Late Great Paul Harvey

"If you like that video, you really need to check this out. remember, this was 1965." 


Hey folks,

Happy Friday to ya. Don't forget, no Big Sunday Edition this week. I will be in Fort Lauderdale for the return of the Fort Lauderdale Air Show. My favorite radio station "Big Talk" 850, will be the official radio station for the show. I'll be down there with my friend Rich Stevens and the rest of the 850 crew. It's going to be a great weekend. If you can't be here, check out the website and you can listen live. Who knows, you may even hear me. {Smile}

That is this weekend, but it's FRIDAY!!! Time to check the Emails.

"If you like that video, you really need to check this out. remember, this was 1965."

Folks, you have to remember the late great Paul Harvey, if you do not know who Paul Harvey is, you are just a kid. But you have to remember that he did this, back in 1965. Now at the time, I'm sure most went "ah, whatever." or whatever people said back then. But listen to it today? Just listen to it, and think about it.

Have a great weekend folks. See you soon...

Powerful Video Says It All

Nothing really needs to be added here.

Hey folks,

I had three people ask me, "Did you see that Video, 'If I Wanted America To Fail?'" No. Was my answer. Then I watched it...

I really have nothing more to add. If you want America to fail? Vote Obama in November. Because he is doing EXACTLY what the Video says. He wants to do more. We really can not allow this to continue. Think about it.

See you tomorrow..

The Trayvon Effect

Or rather, the race baiter's effect. 

Hey folks,

Here is another real life example of what I and many others were and are continuing to warn you about. Even though Zimmerman has been arrested. Even though he is in the system and the trial will start soon, some just will not let it go. They have been fired up and set loose.

When this all first happened, I warned you that this would not be over with an arrest. It's not. Violence is breaking out all over the country. This time, in Alabama. 

WKRG News Channel 5 - Man Beaten By Mob In Critical Condition 

MOBILE, Alabama - Mobile police need your help to catch a mob that beat Matthew Owens so badly that he's in critical condition.

According to police, Owens fussed at some kids playing basketball in the middle of Delmar Drive about 8:30 Saturday night. They say the kids left and a group of adults returned, armed with everything but the kitchen sink.

Police tell News 5 the suspects used chairs, pipes and paint cans to beat Owens.Owens' sister, Ashley Parker, saw the attack. "It was the scariest thing I have ever witnessed." Parker says 20 people, all African American, attacked her brother on the front porch of his home, using "brass buckles, paint cans and anything they could get their hands on."

Police will only say "multiple people" are involved.

What Parker says happened next could make the fallout from the brutal beating even worse. As the attackers walked away, leaving Owen bleeding on the ground, Parker says one of them said "Now thats justice for Trayvon." Trayvon Martin is the unarmed teenager police say was shot and killed February 26 by neighborhood watch captain George Zimmerman in Samford, Florida.

Police canvassed the area, but did not find any suspects. They're asking anyone with information to call them at 251-208-7211, Crime Stoppers at 251-208-7000, or text a tip to 274637 and include the keyword CRIME 411.

Check out the video....

Folks, this is why someone needs to look into the possibility of filing charges against people like Al and Jesse for inciting violence. That is what they did here. This is what they do for a living. They pick a case, figure out how to make some money, get some air time, and go to work. The sad thing is, many actually believe that they truly care. All they care about is Al and Jesse. Plain and simple.

We need to all come together as one, and call for an end of violence. If not, violence will escalate. We will have groups of Whites, tired of the double standard, and all these attacks on White People just because they are White, will start attacking Blacks, just because they are Black. Hence the cycle goes. 

We need more people like Mike Carroll, Rich Stevens, and me and you, to stand up and say enough is enough. There is no reason for any of this. Those guilty in engaging in this need to be brought to Justice. Every single incident like these, need to be called out. We need to stop the Hate, and embrace the love. If someone is telling you, no matter who they are, that violence must be met with violence, know this. They are too ignorance to lead anyone. Most likely? They are out for self gain. They need to be discredited and denounced. We will never have true equality in this Country, until we ALL stand up and say enough. MLK was right. Judge a person by the content of their character, and not the color of there skin. Treat every situation equally. This group that attacked this guy on his front porch need to be charged with attempted murder and Hate Crimes. And it is, just that simple.

Fears Are Unfounded

What if?

Hey folks,

The big news out there? There is a Spanish oil company that has begun exploration 77 miles off Key West. Most of the reports on this is THIS report re-posted. Doom and gloom. Fear and trepidation is being reported in the Keys and all over the place. People are said to be running for cover.

I do not believe this is true. I believe that some reporters have found a handful of people to further their agendas. I believe most people understand reality. Although the BP Oil Spill was bad, it was the only one of it's kind in over sixty years of drilling. I believe that most people are learning the truth. That there is more natural seepage from the ocean floor, daily, than any man-made "disaster." Ever. I think most people also understand, that just because Obama and crew have stopped us from drilling, other countries have not only, not stopped, but have increased exploration and drilling.

I also think that most people are finally starting to get it. We do not have to be in this economic situation we are in. History gives us the facts. When Obama put the moratorium in place, it costed us hundreds of thousands of jobs. Decreased our national security. Decreased revenue to the government. The price of gas? Yup. It went up.

This does not effect Obama. This does not effect Congress. This does not effect people like Soros and people like Buffet, and people like Rush Limbaugh. It effects minorities, the poor, and people on fixed incomes. When GW left office, gas was around $1.85 a gallon. Look where we are now?

So history shows us that if we do the opposite of what we have done, the opposite will happen. We will INCREASE Jobs, in the hundreds of thousands, increase our national security by no longer relying on foreign governments to meet our very basic need, energy. It will INCREASE and generate new revenue to all forms of government. Local, State, and Federal. It will DECREASE gas prices, and all prices, for everyone.

OR? we can continue to throw hundreds of billions at "green energy." What have we go for that? Solyndra, Abound Solar, Energy Conversion Devices, BrightSource, LSP Energy, Evergreen Solar, Ener1, SunPower, Beacon Power, ECOtality, A123, Uni-Solar, Azure Dynamics, and now Solar Trust? All these companies were propped up by YOUR tax money. ALL of them gone.  Solar Trust alone?  $2.1 BILLION. 


What have they created? Nothing. The CEO's lined their pockets. Some laundered money back to Obama and the democrat party, and they packed up and went home. I think it was Solar Trust that had 5 employees. 5. 2.1 BILLION. One year. Gone.  


