I&lt;br /&gt; have contacted the Department of Homeland Security in an&lt;br /&gt; effort to determine the process for becoming an illegal&lt;br /&gt; alien, and they referred me to you.&lt;br /&gt; My primary reason for wishing to change my status from U.S.&lt;br /&gt; Citizen to illegal alien stems from the bill which was&lt;br /&gt;recently passed by the Senate and for which you voted. If&lt;br /&gt; my understanding of this bill&#39;s provisions is accurate,&lt;br /&gt; as an illegal alien who has been in the United States for&lt;br /&gt; five years, all I need to do to become a citizen is to pay&lt;br /&gt; a $2,000 fine and income taxes for three of the last five&lt;br /&gt; years. I know a good deal when I see one, and I am anxious&lt;br /&gt; to get the process started before everyone figures it out.&lt;br /&gt; Simpl y put, those of us who have been here legally have&lt;br /&gt; had to pay taxes every year, so I&#39;m excited about the&lt;br /&gt; prospect of avoiding two years of taxes in return for&lt;br /&gt; paying a $2,000 fine. Is there any way that I can apply to&lt;br /&gt; be illegal retroactively? This would yield an excellent&lt;br /&gt; result for me and my family because we paid heavy taxes in&lt;br /&gt; 2004 and 2005.&lt;br /&gt; Additionally, as an illegal alien, I could begin using the&lt;br /&gt; local emergency room as my primary health care provider.&lt;br /&gt; Once I have stopped paying premiums for medical insurance,&lt;br /&gt; my accountant figures I could save almost $10,000 a year.&lt;br /&gt; Another benefit in gaining illegal status would be that my&lt;br /&gt; daughter would receive preferential treatment relative to&lt;br /&gt; her law school applications, as well as &#39;in-state&#39;&lt;br /&gt; tuition rates for many colleges throughout the United State&lt;br /&gt; s for my son.&lt;br /&gt; Lastly, I understand that illegal status would relieve me&lt;br /&gt; of the burden of renewing my driver&#39;s license and&lt;br /&gt; making those burdensome car insurance premiums. This is&lt;br /&gt; very important to me given that I still have college age&lt;br /&gt; children driving my car.&lt;br /&gt; If you would provide me with an outline of the process to&lt;br /&gt; become illegal (retroactively, if possible) and copies of&lt;br /&gt; the necessary forms, I would be most appreciative.&lt;br /&gt;   Thank you for your assistance.&lt;br /&gt;   Your Loyal Constituent,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Donald Ruppert&lt;br /&gt; Burlington, IA&lt;br /&gt; Get your Forms (NOW)!!!&lt;br /&gt; Call your Internal Revenue Service 1-800-289-1040.&lt;br /&gt; Please pass this on to your friends so they can save on&lt;br /&gt; this great offer.</description><link>http://americavotes08.blogspot.com/2008/07/become-illegal-aliens.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2341226399969318207.post-3461607395300003651</guid><pubDate>Sat, 19 Jul 2008 09:59:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-07-19T03:00:03.898-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">The Media on Obama</category><title>The Obama Media</title><description>THE FROG THEORY &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;If you drop a frog in boiling water he will leap right out.  If you slowly heat the water he will be content until it&#39;s too late to get out. That is exactly how history works.  It moves slowly and we never really see any danger until it&#39;s too late. &lt;br /&gt;Remember how suppressed workers were before unions came along?  The unions leveled th e playing field.  Unfortunately, over a long period of time the pendulum swung too far.  Slowly, businesses and factories closed and jobs left the country.  We were comfortable and didn&#39;t see the change coming. We blamed everyone except ourselves for what happened.  We weren&#39;t alert to how slow things change over time. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;World War II, and the Korean War, demonstrated how powerful a united nation could be.  Our nation, and our families, were united.  The father was the head of the family and the President was the head of the nation. Both were highly respected.  We were content and happy. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;We were good at fighting a hot war but we were unprepared to fight a cold war with the communists in the 50&#39;s. They knew they couldn&#39;t change us but they didn&#39;t care.  Their philosophy was to wait it out and capture the &lt;br /&gt;minds of our children.  They loaded our colleges with many of their professors and waited.  It didn&#39;t take long to see the results. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;The 60&#39;&#39;s ushered in the radicals, drug culture, student protesters, and the Vietnam War.  The aim of the cold war was to divide and conquer. They divided our families and the nation.  The secret to defeating a polite and &lt;br /&gt;respectful people is to scream.  The louder and longer you scream the better your chance of winning.  Radicals are masters at this form of attack.  They know if you constantly scream and repeat a lie it will eventually become the truth. