More Indoctrination In Our Schools

This needs to stop.

Obama Weakening Our Military And Defense

2009-09-17T12:11:00.002-04:00

What is wrong with this guy? Obama announced, on the 70th anniversary of the Soviet Unions invasion of Poland, that the United States will not be building the missile shield in Eastern Europe.

Why is Obama giving in to Russia and Putin? This is after Venezuela just announced that Russia will be helping them build Nuclear plants and they are also against sanctions on Iran.

Is this man trying to make it so that we are not a global power?

This defense shield would help protect the United States and Europe from rogue nations like Iran, but Russia is trying to become the Soviet Union again and will do anything to get there.

Michigan Day Care Providers Forced Into Unions

2009-09-16T15:36:00.003-04:00

The State of Michigan has forced day care providers into Unions. This is all due to the UAW, Michigan Department of Human Services and AFSCME.

Going Against Obama Is Racist?

2009-09-16T12:11:00.004-04:00

This is just getting out of control. The Mainstream Media is saying it. Blogs are saying it. Democratic politicians are saying it. Now Jimmy Carter?

"I think an overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Barack Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man, that he's African-American," Carter told "NBC Nightly News." "I live in the South, and I've seen the South come a long way, and I've seen the rest of the country that shares the South's attitude toward minority groups at that time, particularly African-Americans."

This is bullshit!

The people at these rallies believe in this country and not in Obamas policy that is destroying everything this country was built on. We are against Cap and Trade, Government controlled healthcare, bailouts, government owned car companies and much more. This is why people are protesting. This is why people are fired up. If you think that these protests will just go away, YOU ARE WRONG!

Nothing that we have done is racist. I could careless that Obama is black. I care about his Socialist mentality.

Obama needs to stand up and tell his allies to quit using the race card. This is only hurting him.

Don't forget that the Republicans are the ones that freed the slaves and gave them rights and the Democrats, Robert Byrd, is the party that has a known Klan member.

Just How Many People Were At The 9/12 Protest?

2009-09-14T11:55:00.002-04:00

CNN says maybe 10,000. The police estimate 1.2 - 2 million. I would side with the police. Check this video out.

How come CNN, ABC, MSNBC, CBS and all the other media outlets are not covering this? Only Fox is.

The Democrats should be scared.

CNN Tries To Bate 9/12 Protester

Don't forget, this is where Obama came from

Obama To Indoctrinate The Youth

2009-09-01T20:44:00.003-04:00

Looks like Obama is taking a play out of Hitlers play book. Hitler had discussions like this with the Ayren youth.

What is his plan? What are these goals that Obama talks about? Could it be going home and trying to change their parents minds?

These kids are not yours to mold. Politics should stay out of the class room. Does anyone wonder why people would rather put their kids in private school?

This should not be played in that class room. I would have said the same as if it was Bush.

PreK-6 Menu of Classroom Activities:
President Obama’s Address to Students
Across America
Produced by Teaching Ambassador Fellows, U.S. Department of Education September 8, 2009

Before the Speech:

Teachers can build background knowledge about the President of the United States and his speech by reading books about presidents and Barack Obama and motivate students by asking the following questions:

Who is the President of the United States?

What do you think it takes to be President?

To whom do you think the President is going to be speaking?

Why do you think he wants to speak to you?

What do you think he will say to you?

Teachers can ask students to imagine being the President delivering a speech to all of the students in the United States.

What would you tell students?

What can students do to help in our schools?

Teachers can chart ideas about what they would say.

Why is it important that we listen to the President and other elected officials, like the mayor, senators, members of congress, or the governor?

Why is what they say important?

During the Speech:

As the President speaks, teachers can ask students to write down key ideas or phrases that are important or personally meaningful. Students could use a note-taking graphic organizer such as a Cluster Web, or students could record their thoughts on sticky notes. Younger children can draw pictures and write as appropriate.

As students listen to the speech, they could think about the following:

What is the President trying to tell me?

What is the President asking me to do?

What new ideas and actions is the President challenging me to think about?

Students can record important parts of the speech where the President is asking them to do something. Students might think about:

What specific job is he asking me to do?

Is he asking anything of anyone else? Teachers? Principals? Parents? The American people?

Students can record any questions they have while he is speaking and then discuss them after the speech. Younger children may need to dictate their questions.

After the Speech:

Teachers could ask students to share the ideas they recorded, exchange sticky notes or stick notes on a butcher paper poster in the classroom to discuss main ideas from the speech, i.e. citizenship, personal responsibility, civic duty.