However, for the greed of the free money, the brainwashed sheeple, and the Media in an attempt to protect Obama and crew, we get stories like this...

In Cuba’s North Basin, the Spanish company Repsol has begun risky exploration for oil and natural gas on a semi-submersible rig, now just 77 nautical miles from Key West and even closer to the ecologically sensitive Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary. In a month or so, Repsol expects its drilling through 5,600 feet of seawater and about 14,000 feet of layered rock will reach the reservoir.

That’s frightening for many who live and work along the island chain.

Yes folks, people are scared. They remember the horrors of the BP oil spill. Yes folks. They saw people cancel vacations. Called off Weddings. Changed their plans. UH, how is tourism today? How is fishing today? Yes, the news media DID scare some people from coming here. Most of the stories printed and aired during that time were proven false. Nothing really happened. But here we go again folks. The media reporting what if. Listen to this...

Despite the reality: No oil from the 4.9-million-barrel spill reached the Keys. For just the scare, British Petroleum has paid out more than $200 million in claims filed by businesses and residents of South Florida, the bulk of them in Monroe County.

“I had actual visions of oil covering Florida Bay and the mangroves and all the fish being completely devastated,” said Richard Stancyzk, longtime owner of Bud N’ Mary’s Marina, where 45 fishing captains dock their boats in Islamorada. “We were hurt financially, but I’d really like to sue BP for pain and suffering. It actually made me sick and nauseous.” 

He should sue the media for pain and suffering. They are the ones that got him all worked up. Then oil companies got extorted out of hundreds of billions for NOTHING. It goes on and on. But you get the point. What if. What if a another BP takes place. What if a Plane crashed into your house. What if an earthquake hit New York. What if? Yup. Would be bad. But is it actually likely to happen? Even if it did, would it be as bad as they tell us? Wasn't last time.

Do not get all caught up in the hype. Gas is hovering around $4.00 a gallon. People are hurting and learning that they do not have to. This is making people angry. So look for more scare stories like this one. Look for Obama to make more energy speeches. Look for more "green" companies to bit the dust.Watch nothing change. Until November that is. Then watch thing start going tin the right direction. Provided of course, Obama get's what he deserves. Evicted from the White House.

Martin Case, Al, Jesse, Violence

What happens if Zimmerman walks?

Hey folks, 

Any doubt to what myself, and many others have been warning you about? According to Fox Chicago News - Suspect: I Beat Up White Man Because I Am Mad About Trayvon Martin Case Updated: Friday, 20 Apr 2012, 4:31 PM CDT Published : Friday, 20 Apr 2012, 3:40 PM CDT

Sun-Times Media Wire

Maywood, Ill. - Alton L. Hayes III, a west suburban man charged with a hate crime, told police he was so upset about the Trayvon Martin case in Florida that he beat up a white man early Tuesday.

Hayes and a 15-year-old Chicago boy walked up behind the 19-year-old man victim and pinned his arms to his side, police said. Hayes, 18, then picked up a large tree branch, pointed it at the man and said, “Empty your pockets, white boy.”

The two allegedly rifled through the victim’s pockets, then threw him to the ground and punched him “numerous times” in the head and back before running away, police said. Hayes and the boy are black; the victim is white.

After being arrested, Hayes told police he was upset by the Trayvon Martin case and beat the man up because he was white, Cook County State’s Attorney’s office spokeswoman Tandra Simonton said, citing court records.

If you remember correctly, I posted about this increase in violence after the Martin case was made public and after Al and Jesse got involved. I talked about the cases that were making the news and gave my honest opinion HERE. This may be the first case where Martin's name was reported to have been used. 

Hayes, 18 of the 1200 block of North Woodbine Avenue in Oak Park, was charged with attempted robbery, aggravated battery and a hate crime, all felonies, Oak Park police Detective Cmdr. Ladon Reynolds said.

Hayes was ordered held on $80,000 bond and remained in the Cook County Jail on Friday. He will next appear in court May 11. The boy was referred to juvenile court.

So at least the cops in Chicago charged Hayes with a Hate Crime. What do you bet that will be dropped? Yeah, me too. But this is exactly what I and many others, are warning you about. Even though Zimmerman has now been arrested and charged, we are having violence in the name of Martin, all across this country. What do you think will happen if this guy walks? That's the whole point.

Whenever Al and Jesse get involved in one of these cases, they do NOT bring anyone together. They do what they do. Stir the pot. Incite anger and violence. No matter what happens after the trial, or acquittal, they will go home. Or they will sit in there lavish Hotel Rooms and make a comment here and there. But the damage will be done. They are NOT here for Justice. They are here for themselves. And it really is, just that simple.

Be right back with a Pink Slime update and conversation.

Scott Upset With Pink Slime Article

So am I wrong here? Or is this the free market at work?


Hey folks, 


I just re-posted a post I originally posted on the old Blog on March 28th. It was the last of the Pink Slime updates. At least so far. Scott, left a message on the original post that begs a response from me. So instead of posting a response in a jumbled one paragraph mess, and because I really hope he is not a hit and run poster, I figured why not bring the conversation here. So I just posted the original post, complete with the link to the original comment, and now will respond to Scott in a proper fashion.


Scott has left a new comment on your post "Pink Slime Update, Plants Close, Company Blames YO...": 

Honestly, your view on this is pretty sad. My mindset on the pink slime case comes pretty close to the BPI company line. Beef is beef, meat is meat, and pink slime is both. But that's not the point up for debate.

The ABC reports--hell, all reporting on this, including yours--have stilted the issue to make it sound like BPI was intending to scam us. Like ANY company, they needed to be profitable, and using these scraps meant more profit. It also meant cheaper meat, more jobs, etc.

Here is my problem with this Scott. It's NOT beef is beef. It's NOT meat is meat. It IS scraps, tendons, and garbage, that by all rights should be thrown out. Or, as we learned, has been used for years in the making of dog food. As a matter of fact, it is the same process that they use to make dog food, to make the Pink Slime for beef extensions.

I also have no problem with the company attempting to increase profitability. But if they believe in the product so much, then why not simply tell us. Why not label the product? Educate the public in the benefits of the product. "Healthier than pure beef" ETC? Why label it 90 percent lean beef? Now we know why. It's not beef. It's Pink Slime processed garbage. Why do you think that the public was so outraged when they actually learned this?

