I will not be continuing my Creationism posts today. I do not plan to get to them until after the general election in November and not until sometime in 2009.
I do plan to discuss Iraq but not until 2009. Soon after the election on November 4, I plan on taking the rest of the year off from writing the blog to begin writing a second book. I am sorry for the change in plans. Plans, in reality, often are altered for one reason or another. “The best laid plans … often go astray.” Thank you for your understanding and patience.
How many unborn toddlers were murdered today because of the humanistic, paganish, barbaric decisions of the United States Supreme Court?

Thank you! I did Google all three and they can all be retrieved with Google. In fact, the “Dangerous Radicals of the Religious Right” is posted tonight toward the end of the post. It is very good. I also like the slogan. Here is another such slogan that I like: “The unborn have rights and lefts and minds and bodies and souls.”
Wake-up America!!! Who ultimately is in control—GOD or man? Who determines right and wrong—GOD or man? Who controls the weather—GOD or man? Who determines righteousness and sin—GOD or man? Who controls our economy—GOD or man? Who defines good and evil—GOD or man? Who controls what happens to the United States of America—GOD or man?
The three crucial issues in this election are:
1) to END the MURDER of unborn babies
2) to NOT allow HOMOSEXUAL marriages
3) to APPOINT STRICT CONSTRUCTIONIST judges at all levels of the federal court system
Three crucial issues in this election and Barack Hussein Obama is WRONG on ALL three!!!
Barack Hussein Obama has been part of the Chicago Democratic political machine from the beginning of his political career. In his first political race, he was elected to the Illinois State Senate from Chicago. He was elected to the United States Senate from Illinois as a Chicago politician. He is running for the Presidency of the United States as a politician from Chicago.
Despite what the liberal mass media, some economists, and some others would have the public believe: There has been NO recession so far during the Bush administration. By definition, a recession has occurred when there has been two consecutive quarters of a lower Gross Domestic Product (GDP). That simply has not happened. The second quarter GDP grow at about a two percent rate. The preliminary GDP for the third quarter of this year was -.3%. But that is preliminary; the GDP will be readjusted two more times before the final GDP number is determined. Furthermore, the fourth quarter will not be known until 2009. Therefore, by definition, it is impossible at this time to say that we are in a recession.
Furthermore, any aspect of the economy has both positive and negative influences. When gasoline prices were so high, people drove less and the amount of gasoline consumed was less. Also according to reports, highway deaths were less because less people were driving. The high price of gasoline lowered the value of the dollar overseas and the United States, because of our “weaker” dollar, was able to export more goods and services overseas which increased our GDP.
At the present time, home prices, in some parts of the country, are lower than they have been in years and people are decreasing their own use of credit card debt. Why, in the last month alone, I have personally received credit card offers from three different companies to borrow money on my credit card at zero percent interest after paying a 3 percent fee to borrow. Credit card companies are desperately trying to induce people to go into debt.
A basic economic principle is to buy low and sell high. The stock market has lost hundreds of points providing an ideal time to buy stock if the economy is going to turn around at some point. I believe it is more likely to turn around in a McCain administration than a Barack Hussein Obama administration since Barack Hussein Obama is proposing to increase the tax on capital gains and spend more money on “social” programs that will eventually require higher taxes or greater debt.
In short, if one knows what he is doing and has planned accordingly, one can usually prosper in any economy. Some people prospered in the “Great Depression.” The problem is that most consumers do it backwards. When times are good, they spend too much money and go into deep debt. When times are bad, they naturally cut back because of their deep debt and fear of the future. The opposite should be occurring—save during good times and spend during bad times.
Then, when things go bad, who do they blame? Themselves? Of course, not! It is the nefarious government. And yet, the same government that they blame for the economic ills of society; they now demand that that government solve those problems instantly.
News flash. The purpose of government is NOT to control the economy. Over time, no government has been able to control and operate an economy successfully. Just ask the people of the Soviet Union. And yet, we seem to want Barack Hussein Obama (or someone) to come to the rescue on a white horse. Barack Hussein Obama won’t do it and no government will. It usually self corrects but in spite of the government; not because of the government. The government CAN NOT ultimately control supply and demand.
Articles dealing with the economy and the election:
Barack Hussein Obama and his socialistic policies:
“Barack Obama’s Stealth Socialism
By Investor’s Business Daily Posted Monday, July 28, 2008 4:20 PM PT
Election '08: Before friendly audiences, Barack Obama speaks passionately about something called ‘economic justice.’ He uses the term obliquely, though, speaking in code—socialist code.
During his NAACP speech earlier this month, Sen. Obama repeated the term at least four times. ‘I’ve been working my entire adult life to help build an America where economic justice is being served,’ he said at the group’s 99th annual convention in Cincinnati.
And as president, ‘we’ll ensure that economic justice is served,’ he asserted. ‘That’s what this election is about.’ Obama never spelled out the meaning of the term, but he didn’t have to. His audience knew what he meant, judging from its thumping approval.
It’s the rest of the public that remains in the dark, which is why we’re launching this special educational series.
‘Economic justice’ simply means punishing the successful and redistributing their wealth by government fiat. It’s a euphemism for socialism.
In the past, such rhetoric was just that—rhetoric. But Obama’s positioning himself with alarming stealth to put that rhetoric into action on a scale not seen since the birth of the welfare state.
