The Demo-gogues
Obama gives voters a lectureWith friends like these... "People need to shake off this lethargy. People need to buck up. ... If people now want to take their ball and go home, that tells me folks weren't serious in the first place. ... It is inexcusable for any Democrat or progressive right now to stand on the sidelines in this midterm election. ... The idea that we've got a lack of enthusiasm in the Democratic base, that people are sitting on their hands complaining, is just irresponsible." --Barack Obama hammering his own base in an interview with Rolling Stone
"[I want to] remind our base constituency to stop whining and get out there and look at the alternatives. This president has done an incredible job. He's kept his promises." --Joe Biden on the same talking points
"And so those who don't get -- didn't get everything they wanted, it's time to just buck up here, understand that we can make things better, continue to move forward and -- but not yield the playing field to those folks who are against everything that we stand for in terms of the initiatives we put forward." --Joe Biden
"We have an electorate that doesn't always pay that much attention to what's going on so people are influenced by a simple slogan rather than the facts or the truth or what's happening." --Sen. John Kerry (D-MA), another snotty elitist lecturing voters
The GOP's best friend: "[I]f we allow this to be a referendum on whether people are happy where they are now, we'll lose." --Joe Biden
But on the other hand: "I guarantee you we're going to have a majority in the House and a majority in the Senate. I absolutely believe that." --Biden
Patronizing: "There are strains in the Tea Party that are troubled by what they saw as a series of instances in which the middle-class and working-class people have been abused or hurt by special interests and Washington, but their anger is misdirected." --Barack Obama
"[Fox News has] a point of view that I disagree with. It's a point of view that I think is ultimately destructive for the long-term growth of a country that has a vibrant middle class and is competitive in the world." --Obama in the Rolling Stone interview
On fiscal responsibility: "What I'm seeing out of the Republican leadership over the last several years has been a set of policies that are just irresponsible, and we saw in their Pledge to America a similar set of irresponsible policies. ... [Although GOP leaders] say they want to balance the budget, they propose $4 trillion worth of tax cuts and $16 billion in spending cuts, and then they say we're going to somehow magically balance the budget. That's not a serious approach." --Barack Obama, who must consider Republicans amateurs when it comes to blowing money

The Difference Between Bush 2 and Obama
Just to compare!! This is how the soldiers feel. How Marines welcome a President. It seems the US Marines know something that many of the civilian population do not ...
Take 2 minutes to watch this comparison between George Bush's visit to the Marines vs Obama's recent trip. It is incredible.
YouTube. Obama's people are working hard to get it removed.

