Legislation
Assimilation
One of the issues surrounding illegal immigration is the lack of their willingness to assimilate into established society. This is not unique to the Hispanic community, but all immigrants, legal and illegal. Throughout the history of this country non-assimilation has been a constant.
When the Europeans came to this country their intent was not to assimilate into the established society, but to conquer the original inhabitants. There are points in the beginning of that history where the immigrants received free benefits from the established society. Benefits that came from the labor of the established inhabitants, which without, the immigrants would have perished.
How did the immigrants repay the life saving freebies received? They told their friends and families in their native countries how great it was here and invited them to come to this country to get their share of that Thanksgiving pie. Once here they repaid the generosity of their hosts with death, disease, and enslavement. Ultimately the immigrants forced assimilation of the original inhabitants into their new society, resulting in the destruction of the original inhabitants culture, ways of life, and religion.
Look to the past to see the future.
In less than 200 years the original inhabitants population went from 3 million people to approximately 300,000. The immigrant invasion resulted in a 90% decimation of the original population.
Now let’s fast forward to today. We are the established society. Americans born and bred. The Native population, so-to-speak. What are we facing?
Illegals invading our country, coming for the freebies, living off the graciousness of the established society. How do they repay their hosts? Their repayment is a bankruptcy of their hosts and demanding more. Their repayment is a refusal to obey the laws of the established society. Their repayment is a staunch unwillingness to assimilate into the established society. Their intent is to force the established society to become enslaved, under threat of annihilation, to the invading society.
We are not only being invaded by an illegal population, but by another population whose sole purpose is to destroy us, as a people, our laws, our way of life, and our religion, by force and subterfuge. Their war is their religion, which states the infidel must be destroyed. They are an invading force that is replacing our laws with their own, refusing to assimilate, and claiming areas of land and populations conquered by erecting their religious monuments as markers of ownership. They are hunting us down all over the globe. Yet we still allow them to come to our land and take over our businesses, our schools, our courts, our politics, even our White House, and shred our Constitution.
Look to the past to see the future.
Unless we stop being the gracious host and fight for the very survival of our way of life we have but look to the past to see our future. After all, now, we are the original people with an established society headed toward oblivion.

by: TerryCSA
May 26, 2010
I have had it up to my eyeballs with “social justice”. The bare fact is that for one group to have “social justice” another must suffer “social injustice”. We have seen it for decades and people, out of political correctness, keep pussy footing around the subject. Well I have had enough and it is time to call a spade a spade. I’m sure the left wing moonbats and those of the “PC” crowd will consider that a racial slur, Screw ‘em! It is time we start talking truth and fact otherwise we will forever be stuck in this load of crap.
The only ones that reaped social justice for decades, which should in reality be called Marxist subversion and white guilt, are the blacks in this country. Poor pitiful black folk are so poor and downtrodden, we must help them out and raise them up. What a load of crap this has been since its inception. A look throughout history shows that black folk can pull themselves up same as anybody else. All it takes is pride, initiative, and guts, which thanks to “social justice” have been stripped away from them.
What has social justice produced in the black race? One in four adult males in prison. Rampant breeding. Drug addiction/dealing and gang violence. Sloth, filth and destruction.
Harsh words? You betcha! Why? Because truth hurts. Will you call me a racist because of it? Most likely. Think I care? Nope. For 50 years I have watched this country cater to one race over another. For 50 years I have watched and listened as the benefactors of “social justice” cry “Give me mo. Give me my money.” It ain’t yo money! It is my money that crooked ass politicians think they have a right to redistribute to your sloven, lazy, greedy carcass. Why? Because in Marxist terminology you are “useful idiots”.