In his latest memoir he shares that he’d like to ‘recast’ the welfare net that FDR and LBJ cast while rolling back what he derisively calls the ‘winner-take-all’ market economy that Ronald Reagan reignited (with record gains in living standards for all).
Obama also talks about ‘restoring fairness to the economy,’ code for soaking the ‘rich’— a segment of society he fails to understand that includes mom-and-pop businesses filing individual income tax returns
It’s clear from a close reading of his two books that he’s a firm believer in class envy. He assumes the economy is a fixed pie, whereby the successful only get rich at the expense of the poor.
Following this discredited Marxist model, he believes government must step in and redistribute pieces of the pie. That requires massive transfers of wealth through government taxing and spending, a return to the entitlement days of old.
Of course, Obama is too smart to try to smuggle such hoary collectivist garbage through the front door. He’s disguising the wealth transfers as ‘investments’—‘to make America more competitive,’ he says, or ‘that give us a fighting change,’ whatever that means.
Among his proposed ‘investments’:
■ ‘Universal,’ ‘guaranteed’ health care.
■ ‘Free’ college tuition
■ ‘Universal national service’ (a la Havana)
■ ‘Universal 401(k)’s’ (in which the government would match contributions made by ‘low-and moderate income families’)
■ ‘Free’ job training (even for criminals)
■ ‘Wage insurance’ (to supplement dislocated union workers’ old income levels)
■ ‘Free’ child care and ‘universal’ preschool
■ More subsidized public housing
■ A fatter earned income tax credit for ‘working poor’
■ And even a Global Poverty Act that amounts to a Marshall Plan for the Third World, first and foremost Africa
His new New Deal also guarantees a ‘living wage,’ with a $10 minimum wage indexed to inflation; and ‘fair trade’ and ‘fair labor practices,’ with breaks for ‘patriot employers’ who cow-tow to unions, and sticks for ‘nonpatriot’ companies that don’t.
That’s just for starters—first-term stuff.
Obama doesn’t stop with socialized health care. He wants to socialize your entire human resources department—from payrolls to pensions. His social-microengineering even extends to mandating all employers provide seven paid sick days per year to salary and hourly workers alike.
You can see why Obama was ranked, hands-down, the most liberal member of the Senate by the National Journal. Some, including colleague and presidential challenger John McCain, think he’s the most liberal member in Congress.
But could he really be ‘more left,’ as McCain recently remarked, than self-described socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (for whom Obama has openly campaigned, even making a special trip to Vermont to rally voters)? Obama’s voting record, going back to his days in the Illinois statehouse, says yes. His career path—and those who guided it—leads to the same unsettling conclusion.
The seeds of his far-left ideology were planted in his formative years as a teenager in Hawaii—and they were far more radical than any biography or profile in the media has portrayed.
A careful reading of Obama’s first memoir, ‘Dreams From My Father,’ reveals that his childhood mentor up to age 18—a man he cryptically refers to as ‘Frank’—was none other than the late communist Frank Marshall Davis, who fled Chicago after the FBI and Congress opened investigations into his ‘subversive’, ‘un-American activities.’
As Obama was preparing to head off to college, he sat at Davis’ feet in his Waikiki bungalow for nightly bull sessions. Davis plied his impressionable guest with liberal doses of whiskey and advice, including: Never trust the white establishment.
‘They’ll train you so good,’ he said, ‘you’ll start believing what they tell you about equal opportunity and the American way and all that (expletive deleted by me—my addition)’
After college, where he palled around with Marxist professors and took in socialist conferences ‘for inspiration,’ Obama followed in Davis’ footsteps, becoming a ‘community organizer in Chicago.
His boss there was Gerald Kellman, whose identity Obama also tries to hide in his book. Turns out Kellman’s a disciple of the late Saul ‘The Red’ Alinsky, a hard-boiled Chicago socialist who wrote the ‘Rules for Radicals’ and agitated for social revolution in America.
The Chicago-based Woods Fund provided Kellman with his original $25,000 to hire Obama. In turn, Obama would later serve on the Woods board with terrorist Bill Ayers of the Weather Underground. Ayers was one of Obama’s early political supporters.
After three years agitating with marginal success for more welfare programs in South Side Chicago, Obama decided he would need to study law to ‘bring about real change’—on a large scale.
While at Harvard Law School, he still found time to hone his organizing skills. For example, he spent eight days in Los Angeles taking a national training course taught by Alinsky’s Industrial Areas Foundation. With his newly minted law degree, he returned to Chicago to reapply—as well as teach—Alinsky’s ‘agitation’ tactics.
(A video-streamed bio on Obama’s Web site includes a photo of him teaching in a University of Chicago classroom. If you freeze the frame and look closely at the blackboard Obama is writing on, you can make out the words ‘Power Analysis’ and ‘Relationships Built on Self Interest’—terms right out of Alinsky’s rule book.)
Amid all this, Obama reunited with his late father’s communist tribe in Kenya, the Luo, during trips to Africa.
As a Nairobi bureaucrat, Barack Hussein Obama Sr., a Harvard-educated economist, grew to challenge the ruling pro-Western government for not being socialist enough. In an eight-page scholarly paper published in 1965, he argued for eliminating private farming and nationalizing businesses ‘owned by Asians and Europeans.’
His ideas for communist-style expropriation didn’t stop there. He also proposed massive taxes on the rich to ‘redistribute our economic gains to the benefit of all.’
