  • Selective Justice and Back Room Deals have ruined our country. I don't care what political party has been in power, We know it happens and often.

    The corrupt practices of both parties is sickening. They are so busy padding their own pockets and running for re-election, that No One is minding the store.

    Bradbury: You asked me what would I call it?

    Well, with "McCarthyism" dusted off and put into play by the "New Republican Party", I'd have to call it Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt (FUD) tactics.

  • IF TWISTED FACTS AND INUENDO'S IS SOPPOSED TO CHANGE ANY MINDS OR INFLUENCE IT MISSED THE MARK.........IF we are going to cite and event we need to cite it all not just part of it.The beginning and the ending based on what was written you would think everything cited was condoned and that is neither fact nor truth.Some incidents cited were not the truth and sopposeded rational by the president was not truthfull just the party line.

    There are communist and there are discrimminaters they have always been there and always will be,free men understand that.We dont have to kill them to insure they have no influence.The fear of something we dont fully understand is irrational at best.The same applies to the discriminater.

    If you would take the time to go back and see how our economy had been set up to fail years ago and then consider what the solutions were before we had the major blow up and what had to be done after. Maybe then you could get a different light on it all.Then for exercise go back and see who entered congress a poor person and see what they are worth now.Your house is only as good as your foundation and our foundation had been sorely damaged,the man worked with what he had,and like any contractor I can tell you remodels are harder than building from scratch.YOUR ALWAYS RUNNING INTO SOMETHING NOBODY KNEW ABOUT.......and then the people are living there while your trying to get it done.......sounds like the country to me......food for thought. latter

  • We live under the lie/tale of democracy. The United States is far from a true democracy. At least in places like Cuba and Russia---they know what they have. Here, we pretend. We pretend that we have a say, we pretend that our vote counts and we pretend that we have a Government that represents the people.

    Yep, way too many back room deals/payoffs. Way too much corruptness in our Government and elected officials. And this is what we are teaching the children. Our country is lost.

    You want to see what "our" Government has on the horizon for us---look at all of the money being spent on "detention camps" right here in the US. Look at the martial law legislation being put through by Obama and who will control your water, farm equipment, livestock, etc. if/when "YOUR" Government decides to "take control." Our rights for which this country was founded are being flushed right down the toilet right before our very eyes.

    When this country wakes up and sees Obama and all of his "sheeples" for what they are, it will be too late (could be too late now for that matter). Scary times. We are making history---"change you can believe in" for sure.

  • America is a Republic not a Democracy. We adhere to a democratic process, but we are considered a Republic.

    -- Posted by KH Gal on Fri, Apr 13, 2012, at 10:56 AM
  • Opinion Missy, don't forget the "civilian police force" that Obama also wants, in addition to marital law and gun control. If he gets another four years, these little gems on his bucket list will probably get in full swing. Talk about taking a page out of Hitler's book.

    -- Posted by Second Wind on Fri, Apr 13, 2012, at 10:59 AM
  • Yep Zook---if we "allow" it, we get what we get. If we are dumb enough to vote for another 4 years of change under this terrorist, then we get what we get and darn well deserve it. The shame in all of this is that the people who do not want this have to pay for the sins of the people who are too darn stupid to see what is going on.

    I was reading today about the micro-chip that "our" Government would like everyone to have. What kind of garbage is that?

    Sad times. Yet we allow the "buzzards" to press on. In the real world, you get fired for not doing your job. In the United States, ya run for senate, congress or President.

    -- Posted by OpinionMissy on Fri, Apr 13, 2012, at 11:00 AM
  • "Democratic process." Now there is an interesting term.

    SW, read all about that civilian police force. If the Government sees fit, they will be able to take farm equipment, guns, livestock, vehicles, fuel, your home, etc. and oh well. They can also lock you up, never charge you with anything and keep you---for as long as they see fit (they is used in loose terms). But hey---when they do it, they will take care of ya! You can go to a "detainment camp" of your choice!

    By the time Obama is done, we will have no "rights" other than of course to pay taxes...if you can even find/keep a job.

    And how about all of those caskets in GA that nobody knows anything about? And how about what is going on in Korea?

    The United States is going "meekly."

    I guess we should really be blaming that communist George Washington for all these executive orders. For a man that didn't want to be king, he sure acted like one. He interpreted the constitution to give him the power to issue executive orders and he even used executive orders to create laws. Don't even look at what commrade Lincoln was doing with his executive orders, not to mention the rights he stripped away from people. Then Nixon even had the audacity to immplement affirmative action quotas through an exucutive order. What a bunch of pinkos.

    For people who seem to care about the constituion, you sure complain a lot about things that have been considered constitutional and upheld by the courts pretty much every single time. If you don't like this power, please write your congressman and get an ammendment to constituion going prohibiting this power. Good luck!

