Fifty Years Down The Drain?

131211-Free Gas

This morning I read a supposed true story about the ACA clause that enables the White House to set up gas stations to dispense free gas to those too poor to get to a doctor because they had no gas. This afternoon, I fact checked the article and it is false. It didn’t keep me from drawing a cartoon to depict my opinion about  the matter.

All day I kept asking myself, why would our beloved president want to give free gas to poor people? If they are poor would they even own a car? Would they take an empty milk jug to get gas and then come home to look for someone who would take them to a doctor for a free gallon? None of it made sense. Because of how I feel about Obama and his administration, I bought the lie hook, line, and sinker. He has done stupid things before, why not this? It falls into the free phone category, i.e. poor people need a phone  to call 911. I believe he would deliberately destroy fifty years of Civil Rights progress just to start another redistribution scheme.

Anyway, SNOPES declares this story false, but I am not buying that it isn’t inside the thousands of pages of the Un-Affordable Care Act we so dearly refer to as Obama Care. The joke is on me.

Is Obama’s Competency Questionable Or Phenomenal?

Today I read an article titled “Obama’s Competence in Question” by Richard Cohen of Real Clear Politics. Cohen very articulately and logically chronicles the actions of Obama on both foreign and national policies. The author finally questions Obama’s competence or the lack of it.

I find the article amusing. Author Cohen missed the boat on what the president’s job description contains. He assumes a president should handle affairs of state as all previous presidents have done. What he misses is Obama”s agenda differs from past presidents. When your goal is the complete transformation of the greatest country on earth you must think outside the conventional box. Obama’s viewpoint comes from his book “Dreams From My Father.” Many have read this book, but few have understood it.

Obama espouses the same ideology his father did, i.e. the redistribution. His father also abhorred colonialism. Obama Senior grew up in the British colony of Kenya. Barack’s father, and grandfather hated the occupiers and transferred that hatred to baby Barack. Obama Junior blames the ills of the world on colonialism, and blames the United States for exerting its influence over lessor nations, most specifically the Mid-Eastern oil producers, land theft from American Indians, and a land grabbing war with Mexico

The father worked for the Kenyan government as a presidential advisor. He wanted to implement the grandiose idea of income redistribution. The boys in Kenyan high places rejected the idea and promptly demoted him. Obama’s father died a hopeless drunk after losing his great opportunity to change the world, or at least Kenya.

What does this historical drivel have to do with Obama’s competence? His competence to implement an agenda to bring down the United States is genius. He has accomplished two back-breaking policies and is working on the third. First, is his effort to implement the Cloward-Piven strategy to overload the welfare system. Don’t believe me, how about spending over a trillion dollars per year on welfare?

 The second step is taking over the health care industry. Progressives have known all along that the key to becoming socialist is to begin by owning health care. Bill Clinton repeatedly has promoted the idea of passing anything that resembles a health care law and then fixing it, aka making it into a single payer system. If Big Brother owns your health care he owns you. 

The third step on Obama’s agenda is an open border with Mexico. This move along with total disregard for immigration laws will serve to further overload the system and bankrupt the country. Once the country is bankrupt, and chaos prevails, Commander-in-Chief Obama will declare martial law and take over as a dictator. Hello communism!

In conclusion I disagree with Richard Cohan. Obama’s competency as a regular president is not questionable, it is horrible. His competence as one who transforms the US into a third world country is phenomenal.

