Harry Truman Great Man
THIS IS THE WAY IT SHOULD BE.........
Harry Truman: Harry Truman was a different kind of President. He probably made as many, or more important decisions regarding our nation's history as any of the other 32 Presidents preceding him. However, a measure of his greatness may rest on what he did after he left the White House.
The only asset he had when he died was the house he lived in, which was in Independence Missouri . His wife had inherited the house from her mother and father and other than their years in the White House, they lived their entire lives there.
When he retired from office in 1952, his income was a U.S. Army pension reported to have been $13,507.72 a year. Congress, noting that he was paying for his stamps and personally licking them, granted him an 'allowance' and, later, a retroactive pension of $25,000 per year..
After President Eisenhower was inaugurated, Harry and Bess drove home to Missouri by themselves. There was no Secret Service following them.
When offered corporate positions at large salaries, he declined, stating, "You don't want me. You want the office of the President, and that doesn't belong to me. It belongs to the American people and it's not for sale."
Even later, on May 6, 1971, when Congress was preparing to award him the Medal of Honor on his 87th birthday, he refused to accept it, writing, "I don't consider that I have done anything which should be the reason for any award, Congressional or otherwise."
As president he paid for all of his own travel expenses and food..
Modern politicians have found a new level of success in cashing in on the Presidency, resulting in untold wealth. Today, many in Congress also have found a way to become quite wealthy while enjoying the fruits of their offices. Political offices are now for sale. (sic. Illinois )
Good old Harry Truman was correct when he observed, "My choices in life were either to be a piano player in a whore house or a politician. And to tell the truth, there's hardly any difference!