    -- Posted by youneedsocialism on Fri, Apr 13, 2012, at 11:35 AM
  • UNS = mole. I did not vote for Lincoln nor Nixon. Affirmative action. Yep, another interesting one that never should have been. Just like lower SAT/ACT requirements for kids in certain schools because they are said to get sub-standard educations.

    Yep...write to congressman. I would rather pull all of my nails with tweezers.

  • NO ZOOK....YOU ARE NOT HAMMERING THEM ALL IF YOU WHERE YOU WOULD HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY ABOUT BOHNER,CANTER AND MC CONNEL.

    Again the rhetoric is that the conservative way is the only way.IT IS NOT.wHY DO YOU HAVE SUCH A PROBLEM WITH ID NOW?? You contend voter fraud but there is none to be found so then we say we are doing it so there wont be any .....whats next???SO we have a problem with excutive orders is it the order or who is issueing it???? nO problem when a republican did it.WHY now?? Affirmative action GOALS BOTHER SOME I guess maintaining the status quao didnt as long as you didnt have to feel the brunt of it.....20 yr old out dated school books dont prepare you to take a test on todays requirments......but it does insure you cant advance.

    DETENTION CAMPS,MARTIAL LAW,ETC THIS IS WHAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO BELIEVE....IT MAKES IT EASIER TO JUSTIFY WHAT YOUR SAYING,EASIER TO DENERGRATE OTHERS WHO ARE NOT LIKE YOU,EASIER TO EVENTUALLY DO THE THINGS YOU ARE RAILING ABOUT NOW...... YOU WONDER WHY SOME OF US SEE YOU WANTING TO ENSURE THAT YOU HAVE SLAVES TO USE......GO BACK AND READ WHAT YOU WROTE......AND BY SLAVES I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT RACE SO BE SURE YOU UNDERSTAND THAT.

    IF you are unwilling to understand the need for some things to change in this country,and see progress as a threat.ASK THIS QUESTION.....WHAT AM I SCARED OF ??? THE best change takes place when we all can see the need and acknowledge the how.THIS PRESIDENT WILL BE YOUR SCAPEGOAT but when it is all said and done YOU CREATED and wanted what happened and as long as YOU were OK IT was OK.

  • SORRY ZOOK.....things are being done to rein in things that have happened and continue to happen.I gUESS YOU WANT SOMEONE TO JUMP UP AND SCREAM ABOUT IT,JUST AS YOU FIND WHAT IS WRONG DO YOU ALSO FIND WHAT IS HAPPENING TO STOP IT OR DONT YOU LOOK?????.I could cite examples of fixes that have been proposed that were just blocked or dismissed I am not screaming about them EXAMPLE....DID YOU KNOW THAT CERTAIN DEPT OF GOVERNMENT CANNOT CHANGE RULES IF THERE IS NO PERMANENT DEPT HEAD????? in othere words they effectivly cannot operate at 100%.And a recess appt will not get it.I would call that sabotage.OUR truck stop solutions are easey we are not beholding to financial backers.

    Personally I dont care what the left or the right says there BOTH ARE OBSTRUCTING and pandering NONE have the GUTS to do whats RIGHT.MAYBE JUST MAYBE IF THERE COULD BE SOMETING THAT IS VIEWED AS POSITIVE BY BOTH SIDES WITHOUT THE PARTY GARBAGE YOU MIGHT GET TO SEE THE REAL PERSON,IT STARTED BEFORE HE TOOK OFFICE AND HAS NEVER NO MATTER WHAT STOPED.It is a wonder he gets anything done.BY undermining him we undermined the nation so we need to look in the mirror.HE is not perfect I didnt expect him to be,

    but by no means is he as bad as he has been made out to be.IT IS WHAT IT IS.

    I dont keep track of what left wingers or right wingers critercize.I do comment on what I percieve to be right or wrong the same as you do,and I try to spread the wealth....smile.

    LAST thought........THEY NEVER THOUGHT HE WOULD WIN.....THEREFORE IT BECAME WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?......NOTHING....... HOW IRONIC..........HAVE A GOOD ONE

  • To OM and SW as well as other technophobes out there. The concept of micro-chipping all US citizens and legal residents is the ultimate ID. Even the US passport can be forged. A micro-chip entered into a national data base would guarantee you are who you say you are, determine if your eligible to vote, and guarantee you don't vote twice. If you don't have a chip, then you are here illegally and you are deported posthaste. So what is your problem with the chip? It is the ultimate solution to all your fears of voter fraud. You can't have it both ways. Either you have total security at the expense of individual freedoms, or you live with the fact that there are those that will break the law. You decide. Either way, what ever the outcome, live with it!