Students could discuss their responses to the following questions:

What do you think the President wants us to do?

Does the speech make you want to do anything?

Are we able to do what President Obama is asking of us?

What would you like to tell the President?

Teachers could encourage students to participate in the Department of Education’s “I Am What I Learn” video contest.

On September 8th the Department will invite K-12 students to submit a video no longer than 2 min, explaining why education is important and how their education will help them achieve their dreams. Teachers are welcome to incorporate the same or a similar video project into an assignment. More details will be released via www.ed.gov
.
Extension of the Speech:

Teachers can extend learning by having students

Create posters of their goals.

Posters could be formatted in quadrants or puzzle pieces or trails marked with the labels: personal, academic, community, country. Each area could be labeled with three steps for achieving goals in those areas. It might make sense to focus on personal and academic so community and country goals come more readily.

Write letters to themselves about what they can do to help the president. These would be collected and redistributed at an appropriate later date by the teacher to make students accountable to their goals.

Write goals on colored index cards or precut designs to post around the classroom.


Interview and share about their goals with one another to create a supportive community.

Participate in School wide incentive programs or contests for students who achieve their goals.

Write about their goals in a variety of genres, i.e. poems, songs, personal essays.

Create artistic projects based on the themes of their goals.

Graph student progress toward goals.

For the record, my kid would be staying home if he was old enough for school.

Vote Texas Democratic Congressman Gene Green Out Of Office

2009-08-13T12:11:00.003-04:00

Looks like Green does not appreciate Freedom of Speech, at least not when it may be against what he is doing.

Texas Democratic Congressman Gene Green has decided to limit attendance at his town hall events in order to maintain what he calls, a civil discussion of the issues. Green writes on his Web site: "Unfortunately, due to a coordinated effort to disrupt our town hall meetings — we will be restricting further attendance to residents of the 29th Congressional district and verifying residency by requiring photo identification."

But Green hasn't always favored such restrictions. A non-partisan-issues Web site says Green has voted twice against requiring photo ID in federal elections. Green's office explains: "Previous votes on the voter integrity project requiring picture identification would have restricted voter participation — whereas our decision is to enhance our constituent's participation in town halls — without interruption from non-constituents."

Green is all for voter fraud, which favors Democrats, but is against the Freedom of Speech. I bet that if it was Code Pink, ACORN, or the ACLU he would let them in without card checking them.

Obama Admits Government Run Programs Don't Work

2009-08-11T20:32:00.001-04:00

Really? This is his way of helping his case towards Government control of healthcare?

Thanks to Obama for a great case against it.

Obama: Sit Down And Shut Up

2009-08-07T12:39:00.002-04:00

Obama needs to start listening to the people and stop paying attention to his Marxist friends. The Democrats just don't get it. Yes the Republicans messed up, but the people did not ask for the country to make a complete change in direction. This is a center right country, not a far left one.

Unions Are Nothing More Then The Democrats Lap Dogs

2009-08-06T21:32:00.003-04:00

Looks like the Democrats cant handle the American people protesting their Socialist agenda. So what do they do? They call on their lap dogs, the Unions.

AFL-CIO have been told to get involved with the Town Hall meetings.

The Democrats have been saying that this is Astro turf, that this is not a real movement. This just shows that they just don't get it. The American people spoke last November and gave the Democrats a chance after the Republicans screw up. What did they do with that chance? They have been pushing through every screwed up policy of the far, far left. They have pandered to every special interest group and donor that gives them money. They have hijacked this country.

What they don't get is they woke up a monster. Conservatives do not protest, they vote. We ARE the silent majority. If you think that what you see at these town halls is big, wait till election day.

Just remember, what you seen at the Tea Parties was all grass roots, home made signs, families, kids, and a civil protest. When you have Liberals protest it is all manufactured. Just look, they all have the same signs, wear the same shirts, and are all paid for by Unions, ACORN, SEIU, and the Democratic Party.

Houses Healthcare Bill Calls Mentally Handicapped, Retarded

2009-07-26T16:36:00.003-04:00

I shouldn't be surprised, coming from team Obama, but I am. Then again this is the man that called his bowling game something out of the Special Olympics.

The proposed health-insurance bill from the House of Representatives refers to mentally disabled people as "retarded" -- a term advocates, relatives and physicians find outdated and offensive.

The bill refers to: "A hospital or a nursing facility or intermediate-care facility for the mentally retarded . . ."

I thought Liberals were supposed to be all about equality. I thought the Democrats were the party that was supposed to "Level the playing field" for everyone. All they are doing is showing their true colors. They are nothing more then a bunch of clowns and need to be voted out in 2010.

