You can't handle the truth!

Back in March of this year, when Rick Santorum was still alive in the primaries, I blogged about the bias of the media. Today, the things being propagated by the left as a whole is just plain infuriating. There is a simple answer to all this.  However, the caveat, there is no easy way to overcome this debacle.  The truth is that any conservative American is going to have to make some very difficult choices for any real change.

The best way to victory in America is to put your money where your mouth is.  Most of the middle class America that I know, don't really understand this concept. Those that do must face the reality of how difficult this choice becomes. Most of us don't have "time" to deal with the raging National issues, while we struggle to put out the every day fires in our own lives.  The bills, the rising cost of everything from gas to groceries. Worrying about layoffs, the economy, the deficit and the foreign issues that could literally blow up over night.  To much uncertainty.

Most Americans main source of news information is through television and their friends.  This is a problem because neither are very accurate.  It takes to much time to wade though the BS.  Who really wants to "google" every statement made in the "news", to verify the source and the context?  Much less to investigate further documentation.  It is too expensive in our daily "opportunity cost", what are we willing to give up to accomplish and find the "truth" we need?

"Vote with your dollars", sounds easy.  It is not in reality.  For instance, I have had a yahoo email account for almost 15 years. While I despise yahoo and everything it stands for, I am still reluctant to change my email address.  My comfort zone is comfortable.  Who wants to pay more money for something made in America when we can go a block to Walmart and buy something at a fraction of the cost.  All of the "less" expensive options we have in our daily lives will eventually cost us much much more, perhaps America as we have known it.  This applies to the information we receive as well.  Cheap, easy to get, news and information is most likely "spun" to benefit the ideals of those publishing it.

The choice is ours America.  We get what we pay for, one way or another.  The truth is expensive, and I ask you?  Can you handle the truth?

Pawlenty of Shame!!!

Tim Pawlenty just bitch slapped all of us, especially the Republican party.  He tossed his credibility out the window. The former Minnesota Governor, and as of today, ex-chair of Romney's election campaign, took a job as CEO of "Financial Services Roundtable".  What does that mean and why does it piss me off? Well let me tell you.  This guy was a Republican presidential candidate. This guy, claimed to represent the blue collar "Sam's Club voter", the working class.  This guy, he spoke on all the evils of politics while pointing his finger at the Democrats.  This guy, he jumped ship from the Romney campaign during the final two months of this election. Why?  To take his new 1.8 million a year job.  In financial services...BANKING of all things....  Hello!!!!  No Honor, No ethics, great for him and his family, not so much anyone else or the ideals he spoke of.  What would have happened if we elected him President?  If he has no honor at this level, there would have been none at the next.

This is another reason we need to hold ALL politicians accountable.  The more I think about it the better a single term sounds.  We need to cut their pay and benefits.  This has gotten so far out of hand that it is going to take drastic measures to repair.   They work for us, they hold our check book.  Are you happy with the job your elected officials are doing?  Pawlenty got this job because the good people of Minnesota elected him to that office.  In that position, great offers come along that otherwise would not.  A president of a software company and a labor attorney from Eagan, Minnesota, would never end up on K Street in Washington D.C.


I am an Independent Conservative, and this kind of Bullshit is exactly what is wrong with politics.  You take Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, you know they are going to screw you because nothing they say ever makes sense.  I can live with that.  You take a guy like Pawlenty, this guy is a bigger pile of shit than Reid and Pelosi put together, throw in Barney Frank and it might be close.  When you profess you idealism and beliefs on a public forum, then a few months later you trample the very words you spoke, there is an inherent problem with that.  Beware of Karma Pawlenty, I for one hope it bites you square in the ASS.  I bet all of your political cronies would like to kick your lying ass.  Just wanted to say "thanks" for the black eye you gave to us conservatives as well.  Good luck with the Karma thing too!

Sad Times they are.....

