Whatever Happened to the “Post Racial” America?

By John W. Lillpop


From the cow pastures of Nevada to the courts of the National Basketball Association (NBA), America’s preoccupation with race relations and racism has been stoked to a bloody frenzy.

It seems like just yesterday, a young, clean and articulate Democrat Senator from Illinois captured the imagination of the nation, and the world, really, with ringing oratory and powerful Promises of Hope and Change.

Among his most inspiring words were Obama’s promise to usher in a “Post Racial” era, where, under the leadership of the first American president of color, divisions between the races could be soothed and allowed to heal.

He could do it, Obama stated, just as he promised to bring Muslims, Christians, and Jews together!

Unfortunately, the Obama presidency has not improved racial relations in America; in fact, relations have deteriorated badly during his watch.

Of course it would be foolish to blame Obama alone for the current racial turmoil that permeates American life.

Still, one cannot help but wonder if the flames would be less intense if the President made an honest effort to put out the fire, rather than pouring gasoline on the flames in order to divide people for political gain?

Perhaps The One could soothe, rather than aggravate, the situation by promoting diplomacy rather than further division?

After all, it was he who promised a “Post Racial” America.

Barack Pivoting Back to “Dumb War” in Iraq?

By John W. Lillpop


Although Vice President Joe Biden once proudly declared, “I am very optimistic about -- about Iraq. I mean, this could be one of the great achievements of this administration” and his boss, Barack Obama, is still taking undeserved bows for cleaning up the mess left by GW Bush, the actual situation  renders the Biden-Obama rhetoric more specious than factual.

Indeed, as is the case with nearly all of Obama’s highly-touted “achievements,” the Obama victory in Iraq has deteriorated to the point where a pivot back to “Dumb War” status seems more and more likely.

As reported:

The United States is quietly expanding the number of intelligence officers in Iraq and holding urgent meetings in Washington and Baghdad to find ways to counter growing violence by Islamic militants, U.S. government sources said.

A high-level Pentagon team is now in Iraq to assess possible assistance for Iraqi forces in their fight against radical jihadists from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), a group reconstituted from an earlier incarnation of al Qaeda, said two current government officials and one former U.S. official familiar with the matter.

Senior U.S. policy officials, known as the "Deputies Committee," met in Washington this week to discuss possible responses to the deteriorating security outlook in Iraq, said a government source, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the subject matter.

White House spokeswoman Bernadette Meehan declined to comment.

The meetings underscore how Iraq's instability is posing a new foreign policy challenge for President Barack Obama, who celebrated the withdrawal of U.S. troops more than two years ago. Despite the concern, officials said it remains unclear whether Obama will commit significant new resources to the conflict.

Four months after Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki declared war on Sunni militants in Iraq's western Anbar province, the fighting has descended into brutal atrocities, often caught on video and in photographs by both militants and Iraqi soldiers.

Iraqi soldiers say they are bogged down in a slow, vicious fight with ISIL and other Sunni factions in the city of Ramadi and around nearby Falluja.”

Once again, naïve misunderstandings and simplistic miscalculations by our in-over-his-head Community Organizer threaten to make conditions worse.

Illinois Democrats Queasy About $100 Million Library for The One!

By John W. Lillpop


Not so very long ago, the world was seemingly in the clutches of “Obama mania,” an inexplicable form of dementia that turned otherwise sophisticated and intelligent folks into babbling fools when it came to the subject of Barack Hussein Obama.

This tragic “dumbing down”  of America led to the election, and reelection, of the most destructive man in US political history.

Barack Obama, otherwise known by mainstream media freaks and other low information mongrels, as The One has wreaked considerable damage on American sovereignty, culture, military defenses, moral values, and the economy, while almost single-handedly turning the “American Dream” into a bad joke.

Unfortunately, until quite recently, it seemed as though Obama would succeed in bluffing his way through the presidency despite his anti-American ideology, world class incompetence, and habitual lying.

It was as though the heavens had conspired against America in order to saddle our great nation with second-rate governance and deplorable moral decadence.

But, alas, it appears as though the Obama bubble has burst, or at least been pierced, by reality.

For example, Democrats in Illinois are having serious second thoughts about absconding with $100 million in taxpayer funds to erect a monument to abject failure: That would be the Barack Obama library!

As reported:

Illinois Democrats are backing off an effort to give $100 million in a push to land President Obama’s presidential library and museum -- following accusations of voting “shenanigans” and nasty Chicago-style politics, not to mention the state’s dire financial situation.

A Democrat-led House committee approved the money last week at an out-of-town hearing in Chicago with no Republicans in attendance. They instead relied on a procedural move that allowed them to use votes from a previous meeting.

“What they did last week was under-handed and sneaky and offers further proof that they no longer can be trusted with taxpayer money,” said House Republican Leader Jim Durkin.
State GOP Rep. Dwight Kay said his previous vote shouldn’t count because he was only a temporary member of the committee, beyond Democrats breaking their own House rules.

“This is typical Chicago politics at work,” he said. “The Chicago Democrats knew I wouldn’t support spending $100 million that we don’t have on a presidential library, so they decided to violate their own rules and cast my vote anyway.”

The deal has even taken a drubbing in the local editorial pages.

“A state that is nearly broke has no business spending $100 million on a potential Barack Obama presidential library,” says an editorial in the HeraldReview.com. “Throw in some parliamentary procedure shenanigans and the Obama presidential library is quickly becoming the typical Illinois government story -- spend money that isn't there and do it in a sneaky way.”
The editorial also points out the recent presidential libraries for Bill Clinton and the Bushes were built entirely with privately-raised funds.

The state has roughly $7 billion in past due vendor bills and a $100 billion shortfall in its employee pension programs. And the situation is so serious that Governor Quinn wants to make permanent a roughly 3-year-old tax increase, which was set to expire next year, to avoid having to make drastic budget cuts.

“The state of Illinois is beyond broke,” Durkin said.”

While the issue is not fully resolved, it is encouraging to note that some Democrats in Illinois appear ready to break free from the deadly grip of Obama Mania!

SCOTUS Nixes Reverse Racial Discrimination in College Admissions

John W Lillpop

Editor:

Eradicating racial discrimination should be a goal of all for all in a society that bills itself as committed to equality.

Unfortunately, for far too long, progressives have been able to sell the notion that Affirmative Action, an euphemism for reverse discrimination, is acceptable as a remedy to counter discrimination suffered by people of color.

However, the Supreme Court ruled otherwise on Tuesday in deciding the fate of racial preferences as a basis for admissions at the University of Michigan. By a vote of 6-2, the court upheld Michigan’s ban on the use of race as a factor for determining college admissions.

This decision sends a long-overdue message: Two wrongs do not make a right!

English Versus Spanish: A Question of Racism?

20032007

By John W. Lillpop

In a rare show of populist wisdom several years ago, California voters passed Proposition 227 to abolish most forms of bilingual education. The premise was quite simple: Pampering non-English speaking youngsters with bilingual instruction is counterproductive, and not in the best interests of the young learners.

Unfortunately, some Hispanics educators still refuse to abide by the law and continue to teach in Spanish.

One such so-called educator was recognized as “Teacher of the Year” by a San Diego school district several years ago. Pancho, which is not his real name, proclaimed it his duty to instruct Hispanics in their native tongue, and hailed this defiance of state law as a major accomplishment.

Were it not for the fact that California’s educational system is administered almost exclusively by outlaw liberals, Pancho would have been fired and his teaching credentials permanently revoked. By refusing to expose his students to the language needed to succeed in America, Pancho should also be arrested and charged with child endangerment/abuse.

