The Crisis of the Crisis
The Crisis of the Crisis
How Good Is Your Memory?
Doesn't it seem like there is always SOME type of Crisis that we need to deal with. Or should I say that the government will have to deal with. Some of the ways government remains and gains power is by presenting fear to the general population. Fear about something that ONLY the government will be able to handle in the proper way. This will be the first in a series of articles about Crisis.
THE TRUTH THAT WILL SET YOU FREE!
It IS ALL about the power. There is no such thing as coincidence. Very FEW will step in front of another to stop a bullet.
Those who drink from the grapes of power have trouble saying NO to one more glass of wine. You have freedom as long as you do what the government says you should do. Is that the freedom our founding fathers envisioned?
Government gains more power and is questioned less when fear and safety is brought into the picture. Once people have tasted power, they don't want to give up that taste. After tasting the grapes of power for too long, people start believing that it is THEIR right to continue to taste that wine. Not their honor, their right. When they get to that mindset, their actions are more about keeping themselves in power then doing what is best and right for the people.
I will deal with many crisis but the first one, let it be the so called War On Terror! What has that war brought to this country? I guess I could say thank goodness we invaded Iraq, can you image how high gas prices would have been by now if we had stayed in our own country?
What the war on terror has brought us. We have to wear socks now that are clean and no holes if we are going to fly. We don't actually have to, but it could be embarrassing. Depending on the mood of the people in charge we may or may not be able to take shampoo, toothpaste, nail cllppers etc. with us on our flight.
The War on Terror have gotten a great word ,PATRIOT, hijacked by congress in passing laws that take our rights away. By calling it the Patriot Act they attempt to make it so that anyone that would oppose it would BE, UNPATRIOTIC. A good way to keep people in check and quite.
As soon as this act or parts of it are due to expire, then we hear how much MORE in danger we will be if it isn't renewed. But in truth what is in more danger is OUR rights as AMERICANS. The very people who would and who have killed our people. The very people who would take our freedoms away from us have had to do nothing more then fly the planes into the buildings. Our elected representatives have done the rest as far as taking some of our rights and freedoms away from us.
If Bin Laden was so important in this War of Terror, then why did we not continue with him until we found him? Could it be because he would be more valuable to the people in power alive and free then dead or captured? Why go into Iraq before the job with Bin Laden was finished? Wouldn't there have been time after that job was finished to then go after Iraq?
Do you remember why we went into Iraq? Weapons of Mass Destruction. WMD's. Now after none were found I REMEMBER the people in power saying there were more reasons then JUST WMD's for going into Iraq. The trouble with that is that I ALSO REMEMBER Colin Powell going to the United Nations outlining the reason for going into Iraq. WMD's was the reason. Once they didn't find WMD's they changed their story or reasons. The ONLY problem with that is that I REMEMBER Powell's talk at the United Nations. Some of this stuff would be so much easier to believe if my memory wasn't so good.
So once no WMD's were found and Saddam was pulled out of the Rat Hole I had a simple solution to the problem. Put him back in power. Don't you think he would have played ball with us? Let HIM get his country back into control and remember we dug you out of a rat hole, we can do it again. But no that would have been too simple. Instead it was very important to make sure he was dead. What was such the rush? As far as that goes what was such the rush of killing the Oklahoma City Bomber? Both people still had much information, so why such the rush to close the lips of that information? Remember there are no coincidences.
The war on terror has been a very high cost of blood and treasure. The dems like to use that wording a lot. But billions and billions of dollars have been sent to a country we invaded. Thousands of our young people have lost their life's, and many more thousands have lost body parts. Remember Viet Nam? I do and back then you had old men and some not so old playing with the lives of young American boys sending them to fight a war that was NEVER declared. Have we actually declared war on Iraq???
NOW the difference is that we have old men and some not so old, and old women and some not so old, playing with the lives of our young American boys and girls in a war (was it ever declared?). So I guess the BIG question I HAVE to ask about the War On Terror is this. If the War on Terror is SO important, and if the main reason is too keep our country and people safe, then WHY after 6 1/2 years since 911 are our borders STILL SO OPEN!!!!!!
