Repeal AND Replace


Democrat Chris Van Hollen, speaking with Neil Cavuto today, said that the Democrats were quite happy to have the repeal discussion in November. Why? Because they contend that would show Republicans as wanting to take away the benefits of their plan and reaffirm support for insurance company abuses. Of course, this is the usual Democrat spin and untruthfulness that we have become accustomed to. Although I doubt most Americans would buy that line of thinking, I think it’s so important to repeal this horrid bill, that no chances can be taken. I propose that the narrative, from now until the reversal actually takes place, be one of repeal and replace. Republicans and conservatives pledge to repeal the current monstrosity and replace it with smaller, less expensive, less government intrusion, common sense fixes and solutions that actually help Americans, not hurt them. It’s important for Republicans to be seen as problem solvers, not just as the one who repeal Obamacare. This would deny the Democrats another talking point critical of Republicans. One that they would surely repeat ad nauseum, until the propaganda began to take hold within the public mind. Please help me spread the message : it’s repeal AND replace, from this day forward!


Slaughter: Prevention


I’ve been voraciously reading everything I can get a hold of in regards to the House of Representatives “Slaughter Strategy” on passing Obamacare. I’m not a Constitutional lawyer, but the “Slaughter Strategy” certainly seems unconstitutional, not to mention does not pass the smell test. As has been noted in other RS diaries, Mark Levin, a Constitutional lawyer of 30 years, has said his research has failed to find a single instance of a bill having been “deemed” passed, without the actual “yea’s” and “nay’s” being recorded alongside each members name in the log, as required by the Constitution. This kind of sedition cannot be allowed.

The Founding Fathers, our military, and countless others, did not make ultimate sacrifices, so that we could arrive at this point in time preparing to destroy all that they have achieved. Government has become far too powerful, and we were warned about this by these wise and courageous men. Should Obamacare pass via this method, it brings us back to a time of kings, emperors and dictators, decreeing laws with no say of the masses.

The Congress could “deem” us at war with another nation, with no vote.

They could “deem” all the land is owned by Government, taking yours from you, with no vote. (This is already happening, eminent domain in Kelo v. New London)

They could “deem” firearms unsafe for the public, with no vote.

They could “deem” what is unhealthy to eat or drink, outlawing it, with no vote. (This has already started, with the salt in New York example)

They could “deem” what kind of car you are allowed to drive and how far, before you must pay extra for consuming too much energy resourses, with no vote.

They could “deem” at what temperature your house thermostat must be set, regulated by computer from afar, with no vote.

Obviously, there are many more examples of Government intrusion into our lives, that is made even more possible by this circumvention of the Constitution.

Now, with Healthcare, you will be required, by a law they “deemed” passed, to purchase a commodity simply due to the fact that you were born!

My fellow Americans: We cannot allow this subversion of the Constitution, the supreme law of the land, to gain any validity whatsoever, even as only a possible procedure, lest we take one giant step closer to anarchy. I believe the best way to prevent this from happening, is to destroy the idea before it has a chance to actually happen. In the next week, we need to shout down this seditious thinking, exposing it for what it is, for all Americans to see. This subject should dominate the airwaves of radio, TV and the internet, saturating the populace with information that they dare not ignore. Only the disinfectant of sunlight can expose and destroy this evil in our midst.

Please join me in taking the time this week to tell your family, friends, politicians, media and anyone who will listen, about the danger that is fast approaching us. Our beloved American freedom is at stake and we must act NOW if we are to save it!

My Take on Sarah Palin


She's One of Us

I’d like to discuss my views on what Sarah Palin means to me and what she could mean to the country. I hope my words contribute to the fine discussions on this site.

Since Sarah Palin has been announced as John McCain’s running mate, I’ve been absorbing as much information on her as possible. Her meteoric rise from PTA to city council to mayor to Governor and now, VP candidate, is an incredibly compelling story in and of itself. Add in her incredible successes in performance of these jobs and we arrive at the conclusion that we have a true political phenom in our corner. Let me speak to these successes for just a moment.
It is remarkable that someone could insert themselves into modern day politics with no inherent built in advantage of money or name. Not only did she accomplish this, but she also defeated the incumbent Governor, who was heavily entrenched with name, money, existing infrastructure and a “good ol’ boys” network to back him up. A truly remarkable victory worthy of admiration. Upon taking office she immediately set out to do the work of the people. You’ve all heard this previously: balancing the budget, cutting out 500+ million of wasteful spending, selling the private jet, killing the Bridge to Nowhere, cleaning up corruption, encouraging competition and making a loud statement of anti-establishment, letting Alaskans know she was “one of us” who was working hard for them.
