More cost to the consumer

Busy, busy, busy, that's life in today's hectic world. However, we must always be cognizant of the world around us, and that includes keeping a watchful eye on our socialist president. These deals that he and his administration are making with the car companies are troublesome at the least and downright socialistic as well. For the past few decades the Democrats have told the car companies what standards they have to include on their cars, and Barack is carrying on in that fine tradition. Just think, within a few short years the automobile manufacturers will have to add even more features to each and every car they build. Cost to the consumer? $1300 per vehicle. Thanks Obama, we really appreciate your thinking this through. Just like everything else you do! You are such a genius...why does it always seem that your ideas are so stupid?

Wondering

I wonder at, contemplate, observe, watch and listen to the events taking place in our world and then wonder if I am so much behind the time that I'm the only one to see what is happening. What is taking place currently, right now, is the exact same scenario that has been played out again and again. I wrote about it before, but it is so important for people to realize what is going on that I am writing about it again. Our society is degenerating, it is now okay to kill babies inside the womb where they are most helpless (and in the most need of care and comfort) and society does not even bat an eye. At the same time, we care more for animals than we do for these babies. We pretend to care for one another, yet society is filled with liars, hypocrits, backstabbers and connivers. I am sometimes saddened by events that don't have any rhyme or reason to them except perhaps to assauge an ego, to make someone feel good. It shows the worth (or lack thereof) of a man who would treat people poorly just for a sense of power, and a temporary sense of power at that. I wonder if these people realize who is really in control?

Wealth by division

"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybodyanything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is goingto get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation .. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it." ~~~~~ Dr. Adrian Rogers, 1931

A more appropro statement may never be more profound, especially during this era of socialism as evidenced by Obama's statement about health care. He believes that America cannot afford to not have a nationalized health care system, but upon examination what we find is that by taking from some to give to others, we create a system in which no one benefits and everyone is adversely affected. It's called SOCIALISM and it does not work!

A new day

Good morning to one and all! The day is beautiful, the skies are blue, the snow-topped mountains are beckoning alluringly in the distance, and life is good. No matter how our government is being managed, or mismanaged as the case may be, we can still make individual choices, we are still responsible for our own lives, and we still must live with consequences of our actions. I have resolved to change the things in life that I can change, work hard on the things that need changing, and live every single moment with fervor. I do not wish to see one single moment wasted. If I am successful in that endeavor, perhaps my life will have some importance, some influence or some positive effect on the people I come in contact with. That is my desire, and I'm sticking to it!

It will not work!

Here's a hypothetical situation for you; a socialist leaning leader of a large capitalist country wishes to guide the country down a different path. The country is torn by strife and a war that has been waged against them for many years. The socialist leaning leader decides to nationalize the banks, media and other major industries. He does this in a nefarious manner while appealing to the masses for change from what they have had. The masses respond in a very divisive manner with the nitwits winning out in the long run, and the country becoming totally socialist in nature. Individuals who no longer have the incentive, or the desire, to work because everything is now taken care of by the government, quit working. The economy, once the strongest in the world, slows down and production finally stops. Citizens starve, and the military is called out to quell the rebellious (and hungry!) masses. The socialist leaning leader declares himself dictator, and uses the military for his support. The country dwindles in obscurity, and the once bright beacon on the hill is extinguished. The dictator continues to rule the country until he is finally knifed and killed by a group of people who think they can do better. The country is torn even more, and finally is overthrown by a democratically led capitalist society. Sound familiar? It has happened throughout history, and guess what? It's happening again. All I can say is; we better not let the nitwits win!

Birds of a feather

I know that all you environmentalist whackos out there are going to have a field day with this, so have at it! I just heard on our local liberal talk station that a 200 million dollar road project is being held up for at least three months because there are 2 birds nesting nearby. The Utah Department of Transportation has stopped construction and built a 800 ft enclosure to ensure their privacy, all at the taxpayes expense. Nice! We can kill babys and call it abortion, we can have a president that doesn't want his daughters "punished by a baby" (if they choose to have sex before marriage) and we can justify millions of wasted dollars on pork barrel spending, but we cannot justify continuing road construction because two birds are nesting? How stupid are we? My solution...give me a rifle and the problem will be taken care of within two minutes. There will be two birds dispatched to wherever birds go when blown to pieces by a fast bullet tearing through their bodies. Don't like that solution...then carefully remove their nest to a more convenient spot (the top of a nearby mountain) and everyone is happy. I'd miss out on a bird meal, but I will sacrifice that for the sake of the community. Get a life people, they are birds!

No more Christians

For anyone who was in doubt when they heard Barack Obama say "America is no longer a Christian nation" you can rest assured that he and his ilk are doing everything in their power to ensure that the statement is true. Under Barack's leadership the National Public Radio has given the axe to every Christian broadcast that is under their jurisdiction. The NPR is worried that they will be promoting good behavior, a belief in Christ and non-diversity. In effect, the NPR is saying that Christians cannot be part of their diversity. Isn't that exactly what the liberals are touting? Isn't it ironic that the party that supposedly represents everyone, the party that supposedly represents minorities, the party that supposedly has compassion and caring as their motto, excludes the very group that touts the exact same thing? What is really worrisome about this entire scenario is that the many of the common masses are so flambozzled that can't even see what's wrong with this situation. After all Christians don't matter, right? And if Christians don't matter, then what group is next? The path to destruction is the path down which we are being led, and it is scary to think that we are doing so without even a whimper of protest.
Ladies and gentlemen, elections have consequences, and when conservatives have to hold their noses in order to choose between the radicalism of Barack Obama, and the moderate John McClain, then something is wrong. What conservatives need is someone who will actually stand up, hold the banner of conservatism high and keep his/her principles! Until that happens we will continue to be discriminated against and shut out of the very process that made America great.
