Economic Meltdown: "Great Opportunity" to Fix Illegal Alien Crisis!

















By John W. Lillpop

In their rush to dole out a trillion dollars to fund liberal pet projects in the name of stimulating the battered economy, the Democrat-controlled Congress and President Obama failed to address a major domestic crisis that threatens America's homeland security, social order, and cultural heritage, and which costs taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars each year.

The issue is the unchecked invasion of our sovereign land by scores of millions of illegal aliens, mostly from the failed state of Mexico.

Ironically, many of the concerns voiced by liberals could be mitigated, at least partially, by aggressively working to solve the illegal aliens mess.

Concerned about education and overcrowded class rooms?

Removing 12-38 million invaders would reduce class sizes dramatically, and improve the quality of instruction by weeding out illegals unable to keep up because of language and cultural barriers.

Concerned about overcrowded prisons and jails and the need to spend hundreds of billions to erect even more?

Approximately 30 percent of all inmates are illegal aliens, people who should not even be here to begin with.

Concerned about run away health care costs and the tens of millions whom are uninsured?

A disproportionate percentage of illegal aliens are uninsured and do not otherwise pay for their heath care, although they somehow manage to send approximately $30 billion a year back to Mexico. Medical services not paid for by illegals are dumped on the backs of Americans who belong here.

Concerned about violent crime, drugs, gangs and the general deterioration of the rule of law?

In addition to the crime of being in America unlawfully, illegal aliens exacerbate crime in this nation.

Concerned about the loss of jobs and reduced standard of living for working Americans?

Illegal aliens undercut American citizens by working for lower wages and without benefits. In effect, they steal jobs from real Americans.

******************

President Obama has encouraged Americans to see that the horrendous economic meltdown also includes a "great opportunity" for the future.

Perhaps the president and his colleagues in the Democrat party should set the example by taking advantage of this unique opportunity to end, and reverse, illegal immigration, a crisis that plagues the nation's economic, social, cultural, and educational systems?

For instance, unemployed American citizens should be used to complete the border fence between America and Mexico, and be trained to work with law enforcement authorities to ferret out illegals for deportation.

That would put needy Americans to work on a rule of law issue vital to our sovereignty and homeland security, and would make jobs held by illegal aliens available to citizens.

With Democrats committed to spending trillions of dollars of taxpayer money to revive the economy, why not fix the illegal alien mess, once and for all, by building a viable border fence and by sending those who have no business being here back to their nations of origin?

Where in Bloody Hell Is Janet Napolitano?













By John W. Lillpop


Janet Napolitano may be a perfectly wonderful daughter, sister, niece, aunt, and significant other.

However, she has no business serving as Secretary of Homeland Security, unless one is more concerned with affirmative action quotas than the lives and well-being of 300 million Americans.

Placing Napolitano in that vital post is a clear indication that President Obama is in total denial about the fact that America is at war. It also exposes his flagrant disregard for US borders and immigration laws.

Echoing Obama’s position, Napolitano considers it her job to be a “Welcoming Greeter” for illegal aliens, rather than enforcer of the law. In other words, she is smitten with bass-akwards thinking, a genetic disorder common in practicing liberals.

To date, under Napolitano’s watch, America has suffered two acts of attempted terrorism, one of which was successful.

Her “the system worked” comment after the Christmas Day “underwear bomber” episode is still amusing people everywhere, especially Osama bin Laden and his Al-Quaeda killer thugs.

However, even some Democrats are finally waking up to the arrogance and ineptness of this woman and they are not amused.

As reported, in part, at CNN.com (1):


“Washington (CNN) - Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano is in hot water for not appearing Wednesday at a congressional hearing on the failed attempt to blow up a U.S.-bound airliner on Christmas Day.

“House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson said the committee had been told Napolitano would be out of the country and agreed to have her deputy, Jane Holl Lute, testify in her absence.

“But Thompson said he understood that Napolitano's schedule changed and she was in Washington. He said the committee should have been informed if she was unable to attend for another reason.”


So, the big question of the day is: Where in bloody hell is Janet Napolitano?

From the perspective of this unbiased reporter, it is clear that Napolitano has abandoned her post in pursuit of one or more of the following objectives:

( ) Advising illegal aliens that the United States now regards them as “Newly Arrived Fugitives,” rather than the correct designation as invading criminals.

( ) Personally escorting “Newly Arrived Fugitives” across the Mexican border and directly to DNC voter registration offices with an eye to growing the Democrat Party base in time for the 2010 elections.

( ) Updating her DHS memo concerning right-wing extremists to include all Massachusetts voters who voted for Scott Brown, including Brown himself, as potential terrorists that the government needs to scrutinize very carefully.


Janet Napolitano as Secretary of Homeland Security?

Come on Mr. President, its time to face reality: Napolitano must go!

Obama Needs “Stupid Ideas” Czar


By John W. Lillpop


America’s deliberate slide into to a Marxist, third-world abyss can be explained by the fact that our president is a 48 year old spoiled brat, reckless and fickle, unfit for command. Clearly, this president needs a “stupid ideas” czar to filter out his most dangerous ideas before they can be implemented.

Stupid ideas like closing GITMO and trying KSM in New York City. Like a trillion dollar stimulus bill that has failed to stop the historic rise in unemployment. Like flying off to Copenhagen to campaign for the City of Chicago, only to be humiliated by the IOC.

Like criticizing American policy and leaders while on foreign soil.

And on and on it goes. An aggressive “Stupid Ideas” czar would have nipped those Obama blunders immediately.

Unfortunately, the elected Congressional officials charged with providing “over sight” of the Executive Branch are too danged old to see their own flaws, much less those of our dithering president.

Consider the ages of these Congressional stalwarts:

Robert Byrd (93)
Diane Feinstein (79)
John McCain (73)
Nancy Pelosi (70)
Barbara Boxer (70)
Harry Reid (70)
John Kerry (67)

Does any one honestly believe that a geezer in his 70s gives a tinker’s dam about running up a federal debt that will be due and payable two generations hence?

The liberals listed above are interested in one thing and one thing only: Spend as much of your money on socialized medicine,illegal aliens, global warming scams and other foolishness as needed to remain in power!

Period!

Of course they insist that they are “public servants,” but with all due respect, just how much service is Robert Byrd providing? The man cannot walk, and is barely able to breathe.

Seems to me that a real public servant would do the honorable thing by getting out of the way and allowing a younger, more able Republican to take his fractured seat in the Senate.

Ala Scott Brown, Senator Byrd!

The same applies to Pelosi, Reid, Boxer, Feinstein, McCain, and Reid. Leave office now and let your career end with an act of grace and dedication to the best interests of the American people.

Yes, I know that John McCain is a Republican. But folks the man is more liberal than some communists, and he is just too old to be trusted with the awesome power granted to a US Senator.

We need a mandatory retirement age for the weasels in Congress. How about 65?

