The citizens of this country are getting what they voted for in the last election.  House democrats have voted for our country's defeat in Iraq, just as they were instrumental in our humiliation and defeat in Vietnam.  Now, all that our enemy has to do is wait.   They have to do nothing else!  Just wait and next year they will have achieved success. The liberals in this country have handed them victory.  And this is what you who voted them in have also achiOeved.  Rightfully angry with the republicans in office, you decided you were going to teach those guys a lesson.  You were warned by many that this would happen.  And it has.

So now what?  And note...the deadline for defeat is set just before the next national election.  So that no matter what, they achieve their aims.  Let us hope that our president does what is needed and veto's this vile piece of legislation.  But then he defunds our troops.  And this is also the hope of the liberals.  They do not support our troops despite their protestations to the opposite.  Their contempt for our troops is just as real as during the Vietnam war when they spit on and threw various other vile substances on our troops arriving back in this country.

Our returning troops in that conflict received nothing but contempt and denigration.  Soldiers arriving in airports were spit upon, had paint and worse thrown on them.  I myself, had white paint smeared on the back of my uniform after I arrived at the old Stapleton airport in Denver as did many other soldiers.  And the same liberals...at the very least, the same liberal ideals and beliefs are held by those currently in the majority in Washington. 

Are we once again going to go down in defeat?   Defeat brought on by contempt for our country, contempt for our military, and contempt for conservatives.  I am saddened that it may happen.  And I am saddened and dismayed at what might become of our country.  The country that I served and sacrificed to protect.  We are on the verge of loosing everything we hold dear. Wake up America!

Dear Mr. President,

I am entering the twilight of my life.  I grew up in a country that I loved from as early as I can remember.  I was taught to fish, to hunt, to love the outdoors by my maternal grandparents and to love and respect the small town traditions and western culture of our home state of Colorado.  My father taught me to respect our laws and those who were charged with their enforcement.  He also taught me to respect and honor our military and those who served, which included my father himself.  He served our country for 27 long years in the Air Force.  My grandfather had two ships sunk beneath him in WWI while serving in our Navy.  I joined the army right out of high school and served for 11 years.  My greatgrandfather was a scout in the US Cavalry.  His father served during the civil war fighting for the north.   Our family has served in our military since we came to this country as immigrants from Europe.  

Now it seems that the traditions and culture of the America I grew up in and remember are being sacrificed.  Sacrificed on the alter of Multi-culturism for one.  Where every culture but our own American culture, history and traditions,  must be respected and retained, while our history is re-written and our traditions forcebly changed.  Where is the respect for my family's traditions and culture?  I am told, my sons are told in school, to celebrate traditions and holidays that were never a part of the country I grew up in.   Times change, yes, but you do not destroy the traditions of a country unless you mean to destroy the country. 

We are in a war for the very life of our country.  We face an enemy whose stated goal is the destruction of our country.  The destruction of our way of life.   The destruction of our very lives.  Yet because of political correctness we are not even allowed to offically name our enemies.  We are not allowed to recognise and ferret out those enemies that are here now, within our borders.  We search little old ladies waiting to board our planes rather than just those that fit the model of those that would do us harm.  All in the name of multi-culturism and political correctness. 

And last, we have a southern border that is a joke where security is concerned.   You could have protected our country by securing the border.  You didnt!  Instead you tried passing what was laughably called "Comprehensive" Immigration Reform.  Which amounted to nothing more than giving a pass to easy citizenship of millions of illegals who have flouted our laws.  You stated that these illegals were "doing jobs" that legal americans wouldnt do.  That is an exageration of monumental preportions.  The recent immigration raids on meat processors in this state shows that.     Even before reopening, the processors were deluged with job applications from LEGAL Americans wanting work.   Americans will do any work needed, but at fair wages.  Not the very low wages that illegals are willing to take though.

Yet you, Mr President, and those who think like you, are wanting to leave our borders open, to allow many millions of criminals, and that is what these illegal "immigrants" are, to have a fast track to citizenship simply because they are here.  What does that say to those immigrants who came here legally.  Many who waited years for a chance to come here. What does that say to them?  What does that say to those who have yet to arrive?  It says that its better to break our laws then to obey them. 