As an educator, Pancho should know that California now requires students to pass a test in order to graduate from high School. One of the test subjects is English proficiency.

Do you get that, Pancho? English, not Spanish, is a requirement for high school graduation in California.

California does not test for Spanish proficiency because English is the predominate language in California and throughout America. Internationally, mastery of English, not Spanish, is vital.

Pancho probably labels those who want English to be the official American language as “racists.” However, I doubt that Pancho sees himself as a racist for preferring Spanish to English.

In fact, Pancho probably believes that his defiance of state law is perfectly justified because bilingual education means diversity.

To liberals, “Diversity is our greatest strength” is recognized and accepted as the new pledge of allegiance to socialism.

California parents please remember this: English proficiency is required to graduate high school. Spanish proficiency is required to pick fruit and operate leaf blowers.

Which future do you want for your child?

 

 

 

Happy Earth Day? NOT If I Can Help It!

By John W. Lillpop


Ready or not, Earth Day is here again.

As usual, April 22 will be sequestered by the mainstream media and progressive knuckleheads and exploited to advance liberal heresy on climate change, illegal immigration, higher taxes, income inequality, gay marriage and other issues that have absolutely nothing to do with dirt.

Its all a fantastic lark fostered by Marxist mental midgets in government and the mainstream media, conjoined in a conspiracy to disassemble and destroy capitalism and all quaint, old school notions of individual liberty and decency.

Thus, Earth Day will be devoted to the programmed  exploitation (or advanced exploitation) of weak-minded progressive dolts who will be taught to hate coal, oil, gas, and all other forms of energy, except wind and solar.

Several activities are recommended for those who like to piss off dim wits like Al Gore. 

Among the most favored anti-Al Gore activities are:

( ) Accumulate at least 30 old, oversized truck tires and set the mass ablaze. Rekindle often so as to keep a solid pillar of black smoke ripping through the sky for at least two days;

( )Locate at least 7 vehicles that have failed recent Smog emission tests and are emitting oil smoke in noxious clouds. Start each vehicle and leave running for a minimum of four hours;

( )Even though it may be a balmy 80 degrees in your yard, fire up the inside fireplace and keep it going for the entire day. Rekindle with oil-soaked rags every hour or so;

( )Sponsor and attend as many backyard BBQs as possible;

( )Collect as many copies of Al Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth” and toss said copies on the tire fire previously mentioned.

If all goes well, this April 22nd could be a “Screw the Air” day to remember forever!

Happy Earth Day?  Not a chance!

You Are a left-wing Extremist If...

By John Lillpop

 
Remember the controversy that ensued when the Department of Homeland Security warned that “right wing extremists” represented a serious domestic terrorist threat?

That government over reach is being countered by a responsible, moderate look at left-wing extremists by conservative patriots in order to identify and deal with terrorist threats from the left.

According to prudent sources, You Are a left-wing Extremist and a potential threat, If You Believe that…

* The U.S. Constitution is unconstitutional because women, racial, sexual preference, and religious minorities were all under represented in 1776

* Nancy Pelosi understands the Catholic Church’s teachings on abortion and gay marriage better than all popes, past, present, and future

* Birth certificates and picture Ids must produced to purchase a gun, but are completely unnecessary in order to prove eligibility for the US presidency

* Freedom of choice is inalienable, except when it comes to heath care, saving for retirement, and other decisions best left to government

* Vast sections of America are still owned by Mexico, despite the Treaty of Guadeloupe, which was approved by both Mexico and America in 1848

* Silencing conservative talk radio is vital to America’s national defense

* Anthony Weiner was a greater patriot and more honorable than Dick Cheney

* Rachel Maddow would make a terrific Secretary of Defense

* Hillary Clinton is a better role model than Mother Teresa

* The right of government trumps all individual rights, notwithstanding the Constitution and the Bill of Rights

* Reparations should be paid to African Americans who can prove that they voted for Obama in 2008 and 2012

* Speaking English within ear shot of Hispanics obviously here illegally is a serious hate crime

* Straight, white, employed, Christian, Republican males should notify the local police 60 days before moving into a new neighborhood

* Burning Old Glory is protected free speech, whereas rants by conservatives like Rush Limbaugh are “hate speech”

* A woman’s right to abort the life of an innocent child is inalienable; whereas execution of a convicted killer is cruel, unusual & barbaric

* Starving a helpless victim like Terri Schaivo to death is acceptable, but using lethal injection to end the life of a brutal killer is not

* Publicly wishing a friend or family member “Merry Christmas” is clearly an act of civil disobedience and unconstitutional, is ample justification for immediate arrest and imprisonment


* While symbols of Christianity must be hidden from public view, Islam must be openly promoted in the name of religious awareness and tolerance

* Separation of state and government applies only to Christianity and Judaism

* Leveling the playing field between haves and have-nots and eradicating income inequality is the most important function of government, even more so than national security

* Tax cuts are wrong when returned to people who actually paid taxes, but perfectly fine when sent to those who paid none

* Paying higher taxes is the highest “Patriotic” calling one answer

* Marriage is no longer necessary to sanctify man-woman relationships; however, it is absolutely essential that same-sex couples be allowed to marry

* Enforcing U.S. borders and immigration laws is wrong because it discriminates against Hispanics

* Those who support English as America’s official language are racists, but those who prefer Spanish and other foreign languages over English are OK because of the inherent value of diversity

* Conservatives who seek to preserve American culture are hate mongers, whereas immigrants are encouraged to celebrate their heritage even if it interferes with assimilation into mainstream America

* Skyrocketing energy costs devastate working American families, but protecting Alaskan wild life is a greater priority

* Outsourcing American jobs to foreign nations is driven by immoral corporate greed, but open borders and amnesty are acceptable because most illegal aliens are future Democrats who will also pay union dues

* Huge profits are obscene, except when enjoyed by George Soros, Bill and Hillary Clinton, Oprah Winfrey, and other liberals

* Military force must never be used, except when needed to hide a Democrat president’s sexual misconduct in the Oval Office

* Invading a foreign nation is wrong, except when aliens from Mexico invade America


Bottom line: Being a left-wing extremist is the least patriotic behavior that one can engage in. Avoid liberalism at all costs!

“Undocumented” Boomers Head to Mexico!

Satire By John W. Lillpop


An Open Letter To Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto


Dear President Nieto:

As you are no doubt aware, America the Great is quickly becoming America the Gray. The so-called "boomer" generation, comprised of tens of millions of maturing geezers, is rapidly approaching retirement age.

As they age, America's boomers yearn for a less frantic pace---and a lifestyle that allows one to pause and smell the roses now and again.

In other words, boomers are looking for the "Good Life" which is supposed to accrue to those who work 45 or 50 years, pay ungodly amounts in taxes, raise a family, put children through college, and baby-sit the grandchildren.

Unfortunately, the United States is no longer as hospitable as it once was to graying citizens, especially now that our economy has collapsed, and our government is in the hands of renegade Marxists whom favor younger folks on whom higher and ever higher taxes can be levied.

As a result of the ever increasing discrimination against people of age in America, boomers have decided to move to your beloved Mexico.

Knowing that the Mexican government is a strong supporter of open borders and liberal immigration policies, as least with respect to migrations from Mexico to America, boomers anticipate that their needs and wishes will be fully accommodated with minimal interference and bureaucratic hassle.

In plain English, boomers expect to be treated like upscale Mexican citizens, with all the perks and advantages attendant thereto.

Incidentally, we prefer to be called "undocumented boomers."

President Nieto, I am delighted to announce that tens of millions of undocumented American boomers are headed to Mexico!