The same as the Black Robes turned the American Indians into alcoholics, “social justice” has turned the blacks into something worse – a black sucking hole. “Entitlements”, a nice word for an excuse to sit on ones lazy carcass and whine and cry about how bad things are while getting a government check every month, food stamps, free housing, free medical, free cell phones, gas vouchers, free electric, free computers, etc., etc. The list is endless. With all one needs being handed to them without an expectation of return why on earth would anyone want to work and struggle and succeed? Why that just doesn’t seem like an intelligent thing to do.
This is not exclusive of the black population by no means. They are just the biggest recipients and abusers of “entitlements”, so far. We must include the SSI crowd. Those drunks and druggies and the ones that some social worker deems mentally inadequate in that group as well. These derelicts of society that some damned social worker tells, “It is okay to be a drunk or a drug addict. It’s not your fault. Mommy and Daddy wouldn’t let you play with matches and burn the house down. Let me get you a “crazy check” and you can continue to get drunk and stoned and not be accountable while all your needs are met. And while you’re at it I have job security because I get paid by the government to encourage you to continue your anti-social ways.”
The black activists invoke the words of Martin Luther King, “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” But, yet, the black population has done a disservice to that statement. Or better yet have fulfilled a prophecy. You are judged by the content of your character and it is found lacking.
I think these words of MLK have been bastardized and skewed and misinterpreted, “But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt. We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation. And so, we’ve come to cash this check, a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.” I don’t think he meant sit on your duff with your hand out and expect someone else to fulfill your every need. It seems that the black activists backed by Marxists and their Communist Manifest have twisted MLK’s word to say, “But we refuse to believe that the bank of entitlements is bankrupt. We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of this nation. And so, we’ve come to cash this check, a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of social justice.”
Just as the Indians voice was drowned out by the blacks screams for “give me mo”, the black voice will be drowned out by the Chicanos scream of “Deme! Deme!”. The black population has reached their pinnacle of “useful idiocy”. They are coming to realize they have been played by their black brother in the White House. Now is the time the Marxists will overload the system with a new breed of useful idiots – the Latino. Why? 20 million new voters who will be the “useful idiots” of the Democratic Socialist Party. 20 million new people to fulfill the Cloward-Piven strategy to bring the United States Republic to its end. And they come ready made with an abundance of drug dealing and violence, over-breeding and lawlessness, and a ready-made sense of entitlement. Gee, what an idyllic tool for the Democratic Socialist Party. Karl Marx must be dancing with delight in hell.
The Declaration of Independence states, “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness”.
It does not guarantee a particular race that all things belonging to one person should belong to them, no more than it guarantees me access to the coffers of the Getty’s or Rothschild’s. It guarantees each and every one of us, regardless of our heritage, the opportunity to achieve in life that which we work hard for and EARN. Until such time that all people realize that simply fact there is no freedom, not for the black man, not for the red man, not for the yellow man, not for the brown man, and not for the white man.
The white man, through his own doing, has become the slave of all other races because of because of Marxist ideology, because of the “white guilt” crowd, because of political correctness, because of “social justice”.

Who These People Are
by: Jennifer III
I’ll Take Liberty
If you’re ever in the forest walking along, not paying much attention, and stumble into a small brown furry object and suddenly that little furry object howls in fear, shoots up the nearest tree like a rocket and looks down at you in fright….you should know that you are in for some pain.
You see, it’s not the little bear you should worry about, it’s the several hundred pounds of fur, teeth and claws that is probably moving in your direction as fast as it possibly can.
Normally bears are just as afraid of you as you are of them. But this isn’t a normal situation. You are now the threat and nothing short of killing the mother bear or outrunning her will save your life.
On this day in 1985, as posted on Cliffs Of Insanity. Innocents are killed, considered acceptable collateral damage by a government bent on putting down a resistance group in Philadelphia by bombing them. Five children died.
On another day in 1993. A resistance group is burned alive, women, children and all.
Another day in 1933. An unknown number of women, children and babies died.
Whenever the government feels threatened, they take it out on our children. Some would say this is a good reason to let the government do whatever they want, for the sake of our children. They control us by using our children as hostages.
