Obama’s Gun Ban List Is Out
(Alan Korwin)
Here it is, folks, and it is bad news. The framework for legislation is always laid, and the Democrats have the votes to pass anything they want to impose upon us. They really do not believe you need anything more than a brick to defend your home and family.. Look at the list and see how many you own. Remember, it is registration, then confiscation. It has happened in the UK, in Australia, in Europe, in China, and what they have found is that for some... Continue reading...

I last sent Senator Durbin an email about the economic recovery package back in January 2009. I finally received a response a few days ago. Here it is! How detestable!
Dear Mr. Kmiecik:
Thank you for contacting me regarding the economic recovery package. I appreciate hearing from you.
We are facing tough economic times. Americans across the country are feeling the squeeze of this recession as hardworking men and women lose their jobs, state and local governments cut services to a... Continue reading...

This is a letter from The American Conservatives Union:
In case you missed the stories, in Europe President Barack Obama called the United States arrogant.
Barack Obama stood on French soil, a land that our troops liberated in World War II, and called the United States arrogant.
In a nation still holding the remains of thousands of Americans dead from the beaches of Normandy, Obama called the United States arrogant.
It is simply appalling.

Washington, Mar 24 - U.S. Congressman Mike Pence, made the following statement regarding the President’s budget today:
“These are very difficult times in the life of our nation. I saw it firsthand in the faces of farmers and small business owners, with whom I met in Rushville, Indiana, just this last Friday. We sat around a small kitchen table in that farmhouse and I heard how those small business owners were making the tough choices. They were practicing fiscal responsibility and they wer...

Washington, Mar 26 - U.S. Congressman Mike Pence gave the following speech today on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives discussing the Republican Road to Recovery:
“After years of runaway spending at the federal level, the American people want this Congress to put our fiscal house in order. Instead, President Barack Obama has brought forward the most fiscally irresponsible budget in American history. It spends too much, borrows too much, and taxes too much, and the American people...

Obama has only been in office for approximately 70 days. Just 70 days.
But, in just 70 days, President Barack Obama and his liberal majority in Congress have managed to:
- Spend over $700 billion of our taxpayer money on a so-called stimulus plan
- a plan that contained $50 million for salt marsh mice in San Francisco and $8 billion, that is BILLION, for a new high speed rail line between Hollywood and Las Vegas
- a stimulus that saddled every single American family with $9,400 in debt
- a...

Although unemployment rates are at their highest in a generation, earlier this week, the United States Senate used a procedural maneuver to kill an amendment offered by Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL) that would have protected American jobs by extending the critical E-Verify program through September 2014.
The amendment, attached to the $410 Omnibus Appropriations bill (H.R. 1105) to fund the federal government until September 30, 2009, sought to provide a long-term reauthorization of E-Verify....

I received the following from a friend in an email. I thought it was funny and decided to post it here!
History 101
For those that don't know about history ... Here is a condensed version:
Humans originally existed as members of small bands of nomadic
hunters/gatherers. They lived on deer in the mountains during the summer and
would go to the coast and live on fish and lobster in the winter.
The two most important events in all of history were the invention of beer and
the invention of the wheel... Continue reading...

To: Our Sheepdog, Our Cops
From: Lt. Col. Dave Grossman
I've got something I need to say to you, and all of your magnificent 'sheepdog' comrades, and it comes from the heart...
Thirty-two years ago, I was a twenty year old buck sergeant in the 82d Airborne Division, spending over half my time on deployment, leaving behind a young wife and two little babies.
Twenty-two years ago I was a company commander in Panama, leaving a wife and three little boys back at home.
Twelve year... Continue reading...

Reject bailing out irresponsibility - From a Barrington, Illinois Resident
From the Daily Herald - Published: 2/10/2009 12:03 AM
President Obama, you said we must all be responsible. But when a state, for example California, overspends and overpromises itself into a huge hole and then runs to D.C. for a bailout, is that responsible? Surely all the big-spenders will get in line demanding a piece of the action if this is done.
At the same time the productive businesses and families who actuall... Continue reading...

This has been a big news week for politics! So much, I was having a hard time keeping up, and I do apologize for that.
In a little less than three-weeks, I have seen nothing but disaster after disaster, after disaster for our newly elected President and his Administration.
DISASTER 1 (Stimulus): Anytime, any, politician from either political party, starts shouting that "we need to hurry up!" "We must not wait!" "We have to move quickly!" "We need immediate action!" "If we don't take acti... Continue reading...

Here is a copy of emails I sent to Senators Specter, Collins, and Snowe regarding S.1 "American Recovery and Reinvestment Act"
Senator Snowe (Collins and Specter),
I am very disheartened to hear of your support of S.1 "American Recovery and Reinvestment Act". This Bill is on track to bankrupt the United States Government, and generations of Americans to come, with it's big government spending.
I beg of you to look back at our history as American's, to find that big "so-called" stimulus pl... Continue reading...

Senator Durbin,
As your constituent of the State of Illinois, I am writing to respectfully request you vote to oppose S.1 "American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009" as well as any and all future Bills that promote "Big Government" wastefull spending of taxpayer money. I believe this Bill is not a Bill of "Stimulus," but a Bill to expand the United States Government and it's obvious encroachment of it's citizen's Unablienable Rights to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.

Now, there was some inquiry as to who the "Norman Thomas" was that Ronald Reagan referred to in his speech against socialized medicine. I guess, I should have clarified this in my personal weekly editorial and earlier blog.
Reagan starts of this speech by describing Norman Thomas, "Now back in 1927 an American socialist, Norman Thomas, six times candidate for president on the Socialist Party ticket, said the American people would never vote for socialism. But he said under the name of liberal... Continue reading...

It is your responsibility to do with your Life, Liberty, and Pursuit of Happiness as you wish!