IF IT IS about keeping our people safe and our country safe, wouldn't one of the first things you do is make SURE it is difficult for people to enter our country without us knowing about it??? It just makes common sense to me that closing our borders would be one of the FIRST things we should do. I would think that most of our young people would rather be protecting our borders from invasion then being the invaders. If the terrorists can't get here, then won't it be harder for them to hurt us? If our young people are going to have to serve in a desert wouldn't most rather be closer to home? At least this way maybe they could get home more to see their families and be serving in a safer place.
The problem is NOT our young people serving. They will protect us, they have already given so much. The problem is not with them. The problem is with the people in power on BOTH sides , that are playing with their lives. Making them serve tour after tour of duty.
The Crisis Of The War On Terror!
If it is such a big deal then WHY aren't our borders closed? WHY? You can't say we haven't had enough time to close them. We have had over six years. If our safety and the safety of our country is so important to take away people's rights and freedoms (such as the Patriot Act), then WHY isn't it important enough to seal our borders???
How can it be a crisis, how can it be a war on terror, when one of the most important things to do to assure our safety ISN'T done? Is it as much a War On Terror or is it more a War On The Rights Of Americans?
America's Biggest Homegrown Terror Cell
People in Washington are always talking about the war on terror. Always talking about how important this fight is. Yet these same people are so lax in there true opinion about securing our borders. Why, once 911 happened, wasn't the sealing of our borders one of the first things we did?
Until people get serious about the sealing of the borders to protect our country and our people, I can't take their talk too seriously. There is always the talk about this terrorist group or that terrorist or group. Yet the biggest terrorist group in America, the one group that strikes fear in the heart of almost every American is a homegrown group or Cell as so many that talk about protecting us (but not doing the first step of closing the borders) like to call them, that was actually created by the United States Government.
What can I be talking about? "Terror" to frighten, a state of intense fear, a frightening aspect, one that inspires fear, a cause of anxiety. "Terrorism" the systematic use of terror esp as a means of coercion. "Terrorize" to fill with terror or anxiety, to coerce by threat.
Read those definitions, do they remind you of anything? How about April 15th? How about anytime a person gets a letter from the IRS? Are not the American people terrorized by the thought of having to deal with the IRS? Then you hear stories like the one coming out of Illinois.
"The Internal Revenue Service recently warned a seven-year-old boy from the northwestern
Now you know what the IRS does when they warn. People are so afraid of them because the power they have when they say you owe something. They strike FEAR in the hearts of Americans. One reason citizens need to get behind the Fair Tax, www.fairtax.org .
I remember the time when you went and got a Social Security Number when you reached the age where you could start working. NOW they are gotten at birth, WHY? Why make the parents apply for a SSN for a child 16 years before they would start working? This itself is another issue.
The facts are this seven year old CHILD may face problems in life with his credit rating. You know how hard it is to get your rating fixed because of identity theft if that has ever happened to you. If this child didn't have to get a SSN until he was old enough to work, then at this time he wouldn't be a victim.
"Officers said Friday the second-grader's identity has been in use by someone else since 2001 -- not long after his birth.
Detectives accused 29-year-old Cirilo Centeno of
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE????
A seven year old has three separate jobs, gas and electrical service for his home, a credit card,unemployment benefits, more then $60,000.00 in pay and services???????? Why wasn't this caught instead of getting a warning letter from the IRS? Why didn't a human being with a little common sense look at this and say "Something is wrong here, I need to find out what is going on." NOT send a warning letter.
Do you remember hearing stories of people calling IRS asking the SAME questions about Tax Codes and getting different answers from different people from the same question? It happens all the time. In the next couple of months it will be happening. How can an agency that is given so much power, not being held accountable for knowing the answers? If it is because the answers are to complicated then doesn't that say something for our tax code?
Does it get harder every year to do my taxes because I am getting less smart every year, or is it because they make them more complicated? Why do they make them harder to understand? To keep the control and power. If people don't understand, they will be less likely to create waves.