I was going to post a graphic picture of children killed during the holocaust, but I just couldn’t stomach the images. Yeah, kowtowing to the demands of government worked out real well for those mothers, didn’t it?
And yes, it can happen here. It already has.
The smart mother bears work actively to protect their young before any of the above happens to their little bears. This isn’t just politics, it’s a fight for our young. A fight for their very lives and futures.
So my question to all the other loving parents out there within the reach of this post is this:
What are you going to do about it?

by: Jennifer III
I’ll Take Liberty
May 19, 2010
It’s time we cleared something up among all us ‘right wing extremists’. There are no such thing as “Second Amendment rights”. Now I’m not saying we don’t have a right to keep and bear arms. Quite the opposite. What I am saying is that when we call them “Second Amendment rights” we cheapen them. They are much more than that.
“A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”
Notice it doesn’t say that the right to keep and bear arms ‘is hereby granted’, or anything to that effect. It’s talking about something that already exists, something that predates the Constitution. In fact, the Constitution’s preamble says the purpose of the whole document is to ‘secure the blessings of Liberty’.
Going back a bit further to the Declaration of Independence:
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.”
Here again, they are talking about pre-existing rights, rights we are born with. The rights are not created by the document, if anything the government is created by the rights. The rights existed long before the government was formed and will continue to exist long after the government in question ends. Rights are forever, they are eternal.
To call our God-given (or natural) rights “Second Amendment rights” implies that the rights are dependent on the government to exist or be of any use. Really, the right to arms is something they can never take away. Attempts to take the right are of no moral force, and human beings are under no moral obligation to follow laws that attempt to infringe on this right.
Another important thing to understand about the Second Amendment is that it only applies to the federal government.
When the Constitution first came into force, several states had official religions. Many of them did other things not in harmony with the Bill of Rights. It was only later when the Supreme Court got into incorporating portions of the Bill of Rights against the states, that anything in those first ten amendments meant anything to state governments. And for some reason they still haven’t gotten around to incorporating the Second Amendment.
Fortunately, many of the same legal protections from the Bill of Rights exist in state constitutions, often with the same language as the Second Amendment, word for word. If the federal Second Amendment was meant to guarantee that states wouldn’t attempt to infringe on that right, why would the writers of the state constitutions have even bothered?
More importantly, is that the only layer of legal protection you want between the state and your arms? Keep in mind that DC v. Heller said the amendment guaranteed an individual right, but subjected it to restrictions such as licensing, registration, and restrictions on the types of weapons owned or where you can take them. If that’s all that’s stopping your state government from violating your rights, even the ‘conservative’ judges on the court give them quite a bit of leeway with your rights.
It’s important to keep in mind that our right to keep and bear arms is a fundamental human right, not something granted by benevolent politicians that can be retracted at a whim, or even ten million whims.
It’s also important to hold your state government to the standards set by your state Constitution. Work actively to repeal any law that infringes on your fundamental rights and then work to nullify the federal laws.
But most of all, don’t lend Leviathan any credibility by referring to your right to keep and bear arms as a “Second Amendment” right.

by TerryCSA
May 17, 2010
As Virginia Foxx (R-NC) said, “There isn’t any common sense in D.C.” Trying to understand their line of thinking is mind boggling. Where did these people come from. It’s no wonder they don’t want any history prior to Rutherford B. Hayes being taught, they have never read history. If they had they wouldn’t be under the misconception that any of the following myths have any validity.
There just isn’t any rationale in their thinking. Recently a psychologist released the results of a 30 year study of liberalism and has determined liberlism to be a mental illness. I will have to concur with that finding. You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to realize these people aren’t all there. They are somewhere between mentally ill and inherently evil.