And how do you plan to protect our country when our borders are wide open?  When those whose duty is to try to protect our border are arrested and imprisoned for doing their job.

I dont have that many years left in my life.  I am glad that I will likely not live to see what my country will become.   But my sons will be here.  And their families.  And I fear for them.  I have taught them the traditions that I grew up with.  Two of my sons will soon be serving in the military.  I would hope that their service is not wasted.  If our country falls, then the lives spent protecting our country have been wasted.   Wasted because of multi-culturism and political correctness and the failure of those in government entrusted with enforcement of our laws and the protection of its citizens.  The failure of those to enforce our laws.  To protect the citizens of our country.  And just today I heard the representative of a socalled "Immigrant Rights Council" spouting about the "rights" of "illegal Immigrants".  What rights?  They are not citizens, they have NO rights in our country.  They broke our laws coming here.  But once again.  Multi-culturism and political correctness trumps common sense and enforcement.

I love my country.  And I will love it to the day I die.  But I am ashamed of what our country is becoming.  Ashamed of what it is today.  And you should be ashamed as well, Mr President.  Because you have, by your inaction, as well as your actions, been a part of what it has and is becoming.  And the Democrats are no better.   Someone up there in Washington had better start thinking about the legal citizens of this country or we are not going to be the America that most of us remember for very long.  

I knew liberals hated conservatives and conservatism, but I was not aware of how deep and hard this hatred was until I begarn looking and liberal posts and messages on blogs throughout the net including verbal messages left on a message line to Hannity of Fox News.  But I was nothing short of astounded at the verbal abuse and vitriol directed towards those of us who are conservatives.  Both verbal and written, much of it consisted of hatred of conservatism laced with 4 letter and worse words.  Review of conservative sites and blogs show little of the same directed towards liberals.  Not that there isnt any, but there is no comparison in numbers and show of hatred.  

As a result, I have come to the conclusion that there is no meeting ground or meeting of minds between conservatives and liberals.  The depth of the liberal hatred is too deep.   It also shows in their inability to govern.  Witness the current liberal majority in both houses and their inability to accomplish anything other than their directed hatred towards conservatives and President Bush and the war and our military.

I do believe, that in 2008, we need to totally return congress to conservatives.  I do not mean just a small majority.  I mean a total takeover as close to 100 percent as possible.   By our votes this can be possible.
Liberals need to be taken out of government.  Their standards of conduct and life are based on nothing more than emotionalism and little, if any, logical thought.   We are in a war for our life and our country.  Liberals would turn our country over to our enemy.   And though I have been a long time supporter of our president, I believe that his conduct regarding secureing our borders, and especially our southern border has been reprehensible.   Our borders need to be locked down tight, and with a physical fence or a wall.  And if that is not possible, enough of our military placed there to do the job until a fence can be built.  With shoot to kill orders against anyone attempting to illegally cross.  

Regardless, our county is in deep trouble right now.  With the liberals in control of congress and with our president moving to the center and with the current state of the war on terror.  We could lose this war and I do not mean the war in Iraq.  I mean the war to keep our country and way of life alive.

I wish! Two simple words that we hear and we say from childhood. As children we would wish for a certain toy or other gift on our birthday or at Christmas. Or sometimes for a better grade when we knew we hadn't done as well as we should in school. As we got older we would wish that a certain girl would look our way or a certain boy would show interest. All wishes appropriate for our age and our time and our maturity.

Now, as an adult, especially one well past my prime, my wishes are for things appropriate form my age and time of course. But they are also wishes of, and for, better times in our country and our world. But wishes are like dreams. They seldom come true, and as we grow into adulthood we learn that real life lesson. But we still wish, and we still dream. And let us all hope that we can all continue to wish for needs and wants other than just being able to live one more day.

My wishes? Why, for nothing more than to live another day. To see our leaders actually lead by them realizing that they were put there to represent their countrymen. Not for special interest groups, not to push an agenda, especially one that might bring harm to their country our their countrymen.

Another wish is that we would see soon an end to the war on terror. That our country would be made safe. That our borders would be secured. That something would be actually done about illegal immigration. That those coming here would realize that they are coming to a country more than willing to take them. With people that would open their hearts and homes to them. But that they come here legally. That they become part and parcel of what is America. They become Americans. That they become part of the American Culture. That they assimilate. That they join what is good with their roots with what is good about this country. I wish!

