I don't hate Obama or Hillary just their actions

I have been asked why so many have to have such a hateful disrespect for Obama and Hillary. First of all I don't hate anyone, I hate what they are doing and have done to our country. Obama's own words describe his feeling for the take down of America in both of his father books. His disrespect for our military and for the pride of ownership that Americans have had in their country to me is a criminal attempt to destroy what has always made our country great. We have been the protector of democracy, we have been world’s last hope for peace through strength, we have been the most benevolent country in the world when others have suffered. We have been the greatest country in the world for generations without a doubt.

The change started with his apology tour and has denigrated to the forced reduction of our military, more actual time in this administration has been spent on trying to change our moral and religious beliefs than on producing jobs. I could give a crap about someone who wants to be something else, regardless of their birth. Just don't try to force me to accept it. This is a Christian Nation in spite of all that has been done to remove Christ from our lives. We have always been tolerant of the religion of others as long as they didn't try to usurp our religion. We also have always been a nation of immigrants just don't ask me to accept those who want to use the system for their own gain and then leave. American immigrants have to come to America with the hope of becoming Americans, it's always been their goal. Those who fail to assimilate into our society and try to rebuild our country into their old one need to leave and go back to that which they left.

Obama’s style of leading from behind is a joke, in the military we would call it cowardice. Obama’s well known hatred for imperialism has been the genesis for his actions, he has decided that we are an imperial nation similar to that his father lived under in Kenya under the British. His father did well enough, he attended the best colleges in the U.S., found an American wife had a child and abandoned them to go drink with his buddies in Kenya eventually dying in a car accident leaving the bar. To me his dreams were those of an Anarchist rather than those of a patriot of Kenya.

Now Hillary, that’s a totally different story, scandals have followed the Clintons for decades but their power and money has always got them off. Clinton claims to be a champion of the little guy and of women, wow where to begin? She has never done anything that didn’t have a price tag. From her bragging about getting the rapist of a 12 year old girl off to the treatment of those assigned to protect her. She has been a crass self-centered power and money hungry climber since she came on the scene. The list of her achievements from White Water to drug and money laundering in Arkansas have all been a huge right wing conspiracy just out to get her and Bill, right. Her willingness to accept her husband’s known digressions and used her power to discredit the women who have dared to come forward should give you an insight to her power hungry personality. Her ability to lie at the drop of a hat like she did to the parents of the Benghazi four and to cover her email fiasco with more lies should give you a hint. Read about the people who have been close to her over the years like the Secret Service personnel that had to serve her daily. Some of them are still alive to tell their story amazingly. No I don’t hate Hillary, as a Christian it would be impossible, I do hate what she stands for and everything about her life that has been lie after lie. She will be the one who has to eventually answer to a higher authority and I really don’t envy her that final day.

America First

Your loyalty should be to America:
What does a person consider when they pick a candidate for President of the United States? Are you so party oriented that it... doesn’t matter what your candidate does or says, or are you so party oriented that you have already voted in your mind and nothing could change your opinion? I believe this is what has happened in America. We have become so divided that our flag, our credo or our rights mean nothing to so many. They have been so brainwashed that it will take a major catastrophe to change them back to believe in America first. Whether it be the Unions, either party or right or left it’s all the same. We need to come together if we want to bring this country back to the greatness that our fathers and grandfathers left us in charge of. I know I will get chastised by the far right and the far left for my opinions but it’s time they both understood one thing; the majority in this country resides near center, it always has and always will and until we make the effort to meet in that middle ground we will have turmoil and chaos. Dividing us in castes as the politician have attempted to do will lead to anarchy and be the demise of the United States of America. Did you hear the words, The United States of America? The old adage of divide and conquer has been proven over the decades yet some seem to have forgotten these principles. 