14 Myths Commonly Held by Progressives aka Dems, Libs, Socialists, Marxists, Communists
1. Government taxes have no effect on unemployment.
2. Illegal immigration does not depress overall market wages.
3. Government regulations incur no costs on the economy.
4. When the wealthy acquire new wealth, they do so on the backs of the rest of us, making us financially worse off.
5. President FDR was good for the country, and the Great Depression would have been far worse had it not been for him.
6. The process by which a drug must be approved by the FDA does not contribute to unnecessary deaths by denying experimental drugs to terminally ill patients.
7. The government regulations enforced by the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Health Care Organizations (JCAHO) do not contribute to increased health care costs.
8. Minimum wage laws do not contribute to higher unemployment rates.
9. Growth of big government and regulatory bodies do not contribute to corporate-government corruption.
10. Government programs are more efficient, because government agencies, by design, do not seek marketplace profits.
11. Corporate profits can (and should, whenever possible) be efficiently reallocated through government programs to increase efficiency.
12. Government spending in the economy is equal to (if not better than) spending in the private sector.
13. The Tea Party movement is a small minority fringe movement comprised of racists and white supremacists.
14. Government reforms proposed by the Democrat Party are not at all “government takeovers”. In fact it is unfair to categorize them as such.

by Bill Turner
May 14, 2010
America is involved in the second civil war in our nations history. No shots have been fired, but the rhetoric is getting stronger and Maximus the Liar is doing all he can to provoke violent clashes between his brain damaged communist minions and those Americans left who still love the country and believe in the values of the Constitution, you know, little things like our God given inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, our right to not have our speech or our ability to assemble infringed upon, things like that. Americans are pushing back, in small tribal bands, scattered throughout the land, but have not found a cohesive strategy to defeat the evil that is within. We must prepare, we must strengthen ourselves and we must win. The battles are daily and the war rages on. Come with me if you want to be free.
It is time for conservatives, libertarians, constitutionalists, and lovers of America to come together and defeat the communist threat that is driving America into the abyss. Put down your Mount Blanc pens, take off your ties, wrap them around your heads and get ready to rumble. As an American it is in your primal nature to rise to victory. As a human, it is in your DNA to want to lop off the head (figuratively or literally) of your opponent and savor the moment as it tumbles into the pond with a plop. Okay, maybe that is just my vision, maybe yours involves you on horseback, impaling hordes of whining liberals with your flaming spear, but that sounds like my vision again. Anyway, you have some vision of victory and what it should look like for you and if you don’t you better get one soon, before you find yourself in some liberal, Birkenstock wearing, communist manifesto reading, Marxist’s vision and are on the wrong side of “plop”. Those of you with Bic pens, no pens or collarless shirts, don’t worry, we need you and your vision of victory too. This is war of the political kind and there is no social hierarchy, there is only pure aggression, unrelenting hatred, and victory, unless of course you get dead (figuratively or literally). Either way, you are far less likely to become “plop” if you find your inner Machiavelli and allow him to rage within you, venturing forth to scare the crap out of those around you who did not know you have the warrior spirit. Never mind Tao or Sun Tzu. One was too philosophical to be a true warrior and the other one spent too much time thinking of ways to win without engaging the vile, putrid scum that is the enemy. We will do neither. We will engage the enemy any time, anywhere, on any street over any slight, perceived, real, or made up. We are warriors and we are ready to smite thy enemy back to the tofu counter from whence they came. For thee America, for thee, we shall create a river of soulless liberals flowing forth to thee, eternally watering the tree of liberty my country, for thee.
Our mission is vital to the success of freedom in America. Our parents and grandparents fought the communists and progressives so that we could be free. We owe those generations to come after us a life of liberty, not a life of servitude and serfdom. In order to do this, we must fight this war every day. When we hear a lie, be it in the paper, on the news, or from someone’s lips, we must/directly confront the lie with the truth. It is no longer acceptable to look the other way and ignore the lies of the left. But, this is not enough. No. We must use all of the weapons of war, conventional and guerrilla.