But as it stands, my wishes, like all wishes, will likely never come true. Not unless there is a profound change in this country. Unless the celebration of multi[culturism, the open borders, our leaders representing only their own interests, or our own people forgetting who we are and were, all ends. Unless we all remember what it is to be an American. Unless we remember what we were and can be again. Unless we start remember our roots and our history. Unless we remember that we stood as one in times past and as we stood in the days following 911. Unless we remember, and find ourselves as Americans again, my wishes, my dreams, will be as dust. And this country will fall!

I wish!

The Crhistmas season has rolled around again.  And the proponents of multi-culturism and and anti-religion zelots are at it again.  At one time in this country we could celebrate our Christmas traditions without being branded insensitive or called religious fundamentalists or any other of a number of anti-conservative and anti-religion slurs.  And Crhistmas is a long standing tradition in this country and the way that we have traditionally celebrated it.  Yes, it has changed somewhat over the years since the founding of our country.  It became comercialised and embraced by the business world since it was the most profitable season for businesses.  But it was still Christmas.  And we were free to celebrate it or not as we pleased.  If you were of a religion that did not celebrate it, that was ok.  You could ignore the celebrations or just join in, all the while retaining your own holiday traditions. 

   But nowadays, we are supposed to embrace multi-culturism and be "sensitive" to the traditions of other cultures and totally seperate our government offices from any hint of religion and celebration of Christmas.   In other words we are supposed to abandon the traditions of our country so as not to insult or upset those in this country of other religions or the athiests who believe in nothing.  We are expected to do thiis even though around 80 percent or more of the people in this country profess to be of one christian religion or another and who celebrate and have celebrated Christmas for generations.  We are now expected to give up our traditions as being of less imprtance and celetrate the traditions and/or beliefs of others so as to be "sensitive" to these other beliefs. 

  So now, even in the business world, the celebration of our traditional christmas is disappearing.  Its now the "Holiday Season" rather than the "Christmas Season".  Any hint of tradtional or religious conotations has to be removed from public display on government property.  The liberals have demanded that even our schools and children cannot celebrate Christmas.  It is the "holidays".  And the celebration of the holiday season in other countries is what is of importance and is what must be studied and celebrated in our schools.  Any and all hints of the traditional American Christmas must be removed.  And most especially any hint of Christian religious celebration of Christmas.  Other religions and their celebrations and traditions is allowed of course. 

  At first it was the removal of the manger scene from public view.  Then the removal of the colored lights and only display of the white lights.  Now christmas trees even are under attack and must be removed or only displayed on private property.  Where is our country?  Why is it that other countries or other cultures traditions must be more important than our own?
Political correctness has gone made in this country.  It is going too far, it has gone too far for a long time now.  And it must end. Our American culture is what is important.  Our American traditions are what is important. Why should I or my children be forced to celebrate the traditions and holidays of other countries.  They are not our tradtions.  It is time to end this multi-culturism and political correctness that is destroying America as we have known it and as it should be.  We are Americans.  You can celebrate our traditions and holidays or not, as you please.  But you have no right to force the rest of us to stop celebrating our traditions and holidays.  You have no right to destory our traditional celebration of Christmas just because you think that we should be "sensitive" to yours. 

  So I am calling for the end to "political correctness" and the celebration of "multiculturism"   This is America and we WILL celebrate our American tradtions and holidays.  You are welcome to join in or not.  But the rest of us, which is the majority of those in this country, will celebrate.  And you will not say whether we can or not.

So to all of you, I say..."" M E R R Y    C H R I S T M A S ""

  I had taken a break from posting on my blog here.  My reasons were varied, but were mainly for 2 main reasons I believe.
1st, I was and am, disgusted with the results of the recent election.  As a result, I was, for a short time anyway, discouraged by the re-emergence of the left to power in this country. 2nd, I was tired.  Tired of worrying about the various topics upon which I have posted thiese past months.  Generally called burnout.  I needed to devote my energies to home, family and everyday life.
So I did.