It’s not a mystery that every candidate always has edged to the middle before an election, even Obama played the middle of the road card in his 2008 campaign and then veered to the left during his first term. We the middle class of this country believe in the following:
1. We believe man is responsible for his own actions and deeds.
2. Welfare is meant to be a boost up not a full time occupation capturing generation after generation in its clutches.
3. We believe in the free enterprise system (capitalism) allowing a person the freedom to a build a legal business with the least amount of interference from government. This is the greatest of all job creators, small business.
4. We believe in a fair tax system that everyone pays into based on their ability to earn. Penalizing the job creators only penalizes the job seeker.
5. We believe in tort reform to eliminate the frivolous lawsuits that tie up our court system and put the burden of paying higher prices for most items on the back of the consumers.
6. We believe that every ad produced by politicians must stand the burden of proof. False claims proven lies or twisted truths must be eliminated or the candidate must be liable for damages.
7. We believe that the so called super pacts must submit all ad’s to the candidate for approval making the candidate responsible for the content.
8. We believe all funds from unions and non-profit organizations must be held to a secret vote of the membership prior to disbursement to a candidate and these funds must be divided according to membership votes. (60/40) etc.
9. We believe in legal immigration, without immigration we will lose our diversity and wither and die as a country. To attain this we must close our borders at all cost and deport any who break or have broken our laws with criminal intent.
10. We believe that we can solve the problem with those who are already here in this country but they must not be a burden on our Social Security System or our medical system.
11. We believe that the government cannot support nationalized healthcare yet we can support a special insurance fund for those who cannot obtain healthcare due to existing health problems. Fraud in this area should be dealt with severely and harshly.
12. We believe in a commonsense approach to regulation vs personal freedoms, the Constitution is our guide and its basics are not to be interpreted in or for political gain.

We are Americans first and foremost and we will be heard. The old term of the Silent Majority is passé, and we don’t intend to be silent any longer. No politician, no union, no party will decide our vote.

7+ years ago

Stepping back in time 7.5 years ago a young inexperienced one term Senator was elected to the office of President with little or no vetting by anyone. It was enough that he was personable, a good orator and he was black. His 1st move was to declare that he was going to close Gitmo and bring the prisoners here for trial in our justice system with all our rights of representation. When he couldn't get Congress to go along he started letting them go, releasing them to countri...es whose ability to watch them was clearly in doubt. He traded 5 of the top Al-Qaida leaders captured on the battle field for 1 deserter without Congressional approval. He instigated and forced through a Democratic House and Senate the Affordable Care Act that has caused many to lose the coverage and Doctors that they had for years. He did so without a single republican vote. He withdrew our troops from Iraq against the recommendations of our Generals causing a vacuum in the region that was soon filled by Isis and other radical groups giving them the territory that was freed with the blood of American Heroes. He has downgraded the military to a point lower than pre WWII and has spent more time trying to change the lifestyle of Americans than paying attention to the economy. Our V.A. system has been a joke to all but those who have depended on it for necessary care. His deal of all deals was the Iranian fiasco. He and Secretary Clinton and then Secretary Kerry formulated a deal to stop them from getting the nuke, in the end everyone was against the deal yet they proceeded to go through with it guarantying them a path to nuclear weapons within 5 years or sooner. We got nothing but shouts of Death to America and $150 Billion payout out of the deal. He ransomed 4 prisoners in Iran for a $400Million dollar all cash payment without approval of Congress.
 
These are but a few of the irrational and illegal programs he has forced through by Presidential edict. Now because he speaks his mind and talks like a real American the press and the elite Washington Establishment is trying to destroy Donald Trump. They say he is hot headed and irrational, how about he's just pissed off and fighting for our America the best way he knows. In the end the American people will have their say in the matter but it is with a press dedicated to destroy rather than report his every move. No one has been vetted more that Donald Trump, his loyalty to the people and his leadership itself makes him much more qualified than the Community Organizer he will replace. Voting for a known liar and incompetent just because she is a woman and has promised free goodies to all is insane. If she couldn't even follow direct orders as to her email and lied about it many times to the American people how do you think she will live up to her promises?

What is gender equality worth?

