UNIONS, WE REALLY DO NOT NEED THEM ANY MORE

2012-09-25T20:11:00.001-04:00

I know that if this blog goes viral, I will probably be receiving lots of nasty mail. I really expect it.

My take on unions is they are outdated and hurting people more than they are helping. Last year it was Pro football players, this year "right to work" states and collective bargining. Nurses, teachers the list goes on and on.

80% of the time the people going out on strike want job security or bigger pay checks. Most people in non-union jobs are takeing cuts in pay or forced to work less hours and they are happy just to have a job.

My career was in the auto parts business. No union, no job security, if you wanted more money you went to work for the competition. If you wanted a better vacation package or better retirement package, you went to work for the competition. Job security was not even in my career dictionary.

My father, who was a state employee, was a union guy. He was a highway designer for PennDOT. Back in the 50's,60's and possibly the 70's, my father had to be registered with what ever party was the majority in the state at the time. He was a Republican, but if the Dems were in power, he would register and vote as a Dem.

I think it goes without saying that unions are past their prime, take notice to the Asian car market.
I love my American car, I could if I wanted to buy a Toyota or a Honda and be purchasing a car that was built without union labor.

HAPPY 225th BIRTHDAY TO THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES.

2012-09-17T21:52:00.001-04:00

I apologize for posting this blog so late in the day. I actually wanted to ask any parent or big brother or sister, to introduce the Constitution of the United States to any one of school age.

I don't think, correct me if I'm wrong, that this is something that is taught in school anymore. And that is very sad.

http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/constitution.html <

Here is a very excellent link to all aspects of the Constitution. ^ (above)

This would also make a great family fun night activity, Get everyone involved.

Call Grandparents, family & friends and tell them that today was the 225th birthday of the Constitution and you and your family getting together to learn more about it.

I hope you take this chance to explore some of the best pieces of history.

I invite my International audience to participate in this history adventure .

YOURS IN LIBERTY,

P.S. Nobody is going to have a chance to do this today, It would make a good Saturday night get together project. Leave me some feed back !

GODSPEED NEIL ARMSTRONG

2012-09-13T22:22:00.001-04:00

A memorial service was held for Neil Armstrong, who died 8.25.12.

Neil was more than an astronaut, he was the first person to walk on the moon. As a 10 year old boy, he gave me and millions of other boys and girls the inspiration that we could do or be whatever we wanted to be in life.

I wrote a blog when Neil passed away, he was a man who shyed away from the spot light. I just wanted to say good bye to Neil one last time.

Godspeed Neil Armstrong.

ARE WE REALLY BROKE ? ? ?

2012-09-12T20:17:00.000-04:00

Let's say you have five friends, it's Monday, and they all need money. You fit in well with your friends . All six of you blew your paychecks you just received on Friday !

Enter the United States. I'm going to make this easy, the only country in the Middle East we do not provide financial help to is Iran, and that's becsuse they're uber-bad.(bad, bad, bad.)

Libya, Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Pakistan, I probably missed a few. these countries are all on our welfare list. Can't we just tell China to give them the money and we'll call it even. Uh-oh that's right, we owe them money.

I hope if Mitt Romney is elected, (please Dear God!,) Pres.Romney, will put tghe lid on the cookie jar.

P.S. I didn't write a blog yesterday. I spent the better part of the day trying to come up with some good writing, I just couldn't do it. To make up for yesterday, here are my thoughts.

My thoughts and prayers are with the friends and families of the nearly 3,000 people who perished on 9.11.01. Godspeed to the souls that were lost 11 years ago.

WITH THE CONVENTIONS ALL WRAPPED UP, LOOKING FOWARD TO DEBATES IN OCTOBER.

2012-09-08T19:54:00.000-04:00

After watching both debates, I hate to say it but Bill Clinton is a shoe in on Election Day. What do you mean Bill is not running ! He gave a good acceptance speech.

So it's still B.H.O. and Mitt Romney will be dukeing it out.this race for the Presidency. It will come down to how many udeceided and Independent votors watch the debates.

If there was ever a time in your life that you should vote, this is it. If you don't normally vote PLEASE, PLEASE go out and vote. I know politics can be the center of a lot of arguements, I found that out with one of my three sisters.