We the people also need a “stupid ideas” Czar to keep Obama from ruining his family name and America with stupid policies!

Caning of SCOTUS Exposes Obama's Lack of Prime Time Sophistication















By John W. Lillpop

President Obama slithered to a new low on Wednesday by lashing out at the US Supreme Court during his State of the Union address.

The assembled justices, representing an equal branch of government, were not afforded equal time to rebut the president, although Judge Alito begged to differ with the fallen messiah and made that fact abundantly clear by mouthing his dissent.

Tolerating dissent does not appear to be one of this president’s strengths; nevertheless, this is still America and Alito showed remarkable restraint by not shouting out “YOU LIE!” at our befuddled leader.

In addition to being tacky and down right rude, Obama’s outburst shows an embarrassing lack of maturity and good sense.

After all, Obama has an agenda for change that would displace many institutionalized American values. Implementing such change is certain to provoke legal challenges, including cases that will inevitably wind up before the very justices that Obama was slamming so ferociously.

Why would any president with even a lick of common sense choose to publicly humiliate the people who could very well make or break his presidency?

What was the motivation? Was Obama simply providing a sassy punch line for leftist nut balls in Congress to cheer?

If so, that would be a pity. Democrats hold the White House and majorities in both houses and yet the only thing to cheer is a presidential caning of the Supreme Court?


Clearly, President Obama is not ready for prime time. He needs to reboot his entire political career and pronto.

Perhaps a stint of taking coffee to the Clintons is more in line with your capabilities at this time and would enhance your political acumen, Mr. President?

Finally, it appears that the issue of Obama’s birth certificate can be safely put on hold, at least temporarily.

Instead, let’s demand to see his High School diploma!

Time to Eliminate Czars and Handmaidens, Mr. President!










By John W. Lillpop

Scores of millions of Americans are fitfully waiting the unveiling of the new and improved President Obama, set to roll out at 9 tonight.

A word of caution, Mr. President: People are looking for real CHANGE this time, mostly to the wrong-headed policies and decisions that you have implemented over the past 12 months.

We hear that you will propose a spending “freeze” in order to address the huge deficit that you, Speaker Pelosi and Senate Leader have rung up.

With all due respect, sir, isn’t a freeze just too little, too late?

From a taxpayers’ perspective, it certainly seems that the Obama deficit has grown so unwieldy that only a legitimate slash and burn effort stands a chance at making a difference. Running in place should not be an option.

Only real CHANGE will do, sir.

When it comes to identifying unneeded bloat in government, you could make a decent start simply by looking around the White House itself.

For instance, why in Hades does a man with an IQ of 170 need 40 “czars” to keep track of doings in government? Better to slash the unneeded programs AND the czars. Do it now for the people!

And can you please explain to the American people, many of whom have lost their homes or are in the process of suffering that indignity, why the FLOTUS needs 30 or so hand maidens to tend to her personal needs?

Surely, there must be a less costly way to provide a family of four with luxury and comfort in the White House?

When it comes to wasteful spending, why not propose a freeze on all non-essential congressional travel? Like Speaker Pelosi’s million dollar extravaganza in which she loaded a few Air Force jets with leftist cheerleaders to watch you fail at the global warming farce in Copenhagen?

Why not force Pelosi to justify why she had to go to Copenhagen and why it was necessary for her to take most of San Francisco with her on a winter’s holiday-- at taxpayer expense?

Speaking of wasteful boondoggles, perhaps you and Michelle should pool your money with that of Oprah in order to pay the US Treasury back for the money spent to transport the three of you to Copenhagen in your failed attempt to have the 2016 Olympics staged in Chicago?

Even greater savings could be realized by using common sense in the handling of KSM and other brutal terrorists. Is it really necessary to spend $200 million a year just to try these renegades in New York City when a military tribunal is much more than they deserve?

Why not abandon your leftist agenda, sir, and “spread the wealth” back to the American people from whence it came?

Bad Karma, Rotten Timing Doom “Chemical Ali”

















Satire by John W. Lillpop

From Baghdad, comes news that Ali Hassan al-Majid, cousin to the late Saddam Hussein, was executed by hanging, more than three years after Hussein himself was hanged.

As reported, in part, by the New York Times (1):

“BAGHDAD — a symbol of the former government of Saddam Hussein, who ordered a poison gas attack on a Kurdish village in northern Iraq, was executed on Monday.

“An Iraqi court had sentenced Mr. Majid, 68, to death by hanging last week. Mr. Majid, known as Chemical Ali for his role in the attack on the village of Halabja, in which more than 5,000 Kurds died.

“Iraq’s state television broadcast pictures of what it said was the execution, showing a man in a black mask and red jumpsuit on a wood scaffold, with a rope around his neck.”


Were it not for bad karma and rotten timing, Chemical Ali could have gotten a much better deal from the wrecking crew affectionately known as the Obama administration.

If, for example, Chemical had tried to blow up a jumbo jet over Detroit on Christmas Day, he would have immediately been read his Miranda rights and treated like the returning prodigal son from the New Testament.

Eric Holder’s Justice Department would have rushed to hire a team of powerful attorneys to defend Chemical, the tab for which would, of course, be added directly to the federal deficit.

After three or four days, President Obama would emerge from his surfboard at Waikiki beach long enough to apologize (again) for the Bush administration, the ineptness of which led to Obama inheriting the likes of Chemical Ali.

Obama would have gone on to insist that Chemical not be subjected to Enhanced Interrogation Techniques (EITs) like water boarding. Thus, the US government would have been prevented from securing additional information that would be vital to predicting and thwarting future attacks.

The president would defend the pansy-like treatment of Chemical as a “necessary step in restoring America’s image through out the globe and in assuring Muslims that we understand that Islam is a great religion of peace that must not be offended by an outbreak of irrational Christianity just because it happens to be Christmas Day.”

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano would have declared that the system worked perfectly even though Chemical came within 20 seconds of incinerating over 200airline passengers and fouling up the skies over Detroit, making it almost impossible for Santa to fulfill his December 25 obligations.

As quickly as possible, the Obama administration would move to dismiss all charges against Chemical who would then be returned to Baghdad, from where he could continue to plunder helpless Kurds into submission.

All of which would have been done to convince Osama bin Laden that America is a fair and just nation, in addition to being non-Christian.

Bottom line: It was Chemical Ali’s great misfortune to have been an enemy of America in the days when we had a real president whose first priority was to assure the defense and safety of 300 million Americans.

Does “Prostidude” Have a Future in Nevada Politics?












Satire by John W. Lillpop


From the great state of Nevada, the birthplace and residence of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, comes a strange story about a young man who has officially become America’s first legal Gigolo.

As reported, in part, at apnews.myway.com, (1):


http://apnews.myway.com/article/20100122/D9DCPLTG1.html

“A brothel in a Nevada desert town has hired the state's first male prostitute, a muscular college dropout who abandoned a brief stint as a porn actor in Los Angeles to become the only legal gigolo in the United States.