Viva America!

Current plans call for millions of boomers to cross the border into Mexico each month.

As with any complex transition, there are several "ground rules" that must be followed in order to make this cultural and educational enhancement of Mexico seamless.

Accordingly, your attention is directed to the following action items:

* Mexican sovereignty, borders, and immigration laws are essentially null and void with respect to undocumented boomers. No attempt should be made to enforce said restrictions on good hearted, formerly hard working Americans.

* Undocumented boomers shall receive unlimited education, food, housing, legal assistance, and geriatric care on demand, the cost of which shall be borne solely by Mexican taxpayers.

* Mexican hospitals, medical clinics, and emergency rooms shall be obligated to meet the medical needs of all undocumented boomers, without regard to ability to pay.

This obligation shall not be limited or restricted in any way because of any real or projected negative impact on Mexico's medical systems, including the loss of vital services to Mexican citizens.

* Although undocumented boomers shall not be obligated to pay for medical services received, they shall be entitled to send $100-200 billion a year back to the United States with impunity. The Mexican government shall actively facilitate the transfer of such funds to America.

* English is the only language used by undocumented boomers; boomers have no desire or obligation to learn Spanish.

* America's historic free speech, free love, and anti-war revolutions originated with activists in the boomer generation.

In keeping with the boomer tradition of aggressive activism, from time to time it may be necessary for millions of boomers to take over the streets of Mexico's large cities in order to protest proposed new laws when the "rights" of undocumented boomers are in jeopardy.

During such protests, boomers will wave Old Glory and scream "Yes, we can!" and "We are Mexico!" in English, as they protest the rule of law.

All such activities are valid free speech expressions in a thriving Democracy. As a consequence, the Mexican government shall take no action to limit or impede protests by undocumented boomers.

* We Americans celebrate the 4th of July to commemorate our independence from Great Britain. Undocumented boomers prefer to conduct business as normal on May 5 and September 16, and to reserve the 4th of July for fireworks, BBQs, and displaying Red, White, and Blue everywhere.

* Undocumented boomers shall be licensed to drive without regard to immigration status. All driver instruction and testing materials shall be in English.

* Blood relatives of undocumented boomers shall be eligible for the same reduced tuition rates offered to Mexican students in the nation legally. Immersion for the purpose of teaching Spanish is a failed concept and shall not even be attempted.

* Undocumented boomers shall be eligible to vote in Mexican elections without any requirement to prove identity.

* Grandchildren of undocumented boomers born in Mexico shall be Mexican citizens by virtue of their birth, regardless of the immigration status of their parents and grand parents, and

* Undocumented boomers are very sensitive and are easily offended. Therefore, Mexicans shall refrain from using terms like "illegal alien," "Red Neck," "Cracker" or "Gringo" when addressing or discussing boomers.

In closing, Mr. President, let me assure you that undocumented boomers will attempt to do for Mexico what 40 million Mexican illegal aliens are currently doing to America!

With best regards and wishes for a diverse and free Mexico!

A Reasonable Plan to End Illegal Immigration

by John W. Lillpop



Mr. President, Honorable Members of Congress:

Because our government has refused to secure America's borders and enforce our immigration laws, our nation is struggling to deal with as many as 12-38 million illegal aliens who have entered this great nation unlawfully.

Many are good-hearted, hard working folks, simply looking for a better life.

However, that description also applies to scores of millions of others throughout the world, just as eager, and just as deserving, for a chance at the American Dream.

But while America is overwhelmed with illegal aliens who have willfully violated our borders and laws, people in other parts of the world are ordered to stand in line, wait their turn, and do that which is required for legal immigration.

We tell such hopefuls that America operates in accordance with the rule of law, and that their immigration wishes must be handled fairly, according to law.

Many of those waiting in line are highly educated and well trained.

Unfortunately, the same can not be said for most illegal aliens currently in America.

Predominately from third-world Latin nations, they are typically non-English speaking, unskilled and poor. Such people impose extraordinary burdens on our all-ready stressed education, health care, and legal systems, and cost American taxpayers hundreds of billions each year.

In addition, while young American men and women are sent to serve in harm's way in Afghanistan, our own borders remain unsecured, making America vulnerable to further terrorist attacks.

Failure to secure the home front during time of war can only be seen as a mockery of the American lives and treasury sacrificed to secure freedom in foreign lands 10,000 miles from home.

Americans are well aware of the fact that immigration is the subject of intense debate in the hallowed halls of congress. We also hear that some legislative proposals would actually forgive those who have broken into America in defiance of our borders and laws.

In Washington parlance, the euphemism is "Immigration Reform."

Immigration reform is understood by everyone to be "amnesty," and is totally unacceptable to a large majority of the American people.

To reward those who are here illegally would only serve to invite another 30 million or so to invade, and would be an unmitigated outrage.

At some point, our government (you) must decide that America is a sovereign nation with borders and laws that really mean something.

Again: Amnesty is totally unacceptable.

A sensible approach to immigration reform should incorporate the ideas offered below:

Employers Must Be Forced to Follow the Law

Businesses that employ illegal aliens represent a major threat to U.S. homeland security and the war on terror. Such businesses must be punished to the full extent of the law, including severe criminal sanctions against management.

Deportations Essential

America can no longer tolerate a policy whereby the immigrant decides unilaterally to invade America---and gets away with it!

The U.S. government must have total control over who enters the nation, where they will reside, for what purpose authorized, and date by which that individual must leave.

No reform scenario should sanction illegals currently here. Intelligent reform should require that every illegal alien be deported.

Use Military Force to Secure Borders

Our borders must be secured by sufficient military troops and or national guardsmen authorized to use force as needed to prevent illegal entry into the U.S.

Temporary Work Permit (TWP)

A worker in a foreign nation wishing to APPLY for a TWP should be allowed to do so, PROVIDED he/she has not been in America unlawfully within the last five years.

Other conditions:

An American employer seeking services from a foreign worker should, in effect, sponsor the worker. That means assuring there is NO burden to the community by way of health care costs,education, crime, and the like.

Employers may chose to form cooperatives to purchase health insurance at group rates. However, any and all costs of such coverage should be absorbed by employers, not taxpayers.

A TWP should authorize a term of not greater than 18 months, and pertain only to the worker.(A worker's family could cost U.S. taxpayers substantially for health care, educational and
legal services systems, thereby mitigating any benefit realized by employing the worker.)

No worker on a TWP must be allowed to parent an “anchor baby." Existing U.S. laws conferring citizenship on those born to illegal aliens must be changed, retroactively.

Criminal behavior of any sort, even a misdemeanor, should require immediate deportation of the worker.

All of the worker's income should be subject to tax withholding according to procedures administered by employers.

The worker should acknowledge, in writing, his/her understanding and agreement that the TWP has a limited, non-extendable term, and that it confers no other benefits such as driver’s license, social welfare, in-state tuition breaks, or citizenship.

Employers must assure that the worker leaves the U.S. before expiration of the TWP. Any violations should cause the employer to be severely punished.

The labor needs of American business can be satisfied without jeopardizing homeland security or the economic and cultural stability of the American people.

However, we must secure the borders permanently, force employers to obey the law, deport those here illegally, and stop making it so easy and attractive for illegal immigrants to invade America.

Any amnesty proposal is NOT an acceptable alternative.

Trusting each of You to protect and defend the constitution from all enemies, foreign and domestic, I remain Sincerely Yours,

GOP Conspiracy to Keep Black Athletes Out of Major-League Baseball?

