"Fathom the hypocrisy of a government that requires every citizen to prove they are insured... but not everyone must prove they are a citizen."

Now add this, "Many of those who refuse, or are unable, to prove they are citizens will receive free insurance paid for by those who are forced to buy insurance because they are citizens."


Think about it when you vote November 6th.

I Am the Democratic Liberal-Progressive's Worst Nightmare.
I am a White, Conservative, Tax-Paying, American Veteran, Gun Owning . That's me!
I worked hard and long hours with my hands and brains to earn a living.

I believe in God and the freedom of religion, but I don't push it on others.
I  drive American-made cars, and I believe in
American products and buy them whenever I can.

I believe the money I make belongs to me and not some liberal governmental functionary,
Democratic or Republican, that wants to share it with others who don't work!

I'm in touch with my feelings and I like it that way!

I think owning a gun doesn't make you a killer; it makes you a smart American it's protection
I strongly am convinced if you Abort a baby at any time you are a murderer, you are guilty and the person doing it is also guilty.
I think being a minority does not make you noble or victimized, and does not entitle you to anything.

Get over it! Quit your damn whining and if that is racist  to bad , I don't care.

I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac or any other item, you should do it in English.

I believe there should be no other language option. I believe in order to get a job you speak english, you do not ask for a prayer room,  you are there to work pray on your own time . It is a custom here in the United States to take pride in this country ,I do and so should you , If you want Sharia , take it back to your country and live it ,It will have no place with our constitution.

I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her God when and where they want to. Just do not insist that I should and have to believe in yours I will  not and that means Islam get my point .

My heroes are Malcolm Forbes, Bill Gates, John Wayne, Babe Ruth,Billy Graham SR and JR.  Roy Rogers,and Ronald Reagan,
I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor.

If you are a terrorist and want to do your jihad here and get caught expect death with out your virgins and you should be put in with the worst of the worst in prison for as long as you shall live .

I've never owned a slave, nor was I a slave. I haven't burned any witches or been persecuted
By the Turks, and neither have you! So I owe you squat That happened a long time ago ,get over it . Start depending on yourself and not the Government  , buy your own phone you bunch of leeches.

I believe if you don't like the way things are here, go back to where you came from and
Change your own country!

This is AMERICA ...We like it the way it is and more so the way it was...so stop trying to change it to look like Russia or China, Middle East, Mexico or some other socialist country!

If you were born here and don't like it...you are free to move to any Socialist country that will have you. Most are already in that condition now so you do not have to change much just move right in .

I believe it is time to really clean house, starting with the White House, the seat of our biggest problems.

I want to know which church is it, exactly, where the Reverend Jesse Jackson preaches, where he gets his money, and why he is always part of the problem and not the solution?

Can I get an AMEN on that one?

I also think the cops have the right to pull you over if you're breaking the law, regardless of what color you are. If they find that you are here illegal who is at fault here, not the cop.

And, no, I don't mind having my face shown on my driver's license. I think it's good....
And I'm proud that 'God' is written on my money.. the pledge to the flag, that is what the pilgrims and revolutionist started this country from and it should be taught in schools. I do not believe that I need to adjust to  a minority that does not believe in GOD , if you do not like it or agree, you leave  why should the 1 %  have any say against the majority. If this offends you  , There again I do not care , LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT.

I think if you are too stupid to know how a ballot works, I don't want you deciding who should be running the most powerful nation in the world for the next four years.
I have to show a photo id every where , so what is the big deal about voter id?   I know it's called voter fraud and t's on both sides what a shame .
I dislike those people standing in the intersections trying to sell me stuff or trying to guilt me into making 'donations' to their cause....Get a job and do your part to support yourself and your family!

I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child, it takes two parents....

I believe 'illegal' is illegal no matter what the lawyers think!
I believe that if you want to be a citizen here you will do it the right way or your out... I do not want to pay your bills at hospitals ,schools, why should you be able to sponge off me?
I believe the American flag should be the only one allowed in AMERICA!  