‘Theoretically, there is nothing that can stop the government from taxing 100% of income so long as the people get benefits from the government commensurate with their income which is taxed,’ Obama Sr. wrote. ‘I do not see why the government cannot tax those who have more and syphon some of these revenues into savings which can be utilized in investment for future development.’
Taxes and ‘investment’ … the fruit truly does not fall far from the vine.
(Voters might also be interested to know that Obama, the supposed straight shooter, does not once mention his father’s communist leanings in an entire book dedicated to his memory.)
In Kenya’s recent civil unrest, Obama privately phoned the leader of the opposition Luo tribe, Raila Odinga, to voice his support. Odinga is so committed to communism he named his oldest son after Fidel Castro.
With his African identity sewn up, Obama returned to Chicago and fell under the spell of an Afrocentric pastor. It was a natural attraction. The Rev. Jeremiah Wright preaches a Marxist version of Christianity called ‘black liberation theology’ and has supported communists in Cuba, Nicaragua and elsewhere.
Obama joined Wright’s militant church, pledging allegiance to a system of ‘black values’ that demonizes white ‘middle classness’ and other mainstream pursuits.
(Obama in his first book, published in 1995, calls such values ‘sensible.’ There’s no mention of them in his new book.)
With the large church behind him, Obama decided to run for political office, where he could organize for ‘change’ more effectively. ‘As an elected official,’ he said, ‘I could bring church and community leaders together easier than I could as a community organizer or lawyer.’
He could also exercise real, top-down power, the kind that grass-roots activists lack. Alinsky would be proud.
Throughout his career, Obama has worked closely with a network of stone-cold socialists and full-blown communists striving for ‘economic justice.’
He’s been traveling in an orbit of collectivism that runs from Nairobi to Honolulu, and on through Chicago to Washington.
Yet a recent AP poll found only 6% of Americans would describe Obama as ‘liberal,’ let alone socialist.
Public opinion polls usually reflect media opinion, and the media by and large have portrayed Obama as a moderate ‘outsider’ (the No. 1 term survey respondents associate him with) who will bring a ‘breath of fresh air’ to Washington.
The few who have drilled down on his radical roots have tended to downplay or pooh-pooh them. Even skeptics have failed to connect the dots for fear of being called the dreaded ‘r’ word.
But too much is at stake in this election to continue mincing words.
Both a historic banking crisis and 1970s-style stagflation loom over the economy. Democrats, who already control Congress, now threaten to filibuster-proof the Senate in what could be a watershed election for them—at both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue.
A perfect storm of statism is forming, and our economic freedoms are at serious risk.
Those who care less about looking politically correct than preserving the free-market individualism that’s made this country great have to start calling things by their proper name to avert long-term disaster.”

“TO ALL MY FRIENDS—LIBERAL OR CONSERVATIVE—FYI only:
George Bush has been in office for 7 1/2 years. The first six the economy was fine. A little over one year ago:
1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high
2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon
3) the unemployment rate was 4.5%
4) the DOW JONES hit a record high—14,000 +
5) American’s were buying new cars, taking cruises, vacations overseas, living large!
But Americans wanted ‘CHANGE’! So, in 2006 they voted in a Democratic Congress and yes—we got ‘CHANGE’ all right. In the PAST YEAR:
1) Consumer confidence has plummeted.
2) Gasoline was over $4 a gallon & staying high priced.
3) Unemployment is up to 5.5% (a 10% increase).
4) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $12 TRILLION DOLLARS and prices still dropping; (paper change—the only value that counts is the value of the home when it is sold—my addition.)
5) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.
6) as I write, THE DOW is probing another low~~ $2.5 TRILLION DOLLARS HAS EVAPORATED FROM THEIR STOCKS, BONDS & MUTUAL FUNDS INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS!
YES, IN 2006 AMERICA VOTED FOR CHANGE—AND WE SURE GOT IT!
REMEMBER THE PRESIDENT HAS NO CONTROL OVER ANY OF THESE ISSUES, ONLY CONGRESS. (Congress passes all laws; the President enforces the laws—my addition)
AND WHAT HAS CONGRESS DONE IN THE LAST TWO YEARS, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. (Absolutely nothing that has been very beneficial. De-regulation is not the problem. One of the problems is that Congress emphasized home ownership and encouraged people to buy homes who could not afford to by emphasizing no money down and subprime mortgages. This is a simplified statement of a complex topic but it is fundamentally correct—my addition.)
NOW THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT CLAIMS HE IS GOING TO REALLY GIVE US CHANGE ALONG WITH A DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS!!!!
JUST HOW MUCH MORE ‘CHANGE’ DO YOU THINK YOU CAN STAND?”

“The other night I went out to dinner and I passed one of the homeless guys near the restaurant, with a sign that read ‘Vote Obama, I need the money.’
Once in the restaurant I noticed my waitress had on an ‘Obama 08’Button. When the bill came, I decided not to tip the waitress and explained to her that while she had given me exceptional service, the button she was wearing made me feel she obviously believes in Senator Obama’s plan to redistribute the wealth. I told her I was going to redistribute her tip to someone who I deemed was more in need—the homeless guy outside.
She stood there in disbelief then angrily stormed away.
I went outside, gave the homeless guy $5 and told him to thank the waitress inside, as I had decided he could use the money more. The homeless guy looked at me in disbelief, but seemed grateful.
As I got my car, I realized this rather unscientific Redistribution Experiment had left the homeless guy quite happy for the money he did not earn, but the waitress was pretty angry that I gave away the money she did earn.