By John W. Lillpop


Baseball legend Hank Aaron gained fame and fortune with quick, powerful wrists and precise timing which enabled him to react to a baseball hurled at 100 MPH, often crushing the ball out of the park. In 1974, Aaron broke the homerun record of Babe Ruth; Aaron’s record has since been supplanted by Barry Bonds with a big assist from steroids.

Regrettably, Aaron took his eye off the ball recently to engage in a bit of race-baiting against Republicans.

As reported:

The firestorm erupted after 80-year-old Aaron, the senior vice president of the Braves, said in an interview with USA Today that America today is "not that far removed" from the racial intolerance of the mid-20th century.

On the 40th anniversary of his home-run record, he said, "Sure, this country has a black president, but when you look at a black president, President Obama is left with his foot stuck in the mud from all of the Republicans with the way he's treated. The bigger difference is that back then they had hoods. Now they have neckties and starched shirts."

Referring to current race relations in the country, he added, "We have moved in the right direction, and there have been improvements. But we still have a long ways to go in the country."

To prove his point, Aaron cited the decrease in U.S.-born black baseball players as evidence of modern-day structural racism.

There are only 67 black players in the major leagues, with three teams not represented by a single African-American player: the San Francisco Giants, Arizona Diamondbacks and St. Louis Cardinals, according to USA Today.”

 So, Republicans are responsible for the fact that there are only 67 black players in the big leagues, and that the number of blacks has decreased?

And it’s OK to blame the GOP for the fact that the San Francisco Giants, with a long and stories history of employing black superstars such as Barry Bonds, Willie Mays, Willie McCovey, et al.,  has no black players on its roster at the present time?

Shame on you, John Boehner and Mitch McConnell!

Just where is black Attorney General, Eric Holder, when you need him?  Covering up his complicity in the IRS scandal, or attacking Voter ID laws and other measures taken to prevent voter fraud?

Let Aaron’s cry be a Clarion call to Holder and the US Congress: We must have an investigation to determine why there only 67 black players in baseball!

Let guilty GOP members be perk- walked off the floors of the US House and Senate to send a strong message: Having only 67 black ball players in the big leagues is unacceptable and possibly unconstitutional. These human rights violations may require black president Barack Obama to issue Executive Orders to bring equality and justice to America’s past time!

Perhaps Holder and Barack could also take a cursory look at the National Basketball Association where blacks represent 90 % of the affiliated players?  Or would that be racist?

A 12-Step Recovery Program for Overcoming Liberal Insanity!

By John W. Lillpop

Surviving liberalism, especially the Obama-Pelosi-Reid variety, without drugs and alcohol can be a formidable task. Mind you, it is possible, provided one has a strong recovery program and a vast right- wing conspiracy to lean on for moral support.

The following 12-step program is offered free of charge for liberals ready to get right with life. Follow these simple steps and you can be healed in time for the November 4 election at which time you can join the revolution to take America back.

The twelve steps.

We recovering liberals:

Step 1: Admitted to being powerless over insane, illogical, and anti-American thinking spawned by liberalism which has made America unmanageable.

Step 2: Came to believe that a power greater than the combined forces of the DNC and the mainstream media could restore sanity to America.

Step 3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of social and fiscal conservatives for restoration of traditional family values and common decency.

Step 4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of all liberal politicians who must be removed from office, or prevented from securing elective office in the first place.

Step 5. Admitted to ourselves and, everyone else who would listen, the exact nature of wrongs committed by liberals.

Step 6. Were entirely ready to have conservative candidates remove all defective characters (liberals) from political office.

Step 7. Humbly worked to remove liberals from elective offices in all local, state, and federal jurisdictions.

Step 8. Made a list of all American patriot groups harmed by liberals and became willing to make amends to them all by winning the war on terror; reducing taxes, outlawing abortion, etc.

Step 9. Made direct amends to all such patriot groups wherever possible, except when to do so would cause them to register and or vote for Democrats.

Step 10. Continued to take inventory of all liberals and when they were wrong promptly admitted it and told them so..

Step 11. Sought through talk radio and blogging to improve public acceptance of conservative values as we understand them, and to improve our conscious contact with eligible voters everywhere, seeking only to win the White House and conservative majorities in both chambers of the U.S. Congress in order to have the power to advance the conservative vision for America.

Step 12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to all legal voters, and to practice these conservative principles in all our affairs.

To those too weak to adhere to this simple program, we recommend that the suffering liberal either take up smoking or excessive eating until the urge to think like a liberal passes.

Remember, even though liberalism is a severe mental disorder, it can be defeated!

An “Appropriate” Apology to Barack from Dr. Ben Carson

By John W. Lillpop


As has been widely reported, Barack Obama fell into a juvenile snit after being criticized by Dr. Ben Carson at a prayer breakfast in 2013.

As the story goes, the President, through the breakfast organizers, White House staff, or both, let it be known that he expected an apology.

The good doctor declined, asserting that, in his view,  an apology was unnecessary and inappropriate.

In the interest of promoting harmony among powerful public figures, the following apology seems appropriate and reasonable.


"To Barack Obama: I am sorry that you are such an inept and reprehensible poser. America deserves better, much better!"

Sincerely,

As Putin Terrorizes Europe, Obama Fights “Mad Cows” in Nevada!

By John W. Lillpop


The tumultuous situation in Ukraine has escalated dramatically, so much so, in fact, that Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev stated that the nation was on the verge of civil war as Kiev authorities launched a military operation against pro-Kremlin militants in the separatist east.

"I will be brief: Ukraine is on the brink of civil war, it's frightening," the country's former president was quoted as saying by Russian news agencies.

Meanwhile, back in the US, Presidential Poser Barack Obama continues to meet with top advisers and livestock scholars in a desperate attempt to diffuse a dangerous outbreak of “Mad Cow” disorder in which Nevada ranchers were savoring a victory over Obama’s Bureau of Land Management intellectuals whom had invaded the Bundy Ranch to quash an outbreak of “illegal cattle grazing.”

Thus, Vladimir Putin uses his KGB credentials and evil ways to conquer Europe and return Russia to the glory days of the Soviet Union, whilst Barack Obama chases 900 cattle around the bad lands of Nevada to divert public attention from his failed ObamaCare disaster!

Yes, Virginia, it is true: The era of American Exceptionalism is over!

Wars, Rumors of Wars, Earthquakes, & Blood Moons---Scary Signs, Or Glad Tidings from Above?

By John W. Lillpop

A bit of wisdom from one who once aspired to being a man of the cloth: Reading Revelations in the Bible should NOT be undertaken immediately before going to sleep!

Although the overall news—the return of Jesus Christ—is powerfully good, the description of things to come before one rests at the Right Hand of God in eternal glory can be unsettling, to say the least.

So unsettling that frightening dreams may ensue, thereby interrupting any chance one might have of enjoying blissful sleep.

Of course, with the tyrannical president and Congress now encumbering America, exposure to unsettling news is almost impossible to escape.  It’s what Obama and the Democrats do for a living, all in the name of “Progressive” liberation!

Liberation from one’s wealth, freedom, individuality, and common sense, that is!

From Obamacare; to the Bundy Ranch armed invasion by government supported by the Majority Leader of the US Senate owing to a vested desire to reward China with a solar power facility AND to enrich offspring and other familial interests; to $17 trillion in federal debt; to incendiary rhetoric from the Minority Leader of the US House intended to incite a race war in an election year, to the general dissatisfaction with the direction in which the nation is headed—the news from Washington D.C. is almost all dreadful, especially for those who believe that limited government and a free and vibrant electorate are necessary to fulfill  the “pursuit of happiness.”

