Obama 2001 Interview Confirms Socialist View

Joe Biden can deny all he wants: Barack Obama is a socialist. He said it to Joe the Plumber in Ohio and now we know that he said it to a radio station in Chicago back in 2001. The Drudge Report broke the story on Sunday night about an interview with now-defunct WBEZ-FM where Obama laments that the Supreme Court “never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth.” Further proof that this man is not fit to lead this nation. He doesn’t want to preserve, protect, or defend the Constitution. He seeks to shred the Constitution.

Joe Biden Caught Lying

NewsBusters posted an interview Sen. Joe Biden has with an Orlando, Florida anchor at WFTV Channel 9 recently. Barbara West asked straightforward questions to the Democratic VP candidate and even went so far as to quote Karl Marx in reference to Obama’s desire to “spread the wealth around.”

Biden is caught lying through his teeth about Obama’s connection to ACORN and even says Obama doesn’t want to spread the wealth around. Uh, Joe, that’s not what Obama told Joe the Plumber in Ohio:

We the People

As Election Day nears, it’s important to be reminded of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, two documents which our Founding Fathers brilliantly put forth as the foundations for our law and governance. Ronald Reagan said in his 1981 Inaugural Address that “we are a people that has a government, not the other way around.”  It’s no accident that the first three words of the U.S. Constitution are “We the People.” The beautiful words penned by Jefferson that “we hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” must be treasured not just in a history book, but in our hearts as Americans.

The states followed suit before and after the  U.S. Constitution was drafted. Steve Camp wrote a post entitled “The Cross Waves Higher than the Flag.” He listed the first portions of each of the state’s constitutions. I think you’ll find that the states’ founders believed that our rights are derived from God, not from government. Unfortunately in today’s public schools, they’re being taught the opposite. As America votes on November 4, I pray that these profound lessons of history will not be forgotten.

SEC Football Matchups- October 25

    VS.  

KENTUCKY at FLORIDA: On paper, this looks like a mismatch. I’m going with the paper. Kentucky is ravaged by injuries and an inept offense. Florida continues to impress and, after a midseason shock against Ole Miss, will continue their fresh winning streak at home in the Swamp.    FL  56     UK   17

 VS.  

GEORGIA   at    LSU:  This could be renamed the Battle of the Best, But Struggling SEC Teams. Georgia, although putting up decent offensive numbers, have struggled with special teams. LSU’s strong defensive front will load the box to shut down Moreno and force Stafford to throw. This could work in Georgia’s favor with weapons such as A.J. Green and Massaquoi working against a depleted LSU secondary. LSU’s home field advantage in Tiger Stadium will be a factor, but the QB platoon system struggled against South Carolina. Fortunately for LSU, South Carolina’s running game was (and is) MIA. This will be a close game, but Georgia’s slight edge offensively will carry the Dawgs to a W:   UGA  24  LSU  20.

   VS. 

ALABAMA at TENNESSEE:  If it’s the last weekend in October, it’s Alabama vs. Tennessee. The Tide have been the talk of the SEC this season and face a hostile crowd at Neyland Stadium in Knoxville. Bama passed its first road test with a convincing win ‘tween the hedges, but have yet to put together a solid second half. The Vols won their first SEC game last week vs. Miss. State with the defense carrying the Big Orange to victory; however, the offense continues to struggle and with a stout Tide defense rolling into town, not even Phil Fulmer could provide a barricade. The Tide will roll.       ALABAMA   38     UT    10

  VS.  THE BYE WEEK… The Bye Week will put up a fight, but Stephen Garcia will return the forearm shiver he sustained against LSU to pound TBW into submission. Gamecocks in a rout….

Defining Obama’s “Change”

When you ask most Obama supporters why they are supporting him, they give the standard line that “he’s for change.” When you ask those supporters to define what changes Obama will bring, they can’t define it. Dr. Thomas Sowell, one of the most brilliant conservative thinkers and economists, breaks it down for those Obama supporters:

“The magic word “change” makes specifics unnecessary. If things are going bad, some think that what is needed is blank-check ‘change.’

But history shows any number of countries in crises worse than ours, where ‘change’ turned problems into catastrophes.

In czarist Russia, for example, the economy was worse than ours is today and the First World War was going far worse for the Russians than anything we have faced in Iraq. Moreover, Russians had nothing like the rights of Americans today. So they went for ‘change.’

That ‘change’ brought on a totalitarian regime that made the czars’ despotism look like child’s play. The Communists killed more people in one year than the czars killed in more than 90 years, not counting the millions who died in a government-created famine in the 1930s.

Other despotic regimes in China, Cuba, and Iran were similarly replaced by people who promised ‘change’ that turned out to be even worse than what went before.”