The world has waited for 240 years for our country to have a woman President and the best we can do is offer a known liar and unscrupulous, power hungry, scandal ridden, retread from the 60’s.  She was disbarred, discredited and caught lying to the parents of the Benghazi four.   You ask what difference does it make Hillary?  You screwed up in Libya causing thousands to die, you totally misread ridiculous Russian restart program allowing the invasion of the Ukraine allowing thousands to be displaced and hundreds to die, you supported the wrong government in Egypt and it took a revolution to clean up your mess again thousands died, your Syrian Red line in the sand approach was tragic causing more thousands to die, you advised the pull out of Iraq allowing Isis to fill the void causing more thousands to die.  You tried to help defeat the one ally we have in the Middle East, Netanyahu by funneling money to his opposition an you lied about your emails to the entire country.  I can think of hundreds of good women that are trustworthy, honest and are true patriots that it would be an honor to vote for and I would be proud doing so.  It will be the end of our system of government that has served America for generations if the people are so party driven as to vote you in as President. What has happened to the party of Truman and Roosevelt?  How have the American people been so corrupted by so few.  We have politicians like Bernie who actually called out Hillary’s crimes and flaws but then he abandoned his movement by giving into the establishment.  Bernie is a Socialist and I surely don’t cry over his demise as I spent 6 years in the Military to standup for our lifestyle and freedom against Communism and Socialism.  Our freedom surely didn’t come from Welfare, free education and big government handout policies.  It came from hard work, men dying to defend our freedom and women who put on their gloves and went to work like Rosie the Riveter.  America has a proud heritage, much too proud to dishonor the office of President for the sake of gender equality by the likes of Hillary.  Always remember the ballot that you have the freedom to cast has the blood of a million defenders on it, never allow it to be misused or abused.

God Bless America and all she stands for.      

Ignorance is rampent

As I listen to the news about the Dallas shootings of Police Officers this morning I am appalled by the ignorance of the situation.  The lack of community leadership in the black community and from our own government is astonishing.  This Black Lives Matter groups rhetoric has become a poison in our society and is calling for anarchy and no one is standing up to them.  I truly believe that there are some isolated instances where Black men have been targeted but in a small minority.  I agree no one should fear the police as it breaks down everything that stands for freedom but the constant barrage of criticism coming from black leaders is poisoning the minds of the youth of the community.  The lack of education, the lack of parental involvement and the lack assimilation into the various communities breeds hatred.  When a child is left to learn from the streets without strong parental guidance they grow up with no personal responsibility nor ambition. A few escape the clutches of the drug culture that has permeated their neighborhoods and go on to productive and rewarding lives but the majority remained trapped in the ghetto that is their world. 

The race bating that comes from many black leaders including this administration only leads to more animosity and less personal responsibility.  It's time for some real soul searching, it's time for each police department to clean up their own ranks and it's time for the black community to join the rest of the world.  Clean out the drugs rather than blame the police, let the process of guilt and innocence play out rather than stream into the streets with hatred.  It's time to be parents and set an example rather than take the easy way through life.  Any child under 17 should be in school getting an education, learning to escape the ghetto and it's influences.  Isolate the bad and force them out of your lives, they only survive by dragging your kids down to their level.  Stop complaining about jobs when you haven't done a single thing to make you qualified for work.  No business is going to pay you because they love you, they pay you because you return a service to them in the form of labor.  Look in the mirror first before you blame the rest of the world for your troubles.  The alternative is a life of continued desperation and very little chance for success in life.  

Learning to live in a cultured society is not giving into the man, it's not becoming an Uncle Tom it is learning to enjoy the American Dream.  It's out there for you if you want it to be.  It's not easy and there will be many fails but the strong will become leaders and the community will follow your example.    

Independence Day 2016

Independence Day is our birthday here in America and is a demonstration of our pride and our freedom.  As Americans whether natural born or naturalized this is our opportunity to show the world that we won’t be intimidated nor will we allow a few radicalized A..h…s to keep us from the freedoms we have earned.  This is a day to celebrate the fact that in the last 240 years we have won our independence from an oppressive King, fought to free and liberate slavery, battled to liberate and free Europe from the Nazi’s, proudly reacted and fought bravely to support our South East Asia Defense Agreements in Korea and Viet Nam.  With very few casualties destroyed the dreaded Iraqi brigades of Sadam Hussein when they invaded a friendly nation. The battles we now face are not of our doing yet our will and our fierce independent spirit will not allow any enemy foreign or domestic, Religious or Atheist to dominate our society.  We as Americans will not be cowed into submission and we surely won’t hesitate to defend our freedom by any means necessary.  A warning to those who would misjudge our ability to come together and destroy any entity that threatens our independence, what makes America great is the fact that we face battle not with the hope of dying to meet our God, we face battle to live and to build a better world for all to live in.  We face battle to make a safe place for our children and loved ones yet to come.  We face battle with a normal fear in our hearts but with the ferocity of a mother lion protecting her pride.  We now have a State to name as our enemy a self-proclaimed Caliphate that wants to take the world back to the 6^th century when this battle began.  Don’t be fooled, you hear that Americans are tired of war but understand we are not too tired to fight for our freedom and to preserve our way of life.   God Bless America and all those who defend her honor.    