Compared to all the negative news about the misdeeds of evil men and women in Washington, D.C., the descriptions in Revelations, while frightening, can also be exhilaratingly refreshing and uplifting!

Indeed, news of wars, rumors of wars, earthquakes, blood moons, and the like can be seen as hopeful signs that the End Times are nigh, that the decadence and moral decay which permeates the human spirit will soon (?) be disposed of in accordance with eternal and spiritual law.

Thus, rejoice when the ground shakes, rattles, and rolls, or when Barack Obama tells another lie!

It just may be the Creator's  way of reminding the faithful that “this too shall pass!" in the fullness of time!

To Nancy Pelosi, Abortion “Sacred Ground”; To Pope Francis, “Abominable Crime”

When it comes to the subject of abortion, the Catholic Church seems to be a huge “big ten,” with divergent views at both ends of the debate.

For example, Nancy Pelosi, Democrat Representative in the US House, said the following about abortion:
“As a practicing and respectful Catholic, this is sacred ground to me when we talk about this,” Pelosi said. “I don’t think it should have anything to do with politics.”

Not all Catholics would agree.

Most notably, Pope Francis issued a strong condemnation of abortion recently, calling it an “abominable crime” and saying the right to life is the central human right.

“We know human life is sacred and inviolable,” the Pope said. “Every civil law is based on the recognition of the first and fundamental right, that to life, which is not subject to any conditions, neither economic nor qualitative nor ideological.”

The big question: Given the strong condemnation voiced by the Pope, why is Nancy Pelosi not forbidden from taking communion?

 By not forcing Pelosi to do the right thing, is the Catholic Church guilty of complicity in the deaths of tens of millions of unborn?

 

Without 2nd Amendment, What Would Be Left of the Cliven Bundy Ranch?

By John W. Lillpop


Although the federal government has finally retreated from the Bundy ranch in Nevada without inflicting or suffering serious injury or fatalities, the episode should sound a loud wake-up call to Americans queasy about the 2nd Amendment and the right of citizens to bear arms.

Make no mistake about it. The Nevada showdown was about far more than illegal cattle grazing.

Indeed, at stake was the abuse of power by a tyrannical president whom often does not respect the rule of law, the US Constitution, or the US Congress which, much to the chagrin of that president, is empowered by the Constitution as an equal partner in the role of governance.

Tyrannical power versus the right of American citizens to own private property.

Tyrannical power versus the liberty and freedom of a society in which the government governs at the consent of the governed.

What would have been the outcome had there been no 2nd Amendment rights to protect the patriots whom opposed the government invasion of private property?

The 2nd Amendment right of citizens to “keep and bear arms” forced fuzzy- thinking government bureaucrats to retreat as reported:

"Based on information about conditions on the ground, and in consultation with law enforcement, we have made a decision to conclude the cattle gather because of our serious concern about the safety of employees and members of the public," BLM Director Neil Kornze said.


Without a 2nd Amendment, it is doubtful that the belligerent Obama government would have acted to avoid “serious concern about the safety of employees and members of the public."

God Bless the 2nd Amendment!

American Grit Triumphs Over Progressive Tyranny!

By John W. Lillpop


Whom would have thunk that a humble cattle rancher in Nevada would go toe-to-toe against the bloated, but armed, bureaucracy of the United States Bureau of Land Management--- and emerge the winner?

Oh, how SWEET the taste of victory by rancher Cliven Bundy over the tyranny of King Barack and his gang of armed bullies!  

In a story somewhat reminiscent of the battles fought and won by American patriots over King George over 200 years ago, Mr. Bundy et al. provided a “Teachable Moment” for King Barack and his inept government of anti-American Marxists, all of whom had apparently forgotten the inalienable sanctity of the right to private property and other individual rights guaranteed by the US Constitution!

One can almost imagine the thunderous roar of cheering  from the throats of the Founders as federal agents retreated from the Bundy ranch-- in defeat!

One can also imagine an excited spokesperson for the Founders saying, “By golly, those ranchers and those who support them get it! They really understand that government is subservient to the people, not the other way around. Our hard work from more than 230 years ago was NOT in vain!”

American grit over oppressive government!  That’s what America is all about.

As reported:

 A Nevada cattle rancher appears to have won his week-long battle with the federal government over a controversial cattle roundup that had led to the arrest of several protesters.
Cliven Bundy went head to head with the Bureau of Land Management over the removal of hundreds of his cattle from federal land, where the government said they were grazing illegally.
Bundy claims his herd of roughly 900 cattle have grazed on the land along the riverbed near Bunkerville, 80 miles northeast of Las Vegas, since 1870 and threatened a "range war" against the BLM on the Bundy Ranch website after one of his sons was arrested while protesting the removal of the cattle.
"I have no contract with the United States government," Bundy said. "I was paying grazing fees for management and that's what BLM was supposed to be, land managers and they were managing my ranch out of business, so I refused to pay."
The federal government had countered that Bundy "owes the American people in excess of $1 million " in unpaid grazing fees and "refuses to abide by the law of land, despite many opportunities over the last 20 years to do so."
However, today the BLM said it would not enforce a court order to remove the cattle and was pulling out of the area.
"Based on information about conditions on the ground, and in consultation with law enforcement, we have made a decision to conclude the cattle gather because of our serious concern about the safety of employees and members of the public," BLM Director Neil Kornze said.”

All Americans can be grateful for the fact that the conflict ended as it did with no loss of life or serious injury; however, one must ask:

Where in the hell was the “serious concern about the safety of employees and members of the public," before the armed rangers were deployed on private property in the first place?

Actually, true American patriots knew all along how this mess would end:

In an important election year, the Surrender Politics of Barack Obama and the progressives did not stand a chance against the American grit of we the people! 

Has Obama's Obsession with “Illegal Cattle Grazing” Driven US to Brink of Civil War?

By John W. Lillpop


Barack Obama has finally managed to drive Vladimir Putin from the front pages and BREAKING NEWS alerts by deploying armed US federal rangers from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in order to deal with “illegal cattle grazing” on the ranch of Cliven Bundy in Nevada.

Odd, that.

With perhaps as many as 20-40 million illegal aliens of unknown character and designs wandering about from coast to coast, Barack Obama has  declared war on several hundred  helpless cattle whose only known vice is unregulated (untaxed!) flatulence which, although it may contribute to the global warming myth, will surely dissipate, given enough time.

As reported:

A 20-year dispute between a Nevada rancher and federal rangers over illegal cattle grazing erupted into an Old West-style showdown on the open range this week, even prompting self-proclaimed members of militia groups from across the country to join the rancher in fighting what they say is U.S. "tyranny."

What began as a legal fight between longtime rancher Cliven Bundy and the U.S. Bureau of Land Management has escalated as Bundy kept his cattle on the federal land, and the government has responded by beginning roundups of the livestock.

A confrontation teetered on violence Wednesday when Bundy family members and dozens of supporters angrily confronted a group of rangers holding Tasers and barking dogs on leashes near Bunkerville, about 80 miles northeast of Las Vegas.

To some, the 67-year-old Bundy is a hero who hails from a long family of ranchers stretching back to the Wild West.

To environmentalists and the feds, however, he's an outlaw of sorts who owes U.S. taxpayers more than $1 million in unpaid grazing fees.”

All of one million dollars, you say?

In contrast, the growing illegal alien population sets back US taxpayers more than $100 BILLION a Year!

The story continues:

The U.S. government is rounding up Bundy's cattle that it says have been grazing illegally on public lands in Clark County for more than 20 years, according to the land-management bureau and the National Park Service.