The ABC report calls the former USDA officials whistle blowers, but I don't think that term applies when what BPI was doing was completely legal, completely within the constraints of the USDA and FDA and, finally, completely safe.

Which only really means that they can get away with it. Doesn't mean it is true or right. You know as well as I do, just how little the USDA and the FDA ACTUALLY inspect. We are learning even more about that with all the salmonella outbreaks. Nothing to do with Pink Slime. Please do not mis-interpret what I'm saying.

There is no adverse health effect to pink slime--it is SAFER than regular ground beef. The food tastes no different or it wouldn't have taken an news report to tell us about it. And if you think pink slime is disgusting, consider reading the ingredients of many of the foods americans love. Anything containing "mechanically separated meat" is the same thing as pink slime. Hot dogs, bologna, etc, all use this mechanically separated meat.

Oh I know. Chicken Nuggets as well. That was also big news for a time.I do understand what you are saying though. Most people do NOT take the time to check out the facts about what they are eating. They assume the label "90 percent lean beef" or "Organic" or "Free Range" is better, and they are willing to pay more. Again, it doesn't mean it's the truth. I'm with ya on this one. It truly is amazing how processed our food really is. More on this in a second.

So ABC presents the public with a news report that could have done NOTHING but cause an uproar. Their report was the beginning of a targeted campaign to cause a public uproar and slander a company. The american public, apparently unaware of how processed their food is in general, bites and goes into an uproar.

So do you actually believe that ABC, and the others that followed up on ABC's report, did so with the sole intent of attacking and the slander of BPI? That there is no other reason why they did this? Why? What does ABC have against BPI? What would be their motive or reasoning. What did BPI do to ABC? I never heard of them until this whole Pink Slime thing. I couldn't care less if they exist or not. They are just like any company out there. They make a product, if the product sells, they make profit and hire people, if not, they go away. 

So yes, it is OUR fault that those factories are going out of business. Instead of doing research, reading unbiased sources and thinking for ourselves, we let Diane Sawyer and ABC tell us what we don't like. Now hundreds of people are out of a job.

Seriously, if pink slime bothers you, read into how the ingredients in 90% of the food in our supermarkets end up at your table. You won't be able to eat again.

OK. I have a company that sells something. I make say a million units. I put it out there. People buy it. I make more. People buy the more, I grow, hire more people, make more units. If it doesn't sell, I go out of business. Problem is, if I lie to the public, and tell them my product is something it's not, and people find out about it, then people have a right to get mad, and stop buying it.Say I have a Tobacco Company. I lie to the public for years that my product is safe. Someone tells the truth and over night, people quit smoking and stop buying my product. Is it the public, or the one that said it's not safe, to blame? Or is it my fault for lying about my product?

P.S. I will laugh so hard if you moderate this. 

Not only did I not moderate this, I made it a main article and a big part of the Sunday Edition. So what say you? Do you really want to have a conversation about this? Here you go. If YOU folks want to have an opportunity to insert your two cents, feel free to comment here, or as always, the Email is opntalk@gmail.com. Am I wrong here? Or is this simply the free market at work?

Pink Slime Update, Plants Close, Company Blames YOU

Pink Slime Update, Plants Close, Company Blames YOU

Really need a theme song for this Segment.

Hey folks,

Time for what is growing into a regular Segment here at the OPNTalk Blog. Pink Slime Update. I knew when I first started looking into this it would be big. I had no idea HOW big it would become. I originally thought it was McDonald's only, well, Fast Food in General all do about the same things, so others would not surprise me. But then we learned it's in our Schools and in our Stores. There is a chance you may have it in your FRIG. You may have bought what you were lead to believe is "healthier" ground Beef, only to learn that "lean, finely textured beef," is nothing more than a code word for Pink Slime. The same process they use to make Dog Food.

So you spoke up. Some of you YELLED. Last Sunday I reported to you that Stores All Over Country Pulling Pink Slime. They have stopped selling it all together. Except Wal-Mart and Sam's Club. This is why I will shop elsewhere.

So what happens when you have a Company, that has LIED to people over the years, HID what they are actually doing, and people find out? What do you do if you have a Company that makes a Product that no one buys? Yup. You go bye, bye.

So "Beef Products Inc.," the maker of Pink Slime, and Regina Roth, the VP of the Company, are closing Planets, laying off workers, and blaming YOU! {Laughing} I kid you not. Remember Ms. Riley? She was the one back on Sunday, March 18, 2012 OPNTalk -
Pink Slime WAS Dog Food who, when asked why not Label Packages to let people know they were eating Pink Slime, said...

"What are you asking me to put on the label, its beef, it's on the label, it's a beef product, it's says beef so we are declaring … it's beef,"

Well, Ms Roth just repeated the line. She said..

"What should we label it? It's 100 percent beef What do you want us to label it? I'm not prepared to say it's not beef because it's 100 percent beef."

NO it's not Ms Roth. It's GARBAGE. It's filler to extend Profit. It is NOT Beef. But we know this now, so I doubt you need worry about it. No one is buying it anyway.

So according to ABC News - 'It's 100 Percent Beef': Company on Defensive as It Closes Plants By Jim Avila ABC News – 5 hrs ago

After two weeks of no comments, Beef Products Inc., the maker of "lean, finely textured beef," a product now known by the critics' term for it, "pink slime," came out swinging today during a news conference to announce the temporary closing of several facilities.

The company said that it was suspending all operations at three of its four plants in Texas, Kansas and Iowa. Its headquarters in Sioux City, S.D., would remain.

It said today that it would continue to pay its workers for 60 days as it launches a public relations program designed to restore confidence in its product.

"After that 60-day period is over, if we haven't been able to resume operations again by then, we believe we won't have a decision other than to formally terminate those employees' employment," said Rich Jochum, the company's corporate administrator.

{Laughing} So we are going to LIE to you some more over the next 60 days and hope you buy our Product. If you don't YOU are responsible for all these people losing their Jobs. YOU are responsible for this.

The company blamed social media and news organizations, specifically ABC News, for what it called a gross misrepresentation of its product and process.

"What should we label it? It's 100 percent beef," asked Regina Roth, the company's executive vice president. "What do you want us to label it? I'm not prepared to say it's not beef because it's 100 percent beef."

She said that the company would "attack" the misconceptions in consumers' minds through social media.

"What we're going through is not something any other companies want to … have to endure," Roth said.