And to the Dems, If you cant win by calling this Healthcare. What makes you think changing the name to Health Insurance Reform is going to do anything.

Obama Calls Police Stupid

2009-07-24T12:04:00.003-04:00

Obama used his time on the TV the other night to call out the police officers that arrested one of this friends. The skinny on the whole thing is that the Police were called to black Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates Jr's house because his neighbor saw someone shouldering the front door. When they got there Gates was the one doing it but he blew it out of proportion and called the police racist, because they were doing their job.

Whats awesome about this whole thing is that Cambridge Sgt. James Crowley, the cop on the scene, teaches classes about racial profilling.

So Obama was wrong, but wont admit it. Because of that it will hurt him. Police around the country are mad and damn well should be.

Crowley has every right to sue and should.

Who in Congress Voted For Cap & Trade?

Republicans Response To ABC's Obama Infomercial

How The Mighty Has Fallen: Obamas Approval Ratings Keep Falling

2009-06-23T10:58:00.003-04:00

I fully expect his approval numbers to keep falling. We are in a time where the people demand that their elected officials do things that help. We don't want someone who panders to special interests and gives jobs to his buddy's. This is not Chicago, we do not want those politics.

You bamboozled America to get elected, people are waking up. They realize what you you are and your party will fall because of it.

War Funding Bill Disguises IMF Global Bailout

2009-06-19T13:05:00.001-04:00

Read what Mike Rogers wrote, he gets it.

Posted by Mike Rogers on Thu, Jun 18, 2009 at 10:35 AM

War
funding bill disguises IMF global bailout

U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Brighton, is a member of the House Intelligence
Committee as well as the Energy and Commerce Committee.

This week,
legislation came to the House floor disguised as funding for America's military
men and women. Unfortunately, underneath the disguise was concealed a huge $108
billion global bailout for the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

Michigan families, even in tight economic times, would never begrudge
our brave military men and women the resources they need to keep America safe.
With more than 14 percent of the state's working men and women unemployed, and
many, many more looking over their shoulders in fear of losing their jobs,
however, we do begrudge the IMF getting a huge amount of our tax dollars to
support some of the very countries that begrudge us our freedoms.

Dressed up as a War Funding Supplemental bill this week, the U.S. House
approved a measure that did just that --designates $108 billion to bailout the
IMF. So the U.S. taxpayer will be forced to borrow the $108 billion from
countries like China and Saudi Arabia, and the IMF will then loan it to
countries like Iran and Venezuela, which are spending money to kill Americans or
hurt America's national security interests.

Apparently Democrat leaders
in Congress have decided that huge Wall Street bailouts here in the United
States weren't enough; now they want to bail out the world!

The most
shameful thing is that they would dress up a global bailout as troop funding.
Basically they are using our defenders of freedom as bait for a giant global
bailout.

In Michigan, we may be struggling to make ends meet and
searching for ways to get our economy moving again, but we know for certain that
borrowing $108 billion and sending it overseas to countries like Iran is not
going to help us get back on track economically

Barbara Boxer Slams Brigadier General

2009-06-18T12:27:00.002-04:00

I am sure that someone will say that I am being petty for bringing this up, but I am not. The military address's all men by sir and all women by ma'am. That is how it is and how it has been for years. It doesn't matter if they are a Senator, 5 star General or the President.

Barbara Boxer has not earned anything. She was elected to a position that special interest money and negative campaigning helped her get. She is part of the privileged class.

On the other hand you have a Brigadier General that has actually earned his position. Boxer was just trying to put him in his place.

Boxer you need to realize that most of America does not like Congress but we love our Military. You wonder why most Military vote Republican.

Oh and if you notice, I didn't call you Senator once.

Obama Gets Free All Day Infomercial On ABC

2009-06-16T09:32:00.003-04:00

On the night of June 24, the media and government become one, when ABC turns its programming over to President Obama and White House officials to push government run health care -- a move that has ignited an ethical firestorm!

Highlights on the agenda:

ABCNEWS anchor Charlie Gibson will deliver WORLD NEWS from the Blue Room of the White House.

The network plans a primetime special -- 'Prescription for America' -- originating from the East Room, exclude opposing voices on the debate.

Is this Venezuela? Is our President Hugo Chavez? This is just wrong. The media is supposed to debate this stuff not promote one side.

