Here is a thought to think before you make resolutions for the new year.
Never be afraid to try something new. Remember: Amateurs buit the Ark, Professionals built the Titanic. And in case you never saw this one…
Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics?: 29 have been accused of spousal abuse,--7 have been arrested for fraud,--19 have been accused of writing bad checks,--117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses,--3 have done time for assault,--71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit,--14 have been arrested on drug related charges,--8 have been arrested for shoplifting,--21 are currently defendants in lawsuits,--84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year,-- can you guess which organization this is? Give up yet? -----It’s the 535 members of the United States Congress. The same group of idiots that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line. This is from an e-mail I received 11-28-2003. According to my notes about half of this was documented as truth. Since then a few have been either retired or voted out of office. At least one recently died and the rest are still there trying to destroy our country.


HAPPY NEW YEAR 1.



Welcome to the 9th issue of the Sheepdog Rag. It is soon to be Christmas day. We wish you all the wonder and joy of such a great event. In the storm of shopping and planning that takes place this time of year please remember what it is all about. It is not about commercialization but the celebration of the life of the son of God and the brotherhood of man. The celebration of faith and joy told about in our Bible and many sources in the secular life of the times.
Remember, this is a free paper. Take it home and share it with your friends and relatives. Copy it and mail it. Copy it and E-mail it. Almost everything you will find in this publication is documented to the point that we are satisfied that it is truth. We spend many hours searching the internet for statements and news. We then copy what we are allowed and enter it into ’documents’ where we change the format from internet form into normal letter form. Sometimes this involves copy and paste several times to get it out of boxes and or delete boxes and forms. One medium sized piece can take an hour or more of modification before you see what is here now. For instance, the sayings that you will find between articles are gathered and listed in one document. They are then copied and pasted here after being copied and pasted from several other sources. The size of the letters are reset sometimes from size 20 something to 9, 10 or 11 as needed. Some of what is copied and pasted in documents is several colors. Since it costs 2-3 times as much to print in color the color must be changed to black and printing blues and reds in black results in differing shades of black it must be changed before printing. After it is all readied it must be copied and pasted to another document called Sheep Dog Rag Edition #. Page numbers are then assigned. When everything is in that document and ready to print, A master copy must be made. When the master is made, holes punched and it is put in a loose leaf binder, it is time to print. The few pages like the front page are printed it is on an inkjet copy machine. I print the color pages first-10 copies. Then on a laser jet copier we start printing each page-ten copies. I use the ten copy method to minimize waste. If for instance the printer pulls 2 sheets instead of one the other side of each page can be printed and the extra is saved for the next print of 10. Each sheet (2 pages) is then stacked together in a criss cross fashion until everything in that run is printed. They then must be separated into 10 stacks which should be in order so that I have 10 copies of the rag. Each copy is then stapled together after checking and the 10 are put into a folder. Usually 30 copies are done in this fashion during the first run. These are put in the places you found them 10 at a time. I also hand deliver to several people while on my rounds doing other things like shopping. My son gets rid of 2 copies, My oldest grandson usually gets out 6-10, my other grandson another 5. So delivery day means copy another 10-20 copies have to be printed also. Then I get on the internet and e-mail a copy to several other people. Some of them have printers and print out a few for friends and family also. Some may be even distributing them like I do in places like you found your copy. After that it is copy enough to replenish what is out there. I mail copies to two people who have requested it. They are my brothers. I will mail it to anyone who furnishes an 8x10 envelope and two stamps. I must do this because I will soon hit my max I can afford when I hit 80 copies. I am on a limited income. Leave the stamped and addressed envelope where you got this copy and they will hold it for me. Thank you, God bless you and Merry Christmas!

Note from the editor (me): I have been asked about the Alenski method in the 8th edition. Alienski was a communist who gave rules for agitation used to stir up certain types of people in order to get them to accept communism. This is a method taught to the Obammas so they could use it for their community organization by Ayers who is a commie and now employed by the federal government under Obamma along with his Unkle Frank who is a commie and described in an article that is found on page 6 I believe about Holder and others.

HOW DID JEFFERSON KNOW???
Especially read the last quote from 1802.
It has been said the greatest volume of sheer brainpower in one place occurred when Jefferson dined alone...
When we get piled upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, we shall become as corrupt as Europe Thomas Jefferson
The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not. Thomas Jefferson
It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world. Thomas Jefferson
I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them. Thomas Jefferson
My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government.
Thomas Jefferson
No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms. Thomas Jefferson
The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government. Thomas Jefferson
The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Thomas Jefferson
To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical. Thomas Jefferson 2.
Thomas Jefferson said in 1802:
'I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will
deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered..'

Thankful for Fading Freedoms by Chuck Norris 11/24/2009
Abraham Lincoln once said, "Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves." But what if those who restrict our freedoms are the very people who are in charge of securing them? Over just the past year, Washington has worked double time to limit your liberties, despite the fact that such reductions have been cloaked under the guise of governmental progress.
First and foremost, Washington has reduced our freedoms and restricted our future by heaping upon our posterity astronomical amounts of debt, trying to jump-start the credit circus in our economy. Despite borrowing $787 billion from China to stimulate the economy with a promise to cap unemployment at 8 percent, unemployment has climbed to 10.2 percent and shows no sign of decreasing. And right now, a record 14 percent of homeowners are either in foreclosure or behind by at least one mortgage payment.
Because of Washington's excessive spending, bailouts and borrowing, the value of the dollar has decreased, which has restricted our financial freedoms further. Since just March 2009, the U.S. Dollar Index, which measures the strength of the dollar against other major currencies, plunged more than 15 percent, making U.S. stocks cheaper for foreign investors.
Washington also is reducing our medical choices or freedoms, by mandating a government option upon all of us. Despite the biggest economic recession since the Great Depression, like a ramrod, Washington believes it's also a good time to force another $1 trillion on American taxpayers, by providing another governmental entitlement, called universal health care In so doing, Washington is reducing our financial freedoms further and slowing future economic recovery by placing even more increased debt and taxes upon all of us.
To add insult to injury, Washington is going around the backdoor to provide illegals with universal health care by seeking their amnesty. That means Americans eventually would pay for another 14 million people's government health care. Amnesty also would reduce the number of jobs available to the unemployed by adding more to the legal work force and simultaneously would slow down the rate of the unemployed's being re-employed.
Washington also has reduced our speech freedoms guaranteed in the First Amendment, by passing a hate crimes bill that was amended to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010, criminalizing conservative free speech if it can be proved to have contributed to assaults based upon sexual orientation.
The White House even has reduced religious freedoms, by belittling America's rich Judeo-Christian heritage, enabling a secular-progressive and pro-Islamic agenda, and remaining indifferent to certain issues, such as the American Civil Liberties Union's disposal in the Mojave Desert and at Mount Soledad of memorial crosses for veterans. It also has turned a blind eye to the whitewashing of our godly heritage from Washington's historic landmarks and on U.S. artifacts. In addition, Washington would restrict religious freedoms and freedoms of conscience by forcing pro-life citizens to pay for abortions via universal health care.
Washington also has reduced our Second Amendment firearm freedoms by appointing anti-gun advocates, such as Justice Sonia Sotomayor and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's David Michaels, by seeking to micromanage gun ownership via proposed legislation, including H.R. 45, and by politics as usual, such as blaming guns rather than Islamic extremism for the shootings at Fort Hood. (Those who believe that the Second Amendment is a foundational right and freedom might want to consider my new limited edition Chuck Norris Tribute Revolver -- available through America Remembers -- on their Christmas wish lists.)
Washington also has reduced our freedoms (and those of our service members) by increasing the threats to
3.
our country via the delay in response to our generals' requests for more troops In Afghanistan, allowing Gitmo detainees and terrorists to come to the U.S., and enabling homegrown terrorists, such as Maj. Nidal Hasan, within the very fabrics of our military.
As I consider these many freedom robbers and the political culprit enabling them all, two thoughts repeatedly
come to my mind. The first is from Daniel Webster, who said, "The contest for ages has been to rescue liberty from the grasp of executive power." I believe we are in the fight of our lives -- since the Revolution itself -- for American freedoms. I don't know who said it, but I definitely prefer liberty with danger to peace with slavery.
The second thought is one attributed to M. Grundler: "It is easy to take liberty for granted, when you have never had it taken from you." I don't think I ever have been as thankful for American freedoms as I am now. I must admit that I'm appallingly alarmed that some of them might not exist at all by this time next year. Like a sunset dropping over the horizon of our Founders' dreams, our freedoms are vanishing from view.
So if you lack something for which to be thankful this Thanksgiving, you don't need to be eloquent; just bow your head, and say from your heart this simple prayer a good friend wrote and sent to me:
God is great Guns are good Let us thank them for our food and freedoms. AMEN

Holder: Court Will Convict KSM
In a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing yesterday, Attorney General Eric Holder attempted to defend his indefensible decision to provide Khalid Sheik Mohammad and four other 9/11 terrorists with all of the rights afforded to American citizens by putting them on trial in our federal court system -- mere blocks away from Ground Zero in New York City.
Holder was grilled repeatedly about his stated rationale, at times grappling to justify his own tortured logic. We’ve put together some of the most telling moments from the hearing in transcripts, all of which are edited for length.
Early on, Sen. Herb Kohl (D-Wisc.) asked a simple question that Holder obviously wasn’t prepared to answer.
SEN. HERB KOHL: In the worst case scenario and the trial does not result in conviction, what would be your next steps?
A.G. ERIC HOLDER: Failure is not an option.
That’s Plan B? Plan A will not fail? Questioning by Sen. Jon Kyle (R-Ariz.) drew cheers and applause from 9/11 family members and New York Fire Department survivors who traveled to Washington for the hearing to object to Holder’s plans.
Kyle: You have repeatedly said that your decision to try Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in Article III courts is because that is where you have the best chance to prosecute? How could you be more likely to get a conviction in federal court when Khalid Sheikh Mohammed has already asked to plead guilty before military commission and be executed?
HOLDER: The determination I make of where I think we can best try these cases does not depend on the whims or desires of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. I have decided Article III courts are the best place to do that. Khalid
Sheikh Mohammed is not making this decision. The attorney general of the United States is making this decision.
I don’t think that was an answer. Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) pressed Holder further on the issue of the
case against Mohammad being dismissed due to violations of speedy trial or Miranda rights that are afforded to defendants in our federal court system, which could be a sticky issue in federal court.
SEN. CHUCK GRASSLEY: I don’t see how you can say that failure is not an option when you’ve got juries in this country.
HOLDER: If -- if there were the possibility that a trial were not successful, that would not mean that the person would be released into our country. (SDR editor. I cannot believe this holder guy is that stupid. The intention is, for some reason, these traitors we have elected and their minions intend that this terrorist be released and not be tried.)
Terrific! We can just drop Khalid Sheik Mohammed back in Pakistan and let him pick up where he left off plotting and facilitating the efforts of Islamist nut jobs flying airplanes into our buildings.
The grand slam home run of the day came from Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.)
when he grilled Holder on the damage being done to Americas war-fighting ability by Holders actions.
SEN. LINDSEY GRAHAM: Here’s my concern. Can you give me a case in United States history where an enemy combatant caught on a battlefield was tried in civilian court?
HOLDER: I don’t know. I’d have to look at that. I think that, you know
the. . . the determination I’ve made. . .
GRAHAM: We’re making history here Mr. Attorney General. I’ll answer it for you: the answers no. The Ghelani case, he was indicted for pre-nine for the Cole bombing before 9/11 and I didn’t object going into federal
court. But I’ll tell you right now, we’re making history and we’re making bad history. And let me tell you why. If Bin Laden were caught tomorrow would it be the position of this administration that he would be brought to justice? When does custodial interrogation begin in his case? If we capture Bin Laden tomorrow would he be entitled to Miranda warnings at the moment of capture?
4.

