"The shroud ....has fallen, impossible to see the future is”.   I would have used the entire quote from Star Wars Revenge of the Sith and said "of the dark side" but then the liberals would have accused me of being a racist.  I made the same comment in 1993 when President Clinton took over with a Democrat Congress.  It's a reference to evil Democrats, not skin color, you idiots.
 

Now you are saying "Isn't evil a bit harsh, just because you disagree with someone politically does not make them evil".  I say it depends on the issue.  Some issues are black or white.  Oops! We can't say that anymore either.  It means right or wrong idiots; it has nothing to do with skin color.

Some issues are more than just right or left, they are right or wrong.   President Obama already demonstrated this week that he is on the wrong side of history and from my standpoint the evil side of the issues....

First, he signs an executive order to fund overseas abortions again with our tax dollars. A policy that seems to change every time the White House changes hands  from one party to another.  It makes me sick that my tax dollars are supporting genocide in foreign countries.  The destruction of innocent human life should not be paid for with my tax dollars.  That is evil, plain and simple.  Did you ever notice that the "peace" demonstrators that are so worried about the rights of guilty, terror-causing, human life never seem to complain about abortion?                  

Second, he signs an executive order which basically orders the closing of Guantanamo Bay before the end of the year.  White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs when asked "Where will you put the detainees?" He replied "I don't know... that has not been decided yet."  When asked if the country was still conducting a war on terror?  Gibbs replied “I don't know.... I will ask you to refer to the President's Inaugural Address on that issue...  I think the President made himself clear in the last speech."   The problem is; he is right.  The President does not care if a mushroom cloud appears over a major city in the United States as long as we are respected by Europe.  The President is more concerned about the adoration of the world, than the safety of the United States.    Putting the country you just swore twice to protect at risk of another terrorist attack is evil.    I am reminded of Pittsburgh Steeler Jack Lambert's famous quote "I'd rather be feared and respected than loved and adored".  That should be our foreign policy until the end of the war with radical Islam. All throughout the 1990's   the terrorists were at war with us, we just didn’t fight back until 2001.  They will always be at war with us, whether or not we choose to fight them...

Third, President Obama, along with the liberals in Congress and the media are already starting to squash dissent already.  Fox News reported this morning on Fox and Friends President Obama had the nerve to say yesterday "If Republicans want to have a seat at the table they better stop listening to people like Rush Limbaugh who just tow the line and start listening to me"   So now if you don't agree with the Administration you don't get a seat at the table.  That's funny; I thought the Democrat Party believed that dissent was the highest form of patriotism.   When President Bush went to war in Iraq, you could never question the patriotism of anyone who was opposed the war.

It is laughable that the same people who mocked and booed President Bush in his last hour as President now want no opposition for President Obama.  If you disagree with him "you're un-American for not wanting your President to succeed."

People that know me know I am a patriot. I love my country as much as the founding fathers did.  That is why when I see a bunch of radical extremists take over the White House and the Congress, backed by a bias media that will not tell the truth.  I do proudly stand in opposition against a force that could permanently damage the country.  I want them to fail so my country can succeed.  

This is getting beyond ridiculous. On Wednesday night I was watching the local news on WCVB Channel 5, an ABC affiliate (big mistake I know but I wanted to hear the weather report). There was a story about a woman in Mansfield,  who was turning 104 and was now the oldest woman in Mansfield. She still walked well and ate anything she wanted.  She had no health problems.  It was a good story.  There was nothing political in the story at all.   

 At the end of the story the two anchors had a discussion about it. In which Ed Harding said “She was born in 1904 when Teddy Roosevelt was President and the greatest news is, in a few days she will be able to enjoy the Inauguration of President Barack Obama along with the rest of us.  That will certainly be a great day that she will remember forever just like we all will right Dick.” To which Dick Albert the weather man said “Yes it will.”

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

Between this and what I have to put up with at Harvard everyday, it is amazing I haven’t lost my mind.

Have a great weekend everyone.

The major criticisms the Democrats have been using against President Bush and The Republicans over the last eight years have to do with too much government spending. This week President-Elect Barack Hussein Obama announced his plan to fix this problem.  He proclaims "The solution is more government spending."   

His plan dubbed the "2009 Fiscal Recovery Plan" because his focus groups told him that is what he should call it.  (See Bill Clinton, 1993)  The plan calls for 778 billion dollars in new spending, (those are his numbers the real number is up around 1.6 trillion) The plan includes infrastructure (see the Big Dig, Boston 1987-2006), education spending with no real reform (See George W. Bush and Ted Kennedy 2001),   bailouts for people who do not know how to manage money (see 2008), and handouts for people who do not pay any taxes (see always and forever).       

He then continues "We have to do this right now, or we risk another Great Depression."  I say "If we do this right now we will cause another Great Depression."   A book that should definitely be required reading for our President- Elect is "The Forgotten Man, A New History of the Great Depression" by Amity Shlaes.  She wrote this book because she did not like the way The Great Depression was being explained and taught.  She thought too many myths and falsehoods were slowly becoming "facts".

Amity Shlaes points out the failures of FDR's New Deal and other spending measures and how they prolonged the Great Depression.

She also explains that some of what President Hoover (you know the President who is now wrongly vilified for his hands off approach) was doing was great and we would have had a much shorter depression had those policies continued.  

"Mister we could use a man, like Herbert Hoover again" (Carroll O'Connor & Jean Stapleton, 1970). 

Anyone who has taken an economics class in high school or college can tell you raising taxes on "rich" people causes "poor" people to lose their jobs.  If you want a stimulus to boost the economy drop the top tax rate from 35% to 23%.   That will actually create jobs and create more taxpayers.   Better yet, create a flat tax of 16% across the board.  You could also implement the "fair tax" otherwise known as the "consumption tax" and get rid of the income tax all together.  These are just some of the good solutions that would actually work.    

Creating more taxes and more government will destroy any chance for economic growth.

It's Sunday afternoon... May God Bless America!
