The next step to Gov't take-over

Posted Friday, October 22, 2010, at 11:03 AM

Why fight it? The government will take care of you.
Yep, this is it folks,just another brick in the wall of socialism. The firing of Juan Williams from NPR (National Public Radio) is the slap-in-your-face to all Americans, but more so to the faces of all journalist. This is a wound in the body and spirit of our free nation. For those of you who don't know the story; I will summarize for you.

Williams was being interviewed on the O'Reilly Factor. Now this is a show where guests are actually asked their opinions. Apparently, this is not the open forum that it has normally been in the past. Instead, when a respected journalist and book author responded with his own opinion-feelings, he found himself on the phone hearing that he was fired. Fired due to a comment that he made that was considered bigoted. He said, that when getting on a plane and seeing Muslims, he naturally feels alittle fear. What if these are terrorist meant to do harm? How many of us can truthfully say that you wouldn't feel some fear if boarding a plane with Muslims. It is a normal responce considering the Twin Tower attack and plane hi-jaciking. It is a valid fear and nobody should lose a job over it. Does that comment mean that he is a bigot or normal as you and I? After 10 years of service, and they have turned its back on him, digging up anything to discredit him. He was told that his opinion should not have been spoken aloud on a show where opinion is what they talk about. He was fired for one sentence. He also stated in an interview this morning on Fox news that the NPR had been angry that he was going on Fox news. He was always on Fox news as a liberal so that all sides are being reported. He was there to give the other side of the situations. That is fair and balanced. Just like when they have Geraldo reporting all the time. He is not a conservative, but a die-hard liberal. That is fair and balanced. But NPR gets federal funding so they are chasing after the Obama people and have to kiss the butts of everyone in his administration. Williams was too much of a liability to them.

This is actually scary stuff, people. Where is the right to free speech now? Think about this. What are the steps to over-hauling a government? Take over and monitor the media so that the public gets to hear exactly what they want. Control the media and you will reform the people. Lately, everyone is walking on egg-shells for fear of offending someone or race. This is going too far and every person should be talking about this and asking the tough questions. But there is too much fear within the media to ever be affective to the public. Media is paralyzed by fear that the next word will be the one that gets them fired. We can no longer trust what anyone writes if the writing is tainted with fear. The news will no longer be the news but an extension of the government. Another clear RED FLAG that people must recognize.

Wake up and smell the koolaid!Run from that fruitty smell of colored water! Or will you step in line and take a drink like the majority? Are you blindly following, trusting that the Koolaid is not spiked with anything? Drink it and see what happens next Will you go with the flow in order to protect your job? Many will have to due to an economy that is falling fast. There are many who will compromise their values, their beliefs and their own personal commitments or promises in order to keep their job. I understand that. I really do. How far will you go or how far from yourself will you go in order to keep your job? If the Boss tells you that you can't have an opinion or looks at your personal website and decides that they don't agree with you, then you will be faced with making a decision. Your Boss tells you that you are risking your job by voicing opinions and you are asked to stop telling your opinion; to stop writing or talking about your opinion anywhere because though you are not on the job, technically you are always a representative of the company. So you are asked not to offend anyone. You become the example. Will you decide to compromise and tell your Boss that you won't reveal your opinions? Will you change your website and no longer share photos and comments? Will you walk on eggshells every time a customer or co-worker asks your opinion?

Political correctness is so wide-spread that it ties the hands of journalist everywhere. You must weigh every word you say or write to be sure that it is not taken as a racial or a Hate-filled comment that will get you fired.

"Williams told Fox News that he was fired Wednesday by Ellen Weiss, NPR's vice president for news. He said Weiss told him he made a bigoted statement and crossed a line.

"I said, 'You mean I don't even get the chance to come in and we do this eyeball-to-eyeball, person-to-person, have a conversation? I've been there more than 10 years," Williams said. He said Weiss responded that "there's nothing you can say that would change my mind." (Fox News)

Here is your perfect example of what the government's far-reaching arm can do. Any business who receives Federal funding are now in ka-hoots with them. They are no longer free by no means. Instead they must monitor every piece of media to make sure that it fits in with the agenda of the Obama's, Scary, so very scary stuff. Halloween may produce some thrilling monsters and frightening haunted houses, but today, this government is far more threatening to me than any ghost or ghoul ever was.

