Occupy Wall Street and Terrorist

When groups such as the Black Panthers, AFL - CIO, SEIU, Acorn, the Communist Party, and people like George Soros, Van Jones, and Francis Fox Pivens, to name a few throw their support behind this so-called movement it is no wonder that Bill Ayers gets involved.

According to this article,  " Bill Ayers, the retired UIC professor and onetime household name, led a "teach-in" with the protesters. He detailed the tactics and history of the Civil Rights movement, drawing analogies to the group before him. "You created power where there was none," the famed agitator said."

According to this website, "In the late Sixties, Ayers became a leader of the Weather Underground (WU), a splinter faction of the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS). Characterizing WU as “an American Red Army,” Ayers summed up the organization's ideology as follows: “Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home, Kill your parents.” One of Ayers' fellow WU leaders was Bernardine Dohrn, the woman who would later become his wife."

"Ayers was an active participant in the 1969 “Days of Rage” riots in Chicago, which were led by WU's antecedent group, Weatherman. In the mayhem, nearly 300 members of the organization engaged in vandalism, arson, and vicious attacks against police and civilians alike. Their immediate objective was to spread their anti-war, anti-American message. Their long-term goal, however, was to cause the collapse of the United States and to create, in its stead, a new communist society over which they themselves would rule. With regard to those Americans who might refuse to embrace communism, Ayers and his comrades -- including Bernardine Dohrn, Mark Rudd, Linda Evans, Jeff Jones, and numerous others -- proposed that such resisters should be sent to reeducation camps and killed. The terrorists estimated that it would be necessary to eliminate some 25 million people in this fashion, so as to advance the revolution."

"All told, Ayers and the Weather Underground were responsible for 30 bombings aimed at destroying the defense and security infrastructures of the U.S.  "I don't regret setting bombs," said Ayers in 2001, "I feel we didn't do enough." Contemplating whether or not he might again use bombs against the U.S. sometime in the future, he wrote: “I can’t imagine entirely dismissing the possibility.”
Now comes this article, "Hey King Andrew and friends! It's time to tax the millionaires," the email begins, presumably referring to Gov. Cuomo. The subject line on the missive is "Time to kill the wealthy."

Are we in for an all out war on wealth?  From all the people and organizations that are involved with the "Occupation", it would not surprise me.  The left wing radicals are coming out in full force.

Problems with Social Secuirty

"Man living as an ‘adult baby’ is cleared of Social Security fraud"  Read the story here.  This story is just an example of why I have posted many times about us taking responsibility for ourselves.  This is why we should not rely on the government for anything.  I cannot understand how or why this man deserves SSI.  It is just beyond comprehension.

According to the article:

John Hart, a spokesman for Mr. Coburn, said Tuesday that the senator, who is also a medical doctor, is still puzzled by how “a grown man who is able to design and build adult-sized baby furniture is eligible for disability benefits.”

And, according to this article:

Of the approximately 2.8 million death reports the Social Security Administration receives per year, about 14,000 -- or one in every 200 deaths -- are incorrectly entered into its Death Master File, which contains the Social Security numbers, names, birth dates, death dates, zip codes and last-known residences of more than 87 million deceased Americans. That averages out to 38 life-altering mistakes a day.

This is what happens when the government gets involved and we allow the government to "take care of us".  This is why we have a crisis with Social Security.  This is why we need to be involved in what our government is doing.  This is the reason we need smaller government.  With smaller government WE can control what is happening with OUR tax dollars.  And this is the reason we must take responsibility for ourselves and our families.

Redistrubition of Wealth and a run on banks

Welcome to "Redistribution of Wealth".  The wall street protesters and Obama now have first hand experience on redistribution of wealth.

According to wikipedia:

Redistribution of wealth is the transfer of income, wealth or property from some individuals to others caused by a social mechanism such as taxation, monetary policies, welfare, nationalization, charity, divorce or tort law.^[1] Most often it refers to progressive redistribution, from the rich to the poor, although it may also refer to regressive redistribution, from the poor to the rich.

According to dictionary.com: Theft is defined as:

the act of stealing; the wrongful taking and carrying away of the personal goods or property of another; larceny.

I don't see much difference here. Redistribution of wealth is taking from the rich and giving to the poor.  While theft is someone poor taking from those more fortunate.  According to this article:

 A truck filled with President Obama's podiums and audio equipment was stolen in Henrico just days before his visit to Chesterfield.

According to this article:

Occupy Wall Street protesters said yesterday that packs of brazen crooks within their ranks have been robbing their fellow demonstrators blind, making off with pricey cameras, phones and laptops — and even a hefty bundle of donated cash and food.

Now, not only are the protesters calling for a run on banks, but, so are the politicians.  Makes me wonder if the politicians are hoping for another bank bailout.

According to this article:

In an effort to send a message to big banks, some organizers, who are supported by the protestors of the Occupy Wall Street movement, have organized an event to remove all funds from banks and into credit unions.

The date planned for this event is November 5, 2011.

