Joel's Rant

Who exactly is this guy?  What kind of great and amazing hoax is being played on the citizens of the United States?  Where was he born, for crying out loud?  Where are his college transcripts, his applications for financial aid, his medical records, the articles he wrote in college and any material he produced while president of the Harvard Law Review?  Who were his clients while at the law firm?  Where are the papers and reports he produced while an Illinois state senator?

None of this either exists or is being made available……………and none of his supporters seems to care.  He’s like an alien from outer space that has some sort of mesmerizing hold on people.  This is completely crazy.  This guy is nothing.  He’s dirt.  He’s worse.

And as if to prove that characterization, take a look at the commentary which makes quite a case for the fact that this guy’s singular popular culture impact was to author a book about his life that caught the imagination of his lunatic supporters.

It seems highly and amazingly possible and believable that he, in fact, never wrote this book at all.  Yet, doesn’t that make complete sense?  That would be in character for the spectacle we are witnessing, no?

This is really quite shocking, even if you are a liberal/socialist/Marxist supporter.  If this doesn’t represent clear tyranny nothing does.
 
You owe it to yourself and your family to run through this quick list, sit quietly for a while contemplating what it means, and then taking action by calling your various representatives and Senators and condemning the voices that wrote this attempt at legislative excrement.
 
If you disagree,  love to hear your thoughts.

Is it possible that the President of the United States is at war with the United States?  Is it possible that the Democratic Party is actually a criminal enterprise? 

These must certainly sound like outrageous accusations, but let us examine some of the facts, regarding our nation’s economy, during the past 6 months and see if those descriptions apply:

• Barack Obama’s actions will literally triple the accumulated national debt to more than all of the combined debt from Presidents George Washington to, and including, George W. Bush.  Even the Congressional Budget Office has indicated, as recently as July 16, 2009, that the debt being accumulated through these actions is unsustainable and threatens the very existence of our national government,
•  In one year, 2009, his budget deficit will more than quadruple, to $1.8 trillion, the next highest single year budget deficit,
•  Once those many trillions of new dollars are in circulation the stage will be set for an inflationary period that will devalue our currency, destroy savings and retirement and turn accumulated wealth into worthless paper,
•  Since his inauguration, the “official” unemployment rate increased from 7% to 9.5%.  However, once all of the part-time workers and those not looking for jobs within the previous 4 months are included into this equation, the unemployment rate then actually jumps to 17%, and in some states even reaches 20% or more, figures common in socialist western Europe but not seen in this country since the Great Depression,
•  He has promoted actions in which the government has declared bankruptcy law “void” and changed the rules so that investment, capital spending and job creation have completely stalled to a halt. There are no incentives for people to start new businesses or expand production and with job producing “small businesses” the prime target of the bulk of new personal and corporate taxes.
•  Housing foreclosures continue at an unprecedented pace, 
• By using unconstitutional machinations, the government of the United States has taken over 2 car companies, 1 multi-national bank and 1 multi-national insurance company and injected itself into the free market and is threatening other industries including energy, pensions, college loans, insurance and transportation, among others,
•  With the eager assistance of his minions in the Democrat controlled Congress, he has begun a process to nationalize the health care industry in this country so that, eventually, all medical decisions will be made by a Politburo and carried out by faceless bureaucrats at an additional “conservative” cost estimate of over $1.5 trillion in 10 years,
•  Along with his Democrat minions, has proceeded with a plan to control all energy production and usage which will affect everything from food pricing, to buying and selling houses, to thermostat settings and the number of toilet flushes.  A government that controls carbon dioxide  controls YOU,
•  New plans being developed will completely open the borders and grant amnesty to all comers, thereby creating economic havoc and further driving up costs while cultivating new loyal Democrat voters at the taxpayers’ expense,
•  Barack Obama has created as many as 30 czars, and there may be more on the way. Each of these has enormous government power, and answers only to the president. These appointments violate both the constitutional system of checks and balances and the constitutional separation of powers, and are a clear attempt to evade congressional oversight.  They essentially provide him with what amounts to dictatorial control.
• Through his connections to ACORN, other militant anti-American organizations funded by George Soros and other rich Democrats has created an atmosphere in which elections are stolen and the threat to free speech and the independent media are compromised.

