THE BATTLE AHEAD

Today you could say that we are up against the super liberals and the Obama administration. You would only be partly right. Let’s look at some recent events in history. Remember, the beginning of what is happening today started more than 50 years ago.

First a relative unknown named Jimmy Carter becomes President. Where did he come from? How did he become president?

Then we had Bill Clinton, early in his campaign it became known that he was fooling around, yet he got elected. How?

Now we have Obama, who does not have a clue, or does he?

How can these nobody’s with all the negative baggage attached become President of the greatest country ever? And more important, how do we defeat them and return our country to the ideals of our founders?

First we must identify all the groups that helped put these people in office, what they did, and how they did it. Without this we will be fighting the little battles without being able to bring our forces to bare to win the war. They so far have divided and conquered every group that has tried to stop them. How have they done this?

For us to have an impact and start winning we need to identify every liberal, left wing group, and the supposed groups that would save the planet from those that live here.

          Next identify their real agendas and the methods they are using to achieve them. From the internet, new articles, (remember the news media is part of the problem), to meetings and campus forums.

          Next we must understand that we are up against a large force that has been at this for a long time and have their system down to a science.

           Make no mistake, there is big money behind what is going on today, just look at who got the bailout money, bet you didn’t get any.

          If we are going to have a chance of winning our country back we need an overall strategy that can match theirs at all levels and then better them. And remember that their has to be a central command directing all these groups, calling the shots, and financing them, this is the head that must be exposed if we are to have a chance.

We have to open the people’s eyes to the lies in such a way that they wake up from the trance. Our people have fallen for the lies just like the German’s and the Russian’s and all the other people that have wanted something for nothing, or were in such despair that they believed anything was better than what they had.

THE NEW CIVIL WAR

BY KENNETH NADDEO

          Like the first Civil War fought in the United States the future direction of the country and the freedoms of its citizens hang on the outcome. The battle lines have been drawn, sides have been chosen, with two very distinct ideologies taking center stage. The commanders and their second in command have been chosen both with legions of followers. But unlike the first war this one will not be fought with guns and cannons on battle fields with horrendous lose of life. In stead it will be fought on center stage, in the media, the weapons being speeches and promises of a new future.

          On the one side are the super liberals lead by Senator Barack Hussein Obama and Senator Joseph Biden with their promise of Hope and Change. On the other side are the conservatives, lead by Senator John McCain and Governor Sara Palin with the promise of real leadership. America is in a desperate moment in time. The economy is in trouble, we are paying billions of dollars for oil to countries that hate us, people are losing their jobs and homes, and many cannot afford health care, food and utilities are climbing in price, all the while our faith in our government is being challenged like never before.

          Senator Obama wants to be the commander in chief of the greatest nation in the world but has never had to make command decisions, does not understand that the American way of life is under attack by radical Islam, won’t even talk to or acknowledge the men and women in uniform that defend his rights and freedoms, is more concerned about a terrorists rights than protecting the American people from attack, he does not know when life begins which makes me wonder if that means that life has no value and can be ended at will. He promises health care for all, but he does not tell you that his health plan will be mandatory, cost billions of dollars and force many businesses to close down or go off shore costing millions of jobs. And if you choose to go without you will pay a heavy penalty. His plan for foreign oil independence is to wait for alternative fuels and power generation to be developed, though no one knows when this will happen. He has no plan to ease the burden foreign oil has on the American economy and the people; in fact he does not want us to drill for more oil, or build new refineries, stating that this will not solve the problem.

Really?

I guess he does not know or care that in the 70’s we faced a similar problem with the rapid rise of the cost of oil, then suddenly, with the mere announcement of the opening of the north slope the price of oil fell dramatically, no, more drilling here will not solve the problem but it will buy us the time we need to bring alternative sources of fuel and power on line, and save us billions of dollars in the process, not to mention the boost to the economy.

           He wants us to believe he will create change for the better but chooses a Vice Presidential running mate that is an entrenched liberal in the Senate. Senator Biden also does not understand the war on terrorism or the threat to the American people. Both of them hope that the change will be that Democrats will have a total command of both the house and senate, the white house and have a liberal supreme court that does not rule based on the constitution but on liberal beliefs.

          Neither one of these men have ever had to put their lives on the line for any reason let alone their country or fellow citizens. Both argued and voted against the surge of troops in Iraq and wanted to withdraw in defeat and humility, forget that we were and are winning to the extent that our troops will soon be coming home victorious with honor. Their foreign diplomacy is, peace no matter the cost, without honor, have Israel live with a nuclear Iran, a country that has vowed to destroy Israel, every leader in the world that hates the U.S. has stated that they want Barack Hussein Obama to become President, his personal friends include former terrorists from the Black Panthers and Weather Underground, radical preachers and the leader of the Islamic movement in the United States.