Geert de Wilders On Liberty
Geert de Wilders is a Dutch Member of Parliament.
America as the last man standing
'In a generation or two, the US will ask itself: who lost Europe ?'
Here is the speech of Geert Wilders, Chairman, Party for Freedom, the Netherlands , at the Four Seasons, New York , introducing an Alliance of Patriots and announcing the Facing Jihad Conference in Jerusalem .
Dear friends,
Thank you very much for inviting me.
I come to America with a mission. All is not well in the old world. There is a tremendous danger looming, and it is very difficult to be optimistic. We might be in the final stages of the Islamization of Europe. This not only is a clear and present danger to the future of Europe itself, it is a threat to America and the sheer survival of the West. The United States as the last bastion of Western civilization, facing an Islamic Europe.
First I will describe the situation on the ground in Europe . Then, I will say a few things about Islam. To close I will tell you about a meeting in Jerusalem .
The Europe you know is changing.
You have probably seen the landmarks. But in all of these cities, sometimes a few blocks away from your tourist destination, there is another world. It is the world of the parallel society created by Muslim mass-migration.
All throughout Europe a new reality is rising: entire Muslim neighborhoo ds where very few indigenous people reside or are even seen. And if they are, they might regret it. This g oes for the police as well. It's the world of head scarves, where women walk around in figureless tents, with baby strollers and a group of children. Their husbands, or slaveholders if you prefer, walk three steps ahead. With mosques on many street corners. The shops have signs you and I cannot read. You will be hard-pressed to find any economic activity. These are Muslim ghettos controlled by religious fanatics. These are Muslim neighborhoods, and they are mushrooming in every city across Europe . These are the building-blocks for territorial control of increasingly larger portions of Europe , street by street, neighborhood by neighborhood, city by city.
There are now thousands of mosques throughout Europe . With larger congregations than there are in churches. And in every European city there are plans to build super-mosques that will dwarf every church in the region. Clearly, the signal is: we rule.
Many European cities are already one-quarter Muslim: just take Amsterdam , Marseille and Malmo in Sweden . In many cities the majority of the under-18 population is Muslim. Paris is now surrounded by a ring of Muslim neighborhoods. Mohammed is the most popular name among boys in many cities.
In some elementary schools in Amsterdam the farm can no longer be mentioned, because that would also mean mentioning the pig, and that would be an insult to Muslims.
Many state schools in Belgium and Denmark only serve halal food to all pupils. In once-tolerant Amsterdam gays are beaten up almost exclusively by Muslims. Non-Muslim women routinely hear 'whore, whore'. Satellite dishes are not pointed to local TV stations, but to stations in the country of origin.
In France school teachers are advised to avoid authors deemed offensive to Muslims, including Voltaire and Diderot; the same is increasingly true of Darwin . The history of the Holocaust can no longer be taught because of Muslim sensitivity.
In England sharia courts are now officially part of the British legal system. Many neighborhoods in France are no-go areas for women without head scarves. Last week a man almost died after being beaten up by Muslims in Brussels , because he was drinking during the Ramadan.
Jews are fleeing France in record numbers, on the run for the worst wave of anti-Semitism since World War II. French is now commonly spoken on the streets of Tel Aviv and Netanya , Israel . I could go on forever with stories like this. Stories about Islamization.
A total of fifty-four million Muslims now live in Europe . San Diego University recently calculated tha t a staggering 25 percent of the population in Europe will be Muslim just 12 years from now. Bernhard Lewis has predicted a Muslim majority by the end of this century.
Now these are just numbers. And the numbers would not be threatening if the Muslim-immigrants had a strong desire to assimilate. But ther e are few signs of that. The Pew Research Center reported that half of French Muslims see their loyalty to Islam as greater than their loyalty to France . One-third of French Muslims do not object to suicide attacks. The British Centre for Social Cohesion reported that one-third of British Muslim students are in favor of a worldwide caliphate. Muslims demand what they call 'respect'. And this is how we give them respect. We have Muslim official state holidays.
The Christian-Democratic attorney general is willing to accept sharia in the Netherlands if there is a Muslim majority. We have cabinet members with passports from Morocco and Turkey .
Muslim demands are supported by unlawful behavior, ranging from petty crimes and random violence, for example against ambulance workers and bus drivers, to small-scale riots. Paris has seen its uprising in the low-income suburbs, the banlieus. I call the perpetrators 'settlers'. Because that is what they are. They do not come to integrate into our societies; they come to integrate our society into their Dar-al-Islam. Therefore, they are settlers.