HOLDER: Again, I’m not it all depends.
GRAHAM: Well it does not depend. If you’re going to prosecute anybody in civilian court, our law is clear that the moment custodial interrogation occurs, the defendant, the criminal defendant, is entitled to a lawyer and to be informed of their right to remain silent. The big problem I have is that you’re criminalizing the war. That if we caught Bin Laden tomorrow, there are mixed theories and we couldn’t turn him over to the CIA, the FBI, or military intelligence for an interrogation on the battlefield because now we’re saying that he is subject to criminal court in the
United States and you’re confusing the people fighting this war. What would you tell the military commander who captured him? Would you tell him you must read him his rights and give him a lawyer? And if you did tell him that would you jeopardize the prosecution in a federal court?
HOLDER: We have captured thousands of people on the battlefield, only a few of which have actually been given their Miranda warnings.
GRAHAM: If we’re going to use federal court as a disposition for terrorists, you take everything that comes with being in federal court. And what comes with being in federal court is that the rules in this country, unlike military law, you can have military operations, you can interrogate somebody for military intelligence purposes and the law
enforcement rights do not attach. But under domestic criminal law, the moment the person is in the hands of the United States Government, they’re entitled to be told they have a right to a lawyer and can remain silent. And if we go down that road we’re going to make this country less safe, that is my problem with what you have done.
During a break in the hearing, Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), a former prosecutor and top Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, spoke with HUMAN EVENTS Editor Jed Babbin about Holders failure is not an option remark.
That was a very bad mistake, I think, Sessions said. First its contrary to the Department of Justice policy, the very department he heads. When I made reference to the strong case about Khalid Sheik Mohammed in my opening statement I said alleged. That’s the policy. I think this will be just one more thing defense lawyers will raise in a civilian trial and it could be a very difficult matter.
Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), a former judge and member of the Judiciary Committee, spoke with Babbin about Holders admission that the Obama administration is still Mirandizing terrorists on the battlefield. It was news to me, Cornyn said. As I recall, KSM was picked up by Pakistani Intelligence and perhaps some of our people and he asked for a lawyer. Now he’s being given the rights an American citizen would have and there is some risk that a judge would throw out the whole case.

Giving thanks for freedom, and for those who defend it
November 26, 6:11 AM St. Louis Gun Rights Examiner Kurt Hofmann
Readers of these pages might get the idea that I am unhappy with the United States. I complain about the gun laws on the books, I warn of the dangers of gun laws (and other laws) being proposed, and I express outrage that people like me, and those with whom I most identify, are increasingly viewed as a potential threat to our way of life.
Despite all that, I love this great nation, and would not trade it for any other country on Earth. In short, as an American, I have much to be thankful for. In no particular order, and with no attempt at comprehensiveness:
I am enormously grateful for the courage and sacrifice of the brave men and women who put their lives on the line to defend this country, we the people, and our liberty. Without them, and the generations that preceded them, there would be no United States.
My gratitude to the Oath Keepers, and their vow to not let even direct orders lead them to violate their duty to the Constitution, knows no bounds. Alternately mocked and vilified in the media (and what does that say about our "watchdogs," that they see absurdity--or outright menace--in a vow to refuse unconstitutional orders?), their very existence helps deter the kinds of orders that would force them to act on their oath.
I would be remiss if I neglected thanking the Founding Fathers, for the Constitution they bequeathed us. As might be guessed, I am particularly grateful for the Second Amendment--"the true palladium of liberty." Without it, and the protection it provides to the people's right to the means to resist tyranny, our liberty depend on the good will, noble intentions, and limited ambitions of our servants, who, inevitably, tend to fancy themselves our masters. I will be forever thankful for my confidence that any serious attempt to disarm the American people will end in the deaths of the would-be disarmers.
Happy Thanksgiving. (My sentiments exactly-your nutty editor).

CHECKOUT THE BIO ON ERIC HOLDER....
I cannot attest to the validity of all this information, but I have read other accountings and it agrees
THIS IS VERY SCARY STUFF FOLKS. THESE ARE THE PEOPLE THIS MORONIC PRESIDENT HAS HIRED ON AS HIS CZARS AND HIGH RANKING STAFF. WE ALL KNOW POLITICIANS HAVE BEEN CORRUPT FOREVER, BUT THIS GUY TAKES THE CAKE. REMEMBER HOW YOU VOTE NEXT TIME......IF THERE IS A NEXT TIME!
It will take some time to read through this, so keep it for when you have the time to absorb it. It is more than a little scary, important to look at the background of all these people (Czars, advisers, etc.) Obama has brought on board to reshape this country into a socialist, communistic government. Understand most of this info comes from searching done by using their names on the internet. We need to vote out those in congress supporting this president and his policies when ever the appropriate elections take place. My mom used to say "You can tell a lot about a person by looking at he friends that he has, and who he selects to spend his time with".
Dear Friends,
Below is a sampling of President Barack Obama's White House "Brain Trust". All of these facts have been gleaned from printed resources and those are available by searching the individuals by name in Yahoo, Google, or News Search. It surprises me that an average citizen with limited internet resources and investigative skills can easily compile such a detailed summary of these individuals political and professional experiences. These people are morally bankrupt and are leading the Executive Branch of our Government down a path of Socialist and Communist reforms that will change the way our children and grand children will live 20 years from now. We must elect a completely new Congress and demand that the new faces commence investigation s and demand resignations from this Czarist gang. The Obama Administration is currently making thousands of federal bureaucratic appointments. Make no mistake. These people are about Socialism, and they are about power. Their power.
Valarie Jarrett--Obama Senior Advisor and Assistant to the President for Public Engagement and Intergovernmental Affairs. Ms. Jarrett, a product of two decades in rough-and-tumble "Chicago way" politics, and a 17-year friend of the Obama's, is described as "the other side of Barack Obama's brain." Born in Iran, Jarrett, who speaks Persian, moved to the United States as a child. A product of an elite, private, New England boarding school, she is a graduate of the University of Michigan Law School.
Jarrett served in the administration of Chicago Mayor Harold Washington (who, prior to his election, failed to file income tax returns for 19 years and during it maintained dubious Socialist ties) as well as in the scandal-ridden, current Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley. Her step-father, Vernon Jarrett was associated with Frank Marshall Davis, the youthful Barack Obama's mentor from age 10 until college - a Chicago Communist Party (USA) member who moved to Hawaii from Chicago. Frank Marshal Davis is now immortalized in President Barack Hussein Obama's "autobiography" as "Uncle Frank" -- conveniently with no mention of his last name or who he was.
According to the Washington Post, Ms. Jarrett was for many years both Michelle and Barack Obama's "tutor." Virtually every mainstream media outlet has not only done an over-the-top puff piece on Valerie Jarrett (as they repeatedly have with Mr. Obama and his wife), but all agree that neither the President not Mrs. Obama makes a move without first consulting Ms. Jarrett. Ms. Jarrett was personally responsible for bringing self-described Communist Van Jones into the White House as President Obama's environmental "Green Czar." 6.