Good lick with this. The Stores are not going to buy it. We are not going to buy it. YOU lied to people for years, "90 percent Lean?" uh, Pink Slime. Healthier, less fat, MORE EXPENSIVE for less REAL Meat. No Ms Roth, YOU are to blame. And as much as you say it's One hundred percent beef, others disagree.

Two former scientists with the U.S. Department of Agriculture who reviewed the product advised against using it in ground beef and told ABC News that it was not the same as ground beef.

"It's not fresh ground beef. It's a cheap substitute being added in," microbiologist Gerald Zirnstein said.

The scientists added that the filler was not as nutritious as ground beef, though the company disputed that. An industry website noted that a side-by-side comparison of nutrition labels showed "90 percent lean beef trimmings and 90 percent lean ground beef have substantially identical nutritional value. And all USDA certified ground beef [with or without lean finely textured beef] found in your grocery store is considered to be a good or excellent source of 10 essential nutrients including protein, iron, zinc and B-vitamins."

An Industry Website said. They say so, so, just except it.

The low-grade trimmings used to produce lean, finely textured beef come from the parts of the cow most susceptible to contamination, often close to the hide, which is highly exposed to fecal matter. But because of the treatment of the trimmings - after they have been simmered in low heat, separating fat and tissue using a centrifuge, they are sprayed with ammonia gas to kill germs - the USDA says it's safe to eat.

It goes on to talk about the Stores and the Schools. So there you have it. It's your fault folks. But they will give you just 60 days to change your mind. Or YOU will be responsible for all these fine people losing their Jobs. I don't know about you, but I know I'm not eating Dog Food anymore. If you want to buy this garbage, go to Wal-Mart and Sam's. They still sell it. Probably dirt Cheap too.

What ever happened to "Go outside and play?"

Hey folks,

I'm being serious here. I know, I know, it's a different time and people have to be more careful today. I have told this story many times over the years, but it is important to talk about in this situation. I grew up in a small town called Salisbury Mills NY. I do not even think my Grandma had locks on her door.

There was a little Store, simply called "The Store" in the center of town, a Firehouse, Post Office, and two Bars. Other than them, there where people. Oh, and an abandon Paper Mill that we use to play in all the time. But the rest of the Town were Neighbors. Truly. Everyone knew everyone, and everyone knew Dot. My Grandmother. Which, in turn meant, everyone knew who I was.

Me and Billy use to "go outside and play" all the time. It was a true mystery how my Grandmother always knew what we were doing even if we were on the other side of town. Now I understand, but back then? We though she was a witch of something. She always knew.

But we did. We went out and played. From sun up to to dinner in the summer. Then to sun down after dinner in the summer. We did not have computer games, computers period, automated toys, and all the stuff kids have today. We did not have cell phones. If I wanted to talk to my friend Billy, I have to get on my BIKE, not battery or gas powered, but peddle powered BIKE and go to his house. Then he would get on his, and off we went.

We had a great imagination. A stick we found in the woods would be a sword, gun, magic wand, whatever. We played Sports with other kids in the neighborhood. None of this silly touch only or not even touch Sports. No, every time we got together one of us, boys OR girls, went home injured, got patched up, and back into the middle of it again we went.

My point is this. We moved more, than we ate. None of us were really obese. Billy was a little chubby in the yearly years, but he is now over six feet  tall. The point is, we were ACTIVE. Always active. Always doing something.

Today, our kids would rather stay home and sit on their,,,well,,,you know, playing video games and playing on the computer. Even the Toys do most of the work for them today. So? in the name of convenience, and in less income single parent homes, a necessity, parents are feeding their kids more and more crap. There is something wrong when a single mom can go through a drive through and spend $3.00 for a meal of processed garbage, yet can not spend that same three dollars to buy much of anything else. Hell, a head of lettuce and a gallon of milk would exceed $5.00.  Forget about buying healthy food. That would cost much much more. Then you have the whole, no time to cook, or the inability to cook.

So our kids, eat garbage, and are pretty much sedentary. So we get what we get. Over weight and obese kids. That is why I have promoted the ELMM Diet for years. Eat Less, Move More. But fat kids is not the only issue. We all know that being over weigh is not good for you. With all that extra weigh comes a barrage of health problems. Not only now as kids, but in their later years as well. A new study has look at one such issue. Cancer. Yup. Liver Cancer to be exact.

According to Health Day - Childhood Obesity May Raise Odds of Adult Liver Cancer by -- Robert Preidt

Findings underscore importance of healthy weight in youth, researcher says 


Just one such reason. But it is an interesting article

FRIDAY, April 20 (HealthDay News) -- Adults who were obese as children are at increased risk for liver cancer, a new study suggests.

Researchers looked at the birth weight and body-mass index (a measurement of body fat based on height and weight commonly called BMI) of more than 165,000 men and 160,000 women in Denmark born between 1930 and 1989.

Of those participants, 252 developed hepatocellular carcinoma, the most common form of liver cancer in adulthood.

The study authors calculated that at age 7, the risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma increased by 12 percent for every one-point increase in BMI. By age 13, that risk increased to 25 percent. Therefore, as units of BMI increased into adulthood, so did the risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma. This was consistently similar across both genders and all ages.

Other factors associated with liver cancer include alcoholism, infection by hepatitis B and C, and other liver diseases. But the study results did not change when participants with these factors were removed from the study, which indicates that childhood obesity was the major factor in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma, the researchers said.

The study was slated for presentation Thursday at the International Liver Congress in Barcelona.

"Childhood obesity not only leads to the development of many adverse metabolic conditions -- such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease -- but also fatty liver disease, which may subsequently result in liver cancer," Dr. Frank Lammert, a scientific committee member of the European Association for the Study of the Liver, said in an association news release.

"The importance of maintaining a healthy childhood BMI cannot be underestimated," Lammert said in the release. "These alarming study results point to a potential correlation between childhood obesity and development of liver cancer in adulthood."
Data and conclusions presented at meetings should be considered preliminary until published in a peer-reviewed medical journal.

More information The American Liver Foundation has more about liver cancer.

Like I said, I understand it is a differ time. Many years have past, and society has changed, since those good  old days of my youth. But that is not excuse. If your child is getting heavy. Start thinking about ways you can change course. If they are not yet, then you still need to seek ways to keep them active. Join Sports. Martial Arts. Go for walks WITH them. Bike rides. Whatever. Active parents have active kids. I'm not saying to forbid them their video games and or computer. But limit the time so they are getting the much needed exercise they need. Being over weight is much more worse than just looking bad.

