Barry Hussein’s War On America; Homefront Edition.

Everywhere we look we see tangible evidence of the depredations of Barry MaoBama Hussein and his Marxist brethren. Actually, it’s difficult at times to ascertain just exactly whose drummer Obama is stepping lightly to. We can see the tangible results of his masterful foreign policy. Mr. Apology is working overtime to placate a bunch of seventh century tribal savages, while his rules of engagement are ensuring that more of our Marines and soldiers are being killed for no reason other than his ineptitude… or his malice. Take your pick.



He sure looks, speaks and behaves like a man with an agenda. It’s blatantly evident to just about anyone, except the committed Kool-Aid crowd, that it’s not America’s agenda. With everyone’s attention pretty much locked onto the circular firing squads representing the race for the Republican nomination, most of Mr Obama’s very real liabilities are being swept under the rug.

The ‘State Of The Union’, in a word, stinks. Obama’s intentional assault on the economy of this country is so target rich I scarcely know where to start. A bit of advice to the Republican presidential hopefuls, though… if you can tear yourselves away from venues specifically set by liberals of the Lame Stream Media. They’ve proven themselves a hundred times over to be no more than mouthpieces for Barack Hussein and his cabal of Marxist loons. You might find it productive to take the attacks to Barack Obama, where they belong.

It boggles the mind to consider that Republicans are stupid enough to allow the left to control and dictate the very substance of our primary candidate debates. This is just what we’ve been talking about all along. It’s what the 2010 elections were all about. We, as conservatives, are totally fed up with the depredations of the DeMarxists and, as the Tea Party Patriot driven Republican sweep of the election showed, fully 70% of America agreed. Far more than that though… it reinforced the revulsion most of us felt for the perpetually erroneous plans and schemes of the establishment Republicans.

So, here we are again. Only this time our very freedoms are on the table. Ronald Reagan didn’t play the Lame Stream game with the DeMarxists or the establishment Repubics. In fact, the establishment did everything in its power to destroy Reagan… and failed. They failed because he refused to pander to the media, heavily left-leaning even at that time. He carried his message directly to the American people… and we responded. The message of conservatism resonates through all of the liberal bleating, lies and obfuscation, each and every time.

Keep in mind that Reagan did not have a ‘new media’ to carry and spread his message. The Lame Stream Media has not only lost vast numbers of its audience, it has lost virtually all credibility and the ratings show it. Why do we allow them and the weak-kneed, linguine-spined establishment Republicans to set our, or any, agenda for that matter? Take your message to the people. We of the new conservative media will carry that message.

Obama’s constant mantra of tax, tax, tax… steal from the ‘rich’ and give to the indolent, the shiftless and the ne’er-do-wells of our society. His constant assault on every single facet of our economy should, in plain language, scare the hell out of every American.

It’s time to hit the trenches again. Take your conservative ideas and principles with you wherever you go… to your neighbors, at the market, at work. It’s American conservatism on the march. Once again, if you don’t know where to go or what to do, contact your local Tea Party Patriots. You’ll find a totally welcoming group of people with but one agenda… America’s.

MaoBama And the Grand Shell Game.

I once watched a couple of confidence men do a shakedown using walnut shells. They were slick… and evilly dishonest. Even at my young age (ninth grade) I was able to recognize the scam. Some of my friends were all about jumping in and betting on a ‘sure thing’… and they got fleeced right along with the con-men’s original ‘marks’.



It was a valuable lesson I was never to forget. My natural skepticism was reinforced by the earthy realism of my grandparents, who were grounded in experience garnered during two world wars with a worldwide depression thrown in for garnish. The message was always the same. If it sounds too good to be true, it is. So, like the con-men in my youth, the ‘Mark’ has to convince himself that the confidence game is reality.

It’s unfortunate that there’s something in the human psyche that leads some of us to seek an ‘easier, softer way’. These individuals are seen as the legitimate prey of those who would take advantage of ill-informed or uneducated people for the acquisition of personal power and wealth. Often, the victims of these crimes have to have a willingness to dismiss the evidence of their own senses.