Much of this street violence I mentioned is directed exclusively against non-Muslims, forcing many native people to leave their neighborhoods, their cities, their countries. Moreover, Muslims are now a swing vote not to be ignored.
The second thing you need to know is the importance of Mohammed the prophet. His behavior is an example to all Muslims and cannot be criticized. Now, if Mohammed had been a man of peace, let us say like Ghandi and Mother Theresa wrapped in one, t here would be no problem. But Mohammed was a warlord, a mass murderer, a pedophile, and had several marriages - at the same time. Islamic tradition tells us how he fought in battles, how he had his enemies murdered and even had prisoners of war executed. Mohammed himself slaughtered the Jewish tribe of Banu Qurayza. If it is good for Islam, it is good. If it is bad for Islam, it is bad.
Let no one fool you about Islam being a religion. Sure, it has a god, and a here-after, and 72 virgins. But in its essence Islam is a political ideology. It is a system that lays down detailed rules for society and the life of every person. Islam wants to dictate every aspect of life. Islam means 'submission'. Islam is not compatible with freedom and democracy, because what it strives for is sharia. If you want to compare Islam to anything, compare it to communism or national-socialism, these are all totalitarian ideologies.
Now you know why Winston Churchill called Islam 'the most retrograde force in the world', and why he compared Mein Kampf to the Quran. The public has wholeheartedly accepted the Palestinian narrative, and sees Israel as the aggressor. I have lived in this country and visited it dozens of times. I support Israel . First, because it is the Jewish h omeland after two thousand years of exile up to and including Auschwitz, second because it is a democracy, and third because Israel is our first line of defense.
This tiny country is situated on the fault line of jihad, frustrating Islam's territorial advance. Israel is facing the front lines of jihad, like Kashmir, Kosovo, the Philippines , Southern Thailand, Darfur in Sudan , Lebanon , and Aceh in < /span> Indonesia . Israel is simply in the way. The same way West-Berlin was during the Cold War.
The war against Israel is not a war against Israel . It is a war against the West. It is jihad. Israel is simply receiving the blows that are meant for all of us. If there would have been no Israel , Islamic imperialism would have found other venues to release its energy and its desire for conquest. Thanks to Israeli parents who send their children to the army and lay awake at night, parents in Europe and America can sleep well and dream, unaware of the dangers looming.
Many in Europe argue in favor of abandoning Israel in order to address the grievances of our Muslim minorities. But if Israel were, God forbid, to go down, it would n ot bring any solace to the West It would not mean our Muslim minorities would all of a sudden change their behavior, and accept our values. On the contrary, the end of Israel would give enormous encouragement to the forces of Islam. They would, and rightly so, see the demise of Israel as proof that the West is weak, and doomed. The end of Israel would not mean the end of our problems with Islam, but only the beginning. It would mean the start of the final battle for world domination. If they can get Israel , they can get everything. So-called journalists volunteer to label any and all critics of Islamization as a 'right-wing extremists' or 'racists'. In my country, the Netherlands, 60 percent of the population now sees the mass immigration of Muslims as the number one policy mistake since World War II. And another 60 percent sees Islam as the biggest threat. Yet there is a danger greater danger than terrorist attacks, the scenario of America as the last man standing. The lights may go out in Europe faster than you can imagine. An Islamic Europe means a Europe without freedom and democracy, an economic wasteland, an intellectual nightmare, and a loss of military might for America - as its allies will turn into enemies, enemies with atomic bombs. With an Islamic Europe, it would be up to America alone to preserve the heritage of Rome , Athens and Jerusalem.
Dear friends, liberty is the most precious of gifts. My generation never had to fight for this freedom, it was offered to us on a silver platter, by people who fought for it with their lives. All throughout Europe, American cemeteries remind us of the young boys who never made it home, and whose memory we cherish. My generation does not own this freedom; we are merely its custodians. We can only hand over this hard won liberty to Europe 's children in the same state in which it was offered to us. We cannot strike a deal with mullahs and imams. Future generations would never forgive us. We cannot squander our liberties. We simply do not have the right to do so.
We have to take the necessary action now to stop this Islamic stupidity from destroying the free world that we know.