2. Patrick Gaspard -- White House Political Director (this is the position Karl Rove held in the
Bush Administration). Prior to coming on board as President Obama's right-hand man, Mr. Gaspard was a registered federal lobbyist for the SEIU - the union members (thugs?) called-in by the Administration to run interference (sometimes violent) between Democrat members of Congress who support ObamaCare and
their own constituents. Prior to that, Gaspard worked for ACORN - the community organizing front which Barack Obama worked for as a trainer, represented as a lawyer, helped as a politician, and funneled money to as a presidential candidate.
The President Obama is as much a product of ACORN as it is of him. He worked closely with the "community organizing" group for many years, represented them in court, and was a member of the board of Chicago's Woods Fund at the time it funneled $200,000 to an ACORN affiliate. Mr. Obama praised the organization extravagantly both during and after his election, and his campaign "donated" over $800,000 to an offshoot group controlled by ACORN (Citizens Services, Inc.) - to "get out the vote."
Gaspard worked directly for now-ACORN chief Bertha Lewis as her political director for the main ACORN office which is located in New York. ACORN is mired in long-standing as well as new and growing allegations of fraud, voter-registration fraud, corruption, and massive embezzlement of funds - ACORN operative organizations have received tens of millions of dollars in federal grants. ACORN pledged $35,000,000 for voter registration drives in the 2008 election cycle.
In 2004, Patrick Gaspard served as National Field Director for America Coming Together (ACT),
a group which was later fined $775,000 in civil penalties by the federal government. ACT hired felons - some convicted of sex offenses, assault and burglary - to conduct door-to-door voter registration drives in Missouri and at least two other swing states, and also employed felons as voter canvassers in major metropolitan areas in Missouri, Florida, and Ohio.
3. Eric Holder -- Attorney General of the United States. A handpicked Obama/Jarrett selection, who earlier this year referred to the United States as "a nation of cowards" on race relations, Mr. Holder is a shiningly despicable example of everything wrong when politics and personal ambition dictate the parameters of American justice.
Prior to grasping the brass ring of the department where he'd toiled during the Clinton Administration, Mr. Holder was responsible for these widely-reported miscarriages of justice:
(1) He streamlined the Clinton Administration's pardon of fugitive billionaire Marc Rich by steering Rich's representatives to a former White House counsel, then helped lobby the President to pardon Rich ("an unrepentant fugitive wanted on extensive fraud, racketeering, and trading-with-the-enemy charges"). Holder did so for personal gain, later admitting he hoped this would help him become Attorney General in a Gore administration. Mr. Holder concealed the pardon negotiations from other prosecuting and investigative agencies to prevent their opposition. Mr. Rich's wife was a generous donor to both President Clinton's library as well as his legal-defense fund.
(2) "In 1999, over the objections of the FBI, the Bureau of Prisons, and prosecuting attorneys, Holder supported Clinton's commutation of the sentences of 16 FALN conspirators. These pardons - of terrorists
who even Holder has conceded had not expressed any remorse - were issued in the months after al-Qaeda's 1998 U.S. embassy bombings.... The commutations were nakedly political, obviously designed by Clinton to assist his wife's impending Senate campaign by appealing to New York's substantial Puerto Rican vote."
(3) Holder was also instrumental in the "stealth pardons" of two Weather Underground terrorists, Susan Rosenberg and Linda Evans (both closely associated with President Obama's terrorist friends, Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn). Rosenberg and Evans had been serving decades-long sentences for bombings targeting American government facilities. Again Holder helped circumvent the pardon process and evade objections from prosecutors regarding the terrorists' jail terms. Just this summer, now-Attorney General Holder dismissed prosecution of an obvious case (it was filmed) of voter intimidation by members of the New Black Panthers, while also instigating prosecutorial investigations into CIA interrogation techniques of terrorist combatants. Attorney General Holder is a strong advocate for the release of the Islamofascist enemy combatants currently held at Guantanamo Bay.
4. Cecelia Munoz - White House Director of Intergovernmental Affairs. Prior to being summoned to the White House by President Obama, Ms. Munoz was Senior Vice President of The National Council of La Raza. La Raza (literally, "The Race") is the largest Hispanic lobbying organization in America, and is committed not merely to a socialist agenda, but, essentially, the return of California, if not larger portions of the American West, to Hispanics. It lobbies heavily for completely open borders with Mexico, as well as 7. amnesty for all illegal aliens. In order to carry out this agenda, the U.S. federal government awarded over $15.2 million in grants to the organization in 2005 alone.
La Raza is intimately involved with the "the radical racist group Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan, or Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan (MEChA), one of the most anti-American groups in the
country, which has permeated U.S. campuses since the 1960s, and continues its push to carve a racist nation out of the American West." Aztlan's goal is the formation of a Chicano state. The closing two sentences of Atzlan's motto are: La Raza todo. Fuera de La Raza nada": "For The Race everything. Outside The Race, nothing." Which ought to be as chilling as the idea of the U.S. government funding these people.
President Obamas recent appointee to the U.S. Supreme Court, Sonia Sotomayor, has also long been deeply involved with La Raza - a fact which all Democrat Senators ignored during her confirmation hearing. Not only is Ms. Munoz wedded to La Raza, she is closely associated with the Gamaliel Foundation - an organization which both President Obama and his wife Michelle are involved and active with. On December 4, 2008, members of the Gamaliel Foundation held a "prayer" service in Washington, D.C. in which they literally and liturgically prayed to Barack Obama, "Barack, hear our prayer," as the repeated responsive plea to a minister's lengthy requests for intercession. The video-taped "prayer" service can be found online at Breitbart TV.
5. Samantha Power -- Senior Director, Multilateral Affairs, National Security Council. Ms. Power, a professor of public policy at Harvard [who is married to President Obama's Leftist fringe academic Cass Sunstein, the Administrator of the White House Office of Administration and Regulatory Affairs] was only seemingly thrown under the Obama campaign bus for referring to Hillary Clinton as "a monster" during the 2008 Democrat primary. In 2009 President Obama, tapped her to occupy her senior White House foreign policy position.
Ms. Power, a "fierce critic of Israel was indisputably Barack Obama's closest foreign policy adviser during the campaign. They go back years." Ms. Power is a notorious acolyte of appeasement-challenged, Neville-Chamberlain-clone Zbigniew Brzezinski (former President Jimmy Carter's National Security Adviser) who recently stated that the U.S. should shoot down any Israeli planes which, out of self-preservation, might fly through Iraqi air space to destroy Iran's developing nuclear facilities. Ms. Power agrees with the Charles-Freeman-published Walt-Mearsheimer-essay school of thought that America is run and being destroyed by a cabal of Jews. Power promotes the policies of disgraced anti-Semitic, Israeliphobic, pro-PLO, pro-Syria, Obama adviser Robert Malley who advocated not merely talking with Hamas, but funding the terrorist organization because he feels their policies and governance mirror that of Israel. The Obama Administration cut visible ties with Malley shortly after the election.
Power, who stridently criticized the invasion and "occupation" of Iraq, repeatedly calling for the removal of American forces from that nation, curiously advocates that America send armed military forces, "a mammoth protection force" and an "external intervention", to impose a settlement between Israel and the Palestinians. While giving the PLO, Fatah, Hamas and other obviously terrorist Arab state organizations a pass, Ms. Power views Israel, the only democratic and non-totalitarian, nation in the Middle East, as guilty of war crimes. She favors slashing, if not eliminating, United States aid to Israel - which is surrounded by several hundred million Muslims who daily pray for its total annihilation - and, apparently, giving the money to the Palestinians instead.
Ms. Power, and virtually all of her truth-through-force ilk ignore the fact that on the day Israel gained independence it was immediately attacked by the surrounding Arab neighbors who erroneously believed they could destroy the nascent country in a matter of hours. "Palestinians" (there is no such country, nor has there been since
Biblical times) who now form the "Palestinian problem" were not forced to leave Israel but instead chose to do so because Israel became a Jewish state. Hundreds of thousands of non-Jewish Arabs remained and now form a large core group of Israeli citizenry. The approximately 750,000 "Palestinians" who left, now number approximately 4,000,000. They constitute a "problem" because of all the Arab countries only Jordan has allowed them to become a part of its society. The other Arab countries bordering Israel keep the "Palestinians" in enormous desert internment camps. And they have done so to their Arab brethren for 60 years. Ms. Power and her comrades exquisitely fail to note that Jews were forced to leave Arab countries and relocate to the newly-formed Israeli state.
Like her pro-Arab "realist" co-religionists Charles Freeman, Robert Malley, Zbigniew Brzezinsk, billionaire George Soros (an influential Obama supporter), and others of their stripe, Powers opposes the "Israel lobby." She, as they, adamantly rejects the participation of American supporters of Israel, including Christians, in foreign policy discussions of the Middle East.
For all Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's public visibility, it may not be much of a conjecture that her job has been outsourced to the alpha female who once referred to Mrs. Clinton as a "monster."
6. Charles Freeman -- Nominated, but not confirmed, as Chairman of the (United States) National Intelligence Council - which is responsible for producing national intelligence estimates for the president and his advisors. Mr. Freeman has a distinguished resume of long service in both the State and Defense Departments, however, his "distinctive political views and affiliations" include: troubling financial ties to King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz of Saudi Arabia who funds the Middle East Policy Council (formerly the American Arab Affairs Council) which Mr. Freeman heads; organizational support for professors John J. Mearsheimer and Stephen M. Walt's lengthy, 8.
controversial, and essentially anti-Jewish essay, "The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy"; his stated viewpoint that
"the primary reason America confronts a terrorism problem today is "the brutal oppression of the Palestinians by an Israeli occupation"; praise for the terrorist organization, Hamas, as the only "democratically-elected" government in the
Middle East; and, bizarrely, unabashedly siding with the Chinese government over the massacre at Tiananmen Square in 1989 - Mr. Freeman criticized the Chinese government for being "overly cautious."
Once Leftist liberal, New York Senator Chuck Schumer spoke against Freeman's nomination, the gentleman withdrew - but not without "blaming his own disgrace on a Jewish conspiracy."
During his Congressional investigation, Mr. Freeman was charged with "Promoting public schools textbooks which the independent Textbook League describe a vehicle for disseminating disinformation, including a multitude of false, distorted or utterly absurd claims that are presented as historical facts. ...[with] three principal purposes: inducing teachers to embrace Islamic religious beliefs; inducing teachers to embrace political views that are favored by the...Middle East Policy Council (formerly the American Arab Affairs Council)...; and impelling teachers to disseminate those religious beliefs and political views in schools."
7. Scott Gration -- President Obama's Special Envoy to the Sudan. His diplomatic policy is, quite literally
the following: "We've got to think about giving out cookies," said Gration who was appointed in March, "Kids, countries -- they react to gold stars, smiley faces, handshakes, agreements, talk, engagement."
As even that bastion of liberal blather the Washington Post noted, "U.S. diplomacy has remained mostly in the hands of Obama's special envoy to Sudan, retired Air Force Maj. Gen. J. Scott Gration, who is pushing toward normalized relations with the only country in the world led by a president indicted on war-crimes charges."
While President Obama's handpicked "Special Envoy" was tempting genocidal Muslim radicals with "cookies" and "gold stars," marauding bands of guerrillas in the Sudan crucified seven Christians.
8. Rahm Emanuel -- White House Chief of Staff. Mr. Emanuel is the notorious hardball political player from Chicago's North Side which he represented in Congress prior to his current incarnation as President Obama's political henchman and myrmidon. The ironically named Mr. Emanuel ("God with us") is "relentlessly partisan," thereby quite succinctly putting the lie to Mr. Obama's campaign claim to "post-partisanship."
Nicknamed "Rhambo," President Obama's Chief of Staff - the highest ranking office of the Executive Branch of the President of the United States - is well-know for the following accomplishments: (1) A casual conversation style addictively laced with the most outrageous profanities and gutter language at any and all times; (2) Sending a 21/2 foot-long dead and decomposing fish to lobbyist Allen Secrest with whom he was angry; (3) Threatening then-British Prime Minister Tony Blair just prior to a joint appearance with then-President Bill Clinton: "This is important. Don't f--- it up. (4) At dinner the night after Bill Clinton was elected President in 1992, "Rhambo" ranted about a long list of people who were the subject of his ire. As he shouted each "enemy's" name, Mr. Emanuel punctuated his rage by forcefully stabbing the dinner table and screaming, "Dead!" Outside of murdering a Congressional page, it is relatively difficult to improve upon these glowing characteristics of mental stability and leadership. Rahm Emanuel is Ezekiel Emanuel, "Dr. Death's," brother.
9. Ezekiel Emanuel -- President Obama's Special Advisor for Health Policy to the Office of Management and Budget. Nicknamed in the press "Dr. Death" after former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin and former New York Lieutenant Governor Betsy McCaughey pointed out Dr. Emanuel's "healthcare" role assisting the White House in the preparation and administration of federal budget recommendations for guiding healthcare and healthcare initiatives, Dr. Emanuel (again, application of the absurdly ironic name, "God with us") is a "bioethicist." He is also hailed as President Obama's "Rationer-in-Chief." Generally, Emanuel's idea of healthcare rationing is to greatly restrict many treatments, medicines, and procedures to anyone over 40 and more particularly to anyone over 65. Dr. Emanuel feels Comparative similarly about the newly born until they have attained several years of age at which time he begins to view them in Malthusian terms of potential communitarian utility.
As Lt. Governor McCaughey noted, "In numerous writings, Dr. Emanuel chastises physicians for thinking only about their own patient's needs." This is the man who was personally tapped to guide ObamaCare health initiatives - not only by President Obama and his Chief of Staff... but also by "the other side of Barack's brain," Valerie Jarrett.
Mr. Emanuel is yet another in a tedious yet frighteningly long line of unqueried, unquestioned, and unvetted Obama dvisors and "czars" about whom nothing can be known until pulled from beneath labyrinths of liberal camouflage by interested citizens, conservative Internet bloggers, and the staffs of conservative talk shows. Mainstream media long ago forfeited its credibility as well as its societal role as the fourth estate.
Dr. Emanuel is a member of the President's Federal Coordinating Council for Effectiveness Research (curiously enough authorized under the dazzling rushed-through and unread by a single Congressman, American Recovery and Investment Act... "the Stimulus Bill") which, if allowed, will make decisions about the validity, "relative strengths and weakness of various medical interventions" as well as give clinicians...information to make decisions that will improve the performance of the U.S. health care system. Not improve medical care much less your medical care, but the "system." It's called "rationing," and it will very likely result in unnecessary and preventable early deaths. On a very large scale.
One final point. Due to the ambiguity of the relevant language in the Stimulus Bill as well as in the various ObamaCare "reform" proposals, there will not only be great latitude for interpretation of various laws' meaning, but
9.
these interpretations will require being instituted, oversight, and, of course, regulation. The necessity of regulation
allows President Obama's Administrator of the White House Office of Administration and Regulatory Affairs Cass Sunstein carte blanche to regulate whatever he likes.
Mr. Emanuel is the brother of White House Chief of Staff, and former North Side Chicago Congressman (5th District of Illinois) Rahm ("dead fish") Emanuel.
10. Cass Sunstein -- Administrator of the White House Office of Administration and Regulatory Affairs. He is a Harvard Law School professor and newly-minted husband of President Obama's Senior Director, Multilateral Affairs, National Security Council, the Israel-phobic Samantha Power (one of several husband-wife teams in the Obama White House). Mr. Sunstein's belief structure could understandably be called "Leftist kook" or "fringe" if not downright lunatic. Herewith: In a 2007 speech at Harvard, Sunstein called for banning all hunting in the United States. All of it every where. He actually put in writing, in his 2004 book, Animals that, "Animals should be permitted to bring [law] suit, with human beings as their representatives...." "There should be extensive regulation of the use of animals in entertainment, in scientific experiments, and in agriculture."
Mr. Sunstein, who openly argues for bringing socialism to the U.S. and even lends support to communism, wrote, "The absence of a European-style social welfare state is certainly connected with the widespread perception among the white majority that the relevant programs would disproportionately benefit African Americans (and more recently Hispanics)..."
"Almost all gun control legislation is constitutionally fine. And if the Court is right, then fundamentalism does not justify the view that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to bear arms." Were Mr. Sunstein to succeed as President Obama's head regulator of all things American, what might happen to those millions of hunting rifles and shotguns he doesn't want gathering dust in your cabinet?
Mr. Sunstein is a reputed "1st Amendment scholar." Having attended law school myself and actually practiced law for a quarter century rather than retreat to the head-swelling-brain-shrinking environs of academia, I can assure you that if he is, America is in very deep trouble. President Obama has made clear his White House Master regulator is intended to regulate virtually every aspect of American's lives - including the environment, healthcare, finance, and the economy - regardless of your feelings about such matters much less your freedom and liberty. Sunstein has argued in his prolific literary works (one bookstore tour de force was a whopping 84 pages) that the Internet is anti-democratic because of the way users can filter out information of their own choosing.
He went on to assert: A system of limitless individual choices, with respect to communications, is not necessarily in the interest of citizenship and self-government.. Democratic efforts to reduce the resulting problems ought not be rejected in freedom's name.
As World Net Daily noted: "It's hard to imagine President Obama nominating a more dangerous candidate for regulatory czar than Cass Sunstein....Not only is Sunstein an animal-rights radical, but he also seems to have a serious problem with our First Amendment rights. Sunstein has advocated everything from regulating the content of personal e-mail communications, to forcing nonprofit groups to publish information on their websites that is counter to their beliefs and mission.... If it were up to Obama and Sunstein, everything we read online - right down to our personal e-mail communications - would have to be inspected and approved by the federal government."
11. Van Jones -- President Obama's former White House Environmental Adviser ("Green Jobs Czar"). Mr. Jones remains a self-defined Communist community organizer from the San Francisco Bay area (Oakland, California). He is also a Whites-hating racist with a criminal arrest record, as well as a "9/11 Truther" true believer. The 9/11 Truther organizations proselytize that former President George W. Bush and former Vice President Richard Cheney either planned or knew about the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks conducted by 19 Islamofascist members of Al-Qaeda who, aside from slamming a passenger jetliner into the Pentagon, did the same in New York City totally destroying the Twin Towers and killing almost 3,000 Americans.
When Mr. Jones, an ardent racist and Communist, was hired into the White House by "the other half of Barack's brain," Ms. Valerie Jarrett, she expressed overflowing praise in the press and in video-taped interviews for Mr. Jones and his work, noting that "we have been watching him for a long time.” Thank God he has been removed but we know not what evil he will come up with.
12. Carol M. Browner -- Director of the White House Office of Energy and Climate Change Policy. Ms.
Browner is a Socialist sycophant of Al Gore's conclusion that the earth is going to evaporate tomorrow. A former EPA director, Ms. Browner is married to Leftist lobbyist Thomas Downey and remains an ardent Socialist activist. She is one of 14 leaders of Socialist International's, "Commission for a Sustainable World Society," which calls for "global governance."
As Van Jones was an admitted Communist, Ms. Browner is an admitted and very active Socialist. What more really need be said about her with reference to President Obama who has been fully informed of her moral relativity and anti-Americanism for years since she has hardly kept it secret from either her associates, the public, or the press.
13. John Holdren -- Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy. Other than Mr. Holdren's well known and oft repeated morally relativistic denial of American exceptionalism, one and only one thing need to be said here about President Obama's "Science" Czar - he is Barack Obama's twin on the matter of abortion and has advocated compulsory abortion. Here it is again: President Obama searched for, reached out, and chose as his chief "science advisor" a plasma physicist who advocates compulsory abortion. 10.