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;The media, and Hollywood , hammered us with hate America themes and stories. They took God out of our schools, our service men, and women, were jeered, cursed, and spit on.  Even the people, who latter wanted to become their President, thrashed them.  We lost our first War in history. There was no hero&#39;s homecoming for our fighting men and women. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;The Reverend King, who was raised in the old school, peacefully changed the race issue and united the people.  When he died the new breed of leaders like the Jesse Jackson&#39;s, Lewis Farakon,&#39;s Al Sharpton&#39;s, and Rev. &lt;br /&gt;Wright&#39;s put a lid on his efforts and turned racism into a money making machine. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Corporations were green-mailed by threats of protests, product boycotts, or endless lawsuits.  Every issue, large or small, became a race issue. The public recoiled in fear of being called a racist.  Their voices were silenced because one word could cost you a career, get you fired, or get you sued. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Even politicians buckled under to the pressure.  The Florida legislature issued a formal apology for having slavery 200 years ago.  They were thanked by being asked for compensation.  There is no end in sight for this kind of nonsense .  America didn&#39;t capture slaves and bring them to America .  Their own people sold them to slave traders from several nations.  This knowledge doesn&#39;t stop the screamers.  History is what it is and you can&#39;t change it. There have been many tragic events in history. You acknowledge them and move on. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;They divided our nation into two separate Americas .  We now have Americans, and African-Americans, although Africa has nothing to do with being an American.  You can be one or the other but not both.  You are what you were born to be.  You do not subordinate our country to any foreign nation.  It&#39;s equivalent to flying the African flag above the Stars and Stripes.  If you hyphenate two countries America always comes first. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;This election year could be the turning point in our history because the frog theory has come into play.  It&#39;s time to step back and look at how the country has slowly changed since the cold war started.  Don&#39;t get caught up in all the hype. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;George McGovern was the first Presidential candidate to test the waters with college students.  The Clinton &#39;s played a big role in his campaign. It was the worst campaign ever run.  He was crushed in the election. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Step two was to infiltrate all the information vehicles such as radio, newspapers, magazines, TV and movies.  They were quite successful at that. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Jimmy Carter was the first President to demonstrate the leadership skills of the far left.  Weak military, high taxes, runaway inflation, 19% mortgage rates, and plain incompetence ended his career in Washington . Iran, a small country at the time, took American hostages and kicked sand in our face.  By negotiating from weakness Carter could not get the hostages released. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;The big benefit of the Carter years is that they were followed by the Reagan years.  The nation got a clear look at the difference between a weak nation and a strong nation.  Every student should know this difference.  When Ronald Reagan took over the hostages were quickly released , taxes were lowered, inflation dropped, mortgage rates dropped, and the military was strengthened.  Russia quickly waved the white flag and waited for another Democrat term. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Clinton took over Carters uncompleted social programs.  He weakened the military and tried to pass large government programs.  An Intern derailed his Presidency.  While he was tied up with his personal problems his lawyers ran the country.  He passed up three opportunities to take out Osama Bin Laden.  This eventuall y cost us the loss of our Twin Towers , thousands of American lives, and got us involved in a war with Iraq . &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;By the end of his term the left had captured a large share of the media and it flexed its muscle in 2000.  The hate Bush campaign got off to a roaring start.  The brainwashing theory of repeating the same story over and over again was launched. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;There were endless stories about our evil nation and its President. Top-secret plans were leaked to the press and printed for the entire world to see.  Hollywood cranked out documentaries about the evil Bush administration and our evil military. They laid the groundwork for the next election.  The ACLU flooded the courts with lawsuits and the Democrat party became a law firm.  Almost every incumbent, or his or her spouse, is a lawyer. They now have the perfect candidate because they can squash criticism by playing the race card.  If you don&#39;t like Obama, or criticize him, you are a racist.  