Well, I guess this redistribution of wealth thing is going to take awhile to catch on—at least with those doing the actual work.”

“Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.” Galatians 6: 7-8 (NIV)
Remember this: NO public opinion poll has ever voted. An election is not decided UNITL the votes are counted.
The three crucial issues in this election are:
1) to END the MURDER of unborn babies
2) to NOT allow HOMOSEXUAL marriages
3) to APPOINT STRICT CONSTRUCTIONIST judges at all levels of the federal court system
Three crucial issues in this election and Barack Hussein Obama is WRONG on ALL three!!!
“Dangerous Radicals of the Religious right!
By Dave MacPherson
[quotes are from Vital Quotations by Emerson West]
01) ROBERT E. LEE: ‘In all my perplexities and distresses, the Bible has never failed to give me light and strength.’ (p. 21)
02) DANIEL WEBSTER: ‘If we abide by the principles taught in the Bible, our country will go on prospering and to prosper.’ (p. 21)
03) JOHN QUINCY ADAMS: ‘I have made it a practice for several years to read the Bible through in the course of every year.’ (p. 22)
04) ABRAHAM LINCOLN: ‘I believe the Bible is the best gift God has ever given to man. All the good from the Saviour of the world is communicated to us through this book.’ (p. 22)
05) GEORGE WASHINGTON: ‘It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.’ (p. 22)
06) HORACE GREELEY: ‘It is impossible to mentally or socially enslave a Bible-reading people.’ (p. 23)
07) THOMAS JEFFERSON: ‘I hold the precepts of Jesus as delivered by himself to be the most pure, benevolent, and sublime which have ever been preached to man. I adhere to the principles of the first age; and consider all subsequent innovations as corruptions of this religion, having no foundation in what came from him.’ (p. 45)
08) THOMAS JEFFERSON: ‘Had the doctrines of Jesus been preached always as pure as they came from his lips, the whole civilized world would by now have become Christian.’ (p. 47)
09) BENJAMIN FRANKLIN: ‘As to Jesus of Nazareth, my opinion of whom you particularly desire, I think the system of morals and his religion, as he left them to us, is the best the world ever saw, or is likely to see.’ (p.49)
10) WOODROW WILSON: ‘The sum of the whole matter is this—that our civilization cannot survive materially unless it be redeemed spiritually. It can only be saved by becoming permeated with the spirit of Christ and being made free and happy by practices which spring out of that spirit.’ (p. 143)
11) PATRICK HENRY: ‘There is a just God who presides over the destiny of nations.’ (p. 145)
12) THOMAS JEFFERSON: ‘Material abundance without character is the surest way to destruction.’ (p. 225)
13) THOMAS JEFFERSON: ‘Of all the systems of morality, ancient or modern, which have come under my observation, none appear to me so pure as that of Jesus.’ (p. 237)
14) GEORGE WASHINGTON: ‘The foolish and wicked practice of profane cursing and swearing is a vice so mean and low, that every person of sense and character detests and despises it.’ (p. 283) (I wasn’t going to comment on these but I have to for this one. Compare this comment with what is heard every day on TV and in the movies and you have some small idea of how far we have fallen as a nation! How can we expect GOD to continue to bless such a depraved nation! So depraved that we MURDER over 3,000 unborn babies every day of the year! AND SOME DECLARE IT TO BE A “RIGHT”! WAKE-UP AMERICA! WAKE-UP CHRISTIANS!—my addition)
15) BENJAMIN FRANKLIN: ‘Here is my creed. I believe in one God, the Creator of the universe. That he governs it by his Providence. That he ought to be worshiped.’ (p. 301)
16) CALVIN COOLIDGE: ‘The strength of a country is the strength of its religious convictions.’ (p. 305)
17) GEORGE WASHINGTON: ‘The perpetuity of this nation depends upon the religious education of the young.’ (p. 306)
Prior to our increasingly ‘Hell-Bound and Happy’ era, America’s greatest leaders were part of the (gulp) Religious Right! Today we have forgotten God’s threat (to abort America) in Psalm 50: 22—‘Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.’”
I’m going to quote a larger section of that Psalm:
“But to the wicked, God says: ‘What right have you to recite my laws or take my covenant on your lips? You hate my instruction and cast my words behind you. When you see a thief, you join with him; you throw in your lot with adulterers. You use your mouth for evil and harness your mouth to deceit. (Does that sound like Barack Hussein Obama? I will explain in a latter article why I am now going to use his middle name—my addition.) You speak continually against your brother and slander your own mother’s son. These things you have done and I kept silent; you thought I was altogether like you. But I will rebuke you and accuse you to your face. Consider this, you who forget God, or I will tear you to pieces, with none to rescue….’” Psalm 50: 16-22 (NIV)
“Thus, in 1789 President Washington issued ‘The First Thanksgiving Proclamation of the United States,’ which he began with these words, ‘Whereas, it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits and humbly implore His protection and favor ….’”
“But the forces of unbelief that have moved in to control American life, would remove every influence of God among us. We are reminded of the statement by William Penn that, ‘If we are not governed by God, we will be ruled by tyrants.’”
“Rather He pronounced a blessing on ‘the nation whose God is the Lord.’ (Psalm 33: 12)
“He promised that his eye would be ‘upon those who fear him.’” (Psalm 33: 18)
“He has said, ‘Righteousness exalts a nation; but sin is a reproach (or a disgrace) to any people.’” (Proverbs 14: 34)
“‘Not until I went into the churches of America and heard her pulpits aflame with righteousness did I understand the secret of her genius and power.’”
