American Vision News : Liberals terrified: Paul "most conservative in modern history"

Sun, 8 Jan 2012 13:10:35 +0000

While I agree that Ron Paul is a conservative, this is far too outdated to conclude that he is THE most conservative. His son Rand Paul isn't included, nor is Allen West or Marco Rubio for just 3 examples... update the list and then we'll talk.

Vision to America : Democrats: States Should Not Require Voters to Present Photo ID

Tue, 8 Nov 2011 21:46:21 +0000

When you walk into any bank or credit union to cash a check, you are required to show photo id. When you show up at a hospital to visit a patient in Syracuse NY you must show photo id... Most people have a drivers license and use that as their photo id... In fact, when you renew your drivers license in Florida, you now must present a Certified United States birth certificate, Social Security Card, and TWO Proofs of Residential Address. All required and supporting documents MUST be original or certified. So now you tell me why it is unreasonable for someone to show a photo id in order to vote. And for those who don't drive they can obtain a photo identification from their state of residence.

Breitbart.tv : Dem Rep: 'You Don't Deserve to Keep All' Your Money

Fri, 16 Sep 2011 10:25:29 +0000

I think that if it were about 'fariness' everyone would pay the exact same percentage of their income in taxes... No tax breaks, no unearned income credit, to tax exemptions... A flat tax for everyone, including those who now contribute nothing. What ISN'T fair is for the government to keep forcing some to pay all and others to pay none! And don't forget the 'tax breaks for the rich' are what DEMOCRATS use to give their crony's a break and to use as a cudgel against Republicans who try to hold the line on tax increases.

Big Government : Do Profitable Senators Need Taxpayer Subsidies?

Sun, 15 May 2011 11:35:42 +0000

We all know the drill... before the Democrats stick-it to some group of citizens, they continually demonize the crap out of them for their evil profiteering (not that Congressional members don't want money, as evidenced by their own practice of collecting campaign contributions on topp of their already obscene salaries, perks and pensions).... Bottom line is Obama wants to raise the price of gas to build his base with union jobs in transit, meaning railroads, buses, and airlines. In addition, by removing from the oil companies their tax deductions, breaks or subsidies he knows that they will pass the additional taxes they must pay on to consumers, raising gas prices higher forcing people out of their cars and onto public transportation. Locally it is already being reported that as the price of gas soars, more and more are taking the bus... So if you like driving your car and don't want to be forced to change because some Democrat on high has decided you must be made to ride a bus or train, then call Congressional Democrats and tell 'em to cut the crap and treat the oil companies just like they treat their pet corporation, GE...

Funny how they're NOT protesting GE... who paid ZERO taxes last year... Their phoney outrage should be directed at 1400 Pennsylvania Ave. and send the DemocRATs living there packing... along with his DemocRAT buddies!!

Big Government : Thursday Open Thread: Trump Edition

Thu, 7 Apr 2011 11:55:50 +0000

OK, I'm going to just say this... I'm in FL and in the primary I was a McCollum supporter so it's not like I was ga-ga over Rick Scott. Well I am now!! Rick Scott's a business guy who joined the race because he was just as ticked-off as we are and since he's no politico, he has the backbone to do what needs to be done, even if it means ticking off the 'entitled' crowd. I think that Donal Trump is in this catagory... He doesn't need the money and in fact he gave Obama every benefit of the doubt early on, but has now come out against him because he believes he's bad for the country. I think Trump can compete and win and if he does I think he'll have the backbone to take on the job and get it done. As far as the others, I like Huckabee -- on Fox, but not as our candidate, I like Pence, but not as our candidate, like Mitt, but not MittCare and not as our candidate... I want a candidate who will not be sidetracked by social issues and will stick to our economy and jobs. One who isn't playing hookie from his day job in the House or Senate because he's hedging his bets. One who can give as good as he gets in a fight. Trump does these so I can support him..