We are witnessing the greatest shell game in history. The left has been on the march to totalitarianism since Friedrich Engels abandoned the teachings of his upper-middle class parents and the protestant church. His atheistic views alarmed his strongly Methodist parents to the point where his mother wrote him a letter in 1848, telling him that ‘He had gone too far’. This was the year Engels was to collaborate with Marx in creating the ‘Communist Manifesto’. Marx was another zealot ‘child of privilege’, convinced that they had a mandate to change the world in their image. The nineteenth and twentieth centuries were rife with such fanatical zealotry and we have had two world wars, the Korean War, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan to prove it.

For my part, there’s not a bad nickel’s worth of difference between the Marxist, Leninist, Saul Alinsky philosophy being preached by MaoBama and the cabal of looney-tunes he has surrounded himself with… and the even more pernicious Islamo-fascist dream of a worldwide sharia-driven caliphate, in which our first (and last) Muslim president pictures himself as the long awaited Mahdi who will arise from the flames of world-wide chaos to lead the masses to Nirvana. It’s the shell game on a universal game board. You’ll never find the pea and there is never a payoff… only grinding penury and hopelessness.

There is no more important task before us, as American patriots, than the complete and total defeat of Barack Hussein Obama and his allies, regardless of what side of the globe they come from.
Unite with us in this historical effort.

Onward Christian Soldiers!

As our friend Matt Drudge would say… developing. Sorry, Matt, I don’t have that kind of patience. Somewhere between 60 and 76 per cent of Americans identify themselves as ‘Christian’. There’s another 2.1 per cent of the population that are Jewish. Together, we comprise the largest Judeo-Christian nation in the world. We also represent the largest voting demographic in the nation. You wouldn’t know it by the way we act sometimes, but it’s a fact nonetheless.



Obama has stirred up a veritable fire-ants’ nest of opposition from the country’s Christians, Jews, and not a few Hindus and Muslims as well, according to reports. It’s good to see these disparate churches standing up and speaking out. At long last, some in the religious community are beginning to see what we’ve been warning them about… An assault on the first amendment for one is an assault on all.

One of the most obvious and telling effects among the religious community is the reaction of ‘socially conscious’ so-called progressive Catholics. These Catholics voted in large numbers for the ‘Anointed One’ in 2008. Conservative groups polling these folks find them splitting away from Obama as the Maoist’s threat to the mother church has been revealed.

America’s Jews, on the other hand, many illogically liberal to their core, have been experiencing buyer’s remorse, with the chilling realization that Obama’s ‘support’ for the Jewish homeland reads more like another unlamented dictator’s run-up to Kristallnacht in 1938 Germany. The similarities between the tactics of our wannabe Mahdi president and those of the German dictator are enough to send a chill through any historian.

Another ancillary benefit of MaoBama’s assault on the church is that, seemingly, the ‘shock treatment’ has shaken America’s cardinals and bishops out of their political stupor. It’s about time they got some serious backbone. Obama’s plans for their church are every bit as dire as they are for his presiding, along with his Muslim buddies, over the destruction of Israel.

Obama’s ‘gandy dance’ shifting of his abortion mandate away from the Catholic institutions and on to the nation’s insurance carriers hasn’t worked. With his overbearing arrogance, he has overlooked the fact that, in his rush to consolidate absolute power over the citizens of America, he has become increasingly visible to Americans who wouldn’t normally be paying attention to the upcoming presidential race for months yet. I credit the efforts of the Tea Party Patriots out in the communities with that.

Never before have we witnessed more patently unconstitutional behavior in a chief executive. It’s vast in its illegality and its over reach.

Does this mean it’s over for MaoBama and his DeMarxists? Okay, I won’t insult your intelligence. Of course it doesn’t. He still has to be beaten at the polling places… out in the communities… out in the cities, villages and towns of America. Forget the primary… it will be either Santorum, whom I am now favoring, or Romney. Paul was always a non sequitur, despite the fanaticism of his few supporters. Lastly, I don’t think Newt can resurrect himself again. People would be wondering not if he were going to go off message, but when. Above all, Conservatives want stability in a leader, especially in these very dangerous times. The American nation must unite at the ballot box to defeat Barack Hussein Obama and his goons.