DLA For Sunday 042212

We need more people, from all Races, bold enough to stand up and speak the truth.

Hey folks,
If you have known me for any amount of time, you know that I have been fighting for true equality in this country for nearly 20 years. I do not just talk the talk, I walk the walk. I have attended rallies. I have been thrown out of rallies. {Smile} I have wrote about Race Relations extensively here.

The truth is simple folks. If we are ever going to have true equality in this country, we must treat every situation, and everyone, equality. The good, the bad, and yes, even the ugly. We have talked about why Hate Crimes are just wrong. However, if we are going to apply them, then we need to apply them equally as well. If White's are charged with a Hate Crimes if they attack Blacks? Then Blacks MUST be charged with Hate Crimes if they attack Whites. Gays attack anyone non-Gay. Hispanics attack anyone non-Hispanic. ETC.

Is Treyvon Martin any more dead than if he was shoot by a Black guy? Is a Gay person any more dead than if they we killed by another Gay person? Nope. Crime is crime, no matter who commits it against who. But by putting into place "specialty classes," by granting special privileges to one group over another group, no matter what the circumstance, does nothing more than create animosity and has the potential of creating Hate and further dividing the groups.

Then you have those that have found a way to profit from the division. Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson is two such examples. See them heading to Baltimore? See them calling for Justice for the White tourist that was beaten, stripped, and left naked in the streets, by a bunch of Blacks? Nope. See them going ANYWHERE and calling for Justice for any Blacks that were killed, or mistreated, by other Blacks? Nope.

Yet, whenever there is a case, like the Jenna Six mess? Remember that one. 6 Black kids beat a White kid, and Al and Jesse planned rallies for the ATTACKERS. Whenever there is a case that they can exploit, for both  financial gain and another fifteen minutes in front of a camera, there they are. But this is part of the problem.

Cases like the Duke Lacrosse, the Jenna Six, Tawana Brawley, and other less famous cases, they come to town, divide the Races in the area, incite violence and hatred, then even if they are proven false, such as these, they go home leaving the community far worst off then before they come to town. They go back to their penthouses, and eat their prime rib steaks, sip their adult beverages, and count their money.

When someone who looks like me, calls them out on this, I'm called a Racist. Someone like our Winner of the Display of Logic Award today, who is Black, calls them out on this, he is called an Uncle Tom, or "Backdoor Man." However, we need MORE people from all Races, bold enough to stand up and speak the truth.

Sunday, I posted this Video. It was posted by Mike Carroll. Simply put, Mike is a guy that speaks his mind. He doesn't care about ignorant people calling him names. I got the video from my friend Rich Stevens's Blog. But that is not all my friend Rich Stevens did. He actually had Mike Carroll on his Radio Show on Friday. I also posted the audio of the Show on Sunday.

Well? The response was so overwhelming that Rich decided to take a step back, open his Show to a community forum on Race Relations. Check out the Audio here...Rich Stevens Show Audio Folks, I'm telling you. You HAVE to hear this. Start on Monday, 041612, and go all the way through to Thursday 041912. Thanks right. It was so popular, all the phone lines taken for most of the Show, everyday. The Emails jammed. It took FIVE Shows total to get in as much as they could. They could most likely go another entire week worth of Shows. Mike Carroll was a huge part of this all five days. You really have to check it out. Trust me.

So I'm actually giving the Award to BOTH. Rich Stevens, who was bold enough to open his Show to this, for this long, even with the possibility of HIM being called a Racist. And to Mike Carroll, who even in the face of being called an Uncle Tom and "Backdoor Man," was bold enough to not only post a video, which by the way was viewed 50,000 times at the beginning of the Show, to 798,668 views with 6,306 likes, 187 dislikes.,  but to go on a Radio show and defend his position on the topic. 

Rich did this in an attempt to bring the Races together, in an attempt to open a dialog and end the violence in the community, as a whole. Congratulations to both of you. You are the Winners of the Display of Logic Award, for today, Sunday, April 22nd, 2012. Mike, keep speaking the truth. Rich, keep up doing the good work you do.

IWA For Sunday 042212

How do you convince people to see your point of view? Threaten them.

Hey folks, 

At least this is the way most Liberals do it. Do you remember Brainwashing You To Think Green

Here are the steps that they used to attempt to convince people that we are all going to burn and it's our fault.

There's little research on how to lower people's energy use, but early evidence suggests that many people will change if:

• They think others similar to themselves are jumping on the "green" bandwagon.
• They get frequent positive feedback for effort.
• They feel able to make a difference by taking concrete steps.
• They think their children will be harmed by global warming, or children encourage the family to lead a greener life.

This is to good folks. They are TELLING the rest in the movement. Here are the talking points. Read this again. "You have to convince people that they are not just sheeple. That everyone is doing it, so they should too. Make sure you give them a pat on the back when they do. Make them feel that they are now a good person. That they matter. That they are heroes for doing this. They also have to "believe" that THEY can solve it. Don't be going around telling them that there is no hope. Make sure they know 'we can do it.' If all else fails, tell them their kids are going to DIE. That they will blame them for not doing anything about it. Scare them into submission if need be."

What if the people ask for proof? "Just tell them that all the Scientist agree that it is real, and they are smarter then them, so they need just accept it. Any Scientists that say it's not real are just kooks, or bought off by big oil."

This is the very definition of Scaryence. Scare Science. "Don't forget, if all else fails, the KIDS. Bring up the kids."

Liberals do this all the time. The sad thing is, they do it because it works. For a little bit anyway. People mindlessly accept it. They even turned Global Warming into a religion. Until there is enough thinking people, with facts, that come out and tell them the truth. We have to continue to throw hundreds of billions at Green Energy, or we will all burn. We have to get away from the only energy sources we KNOW work, or else. It is not confined to Global Warming BS, but this is a great example of it.


So what happens when all else fails? When the minions of the chicken little crowd can't convince enough people of their scam? Come right out and threaten them. At least, our Idiot of the Week, thinks this is a good idea.

“We know who the active denialists are – not the people who buy the lies, mind you, but the people who create the lies. Let’s start keeping track of them now, and when the famines come, let’s make them pay. 

Let’s let their houses burn. Let’s swap their safe land for submerged islands. Let’s force them to bear the cost of rising food prices,” writes Zwick, adding, “They broke the climate. Why should the rest of us have to pay for it?”