Big Government : EPA Is Now Using Taxpayer Dollars to Pay Lung Association to Attack Republicans

Thu, 24 Mar 2011 12:52:50 +0000

We must make sure that the American Lung Association looses their Better Business Bureau accredidation for wise giving as well. I'm sure that wise-giving does not include political activism to attack a member of Congress with taxpayer dollars or back-room deals as a surrogate from the EPA. Those of you who do/did contribute, please complain to your state BBB as well... Here's a link to the complete list: http://www.bbb.org/us/Find-Business-Reviews/name/... Simply click the File a complaint link under the name of the one/s you wish to complain about. Michigan is on page 2 of 3... The BBB that will handle your complaint is: BBB of Detroit & Eastern Michigan (Southfield, MI) 26777 Central Park Blvd. Suite 100 Southfield, MI 48076-4163 Phone: (248)223-9400 Fax: (248)356-5156 Email: info@easternmichiganbbb.org Web: http://www.easternmichiganbbb.org Here is my complaint (feel free to copy & paste): The American Lung Association-MI has targeted House Energy & Commerce Chairman Fred Upton for his efforts to stop the EPA from regulating greenhouse gas emissions by placing billboards within sight of his district offices linking climate change with increased childhood asthma,” as reported by E&E News PM. The EPA has paid the American Lung Association over $20 million in taxpayer money in the last ten years, and has paid the ALA many more millions in a symbiotic relationship going back to at least 1990 to act as a political surrogate for the EPA. The EPA-ALA relationship works something like this: EPA pays the ALA and, in return, the ALA agitates for more stringent EPA air quality regulation, including by lawsuit. Now it’s billboards that attack a member of Congress with whom the head of the EPA disagrees, but is unable to attack on its own. This is NOT the stated goal of the ALA and they should have to operate as a political entitiy if they are going to enter that arena. Nor is it what the public donates it's money to engage in. Please remove your wise-giving accredidation from ALL ALA offices until they either remove themselves from political activism or register as a PAC.

Anyone know of a search engine that DOESN'T give to Democrats? I use Yahoo, like 'em but they give big to D's... fortunately I don't pay, but I'd rather use one that contributes 50-50 or mostly to R's.

Big Government : Wednesday Open Thread: Oil Edition

Wed, 2 Mar 2011 12:37:12 +0000

We need to target, (that's right, target) the seats of those who refuse to address all forms of energy production INCLUDING drilling, natural gas, nuclear power & hydrolic power! If someone who represents YOU wants only green energy tell 'em you will expect them to practice what they preach - you'll note the Obama has NO qualms about the amount of gas used flying the wings off Air Force One, or Marine One... only when you or I need to get to work does the king have a fit!! FLORIDIANS - That little weasel in the Florida House, Rick Kriseman (D-53) is sponsoring a bill that will amend the Florida Constitution to ban oil drilling off the coast of Florida... he also claims there is a grass roots move for this as well.... He just happens to be up for re-election in 2012 and we need to beat the seat from under his pompous derriere!

Big Government : Boxer Tied to Dubious Waters Cash-for-Endorsement Scheme

Thu, 9 Sep 2010 03:33:09 +0000

No, we have TERM LIMITS in FLORIDA and all the professional politicians do is swap seats when they term out. We, the people need to get INFORMED and vote out those who strip us of our liberty, raise our taxes and re-distribute our 'wealth' in the name of 'social justice'... like Babs does at every opportunity.

Big Government : Local Government Run Amok, Example #17,568: Dallas Sign Ban

Fri, 26 Feb 2010 17:04:45 +0000

Businesses will find a way, there's still the WALL space, point of entry and sidewalk /parking lot that can be used. Business owners who are ticked off by this could try and make the new signage as hideous as possible - painting the parking lot entryways/exits with ads, chalk ads on the sidewalks and entry points and signs that are really inside, but can be viewed through the window..... and graffiti will now be the new ad.... whoohoo!

Big Government : The Republican Party Began as a Tea Party Movement

Wed, 17 Feb 2010 15:32:31 +0000

"financed through tons of cash that egoists are too greedy to spread among fellow citizens" Said like a true 'somethin-for-nothin' Democrat looking for a handout by supporting the likes of this group who attended the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee function: Menendez Robert (D-NJ) Stabenow, Debbie (D-MI) Carper, Tom (D-DE) Lautenberg, Frank (D-NJ) Cardin, Benjamin L. (D-MD) Sanders, Bernie (D-VT) Casey, Robert P. (D-PA) McCaskill, Claire (D-MO) Klobuchar, Amy (D-MN) Hagan, Kay (D-NC) Begich, Mark (D-AK And here is a partial listing of lobbyists who also attended and who in addition to making a nice fat donation to the DSCC gave as follows: --AFLAC - Stabenow (D-MI)=$1,000, Carper (D-DE)=$2,000, Klobuchar (D-MN)=$1,000, McCaskill (D-MO)=$1,000 --Lockheed Martin - Carper (D-DE)=$2,000 --AT&T (source of executive talent for the new GM) - Begich (D-AK)=$2,500 --Microsoft - Menendez (D-NJ)=$1,000, McCaskill (D-MO)=$1,000 --American Hospital Association - Stabenow (D-MI)=$2,500, Carper (DDE)=$1,000, Lautenberg (D-NJ)=$1,000, Menendez (D-NJ)=$1,000, Casey (D-PA)=$250 --Fedex - McCaskill (D-MO)=$2,500, Begich (D-AK)=$1,000, Carper (D-DE)=$1,000 --UPS - McCaskill (D-MO)=$500, Stabenow (D-MI)=$500, Menendez (D-NJ)=$2,000, Carper (D-DE)=$1,400, Hagan (D-NC)=$1,500 --Disney/ESPN - Klobuchar (D-MN)=$1,000 So I guess the bottom line would be do you want a 21st century hillbilly that believes in God to represent you or a crooked, self-serving democratic shyster? The war-mongering doesn't really apply since Obama and the Dems in Congress have come out and defended Obama's prosecution of the wars as exaclty what Republicans and George W. Bush had done.... and all that cash for 'egoists' that are too greedy to spread it around - only these egoists have a (D) behind their name....