I don’t think it’s going to go to a brokered convention. I think that’s most likely a fragrant herring being put out by some establishment operatives, because no sooner than they bleated about the possibility of the Republican convention being brokered, than the same sources sort of timidly floated a balloon saying it may present an opportunity for Jeb Bush to rush in and save the party.
Umm… I don’t know about the rest of you guys out there, but I think we’ve seen quite enough of the Bush’s for, let’s say… another decade or so.

Regardless of who the nominee is, Obama is going to face an immensely peed electorate that is much, much better educated about the activities of Barry Hussein and his lawless regime than in 2008.

Romney Can’t Articulate A Message To Beat MaoBama.

Why is that Republicans and far, far too many people who lay a claim to conservatism just can’t see that Mr Milquetoast Romney is just another in a long line of failures engineered by the establishment Repubics. While Romney is holding forth with vapid generalities, which incidentally seem to have been the hallmark of his political career, Obama is honing his carving knife getting ready to fillet Mr Milquetoast over his Romneycare which is, as has been faithfully reported, the template for MaoBama’s slave-state.



Then there’s the entire shopping list of Mitt Romney’s left-of-center propensities. Everyone seems to have given Romney a pass on his totally liberal stand on most issues. This is a graphic illustration of the ‘blinders’ that seem to be standard issue for the Repubics of the Rockefeller, Ford, Dole, Bush, Rove wing of the Republican Party. While we’re at it, let us not forget that awe-inspiring failure John McCain, another entitlement pick of the Beltway entrenched establishment.

I can vividly recall realizing my disappointment when my misgivings about George W. Bush were realized. I, like many other American conservatives, knew he was anything but conservative… but hoped for the best even when we saw Bush presiding over an out-of-control big government Congress who was doing its best to outspend any liberal government. Earmarks and government largesse were falling like rain.

It’s sad that no matter how many times the Repubics (thanks, Mark Levin) get their clocks cleaned the same way, by the same liberals, doing the same damn thing over and again, they just can’t make the intellectual leap that conservative principles work. Each and every time they are employed they resonate with the American people who are, by nature, conservative.

So now we’re full circle, with Mr Milquetoast as our ‘presumptive’ nominee. His list of ‘moderate’ qualifications would gladden the heart of any liberal. Zbigniew Mazurak, writing in the American Spectator, made this telling statement, “Mitt Romney is nothing more than a strident liberal masquerading as a conservative”.

The list of Romney flips is impressive… if you’re a liberal. He was a registered Democrat who supported Paul Tsongas in 1992. He was stridently pro-abortion. How many murders of the unborn did you preside over, Mitt? His support of the second amendment is wishy-washy at best. He’s a believer in anthropogenic global warming. Puts him right there with the green communists… how cozy. The list goes on and on. Needless to say, Romneycare is right at the top of the list and is the harpoon with which Obama will end his presidential aspirations.

The glaring realization that, once again, we have a moderate to liberal Republican running is disheartening in the extreme. It ain’t over ’til it’s over, but if Americans fall for this same bullbleep routine again it’s going to have only one result… another four years of Obama and his Maoist governance and sadly, just possibly, the end of freedom in the United States.

Where’s The Tea Party? Try South Carolina.

If I were psychic I couldn’t have made a better call. I make no metaphysical claims… quite the contrary. Ever since the 2010 elections, the Republicrats and the Lame Stream lap dogs of the Obama regime have been at great pains to convince us, convince you, that we were an aberration, a momentary phenomenon, a freak of nature. We would soon be absorbed into the Republican establishment, which would once again rule all of us rubes with wisdom… nay, true sagacity.



We talked at great length about Mitt Romney and the central and overriding fact that he is a big government Republican in the establishment mold. Worse yet, he’s moderate to liberal on most issues that really matter to fully 60% of the citizens of this country that consider themselves to be conservative.

