The Real Change obama was Talking About

August 30, 2010

A commentary. Food for thought. Obama plays the role of the caring compassionate president while behind the  scenes he is slowly destroying our freedom and security and bankrupting the country in the process.  Worth reading. ________________________________________ WAYNE ALLYN ROOT:  Overwhelm the system Barrack Obama is no fool. He is not incompetent. To the contrary, he is brilliant. He knows exactly what he’s doing. He is purposely overwhelming the U.S. economy to create systemic failure, economic crisis and social chaos — thereby destroying capitalism and our country from within. Barack...

A Valid Reason to Boycott AZ

IT’S TIME TO END POLICING FOR PROFIT IN ARIZONA In Arizona, police can seize your property, sell it and keep the money to fund their own budgets without so much as charging you with a crime.   Under civil forfeiture laws, police and prosecutors can even seize your property after you have been found not guilty of a crime, says Timothy Keller, executive director of the Institute for Justice Arizona Chapter. For example: Prosecutors need merely to show by a preponderance of the evidence the property was connected to criminal...

Critics Wonder About Carbon Footprint Of Al Gore’s New Montecito Mansion by ERICA LIEPMANN, Causecast Associate Editor Former Vice President Al Gore has been an important figure in the environmental movement, helping to catalyze a global dialogue about climate change with the acclaimed film An Inconvenient Truth. With the recent purchase of an almost $9 million Montecito villa, critics of Al Gore have raised eyebrows about the environmental leader’s own carbon footprint. The house sits on a 1.5 acre lot, which overlooks the ocean, and comes complete with a...

ARE YOU READY FOR GLOBAL COOLING? It’s not exactly Copenhagen or Kyoto, but the 700 scientists attending the fourth International Conference on Climate Change, sponsored by the Heartland Institute, had some chilling news of their own, says Investor’s Business Daily (IBD). “Global warming is over — at least for a few decades,” Don Easterbrook, emeritus professor of geology at Western Washington University, told the gathering.  “However, the bad news is that global cooling is even more harmful to humans than global warming, and a cause for greater concern.” According...

YES, FREE TRADE HAS ITS DEADLINES President Obama’s failure to go to bat for three pending free-trade agreements, in deference to Big Labor, is becoming a problem, says Investor’s Business Daily (IBD). According to a U.S. Chamber of Commerce study released Friday: Free trade pacts have created 5.4 million American jobs, and additional agreements could help create more. Some 17.7 million American jobs depend on the 14 countries with which the United States has existing pacts. All this trade adds $1 trillion to the economy. Yet the U.S. has...

AMERICA’S APPROACHING DEBT DISASTER When the Greek economy melted down recently its citizens rioted in the streets. Some have called it “the death-spiral of a welfare state” — too much borrowing for too many social programs for too long. Eventually, the bottom falls out, says the Christian Broadcasting Network. But if you don’t think the economic chaos in Greece can come to America, economists say think again. America is on a fiscal course economists warn is unsustainable — racking up debts we will not be able to repay. This...

Theodore Roosevelt’s ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907. “In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American…There can be no divided allegiance here....

DON’T LET DEEPWATER DEEP-SIX OFFSHORE DRILLING The recent explosion and collapse of the Deepwater Horizon oil platform in the Gulf of Mexico was horrendous.   There is no question that steps should be taken to see that any correctable errors made don’t happen again.  But, from the point of view of the economy, national security and even environmental quality, halting new oil and gas development because of this one isolated incident would be an even worse disaster, says H. Sterling Burnett, a senior fellow with the National Center for Policy...

THE TRUTH BEHIND GREEN JOBS If green jobs were cost effective, industries and companies would have adopted them absent government prodding.  They haven’t because green technologies are usually more expensive than existing technologies, or they are untested, experimental, or unreliable, and thus they are by and large rejected by consumers in the marketplace, say H. Sterling Burnett, a senior fellow, and James Franko, a legislative assistant with the National Center for Policy Analysis. For instance, Spain was lauded by President Obama as a model for a new economy driven...

Earth Day’s kick in the ash Peter Foster, Financial Post Published: Wednesday, April 21, 2010 If one believed in cosmic irony, then the ongoing 40th of that unpronounceable Icelandic volcano might be taken as a message from Earth to those who will tomorrow celebrate the fortieth “Earth Day.” Although humans may stand in awe of the home planet, the home planet has absolutely zero concern for them. Meanwhile the disruptions in travel and trade caused by the vast cloud of volcanic ash give a tiny glimpse of the kind of...