They can hide his inexperience and background by turning him into a rock star and singing change and hope.  They don&#39;t tell us what kind of change, or how it will be done, only that you should hope for the best.  By keeping the hype going they don&#39;t have to put anything of substance on the table. The only thing we really know about Obama is that his wife h as never been proud to be an American.  They want us to believe that his liberal college professors, Rev. Pfleger, his ties to radicals Bill Ayer and Lewis Farakon, and listening to the Rev. Wright&#39;s hate talks for 20 years,had no influence on his thinking.  If they didn&#39;t, then who did? He wasn&#39;t in business and didn&#39;t see fit to serve his country.  These people launched his political career and their organizations received earmarks in return for their campaign donations and political help. They must have had some influence. Rev. Wright&#39;s church received over $15 million. That&#39;s only one small local church.  Think on a national scale. The change being promoted is a change back to the Carter years.  It started in 2006 when the lawyer party took over.  There have been endless lawsuits and investigations in retaliati on for the Clinton years.  It keeps the lawyers busy but does nothing for the economy.  The economy has been in a downward s piral since they took over. Returning to the Carter yea rs of high taxes, high inflation, and a weak military is not the change we are looking for.  We cannot cower to a bunch of crazies whose only goal in life is to kill us. The old sage&#39;s (over 50) will have to play a big role in this election. The young people simply don&#39;t know what the aged know.  The advantage of aging is the knowledge you accumulated.  You know what United States means.  You know what the seldom-heard word respect means.  You know how wonderful freedom and independence is.  You know the difference between a strong and a weak nation; and you know what it takes to keep it strong. You know history because you have lived it. Although the old guard is dying off, and getting too tired to fight, they have to muster one more charge.  If they don&#39;t, our children, and grandchildren, will never know the joy and freedom that is the bedrock of our country.  The heat is slowly bein g turned up and the water is getting hot.  The old frogs better start jumping before it&#39;s too late.</description><link>http://americavotes08.blogspot.com/2008/07/obama-media.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2341226399969318207.post-2080301693405732493</guid><pubDate>Sat, 12 Jul 2008 14:40:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-07-12T07:41:16.112-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Obama On Abortion</category><title>Obama On Partial Birth Abortions</title><description>In 2001, Illinois state Sen. Patrick O’Malley introduced three bills to help such babies. One required a second physician to be present at the abortion to determine if a surviving baby was viable. Another gave the parents or a public guardian the right to sue to protect the baby’s rights. A third, almost identical to the federal Born Alive Infant Protection Act President Bush signed in 2002, simply said a “homo sapiens” wholly emerged from his mother with a “beating heart, pulsation of the umbilical cord or definite movement of voluntary muscles” should be treated as a “‘person,’ ‘human being,’ ‘child’ and ‘individual.’”&lt;br /&gt;Stanek testified about these bills in the Illinois Senate Judiciary Committee, where Obama served. She told me this week he was “unfazed” by her story of holding the baby who survived an induced labor abortion.&lt;br /&gt;On the Illinois Senate floor, OBAMA was the only senator to SPEAK AGAINST the baby-protecting bills. He voted “present” on each, effectively the same as a “no</description><link>http://americavotes08.blogspot.com/2008/07/obama-on-partial-birth-abortions.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2341226399969318207.post-6654337844371612721</guid><pubDate>Tue, 27 May 2008 22:52:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-05-27T15:54:03.470-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Veteran&#39;s Thoughts on Obama</category><title>Veteran&#39;s Thoughts On Obama</title><description>I read this post and I wanted to share it with you. Please pass this around to your family and friends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;tnflash19736:05PMMay 27th 2008&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&#39;m a veteran and in reading some of the republican responses, which I agree on, I have to comment on one comment about taking on Iran. First off ALL soldiers are volunteers. We weren&#39;t drafted nor were we made to go anywhere. We voluteered when we raised our hand and swore to DEFEND this country from terrorists foreign or domestic. We fight so you Obama supporters can run your damn mouths and be negative about what we&#39;re doing. You speak negatively about what we&#39;re doing and you want us to retreat before we finish our job which if we do you&#39;ll pay for dearly. Bottomline is when you retreat the bad guy gains the ground. The country wasn&#39;t made free without a fight and in continuing the freedom we volunteered to continue the fight. &lt;br /&gt;Obama turned his back on the flag and to me that speaks volumes. There&#39;s no excuse for it and it&#39;s a terrorist offense in my book. He won&#39;t sing the Star Spangled Banner because it&#39;s offensive so I ask you won&#39;t it be offensive to you when he raises a muslim backed flag atop the White House? Then you&#39;ll call on the volunteers to do something. Quit running your mouth about something you know nothing about. Iran is a threat and to them we are infidels whom they want nothing more than to kill. I say get them before they get us.