The Battle Hymn of the 2012 Election

Over the weekend, I was struck by the words of Paul Ryan at a rally in Manassas Virginia.

It was how he opened his comments.

What he said has been the clarion call of conservatives since the 2010 midterm election.

As the music played at each rally announcing Paul Ryan as Mitt Romney’s running mate, I could help but think…

We need an anthem. No…We need a battle song.

What we DON:T need is a rehashed song bent and twisted to meet the need. Any old song will do if that’s the criteria.

No.

What we need is a  song, written by someone who feels the way WE do. A song which expresses OUR clarion call.

We need a song which speaks directly to US, of who WE are and to what WE must do.

It needs to be a song OF the People, BY the People and FOR the people.

That’s why, when I heard Paul Ryan’s opening words in Manassas on Saturday…I knew EXACTLY what our song should be.

EXACTLY!!!

If you are not yet familiar with Ava Aston…You should be.

A while back, I found the song that she wrote and it shook me to the core.

DID OBAMA ADMIT HIS SOCIALIST VISION?

On Saturday, throughout the announcement that Paul Ryan is Mitt Romney’s Vice Presidential running mate, both men spoke about  their VISION  for America.

It must be noted that a VISION is far different than a POLICY.

Politically speaking, POLICY is how one intends to achieve the VISION. If 2 different people share the same VISION but believe in different POLICIES to achieve that vision, a healthy debate can take place as to the best way to get there.

However…

If they have diametrically opposed VISIONS, then there exists an ideological rift.

This is VERY important.

Okay. On Saturday, both Romney and Ryan expressed their VISIONS.

First, Mitt Romney stepped to the microphone and said of Paul Ryan:

“His leadership begins with character and values.”

Romney went on to state:

A Question for the Anybody But Mitt Crowd

Over a considerable amount of time and through the ability to do copious amounts of research, I have become reasonably good at figuring out political quandaries.

I don’t always get it exactly right but, I honestly wish I weren’t right as often as I am.

Finding the answers to questions regarding political ideology, political history, how dots are connected and the end games of certain politicians have become a passion.

I’d like to think I’ve become pretty good at it.

Currently, however, the answer to a most perplexing political question eludes me.

I’m asking for your help.

There is no cash prize involved, like the sum given to the brilliant mind which created the $50.00 light bulb but rest assured, you’ll have my unending gratitude.

Please, somebody…Explain to me exactly how…

Splitting the 2012 presidential vote between Romney, Gingrich, Paul, Cain, Palin, Johnson, Dummett, Tittle and any other number of known or unknown candidates of personal choice will defeat Obama.

Conservatives agree, after all, that Obama needs to be defeated and that if he isn’t, the situation is dire.

In that, at least, there IS agreement.

Thus, the quandary…

Obama to Biden: “Oh…Cabin Boy…”

America now has a choice.

Romney/Ryan or Obama/Biden.

The former stands for everything the latter doesn’t and liberal/socialists know it.

Yesterday, I predicted the liberal/socialist response and it wasn’t hard to see coming. Liberals are scared and they’re trying to do everything they can to fake glee over the announcement that Paul Ryan is the VP choice.

It became very obvious very quickly that the pre-approved liberal talking points went out in a hurry and equally clear that liberal pundits had been sweating it out waiting on those emails.

One by one, each repeated the exact same line. Word for word.

“The Paul Ryan plan will end Medicare as we know it.”

Interview after interview, pundit after pundit, the liberal/socialist line was repeated over and over again.

“The Paul Ryan plan will end Medicare as we know it.”

You’re darn right it will and what liberal/socialists don’t want you to know is exactly what Paul Ryan DOES know…

If we don’t end Medicare…”AS WE KNOW IT…” it will come to an end altogether.

THE TICKET IS SET…ROMNEY/RYAN!!!!!

The Image says it all.

Mitt Romney has officially chosen Wisconsin’s Paul Ryan to round out the Republican Ticket.

This is a GREAT choice.

Paul Ryan, the 28 year old wiz kid who became a Congressman from Wisconsin 14 years ago is now the 42 year old budget genius who will, in a couple of weeks, become the Vice Presidential nominee!!!

Yesterday, on Right and Wrong Radio with John Matthews, I said that, from the short, short list, if Romney wanted to refocus the dialogue and the discussion on the issues that matter the most in this election…The economy, unemployment, jobs and the deficit…Paul Ryan would be THE best VP choice.

While the Obama campaign flounder about trying to talk about anything BUT the issues…

A Romney/Ryan ticket will HAMMER on those issues AND on Obama’s FAILURES regarding those issues!!!

Paul Ryan has put forth budget proposal after budget proposal which have been passed by the house only to be referred to as DOA and put on dusty back shelves by Harry Reid in the senate and never voted upon there.

Contrast that to OBAMA’S budget proposals which HAVE been voted on in the senate and have NEVER RECEIVED A SINGLE VOTE!!!

Mitt Romney, in the 80 some odd days leading up to the election will highlight America’s future greatness while Paul Ryan will focus on Obama’s 4 years of economic failure.

That is a 2 front plan while Obama has…nothing.

Time To Leave the United Nations of Despots

It’s beyond the pale.