You might not want to hear or read this, This beautiful country of ours is at a crossroads. The America that we love might be totally restructured by 2016.

We can not allow four more years of B.H.O. I'm afraid at that point his destruction of our economy and jobs base will make our present problems seem small.

THIS HAS BEEN ONE TOUGH WEEK FOR THE DNC

2012-09-06T15:48:00.004-04:00

I expected to see the powers that be running around with fire hats and fire hoses after this story broke. Somebody is going to end up behind the woodshed for this one.

Actually, there we two stories being stirred. First, the Stadium which held 70,000 people was shelved, the DNC was worried about storms moving in. According to the NWS, 10% chance of showers. So why ddid the change the Thursday venue site ?

Now they will try to funnel 70,000 people into a 20,000 capacity Convention Center.Something tells me there were never 70,000 people interested in attending.It gets better.

Two seriously important words we left out of the Democratic Platform. "God" and "Jerusalem."
WOW! did that get things stirred, as the evening drew to a close, "God" and "Jerusalem" made it's way back into the Platform.Not without anger from som Arabs and athiest.

Former Flordia Congressman 19th district Bob Wexler (D) played his hand in this (figures). I guess he did not realize how many athiest democrrats and Muslim Democrats were in attendence at the convention.

I WONDER HOW GOD FEELS, TAKEN OUT OF DNC PLATFORM ?

2012-09-05T20:14:00.002-04:00

When It comes to God, I'm a very private person. I feel that God and I have a rock solid relationship. I don't like when people get all Holy with me, People of the cloth are excluded. I am more than willing to talk about God to a Clergy.

You probably wonder where I'm going with this article. Good guess, you hit it on the first guess ! As the DNC was getting ready for their week in the spotlight, they forgot a couple of items that would have been proper if nothing else in their platform.

They left out the words GOD and Jerusalem out of their Platform. T hey wouldn't recognize that Jerusalem is the Capitol of Israel and leaving God completely out sent a major statement. The Democratic Platform must not have believed in God.

Needless to say that they walked this huge blunder back and fixed it after a ton of scrutiny. Try and imagine how many people sat down to put that Party Platform together.

DNC CONVENTION STARTS 9.4.12

2012-09-01T21:41:00.001-04:00

It goes without saying, I'm not quite as fair and balanced as let's say, FOX NEWS.

I do give the Republicans Hell when they have it coming to them, maybe not as often as I should. For the record, out of the 32 years I've been voting, I have voted Republican all but one time. That one time I voted Democrat, I had good reason.

The Republican Governor was spending money in this state like there was no tomorrow. So I figured, If the GOP Governor was going to spend like a Democrat, I might as well vote for a Democrat.

I have to remember to check and see if I have enough duct tape for the upcoming Convention. When Juan Williams and Debbie Wassermann-Schultz start their whining, I'll need to wrap my head in duct tape so it doesn't EXPLODE !

GO AHEAD, MAKE MY DAY !

2012-08-31T20:36:00.000-04:00

I have a feeling that I'm in the minority when I say I liked Clint Eastwood's contribution to the Convention last night.

He didn't stand up at the podium and bloviate to his heart's content. He put on a skit wit an empty chair, pretending Pres.B.H.O. was sitting there, and he was having a dialoge with him.

The people that thought it was over the edge, quite simply did not get the inside jokes that he was performing. If you read between the lines there were jokes there that were not suitable for the younger audience.

I don't know if I have this word for word, but when B.H.O. was talking to him, Clint would reply "I can't tell him that, he can't do that to himself." It's that much funnier that the audience did't get the joke. All they had to do was read between the lines.

THE CLOSING NIGHT FOR THE GOP CONVENTION CARRIES HIGH EXPECTIONS

2012-08-30T18:54:00.000-04:00

I'm battling a touch of the flu, so please bear with me.

I did manage to watch the Convention last night, I wasn't sure I was going to make it, I. had a nasty fever. Never did make it to get on here and blog. Enough about me.

The headline last night was Paul Ryan's speech, and the speeches leading up to his.Condoleezza Rice, Gov. Mike Huckabee, the list goes on.