Some will say, it can't be changed. Why can't it. OUR representatives are the ones that give the IRS life. They are the same ones that can take it away. Like the war so many will say we need to get out, yet these same people who have the power to do something about it won't. Yes I am talking about the representatives. They talk about getting out, yet they are the ones that hold the purse strings and they keep on opening the purse. Check out the Fair Tax, the tax code CAN be changed.
It reminds me of the Sarah Conner Chronicles. Have you seen it or the movies? Man creates robots then finally robots take over. Well man created IRS and listening to some people talk we can't do much about the tax code. WHY NOT??? We can and the representatives that say we can't should be sent home to live under the laws they have passed. They should be replaced with people who WILL represent the people.
"Our hope will become the light that will shine the way to pave the road for our children. The road of our children has to be a road of freedom."

Three Reasons Conservatives Are Excited About Bush 41's Endorsement Of McCain
Three Reasons Conservatives Are Excited About Bush 41's Endorsement Of McCain
Read My Lips! 
It was interesting listening to the reporting today of George H.W. Bush endorsing John McCain. Many talking about how this should help win over the conservative members of the party that have been objecting to McCain. Of course the many making such statements would have liberal leanings if the truth was known. Since he was Vice-President under President Reagan for eight years, then the endorsement would surely win them over.
With that reasoning the conservatives must really be dumb. Or is it the liberal pundits? Let's examine why like John McCain, George H.W. Bush also had problems with the conservative members of the republican party.
So why would the conservative members of the Republican Party be so excited about Bush 41 endorsing McCain? Let us visit three reasons.
"Voodoo Economics" Some of us haven't forgotten that BEFORE Ronald Reagan gave George Bush life again and picked him to be the Vice President that they had a very combative battle for the Republican nomination.
"New World Order" As much as some, maybe many would like for you to think
that there is nothing to the talk of a New World Order. There is something to it. Do some research, if not for yourself, if not for your country, then for the children. If you don't believe in the New World Order, then don't be lazy, do some research. It is real and it is out there for you to find. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CWBTL33MpA
also this one
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-pVmL2RyYe4&feature=related
Listen to this, the words that are said. Do some research and the words will jump out at you.
"Read My Lips" Who can forget that? " Read My Lips, No New Taxes." Until he teamed with the democrats. Wow, could that also be something that could happen with John McCain?? Watch the video and hear what he said, then compare it to what he did. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CP9_kkzfN-w
also listen to this:

McCain on ABC:
- STEPHANOPOULOS: So on taxes, are you a “read my lips” candidate, no new taxes, no matter what?
- MCCAIN: No new taxes I do not — in fact, I could see an argument if our economy continues to deteriorate for lower interest rates, lower tax rates and certainly decreasing corporate tax rates, which are the second-highest in the world, giving people the ability to write off depreciation in a year, elimination of the AMT. There’s a lot of things that I would think we should to relieve that burden, including, obviously, as we all know, simplification of the tax code.
- STEPHANOPOULOS: But under no circumstances would you increase taxes?
- MCCAIN: No.
- STEPHANOPOULOS: So on taxes, are you a “read my lips” candidate, no new taxes, no matter what?
- MCCAIN: No new taxes I do not — in fact, I could see an argument if our economy continues to deteriorate for lower interest rates, lower tax rates and certainly decreasing corporate tax rates, which are the second-highest in the world, giving people the ability to write off depreciation in a year, elimination of the AMT.

Lets look at them both. What a difference a day makes as the old saying goes.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iu92O1PL6UY
As Patrick Henry said:"I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience. I know of no way of judging the future but by the past."
Read the excerpted part from an essay below or read the whole essay if you don't understand by now why conservatives HAD problems with George H. W. Bush also. With that being understood, why would his endorsement of someone excite them?
