Found this awesome video on the web today (h/t HotAir). A modern song set to Founding Father principles.
Kind of a cool way to reach the younger generation, don’t you think? I believe there’s a movement afoot to educate everyone. We all need to be reconnected with our history and our country’s founding – without it, we’re lost.
On Fox & Friends yesterday morning, retired Florida veteran, Gene Gartman, was on to explain and showcase a series of his pithy billboard signs, asking his fellow Americans to fight government corruption. Apparently some think Gartman’s billboards are controversial, but hey…when isn’t it controversial to be an outspoken patriot?
Mr. Gartman explains the display of the U.S. flag flying upside down on his billboard signs. I am with him on that, as I’ve got my American flag sticker oriented in the same way on my rear window of my SUV, just below my “Defend America/Fight Obama!” sticker. Heh.
It’s interesting to note that lately I’ve gotten MANY ‘thumbs ups’ from other drivers behind me and around me. We, indeed, are not alone.
Wow… Glenn unleashed holy hell today over several issues, the least of which was Obama’s dithering on his Afghanistan policy decision. No one was spared his wrath, including Congress in general, but specifically Jack Murtha.
Since when have our troops been a budgetary concern, especially since they’re actively involved in a war overseas? Oh, yeah… since Obama decided to consider budgetary items ONLY as it concerns the troops and support for them.
I don’t have family in Afghanistan or Iraq, but I have many friends who are there, and they corroborate Glenn’s outrage. Obama dithers while troops die…all the while he plans yet another party for the White House, where all of Hollywood’s elite stars are invited to attend. What a sham.
To make things worse, I have to ask if you remember the civilian Blackwater contractors who were murdered, burned, mutilated and hung from a bridge in Fallujah. Do you? Well apparently some Navy SEALs found the high-value operative behind that atrocity. But what is the current administration doing? The detainee who is responsible for those atrocities told authorities he was punched in the face during questioning when they were found. Somebody call these douchebags a waaahmbulance.
What do the Navy SEALs get in return? A court martial for assault. Are you freakin’ kidding me? I knew about Hillary’s “testicle lock box,” but since when did it become necessary to pass that lockbox down to the Obama administration and his DoD/DoJ?
This is a travesty of epic proportions. I maintain that Obama will not last a full first term – I think he will be impeached for absolute dereliction of duty and malfeasance in office.
Remember tonight while Hollywood dines on the finest arugula spinich tonight, soldiers in Afghanistan await a decision by the “Chosen One” on Gen. McChrystal’s recommendations.
How much farther can outrage go? I don’t really know…I’m growing numb and that’s a bad thing, but jeebus… when will this insanity stop?
Can’t wait for 2010 & 2012. Our troops deserve better than a “budgetary assessment.”
Glenn Beck today reflected on Van Jones’ resignation over this past weekened, saying he didn’t deserve credit for it, although he received just that all weekend long via Twitter, email and voice mail. Glenn wonders, as do I, why the ONLY thing folks seemingly find a problem with is his participation as a 9/11 “truther.”
A truther? That’s it? That’s all folks are concerned about? There is MUCH more disturbing information about Jones that should be MORE troubling to ALL Americans! Examples include his past self-avowed proclamation as a Communist, his work as a revolutionary for S.T.O.R.M., his respect and admiration of Che & other dictators, his link to the groups who want to free cop-killer Mumia Abu Jamal (also a self-avowed Communist), his links with the California “CopWatch” group, his assertion that “white polluters” were intentionally poisoning people of color, his desires to use the Green movement to get “social justice” for people of color, his disdain for the people of Isreal, his past as a black nationalist, and on and on and on. I could go for much longer, but I think you get my point.
The most troubling aspect of this whole thing to me is this: Even though Van Jones resigned, the White House never said they disagreed with Jones’ politics; only that they were sad to see him go.
Folks, I ask you to watch this video a few times and ask yourself a few questions:
- Can you support a president who does not disavow the beliefs of a man like Van Jones?
- How many other of the “czars” are there in the Obama Administration that we need to know about?
- If the White House doesn’t vet people like Van Jones, even with the cabinet-level position questionnaire others hand to answer, how can you trust any of their other unaccountable appointments?
- Are you willing to blindly trust anything that this administration, and/or the Democrat-controlled Congress tries to thrust upon this nation?
If you answered “no” or “I’m not sure” to ANY of these questions folks, we are in trouble. As you saw today, as Van Jones is on the way out, Ron Bloom is the newest czar of Manufacturing. How much longer will you allow this to continue? And don’t give me this crap about “what can I do?” You can do your due diligence as AMERICANS, stand up and tell this government you will NOT TAKE THIS ANYMORE!
Obama and Congress…DON’T TREAD ON ME!!!!
I’ll see you guys next Saturday in D.C. I’ll be there for the march, and I hope to see you there, as well. It’s time to make our voices heard. We are the silent majority NO MORE!
Griff Jenkins in his nightly update of the Tea Party Express making its way to D.C. for the March on 9/12. Tonight he was in Waco, and spoke to Martha McCallum, who was sitting in for Greta. The Tea Party folks were a wide variety, including a young rapper, who was pretty cool.
I am so PSYCHED about this! I am going to be in D.C. on 9/12, and I’ll have plenty of photos and vids to post after that. There will probably be at LEAST a million people there! WOOHOO! Patriotism rides again!
Tonight on Mike Huckabee, actor Jon Voight was on to discuss the over-reaching tentacles of the Obama administration into the healthcare system and other facets of our lives. He calls Obama arrogant (deservedly so), and quotes a piece from conservative scholar Thomas Sowell about the state of current events.
Jon Voight says “no man…has the consent of a God to decide that he’s God.” The audience was near silent on this one, but I don’t think the silence was in protest; I think the silence was the everyday American’s shock at someone who is speaking the truth.
Finally Voight voiced his desire that Huckabee run again for President, saying we need a virtuous man like him. Do I disagre? Not in a million years. America could do worse – and it may TAKE a staunch devout conservative like Huckabee to bring our country back to the way it should be.
God bless Jon Voight. He IS courageous to speak out even though I’m sure he gets backlash in Hollywood for his views. Truth be told, I really don’t think he cares; nor should he. The truth will never steer you wrong, and it’s a position that needs no defense.