As John Griffing wrote of Holdren in "Enough is Enough," for American Thinker: ..for a true outrage, consider new Czar of Science, John P. Holdren, who, in a stunning display of unabashed evil, has actively advocated"
compulsory abortion": There exists ample authority under which population growth could be regulated...It has been concluded that compulsory population-control laws, even including laws requiring compulsory abortion, could be sustained under the existing Constitution if the population crisis became sufficiently severe to endanger the society.
If that doesn't send a chill down your spine, consider his words, "All the children who are born, beyond what would be required to keep up the population to a desired level, must necessarily perish, unless room be made for them by the death of grown persons." Let that sink in: an American official supports forced abortion and the death of "grown persons." We know what that looks like. It has been official policy for years in Communist China.
President Obama quite literally has the single worst record of any elected official on the question of abortion. While in the Illinois legislature he single-handedly prevented that state's Born Alive Infant Protection Act from leaving his committee much less being made into law. As a result, for three more years until legislator Obama became U. S. Senator Obama, Illinois hospitals and doctors were permitted to allow otherwise healthy infants who survived an abortion to receive no medical attention whatsoever until they died. They were simply, and quite literally, "shelved." The evidence of Mr. Obama's actions and callous disregard for the lives of infants is overwhelming.
14. Kevin Jennings -- President Obama's Safe Schools Czar. Jennings is a former schoolteacher who has very successfully advocated promoting homosexuality in schools, written about his past drug abuse, unashamedly and vituperatively expressed his utter contempt for religion, and detailed an incident in which he did not report to authorities his knowledge that an underage student told him he was having sex with older men - Jennings instead counseled the boy to "use a condom. In 1990, as a teacher in Massachusetts, [Jennings] founded the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN), which now has over 40 chapters at schools nationwide. He has also published six books on gay rights and education...."
In the past, Mr. Jennings has praised Harry Hay, the frequent and vocal defender of NAMBLA - the North American Man-Boy Love Association, which promotes the legalization of sexual abuse of young boys by older men.
His organization, Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network, has successfully prodded some schools into making October the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgendered (LGBT) Month, as well as established November 28th as "Transgender Day of Remembrance."
None of this belongs in any school anywhere, any time, and the fact that the Obama Administration chooses to support such people with such goals and then put them in positions of great authority and power should make even the most dyed-in-the-wool middle-class liberal Democrats cringe at the depth of either their negligence, uncaring, or stupidity regarding the real Barack Hussein Obama. And I bet all the teachers in America didn't know this - according to Mr. Jennings (at a New York University "Education Policy Breakfast): "... you cannot be an effective teacher if you are not aware of how [lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender] biases can influence how you interact with your students. Pure and simple."
To which Mr. Jennings added, "It should be impossible to graduate from NYU or any other school of education without coursework - required coursework - that address issues of [LGBT] bias in the classroom and how it might influence your teaching. [It] should be a graduation requirement."
In 1999, Mr. Jennings wrote the foreword for an elementary education instruction book, Queering Elementary Education, the description of which states that it examines "five broadly-defined areas in elementary education: foundational issues; social and sexual development; curriculum; the family; and gay/lesbian educators and their allies. It seeks to provide scholarly insights, pedagogical strategies, and curricular resources for use in schools. At the core of the book is the belief that public school educators have the responsibility to affirm sexual diversity..." In elementary school?
It is Jennings himself, Obama's "Safe-School Czar," who coined the term "safe school" as a euphemism for "pro-homosexual" school. Children's physical safety had nothing and has even less to do now with Mr. Jennings educational background, "expertise," or agenda. "Jennings was obviously chosen for this job because of the safe schools aspect... defining 'safe schools' narrowly in terms of 'safe for homosexuality'," says Peter Sprigg, a senior fellow at the Family Research Council.
"Safe school" is hardly the only word commandeered by Jennings and the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) to support propagandizing his model "safe school" into mainstream elementary education. Others include, and parents should be alert to "seemingly innocuous terms as safe school,' anti-bullying,' safe space,' hate-free, tolerance,' respect differences,' be an ally,' no name calling day,' be who you are,' free to be fully me,' day of silence,' and so forth. If these terms are present [in school instructional materials], they are [probably] defined by Jennings, not Webster, and the accompanying curricular material will probably be objectionable. Jennings' jargon and the mythical bullying epidemic even showed-up in the recent Presidential address to school children."
The Obama Administration was certainly aware of these facts long before the President and Ms. Jarrett selected Mr. Jennings, just as they selected Van Jones, and all the other members of the Obama Administration discussed here. This is the type of colossal lack of judgment the President of The United States has not merely chosen to surround himself with, but in fact personally displays every day. Feeling any "safer" about your kids?
11.
15. Chai Feldblum -- Obama nominee to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission who signed a
manifest seeking, inter alia, to legalize polygamy ("to protect households in which there is more than one conjugal partner"). See, online petition entitled Beyond Same-Sex Marriage: A New Strategic Vision For All Our Families and Relationships. Feldblum is an outspoken homosexual rights activist and Georgetown University law professor. She is "co-director of Workplace Flexibility 2010, which she described at [a] UCLA symposium as a homosexual rights group that aimed to change the American workplace and revolutionize social mores. This is a war that needs to be fought,'' Feldblum asserted, "'and it's not a war overseas where we are killing people in the name of liberating them."
16. William Ayers -- Obama friend, neighbor, fellow board member, "respected" national educator, virulently anti-American, and dramatically unrepentant radical terrorist bomber. Mr. Ayers famously stated: "I am a radical, Leftist, small c' Communist...Maybe I'm the last Communist who is willing to admit it.... The ethics of Communism still appeal to me."
Perhaps Mr. Ayers most notable statement was made to the New York Times in a story released on September 11, 2001: "I don't regret setting bombs; I feel we didn't do enough," It has gradually come to light that Mr. Ayers, far from the casual acquaintance President Obama made him out to be during the 2008 election, is quite likely the real author of Mr. Obama's "autobiography," Dreams of My Father.
Mr. Ayers approach to education is as authoritarian as is his approach to society as a whole - otherwise he would not have planted terrorist bombs in an effort to compel his personal beliefs upon the rest of society. As Sol Stern of City Journal wrote:
Ayers's influence on what is taught in the nation's public schools is likely to grow in the future. Last month, he was elected vice president for curriculum of the 25,000-member American Educational Research Association (AERA), the nation's largest organization of education-school professors and researchers. Ayers won the election handily, and there is no doubt that his fellow education professors knew whom they were voting for. In the short biographical statement distributed to prospective voters beforehand, Ayers listed among his scholarly books Fugitive Days, an unapologetic memoir about his ten years in the Weather Underground. The book includes dramatic accounts of how he bombed the Pentagon and other public buildings.
Ayers's politics have hardly changed since his Weatherman days. He still boasts about working full-time to bring down American capitalism and imperialism. This time, however, he does it from his tenured perch as Distinguished Professor of Education at the University of Illinois, Chicago. Instead of planting bombs in public buildings, Ayers now works to indoctrinate America's future teachers in the revolutionary cause, urging them to pass on the lessons to their public school students.
The Ayers-Obama Socialist-conversion mission carried out with the Chicago Annenberg Challenge's $100,000,000 was a total failure, producing zero results in student learning, but succeeded in massive transfers of wealth to Leftist, Socialist, and even the Communist causes of long-time Ayers ally, Mike Klonsky, a former S.D. S. leader, college professor and Director of the Small Schools Workshop. However, neither Mr. Ayers nor President Obama have given up on their radical Leftist agenda.
Ayers is married to unrepentant Weather Underground terrorist Bernadine Dohrn who was once jailed for refusing to testify before a grand jury investigating other Weather Underground members' robbery of a Brinks truck, in which a guard and two New York State Troopers were killed. Like her husband, she remains involved and influential in school programs.
For Mr. Ayers, Mr. Freeman, Mr. Jennings, Mr. Chu, and President Obama's Secretary of Education, yet another Chicagoan, Arne Duncan - and far too many others in the Obama Administration - education is solely about pursuing then mandating the radicalization of children through indoctrination in Leftist policies, "social justice" curricula, and Socialism itself in public schools.