“The Shady Lady Ranch successfully won state and county approval to clear the way for the "prostidude," as Nevada's newest sex worker is already being called. After a slow first week on the job, his first appointments are scheduled for this weekend.
The male prostitute - known as "Markus" - has quickly become the center of attention in Nevada's brothel industry.

"Markus, 25, described himself as a well-read college dropout and former U.S. Marine from Alabama. He said he drove to Los Angeles to become a porn actor and left after filming two scenes, the first about a month ago. He said he ended up in a homeless shelter near Santa Monica, Calif., after being unable to find another job.”

Markus needs to know that if the gig in Beatty, Nevada does not pan out, there is another state-wide opening that might be a perfect match for his people skills.

That would be the seat in the U.S. Senate currently occupied by Democrat Harry Reid. Reid is up for election this November and is particularly vulnerable given his low approval rating and key role in Obama’s attempt to bull doze America into oblivion.

Asked if he has any interest in politics, Markus said, “I am the type of guy who needs to go home after a day at the office with a sense of pride about what I have accomplished. Being a US Senator requires immoral and corrupt behavior not consistent with my spiritual self and objectives. Besides, being a male prostitute is a nobler calling that pays more!”

Well said, Markus!

By the way, does the Shady Lady Ranch have any openings for a 70s-something Marxist who lives in Nevada and may need to find work in early November?

How Obama Can Deliver His State of Union in Under Two Minutes











Satire by John W. Lillpop


Pity poor Barack Obama. Delivering the State of the Union after his wrecking-ball performance over the past twelve month is almost too much to ask, even for a clean and articulate man of color without a Negro dialect.

Democrats are urging the president to focus on the economy and the lingering carnage attributable to George W. Bush. That would make the speech 40-60 minutes long, far too much time for a failed president.

Above all else, Obama needs to make his speech short, concise and to the point.

America is in deep trouble and the last thing we need is a long lecture about how George W. Bush is to blame for all bad news, including the earthquake in Haiti according to some deranged leftist actor out in Hollywood.

America does not give a damn about savaging W. anymore. We want our leaders to focus on fixing the problems rather than fixing blame!

Another bit of free counsel: Completely avoid the word CHANGE, as that word is now synonymous with communism in the hearts and minds of Americans who have been paying attention.

One more helpful tip: Avoid the following subjects entirely:


Unemployment/Jobs Creation

Homeland Security/Defense

War in Afghanistan

Energy Independence

Massachusetts

Overall Economy/Fiscal Prudence

Deficit Management

Iran, North Korea

Russia, China

Status of the Dollar

Middle East Peace

USA Image Abroad

Transparency in Government

Race Relations, and

Health Care Reform


Focus instead on your Nobel Peace Prize and other outstanding achievements, Mr President.

By speaking only about your achievements, sir, you should be able to deliver your State of the Union in less than two minutes, provided your teleprompter does not misbehave.

Good luck, and Allah bless America!

Obama’s First Annual Report Card, Corrected to Include Truth











Satire by John W. Lillpop

Being the modest fellow that he is, President Obama, when asked to grade his first year in office, gave himself a B+, which would have transformed into an A if health care reform had passed.

Now that health care has crashed and burned, Obama’s report card has been corrected to incorporate truth and leave out hope and audacity.

So it is, that based on an analysis of the president’s performance by an unbiased and open-minded panel of right-wing extremists, President Obama is graded on ten critical elements of his presidency as follows:


Measure/Obama Score


Unemployment/Jobs Creation:0

Homeland Security/Defense: 0

Overall Economy/Fiscal Prudence:0

Deficit Management: 0

Iran Nuclear Crisis:0

Middle East Peace: 0

USA Image Abroad: 0

Transparency in Government:0

Impact on Racial Relations:0

Integrity/Leadership:0


Based on a weighted average of these data points, our esteemed panel offers the following counsel to the president:

There is a 95 percent probability that you will join the ranks of the unemployed by not later than November 2010, possibly earlier if impeachment becomes viable.

How does that square with your B+, sir?

Massachusetts Provides “Teaching Moment” for Obama, Liberals

By John W. Lillpop

Judging from the fallout over Scott Brown’s unprecedented victory, President Obama and fellow lunatics in Congress seem disinclined to accept the election results as a legitimate measure of voter disgust with liberalism and Obama.

Obama even hinted that the election was carryover rage that voters still harbored against his predecessor. That, of course, would be George W. Bush, the most vindicated president in our history.

Can you imagine? Why would Massachusetts voters choose a conservative Republican to replace the icon of liberal malfeasance, the late Ted Kennedy, because of lingering displeasure over Bush, another conservative?

Would that not be cutting one’s nose to spite one’s face, as it were?

The simple truth is that the Obama mystique has been exposed a monstrous fraud perpetrated on an unsuspecting electorate.

Who would have voted for Obama knowing that his policies would cause unemployment to soar?

Who would have checked the box next to Obama’s name knowing that two terrorist attack attempts, one of which was successful, would strike America within the first year of his presidency?

Who would have voted for CHANGE knowing that it would cost American taxpayers trillions of dollars for nothing but liberal puff?

Still, there is a bright side to all of this, Mr. President. Why not man up and accept your decline as a “teaching moment” from which great wisdom can be gleaned and America can recover?

Why not accept your first year in office as proof positive that socialism simply does not work in America?

Why No Presidental Wrath Aimed at Trial Lawyers?

By John W. Lillpop

Everyone knows that President Obama has made health care reform his signature issue. He walks, talks, eats, and sleeps health care reform, all the while preaching that the entire American economy faces ruin unless soaring medical costs are contained.

He has even stated that the issue is of such personal significance that he would be willing to leave the presidency after one-term, if needed to enact meaningful reform.

Given Barack Obama’s alleged passion for containing health care costs, just why is it that the president has steadfastly refused to take on greedy trial attorneys, those ambulance-chasing barristers who are largely responsible for out-of-control jumps in health care costs?

Even socialist wild man Howard Dean admitted that health care change without tort reform would be a meaningless charade. Although Dean is not often correct on important issues, he was dead on this time, much to the wrath of Obama and the Marxist dim wits in Congress.

Everyone knows that the president is also desperate to shake off the doldrums of a miserable streak of bad luck in recent elections, not to mention a growing revolution within his own party.

In order to reclaim his standing as darling of the mainstream media and messianic hero to the unwashed masses, Obama has decided to champion a populist mission that will resonate with angry voters.

That is why Obama is aggressively showing his teeth to the banking industry by advocating new taxes and regulations that will demonstrate that is willing to get in the faces of powerful Wall Street tycoons in order to advocate for the little guy. Obama the fearless will zap the banking industry in your name!

If he succeeds, watch for those greedy bankers to pass on the additional costs to you, the consumer, in the form of new and increased fees.

But back to greedy lawyers.

