Political

Conservatism Vs. Liberalism

Vilani — Sat, 07 Jun 2008 16:28:47 -0400

There is a battle raging in our country and it is not being fought by politicians.

It is being fought by us, the people.

I hear day in and day out, people lamenting on the direction America is headed and I hear complaint after complaint about the "crooked politicians" that are in Washington.

How did they get there? Are they unlike us? What would we do if we were there?

Questions, questions and more questions.

We, the people, elected them, sad but true.

Democrat, Republican, Conservative and Liberal. Most hear these terms but are still not quite sure what they mean.

The liberal left has changed the name of the Democrat Party to the "Democratic" party, hoping to soften their image up some by invoking some lofty idea that the Democrat Party is actually fighting for the "little man".

I have a bit of news for my fellow Americans, We do not live in a democracy, we live in a "Republic". If we lived in a democracy,no one would do any of the work, pay taxes or get free healthcare because the masses would prefer to live under the thumb of an opressive ruler rather than take responsibility of their own direction.

In a republic, we elect a representative to "represent" us in Washington. After all of the corruption, loan sharking and other back door deals that all of our fine elected "representatives" have been party to, we still have this insane notion that theyare actually doing what they said they would do if elected.

It was once said "Power corrupts, Absolute power corrupts absolutely", truth does hurt.

The monikers "Democrat" and "Republican" explained in short...

Democrat = The supposed will of the people.

Republican = The preservation of the ideology of the Founding Fathers.

The monikers "Conservatism" and "Liberalism" explained in short...

Liberalism = Anything goes, the suppression of theological ideology and the suppression of free speech.

Conservatism = The strict conservation of the most basic tenets of the Constitution and the acknowledgement of GOD as the CREATOR as our Founding Fathers did.

Liberals believe that there are grey lines everywhere and that everyone is a potential victim.
Liberals believe in Abortion, Gay Marriage and the Hoax that is Global Warming (now called Climate Change). They also believe that government is the best solution to any problem.

Our "Democrat Presidential Candidate" BHO, would like to pull out of the War in Iraq immediately, leaving millions of Iraqis to die needlessly in the bloodbath to follow our departure(not unlike the Killing Fields of Cambodia).

He will talk to known terrorist leaders of Communist and Socialist countries without pre-conditions. He will attempt to reverse the many tax cuts that Bush instituted in his first year as President.

He will also attempt to institute some sort of nationalized healthcare system. Ask a vet at the VA how well socialized healthcare works for them.

The basic fundamentals of Liberalism is a direct attack on the progress of mankind.

Conservatism, I think, is quite misunderstood.

People view Conservatism with the understanding that it is the support of the status quo. That couldn't be further from the truth.

The basic fundamentals of the modern Conservative movement is the upholding of the Constitution and the basic freedoms that it affords us.

Freedoms of religion, speech and the right to bear arms are all coveted freedoms. Without these rights, we would not be the country we are today.

We have spawned an entire generation that believe that America is the root cause of all the evil in the world today.

I would not know where to begin to describe what the world would be like without us.

An Education Lesson

Vilani — Wed, 21 May 2008 08:19:55 -0400

I will begin this with an analogy. You have the Blind Shepherd, The Wolf and the Wolf in Sheep Clothing.

The Blind Shepherd leads the masses over the steep precipice speaking words like Hope and Change. He has oratory skills that many envy but his words are hollow and meaningless. He wants to talk to people who won’t listen and those who would like to kill us or destroy our way of life. He also would like the United States to pay (to parties unknown) a huge tax that offsets our Global Warming impact.

The Wolf is the sly one. She has many friends and twice as many enemies. She wants to take the profits of companies and put those funds into a government controlled agency that would supposedly seek out new forms of energy. She wants to create a national retirement fund seeded with monies brought in from raised taxes. She also wants to create a government controlled bureaucracy that regulates people’s healthcare, how much it costs and who does it.

The Wolf in Sheep Clothing is the one we really need to watch. This one favors amnesty, global warming, and stepping over the aisle to support other liberal ideas. He calls himself a Conservative but isn’t.

Have you watched the battles on the news enough to know who is who?

You have to realize what these people stand for. How would you like to be in a business for profit and have the government step in and tell you how much you should charge for your services or who you can serve. Would you like that same government to tax you out of business or to *take* your profits? How would you feel if you went to college for all those years and then the government will tell you that you can’t charge what you think your time or efforts are worth?