Still on the Fence?
Dear Fellow Citizens and Taxpayers,
We still need more people to engage in this process of getting involved. So, for t hose who think - this doesn’t effect me...I don't need to get involved. Are you still on the fence? Because it's coming your way ...
Here are a few points taken from a recent Wall Street Journal editorial author editing the healthcare bill that was just passed in the House: On Nov. 2, the Congressional Budget Office estimated what the plans will likely cost. An individual earning $44,000 before taxes who purchases his own insurance will have to pay a $5,300 premium and an estimated $2,000 in
out-of-pocket expenses, for a total of $7,300 a year, which is 17% of his pre-tax income.
A family earning $102,100 a year before taxes will have = to pay a $15,000 premium plus an estimated $5,300 out-of-pocket, for a $20,300 total, or 20% of its pre-tax income. Individuals and families earning less than these amounts will be eligible for subsidies paid directly to their insurer.
· Sec. 202 (p. 91-92) of the bill requires you to enroll in a "qualified plan." If you get your insurance at work, your employer will have a "grace period" to switch you to a "qualified plan," meaning a plan designed by the Secretary of Health and Human Services. If you buy your own insurance, there's 12.
no grace period. You'll have to enroll in a qualified plan as soon as any term in your contract changes, such as the co-pay, deductible or benefit.
· Sec. 224 (p. 118) provides that 18 months after the bill becomes law, the Secretary of Health
and Human Services will decide what a "qualified plan" covers and how much you'll be legally required to pay for it. That's like a banker telling you to sign the loan agreement now, then filling in the interest rate and repayment terms 18 months later.
· Sec. 59b (pp. 297-299) says that when you file your taxes, you must include proof that you are in a qualified plan. If not, you will be fined thousands of dollars. Illegal immigrants are exempt from this requirement.
· Sec. 412 (p. 272) says that employers must provide a "qualified plan" for their employees and pay 72.5% of the cost, and a smaller share of family coverage, or incur an 8% payroll tax. Small businesses, with payrolls from $500,000 to $750,000, are fined less.
Medicare Changes
· Sec. 1114 (pp. 391-393) replaces physicians with physician assistants in overseeing care for hospice patients.
· Secs. 1158-1160 (pp. 499-520) initiates programs to reduce payments for patient care to what it costs in the lowest cost regions of the country. This will reduce payments for care (and by implication the standard of care) for hospital patients in higher cost areas such as New York and Florida.
· Sec. 1161 (pp. 520-545) cuts payments to Medicare Advantage plans (used by 20% of seniors). Advantage plans have warned this will result in reductions in optional benefits such as vision and dental care.
· Sec. 1402 (p. 756) says that the results of comparative effectiveness research conducted by the government will be delivered to doctors electronically to guide their use of "medical items and services."
Other Priorities
· Sec. 399V (p. 1422) provides for grants to community "entities" with no required qualifications except having "documented community activity and experience with community healthcare workers to "educate, guide, and provide experiential learning opportunities" aimed at drug abuse, poor nutrition, smoking and obesity. "Each community health worker program receiving funds under the grant will provide services in the cultural context most appropriate for the individual served by the program." These programs will "enhance the capacity of individuals to utilize health services and health related social services under Federal, State and local programs by assisting individuals in establishing eligibility . . . and in receiving services and other benefits" including transportation and translation services.
· Sec. 222 (p. 617) provides reimbursement for culturally and linguistically appropriate services. This program will train health-care workers to inform Medicare beneficiaries of their "right" to have an interpreter at all times and with no co-pays for language services.
· Secs. 2521 and 2533 (pp. 1379 and 1437) establishes racial and ethnic preferences in awarding grants for training nurses and creating secondary- school health science programs. For example, grants for nursing schools should "give preference to programs that provide for improving the diversity of new nurse graduates to reflect changes in the demographics of the patient population." And secondary-school grants should go to schools "graduating students from disadvantaged backgrounds including racial and ethnic minorities."
· Sec. 305 (p. 189) Provides for automatic Medicaid enrollment of newborns who do not otherwise have insurance.

The next stage of engagement starts now. As always, see list of Congressman below.. Call, write and visit in person. A vote has occurred, but that doesn't mean we can stop. Debate will
move to the Senate and it hasn't passed yet. The pep rally was fun, but the game is about to start. Are you ready to play? Sincerely, Chris Littleton Cincinnati Tea Party

THE PRESIDENCY
OBAMA'S LOVE OF ISLAM President Barack Obama cannot criticize anything done in the name of Islam, not even terror. Speaking at the conclusion of a conference just after the Jihad terror attack at Ft. Hood, President Obama said, "I planned to make some broader remarks. But as some of you might have heard there has been a tragic shooting at the Fort Hood Army base in Texas." The next morning before talking about the increasing joblessness in America he said, "This morning I met with FBI Director Mueller and the relevant agencies to discuss their ongoing investigation into what caused one individual to turn his gun on fellow servicemen and women. We don't know all of the answers yet, and I would caution against jumping to conclusions until we have all of the facts." This is a man who very early in his Presidency flew to the Muslim nations to assure them that he understood Islam and honored Islam. See video of him bowing to a Muslim king. Although he flew to Ft. Hood for a eulogy service for those killed, he has done all in his power to silence voices calling Nidal Malik Hasan's attack what it was, Islamic terrorism against unarmed men and women.
OMABA'S POLITICALLY CORRECT GENERAL
Soldiers serving under Army Chief of Staff George Casey, Jr. died and others were gravely injured, but the general's first response was to say “a greater tragedy" would be if their deaths caused discomfort to Muslims. On CNN he said, "I am worried - not worried, but I'm concerned that this increased speculation could cause a backlash against some of our Muslim soldiers. And I've asked our Army leaders to be on the lookout for that. It would be a shame - as great a tragedy as this was - it would be a shame if our diversity became a casualty as well. " Later on ABC he upped political correctness saying any "backlash" against Muslims would be "an even greater tragedy." Shamefully, this political correctness began with President George W. Bush, but has reached the point of self destructive insanity under Barack Obama.
SPECIAL ARMY UNIT FOR MUSLIMS ONLY
The 51st Translation Interpreter Company at Fort Irwin is an all Muslim unit -- no Christians or Jews allowed. The unit consists of 120 Muslims who were "recruited.” Why are Christians and Jews prohibited from positions in this unit and what justification is given by the United States Army in this regard? just imagine the outrage of the ACLU and the leftist media if there were an all Jewish unit that worked on translations with Israeli intelligence. These Muslims were "recruited" with bonuses to join the Army, and many of them are there because of the money offered, not because of patriotism. Over 85% of those of Arab descent in the United States are Christians whose families have fled Muslim repression. Also, there are thousands of Iraqi Christian refugees who have worked as translators who are available. But the Army recruits Muslims, some with dubious connections to mosques that promote Jihad, all to prove how politically correct the Army is. Note to General Casey: Your job is to win wars, not to manage diversity.
AND THE NAVY
The six member volunteer Color Guard from the Naval Academy sent to the World Series consisted of all white men. When the top brass found this out they demanded diversity, so a white woman and a "Pakistani - American" were added to increase the Color Guard to eight members. But the "Pakistani - American" forgot part of his uniform. He and one white male were removed so the woman could furnish the "diversity." I am very sure that if the brass could have figured out how to get a Koran in the picture they would have done that as well.
THE CONGRESS
OFFICIAL PROTEST CONCERNING MUSLIM ARMY UNIT
The Religious Freedom Coalition has made an official protest with several members of Congress asking for answers as to why the US Army is maintaining units "for Muslims only." The protest came in light of the disclosure that the 51st Translation Interpreter Company at Fort Irwin is an all Muslim unit. Results of the protest will be reported in these updates.
BILL CLINTON ADVISES THE SENATE
Former President Bill Clinton huddled with Senator Reid and other Democrats at a closed door meeting this past week. Clinton was sent by President Barack Obama to encourage the Senate to pass the Obama Care plan which squeaked through the House last week by two votes. Both Obama and Clinton are convinced that the reason the GOP took over the House in 1994 was because Democrats did not pass universal health care. Obama and Clinton believe that if the legislation passes, the Democrats will pick up

CULTURE AND RELIGION
VICTIMHOOD OF HASAN -One of the excuses being given for the Jihad terror attack at Fort Hood is that Nidal Hasan once had a bumper sticker removed from his car that expressed his Islamic faith. Dozens of major media outlets have offered this as proof that he was "persecuted as a Muslim." Removing a bumper sticker is "persecution," and in part the justification for mass murder? Newsweek editor Evan Thomas said, "I cringe that he's a Muslim. I mean, because it inflames all the fears. I think he's probably just a nut case. But with that label attached to him, it will get the right wing going and it just -- I mean these things are tragic, but t hat makes it much worse." In other words liberals would have much preferred the shooter to have been a crazed white male carrying a Bible.
The reality of Hasan's treatment is the reverse of what liberals try t o portray. Nidal Hasan was treated by everyone in the Army who came in contact with him with extra sensitivity because he was so openly a radical Muslim of Arab descent. It was sort of like being a homosexual at a firm like Microsoft, where a gay man can't get fired no matter how much he screws up. Hasan did poorly in the Army Medical School and would have been flunked out had he been a Christian or Jew. The Army wanted a Muslim psychiatrist so badly that it lowered its standards and allowed a man to obtain a medical degree who was not only a dimwit, but one who promoted Jihadist concepts. Under his name on his business cards the letters "SOA" appeared for "Soldier of Islam." He not only contacted those In Yemen promoting Jihad, but there is now evidence he sent funds to terrorist organizations in the Middle East as well. The FBI knew this, the CIA knew this and Army Intelligence knew this. BUT, he was the Army's only Muslim psychiatrist, so it was hands off. Had he been a Jew who radically supported Israel, he probably would have been arrested for "spying." But because Hasan was a Muslim, he was a "victim" regardless of his actions. Good op-ed on this subject
MODERATE CAIR?
Our military turns to the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) to help recruit "moderate" imams as chaplains. Also, the FBI has cooperated with CAIR In the past, even asking their advice on various matters. Even before all the bodies were removed from Ft. Hood following the latest Jihad attack, CAIR representatives were in the media condemning the attack and expressing concern about a "backlash" against Muslims. Just how "moderate" is this organization? As one example, a frequent speaker at CAIR events is Zaid Shakir, who says it is wrong to shoot down civilian aircraft in the USA, but OK to shoot down aircraft carrying military service personel, even within the United States. Now we know what CAIR means by "moderate". Read more
WHY DID FBI QUESTION VIRGINIA PASTOR?
Several weeks ago I reported that a friend of mine, Rev. Patrick Mahoney, was questioned by the FBI as to why he organized a demonstration at the Chinese Embassy in Washington, in support of religious freedom. In light of the FBI looking the other way from the radical contacts of Nidal Hasan before his Jihad attack that killed 13 at Ft. Hood, there are some questions Rev. Mahoney wants answered. He stated, "It is even more troubling to realize that I was visited at my home by the FBI for peacefully exercising my First Amendment rights, yet Major Hasan received no such visit by the FBI for contacting Islamic terrorists multiple times and making threatening comments to the American military. How is it possible that a Christian minister is investigated and questioned by federal agents for holding a peaceful prayer vigil and a person who killed 13 people and had numerous contacts with terrorists was never visited or questioned?" Those are questions the FBI should be forced by congressional investigators to answer.

VICTIMS OR VICTIMHOOD
WHEN THE SHOOTER BECOMES THE VICTIM
On November 12th the Washington Times' lead editorial concerned the new victim hood of Jihad terrorist Nidal Hasan. The editorial is interesting in that it observes how the mainstream media always "bemoan the perpetrator's troubles and then sprinkle them with pop psychology." Although not mentioned in the editorial, Dr. Phil managed to give his half witted view of the killer's motives without mentioning the victims on Larry King Live. I lean toward the view that by this time next year the New York Times will run an editorial on how the shooing victims at Ft. Hood somehow forced Hasan to pull the trigger. Read editorial
A FULL LIST OF HASAN'S JIHAD VICTIMS -
A list of the victims and stories of their lives is not easy to find even on the Internet. The mainstream media has focused on the shooter. But a Dallas-Ft Worth TV station has done a pretty good job at listing the thirteen dead and giving a little of their backgrounds. 15.
INTERNATIONAL
IRAQI CHRISTIANS IN JORDAN - Our ministry partner from Amman, Jordan visited Washington, DC this week. Among other activities, he made a presentation before t he regional directors of the Christian women's organization Aglow International who were in Washington, DC for a conference. Meetings were also held with some congressmen and their staff members. The delivery options for our next major shipment of medical supplies in November was also discussed. Several people have sent e-mails asking why we do not mention names of the organizations and people who work with us in Jordan and other Muslim nations. Regretfully the names and photographs are not used for reasons of security. Dead men can't help anyone. Your help is still needed.