The most expensive commodity that this coutry exports is ignorance. If the media won’t vet Obama like they have Joe the Plumber, they are doing a great disservice to us. We the People must inform ourselves and realize that Obama is unfit to lead this great nation.

The Comprehensive Case Against Obama

Hot Air has outlined the reasons Obama is not qualified to lead this nation. These statements are backed up with his voting record and speeches by the Illinois senator

A couple excerpts:

–Barack Obama does not want anyone talking about his radical associations. He’s even sought criminal prosecutions against those who have dared to speak out on issues that make him squirm. Average Americans are judged by the company they keep, and our leaders ought to be held to the same standard.

–Barack Obama gained much of his early traction by speaking out against the war in Iraq. He cites his initial opposition to the war as the crown-jewel example of his judgment on foreign affairs…after he was elected to the US Senate, Obama was faced with an actual vote on a controversial issue: The surge. John McCain and others said the strategy was the only way to salvage the war and recover from our missteps there. History has proven them correct. Obama not only opposed the surge, but actually predicted it would make matters worse. In other words, he was spectacularly wrong on his biggest foreign policy judgment call since joining the Senate.

This is an excellent summation of why Obama is not fit to lead.

Joe the Plumber IS America

 

Mainstream media can’t understand why Joe the Plumber resonates with most Americans. Like many of you, he’s sick and tired of people in the Drive-By Media, Hollywood actors, and liberal politicians like Obama saying how much America sucks. America is the hope of the modern world. As Ronald Reagan and now Sarah Palin have stated, America is the “shining city on a hill,” a beacon of freedom where inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are endowed by God and not government.

Like most Americans, Joe wants to earn more money and realize his dream of owning his own business.  As he told Fox News Channel’s Neil Cavuto, “Robin Hood stole from greedy rich people and redistributed it to the peasants, so to speak, so if he’s calling us peasants, I kind of resent that… [The American Dream is] you work hard. You’re going to get what you want eventually … I just resent the government or Barack Obama’s plan to take more away from me.”

AMEN! Barack Obama has to nuance everything he says because he believes in socialism. As Joe pointed out to Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America, what’s to prevent Obama from deciding that $150,000/year or $100,000/year is considered “rich” and therefore people who earn those amounts of money have to give more of their hard-earned money in taxes? It’s the slippery slope of socialism. That is NOT what this country was founded upon. With the economy struggling, common sense tells you that you need to create wealth and a way to create wealth is to CUT taxes. Obama wants to raise capital gains, corporate, AND personal income taxes so as to “spread the wealth around.” Why should I give some of my hard-earned money to people who sit on their butt all day and wait for a check and a chunk of cheese in their mailbox?  If I want to give my money to someone, that’s MY decision, NOT the government’s! It all boils down to this on Election Day: Do we want freedom or socialism? As Benjamin Franklin said, “They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.”

Obama’s Record on Abortion

Sarah Palin mentioned Obama’s vote against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act in a speech on Saturday in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. Ironically, this was the same place where Obama said that if his daughters ever got pregnant outside of wedlock, he would not want them “punished with a baby.” The first video features testimony from Jill Stanek, a nurse at Christ Hospital in Illinois who saw the practice of taking infants born alive after botched abortion attempts and leaving them in a soiled utility room to die. The second video is an excerpt of Palin’s speech in Pennsylvania. The contrast could not be clearer.

 

Don’t Anger the Chicken!

Proving what we already know: you NEVER anger the San Diego Chicken!

SEC Football Matchups-Oct. 11

Another college football Saturday is upon us! The heart of the SEC schedule begins with a trio of huge matchups:

            

SOUTH CAROLINA vs. KENTUCKY– After a strong showing against Ole Miss, the Gamecock offense could be peaking at the right time; however, the ‘Cocks have often struggled at Commonwealth Stadium. Former USC receivers coach Joker Phillips will try to stymie the vaunted USC defense, but the Cocks will ultimately prevail.     SC  30     UK  17

          

TENNESSEE vs. GEORGIA– The Vols have had UGA’s number the past two seasons. The problems for UT: David Cutcliffe isn’t the offensive coordinator this year and Erik Ainge has graduated. The Dawgs, licking their wounds from their Alabama debacle, are out for revenge. Expect Stafford, Moreno, and Green to set single-game records against a hapless Vol defense and an anemic Big Orange offense.      UGA  52      UT 10

        

LSU vs. FLORIDA– Perhaps the game of the year in the SEC. The trash talk has been flying all week with the Tigers defense threatening to take out Tim Tebow.  Fortunately for the reigning Heisman winner and Co., the game is in the Swamp. Expect the Gators to come out fast with LSU making a comeback late in the second half.    UF  31   LSU  28