Conservatism is the idea of smaller government, lower taxes and the security of our nation. The pursuit of happiness and the right to free speech. The Democommunists want to bring back the “Fairness Doctrine” which is the rule that in order for radio or television to support one side, they are forced to give the opposite views equal time. This equals the government telling radio and television what they can and can’t air. This is different than vulgarity or indecency. The free exchange of ideas part of the Constitution is not a rule that the government can force a private business to do something that might even be in direct conflict of their own beliefs.

The Democommunists believe that Mankind is DIRECTLY at fault for global warming. I wonder if they have given any thought to the sun, more sunspots = more heat, less sunspots = less heat.

The Democommunists believe that the United States is the cause of all genocide and killing all over the planet. They also believe that we are RAPING the world of all its precious resources, leaving none for the next generation.

I am one that believes that we are, in fact, living in the last days. I’m having a real difficulty in believing that we puny humans can destroy something that GOD created. We think so highly of ourselves that we seem to have forgotten who is really in charge.

Vanity is our downfall. We have strayed far from the path. Our country was founded by White, Landowning Slaveholders and we have the audacity to claim superiority.

We have a responsibility to uphold the Constitution. If we don’t do that, I’m certain the lovely Islamofascists would enjoy our amber waves of grain.

Study your options and be informed, don’t fall victim to the empty platitudes of change and hope. Don’t be fooled by a person who calls himself one thing and is actually another. Be wary of anyone who says they would like to take the profits of a private business and use it for the greater good. Any government who uses the “for the greater good” line, you should immediately see what the fight for the greater good gets the people in China, Venezuela, Cuba or any of the other Communistic/Socialist countries.

Capitalism is what drives our country. It drives our economy. It drives everything. If you aren’t able to enjoy the fruits of your labor, why would you want to sweat for anything?

If you tax the companies, they will raise prices to maintain their bottom line. Prices go up, people will buy less. People buy less, companies have to downgrade their operations which in turn, run the risk of layoffs and worse, the company could go out of business. If that happens, then the city the company was located in will lose the tax income that the company was paying them.

Do you see the line? Lower taxes, lower government spending is how you drive the economy. Not raising taxes. Why do you think companies are flooding out of our country and going to places like China? It’s cheaper to operate there.

If you still don’t see what is happening, then you are perfect fodder for the Democommunists.

Think about what you see and hear.

CHRIST THE CONTRARIAN

CHRIST

THE

CONTRARIAN

Late last year, as the felicitous fears and fretful tears were shed and spread by the unholy Hoaxters of the Global Warming kind, I warned the world that it is quite possible that God was a ‘Contrarian’ who was still in control of the universe and took great pleasure in His Contrarian control of the Wuthering winds of the world and the weather. The ensuing weather soon brought the worst snow storm in one hundred years to the Chinese mainland with millions left cold and hungry in its wake. This same cold and clammy hand of Fate soon brought “The worst snow storm to the United States since l978” one weatherbabe recently reported.

Comments regarding these adverse weather events are scarce, as the weather has not matched the Global Warmist menu for Misery. After much deliberation we will soon learn this adverse weather was itself the result of Global Warming or perhaps it was one last snowy snowball salvo by Bush.

The dyslexic dialogue of the Left always provides and controls the talking points for the Word Warriors of the Right. This adverse weather was a talking point sent by God and I have not heard one Right Wing Word Warrior discuss this uniquely designed Devine phenomenon!

POLITICAL SCANDAL OF ENERGY AND OIL

The Liberator — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 12:16:36 -0500

POLITICAL SCANDAL

ENERGY AND OIL

I have long been intrigued by the energy that comes from oil. Oil is to a nation what food and fiber are to the human body. When children are denied food or chained to a bed we call it child abuse. When our politicians fail in their responsibility to provide adequate fuel for the economy we are told they have “Environmental concerns.” Energy is the passport to prosperity, fuel for the economy and national defense.

In January 04 my wife and I had the unexpected pleasure of being invited into the home of America’s first lady land man who had earned no small reputation in the oil industry. In due time I mentioned that “We were spending 2 billion annually trying to develop hydrogen fuel and 3.6 billion to reduce pollution from coal and that 5.6 billion would drill several thousand oil wells. Think what that would do for our economy, steel and trucking industries.”

Our flamboyant hostess laughingly replied, “You are exactly right but it will never happen in our lifetime.” When pushed for an answer I was told “It was all political.” Later it was further defined as lobbyist and environmentalist. As we proceed we will see beyond doubt or reason that our nation is being held hostage because our political leaders are more interested in their own vested environment at the public trough than the welfare of our nation.