Everybody who spoke last night hit home runs out of the ball park. After not blogging last night I want to give credit to Gov.Chris Christie for delivering the Keynote address. Personally I thought he did a great job. Rumor has it that Romney's crew muzzled Gov Christie. If that's true I still think He did a great job.

Tonight will be the big night,Gov. Mitt Romney get to talk to America, I hope and pray that people who say they don't know much about Mitt will tune in and listen to his speech. You will be making very good use of your time.

ISAAC MOVES AWAY FROM TAMPA, TIME TO GET DOWN TO BUSINESS

2012-08-28T21:29:00.005-04:00

With Hurricane Isaac racing towards New Orleans, and we send our prayers to our fellow Americans on the gulf coast, the GOP's set to spend three days selling their platform and ideas to the American people.

I'm going to watch as much of this Convention as I possibly can. I will do the same thing when the Democrats come to Charlotte.

And we can't forget about the Debates. By observing these three parts of the political pie, It will give me the political knowledge I need to make a sound decision on 11.6.12.

Even though I all ready have made my the decision for presidential canidate.

ROMNEY, RYAN & ISAAC !

2012-08-27T19:43:00.003-04:00

Who would have thought that a Tropical Storm named Isaac possibly soon to be a Hurricane Isaac would try to steal the thunder from the GOP Convention.

It's bad, although it could have been worse, at least for the people in Tampa. Early on meteorologist speculated that the storm could take a diret hit on Tampa, now New Orleans is set in the crosshairs.

The Convention could still take a different formation, hopefully the key speakers will all get their chance to speak.

This will be one Convention that the GOP won't soon forget. Mitt Romney, you would think, would have liked to get some bounce out of this event. He still has the debates for people to get an idea of who he is.

UPDATE : GOP CONVENTION SET TO BEGIN TUESDAY

2012-08-26T20:51:00.001-04:00

Well, on the up side, everyone has an extra day to go over their speeches. It was a wise choice to delay the Convention by one day. Better to be safe than sorry.

I do not envy the person who's job it is to make the call whether to move forward tomorrow, or the worst case senario, call off the complete event. It could happen.

I'm having a tough time trying to figure to figure out how in a recent poll, close to 50% don't know Mitt Romney well enough. For all practial purposes, he's been running for President for eight years.

There was a outstanding interview Mitt had with Chris Wallace on FOX NEWS today. I hope anyone interested in Romney for President, had a chance to see the interview today.

A TRUE AMERICAN HERO IS GONE

2012-08-25T20:44:00.000-04:00

Commander Neil Armstrong, at age 82, passed away today from complications he had due to heart bypass surgery.

On 7.20.1969, Neil Armstrong was the first man to walk on the moon. The Apollo 11 space mission took three Americans to the moon for the first time. Neil was famous for the words he transponded back to earth : "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind,"

I can remember sitting & watching history in the making with my younger sister & my parents. I was so excited when he first stepped on the moon, I gave my sister a big hug, which I don't think she really wanted.

I would have to say next to the birth of my daughter and births of my two granddaughters, that first lunar landing is one of those moments you will never forget.

Godspeed Neil Armstrong. The next time I look up at a full moon, I'll wave to you.

GOP CONVENTION IS A GO, DESPITE WEATHER FORCAST

2012-08-24T21:50:00.001-04:00

I guess there could be worse things than a tropical storm, possibly upgrading to a hurricane. If it does form into a hurricane, it will be a catagory one. If it get's serious, Florida's Governor will call in the National Guard.

Mrs. Romney will give a speech Tuesday night and Marco Rubio will give a speech before he introduces the next President of the United States, former Gov. Mitt Romney.

If you have seen the news, these guys behind the scene have turned what ever the venue was into a true Convention center. I wish I could be there for all the festivities. It must be quite the experience.

I'm going to make this another short post. If you plan on watching the Convention on TV, I highly reccomend FOX NEWS. I know they will have coverage monday night. I don't think the three major networks will have coverage monday night.