"The impact of the pledge was considerable, and many believe it helped Bush win the 1988 United States presidential election. Once president, however, Bush agreed to raise several taxes as part of a 1990 budget agreement. This has been attributed to a declining economy, ballooning budget deficits, and the need to compromise with the Democrat-controlled Congress. This reversal caused great controversy, especially in the more conservative wing of the Republican Party. "
Excerpted from an essay by Michael R. Beschloss:
At the Republican Convention in Detroit, Ronald Reagan worried about the depth of Bush's convictions. At first he resisted advice to choose for Vice President the man who had gotten the second most votes in the primaries. He privately disparaged Bush's ability to "stand up to the pressure of being President": "I'm concerned about turning the country over to him." But after former President Ford withdrew his name from consideration, Reagan swallowed his doubts, made the call, and asked Bush whether he could support the party platform, the most conservative in forty years.
This was no small question. During the primaries, Bush had derided Reagan's hallmark pledge to cut taxes while hugely increasing the defense budget as "voodoo economics." He had supported abortion rights. But, willing to pay the price for political rebirth, Bush immediately told Reagan that he could support the platform "wholeheartedly." .....
Bush's eight years as Reagan's number two were made miserable by his ostentatious effort to convince what he privately called the "extra-chromosome" conservatives that he was not some kind of closet one-world liberal. Bush's vice-presidential predecessor, Walter Mondale, had warned him after the 1980 election that "a President does not want and the public does not respect a Vice President who does nothing but deliver fulsome praise of a President." ....
But Bush now felt his only chance for President in 1988 lay in winning over Reagan and his increasingly dominant wing of the party. On the simple level of private character, he showed admirable loyalty. More than any other vice president of the post-war era, Bush refused to allow sunlight between himself and his President. He eschewed background interviews with reporters designed to make himself look good at the boss's expense and used all public opportunities to demonstrate himself as a Reaganite, at one moment incautiously saying, "I'm for Mr. Reagan, blindly!" He defended himself by saying that in his family, loyalty was "not considered a character flaw."
It was the unrelenting ardor of that loyalty, from a Vice President who had once so disagreed with the Reaganites, that critics considered a character flaw. .......
During the (1988) campaign, Bush had encouraged the impression that his first years in office might be tantamount to Reagan's third term, with many Reagan appointees held over and the former President perhaps flown in from California from time to time as a kind of political godfather. That did not happen. Few high officials survived from the era of Reagan into that of Bush. During the Bush presidency, the forty-first President, who still held the hearts of most Republicans and to whom Bush owed his office, appeared in the White House exactly twice. Many conservatives suspected that by thumbing his nose at Reaganism, the new President, intoxicated by victory, was paying them back for all the years of humiliations while courting the right.
If they were correct, Bush was showing dangerous hubris and self-indulgence. The Republican Party, if anything, was growing more conservative than ever. If Bush did not wish to expend the effort to try moving his party to the center, as Eisenhower had attempted and failed to do, it would have been more sensible for the President to show that he understood the balance of forces within his party. But, buoyed by his high approval ratings, Bush gave signs of allowing himself to believe that he was unsinkable. His "what-me-worry?" attitude culminated in July 1990, when he reneged on his supreme campaign promise not to raise taxes. This told conservatives once and for all that Bush was not really one of them. .....
Where Have All The Debates (Flowers) Gone?
Where Have All The Debates (Flowers) Gone?
Is it just me or did it not too long ago seem like there was a debate every night? Well maybe not every night but there were a lot. What has happened? Now that it is down to a couple of candidates in both parties wouldn't this really be the time to have a lot of debates?
Why the silence on debates? Hillary Clinton has called for debates with Obama but he hasn't bit on them yet. John McCain doesn't want to debate Mike Huckabee. What if McCain was questioned on the economy? What if his noted temper surfaced? Mike Huckabee would be glad to debate McCain.
Why don't the networks come up with some debates? The facts are this. If the networks will come up with some debate dates and every candidate will show up. How can Obama not show up at a debate Clinton is attending? How can McCain not show up at a debate Huckabee is attending? I know McCain is attempting to act like the nomination is his. Hardly campaigning in Virginia. Is this not a little slap of the face of voters?
