Vote

Today is the day America, we need to take back our country, return to our values, correct the wrongs that have plagued the country, the economy, and the daily lives of our citizens for the past 4 years.  2 years ago you turned out en masse to take back the House of Representatives, today, we need that turnout, and then some to defeat the hate-ridden campaign of the worst President in US History.  We need a correction, back to our founding.  Virtue should drive the nation, not the government or bureaucrats.  We must see what things we lack and go from there and not accept failure.  Be knowledgeable, be thoughtful, be prayerful, BE AMERICAN.  Today should be a great day for our country, make sure it is by casting your vote.  Be a leader, be the person who makes this the best day, the day we all remember as the day America was won back from those who demand things, and doesn't work for them, from those who claim rights to things they never possessed, to those who scream out change and yet are complacent with doing the same thing that has failed time and again in the past.  Let us win today for America, go vote!

Why I Love this Veep Pick!

Why I Love this Veep Pick!
First off, I will be the first to admit that I was heavily in favor of @RickSantorum for President and supported his campaign.  I will also admit that after it was down to just Romney I wasn't that thrilled with the overall outlook of the 2012 election.  With that out of the way, I must say that this was the BEST VEEP pick possible!

Paul Ryan respected by many, and few can match his intellectual problem-solving prowess.  This man is a great pick and I didn't think the Romney camp had it in them to pick him but this is great, and here is why...

1) The biggest national issue of the day is Obamacare - HHS Mandate - increase of taxes due to Obamacare.  Paul Ryan has fought this tooth and nail and has offered many varied solutions to these problems.  Furthermore, as a practicing Catholic Paul Ryan has a unique insight on the HHS mandate and the 1st Amendment rights that the mandate hopes to strip away.  What a great pick!

2) Equally important, but not with as much prominence right now because of Obamacare, is the  budget crisis.  All over Europe countries are going under, downgrading their credit scores, and engaging in Socialistic government controlled lives.  Paul Ryan has worked to eliminate government spending, and therefore government intrusion and intervention.  YES!

3) Finally, with the economic crisis that we are currently in pushing forward with 8.3% unemployment, we need tax cuts to bolster the economy.  One of the few people, if not the only person, who could manage to propose a tax cut and still balance the books of the overdue government bank account, is Paul Ryan.  Government spending will be cut along with your taxes!  How does that sound!  To me wonderful.

4) I'll put it plainly, for those of you who follow Catholicvote, you already know, but 1st Catholic Pro-life Republican on the ticket since Roe v. Wade.  Wowza!

Romney Ryan 2012!

Government Intrusion

Over the past few months I have noticed an alarming trend of government intrusion into our lives.  With the vast expansion of the Department of Health and Human Services and the passage of Obamacare, and the completely moronic upholding of Obamacare by the Supreme Court, with all of these factors have come government program intrusion.  The Obama administration has begun its takeover full force, now melting the division of our lives, free from government to becoming dependent upon that which is supposed to protect us, our liberties, and our prosperity. 

For at least the past month I have seen on TV and heard many radio advertisements bursting through this barrier between a free society and that of a socialistic government dependent society.  Why is it that one of the most frequent things you hear on the radio and see on TV is a government ad?  This is not communist China where we need government permission to use the restroom and I, for one, am fed up of this government intrusion. 

Talk a walk through the economically dependent streets of and European Socialist city, and you will see much of the same that in going on here in our media.  Government help for this that or the other thing, and in a 'oh we are so nice to help you poor little soul' tone.  The most prominent intrusion has come from the Obamacare platform, encouraging individuals to use the many 'benefits' of the new health care legislation, as they call it.  Those 'free' benefits that apparently we were too stupid to use before, the HHS department has decided to encourage us to use our free mammogram and colon screenings, because we all were just ignoring them and dying en mass.

Many individuals will not even notice this government intrusion into our daily lives but I for one will, and I am appalled.  We need to stop this HHS intrusion, and Obamacare at any cost or we will become the poverty stricken socialist society that these scary signs allude to in current socialist states.  Elect conservative members of government, support their cause, campaign, and fight for your freedom, for it may not last much longer...   

