M...I have been speaking and speaking and speaking. My fingers hurt from all the e-mails to my rep and senators. Now I am starting on my state reps to find out if we have secession resolutions being discussed in our state house, and if not, why the hell not.<BR/><BR/>I have feelers out to try to mount legal challenges to every area of this new Pork-pie law that may be suseptible to a "facial" constitutional challenge (before all the courts are packed). Very time consuming and expensive!<BR/><BR/>I joined ACT and several other groups. Now I get seven e-mails a day telling me what I already leaned from a quick a.m. perusal of the blogs and web-news sites. So, except for the 800 petitions I've signed, none of those groups seem to have much planned for the "resistance."<BR/><BR/>I e-mail friends, talk to people - about 1 in 30 seem to care, and about 1 in 10 of those have any interest in doing anything about it. Up til now many have dismissed my concern as "tin-hattism", but after the census coup, and the ACORN funding in the bill some seem to be paying a little more attention.<BR/><BR/>If no one challenges this, and if states don't tell the Feds that we created the Fed gov't and we can "uncreate it", we will lose.<BR/><BR/>We will lose our freedoms of speech, press, religion, assembly, gun-bearing and privacy through this legislation and international treaties and UN resolutions as set forth below.<BR/><BR/>This Pres. and congress will adopt the UN resolutions against defaming Islam, they will take away our guns, the Fairness Doctrine will be applied to all radio, TV and the 'net; they will adopt the UN resolution giving the UN the jurisdiction over certain gun control issues (the small handgun resolution), and will adopt the UN resolution regarding the "family" - giving kids the "rights" to report their parents if they don't like parents' choices for kids, among other things.<BR/><BR/>So speak now, while you still can do so without going to jail. Because when that time comes, you won't be able to tell any of us about it.<BR/><BR/>This juggernaut will hit us before Congress adjourns for the summer.<BR/><BR/>R108Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-40681875459536899242009-02-13T16:55:00.000-05:002009-02-13T16:55:00.000-05:00I believe you are referring to thishttp://wizbangb...I believe you are referring to this<BR/><BR/>http://wizbangblog.com/content/2009/02/07/obama-signs-executive-order-allowing-palestinians-loyal-to-hamas-to-resettle-in-us.phpDaniel Greenfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575285186581875356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-86028536524628033542009-02-13T14:31:00.000-05:002009-02-13T14:31:00.000-05:00What is this I just heard about: Obama signed an o...What is this I just heard about: Obama signed an order paying $$$millions to bring Hamas-related people from Gaza to Long Island NY to live and Americans are footing the bill?

I personally feel that he's just in love with the idea of being a descendant of African slaves who rose to become president of the US centuries later, paying homage to Abraham Lincoln.<BR/><BR/>But he's not a descendant of slaves. When Roots aired for the first time I cried at the finale when the freed slaves stopped their caravans and prayed, being with "Old African!" referring to Kunta Kinte.<BR/><BR/>PBS has been airing a very powerful series called Slavery and the Making of America. Again, you'd think after watching that I would be moved by Obama giving a speech from the White House.<BR/><BR/>Again--nothing.<BR/><BR/>If Obama's fantasy had been anything close to that reality the entire country would have been balling their eyes out, even if they didn't support Obama they would still have been moved by an event so powerful.Keli Atahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089132216830000713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-33895991557187708142009-02-12T14:31:00.000-05:002009-02-12T14:31:00.000-05:00That would account for the deep distrust so many w...That would account for the deep distrust so many working class people have toward Obama.<BR/><BR/>Kind of like the uneasiness of talking to someone who is wearing sunglasses.

As Llyod Benson said to Dan Quayle, I knew John Kennedy and sir, you are no John Kennedy. Well we all know Abraham Lincoln, and you Mr. Obama, are no Abraham Lincoln. For one thing, Lincoln was a humble man, who took it all very seriously and had an honesty which Obama lacks. <BR/><BR/>I do not see Obama as a scholar. He may have gotten good grades, who knows (all the records of his life are sealed). Many like to say he is brilliant because he has a Harvard law degree. I say so what? He is not interested in the details but leaves that to others to do their research and present him with some facts and figures which he can go out and parrot back at the appropriate time, much like Ronald Reagan did. He does not seem to have a good grasp of the economy, but much worse, I do not feel he really cares about it at all. He seems much more concerned about show, being in the spotlight, being center stage. Like a character in a play, he has put on the "costume" of president, but I have not yet felt his heart is in it. In his own mind, he is still understudy for the part.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-19075964411073416542009-02-12T01:52:00.000-05:002009-02-12T01:52:00.000-05:00The whole world runs on personality and looks toda...The whole world runs on personality and looks today.Chana @ Lemon Lime Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11656854855385193867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-40688205476399042882009-02-12T01:23:00.000-05:002009-02-12T01:23:00.000-05:00And yes, Obama's attempts to schmooze with the lit...And yes, Obama's attempts to schmooze with the little people he really holds in contempt is condescending and insulting, as is his attempts to cast himself as the poor little rich boy.Keli Atahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089132216830000713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-32032650897799144972009-02-12T01:21:00.000-05:002009-02-12T01:21:00.000-05:00Obama didn't win an election, he won his own reali...Obama didn't win an election, he won his own reality TV show produced by Oprah Winfrey's Harpo Productions in yep Chicago.<BR/><BR/>Pathetic, isn't it? Who knows, in four years we could well replace voting booths with 800 numbers.<BR/><BR/>Vote for Obama 1-800-IDOLS.<BR/><BR/>I never had much respect for Oprah. She acts like she alone got Americans to read books. FYI to her--many Americans were already reading books. The final straw for me came when she tried her pop psychology on holocaust survivor and novelist Elie Weisel.<BR/><BR/>IF Oprah had indeed read his book Night she would have shut up with her pop psychology and just let Weisel describe what happened. In the preface to Night he makes it clear that he didn't want it to be an analytical book about the Holocaust but rather, a "slim volume" of substance--entirely descriptive. Just the facts, the horrors, as they happened without commentary.<BR/><BR/>Oprah had absolutely nothing to add to it. Nothing.<BR/><BR/>As for Obama--I hope he doesn't make a practice out of interrupting prime time television. ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, and two local channels...all Obama.<BR/><BR/>Call me crazy but it had a "this is your leader" quality to it. You couldn't escape him, aside from turning off the TV.Keli Atahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089132216830000713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-74966109552094256732009-02-11T22:51:00.000-05:002009-02-11T22:51:00.000-05:00Both are supreme narcissists!