If President Obama really loses sleep over the fact that 46 million people are uninsured and that the American economy itself is headed to ruin because of run away medical costs, why does he refuse to take on greedy lawyers?

If you really care, Mr. President, why not take on tort reform here and now?

And while you are at it, why not declare that you will sign no health care reform bill that does not apply to all federal employees, just as it would to average Americans?

That means all senators, representatives, White House employees and staff, Supreme Court Associates, and the president, the vice-president and their families.

That is, if you really care!

Perhaps You Should Listen More, Lecture Less, Mr. President?















By John W. Lillpop


In an exclusive interview with ABC News, President Obama expressed regret that, “we lost some of that sense of speaking directly to the American people.”

As reported at abcnews.go.com (1), in part:

“President Obama said today that he believes he lost a direct connection to the American people in his first year in office because he focused too heavily on policymaking.

‘If there's one thing that I regret this year is that we were so busy just getting stuff done and dealing with the immediate crises that were in front of us that I think we lost some of that sense of speaking directly to the American people ...’ Obama told ABC News' George Stephanopoulos in an exclusive interview at the White House.”

However, as reported at cbs.news.com (2), in part, the president was hardly a shrinking violet when it came to communicating directly to the American people.

According to that report, Obama’s first year in office included the following activities:


Speeches, Comments & Remarks: 411
News Conferences: 42
Interviews: 158
Town Hall Meetings: 23



Clearly, Obama’s problem is not a shortfall on the sending end of the communications loop. Rather, it is obvious that Obama and his congressional cohorts need to listen to what the American people are saying.

Listening, rather than denigrating those who hold opposing views by calling such people Nazis, Astroturfers, Tea Baggers, and right-wing extremists, should be a priority in the liberal play book for 2010.

Obama’s personal goal should be to listen, not lecture!

A Practical Way to Reduce the Number of Uninsured












By John W. Lillpop

As President Obama, Majority Leader Reid, and House Speaker Pelosi survey the smoldering ruins of what they once considered to be a blank check issued by the American people, one is struck by the resiliency of some truly foolish ideas on the liberal agenda.

Take, for instance, amnesty, the outrageous notion that America should legalize 12-30 million uneducated, non-English speaking invaders at a time when unemployment is at 17 percent and upwards of 15 million Americans are without gainful employment.

Even in robust economic times, allowing millions of illegal aliens to violate our borders and ignore our immigration laws is just plain stupid, because it makes a mockery of rule of law and poses a serious threat to homeland security.

It also costs American taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars each year in services and goods stolen by those who should not even be here, much less on the public dole.

Illegal immigration disrupts our economy, threatens established values and culture, and has a negative impact on social order.

Incidentally, illegal aliens are also a huge factor in soaring US health care costs and have caused many an American hospital to go bankrupt.

American citizens are losing access to medical services and or are paying more because millions of illegal aliens do not pay for services, although many still find a way to send money back to third-world Mexico each year.

If only there were a single solution that would address both illegal aliens AND the huge population of uninsured in America.


But, there is such a solution, fellow patriots.

A simple, practical, non-PC solution exists if only moon bat politicians would listen to common sense.

Namely, rather than granting amnesty to criminal invaders, enforce the damn law by deporting each and every last one of the despicable outlaws.

By simply enforcing laws currently on the books, 10-20 million uninsured would be removed from the population and hundreds of billions of dollars now wasted on criminals would be saved.

Looking to reduce the ranks of the uninsured, Mr. President, Madam Speaker, and Mr. Majority Leader?

Then enforce the damn law!

Still Think You Earned a B+, Mr. President?

By John W. Lillpop

Getting out of bed on the first anniversary of his inauguration as America’s 44th president must have been particularly galling for President Obama this morning.

There was a political blood bath overnight in Massachusetts which, like it or night, was a referendum on Obama and his far-left policies. This was no vast right-wing conspiracy or the work of Nazis, Astroturf clowns, or right wing extremists.

This was the ultra-blue state of Massachusetts sending Obama an unmistakable message, loud and clear: The American people do not want nor need your brand of far-left radicalism.

Let us be clear: This is still America, a capitalist, free-market representative democracy. We intend to keep it that way!

You were hired, Mr. President, to steer the good ship America clear of hazards and some very hard times. No one expected you to replace the vessel of American life and culture with your own Marxist agenda.

Change with a small C, rather than CHANGE! was what most Americans envisioned. A course adjustment, rather than a radical turn left, was the only mandate approved by the people in November, 2008.

The big question on the morning after: Will this president and his liberal conspirators pay heed to the people’s message or will they defiantly buck prevailing currents in a futile attempt to rekindle the fires of Obamamania, long since extinguished in town hall meets and Tea Parties from coast-to-coast?

Of course, health care will be impacted, as will cap and trade and other foolish excesses on the Obama agenda.

But what about amnesty for 12-20 million invading criminals that Obama would like to add to the rolls of Democrat Party voters?

With America’s economy still in the doldrums and 15 million Americans out of work, just how eager will liberals be to advance an amnesty that would reward illegal aliens for breaking and entering into America?

Will the “Browning of Massachusetts” on Tuesday force liberals to see common sense on this issue?

If not, let me be the first to issue the following challenge: When it comes to granting amnesty to illegal aliens at the expense of American jobs, BRING IT ON, Mr. President!

Isn’t It Rich? 364 Days On, America Comes Roaring Back!















By John W. Lillpop

Isn’t it rich?

Just 364 short days ago, the greatest nation in human history was turned over to an inexperienced Marxist whose political agenda was to dissect and destroy institutions long held near and dear to the American people.

Barack Obama was sufficiently naïve and narcissistic to actually believe that he could, and should, restructure American politics and culture to conform to his own peculiar far left radicalism.

His “vision” was to tear down America and her leaders at every opportunity, especially on foreign soil. He wanted the entire world to know that America was no better than any other nation, and that being a good “citizen of the world” was far more important than American preeminence.

He made a special point of rejecting the notion that America is a Christian nation, and did so on Muslim soil where anti-American terrorism is a chief export.

He decided that he knew best when it came to national security, and arrogantly set about to dismantle the safeguards installed by his Republican predecessor and which, incidentally, had kept America safe for nearly eight years.

He decided that funding liberal pet projects was more important than carrying out his fiduciary responsibility to the American people, all the while piling trillions upon trillions of dollars of debt onto the backs of unborn generations of American taxpayers.

He foolishly decided that he and the Democrat party had the moral right to ram a very flawed health care plan down the throats of the American people, even though 56 percent of the populace opposes the plan.

Now, just 364 days after Barack Obama was declared an omnipotent, all knowing, and infallible messiah by the leftist media, the great people of Massachusetts have declared other wise.

Isn’t it rich?

Ed Schultz Reveals Liberal Strategy for Winning Elections












Satire By John W. Lillpop

Until now, everyone who has ever listened to lefty talker Ed Schultz has reached the same conclusion: The man is dumber than rat snot!