The left has infiltrated the conservative groups, including the GOP. They do this to gather information and develop strategies to counter what we do. We must do the same. Slap on some sandals, don’t shave, slip on a hemp shirt and go to an OfA meeting, become engaged and return to the bunker to plot the demise of those communist, anti-American fools. Camouflage is good too. Dress like Barney and show up at an SEIU meeting. Intel folks, it is critical to facilitate that plopping sound on a consistent basis. Intel leads to counter insurgency. Counter insurgency leads to victory.
While hanging out with the tofu eating, Birkenstock wearing communists, plant the seeds of doubt, become the Ministry of Disinformation. Lure your new found friends into uncomfortable situations, like schedule the next meeting, at a church; Invite them to your house for a neighborhood meeting and schedule your angry, gun toting, meat eating friends to come by at the same time. Sit back and watch, or just lure them into the garage and string them from the rafters, like piñata’s on Cinco de Mayo. Since you are associating with the scum of the earth, have some fun with it, schedule them to protest at a park where there is a biker rally or a veterans reunion. Good times.
I love the smell of victory, it smells like tears falling upon my boots from the soulless minions of Obama as the spirit of communism is exorcised from their gelatinous minds. Americans, do not shy away from this battle, if you do the regrets will haunt you for all the rest of eternity. Our obligation as patriot warriors is too not only defend America from these evil demons but to drive them back to the fiery depths of hell from which they came. I know some of you will be offended by this and think we should turn the other cheek. Go ahead, these evil beings will kick you in that one too. Make your choice, right now, make your decision, will you stand for America or will you be a slave of the left? There is a sign at the White House that reads, “Indentured Servants Wanted, Christians Only”.
There is an old acronym: A.I.D.A. Attention, do I have it, I believe I do. Interest. Are you interested? You better be, your freedom is on the line. Decision. Have you made your decision for Christ? And, Action. It is fight or walk time America. Will you be a free people, living in America, or will you be serfs in the Peoples Republic of Amerika? It is a time for action. It is up to you. The fate of a nation is in your hands. Will you join with me and walk side by side in the fields of freedom, or will you take the easy way and surrender yourself to the nation state that B. Hussein Obama is building? I would rather die a free man than live under the tyranny of an oppressive regime. If I am to leave a legacy, let it be one of freedom, not one of suffrage.

by John_Adams
May 10, 2010
What price would we give for ease, comfort and peace?
Would we gladly settle for our daily needs during the absense of a war or strife even if it meant we sacrificed “a little” Liberty to attain it?
Would we gladly sell some Liberty to “get along” with people who do not have America’s best interests at heart? Wht good does it do to “get along” IF it’s to “get along” into tyrrany?
How much Liberty are we ready to forfeit? As long as we have a job and things are going “fine” for us is it “o.k.” that taxes go up and the Government encroaches evermore into the Free Market and Private Sector?
What Price is too high to ask of America’s Citizenry?
Is a taxation rate that confiscates 50-70% of OUR EARNINGS “o.k.?
Is it really “fine” that the job market is only growing among the unions and government jobs?
Is it really “o.k.” that the banking, mortgage, auto & health care industry are under Government management and control?
What Price is too high?
For me the price was too high decades BEFORE I was born when The Left instituted the Income tax, Federal Reserve, the League/United Nations and all the Welfare, Entitlements and Public Works project.
When did the price get too high for YOU? Or are you still waiting on that bid?

by TerryCSA
April 28, 2010
Obama’s mouth is writing checks his arse can’t cash. This statement isn’t about money. It is about Mr. Mouthy, his ego, and his grandstanding rhetoric running off at the mouth with not enough stance to back his crap up.
First he attacks individuals, i.e.: Joe The Plumber, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, etc. Then he goes on attack of a news media organization (Fox News Channel) for not bowing down and endorsing his lying rhetoric. Next he attacks the auto industry, taking them over and firing their CEO (GM). Then he attacks a whole industry giving himself the authority to regulate pay in the private sector. Now he wants to take on a State. Specifically, the Great State of Arizona. Be careful Obozo, you are about to bite off more than you can chew.
