The People of the Democratic Party Could Be Better Served…

First, let me say I’m not a Democrat, in fact I’m pretty far to the right in most of my political views although I do have a fairly moderate take concerning certain social issues. That being said I want everyone to understand I’ve been so unhappy with the bungling of the two mainstream political parties in our country that I’ve signed off on both of them and now proudly proclaim to anyone willing to listen that I’m a right leaning Independent.

It certainly has...

So, as a somewhat impartial observer, I have a couple of questions that are just begging to be asked… First, I find it very hard to believe the majority of the people who make up today’s Democratic Party are so far out in left field that they truly support where President Obama and his people seem to be taking our country. Am I misreading this? Are you lifelong Democrats really hoping to see the demise of the Capitalistic system in our country? Are you in favor of a more Socialistic society in which the government either owns or closely oversees the country’s businesses and takes care of not only the few citizens who are unable to care for themselves but also the multitude of citizens who are apparently unwilling to try? Simply put, are you in favor of an ever growing Federal bureaucracy and the demise of rewarding our citizens' self-initiative?  I find that hard to believe and if I’m not wrong then the second question I have comes barreling right up to the forefront… Why in the world would you continue to support Barrack Obama in his bid to be re-elected if you’re not happy with what he’s been trying to accomplish? Conversely, if you actually are in favor of a more socialistic system in our country and hope to see it implemented then I also have to wonder why you would continue to support Barrack Obama as your champion based on his almost total lack of leadership in the face of adversity.

In our country’s history there has only been one sitting President seeking re-election who was defeated before the general election by a challenger from within his own party, so what I’m about to suggest is historically the wrong thing to do, but it appears to me the Democratic Party would be much better served if they nominated another candidate for the 2012 Presidential Election. Beyond Barrack Obama’s apparent need to saddle those of us who pay taxes with an ever increasing tax burden in order to grow Socialism in the United States, this man and his people have grossly mishandled the economic stimulus, the effort to get our military out of Afghanistan and Iraq, illegal immigration, and on and on. Each one of these issues is bad enough, but taken as a whole they add up to nothing short of a resounding defeat of Mr. Obama in the next election and I don’t care if he musters a trillion dollar campaign. The majority of Americans have had enough of this man, his failed policies and lack of leadership. Mark my words, if Barrack Obama carries the Democratic Party’s nomination into the 2012 general election he won’t be the only Democrat going down to defeat.

If the Democratic Party wants to hold onto some semblance of power, it seems to me they will be much better served running a different candidate for President in 2012…

VERY QUIETLY OBAMA'S CITIZENSHIP CASE REACHES THE SUPREME COURT

I received this in an email today and felt it was too important to simply pass it on to the folks on my mailing list.

I've been concerned about this for quite some time and have been told by several individuals not to waste my time on it. The Office of the President of the United States is too strong to allow an honest investigation to take place. Well folks, it looks like it's going to happen and these people bringing the case to the Supreme Court of our land appear to be loaded for bear. This could end up being the biggest scam our country has ever seen and it's not just an affront to the people on the right, it's an affront to every single American citizen...

Here's what I just received:

VERY QUIETLY OBAMA'S CITIZENSHIP CASE REACHES THE SUPREME COURT.

Hawaii has until August 8, 2011, to produce documents and open the books for a full investigation. This order was delivered on July 5, 2011, under a direct order of the Supreme Court.

AP - WASHINGTON D.C. –

In a move certain to fuel the debate over Obama's qualifications for the presidency, the group "Americans for Freedom of Information" has Released copies of President Obama's college transcripts from Occidental College...
Released today, the transcript school indicates that Obama, under the name Barry Soetoro, received financial aid as a foreign student from Indonesia as an undergraduate.

The transcript was released by Occidental College in compliance with a court order in a suit brought by the group in the Superior Court of California. The transcript shows that Obama (Soetoro) applied for financial aid and was awarded a fellowship for foreign students from the Fulbright Foundation Scholarship program. To qualify, for the scholarship, a student must claim foreign citizenship.

This document would seem to provide the smoking gun that many of Obama's detractors have been seeking. Along with the evidence that he was first born in Kenya and there is no record of him ever applying for US citizenship, this is looking pretty grim. The news has created a firestorm at the White House as the release casts increasing doubt about Obama's legitimacy and qualification to serve as President article titled, "Obama Eligibility Questioned", leading some to speculate that the story may overshadow economic issues on Obama's first official visit to the U.K. In a related matter, under growing pressure from several groups, Justice Antonin Scalia announced that the Supreme Court agreed on Tuesday to hear arguments concerning Obama's legal eligibility to serve as President in a case brought by Leo Donofrio of New Jersey. This lawsuit claims Obama's dual citizenship disqualified him from serving as president. Donofrio's case is just one of 18 suits brought by citizens demanding proof of Obama's citizenship or qualification to serve as president.

Gary Kreep of the United States Justice Foundation has released the results of their investigation of Obama's campaign spending.