Only recently has the full extent of Schultz’s liberal insanity been made public.

As reported at the Huffington Post, in part (1), Schultz owes rat snot everywhere a public apology:

“On Friday, MSNBC host Ed Schultz proposed a radical path to a Democratic win in the unexpectedly close Massachusetts Senate race for the late Ted Kennedy's seat: cheating.

"If I lived in Massachusetts, I'd try to vote ten times," Schultz said on his radio show, The Ed Schultz Show.

"Yeah that's right," he went on. "I'd cheat to keep these bastards out. I would. Because that's exactly what they are."

The good news is that even if this dim wit were able to vote ten times, Martha Oaklely would still go down in flames, if current polls are to believed.

Even better is the news that Schultz has declined calls from Democrat Party leaders to run for the US Senate seat being vacated by North Dakota Democratic Sen. Byron Dorgan who is not running for re-election.

Of course Democrat power players are bitterly disappointed by Schultz’s decision:

For example, Majority Leader Harry Reid said, “Ed’s decision is a real blow to the progressive agenda because of his unique understanding of Democrat Party winning strategies, and because he has no Negro dialect.”

Editor’s Note: Ed Schultz has no Negro dialect because he is lily-white!

Meanwhile, House Shrieker Nancy Pelosi took time away from registering San Francisco illegal aliens as Democrats for the November elections to issue this profundity: “Ed Schultz is urgently needed in Washington to offset the culture of corruption that will surely embrace the Republican nominee, who that might be.”

Well said, Madam Shrieker, and with your customary objectivity and lack of partisan bias.

Finally, President Obama weighed in on the Ed Schultz kerfuffel with this: “Ed Schultz? Who the hell is Ed Schultz? I listen to Rush Limbaugh!”

There you go: The best and the brightest of the Democrat Party worshipping at the public altar of corruption and dishonesty while claiming to be transparent, honest, and open!

STOP the Mockery of American Democracy by Marxist Elitists!
















By John W. Lillpop

The insufferable arrogance and ignorance of Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and related Marxists on health care is becoming increasingly maddening by the day.

If you are like me, you are:

FED UP when bribes, extortion, whore mongering, and other shady backroom deals are used to formulate vital public policies;

FED UP with elitist politicians who insist that ObamaCare is good enough for most Americans, yet not good enough for them or their families;

FED UP with politicians who claim that health care reform is urgently needed to contain soaring health care costs, but who refuse to even consider Tort Reform;

FED UP when campaign promises for transparency and openness are blatantly ignored by Democrats, including the president, who convene privately, behind closed doors, to plot and scheme the future for 16% of the American economy;

FED UP with an administration that refuses to enforce the law by deporting illegal aliens, opting instead to include invading criminals in health care reform, which will only encourage tens of millions more to come here illegally;

FED UP with unfair and unwarranted concessions to labor unions, trial lawyers, and other liberal special interests amounting to scores of billions of dollars;

FED UP that health care is in jeopardy of being turned over to government bureaucracies that are known only for incompetence and failure;

FED UP knowing that ObamaCare would raise taxes and penalize married couples in direct violation of Obama campaign promises;

FED UP with the fact that Democrats are considering the use of “reconciliation” procedures in the US Senate to circumvent a legal filibuster by Republicans on the health care monster;

FED UP
with the fact that Democrats might attempt to manipulate the seating of Scott Brown, should he win in Massachusetts, in order to defy the will of the people;

FED UP that ObamaCare would cost California scores of billions of dollars at a time when that state is already on the brink of bankruptcy;

FED UP that liberals are trying to ram ObamaCare down the throats of the people, when 56 percent oppose this travesty, and

FED UP with being called a racist, Nazi, Astro-turf activist, tea bagging clown, unpatriotic, and a right wing extremist simply for opposing the Marxist HMO scheme known as ObamaCare.


How much longer will the American people stick their heads in the sand and pretend that we live in a sophisticated Democracy where the rule of law and the will of the people really matter?

Why Not CHANGE in Massachusetts, Mr. President?
















By John W. Lillpop

Just how is it that Barack Obama, whose entire campaign for the presidency was based on CHANGE, has suddenly gone wobbly in the knees about that very concept, at least when it comes to the open seat for the US Senate in Massachusetts?

After all, the late Senator Ted Kennedy served in the Senate for 46 years. He was first sworn in to the Senate in 1963, when baby Barack was still dithering about in diapers, somewhere in Kenya or Hawaii.

46 long years, Mr. President!

All the while, Kennedy carried the banner of liberal extremism and was the “hit man” for leftist causes that are now crippling our great nation, its economy, its moral standards, its defense, and its social order.

Regrettably, the woman Democrats would like to install in Kennedy’s seat is another far-left lefty who, until recently, has presumed Kennedy’s seat to be the sole and exclusive property of the Democrat Party and the Kennedy family.

That is, until the recent surge by conservative Republican Scott Brown who skillfully reminded Coakley and Democrats that, in fact, Kennedy’s seat belongs to the people.

You know government by and for We the People, a concept that has apparently fallen into harsh disfavor with Democrats!

Scott Brown’s reminder has helped build momentum for his candidacy, which may actually succeed in bringing badly needed CHANGE to Massachusetts and the Marxist-dominated US Senate.

Looking for real CHANGE that will actually benefit America?

If so, the choice is very clear: End 46 years of the same old politics as usual nonsense and elect Scott Brown!

After all, CHANGE is what it is all about, right Mr. President?

Senator Scott Brown: Rewriting the Kennedy Legacy?


















By John W. Lillpop


Just a few months ago, the United States Senate seated a clown and failed broadcaster named Al Franken to the most deliberative body in the world. They did so knowingly and with great fan fare, made all the more repulsive by grotesque public chortling.

That calamitous seating gave the Marxists in the White House and Congress that all-important 60th vote needed to wreak havoc on the US Constitution, the American economy, the unborn and the elderly, the federal deficit, the domestic automobile industry, the US military, the sacred institution of marriage, US foreign policy, homeland security, and all other things good and noble.

At the time of the Franken interloping, the White House was elated since the end of America, as we know it, seemed inevitable, perhaps even ordained by deity.

Indeed, it seemed as though we conservative folk had been abandoned by God and sentenced to suffer an earthly hell where decency and common sense were overwhelmed by liberal lunacy.

Doom and gloom prevailed as conservatives contemplated a nation where the insane thinking of Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Barney Frank, and Barack Obama would be codified into reams and reams of new, barbaric law.

Ugh! Was the operative term.

Looking back just a few short months, who would have thunk that the election to replace Ted Kennedy would provide an opportunity for the Republican Party to break the Obama Hex?

Who in his or her right mind would have bet even a single battered dollar on Republican chances to regain their filibuster muscle via an unknown conservative Republican named Scott Brown in the Massachusetts election on January 19?

Who would have even had the courage to pray for such an astounding reversal of fate? Even the most faithful would have found such a prayer a bit too much to ask of The Lord.