Arizona’s new immigration law is the target of Obozo and his leftist Democrat Socialist Party (DSA). Since it is governments failure to protect our borders those States effected must take up the slack. This is what Arizona has done with a very well crafted piece of legislation that will withstand judicial review. And because Gov. Brewer and the legislature in Arizona stepped up to their responsibility in making its citizens more secure The State of Arizona is under attack by the Obozo administration, the DSA.
It is his intent to strip States of their 10th Amendment Rights. Yep, now we are all Tenthers. Which is an attack on all Americans. Several States are submitting similar legislation as we speak. Good! Since those who swore an Oath to protect and defend our country at the federal level have blatantly ignored their Oath and failed to protect the citizens of the United States.
Now, Obozo faces his biggest opposition yet. When you take on the several States of the United States you have a fight on your hands. We have been down this road before and, apparently, will go down this road again as a nation against a tyrannical regime. When you take on the several States you take on the American people. Obozo may or may not realize this. I don’t think he does.
When a State stands up for its citizens those citizens will stand behind their State. That wields a lot of power for a State. And when you have several States standing together those are insurmountable odds for a federal regime. We, the American people, will stand up even more when we know we have the support and allegiance of our State officials.
Obozo cannot combat that simple fact without jumping held long into a situation that will spell disaster for his regime. Unfortuantely, for him, he is too stupid, arrogant, immature and narcissistic to see his own future. We are not the Jews of Germany. We are not the Russians under Stalin. We are not the Chinese under Mao Tse Tung. We are AMERICANS!
As Americans we have a 233 year history of standing up to and defeating tyranny. We are strong and proud and our beliefs are firmly implanted in the tenets of the Constitution as it was written by our founding fathers. We will not go quietly in the dark of night, but will stand shoulder to shoulder and fight for our Rights, our country, and our future. Obozo doesn’t understand this concept and will bite off more than he can chew.

by Phyllis Schlafly
EagleForum.org
April 25, 2010
The news that the United States has become a two-class society, i.e., half of Americans pay federal income taxes and half don’t, has bounced around the media and shocked Americans. Most people had no knowledge of this appalling economic fact.
Even worse is the reality that 40 percent of Americans receive federal government handouts of cash and valuable benefits. Those handouts are financed by the people who do pay federal income taxes.
Those handouts create a tremendous bloc of people who depend on the government for their living expenses. The Tax Foundation reports that 20 percent of Americans now get 75 percent of their income from the federal government, and another 20 percent get 45 percent of their income from the government.
Obama’s Stimulus law will add nearly $800 billion in new means-tested welfare spending over the next decade. That means about $22,500 for every poor person in the United States, which will cost over $10,000 for each family that pays federal income taxes.
According to the Tax Foundation, married taxpayers pay three-fourths of all federal income taxes, whereas two-thirds of single parents who file as head-of-household pay no income tax at all. According to a Heritage Foundation report, taxpayers (mostly those who are married) will spend more than $300 billion providing welfare aid to single parents (mostly women).
The pundits like to divide Republicans into two classes, the fiscal conservatives and the so-called social conservatives, and pretend that their interests are different and mutually exclusive. In fact, the overwhelming reason for big government’s extravagant spending, which is properly railed against by limited-government conservatives, is the breakdown in our culture, which social conservatives have been battling for years.
If limited-government conservatives are dreaming of taking back America for fiscal sanity in the November elections, they should study how the unprecedented decline in marriage and the increase in illegitimacy are the major causes of our bloated government and its gigantic welfare spending.
In 2008, 40.6 percent of children born in the United States were born outside of marriage; that’s 1,720,000 children. This is not, as the media try to tell us, a teenage problem.
Only 7 percent of those illegitimate babies were born to girls under age 18, and over three-fourths were born to women over age 20. The problem is the collapse of marriage as the social institution responsible for the costs of the care of children.