KIM the firing of juan williams was not justified in anyway..........and he said nothing wrong......he expressed a personal feeling which i am sure a lot of people feel.....i would consider the feeling human........with that said the president has nothing to do with this and quite using any exscuse you can to attack him......that would be constructive......there have been so many bigoted things said and done here of late that the right just seems to ignore.......who are you going to blame that on????????????......i could make some suggestions but im not.........i dont know what those people were thinking about but whatever it was ..... mr weiss should see a shrink

The Muslims are given free reign in this country. WE can be the "Capitalists, "Infidels" and the "Great Satan"............but God help you if YOU state YOUR opinion.

Juan Williams' firing was straight out of the Communist Playbook.

"Ban free speech"--------except for OURS...that's how they think.

I heard bits and pieces of a newscast yesterday where a group of college kids were taken to a polling place where the only candidates on the ballot were Democrats. Indoctrination?

Back to Juan..........his firing was totally unjust. I mean, he often took the LIBERAL side of discussions, so I don't know what the problem was.

I don't think Obama had anything to do with it, but it wouldn't surprise me in the least, if one of his people DID.

They failed pretty miserably anyway though, because Juan recently signed a pretty lucrative contract with FOX (and they LOVE having him on their broadcats because he IS "fair and balanced.")

This will also turn people AGAINST NPR, and folks will band even tighter now around what is right--------------so in the end, the "left" has shot itself in the foot, kissing up to the Arabs like they do.

What we're seeing now is the last acts of desperation............we're down to 10 days........whatever it takes now...........and Juan himself said it best just yesterday......."it's because I'm a black man on this show, don't fit the stereotype of what I'm SUPPOSED to be."

To show what it has become, the libs have been sending their little "spies" WADING through the throngs and masses of the tea party rallies hoping to catch and photograph ANY sign that even ELUDES ro a "racial theme."

They find 1 or 2 in a crowd of 3,000, then they run to their liberal media and suddenly this becomes "representative of the entire movement."

Yeah, we're ALL freakin' RACISTS.

The libs know TWO tunes and that's all they know:

"Bush's Fault".............and number 2 on the charts.........."Because He's Black"

And now, because Juan Williams is a black man who says what he thinks, instead of what he is EXPECTED to say.........HE know longer has the right to HIS own opinion, and the first chance we get.............."

Liberals make me sick. I hope they get slammed on the 2nd, and slammed hard!

i dont know why the LIBS would need spies all you have to do is listen to the radio or watch tv......rand paul.....sharon angle.....carl palidino.....that doesnt mean that every one is racist but it does present a trend..........and should i say that i am not painting all with the same brush as some people are by saying all muslims are terrorist.......or have free reign etc.......i have lived and heard the same before and thats were the racist acussation come from.......sometimes i dont think people really think about what they are saying and how it is received in the broader picture.......and the thought goes its THEM today....who will it be tomorrow and if your a minority that thought is never far from the fore front.......and that also is part of what juan was saying.......and he had the guts to say it..... good for him..........and fox is far from fair or balanced but i hope he helps to make it that way.......and to imply that things dont happen to people because they are black,or hispanic or asian is to stick your head in the sand.......but its happening to THEM so we dont see it that way.........we are not always fair so please dont imply we are.....we still use the N word we still use the G word we still use the W word.the H word etc.......liberals make you sick......thats intresting......anything else???????????????

-- Posted by lamont on Sun, Oct 24, 2010, at 9:41 PM

Nope........nothin' else really, it'll all start to shake out 8 days from now.

FOX is a whole lot more fair & balanced than any OTHER network, though. Not only do they always have liberal guests on, to debate with, but Geraldo Rivera..........one of the most leftwing liberals in existence HAS HIS OWN SHOW on FOX! His OWN SHOW!

Do you suppose CNN would give Limbaugh his own spot? Would NBC give Michael Savage any weekly air time?

FOX is more than fair, which is why their ratings have soared beyond everyone else's over these past half-dozen years or so.

Yes........liberals make me sick, because it is their side that is continually selling this country out--------------but not much longer.

If it were up to me, they'd be deported along with the illegals.

-- Posted by bazookaman on Mon, Oct 25, 2010, at 6:22 AM

..............and Lamont...........when you come right down to it, and look at NPR, Juan Williams, a black guy, was tossed under the bus by some of his own people. I would think some of these liberals ought to make YOU sick as well.

You think these were CONSERVATIVES that had him canned?

-- Posted by bazookaman on Mon, Oct 25, 2010, at 6:27 AM

......he has publicly gone to bat for Obama time after time on FOX...........and THIS is "how well the left sticks by him"............the first time the man says something a whole lot lighter than MOST of us would have said........