Yet here we are, just days away from that special election and Scott Brown is not only “in the race,” he is actually leading in some polls!

Of course it is way too early to celebrate anything.

Martha Kookley or whatever her damn name is can still win. This is after all, Massachusetts, moon bat capitol of the universe.

But if the improbable should come to pass next Tuesday, America’s experiment with radical Marxism will have ended!

What a fitting cap to the Kennedy legacy: Scott Brown and the end of the Obama Era!

And should that blessed event come to pass, we should all bow our heads in unison and repent for doubting The Lord for even one moment!

How Would MLK Regard “Light-skinned and no Negro Dialect”?



















By John W. Lillpop


With America set to celebrate the birth and life of Martin Luther King Day on January 18, 2010, the time is right to examine this nation’s progress in fulfilling Dr. King’s “Dream” of a color blind society.

While it is true that America has elected an African-American to the presidency for the first time in our history, it is also just as true that Barack Obama was elected largely because of his race.

Democrats, and Obama himself, used his race with great precision as a means for exploiting pangs of guilt nestled in the hearts of liberals into votes.

Their non-color blind message: Vote for Barack Obama because he is black. Doing so will help heal the wounds of slavery and other abuses heaped on black people by evil white men.

Washington reporter Helen Thomas summed up this mentality when she expressed gratitude that America finally had a black president.

That is clearly not what Dr. King had it mind.

His Dream was for a color blind society, where people would be judged by character and ability rather than skin pigmentation.

Surely, Dr. King would be sorely disappointed to learn that, more than 40 years after his death, the Majority Leader of the United States Senate, a Democrat, would hail a black candidate because he was “light-skinned and with no Negro dialect.”


Perhaps Harry Reid should atone for his bigoted stupidity by resigning from the US Senate, effective January 18, which just happens to be Martin Luther King Day.

Senator Scott Brown Would Be Tribute to Memory of Mary Jo Kopechne












By John W. Lillpop

Should the good people of Massachusetts act wisely and elect Republican Scott Brown to replace the late Ted Kennedy in the United States Senate, the immediate benefit would be to prevent the communization of our health care system and the inevitable devastation that ensues when government bureaucrats meddle in matters best left to people who know what the hell they are doing.

By voting NAY! to ObamaCare, Senator Brown would drive a dagger into the heart of yet another multi-trillion dollar mistake by the Obama administration and its Marxist allies in Congress.

Beyond the economic benefits, replacing Kennedy with a Republican would provide a fitting and sober tribute to the memory of Mary Jo Kopechne.

For those too young to remember, Mary Jo Kopechne was a 29-year-old whose precious young life was snuffed out on July 18, 1969 as a result of her decision to ride in an automobile driven by Ted Kennedy who, in a drunken stupor,drove the car off a bridge.

Notwithstanding his intoxicated state, the senator was able to abandon the sinking vehicle in order to save his own life. Young Mary Jo Kopechne was allowed to drown in what is known as the Chappaquiddick incident.

Ted Kennedy’s inherent indecency and lack of concern for others was amply demonstrated by the fact that he did not even bother to report the incident until the next morning.

Besides just surviving Chappaquiddick, Ted Kennedy managed to avoid serious legal ramifications and continued to be held in high esteem by Democrats as a dedicated warrior in the war to bring equality to women.

Liberals chose to ignore the innocent life of Mary Jo Kopechne in their fervor to make Ted Kennedy a champion of the "little" person.

Electing Scott Brown will obviously not bring Mary Jo Kopechne back to life. But it might help remind Americans that elitist liberals, at their core, do not give a whit about “little” people.

Elect Scott Brown, Massachusetts: Do it in memory of Mary Jo!

Sheer Joy: When PC Bites a Clueless Marxist in the Tush














By John W. Lillpop

Inasmuch as Hollywood and television moguls are no longer producing uplifting hilarity, it has fallen to liberal politicians and their screw-ball antics to keep Americans suitably amused and, it should be noted, equally outraged.

For instance, while Lucille Ball kept Americans in giggles for decades, even Lucy’s looniest moments were not as crazy as Shrieker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s as she tried to justify taking communion despite her ardent support for abortion rights.

According to Pelosi, the Catholic “Fathers” had not really decided that abortion is sinful. It was, at least in her abused mind, an open issue!

Side-splitting funny, that was!

Older Americans will remember the good old days when comedian Red Skelton, America’s Clown Prince, would entertain kids from one to 92 with his “Freddy the Freeloader” skits and stand-up that would make one laugh so hard that it physically hurt!

However, “Freddie” has nothing on Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid who has appointed himself as the moral voice of the US Senate, at least when it comes to accusing Republicans of being racial bigots.

In an insane attempt to paint those who oppose ObamaCare as bigots and racists, Reid recently compared them to the scalawags who opposed emancipation of Negro slaves when Republican President Abe Lincoln was in office.

Reid made headlines with his attacks on Republicans, apparently forgetting some “insensitive” comments he himself uttered about Barack Obama during the 2008 campaign when the befuddled senator proudly noted that Obama was “light-skinned and had no Negro dialect.”

Watching this dreadful Marxist squirm and wiggle while choking on his own PC drivel is more amusing than anything seen recently on Comedy Central or the Jon Stewart Daily Show.

Even more hysterical are the pathetic attempts by Reid’s political colleagues to make light of the senator’s rancid words.

Some say it was a simple mistake that has been redeemed by an apology, making it time to get on with the business of bankrupting America.

Others defend Reid by saying he was simply trying to point out Obama’s “positive” qualities!

So, being darker and having a “negro dialect” are negative aspects, huh? Sounds like racism to me!

Clearly, America still has plenty to work on when it comes to issues of race. That no one can deny.

However, as Reid’s clownish behavior reveals, hypocrisy exists at the highest levels of the Democrat party.

By the way, where is the outrage from the likes of the NAACP, Congressional Black Caucus, and Jesse Jackson?

Why is Al Sharpton not leading a million person march on Washington, D.C. to demand that Harry Reid be bounced from office immediately?

Might it have anything to do with the fact that Nevada’s Governor Jim Gibbons is a Republican who would surely appoint another Republican to replace the irreplaceable Harry Reid, thereby torpedoing the ObamaCare scheme?

Whatever, the fact remains that liberal insanity is a five star comedy—provided it can be prevented from destroying America while amusing us!

Clean, Articulate, Light-Skinned, and No Negro Dialect!















By John W. Lillpop


What sort of red-necked yahoo would use those words to compliment an African-American running for elective office?

Perhaps an uneducated, uninformed, toothless bloke from, say, Alabama, Louisiana or other haven for bigots in the Deep South?

Wrong!

Actually, the “clean and articulate” compliment came from the unbridled mouth of Joe Biden, the same clown we now call Vice President.