The fiscal conservative faction of the Republican Party should also study why Republicans won their big Congressional majority in 1994, and what has happened since. The Democratic Party’s welfare boondoggle was a major reason for the Republican victory.
The wrong-headed welfare system started in the 1960s with Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society and his proclaimed war against poverty. The system should have been called the war against marriage.
LBJ’s Great Society set up a grossly immoral system whereby millions of people were taught that they had an “entitlement” to pick the pockets of law-abiding, taxpaying families if they met two conditions: they didn’t work, and they were not married to someone who did work. This destroyed the work ethic and subsidized illegitimacy by giving single moms money and scores of benefits such as welfare, food stamps, Medicaid, housing, utilities, WIC, and commodities.
LBJ’s welfare system undermined marriage and greatly increased all the social problems that flow from fatherless homes, such as drugs, sex, suicide, runaways, and school dropouts. The feminists rejoiced because all the cash went to women, thereby deconstructing what they called the oppressive patriarchy, and the liberals rejoiced because these handouts required more bureaucrats and higher taxes.
True to their Contract with America, the Republican Congress passed welfare reform in 1996. It was even signed by President Clinton, who admitted that it was time to “end welfare as we know it.”
The goal of Republican welfare reform was to help families move to employment and self-sufficiency and end long-term dependence on government assistance. This policy was repealed by Obama’s Stimulus, which will add more families to welfare dependency by paying bonuses to states that increase their welfare caseloads.
Obama’s real goal is a permanent expansion of the welfare system. Nothing promotes that goal as much as discouraging marriage and providing financial incentives to increase the number of single moms.
Single moms have become a fast-growing demographic group that demands a growing welfare industry. They look to Big Brother government (a.k.a. the Obama Administration) as a provider and the solution to their problems.
Even Obama’s Health Control Law contains a subsidy of thousands of dollars a year to unmarried couples and a penalty if they get married. That’s the goal of the Obama liberals: a society dependent on the government.

by Bill Turner
April 22, 2010
Why are so many Americans openly hostile to the Grand Old Party? The GOP has a long, strong, history of being the party of the people. While the Democratic party pretends to be the party of the people, they are the party of the Ku Klux Klan, big government, racism (through the use of entitlement programs to keep people down), inequity (by doing all it could to stop the civil rights movement) and eugenics (by using Planned Parenthood to remove those they see as less desirable from society). The public education system is partially to blame, as they do not teach the truth, nor encourage the search for it. The Ministry of Propaganda, aka, the state run media, is partially to blame, for painting the Democrats with white wash, while tarnishing the Republicans. But, the American people also take some of the blame, as the Democrats have ignored the party’s actions and the Republicans have not taken care to teach their illustrious history.
The Republican Party is responsible for the Transcontinental Railroad. The railroad was the result of a GOP convention and the man who drove the golden spike was a former governor of California. Leland Stanford went on to found Stanford University. Ever the advocates of education, the GOP passed the Land-Grant College Act, gifting federal land to states so that they could establish colleges and universities, such as Cornell, MIT, the University of Illinois and many others. As you can see, the Republican Party has a long established history of innovative transportation solutions and ensuring advanced educational opportunities for people.
The statue atop the capitol in Washington DC was made by a former slave, Philip Reid, a metal worker and in 1863, when the statue was placed there, it was the highest point in Washington DC. The statue, named Freedom, was made by Mr. Reid, a free man, compliments of the GOP. The Republican Party ended slavery in the District of Columbia by passing the Emancipation Act, which was signed into law by President Lincoln. Every Democrat in Congress voted against freeing the slaves that served them in DC. The first Hispanic governor in America was a Republican, Romualdo Pacheco, who then went on to serve three terms in the US House of Representatives. Once again, the GOP was and is the leader in equality in America. At the prompting of President Lincoln the RNC Chairman made this statement at the GOP Convention in 1864, “The party of which you, gentlemen, are the delegated and honored representatives, will fall far short of accomplishing its great mission, unless among its other resolves it shall declare for such an amendment of the Constitution as will positively prohibit African slavery in the United States.” The 13th amendment to the Constitution was passed by the Republicans, with almost unanimous opposition by the Democratic Party.
