I Must Have Missed The Bad News…

Remember the “Good Old Days”, the daily reports of just how much the American people “Disapproved of President Bush”, his “Cowboy” diplomacy, and don’t forget their unabashed, vitriolic hatred of V.P. Cheney. Well, it must be that the MSM aka “Lame Stream Media” got religion and are now kinder and gentler as a result of their worship at the feet of the Great and Powerful OzBama…
Otherwise, how would we explain their lack of reporting on BHO loosing his appeal to Americans, (word is still out from the “Citizens of the World”) and the increase in America’s Disapproval of him.

The brave folks at Gallup offer the following graph of this apparently unimportant “News”.

Remember Why The Colonists Left England…Freedom

The Massachusetts Body of Liberties
(1641)

[The Massachusetts “Body of Liberties,” the first code of laws established in New England, was compiled by Nathaniel Ward (c. 1578–1652) a leading English Puritan minister, who had been trained as a lawyer. He came to the colony in 1634, and was for a time pastor at Ipswich. The “Liberties” were established by the Massachusetts General Court in December, 1641.]

Imagine If Pres. Bush Said…

“So I have known Christianity on three continents before coming to the region where it was first revealed. That experience guides my conviction that partnership between America and Christians must be based on what Christianity is, not what it isn’t. And I consider it part of my responsibility as President of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Christianity wherever they appear.”

Yet, when the Defender in Chief  utters the following in Cairo this morning:

So I have known Islam on three continents before coming to the region where it was first revealed. That experience guides my conviction that partnership between America and Islam must be based on what Islam is, not what it isn’t. And I consider it part of my responsibility as President of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear.

I just am amazed at the Double Standard that exists…

And in case you thought that you were not paying attention to the Oath that Barack Hussein Obama took on 1/20/09… Here it is:

“I, Barack Hussein Obama, do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the office of the President of the United States, and I will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

I missed that part about Defending Islam Stereotypes…

NOTE: A wise friend of mine offered this interpretation… By claiming America’s alliance with the moderate Islam elements, he has essentially told Iran, we (and Israel) are justified in what we will be doing to you when you cross the line in the sand (as it were).  I hope that is the case, and I pray that the Obama State Department has that level of insight to actually mean what my friend has concluded.

GM Ownership… His Idea?

Just a thought, but once he sat in “The Beast”…It was only a matter of time…

General Motors New Mr. GoodWrench

So, we are now 60% owners in the “New GM”. (I heard that Former President Clinton and some other private investors just bought Hummer, but that has not been conformed.)

It was said 50 years ago, by then-General Motors President Charles Wilson reportedly said “What’s good for General Motors is good for the country.” Back in the day, that probably was correct. But what is going on now is far from that.  I would argue it is bad for both America and General Motors in that we have overstepped the role of government (my high school U.S. History class definition was the following: “Government exists to provide for its citizens the services that they can not provide for themselves such as Security from foreign enemies, and the rule of law…”) nowhere do I recall taking over major industry and nationalizing private companies.  With the actions previously in the Chrysler bailout, and this latest action with GM, coupled with the TRILLIONS of dollars spent on other bail-outs of industries that were “too big to fail” we are on the road to Government Running Industries and Manufacturing…Seems that we called that Socialism back in High School…Now it’s called “Hope & Change” or is it “Hope & Change My Oil”?

I liked the way it use to be, when we could drive cars that we decided to buy because we liked the way they looked, not because the Government said we needed them, I could Barbecue out side without a moonbat lecturing me about my carbon footprint and the damage I was doing to the Polar Bears…I want my country back….