That’s the one thing that Mitt Romney is not. No matter what the repeated battery from his PACs… those unaccountable political garbage grinders behind which Mr. Milquetoast can hide, while devastating anyone who is perceived as a threat to his vanilla Republicrat candidacy. Ask Herman Cain.

Romney’s all-too-cute destruction of Herman Cain’s candidacy with a (most likely) ‘paid’ bimbo eruption, during which not a single one of the supposed victims could articulate anything remotely connecting Herman to any impropriety, other than one very vague generalization of making one ‘lady’ uncomfortable. The one direct charge of an extended extramarital affair by another turned out to be just so much more opportunism by a bought-and-paid-for bimbo. Nonetheless, it had the desired effect, as Herman withdrew from the 2012 presidential race rather than have his family dragged through the filth generated by the Romney PAC. This may prove to be the lynch pin to end Romney’s presidential pretentions.

Newt Gingrich is a flawed human, as are we all. He’s made some serious mistakes in attacking Bain Capital, giving the impression of anti-capitalism which the Romnites and the leftist press have been quick to take advantage of. Fact: Bain Capital did raid several companies, resulting in their bankruptcy. But Newt Gingrich is no anti-capitalist. He led the Reagan ‘revolution’, bringing fiscal sanity to the lefty mess left by ‘Jimma Cata’. None other than Nancy Reagan herself was generous in her praise of Newt’s efforts and his unwavering support for the Reagan Conservative Revolution. Putting the lie to another of the Romney PACs whole-cloth prevarications.

Florida is being touted by the leftist press and the Romney team (et al) as the end of the campaign. That’s it, it’s in the bag. That presumptive thing fostered by the ever shifty RNC establishment again. Um… gee whiz, it’s those pesky Tea Party guys again. Romney was supposed to be nine points ahead in Florida as of yesterday. I’m not so sure. There have been many Tea Party types who, disgusted with the savaging of Herman Cain, have been waiting out on the sidelines and are beginning to stir in huge numbers with Herman Cain’s surprise endorsement of Newt Gingrich.

Herman Cain stood a darn good chance of capturing the Republican nomination, which is why he had to be destroyed. I’ll tell you what must be giving not only Romney but MaoBama himself hives… the thought of a Gingrich candidacy in which he drafts Herman Cain as his running mate. Talk about a living nightmare for the communist regime of our wannabe Mahdi President Barack Hussein Obama and the febrile establishment Repubics (thanks, Mark Levin).

The South Carolina Tea Party Patriots fired the first shot. It won’t be the last.

Walking Into The Back Blast.

A ‘back blast’ is the blast cone behind certain weapons that utilize the back blast to minimize recoil. ‘Walking into your own back blast’ is a term for just plain stupidity. When I was in the Marine Corps, walking behind a 106 recoilless rifle would get you dead if you were close, or just knock you on your ass and maybe blow out your eardrums from about 15 to 30 feet away. Not a smart move.



ABC and, by association, all of the DNC/Administration surrogates of the Lame Stream press may have stepped in it with the brazenly timed, extremely shallow interview with Newt Gingrich’s ex-wife of some eighteen years, Marianne. Naturally, as with all of these DeMarxist straw horses, they posit all of these things as fact when, in fact, almost all of these Marxist publicity stunts turn out to have back stories they aren’t anxious to have see the light of day.

Marianne has given several interviews along the same lines over the years. I’m not going to say she is an embittered, spiteful woman venting her spleen once again. However, you have to question the very fact that she agreed to the interview in the first place with a network who, at the behest of their Marxist masters, timed the interview at the precise moment that, in their sick judgment, gave them the best chance of destroying Newt Gingrich… just as he rightly begins to surge in North Carolina.

All of us know divorced people… it’s a sad commentary on our times. Many of us also have friends on both sides of these broken marriages, and it seems like there’s always one who, for whatever reason, can never let go and move on with their lives. Marianne strikes me as this type of person, given her history of willingness to hang out the family laundry. Now we find out that the network stalked her for a couple of months… bottom feeding their way to a smear on Newt?

