Health care and Pres Obama

Hi

Today the congress is debating a health care reform package. There is a divide in congress especially in the democratic side of the aisle. The president is pushing for his version which is socialized medical care for the people but the polls show that people do not want a government take over.

The president has tried to "bribe" the Lou8isiana senator to vote for his version He has done this by promising a great amount of money to Louisiana to help pay for the states share of medicaid and medicare. Is this leadership. Why is the president pushing for a health care reform when the people don't want one. A good leader would reflect the opinion of the people and do the right thing. The president seems to be more interested in his image and taking over the American economy. Where is the change, where is the leadership. Mr Obama has been a disappointment so far. He has not shown any thing except his own ego and a complete disdain for the will of the people. Small wonder that his poll numbers are going down. We deserve better.

The congress people who go along with this "bribe" so not show any leadership or courage either. I thought the pork was being cut out of our spending. I quote John F Kennedy - "Ask not what your country could do for you,,but what could you do for your country". Mister president and members of congress please reread these words and act accordingly.

While we wait for congress to act let us not forget our brave protectors. Pray for them.
GOD Bless

The president and lack of leadership

Hi

Today some one send me an e-mail with a joke. Sadly, the joke rang too true. The joke said that a fast food chain is coming out with an Obama cabinet special chicken meal - all left wings and a**holes. I don't know if I should laugh or cry at the truth behind that joke.

We are faced with a government which is being run by extremely left leaning thinkers. The institutions that we know are under attack and we almost seem powerless to do anything about it. We have to wait until the mid-term elections before the American people speak out. I don't mean to imply that we lost freedom of speech, but we have lost control over how our elected officials vote and govern. The only defense we have is our protection under the Constitution which guarantees our freedom of speech. Exercise that power, let congress know how we feel. Maybe we can sway some wavering congress people and make them reconsider their vote. I certainly hope so.

The president should exercise his power and voice to stop such things as the civilian trial of the terrorists, the failure to investigate ACORN, the meddling with the investigation of the Fort Hood terrorist massacre (the president doesn't want it called an act of terror). The list goes on. For all of you who voted for Obama, are you happy with the direction tha country has taken?

There is still hope. Keep your confidence in America and the American people.

Please continue to pray for our brave service people.
GOD Bless

When do we get a leader?

Hi

I am upset by the actions of both President Obama and Attorney General Holder. Neither of these men seem to show any concern for doing the right thing but rather doing what is politically expedient. I am referring to the trial of the terrorists.

I wish some one could explain to me why they should get treated as American residents when they are nothing but terrorists. By moving the trial to a civilian court and on American soil the terrorists are guaranteed all the same rights as the average "Joe citizen". Does this stink, or what?

It should be obvious to any one with some sense of understanding that the only reason for this is to put Bush on trial. Yes, the ex president. This civil trial will only give the terrorists a sounding board for venting anti American rhetoric. We will hear all about water boarding, sleep deprivation and countless other torture methods employed by our government. It will serve only to reinforce the bad image the outside world has of us. If Obama was a true leader he would put an end to this. But he would rather have the embarament of former president Bush than the protection of the American people. This is not a campaign mode, Obama already has won, now it is time for him to lead. That is what the American people elected him for.

How many people really are satisfied with Obama now?

In the mean time please pray for our brave heroes who defend our nation.
GOD Bless

More government take over

Hi

I read a story )unconfirmed) that the liberal democrats, led by Obama, are talking about a federal seizure of the public transportation systems throughout the United States. If this is so, we have another arrogant move by the administration to socialize the country. What is going on?

The ironic part of this is that the federal government is trying to control the commuter rai systems but they cannot operate Amtrak at a profit. Lost in all of the budget shortfalls is the annual losses of the Amtrak operation. Yes, we pay for it in taxes. Now the talk is to add more rail systems, is this a case of the inmates running the asylum, or what? Why do liberals think that when one of their own gets elected to public office they suddenly get a rush of knowledge about every thing? Personally I think it is an arrogant assertion of the idea that the liberal establishment is smarter than the rest of us.
Many liberals feel that because they have a slew of initials after their name they are the "mental elite". The rest of us are just bumbling idiots who have to be led around by the nose. I cannot believe this attitude. Just think of it, they know how to spend the money we earn, tax us and create government programs that hand our money to some body else. They know that they can better raise our children, after all they are "superior". I think that if we know how to have and raise kids we also know what moral standards we wish to instil in these children.

I have mentioned it before but it requires repeating, the congress had to privitize their own cafeteria. Now they want to run all sorts of businesses. Heaven help us.

We can still remember our brave warriors and pray for them.
GOD Bless

We are a rudderless ship

Hi

This blog will attempt to show that under the Obama administration the United States is like a rudderless ship.

An examination of the facts leads us to draw this conclusion. The generals conducting the War on Terror ask for more troops. Pbama has delayed for months, now he says he will announce his decision. I was under the impression that Obama was capable of making decisions under duress, was I wrong' I shudder to think that both Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden got it right during the presidential primary season, Mr Obama is not capable of answering the "red phone" Current events have brought us to this conclusion.

In other areas the president does not seem to have a handle on what decision to make. The incident with the Massachusetts policeman was one, another is the Fort Hood massacre. He calls one a stupid act but then says we must wait to get all the fact before jumping to any conclusion. Mr Obama, I got news for you - we have the facts, the Fort Hood shooter is an Islamofacist terrorist. Please do something, lead, follow or get the hell out of the way. We deserve better.

Until next time, stay alert. And continue to pray for our brave service people.
GOD Bless

Fort Hood Tragedy

Hi

Before I go any further I would like to give my condolences to the families and loved one of the people of the victims of the Fort Hood tragedy.

The army major who did this is nothing more than a Islamic terrorist, and any one who doesn't see fit to call him that is just a victim of Politically correctness. Too many of our elected officials, media and others just don't get it. The major is Islamic, he got a weapon and finally he carried out a plot to kill innocent and almost defenseless people. If that doesn't fit into the definition of a terrorist, please tell me what does. The liberal establishment does not want to call the war on terror what it is, a war. Get real, the war started when the Iranians took our embassy while Carter was president. It may have lain dormant for a while but it is now rearing its ugly head. Only when the public faces that fact of what it is will we be able to properly carry out the mission of destroying radical Islam. Please make sure to read the word "radical", that is what differentiates yjr radical Islam and the rest of the religion.

I will voice my opinion in future blogs concerning the attitude of our leaders. Stay tunes.

Meanwhile pray for the victims, their families and all of our service people in harm's way.
GOD Bless

I'm back

Hi

I was dormant for a while but now I'm back. I waited to blog because I was biding time while congress went over the medical insurance bill. I should have realized that it would take too long to pass.

My subject is the complete lack of leadership shown by the president. Some one pointed out that Obama is afraid of making a decision about troop levels in Afghanistan. This from the guy who was very critical of every Bush move. What a hypocrite. Obama has proven that both Hillary and Biden were correct when they said he is not prepared to be president. They are singing a different tune these days,and we have to pay the musicians. When are we going to learn to elect statesmen and not politicians? Soon, I hope.

Obama rushed to get the stimulus bill through because he wanted to catch the American people off balance, he did the same with the other bailouts and even the supreme court nomination. This guy is a loser. The only hope for the American people is to vote out congress next year and restore balance to the government.

Mr Obama, where is the leadership? Please reply.

Keep the faith and continue to pray for our troops.
GOD Bless