Remember the debates one network had where both parties were at the same venue and debated the same night? They even came out and shook hands between the two debates.
I know MSNBC needs ratings. This would be a good time and chance for them to pull in some ratings.
Set the date and time, have a debate for both parties. Clinton and Huckabee will show up. If the other two won't then Clinton and Huckabee can debate. What kind of press would that get. Or better yet have a debate of all 4 candidates. Why wait till October?
FOX, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, where are the debates. Why aren't one of you coming up with some debates for people to take part in? Hmmm! Could it be because the one you have declared to be the winner or the other one you favor are ahead?
Why so many debates and when it finally gets down to a number that the debates could provide much information, there are NONE?
What Does The Kansas Vote Say?
What Does The Kansas Vote Say?
I believe that the Kansas caucus vote today for the republicans said a number of things. It made it clear how much more work John McCain has to do to win over the conservative vote.
The article I wrote the other day about this being a football came, let me revisit real quickly. Do you remember the last super bowl? If you watched it you saw where the game was over, EXCEPT there was time on the clock and they had to come back on the field and run one more play.
Mike Huckabee crushed John McCain in Kansas. Still everyone it seems wants to talk about NOT how McCain got crushed in this race BUT how Huckabee has NO chance of winning. There is still a lot of time left in the game. Anything can happen. McCain has a temper. McCain isn't good in talking about the economy. Where has all of the debates gone too?
At least Mike Huckabee isn't letting down all of his supporters that have worked so hard for him. If nothing else he is showing John McCain and OTHERS (old guard Republicans and more) what a problem McCain has with the conservative base.
It looks like Huckabee has won Louisiana. Washington state they have stopped the counting for the night but Huckabee could win it and if not it will be Very close.
Tonight also shows that the people aren't listening to the media or the establishment. Every where you look or listen the drums are beating that Huckabee can't win or McCain has the nomination. For the elections to turn out like they have tonight with all the drum beating for McCain, that speaks volumes. People STILL want to be heard. Here is hoping that they will go out in upcoming elections and speak LOUD!
There are MANY attempting to control the outcome of these elections and they aren't ALL the Media. There are a LOT of ESTABLISHMENT players who are trying to take back control.
Let the people listen and let the people decide what is best. Let the people think, they actually are smart enough to make a decision without the help of the talking heads or the old establishment.
What If It Was A Football Game?
How Easy Are Our Thoughts Controlled?
Can The Media McCain Train Be Stopped?
If everybody buys into "McCain can't be stopped", then guess what? He can't be stopped.
Let us look at this as a football game. You remember that sport don't you? Just a few days ago a game was played called the Super Bowl.
One team was the New England Patriots. They were 18 - 0. No losses and they were destined to be the champions, to win everything. They were going against the New York Giants. The Giants for a long time in their season were struggling just to finish above .500 for the season. The last game of the season before the playoffs the Giants were defeated by the Patriots.
Listening to almost everyone the Giants should have just stayed home. Think about the carbon imprint they would have saved. When the game was over the Patriots had been defeated. The underdog Giants WON!
If you thought about the Republican Nomination Process as a football game it would be about 5 1/2 minutes into the 3rd quarter. There are 15 minutes in a quarter and 4 quarters in a game. With that being said the Huckabee team is down by a big score. But there is STILL enough time in the game to try and win it. You can't win it by holding your head down thinking there is no way to win this game.
It is time for a few hail mary passes, a few hawg wild plays. An appropriate play since Huckabee is from Arkansas. A Hawg Wild Formation was run by the University Of Arkansas football team the past two seasons.
How To Stop Or Slow Down The Media McCain Train:
I suggested this in a earlier article before Romney suspended his race. It would have worked for Romney because he has the money and that isn't a issue. What I suggested was that Mitt Romney announce who his Vice President running mate would be. I suggested that he try to bring someone on board like Newt Gingrich.