..........he know longer "represents" what the "party of the people' dictate. All of a sudden, "he ain't one of us anymore------get rid of him."

You guys are being taken for granted and used in that party.

-- Posted by bazookaman on Mon, Oct 25, 2010, at 6:35 AM

PERSONALLY I DONT CARE WHAT THE PARTY SAYS.......BUT MUCH TO YOUR SERPRISE a lot of people would not consider revira a liberal......it is amazing to me that you can ignore some things and accuse people of other things........RUSH is as offensive as it gets.....but see he is not offenseive to you so it doesnt count......but he attacks the first lady and the kids and thats ok.........shes a liberal so shes fair game......i have a problem with that........i would be considered a liberal.....but i didnt make anyone sick when i spent 4.5 yrs in the jungle......that was ok......i guess the right would call that patriotic........as long as there children dont serve....the fact that they continue to vote to send jobs overseas thats ok too.......why did they vote to continue outsourcing???????.....again lets see both sidesJUAN DID NOT DESERVE WHAT HAPPENED......IF RUSH IS YOUR IDEA OF ANYTHING OTHER THAN A DRUG ADDICT IN THE PUBLIC EYE........THEN WHO IS BEING USED??????????

-- Posted by lamont on Mon, Oct 25, 2010, at 3:30 PM

As most of us know, the president.......ANY president, is always in the spotlight, where most of the media focus is, good or bad. Oh, he has a certain amount of veto power and once in awhile can sign executive orders, but under our system, it is the congress that does most of the good, and most of the crap.

Do you know that since 1950...........over these past 60 years..........SIXTY years.........the Democrats have controlled the Senate FORTY of those 60 years............and they have controlled the HOUSE FORTY-SIX of those 60 years.

During most of the time that you & I have been alive, the Democrats have been in control on Capitol Hill over TWO THIRDS of our lifetimes.

You've often mentioned that the laws still aren't equal for the minorities, and that we've been arrogant and wrong in our dealings with our own people as well as other countries.

Taxes, these political wars, and a myriad of other things, and you guys love to blame the right at every turn.

But for the most part in OUR lifetimes, it is the LEFT that has controlled the legislation and the checkbook for TWO THIRDS of the last 60 years.

"The fact that they continue to vote to send jobs overseas?"...........you're gonna have to ask "Prince Harry" and "Princess Nancy" about that one............you guys have run BOTH HOUSES over these past few years, with no GOP input that has counted for anything. BOTH houses AND the Oval. The "blame Bush" game doesn't fly anymore.

Rivera is a HARD liberal. Always HAS been. I don't know what Rush said about the first Lady, but the kids should be off-limits. Sarah Palin and HER kids have been under liberal attack, even YEARS after the election was over.

Michelle Obama offends a lot of people when she calls our country "hateful and arrogant" A lot of people don't like her trying to tell us all what to eat by wanting to BAN this, that and the other.

And when she gets on Air Force One, flies her kids to London for fish & chips on OUR tax bucks, when I have to drive my grand-daughters to MacDonald's in an old Volkswagen-------------then she and other libs stand before the cameras and preach to US about "living beyond our means"-------I have a problem with THAT.

And what goes around comes around-------fair and balanced............I have never been a Bush supporter, but I truly stand with them when they say........."We'll give your president the same respect you gave ours."

Your media hammered Bush 24/7, even to the point of that disrespectful "Countdown to leave office" calendar..........which would be both "disrespectful" and "RACIAL" as well, if somebody does one on Obama.

But the record speaks for itself man..........check it out for yourself.......ALL of you Dems out there...............40 out of 60 years of Senate control-----------46 out of 60 of House Control.......

You've have BOTH Houses at the same time during Bush's last 2 years------------and all THREE branches since Obama took over, yet STILL point fingers and fix blame. It's always "someone else's fault."

Limbaugh isn't perfect.....but hey, Clinton didn't "inhale" either, did he? The Treasury Chief is a tax cheat and Barney Frank is gay as well as crooked.

When was the last time a House Speaker needed a whole airliner with a $102,000 booze allotment?

But Limbaugh probably has the largest radio audience in the country, because he speaks the truth and backs it up with verifiable facts, which is why the left has a deep burning desire to shut down talk radio. Limbaugh's addiction to pain meds didn't make him a "crackhead" and he DID stop and apologize to the public, as his doctors got it ironed out.