The “light-skinned and no negro dialect” dilly came from Harry Reid, Majority Leader of the US Senate, who recently had the audacity to warn that Republicans opposed to ObamaCare were of the same ilk as those scoundrels who opposed ending slavery back in the days when Republican President Abe Lincoln was raising hell.

It also happens to be the same Harry Reid who declared that those who favored English as America’s official language were racist.

Reid’s latest display of brain-dead hypocrisy is reported, in part, at Yahoo.com:

“WASHINGTON – The top Democrat in the U.S. Senate apologized on Saturday for comments he made about Barack Obama's race during the 2008 presidential bid and are quoted in a yet-to-be-released book about the campaign.

"Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada described in private then-Sen. Barack Obama as "light skinned" and "with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one." Obama is the nation's first African-American president.

"I deeply regret using such a poor choice of words. I sincerely apologize for offending any and all Americans, especially African-Americans for my improper comments," Reid said in a statement released after the excerpts were first reported on the Web site of The Atlantic.”


Reid, now an impassioned champion of amnesty for 20 million illegal aliens in America, once called illegal aliens “free loaders and scam artists” which he proposed to deal with in his Immigration Stabilization Act in the United States Senate in 1993.

That proposed legislation was introduced to the floor of the US Senate with the following press release, in part, issued by Reid’s office on August 5, 1993.

“In response to increased terrorism and abuse of social programs by aliens, (I) today introduced the first and only comprehensive immigration reform bill in Congress. Currently, an alien living illegally in the United States often pays no taxes but receives unemployment, welfare, free medical care, and other federal benefits. Recent terrorist acts, including the World Trade Center bombing, have underscored the need to keep violent criminals out of the country.”

Harry Reid: Not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but the senator from Nevada does have has a way with words!

Perhaps its time for the senator to retire so as to spend more time with his grandchildren and dementia team?

Let Go of GITMO Foolishness, Mr. President!














By John W. Lillpop


With all due respect to our dithering Commander-in-Chief, just who in the bloody hell is he trying to impress with his “close GITMO” and other programs designed to assuage terrorists?

Is President Obama really so naive as to believe that transferring GITMO detainees to Illinois is going to cause Al-Quaeda thugs to unclench their fists and lay down their decapitation axes?

Illinois, land of Lincoln, and minus 50 degrees in winter?

Is President Obama really so blinded by his addiction to liberal thought that he believes that trying KSM and other Muslim misfits in New York City, at a cost of hundreds of millions of dollars in the middle of an economic depression, will matter one iota to evil savages like Osama bin Laden who detest western concepts such as Democracy, freedom, and equality?

Does he really believe that apologizing on behalf of America and stating that we are not a Christian nation on foreign soil will cause Muslim fanatics to see that, despite being despicable infidels, Americans are kind and gentle folk who should be tolerated by Islam in the interest of diversity?

Surely this president must know that Islamofascists openly and flagrantly promote their agenda of an Islam-only world order where infidels are butchered like rats in order to please Allah?

Is this president unable to face truth and admit that the only way to co-exist with Islamofascists is to abandon our Democracy and Constitutional self-governance in favor of Sharia law?

Has sitting through 20 years of hated-filled, anti-American sermons by Pastor Jeremiah Wright unalterably biased President Obama’s mind against all things American?

Does President Obama realize that the American people are fed up with his insane rush to tear down American values in order to placate dim wits who would cut our throats ear-to-ear, given the chance?

Does he understand how angry we are and how we want to shout from the top of our lungs: Let Go of the GITMO Foolishness, Mr. President!

Forget Miranda rights, trials in civilian courts and other stupid concessions to the damn terrorists!

Mr. President, you were elected to protect and defend the American people. Do not violate that trust by concerning yourself with the well-being of renegade killers stuck in the 7th century!

New Year, Same Old Devastating Jobs News


















By John W. Lillpop


Those hoping for an Obama fairy-tale beginning to 2010 were bitterly disappointed by the latest jobs news.

As reported at Yahoo.com, in part: (1)

“WASHINGTON (AP) -- Lack of confidence in the economic recovery led employers to shed a more-than-expected 85,000 net jobs in December even as the unemployment rate held at 10 percent. The rate would have been higher if more people had been looking for work instead of leaving the labor force because they can't find jobs.

“The sharp drop in the work force -- 661,000 fewer people -- showed that more of the jobless are giving up. Once people stop looking for jobs, they're no longer counted among the unemployed.

“When discouraged workers and part-time workers who would prefer full-time jobs are included, the so-called "underemployment" rate in December rose to 17.3 percent, from 17.2 percent in November. That's just below a revised figure of 17.4 percent in October, the highest on records dating from 1994.”


Imagine that: 10.0 percent unemployment and 17.3 percent under employment--all for just one trillion dollars of stimulus pork! What a deal!

Another 85,000 out of work and this president and liberals in Congress want to grant amnesty to millions of illegal aliens, many whom hold jobs that should be filled by Americans!

How about a win-win proposal that will help America and clean up the illegal alien mess all at once?

The win one for America proposal: Put US citizens who are unemployed to work in hunting down and deporting illegal aliens and in assisting border patrol agents secure our borders.

Say what? That would be unfair and discriminatory?

Yep, it sure would. But then again, so is allowing 20 million illegal aliens to steal hundreds of billions of dollars each year from US taxpayers.

How about some unfair and discriminatory actions by the government in favor of hard-working, tax-paying US citizens for a change?

BREAKING NEWS! President Obama Declares War on Al-Quaeda!

By John W. Lillpop


In a stunning reversal of previous White House tap dances and diversionary tactics, President Obama stood before the media and actually took responsibility for the lapse in security that nearly cost more than 200 people their lives on Flight 253 .

As reported, in part, at thehill.com:

“President Barack Obama on Thursday took responsibility for a "systemic failure" that allowed an alleged terrorist to board a flight to the U.S.

”The president made the announcement at the White House after his national security team concluded the initial reviews Obama ordered after Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab attempted to detonate a plastic explosive aboard a Detroit-bound plane.

"Ultimately, the buck stops with me," Obama said.

"We are at war," Obama said. "We are at war with al-Qaeda."

Given the events of 9.11, Obama’s declaration would seem to be an unneeded rehashing of the very obvious. However, this is the president who eradicated the term “war on terror” from the vernacular and who has apologized for American policies and leaders on Muslim soil ever since his inauguration.

How refreshing to hear Obama discuss a major crisis without blaming George W. Bush.

Former Vice President Dick Cheney seems to have been a powerful factor in influencing Obama’s words, and, hopefully, future actions.

For that, America owes Dick Cheney a huge thank you!

Another Trillion Dollar Mistake in the Offing, Mr. President?

By John W. Lillpop

Dear President Obama,

One of your first acts after being inaugurated as America’s 44th President was to push Congress to send you a “stimulus” package for sparking the depressed economy into recovery.

As the bill was winding its way through Congress, you insisted that passing the legislation was of such urgency that the normal procedures for debate and reconciliation should be put in abeyance.