I find it hard to fathom what has happened to America.  Just read a reprint article in "Pravda", it was an opinion piece.  It's a sad day when a Russian Op-Ed can point to how Marxism is devouring our country.  As much as I slammed Romney, I pray every day that this man can defeat BO.  This administration has lowered the American standard to the point where we're going to have to decide how much we're going to take.  I cannot fault BO with everything, our own complacency has certainly contributed to our situation, as so boldly pointed out by Stanislav Mishin in the "Pravda" piece. How stupid are we? I mean really? Has this joke of main stream media really brainwashed so many Americans? I do not understand how anyone with any reasonable intelligence can buy into what the media and this administration have to offer, absolute zero. The lies and cover up, over this latest foreign policy disaster which caused the death of four Americans, is outrageous! They do not have a viable plan, they have not had one in four years. The deficit is at 16 trillion and counting. Unemployment is at 8.1% or 11.2 depending on who's view you want to take. The economy, what economy? Foreign policy, a joke. There is big trouble brewing world wide, and I pray to God that we get divine intervention to keep a nuclear war from happening. Iran and Israel could be the place, or even China and Japan, God forbid that it be an Islamic terrorist setting one off. I hope that all Americans are concerned with the issues we face. Our appetite for entertainment and debauchery reminds me of another place at another time, the great Roman Empire. If you getting your information from only one or two sources, your uninformed. Get off the couch and examine what we have, and what we have to lose. There is a lot at stake for the future of our country. From Texas by

Letter to the "Houston Chronicle Viewpoint" - Which you will never see!

I want to preface this with, I really disagree with almost everything the Chronicle has ever published in it's editorial pages.  I also find it extremely funny, that in order to have my viewpoint published I must yield my name and location, and yet the Chronicle allows editorial writers to publish anonymously.  WTF?

This is my most recent email.

More Conservatism please.

Krugman, Pitts, PHK, AP, Reuters, Rick Casey, who fortunately retired, and most every other editor, etc...  I am so tired of reading all the BS you publish with such a liberal slant!  Rarely are any of them representative of my opinion, or beliefs.  I think the Chronicle owes it's readers more than a hand full of conservative columnist'.  It amazes me how you allow incendiary articles to continually be published with out EVER a conservative rebuttal.  Grow a set, Houston Chronicle, or really set yourself apart and have some ethics and start covering a conservative dissenting opinion.  With all the recent leadership changes I have read about, one would think you might figure it out!  It might even stop some of the bleeding.  By the way, Beverly McPhail should be tossed on top of the heap, her article on racism was laughable, people living in glass houses shouldn't be throwing stones.  KMLWA Ms. McPhail!

It doesn't take a wizard to notice how much the Chronicle has shrunk in both accuracy and physical size over the past few years.  I thought with the demotion of Jack Sweeney, we might see some interesting changes.  Has not happened.  Perhaps the downward spiral will continue.  I will continue to read this liberal drivel until it goes or I go, whichever occurs first.  But, I'm betting I will be around long after it's gone, and that is not good speak of a Newspaper.  I cannot believe I left out E.J. Dionne, I can hear him sucking from here.

The Resilience of the Right!

After trying to grind my way through six year old pig slop, in the form of "The Good Fight', by Peter Beinart, I had to walk away.The book is subtitled "Why Liberals-and Only Liberals- Can Win the War on Terror and Make America Great Again".  After Pres. BO's three years in office, he has pretty much refuted all of the points Beinart was trying to establish, with his apologies, inaction and general discourse.  Once again, it will be up to the "Right", to correct the "Misadventures of Barak "Barry Soetoro" Obama" and the lunatic Left.  We can only hope that the comedy of politics, or what is known as the Republican primaries, will right itself and allow independent conservatives to vote BO out on his ass.  

If I learned anything in the book, it was that if left alone and unattended long enough, the Left will surely eat there own.  They have done it time and time again, and yes, Beinart points to a few examples.  Unfortunately with the times being what they are, we do not have the luxury of waiting for the Left to implode.  True, the signs are there, but they may be a bit premature and only driven by the fact that this is an election year.  But trust me, there are many on the Left who are very unhappy with Pres. BO.  Not to mention most of America.

