Now a US Congressman!!! :)

Ponzi schemes are illegal, unless you are government, which consistently peddles slavery and debt in the disguise of security and freedom. Social Security has now officially been disclosed go the way of all the wonderful Utopian entitlements...broke and unfunded.

See the following articles that illustrate what common sense should tell us all:

Ron Paul Comments on the SOTU Address

Congressman Ron Paul dismissed last night’s State of the Union political theater of making Republicans and Democrats sit together as part of a tenuous symbolic gesture in connection with the Tucson shootings as nothing more than “a bunch of fluff”.

SOTU - Fact Check on President Obama's Speech

Interesting fact-check on some of President Obama's comments from his State of the Union Address last night. Unfortunately this does not touch on the fact that the 10 year timeline is front loaded with massive taxes that outweigh the increase in expenses. Past this timeline, as with ALL entitlements, the cost is sure to overrun revenues. (See my other post here: http://american-conservatism.blogspot.com/2011/01/another-debunking-of-obamacare-reducing.html)

Birthers? Who Keeps Bringing Up This Topic Anyway?

Funny how the Democratic Hawaii governor mentions that he will find and show President Obama's birth certificate, but cannot or will not deliver it. Now, White House Spokesman Robert Gibbs comes out to call "Birthers" as not being rational...

The headlines on this lately seen lately are largely created by those who "cry foul" on those who request proof in the form of a birth certificate, not those who question the validity of the existence of the President elect's birth certificate....oh the irony.

Another Debunking of Obamacare "Reducing" the Deficit

Interesting points laid out by Charles Krauthammer in this Washing Post article dated January 21, 2011...

It is all about how you structure the numbers, as in the case of Obamacare, there is a greater amount of taxes versus spending for the 10-year time period often discussed. Essentially we have here a large increase in spending offset with an even larger amount of taxes...both detrimental when considering our current "on the books" national debt is over $14 Trillion.

See Washington Post article here: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2011/01/20/AR2011012003687.html

Times Are Hard, and Getting Harder...

I cannot speak for everyone out there, but times are certainly tight. As I post this, I am still blessed to have a job and the ability to meet my monthly obligations. However, the squeeze is definitely on and relief does not appear to be apparent for the near future. Thanks to our wonderful elected leaders ability to spend money on just about anything and anywhere, we are now seeing a national debt of over $14 Trillion ($45,300 for every man, woman, and child in America).

See article: http://pajamasmedia.com/blog/america-the-broke/?singlepage=true

The debt is said to be mathematically impossible to pay back (http://www.infowars.com/it-is-now-mathematically-impossible-to-pay-off-the-u-s-national-debt/).

This does not even include other "liabilities" like Social Security, Medicare, etc. Also, the untold amount of derivatives (derivatives estimated at amounts of $1.5 Quadrillion...yikes!!) prove to add even more to this insurmountable debt.

See derivatives article: http://www.prisonplanet.com/it%E2%80%99s-the-bankers-or-us.html

Yet, Congress wants to increase the limits for debt. Perhaps it is time for us to consider just what course this country is taking toward imminent economic collapse.

Raising the Debt Ceiling? Jim DeMint (US Congressman - South Carolina) says "...our debt has reached scorching levels"

Reaching the debt ceiling should be a warning bell to Congress that our debt has reached scorching levels. But all Washington politicians want to do is shut off the alarm instead of put out the fire.

The alarms are ringing loudly, and with more frequency, in response to new and expanded entitlement programs, bailouts and Big Government takeovers. Congress has voted to raise the debt ceiling every year since 2002 — and twice in 2008 and 2009.

Raising the debt ceiling yet again without a plan to cut spending would be like putting out a fire with gasoline instead of water. Doing so would allow the government to continue borrowing more to spend more.

Obamacare's Un-equal Protection Under the Law

With all the exemptions now being granted to the new Health Care Reform, it is proving to be another case of big business and various "insider" contributors getting more gracious goodies from the Federal Government. In the article below, you will see how unions are getting some of the kickbacks for the gracious support they have shown the President and Democrats in general over the past 3/4 century. Business as usual...

How can we expect businesses to compete on the ever-increasingly uneven playing field? This is yet another case of Corporatism, which has only expanded since the bailouts were initially implements just over 2 years ago.

Moscow's Domodedovo Airport Attacked by Suicide Bomber

This unfortunate and tragic event will no doubt be used to further suppress free people. We have no doubt seen an increase in "security" here in America at our airports and expanding soon to other modes of transportation.

I find it "troubling" (to say the least) that my children will grow up in an America where being groped by strangers at the airport will be a common occurrence. Also, the idea of guilty until proven innocent is a concept turned on its head...

Chinese Pianist Plays Anti-American Propaganda Tune at White House

Amazing what we are willing to take here in America in the name of political correctness and going out of our way to not offend. This includes our President bowing to leaders of nations that blatantly espouse evil as a means of controlling the public. In China's case, this refers to forced abortions and many other unspeakable atrocities.

Here is an article breaking down the latest slap in the face given to us by one of the largest owners our debt.

From Infowars.com:

Lang Lang the pianist says he chose it. Chairman Hu Jintao recognized it as soon as he heard it. Patriotic Chinese Internet users were delighted as soon as they saw the videos online. Early morning TV viewers in China knew it would be played an hour or two beforehand. At the White House State dinner on Jan. 19, about six minutes into his set, Lang Lang began tapping out a famous anti-American propaganda melody from the Korean War: the theme song to the movie “Battle on Shangganling Mountain.”

The film depicts a group of “People’s Volunteer Army” soldiers who are first hemmed in at Shanganling (or Triangle Hill) and then, when reinforcements arrive, take up their rifles and counterattack the U.S. military “jackals.”

Obama administration expanding use of Guantánamo Bay: report

Despite the promise to close the Guantánamo Bay detention facility, it is reported that “The Obama administration is preparing to increase the use of military commissions to prosecute Guantánamo detainees, an acknowledgment that the prison in Cuba remains open for business after Congress imposed steep new impediments to closing the facility,” the New York Times reported.
