"It's hideous what liberalism does to the human spirit, it attempts to destroy it, even to the point of making enemies out of people who have achieved something, out of people who have become successful... Conservatism, on the other hand, doesn't seek to control anybody. Conservatism seeks to liberate. Conservatism believes that the human being, the United States of America citizen, is capable of anything he or she wants. Conservatism believes in the goodness and the greatness and the potential... in every human being and wants to get as much out of the way in terms of obstacles as possible. Conservatism wants to motivate those people. Conservatism wants to inspire those people. Conservatism wants happy, content people pursuing life and liberty. Conservatism believes that the greatest country we can have is where there is as much freedom as possible, as defined by the founding documents of this country when there is as little government as necessary, and when people are free to utilize their own desires and their ambitions."

Barack Obama's Pastor, Role Model and Spiritual Advisor in his Own Words

(warning: this will anger you)

Big Jackass Award

This week's Big Jackass award goes to Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Jr. of Trinity United Church of Christ of Chicago. Wright is the pastor who Barack Obama goes to for spiritual and political guidance. Obama calls Rev. Wright his "spiritual mentor and role model."

In December, Wright said, "Barack knows what it means living in a country and a culture that is controlled by rich white people. Hillary would never know that. Hillary ain't never been called a nigger."

In January, he said, "Hillary is married to Bill and Bill has been good to us. No he ain't! Bill did us, just like he did Monica Lewinsky. He was riding dirty."

Obama's pastor goes on to say that blacks should not sing "God Bless America", but "God DAMN America." Furthermore, he insists that the United States brought on the attacks of 9/11 with its own "terrorism."

Some role model.

So this is just a taste of the racism and anti-Americanism that Barack Obama's spiritual leader spews in his sermons. Aside from the atrocious grammar and piss-poor grasp of proper English, Obama's pastor and good friend is a racist bigot who obviously fails to grasp the fundamental teachings of Christianity. Rather, he pushes an agenda that is anti-white and anti-American. For its part, the Obama campaign says Barack disagrees with SOME of Rev. Wright's positions.

This sort of preaching should draw SERIOUS questions to the true agenda and nature of Barack Obama's personality. There is much, much more to the well-dressed and well-spoken half Muslim Senator from Chicago than meets the eye. Obama has been very skilled at hiding from us the things that mirror who he truly is. But finally the smoke is beginning to clear. In the end, America will find that Barack Obama is a political hack and a snake-oil salesman who

is no more fit to lead this country than my cat!

"There's one last problem with Clinton's positioning as the experienced candidate in the race. She is not all that experienced. Last week, the Clinton campaign belched out an argument that felt hackneyed when used by Jimmy Carter and Walter Mondale. A Clinton TV ad asks voters which candidate they'd want in the White House at 3 a.m. when a crisis erupts. The tested-and-ready Clinton is supposed to be the obvious answer. But obvious to whom? How has she been tested? Such is the Clinton campaign's overweening sense of entitlement that when a reporter asked what crises Hillary has actually handled, the Clintonites had no answer at the ready. Again, miracles happen, and Hillary may win. But come the fall, no matter who the Democratic nominee is, Democrats won't be pleased that Hillary raised the who-should-take-the-call question with John McCain in the race."

Michelle Obama -- Wake The Hell Up!

"We're a divided country, we're a country that is just downright mean. We're a nation of cynics, sloths and complacents. We have become a nation of struggling folks who are barely making it every day. Folks are just jammed up and it's gotten worse over my lifetime. And doggone it, I'm young. Forty-four!"

That's yet another fine example of liberal, "Blame America" philosophy. It's odd how Michelle Obama opines that things have "gotten worse" in America over her lifetime. Forty-four years ago, folks would be taking shots at a black man so close to winning his party's Presidential nomination. Her rhetoric is even more shocking given that the Obamas are a stunning embodiment of the American dream. Both Barack and Michelle have law degrees from Harvard. The couple's combined salaries in 2006 were more than $430,000. Barack earned an additional $551,000 in book royalties and the family lives in a $1.6 million home in Chicago. Sure Michelle, things have gotten worse in your lifetime.