  And it was worth it.  I have been spending more time with my family, even traveling to visit and enjoy Thanksgiving with my brother and his family.  That, all to short trip, by itself, did much to revitalize me.   What else?
Well, I did more work in my workshop.  Several projects I had begun and not finished, I finished.  A couple of picture frames intended for a friend, I finished and presented to him.   I was quite  proud of my work.  I  might post a link in the near future to some examples of my work.  For frames, they are pretty unique, in my humble opinion.

  So I am rested, revitalized and ready to continue the battle to now, reestablish conservative values in this country.  The continue the fight against liberalisim and the damage that liberals have inflicted on our country.  To fight for laws and the physical means to finally bring to an end, illegal immigration.  To fight multi-culturalism and restore our American traditions.
I am back.

As it stands now, the Democrats have regained control of both the House and the Senate, Donald Rumsfeld is gone and Bush is making friendly googoo eyes at the new congress.   And if you could go by the reaction of our friends, neighbors, not so good friends, and our enemies, good times are here again.

But are they?   Of course, it does seem strange that a change in our government can have our enemies applauding those soon to take charge.  Enemies dedicated to destroying our country and way of life.   And Fox of Mexico is also applauding the change.  Of course, he can now be confident that those 18 million illegals now in the US wont be flooding the roads back to Mexico to make trouble for him and that he can continue to flood the US with his unwanted poor to work here and send badly needed dollars back to Mexico. 
Our so-called friends like France, Germany, and others are also applauding the concience of our country for making this change as well.  Because it will now be business as usual again, with them being able to claim to support us while making business deals and making billions under the table with our enemies.

Why would such a change in our government make everyone else, including our deadly enemies so happy as well.  Because it will be good for our nation?  How can it forbode good for our country when our deadliest enemies are applauding the recent elections?

I now fear fear for our nation more than I have ever before.  I hope, with every ounce of my being, that we survive the next two years intact, without another major attack on our country, and that our troops in this war in Iraq and the larger war on terror continue to be supported and fully funded.  I hope!  And hope that in two years our nation comes to its senses and decides once again to vote in conservatism and conservative principles in our government.

I hope, but fear that we may not get that chance.

The American Public has spoken and given our government back to the liberals.  At least that is the way it is looking at this point.  And so for the next two years we get to be under the control of the likes of Pelosi and the great San Francisco type crowd.  Those who care more about the rights of the terrorists who would kill our people, than our own people.  Who tried to sideline every program that our president has put in place to protect our homeland.  This is what the people of this country want. 

So be it.  If we are that stupid, than we deserve what we get.  

Since those of us who are either ex military or currently serving are dumb bunnies according to John Kerry, I guess he feels we are too dumb to vote for those that respect our men in uniform, both past and present.  And his displayed elitist atttude is typical of the liberal mindset among the democrates. The party that is supposed to be for the "common man" shows not respect but contempt for middle americans and the "common" folks of society.  And his "apology" is nothing more than damage control at this point because it could and should destroy democratic hopes for this election.   Cus uss dum peeple is jst su dum dat weee dunt no beatter.  Tank u Jon Cuurry fur shoeing us jst huuw dum.

So be it!

Lets do it!  Lets get the vote out!  Lets bring Pelosi and crew on board!  They couldn't do any worse than the Republicans they would replace could they?  And if Pelosi gets into the house and becomes Speaker, than she is 3rd in line for the presidency.  And the liberal crowd has already said that they intend to try to bring down the Bush presidency.  And if they get a majority in the House and possibly in the Senate, than they will have open season on our president.  They fully intend to attempt to impeach both Bush and Cheney. And if they succeed, Pelosi is next in line.

So lets hear it for our next President.  President Pelosi!.
And say goodbye to everything that we conservatives have worked towards for the last dozen years.  And say hello to legalized gay marriages, the continued destruction of the family, likely even more abortions, and most of all, more destruction and terrorist hits on our homeland.  And all because conservatives are,even if deservedly, angry at those we put in charge of our government.

  So we are going to "show them" and send them a message.  And at the same time give power back to the liberals.  You know the old saying, "To bite off you nose to spite your face".  Well, thats what we will do.  

Yes, our guys that we put in charge have dropped the ball on a lot of things they NEEDED to do, but they did also get a lot done even so.  

