Courage on the Right

n.b. Merillion:*

The courage to speak out!
Seen any lately?  I have.  But only from one man – Newt Gingrich.  From Republicans/Conservatives in Congress, all I’ve heard is a rehash of what problems we have, and that “we must fix them.”  I want to hear anger from our Congress.  I want them to GET MAD!  Why aren’t they ENRAGED??   When they are interviewed on television, they’re so quiet, so polite, so placid.  They don’t get enraged at what is happening within this country, and I get the impression that they don’t care!  I get the impression that they agree with Obama and his radical Liberals who disrespect the rules of Congress and our Government traditions, and whose aim in life is to bring down America!

“Even as each member of the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction voiced concerns about the struggling economy in their opening statements, it was clear right from the start of Thursday’s inaugural “super committee” meeting that the members do not agree on just how jobs should figure into their final deficit-cutting package.”  Read entire article here: http://www.nationaljournal.com/supercommittee/super-committee-s-first-meeting-dominated-by-jobs-20110908

Speaking from outside the first Super Committee meeting, Senator Thune said, “We gotta hope and pray that they can get this job done.”

When is the last time your boss or one of your clients looked at you pleadingly and said, “I hope and pray you can get this job done”?  Ha! Fat Chance!  You get the job done, and done well, or that paycheck or fee are in jeopardy!

Behind the scenes at the Obama administration

I’m very worried about this country.  America. My country.  Are you worried, too?  Sometimes I wonder if anybody cares anymore, especially our Senators and Congressmen.  They’re on vacation.  Obama is campaigning.  Yes, yes, the word is “campaigning.”  Don’t give me any crap about a “talking tour,” “just want to talk to the people, the “folks,” as he likes to call them.

Everyone’s talking about the 2012 election.  It seems nothing will be done until “the election.”  Do you know how much damage can be done to this country in a year and a half?  By people behind the scenes at the White House?  By 2012, I don’t know if there will be much left to be president of.  Room only for a dictator.

And we have a Tea Party leader who had the nerve to ask Obama the question,  “What about Biden calling us terrorists?”  A person on Fox News found that the question made her “so uncomfortable, I just don’t like that it happened.”

Oh Dear!  And one of the men said he thinks we should only ask questions regarding the issues, such as jobs and the economy; that it was wrong to confront Obama that way.  (He was only there to shake hands & smile, not to be confronted with reality.)

Why do some people treat Obama like he’s a frail, delicate child – always defending him, always giving him a pass.  What’s with these people?  If he’s so damn delicate, he should not even be in the position of President.  People, stop with the crap!  Grow up!  Open your eyes!  Question not only Obama, question what is going on – our defense budget gets cut;  the president doesn’t care about whether we have jobs.  He keeps repeating:  “the folks out there worry about not having jobs; they worry about food on the table; they worry about their kids.”

Obama doesn’t really care about any of that.  Talks a good game.  He worries about getting elected in 2012.  And I worry about what our country will lose by 2012.  We’ll lose more jobs; we’ll lose more of our defenses; we’ll lose more of our rights; and more of our freedoms, inch by inch, day by day, regulation by regulation.   And I don’t know if anyone cares enough to stop it – to stop it NOW, before our beloved country is dead and gone.

“Government Waste By the Numbers: Report Identifies Dozens of Overlapping Programs”

Published March 01, 2011 | FoxNews.com

“This report confirms what most Americans assume about their government. We are spending trillions of dollars every year and nobody knows what we are doing. The executive branch doesn’t know. The congressional branch doesn’t know. Nobody knows,” Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., said in a statement Tuesday morning. “This report also shows we could save taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars every year without cutting services.”

We the People of the United States

ANY CHARACTER HERE

ARE YOU ENRAGED ABOUT WHAT’S GOING ON IN AMERICA?  I SURE AM!

I’M ANGRY BECAUSE A CEMETERY IN THE UNITED STATES HAS REMOVED THE HORIZONTAL BARS ON ALL THE CROSSES THERE;

BECAUSE JOE BIDEN SAYS WALL STREET HAS CAUSED OUR PRESENT ECONOMIC DILEMMA.  NO, JOE, YOU AND YOUR LEFT-WING DEMOCRATS DID THAT.  BARNEY FRANK  DID THAT.  OBAMA DID THAT BY SPENDING LIKE IT’S HIS OWN MONEY, INCREASING BY AN ASTONISHING AMOUNT OF MONEY AN ALREADY INCREDIBLY HIGH DEBT AND DEFICIT.  POLITICIANS WHO ARE OBSESSED WITH THEIR OWN RE-ELECTIONS DID THAT;

BECAUSE I HEAR OBAMA & MEMBERS OF CONGRESS TELLING ME THAT WE THE PEOPLE WILL HAVE TO MAKE SACRIFICES TO HELP OUR DESTROYED ECONOMY.  WE HAVE TO SACRIFICE?  NO, YOU MAKE THE SACRIFICES.  YOU DO WITHOUT YOUR PAYCHECKS.  LOTS OF U.S. CITIZENS ARE DOING WITHOUT THEIR PAYCHECKS BECAUSE OF YOU!