Army to Allow Some Media Coverage During Palin Event at Fort Bragg
Updated November 19, 2009 by AP
The Army will allow the media some limited access to Sarah Palin during her appearance at Fort Bragg, after initially saying they would prohibit coverage .RALEIGH, N.C. -- The U.S. Army will allow the media limited coverage of Sarah Palin's appearance at Fort Bragg, but will bar reporters from interviewing her or her supporters on the post, officials said Thursday.
A Fort Bragg spokesman initially said the Army would ban the media from Palin's book signing next week, fearing it would turn into political grandstanding against President Barack Obama. After The Associated Press and The Fayetteville Observer protested, Col. Billy Buckner said the post would permit restricted access. A small pool of reporters will be allowed to view and document the event but will be barred from the interviews. The public will be allowed.
Buckner said the setup will allow reporters their right to access while preventing the appearance from turning political -- something that officials believe would violate policy. "If media are present, they can capture the imagery of what's going and sort of the ambiance of what's taking place," he said.
Fort Bragg, which is base for some 35,000 soldiers, does not hold many promotional events, especially not with political figures. Officials said they worried that media coverage would turn the appearance into a chance for people to express political opinions "directed against the commander in chief."
"The main reason is to stop this from turning into a political platform," said Fort Bragg spokesman Tom McCollum. "There are Army regulations that basically prohibit military reservations from becoming political platforms by politicians." Palin has already agreed not to give a speech, McCollum said. Palin will sign her new book for people and will not stop to pose for photographs, officials said. A spokeswoman for the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee and former Alaska governor didn't immediately return an e-mail message seeking comment and a spokeswoman for Palin's publisher, HarperCollins, did not immediately return a call.
Palin began a promotional tour this week for her memoir, "Going Rogue," with plans to travel through several states that were key to the 2008 election, including North Carolina. She made several stops in the state while campaigning on the ticket of GOP presidential nominee John McCain.
McCollum said it's not clear if military officials consider Palin a politician but noted that she has been critical of Obama while promoting the book. She said in an interview with ABC News that Obama should provide more troops to Afghanistan. It frustrates me and frightens me -- and many Americans -- that President Obama is dithering around with the decision in Afghanistan," she said.
Palin doesn't appear to be using her book signings to promote her politics. She spoke briefly to supporters in Michigan on Wednesday, saying it was great to be there and not mentioning Obama. At least one person in the crowd yelled: "Palin power. 2012, yes." (One half crazed editor notes that this smacks of denying free speech. Why don’t we start screaming CIVIL RIGHTS! It worked for the black people why should it not for all of us?)

President Obama, Time To Make a Decision by Chuck Norris 11/03/2009
16.
Let me see whether I have the facts straight. In May, President Barack Obama removed Gen. David D. McKiernan as the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan and replaced him with Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal -- who, in
September, issued a dire report warning that without as many as 40,000 more troops for the fight in Afghanistan, the mission "will likely result in failure." President Obama responded by saying that he would make no quick decision but take as long as needed to do a broad study first on the issue. Meanwhile, more U.S. troops died at the hands of our enemies.
Roughly a month after McChrystal's requests, White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel continued to blame the Bush administration for the chaos in the war. White House press secretary Robert Gibbs blamed former Vice President Dick Cheney. Vice President Joe Biden blamed the generals for a bad military plan. And presidential adviser David Axelrod blamed Fox News. Meanwhile, more U.S. troops died at the hands of our enemies.
Two weeks ago, when asked about Obama's indecisiveness about McChrystal's requests, Gibbs rebuffed: "The president will make a decision in the next few weeks. ... I don't know when that decision will be. It could be before the runoff (election in Afghanistan on Nov. 7); it might be after the runoff." Meanwhile, more U.S. troops died at the hands of our enemies.
Last Friday, the president met with the Joint Chiefs of Staff and discussed the Afghanistan-Pakistan situation some more and then said he wants another meeting. It has been almost two months since Gen. McChrystal first warned the president of the dire situation in Afghanistan, yet our commander in chief continues to delay a response. Meanwhile, record numbers of U.S. troop casualties mount in Afghanistan.
Is Obama's delay a bout genuine concern, or could it be simply a politically driven tactic for upcoming U.S. and Afghan elections? So much for Obama's campaign promise that he would "make the fight against al-Qaida and the Taliban the top priority that it should be." President Obama, stop riding the fence!
While the White House procrastinates in protecting our troops, the least we can do as Americans is find a way to support them. I even read recently about Marine Lt. Col. Jeffrey Chessani -- who, for more than 20 years, has served his country honorably. He has done three tours in Iraq and also served in Panama and the Gulf War. Despite his commendable service, however, on Dec. 1, Lt. Col. Chessani will face a military board of inquiry to determine whether he is guilty of misconduct and should be demoted because of the "Haditha massacre" -- an event now known never to have occurred. You can read more about his military tribunal and donate to his case at the Thomas More Law Center's Web site (http://www.ThomasMore.org).
Whether it's donating to Lt. Col. Chessani's case, starting a campaign against the delays in Washington or preparing Christmas care packages for our troops, I want to encourage all Americans to find a way this holiday season to support our service members, particularly those in the Middle East.
There's nothing funny about war -- nothing. But if something puts a smile on the faces of our service
members, then count me in. That is why I recently set up with the nonprofit, nonpartisan organization Give2TheTroops (http://www.Give2TheTroops.org) a way to bless the troops with copies of my fun and inspirational new book, "The Official Chuck Norris Fact Book," which contains 101 of my favorite Chuck Norris "facts" and related stories (many military). The book was released this week, and proceeds from it go to help http://www.KickStartKids.org. You can see samples, read and purchase "The Official Chuck Norris Fact Book" at Amazon.com for less than $10.
And should you want to bless our troops with a copy (or copies) of the book, during your online checkout for the book you can arrange to have it shipped directly to Give2TheTroops' national headquarters via the address below. Give2TheTroops will ensure that the books are included in their Christmas care packages, sent overseas and placed into the hands of our service members. Please ship the books to: Give2TheTroops, 196 West St., Rocky Hill, CT 06067.
As a family member who has experienced the military sacrifice of a loved one (my brother Wieland in Vietnam in 1970) and as a veteran of the Air Force who was based in Korea, I, like many of you, understand the costs of fighting for freedom. So let's join together in extending a simple thank you, a letter or an outstretched hand of gratitude to our service members and their families. Thanking you in advance for your support.

Subject: "CHANGE"
Over five thousand years ago, Moses said to the children of Israel " pick up your shovel, mount your asses and camels, and I will lead you to the promised land".
Nearly 75 years ago, Roosevelt said, " Lay down your shovels, sit on your asses, and light up a camel, this is the promised land".
Now Obama has stolen your shovel, taxed your asses, raised the price of camels, and mortgaged the promised land.

Thousands of Jobs Scammed or Created Wednesday, November 18, 2009 By Ben Shapiro
President Obama has repeatedly stated that his stimulus package has “saved or created” hundreds of thousands of jobs. And hundreds of thousands of jobs have been created. In Unicornland. According to the Recovery.gov website—a website that the Obama administration has spent $18 million “stimulating”—millions have been spent and hundreds of jobs have been created in heretofore unknown areas of America: 30 jobs using
17.

$761,420 of federal cash in the fictional 15th congressional district in Arizona (there are only eight congressional
districts in Arizona); $19 million in spending and 15 jobs created in mythical districts in Oklahoma; $10.6 million on
39 jobs in invisible Iowan areas; $68.3 million spent in the magical 1st congressional district of the U.S. Virgin Islands; $35 million spent and 142 jobs created in the glittering fairy-tale kingdom of the 99th district of the Northern Mariana Islands; and the list goes on.
Apparently ,somebody messed with Joe.
The biggest problem, amazingly enough, isn’t the Obama administration’s incredible creation of districts from scratch. It’s the Obama administration’s use of stimulus funds to pay off its political allies.
On Sept. 11, 2009, Democrat congressman Eric Massa of the 29th Congressional District of New York—yes, this district actually exists—wrote President Obama a letter regarding the Obama administration’s $74.6 million grant to Canadaigua Power Partners, LLC, and Canandaigua Power Partners II, LLC, in Cohocton, N.Y. These companies, according to Massa, “act as shell companies that deceptively operate on behalf of First Wind, which is currently under investigation by New York State Attorney General Cuomo for corruption charges in Cohocton and across the Northeast.”
In fact, wrote Massa, “Constituents in our region see these projects as criminal actions … the award of $74.6 million to corrupt companies that have changed names time and again forming new LLCs and new Inc.s but maintaining their business model of lie, cheat and corrupt at the expense of taxpayers has stirred great unrest.” Remember, this is a Democratic congressman. First Wind is a green power company that produces windmills, the giant pieces of idiocy littering our landscapes. Its project in Cohocton, N.Y.—the project Massa rips—was so poorly done originally that residents reported that the turbines sounded like jet engines.
From March 31, 2007 to March 31, 2008, First Wind had revenue of $12 million and net losses of $73 million. Those losses forced First Wind to take out loans in the amount of $191 million. And up until October, the New York attorney general’s office was investigating First Wind for its possible participation in bribery of public officials for land use purposes. Broke and under investigation. Not exactly a great candidate for stimulus. But that didn’t stop the Obama administration. Why? Because First Wind is supported principally by Madison Dearborn Partners and the D.E. Shaw Group.
Madison Dearborn Partners, not coincidentally, is Obama Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel’s “best source of funds,” according to the Washington Examiner. During his congressional career, employees of Madison Dearborn gave Emanuel $93,600. And Emanuel is instrumental in oversight of the stimulus.
As for D.E. Shaw, White House economic adviser Lawrence Summers was paid $5.2 million in 2008 and 2007 by the company—to work for one day a week, according to the New York Times. Also according to the Times, “Summers said in an interview that his experience at Shaw, however brief, gave him valuable insight into the practical realities of Wall Street, insight he is now putting to use in shaping economic policy in the White House.”
The Obama administration is so dominated by obfuscatory aureate and magniloquent verbosity that it believes it can get away with literally anything. This administration creates dollars out of thin air to pay fictitious employees in figmental places. It’s no wonder that so far, the Obama administration has stimulated precisely nothing in the real world.