THIS COULD GET REAL INTERESTING

2012-08-23T20:55:00.001-04:00

A lot of people are going to settle into Tampa, Florida for Mondays start of the Republican National Convention.

One problem, his name is Isaac, Tropical Storm Isaac.Tampa, Florida has areas that are below sea level.This could prove quite catastrophic if Tampa would take a direct hit.

I'm writing this blog a little late in the day and haven't had a chance to watch the news, so I'm not quite sure what the latest forcast is.

I do know the GOP does have contingincy plans to fall back on, if need be. I'll keep this blog short since I don't have any up to date information.

YOURS IN LIBERTY ! ! !

Bob Yeager

TAMPA, WE HAVE A PROBLEM........

2012-08-22T20:00:00.002-04:00

Or to be more accurate, we could possibly have a big problem. Tropical Storm Isaac is forming in the Caribbean. Depending on which weather map you look at, this storm could land anywhere from the gulf states to Florida.

Although there is no set path as of yet, the GOP is not taking chances. It is making contingency plans just to be safe. It is re-arranging the schedule, moveing the roll call to the beginning of the week and moving some of speeches towards the end of the week.

They are also putting in place plans for an alternate location in case the sorm looks like it would be a direct hit to Tampa.

If anyone can remember if Mother Nature ever played a hand in shaping a political convention, let me know. I can't remember this ever happening before.

NEXT STOP TAMPA, 8.27.12

2012-08-21T20:05:00.002-04:00

Look out Tampa......the Republicans are coming !

It won't be that bad, actually it will pump some always useful cash into the local economy.

The only thing that is a little bit strange is VP Joe Biden is going to Florida. I believe in the old rule, keep your friends close & keep your enemies closer but Joe, your the best tool in the GOP tool box.

Maybe Joe could start the convention with a few jokes, (turn the mic off first!) That won't work, Gov. Christie is giving the keynote address and I wouldn't want to be the one to steal his thunder. I can't wait until Pres. Elect Romney & VP Ryan give their speeches.

I believe there is a lot riding on this convention. It wouldn't be a stretch to say some undeceided votors that will listen to these two canidates to give their speeches before they they make a decision on who the're going to vote for.

MARK THESE TWO DATES ON YOUR CALENDER : PART II

2012-08-20T12:16:00.001-04:00

11.6.12. & 1.20.13, Two extremely important dates in this country, maybe the most important in our lifetime. No one knows what the future will bring, I'm going to try my best to look into the future and put it on paper.

It's very early in the morning on 11.7.12, Exit polls Show President-Elect Mitt Romney Was announced as the winner of the 2012 Presidential Election. I could not sleep so I stayed up to face the music.

I'm a glass half full kind of guy and want to remain optimistic on how the election would end, it just wasn't easy. There's always a chance that someone will have an unexpected edge.

Fast forward to 1.27.12. President Mitt Romney was sworn in as President.The nation as a whole has a new spring in it's step. People are smiling again. don't get me wrong, there is a lot of work to do to get our country on the right path again.

Obamascare is fast becoming a faded nightmare. The President has all butt completed filling his cabinet. Sec.of Defense John McCain, Sec.of Treasury Steve Forbes, Sec.of Homeland Security Rudy Juliani, Chief of Education Mike Huckabee, the list was growing day by day.

America was starting to feel good about itself again. I believe America has found it's moral compass again.

2012-08-19T22:07:00.003-04:00

11.6.12. & 1.20.13, Two extremely important dates in this country, maybe the most inportant in our lifetime. No one knows what the future will bring, I'm going to try my best to look into the future and put it on paper.

Early Wednesday, 11.7.12, The race for the Presidency of United States Is over. It was a close race as every one had guessed it would be. President Barack Obama has won a second term.

Only one word can describe this : Incredible.

Fast foward to 1.27.13.

Our country, still reeling from the fact that B.H.O.won a second term, is starting to come apart at the seems. It doesn't make sense, he lost the popular vote, and won the electoral vote. ( if you don't understand the last sentence, Google the words electoral college.)

The President realized he could not be re-elected in four years. So, he started to finish the job he started in '08.

In his State of the Union Address he did something no other President had ever done. He announced his Socialist agenda to the world.