BECAUSE THOSE WE ELECTED DIDN’T DO ANYTHING ABOUT OUR DEBT AND DEFICIT A LONG TIME AGO;

BECAUSE PRES. GEORGE BUSH IGNORED PLEAS FROM THE AMERICAN PEOPLE TO PUT A STOP TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, AND OBAMA AND HIS ADMINISTRATION NOT ONLY DO NOTHING, BUT ALSO TREAT THE GOVERNOR AND THE PEOPLE OF ARIZONA AS ENEMIES OF AMERICA;

BECAUSE I DON’T SEE JOHN BOEHNER STANDING BEFORE US AND ACTING LIKE HE’S ENRAGED ABOUT WHERE THIS ADMINISTRATION IS TAKING US.  WHERE’S THE ANGER FROM REPUBLICANS, CONSERVATIVES?  IS EVERYTHING GOING ON TODAY OK WITH ALL OF YOU?

BECAUSE SO MANY OF OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS DON’T CARE WHAT HAPPENS TO THIS COUNTRY.  HEY, DON’T YOU LIVE HERE, TOO?

BECAUSE THERE ARE SO MANY LIARS IN THIS ADMINISTRATION.  I’M ANGRY THAT THOSE WHO KNOW ABOUT THIS DISHONESTY ARE AFRAID TO CALL OUT THE LIARS, AND IF THEY COURAGEOUSLY DO CALL THEM OUT, THEY ARE ASKED TO APOLOGIZE!  NO MORE APOLOGIZING FOR TELLING THE TRUTH!

PEOPLE YOU AND I HAVE ELECTED TO OFFICE, TRUSTING IN THEIR INTEGRITY, ARE LIARS.  THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.  I PARTICULARLY HATE PRESIDENTS, SENATORS, & REPRESENTATIVES WHO LIE TO ME.

I’M ANGRY BECAUSE IN RED HOOK, BROOKLYN, CITIZENS WANT TO HONOR SEVEN FIREFIGHTERS KILLED ON 9/11 BY NAMING A STREET FOR THEM “SEVEN IN HEAVEN.”  A GROUP OF ATHEISTS IS FIGHTING AGAINST THIS BECAUSE THE WORD “HEAVEN” IS USED, & THEY FEEL “INSULTED.”  MESSAGE TO THIS GROUP:  BE AN ATHEIST. I DON’T GIVE A CRAP WHAT YOU ARE.  I’LL ALLOW YOU TO BE AN ATHEIST.  AND YOU WILL ALLOW ME TO BE A CHRISTIAN, OR WHATEVER I DAMN WELL WANT TO BE.  WHY DON’T YOU SHUT UP.

THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES WANTS TO DESTROY THE UNITED STATES.  HOW ABOUT THAT, CONGRESS?

AND ABOUT OUR CONSTITUTION:  WE AMERICANS WHO CARE ABOUT AMERICA WILL NOT ALLOW YOU WHO DON’T CARE TO DO AWAY WITH THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

BE IT KNOWN BY ALL:

THE WORDS OF THE AMERICAN “PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE” ARE NOT A TOPIC FOR LEFT-WING DISCUSSION.

THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES DO NOT REQUIRE THE APPROVAL OF MEXICO.

WHEN LEFT-WING DEMOCRATS RESORT TO CALLING OTHERS “RACISTS!” IT’S BECAUSE THEY ARE UNABLE TO CONFRONT THE TRUTH.

AND NOW:

FROM THE STRUCTURE AND LEGALITY OF ELLIS ISLAND, WHICH HELPED TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT, TO THE CHAOS AND DEATH OF THE AMERICAN/MEXICAN BORDER; TO THE CHAOS AND DEATH IN NORWAY – THERE IS A CONNECTION, A THREAD.

I HEARD THAT WE MUST NOT USE CAPITAL LETTERS WHEN WRITING BLOGS, ETC., AS PEOPLE WILL THINK WE ARE “SHOUTING.”

I AM SHOUTING:

“ALL THAT IS NECESSARY FOR THE TRIUMPH OF EVIL IS THAT GOOD MEN DO NOTHING.”

Edmund Burke