Your "jungle time DOES make you "patriotic".

Keep in mind too, that The first advisors were sent over there in '61 by the Kennedy Administration, bungled BIG-TIME by LBJ, mis-handled by Nixon and finally ended under Ford.

Vietnam for US was started by a Democratic administration, as was Korea..............."Bush's War" started under RETALIATION for 9/11, although it TOO has been mis-handled and still is.

For the record, I was a "Republican's kid" and I had to serve over there too, buddy. In 68, LBJ and McNamara nearly sold us ALL out with that infamous "bombing halt"

Back home, the badly mishandled tragedies at Waco and Ruby Ridge ALSO came at the hands of yet ANOTHER Democratic Attorney General-----Janet Reno. All THOSE people didn't have to get slaughtered either. Today, Holder sells us out to the Mexicans and 11 other countries, but protects the rights of the 9/11 masterminds.

Truman, LBJ, McNamara, Clinton, Reno, Holder------liberals, ALL of 'em.

You guys talk about unnecessary and costly wars-----------how often has a REPUBLICAN started one on his own accord without any provacation?

Lord have mercy.............we're down to a week!

-- Posted by bazookaman on Mon, Oct 25, 2010, at 5:02 PM

I didn't duck Paladino, I condemned him about 3 blogs ago or so. I stand with Angle because Reid is a sellout and needs to go.

Yes...........that term "sellout" IS factual. When we open the doors and just let 'em in, while suing our own people who are being beaten, robbed and killed...........I'd call that "sellout."

When you standby and allow 11 OTHER South American countries to sue that same state for trying to protect what YOU are supposed to protect...........I'd call that "Sellout"

When you shutdown drilling, but give Brazil millions of taxpayer dollars to drill in the SAME PLACE that OUR guys CANNOT...........I'd call that "sellout."

When you do nothing about Iran and turn your back on our allies.........I'd call that "sellout"

When bad, unread bills have to be done with bribes behind closed doors because they cannot stand on their own merit..........that's a SELLOUT to every taxpayer in this country.

When a president and various members of his cabinet travel the globe and tell foreign countries what bad neighbors we are (forgetting of course all the aid we've given everybody and CONTINUE to give), when they call us arrogant and hateful.............I'd call that a "sellout."

When CITIZENS are posted out of their own National Parks that they PAY for, so the illegal smugglers and drug runners can live there...........well...........what would YOU call it?

Flag burning is ok, but Koran burning is not.

Mosque-building next to Ground Zero is ok, but the Pledge of Allegience is becoming "tabboo" in some places and some schools now.

Tell ME we ain't bein' sold out. Little by little, gradually enough so maybe----just maybe, it'll go un-noticed.

But it HAS been noticed, as a HOARD of them are gonna find out first hand on Tuesday.

The First Lady...........a lot of people look up to the First Lady, from schoolkids to ambassadors of other countries. I don't care WHO you are------from Eleanor Roosevelt to Laura Bush, you don't badmouth your own country and expect to keep the respect of the American people. Obama himself got off to a horrendous start with his early "apology tours".............there ARE people who love this country and do NOT take things like that with "a grain of salt."

When you BOW to someone, it's of private personal respect maybe...........when you're the PRESIDENT and bow to someone, it is the same thing as dipping the American Flag............and we dip OUR flag to NOBODY. You wanna talk about OFFENDING people---------except for the libs-NOBODY took THAT one lightly.

I PARTICULARLY had a problem with THAT one-----I didn't vote for him, but nonetheless, he got the job. Ok, done deal for 4 years. When you're out and about "Mr. President"-----to the world, you're representing the rest of us, and no American who calls himself one, bows to foreigners, obeys foreign commanders, kisses anybody's ring, their hand, or anything else!

He bows to the Arabs and gives the Queen of England an Ipod.

While some of his woes have been thrust upon him by a very inept Congress, Lamont, Obama HAS brought SOME of this heat on himself. And this "arrogance?"............most of it comes from D.C.

When you hold the country's number one job, your life is no longer your own..........every spotight, camera and microphone are around you, and with so much coverage----------you've got to do it cleaner than anyone else.

It goes with the job, and you knew it before you ran for it-------------or SHOULD have. Anything coming out of your mouth is a perpetual matter of record.

Like "Slick Willie"----------did he think he was gonna have Monica in the OVAL OFFICE, of all places, and NOODY was gonna find out about it??