If this makes me a BAD American, then yes, I'm a BAD American.

If you are a BAD American too, please forward this to everyone you know...

We want our country back!

My Country.....I hope this offends all illegal aliens.

My great, great, great, great grandfather watched and bled as his friends died in the Revolution & the War of 1812.
My great, great, great grandfather watched as his friends died in the Mexican American War.
My great, great grandfather watched as his friends & brothers died in the Civil War.
My great grandfather watched as his friends died in the Spanish-American War.
My grandfather watched as his friends died in WW I.
My father watched as his friends died in WW II.

I watched as my friends died in Vietnam, Panama & Desert Storm.
My son watched & bled as his friends died in Afghanistan and Iraq.
None of them died for the Mexican Flag.
Everyone died for the American flag.

Texas high school students raised a Mexican flag on a school flag pole, other students took it down.

Guess who was expelled...the students who took it down.

California high school students were sent home on Cinco de Mayo, because they wore T-shirts with the American flag printed on them.

Enough is enough!! I could care less about your sexual habits, just do not impose them on others ,if I or any one else do not want to serve you or even like you ,that is my decision not some  lib Judge, if you do not like it feel free to start your own gay business or go somewhere else,I do not care  . I believe GOD will judge accordingly but that is my belief ,you just go about the way you are and we will see what becomes of it.

This message needs to be viewed by every American; and every American needs to stand up for America.

We've bent over to appease the America-haters long enough. I'm taking a stand.

I'm standing up because the hundreds of thousands who died fighting in wars for this country,
and for the American flag.

If you agree, stand up with me and forward to everyone in your address book!!

And shame on anyone who tries to make this a racist message.

AMERICANS, stop giving away Your RIGHTS!

Let me make this clear! THIS IS MY COUNTRY!

This statement DOES NOT mean I'm against immigration!

YOU ARE WELCOME HERE, IN MY COUNTRY, welcome to come LEGALLY:

1. Get a sponsor!

2. Learn the LANGUAGE, as immigrants have in the past!

3. Live by OUR rules!

4. Get a job!

5. Pay YOUR Taxes!

6. No Social Security until you have earned it and Paid for it!

7. NOW find a place to lay your head!

If you don't want to forward this for fear of offending someone, then YOU'RE PART OF THE PROBLEM!

We've gone so far the other way. . . bent over backwards not to offend anyone.

Only AMERICANS seems to care when American Citizens are being offended!

WAKE UP America!!!

Made in the U. S. A. & PROUD OF IT!!!

Fox News has received several complaints from voters in battleground states who say they voted on touch-screen machines, only when they tried to select Mitt Romney, the machine indicated they had chosen President Obama.

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/11/02/claims-increasing-switched-votes-in-ohio/

This has happened in Nevada, North Carolina, Texas and Ohio.  Could the Socialist Party (Democrats) be behind this? ??? ...hmmmmm

Hurricane Sandy's devastation in NJ, NY, Del.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

             


Jonathan Maimon lives in Downtown Brooklyn, where he commutes to his job as a associate portfolio manager for a mutual fund based in Jersey City. Maimon spent six years in Manhattan and calls it "a place that I'm pretty close with emotionally," which is why he made a meandering five-hour, 12 mile run across Lower Manhattan to survey the damage. Based on what he saw, he thinks that perhaps the city is moving on too quickly.

"There were no Red Cross vehicles, not a lot of city vehicles around to reach out to people and ask them what services they needed," Maimon says. "It was just pedestrians walking around and exploring. People were very calm, very friendly, you know how people are in New York. But what was shocking is that there was no food. Nothing was open. And then they have to go home to apartments without power."

Maimon adds, "And the most serious thing to me is elderly or disabled people in high rise buildings—this affects you if you're rich or poor. There's not a lot of ways for them to get out safely. I'm kinda worried about the city not really knowing how many of those people are out there." That's why he wrote this letter to us. "The mayor just said that the worst of the storm was behind us, which is factually true," Maimon adds. "But I personally think the worst is yet to come. Not having power is going to wear people down."