Yup. Our Idiot actually wants to burn your house down if you deny the scam. If you call out the schemers, and prove them wrong, they want to burn your house down. Card carrying member of the chicken little crowd,  Steve Zwick, wrote this in Forbes Magazine. 


Inciting violence Mr. Udick,,uh,,Zwick? Are you really this stupid, or just brainwashed into buying into this crap that is man-made global warming? It is a SCAM Mr. Zwick. It is a money laundering, power grabbing, freedom stealing, SCAM. It has been proven to be nothing more. Why do you think more and more people are waking up to this fact. I'm seriously asking. Are you, like my neighbor, who is a proud member for the sheeple, too ignorant to even understand how ignorant she is, or are you profiting from the SCAM yourself. Just curious. Ignorance can be educated out of someone. But as they say, you can't fix stupid. 


Congratulations Mr. Zwick, you are without a doubt, the Idiot of the Week. By actually inciting violence and calling for people who disagree with your insanity to be attacked and their homes burnt down, I would be willing to bet, you are just plain stupid. But then again, you ARE a typical Liberal. 


Have a great rest of Weekend folks, see you soon. 
Peter

First Contraceptives, Then This

"Bad bad Christians, they want to adhere to 2000 plus years of traditions and teachings, bad bad bad! Who do they think they are? A majority of people in North America? Silly Christians.  Perverts and sharia is what's happening."


Hey folks, 


Happy Friday to ya. Since it is Friday, time to check the Emails. You too can be part of the OPNTalk2 Blog by sending in articles, comments, complaints, or even if you just want to say "Hi", the Email is as always opntalk@gmail.com.


Today is a perfect example of why so many are fighting against the Obama administration's attack on the Catholic Church. His "dictate" that Catholic, and any religious organizations, have to now offer free contraceptives and Insurance that also allows women to get the Morning After Pill and Abortion is COMPLETELY Unconstitutional. It is COMPLETELY against the First Amendment. Religion can not be dictated to by the government, what it can and can not do. 


Many people will simply dismiss this "dictate" by the President and simply refuse to comply, because they do not have to. No one cares what Obama "dictates." he does not have that authority. We are a free people in a free country. 


But so many uneducated, and ignorant folks out there, want to know what the big deal is. They simply do not get it. What's the big deal? The big deal is once you allow this, what is the government going to "dictate" religious organizations do next? Here is a perfect example...

Glen Murray, the Minister of Training, Colleges and Universities in the Ontario, Canada government has told Catholic schools that they are no longer allowed to teach biblical principles against homosexuality.  Additionally, he told them that they must allow gay clubs to organize at all Catholic schools.

Speaking publicly on the his anti-bullying bill, Murray said,

“I have to say to the bishops: ‘You’re not allowed to do that anymore.’  I’m not allowed to say to the Catholics—nor should I—or to other Christians or Muslims or Jews, that because of your faith you’re intrinsically disordered.”

“I would never say to you that anything that goes on in your family with the person you love—can you imagine me describing a husband-and-wife relationship as inherently depraved?”

“… There’s no one here that’s suggesting that we shouldn’t teach a Catholic perspective in our schools.”

“It is about celebrating diversity. It isn’t about taking Catholic teaching out of Catholic schools.  It’s about putting life-affirming, positive images and stories around gay and lesbian children, Muslim children, kids and women of all shapes.” 

So this guy, who of course is gay, wants the Catholic Church to stop teaching Biblical principles. Just stop teaching the Bible. He wants them to allow and to teach "life-affirming, positive images and stories around gay and lesbian children, Muslim children, kids and women of all shapes.” Really? He sees nothing wrong with this? I got news for him. There are NO Muslim children in the Catholic Church. If you do not believe what the Catholic Church teaches, do not go there. He simply wants to force his lifestyle on everyone. It really is that simple.

Would it surprise you to learn that Glen Murray is a homosexual and has long fought for gay rights in Ontario and all of Canada.  He is using his position as a cabinet minister to push his personal homosexual philosophy onto the people of Quebec.  Murray has no respect for anyone else’s religious beliefs if they are different from his and now he is trying to force all Catholic schools to act in direct violation of their religious views.

The crux of Murray’s Accepting Schools Act or SB 13 is more about promoting homosexual rights rather than the anti-bullying measures he claims.  The bill is also supposed to stop any anti-hate language which Murray defines as any speech that condemns his perverse gay lifestyle.  Incorporated into the anti-measure of Bill 13 is a provision that requires, yes, REQUIRES all publicly funded schools including Catholic schools to form clubs for gays and straights in the hope that it would help make homosexuality better accepted among straight students.

Suresh Dominic of Campaign Life Catholics reacted to Murray’s announcement by saying that his actions amount to a declaration of war against the Catholic Church and all they believe in.  He also added,

"We’ve been saying all along that McGuinty wants to dictate what the Church can teach in its schools and here it is straight from the government’s mouth.”

Dominic and other Catholic leaders in Ontario are mounting a defensive move and calling for all Catholics and Protestants to fight against Murray and his gay rights bill.  Their calls have been heard as over 2,000 people gathered at Queen’s Park last Thursday in a unified effort to defeat passage of Bill 13.

Even though this is all taking place on the other side of our northern border, similar actions are not out of the question from our own national government, especially when you consider the contraception mandate which is still being fought against by Christian schools and organizations across the nation.

Yup. Once you allow the government to open the door and start dictating to you what you can and can't do, they will not stop. This is why it is so important for those that believe in the Constitution, to continue to fight this administration every time they attempt to overstep their authority.

Look, it really is simple. If you do not agree with what a religious organization is teaching, do not go there. Just like anything else. I do not like, nor agree with, the New Black Panthers. I'm not going to join the group and then tell them that they have to change because I'm there. I'm not going to join the Muslim Brotherhood and tell them that they can no longer pray to Allah, because that offends me. I'm not going to join a Liberal Group and demand that they actually educate themselves. I am simply not going to join.

If Murray, or Obama, or me, or anyone, do not agree with the teachings of the Catholic Church, then we simply need to stay out of it. But we do not have the right to tell them they can not be who they are, because we do not agree. That is insane. It is also against US Law.

Those Ignorant of History, Doomed to Repeat It

I've been making the comparison for years.

Hey folks

As you know, I am nothing short of an expert when it comes to Iran and Ahmadinejad. I have watched his rise to power. I have talked about the days as a terrorist involved in the hostage crises, that Reagan ended, all the way up to President of Iran. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is equal to Hitler in many ways.