Journalist Ngeligence
Once again the New York Post reports "medical" diagnoses, a part of medical records. Revealing them is a violation of HIPAA laws. If the source is not the records of what value are they. Why does the mother openly tell journalists about her son's medical records? Is she a psychiatrist or at least a doctor? Why is this an issue for journalists? What is the connection between diagnosis and accusations of crime? Is this one more example of negligent journalists perpetuating an irrational belief too many years passsed the time when it is known not to be true?

‘Change’ Is Not New

New Mental Illness
This new mental illness explains that only Saddam Hussein had body doubles. Zeller, Tom. "Will the real Suddam Hussein please step down (Saddam Hussein may use up to three body doubles)." New York Times 6 Oct. 2002 If other persons claim to see a body double it is delusional. Psychiatry is a wondrous discipline which can be anything or nothing; and everything that one wants it to be. Anyone can make diagnoses and everyone is an expert. What is hilarious is that so many people believe the nonsense. Recently we heard that sex addiction is a mental illness which can be cured by expensive rehab affordable by Tiger Woods, Jesse James and Charlie Sheen. Ahem! Anything to make money, uh, to redistribute money.

Progressives Vs The Founders
[From article]
"All this was supposed to have been consigned to the past long ago. The Progressives of the early 1900s -- Presidents Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, New Republic founder Herbert Croly -- argued that in an industrial era of mass production and giant businesses, ordinary people were helpless and needed government's guiding hand. It would be more efficient, they argued, for centralized experts to administer national institutions than to let chaotic markets operate freely and to observe the Constitution's horse-and-buggy limits on government power. The Founders were out of date.[. . .]centralized experts are not as wise and ordinary Americans are not as helpless as the Progressives thought.[. . .]
efforts to dismiss the Founders as slaveholders, misogynists or homophobes have been outweighed by the resonance of their words and deeds.[. . .]
Polls and recent election results tell us that racial minorities and the so-called "educated class" -- the people who expect their kind will administer centralized institutions -- still take the side of the Progressives. Most Americans, however, are rejecting the path of dependence and are intent on declaring their independence once again."

it now seems incredible that an America that was half-armed in 1941 defeated Japan and utterly destroyed the idea of Japanese militarism in less than four years — a feat attributable in large part to the amazing courage and expertise of American soldiers."

You Cannot Laugh When Alone. Huh?
"Laughter above all else is a social thing," [Baltimore neuroscientist Robert] Provine said. "The requirement for laughter is another person."(SETH BORENSTEIN, "Science bids to graph the laugh," AP, New York Post, April 1, 2010) This is absolute nonsense. One person can laugh at his own jokes or even his own thoughts. If he laughs without another person present it is still laughter. This is one more example of scientists getting lost in their research and ignoring reality. Many super-educated persons have no common sense.

