It’s Good for the Goose – SCREW the Gander

Posted on by

Yesterday…The Emperor granted to Pravda and Fox News, a Propaganda Conference.

How nice.

Throughout his telling of lies, The Emperor continually referred to raising the debt ceiling and the Republicans desire NOT to do so, as going to a restaurant and not paying the bill.

Excuse me but…If I didn’t have the money…If YOU didn’t have the money…WE wouldn’t GO to a restaurant for dinner.

At one point, the Emperor actually quoted John Boehner during LAST year’s debt ceiling debate in order to make his point on why there should be no argument about doing it AGAIN.

Ummm…Excuse me AGAIN but…

Back in 2006…The Emperor HIMSELF said…and I quote…

“The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies. … Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that ‘the buck stops here. Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better.”

I mean if we’re going to bandy about quotes regarding the debt ceiling which is directly relatable to our debt…

Weekend Edition: Standing UP For Veterans – Let’s ROLL!!!

Posted on by

This weekend, I would like to let my fellow Patriots in on a VERY special project.

We hear every day about Veterans who are unemployed.

It’s shameful. These are our heroes.

Many Veterans have great ideas and dreams of having their OWN business. What they lack is the knowledge or the capital to turn those dreams into reality.

In today’s uncertain economy and amid news of businesses cutting back on employee’s hours and staff numbers altogether, it’s harder than ever for our Veteran heroes to find work.

What if I told you that YOU could help change all that?

YOU CAN!!!

First, if YOU are a Veteran or KNOW a Veteran, MAKE SURE THEY SEE THIS ARTICLE. THIS WILL CHANGE LIVES!!!

Many of you are familiar with Don Smith and the Don Smith Show.

It has been my great pleasure to appear, many times, as a gust on Don’s show over the last couple of years. Don is one of the great Conservative voices in radio.

When Don called me a few days ago, asking a favor, and telling me it was for our Veterans…I had but one question.

How can I help?

Letter to Liberals, Socialists and Assorted Idiots

Posted on by

Dear Liberals, Socialists and Assorted Idiots,

We tried to tell you but YOU told US we were crazy.

You got your 1st paycheck of 2013 last Friday and many, MANY of you were astonished that it was smaller than it was the Friday before.

Guess what?

Elections have consequences.

YOU voted for what you DIDN’T get in your paychecks…TWICE.

You did and YOU know it.

For the last 4 years, the Emperor has made it very clear that he wanted to stick it to the “rich” and hike THEIR taxes.

WE, as conservatives, TRIED to tell you that HE was lying.

We tried and we tried and every time we told you he was going to hike YOUR taxes, even though YOU are part of the MIDDLE CLASS that the Emperor said MUST NOT be harmed by higher taxes…

YOU told us that WE had NO IDEA what we were talking about.

YOU called US crazy. You called US names.

YOU said WE were lying.

Well, now that you’ve seen your paychecks, what do you think?

77% of ALL Americans, regardless of their class, lower, middle or upper, have had their taxes jacked up.

YOU are among them.

WE were telling YOU the TRUTH.

Remember Obamacare?

Well, THAT’S just PART of your current tax hike.

We told you so.

Your payroll tax went up too, didn’t it?

Friday Fume

Posted on by

So friends…as Facebook tries their level best to clamp down on The National Patriot and our fellow CONSERVATIVE bloggers…We press on. We hope you will share the Friday Fume, our other articles and those of our great blogger friends found on our blog roll every day in conservative FB groups and with your friends.

It’s been another tough week but…WE’RE NOT GOING AWAY!!!

Our thanks too, to the Examiner, for running an article and looking into the FB matter yesterday…If we all stand together…WE WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!!

Now that I have THAT off my chest…It’s time to get down to the serious business of having some fun at the expense of socialists, liberals and the idiots who never fail to do the dumbest things.

Here we go…

Today IS Friday and…

I’m fuming.