Between Saturday and Wednesday, contracted wranglers impounded a total of 352 cattle, federal officials said. Bundy says he owns 500 of the more than 900 cattle that federal officials are planning to confiscate for illegal grazing, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported. Bundy told the newspaper that each head of his livestock is worth about $1,000.”

Once again the sheer incompetence of the Obama administration is exceeded only by the arrogance and mindless tyranny  present in the White House!

Forget the cattle, Barack! Defend our borders, defend and implement the rule of law, and remove illegal aliens from American soil—NOW!

Illegal Alien “Love”: All About Family, or American Booty? 

By John W. Lillpop


If one were to take Jeb Bush seriously--- something even he is too intelligent to do--- one might ask :Why does illegal alien “love” always flow toward the vast riches found in America?

If it is genuinely “love” of family as Jeb Bush contends with a straight face, rather than obsession with DINERO, free health care, free education, welfare, food stamps, and other American booty, why are the illegals always headed here?

If love of family is so powerful among illegals, why in the hell are they so willing to leave their beloved in Mexico in the first place.

Furthermore, if the Latino “love of family” trait is real, why does Mexico treat illegal-alien Latinos from Guatemala and other nations south of its borders with such inhumane contempt?

Why is there not a great migration of illegal alien Latinos from the US back to Mexico, all in the interest of love of family?

Bottom line: Jeb Bush and his “Illegal Alien Love” theory is just another example of uncontrolled  insanity from the Bush clan!

What About “School Lunch Inequality”?

By John W. Lillpop

Despite the gaudy victory speeches and staged celebrations prompted by the spurious success of Obamacare, Democrats whom are able to read and comprehend simple English, i.e., those not educated in California,  are running in dread fear that the “signature achievement” of the Obama presidency will also mark the end of liberalism, as we in America have come to know and loathe it.

Therefore, Marxist-elitists such as Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid are in panic mode as they seek to escape the wrath of voters come November. These leaders   are coalescing around corrupt, new ideas in search of innovative ways to, in colloquial terms, “put lipstick on a pig,” where the pig is Obamacare and the lipstick is the manufactured crisis of the unwashed classes, i.e., income equality and minimum wage.

Nancy Pelosi, daffiest of the daffy-elite, even went so far as to announce the “pivot” of her energies and intelligence, such as it is, from destruction of the best health-care system in the world toward jobs.

Jobs, Mrs. Pelosi?  Good heavens, a leading liberal has finally admitted that the Obamacare disaster has caused Democrats to take their eyes off the jobs ball!

Pelosi’s truth- letting is appreciated, even if unintentional!

Meanwhile, a new, disconcerting inequality is on the horizon with the potential to level the playing field and a few demented lefties at the same time.

The issue is school lunch inequality.

As reported, while Michelle Obama promotes her skimpy, stomach- turning school lunch ideas for consumption by the unwashed, her precocious daughters feast on menus designed by chefs at the Sidwell Friends school, a pricey, private school reserved for the offspring of the most elitist in Washington, D.C.

 First Lady Michelle Obama's daughters attend Sidwell Friends, and their meals include hot lunches that are prepared every day fresh-from-scratch. The company that caters the food, Meriwether-Godsey, uses chefs to prepare the food on-site - from scratch - with local and organic foods where possible.
Here's a sampling of the school's "soup of the day": Borscht, Tuscan white bean, Italian bean and kale, calico wild rice, Thai chicken coconut soup, local butternut squash soup, chilled cucumber and mint soup, and chilled blueberry soup.
Other delectable lunch items include:
Crusted tilapia
Herb roasted chicken
Strawberries and chevre salad
Freshly baked muffins
Pesto cream & garden fresh marinara sauce
Cheese tortellini
All natural house-made chicken fingers
Scallion rice
Roasted edamame & Shitake mushrooms
Jicama mango slaw
BBQ sliders
Pesto pasta
All natural rosemary chicken
Fresh herb risotto
All natural beef nachos
Vegetarian stuffed Portobello mushrooms
Baked lemon herb tilapia
Arugula, fennel and parmesan salad
Baked organic French fries
Baked three-cheese lasagna
Pepperoni flatbread pizza

If the items listed above look like they could appear on the menu at a wedding or a five-star restaurant, that's because the menus are prepared by people that have studied under Sous Chefs.”

So where in the name of equality and justice is the liberal concern for the less fortunate when it comes to school lunches?

The big question: Will the vile gap between what poor and  middle-class children are forced(at the behest of Michelle Obama) to eat at school as compared to the ostentatious grub that the Obama girls enjoy at Sidwell Friends precipitate a counter-revolution against liberal hypocrisy of sufficient magnitude to usher in a new wholly conservative Congress?

Indeed. what about “school lunch inequality,” America?

“Not Even a Smidgen of Corruption,” Mr. President?

By John W. Lillpop


During his Superbowl extravaganza with Bill O’Reilly in February,  Barack Obama attempted to fool O’Reilly and the American people with a “Quarterback sneak” around the truth, regarding the many scandals which have engulfed our beleaguered community organizer and his army of jaded Marxists.

According to Barack, he and his administration were, notwithstanding a few “bone-headed decisions,” as pure as the newly- fallen snow with respect to the murder of innocent Americans in Benghazi, the lies and deception surrounding ObamaCare, and the criminal targeting of conservatives by the IRS.

It was the IRS “fake scandal” which elicited the most morally-repugnant denial from the most prolific liar to have ever posed as US president.

For it was his response to questions about the IRS targeting of conservatives that caused Obama to emphatically deny wrong- doing, even going so far as to state that, “not even a smidgen of corruption” had tainted the IRS brand.

Really?

Subsequent to Obama’s assertions, Lois Lerner, former anti-Republican hench woman of the IRS, appeared before the US House and, once again, refused to testify by pleading her 5th Amendment right against self-incrimination.

Now, the US House is in the process of deciding if Lerner should be arrested.

Still, according to Barack and most Democrats, the “not even a smidgen of corruption” denial stands!

Then there is the bubbling news story concerning suspected illegal political activity in support of Barack and fellow Democrats in the very offices of the IRS!

As reported:

Even as the IRS faces growing heat over Lois G. Lerner and the tea party targeting scandal, a government watchdog said Wednesday it’s pursuing cases against three other tax agency employees and offices suspected of illegal political activity in support of President Obama and fellow Democrats.

In one case the Office of Special Counsel, which investigates federal employees who conduct politics on government time, said it was “commonplace” in a Dallas IRS office for employees to have pro-Obama screensavers on their computers, and to have campaign-style buttons and stickers at their office.

In another case, a worker at the tax agency’s customer help line urged taxpayers “to re-elect President Obama in 2012 by repeatedly reciting a chant based on the spelling of his last name,” the Office of Special Counsel said in a statement.

OSC said it is seeking “significant disciplinary action” against that employee.

         Another IRS employee in Kentucky has agreed to serve a 14-day suspension for blasting Republicans             in a conversation with a taxpayer.

“They’re going to take women back 40 years,” the IRS employee said in a conversation that was recorded. The employee also said that “if you vote for a Republican, the rich are going to get richer and the poor are going to get poorer.”

That employee went on to tell the taxpayer she knew she wasn’t supposed to be voicing her political opinions, and asked the taxpayer not to say anything.

In the Dallas situation, the OSC issued a letter to employees reminding them they aren’t allowed to do anything that would appear to be campaigning.

“Specifically, it was alleged that employees have worn partisan political stickers, buttons, and clothing to work and have displayed partisan political screensavers on their IRS computers. It was alleged that these items expressed support for President Barack Obama,” the OSC said.

