The real battle now begins

June 4, 2008

To this point Obama has survived largely on the votes of young democrats that believe a politician when he talks about hope and change even if his true beliefs reflect neither.  That was fine for the primaries but how will Obama transform himself into a candidate that can win in November?  If you read most polls less than 30% of Hillary’s supporters would vote for Obama in November, how does he change that?  He must articulate similar positions that Hillary did, the problem is that by doing that he must abandon the hope and change mantra and thus alienate the young voters that got him where he is.

He has really painted himself into a corner because he can’t win in November without a greater share of Hillary supporters, he can’t get those without alienating at least an equal number of the young college types, and he will find it impossible to get conservatives to support him.  Most seniors seem to have supported Hillary, they vote more reliably than the young impressionable skulls full of mush that seemingly made Obama the nominee.  For Obama to win would mean that McCain will absolutely have to implode, not a far fetched possibility given his history, or democrat voters will have to fall for the greatest job of slick marketing and packaging in American History.

Obama is going to have to debate McCain at some point, and that is not what he is good at.  He’s good at prepared speeches, making young college girls faint (a trait even Bill Clinton didn’t possess), but he’s not shown that he can think on his feet or discuss foreign policy issues at a 10th grade level.  Ok given the state of education in this country perhaps he could have that discussion at a 10th grade level, but the point is the guy can speak, outside of that he’s not that intelligent.

It is my belief that most American’s will see Obama for what he really is, the 2nd coming of Jimmy Carter, if not we’re in for Jimmy Carter’s 2nd four years…

McCain Throws Election With More Anti-Right’s Demands!

May 18, 2008

On more than just shaky ground with all Americans already, Juan McCain has just thrown the election by coming right out and saying that he would sign illegal legislation to end all private sales of firearms at gunshows which is the precursor to ending all private sales. Ask Gore what single issue destroyed any chance he had of winning the presidency and he’ll tell you it was his anti-right’s positions. ( He might refer to it by a disloyal name. )

Senator McCain! The ONLY time criminals are stopped in their tracks is when the law abiding are armed…there is no other effective way nor will there ever be.

Write, Call and Fax McCain to publicly denounce his own ludicrous assumptions or we will be suffering Barack “Ban all semi-autos” Obama.

McCain Courts NRA, Makes Gun Shop Visit  by Glen Johnson  http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory?id=4871443

“… McCain said the only gun controls he favors are limits to keep guns from people with criminal backgrounds or indications of mental problems.

He added that, as president, he would sign a law that prohibited individuals from buying guns at a gun show without going through the same checks as those buying guns at regular stores.”

What McCain thick-headedly and obviously still doesn’t understand even after twenty plus years with the evidence available to him at his beck and call is that the evil and insane buy guns much more cheaply from other criminals or just outright steals them for themselves. It is therefore irrelevant whether they buy them ‘legally’ or not for just the purchase of the firearm for the purpose to use in any criminal act is also and already illegal.

NO ILLEGAL LAW against law abiding citizens will ever stop criminals from getting their hands on guns or any other tool to commit their crimes. This fact in life can not be prodded or otherwise coerced by the despicably frightened and cowering towards making themselves ‘feel’ better.

Therefore, one more illegal law on top of the some 20,000 already on the books is just more infringement on the law abiding making it more difficult or impossible to have in their own defense when they need it. Those who have and would still pass any such illegal legislation is just as guilty of any and all violent crimes committed on the innocent inwhich the innocent would have otherwise provided for their own defense and therein the chance to survive. 

 The Final Word On Our Inalienable Right of Self Defense and The Second Amendment Right To Bear Arms;

When a law enforcement firearms instructor and his instructors tell you that the most important thing you can do in your entire life is to protect the Second Amendment then you better stop worrying about what anyone else thinks or says and protect it as if your freedom depends on it, because it certainly does….consider yourself so informed.

“[T]he Second Amendment protects an individual right to keep and bear arms. That right existed prior to the formation of the new government under the Constitution and was premised on the private use of arms for activities such as hunting and self-defense, the latter being understood as resistance to either private lawlessness or the depredations of a tyrannical government (or a threat from abroad).” -Parker V. DC,  Senior Justice Silberman

McCain Streaking Conservatism?

April 15, 2008

Are You Sitting Down?

The same man who drew up the Shamnesty bill behind closed doors, the same man who thinks the Second Amendment doesn’t mean what it says, the same man who STILL believes the incumbent protection attachment he sponsored with the soft money limitation bill ( McCain-Feingold ) doesn’t adversely affect our First Amendment speech 60 days prior to an election, the same man who wants to close Gitmo giving terrorists the same rights that citizens have ( All right, I could keep going on like this for quite awhile but, you get the idea. ) has actually adopted Fred Thompson’s optional “Flat” tax plan!

No, I didn’t dare hope he had that much common sense either, I just kept the thought tucked away in the pin-head-sized liberal area of my brain that I never use anyway.

When Fred Thompson offered his optional Flat tax plan ( when page opens click on the words ‘Fair vs. Flat’ and video clip will start ) the main stream media hardly breathed a word of it as they fearfully knew conservative policies that work would certainly unite the entire republican base…well, their tactics of spin and nonreporting worked but, his principles, values, plans and policies could very well live on if this streak of conservatism lasts a little while longer in McCain to get out of this huge mess we’re in.

 Of course, lets hope McCain isn’t merely streaking us a flash of conservatism to get us to watch him just long enough to take the oath.