So Many Jobs, So Little Time Wednesday, November 18, 2009 By Rich Galen
To great fanfare a couple of weeks ago, the Obama Administration proudly ignored the unemployment rate spiking to 10.2 percent to announce they had created or saved exactly 640,329 jobs. So that each and every one of us can track exactly where those jobs were created or saved, the Obama spin machine created a website, Recovery.gov, which has as its slogan: "Track the Money." In France, their stimulus website is headed "Count de Monet" which is very funny, but only if you are a Mel Brooks fan.
The money, the Obama team would like us to be able to track amounts to precisely $158,705,328,811, which, if the calculator that came with Windows 7 is functioning properly, works out to $247,849.67 per job. A quarter of a million per job sounds a tad high to me, but maybe it's a generational thing.
ABC News actually went to the trouble of looking at some of the entries on the website and found an example about which reporter Jonathon Karl wrote: "In Arizona's 15th congressional district, 30 jobs have been saved or created with just $761,420 in federal stimulus spending." I did the calculation for you. It's $25,380.67 per job, but that will probably go up when those 30 people find out they're getting paid just 10 percent of the going rate. Except they won't. Why? Karl goes on to point out that, "There is no 15th congressional district in Arizona; the state has only eight districts." Oops! Don't you hate when that happens?
According to ABC, the communications director for the Recovery Board said, simply: "We report what the recipients submit to us. " Let's run that past the IRS and see if this has become a government-wide operating theory.
Similar errors were found for jobs created in non-existent districts in Oklahoma, Connecticut, and Iowa. You will be interested to learn that 142 jobs were created in the 99th congressional district of the Northern Mariana Islands.
As you might expect, a Member of Congress immediately leapt into the fray, saying the inaccuracies "are
18.
outrageous and the Administration owes itself, the Congress, and every American a commitment to work night and day
to correct the ludicrous mistakes."
Before you roll your eyes and whine about those dopey House Republicans jumping on the President while
he is over there in China doing whatever he is doing, I should point out that the statement came from Rep. David Obey (DEMOCRAT-Wis) who is the chairman of the House Appropriations Committee (which is always written as the powerful House Appropriations Committee and for good reason).
A few weeks ago, the New York Times reported that $1,047 in stimulus money was used to purchase a riding mower to "cut the grass at the Fayetteville (Arkansas) National Cemetery." I went to the Toro site and couldn't find a riding mower suitable for a home lawn for under $2,000 much less an industrial-strength mower such as one might buy for a cemetery, but that was not the point of the Times piece. This was: According to NY Times reporters Michael Cooper and Ron Nixon, the Recovery.gov website, "improbably claims that that single lawn mower sale helped save or create 50 jobs." They go on to write that "a spokesman for Toro said the 50-job figure was not accurate." I'm not sure how the spokesman would know that, but Toro is apparently paying closer attention to these data than the U.S. government.
The Washington Post, in a piece written for today's editions by Alec MacGillis, reminds us that from its earliest sales pitch, "the Obama administration framed the stimulus act as a job-creating initiative, saying that it would create or save 3.5 million jobs over the next two years." With the jobs "created or saved" numbers having such little credibility, reporters are jumping on the data like a five-year-old on a leaf pile.
From MacGillis' Wash Post piece: “The constant barrage of such stories may be taking a toll. In the new Washington Post-ABC News poll, 23 percent of respondents say they think the stimulus act has hurt the economy, and 39 percent say that it has made no difference." Only 37 percent think the stimulus package has helped (one percent had no opinion). Can't blame that on George W.

How I Saved or Created 4,730,400,003 Jobs Wednesday, November 18, 2009 By Ron Marr
I woke up this morning and stretched my aching limbs. You see, I’ve been running the chain saw quite a lot recently, bringing in the wood that will keep me from freezing during what promises to be a cold and wet Ozark winter.
I engage in this task not just for myself, and not just for the benefit of Boris, my blind and ancient Alaskan malamute. Hardly . . . I am imbued with a much greater purpose, an overwhelming sense of global obligation.
Despite the pain of stiff muscles, I was filled with a sense of joy. As I do every morning, I quickly punched in a few numbers on my official, wind-powered, Obama-brand, stimulus calculator. I realized that by the act of slicing up trees I had saved or created countless jobs.
What’s more, my trusty Husqvarna chain saw – named Dexter – had furthered this process due to his razor-sharp chain and 46cc engine. Such largesse, the boon to humanity that has come with embracing the mathematical equation for survival bestowed upon us by the anointed Obama (may his feet be clad in slippers of armadillo fur) made me smile. And yet, such was but the beginning of the warm glow of universal joy that permeated my loins. In the words of John Paul Jones, we had not yet begun to save or create jobs.
The estimated height of the average oak I lop is around fifty feet. In very approximate figures, that would put said oak at about thirty years of age. Now, according to the population division of the United Nations, the world experiences 216,000 births every day, or 78,840,000 births per year. This next part gets a little tricky – it was Barbie who once told us, “Math is hard” - but please try and stay with me. If we follow the philosophy of Obama that all living things share equally in the global community, and that we must care for Mother Earth in the same way we care for the smelly wino who lives in the oleander bushes behind Billy Ray’s Booze, Beer, Bait & Bullet Barn, then each tree in my forest was an active participant in bringing new life into this word.
According to the Messiah of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue (or Kenya . . . I always get those two confused) we are all working to redistribute wealth. This statement – if taken, as it must be, in the context of equitable action and reaction - would seem to infer that the burden of effort and responsibility is also shared equally when any wealth is accumulated. That said, if we accept that it takes two people to create a child, and that the act of creation could be classified as work (after all, one is supposed to love their work) then in thirty years that single tree has shared in the labor (so to speak) of 2,365,200,000 women.
Thus, when I cut that oak, and it came crashing to the ground with a quite satisfying smack, I was transforming its potential, “saved or created” employment energy into kinetic, “saved or created” employment energy. A job crisis? I think not. My contribution in felling that tree translates to jobs (labor) saved or created to the tune of the aforementioned 2.3 billion women. Since men and women in our present culture are deemed equal in all ways, we must double that figure. We must also add myself, Dexter the chainsaw, and the tree itself.
The resulting number, which I have forwarded to Washington, D.C., for public dissemination, clearly indicates that by buzzing up enough wood to keep me warm for a couple weeks, I alone have saved or created 4,730,400,003 jobs. Oh, and I cooked some bacon this morning too. I think we can throw in a few thousand jobs saved or created there. Also, by lying down on my bed, constructed by mattress builders, the roller coaster of saved or created jobs continues to spiral. Just a guess here, but merely by sleeping I saved or created at least a few hundred positions of gainful enterprise.
19.
I am more than proud. I am an American in the age of Obama. By doing nothing, or at least next to nothing, I am helping the people of the world and the planet itself. I am the change I’ve been waiting for. Boy . . . that’s a relief. I’m sure GMAC mortgage will take that into account when I’m late with the check this month. So, now that you know
The true meaning of jobs “saved or created,” please give the most exalted President Obama (may his name be praised by dung beetles and prairie dogs) a little bit of slack. Those figures that he tosses out with reckless abandon are not simply figments of his supremely glorious imagination (may it continue to thrive and prosper with Mickey, Goofy, Tinkerbelle, and all the other infidels who will suffer the hellfire of eternal damnation). I want you to be good little worker-bees, and accept the following figures as gospel.
Cherish Obama for creating thirty j obs costing $761,400 in Arizona’s fifteenth congressional district, even though the fifteenth congressional district doesn’t exist. Utter his name in hallowed whispers for spending $34 million dollars on Navajo Housing projects in that same state's incognito eighty-sixth congressional district, which was apparently smokin’ in the boy’s room when congressional districts were doled out.
Drop to your knees in gratitude for the fifteen jobs, costing $19 million dollars, in a few more non-existent districts in Oklahoma. Prostrate yourself in appreciation that our Commander in Cheat performed the same gesture in districts yet to be made manifest in Iowa. After all, that last one only cost $10.6 million, and saved or created thirty-nine imaginary jobs.
The lord high Obama forgets no one, particularly recalling all those people and places that aren’t real. Residents who were never born, located in invisible parts of Connecticut, the U.S. Virgin Islands, the Northern Mariana Islands, and Puerto Rico should send up offerings of song, libation, and imitation burnt offerings. In those locales, our feckless leader, and foremost bowing apologist, saved or created jobs by spending the collective sum of $233.1 million dollars.
Somewhere, in a hollow tree, the Keebler elves are baking cookies with renewed vigor and enthusiasm. They are secure that their jobs have been saved or created, can rest easy while relaxing in the company hot tub and enjoying a quick game of hoops in the government-supplied gymnasium. Unless, of course, it was their tree I cut down. In which case the entire theory of jobs “saved or created” just went up in smoke.

Obama’s Doubletalk on Political Dissent Wednesday, November 18, 2009 By Michelle Malkin
President Obama traveled all the way to China to praise the free flow of information. It’s the only safe place he could do so without getting heckled. With a straight face, Obama lauded political dissent and told Chinese students he welcomed unfettered criticism in America. Fierce opposition, he said, made him “a better leader because it forces me to hear opinions that I don’t want to hear.” How do you say “You lie!” in Mandarin? While the kowtower--in--chief’s press shop feeds paeans to free speech into Obama’s globetrotting teleprompter, the White House is still waging war on vocal foes at home.
Obama has lectured his critics in Washington to stop talking and “get out of the way.” He has stacked his carefully staged town halls with partisan stooges and campaign plants throughout the year. The president recently derided limited-government activists in the Tea Party movement with a vulgar sexual term used by left-wing cable host Anderson Cooper on CNN and the MSNBC smear merchants (just Google “teabagging” and you’ll see what they mean). There are now more muzzled watchdogs in the Obama administration than on the sidelines of the Westminster Kennel Club show.
Most recently, two EPA lawyers critical of the “fatally flawed” cap-and-trade system—peddled by their agency, the White House and the Democratic majority—were told by their superiors to yank a video they posted to You Tube explaining their views. Despite including a caveat that the opinions expressed were their own and not the agency’s, the couple faces possible disciplinary action by the feds. While demanding the video be yanked, the EPA disingenuously claims it tolerates all dissenting views of its employees. The clampdown follows on the heels of the Obama EPA’s stifling of veteran researcher Alan Carlin’s dissent. He dared to challenge the agency’s reliance on outdated data to support its greenhouse gas “public endangerment” finding. Carlin’s report was squelched; his office is now on the chopping block.
In China, O proclaimed himself “a big supporter of non-censorship.” But his FCC “diversity” czar, Mark Lloyd, is bent on re-engineering public airwaves by redistributing free speech rights from conservative haves who earned their success to minority have-nots who demand talk radio entitlements in the name of “media justice.”
And among Obama’s closest advisers is a husband-and-wife duo who specialize in marginalizing and stifling the Democratic Party’s most effective enemies. Just days after White House interim communications director Anita Dunn—the administration’s resident Mao cheerleader and Fox News-basher—stepped down to take a planned role as a “consultant” behind the scenes, her husband, Robert Bauer, stepped up and shoved aside White House counsel Greg Craig. The problem? Former Clinton lawyer Craig wasn’t tough enough for Chicago-on-the-Potomac. Obama needed an intimate ally who will put hardball politics ahead of policy and the law. Bauer fits the bill.
A partner at the prestigious law firm Perkins & Coie, Bauer served as counsel to the Democratic National Committee, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and Obama for America. He has served as Obama’s personal attorney, navigating the corrupted waters of former Democratic Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s pay-for-play scandals in Illinois. He also served as legal counsel to the George Soros-funded 527 organization America Coming Together during the 2004 campaign. 20.
That get-out-the-vote outfit, helmed by Patrick Gaspard (the former Service Employees International Union heavy turned Obama domestic policy chief), employed convicted felons as canvassers and committed campaign finance
violations that led to a $775,000 fine by the Federal Election Commission under Bauer’s watch.
During the 2008 campaign, Bauer pooh-poohed GOP complaints about voter fraud. While decrying the Republicans’ “fear message,” it was Bauer who was on a fear-inducing crusade—pulling out all legal stops to silence conservative critics of Obama’s ties to the radical left.
As I’ve noted previously, and in light of Obama’s self-serving praise for political dissent abroad, I note again: It was Bauer who lobbied the Justice Department unsuccessfully last fall to pursue a criminal probe of American Issues Project (AIP), an independent group that sought to run an ad spotlighting Obama’s ties to Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers.
It was Bauer and his legal goon squad who attempted to sic the DOJ on GOP donor Harold Simmons and sought his prosecution for funding the ad. In a parallel effort launched the same week as Bauer’s legal efforts, a nonprofit called “Accountable America,” spearheaded by a former operative of the Obama-endorsing MoveOn outfit, began trolling campaign finance databases and targeting conservative donors with “warning letters” in a thuggish attempt to depress Republican fundraising.
It was Bauer who tried to bully television stations across the country into pulling the spot. Team Obama then summoned their troops to bombard stations, many of them owned by conservative-leaning Sinclair Communications, with 93,000 e-mails to squelch the commercial. With Bob “The Silencer” Bauer now working from the inside and Anita “News Commissar” Dunn working from the outside, Obama has a state media police apparatus the Chinese regime itself could love.