&lt;br /&gt;McCain is a vet that has seen hell and lived it. He lives by our code of never leaving a man behind. Obama would certainly forget us and you too. Let us do our job so that you can keep protesting. As long as you&#39;re able to do that then we know we&#39;re doing our jobs!!!</description><link>http://americavotes08.blogspot.com/2008/05/veterans-thoughts-on-obama.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2341226399969318207.post-8400152544474106346</guid><pubDate>Tue, 27 May 2008 02:26:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-05-26T19:27:01.004-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Obama</category><title>The Best Obama Video</title><description>PLEASE pass this video on to everyone you know!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width=&quot;518&quot; height=&quot;419&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;flashvars&quot; value=&quot;videos=http://media.eyeblast.org/resources/2036.flv&amp;xmlfile=http://www.eyeblast.tv/Public/xml/NoThumbs.xml&amp;thumb=Http://media.eyeblast.org/thumbs/1741.jpg&amp;auto=0&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://www.eyeblast.tv/public/FlashPlayerLight.swf&quot; flashvars=&quot;videos=http://media.eyeblast.org/resources/2036.flv&amp;xmlfile=http://www.eyeblast.tv/Public/xml/NoThumbs.xml&amp;thumb=Http://media.eyeblast.org/thumbs/1741.jpg&amp;auto=0&quot; width=&quot;518&quot; height=&quot;419&quot; wmode=&quot;window&quot; allowScriptAccess=&quot;sameDomain&quot; allowFullScreen=&quot;true&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;</description><link>http://americavotes08.blogspot.com/2008/05/best-obama-video.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2341226399969318207.post-979906647525936862</guid><pubDate>Mon, 26 May 2008 23:41:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-05-26T16:41:36.383-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Obama on race</category><title>Obama&#39;s Own Words On Race</title><description>Subject: Obama&#39;s words &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Obama&#39;s OWN WORDS !! - A Quick MUST READ !! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; This guy wants to be our President and control our government.

And white.&#39; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From Dreams of My Father: &#39;It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and get name names.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From Dreams of My Father: &#39;I never emulate white men  and brown men whose &lt;br /&gt; fates didn&#39;t speak to my own. It was into my father&#39;s image, the black  man, son of Africa , that I&#39;d packed all the attributes I sought in  myself, the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela.&#39; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From Audacity of Hope: &#39;I will stand with the Muslims should the  political winds shift in an ugly direction.&#39;</description><link>http://americavotes08.blogspot.com/2008/05/obamas-own-words-on-race.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2341226399969318207.post-6716506046166074278</guid><pubDate>Fri, 23 May 2008 19:23:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-05-23T12:26:16.818-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Obama</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">What Others Think Of Obama</category><title>Montana Rancher Takes On Obama</title><description>A friend of mine sent me this. I thought you would enjoy reading this one. Sounds like this Rancher is a wise man!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old Montana rancher, &lt;br /&gt;whose hand was caught in a gate while working cattle, the doctor &lt;br /&gt;struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got &lt;br /&gt;around to Obama and his bid to be our President.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;  The old rancher said, &#39;Well, ya know, Obama is a &#39;post turtle&#39;.&#39; &lt;br /&gt;Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a &#39;post &lt;br /&gt;turtle&#39; was. The old rancher said, &#39;When you&#39;re driving down a &lt;br /&gt;country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle &lt;br /&gt;balanced on top, that&#39;s a &#39;post turtle&#39;.&#39; The old man saw a puzzled &lt;br /&gt;look on the doctor&#39;s face, so he continued to explain.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;  &#39;You know he didn&#39;t get up there by himself, he doesn&#39;t belong up &lt;br /&gt;there, he doesn&#39;t know what to do while he is up there, and you &lt;br /&gt;just want to help the dumb ass get down.