If you read independent blogs from both sides, the picture is much more clear.  You will not find the rabid follower of BO in as great a number as the National Media, I don't pretend that they do not exist, because certainly there are those as well.  What you will find are supporters of BO that have doubts, the ones that are able to think rationally.  Most of those that still blindly support him, have remained, only because they have taken "ownership of his administration's failures, and they take it personal.  I have friends that are Liberals, before BO was elected they were compelled to attack me for the failings of the Bush administration.  Now, most have regretted their decision, while the others no longer speak to me.

What does any of this have to do with anything?  I am talking about the fringe voters.  The ones who put BO in office, not the mainstream.  Who are these people?  They are the ones that most people never see or think about, the fuel for America's engine.  The poor, the blue collar, the immigrants and the elderly.  The ones who must face the painful hardships on a daily basis, that this administration has inflicted upon us all.  Starting with unemployment and it goes down hill fast from there.  The price of gas, the price of insurance, the price of food and housing.  The left might still blame it on Bush, but the people are not still buying it.  The Fairy tale is about over, the shit has hit the fan and reality is right in our face, there is No Santa Clause!

This election is Good vs Evil, while the right certainly has problems, fundamentally it has always served the best interest of all Americans, something that cannot be said of the left.  Many people do not realize the sad history of Democrats and the left in general, on racism and communism, how about women's rights?  Woodrow Wilson, a Democrat and the president who was opposed to women's right to vote, capitulated in 1918 and in 1919, the 19th. amendment passes.  The list goes on and on and on.  When the lies and the smoke clears, most people realize that the Left can never deliver on their promises.  You don't get anything for free in life, someone has to pay.  Unfortunately, the Left has yet to realize that simple fact.

The Right is only handed defeat when the wheel comes off the track.  What I mean by this, is that in the real world, bad things happen.  It is not always the fault of either party when these things occur. However, I feel  America always seems to prosper under conservative leadership, not so with liberal. Disagree with me, fine.  All I ask is you do a little research, study a little history, and then prove me wrong.

Harvard Law School Pride....maybe not.

Maybe it's just me and my southern upbringing. If I were a graduate of Harvard Law School I would have some major issues with the way things are going. I grew up hearing about how a Harvard education was one of the best that money could buy. From what I have seen and read lately, there has been nothing that would make me proud to be an alumni. 

The same can be said for Texas A&M and UT for their little scrum over UT's sports channel, but the Aggies who place so much pride on "tradition", refused to schedule more competition with the Horns, that cost them credibility, a lot of credibility.  I digress, it seems to me while the list of Harvard alumni is eclectic, some real idiots managed to graduate.  After reading over that list, there should be a law that a Harvard grad is ineligible for presidency.  I'm even suggesting that I would bet money there are a few out there with only their GED, that could run circles around some of these people, and yes, I know George Bush graduated from Harvard Business.  

I find it funny that Hillary Clinton ( a Yale Law grad) would compare the GOP to middle eastern religious extremist, when clearly it's her own party that shares a much closer comparison.  That said,  I am speaking to the Bell and Obama video. Since the video emerged, all I have noticed is how far left, and how radical, all of these involved Harvard grads are. Then the amount of spin to try and cover for Obama. The lies that the left are willing to stoop to, are becoming laughable. So much so, on Bell's Critical Race Theory. Wikipedia withdrew their definition while it under went verification after Soledad O'Brian used it's definition, only to be bitch slapped from Brietbart.com's Joel Pollak.

It looks like this new “vetting” by conservative websites, individuals and social networks is gonna bite the left in the ass. If your not aware, there is a growing campaign. It seems that with the passing of Andrew Breitbart, there has been a call to arms by many social conservatives and bloggers. The slogan “ I am Breitbart” is getting more and more traction as each day passes. Perhaps much of this can be attributed to the many eggs the left has has dropped recently.  You will also notice the rage with which they respond. 