“Without the influence of Divine Providence, believers will be disenfranchised and America will fall as other great societies in the past have done, from within.”
“Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.” Galatians 6: 7-8 (NIV)

Also Yahoo “God to Same-Sexers: Hurry Up” and “Dangerous Radicals of the Religious Right.” And here’s a new pro-life slogan: “Unborn children should have the same right to be born alive that abortionists had!”

Thank you! I did Google all three and they can all be retrieved with Google. In fact, the “Dangerous Radicals of the Religious Right” is posted tonight toward the end of the post. It is very good. I also like the slogan. Here is another such slogan that I like: “The unborn have rights and lefts and minds and bodies and souls.”
Wake-up America!!! Who ultimately is in control—GOD or man? Who determines right and wrong—GOD or man? Who controls the weather—GOD or man? Who determines righteousness and sin—GOD or man? Who controls our economy—GOD or man? Who defines good and evil—GOD or man? Who controls what happens to the United States of America—GOD or man?
The three crucial issues in this election are:
1) to END the MURDER of unborn babies
2) to NOT allow HOMOSEXUAL marriages
3) to APPOINT STRICT CONSTRUCTIONIST judges at all levels of the federal court system
Three crucial issues in this election and Barack Hussein Obama is WRONG on ALL three!!!
Barack Hussein Obama has been part of the Chicago Democratic political machine from the beginning of his political career. In his first political race, he was elected to the Illinois State Senate from Chicago. He was elected to the United States Senate from Illinois as a Chicago politician. He is running for the Presidency of the United States as a politician from Chicago.
Despite what the liberal mass media, some economists, and some others would have the public believe: There has been NO recession so far during the Bush administration. By definition, a recession has occurred when there has been two consecutive quarters of a lower Gross Domestic Product (GDP). That simply has not happened. The second quarter GDP grow at about a two percent rate. The preliminary GDP for the third quarter of this year was -.3%. But that is preliminary; the GDP will be readjusted two more times before the final GDP number is determined. Furthermore, the fourth quarter will not be known until 2009. Therefore, by definition, it is impossible at this time to say that we are in a recession.
Furthermore, any aspect of the economy has both positive and negative influences. When gasoline prices were so high, people drove less and the amount of gasoline consumed was less. Also according to reports, highway deaths were less because less people were driving. The high price of gasoline lowered the value of the dollar overseas and the United States, because of our “weaker” dollar, was able to export more goods and services overseas which increased our GDP.
At the present time, home prices, in some parts of the country, are lower than they have been in years and people are decreasing their own use of credit card debt. Why, in the last month alone, I have personally received credit card offers from three different companies to borrow money on my credit card at zero percent interest after paying a 3 percent fee to borrow. Credit card companies are desperately trying to induce people to go into debt.
A basic economic principle is to buy low and sell high. The stock market has lost hundreds of points providing an ideal time to buy stock if the economy is going to turn around at some point. I believe it is more likely to turn around in a McCain administration than a Barack Hussein Obama administration since Barack Hussein Obama is proposing to increase the tax on capital gains and spend more money on “social” programs that will eventually require higher taxes or greater debt.
In short, if one knows what he is doing and has planned accordingly, one can usually prosper in any economy. Some people prospered in the “Great Depression.” The problem is that most consumers do it backwards. When times are good, they spend too much money and go into deep debt. When times are bad, they naturally cut back because of their deep debt and fear of the future. The opposite should be occurring—save during good times and spend during bad times.
Then, when things go bad, who do they blame? Themselves? Of course, not! It is the nefarious government. And yet, the same government that they blame for the economic ills of society; they now demand that that government solve those problems instantly.
News flash. The purpose of government is NOT to control the economy. Over time, no government has been able to control and operate an economy successfully. Just ask the people of the Soviet Union. And yet, we seem to want Barack Hussein Obama (or someone) to come to the rescue on a white horse. Barack Hussein Obama won’t do it and no government will. It usually self corrects but in spite of the government; not because of the government. The government CAN NOT ultimately control supply and demand.

Barack Hussein Obama and his socialistic policies:
“Barack Obama’s Stealth Socialism
By Investor’s Business Daily Posted Monday, July 28, 2008 4:20 PM PT
Election '08: Before friendly audiences, Barack Obama speaks passionately about something called ‘economic justice.’ He uses the term obliquely, though, speaking in code—socialist code.
During his NAACP speech earlier this month, Sen. Obama repeated the term at least four times. ‘I’ve been working my entire adult life to help build an America where economic justice is being served,’ he said at the group’s 99th annual convention in Cincinnati.
And as president, ‘we’ll ensure that economic justice is served,’ he asserted. ‘That’s what this election is about.’ Obama never spelled out the meaning of the term, but he didn’t have to. His audience knew what he meant, judging from its thumping approval.
It’s the rest of the public that remains in the dark, which is why we’re launching this special educational series.
‘Economic justice’ simply means punishing the successful and redistributing their wealth by government fiat. It’s a euphemism for socialism.
In the past, such rhetoric was just that—rhetoric. But Obama’s positioning himself with alarming stealth to put that rhetoric into action on a scale not seen since the birth of the welfare state.
In his latest memoir he shares that he’d like to ‘recast’ the welfare net that FDR and LBJ cast while rolling back what he derisively calls the ‘winner-take-all’ market economy that Ronald Reagan reignited (with record gains in living standards for all).