And a shocked world it was, well all most. There were people in this country and abroad that could see this coming.

He fired his complete Cabinet and replaced them with Bill Ayers and other minions that he called czars. At this point, the worlds financial markets started to nose dive.

The protected copies of the Constitution, Declaration Of Independence, Bill of Rights, every document that linked us to our fallen country, we set on fire , in front of the former Capitol bldg.
Their were massive Flag burnings. Any one who tried to stop this mahem, was shot on the spot.

The Stars & Stripes were replaced with that infamous Obama campaign symbol. Our new Dictator was ready to finish the job he started, rule the "Socialist States of Amerika."And he deceided it was a life time position.

2012-08-18T19:02:00.001-04:00

It will be here before you know it. Election Day. The day that Patriotic Americans will exercise their right to vote.

Now that Paul Ryan is the # 2 spot on the GOP ticket, It's time for the conventions and a complete onslaught of TV and radio ads.

It would be great if there would be no mud-slinging, but I'm not going to hold my breath on that one. I'm anxious to watch the debates and look foward to listening to Gov.Chris Christie's kedynote speech.

Whatever happens on 11.6.12 there is one thing for certain, Obama thought he was handed a mess.
who ever wins in November is going to have one hell of a mess to clean up.Maakes you wonder why anyone would want the job in the first place.

I shutter at the thought of Obama keeping this job, where would our country be in 2016 ? Speaking of 2016, I would like to see that movie. The mainstream press is rally hiding from this movie.

I'LL SHOW MY 1040, IF YOU SHOW ME YOUR BIRTH CERTIFICATE !

2012-08-17T20:36:00.001-04:00

Call me crazy, when I was collecting a regular paycheck, I never shared numbers with co-workers. There was a very good reason I wouldn't share my salary with my fellow co-workers. If I made more money than one of my co-workers, they possibly could treat me different or flat out hold it against me.

So my tax return was protected the same way. My own family (except for my wife,) didn't know how much I made. It's just something we didn't talk about.

Now I realize that running for the office of President of the United States, you are pretty much living in a goldfish bowl, but give me a break, better yet give Mitt Romney break.

The Government knows everything about Mitt Romney that they need to know. B.H.O. might think he deserves to see the tax returns of the person who is taking his job in a few months, but he does not deserve to.

If I was B.H.O., I'd be embarrased to have pushed the envelope as far as he has. This man has absolutely no shame whatsoever.

Oh yea, Barack............did you ever find you REAL birth certificate !

TELL US IT AIN'T SO, JOE.............

2012-08-16T18:07:00.000-04:00

Taking a line from my favorite President, Ronald Reagan, "there he goes again."

The father of all gaffs, VP Joe Biden, stepped in "IT" again. For some reason Joe just has a knack for his never ending stream of gaffs. I know we all from time to time have had our mouths kick in before our brains do.

Unfortunately when you are addressing a predominately black audience in Danville, Va., you are bound to get some unwanted attention.

VP Biden was talking about the banks on Wall St.,and he had this to say, The GOP wants to "unchain Wall Street."

He didn't stop there, Then, Biden added, "they're going to put y'all back in chains."
Doug Wilder, The former Governor of Virginia, and the first black Governor elected in the United States took offense to the comments. As did many people accross the country.

I'm starting to think as long as Joe Biden is in office allowed to speak in public, he is the GOP's best weapon in their aresonal.

OBAMA'S RECORD OR LACK OF IT

2012-08-15T17:41:00.001-04:00

As I was contemplating what I was going to blog about today, I thought that writing about the President's accomplishments would make for some interesting reading.

The only problem was there wasn't much to write about. I believe Jimmy Carter did more in his four years than B.H.O. did. And that isn't saying a lot.

The two Presidentsies do have alot in common. They both seriously screwed up this country. The only thing that B.H.O. owns up to is OBAMASCARE. When Mitt Romney & Paul Ryan take over in January, OBAMASCARE will suffer a quick and much needed death. At that point the only thing that is left is all the bailouts he orchestrated. All his other blunders he gift wrapped and handed to Bush 43.

History will show that the Romney/Ryan team really did save America, and not a day too soon.
