From the Great Land of Alaska

Sarah Palin

Democrat, Independent, or Republican....the second half of this email should make all of us very sick, send this on .....especially the second half......
READ TO THE VERY END!

VERY ENLIGHTENING!!!

AND VERY DISTURBING!!!

By Dewie Whetsell,
Alaskan Fisherman.
As posted in comments on Greta's article referencing the MOVEON ad about Sarah Palin.

The last 45 of my 66 years I've spent in a commercial fishing town in Alaska. I understand Alaska politics but never understood national politics well until this last year. Here's the breaking point: Neither side of the Palin controversy gets it. It's not about persona, style, rhetoric, it's about doing things. Even Palin supporters never mention the things that I'm about to mention here.

1. Democrats forget when Palin was the Darling of the Democrats, because as soon as Palin took the Governor's office away from a fellow Republican and tough SOB, Frank Murkowski, she tore into the Republican's "Corrupt Bastards Club" (CBC) and sent them packing. Many of them are now residing in State housing and wearing orange jump suits The Democrats reacted by skipping around the yard, throwing confetti and singing, "la la la la" (well, you know how they are). Name another governor in this country that has ever done anything similar.

2. Now with the CBC gone, there were fewer Alaskan politicians to protect the huge, giant oil companies here. So she constructed and enacted a new system of splitting the oil profits called "ACES." Exxon (the biggest corporation in the world) protested and Sarah told them, "don't let the door hit you in the stern on your way out." They stayed, and Alaska residents went from being merely wealthy to being filthy rich. Of course, the other huge international oil companies meekly fell in line. Again, give me the name of any other governor in the country that has done anything similar.

3. The other thing she did when she walked into the governor's office is she got the list of State requests for federal funding for projects, known as "pork." She went through the list, took 85% of them and placed them in the "when-hell-freezes-over" stack. She let locals know that if we need something built, we'll pay for it ourselves. Maybe she figured she could use the money she got from selling the previous governor's jet because it was extravagant.

Maybe she could use the money she saved by dismissing the governor's cook (remarking that she could cook for her own family), giving back the State vehicle issued to her, maintaining that she already had a car, and dismissing her State provided security force (never mentioning - I imagine - that she's packing heat herself). I'm still waiting to hear the names of those other governors.

4. Now, even with her much-ridiculed "gosh and golly" mannerism, she also managed to put together a totally new approach to getting a natural gas pipeline built which will be the biggest private construction project in the history of North America. No one else could do it although they tried. If that doesn't impress you, then you're trying too hard to be unimpressed while watching her do things like this while baking up a batch of brownies with her other hand.

5. For 30 years, Exxon held a lease to do exploratory drilling at a place called Point Thompson. They made excuses the entire time why they couldn't start drilling. In truth they were holding it like an investment. No governor for 30 years could make them get started. Then, she told them she was revoking their lease and kicking them out. They protested and threatened court action. She shrugged and reminded them that she knew the way to the court house. Alaska won again.

6. President Obama wants the nation to be on 25% renewable resources for electricity by 2025. Sarah went to the legislature and submitted her plan for Alaska to be at 50% renewable by 2025. We are already at 25%. I can give you more specifics about things done, as opposed to style and persona. Everybody wants to be cool, sound cool, look cool. But that's just a cover-up. I'm still waiting to hear from liberals the names of other governors who can match what mine has done in two and a half years. I won't be holding my breath.

By the way, she was content to return to AK after the national election and go to work, but the haters wouldn't let her. Now these adolescent screechers are obviously not scuba divers. And no one ever told them what happens when you continually jab and pester a barracuda. Without warning, it will spin around and tear your face off. Shoulda known better.

You have just read the truth about Sarah Palin that sends the media, along with the democrat party, into a wild uncontrolled frenzy to discredit her. I guess they are only interested in skirt chasers, dishonesty, immoral people, liars, womanizers, murderers, and bitter ex-presidents' wives.

So "You go, Girl." I only wish the men in Washington had your guts, determination, honesty, and morals.
I rest my case. Only FOOLS listen to the biased media.

There has NEVER been anyone in the White House at any time who has created such an army of staffers whose sole duties are the facilitation of the First Lady's social life.

Note: This does not include makeup artist Ingrid Grimes-Miles, 49, and "First Hairstylist" Johnny Wright, 31, both of whom traveled aboard Air Force One to Europe ..

Examining Black Loyalty to Democrats

I love this man! I just found him from a friend who posted this on Facebook. The history and education mixed with energy and humor is great. A reminder that true freedom comes from a LIMITED government as outlined in our Constitution. More black Americans need to embrace this freedom that their ancestors fought for. We are all indoctrinated by a liberal education system that would keep us more and more dependant on a government that seeks to have more and more power and control over the people.

From Israel to Arizona

Marco Rubio: Obama Is Undermining Israel


By: Ronald Kessler

President Obama’s pronouncements and actions have been undermining Israel, Marco Rubio, the Republican candidate for Senate in Florida, says in a Newsmax interview. In responding to the Israeli raid on a Turkish flotilla, Obama has ignored the fact that the flot...illa’s organizers and participants were looking for a confrontation and have “strong direct ties to Islamic fundamentalists, jihadists, and terrorists and to many who do not believe in Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish state,” Rubio, a former speaker of the Florida House of Representatives, says.“I believe that there is an organized, systematic attempt to de-legitimize Israel’s right to exist and to undermine Israel’s right to defend itself,” Rubio says. “And so Israel has never needed strong American support more than it needs it now.”

Yet, Rubio says, “Some of the pronouncements and actions of this administration over the last year have emboldened those who are trying to de-legitimize Israel.”

As outlined in the Newsmax story Jews Turn Against Obama, in part because of Obama’s tilt against Israel, Jewish support for him has plummeted...