In June 1975 I visited in the Washington office of Congressman George Mahon of Lubbock, Texas. Mr. Mahon was the chairman of the powerful Ways and Means Committee who just that week had delivered a “State of Energy” address to both houses of Congress. Mr. Mahon was extremely angry as he said “The congressmen from the northeast could care less about energy even though they pay less than we pay in Texas where it was produced.” It is interesting to note recent reports show gasoline can be bought in New Jersey cheaper than in Texas with no inconvenience that comes with drilling and refining and cluttering the landscape with drilling rigs and oil tanks.

Further idiotological environmental evidence was seen in the mid-nineties when a significant oil discovery was made close to Alamogordo, N.M. It was estimated to have a value of six hundred millions of dollars which would have been a significant boost to the economy of that area. Drilling for oil was denied because a small herd of he-goats crossed this area on the way to their mating grounds. It should be noted that he-goats, minnows, and reindeer always take precedence over the economy.

The most egregious and subversive blow to the economy of the United States in terms of catastrophic and strategic impact came at the hands of President Bill Clinton. The covert action of Mr. Clinton involved the executive order that set aside the 1.7 million acre Grand Staircase-Escalade National Monument in Utah in October of 1996. Included in this was the Kaiporowits Plateau coal and mineral find that was estimated by the New York Times to have a coal deposit that exceeded one trillion dollars in value as well as many millions of barrels of oil and rich deposits of other minerals. This production could have been brought online immediately with great financial benefit to our nations’ economy.

This vast source of energy would have brought hundreds of billions of dollars to our economy but was put off limits to American economic interests to protect the benefactors of the Democratic Party. The Lippo Group of communist descent owned and operated the only other coal mine in the world with valuable low sulfur content and this new discovery would be competitive to these special foreign friends and democratic contributors.

To gain further insight to the exploitation of energy we would do well to look at the record of the Carter administration and its insatiable appetite for taxing both the oil and gas industries to the tune of 5% of all oil and gas production. It was labeled a “Windfall profit tax.” Indeed it is a windfall but not for the property owners as the name implies but for the out-stretched hands of the greedy politicians. Instead, it is a windfall for the government as they have no investment in locating or producing the oil or gas and yet their grimy hands are waiting for the first 5% of the energy produced. When we speak of greedy oil companies it is worthy of note the government takes its 5% before the risk takers receive one cent on their investment. This is only the beginning of the fine art of taxation.

It is again worthy of note that we give no thanks to the producers of the energy that run the economy but instead blame them for the high priced privilege to use their precious products. Let there be no mistake, both the scarcity and high cost of energy are the direct result of a conspiracy to defraud our citizens and aid our enemy by not providing adequate supplies for our domestic needs.

For a detailed study of the work of the Doctors of Political Hypocrisy we would do well to visit the strip coal mines that are to be found in the midst of the beautiful east Texas tundra and are just a few bird miles from our home. Only recently did I drive close enough to actually behold the whole of the hole. Man-made mountains of mud and mire were visible as far as the eyes could see. The sounds of silence were deafening. Judging from the depths of devastation one would have expected to see hoards of huggers of trees protesting their demise. There was not one peep from a PETAfile to protest the loss of thousands of little creatures that had been displaced or killed. The habitats that had been home for countless generations of little creatures had been destroyed. I was profoundly shocked! Not one tree-hugger who dared to care was there.

I went home immediately and called a friend of thirty years who had retired from the Texas Railroad Commission. From his reference I learned that over two hundred and sixty thousand acres had been approved for strip coal mines in Texas alone as of 2004. It soon becomes quiet obvious there is a vast credibility gap when they show no concern for the creatures displaced by coal mining, and yet, when one speaks of drilling for oil in Alaska, the howls of foul can be heard round the world.

It soon becomes obvious the elite of the left do not care about the poor little animals or the Alaskan reindeer or the welfare of the blacks or anyone else. Neither do they care about the burden of high cost energy to the poor or the shortage of oil for our energy needs. Their sole goal is to hoodwink the dumb and the duped and take control.

At the peak of the last spike in oil prices I called my friend of fifty years who was the entrepreneurial godfather of city-sized truck stops that dotted the western states. He described our energy crisis as a “Scandal” and if the problem was not solved our nation would be bankrupt in ten years. The scandal of which I write is a work in progress by our enemies’ best friends who live, lie and die far to the left of right. It is quite obvious the “Environmental concerns” of which our congressmen speak are actually in regard to their continued presence at the public trough.

A recent check with a prominent west Texas retailer revealed a per gallon profit of 2 ½ to 11 cents depending on the grade. This is in contrast to the federal and state taxes of 38 cents per gallon. Combined profits of wholesalers and retailers pale in comparison to the obscene taxes levied by the politicians and the Jimmy Carter well-head tax.