Dehumanizing Humans
In this article which is not unique, a man accused of a crime is referred to as an illness. This is a pervasive example of how journalists dehumanize persons accused of mental illnesses. If the suspect had a broken leg would the reporter say (or the editors allow him to say) "broken-legged John Doe is accused of tweeting..." What is the causal connection between crime and psychiatry?
Moreover it is a violation of HIPAA laws to reveal medical records. What or who is the source of the diagnosis of this man? If it is not from a medical record of what value is the diagnosis if made by police, a relative or a neighbor? If everybody makes diagnoses who needs psychiatrists?

Letter from Leon A. Weinstein
*Open letter to my Jewish brethrens*
by Leon A. Weinstein
March 27, 2010
Until recently those of us who were saying that President Obama is not a
friend of Israel were ridiculed and laughed at. See how sweet he talks
about Israel? See how he swears that Israel is America s best friend? See
how many Jewish members of congress are behind him? See how many rabbis are
praising him? See how many Jewish votes he gets?
Yes, I see. I am amazed, perplexed and disgusted at the same time. My
question to my brothers is very simple are you crazed, blind, deaf or is
self-preservation that deeply rooted in you? I do not see any other
explanations of why you would love, adore, cherish and praise Obama after
what he is doing to us and to our nation. Yes, we are Americans first, but
Israel is where our roots are, where our religion started, where legends
were born, where for thousands of years our dreams lived. Next year in
Jerusalem was what our grandfathers were saying to bear the unbearable life
they lived. How will you feel after *Ahmadinejad** *nukes Israel while
America is looking the other way? The Obama White House will of course
strongly condemn this terrible and barbaric deed while thinking that now
their relations with the Muslim world will not be spoiled by this
insignificant country called Israel. This is obviously insignificant for
Obama, but very significant for me. My mom and my brother live there. And it
is significant for millions of Christians, who are much more vocal in
defending Israel than most of us, Jews. Maybe all the brave Jews have left
America? Maybe only the weak and the cowardly remain?
Will you, my Jewish brothers, feel guilty even for a second if Israel
disappears from the map? If it will be overrun by Muslims, the blood of
killed Jews will be on our hands as well. What will you say to yourself to
excuse your silence? For how long will you be in sorrow? Until the next
appearance of your new God Obama? Or it is Marx? Lenin? Mao? Who is it
this time? David Axelrod? Rahm Emanuel?
Let me repeat to you what you yourself know very well. Israel was created in
1949 by the United Nations because six million Jews were killed by Germans
and German sympathizers. The world for a brief moment felt guilty and
decided to create a home for the Jewish people. Starting from its formation
in 1949 Israel has fought for its existence against all its neighbors with
population of about hundred times larger than Israel. Those nations have
resources that are about a thousand times richer than Israel, except for one
small insignificant thing called gray cells. Here Israelis finally having an
advantage over their enemies. Jews are by far best researchers in the world,
best chess players in the world, best mathematicians, physicians, electronic
experts, and as a matter of fact are great doctors, musicians, legal experts
and to their own surprise superb military strategists.
Israel has never initiated any wars with its neighbors. Israel however is
constantly attacked and provoked by each and every one of its neighbors and
other anti-Semitic countries of the region and outside. Can you imagine that
in your city or hometown on average there are two or three rockets and bombs
a day going off and killing your children? How you would react? Would you be
demanding from your government and generals to stop this every day massacre?
Would you be calm and live happy life in between explosions?
Israel signed dozens of treaties, each and every time the other side
breached every agreement that was ever signed. Israel wants peace. It wants
to raise their kids, swim in warm waters of the Mediterranean, worship their
God and create new electronic gadgets and cures for thousands of illnesses.
The neighboring countries want to erase Israel and its population from the
face of the earth. They said it thousands of times and repeat at every
festive occasion.
Israel is the size of Los Angeles County. Its neighbors proved several times
that when they occupy hills at the Israeli border, every car and train that
goes between Haifa, Tel Aviv and Jerusalem is a subject of an artillery or
rocket attack. It is impossible to live in Israel if the heights on the
borders are in the hands of Arabs.
Millions of Muslims live in Israel; they vote, they are members of the
parliament, practice their religion and travel abroad. They even give
speeches about how terrible their life is under Israeli occupation. No one
yet was punished for those speeches they constantly repeat on Israeli
television. Muslims are lawyers, physicians, teachers and business people
who have in Israel equal right with Jews. Go to Israel and see for yourself.
No Jew however can peacefully live on a territory of any neighboring Muslim
country. Such a Jew will be killed, tortured, his family will be raped and
crucified and their home destroyed. It was done thousands upon thousands of
times. No proof needed any more. There are no Jews in Lebanon, Syria or
Jordan. They all left or were killed.
There is a territory now called Palestine. It was once part of Jordan, but
after several attacks by Arabs on neighboring Israeli villages, the
territory was taken by Israelis and now is under Israeli control. Israel
agreed to return most of it back to Arabs, but it will never return the
hills on the borders to Arabs. It would be suicidal. Israel will not build a
wall dividing its capitol in two parts. It is the capitol of their state.
Can you imagine your sworn enemy occupying half of Washington DC, and
teaching their children that for every American killed they will be awarded
seventy virgins by the mighty God?
Israel will not stop breathing, producing, creating, living. Israel will
never give up its right to be a nation under God, equal with other nations,
with the same rights that other nations have.
Obama demands that Israel stop building homes on its own territories, in its
own capitol and within its own Jewish neighborhoods. Even Arab leaders never
asked Israel to stop building housing in Jerusalem. Palestinians have never
ever demanded as a pre-condition to any negotiations to stop construction in
Israeli neighborhoods. The first one to demand construction of housing in
Jerusalem to stop was the mighty President of the United States of America
Barack Obama.
Now Palestinian leaders, in order not to look less demanding than American
president, insist on freezing construction in Jerusalem. Jews can't stop
building homes for their own citizens. Palestinians can't now drop this
demand. This ends any possible peace accord or even negotiations. That is
not a simple flop in Obama s foreign policy. It is a manmade disaster. And
we know which man has created it.
When Obama did a similarly unwise move for the first time, we all thought
that he did it because of his inexperience in International affairs. When a
person whom everyone calls smart does it for the second time, we understand
that it is done intentionally. There are a couple of possible explanations
of what those intentions can be. All of the possible explanations are ugly.
I however am not discussing Obama or his policies. I am talking to you, Jews
for Obama. We are demanding that moderate Muslims condemn terrible acts of
their fanatical brethren. Isn't it about time you come out of your closets
and condemn actions of your wonderful progressive president who is
destroying our best ally, the only democracy in the middle east, a country
populated by children and grandchildren of those who was burned in Hitler s
crematoriums and by those who were silent, who looked the other way when
Hitler was killing six million Jews? There are exactly six million Jews in
Israel now.
Where are you, why you are not all over this new Holocaust? Iran has
promised to nuke Israel out of existence the moment they are able to. They
will be able to very soon. Obama will not stop Iran and will not help Israel
to prevent it from happening. It was you who said Never again! You keep
saying that every Passover. It is about to happen again and now with your
help.
Raise your voices! Get out of hiding! Say no to Obama. Say, Mr. President,
you will lose our votes and our support. You will lose us if you will sell
Israel for Arab s oil, or for whatever it is you want them to give you in
exchange. If you think that when you will sell Israel, the Arabs will become
our friends, think again. Maybe they will be your friends Mr. President, but
not America's friends. America is the Great Satan they are fighting with.
You will sell our friends and bombs will come to our doorsteps.
Popularity of Obama in Israel dropped from seventy percent year ago to seven
per cent twelve months after the inauguration. Jerusalem Post wrote that it
falling deeper and deeper and now is about four percent. Tell my brother and
mom who live in Israel, tell all your relatives and friends, to all Israelis
that you never raised your voice because of political correctness. Tell them
that their lives are not that important for you to speak up.
Or do not say anything at all. Go to your bedroom and put your head under a
pillow. And feel sorry for yourself!