Well…

Obama’s LAPDOG will still be fetching the Emperor’s HOUSE slippers for the next 2 years.

John Boehner, who has spent the last 2 years listing hard to port, has been reelected to the Speakers chair.

After the vote, Nancy Pelosi who again came in second, made her speech in which she…AGAIN…called our nation a DEMOCRACY!!!

Ummm…

WE’RE A REPUBLIC AND IF YA DON’T KNOW THE DIFFERENCE…SHUT YOUR BOTOXED PIE HOLE!!!!!

Good grief.

Then of course, it was Boehner’s turn to speak.

HOW EMBARRASSING!!!!!

Unconstitutional Fiscal Cliff Deals for Socialist Dummies

Posted on by

How will the new UNCONSTITUTIONAL fiscal cliff tax deal effect our economy?

I’ll get back to that but first…

Let me count the ways.

First of all, the new legislation sets the standard for “rich” at $400k for an individual or $450k for a family rather than the $250k originally desired by the Emperor.

This will leave some small business in the NON rich category but not ALL small businesses.

Those small businesses which exceed the “rich” limit will have some options available to them. They can simply put the breaks on any planned growth of their business which will be the case for those approaching the limit or, they can downsize if they are just barely OVER the limit.

What will be the MOST likely scenario will be businesses raising the cost of goods or services to compensate for their increased tax bill.

THAT, of course means, those who BUY those goods or services will have THEIR taxes raised by proxy.

Then there is the fact that EVERYBODY…not just the “rich” will see a tax increase.

That’s right…Part of the new fiscal cliff tax deal is that everybody…EVERYBODY will see their PAYROLL taxes go UP which means EVERYBODY will have LESS take home pay.

Nice huh?

All that talk from the Emperor during his campaign about making sure that the middle class would NOT have their taxes raised?

We Have Officially Gone Over the Sanity Cliff

Posted on by

Maybe the Mayans were right and we’re all too apathetic to notice that the world really has come to an end.

We are no longer facing the fiscal cliff…We’ve officially gone over it, for now. Today, maybe tomorrow or perhaps later in the week, the House will attempt something only seen previously in cartoons…Hanging in mid-air, turning around and trying to run back to safety before gravity sets in.

Last night, the senate passed a sort of, almost, not really fix for the fiscal crisis in that it included no spending cuts, doesn’t deal at all with sequester and only raises taxes on those making $400k per year.

The house hasn’t voted yet, and they might not like it at all since they didn’t like it when the tax hikes hit those making a million or more.

Given the fact that congress has a single digit approval rating, they waited until AFTER the last minute to do anything on this fiscal cliff issue and the senate hasn’t passed a budget in 1400 days or so…

Naturally they all deserve a raise.

Right?

I mean, we’re now 16.4 TRILLION dollars in debt, taxes are going up, spending is NOT going down and Congress  is basically waiving the white flag so…Obama signs an executive order giving them all a raise.

That ONLY makes sense if the world actually HAS ended…Right?

$16.4 trillion dollars in debt…

Weekend Edition: 2013 – Resolve Over Resolutions

Posted on by

While others busy themselves making predictions for the New Year and others with formulating resolutions, I have neither the time nor the patience for either.

Instead, I will relate MY RESOLVE for the New Year.

Before I begin, you should know that I mean these wholeheartedly and I am quite serious about each and every one of them.

So…2013…Where should I begin?

First…I intend to start an online petition which, should it gain 1 million signatures, would outlaw all online petitions.

Seriously…Name ONE online petition which has EVER gained the required number of signatures and has then gone on to accomplish ANYTHING. Name ONE. Go ahead…We’re all waiting…

I…And I suspect YOU…Are bombarded by such petitions DAILY and they are ALL posted as though the future of the world depends on YOU signing the thing. Well…Guess what?