Just like the original, Little Hitler is rising. Just like the original, he has major support from world leaders and even some in this country. Just like the original, he wants world domination. He wants everyone to believe as he, summit to Islamic rule, which of course will be controlled by him. If not, he wants you dead. Period. I have been telling you that he wants control over Iraq. I have been telling you, sanctions will not work. Talks, will not work. He IS killing our men and women in Iraq, Afghanistan, and helping terrorist attacks all around the world, by supplying weapons and funds. Bahrain, Egypt, Libya, Palestine and Tunisia, all of which have been involved in the Arab Spring. Which IS the Muslim Brotherhood. Which ARE Islamofascists. Which ARE at war with us. WHO Obama helped put into place in some of these Countries. They are DIRECTLY linked to Iran and "Little Hitler" himself.

I have posted his own words. He tells us he will wipe Israel off the map. He tells us, he will destroy us. His puppet, the "Supreme Leader"  Ayatollah Khamenei just said....

“In light of the realization of the divine promise by almighty God, the Zionists and the Great Satan (America) will soon be defeated,” 

We know that Obama is no friend of Israel. His own actions and words have proven that over and over again. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu knows this. He knows he can no longer rely on America to have Israel's back. Not as long as this Administration is in power. He just said this..

“The Jewish state will not allow those who seek our destruction, the means to achieve that goal. A nuclear armed Iran must be stopped.

I promise you that as Prime Minister, I will never gamble with the security of the state of Israel."

We’ve waited for diplomacy to work, we’ve waited for sanctions to work, none of us can afford to wait much longer.

As Prime Minister of Israel, I will never let my people live in the shadow of annihilation.” 

As well he should not. He has, not only the RIGHT to defend his people, but a DUTY to defend his people. Just like the one Obama has with us. So he talked about how Iran Nuking up, and Iran's stated goal, being equal to Hitler and the rise of his power, and how nothing was done to stop him until 6 million Jews and countless others where killed. He said we are watching this all over again and he is not willing to wait until..

So some took "offense" to this comparison. Actually, I think it was three guys. But that's how Liberals work all over the world. "I'm offended, so many must be, and you will change your ways, or apologize, because I was offended." Even if no proof at all that anyone else even cares. Their names are Tzipi Livni, and Dan Halutz, and Gideon Levy. One is a political opponent of Netanyahu. The other is a former military chief. The third? a big Liberal commentator. They say that it is inappropriate for the government to use such rhetoric. One said that Netanyahu will scare the entire nation with all this Holocaust talk. What's his name, Levy said that he feels that it had "belittled and cheapened" memories of the Holocaust.

No it doesn't. He is attempting to avoid another one. What he is saying is we did not have to have a Holocaust. He is saying that although people clearly saw Hitler, his intentions, his rise to power, and his march toward world domination, no one did anything about it until it was too late. This "Little Hitler," this new incarnate, is following the same path. Only this one wants to make the Holocaust look like a day in the park. He does't just want to kill six million Jews. He wants to wipe Israel off the map with nuclear weapons. If, like the original, no one stops him, he WILL.

"I know there are people who believe that it is forbidden to mention the unique evil of the Holocaust while talking about the current threats facing the Jewish people. They claim that doing so cheapens the Holocaust and insults its victims. I completely reject this approach.

"I will continue saying the truth to the world but first of all to my own people, who I know are strong enough to hear the truth. And the truth is that it is necessary to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. It is the duty of the world, but above all, it is our duty."

He is right folks. It is the truth. It is happening right in front of our faces. We are watching history repeat right before our eyes. We know from history what happens if no one does anything about it. The question is not what happens if we act, rather, what if we do not? History already tells us this answer.

This is one of many on the list, it's on the top, but one of many reasons that this election is so very important. This is why we need a Leader that is actually intelligent, connected to reality, and more importantly, bold enough to do whatever they need to do, to prevent another Holocaust from taking place. A worse one at that. We need a Leader that can restore our allies faith in us. We need a Leader that is bold enough to make the tough choices here for us. Obama, is not he. The media can talk about Dogs all they want. The Pundits can talk about Obama eating Dogs all they want. They can talk about Obama signing into law that legal process of slaughtering horses to eat all they want. As for me? I want to talk about the debt, housing, unemployment, energy costs, and the possibility of another world war. Which do you think is more important?

Some In The UK Say No Way

Obama did it here. Some in the UK say no way.

Hey folks,

We have been talking about this for years. One such example is this. OPNTalk - Government To Take Control Of the Internet? I told you this is one of the ways a government starts down the road to socialism. On Sunday, January 18, 2009, I posted this: OPNTalk - Supreme Leader Obama 


Now I just re-posted two of the original posts that deal directly with what is happening right here in front of all of us to see. Now it seems that there are some in the UK that are starting to see a threat as well. Seems that the UK is talking about monitoring the Internet. According to The UK Guardian - Tim Berners-Lee urges government to stop the snooping bill by Ian Katz guardian.co.uk, Tuesday 17 April 2012 16.34 EDT
Exclusive: Extension of surveillance powers 'a destruction of human rights'

The government's controversial plans to allow intelligence agencies to monitor the internet use and digital communications of every person in the UK suffered a fresh blow on Tuesday when the inventor of the world wide web warned that the measures were dangerous and should be dropped.

Sir Tim Berners-Lee, who serves as an adviser to the government on how to make public data more accessible, says the extension of the state's surveillance powers would be a "destruction of human rights" and would make a huge amount of highly intimate information vulnerable to theft or release by corrupt officials. In an interview with the Guardian, Berners-Lee said: "The amount of control you have over somebody if you can monitor internet activity is amazing.

"You get to know every detail, you get to know, in a way, more intimate details about their life than any person that they talk to because often people will confide in the internet as they find their way through medical websites … or as an adolescent finds their way through a website about homosexuality, wondering what they are and whether they should talk to people about it."

Obama already did this here. We have Obamanet. Our Government CAN monitor the Net and even have the power to shut down any site it deems a threat to national security. Yup. Anything Obama and crew decide is a threat, they can shut down. It really is a great Article.

So we just sit back and allow the Government to takeover the Internet. Think about what Sir Tim Berners-Lee said here. The Government can, and are now as we speak, monitor every person that goes Online. They can see where you go Online. What you search for. You really think Google just decided to store all your traffic info for themselves?