To My Kids Who Want To Put Me Away

Well Kids, here is another article from your crazy old man who you believe belongs in a home for thinking and blogging the way he does. Regardless of what you say or think of me, I will not sit still and watch a carpet-bagger wise guy take our great country away from you. For me it doesn’t make much difference any more. Your mom is gone, and I am nearing the end of my time with you. I won’t lose much, but you will become a slave to the government. If you go on welfare which I don’t think any of you will ever do, you will stay in the workforce. You will be one of the few who work for the élite bastards in charge, and all those who feed from their trough. You won’t call it slavery, but you will call it taxery.
Your Mom and I hoped we raised you to want a life that is better than what we gave you. I see you struggling to make ends meet, and how hard you work to live an independent life. I commend you for that, I am proud of that. I also know that you can read, so I ask that you read this essay by another crack-pot like your old man. Wayne Allen Root has written an excellent essay explaining what is really going on. I wrote about the Cloward-Piven strategy back in 2009 shortly after Obama took charge. Back then you all thought I was a racist old man, but I hope by now you are learning that maybe I was just a wee bit right.
ATT00002
by Wayne Allyn Root
Barack Hussein Obama is no fool. He is not incompetent. On the contrary, he is brilliant. He knows exactly what he’s doing. He is purposely overwhelming the U.S. economy to create systemic failure, economic crisis and social chaos thereby destroying capitalism and our country from within. Barack Hussein Obama was my college classmate (Columbia University, class of ’83).
He is a devout Muslim; do not be fooled. Look at his czars… Anti-business anti-American. As Glenn Beck correctly predicted from day one, Barack Hussein Obama is following the plan of Cloward & Piven, two professors at Columbia University.  They outlined a plan to socialize America by overwhelming the system with government spending and entitlement demands.
Add up the clues below. Taken individually, they’re alarming. Taken as a whole, it is a brilliant, Machiavellian game plan to turn the United States into a Socialist/Marxist state with a permanent majority that desperately needs government for survival.  And can be counted on to always vote for even bigger government. Why not? They have no responsibility to pay for it.
Universal Health Care:
The Health Care bill has very little to do with healthcare. It has everything to do with unionizing millions of hospital and healthcare workers as well as adding 15,000 to 20,000 new IRS agents (who will join government employee unions). Obama doesn’t care that giving free healthcare to 30 million Americans will add trillions to the national debt. What he does care about is that it cements the dependence of those 30 million voters to Democrats and big government. Who but a socialist revolutionary would pass this reckless spending bill in the middle of a depression?
Cap and Trade:
Like healthcare legislation having nothing to do with healthcare, Cap and Trade has nothing to do with global warming. It has everything to do with redistribution of income, government control of the economy, and a criminal payoff to Obama’s biggest contributors. Those powerful and wealthy unions and contributors (like GE, which owns NBC, MSNBC and CNBC) can then be counted on to support everything Obama wants. They will kick-back hundreds of millions of dollars in contributions to Obama and the Democratic Party to keep them in power. The bonus is that all the new taxes on Americans with bigger cars, bigger homes and businesses helps Obama spread the wealth around.
                                                           Making Puerto Rico a state:
Who’s asking for a 51st state? Who’s asking for millions of new welfare recipients and government entitlement addicts in the middle of a depression? Certainly not American taxpayers! But this has been Barack Hussein Obama’s plan all along. His goal is to add two new Democrat senators, five Democrat congressmen and a million loyal Democratic voters who are dependent on big government.
(This will tip the balance of those living off the government to more than those who must pay for it; and we’re done for.)
Legalize 12 million illegal Mexican immigrants:
Just giving these 12 million potential new citizens free healthcare alone could overwhelm the system and bankrupt America. But it adds 12 million reliable new Democrat voters who can be counted on to support big government. Add another few trillion dollars in welfare, aid to dependent children, food stamps, free medical, education, tax credits for the poor, and eventually Social Security. (see note above re: Puerto Rico)
Stimulus and bailouts
Where did all that money go? It went to Democrat contributors, organizations (ACORN), and unions — including billions of dollars to save or create jobs of government employees across the country. It went to save GM and Chrysler so that their employees could keep paying union dues. It went to AIG so that Goldman Sachs could be bailed out (after giving Obama almost $1 million in contributions). A staggering $125 billion went to teachers (thereby protecting their union dues).
All those public employees will vote loyally Democrat to protect their bloated salaries and pensions that are bankrupting America. The country goes broke, future generations face a bleak future, but Obama, the Democrat Party, government, and the unions grow more powerful.
The ends justify the means. Raise taxes on small business owners, high-income earners, and job creators. Put the entire burden on only the top 20 percent of taxpayers, redistribute the income, punish success, and reward those who did nothing to deserve it (except vote for Obama).
Reagan wanted to dramatically cut taxes in order to starve the government. Barack Obama wants to dramatically raise taxes to starve his political opposition. With the acts outlined above, Barack Hussein Obama and his regime have created a vast and rapidly expanding constituency of voters dependent on big government; a vast privileged class of public employees who work for big government; and a government dedicated to destroying capitalism and installing themselves as socialist rulers by overwhelming the system.
Add it up and you’ve got the perfect Marxist scheme all devised by my Columbia University college classmate Barack Hussein Obama using the Cloward-Piven Strategy.
Last point: think about what this designed rule of the rabble will do to anyone successful and everyone receiving this is. What will your lives be like under Communism? The time to fight this abomination is now.

 

Who In The Hell?

A day doesn’t go by without Grandma Peggy asking me “who in the hell in their right mind would vote for Obama?” She has a problem believing the intelligent  people in America are intoxicated with the elixir of socialism. I often argue that the people who voted for him are not necessarily very intelligent at all. In fact, most are downright stupid.

A good friend, now retired from the Air Force as a Colonel, sent the evidence I needed to make my point to Peg. This cutout from a newspaper is a little hard to read, but trust me it is worth reading, you will laugh your ass off. Remember these people walk among us.

I blame the educational system for this stupidity. We are born smarter than this proud Democrat.

Everytime a Bell Rings

This afternoon, I came home from a beautiful walk around Frankfort and went to check my e-mails. My beautiful day exploded. I received news that the Leader I wrote about a few days ago has died.

I haven’t seen him since I retired eleven years ago, but I wrote to him yearly and filled him in on what I was doing. He answered me once, and I have kept the letter as a treasure. Jack E. Caveney built a company from scratch, and no, Obama didn’t help him do it. Jack’s company was his life. He owned it til his death, he remained active as an inventor, and maintained a strong hand in the operation.

His death has overwhelmed me with sadness, and I will miss him.

I’ve asked my deceased wife Barb to welcome him into the choir of angels and to show him around heaven. She no doubt met him at the gates with Saint Peter.