          If they win in November, we the people lose, we lose our sovereignty, we lose our freedoms, our honor, and our place as the leader and protector of the free world. In short we will become a second rate nation from which there will be no recovery.

          Senator John McCain has chosen as his running mate and second in command Governor Sarah Palin, who until now was little known outside of Alaska. Unlike the Obamas’ both have always been proud of America and being Americans. Both are true patriots that support our troops, believe in a cause greater than self and the creativity and resourcefulness of the American people. Both understand the horrors of war and desire to avoid unnecessary conflicts, but when called upon, to provide our troops with every means possible to achieve decisive victory. They both understand that America is under attack from within our borders and from without by radical Islam. That we have an enemy that must be defeated before we lose everything.

          By choosing Palin to be his second in command McCain shows us how truly brilliant he is and his sincerity to change the way things are done in Washington. Both during their respective terms in public office have bucked what was popular in favor of what was right. Their plan is straight forward, save America, save the economy, save and create jobs here not abroad, end our reliance on foreign oil now, not some unknown time in the future, and provide affordable health insurance for all Americans.

          Senator McCain knows what it is like to lead when lives are on the line, he understands that 911 was merely the beginning of a war that we must win. That to insure peace you must be willing to fight, and die if necessary. That a nuclear Iran would create havoc around the world not just for Israel.

          Senator McCain and Governor Palin have a plan to eliminate our dependence on foreign oil, to drill now, create more refineries and in the process lower the burden on our economy while creating needed jobs and relief at the pump, like we did in the 70’s. At the same time proceed at top speed to create alternative sources of power and fuel that will not bankrupt our economy or food supply.

          They plan to provide the American people real affordable health insurance, and the means to pay for it, not mandated insurance and the controls that go with it. To relieve Americans from the burden of a tax system that discourages savings and investment, and creating incentives to encourage new businesses, expanding existing businesses and creating desperately needed jobs here.

          For me the choice is simple, a real proven leader and second in command not afraid to fight for freedom and right.

          That choice is Senator John McCain and Governor Sarah Palin.

WE THE PEOPLE

BY

KENNETH NADDEO

Is there anyone else out there that is tired of listening to the same promises and lies from our elected officials?

Today our country is in serious trouble and we are out of time to correct it. Our supreme court now almost at will rewrites the constitution based on some obscure theory of a living constitution, what a crock.

Our constitution and the Christian beliefs that our founders relied on are what has made us a great nation. Have we always done the right thing in foreign affairs? No. Have we always done the right thing with respect of treatment of all of our citizens? No. Have we been wrong at least as many times as we have been right? Yes. Do we need to make a drastic change in the way things are done, here and abroad? Yes.

But where to start? Here is what I would do if running for President right now.

WE THE PEOPLE need to take control over our lives, WE THE PEOPLE need to recall all of our elected officials and fire them for lying to us, for giving us a raw deal, for serving their self interests over those of WE THE PEOPLE, they caused this crises and WE THE PEOPLE must fix it. Public service was never meant to be a career with retirement benefits. There needs to be term limits on all political offices. Eliminate the retirement plan for all politicians. Send all the lobbyists home to find some other form of work that does not cost WE THE PEOPLE. WE THE PEOPLE need to take control of our natural resources and get to work providing the energy we need now, we need to buy us the time for newer technologies to come on line and not go broke in the process.

The President should not have to get the approval of congress for appointments to the cabinet. It’s the president’s advisers not congress they don’t get a say. As President I would roll back all laws passed in the last 50 years, and submit new laws to the constitution as written. If WE THE PEOPLE want a law that goes against the written constitution then WE THE PEOPLE need to call for an amendment to the constitution, not a law imposed by a court.

Also WE THE PEOPLE need to make it known that anyone living in the United States that does not love the country, the flag, support our armed forces, or like the words UNDER GOD need to leave, get the heck out. These are the things that made us great in spite of all our faults. We are made up of many diverse cultures that have come together and united as WE THE PEOPLE.

WE THE PEOPLE need to demand an end to the tax system forced upon us and have it replaced with a simple consumption tax so everyone pays based on spending not on income. This alone would eliminate the national debt in just a few years and create more jobs here than you can imagine.

WE THE PEOPLE need to call an end to the abuses of the welfare system. This was meant to help in times of need not to become a way of life. We need to help these people get jobs that make since and can support them and their families. If they refuse then they are dropped from the roles, those that refuse to work for their fair share, are a burden and financial and emotional drain on those of us that do our part.

WE THE PEOPLE can create a workable and affordable healthcare system without the government being involved taking half the money for administrative costs.

WE THE PEOPLE need to see to it that our elderly, infirm, and our veterans are taken care of. That those that have worked all their lives can retire in dignity and not have to worry about the cost of their healthcare.