The 14th amendment to the Constitution, the one that provides due process and equal protection to Americans. The original purpose and intent of this bill was to protect the newly freed slaves in the south from their Democratic oppressors. Interestingly enough the bill was authored by the GOP, voted for by every Republican and voted against by every Democrat. Given the acts and actions of the Democratic Party over the past few years, it appears that their culture of oppression and discrimination continues to this day.
Republicans created Howard University, so that all free people would have the opportunity to further their education and advance themselves in America. In 1868 the GOP began to celebrate Memorial Day, to honor the fallen and in 1971 Republican President Richard Nixon signed into law Memorial Day as a national holiday. The 15th amendment, giving black people the right to vote, was passed by the Republicans, with almost all of the Democrats voting against it. Sadly, despite its passage, Democrats, for almost 100 years used intimidation, poll taxes, literacy tests and registration fraud, in order to try and suppress the right of non-whites to vote. Republican Justice Harlan wrote, in dissent from the Democrat dominated decision in Plessy v. Ferguson that, “Our Constitution is color blind and neither knows, nor tolerates classes among citizens”.
The Republican Party passed civil rights legislation that basically eliminated the Ku Klux Klan and protected those oppressed and attacked by the KKK, who could skip the Democrat/Klan controlled state courts and go straight to the federal court system with civil rights violations. Sadly the KKK was crippled but not eradicated and under the Democratic administration of Woodrow Wilson the Klan recreated itself.
Despite the allegations of the liberal media, the schools, Al Gore, and the Democratic Party, the GOP is environmentally friendly. In fact, it was under the guidance and supervision of the GOP that Yellowstone, Yosemite and other national parks were created.
In 1875 the Republican Party passed legislation banning discrimination in public places. Sadly, the Democratic Supreme Court struck down the legislation. The GOP wrote the 19th amendment and due to interference by the Democrats, it took over four decades for women to get the right to vote. Naturally it was the GOP who passed legislation making Native Americans citizens. Republicans fought for years to stop discrimination in the military and civil service but Democratic Presidents Roosevelt and Truman continued to block the measure, until the House and Senate were controlled by Republicans. The author of Brown v. The Board of Education was a Republican. It was the GOP that created the federal highway system, allowing for safer, more efficient travel, allowing the environment to flourish.
Republican President Eisenhower, despite efforts by John F. Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson ended racial segregation in Little Rock Arkansas. Yes, JFK, the media darling and Democratic role model took a stand in favor of racism. During the five terms under FDR and Truman, Democrats did not propose any civil rights legislation. It was the GOP who put an end to segregation and civil rights violations and they did it while the Democrats continually tried to filibuster and block the legislation.
President Reagan not only ended the Iran Hostage Crisis created by Democrat Jimmy Carter, he also restored the economy that had been crushed under the weight of Carters ineptitude. When President Reagan wasn’t saving Americans and the economy, he found time to end the cold war and bring down the Berlin wall. Republicans drafted and implemented the Contract with America. And, to this day, support school voucher programs because they work.
While the GOP has a long and glorious history of fighting for equality and freedom, the Democrats have a long and nefarious history of racism, slavery, civil rights violations and inequality. Add anti-Semites’ and economic failures Jimmy Carter and B. Hussein Obama to the mix and the Democratic Party is clearly the party of failure, oppression, racial discrimination and eugenics. America, why won’t you see through the fog of war created by the Democratic Party and their minions in the media? The Democratic Party stands for all that is wrong in the world and they are doing their best to bring that wrong to America. Defend America and walk away from all the Democratic Party is and represents.