And what about America being 'downright mean.'? Really? The United States donates more money to fight AIDS in Africa than all other nations combined. The United States donated more money to tsunami victims in S. Asia than all other nations combined... and most of that was private donations. The United States has sacrificed thousands of her nation's best to liberate the Iraqi people from a vicious, murderous tyrant while the rest of the world did nothing. Blacks won equal rights protection under the law during Michelle's lifetime. Organized racism and discrimination is NOTHING compared to what it used to be and what's left of it is kept alive by only a few nutjobs and extortionists (Jesse Hi-Jackson).

Yes, Michelle Obama, America is so bad and so mean. That probably explains why each year thousands of Mexicans stomp through the Arizona desert, risking their lives to live in a country that is so bad. I'm sure it also explains why so many Cubans each year attempt to cross open ocean in INNER TUBES to escape Communism for freedom here in America.

America is the last, best hope for freedom and liberty. And anyone who sees it different, including the Obamas, should try living in tyranny like so many others throughout the world.

Penn & Teller on the 2nd Amendment

Oh, and in case you didn't know, Barack Hussein Obama (Oh dear God, I must be a racist for using his full name) and Hillary Clinton are BOTH gun grabbers!!

Notable Quote

"Hillary Clinton told The New York Times recently, 'I want to get back to the appropriate balance of power between government and the market... You try to find common ground, insofar as possible. But if you really believe you have to manage the economy, you have to stake a lot of your presidency on it.' Notice that she equates government power and market power. That is absurd. 'Power' in a free market means success at creating goods and services that your fellow human beings voluntarily choose to buy. Government power is force: the ability to fine and imprison people. Politicians who talk about managing the economy ignore the fact that, strictly speaking, there is no economy. There are only people producing, buying and selling goods and services. Keep that in mind, and one realizes that government action more often than not interferes with the productive activities that benefit everyone... The economy is far too complex for any president-no matter how smart-to manage. How can politicians and bureaucrats possibly know what hundreds of millions of individuals know, want and aspire to? How can government employees fathom what trade-offs to make in a world of scarce resources? They can't. That's why free people are more prosperous than unfree people. Presidential candidates should promise to keep their hands off the economy."

Father-Daughter Talk:

A young woman was about to finish her first year of college. Like so many others her age, she considered herself to be a very liberal Democrat, and among other liberal ideals, was very much in favor of higher taxes to support more government programs, in other words....

REDISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH.

She was deeply ashamed that her father was a rather staunch Republican, a feeling she openly expressed. Based on the lectures that she had participated in, and the occasional chat with a professor, she felt that her father had for years harbored an evil, selfish desire to keep what he thought should be his.

One day she was challenging her father on his opposition to higher taxes on the rich and the need for more government programs. The self-professed objectivity proclaimed by her professors had to be the truth and she indicated so to her father. He responded by asking how she was doing in school.

Taken aback, she answered rather haughtily that she had a 4.0 GPA, and let him know that it was tough to maintain, insisting that she was taking a very difficult course load and was constantly studying, which left her no time to go out and party like other people she knew. She didn't even have time for a boyfriend, and didn't really have many college friends because she spent all her time studying.

Her father listened and then asked, "How is your friend Audrey doing?" She replied, "Audrey is barely getting by. All she takes are easy classes, she never studies and she barely has a 2.0 GPA. She is so popular on campus - college for her is a blast. She's always invited to all the parties, and lots of times she doesn't even show up for classes because she's too hung over."

Her wise father asked his daughter, "Why don't you go to the Dean's office and ask him to deduct a 1.0 off your GPA and give it to your friend who only has a 2.0. That way you will both have a 3.0 GPA and certainly that would be a fair and equal distribution of GPA."

The daughter, visibly shocked by her father's suggestion, angrily fired back, "That's a crazy idea, how would that be fair! I've worked really hard for my grades! I've invested a lot of time, and a lot of hard work! Audrey has done next to nothing toward her degree. She played while I worked my tail off!"

The father slowly smiled, winked and said gently, "Welcome to the Republican party."

Why "Gun Control" is Bullshit!
