I'm Calling Out Michelle Bachmann

In the last two Republican presidential debates Michelle Bachmann has declared that a State has no authority to require it's citizens to purchase a good, i.e. healthcare as in Massachusetts.  She is absolutely wrong and it is quite frankly embarrassing that as a lawyer she does not know our constitutional framework of government while passing herself off as a guardian of the Constitution and the "Tea Party" candidate.

 

The Federal Constitution is a limited framework of…

TU: Library lovers protest proposal to reduce the system’s budget

People need to show up in force and support the cuts being made to the library.  They have used scare tactics for their cuts which could have easily been made across the whole system without harming services by very much at all.  The cuts have to be made or taxes will be raised again this year since all of the groups facing cuts will lobby and next year, they will increase their budgets again and taxes will go up yet again.  They are a disease that requires feeding annually, and…

RESPECT - We got a little bit, Baby!

Last night CNN hosted the first ever Tea Party debate with Tea Party Express and more than 150 tea party groups across the country.

 

It was a historic night and the Tea Party Movement was given the respect it deserves.  The staff at CNN did an excellent job!  The people behind the scenes who help those in front of the screens were professional, supportive and patriotic.  Those in front of the screen were too and…

TU: Mayor's proposed budget calls for ending overnight camping at Huguenot Park

This is chump change compared to the cuts that need to be made.  Have you sent an Email to your city council person, called them, gone to city hall to speak to them or written a letter and mailed it. This is VERY important.  Serious cuts must be made in this year's budget.  Richard Clark has been leading the way in the finance committee and I am proud of him for keeping his word to the…

TU: Jacksonville City Council, Mayor Brown tussle over budgeting vs. reorganization

Have you sent an Email to your city council person, called them, gone to city hall to speak to them or written a letter and mailed it.  This is VERY important.  If the cuts do not take place, not only will we be stuck with the huge garbage fee increase, the council will raise property taxes yet again!  No business is going to move into a city that raises taxes and fees every single…

9/12: The Day After

 

Yesterday we watched America mourn.  The memorials were beautiful.  The dedications were moving.  The stories were tear jerkers.  The photos were stunning.  The pride of being an American was revived.  It was okay to fly your flag.  It was okay to salute a soldier. …

9/11: Never again.

Ten years ago on a beautiful Tuesday morning, America awoke to a beautiful day.  Nearly 3,000 citizens were scurrying to work; kissing their loved ones good-bye; running for the train; and dropping their children off at school.  Pilots were readying planes for a trip and passengers were standing in line to board.  Standing in the line with the other passengers were men with evil in their hearts.

Conservative Byte: College demands 9-11 tribute include flags from other countries – or face cancellation

These liberal colleges should have their wings clipped.  This clearly is unconstitutional, and although I don't have proof, it smells of the same handiwork of the white house forced on all 9/11 memorials!  They don't want patriotic (or anything religious)  which is clearly what these young people planned!

Patriot Update: Senate quietly approves $500B increase in borrowing authority

I feel ill over this since we just increased the debt ceiling by over 2 trillion.................where did that money go or has Obama already whistled through that too????

 

September 10, 2011

The action came under an unusual legislative procedure spelled out under the August agreement to raise the U.S. debt ceiling and avoid a U.S. credit default. In a 52-45 vote, the Senate blocked an attempt by Republicans to slow down the process that will result in the $500 billion…

Front Porch Politics: Obama’s Gaff Went Unnoticed!

I think many of us noticed what he said but considered the source of the comments as well.  Obama is totally clueless and apparently thinks it is ok for him to violate his oath to office.  He is also wrong about social security, because many will suffer damage that can't be repaired when the system is disbanded or changed and any coverage they paid for or might have had will disappear.  So it would have been better to leave people responsible for themselves instead of creating…

Patriot Update: Islamic Attacks and Threats During Obama’s Presidency

I assume if we have another attack tomorrow, Mr. Obama will tell us we shouldn't rush to make a judgement again?????

 

Written on September 10, 2011 by Ann-Marie Murrell

Last year Obama made a statement during a 9/11 event in which he said “as Americans we are not — and never will be — at war with Islam.”

Maybe the president needs to remind Islam about this because they certainly don’t seem to know.

Since taking office, the U.S.…

Huffington: 9/11 Anniversary Terror Threat: At Least 2 Suspects In Possible Attack May Be U.S. Citizens, Say Officials

A fairly liberal media source, but lots of info on this possible attack.  We all need to be very vigilent on 9/11 since we really have no idea what is going to happen or even if the feds know of every attempt that is planned.  Be safe everyone and be careful!

 

WASHINGTON — Al-Qaida may have sent American terrorists or men carrying U.S. travel documents to launch an attack on Washington or New York to coincide with memorials…

Yahoo: White House floods reporters’ inboxes after Obama’s jobs speech

Is the White House DELIBERATELY trying to turn reporters against them?   It seems they think sending each reporter 50 emails bragging about Ovomit's speech and his jobs bill will  convince them he is truly great; however, one wonders how delighted these reporters are having what are probably already full email addys loaded down with repeated back stroking by the white house.

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??

If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets.  It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists. 

You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