The IRS issued a statement saying it couldn’t comment on specifics, but vowing it took complaints of politicking seriously.

“The IRS regularly reminds employees of the Hatch Act guidelines,” the agency said, adding that when reports of potential violations are received, the agency follows “proper procedures and protocols.”

Republicans on Capitol Hill, though, said the report showed an agency “out of control.”
“It’s no surprise that this is coming from the very same agency that targeted Americans based on their political beliefs,” said Rep. Sam Johnson, Texas Republican. “How can the American people trust IRS employees to perform their job duties in good faith?”

The obvious answer, Rep. Johnson, it that the American people cannot and DO NOT trust the IRS to act in “good faith.”

Which explains Obama’s dismal approval ratings and the growing outrage over this president’s lies and deception and pummeling of the US Constitution.

Indeed, Obama’s assertion that the IRS operates in a vacuum of non-partisan loveliness where ,“not even a smidgen of corruption” is found should make The One subject to impeachment and immediate removal from office!

In reality, lying to Bill O’Reilly and the world on national TV on Superbowl Sunday may be in terribly poor taste and otherwise wretched; however, it is probably NOT impeachable, but it damn well should be!

“Not even a smidgen of corruption,” Mr. President?

Oh, really!

Obama Illegal Alien Aunt Zeituni Passes: Leaves Legacy of Anti-Rule of Law Thinking!

By John W. Lillpop

Patriotic, law-abiding American citizens have been shocked and dismayed by President Obama’s consistent refusal to secure U.S. borders with Mexico and by his complete disregard for the rule of law in dealing with tens of millions of illegal aliens squatting here unlawfully.

Time and again, Obama has favored illegal aliens over American citizens, as he did with the treasonous use of Executive Orders to bypass federal law by exempting illegals from deportation.

An American president violates federal law in order to protect foreign invaders, in defiance of the Constitution and Congress?

What could possibly be going through Obama’s muddled mind in executing such an extreme anti-American Jihad?

A possible insight emerges from the life of Obama’s illegal alien aunt Zeituni Onyango who passed away in a Boston rehabilitation facility on Tuesday.

In an interview with WBZ-TV in Boston several years ago, Aunt Zeituni was quoted thusly:

 "If I come as an immigrant, you have the obligation to make me a citizen." Those are the words from 58-year-old Zeituni Onyango of Kenya in a recent exclusive interview with WBZ-TV.”

In other words, according to Obama relative Aunt Zeituni, America’s borders and laws are meaningless.

The needs and wishes of American citizens are irrelevant. when compared to the "obligation" to grant citizenship to all who come--even if they come illegally!

That sort of mangled logic, issued to mask criminality and barbaric selfishness, seems a fair recital of Obama’s immigration policy.

We must start the battle to reclaim America by defeating all Democrats who share Obama’s shameful views on immigration, and by working to make sure that Jeb Bush is not the GOP nominee in 2016!

Jeb Bush Should Listen to his Mum: Do NOT Run!

By John W. Lillpop


Over the past 25 years, the American people have exercised extremely poor judgment by electing two members of the Bush clan  to the US presidency.

Both presidencies have produced calamitous results.

GW Bush, in particular, did irreparable damage with his adamant refusal to enforce the nation’s borders and immigration laws against invaders from south of our prestigious land.

So narrow was W’s vision, that, even after the Islamic terrorist attack of 9/11, he blithely refused to take control of the US borders, preferring instead to pursue his wrong-headed, racist view that Hispanics who invade America are generally “good-hearted, hard working” amigos who should be welcomed, rather than deported, notwithstanding the rule of law and well being of US citizens.

Under W’s failed stewardship, the illegal alien problem in America grew even more devastating, as millions of non-English speaking peasants came unwelcome, and uninvited, to the US.

Contrary to W.’s naïve notion, illegals descended on America for free health care, education, welfare, food stamps and other booty reserved and paid for by American citizens.

It was DENIRO, not a burning lust for liberty, that caused illegals to cross the hot desert in search of the American Dream, one that is funded by American taxpayers, the tab for which is now estimated at $103 billion a year!

W.’s dereliction of duty set the table for Barack Obama, the current tyrant in chief, who has taken the unlawful decimation of America even further by using Executive Orders to circumvent codified immigration law.

Under the tyrannical, anti-American rule of Obama, illegal aliens are now more likely to win $150 million in the Power Ball lottery than facing deportation to their third-world sewer of origin.

Rather than just passively ignoring illegal aliens, Obama adds to the obstruction of justice by commanding his so-called Homeland Security department to create extra-legal means by which illegals can be specifically excluded from deportation.

Proactive criminality for people of color seems to be the Obama motto!

As outrageous as the W. and Obama pandering to illegals has been, even darker clouds of lawless governance is being proposed by yet another demented Bush.

That would be Jeb Bush, the alleged “smart” Bush brother, whose latest blathering on the inherent moral superiority of illegal aliens has grabbed headlines all across America.

This loosely-wrapped Bush actually tried a snake-oil charm offensive which sought to portray invading criminals as engaging in “acts of love.”

As reported:

Former Florida governor Jeb Bush said Sunday that many who illegally come to the United States do so out of an "act of love" for their families and should be treated differently than people who illegally cross U.S. borders or overstay visas.

 The comments came during an event marking the 25th anniversary of the presidency of George H. W. Bush at the library and museum that bears the name of the Bush patriarch. The event was closed to reporters, but moderated by Fox News anchor Shannone Bream and portions of the event were later broadcast on the Fox News Channel.

Asked about immigration, Bush started by saying that a bipartisan bill passed by the Senate last year made "a good effort" at proposing ways to ensure that people overstaying visas leave the country.

"A great country ought to know where those folks are and politely ask them to leave," he said, adding later that properly targeting people who overstay visas "would restore people's confidence" in the nation's immigration system.”

Actually, Mr. Bush, defending our borders aggressively and taking action to forcibly remove illegal aliens promptly would do wonders for confidence in our immigration system.

That confidence is at an all time low because of the idiotic indifference to the rule of law as practiced by your irresponsible brother and Barack Obama.

As to another Bush for president campaign, America simply CANNOT afford another Bush-whacking from the Oval Office.

Instead, Jeb Bush would do well to listen to his mother whom was reported as saying:

“His mother, Barbara Bush, told C-Span in January that she hopes her son doesn’t run. “If we can’t find more than two or three families to run for high office, that’s silly,” she said. “I think that the Kennedys, Clintons, Bushes—there are just more families than that.”

In other words, Jeb, America simply does not need another Bush in the White House!

Do Not Run!

“Friendly Fire” Clears Chris Christie As Federal Grand Jury Gears-up for RINO Hunt!

By John W. Lillpop


New Jersey Governor Chris Christie made big news last week by releasing a report which appeared to exonerate the husky RINO of wrong doing in the Bridge Gate kerfuffel.

Trouble is, the report was prepared by a private law firm hired by Christie; thus, rendering the results essentially worthless, except in the mind and soul of the desperate governor whom is struggling to remain viable among potential GOP candidates for the presidency in 2016.

Christie’s long-shot prospects were not helped in the least by the federal government, mostly still the exclusive province of Barack Obama and deeply-partisan liberals, all of whom would savor the opportunity to send Christie across the Washington Bridge en route to federal prison, just in time for the November, 2016 election.

Even though Hillary Clinton may not be the donkey of choice for some liberals, she is still far and away preferable to Christie whose brand is irreconcilably tainted by the detestable R next to his name.

Thus, the federal government has targeted Chris Christie for a fate worse than water-boarding, as reported at the reference:

A federal grand jury is investigating NJ Governor Chris Christie’s involvement in the George Washington Bridge traffic scandal and heard hours of testimony Friday from Christie press secretary Mike Drewniak.