Obama also talks about ‘restoring fairness to the economy,’ code for soaking the ‘rich’— a segment of society he fails to understand that includes mom-and-pop businesses filing individual income tax returns
It’s clear from a close reading of his two books that he’s a firm believer in class envy. He assumes the economy is a fixed pie, whereby the successful only get rich at the expense of the poor.
Following this discredited Marxist model, he believes government must step in and redistribute pieces of the pie. That requires massive transfers of wealth through government taxing and spending, a return to the entitlement days of old.
Of course, Obama is too smart to try to smuggle such hoary collectivist garbage through the front door. He’s disguising the wealth transfers as ‘investments’—‘to make America more competitive,’ he says, or ‘that give us a fighting change,’ whatever that means.
Among his proposed ‘investments’:
■ ‘Universal,’ ‘guaranteed’ health care.
■ ‘Free’ college tuition
■ ‘Universal national service’ (a la Havana)
■ ‘Universal 401(k)’s’ (in which the government would match contributions made by ‘low-and moderate income families’)
■ ‘Free’ job training (even for criminals)
■ ‘Wage insurance’ (to supplement dislocated union workers’ old income levels)
■ ‘Free’ child care and ‘universal’ preschool
■ More subsidized public housing
■ A fatter earned income tax credit for ‘working poor’
■ And even a Global Poverty Act that amounts to a Marshall Plan for the Third World, first and foremost Africa
His new New Deal also guarantees a ‘living wage,’ with a $10 minimum wage indexed to inflation; and ‘fair trade’ and ‘fair labor practices,’ with breaks for ‘patriot employers’ who cow-tow to unions, and sticks for ‘nonpatriot’ companies that don’t.
That’s just for starters—first-term stuff.
Obama doesn’t stop with socialized health care. He wants to socialize your entire human resources department—from payrolls to pensions. His social-microengineering even extends to mandating all employers provide seven paid sick days per year to salary and hourly workers alike.
You can see why Obama was ranked, hands-down, the most liberal member of the Senate by the National Journal. Some, including colleague and presidential challenger John McCain, think he’s the most liberal member in Congress.
But could he really be ‘more left,’ as McCain recently remarked, than self-described socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (for whom Obama has openly campaigned, even making a special trip to Vermont to rally voters)? Obama’s voting record, going back to his days in the Illinois statehouse, says yes. His career path—and those who guided it—leads to the same unsettling conclusion.
The seeds of his far-left ideology were planted in his formative years as a teenager in Hawaii—and they were far more radical than any biography or profile in the media has portrayed.
A careful reading of Obama’s first memoir, ‘Dreams From My Father,’ reveals that his childhood mentor up to age 18—a man he cryptically refers to as ‘Frank’—was none other than the late communist Frank Marshall Davis, who fled Chicago after the FBI and Congress opened investigations into his ‘subversive’, ‘un-American activities.’
As Obama was preparing to head off to college, he sat at Davis’ feet in his Waikiki bungalow for nightly bull sessions. Davis plied his impressionable guest with liberal doses of whiskey and advice, including: Never trust the white establishment.
‘They’ll train you so good,’ he said, ‘you’ll start believing what they tell you about equal opportunity and the American way and all that (expletive deleted by me—my addition)’
After college, where he palled around with Marxist professors and took in socialist conferences ‘for inspiration,’ Obama followed in Davis’ footsteps, becoming a ‘community organizer in Chicago.
His boss there was Gerald Kellman, whose identity Obama also tries to hide in his book. Turns out Kellman’s a disciple of the late Saul ‘The Red’ Alinsky, a hard-boiled Chicago socialist who wrote the ‘Rules for Radicals’ and agitated for social revolution in America.
The Chicago-based Woods Fund provided Kellman with his original $25,000 to hire Obama. In turn, Obama would later serve on the Woods board with terrorist Bill Ayers of the Weather Underground. Ayers was one of Obama’s early political supporters.
After three years agitating with marginal success for more welfare programs in South Side Chicago, Obama decided he would need to study law to ‘bring about real change’—on a large scale.
While at Harvard Law School, he still found time to hone his organizing skills. For example, he spent eight days in Los Angeles taking a national training course taught by Alinsky’s Industrial Areas Foundation. With his newly minted law degree, he returned to Chicago to reapply—as well as teach—Alinsky’s ‘agitation’ tactics.
(A video-streamed bio on Obama’s Web site includes a photo of him teaching in a University of Chicago classroom. If you freeze the frame and look closely at the blackboard Obama is writing on, you can make out the words ‘Power Analysis’ and ‘Relationships Built on Self Interest’—terms right out of Alinsky’s rule book.)
Amid all this, Obama reunited with his late father’s communist tribe in Kenya, the Luo, during trips to Africa.
As a Nairobi bureaucrat, Barack Hussein Obama Sr., a Harvard-educated economist, grew to challenge the ruling pro-Western government for not being socialist enough. In an eight-page scholarly paper published in 1965, he argued for eliminating private farming and nationalizing businesses ‘owned by Asians and Europeans.’
His ideas for communist-style expropriation didn’t stop there. He also proposed massive taxes on the rich to ‘redistribute our economic gains to the benefit of all.’
‘Theoretically, there is nothing that can stop the government from taxing 100% of income so long as the people get benefits from the government commensurate with their income which is taxed,’ Obama Sr. wrote. ‘I do not see why the government cannot tax those who have more and syphon some of these revenues into savings which can be utilized in investment for future development.’
