An Award-Winning Performance!

I would like to nominate NY Congressman Anthony Weiner for an Emmy award for the most over dramatized, insincere public outburst by a public official. If Mr. Weiner and the DEM’s really felt that this bill (the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act) was soooo important they would have done everything to make it easy for the GOP to vote for it. But they didn’t. Where is the trade off? Where is something that you are willing to give up to get this?

Congressman, you are a phony. Your theatrics only fools the simple, like people in the media. The rest of us can see right through it.

“And the winner is......”, not the American people. Again.

Time to fish or cut bait, Mr. Obama

News Alert: Judge blocks the most controversial sections of Arizona's immigration law from taking effect
01:15 PM EDT Wednesday, July 28, 2010
--------------------

PHOENIX -- A judge has blocked the most controversial sections of Arizona's new immigration law from taking effect Thursday, handing a major legal victory to opponents of the crackdown.

The law will still take effect Thursday, but without many of the provisions that angered opponents - including sections that required officers to check a person's immigration status while enforcing other laws. The judge also put on hold a part of the law that required immigrants to carry their papers at all times, and made it illegal for undocumented workers to solicit employment in public places.

With the blocking of this section of Arizona's law the entire responsibility fail to the Federal Government (it was there already, they just weren't doing it.).

In light of Article IV, section 4 of the Constitution of the United States of America, if the federal government a.k.a. the President doesn't protect Arizona from foreign invasion than he is guilty of violating his oath of office and therefore should be impeached and removed from office.

I don't expect this will happen but it should.

Mr. Obama, If you don't want to or are afraid to do the job you swore to do, then quit. We will understand.

(In case the N.S.A. gets this. Just to make sure you know -This is not a threat to any one, just a frustrated American.)

How To Deal With Fools

Two of the most difficult passages of scripture to figure out are Proverbs 26: 4 and 5. It takes a wise man to know when to apply the one and not the other. This is especially true when it comes to political discourse.

Political Marathoners Wanted!

Here’s something to think about. Many have called this election the most important election in our life time. The tea parties are going strong. Politicians are afraid. People are getting involved. You may have walked petitions for yourself and others. You feel energized.

What if things don’t go as well as we hope this year? What if the bottom drops out? What if your petition is rejected by the board of elections? What if your candidate doesn’t win? What if we don’t even take back one house in either the state house or Congress?

I don’t expect these all to happen, but you never know. I think we need to look at what we are doing as a process and not an event. Some people might say that if we don’t taken control of a county party or even any town party in this election that we have failed. They will be wrong! I want to refocus everyone’s attention to what the task really is and how it will probably go.

I expect that this year we will gain some positions on our town boards. This will not give us much power. We may not be informed as to when the meetings will take place. We may not be looked at as good soldiers but this is O.K. We will have a foothold. In 2 years we will understand what we have to do better and will get more people on boards. We may even be able to elect a chairman in a few towns. In 2 more years we will have more people on the committees and will be in position to fight for seats on the executive committee and maybe even the Chairmanship itself. If not, we make ourselves stronger for the election in 2016.

This is a struggle for the long haul, a marathon not a sprint. I don’t want to see people become discouraged by what doesn’t go our way. When quitters may say, ”What’s the use?” When the impatient say, “See, we told you it wouldn’t work. You should have done it our way.” Our goal is to reclaim our republic and state. We didn’t lose it over night. We will not reclaim it over night But if we do not lose sight of our goal, if we do not become discouraged and quit, we will come out of this having claimed the prize that we seek - A Republic that looks a lot like the one our founding fathers had hoped for

Google Adsense

I have a complaint about Google Adsense. This maybe the only way to Contact Google. There is not way to get help from Google. I was unable to remove my account from an old webpage because I pulled the page. Now because I didn't do that( or something?) right, my Adsense account has been deactivated.

If anyone from Google looks at this, maybe you can help me.

Notes to politcians and nitwits who need help!

Last week I got an e-mail about the Erie County Conservative party acting like the Erie County Conservative party always acts - spineless, deceitful, and cowardly. Why is anyone surprised? A couple of points about this.

1. Calling for the chairman of a party to be removed from that party when you don’t belong to and you have no control over it is useless. If it’s that important join that party.

2. Dealing with them or not dealing with them will not affect the way that they do business.

3. Here is a word of wisdom for those who call others “arrogant” - candidates need these parties, these parties don’t need these candidates. This leads to something that “Tea Party” groups need to understand, until you have something that the parties want and can control it they will do what they want. What is that something? Money or power (control over a strong voting block). With out these we will just be on the outside holding witty signs but always on the outside.

On point 3, groups like Primary Challenge or Tea New York have began to gain that necessary power. That doesn’t mean the we have arrived but the work so many did to organize across the state and to get the 28,000 signatures to get Carl Paladino on the ballot shows that these groups have some power. Lenny, Rus, and sooo many others are to be commended. I‘m proud to be a part of these groups. Now we must use this power. Let people know that we were the ones that got this done, against the odds.

(I’m almost embarrassed to include myself since I didn’t do as much as others, but I did do a lot of the preparation - making videos, putting them on disks, getting walking lists ready, getting some signatures( a few sheets),... Maybe I did more than I thought?)

I only hope that we don’t squander this on infighting and quests for personal glory.

Note to nitwits who may read this - This is how to get things done!

Primary Challenge WIN!!!

This is to congratulate those who have worked so hard to collect signatures for Carl Paladino. Earlier, I think last week, someone (Alan Bedenko) from WNY media network seemed to think that Carl would not have enough signatures to get on the ballot. He called it a Primary Challenge FAIL. Now having collected 28,000 signatures, almost twice the number necessary to get on, I wonder if he will concede that it is a win for P. C.?

Also to all those who have doubted Primary Challenge, will you concede that it is becoming a formidable organization. I know it is not there yet but it is becoming one.

I am glad to be just a small part, a very small part of it but still a part.

Savings for the cash strapped.

With so many States, Counties, and Cities across this country having problems with being cash strapped, maybe they should realize that they are spending too much. And when they cut, they should not look at the usual suspects, the services that people need, but they should look at the over-inflated bureaucracy, with its over-compensated patronage jobs! If they start there they might be surprised how much money they could save.