Late Monday night, Republican National Committee Chief of Staff Ken McKay fired off a complaint to the head of ABCNEWS:

Dear Mr. Westin:

As the national debate on health care reform intensifies, I am deeply concerned and disappointed with ABC's astonishing decision to exclude opposing voices on this critical issue on June 24, 2009. Next Wednesday, ABC News will air a primetime health care reform “town hall” at the White House with President Barack Obama. In addition, according to an ABC News report, GOOD MORNING AMERICA, WORLD NEWS, NIGHTLINE and ABC’s web news “will all feature special programming on the president’s health care agenda.” This does not include the promotion, over the next 9 days, the president’s health care agenda will receive on ABC News programming.

Today, the Republican National Committee requested an opportunity to add our Party's views to those of the President's to ensure that all sides of the health care reform debate are presented. Our request was rejected. I believe that the President should have the ability to speak directly to the America people. However, I find it outrageous that ABC would prohibit our Party's opposing thoughts and ideas from this national debate, which affects millions of ABC viewers.

In the absence of opposition, I am concerned this event will become a glorified infomercial to promote the Democrat agenda. If that is the case, this primetime infomercial should be paid for out of the DNC coffers. President Obama does not hold a monopoly on health care reform ideas or on free airtime. The President has stated time and time again that he wants a bipartisan debate. Therefore, the Republican Party should be included in this primetime event, or the DNC should pay for your airtime.

Respectfully,
Ken McKay
Republican National Committee
Chief of Staff

Hey just like Hitler, Stalin, Castro, Chavez and many other dictators, they silenced their opposition. People we need to wake up and kick the Democrats back out of office. Oh, and the DNC should have to pay for airtime all day.

Obama Fires Inspector General After IG Busts Supporter

2009-06-12T12:44:00.002-04:00

Here comes even more Chicago style thug politics. The IG busts one of Obamas friends using funds inappropriately and Obama kicks him out of his job.

There are a number of unanswered questions today about President Obama's abrupt decision to fire the inspector general of the AmeriCorps program, Gerald Walpin. Obama sent letters to House and Senate leaders yesterday informing them that he was firing Walpin, effective 30 days from the date of the letters.

"It is vital that I have the fullest confidence in the appointees serving as Inspectors General," the president wrote. "That is no longer the case with regard to this Inspector General."

The 30 day requirement is important because last year Congress passed the Inspectors General Reform Act, which was designed to strengthen protections for IGs, who have the responsibility of investigating allegations of waste, fraud and abuse within federal agencies, against interference by political appointees or the White House. Part of the Act was a requirement that the president give Congress 30 days' notice before dismissing an IG. One of the co-sponsors of the Act was then-Sen. Barack Obama.

The Act also requires the president to outline the cause for his decision to remove an IG. Beyond saying that he did not have the "fullest confidence" in Walpin, Obama gave no reason for his action.

There are two big questions about the president's actions. One, why did he decide to fire Walpin? And two, did he abide by the law that he himself co-sponsored?

According to Republican Sen. Charles Grassley, a strong advocate of inspectors general, Walpin received a call from the White House Counsel's office on Wednesday evening. Walpin was told that he had one hour to either resign or be fired. Senate sources say Walpin asked why he was being fired and, according to one source, "The answer that was given was that it's just time to move on. The president would like to have someone else in that position." Walpin declined to resign.

Grassley fired off a letter to the president on Thursday saying that, "I was troubled to learn that [Wednesday] night your staff reportedly issued an ultimatum to the AmeriCorps Inspector General Gerald Walpin that he had one hour to resign or be terminated," Grassley wrote. "As you know, Inspectors General were created by Congress as a means to combat waste, fraud, and abuse and to be independent watchdogs ensuring that federal agencies were held accountable for their actions. Inspectors General were designed to have a dual role reporting to both the President and Congress so that they would be free from undue political pressure. This independence is the hallmark of all Inspectors General and is essential so they may operate independently, without political pressure or interference from agencies attempting to keep their failings from public scrutiny."

Grassley's version of events suggests that the White House first tried to muscle Walpin out of his job without having to go through the 30-day process. It was only when Walpin refused to resign that the White House then notified Congress of the president's intention to fire Walpin.

The bigger question is why the president is doing this and why he is attempting to do it so quickly. Senate sources now believe Obama is firing Walpin over Walpin's investigation of Kevin Johnson, a former NBA star and a prominent supporter of the president.

Johnson, now the mayor of Sacramento, California, started a non-profit organization called St. Hope. The group's mission, according to its website, is "to revitalize inner-city communities through public education, civic leadership, economic development and the arts." As part of its work, St. Hope received a grant of about $850,000 from AmeriCorps.