Taxes and ‘investment’ … the fruit truly does not fall far from the vine.
(Voters might also be interested to know that Obama, the supposed straight shooter, does not once mention his father’s communist leanings in an entire book dedicated to his memory.)
In Kenya’s recent civil unrest, Obama privately phoned the leader of the opposition Luo tribe, Raila Odinga, to voice his support. Odinga is so committed to communism he named his oldest son after Fidel Castro.
With his African identity sewn up, Obama returned to Chicago and fell under the spell of an Afrocentric pastor. It was a natural attraction. The Rev. Jeremiah Wright preaches a Marxist version of Christianity called ‘black liberation theology’ and has supported communists in Cuba, Nicaragua and elsewhere.
Obama joined Wright’s militant church, pledging allegiance to a system of ‘black values’ that demonizes white ‘middle classness’ and other mainstream pursuits.
(Obama in his first book, published in 1995, calls such values ‘sensible.’ There’s no mention of them in his new book.)
With the large church behind him, Obama decided to run for political office, where he could organize for ‘change’ more effectively. ‘As an elected official,’ he said, ‘I could bring church and community leaders together easier than I could as a community organizer or lawyer.’
He could also exercise real, top-down power, the kind that grass-roots activists lack. Alinsky would be proud.
Throughout his career, Obama has worked closely with a network of stone-cold socialists and full-blown communists striving for ‘economic justice.’
He’s been traveling in an orbit of collectivism that runs from Nairobi to Honolulu, and on through Chicago to Washington.
Yet a recent AP poll found only 6% of Americans would describe Obama as ‘liberal,’ let alone socialist.
Public opinion polls usually reflect media opinion, and the media by and large have portrayed Obama as a moderate ‘outsider’ (the No. 1 term survey respondents associate him with) who will bring a ‘breath of fresh air’ to Washington.
The few who have drilled down on his radical roots have tended to downplay or pooh-pooh them. Even skeptics have failed to connect the dots for fear of being called the dreaded ‘r’ word.
But too much is at stake in this election to continue mincing words.
Both a historic banking crisis and 1970s-style stagflation loom over the economy. Democrats, who already control Congress, now threaten to filibuster-proof the Senate in what could be a watershed election for them—at both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue.
A perfect storm of statism is forming, and our economic freedoms are at serious risk.
Those who care less about looking politically correct than preserving the free-market individualism that’s made this country great have to start calling things by their proper name to avert long-term disaster.”

“TO ALL MY FRIENDS—LIBERAL OR CONSERVATIVE—FYI only:
George Bush has been in office for 7 1/2 years. The first six the economy was fine. A little over one year ago:
1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high
2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon
3) the unemployment rate was 4.5%
4) the DOW JONES hit a record high—14,000 +
5) American’s were buying new cars, taking cruises, vacations overseas, living large!
But Americans wanted ‘CHANGE’! So, in 2006 they voted in a Democratic Congress and yes—we got ‘CHANGE’ all right. In the PAST YEAR:
1) Consumer confidence has plummeted.
2) Gasoline was over $4 a gallon & staying high priced.
3) Unemployment is up to 5.5% (a 10% increase).
4) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $12 TRILLION DOLLARS and prices still dropping; (paper change—the only value that counts is the value of the home when it is sold—my addition.)
5) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.
6) as I write, THE DOW is probing another low~~ $2.5 TRILLION DOLLARS HAS EVAPORATED FROM THEIR STOCKS, BONDS & MUTUAL FUNDS INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS!
YES, IN 2006 AMERICA VOTED FOR CHANGE—AND WE SURE GOT IT!
REMEMBER THE PRESIDENT HAS NO CONTROL OVER ANY OF THESE ISSUES, ONLY CONGRESS. (Congress passes all laws; the President enforces the laws—my addition)
AND WHAT HAS CONGRESS DONE IN THE LAST TWO YEARS, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. (Absolutely nothing that has been very beneficial. De-regulation is not the problem. One of the problems is that Congress emphasized home ownership and encouraged people to buy homes who could not afford to by emphasizing no money down and subprime mortgages. This is a simplified statement of a complex topic but it is fundamentally correct—my addition.)
NOW THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT CLAIMS HE IS GOING TO REALLY GIVE US CHANGE ALONG WITH A DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS!!!!
JUST HOW MUCH MORE ‘CHANGE’ DO YOU THINK YOU CAN STAND?”

“The other night I went out to dinner and I passed one of the homeless guys near the restaurant, with a sign that read ‘Vote Obama, I need the money.’
Once in the restaurant I noticed my waitress had on an ‘Obama 08’Button. When the bill came, I decided not to tip the waitress and explained to her that while she had given me exceptional service, the button she was wearing made me feel she obviously believes in Senator Obama’s plan to redistribute the wealth. I told her I was going to redistribute her tip to someone who I deemed was more in need—the homeless guy outside.
She stood there in disbelief then angrily stormed away.
I went outside, gave the homeless guy $5 and told him to thank the waitress inside, as I had decided he could use the money more. The homeless guy looked at me in disbelief, but seemed grateful.
As I got my car, I realized this rather unscientific Redistribution Experiment had left the homeless guy quite happy for the money he did not earn, but the waitress was pretty angry that I gave away the money she did earn.