Enter the back blast. The aforementioned bottom feeders have brutally excoriated Conservative after Conservative, in their desperate need to defend the indefensible Barack Obama. Part of that is our own fault. The self-proclaimed, non-existent Republican establishment has been working in full time overdrive to convince the nation of the inevitability of their milquetoast moderate Mitt Romney, arguably the author of Obamacare with his Massachusetts Romneycare which, of and by itself, gives all Conservatives serious pause.

Hang on to your hats, folks. Newt has a damned good chance of winning South Carolina and his message is beginning to resonate across the country. The backlash which is hitting the Lame Stream Media is more than richly deserved. The sheer volume of lies and prevarication, with which they have attempted to suborn the truth for their Marxist masters, has finally reached the tipping point. They may have propelled the one guy to victory that they absolutely, unequivocally don’t want to run against their welfare state boss… not only in South Carolina but in the Republican primaries as a whole.

I like Newt’s fire and the intense focus he brings to the critical issues facing this nation. We need a fighter and not a milquetoast hack like Mitt Romney, constantly parroting the establishment line. Rick Santorum is a nice guy with solid Conservative values, but he’s not the guy for this time and this place.

Remember, the aim is the destruction of Barack Hussein Obama and his entire regime. Just like Newt said… “I want to knock him out”.

It’s Playoff Time.

I’m not a sportswriter… and it’s a far cry from politics to the gridiron… but yesterday witnessed the re-emergence of one of the truly preeminent football franchises in the history of the sport.

The San Francisco 49ers, Alex Smith and their no-nonsense head coach Jim Harbaugh, pulled off what may be the most remarkable finish to win a division playoff game in recent memory… possibly since 1981. Then, it was Joe Montana to Dwight Clark in what came to be known as ‘The Catch’.



This football franchise has seen its share of remarkable moments. The image of Terrell Owens at the goal line, snagging a last minute pass from Steve Young in the last three seconds of the 1999 NFC wild-card playoff game against the Packers at ‘The Stick’, is still fresh in the 49er faithfuls’ minds as the ‘The Catch 2′.

There can be no greater indication of the ‘new’ 49ers resurgence than the fans in Candlestick Park. The old place really rocked… you could hear the roar from miles away on the wind. The 49ers are back… and that ‘old’ stadium which has seen so many great 49ers teams over the years has, at least temporarily, a new lease on life.

It’s the ‘Niners’ at ‘The Stick’, and nothing can be better. Gone, for the moment, is the conflict over San Francisco losing the Niners to a monstrously politically-motivated boondoggle down in Santa Clara. The citizens of Santa Clara are about to be fleeced for well over a billion dollars they don’t have and can’t make up, no matter what the pols or the ‘experts’ say.

I love the San Francisco Forty Niners as only a native can, but that new stadium deal stinks to high heaven. It’s ‘new’ green technology is strongly reminiscent of another liberal boondoggle nearby; anyone remember Solyndra? Apparently, the EPA has its long nose in the mix here as well. That cannot bode well for the citizens of Santa Clara county. Wherever the EPA goes, economic conditions go with them… downhill.

I can’t blame the Forty Niners organization. They are, after all, a business and their owners reasonably expect to show a profit (oh no!… not the awful profit word). But there’s a much bigger story here.

There’s a double-edged sword and it’s called jobs. Santa Clara is home to some of the most dynamic and profitable businesses here in the erstwhile Golden State. It’s also home to the exodus of many of the state’s most wealthy and successful citizens. Governor Jerry ‘Moonbeam’ Brown’s malgovernance has caught up with him… his backdoor regulation, taxation and ‘proposed’ tax increases on the ‘wealthiest’ Californians have really opened the flood gates to people voting with their feet, and incidentally taking their money, their companies and their ‘brain trust’ with them, to business friendly states where fiscal sanity rules and ‘profit’ is not an evil word.

San Francisco is, if anything, in far worse shape than California as a whole. Liberal governance has that effect no matter where it is practiced. But, for all its kinky quirkiness, the City by the Bay can unite and agree on one thing… the San Francisco Forty Niners are the real deal, and we’ll see you next Sunday at ‘The Stick’.