We can only hope that our people wake up to the fact that the increasing cost of everything is due to the high cost of energy in raising crops and transporting them to market and this is brought about by irresponsible politicians that put their own welfare first. We would do well to send these parasitic politicians back home in a hurry.

On August 23, 2007 it was announced that the oil leases for acreage under the polar ice cap that were purchased by Shell Oil for approximately seventy three million dollars had been declared off limits for drilling for oil. It is of extreme interest that this act of treason was carried out by the judicial society of junkyard judges that act as co-conspirators to hijack our economy and national security.

The American Petroleum Institute showed a federal budget deficit of 102 billions of dollars in 2002 from imported oil which would be four to five hundred billion at today’s prices. This was written for the benefit of the dumb and the duped as they growl and howl of foul as gas prices continue to rise, and let the blame fall into the lap of the liberal left.

The final common sense summation for survival comes from the powerful word warrior General Jimmy Cash. “All Democrats, along with the Hollywood elite, are sending us headlong into defeat in the Middle East, which will give Iran dominance in the region. A lack of oil in the near future will be the final straw that dooms this Republic. However, if we refuse to let this happen and finally get serious about an energy self-sufficiency program, this can be avoided.”

“I am afraid, however, that we are going in the opposite direction. If we elect Hillary Clinton and a Democrat controlled congress, and they carry through with allowing Iran to take control of the Middle East, continue to refuse development of nuclear energy, refuse to allow for drilling for new oil, and continue to do nothing but oppose President Bush, it will be over in terms of what we view as the good life in the USA!!”

May the Lord God of Goodness save us from our enemy’s best friends here at home who

seem determined to destroy THE LAST GREAT HOPE OF THE WORLD!!

Come to our country illegally, and you'll get a snack pack!

helluvagoodlife — Mon, 13 Aug 2007 10:04:20 -0400

From the lips of Nancy Pelosi-
"Every day from the day they arrive and throughout the contributions they make to our country it is a blessing to us. Indeed, I think just about every person in this
House and in this room certainly at this time is a product of those aspirations and dreams."

Let's get real!-
This is what Nancy Pelosi stated attempting to pass a law in Washington to allow illegal immigrants aid with food stamp and medical benefits. If Illegal immigrants contribute so much to our good economy, then why is it the democrats feel that the illegals are in dire need of contributions? Every time in my life that I have been working I have never needed aid with food stamps. Besides, if Illegals went straight to work and contributed so much they would receive cash far faster than any hand outs that social service's could provide.

It gets deeper-
What we are talking about today is really about fairness, fairness to our newcomers as our ancestors had anticipated and hoped for fairness when they came here. We talk about family values. Nowhere are those family values stronger than the immigrant community. We talk about living the American dream and aspiring for a better life. Those people bring courage to our country. They are a constant source of invigoration to our society, and I hope that my colleagues will support the amendment of the gentleman from California (Mr. Baca). A family of four with two wage earners making the minimum wage are still eligible for Food Stamps because the minimum wage is so low.

A shenanigan is a deceitful confidence trick, or mischief causing discomfort or annoyance-

Let's get real! I know that my ancestors came to this country with hopes for a job and to add to a promising economy. And as we call know our forefathers had a strong work value and would sacrifice anything they had before asking for a handout. Nancy Pelosi's plea to help the "illegal contributors" is simply a liberal device to create more government. With the addition of welfare seeking immigrants, it allows the government expansion of socials services. Thus, creating more dependence on the government and more excuses for higher taxes, that you and I the working man will pay for.

http://www.crf-U.S.A.org/bria/bria14_3.html#welfare.

This article offers the history of welfare and the creation of it. If you read the article you will understand that welfare was the buffer that bounced America back in times of pain, hunger, and a loss of hope. That was also during the "great depression". This country in no way is in a depression era. I have yet to see anyone that is willing to work not have a job. While welfare had its place in history, we need to eliminate it and with that create a booming economy. The more people that work; the more people that vacation, shop, travel, eat at restaurants, and add to our economy thus creating a well needed boom. If people are dependent on welfare and food stamp programs, they simply lay around in their section 8 homes, and wait for their food stamp cards to recharge. It festers obesity, laziness, and drains social elements designed to help working natives. This also creates higher budget demand and a socialistic economy.

THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA THAT OUR FOREFATHERS CREATED WAS TO BE EARNED AND NOT RELIED ON FOR SOCIAL ELEMENTS AND HANDOUTS. ALL I CAN DO IS MAKE THIS CLAIM TO YOU NANCY PELOSI........SHENANIGANS!