This study estimates that Obama has spent upwards of $950,000 in campaign funds in the past year with eleven law firms in 12 states for legal resources to block disclosure of any of his personal records. Mr. Kreep indicated that the investigation is still ongoing but that the final report will be provided to the U.S. Attorney general, Eric Holder. Mr. Holder has refused to comment on the matter...

LET OTHER FOLKS KNOW THIS NEWS, THE MEDIA WON'T!

Subject: RE: Issue of Passport?

While I've little interest in getting in the middle of the Obama birth issue, Paul Hollrah over at FSM did so yesterday and believes the issue can be resolved by Obama answering one simple question: What passport did he use when he was shuttling between New York , Jakarta , and Karachi ?

So how did a young man who arrived in New York in early June 1981, without the price of a hotel room in his pocket, suddenly come up with the price of a round-the-world trip just a month later? And once he was on a plane, shuttling between New York, Jakarta, and Karachi, what passport was he offering when he passed through Customs and Immigration?

The American people not only deserve to have answers to these questions, they must have answers. It makes the debate over Obama's citizenship a rather short and simple one.

Q: Did he travel to Pakistan in 1981, at age 20?

A : Yes, by his own admission.

Q: What passport did he travel under?

A: There are only three possibilities.

1) He traveled with a U.S. Passport, 2) He traveled with a British passport, or 3) He traveled with an Indonesia passport.

Q: Is it possible that Obama traveled with a U.S. Passport in 1981?

A: No. It is not possible. Pakistan was on the U.S. State Department's "no travel" list in 1981.

Conclusion: When Obama went to Pakistan in 1981, he was traveling either with a British passport or an Indonesian passport. If he were traveling with a British passport, that would provide proof that he was born in Kenya on August 4, 1961, not in Hawaii as he claims. And if he were traveling with an Indonesian passport, that would tend to prove that he relinquished whatever previous citizenship he held, British or American, prior to being adopted by his Indonesian step-father in 1967.

Whatever the truth of the matter, the American people need to know how he managed to become a "natural born" American citizen between 1981 and 2008.

Given the destructive nature of his plans for America, as illustrated by his speech before Congress and the disastrous spending plan he has presented to Congress, the sooner we learn the truth of all this, the better.

****************************************************************************

If you don't care that your President is not a natural born Citizen and in violation of the Constitution, then forget about it and then lower your American Flag to half-staff, because the U.S. Constitution is already on life-support, and won't survive much longer.

If you do care, forward this to as many patriotic Americans as you can, because our country is being looted and ransacked!

For The Good of Our Country

It’s really difficult for me when I see what is happening in Afghanistan and Iraq. Do you realize our troops have been over there now for 10 years? For those of us old enough to remember the demise of the Soviet Union do you remember what the Soviet leadership was doing just before that momentous event? They were squandering their nation’s people and wealth in a long civil war struggle in Afghanistan. Our leader at that time, President Reagan supported the Afghan rebels with weapons and money. Little did we know at the time these freedom fighters would turn out to ultimately be the Taliban and Al Qaeda. The real problem being that once the Soviets pulled out of Afghanistan, our leaders withdrew America’s influence from the region as well. Then came Sadam Hussein’s invasion of Kuwait and the first gulf war.

Our forces spearheaded the effort against the Iraqis and once again our leaders pulled out of the region without finishing the job. It’s hard to say where we would be today if we had stayed the course over there and helped those people. Maybe we might have never heard of the Taliban or Al Qaeda and there certainly wouldn’t have been a second gulf war. There are so many maybes when you consider it, but those aren’t the cards we’ve been dealt.

Today, with our country’s economy on life-support, we continue to maintain armies of our fine young men and women in Iraq and Afghanistan. More recently we’ve supported a multi-nation effort to aid the rebels in Libya’s civil war while we continue to maintain a military presence all over the world at an astronomical cost to our citizens.

So, the question comes to mind: What exactly is our strategy? What would we face down the road if we withdrew from the Iraqi and Afghanistan killing fields? And, conversely, what could happen if we attempt to maintain our presence in those countries? There are two scenarios that recent history points to. If we continue our military presence in the Middle East, there’s the Soviet model of a collapsed economy leading to civil unrest within our country that in turn could change how we govern ourselves. On the other hand there’s the alternative of pulling out our forces, attempting to heal our economic woes at home and risk the rise of an even greater threat possibly led by Iran’s fundamentalist leaders or some other radical Muslim government or sect. Looking at our situation, I’ve got to believe there’s only one course to follow and that’s the military withdrawal from the Middle East. Let’s face it; if our country totally falls apart economically we won’t be in a position to maintain our military presence anywhere, let alone in the Middle East. Withdrawing from Iraq and Afghanistan at least gives us a fighting chance to get our own house in order. Whether our current President would attempt to get our economy rolling is another question as he seems intent on overseeing the demise of our nation for whatever his reasons may be.

The terrible news of 30 U.S. special force personnel being killed in Afghanistan has brought these questions to the forefront. For the good of our country, take our forces out of the Middle East and pray that a greater threat doesn’t come about. We simply must get our economy on the road to recovery. If we can do that, then we will be better prepared to face what may come next…