Obamacare Made Stronger

Here we go again, parsing words and mixing messages to try and convince groups that he is not doing what he actually is doing. So here's the skinny. In the article I have linked it says that Obama's compromise is doing the following:

"Speaking to reporters at the White House Friday, Obama offered a compromise that would allow women to obtain free contraception but would require them to obtain it directly from their insurance companies if their employers object to birth control because of religious beliefs."

Now what is the problem you say, well first and foremost the contraceptives are STILL being given out like complimentary water cups at McDonalds. He says the Catholic companies do not have to give out contraceptives anymore but the insurance companies do, as if nuns are at the church doorstep giving them away. The problem is, mr. president, that the Catholic companies PAY for the insurance, and therefore are paying for the contraceptives. This is not a compromise but an increase in federal mandates! The Obama administration has now required everyone to obtain 'free' contraceptives. Before, I assume, we would pay for them. Now they are free, oh great! What a great gift you have given us. More liberty swiped from the conscience of millions of US citizens, religious freedom - gone, personal freedom - gone, we have to buy insurance, we have to have that pay for contraceptives. What options do we have as citizens? Please give me one option, anything? There is none, there are no exemptions. If you are a Catholic who is a business owner for a non-catholic business, like McDonalds then you still are paying for insurance that covers that in its policy.

To even further this point, I have to say, that back when Obamacare was passed, Obama claimed over and over again that he was going to reduce the cost of healthcare and that he was going to make sure healthcare was better. Now everyone must be insured, increasing the pool, but also increasing the cost of each company to carry preexisting conditions, and now increasing what things must be in these healthcare plans. Contraceptives MUST be free so therefore the cost gets passed to the consumer. We all now pay for contraceptives, not just the company paying for us, but every citizen pays for contraceptives.

When will it all end? When will this madness end and when will freedom and free markets reign again in America. We need to rally, and rally behind the one true conservative left in the race!

Vote for Rick Santorum, and help fight and reverse the direction of the current administration.

Bachmann: Iowa Chaos

So the new presidential election cycle is upon us for the 2012 general election. As the candidates debate, campaign, and generally fight it out, it has become clear to myself, as well as I hope other conservatives, there is but one solid candidate.

Michele Bachmann has withstood the Iowa chaos without a scathing story or inconsistent message, and is the only conservative who has had a clear message of conservatism. Throughout the debates many things have come out, from Mitt Romney's many issues with stateism and big handed government initiatives (Romneycare), Ron Paul's destruction of American military and foreign standing (what would be a continuing of the Obama apologies tour), particularly his 9/11 stance, Newt Gingrich's flip flopping and global warming pushes (with Nancy Pelosi), who else is there to lead the Republican's to victory against Obama in November? Bachmann has consistently improved over each debate, particularly the last debate which she won, in my humble opinion. Her dedication to a solid fight to ending Obamacare, to slashing the budget and lowering the debt, to ending government interaction in our everyday lives. This is the message we need to win in November! Its clear Obama's jobs record will be an easy thing to pin on him, however, the record of the candidates over the past 4 years in congress would be easily debated by Bachmann who has not supported liberal government takeovers. The Obama drones will also claim the republicans are responsible for part of the debt but Michele has debated all those budget increases, particularly tarp. There is but one person who has truly led a conservative-oriented life both in the public and private sector and that is Michele Bachmann.

Vote for Michele Iowa, and the rest of the nation!

Healthcare or Hellcare?