Here's his letter:


1.) Virtually every retailer, restaurant and grocery store south of 38th street is CLOSED. This is in an area covering 8 square miles. I only observed a handful of bodegas in Soho and the East Village, along with Ben's Pizza on W3rd and MacDougal serving customers. Whole Foods Union Square had a sign reading "because there is no electricity, we cannot open." There is no food, other than what you have in your refrigerator.

2.) To that point, there are close to 400,000 people living below 38th street without power. The mayor earlier said it could be 3 days without power; some Con Ed guys I spoke with in the East Village think it could be longer. Nobody knows.

3.) No working traffic lights in this region (drivers are generally being cautious and appropriately yielding to pedestrians). Apartment stairwells are pitch black. High rises have no elevator access.

4.) For now, this is an economic crisis - hourly workers cannot be paid, freelancers have no clients, small businesses have no sales, office buildings are shuttered. In my estimate, the lost output is $1 billion dollars EVERY SINGLE DAY that goes by without power for lower Manhattan. Included in this number is the shutdown of our major airports and transportation system. (Note that NYC's economy generates $2.8 bn daily and over $1 trillion annually - which makes it the world's 17th largest economy, if it was a country).

5.) There is no running water or flushing toilets for people living in the Jacob Riis Houses and surrounding NYCHA buildings on the Lower East Side. In my estimate, this is roughly 20,000 people. One family I spoke with is packing their bags and moving to Brooklyn until services are restored. But it did not appear that all residents were evacuating, even as their toilets did not flush.

6.) I did not witness a single Red Cross Truck or FEMA Vehicle or in lower Manhattan. Recall the assistance these agencies provided after 9/11 - this is NOT HAPPENING. There are bound to be hundreds of elderly people, rich and poor, who live on the upper floors of buildings with elevators that are now disabled. IF POWER IS NOT RESTORED, THIS WILL MOVE FROM BEING AN ECONOMIC DISASTER TO A HUMANITARIAN DISASTER.

7.) If you think Chinatown normally has an unpleasant odor, imagine what it smells like 24 hours following no refrigeration. Street vendors were trying to unload perishables at bargain prices. I saw a fish weighing roughly 20 pounds and spanning 3 feet from head to tail go to a buyer for $1 dollar. $1 dollar!!!!!

8.) The substation responsible for the outage is a huge facility. It spans an entire avenue from Avenue C to D and a length of street from 13th to 14th. If crews have to inspect every coil and wire, it might be MORE THAN THREE DAYS UNTIL POWER IS RESTORED. Additionally, the site did not appear staffed with many Con Ed workers. As a note, the 2003 blackout lasted 15 hours.

9.) The water from the storm surge was invariably contaminated - floating garbage, wood pieces from the dock, and possibly sewage. One Nuyorican woman who lived on Avenue C near 12th street noted the water level peaked above her waist. She was still visibly shaken this afternoon. She also recalled a huge noise at 8 pm when the substation failed. The sky, in her words, turned from black to green

10.) There were some very generous things. Northern Spy Food Co. served lunch to everyone who lined up outside their restaurant at Avenue A and 12th street - polenta, pork buns, chicken, biscuits and freshly baked cookies. They get props in my book; all this food was served to locals at no charge.

The Secretary of Business

By: John Hayward
11/1/2012 10:00 AM






In a recent interview with MSNBC, President Obama wistfully dreamed of adding another incredibly expensive layer of bureaucracy to his Titanic Government model, perhaps forgetting that he's supposed to be pretending to care about the deficit. "I've said that I want to consolidate a whole bunch of government agencies. We should have one secretary of Business, instead of nine different departments that are dealing with things like giving loans to SBA or helping companies with exports," he sighed, toying with his hair as he dreamed of Evil Businessmen kneeling before his latest almighty czar, while the Czar of All Czars beams radiantly in the background, waving off the intelligence officers who keep trying to pester him with national security briefings.