&#39;</description><link>http://americavotes08.blogspot.com/2008/05/montana-rancher-takes-on-obama.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2341226399969318207.post-77983442332580705</guid><pubDate>Wed, 21 May 2008 01:22:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-05-20T18:22:52.444-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Comments On Obama</category><title>Let&#39;s Look At Obama</title><description>Gary Boggess10:47AMMay 20th 2008&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been searching the web for insight concerning the next &lt;br /&gt;presidential election. In my searching and reading... it was EASY to &lt;br /&gt;figure out why I didn&#39;t want Hillary in the White House because I was &lt;br /&gt;able to examine REAL substance concerning her current views and &lt;br /&gt;positions, and weigh the evidence of &quot;what she said&quot; with &quot;what she &lt;br /&gt;actually did&quot; in her past political performance. Without going into &lt;br /&gt;detail, I was able to discern WHAT she stands for, and form my &lt;br /&gt;responses to it. I was also satisfied to follow the same process with &lt;br /&gt;McCain. BOTH have a past I can examine. BOTH (on most issues), are &lt;br /&gt;fairly clear about who they are and what they&#39;d do IF elected. As a &lt;br /&gt;result... I have declared myself a political orphan this election. I &lt;br /&gt;have concluded that THIS election is a sham of unprecedented &lt;br /&gt;dimensions. Here we are in the midst of the worst problems we&#39;ve ever &lt;br /&gt;faced, and we&#39;ve got THREE JOKERS running for president.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So... what&#39;s left? Obama. Well I&#39;ve been watching Obama. And although I &lt;br /&gt;think he&#39;s a very good oratator, speaker, presenter and he LOOKS like &lt;br /&gt;someone who has it together, I am stumped to explain to myself HOW this &lt;br /&gt;man could sit in a clearly racist church for 20 years. I mean... here&#39;s &lt;br /&gt;a guy who is offering us CHANGE. He&#39;s also offering LEADERSHIP... and &lt;br /&gt;he claims that he&#39;s qualified to make critical decisions for the &lt;br /&gt;country. But after hearing Rev. Wright&#39;s hate- teach, Obama just sat &lt;br /&gt;there for TWENTY YEARS! It doesn&#39;t take a wrecking ball for me to see; &lt;br /&gt;that if Obama couldn&#39;t pick his ass up and leave that church 19 1/2 &lt;br /&gt;years ago, that he is no leader. He didn&#39;t CHANGE his church &lt;br /&gt;affiliations. He didn&#39;t CHANGE his racist political associations. He &lt;br /&gt;didn&#39;t CHANGE his support for men who OBVIOUSLY supported and even &lt;br /&gt;awarded Louis Farakhan, an anti-semite, anti-white racist &quot;Man of the &lt;br /&gt;Year&quot; 2007! And Obama didn&#39;t CHANGE ANYTHING until the media &amp; public &lt;br /&gt;opinion FORCED him to. And I&#39;m sorry... but that nice little &quot;B&amp;W &lt;br /&gt;racial&quot; speech he gave in Philadelphia just didn&#39;t FIX IT for me. WORDS &lt;br /&gt;mean things... and if they do... DEEDS precede and follow. As far as &lt;br /&gt;I&#39;m concerned, Obama is 19 1/2 years too late.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So... as a result... I have been looking for reasons WHY people believe &lt;br /&gt;in this man who obviously doesn&#39;t BELIEVE HIS OWN SPEAK!!! Because if &lt;br /&gt;he did, the above two paragraphs wouldn&#39;t need written.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been looking for substance concerning Obama&#39;s claims for CHANGE. &lt;br /&gt;And I can&#39;t come up with substantive comparable&#39;s to Hitlary or McLame. &lt;br /&gt;Obama offers us a collection of empty political rhetoric tantamount to &lt;br /&gt;political vapor-ware! No Substance. No history to support it. Nothing &lt;br /&gt;but ambiguous WORDS. I&#39;m sorry... being a good speaker isn&#39;t a &lt;br /&gt;qualification for being a leader, much less a President!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I searched the web, and I &quot;GET IT&quot; that Obama is offering CHANGE. BUT &lt;br /&gt;WHAT CHANGE? Obama has yet to define it. I can&#39;t define it. Nobody can. &lt;br /&gt;Promises are one thing. HOW is another. I emailed a few of my black &lt;br /&gt;friends in Ohio... and they told me they&#39;re as lost as I am concerning &lt;br /&gt;Obama.

We&#39;re in a year of firsts in this presidential election: the first viable woman candidate; the first viable African-American candidate; and, a candidate who is the first frontrunning fr! eedom f ighter over 70. The next president of America will be a first. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;We won&#39;t truly be in an election of firsts, however, until we judge every candidate by where they stand. We won&#39;t arrive where we should be until we no longer talk about skin color or gender.  Now that Barack Obama steps to the front of the Democratic field, we need to stop talking about his race, and start talking about his policies and his politics.   &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;The reality is this: Though the Democrats will not have a nominee until August, unless Hillary Clinton drops out, Mr. Obama is now the frontrunner, and its time America takes a closer and deeper look at him. &lt;br /&gt;Some pundits are calling him the next John F. Kennedy. He&#39;s not. He&#39;s the next George McGovern. And it&#39;s time people learned the facts. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;Because the tr uth is that Mr Obama is the single most liberal senator in the entire U.S. ! Senate. He is more liberal than Ted Kennedy, Bernie Sanders, or Mrs. Clinton.    Never in my life have I seen a presidential frontrunner whose rhetoric is so far removed from his record. Walter Mondale promised to raise our taxes, and he lost. George McGovern promised military weakness, and he lost. Michael Dukakis promised a liberal domestic agenda, and he lost. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;Yet Mr. Obama is promising all those things, and he&#39;s not behind in the polls. Why? Because the press has dealt with him as if he were in a be auty pageant.  Mr. Obama talks about getting past party, getting pa! st red and blue, to lead the United States of America . But let&#39;s look at the more defined strokes of who he is underneath this superficial &#39;beauty.&#39; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Start with national security, since the president&#39;s most important duties are as commander-in-chief. Over the summer, Mr. Obama talked about invading Pakistan, a nation armed with nuclear weapons; meeting without preconditions with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who vows to destroy Israel and create another Holocaust; and Kim Jong II, who is murdering and starving his people, but emphasized that the nuclear option was off the table against terrorists - something no president has ever taken off the table since we created nuclear weapons in the 1940s. Even Democrats ! who hav e worked in national security condemned all of those remarks. Mr. Obama is a foreign-policy novice who would put our national security at risk. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;Next, consider economic policy. For all its faults, our health care system is the strongest in the world. And free trade agreements, created by Bill Clinton as well as President Bush, have made more goods more affordable so that even people of modest means can live a life that no one imagined a generation ago Yet Mr Obama promises to rais e taxes on &#39;the rich.&#39; How to fix Social Security? Raise taxes. How to fix Medicare? Raise taxes. Prescription drugs? Raise taxes. Free college? Raise taxes Socialize medicine? Raise taxes. His! soluti on to everything is to have government take it over. Big Brother on steroids, funded by your paycheck. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;Finally, look at the social issues. Mr. Obama had the audacity to open a stadium rally by saying, &#39;All praise and glory to God!&#39; but says that Christian leaders speaking for life and marriage have &#39;hijacked&#39; - hijacked - Christianity. He is pro-partial birth abortion, and promises to appoint Supreme Court justices who will rule any restriction on it unconstitutional. He espouses the abortion views of Margaret Sanger, one of the early advocates of racial cleansing. His spiritual leaders endorse homosexual marriage, and he is moving in that direction. In Ill inois, he refused to vote against a statewide ban - ban - on all handguns in the state. These are radical left, Hollywood , and San Francis co values, not Middle America values. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;The real Mr. Obama is an easy target for the general election. Mrs. Clinton is a far tougher opponent. But Mr. Obama could win if people don&#39;t start looking behind his veneer and flowery speeches. His vision of &#39;bringing America together&#39; means saying that those who disagree with his agenda for America are hijackers or warmongers. Uniting the country means adopting his liberal agenda and abandoning any conflicting beliefs &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;But right now everyone is talking about how eloquent of a speaker he is and - yes - they&#39;re talking about his race. Those should never be the factors on which we base our choice for president. Mr. Obama&#39;s radical agenda sets him far outside the American mainstream, to the left of Mrs. Clinton. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;It&#39;s time to talk about the real Barack Obama. In an election of firsts, let&#39;s first make sure we elect the! person who is qualified to be our president in a nuclear age during a global civilizational war.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Subject: Kind of scary, wouldn&#39;t you think&lt;br /&gt;Remember--God is good, and is in time, on time--every time.&lt;br /&gt;According to The Book of Revelations the anti-christ is: &lt;br /&gt;The anti-christ will be a man, in his 40s, of MUSLIM descent, who will deceive the nations with persuasive language, and have a MASSIVE Christ-like appeal...the prophecy says that people will floc k to him and he will promise false hope and world peace, and when he is in power, will destroy everything.    Is it OBAMA?? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I STRONGLY URGE each one of you to copy this and post it and email it as many times as you can!  