Big Government : The Republican Party Began as a Tea Party Movement

Wed, 17 Feb 2010 14:54:57 +0000

Thanks for the history lesson, and a reminder of the roots of the Republican Party. The only difference I see is that the teaparty movement is the awakening of the pubic to the shennanigans of both parties in Congress and their effort to force politicians to representing their constituents and the country instead of themselves and their party. As a Republican I am disgusted with FL Governor Charlie Christ's attempt to manipulate himself into a non-term-limited Senate seat which came open early. Instead of appointing someone geared toward representing Floridians, he searched and searched for someone who would vow not to run against him for the seat in November. Not finding such a Republican, he chose instead to appoint his best friend to the seat. One might also note that even though LeMueix has served less than a year, he will still receive his pension and health insurance. These are the kinds of deals that infuriate regular Americans, but that the politicians consider business as usual. Teaparty folks are not the idiots that the MSM try to portray, and we realize that the Republican Party is closer to our value system than the Democratic Party. The only way to move forward is to become involved in more than protests by choosing one of the Parties and become active enough to make our voice heard and overwhelm any progressive voices within BOTH partys with our numbers. Buckle up, the ride's going to be rough whether your a (D) or an (R) because we're coming and we're going to use the progressive playbook against them....

Breitbart.com : Frank: Partisanship is out of control in Congress

Wed, 17 Feb 2010 11:22:11 +0000

Barney Frank is THE POSTER CHILD for partisanship, and corruption, and vote-selling and special-interests. He is exactly the kind of self-serving weasel we need to remove from the halls of Congress. The very person who was a Congressman longer than George W. Bush was president and is therefore the very person responsible for the meltdown of this economy from his dirty dealings. We don't need the likes of him telling us what's wrong, we need for him to go back to MA and have to actually work for a living like the rest of us -- IF he could find a job ...

Sun, 4 Oct 2009 11:11:45 +0000

So let me get this right... In this case the Senate is going to 'HELP US' by forcing us to buy insurance for ourselves .... and for several others on top of paying for theirs. Then it has to be rushed through so it can sit on a shelf until AFTER 'that one's' hope for re-election is dashed. Of course we will be paying for it starting the day it's signed - but the plan that is supposed to insure the uninsured won't insure them for FIVE MORE YEARS! Were these morons standing behind the barn when God handed out common sense? Oh - that's right - they don't believe in God. They must have skipped it...and skipped getting any brains too!

Breitbart.com : Latest job report \'sobering\' : Obama

Sun, 4 Oct 2009 10:41:58 +0000

You've got to be kidding - this is the Administration that doesn't want to let a crisis go to waste and they don't want it to improve either.... that jobless rate is 9.8 for this month... that would be on top of the 9.7 for last month and the months before that. Plus, how can it be 9.8 nationally when it's: 10.4% Alabama 12.2% California 10.7% Florida 11.1% Kentucky 15.2% Michigan 13.2% Nevada 10.8% North Carolina 12.2% Oregon 12.8% Rhode Island 11.5% South Carolina 10.8% Tennessee Oh, that's right D.C. gained jobs.... that explains it.

Glenn Beck - The 912 Project : America's Wish List Pt. I

Fri, 27 Mar 2009 03:41:43 +0000

Anyone currently holding any public office has to resign in order to run for any other office. It was absolutely ridiculous that we had Senators Clinton, Obama, Biden, Dodd, McCain, and Brownback plus Representatives Richardson, Paul, Tancredo and Hunter, all of whom continued to collect their pay while ignoring their job to run for President.