A person like Newt Gingrich (if Romney could have talked him into coming on board) would have gotten the media buzz. Also what better person to help with how to battle the democrats and come up with a plan to submit to the voters? A plan does need to be laid out, not only for the Presidential race but also for the congressional races. As I stated in a article the other day, the senate and congressional races are the most important races. With them you can get people in to stop or slow down the liberal agenda. I heard Rush Limbaugh picking up on that today. He too was saying what I had put in an earlier article about how important the congress could be in all of this.
Since Mitt Romney has only suspended his race and has kept control of his delegates, I assume that he could change his mind and get back in if something odd happened. So what could make something odd happen?
There are STILL 3 people in the Republican Presidential Race. Mike Huckabee, Ron Paul and that guy from Arizona. As I stated in another article John McCain always looked like he thought Ron Paul was crazy when Dr. Paul would comment on certain things. But after watching John McCain's expression when Dr. Paul asked him a question about the economy, and after listening to him stumble to try and come up with an answer, I may be wrong. It may be as simple as John McCain had the funny looks because he simply doesn't understand the issues of the economy, which was shown by Ron Paul's question to him. If you want to see it go here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v
Mike Huckabee could still announce who he would choose for Vice President. Then he could put that person out on the trail. A person like Newt Gingrich would get the press and also get people excited and help bring money in. If he couldn't get Newt to come on board he could still come up with someone else that could strengthen him and get the press.
It would also FORCE all of the other candidates to do the same (democrats also). Today McCain was asked about Vice President and he didn't answer the question, he said it was too early. Why is it too early? I know you would want to save that for press later, but WHY NOT NOW? It is important everyone knows and if it is so certain McCain has this nomination then why not? Of course if McCain made the wrong pick it might slow his train and if Huckabee made the right one it might speed up his train. Same thing for Clinton or Obama. But why not force the issue and make everyone lay that card on the table?
If Huckabee would do this and could get the right person on board it could really shake things up. People are looking for something to excite them. This would be one of those plays in the football game that if it was successful it could change the momentum of the game. The score of the game is such that it is time to put in the Hawg Wild Formation.
People want to make fun of Ron Paul, most of the ones that do so don't understand what he is saying. It is so foreign to what they are use to hearing that it sounds very strange to them. IF these people who want to make fun of Ron Paul would do their work, and research some of the issues he brings up, they might then understand what he is really saying. They might then also understand why his supporters are so passionate about Dr. Ron Paul.
The big three conservative radio talk show hosts tried to destroy Huckabee's campaign when they were trying to push Romney to the top. They all three really have a problem with McCain. They still have a problem with him. Here is another play that could change the game.
Let some of these big radio hosts come on board and push Ron Paul. One reason Ron Paul isn't being taken seriously is because he is either left out of a debate or overlooked mostly when he is allowed in one. Since there is ONLY 3 left if some would get behind him imagine the press. There is a reason people who like Ron Paul work so hard for him. If you want to stop McCain and don't want to get behind Huckabee then get behind Ron Paul. At least enough to get him attention so people will be able to really understand where he stands. A lot of what Ron Paul says people don't like hearing. But for our country's sake the people need to hear it.
Remember how the name Huckabee sounded kind of funny? It doesn't sound so funny now does it? Well if Ron Paul was allowed to speak his truth's enough and people would do a little work and research, then what he is saying wouldn't be sounding funny. If you really want to stop McCain get a forum where Ron Paul is allowed to ask John McCain a few questions. Get him ten minutes to ask McCain questions and he will destroy him. The ten minutes doesn't include the time McCain will fumble around to attempt to answer them. Hell, let Dr. Paul ask McCain five minutes of questions and he will destroy him.
One of the issues that American's understand and care about is closing our borders. Again I ask how can you really say we are fighting a war on terror and we REFUSE to close our borders. Another way to slow the McCain Train is shine the light on one of his advisors. Juan Hernandez. If you watch any of the talk cable news shows you have seen this guy.
http://www.juanhernandez.org/
GLENN: Here it is, here's John McCain.