  • Those who call for the chip should get it first?

  • Those who oppose it, quit whining about supposed voter fraud and illegals. It happens to be the only sure fire way of telling who is who.

    What happens when the illegals start killing Americans for their microchips?

    -- Posted by KentuckyTransplant on Sat, Apr 14, 2012, at 1:03 PM
  • KT, you need to learn about bio metrics, Buckshot, you qualify for my previous answer.

    -- Posted by royincaldwell on Sat, Apr 14, 2012, at 1:31 PM
  • Roy, I have no problem with technology---I work with it each and every day. I do have a problem with Government tracking my each and every move. I will be darned if I will have a GPS system flowing through my body just so the Government can see EXACTLY where I am, what I am doing, who I am with, etc. That is one problem with that chip. It is bad enough that we have GPS on cars and cell phones. It is a violation of privacy and if you think for one second that there will not be fraud with chips, you are nuts. The tech geeks and criminals will always find a way to get into the system.

    At this point, voter fraud is really going to be the least of our problems in the country.

    KT, you are correct---there will be death over these chips. There will also be identity theft as well like we have never seen before and problems with medical history being corrupted. Then, they want to add banking info into this. Just think, you could go into WalMart and pay by scanning your body. Does that not sound fun?!?!?! How can anyone see this as ok? Really?

    My horses have micro chips. I elected to do that in the event they were ever lost---most vets will scan an animal during a regular vet check if they do not know the animal or owner. But I will be darned if I will EVER be mandated to get a chip in my body.

    I can understand a chip for child molesters, rapists, terrorists and drug dealers. Those folks should be tracked for the safety of others. However, law abiding citizens do not need to be tracked like dogs.

    I already have trouble when I try to fly. They can chip me at about the same time they come for my guns. It will be a cold day for either if you get my drift. So I guess they can deport me or put me in a camp. At least I will be in good company with some of the people on here with some common sense.

    For those of you Obama lovers out there I ask you this: what has he done that has been good for this country? He is about as anti-American as a person can be---yet you Obamers out there still think he is just swell.

    IQ tests before you can vote.

  • OM, I couldn't have stated it better myself. I can scarcely believe that now these lib bloggers want the government to force inserting microchips in people! Then again, why would I be surprized by these loony libs.

    -- Posted by Second Wind on Sat, Apr 14, 2012, at 4:08 PM
  • Roy, I would suggest you run on down to the library and pick up some of George Orwell's classic works like "1984" and "Animal Farm" to give you a refresher in the dangers of putting to much power in the hands of the government.

    -- Posted by Second Wind on Sat, Apr 14, 2012, at 4:22 PM
  • Both of you! I never said I supported it! I simply pointed out the obvious advantages without pointing out the obvious disadvantages. SW, I am quite well read, thank you. I have probably read books you have never heard of.

    Why is it both of you are always in attack mode?

    -- Posted by royincaldwell on Sat, Apr 14, 2012, at 6:38 PM
  • Roy, why is it when someone disagrees with you, they are in "attack mode"? Nobody was "attacking" you. Your comments about microchipping would lead anyone to believe you support it, sorry if we misunderstood the comments. But, really, do go back and re-read them. And yes, I do believe you have probably read books I have never heard of (or would ever want to hear of).

    -- Posted by Second Wind on Sat, Apr 14, 2012, at 6:55 PM
  • I don't support them! There are times I like to provide both sides of an argument. Going to college and majoring in Business and Philosophy opened many literary windows.

  • Always in attack mode. The was pretty funny. Grow a set already.

    -- Posted by OpinionMissy on Sat, Apr 14, 2012, at 9:22 PM
  • "Live with it" is why we are where we are today. That should be the new slogan for Obama. People not having any "brass ones" is the reason things are such a mess. "Live with it"...

    Another reason to IQ test before people can vote.

    SW, loony libs they are. These are the same people who think Obama has cut taxes for the middle class and created jobs. What a freakin joke.

  • This thread is just another sign that Americans are allergic to fact/objectivity. Just be loud, charismatic, outspoken, and say the right things and some will buy in.

    -- Posted by twilcox1978 on Sun, Apr 15, 2012, at 6:46 PM
  • The word "Communist" has shock value. It gets people to pay attention when they would have glossed over it before. Most have no idea what it really means. they simply take the word of those who come across in adamant, outspoken fashion. If this blowhard says it then he/she must be right?

    Is America being the next USSR? Not quite. Russia of the 1700's on up to Lenin bears absolutely no resemblance to the US today. Historically, the two are completely independent of one another. Making that comparison is just a sign that one has an agenda and is not concerned with the truth.