It has become clear to most of America that socialized medicine is the worst option possible and the current system is much, much better than what the Dems have planned. Some Dems have sunken so low to call it a "moral obligation" to pass socialized medicine, this is not the case. In the moral grounds of health care, hospitals have to provide emergency care to any patient, regardless of whether or not they have insurance. So where does morality come in? Well in just the opposite way then what they claim. First, the immorality of the bill is that it will provide for coverage on abortions, simply because it does not address abortions means it does not outlaw them. So how does that moral standing feel now? Secondly, death panels are in existence and so a lovely set of people, who do not know your, your circumstances, religion, family, or anything about you other than your current medically assumed state will decide when you die, how comforting. So there are not "dignified" deaths, as they call them, because the death is predetermined and is made "easier" by doping up the patient. I guess doping now is dignified? Since when is this the case? This is simply a legalized Woodstock 60s death. How dignified and comforting, how wonderful.

In many cases you've heard, patients who even could have been saved and had a more prolonged life, socialized medicine, even in our own USA in Oregon, have been denied essential care for dope. The "big bad pharmaceutical company came to the rescue in one woman's case and gave her the medicine, socialized care wouldn't provide, for free. This is the absurdity of socialized care. So it looks like the "elected elite" also known as the aristocracy in the feudal system are trying to create just that, a feudal system of care and of government. Ask all the congressmen who are planning on voting for this bill whether or not they will take the care or will they purchase their own care, and 99% of them, if they're not lying, will buy their own. So the crowning elite will have their own bene's while you and I will be bought out by cheaper, less inclusive care that tells you when you get to die, not when you are going to die.

Lastly, people mention Japan as a "viable" option for care. There are many problems with this option but I will briefly describe a few of them. First, Japan is the exception not the rule for care and in the majority of cases it doesn't work. Secondly, inflation in cost of living in Japan is astronomical. Most of their living is done in small 500 sq ft. apartments, with barely enough room for a standing shower. Is this freedom? Is this liberty? Is this prosperity? Moreover, Japan has the highest corporate tax rates. Low production of new businesses in Japan, coupled with a very strict governmental law on jobs and type of jobs you can have does not = the freedom we so enjoy in America. Lastly, the public school teachers earn on average 1600 a month if it's their first year, whereas, in the US it varies but in this area of the world, teachers make closer to 2000 a month or more in this area.

P.S. I know this is a post on health care but I must say that the President addressing the kids and attaching lesson plans to "adore" the president the 1st day of school is ludicrous and for anyone who has actually been in the classroom before, the 1st day is not the day to be teaching a random socialist lesson, on a socialist speech given by the nations top sponsor of socialism.

Too Little Too Late?

As the Cap and Tax bill squeaked through the house by a small 8 vote majority 211-219, it now sits at the feet of the senators to pass. As shameful as the 3am addition of 300 pages of amendments by Democrats to the bill, is the suppression of a report by the EPA that discredits the science behind the claims that carbon emissions lead to a warmer planet. This study even has found that there are more carbon emissions right now, and yet the planet has stayed the same temperature or gotten cooler! Gotten cooler? Does that mean we'll go back to the global cooling phenomenon, possibly. The Dumbocrats have too much vested interest in keeping their supporters' pockets filled with federal tax dollars to do otherwise, to do the right thing.

Now if across the globe scientists are proving this silly theory wrong, and the Federal Government agency the EPA is suppressing this information for its own personal agenda, what does that say about the bias and "fairness" of that agency? This is a totally absurd agency, that's what it tells you! Furthermore, they should be taken apart! There is no reason we should have a government agency that has the primary function of adding tax increases to the American people via their "reports". All of their previous reports should now be called into question and should be reviewed for accuracy and suppression of material contrary to the reports findings. The Republican leadership needs to get into shape and do something collective, and reviewing these past reports would be a great first step in winning back America. Thanks to Senator Inhofe, something of a crusade is happening about this report. The timing could not be more interesting. Is it too late? Once it got past the house, is it too late for the overwhelming majority of the Senate to stop this runaway train? Lets hope not! Lets hope that all this hard work was not in vein and lets hope that Mr. Carlin's report, brings further light to corruption and greed, present in the EPA and Obama administration. As Mark Levin would say in his book, the enviro-statists are out to take away your Liberty! Stand up and do something about, or suffer the consequences of your silence!