Happy Fathers Day

To all the Dads out there who take their responsibility seriously and with love, I hope you have a great Fathers Day.  Dads should be the heroes in the lives of their children as well as their chief supporter in all their endeavors.  The years go by swiftly and one day you wake up and they are gone, off to raise their own.  Make the best out of each day and you will never have regrets.  I wish someone would have given me this advice 50 years ago when I thought my main job was basically financial support for the family.  Thankfully my family is intact and a loving one that cares deeply for each other, a goal any man would love.  Thank you Jan for all your loving support, even when I didn’t always deserve the title of Father of the Year.    

I'm sick of hearing this President

Am I the only one who gets physically sick when I hear this President speak.  For 7 plus years we have heard how wonderful the Muslins are and how it’s the Christians who have caused most of the problems in the world.  If these American Muslins are so peaceful and caring as he keeps telling us let them take the things from the Koran like Sharia Law, hatred for Jews and Christians, death to the Gays and sign a pledge of allegiance to America.  Have them police their Mosques for those who preach Jihad and bring to light those who would do terror upon us.  Prove that they can live in peace with fellow Americans by becoming part of the fabric of our neighborhoods and by loudly rejecting the doctrine of hate that has permeated the Middle East and so much of Europe.  So many of them seem to gather in Ghettos reliving the life they fled rather than enjoying the fruits of America.  They demand things like Sharia Law rather than partner with those that have reached out to help them.  I have absolutely nothing against people from different lands and customs but when they fail to assimilate and allow a faction to live among them who would drag us back to the Stone Age I find it threatening to say the least.  My own Doctor for years here in this little town was from the Middle East and a Muslim, he was one of the best Doctors I have had the pleasure to meet yet one day he told me that he was leaving the area because he was uncomfortable with his Mosque in Reno.  I was disappointed that he would choose to run rather than stand and fight to change what was wrong.  Racial bias has no place in America and in fact those who preach it usually have not found their own peace and serenity.  I mean that from all aspects, every race has their bigots it’s not just whites that can be racists.

The other part of my loathing of this President is his desire to defame our country.  He has as much as stated it in his writing.  He has a distaste for American power considering it colonialism, it showed during his first term apology cruise around the world.  He has done more to stir the fires of racism during his presidency than any other in history.  From Furguson to New York to Baltimore he has sent his emissaries like Sharpton or his flunky ex Attorney General Eric Holder to rally the folks and cause them to believe they were wronged before any proof of misconduct could even be found.  No, I not a fan, I was raised to believe that to get ahead in this world you had to work for it and to treat everyone equally.  I was brought up in a home where everyone was welcome and if they were hungry they were fed.  I was taught it was a privilege to serve our country as were my two brothers.  He has openly called for redistribution of wealth and believes in a welfare system that has all but destroyed so much of the black community.  I am of the belief that being an American is a privilege and I and most of those who come from my era no matter their politics have shown their generosity every time there is a disaster around the world.  He has shown that he believes that this country is populated by a bunch of pompous self-serving greedy white guys who need their comeuppance.  No, sorry but I am not a fan.   

Who does he blame for the massacre in Orlando, hint it’s not the shooter, it’s the republicans because they believe in the 2^nd Amendment.  No matter what side you are on regarding gun control understand this, the Cartels in Mexico are just waiting for a ban on so called assault rifles, they have thousands of them crated and ready to smuggle across the border and believe me, they won’t be selling them to nice people.  If you think there is violence now just wait till only the bad guys have the guns.