There was simply not enough time for the professional checks and oversights that would normally apply when nearly one trillion dollars of taxpayer money is at risk.

In exchange for sidestepping the normal procedures and acting with haste, you promised the American people that the “stimulus” would create or save 3-4.5 million jobs in short order.

Nearly twelve months later, the national unemployment rate has ballooned to the highest level in 30 years with nearly 15 million Americans out of work. Those 3-4.5 million jobs that you promised are but an illusion as Congress and your administration consider yet another stimulus package, after already extending unemployment benefits.

Clearly, the stimulus was based on miscalculations of major proportions. The rush to legislate without due consideration was surely another factor leading to failure.

Unfortunately, money spent in the name of stimulus accrues directly to the national deficit, an entity which is already dramatically out of control.

On the heels of the trillion dollar stimulus mistake, your administration and the Congress are closing in on what is called health care reform.

As with the stimulus package, the American people are being told that there is not enough time to intelligently debate and reconcile the various issues that make health care reform so complex.

Again, urgency trumps discipline and prudence. Resolution of differences between the House and Senate versions of the bill will be conducted in secret, hidden away from the American people.

With all due respect, sir, is health care reform another trillion dollar mistake in the offing?

Whither Senators Feinstein, Boxer in California’s Great Hour of Need?







By John W. Lillpop


Calfornia used to be a great and propserous state. This most western state on mainland USA was at the cutting edge of technology, fashion, education, and all other human endeavors.

However, after years of ruinous governance by far left radicals in Sacramento, California is on the brink of bankruptcy and is now considered the ‘crazy aunt in the basement’ by more conventional folk.

In his recent State of the State address, California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger called another special session of legislators to deal with another multi-billion dollar hole in the state budget.

Moreover, California’s Kennedy-tainted governor, who recently gave President Obama an “A” for his first year in office, used the State of the State to blast ObamaCare.

As reported, in part, at Politoc.com:

“California Gov . Arnold Schwarzenegger savaged congressional plans for health reform in his 2010 State of the State address on Wednesday, calling the legislation "health care to nowhere" that's infected with "bribes, deals and loopholes."

“With the nation's largest state enduring a fiscal crisis, Schwarzenegger said California's lawmakers should vote against the bill or push to get the Medicaid subsidies that were written into the Senate bill in order to secure Sen. Ben Nelson (D-Neb.) as the 60th and passing vote for that chamber's version of reform. The deal has been attacked as the "Cornhusker Kickback."

"While I enthusiastically support health care reform, it is not reform to push more costs onto states that are already struggling while other states get sweetheart deals," Schwarzenegger said before a joint session of the California State Legislature.”

"Health care reform, which started as noble and needed legislation, has become a trough of bribes, deals and loopholes. You've heard of the bridge to nowhere. This is health care to nowhere. California's congressional delegation should either vote against this bill that is a disaster for California or get in there and fight for the same sweetheart deal Senator Nelson of Nebraska got for the Cornhusker State. He got the corn; we got the husk."


Strong language there, guv!

The big question: Have either of California’s Senators been paying attention? Does Senator Feinstein or Senator Boxer realize that ObamaCare would add to the grief and devestation of our state?

The bigger question: Do either of these two very liberal politicians have the intelligence and guts to vote against ObamaCare in California’s great hour of need?

Surprised by Flight 253 Terrorist Incident? Why?




















By John W. Lillpop

Why in the world would anyone who is alert enough to breathe be in the least bit surprised by the Flight 253 terrorist carnage on Christmas day?

After all, our once formidable nation is now “led” by a community organizer who would rather blame George W. Bush for the war on terror than actually taking action to win the damn thing.

Under the Obama administration, the White House itself has become vulnerable to anyone roaming about the neighborhood of 1600 Pennsylvania looking to crash a party and perhaps exchange pleasantries and hobnob with high officials like ‘Bama and his sullen mate.

Under Obama, terrorists captured on the battle field while trying to kill or main young American soldiers are treated like US citizens with all the rights and privileges attendant therewith.

Only an Obama administration would entrust Homeland Security to a despicable clown like Janet Napolitano who actually regards illegal aliens as “Newly Arrived Fugitives,” and who believes that Farouk Abdulmutallab’s joy ride over the skies of Detroit proved that the “system works.”

Only President Obama would take three whole days to issue a public statement about Flight 253, but who was ready to castigate Dick Cheney immediately after the former Vice President had the audacity to tell the truth about Obama’s dangerous and misguided pretense that the war on terror was just a way for Bush and Cheney to keep the American people enchained in fear and Halliburton coffers flush.









Only President Obama would bow before the king whose nation was home to the 19 terrorists who executed 9.11.

Given the facts, it is clear that Barack Obama has neither the will nor ability to defend America.

Which again begs the question: Are you safer now than you were before noon, January 20, 2009?

Barack Obama: Pretending to Be Presidential





Barack Obama: Pretending to Be Presidential









By John W. Lillpop


Former Vice President Dick Cheney ruffled a good many elitist feathers recently when he accused the president of pretending that America is not at war. Cheney’s words were immediately challenged by the same fellow who took three days to make a public statement about the terrorist incident on Flight 253 this Christmas Day.

So which one is right? Is Cheney overstating the situation, or is President Obama in denial?

It may be the latter, considering other similar positions taken by President Obama. Namely:

* Islam is a religion of peace: 9.11, the Fort Hood slaughters, and Flight 253 are but isolated examples

* Shutting down GITMO will eventually persuade Muslim fanatics to give up IEDs and suicide bombings

* Janet Napolitano was the most qualified person in all of America to be Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security

* The “Bush Recession” is over, although his sky-high unemployment numbers continue to linger

* Working as planned: The trillion dollar stimulus which was supposed to create or save 3-4 million jobs

* Spending additional trillions of dollars is absolutely essential in order to reduce the federal deficit

* Adding 30 million to the ranks of the insured will cut overall medical costs, reduce the deficit, improve the quality of care and will not result in higher taxes

* 250 million Christians live here; however, America is not a Christian nation

* Hillary Clinton is perfectly content to be Secretary of State and has no aspirations for higher elective office

* Amnesty for 20 million illegal aliens has nothing whatsoever to do with growing the base of the Democrat party

* The Obama administration “saved the US economy” from falling into a devastating depression

* “Unprecedented breakthrough” and “meaningful agreement” were produced at the Global Warming conference in Copenhagen

* ClimateGate is a vast right wing conspiracy designed to embarrass Al Gore and Barbara Boxer

* Winning the war in Afghanistan is a top priority, provided that the troops can be brought home at least one year ahead of the 2012 election

* Reading terrorists captured on the battle field their Miranda rights will convince the Mullahs of Iran to shut down all of their 10,000 enrichment centrifuges

* All problems currently vexing America originated with former President George W. Bush

And the number 1 pretense of all: Barack Obama’s first year in office merits a B+!