Folks, take a few minutes to check out the two re-posts I just posted here. Socialism can and IS happening here as we speak. It reminds me of a conversation,,,,make that a conversation I was TRYING to have with two friends on Friday. I could not get a word in. All they did was laugh at anything they THOUGHT I was about to say, and blame Bush for EVERYTHING. Yup. EVERYTHING. One of my friends actually said Obama is great for this country and will win in a landslide. Housing? Unemployment? Debt? Energy? They both just kept laughing and saying how everything is Bush's fault. I finally had enough and told them, hey, you don't want to be educated with the truth and facts, there is nothing I can do to help you. Then I got in my car and drove away, leaving the two laughing Idiots in the parking lot.

That is the sad thing here folks. These two are not alone. There are a lot of them out there. So completely blind to what is happening right in front of their faces. Completely ignorant to Reality. COMPLETELY! The scariest part? These people vote. This is why we need to continue to educate as many people as we can. Why? As the old saying goes, those that are ignorant of History are doomed to repeat it. Those that do not learn by watching all the failures anytime Socialism is tried anyway in the World, are doom to think it might actually work here.

Hey folks,

I have been talking about the true intentions of the LWL {Left Wing Loonies} and the NEW Democrat Party. I have posted their own words, chronicled their own actions. I have pointed out what the true definitions of what could very well happen, if what they are doing and saying, were to actually come to pass.

Back on Sunday October 14, I gave you a trip down memory lane. Kind of a round up of all the things I’ve been warning you about. Even then, I could not add EVERYTHING. I told you how they want to indoctrinate our kids into their way of thinking. “He who controls the youth, controls the future.”But STILL, with all this, some of you out there are still saying, “It can’t happen here. This is America. We will not allow it.”

Do you know what it is that causes a Dictator or a Socialist Society to rise? YOU. The people. Hitler could not rise by himself, unless he had people HELPING him to. Iosif Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili {Joseph Stalin} same thing. The Soviet Union would have never been, had not some people WANTED it to be. ONE man, one idea, can do little. They need support. Little Hitler {Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadenijad} is rising right now because there are many helping him. Including some in this very country. Hugo Chavez? GET THIS according to CNN- Critics say changes in Venezuela law could erode rights

The pro-Chavez legislature already has approved 33 other changes to the constitution. They are to be considered in a referendum slated for December 2.

“We will do what we have to do to approve the constitutional reforms that the president proposes because that is what the people want,” said Iris Varela, a pro-Chavez member of parliament.

But Jose Miguel Vivanco, Americas director at the New York-based Human Rights Watch, expressed fear the changes could do more harm than good.

“This amendment, if approved, would allow President Chavez to invoke a state of emergency to justify suspending certain rights that are untouchable under international law,” Vivanco said.

"These include the presumption of innocence and rights to a fair trial, to an attorney, against self-incrimination, for a defendant to know the charges and evidence against him, and against double jeopardy," he said.

"The proposed amendments would eliminate limitations on how long a state of emergency could last and the requirement that a constitutional tribunal review the suspension of rights during times of emergency," Vivanco said.

They also would get rid of language requiring that any such decree “meet the requirements, principles and guarantees established in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the American Convention on Human Rights,” he said.
Sound familiar?

So scanning the news I caught this from the AP- Poll: Some Germans see good in Nazi rule By DAVID RISING, Associated Press Writer Wed Oct 17, 1:25 PM ET on Wednesday.

A quarter of Germans believe there were some positive aspects to Nazi rule, according to a poll published Wednesday — a finding that comes after a popular talk show host was fired for praising Nazi Germany's attitude toward motherhood.

Pollsters for the Forsa agency, commissioned by the weekly magazine Stern, asked whether National Socialism also had some “good sides (such as) the construction of the highway system, the elimination of unemployment, the low criminality rate (and) the encouragement of the family.”

Forsa said 25 percent responded “yes” — but 70 percent said “no.”
Stern commissioned the survey, conducted Oct. 11-12, after Germany's NDR public broadcaster last month fired talk show host Eva Herman over comments she made about the Third Reich.

News reports quoted Herman as saying there was “much that was very bad — for example, Adolf Hitler,” but there were good things under the Nazis, “for example, the high regard for the mother.”

Herman, 48, who has written books urging a return to more traditional gender roles, has stood by her comments.

“What I wanted to express was that values which also existed before the Third Reich, such as family, children and motherhood, which were supported in the Third Reich, were subsequently done away with by the 68ers,” she later said, referring to 1960s-era leftists.

Praising the 1933-45 Nazi dictatorship is taboo in Germany. The Nazis were responsible for the murder of some 6 million Jews and for starting World War II — a conflict in which at least 60 million people died, including more than 7 million Germans.

The poll, which had a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points, showed that people 60 or older had the highest regard for aspects of the era, with 37 percent answering “yes.”

Those who grew up directly after the war, now aged 45 to 59, were the least enthusiastic about the Nazi era, with only 15 percent responding “yes.”

The point is folks, it seems to be in reverse here. The LWL are getting to our youth. They are attempting to indoctrinate them into Liberalism. They are also using the pure and unadulterated hatred for Bush and anything Christian to rev up the Loony base.

They are small, but very well funded, and very loud. They no longer even try to hind their goals. Hillary said this.

"I prefer a 'we're all in it together' society, she said. I believe our government can once again work for all Americans. It can promote the great American tradition of opportunity for all and special privileges for none."

"There is no greater force for economic growth than free markets. But markets work best with rules that promote our values, protect our workers and give all people a chance to succeed, she said. Fairness doesn't just happen. It requires the right government policies."
Campaign for America's Future co-director Roger Hickey just said this.

“Congressional conservatives and the president are the culprits who have stood in the way of a new progressive direction for our nation”

“A new progressive direction for our nation” SOCIALISM He just came out and said it.

If you vote the LWL to stay in power, and you vote someone like Supreme Leader Wannabe Hillary into the White House in 08, you WILL have someone in power who has antepenultimate power. Like what we just read by CNN “We will do what we have to do to approve the constitutional reforms that the president proposes because that is what the people want,” will be heard over and over again in OUR OWN Country. The only way to stop this? DO NOT ALLOW IT. YOU have the power. YOU either support or condone the Socialist quest by the LWL, in turn helping it to rise to power, or YOU do not allow it. YOU are the fuel. The choice is YOURS. Get educated. Get ready. When the time comes, go VOTE.

You do not think this can happen here? There are some here working really hard on MAKING it happen. YOU are the only thing standing in the way.