Last year, Walpin began an investigation of how Johnson's group spent the money. According to the Associated Press, "[Walpin] found that Johnson, a former all-star point guard for the Phoenix Suns, had used AmeriCorps grants to pay volunteers to engage in school-board political activities, run personal errands for Johnson and even wash his car." Walpin asked federal prosecutors to investigate. In April, the U.S. attorney in Sacramento, a Bush holdover, declined to file any criminal charges in the matter and also criticized Walpin's investigation.

That might suggest that St. HOPE was OK, and it was Walpin who was in the wrong. But at the same time prosecutors decided not to file any charges against St. HOPE, the U.S. attorney's office also entered into a settlement with St. HOPE in which the group also agreed to pay back about half of the $850,000 it had received from AmeriCorps.

In his letter to the president, Grassley defended Walpin's performance. "There have been no negative findings against Mr. Walpin by the Integrity Committee of the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency (CIGIE), and he has identified millions of dollars in AmeriCorps funds either wasted outright or spent in violation of established guidelines," Grassley wrote. "In other words, it appears he has been doing his job. "

The bottom line is that the AmeriCorps IG accused a prominent Obama supporter of misusing AmeriCorps grant money. After an investigation, the prominent Obama supporter had to pay back more than $400,000 of that grant money. And Obama fired the AmeriCorps IG.

Come on people. This guy is destroying everything we know. On top of this he keeps giving jobs to all his high dollar supporters. Were is the Media in all of this?

Obama's IRS: You Should Pay Taxes On Work Cell Phones

2009-06-12T09:17:00.002-04:00

Remember when Obama said that he wouldn't raise taxes on anyone making over $250,000, well he lied yet again. His IRS is now thinking about calling peoples work cell phones as Fringe Benefits thereby taxing them. They say that they will tax 25 Percent of the calls as personal use, unless you can prove that you do not use it for personal use.

How do you do that? I am assuming I will have to submit my personal phones bill. If I have to do that isn't that an invasion of privacy?

The use of company-issued mobile phones could trigger new federal income taxes on millions of Americans as a "fringe benefit."

The Internal Revenue Service proposed employers assign 25% of an employee's annual phone expenses as a taxable benefit. Under that scenario, a worker in the 28% tax bracket, whose wireless device costs the company $1,500 a year, could see $105 in additional federal income tax.

Just more ways for the Obama clan to get into your pocket book. I hope that the people that voted for him are happy, since you are blind.

Obama Justice Department Drops Charges Against Black Panthers

2009-05-29T10:28:00.002-04:00

Are they in bed together? Obama is in bed with every other screwed up organization so I wouldn't doubt it.

The charges stemmed from an incident at a Philadelphia polling place on Election Day 2008 when three members of the party were accused of trying to threaten voters and block poll and campaign workers by the threat of force -- one even brandishing what prosecutors call a deadly weapon.

The three black panthers, Minister King Samir Shabazz, Malik Zulu Shabazz and Jerry Jackson were charged in a civil complaint in the final days of the Bush administration with violating the voter rights act by using coercion, threats and intimidation. Shabazz allegedly held a nightstick or baton that prosecutors said he pointed at people and menacingly tapped it. Prosecutors also say he "supports racially motivated violence against non-blacks and Jews."

If you want to watch it search for it on youtube. If this was the KKK doing it, I guess it would be a bigger deal.

A poll watcher who provided an affidavit to prosecutors in the case noted that Bartle Bull, who worked as a civil rights lawyer in the south in the 1960's and is a former campaign manager for Robert Kennedy, said it was the most blatant form of voter intimidation he had ever seen.

In his affidavit, obtained by FOX News, Bull wrote "I watched the two uniformed men confront voters and attempt to intimidate voters. They were positioned in a location that forced every voter to pass in close proximity to them. The weapon was openly displayed and brandished in plain sight of voters."

He also said they tried to "interfere with the work of other poll observers ... whom the uniformed men apparently believed did not share their preferences politically," noting that one of the panthers turned toward the white poll observers and said "you are about to be ruled by the black man, cracker."

A spokesman for the Department of Justice told FOX News, "The Justice Department was successful in obtaining an injunction that prohibits the defendant who brandished a weapon outside a Philadelphia polling place from doing so again. Claims were dismissed against the other defendants based on a careful assessment of the facts and the law. The department is committed to the vigorous prosecution of those who intimidate, threaten or coerce anyone exercising his or her sacred right to vote."

I am going to say what this is, Bullshit. Like I said, if this was a White Supremacy group, they would make sure that they were prosecuted, which they should be. This country is getting absolutely ridiculous.