The US Attorney in New Jersey is taking the investigation extremely seriously, and recently increased the number of investigators on the case from three to 10, sources told the Post.
Drewniak’s lawyer, Anthony Iacullo, said the aide wasn’t a target of the investigation.
“We’re here to answer questions and that’s what Michael did today,” Iacullo told ABC.
The convening of a grand jury means the “Bridgegate” probe has progressed from a preliminary inquiry into the criminal phase of the investigation.

Ex-Christie aides allegedly ordered the shutdown of two traffic lanes near the bridge last year, causing gridlock in the nearby town of Fort Lee, to retaliate against the Democratic mayor who didn’t endorse Christie in his re-election bid.

Christie’s office is also being probed by a state legislative panel.”

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

Many conservative Republicans regard Christie, and his moderate-to-left views, as dangerous for America and would prefer to see the Governor fighting government indictments rather than doing battle with conservative candidates for the 2016 nomination.

For such folks, the glad word to the federal grand jury is, “Happy Hunting!”

Obamacare Sign-ups, Mid-East Peace Talks: More Barack "Success" Stories!

By John W. Lillpop


To most normal people, the word Success means attainment of a positive goal, an achievement worthy of celebration.

However, since most Democrats are not normal, they are often confused when it comes to application of the word to important political issues.

Which is why Barack Obama’s stumbling and bumbling over the use of chemical weapons in Syria was so devastating to American honor and prestige throughout the world, particularly since a leading Democrat in the US Congress, Nancy Pelosi, described the Obama misfire as a smashing “victory” for the good guys.

According to the perpetually- deluded Pelosi, the Syrian proposal advanced by Vladimire Putin was a “victory for President Obama.”

How utterly clever of Putin to parlay his eyeball-to-eyeball stare down with Obama into a bold policy which saw the Kremlin swallow Crimea, while amassing 100,000 or so Russian troops near Ukraine!

What a huge W for The One!

Just this past week, the Obama victory machine was working overtime to keep up with glad tidings both domestic and foreign.

On April fools Day, glad hands were all about as Barack Obama and Joe Biden celebrated the attainment of something involving the number 7.1 million and the Obamacare healthcare scam.

In fact, Team Obama was so enthralled by their “victory” over liberty and free market economics, that the White House requested valuable primetime air to trumpet the 7.1 fairy tale to the American people.

As reported at the reference, network moguls were not convinced:


WASHINGTON — White House officials sought valuable primetime air for a rare, impromptu Tuesday night address to tout the accomplishment of signing up more than 7 million people under the Affordable Care Act.

But network officials refused to make the kind of accommodation they did previously for the announcement that Osama Bin Laden had been killed, for instance, and Obama was left instead cutting into the much smaller audiences of Ellen and other daytime shows.

Three sources familiar with the request confirmed the White House asked for the primetime slot in their effort both to emphasize a bright moment following the challenging roll out and, more important, to try to reintroduce the country to a law that remains unpopular.”


Meanwhile, as US Secretary of State John Kerry continues to make a donkey of himself and American foreign policy throughout the world, another unexpected “victory” occurred
with Israel’s cancellation of prisoner releases that were considered crucial to keeping peace talks alive.

As reported, “Kerry risks being seen as trying too hard at the expense of a range of other pressing international issues, and perhaps even his reputation, according to several senior administration officials who spoke on the condition of anonymity about sensitive internal and diplomatic matters.”

Notwithstanding these Obama “victories,” there were disappointing moments as well. Such as the ruling by the SCOTUS concerning free speech versus nanny-state policing of campaign financing.

Ever diligent about seeing Victory in everything Obama touches, Nancy Pelosi pointed out that justices Sotomayor and Kagan, both Obama SCOTUS nominees, voted for tyranny and against free speech!

SWEET victory!

Liberals to Capitalize on Fort Hood Slaughter to Offset Obamacare Losses in Mid-term Elections?

By John W. Lillpop


It would be altogether wrong to accuse Democrats of openly plotting to use the tragic events at Fort Hood as a means for offsetting the calamitous impact expected to ensue from Obamacare during the upcoming elections.

Right?

After all, four Americans lost their lives, several more were injured on this tragic day. Surely, even power-mad liberals would not ignore death and injury inflicted on innocent  Americans just for purely selfish political purposes?

Right?

WARNING: The above question must be answered honestly and without even thinking the word Benghazi or the name Hillary Clinton!

Still, the American people can expect to be bombarded with a tsunami of self-righteous indignation and 2nd Amendment bashing from the likes of Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and other left-wing hypocrites, even before all the facts are in, and before the most basic elements of  truth are gleaned.

Furthermore, in their role as media lap dogs for the DNC, CNN probably has issued an urgent wire
to Piers Morgan offering an apology for his widely advertised termination and an invite to drive Ted Turner’s leftist empire into further ratings hell.

The BREAKING NEWS Headline: Americans slaughtered, Piers Morgan vindicated!

As serious Americans ponder the consequences of untoward gun violence, a coalition of leftist nut balls in Congress is in the process of crafting new, tougher gun control laws which would take guns out of the hands of law-abiding patriots and sportsmen, while doing nada to prevent insane soldiers from acting out on military bases where guns are, necessarily, as free-flowing and common as money laundering and bribery on the hallowed halls of our corrupt Congress.

Still, one is tempted to look to enlightened Progressives for solutions to difficult issues.

Indeed, why not heed the words of intellectually-gifted cream puffs like Nancy Pelosi and  simply make it against the law to engage in “workplace violence” on Government property?

Mission Accomplished!  Till the next slaughter!

Miraculous Tune-up of Obamacare Numbers Machine!

By John W. Lillpop



Over the past several months, the Obama administration has consistently thwarted media and public attempts to secure accurate and reliable data about the success, or (God forbid) failure, of Obamacare.

Questions such as these have been posed:

How many have actually “signed up” and what does signup mean?

How many enrollees have actually paid for coverage?

How many young and healthy adults have bought into Obamacare, as contrasted with the number of older, less healthy enrollees?

How many innocent Americans were dropped from existing coverage solely because of Obamacare?

How many “signups” were previously insured?

Inquiries such as the above have been treated with utter contempt by the Obama palace guard, led by Kathleen Sebelius, of the HHS Mafia contingent.

Its as though such questions are impertinent intrusions into the sacred cow of Executive Privilege, as defined by The One and fiercely protected by those whom subscribe to the idiotic notion that He is blessed with  infallibility, not unlike that often attributed to the Pope.

Thus, such inquires have been ignored or stonewalled by HHS which has consistently declared that the data are simply not available.

No cover up or censorship, mind you, its just that we simply have not had sufficient time to respond.

The systemic and enduring failure of the Administration to account for Obamacare experienced a dramatic reversal this week, just in time for April Fools Day.

Indeed, despite the fact that the Healthcare.com web site was disabled twice during the final hours before the enrollment deadline, Barack Obama and Joe Biden somehow managed to extract enough information from the HHS Mafia web site to justify a gaudy victory lap in which the Obama-Biden team hailed the miraculous recovery of 21st century technology and the ensuing attainment of 7.1 million enrollees.

Mind you, the enrollment process was still in process and yet the President and Vice President were lustily engaged in “High Five” self-congratulations for the alleged victory of Marxist health care over the will and spirit of we the people!

Next to the “If you like your health care plan and doctor” lies, the Obama-Biden celebration of phony numbers and outright fraud prove beyond question that American Exceptionalism is dead and buried!