VOICE: I wonder if you agree with those policies. If so, explain it to me. And if not, why is he on your staff.
McCAIN: He's on my staff because he supports my policies and my proposals and my legislative proposal to secure the borders first, that no one will receive Social Security benefits who is in this country illegally. I don't know what his previous positions are, other previous positions are but he supports mine. I have nothing to do with his. And he has volunteered to help me with outreach to our Hispanic citizenry as that is his reach as I outreach to every citizen in America. I've made very clear my position on immigration, made very clear on my position on Social Security and, of course, I am grateful that we have so many people who came from Ireland to the United States of America and anybody else who can come here legally under the right system and that's the only system that I would ever support and I have no idea but I will check into the information you've given me. But I want to promise you I will secure our borders. I will not allow anyone to come here illegally. I will not allow anyone to receive Social Security or any other benefit because they have come here illegally and broken our laws.
GLENN: Okay. That's John McCain. Now, it's so disingenuous to say he doesn't know who this man is or his policies. This is a guy who used to work for Vicente Fox. He is the most open border guy you could possibly imagine. Here's just one clip of Juan Hernandez, and we've got tons of them and we'll be playing them over the next few days. Here's just one clip of Juan Hernandez on TV.
HERNANDEZ: I don't think that we need to build walls to control immigration. We are the 21st century now and we're a country that has always broken down walls. Once again with regard to securing the borders, we need to work with Mexico. We're never going to have a secure border. We're not going to put a wall up for these hundreds and hundreds thousands of miles. We have to work with our neighbors. We need to think now for the future. Canada, the United States and Mexico as a block.
GLENN: Canada, Mexico and America as a block. That's who this guy is. Michelle?
MALKIN: A block, not a region. He said it many times. He also, when he worked for this Mexican bureaucracy called the presidential office for Mexican abroad, what he did was he spent his time traveling all across our country lobbying local, state and federal officials for driver's license for illegal aliens. He defended his operators who were carrying illegal aliens to the country and who promoted extending banking privileges here in the United States to illegal aliens, lobbied to get lower rates for them so that they could send home billions of dollars in remittances back to their country. The guy does not believe in borders. He is a senior fellow at something called the Reform Institute which is a think tank that John McCain founded and it has come under scrutiny by the mainstream media because it underscores John McCain's hypocrisy not just on open borders but also on campaign finance because he's used his supposedly nonpartisan, nonprofit thinking to solicit donations from big donors who he then goes and crusades for while he's sitting on Senate committees. At this reform institute which is in part funded with George Soros money, Juan Hernandez was in charge of leading the lobbying campaign for John McCain's amnesty effort last year. And this reform institute also sponsored an art contest for students where they spent their time demonizing the border. And you can go and look. I linked this on my website, to all of the art that compares the walls our borders and our border fences to the Berlin wall which keeps people in instead of walling people out to prevent invasion, to prevent undermining our sovereignty, to prevent encroaching of our laws. And for McCain to have the gall to stand there and tell that voter in Florida who, by the way, learned about this Juan Hernandez thing by looking at our research on the Internet, for him to say that he supports securing the border first when he's got a guy outreaching to illegal aliens to persuade them to make John McCain President? It's more than nauseating.
Thank you for this part Glenn Beck www.glennbeck.com and Michelle Malkin www.michellemalkin.com .
So who in the Media will start asking John McCain about Juan Hernandez EVERYDAY????

I was very pleased to listen to the Laura Ingraham program and hear her treat Mike Huckabee with respect and fairness. Even though she was a supporter of Mitt Romney. If only the top three conservative broadcasters had been so fair in their treatment of Huckabee. They could (and should) take a lesson from Laura Ingraham. She was also on the stop McCain band wagon but she wasn't doing it by trying to destroy another. If you have never heard her, go to her website for the stations that carry her or to get her podcast. Give her a listen, her fairness deserves it.

Principal Matters - Who Will Sell Their Soul To Win An Election?
Principal Matters - Who Will Sell Their Soul To Win An Election?