But if you folks are so angry that you want to listen to the main stream media and the liberals that are slavering to get back in power, then stay home on November 7.   Hand over the government to the liberals and you can look forward to President Pelosi.  And God help us!  Whoops...likely won't even be able to do that.   

Do you want your children pledging allegiance to Mexico in your schools?  Well, according to the multiculturists, its a "good" thing.
At a Houston, Texas school assembly last month, according to some parents, they did that very thing.

Now, reading the story, it claims the video obtained by the station did not show the children saying allegiance, but quite clearly in the sound portion you can hear not only someone near the camera saying the words, but also hear children nearby saying the words.
My question is this, did the media even listen to the video, or was the purpose only to attempt to debunk what the parents who were present at the assembly were saying?  I will let you form your own opinion.  Just watch the two video clips available in the news story and listen carefully. 

And some "expert" that was questioned about the incident claimed that it was a "good" thing because it would teach "anglos" about how other cultures pleadge allegiance in their own country in this expanding global community.

The globalists at work.  Learning about other cultures = good.  Learning about and maintaining your own American culture = bad.

And it looks like you folks are going to vote in the democrats again this November?  Do that, and we will continue to see our own culture minimalized and destroyed to even a greater extent.
But I guess you would rather be mad at republicans and let the democrats take over all so you can make a point.  Smart!

Fear for your children, be afraid, very afraid of the potential effects of a liberal takeover of our government.  With Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House, and control of the House and possibly the Senate in the hands of the democrats. I fear for my children and you should fear for yours.  Because with the democrats in charge it will likely be only a matter of time before one or more of our cities is obliterated in a nuclear holocaust.  Or imagine a nuclear bomb going off somewhere in the midwest where the prevailing winds can spread the radioactive fallout eastward and south, right through and over our farms and homes.  It won't matter then if you live in a city or not.  And if you are lucky enough to live through the blast and the resulting fallout, then your children will get to live with the results for their foreseeable lifetimes.

There is no guarantee that a Republican government can prevent such a thing happening, but I do believe that the likelyhood is far less than under a Democrat controlled government.  History of the last 40 years should show the difference.

If we the people, vote in the democrats in November, then we will deserve what happens.

Personally, if the liberals are given control of our country again, I plan on building me a bomb shelter, stocking it to the max, buying the guns I might need and can afford for my families protection and fortifying, as much as possible, my home and property.  And I would advise everyone else to do the same.

I never held much with the survivalists line of thought, but I am scared for my family now.  And for my country.  Because we are in a fight for the very survival of our country and way of life.  Make no mistake.  We are fighting the liberals here at home and we are fighting the terroists abroad.  If you as an American, love your country, love our way of life, then you have to vote this november and vote against the democrats and the liberals.  It is not a matter of voting FOR republicans.  You vote has to be against the liberals, the democrats, because otherwise we stand to lose everything we value.

If you do not,  well, be prepared to be afraid as you never have before.

I was angry with our folks in power after I witnessed the protest marches by the illegals demanding "their rights".  I was angry that our government did nothing.  I was angry that they wanted to pass "comprehensive" immigration reform rather than just secure the border.  It made no sense.  And I continued to be angry.  I wrote to my representatives demanding that they do something.  I threatened using my vote to help vote them out of office.

And yes, I am STILL angry.  Angry and disappointed that they have not done what they should have done.  BUT........!   I am not stupid enough to believe that the democrats would do any better.  I am not stupid enough to believe that the democrats would make our country safer. Because they wouldn't!  If the democats regain power our country would become a mess. 

Do you really want this?  Do you really want the democrats to regain power?  To do nothing about our borders?  To continue to allow illegal immigration?  To give those illegals here amnesty? To immediately withdraw from Iraq?  To allow the terrorists a base and oil to finance their war against us?  To expose us to strikes against us by the terrorists?  The democrats for the most part do not even believe that we are at war.  The liberals believe that the terrorists have rights and we are at fault in this battle. 

Do you really want all of that?  Then stay home in November. Or vote for the democrats.  Either way the democrats regain power.  And if they do then we deserve what will happen to our country.  If we allow it then we deserve what the democrats will do.  Because they will destroy our country as it is.  Within a few years our country will be unrecognisable as the country which we know and love now.  The liberals have no love for our country.  To the liberals we are only part of the world community.  They are multiculterists and only wish to turn us into what Europe has and/or is becoming.  We will no longer have an American culture.  We will be fragmented into many cultures.  That is if we do not become just another part of Mexico because of the anticipated invasion of illegals.