...Rubio says he is for the new Arizona immigration law as passed and against granting amnesty to illegal immigrants: “I think everyone’s first choice is for the federal government to deal with this issue squarely. So I hope that instead of being a model for 49 other states, Arizona’s law becomes a wake-up call for the federal government to once and for all deal with the issue of border security.” Asked how the Republican Party can woo Hispanics, Rubio says, “The No. 1 issue in the Hispanic community in America is not immigration. It’s economic empowerment. It’s the desire to do better and to leave our children better off, and there’s only one economic system in the world where that has been possible time and again, and that’s the American free enterprise system.”  [I love this, coming from a legal immigrant to America.  As I have said before, it's not about race, it's about being legal.]

My support goes out to Israel, true Hispanic Americans (legal), and maintaining our free enterprise system so that all American citizens can have their piece of the American Dream.  My support does NOT go to Obama.  Let's all do what we can towards the good!  As a reminder, a great place to start is at Act For America.  http://actforamerica.org/

What is America's True Form of Government?


This is an excerpt from "Overview of America" produced by The John Birch Society. It is narrated by John McManus. The true American form of government was meant to be a constitutional republic not a democracy, or anything else. Democracy means mob rule. 51% of the people rule the other 49%.

Hamilton said: “We are a Republican Government. Real liberty is never
found in despotism or in the extremes of Democracy.” And Samuel Adams
warned: “Remember, Democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts
and murders itself! There never was a democracy that ‘did not commit
suicide.’”

I know this isn't being taught in High School. Parents show your kids. Home schoolers definitely need to use this as a lesson as well.

Thanks for finding this contribution goes to Daniel Orcutt.

Is Alzheimers Now a Disease of the Young?




Symptoms of Alzheimer's now appears as a disease of the young and politically correct. For my day job, I work for an agency where I go in-home to take care of elderly clients. Many of these clients have Alzheimer's. Two main tactics used in caring for the elderly with this disease is to redirect and...simply put, lie. It's difficult getting used to the latter. But it is the most effective approach to keeping them calm and getting them to do what you want. "Helen, let's go down to the salon and get your hair fixed up for tonight." (said in my best I'm going to a party voice) In reality I am taking her to the bathroom to give her a shower, which is the last thing she wants to do. This isn't cruel or wrong when taking care of Alzheimer's patients. I am keeping Helen happy and calm while taking care of important basic needs that are good for her health. Using this same approach on the masses is another story.

Liberal politicians and mass media are trying to act as the "Caregivers" to a vast number of the population diseased with these same symptoms of Alzheimer's, short-term memory and a childlike inability to comprehend what is best for them. Political correctness is the number one tool used to Lie and Redirect the average person from dealing with reality. Here are just a few examples:

~It's in the New York Times today except they don't call it redistribution of wealth because that's no longer politically correct! It's now wealth inequality!
~... but I just had to take this opportunity to wish you a happy 'Spring Holiday' season. It's sad but true: Davenport, Iowa actually went after Good Friday and tried to change it into yet another completely meaningless, politically correct celebration of the change in weather - like 'winter solstice' instead of Christmas. (Glenn Beck)
~the White House labeled Nidal Malik Hasan — the terrorist who killed 13 and wounded 30 more at Fort Hood — an extremist? Media outlets nationwide referred to him as a "shooter" and a "gunman." He's been called "troubled" and "harassed." NOT a terrorist!
~The news media, the filter through which Americans receive their information, is reluctant to define the enemy. Indeed, within the last week, it has become politically incorrect to describe the Islamic terrorists who blew up the World Trade Center and Pentagon, murdering thousands of innocent Americans, as "Islamic terrorists." (By David Kupelian)
~The refusal to use the term "Radical Islam" has been in the news repeatedly lately. Some politicians claim there is no such thing!
~Conservative scholar Robert Bork has charged that the educational system is a battleground where the future of America is being undermined and ill-served. He has counseled against the troubles which will ensue as a result of anti-religious policies in the schools, permissive attitudes toward homosexuality and abortion, as well as welfare policies that have destroyed families since Lyndon B. Johnson's War on Poverty.
~Controversy in Obama's campaign for President to Texas textbook debate on whether to use Obama's middle name Hussein

We could go on and on with ludicrous examples. Or ludemocracy as I call it where the liberal politicians are concerned.
(www.newopticalillusions.com)

This redirecting and lying by way of political correctness leads to the mindless Group Think as a way of controlling the public. In this excerpt: ... A book authored by Janis, I. L. & Mann, L. (1977) Decision-making: A psychological analysis of conflict, choice, and commitment (New York Free Press), explores the concept of ‘Group Think.’ Eight symptoms of Group Think are listed below:

1. Illusion of Invulnerability: Members ignore obvious danger, take extreme risk, and are overly optimistic.
2. Collective Rationalization: Members discredit and explain away warning contrary to group thinking.
3. Illusion of Morality: Members believe their decisions are morally correct, ignoring the ethical consequences of their decisions.
4. Excessive Stereotyping: The group constructs negative stereotypes of rivals outside the group.
5. Pressure for Conformity: Members pressure any in the group who express arguments against the group's stereotypes, illusions, or commitments, viewing such opposition as disloyalty.
6. Self-Censorship: Members withhold their dissenting views and counter-arguments.
7. Illusion of Unanimity: Members perceive falsely that everyone agrees with the group's decision; silence is seen as consent.
8. Mind guards: Some members appoint themselves to the role of protecting the group from adverse information that might threaten group complacency.

Creepy, huh? The best cure for this disease is to remember what's right. Read, question, learn, and decide for yourself what you believe and what you know. Then act and live accordingly.

God bless the USA