Disgusting.

It’s downright OBSCENE and exactly what we should expect from the world’s most corrupt organization.

Omar Al-Bashir, the Sudanese warlord and a man with a warrant out for his arrest by the International Criminal Court is about to be named to the United Nations Human Rights Council.

That warrant, by the way, is directly related to…GENOCIDE…Carried out by HIS regime in Darfur!!!

GENOCIDE!!!

The United Nations, by allowing such a vile MURDERER to sit on that council is literally making the ABSURD and VILE argument that…

GENOCIDE is a basic human right!!!!!

My God.

And just exactly who is “Omar the GENOCIDAL Maniac” replacing on the U.N. Human Rights Council???

I hope you’re sitting down…

Obama…STFU You Lying Sack of CRAP

So desperate is the liberal press to demonize conservatives that they will, as Rahm Emanuel so famously put it, “Never let a crisis go to waste.”

They continue to fall on their collective faces in the process.

It really started with the advent of the Tea Party movement.

Labels like “Astroturf” didn’t stick so, liberals tried a more demonizing approach by attempting to slap labels like, “angry mobs” “insane” “violent” “racist” and others on the Tea Party faithful.

All those labels were manufactured and false.

Try as they may, liberals just couldn’t make the labels stick because the actions, the demeanor, the nature and the principles of conservatives just kept proving them wrong.

Then came the horrible happenings in Tucson Arizona back in January 2011.

That’s when Congresswoman Gabby Giffords was shot along with many others and 6 people, including a 9 year old girl were killed.

Instantly, the liberal media jumped all over the crisis, not wanting to let it go to waste and they, as fast as they could, labeled Jerod Laughner as a right wing extremist who was prompted into his horrific actions by Sarah Palin.

Wrong again.

Laughner had not a hint of a tie to any conservative organization nor to Sarah Palin in any way, shape or form.

No matter. The left and their media are would not be swayed from their chosen but, clearly false path.

Along came the tragic event in Aurora Colorado.

Nitwits, Hair Brains and Socialists…OH MY!!!!

Okay…Let me see if I have this straight.

Hair Brained Harry Reid who has offered such pearls of wisdom as these:

“The tea party will disappear as soon as the economy gets better and the economy is getting better all the time.”

“Until the Republicans get real, we can’t do [spending bills], because [House Republicans] have refused to adhere to the law that guides this country.”

“Last year, Amonix CEO Brian Robertson was tragically killed in a plane crash and unfortunately the company was unable to recover from this difficult time.”

“Today is a big day in America. Only 36,000 people lost their jobs today, which is really good.”

“This war is lost and the surge is not accomplishing anything.”

At one point Hair Brained Harry said THIS about John Roberts…

Obama Cuts NASA Budget, Takes Credit for Success

Just 2 months ago, NASA canceled the X-Ray Telescope Mission due to budget cuts.

Obama’s proposed 2013 budget, which, like all his budgets, failed to garner a single vote in the Senate, slashed $300 million dollars from NASA.

Last night, the $2.5 BILLION dollar Curiosity Mars Rover made a successful landing on our neighboring planet and, always one to grab for credit, the Obama white house released this statement:

“Tonight, on the planet Mars, the United States of America made history.

The successful landing of Curiosity – the most sophisticated roving laboratory ever to land on another planet – marks an unprecedented feat of technology that will stand as a point of national pride far into the future. It proves that even the longest of odds are no match for our unique blend of ingenuity and determination.

Tonight’s success, delivered by NASA, parallels our major steps forward towards a vision for a new partnership with American companies to send American astronauts into space on American spacecraft. That partnership will save taxpayer dollars while allowing NASA to do what it has always done best – push the very boundaries of human knowledge. And tonight’s success reminds us that our preeminence – not just in space, but here on Earth – depends on continuing to invest wisely in the innovation, technology, and basic research that has always made our economy the envy of the world.

Isn’t that special?

Is Obama a “Dreamer???”

Is it simple pandering to a voting bloc in the months leading to the election or, is it something far, far worse?

Frankly, it’s hard to tell and while neither is good, the outcome, either way, it is clearly against the very principles of this nation.

Last week, it came to light that an ICE agent was threatened with punishment…A 3 day suspension…And for WHAT exactly?

Enforcing the law.

The ICE agent in question arrested a 35 year old ILLEGAL immigrant because that ILLEGAL alien had amassed 10 traffic violations.

For an American citizen, according to the Newark Police Department, such an arrest would have landed the arrestee in jail.

In THIS case…ICE supervisors ordered the ILLEGAL alien to be RELEASED and now, the Agent who made the arrest is facing a 3 day suspension.

Why???

BECAUSE THE 35 YEAR OLD ILLEGAL ALIEN WITH 10 TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS IS “NOT A HIGH PRIORITY TARGET.”

Not a high priority target.

Tell THAT to Zach and Aileen Smith who, in a separate incident, were involved in a vehicle crash when their car was struck by…AN ILLEGAL ALIEN WHO HAD 4 DUI’s ON HIS RECORD!!! Aileen was 7 months pregnant and after being rushed to the hospital for an emergency C-Section found that her baby did NOT survive the crash.