Well, I guess this redistribution of wealth thing is going to take awhile to catch on—at least with those doing the actual work.”
Rule Chicago, rule Illinois, rule the nation.
Ruin Chicago, ruin Illinois, ruin the nation.
ARE people so BLIND that they can NOT or WILL NOT recognize the media created modern day pied piper?
“Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.” Galatians 6: 7-8 (NIV)
Remember this: NO public opinion poll has ever voted. An election is not decided UNITL the votes are counted.
The three crucial issues in this election are:
1) to END the MURDER of unborn babies
2) to NOT allow HOMOSEXUAL marriages
3) to APPOINT STRICT CONSTRUCTIONIST judges at all levels of the federal court system
Three crucial issues in this election and Barack Hussein Obama is WRONG on ALL three!!!
“Dangerous Radicals of the Religious right!

01) ROBERT E. LEE: ‘In all my perplexities and distresses, the Bible has never failed to give me light and strength.’ (p. 21)
02) DANIEL WEBSTER: ‘If we abide by the principles taught in the Bible, our country will go on prospering and to prosper.’ (p. 21)
03) JOHN QUINCY ADAMS: ‘I have made it a practice for several years to read the Bible through in the course of every year.’ (p. 22)
04) ABRAHAM LINCOLN: ‘I believe the Bible is the best gift God has ever given to man. All the good from the Saviour of the world is communicated to us through this book.’ (p. 22)
05) GEORGE WASHINGTON: ‘It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.’ (p. 22)
06) HORACE GREELEY: ‘It is impossible to mentally or socially enslave a Bible-reading people.’ (p. 23)
07) THOMAS JEFFERSON: ‘I hold the precepts of Jesus as delivered by himself to be the most pure, benevolent, and sublime which have ever been preached to man. I adhere to the principles of the first age; and consider all subsequent innovations as corruptions of this religion, having no foundation in what came from him.’ (p. 45)
08) THOMAS JEFFERSON: ‘Had the doctrines of Jesus been preached always as pure as they came from his lips, the whole civilized world would by now have become Christian.’ (p. 47)
09) BENJAMIN FRANKLIN: ‘As to Jesus of Nazareth, my opinion of whom you particularly desire, I think the system of morals and his religion, as he left them to us, is the best the world ever saw, or is likely to see.’ (p.49)
10) WOODROW WILSON: ‘The sum of the whole matter is this—that our civilization cannot survive materially unless it be redeemed spiritually. It can only be saved by becoming permeated with the spirit of Christ and being made free and happy by practices which spring out of that spirit.’ (p. 143)

14) GEORGE WASHINGTON: ‘The foolish and wicked practice of profane cursing and swearing is a vice so mean and low, that every person of sense and character detests and despises it.’ (p. 283) (I wasn’t going to comment on these but I have to for this one. Compare this comment with what is heard every day on TV and in the movies and you have some small idea of how far we have fallen as a nation! How can we expect GOD to continue to bless such a depraved nation! So depraved that we MURDER over 3,000 unborn babies every day of the year! AND SOME DECLARE IT TO BE A “RIGHT”! WAKE-UP AMERICA! WAKE-UP CHRISTIANS!—my addition)
15) BENJAMIN FRANKLIN: ‘Here is my creed. I believe in one God, the Creator of the universe. That he governs it by his Providence. That he ought to be worshiped.’ (p. 301)
16) CALVIN COOLIDGE: ‘The strength of a country is the strength of its religious convictions.’ (p. 305)
17) GEORGE WASHINGTON: ‘The perpetuity of this nation depends upon the religious education of the young.’ (p. 306)
Prior to our increasingly ‘Hell-Bound and Happy’ era, America’s greatest leaders were part of the (gulp) Religious Right! Today we have forgotten God’s threat (to abort America) in Psalm 50: 22—‘Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.’”
I’m going to quote a larger section of that Psalm:
“But to the wicked, God says: ‘What right have you to recite my laws or take my covenant on your lips? You hate my instruction and cast my words behind you. When you see a thief, you join with him; you throw in your lot with adulterers. You use your mouth for evil and harness your mouth to deceit. (Does that sound like Barack Hussein Obama? I will explain in a latter article why I am now going to use his middle name—my addition.) You speak continually against your brother and slander your own mother’s son. These things you have done and I kept silent; you thought I was altogether like you. But I will rebuke you and accuse you to your face. Consider this, you who forget God, or I will tear you to pieces, with none to rescue….’” Psalm 50: 16-22 (NIV)
“Thus, in 1789 President Washington issued ‘The First Thanksgiving Proclamation of the United States,’ which he began with these words, ‘Whereas, it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits and humbly implore His protection and favor ….’”
“But the forces of unbelief that have moved in to control American life, would remove every influence of God among us. We are reminded of the statement by William Penn that, ‘If we are not governed by God, we will be ruled by tyrants.’”
“Rather He pronounced a blessing on ‘the nation whose God is the Lord.’ (Psalm 33: 12)
“He promised that his eye would be ‘upon those who fear him.’” (Psalm 33: 18)
“He has said, ‘Righteousness exalts a nation; but sin is a reproach (or a disgrace) to any people.’” (Proverbs 14: 34)
“‘Not until I went into the churches of America and heard her pulpits aflame with righteousness did I understand the secret of her genius and power.’”
“Without the influence of Divine Providence, believers will be disenfranchised and America will fall as other great societies in the past have done, from within.”
“Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.” Galatians 6: 7-8 (NIV)