WE THE PEOPLE need to get back to what works and works great.

WE THE PEOPLE have the power to change things, this is our right, our heritage, and like our founding fathers we must no longer allow the few to rule WE THE PEOPLE like mindless sheep.

The economy in the U.S. today is out of control as most people already know. The price of everything is going up. Everyone is being hurt and incomes cannot come close to keeping pace. The Democrats blame President Bush and the Republicans, the Republicans blame the Democrats, and everyone blames those nasty oil companies. The Federal Reserve seems helpless to correct the problem.

So what happened to create the current problem in our economy?

To understand what went wrong we have to go back to the 1970’s and the then oil crises. OPEC had been formed and having taken control of their oil fields imposed a reduction in production and an increase in the price per barrel of oil.

The world went into shock and the price of gas shot up almost over night. The Arab world had found a new control over the western countries and started down the road to immense wealth.

          Many economies around the world struggled, the U.S. had to take the Dollar off the Gold Standard, allowing it to float based on the strength of the economy, we simply did not have enough gold to cover the dollar debt.

          In 1977 the Prudhoe Bay oil field in Alaska came on line and the oil prices stabilized, the economy recovered, but the damage had been done and the warning that we were not in control was clear. Exploration and recovery of more oil would help but not solve the long term problem, many argued, plus fossil fuels are a polluter, other fuels needed to be developed. But once again we fell into a state of complacency, imposing restrictions on drilling in areas deemed environmentally sensitive.

          Meanwhile our imports of everything increased dramatically led by cheap economical foreign cars. Our balance of trade was out of control, the Federal Reserve continued to create more money and put this into the economy, and our congress had no plan to remove the threat posed by foreign oil. Had this been a military situation a plan would have been developed, put in place and carried out with urgency. After all we went from no technology, no infrastructure, and no plan, to landing a man on the moon, to accomplishment in less than 8 years from the moment that President Kennedy announced that the race was on.

          Today we find ourselves in dire straights, the value of the dollar has been greatly reduced, our imports are out of control, we export jobs, and we have no oil independency plan. In short we the consumer are getting the shaft. And now, to add insult to injury we are being asked to bail out the industries that congress forced into bad policies and loans.

          As part of the bailout plan there should be a hiring freeze on federal government employment and an annual reduction of 10% of federal employees. Also go back to these loans that the people made in good faith but due to loss of jobs or disabling injuries could no longer afford under their present terms, but just needed time to recover and rewrite them. Be creative, help the people stay in their homes and make bad paper good.

          What we need to do today is to free up drilling in every location in the nation and the continental shelf. This announcement by itself will send the message that we are done fooling around with OPEC. The time frame to bring these reserves on line is not a factor. Oil prices will drop, the Arab’s  reserves are being depleted and they will want to hang on as long as possible by driving the price down and again discouraging more oil production here.

          Stop paying farmers to not grow crops and have them instead grow sugar beets. This was a crop that we used to grow in abundance, and instead of using a food crop to make ethanol use sugar from the beets. This would give us 10 times the production amount of fuel from the same amount of raw product, not to mention a better fuel in the process. Also mandate that all new cars sold in this country be flex fuel and all gas stations have an ethanol pump. We need look no further than Brazil for the proof of this concept. Along with this, implement a national program to collect and convert used vegetable cooking oil into bio diesel. A simple reward and benefit program put into place to reward all citizens for their contributions, like credits to be used for purchases of other commodities will produce an abundance of bio diesel, reducing the amount needed from oil.

Next we must cut all imports to a point of balance with exports. This move will help to stabilize the dollar around the world, as the dollar gains strength the cost of imported goods including oil drops. Simple buying power, stronger dollar equals lower costs. If companies complain about this they can come here, build plants, hire Americans, reinvest their profits in the American economy, and become part of the solution instead of the problem

          Next develop a Fed monetary policy that makes sense, only allow the congress to go into debt in an amount equal to the value of our exports over the cost of imports.

          Next on my list is eliminating the income tax system and all other federal taxes on capital, estate, interest, basically all federal taxes at every level and replace it with a consumption tax, the Fair Tax, which taxes only retail sales. Pay tax to the federal government on services and retail purchases only, with this form of tax everyone pays a fair share, you, me, the illegals, the tourists, the rich and poor. This would be a real permanent economic stimulus plan, putting real spending power in the hands of the people. There would no longer be a problem with funding Social Security, Welfare, Medicare and Medicade, we would even have enough left over to give aid to families for health care. All programs would be fully funded, jobs and production would increase, with no longer an incentive to move companies and jobs and capital off shore. Capital would expand with the influx of companies and jobs.

          All of these things must be done now, collectively, this would send the message to the world that we are taking back our place as the strongest economic nation in the world, and force the Arab nations to negotiate on our terms.