Leaving Out God
Leaving Out God
By Ken Blackwell (Archive) · Wednesday, September 22, 2010
It was certainly reassuring to see the president and first lady coming out of St. John's Episcopal Church last Sunday. With all the confusion about the president's religion, we can be sure that the very liberal historic parish will provide a warm welcome to the first family. And they're unlikely to hear anything as unsettling as "God d____ America" coming from St. John's elegantly carved pulpit.
Folk wisdom tells us there are no atheists in foxholes. President Obama has surely been feeling like a combat soldier in recent weeks. With all the heavy criticisms raining down on him like incoming mortar shells, and with his own team members seeming to run away from him on the political battlefield, the president needs all the prayers he can get. Cynics might say that this is another battlefield conversion, that Obama never felt the need for such fellowship when he was above 70 percent approval in the polls. In those halcyon days, Newsweek editor Evan Thomas was hailing Obama as "a sort of God." No more.
But just when you thought it was safe for the president to slip back into the pew, he started a whole new round of speculation about what he really believes. While addressing the Congressional Hispanic Caucus last week, Obama began to recite key passages of the Declaration of Independence and slipped up. Or did he?
He enumerated the "certain inalienable rights" part beautifully. He even listed the right to life. (Hmmm. How does that comport with an Obamacare law that if unrepealed would subsidize abortion and thus deny the right to life to millions yet unborn? Well, Barack Obama is hardly the only liberal who manages to declare such pesky questions "above my pay grade.") The trouble came when Obama omitted who endowed the people with these inalienable rights, "their Creator."
The White House is trying to tamp down any controversy: The president was merely paraphrasing. "Don't try to read anything into this" is the administration line.
But it does matter. The Weekly Standard's Jeffrey Anderson certainly thinks so:
"Only two plausible explanations spring to mind. One is that President Obama isn't very familiar with the most famous passage in the document that founded this nation; that even when plainly reading from a teleprompter, he wasn't able to quote it correctly. The other is that President Obama doesn't subscribe to the Declaration's rather central claim that our rights come from our 'Creator' (also referred to in the Declaration as 'Nature's God' and 'the Supreme Judge of the World').
"Only the president likely knows for certain which of these two explanations is true, or whether perhaps there is another. His nearly 4-second pause before he omits reference to our Creator, however, is peculiar. He stares at the teleprompter, purses his lips, blinks several times — as if confused, disturbed, and/or in the process of making a decision — and then proceeds to use his alternate wording [see the clip here starting at the 22:30 mark]."
Anderson had earlier reported on the present administration's apparent discomfort with the Declaration of Independence. In its groveling and apologetic report to the UN Human Rights Council—a body graced by such respecters of the rights of humans as China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, and Cuba—the Obama administration managed to omit any reference to the world's greatest document on human rights: our own Declaration.
President Obama is not the only liberal to have such problems acknowledging the Creator. Take for example a nice new publication from the American Constitution Society for Law and Policy (ACS)—a Federalist Society for liberals that might be viewed as an incubator for the Obama Justice Department or even for Obama nominees to the federal courts.
Princeton Professor Robby George noted in First Things that he recently picked up a handy little pamphlet published by ACS with the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and—most welcome—Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. But when he carefully scanned Lincoln's immortal words as delivered on that hallowed ground, Professor George noted they had left out two: "under God."
How bold! Surely the liberals at ACS know that Lincoln's words are carved into stone at the memorial that bears his name. Surely some of them have been to the National Cemetery at Gettysburg and seen the speech text, also engraved in stone.
We are left to conclude that for the liberal left, our rights do not come from God. They come, instead, from government pronouncements, from UN documents, or from the courts. This is a most disturbing conclusion. And it goes to the heart of who we are as a people.

When will we will as Christians stand up, not only for ourselves, but for our country?? When will YOU act? Will you wait until you're told which Church to go to?? Will you wait until you cannot go to Church at all? Will you wait until they ban Bibles?? The time to act is NOW!

September 11, 2010
It has been 9 years since we were viciously attacked in NYC, the Pentagon and a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
It seems that the further away we get from the actual day, the more people are "forgetting" or using it as a day to cook-out or whatever. It is such a shame. And Mr. O's administration wants it to be a day of volunteerism?? Huh? He doesn't even acknowledge what today is all about. The families remember; those who worked at Ground Zero remember, it goes on and on.
So, I say shame on those who have forgotten what this day is all about. Shame on you for forgetting all the people who died that day; for forgetting those who helped save people that day; and those who worked at ground zero, whom are now getting sick from all the junk they had to breath in working there.
Let us remember all of those who died that day. Remember those workers who worked at Ground Zero and are now becoming ill. Remember the families of both sets of those named.
I personally want to say 'Thank You' and God Bless to those who were on Flight 93 and their families. That plane flew over my house twice and could have come down at anytime during that period. However, those passengers decided to do something and brought that plane down in a field in Pennsylvania where no one else was killed. Thank you all so very much and God be with each and every one of you and your families.

A Sad Goodbye
Today, we bid a sad farewell to Mr. George Steinbrenner, owner of the New York Yankees. He died of a massive heart attack at his home in Tampa, Florida, according to news reports.
Ironically, he got his start in football. Being apart of coaching teams at Ohio State, Northwestern and Purdue, if I am not mistaken. He made his fortune in shipbuilding and bought the Yankees in 1973.
Of course, all of us Yankee fans remember his love/hate relationship with Billy Martin (we still miss you, Billy), whom he hired and fired I believe 5 times! It almost got to be comical.
Tonight is the Major League Baseball Allstar game, and I am sure they will do something to honor him, as will the Yankees win the return to home play after the break.
We will miss you, Boss. And we always loved you.
Love,
This Yankee fan.
