The Twisted Focus of The Racist Hunters
Posted by: | CommentsMr. Zack Burgess of the Philadelphia Tribune is horrified that the world media did not go on a celebration frenzy when a Nigerian named Adebayo Ogunlesi recently purchased London’s Gatwick Airport for 1.455 billion pounds. Mr. Burgess is in the process of doing a story on this purchase and recently put out a query on the Internet for people to interview. He wants to interview historians and psychiatrists and educators. It is Mr. Burgess’ twisted focus that is so typical of the American Liberal Media. Mr. Burgess’ Internet solicitation made the following observation:
“We often are quick to hear and see images on television of African Americans in disparaging situations like jail, poverty, prostitution, etc. But we hardly hear about the good of our African American tycoons, lawyers, doctors, etc. Now, the question is, why did the mainstream media keep this so very, very quiet? I was even more surprised that not even the BBC covered this story, or any of the other major news networks including CNN!”
Where is Mr. Burgess going with this little inquiry? Well, he gets to the point by saying:
“I know this is rather controversial, but it’s a story that needs to be tackled. Furthermore, is this the reason the president is under such fire…because we’re not used to seeing an African American with such power outside of entertainment. How do we change such a problem that has been talked about in the African American community for years, but hasn’t been talked about enough publicly?”
Now we get it! Barack Obama is under fire because he is black – not because he is a Marxist/Socialist/ left wing radical who is systematically taking America apart. For Mr. Burgess and the political left they can’t accept that Americans might be down on Mr. Obama for what he has done and is doing. It has to be about race for them.
Mr. Burgess, you and your media friends are living under the greatest denial cloud that has ever been floated.
Let Me Ask You a Question…
Posted by: | CommentsLet’s say you have $500 that you want to loan to someone at a reasonable rate of interest. Let’s say you have narrowed your loan candidates down to two possibilities. The first possibility is to loan the money to a member of your own family. You realize the interest rate might be a little lower but you trust your family member to honor the loan and repay it.
Your second possibility is to loan the money to a rich person across town who seems to have more money than they need and they just choose to borrow money to maintain a certain standard of living. Your realize the rich person on the other side of town is a spendthrift, but they have great references and you have a lot of faith in their ability to survive difficulty and keep on trucking.
Then, on the brink of pulling the trigger of making the loan to the rich guy you learn some facts about the behavior of the the person:
1. The rich person has recently embarked on an incredible spending spree and has done it on borrowed money. As a matter of fact you learn that almost 50% of every dollar they spend is borrowed from other people, like you!
2. The rich person has been totally ignoring warnings from its lenders that the borrowed money they are spending is toxic and deadly to their long term survival. Yet, the person continues to spend in an irresponsible rush to disaster.
Armed with these new facts you decide that you don’t want to loan your $500 to the irresponsible rich person and elect to loan your money instead to your family member, who is close to home and behaves more responsibly than the rich lunatic across town.
About a year later you learn that the rich person has exhausted its resources to obtain loans and is going bankrupt. All the people who had loaned money to the rich person in previous years have evaporated.
What’s the meaning of this?
1. The United States of America is the rich person across town behaving like a lunatic.
2. You represent the foreign investors who are financing the spending spree of the lunatic and have little or no hope of being repaid the $12,000,000,000,000 of debt accumulated by the lunatic.
Here’s the question: What happens when the lunatic can no longer borrow money to to pay its bills?
Nobody seems to want to know the answer to that question and that is our national crisis.
Go Christie Go!

I posted the video link below of New Jersey Governor Christi absolutely demolishing a liberal reporter at a news conference. The reporter worked for a NJ paper called the Star Ledger. Evidently, that paper has alleged a copyright claim on the video and YouTube has pulled it! The collusion between YouTube and the paper on this issue is probably another discussion to have, but the fact that the video was pulled proves how effective conservatives can be when they just throw political correctness out the window and tell the truth. Fortunately, someone got the video up at another site and the link below still has it.

America needs about 500 of these guys in Congress and in every state house in all 50 states.