And there’s more, without even mentioning a foreign policy ashamed of everything this wonderful and courageous country has stood for over the last 200 years.

Everything we love about this country is under assault, but it’s an assault from within.

The President is elected as a temporary caretaker.  He is not a “King”, he was not elected to change our culture into some concept that is all his own.  He is supposed to “………preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”  That is all he is legally empowered to do, yet actions that have been taken or proposed would fundamentally change the nature of the American government and its society and culture. 

It is time for us to begin the process of taking back our country now.  That means more than just voting for Conservatives or Republicans.  That’s important, but it’s not enough.

It’s time for us to become “Super Citizens.” 

It’s time to understand all the facts, to pay attention to what’s happening at every level of our national, state and local governments.

It’s time to talk with your friends and relatives and neighbors and coworkers and others, to educate them about what’s happening and what the stakes are.

It’s time to be active with likeminded people, to go to activities and be a part of organizations that support the values that will save our country from something very dark, very fearful and very sinister.

It’s time to act in a way that guarantees your children and grandchildren will enjoy the blessings of this country, the way you and I have, so their lives are even better and more fulfilled in their futures.

This is a “call to arms” to all those that love liberty.  It is a call to join forces.  Each one of us does not have to act alone.  We need to act as a single force to save the country we love. 

But we have to ACT!

The following quote by Thomas Jefferson says it all:

“When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.”

Is it not clear that we now are in a period of tyranny?  It’s time to get to work!

Get ready for one of the biggest changes in your adult life and one that could have major or even catastrophic consequences as you get older and use your doctors more and more.  Right on page 16 of the health care bill that passed the House, and which is being this week given the full court press by Barack Obama himself, are the words that spell out the administrations’ plans for your health care – it’s all government or nothin’.
 
All this talk about “….if you like your present health care and you like your doctors you won’t have to change…….” stuff is just lies.  Barack Obama is a liar.  A bold faced liar.  For those that are Barack Obama supporters you better start getting used to hearing that because it’s true and your going to hear it more from now on.
 
The truth is getting out.  He’s a liar.  And he’s dangerous.
 
Let’s see if the hand picked reporters will ask him hand picked questions at his Wednesday propaganda conference in which he’ll put the best spin possible on how he’s going to limit your choices, ration your care, ruin the medical industry and otherwise make you into a victim that’ll require congressional intervention just so you can get the medication you need. 
 
If you’re like me, pushing 60 or over, this health care “gun” is pointed directly at people just like YOU.  It’s YOU who will need the most care in the coming years and it’s upon your back that the costs of medical care in “Obama World” will be reduced.  YOU are wearing a big red target, for crying out loud!
 
Lines in the sand should be drawn NOW.  Once your coverage is gone folks, it’s going to be gone FOREVER.

There may be those that approve of this Obama and Democrat tax policy because it’ll only affect “rich people”.  Really?  Once this law gets passed, what’s to say that at some point, maybe really soon, the income level being taxed becomes lower and lower and eventually “only the rich” will mean people or businesses earning $50,000 or even less.  Is that not possible?  Is that not even probable?
 
And for what?  Who among you is ready and willing to give up your present health insurance for “government care”?  Congress and the President already took action to exempt themselves from this disgusting and dastardly piece of legislation (section 3116, page 114 of the present legislation).  What do you think that says about this plan?
 
If people, regardless of political affiliation, aren’t willing to draw a line in the sand now, than when?  When the last vestige of your liberty is gone?  That will be too late. 
 
It’s time to face tyranny now!