The First Lady publicly said that some of the fast foods should be BANNED, Twinkies and etc should be BANNED from stores, and a few other items..............

Health concerns?.............ok, it is still the people's choices to make, not the government's.........and where was the "sermon" about lung cancer and other health hazards of cigarette smoking? Or was that one too close to home?

Correct. Palin is NOT the First Lady--------but she is still a wife and mother and as such, should be given the same respect as Michelle Obama, Laura Bush, or Sally Jones down the street.

And at the hands of the liberal media, Sarah Palin has had to endure a TRUCKLOAD more crap than the First Lady has............they made jokes about her daughter, they picked on her Downs-Syndrome child, and ONE of the filthy scumbags even moved-in next-door to her family so he could spy and write stories, if he could find any.

Come on, man............NOBODY deserves that. When ya think the left can't get any lower, they invariably prove you wrong.

Conservative women in general seem to be prime targets for your party. If Meg Whitman or anyone on HER staff had called Jerry Brown something of the magnitude that SHE was called----------man, are you kidding me?????? The ACLU would be trying to sue her out of existence, she would have been chastised in every major newspaper, late-nite tv, and on every major news network.

One of the main reasons the left despises FOX as it does, is that they don't just automatically GET a "free pass", as they always get from the others. FOX interviews aren't pre-scripted so you get the easy questions and always know up front what they are. They aren't designed to "sell" a candidate to the public. Katie Couric doesn't work there.

Juan Williams is a brilliant man with an opinion. He rarely agrees with O'Reilly or Hannity, but has a steady spot with this "evil, mean-spirited, unfair" network.

No, I'm afraid you're only HALF-right, brother................we're 2 old men who probably WON'T see it together, because if it comes to it, and there's no other way, I plan to die in the street with the barrel still hot.

But if ya think about it later, have a cool one for that "stubborn old bazookaman who refused to roll over."

In the meantime, I'm gonna play music Saturday Night-------------just like you.

Have a good one.

STOP........YOU WOULD BACK SOMEONE WHO WANTS TO PRIVATIZE SSI,AND THE VA.....MAKE ME UNDERSTAND.....forgeign commanders .....lets see we had that in ww1,korea.and in some cases vietnam,and every war we have ever been invoved in......any force that is multinational will have that or did you forget how that works.....we are not the worlds dictator.....therfore you have to deal with other nations as equals as has every president........sometimes you just dont make sense ..........and i guarantee you sarah palin has never heard the insults that the first lady has........and hers is before ,during and after.....and not one word of condemnation from the right..........get real.......again sarah palin is not the first lady.........now how do you sappose that we keep someone from sueing????????,,,,,,you can sue all you want that doesnt mean you get action........think will you......there has been more than enough name calling........and it continues..... i also would say based on your comment that you AGREE with miller and angle and paul and that goes to what i told you....... when a minority hears and sees the rehtoric i see discrimanation,segragation.and the tryanny of slavery........and before i see that happen i will put my trainig to good use and beleive me that is what we feel........and you just dont get that....... you dont hear yourself.......,rand paul scares me,sharon angel scares me,demint,mc connal.......these people want slaves......never again........and you cant denie the rehtoric........can you tell me what good it serves this nation?????????? I ASK BECAUSE I THINK YOU THINK ITS OK

-- Posted by lamont on Tue, Oct 26, 2010, at 11:11 PM

The Paul family scares MOST Democrats. They seek to "End The Fed", stop the spending and clean the rats out of Washington.

It's equal-------our side gets no condemnation from the LEFT when WE are attacked, either........did ya miss it yesterday?............Joy Bahar on the view? Screaming the "B" word on national TV against Sharon Angle because of her expose' on Reid's support for the illegals. She & Jerry Brown must Email each other. The Dems are a class act, and they're showing panic now with only 6 to go.

The only "slaves" we would ever see again, would have been every citizen in this country, if we don't get this "takeover government" out of our lives, and we're gonna start doing that shortly.

How do we keep someone from sueing? In Holder's case, FIRST, we vote his party out of power, and then the NEW controlling power HELPS its own states instead of prosecuting them.

Eric Holder should be tried for treason..........it won't happen, of course, because they need the illegal votes.

And folks--------chastise me if I'm wrong about this (and I sincerely hope I am)-----------but if the Dems lose enough seats Tuesday, and for SURE....if they happen to lose both houses, there WILL be an "amnesty for all" shoved through before they have to pack up and leave, to help shore Obama up for 2012, because he'll need every illegal vote he can get in a re-election bid.