IT DOESN’T and YOUR signature might make you FEEL good but, in reality…IT’S ALMOST AS MEANINGFUL AS AN EMAIL FROM A NIGERIAN PRINCE.

I’ll get the ball rolling and if YOU’LL just sign on…WE CAN STOP ONLINE PETITIONS FOR ALL TIME!!!!

Second…I am finished with listening to ANY “End of the World” prophecy garbage.

It’s not because I feel it is a waste of time or nonsense.

It’s because I simply can’t take any more of that sort of disappointment.

EVERY damned time SOMEBODY says the world is going to end…IT DOESN’T.

I Don’t Need a Drone to Identify BULLCRAP!!!

Posted on by

Think about it…When WAS the last time YOU were invited to DISCUSS anything on a NATIONAL scale???

When???

NEVER.

That’s because there is NO SUCH THING as a NATIONAL DISCUSSION.

But that is exactly what the socialists say they want…A national discussion regarding the 2nd Amendment and gun control.

“I think when we talk about the assault weapons ban that was in place in the U.S., to have allowed that to have gone away …These are assault weapons. You don’t hunt deer with these things.”

Those were the words, spoken yesterday by Connecticut Governor Dannel Malloy.

His words are being echoed far and wide by socialists elected or not, on social media, news reports and by dictator loving socialist pundits.

Hey…America…

WAKE UP!!!

You can NOT alter the meaning of the Constitution.

The 2nd Amendment was NOT meant to preserve an individual’s right to go hunting regardless of what you WANT everyone to believe and no matter HOW many times you repeat the lie.

Were that the case, our original Patriots would have been allowed bows and arrows…

Friday Fume

Posted on by

So, amid lunacy from socialists caught on camera dishing out violence in Lansing as our Emperor prepares for a 4 MILLION DOLLAR vacation as the rest of us head for the FISCAL CLIFF because HE wants to SOAK the so-called “rich” we have accomplished some GOOD things this week.

We’ve helped Clint Tarver get back on HIS feet after his hotdog stand was destroyed by socialist goons AND…We sent off THOUSANDS and THOUSANDS of Christmas cards to our military Heroes!!!

Seriously…WAY TO GO NATIONAL PATRIOT READERS!!!

But, let’s face it…right now, we bobbing along in a life raft of decency on a sea  socialist idiocracy.

Hey…at least we have Friday and friends…

I’m fuming.

I guess the EPA isn’t regulating ENOUGH of our lives yet and so…In Virginia…the Marxist agency now wants to regulate…

RAIN!!!

First of all…in the last 90 days…the EPA has enacted 900 NEW REGULATIONS and they were all held in secret UNTIL AFTER THE ELECTION!!!

Now…They have determined that RAIN, at least in Virginia…IS A POLLUTANT!!!

When it rains hard…apparently, rainwater runs off and the EPA in their “wisdom” has decreed that more GRASS is needed to ABSORB the rain.

So what does it mean???

Clint Tarver’s Business Destroyed by Union Goons

Posted on by

Have you heard what happened to Clint Tarver at the hands of labor union goons in Michigan?

Have you heard about how WE can help Mr. Tarver???

I’ll get to that.

As the mainstream media ignores the violence which took place in Lansing regarding the Right to Work legislation, we will not.

The true nature of unions came shining through…again…just as it did a year ago in Madison Wisconsin.

Union Membership has been dwindling for decades and now, in the private sector, less than 8% are union employed. As Michigan passed legislation to become the nation’s 24th Right to Work state, a move aimed at keeping more businesses IN Michigan, attracting NEW businesses to the state and bringing more population to the state, unions lashed out violently and a good deal of it was caught on video.

One suspects that a couple of those union goons responsible for the violence outside the Michigan State Capital on Tuesday spent their day yesterday, in hiding.

One, tentatively identified as Chris Opalewski, a name stitched on his jacket and the back of his helmet, was caught on video helping to destroy a tent owned by Americans for Prosperity.