Maxine Explains the Health Care Bill
Maxine sums up the health care bill
Let me get this straight. We're going to be gifted with a health care plan written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that hasn't read it, but exempts themselves from it, to be signed by a president who smokes, with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes, to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and to be financed by a country that's broke.
Well ... what could possibly go wrong?
Obama and Christianity
In 1952 President Truman established one day a year as a
"National Day of Prayer."
In 1988, President Reagan designated the first Thursday
in May of each year as the National Day of Prayer.
In June 2007, (then) Presidential candidate Barack Obama declared that the
USA was no longer a Christian nation.
This year President Obama, canceled the 21st annual National Day of Prayer
ceremony at the White House under the rouse of "not wanting to offend anyone"
On September 25, 2009 from 4 am until 7 pm, a National Day of Prayer for the Muslim religion was
held on Capitol Hill, beside the White House. There were over 50,000 Muslims that
day in DC.

Harold Estes: Letter to Obama
[Snopes says this is accurate]
this gentleman says it just like it is. 
this gentleman says it just like it is.
Subject: WW II Battleship sailor tells Obama to shape up or ship out !
WW II Battleship sailor tells Obama to shape up or ship out !
This venerable and much honored WW II vet is well known in Hawaii
for his seventy-plus years of service to patriotic organizations and causes
all over the country. A humble man without a political bone in his body,
he has never spoken out before about a government official, until now.
He dictated this letter to a friend, signed it and mailed it to the president.
Dear President Obama,
My name is Harold Estes, approaching 95 on December 13 of this year. People meeting me for the first time don't believe my age because I remain wrinkle free and pretty much mentally alert.
I enlisted in the U.S. Navy in 1934 and served proudly before, during and after WW II retiring as a Master Chief Bos'n Mate. Now I live in a "rest home" located on the western end of Pearl Harbor , allowing me to keep alive the memories of 23 years of service to my country.One of the benefits of my age, perhaps the only one, is to speak my mind, blunt and direct even to the head man.So here goes.I am amazed, angry and determined not to see my country die before I do, but you seem hell bent not to grant me that wish.I can't figure out what country you are the president of.You fly around the world telling our friends and enemies despicable lies like:" We're no longer a Christian nation"" America is arrogant" - (Your wife evenannounced to the world," America is mean-spirited. " Please tell her to try preachingthat nonsense to 23 generations of ourwar dead buried all over the globe whodied for no other reason than to free awhole lot of strangers from tyranny andhopelessness.)I'd say shame on the both of you, but I don't think you like America, nor do I see an ounce of gratefulness in anything you do, for the obvious gifts this country has given you. To be without shame or gratefulness is a dangerous thing for a man sitting in the White House.
After 9/11 you said," America hasn't lived up to her ideals."Which ones did you mean? Was it the notion of personal liberty that 11,000 farmers and shopkeepers died for to win independence from the British? Or maybe the ideal that no man should be a slave to another man, that 500,000 men died for in the Civil War? I hope you didn't mean the ideal 470,000 fathers, brothers, husbands, and a lot of fellas I knew personally died for in WWII, because we felt real strongly about not letting any nation push us around, because we stand for freedom.
I don't think you mean the ideal that says equality is better than discrimination. You know the one that a whole lot of white people understood when they helped to get you elected.
Take a little advice from a very old geezer, young man.Shape up and start acting like an American. If you don't, I'll do what I can to see you get shipped out of that fancy rental on Pennsylvania Avenue . You were elected to lead not to bow, apologize and kiss the hands of murderers and corrupt leaders who still treat their people like slaves.
And just who do you think you are telling the American people not to jump to conclusions and condemn that Muslim major who killed 13 of his fellow soldiers and wounded dozens more. You mean you don't want us to do what you did when that white cop used force to subdue that black college professor in Massachusetts , who was putting up a fight? You don't mind offending the police calling them stupid but you don't want us to offend Muslim fanatics by calling them what they are, terrorists.
One more thing. I realize you never served in the military and never had to defend your country with your life, but you're the Commander-in-Chief now, son. Do your job. When your battle-hardened field General asks you for 40,000 more troops to complete the mission, give them to him. But if you're not in this fight to win, then get out. The life of one American soldier is not worth the best political strategy you're thinking of.
You could be our greatest president because you face the greatest challenge ever presented to any president.You're not going to restore American greatness by bringing back our bloated economy. That's not our greatest threat. Losing the heart and soul of who we are as Americans is our big fight now.And I sure as hell don't want to think my president is the enemy in this final battle.Sincerely,Harold B. Estes

Obama at Chicago Law School
The heading at the top reads “POWER ANALYSIS”. The sub-heading reads “RELATIONSHIPS BUILD ON SELF INTEREST”. The symbol on the arrow between “CORP” and “MAYOR” is the “$” sign.
Saul Alinsky came up with the idea of power analysis, which looks at relationships built on self-interest between corporations, banks and utilities. Barack Obama was teaching students in Chicago the Alinsky Principles.
Of course, this is not a surprise. After watching the bribes, kickbacks, lies and threats this past year as Democrats fought to take over the health care industry, it’s obvious that the only subject Obama excels at is Alinsky’s Rules For Radicals.

