How many brave American’s will die at the hands of a ruthless enemy because of poor leadership from America’s political leaders? How long will they fight an enemy abroad so that enemy can be treated as a common criminal Americas courts? How many tax payer dollars will be spent on lawyers, housing, trials, etc? How long, assuming these terrorists are convicted, will these terrorists be alive exhausting all their appeals in America’s judicial system? How many brave Americans will die abroad during the trial?
How many Americans will be beholden to the establishment running Washington because they collect a check from the government? How many of these Americans will have the wherewithal to vote against the people handing them money they didn’t work for? How many millions must we spend in the largest expansion of government power ever in the history of our nation? How many duplicate government agencies will we continue to fund?
How many people will transition from private employers to government employment? How many will quit working altogether with the belief that government will support them? How long is the road to socialism, are we there yet, will we know when we get there? How long before they run out of other peoples money? How many leaders, elected or otherwise, will stand up against the socialist tide?
How long until people of courage take back our government? Who will be the Jefferson, Adams, and Washington of the next revolution? Who in congress will put country before party? How long until the other 50% of the electorate see the similarities between our current leaders and Vladimir Lenin, Mao Zedong, Fidel Castro, Adolf Hitler, and Hugo Chavez?
How many will die needlessly? How long will revolution take? Who will lead us from the perils of socialism?
If not you, who? If not now, when?
The title of President of the United States has long been referred to as the most powerful man in the world. This was largely based on the persons role as Commander in Chief of the most powerful military in the world and the fact that this person holds the keys to the deadliest nuclear arsenal ever conceived by man.
In ten short months though it is apparent that Obama is bent on consolidating his political power. He maintains an enemies list that dwarfs the one that drove Nixon from office. He appoints Czars that seem to have unchecked power over all aspects of the private sector. His pay Czar is asserting that he has the power to force private businesses to pay their employees what ever he thinks is “fair”. His minions at the FCC propose to take over control of the internet.
It is clear that Obama strives to control his population in ways that even Hugo Chavez would envy. When will we have a media Czar? He already controls 90% of the media, he has al but declared war on FoxNews. How long before he decides that FoxNews is “threat” to his security and orders them shut down?
How long before he decides what phones you can have, how long before he orders phone companies to remove access to websites that he thinks are against his message, he already has a rubber stamp congress that is telling car makers what cars they can build and sell. He already owns two of the three car companies in the US.
There is no industry that he doesn’t seek to regulate. The price of oil is headed back up again, when it reaches $150 a barrel again next spring we’ll be treated to the obligatory stories about how obscene the oil companies profits are and probably have an energy Czar to determine what is an acceptable level of profit for oil companies as well as the pay for oil company executives.
There will always be certain segments of the population who think that just because it doesn’t affect them it’s ok to regulate it. Sooner or later it affects everyone.
A poll by Rasmussen paints an interesting picture. It paints a picture that Huckabee is leading the horserace to be the GOP nominee in 2012 against Obama. I find this interesting simply because Huckabee is the most like John McCain. Seems like the media is already trying to secure a weak field for Obama in 2012.
Rasmussen’s poll shows Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin at 18% behind Huckabee and Romney who really shouldn’t bother running again. Yet Palin draws thousands everywhere she goes and Huckabee has a hard time drawing a crowd at the county fair. Huckabee draws support from the moderate middle of the road republicans that secured a win for Obama by giving the nomination to McCain in 2008. I doubt that will hold as conservatives will be out in force and the only potential candidate that has shown core conservative beliefs so far is Sarah Palin.
She brings a no nonsense get it done mentality to politics that people identify with. She doesn’t speak like a lawyer like Romney, she doesn’t come off as a kook like Huckabee. She is the only reason that McCain didn’t lose every state except Arizona, and without her he might not have carried that one.
So when the pollsters ask about who should be the GOP nominee they really should be asking who is best prepared to take back America from the grips of socialism, who is best to take back our country from state run media that is rooted in communism? From what I see that clearly is Sarah Palin, she has that unique ability to bring common sense and plain spoken values that people connect with. She doesn’t come off as just reading from talking points like Romney does. She talks to people, talks with people, not at people like they are subjects. She is a great communicator something that we haven’t seen in thirty years.
The media has been working hard to ignore Sarah Palin for the last several months, they are deathly afraid of her as they know she has the ability to beat Obama and that the usual liberal playbook of labeling her a racist won’t have much effect. We don’t need 2007-2008 all over again where we have a field of over ten candidates with only one conservative among them and he gets bounced out after South Carolina. We need get behind Sarah early, we need to make certain that we don’t dilute the voting with more candidates than should really be there.
