Our economy is terrible and not improving. You may be among the people who think that you are not affected. Let me tell you right now, you are affected. Your home value has dropped, gas prices have increased, your grocery bill is higher, it costs more to go to a movie our out to a restaurant. I could go on and on. So you see you are affected and not only you but your children and grandchildren. And you think you can do nothing about it.
You can do something about it. You can remove the worst president in the history of these United States. He is a major part of the problem. Every vote counts and your vote is needed. Make sure you are registered to vote and on super Tuesday, March 6th or the date of your primary, go to the poles and make your voice heard. We need all your votes. Don't give me petty excuses about why you can't or why you don't want to. We have the freedom in the United States to vote. Many other countries don't have that freedom. I value that freedom and I exercise that freedom, even if it means I need to get a bady sitter, or if I have to take off work early or if my car is broke down and I have to ask a friend to take me or take the bus or take a taxie. Don't give me these petty excuses. I don't want to hear them. What I want to hear is that you exercised your freedom to register to vote and that you went to the poles or are going to the poles to exercise that freedom again, to place your vote for the candidate that you think would make the best president; the candidate that would lead this country out of the social and economical whole that we have been plunged into. Make your vote count.

What is this about Obama apologizing for Quran burning? Sure, some soldiers will do things that they should not do. Their commanding officer or superior may want to have a talk with them. It may even justify a reprimand or KP duty, but the president of the United States, the commander and chief, does not need to make a formal apology for it. If he is going to do that then he will stay busy with apologies. He needs to grow a backbone and be strong for our country. We need a leadership of strength, not weakness.
And while I'm talking about it, what about that first Lady? In Feb. 2008 when it appeared that Obama was going to be the Democratic nominee, Michelle Obama said, "for the first time in my adult life I am proud of my country". This says to us that before this time she was not proud of her country, the United States. Are there really people who live here that are not proud of this country? There may be some who take it for granted because they haven't experienced what it is like to live in some of the other countries of the world. I'm not a world traveler but I have been to some southeast asia countries and believe you me, I much prefer the United States. I am proud of my country and I would hope that you would be too, even if you were not born in the United States like many people I know.

Arizona is cotinuing to fight to keep Obama off the ballots in their state. Now they are working on preventing the Obama contraception mandate from taking place. I believe this is a states rights issue and all the various states should be able to decide for themselves. People live in Florida because they like the Florida laws. People live in California because they like California laws. You have the freedom to move to whichever state you prefer. Where do you move to when you don't like the Federal laws?

Excuse Me Sir, You Can Only Speak Freely Elsewhere, Not Here
When our Founding Fathers wrote the US Constitution and Bill of Rights, they fully intended for them to stand as long as our nation stood. But as we see our nation crumbling around us, the Constitution and Bill of Rights are also crumbling to the ground.
In the latest instance, the historic city of Williamsburg, Virginia is seriously considering stripping Americans of their First Amendment right to the freedom of speech…read full story