Obama's Plan for Total Control
Obamacare is just the beginning of a total take over of America
By Dr. Laurie Roth Tuesday, March 30, 2010
America must not and will not become like the seduced German people in 1933. We will not stand by and watch Obama turn our country into Frankenstein’s laboratory, shredding our constitution, bill of rights and freedom as Hitler did with his country. Tyrants and Dictators are predictably similar in how they take over. They ride in as the savior of change and hope. They offer health care, jobs for all, a refreshed national identity and protection from danger and harm….that is danger and harm they usually create to blame on enemies…..you know those groups who didn’t vote for them. The rope circles around the seduced neck of the people only after the dictator bribes his way in or gets voted in.
One thing is for sure looking at recent history. Once a socialist/communist dictator gets into power, like terminal cancer, he and his administration smother and take control of every aspect of the economy, educational system, health care system and military. They shred and control media, entertainment and religion.
In 1919, Lenin wrote after his takeover of Russia that the way to control a country is to first take over the industry, the land, and the banks. Lenin tricked and inspired millions and so did Hitler. These dictators didn’t come in appearing like monsters. They were the messiahs of change and hope. Their exhaustive plans involved developing a huge and seduced ‘fan’ base at first while aggressively and quickly finding and destroying anyone against them.
Kitty Werthmann was living in Austria when Hitler took over Germany next door. She recalls how deeply depressed Austria was in 1938. Nearly one-third of their workforce was unemployed. They had 25% inflation and 25% interest rates on bank loans.
People were begging for food and bankruptcies were happening daily. Austria was in a mess, so they were thrilled when Hitler promised big things and was elected into power. There was no talk of persecuting or attacking the Jews. The Austrians were promised jobs, healthcare, protection and recovery.
Kitty said that after the election was over there was instantly law and order. German officials were appointed everywhere and there was dancing in the streets. Though Austria was largely a Catholic country, suddenly in schools everywhere, all Catholic symbols and crosses were taken down and pictures of Hitler were put up everywhere.
Hitler targeted and controlled education and stopped religious instruction for kids in schools. The new church for the children of Austria and Germany was still every Sunday, but it now was forced attendance at the National Youth Day. The first two hours was political indoctrination every Sunday, then the rest of the day they played all kinds of sports. Naturally, the equipment was free. Children went home thrilled each Sunday and were getting brainwashed. Parents had no choice but to send their children each Sunday or else be fined or taken to jail.
Hitler immediately introduced socialist health care. People were going to the hospital for everything now, lines were huge and doctors were paid a salary by the Government. The Austrians soon paid 80% of their income in taxes. Government gave loans for the newly married, and took care of everything from day care needs to paying all College tuition.
As the noose tightened around education, religion, healthcare and enforcement, the ‘mercy killings’ started in. Kitty, then a student teacher in a small village in the Alps, described 15 mentally retarded adults who were known in the community and did good manual work. One day they were rounded up and taken to an institution where the State Health Department would teach them a trade and various skills. Their families where forced to sign papers saying that they wouldn’t visit them for 6 months. They were told that any visits could cause homesickness and disrupt the program.
The letters started arriving back to the parents after several months saying these people had died natural deaths. Of course, they all knew 15 completely healthy adults could not, six months later, have all died natural deaths. They knew they were killed. Euthanasia started to become more common as Hitler’s real world view of perfection started to come out.
Hitler’s final control step of the Germans and Austrians was Gun laws and control. He started with gun registration. Once that was done, he said that guns were causing too much crime and that it was best for all to turn in their guns. They knew that authorities already knew who owned what so they complied.
When you look at Hitler, Saul Alinsky, Stalin, Lenin, Chavez, Castro and others, you see huge similarities with the strategy and world view of Obama. It is the same, promise of health care, jobs and opportunities. There is always a contrived crises or two the big Government has to magically solve, while blaming the enemies they want to create.
Obama is on the same control and dictatorship path as Hitler. First we saw the massive seduction over 15 months; now the controls and intimidation grow with his administration.
This Health care bill might as well have been Hitler’s Enabling Act of March 23rd, 1933. It also shreds our constitution and forces socialized health care on the people, rationing care for the unwanted and expensive seniors as they age, and forcing us all to pay for the Government slaughter of babies; abortion. This bill, run by the IRS, might as well be the Nazi party, as it encourages euthanasia, abortion and rationed care as Hitler did early on in Austria and Germany.
Rep. Burgess stated the obvious about this nightmare bill when asked about the use of the ‘Commerce clause’ excusing forced mandates by the Government. In a CNSNews.com interview Rep. Burgess, a doctor, stated, “No, I personally do not, and I think that is exactly right. Never before in the history of this country have we had the ability to coerce American citizens to purchase something and then invoke the Commerce clause after we coerce that purchase.” He went on…..”It just flies in the face of what a free society should be, so I’m perfectly comfortable with the attorneys general bringing suit against this bill,”
Yes, law suits are flying by Attorney Generals and other groups. We must stand no matter how awkward, inconvenient or expensive it is. Our freedom and country is at stake.
Obama isn’t stopping with forced Health care and the controls attached to that. He is going to manipulate votes by pushing amnesty for illegal aliens; controlling American businesses through cap and trade, then he will find a manipulative, back door way to come for our guns….most likely with a UN Treaty he is already working toward.
Obama continues to mock anyone who disagrees with him, and is now, according to the Wall Street Journal, stepping up Confrontation . Obama must be voted out. I don’t see any tin helmet on my head, and yes…..Obama comes from the same essence and evil as Hitler.
Voted Out? Ha! Like Health care was voted out Right? By Court action now! Not 2012! Far too late!