Holder isn't suing Arizona out of some kind of "compassion" for the rights of these "poor down-trodden immigrants." If and after he gets what he needs, he'll throw 'em under the bus and quickly as NPR threw Juan Williams.

Anybody hear that Rhode Island Democrat governor candidate the other day?..........about Obama's failure to stop & help him during this campaign swing? He said the president was only using Rhode Island for a quick-stop ATM, furthermore, the president could "take his endorsement and shove it"...........his exact words.

From a DEMOCRAT.

Yes, I DO think that rhetoric is "ok" right now.............especially considering the slander, abuses, vulgar insults and lies that's coming from the Democrats----------which always seems to be "OK" with those lefties out there who can dish it out, but cry FOUL when it coes BACK.

Never in history has there been a load of DOUBLE STANDARDS, that there is today. Let Jay Leno or someone like him scream the obscenities at Harry Reid like Bahar just did against Angle, and his network would FIRE his butt RIGHT NOW.

Your side can say what IT wants........and all ears go suddenly DEAF.

And they USE people under the guise of being on their side. They promise the blacks much, for example, but 46 out of 60 years of control LATER, YOU still seem to have a lot of grievances Lamont.

Obama got the gay vote (as most Dems do), and THEY are mad now because they realize THEY have been scammed as well.

And the ONLY reason the White House is helping the Mexicans sneak in, is because an eventual amnesty would mean another 12-15 million votes the next time around.

Democrats are known univerally as the "give-away" party, the party of WELFARE, especially for those who have learned how to make it a way of life.

Here illegally?.........oh, by ALL MEANS, come one-come all! Food stamps and free medical for everybody (we'll just bill the taxpayers for it)............oh, and be SURE to register on the "D" side and vote for us AGAIN in you want some more!

It's been like that for the past three generations. Obama has merely said it more "elegantly"........calling it "SPREADING THE WEALTH"...........not HIS............OURS!

The Democrat Party has taken YOUR vote for granted for generations now, because you've stood WITH them faithfully and darkened in those (D) circles practically on learned instinct.

And throughout those same generations, your DEMOCRATS have been chiefly in control of the checkbook, (40+years out of 60 is at LEAST 2/3rds----any way you compute it)..........so let me ask you as Dr. Phil would...........

"How's that been workin' for ya?"

Ya grade 'em by their WORKS ol' buddy..........not their words.

Yes Lamont.........our side has crooks too.

But at least OUR side has finally figured it out, and we've started getting RID of OUR thieves in the primaries. You guys still follow the Dodds, the Reids, the Feinsteins and Boxers, the Feingolds, the Barney Franks and Charlie Rangels................

....and strangely, still COMPLAIN about how crappy things are in America...........

Well?..............Get RID of 'em! How hard can that be?

You own a business, Lamont. If you've got a sticky-finered bum working for ya, you'd FIRE him, wouldn't you?

WELL??????

-- Posted by bazookaman on Wed, Oct 27, 2010, at 10:09 AM

you went off on a tirade again.......and didnt answer the question.........so i will assume that you agree and would like to see a return to segragation,and no equal justice etc so i need to let you go..........the america i fought for said those days should end and continues to work on it........paul,angel.miller,o donnel.and several others including some leftist should be considered treasones.......to bad some think thats the way to go

-- Posted by lamont on Wed, Oct 27, 2010, at 6:22 PM

lamont,

You Sir are the perfect example of the perverbial "one trick pony" no matter what the issue, no matter who is arguing about what topic... to YOU it is ALWAYS about race.... LOOK IN THE MIRROR DUDE!!!

That racist you are seeking is looking back at you from that mirror every morning....

-- Posted by cant justwatch on Wed, Oct 27, 2010, at 9:20 PM

If you're talking about not wanting to live with illegals or terrorists-------------you're right---------in THAT aspect, I AM for "segregation"

Unless you fought in World War II..........you never fought for America and neither have I.

But I did not serve and sacrifice all those years to watch our country turn communistic, nor SUPPORT those who would try to lead us there.

Nothing going on today Lamont, has ANYTHING to do with race. TREASON is not a race issue! Unread bills and bribes are NOT race issues! Unemployment levels and a 13 Trillion dollar national debt are NOT race issues! The illegal invasion is NOT a race issue!

This "slavery" thing you keep saying is on the verge of happening again------------you're 100% CORRECT..............and it's coming from the COMMUNISTS in D.C. who INTEND to put us all under one big U.N. flag!

