One Citizen Speaking...

VETERANS' DAY - 2014 Posted: 11 Nov 2014 02:03 PM PST Honoring our troops on today’s Veterans Day …  Lest we not forget …  Jane Fonda, American Traitor …  As we go about our daily tasks, let us for a moment consider the service of Senator John McCain, a prisoner of war who suffered terribly at the hands of our enemy while just mere miles away a far-left liberal, Jane Fonda, laughed and sat on an anti-aircraft gun as she called our American troops “war criminals. Aside from visiting villages, hospitals, schools, and factories, Fonda also posed for pictures in which she was shown applauding North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gunners, was photographed peering into the sights of an NVA anti-aircraft artillery launcher, and made ten propagandistic Tokyo Rose-like radio broadcasts in which she denounced American political and military  leaders as "war criminals." She also spoke with eight American POWs at a carefully arranged "press conference," POWs who had been tortured by their North Vietnamese captors to force them to meet with Fonda, deny they had been tortured, and decry the American war effort. <Source> And an accounting which is not complete … For some as yet unexplained reason, John McCain approved legislation which has kept Americans from getting a complete accounting of our MIAs from Viet Nam. The legislation insured that “… the Defense Department is not obligated to tell the public about prisoners believed alive in captivity and what efforts are being made to rescue them. It only has to notify the White House and the intelligence committees in the Senate and House. The committees are forbidden under law from releasing such information.” For those who wish to read an interesting article on McCain’s efforts to prevent a full and complete accounting of MIAs, it can be found at “ The War Secrets Sen. John McCain Hides: Former POW Fights Public Access To POW/MIA Files.” Bottom line … Our nation and each citizen owes a unpayable debt to those who risk life and limb to protect our right to prosper or protest in complete freedom from a totalitarian government. If you see a soldier in uniform, thank them for their service – especially since it is completely voluntary. If you see a veteran down on his luck, extend a helping hand. Do not let our people and our government forget the sacrifice made by our troops. Do not let those who would denigrate and demean our military go unchallenged. Do not let the media spin a story that is contemptuous of those who protect our freedom without pointing out that it may have been the actions relatively few individuals involved and they do not represent the military. And, no matter what the spin, you are not a private citizen exercising your “free speech rights” when you give aid and comfort to America’s enemies by making propaganda announcements --  you are a traitor. Most of all, tell those in the far-left who are openly anti-military and anti-America where to step off. <insert strong language message here>    -- steve

OBAMACARE FOR THE INTERNET: PRESIDENT OBAMA'S CONTINUED LYING ABOUT THE NEED FOR GOVERNMENT REGULATION OF THE INTERNET Posted: 10 Nov 2014 09:36 PM PST Once again, we find the President of the United States, Barack Obama lying to the American people -- this time about a free and open internet that the progressive socialist democrats want to bring under government control prior to the 2016 elections. While Obama prattles on about free and open – what he really is saying is that the GOVERNMENT needs to take control of the Internet to PROTECT YOUR INTERESTS. Just like the bastards told you they needed to take control over a functioning healthcare system to keep medical insurance costs down and provide coverage for pre-existing conditions. How’s that working out for people. President Obama today urged the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to take up the strongest possible rules to protect net neutrality, the principle that says Internet service providers (ISPs) should treat all internet traffic equally. Fool me once, shame on you – fool me twice, shame on me … Who is going to hold President Barack Obama and his cadre of progressive socialist democrats responsible for perpetrating the Obamacare fraud upon the American people and continuing to lie about things large and small as he pursued his corrupt political agenda. The cat is out of the bag … Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber bragging about deceiving the American people by writing the bill in a tortured way to fool the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office and Americans, who he apparently thinks are stupid …   “This bill was written in a tortured way to make sure CBO did not score the mandate as taxes.  If CBO scored the mandate as taxes, the bill dies, okay?  So it's written to do that.  In terms of risk-rated subsidies, if you had a law which said healthy people are gonna pay in... If you made it explicit the healthy people pay in and sick people get money, it would not have passed, okay?  Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage.  And basically, you know, call it the stupidity of American voter or whatever. But basically that was really, really critical to getting the thing to pass.”—Jonathan Gruber There is no doubt that Gruber is both a very smart guy and a progressive socialist democrat … In 2009–10 MIT Economist Jonathan Gruber served as a technical consultant to the Obama Administration and worked with both the administration and Congress to help craft the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, often referred to as the ACA or "Obamacare.”The act was signed into law in March 2010, and Gruber has been described as an "architect", "writer", and "consultant" of the legislation. He was widely interviewed and quoted during the roll-out of the legislation. <Source> And the democrats knew all along that the bill was unconstitutional and unpalatable to the American people … Not one legislator read or understood the bill before voting on it. Relying on Nancy "We Have to Pass the Bill So That You Can Find Out What Is In It" Pelosi’s leadership and Harry Reid’s Senate trickery … House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) packaged the Senate-passed Obamacare bill and a House reconciliation measure into one measure.  Then the House rules committee put forth a rule that allowed the Senate-passed Obamacare bill to pass the House without a vote.  The rule provided that the Affordable Care Act was deemed to have passed when the House passes the  reconciliation measure. But the lying liar who lied the most to the American people was Barack Obama … • Remarks at the American Medical Association, June 15, 2009: "I know that there are millions of Americans who are content with their health care coverage — they like their plan and, most importantly, they value their relationship with their doctor. They trust you. And that means that no matter how we reform health care, we will keep this promise to the American people: If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor, period. If you like your health care plan, you'll be able to keep your health care plan, period. No one will take it away, no matter what." The bottom line … You cannot trust the progressive socialist democrats in either foreign or domestic policy. The 2014 voters have sent the progressive socialist democrats a strong message that their governance was not adequate and changes must be made forthwith. Unfortunately, Obama – or should I say puppet-master Valerie Jarrett – appears to ignore what the voters have said and are planning to use their “lame duck” Congress to ram through as many biased bills as possible. Including the election of another Obama “stooge” to replace Attorney General Eric Holder and his sworn duty to protect Obama at all costs. Obama and his cadre of progressive socialist democrats have violated the Constitution of the United States and subverted many laws of our land. It is time to demand that the GOP push back with principled leadership – and I certainly do not mean RINO progressives such as the very wishy-washy Jeb Bush. To allow Obama and the FCC to take control of the Internet in the “guise of fairness and openness” is as big of a lie as “you can keep your healthcare plan and doctor. Period.” The man and his corrupt, inept, and incompetent cronies can’t be trusted on anything of political importance. KEEP THE GOVERNMENT’S DIRTY HANDS OFF OUR INTERNET! -- steve