Each opportunity that you have to send it to a friend or media outlet..do it! &lt;br /&gt;If you think I am crazy..I&#39;m sorry but I refuse to take a chance on the &#39;unknown&#39; candidate.</description><link>http://americavotes08.blogspot.com/2008/05/ken-blackwell-on-obama.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2341226399969318207.post-6201689643515065116</guid><pubDate>Sun, 11 May 2008 11:46:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-05-11T04:50:01.491-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Obama On Social Security</category><title>Obama Lies On Social Secutiry</title><description>This is just my 2 cents but I&#39;m curious why Obama says that &quot;people like myself (Obama) are paying a little bit more&quot;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a member of the legislative branch of our goverment (Senators and members of the House of Representatives) they do not pay anything into the Social Security trust fund. Not a single penny of their salary is subject to the social security tax. They have a completely separate retirement fund that is 100 percent funded by the taxpayers (that would be people like you and me) and the cost to them is nothing. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How dare he use himself as an example of someone who would be willing to contribute more of his salary to Social Security because despite a six digit income, these people contribute zip. It&#39;s very easy for them to take action on raising this tax because its a tax that they don&#39;t pay so raising it doesn&#39;t affect their bottom line at all. It only affects us taxpayers but then again when did any of these elected officials really care about us (I mean really care in us, not just pander to get our vote).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don&#39;t you find it interesting that we are all forced to pay into a fund that none of the Governement employees use? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don&#39;t know about you, but I can&#39;t afford one more cent of taxes, period!</description><link>http://americavotes08.blogspot.com/2008/05/obama-lies-on-social-secutiry.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2341226399969318207.post-9128440704168839833</guid><pubDate>Sat, 10 May 2008 11:03:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-05-10T04:04:36.318-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Obama  wants talk on race</category><title>Obama Wants A Converstation about Race</title><description>by Patrick J. Buchanan&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Barack says we need to have a conversation about race in America.?&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Fair enough. But this time, it has to be a two-way conversation. White America&lt;br /&gt;&gt; needs to be heard from, not just lectured to.&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; This time, the Silent Majority needs to have its convictions, grievances and&lt;br /&gt;&gt; demands heard. And among them are these:&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; First, America has been the best country on earth for black folks. It was here&lt;br /&gt;&gt; that 600,000 black people, brought from Africa in slave ships, grew into a&lt;br /&gt;&gt; community of 40 million, were introduced to Christian salvation, and reached the&lt;br /&gt;&gt; grest levels of freedom and prosperity blacks have ever known.&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Wright ought to go down on his knees and thank God he is an American.&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Second, no people anywhere has done more to lift up blacks than white Americans.&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Untold trillions have been spent since the &#39;60s on welfare, food stamps, rent&lt;br /&gt;&gt; supplements, Section 8 housing, Pell grants, student loans, legal services,&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Medicaid, Earned Income Tax Credits and poverty programs designed to bring the&lt;br /&gt;&gt; African-American community into the mainstream.&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Governments, businesses and colleges have engaged in discrimination against&lt;br /&gt;&gt; white folks -- with affirmative action, contract set-asides and quotas -- to&lt;br /&gt;&gt; advance black applicants over white applicants.&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Churches, foundations, civic groups, schools and individuals all over America&lt;br /&gt;&gt; have donated time and money to support soup kitchens, adult education, day care,&lt;br /&gt;&gt; retirement and nursing homes for blacks.&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; We hear the grievances. Where is the gratitude??&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Barack talks about new &#39;ladders of opportunity&#39; for blacks.&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Let him go to Altoona? and Johnstown, and ask the white kids in Catholic schools&lt;br /&gt;&gt; how many were visited lately by Ivy League recruiters handing out scholarships&lt;br /&gt;&gt; for &#39;deserving&#39; white kids.?