Obamacare: The Social Security Fix
Posted by: | CommentsI’m writing this to go on record concerning this subject. In a few years when what I am going to predict is beginning to happen, I can point to this post and say: “I told you so!” That is, if I’m still alive. If Obamacare becomes law it will be the method by which the bankrupt social security system will be fixed. How is this you ask?
The impending doom for Social Security is found in the huge numbers of baby boomers who will go on Social Security/Medicare over the next 5 to 25 years. Because the abortion-on-demand movement has murdered over 50,000,000 babies since 1973, we are missing 1.5 generations of Americans who should be working and paying taxes, particularly FICA employment taxes. When the boomers retire there will not be enough people paying FICA taxes to support their Social Security payments. Big problem.
There are only two solutions to fix this potential disaster. The first is to drastically raise FICA taxes on the working population. The second is to reduce the number of people drawing Social Security checks. I predict that the people paying the FICA taxes will prefer the second method. I also believe Obamacare will provide the means to accomplish the reduction in the number of people receiving social security. How? It’s very simple: Administrative Volutary Euthenasia!
When Obamacare is in effect, the Government is going to gradually decide who deserves certain kinds of care. A 70 year old person suffering cancer will be provided hospice care, rather than expensive Chemotherapy. As the aged get sick, they will be thinned out by being denied the expensive care and treatment that might help them live a few more years. Instead they will be offered Administrative Voluntary Euthenasia. This will be Dr. Kervorkian on steroids, from coast to coast!
I am 67 as of this post. I fully expect the day to come when I am going to get sick with something and the government is going to disapprove the treatment I need based on my age and the expense of the treatment. Obamacare will prohibit me from buying it out of my own pocket and the government will help me exit this world as painlessly as possible. When you multiply this scenario millions of times it won’t be long until the Social Security recipients are drastically reduced. The result will be a ‘fix’ for Social Security.
Call me a conspiracy nut if you like, but I believe this is inevitable if Obama and the Democrats have their way.
The Difference Between Liberals and Conservatives
Posted by: | CommentsDear Jim Bob,
When I ask people about the difference between liberals and conservatives I get a lot of different answers. What’s the best way to understand this Jim Bob?
Interested in Iowa
Dear Interested,
I think the best way to understand the difference between liberals and conservatives is to take a look at their behavior. After all, behavior is the result of what we think and what we think is driven by what we believe. So, if you can simply describe what liberals do and what conservatives do it might help you understand what separates them. Here is what I’ve observed over the years.
WHAT LIBERALS DO: Liberals usually create problems where they don’t really exist. They are always trying to fix stuff that isn’t really broken. Even if something is slightly broken, their approach is to throw the whole thing out and start over with something that always involves the government doing it. It gets even more complicated when you understand that liberals will decide something SHOULD be broken even if it isn’t and try to fix that too. The Global Warming Hoax is like that. Finally, liberals rarely, if ever, trust fixing things to individuals, because they want the government to do it through taxes and more regulation. Why liberals do this is another subject.
Now, it’s important to understand that for something to be broken in the mind of a liberal, all that needs to exist is an opinion that its broken. Liberals are rarely restrained by actual facts. What they do is assemble a lot of anecdotal information and portray it as a dominant trend. They also twist facts to fit the agenda they have created to fix whatever they believe is broken. Our current health care controversy is a perfect example of how liberals operate. American health care has some problems and they are very specific problems. The liberal approach is to completely replace the entire system with a government controlled environment.
WHAT CONSERVATIVES DO: Conservatives do not try to fix things that are not broken. When something is actually broken or looks like it might become broken, a true conservative first examines the extent of the problem based on the actual reality and facts of the situation. Then, a conservative will create solutions that deal with the actual problem. Conservatives will always try to preserve the best parts of whatever they are trying to fix. Conservatives strive for improvement, not destruction. A conservative will never throw the baby out with the bath water.
So, that is basic difference between liberals and conservatives, as I see it. Hope that helps.
