Obama Should Fail

Below is my response to the Democrats attempt to silence Rush Limbaugh.

Obama should fail. His policies will enslave the American people if he succeeds. You democrats simply do not understand freedom. Government should leave us alone and allow us to pursue life, liberty, and happiness without governing every aspect of our lives.

Your taxes, environmental polices, and entitlement programs will destroy this country. Are you so stupid as to actually believe that the solution to our problems is more regulation and oppression when it is that regulation and oppression that created our problems in the first place?

You are not fooling everyone. Many of us understand your game of creating problems, blaming the spineless Republicans for those problems, and then saving the world from those problems. Stop legislating and our problems and go away. YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.

Rush Limbaugh and others like him will never be silenced. No matter how much you try to destroy freedom in this country, you will fail.

Your Gestapo tactics at silencing the opposition like Rush will backfire on you. You will have only yourselves to blame when another Ronald Reagan emerges from the ashes of the destruction you cause.

Obama will fail and this country will be better off when he does.

Power to the People!!!

Saving energy is ludicrous. In a stupid effort to go green, for example, Great Britain has already banned 100 watt incandescent light bulbs and the plazma TV.

Let me say this as clearly as I can. We should not be working so hard to save energy. Saving energy allows government to pass oppressive and expensive laws which effectively control every aspect of your life in one way or another. They will decide if you can have light and then how much and when you can have it. They will decide how large your refrigerator will be if they allow you to own one at all. And they will decide how much air conditioning (if any) you will get in the summer and how much heat (if any) you will get in the winter. My advice -- buy a sweater.

The answer to an energy shortage is so much easier that saving energy anyway. Simply produce more energy. But not government. People. If more people had privately owned power sources all energy shortages would be solved. Power would flow cheaper and easier than it does now and no one could control your power usage except for you.

An average household could meet all its needs and more with solar and wind power if the government would allow it. We would be free from the grid, free from government control of our power usage amount, and free from someone else dictating the types of devices we could use.

A government is a dictatorship when it oppresses the people with ridiculous laws aimed at a problem the government itself created when a better, cheaper, and less oppressive solution is available. As long as government controls your energy they control you.

Welcome to the dark ages.

Consumer Safety = Consumer Oppression

As of February 10, 2009 you will no longer be able to buy used or inexpensive toys or clothing. Deseret Industries and the Salvation Army Thrift Stores are effectively dead. Watch for eBay sellers to be criminally prosecuted too. Civil penalties are $100,000 per violation with criminal fines also available. Violators can also expect up to five years in prison and forfeiture of their assets even if they were not aware of the violations.

The reason for this outrageous oppression is that the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act will be in place and bans the sale of anything that is for children that has not been extensively tested for lead. The ban includes even wood and other natural products that cannot possibly contain lead.

Read this article to see just how far this ludicrous law goes.

The only way to comply with the law is to test the products or target the products for adults. Expect your action figures to either cost ten times their current price, disappear completely, or to come with removable genitals to avoid the testing requirement.

Personally, I am really excited to see whether or not the LDS Church closes every Deseret Industries in the country or whether they operate in violation of this new law. My guess is that by February 10th there will be exceptions in place so the Church can avoid the issue but I will be watching closely either way.

Hillary's Appointment to Secretary of State is Illegal

According to the media and your Congress Hillary can serve as Secretary of State even though the United States Constitution says she can't.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081211/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/clinton_pay

I have said it before and I will say it again, the Constitution is not hanging by a thread. IT IS DEAD. The Emoluments Clause prevents Hillary from serving. Period. Congress justifies ignoring the Constitution on the grounds that they lowered Clinton's pay. That is not what the Constitution says. It completely bars her.

The Media love this blatant violation. Notice that the headline of the attached article redirects your attention from the illegality of the appointment to her salary amount. They totally gloss over the illegality of Congress' action. Then, in the text they call the Emoluments Clause "obscure" as if that somehow means it doesn't count.

Reagan refused to appoint Orrin Hatch to the Supreme Court based on the Emoluments Clause. He understood and upheld the Constitution. Plus, he probably knew Hatch was a power hungry bonehead, but I digress.

Apparently no one else cares about that irritating Constitution. Why don't we just burn the damn thing already? Its ashes won't have any less meaning that its now "obscure" and totally meaningless words.
