Petition Against Rush Limbaugh

Here we go again. Anybody read the article about the Democrats petitioning against Rush Limbaugh? They’re so upset because Rush said that if Obama’s policies promote socialism, then he wants Obama to fail. And I totally agree. Why would anyone want socialist policies to succeed? Except of course those liberals that benefit from them. Democrats are also looking into the Fairness Doctrine, which would all but destroy conservative talk radio.

Is anybody else up in arms about this? We spent the last eight years listening to liberals absolutely tear apart the Bush Administration for the very slightest of things. And now we have an extreme liberal president who is preparing to completely turn our country upside down, and because a prominent conservative voice is against these socialist policies, we’re trying to shut him up completely. These Democrats have no shame. How can people be so blatantly hypocritical and live with themselves? When the Republicans controlled the White House, the Democrats did everything they could to suspend any new policy that came out. And now that the liberals have control, they expect the GOP to lie down and support all their insanely ridiculous policies. I mean, this stimulus package includes $335 million to prevent STDs. What the hell is that about? How about this….don’t freaking sleep around. There. I just saved our country $335 million. Put me in the White House.

Our country was based on some very fundamental rights, and one of those included the right to free speech. Today, free speech only applies to gays and other minorities but does not apply to conservatives. Am I just being overly-critical? Absolutely not. Read the Fairness Doctrine. It’s only intent is to destroy the free speech for those who oppose liberal ideology. That’s not the America that our Founding Fathers foresaw. And it’s not the America that God works so hard to preserve, despite our every attempt to push Him away.

Obama's Grand Economic Recovery Plan

A new week brings new details regarding the proposed economic stimulus package. It just gets more ridiculous every time I read about it. I read a couple articles on DrudgeReport.com about Obama telling the Republicans to stop listening to Rush Limbaugh or nothing will get done. He’s been in office for less than a week and already he’s complaining about conservative talk show hosts. Not even politicians. Talk show hosts. Seriously? Are we back in middle school? “Hey, don’t be his friend. He’s mean.”

Now onto a semi-new topic. I grew up being taught in school that FDR was one of the greatest presidents we’ve had. He was the one who saved us from the Great Depression. It wasn’t until only a couple years ago when I started doing a little research on the guy. He didn’t help anything! If anything, he extended the Depression for another six or seven years after taking office. His New Deal was nothing more than a “sign your lives away to the government and we’ll take care of you” plan. He didn’t what was best for the people who placed him in office. He did what was best or his party. He wanted to make sure that the Democratic Party would remain in power for years after his presidency. And it worked. The Democrats had the majority of the power for the next 50 years. Lesson: unless you’re a big government-loving liberal, FDR was a complete bust of a president.

President Obama (ugh, that sounds awful) is following directly in FDR’s footsteps. His economic plan is aimed at putting more control in the hands of the federal government. He makes all these promises about the lower class being taken care of through free health care blah blah blah (insert rhetoric here). Here’s the thing: anyone with half a functional brain knows that injecting billions, wait, trillions of dollars DOES NOT stimulate the economy. “So what you’re saying, Brad, is that the Democrats pushing for this stimulus package don’t have half of a functional brain?” Not exactly. They know what they’re doing. They’re aware that the economy will not get any better through socialist measures. What they’re doing is re-establishing their long-term reign of power. That’s all. If they had the American people in mind, they would not be further crippling the economy and the consumer by putting the country further in debt.

Last thought: Most of the lower class have been voting Democrat since the time of FDR because the Democrats are supposedly the “Poor People’s Party.” Here’s the thing. 50 years of poor, urban people voting Democrat, THEY’RE STILL POOR! You know what they say about people who keep making the same mistake over and over again….

Yesterday's Inauguration

I did my best to avoid watching the inauguration yesterday, but I did read up on it as much as I could this morning. Actually I did watch a couple clips of all these people in the crowd gushing tears. Vomit. Anyway, one of the articles I read on the Drudge Report talked about how some people there were calling Obama a prophet and comparing him to Joshua or Moses. Really?! Are we really that naive? Apparently so.

I read part of Obama's speech, which included the alliteration to Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech. Dr. King's dream was that one day people would be judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin. I 100% agree with that. But what happened in this election? Whether you want to accept it or not, we elected a man based on...the color of his skin. Had we judged him by the content of his character, the media would have actually looked into his life a little bit. We might have actually asked him some questions like, "Mr. Obama, why do you associate with known terrorists and communists?" We would have paid attention to his Chicago Big Machine politics. We would have asked about what he has actually done to "change" things. And we would have realized that this is absolutely not a man who upholds the character that our country deserves to sit in the White House. And yet we gave him a free ride and threw out the red carpet to the most powerful position in the world. And we don't know a d*** thing about him.

So Dr. King, unfortunately your dream is still a dream. We still judge others by the color of their skin and not the content of their character. Maybe some day.

Back

After being gone for a three-week vacation, I’m back and all caught up on the current news. I’m a little irritated when I watch any news TV station or walk into any store with magazines and there is a constant theme of: The most historical president inauguration. I guess it depends on your perspective of “historical.” I’ll tell you mine.

The reason this is such an historical event is because this is the first time that our country has elected a president without even knowing who he is. And when interesting events started surfacing, for example, all of Obama’s questionable ties to known terrorists, socialists, extremists, elitists, etc. we didn’t even care. And why didn’t we care? Well, let’s be frank. A major component is that he’s black and somehow by overlooking all of these characteristics that would immediately discredit a conservative politician, we convince ourselves that we’re not biased to race or religion.

Now we are starting to see the fruits of our labors. Has anyone noticed the cabinet that Obama is selecting? Anyone know who Carol M. Browner is? She is now Obama’s Global Climate Czar. What was she up to before being appointed to a pointless position in a pointless agency? She was a member of a socialist group that favors a one-world government. Now I will give Obama credit for being consistent in his cabinet appointees – they’re all for destroying everything our country was founded upon.

And who knows Henry Rivera? He is Obama’s transition chief for the Federal Communications Commission. What does this mean? Anybody heard of the Fairness Doctrine? First of all, the name is blatantly misleading. A better name would be the Censorship Doctrine. Basically it states that for every conservative-based radio talk show program, the radio station would be required to put on a liberal-based show at the station’s expense. What does this mean? Well, we’re at the point now that we can say without any doubt that the liberals have overtaken the media. Newspapers, magazines, television, Hollywood – it’s all blatantly anti-conservative. And anybody who disagrees is blind and arrogant. So the only source that conservatives have to get out their voice is talk radio – and it’s a very strong source. Millions of people listen to talk radio because they want to receive information from a source that’s not polluted with liberal agendas.
The Democrats are very aware of the power of talk radio and so they will soon be working on bringing back the “Fairness” Doctrine. Obama is as far left as they go and although he has not openly supported the doctrine, his overall transition chief, John Podesta, is a huge proponent. And I want to still give Obama credit for his consistency, and he has consistently voted left, so the obvious answer is he will also be in support of this doctrine. Now once this doctrine is passed, our right to free speech will be completely obliterated. The Democrats will have control of every house of Congress, all stems of the media, and the soon-to-be turned liberal Supreme Court. If this happens, we will see a new chapter in American history that our Founding Fathers sought to prevent – complete government control.

Now aware of the implications of the Fairness Doctrine, what can we do? Well for starters, we better write to our representatives and let them know that they better not support the doctrine. Oh, and I guess before that we have to believe that the doctrine is absolutely detrimental to our country. IF you don’t believe that yet, move to France. But if you do believe it, then get out there and put up a fight!