This is a remarkably clear window into the Obama mind, which sees no problem that cannot be solved by funding an even more powerful and unaccountable bureaucrat to control it. Notice that it does not even briefly occur to the President that maybe the real problem is the federal government sucking huge sums money out of the private sector and redistributing it, whether it be through nine different departments or one Orwellian "Secretary of Business." Not only is government spending completely unrelated to the federal deficit in Obama's thinking, but it's not high enough. As he famously observed, "the private sector is doing fine," and should be paying even more to shivering, malnourished Washington. His plans haven't worked, so his solution is even bigger plans, enforced by a more powerful commissar.

Also, it evidently did not occur to the MSNBC crew to ask Obama why he hasn't already proposed this wondrous "consolidation" of "a whole bunch of government agencies," since he's been the President for almost four years already, and conspicuously lacks reticence about using executive power when he wants to. He's been heard to daydream about closing Guantanamo Bay, too, once he replaces the useless jerk who kept America's Cuban concentration camp running for the last few years. With Barack Obama, it's always about what he'll do someday, never about what he's already done, or failed to do. He just has to kick that incumbent Empty Chair out of Oval Office, and the good times will roll.

Is there really anyone in America who still thinks "consolidation" under higher levels of unaccountable power actually saves the taxpayers money, or improves government efficiency? Creating the Department of Homeland Security was supposed to improve communication among the many agencies tasked with national security... but here we are, over a month after a deadly attack on American soil that killed our ambassador to Libya, and the entire Administration is waving its hands and insisting that nobody knows anything about what happened, the State Department doesn't really talk to the White House intelligence team, and (according to Vice President Joe Biden) the White House isn't really part of the Administration. Who wants to bet Obama's "Secretary of Business" would be better informed, and more forthcoming, than his Secretary of State was?

The last thing we need is a more powerful, less transparent conveyor belt for the bags of taxpayer money Obama loves to toss to his big contributors. The last thing we need is a heavier boot coming down on the businesses Obama doesn't want to "win," and a more generous hand writing checks to his favorite losers. The last thing this moribund economy needs is an accelerated process of Solyndraficiation. The problems with this Administration do not include an insufficiently vast host of czars. The chief business of the American people is business, and how we conduct it is none of Obama's business.

The Romney campaign built an ad off the "Secretary of Business" nonsense, but no freedom-loving American who really cares about economic liberty and robust growth should need to hear more than the words "Secretary of Business" to run away from this Halloween horror story.

How weird is this: 

A tree limb brought down by Superstorm Sandy claimed the life of John Rose, a state legislative candidate in West Virginia, but his death came too close to the election to remove his name from the ballot.

Rose, 60, a Barbour County Republican candidate for the House of Delegates, died on Tuesday (Oct. 30) when a snow-laden tree branch snapped and struck him while he was out checking fences on his deer farm, according to the Charleston (W.V.) Daily Mail. The massive snowstorm wrought by Hurricane Sandy left parts of West Virginia buried in more than 3 feet of snow.

If the late Rose wins Tuesday's (Nov. 6) election against House of Delegates Education Chair Mary Poling, a Democrat, West Virginia Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin, also a Democrat, will appoint one of three nominees submitted by the Barbour County GOP executive committee.

And it wouldn't be the first time a deceased candidate won public office. In 2000, late Missouri Gov. Mel Carnahan became the first deceased person elected to the U.S. Senate when he beat Republican incumbent John Ashcroft despite dying in a plane crash a few weeks before the election.

The gigantic gaffing granddaddy of all his gaffes.... Joker Joe Biden, while in Wisconsin, said the following about Pres. Obama during his campaign speech yesterday: "I'll tell you what, there's never been a day in the last four years I've been proud to be his vice president.  Not one single day.  Not one single day."

Ditto that, Joe.