Obama wins the Heisman Trophy after watching a college football game !!! His name was submitted for the award by George Soros just moments before Obama actually watched part of a game on television aboard Air Force One. Obama learned about the Heisman while travelling to accept an Academy Award for his appearances in post-election campaign ads.
Obama said: "I will accept the Heisman trophy in the name of all the minority players who are being denied the opportunity to play college football simply because of their grades, lack of ability or incarceration ".
The White House also announced today that Obama has reluctantly been persuaded by his staff and the ACLU to present himself with the Presidential Medal Of Freedom for the outstanding deeds he hopes to accomplish sometime in the future. A decision on his Congressional Medal of Honor has been temporarily sidetracked because of minor technical issues concerning eligibility.
In the meantime, decisions on the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, as well as the economy, have been delayed indefinitely due to the president's busy schedule of public appearances. When asked what involvement he will have in the healthcare bill named in his honor, Obama replied: I will probably vote "Present".

Teachers & Cops
Part One: Teachers These are actual comments made on students' report cards by teachers in the New York City public school system. All teachers were reprimanded (but, boy, are these funny!)
1. Since my last report, your child has reached rock bottom and has started to dig. 2. I would not allow this student to breed. 3. Your child has delusions of adequacy.. 4. Your son is depriving a village somewhere of an idiot. 5.. Your son sets low personal standards and then consistently fails to achieve them. 6. The student has a 'full six-pack' but lacks the plastic thing to hold it all together. 7. This child has been working with glue too much.. 8.. When your daughter's IQ reaches 50, she should sell. 9. The gates are down, the lights are flashing, but the train isn't coming. 10. If this student were any more stupid, he'd have to be watered twice a week. 11.. It's impossible to believe the sperm that created this child beat out 1,000,000 others. 12. The wheel is turning but the hamster is definitely dead.
Part 2 cops: These are actual comments made by 16 Police Officers (inreverse order of hilarity, i.e., the best is last.) The comments were taken off actual police car videos around the country: 16 'You know, stop lights don't come any redder than the one you just went through.' 15 'Relax, the handcuffs are tight because they're new. They'll stretch after you wear them a while.' 14 'If you take your hands off the car, I'll make your birth certificate a worthless document.' 13 'If you run, you'll only go to jail tired.' 12 Can you run faster than 1200 feet per second? Because that's the speed of the bullet that'll be chasing you.' 11 'You don't know how fast you were going? I guess that means I can write anything I want to on the ticket, huh?' 10 'Yes, sir, you can talk to the shift supervisor, but I don't think it will help. Oh, did I mention that I'm the shift supervisor?' 9 'Warning! You want a warning? O.K, I'm warning you not to
do that again or I'll give you another ticket. '8 'The answer to this last question will determine whether you are drunk or not. Was Mickey Mouse a cat or a dog?' 7 'Fair? You want me to be fair? Listen, fair is a place where you go to ride on rides, eat cotton candy and corn dogs and step in monkey poop.' 6 'Yeah, we have a quota.. Two more tickets and my wife gets a toaster oven.' 5 'In God we trust, all others we run through NCIC.' 4 'How big were those 'two beers' you say you had?' 3 'No sir, we don't have quotas anymore. We used to, but now we're allowed to write as
21.
many tickets as we can. '2 'I'm glad to hear that the Chief (of Police) is a personal friend of yours. So you someone who can post your bail.' AND THE WINNER IS.... 1 'You didn't think we give pretty women tickets? You're
right, we don't. Sign here.'
From the Inane to the Insane
Posted by Rep. Vito Fosella (Profile) Monday, November 30th at 10:28AM EST
Every year the New York Police and Fire Departments face off in an annual football game. The good-natured but intense contest has been a New York City tradition since 1973.
In 2004, members of both squads visited the Oval Office to present President George W. Bush with a token of appreciation for his response following the attacks of September 11, 2001. The meeting had special meaning since among the many casualties of 9-11 were 22 members of the New York City Fire Department Football Club. (See bravest football.com and nypdfootball.com). Originally, President Bush was asked to attend the annual game to receive the players’ thanks, but he was unable to do so, so I arranged the visit to the White House for the players.
The meeting was scheduled to last about ten minutes. At the president’s insistence, it lasted longer, in part so he could show the players another recent gift–something he was obviously proud to share with them. You see, that morning, the warriors who captured Saddam Hussein visited the President and gave him a glass-enclosed gun, the gun Hussein had on him when they dragged him from his rat hole.
The President picked up the box with the gun and showed it to the players. The President turned the box over and showed the signatures of the soldiers, who were involved in the capture, saying what a “great group” they were. Clearly, he was proud that our American GIs had captured a brutal tyrant, who took the lives of many. Our brave troops captured a terrorist, and our Commander-in-Chief honored their valor and service.
Now, less than six years later, let’s look at what has changed.
Just a few days ago, the “big news” was an inane circus starring two people who crashed a White House State Dinner. The stories, the photos, the calls for investigations, more funding, firings, in other words, the typical madness will all follow. Of course, few will thank publicly the men and women of the Secret Service, who keep so many so safe for so long.
While most of the major news outlets seemed totally taken with the gate crashers, few Americans were made aware of a mockery of justice that became public that same week, namely the prosecution of three brave Navy SEALS who face ruin for, among all things, capturing a terrorist who brutally killed, maimed, defiled and hanged four American citizens in Fallujah, Iraq in 2004.
Matthew McCabe, Jonathan Keefe and Julio Huertas are among the best-trained men in the world. Recently, these dedicated sailors captured Ahmed Hashim Abed, who masterminded and, according to reports, was responsible for the brutal Fallujah murders. Like the soldiers who captured Hussein, you would think they would be honored for their valor and service. You would think a grateful nation would recognize their achievement with a proclamation or commendation—maybe even an invite to the oval office. Instead of receiving any such thing, they are facing a court-martial. Instead of being honored by our nation and its leaders, they are being persecuted and prosecuted for nonsense.
Their offense? According to published reports, one of the SEALS allegedly punched the suspected terrorist. Hmmm. Now what?
Our government now trips over itself to apologize, to ignore history, to coddle tyrants and terrorists, to provide propaganda platforms to wretched individuals, who are our enemies and to punish brave men and women in our military who deserve praise, not prosecution. We move to court-martial three United States Navy SEALS, while we insult the memory of the victims of 9-11 with a show trial for Khalid Sheik Mohammed and his mosaic of maniacs just blocks from the most vicious attack on American soil.
Time, events and sometimes, elections, serve to highlight the distinctions between significance and insignificance, praise and prosecution, political power and political correctness, and pandering and patriotism.
So here we are, transfixed on a couple stealing some punch and taking photos at the White House, and watch the wheels of government turn and heads roll, while three families, the McCabes’, Keefes’ and Huertas’ must be asking themselves, “What did we do to deserve this?
Clearly, from the inane to the insane.
-- -- -- -- -- - -- -- -- -- --
You betcha! This is the kind of BS our government has come to be. These guys should have never been charged to start with. However, why not give them the same rights that our enemies have been given. Yea, federal court! If they haven’t been read their rights (Miranda) the court can and will just set them free and that is the end of it. I mean, these guys who planned and made so the deaths of thousands of innocents are not even citizens of the US. They were practicing WAR on the people of the US. How so do they deserve the consideration we give to our own criminals???? These people are Wolves! What is wrong with letting our Sheepdogs chew on them a bit??? These wolves are guilty of war crimes. Explain the wrong they did to them and then kill them quickly and mercifully and be done with it. Meanwhile TURN OUR SHEEPDOGS LOOSE! Anything else is treasonous. (One ticked off editor has spoken)
-- -- -- -- -- - -- -- -- -- --
We hope you all had a very merry Christmas day. Full of fun, laughter and love. That is the meaning of Christmas and what our dear savior whose birthday we celebrate wished for us always. Sheepdogs be on the alert for the wolves howl.
22.
May your new year continue the joy and happiness of this day. I love you too. Thank you for your patience with me.

The Oama files ----The Movement
On July 2nd, 2008, Obama spoke in Colorado Springs and hit themes of national service, foreign policy, and national security. In that vein, Obama proposed a rather extraordinary idea -- that the US should spend as much money on a civilian national security force as it does on the military. "We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded." Well, I have a flash for you, since 1993, he's been organizing the cadre of his personal, civilian national security force -- his "shadow army" -- at fifteen fully-staffed and populated indoctrination centers.
Public Allies, modeled after Alinsky's "people’s organizations," is operating under the watchful eye of Michelle Obama and it has a ton of money -- more than $75 million per year -- and an impressive list of donors. Naturally, it also receives grants from federal, state and municipal sources. Its mission has been, and is, to produce "community organizers" -- baby Obamas -- and its process is replicable and repeatable -- continually producing more apparatchiks in "the community," where these people are perceived of as leaders. They answer to only one person -- Obama. During the campaign, Obama also ran, at the state level, a "national program for social change," called "Camp Obama The Obama Campaign's website promised that "you'll get the kind of experience that Barack got as a community organizer on the South Side of Chicago," and "Camp Obama is your chance to step up and become a leader in 'this movement'."
These community organizers have constituencies that can be mobilized, at the touch of a button, into political actions -- mobs in the streets -- to influence public opinion and the political process -- real visual stuff that Obama's water-carriers in the media will broadcast 24/7. In addition to these shock troops, Obama has a reserve of 13 million-plus in his personal database that he is actively expanding. This pool of Internet-savvy people can be used to promote or attack any issue. Obama can direct tens of thousands of emotional emails, phone calls and letters on any target.
Remember, in September, when Chicago radio station WGN-AM twice came under attack from the Obama Campaign for offering airtime to an author who was politically opposed to Obama. As the result of an "Obama Action Wire" alert to supporters, the Tribune-owned station was flooded with phone calls and e-mails about an hour before an Aug. 27 interview with Stanley Kurtz, a conservative writer who examined Obama’s ties to former 1960's radical William Ayers. The phone calls effectively shut the station down. This Svengali recently released this video, in which he calls for MORE "volunteers" to help him "change America" -- and he makes it sound like a noble cause. In the video, at the end, he even places "The Movement" before "our country" -- the United States of America."
Never before has such a massive, organized political action force -- independent from the federal government --existed. Obama sardonically calls it, "Organizing for America."
On January 23rd, 2009 -- three days after the inauguration -- a little-publicized Department of Defense Directive (Number 1404.10) authorizes the mission and funding of hundreds of thousand foot-soldiers to fill the ranks of "The Movement. established a "DOD Civilian Expeditionary Workforce. I just wonder if members of "The Movement," whose primary allegiance is to Obama, will have special uniforms? If so, what color will their shirts be?

IS THIS NOT SCARY?
On the next page please find a picture taken from the Chicago Tribune 4-21-1934 just over a month before I was born. It was during the depression. My mother and father had just met each other. Welfare was just started and was to become the bloated travesty we have today. This was exactly what was going on and this is an editorial piece. Does it look familiar? You bet it does! History has the habit of repeating itself. Especially when nobody pays attention. Will they succeed this time? It is up to the people who are supposed to be the boss. Are we going to let them do it this time? Or do we fight it with all we got? Your grandparents and or great grandparents bit the bullet. In my case my parents. Do we? In less than 10 years we were in WW2. We were just getting out of the depression by then. My father was to ride the rails in 1938 to California in a fruitless try for a job. Again in 1940 he made the terribly dangerous trip and this time was successful. The depression was over pretty much. When he worked in Kansas before and after my birth, he worked from can to can’t see 6 days a week for $30 a month. That is when he could find work. On this he clothed and fed himself, a wife and 2 kids. He rented a house, furnished it and heated it. He walked miles to work sometimes. Just check this cartoon out . Scary! Just exactly what is going on today. Examine everything well. The only difference I see between it and today is a few names and probably you could substitute a Muslim teacher for Stalin.