A time for action

This morning as I turned the computer on I was shocked at the idea that a fellow human being could bring himself to such extreme hatred and violence.  Then it dawned on me I can’t call these radicals fellow human beings as they don’t even resemble anything in the animal world.  They are from another world one which is filled with hatred and self loathing as its core beliefs.  This war has been going on for thousands of years and will continue as long as we allow it to.  Cringing in fear is not the American way, when confronted with these situations our government seeks gun control a typical liberal solution.  I too believe in gun control, if just one man or woman in that night club had been in control of a gun there would be less dead people today.  Until our leaders show they have the cahonies to face the world situation with a force strong enough to eradicate the radicals we will always be hiding under tables.  They say we are tired of war and no one has the guts to even propose boots on the ground for fear of losing votes, what happens when we tire of these type events will anyone step up to the challenge of protecting our people.  Liberal solutions are what have gotten us into this mess; fighting a war with one arm tied behind our back, (stringent rules of engagement) leaving the battle before it has been won, (Korea, Viet Nam, Iraq and Afghanistan.)  Wars are cruel and deadly they should not be run by politicians seeking votes but men and women who have trained for war and understand it’s a violent procedure not let’s get together for a beer and work out our differences.  God Help us if we don’t make a change in direction soon.    

June 6th, 1944

72 years ago on a cold June 6th morning thousands of American, English and Canadian troops helped their peers become known as greatest generation in history. They waded ashore through heavy fire and mines to eventually get a foothold on the beach. No one can imagine the fear, the apprehension and adrenalin coursing through their veins as the Germans held the high ground over the beach. 2500 brave souls died on the beach that morning and thousands were wounded and evacuat...ed. Our lives today reflect the freedom earned through their defiant courage. Over 10,000 Americans are buried on Normandy's shore and each year although the number is dwindling, survivors in their 90's come to pay tribute to their interned comrades. As Churchill once said of the RAF, "We owe so much to so few." We certainly would not have the freedoms of today without the extreme sacrifice of yesterday.

No more appologies

This week’s trip around the world by our President shows exactly the difference in the Democratic party from years past.  Harry Truman weighed the difference between losing over a million men by attacking the mainland of Japan, these were the loving sons of America families compared to first warning the world of a weapon of total destruction and then destroying our enemy at Hiroshima and Nagasaki.  This the same enemy who had viciously attacked us at Pearl Harbor without warning and exacted a huge toll on American lives as we fought island to island in the Pacific to wrestle control and bring peace to the area.  An enemy who totally refused to capitulate even as their people were being blown out of the cities across Japan by our B29’s.   Compare that to the wartime President today who won’t even put a name on our enemies.  A President who instead of extolling the virtue of the rebuilding of these areas to world class cities, (with a great deal of help from America) chose to talk about the horror of the weapon and that it should have been never been used never used again.  So he would have sacrificed the troops to save our adversaries?  Harry Truman he is not!  The Democratic Party has become the party of capitulation.  Nickoli  Kruschev told us in the 60’s that they the Russians didn’t need to fight us because they were winning the battle for control inside our government and across our country already.  My father God rest his soul was a Democrat all his life yet his last vote here on earth was for Reagan.  He  had no choice as the Democrats were not the party of Truman and Henry Jackson that he knew and respected but had been taken over by a form of Socialism that was trying to buy votes with government services.  This was years ago and the party has moved farther left with each election.  Can you imagine a man of my father’s era responding to this latest edict of Obama about Transgender men or women  using the bathroom or locker room of their choice rather than their gender. 

The men and women who actually built the United States, who are the Blue Collar workers, mostly democrats are being forced to fight for the few remaining jobs left here in the United States after decades of poor judgement by our government have sent our manufacturing base to other countries.  Who have allowed the Middle East to dictate what we pay for oil and gas.  Who have allowed foreigners to buy up our cities and farms without so much as whimper of descent? Who have allowed bureaucracies like the EPA, the IRS, and the BLM to become weapons to be used to quell the outcry of over reach from the people affected.  The Republicans have done little to stop this transgression of government expansion and have meekly crawled into oblivion on the issue of our rights as citizens.  

And you ask how I can vote for Trump, somebody has to straighten out our countries problems and it surely won’t be an insider.  I don’t consider Trump a party member, a true conservative or an independent, To me he is a Populist and has finally found the button to wake up the Silent Majority.  America needs a rousing revamping of our priorities and a new vow by all elected to honor our Constitution and the basic rights it gives us.  God Bless America, we need his blessing to survive.
