WHEN IN THE COURSE OF HUMAN EVENTS....

The Declaration of Independence was written by some of the most brilliant minds God and Man ever created. Written by men and women who had lived through one of the worst tyrannical rules in history. Most of the time, people don't think about the Declaration of Independence, until recently. Over the years, we have seen the chipping away at the edges of our Constitution, believing that the people we elected would protect it and our freedoms -- until the election of Barack Hussein Obama. Now, with a narcissistic psychopath in the White House, all hell has broken loose.

History and a slight twist.

Over five thousand years ago, Moses said to the children of Israel " pick up your shovel, mount your asses and camels, and I will lead you to the Promised Land".

Nearly 75 years ago, Roosevelt said, "Lay down your shovels, sit on your asses, and light up a Camel, this is the Promised Land".

Now Obama has stolen your shovel, taxed your asses, raised the price of Camels, and mortgaged the Promised Land!

Rid the Nation of the Federal Reserve

The Fed Has been stealing the wealth from this nation since 1913, thanks to Woodrow Wilson and the others who conspired with Paul Warburg on Christmas eve 1913. Since then Congress, Senators, Fed Judges have done everything in there power to keep that bunch of crooked bankers in our pockets. Naturally they are being paid off and answer to them daily. Check this out Lincoln was shot not for slavery but for printing Green-backs, U.S. dollars. He didn't want central banks in this country. Andrew Jackson didn't either, he had four assassination attempts on him. John F. Kennedy wrote an Executive Order to end the Fed in 1963, actually had some U.S. dollars printed. Go to any coin collector they will show you originals or copies of those bills. Sixteen weeks later JFK was dead. Ever since the Constitution was in place the money changers have been in this country destroying the wealth. They are just following what is in there own holy book, the Talmud, stealing from the Goyim. They are still in place and now have embedded themselves into practically every area, to stabilize there power over us. Just to name a few: Bernanke, Greenspan, Geitner, Rom Emanuel, Schumer, Weinstein The Zionists control the media , TV, Papers, Magazines, Movie industry,Google, Jewish run you name it they own it. The things that just Greenspan & Bernanke have done to this nation makes Bernie Madoff look like a rookie. Let me stop you before you say it, I am not anti-semetic, I think the media has worn this statement out and its getting obvious who they are trying to protect. They are deliberatly destroying this and other nations thru the money systems. Soon these people will have nowhere to hide, they are being exposed, finally. I'm just giving you facts that are right there for you to look up for yourself, ARE YOU READY FOR THE TRUTH OR DO YOU WANT TO JUST LISTEN TO THE SAME OLD MEDIA LIES AND LOOSE THIS GREAT COUNTRY. My final statement is to the Fed from all Americans, stick your debt! You created this false debt under fraud of our constitution. So there is no debt. Anything created under fraud is mute. Maybe the Fed should go talk to Red China and tell them about all the worthless Bonds you sold them, maybe China will occupy Israel really quickly and our problems will be over. At least we won't have to send $15,000,000 that's millions of dollars each day to Israel in Foreign aid money, that we don't have, I say take care of our own. Start our own state run banks, just like North Dakota has already done. And of course print and distribute our U.S dollars thru those banks.

Respect and Decorum to other Members

This movement is not selective and is open to various points of views. There is a difference in disagreeing with someone and being malicious. I like wit and believe in free speech, however, it should be limited when the intent is to do harm and not add value to the converstion. There is not a perfect individual here, so quit pontificating that your arrogance doesn't stink. It is often said I think thou protests too much, which means you must have faults of your own and covering by attacking others.

I do not like character assassinations and social issues are quite different then fiscal issues. This is a non-partisan forum and all our members shares the same fiscally conservative values and love of the Constitution. The problem plaguing us is a misguided administration, whether there are Republicans or Democrats in office. I'm asking each member to kindley to redirect your comments on the policies that are weakening our nation than attacking other members. Hopefully, you can display some decorum and a degree of respect to your fellow man.

As the Extreem Right and Extreem Left wrangle for money and power, the main streem Americans ignored and the our so called leaders chosing to do anything but to "represent the will of the people" - it is utterly shamefull that the predicment Amerca is in at present. One way we can take back America is to follow a peacefull, anti-incumbancy movement. Let's send a message "America comes first".

Let's vote out every incumbant - Democrat or Republican. The newly elected, inexperienced Congressman and Senators can't do any worse than what the current leadership has done.

Let's hold criminals responsible for their actions. Let's focus on the victims and NOT the criminals.