Do you want this? 

Liberal hypocrisy!  Thats the title.  But where to start?  When Bill Clinton did the dirty with the intern and seemingly just about anything female with two legs that got within arms length, democrats, liberals, feminists all screamed his private life should be private.  It mattered not that some incidents were at the Oval Room desk (or under it, as the case may be) and were for sure distractions from his official duties at the time.  To his supporters, it was a private matter.  But let a gay Republican send dirty emails to Congressional pages and they scream for blood. Not to minimize his actions, by any means, what he did was reprehensible, even though, all evidence considered at this time, it was just emails and chat sessions.  These were underage boys and it shouldn't have happened, he should have known better.

  But liberals are hypocrites.  They condemn the right for doing things that they accept, defend, even glorify when done by someone on the left.  When someone on the left is condemned by the right, the usual response is that well, this person or that person on the right did it also.  Which to the left makes it right.  Since others on your side have done it, then why shouldn't WE do it.   They ignore the fact that when someone on the right does what Foley did or as Bill Clinton did, we also condemn them.  We don't defend their immorality or immoral actions.  And that is what makes the left hypocrites.  Those of us on the right accept that we are human and subject to human impulses.  But as adults we also accept that impulses can be controlled. That we can and do make moral decisions on what is right or wrong.  That we as moral creatures can control those base impulses and not act on them.  That we can do  what is ethical and right according to our code of ethics, our code of morals.  That our code of morals, our ethics, are what we are as people.  If we are immoral in our private life, than we are inevitably immoral in our public life.   There is no separation of the two as far as morality is concerned.  

  In other threads on Townhall.com liberals have trotted out like trained puppies, their talking point lists of immoral conservatives.  But what they still fail to understand about conservatives is that we do not defend those conservatives who have been immoral.  We do not defend what they did.   We do not defend accept it as ethical behavior for a conservative just because there have been some conservatives who have been unethical or immoral.
And that is the difference that liberals seem not to understand.  And I think they refuse to see it because it would bring their whole house of cards crashing down. 

   What Foley did was wrong.  It isn't going to keep this conservative from voting this fall though.  And I do believe that it will not keep many other conservatives from voting either.  Because we know what will happen if the liberals gain control of our government again.  Because if they gain control we WILL lose the war on terror, we WILL lose the battle to regain and return to a more ethical and moral culture. 

Here in farm country, life goes on as usual.  Its harvest time and farmers are busy getting the crops in.  And celebrating life.  Today is the annual Corn Festival in our community.  It celebrates the end of harvest with all kinds of festivities.  From a parade in which there are entries by the schools, businesses and most other organizations in the county, to food booths, a craft fair and even a demolition derby.  A celebration of nothing else but LIFE in this country.  Except for maybe a heightened presence of police, you would not think a war was going on except for the flags and ribbons honoring those who serve in our military. 

  It celebrates our American way of life.  And it is carried on here and all over our country, IN SPITE, of the terrorists who by their acts of terror wish to end our life, our customs, our very culture. Our American culture.  The liberals and leftists in our country want to destroy our American culture in the name of multi-culturism.  They wish to only celebrate and honor other cultures and have those cultures maintained in our country.  They do not want the melting pot.  They only want to fracture.  Because that way they gain their agenda which is power.  Power over you, power over your family, power over your life. 

  The celebrations such as the Corn Festival here is a slap in the face of the terrorists, the multiculturists of the left and the democratic party.   It celebrates our country, our way of life, our AMERICAN way of life. 

Thank God for middle America, for those of our country living in the middle parts of our country.  Yes,  and the LEGAL immigrants who are part of this country from whatever country they came from.   Those immigrants who have become and are becoming part of the melting pot that was and can be again, our country.

So join in the celebration of life, Americans, of whatever stripe, born here or legal immigrant.  We are ALL Americans and can celebrate the Corn Festival of life in this country.  And be damned to the terroists and those traitors who wish to destroy our way of life.