What has changed in the last 24 hours? Has John McCain saw a light in the sky that changed his life and the way he sees life? Has John McCain had a miracle awakening where his position on important matters are changed?
I believe the answer to those questions are no, but Mitt Romney has suspended(what does that mean?) his race for President. A great speech he gave at CPAC. Too bad he hadn't been giving those speeches before. He gave his speech at CPAC before John McCain talked.
So now what happens? Many of the establishment are already jumping on board. John McCain wasn't a True Conservative (even though he is spinning it in his ads) 24 hours ago and he still isn't a True Conservative. This is where Principal Matters. If he was wrong for the Party 24 hours ago, he is still wrong.
Two other candidates also remain, even though listening to the cable news channels there is only one more and he doesn't have a chance. If they get out they don't have a chance. They should stay in to give the public a fair hearing.
It is important for Conservatives to stand up for their principals, they can't sale out (or at least shouldn't) in an attempt to win an election. Especially when the candidate is so similar as the Democrats in numerous ways.
What is one of the worst things that could happen to this country? Clinton or Obama getting elected President. What could be worse? A Republican running as a conservative that will govern more like a Democrat.
If the Democrat wins even with forty percent (if there is a third party candidate) they will claim a mandate and try to govern that way. If McCain won he would govern the way he feels is right. If you are a conservative you can forget about him attempting to govern that way. He won't. Remember: McCain-Feingold, McCain-Kennedy, McCain-Lieberman, Gang Of 14, 2 Votes against Bush Tax Cut.
As bad as it would be for the country if a Democrat got in and tried to pass their liberal programs, it would be far worse for a Republican to get in disguised as a conservative and they try to pass the SAME type of programs.
What should True Conservatives do? You don't want to vote for Clinton or Obama. If they win the more votes they get, the more they will use the term they will elected by a mandate. You don't want to vote for someone of your party if you KNOW they won't stand for what you think is right and important. Everyone should vote. That is a right we don't treat with the respect we should. Find a third party candidate that is closer to your way of thinking. Vote but make it a protest vote.
More important is to get involved with the House of Representives and Senate races. Find people who are True Conservatives that will stand up to the liberal democrats and republicans and work to get them elected. A President can't get a bill or program enacted if there is enough people in office to stand in their way.
This is important to keep the Liberal Candidates (there are three still in the races) in check once someone is elected. Also don't fall into the liberal trap of everyone saying McCain can't be stopped. It isn't over yet, as much as the liberal press would like to think and would like you to think. If you are in a state that hasn't had their primary yet, you can still make a difference and surprise the media. If you are in a state that has already had their primary then start to look seriously at the House of Representives races and the Senate races if you have a Senator coming up for election. They are suppose to represent you, they work for you, start holding them accountable.
Most important stay true to your principals and don't sale them out to someone who doesn't have the same principals.
McCain The Worst Choice For America
McCain The Worst Choice For America
John McCain would be the worst choice to run for President under the Republican banner. The main reason is that he doesn't embrace the main things about the Republican party that draws people to it. The main reason is that John McCain is more a liberal Democrat then he is a Republican.
The country doesn't need Two Democrat Parties. If John (Juan) McCain becomes the head of the Republican Party that is where it is headed. Evcn if Mitt Romney gets out of the race, McCain can still be stopped.
To stop him people have to believe he can be stopped. Then work to stop him. There will still be two other candidates in the race. Mike Huckabee can stop John McCain if people believe he can and start working for that. Huckabee is closer to the Republican Party then John McCain. Huckabee is more likable then McCain.
McCain will not beat either Clinton or Obama. The people that sing his praises are the same people that will pull push the button for Clinton or Obama over McCain if they have that choice.
We WON'T win with McCain. We could win with Huckabee and still keep part of our soul.
What Happens If Romney Drops Out?
What Happens If Romney Drops Out?
If Romney drops out it doesn't give the nomination to Juan McCain. There will still be two other candidates in the race. The party shouldn't secede its principals to McCain. He isn't the party and he shouldn't be running for President under the party banner.