AP Greatly Distorts History
[From article]
"The Associated Press has a famous book on grammar and style that its news writers use to govern their work, a book that is also popular with the whole American news industry. It has served as a standard for many years. The AP, however, seems to have no style or rule for reporting history. Or rather, perhaps it does and the rule is to purposefully garble American history, always skewing it."

Socialism and Equal Outcomes for Unequal Effort
[This pattern is true in another context. It involves working for the police, and the government. They punish people who help them and reward criminals. This same pattern extends to the FBI. I know this from personal experience and from a memoir by Robert Peroff, called "Peroff." After doing the government a favor, US agents destroyed his life. On the other side of the coin, a Massachusetts hit man who admitted to 19 homicides spent about 7 months for each murder in prison. When he was released the US Department of Justice gave him $20,000.]
This teacher is truly a genius!
The late Adrian Rogers said, "you cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."
This man is truly a genius!
An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had once failed an entire class. That class had insisted that Obama's socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer.
The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on Obama's plan".
All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so no one would fail and no one would receive an A...
After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B. The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy. As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little.
The second test average was a D! No one was happy.
When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F.
As the tests proceeded, the scores never increased as bickering, blame and name-calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else.
All failed, to their great surprise, and the professor told them that socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed.
Could not be any simpler than that.

Cambridge Achievement Gap
Cambridge politicians say, "it is necessary to focus directly on achievement" in the schools. One way to ensure "achievement" is by lowering standards. School officials and politicians can say that the teachers are doing their jobs. But when students are unable to read and add when they go to work this "achievement" is exposed a false. Some unpopular studies indicate that the absence of a father in the home has an enormous effect on student achievement. Cambridge officials will never address this issue due to the nature of the conformist party that rules Massachusetts. It is not politically correct to make single parents feel bad.

Cambridge Man Arrested?
Did he quote Harvard Professor Henry Louis Gates, "Do you know who I am?" Have we heard from the Cambridge Mayor, the Governor and the President of the US to have the charges dropped, and that the police acted stupidly? Or will Grubman have to suffer the consequences of having the charges dropped after a year? Why did Gates get such special treatment? Both are wealthy elitist Ivy League graduates.

Why is Congress Slow Bringing Sharia Law?
Egyptians are immune from prosecution in the USA. Can't prosecute except using Sharia law. Or has that not passed the US Congress yet? What is taking them so long? Wasted too much time on health care due to those neanderthal terrorist right wing gun loving Republicans. Why are Republicans allowed to run for office? They just slow the good and the just from being implemented. Who do they think they are? Citizens or something?

Lawyers Run Courts as a Business
Surprise! Courts are a business and a sport run for and by licensed attorneys. It is a game that one side wins. Sometimes the fix is in. Most times it is based on who is more diligent or negligent. A sleeping attorney is competent counsel according to the Supreme Court of the US. Courts allow only "evidence" as testimony. Truth is not what courts find. Cases are decided based on evidence. In Plato's Republic where justice is discussed, Thrasymachus suggests that justice is "the interests of the stronger." Does that explain why wealthy, politically connected defendants get away with murder?