You're fighting the wrong people, dude. It's your OWN "leaders" who are looking to control every facet of your life.

And Lamont, if you think slavery in the old South was bad?...........MILLIONS under Lenin, Sralin and Mao who dared to resist-------just "mystically" seemed to DISAPPEAR!

You guys are amazing. Some slick-talking bureacrats start hollering "this will be free, that will be free, we're gonna give YOU, we're gonna make the rich pay for everything so you have to do nothing.......come to the USA and we'll give you food stamps, welfare, etc...............and all we ask is your vote.

...........and darned if a great multitude of the "sheep" start running around cheering, like they were just hatched yesterday.

The NAZI's put bread in the mouths of the economically-depressed Germans too.........at first.

Five days...........then we'll see if the American people are finally waking up and are ready to do some RESTORING around this place.

-- Posted by bazookaman on Thu, Oct 28, 2010, at 8:42 AM

Typo...........should have read STALIN, not Sralin. The "T" & "R" keys are right next to each other, and I missed that one.

Just out of curiosity, how does depression hurt minorities DOUBLE? If a black man, a white guy and a Mexican all lose their jobs, aren't all 3 of them are out of work?

If you and I live in the same town and you're paying $3.20 a gallon for gasoline-----so am I.

Albertson's is gonna charge ME just as much for a gallon of milk , as it charges YOU............so, how is the economy worse for you than it is for me?

Actually, when you really look around this country in 2010...........WHO is a "minority?" Been to a Wal-Mart lately? After you press "1" for English and finally DO get a live voice, can you always understand who you're talking to? When you have to pay for some services and the other guy gets his for FREE, WHO is the minority?

When you attend a parade, "Old Glory" passes and the only guy who stands up is the old veteran who struggles up out of his wheelchair, WHO is the minority?

$3.00 an hour, eh?............if we didn't have all these illegals in this country, these "under-the-table" factories and plants would HAVE to pay the American workers a decent wage.

And if we didn't keep trying to TAX the ones who HIRE to pay for all the crap and pork, maybe they WOULDN'T move their factories out of here.

Thanks for bringing up the Cubans, Lamont, I forgot about them. They are a PRIME example to ALL of us, why we shouldn't allow OUR country to be under communist doctrine. WE'd be trying to bail out too! They come here for the same reason the Vietnamese "boat people" came. Nobody wants to live in a country where the government runs your life and keeps you under its thumb.

We are in a unique situation, because we can see this forming up early enough to STOP it before it gets out of control, and it's a big "shame on us" if we leave these "control freaks in-place."

Every communist and facist regime started the same way, too:

Nation in economic havoc.

The right face, the right place and the right time.

Steal from the people, then mete it back a little at a time to make them think they're getting something.....all these little "freebies."

Give them that false security blanket.

Start taking away their rights as you tax more.

Take over industry and other things until the people are completely dependent upon YOU.

And definitely.........DEFINITELY.........DIS-ARM them so they can't make trouble.

..........and this is what I meant about "slavery"

We fought a war to stop slavery here, and it DID.

Not so in many communist/socialist countries, even today. Genocide still exists in thise world today, even AFTER Hitler.

The "health costs that people can't pay?"......if you're an illegal or an incarcerated convict, you don't HAVE to pay, because it's FREE, and WE pick up that tab, and Holder says it's ok to keep increasing it daily.

We aren't a country that anybody bows down to.........WE are doing THAT now. We still keep shelling out the money though, and they spit at us later as we go broke.

If we were allowed to buy our insurance across state borders, they'd HAVE to compete for our business, and we wouldn't be "captive buyers" anymore. I think we're gonna see a change here next year, because the Republicans are heavily in-favor of nationwide competetion instead of statewide monopolies.

The right doesn't have all the answers. Nobody does, but if we reduce the size of government and get it OUT of our lives, a lot of this crap will solve itself.............just think back to the 50's & 60's. Wasn't perfect, but compare it with now..............as government has GROWN, so have our problems.

The right DOES stand with our Constitution though. There isn't a socialist on that side of the aisle that I can name, and they WANT the borders shutdown and the citizens protected. They don't need the "illegal vote' to survive, and they DID give Clinton and this country a VERY strong economy WITH a surplus.

THIS Congress couldn't run a lemonade stand for a profit, and they side with the Mexican invaders, over their own country. They refuse to listen to the voters, continue to vote THEMSELVES pay raises.........and are now pleading in panic, for people to re-elect them again.