Speaking of, Obama continues to drop in the polls, even in some of the Democrat controlled polls such as the PPP. Did you find it interesting that David Axelrod canceled a scheduled appearance on Bill Maher's “Real Time”, after the blow back from Maher's statements about Sarah Palin and the 1 million dollar campaign donation. Obama is trying to distance himself “after the fact”. Obama has consistently said one thing today, and then turn around and done the opposite the next day.

It still surprises me that the only press to to address the Obama administration view, that the assassination of an American citizen is OK, is Leonard Pitts. A columnist for the Miami Herald. Wonder what would have happened if Bush would have tried that tact? At least Pitts, a racist, lefty in my opinion, was against the decision of the administration. I have to give him kudos on today's article because I have NO problem bashing him for his racism. If your jaw has dropped, I am referring to the “death by drone” assassination of An-war al-Awlaki. Was he a good guy? No.  Still, he was an American citizen and still entitled to his constitutional rights.  Maybe there is hope for Pitts yet.

An observation, eventually there will be “mainstream” attention to the al-Awlaki murder. Think of what it opens the door to. One power I hope the left never has at it's discretion, much less the far right, is the power to murder with out due process.  Then again, we know how Obama feels about the constitution.

We've made it to that time in an election year when my friends on the left start to distance themselves from me.  Not all but many.  It came earlier this year and perhaps even bloodier, oh well, the gloves are off until November, so be ready.

Gonna end with kudos to Joel Pollak, very nice job on O'Brian.

I am Breitbart!

The Left, No sign of Intelligent Life

Awhile back on this blog I stated that I was going to try and be a bit less radical about the ignorance of the left.  What was I thinking?  In an election year when all the trolls of idiocy come crawling out!  Yep, was a very stupid mistake on my part and I admit it.

What brings this about, you may ask.  I have become an information and news junkie or maybe junk newsie because that is all that is being reported.  Maybe it was Ana Marie Cox that triggered it with her "Guardian" piece and the idiocy I read there.  I really don't know, can't say.  Maybe it was the lack of class on the left.  Maybe I set myself up for having unrealistic beliefs in things such as truth, ethics, morality and honesty.  I really thought that I couldn't be the only one that was sick and tired of pointing out all of the biased and one sided ways of the left., wrong again.  So, I just want to tell you about some of the idiocy I have heard lately from the left.

Constance Hilliard, professor of African Studies at North Texas State.  She said that the American soldier who murdered the 16 Afghans, committed this atrocity because of Rush Limbaugh.  You really want someone with this kind of thinking, teaching your children?  Not me, but then I am a conservative.

Ana Marie Cox, a liberal blogger who once had her life saved (literally) by Greta Van Sustreren.  She states that her "Liberalism" has strengthened based on the  Public Policy Polling (PPP).  This organization is ran by Dean Debnam, a Democrat and political strategist.  Blind following the blind.  NOT to say that the poll results are incorrect, but I think you should know the political ideals in order to "weigh" your opinion of the source in order to make an informed decision.

Soledad O'Brian, CNN pundit.  Just google the video of her interview with Joel Pollak of Briebart.com.

Associated Press (AP), failed to mention that in February 2012, the US deficit reached it's highest point ever of $232 Billion under the Obama administration.

Steven Chu, Energy secretary in the Obama administration.  While I give him a "Duh" for reversing course on fuel prices, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know Chu was wrong in the first place.

President BO, where do I start?  

Lake County Fla. Democratic Party, these knuckleheads actually raised a flag with President BO's image in place of the "stars", and the flag was made in China.  Thanks to local veterans the flag was removed.

Hillary Clinton, Secretary of State in the Obama administration.  Compared the GOP to religious extremists in the middle east.

These are some of our leaders in government, media and education.  It scares the hell out of me to realize these people are in charge.  I could go on and on with this but frankly, I'm bored.  It's become common place for this BS.

I also have some good news, Rick Santorum is making headway in the GOP primaries.  Hopefully he will continue on this track, I would not have been happy to vote for Romney.  While I don't agree with Santorum on all of his views, I do support the majority.

What a crazy world we live in!