&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Is white America really responsible for the fact that the crime and inca&lt;br /&gt;&gt; rceration rates for African-Americans are seven times those of white America? Is&lt;br /&gt;&gt; it really white America &#39;s fault that illegitimacy in the African-American&lt;br /&gt;&gt; community has hit 70 percent and the black dropout rate from high schools in&lt;br /&gt;&gt; some cities has reached 50 percent?&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Is that the fault of white America or, first and foremost, a failure of the&lt;br /&gt;&gt; black community itself?&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; As for racism, its ugliest manifestation is in interracial crime, and especially&lt;br /&gt;&gt; interracial crimes of violence. Is Barack Obama aware that while white criminals&lt;br /&gt;&gt; choose black victims 3 percent of the time, black criminals choose white victims&lt;br /&gt;&gt; 45 percent of the time?&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Is Barack aware that black-on-white rapes are 100 times more common than the&lt;br /&gt;&gt; reverse, that black-on-white robberies were 139 times as common in the first&lt;br /&gt;&gt; three years of this decade as the reverse?&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; We have all heard ad nauseam from the Rev. Al about Tawana Brawley, the Duke&lt;br /&gt;&gt; rape case and Jena. And all turned out to be hoaxes. But about the epidemic of&lt;br /&gt;&gt; black assaults on whites that are real, we hear nothing.&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Sorry, Barack, some of us have heard it all before, about 40 years and 40&lt;br /&gt;trillion tax dollars ago.</description><link>http://americavotes08.blogspot.com/2008/05/obama-wants-converstation-about-race.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2341226399969318207.post-3335463056245334544</guid><pubDate>Thu, 08 May 2008 15:33:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-05-08T08:34:22.669-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Obama  Lies</category><title>Obama Lies, Lies and More Lies!</title><description>&lt;object width=&quot;425&quot;

And the Anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the&lt;br /&gt;bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial and&lt;br /&gt;less bellicose. I like the song &#39;I&#39;d Like to Teach the World to Sing.&#39; If that were our anthem, then I might salute it.&#39;</description><link>http://americavotes08.blogspot.com/2008/04/obama-explains-national-anthem-stance.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2341226399969318207.post-8230211137413470640</guid><pubDate>Thu, 24 Apr 2008 11:17:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-04-24T04:18:11.022-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Obama lies</category><title>Obama Lies About Taking Money From Lobbyists</title><description>&lt;object width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;355&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/NgEHcDj2oPo&amp;hl=en&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;wmode&quot; value=&quot;transparent&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/NgEHcDj2oPo&amp;hl=en&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; wmode=&quot;transparent&quot; width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;355&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;</description><link>http://americavotes08.blogspot.com/2008/04/obama-lies-about-taking-money-from.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2341226399969318207.post-2644470408134516413</guid><pubDate>Thu, 24 Apr 2008 01:35:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-04-23T18:35:53.501-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Typical White Person</category><title>Obama&#39;s &quot;Typical White Person&quot; interview</title><description>&lt;object width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;355&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/kyfeXuZu3Ig&amp;hl=en&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;wmode&quot; value=&quot;transparent&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/kyfeXuZu3Ig&amp;hl=en&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; wmode=&quot;transparent&quot; width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;355&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;</description><link>http://americavotes08.blogspot.com/2008/04/obamas-typical-white-person-interview.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2341226399969318207.post-8340281485750012352</guid><pubDate>Wed, 23 Apr 2008 12:43:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-04-23T05:44:14.386-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Obama Cartoon</category><title>Obama Latest Blundergate</title><description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h110/amylouhr/Obama.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;&quot; src=&quot;http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h110/amylouhr/Obama.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</description><link>http://americavotes08.blogspot.com/2008/04/obama-latest-blundergate.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author></item></channel></rss>