Notice if you will, how only 2 or 3 have dared to try to run on their support for the "stimulous", "Obamacare" or "immigration/amnesty."

Come Tuesday, the DNC will wish they HAD listened to the "constituents."

the double hurt is this.......i dont know if you have ever heard this.........LAST HIRED FIRST FIRED.......think about that.......has nothing to do with those who are working......ok... i hope that clarifys........... we... our gov... gives tax breaks to companys who outsource job......that has been in place for some time.....the question for us is why??????? give tax breaks to those who create jobs here......i said it before..... there has to be a national allegiance in the business world......now the RIGHT did in MASS vote against that......now we could go tit for tat i would prefer to say there are things that both sides should be able to sit down and come to solutions that take in all of US...........and more than that takes in the NATION which should be there first priority...........and as you feel threatened by some people so do i........the difference is yours are forgien .........mine are both forgien and domestic.......to include some elected officials just like you do.........as you feel you have the right so do i........i dont care who runs this there will be a path to citizenship........i dont know if money should be the driver and the holy grail of everything.........some where humanity has a place and should be considered in the decision......dont get me wrong i like to make money too........it doesnt drive my thoughts when it comes to my family and friends.......and yes i have a great vehicle(made in america)CAMPER (made in america) I CONSCIUOSLY look for made in america..........but thats me i will hire anyone who is and american citezen and or is here legally.........and i treat everyone as they treat me........im old fashioned if your older than me or look that way.. i still say yes sir and no sir,hold doors etc......disrespect me and i will respond in kind......those things are american........there still alive and the art of solving problems should be as well...........i brought up the cubans because of what they get when they get here ......i should say we wrote a special for them ........ck it out.........you will come unglued.....see ya got to practice doing a concert

Oh yeah, I've heard of "last hired first hired." When I got out of the Marine Corps back in '69, I got hired by a small packing and crating company in Hayward, California. When business dropped off a little, being the new guy, I was the first one out the door. Happened again in 1997 in Phoenix with a plumbing hardware company.

Seniority. Worked FOR me at Marsh Aviation in 2003 when they had to cut back. With most companies, "time in grade" usually counts at "cut-back" time, which in most cases, is how it SHOULD be. I've been laid off a few times as a civilian, and always understood it.

I have problems with both "foreign AND domestic" as well. ESPECIALLY the "domestic" politicians........because we have the RIGHT to expect better treatment from "our own."

There IS a path to citizenship, and a lot of those who have done it correctly are just as mad about the illegals as most of US.

It's not always easy to find things that are made in America anymore. I feel pretty sure about my '56 Oldsmobile though! What kind of vehicle and camper do you have, Lamont?

YOU are a consciencious employer..........too bad they aren't ALL that "straight up."

We're on the same page with respect to others. My wife never has to open a door for herself, and I too will hold one open for folks in stores, gas stations, etc. It's contageous, hopefully.

What special did we write for the Cubans? You're right, I probably DON'T want to know, but I'd like to read about it anyway.

Have a great time at the concert. I'm just doing a jam session Saturday night, and will be setting up for a Christmas show in a few weeks.

Later, Bro.

Yep...........money, power and greed.

Hey that's a pretty good deal the Cubans are getting..........too bad we're just Americans, eh?

I wonder what would happen if WE stole a rowboat and sneaked into Cuba? What kind of goodies would the Castro family give US?

I haven't kept up wth the new ones for the last 30 years. What is a Springdale? A Chevy?

Absolutely, it's always good to be able to get out and away for awhile............spend time with the wife & grandkids (although grandkids CAN wear ya out if you seen them TOO often!)

I don't know anybody personally who might be looking for a Caddy, but in case I DO, how many miles does it have on it? Power steering leak is no biggie. Where can it be seen, if I stumble across anybody?

A Cad or Lincoln might be hard to sell right now though, with gas prices on the rise again, but I'll sure keep an ear out. I wouldn't think that 500-cuber would be all that economical. Wrong?

Pretty day today. For the first time this week, no rain and no wind. No "honey-do's either..............I feel a "range session" coming on this morning.

Have a great day, Bro!

I've lived in Mtn Home for over 20 years. I love my city and my country. Since I am a writer, my decision to blog here seemed appropriate. I enjoy acting so I've been blessed with the opportunity to work on some independent films and with Prairie Dog Productions and Bogus Creek Ranch. I hope that something I have to write about has some value for others or just amuses someone.