According to this article:

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) doubled down on his anti-Wall Street rhetoric over the weekend, encouraging protesters to withdraw money from the major banks and calling the financial industry “the most powerful, dangerous and secretive” institution in the United States.

I agree, if you feel like your bank isn't working the way you like it to and you find another bank that is better, then switch banks.  That is your right and another one of the great things about this country.  We still have some control here on decision making.  How much longer we will be able to enjoy our right to choose is a question I cannot answer.

Wall Street protesters against greed

If you  watch and listen to the protesters on Wall Street and now all across the country, one of their main complaints is how the rich are greedy.  I find that to be hypocritical.  Aren't we all a little greedy?  Some more than others though.

Look at it this way.  We work, earn money and go out and buy things.  The more we buy the more we want.  When the latest gadget comes out, don't we want to go out and buy it whether we need it or not?  That is greed.

Definition of GREED

: a selfish and excessive desire for more of something (as money) than is needed

Many have made their fortunes by playing the stock market.  Well, so can the rest of us.  We can only achieve that by educating ourselves on how the stock market works and what are good investments.  Of course, you have to have money to invest in the stock market.  The best way to do that is work and save some money.

Unlike this person, we can be smarter.

Yes, it would be nice to have all the newest gadgets, but, ask yourself... do you really need it, or would you prefer to save your money and invest wisely?  We have the same opportunity as those who invest and make money via the stock market.  There are other opportunities to make money just like those "greedy" politicians, investors, and corporations.  Just learn how and do it.  That is what makes this country great.

If you think your politician is getting to "greedy"...vote them out!

Politicians love of Solar Power

After reading and hearing about Solyndra's going bankrupt after receiving a government loan, it got me to thinking.  Are there others, and if so how many?  Is Solar power as good as they say?

Let's take a look.  According to this article, "Republican lawmakers on two House committees are seeking details about the loans given to First Solar, SunPower Corp. and ProLogis. Of those three companies, troubling financial revelations have emerged about SunPower, which sponsored a solar project that received a $1.2 billion loan, more than twice the money approved for Solyndra, which filed for bankruptcy last month after receiving a $528 million loan."

"The company is also politically connected. Rep. George Miller's son is SunPower's top lobbyist. The elder Miller, a powerful California Democrat, toured the plant last October with Interior Secretary Ken Salazar, and reportedly said, "We've worked hard to make renewable energy a priority because it represents America's future economic growth."

 

According to this article, "The deals announced Friday include a $1.5 billion loan guarantee to Florida-based NextEra Energy and other investors that bought a planned 550-megawatt solar farm on federal land in Southern California from First Solar, as well as $646 million to Illinois-based Exelon Corp. for a 230-megawatt solar plant near Los Angeles. Next Era Energy Resources and GE Energy Financial Services bought the Desert Sunlight project from First Solar, while Exelon bought the Antelope Valley project. First Solar will continue to build and operate both projects.

A third project, worth $1.2 billion, will help San Jose-based SunPower Corp. build a 250-megawatt solar plant in California, while $1.4 billion will go San Francisco-based Prologis Inc. to support installation of about 750 solar rooftop panels in 28 states."

According to this article, "President Obama's nominee for Commerce secretary served as chairman of the board of a solar energy company that recently received a $1.37 billion federal loan guarantee – the largest the Department of Energy has ever given for a solar power project."

"Now that company, BrightSource Energy, is attempting to build the world's largest solar power plant amid concerns such ventures may be too risky an investment for the federal government."

In this article, "The Obama Administration is giving $737 million to a Tonopah Solar, a subsidiary of California-based SolarReserve. PCG is an investment partner with SolarReserve. Nancy Pelosi’s brother-in-law happens to be the number two man at PCG."

For as long as I can remember, Solar Power was suppose to be the best thing since sliced bread. How good is it?  Is putting solar panels on your house all there is to it?  Could it be that easy?  Well, if you look into it the answer is no.  There are many things like special batteries, an inverter, and a place to store those batteries, among other things.  This is not cheap.

I ran across this article, "In Italy last year, "they discovered that after one year in the field, over 90% of the (solar panels) from a one megawatt project began to delaminate and ended up on the ground."

That pretty much answered my question.  After all the years of trying to get us to purchase Solar Power, I can't help but think that if it were such a great thing for us, why isn't it more popular?  Well, I have my answer now.  It's no wonder the politicians like Solar Power.  Pay back to family and friends.

Apologist in Chief

I think it is absolutely the most insulting thing a "President" can do, is to apologize for things the American people feel we need not apologize for and insult the American citizen.  How many times is Obama going to apologize to other countries and cultures on our behalf. 

In this article, "The U.S. State Department made a phone call to the family of Al Qaeda propagandist Samir Khan to offer the government's condolences on his death during a U.S. drone strike in Yemen, a department spokesman confirms."

Hello Mr. President, Samir Khan was a member of Al Qaeda, who wants to KILL us.  Yes, he was an American Nationalized Citizen, but, he chose to go against America and chose the side of those who want us dead.

 

In this article, "Leaked cables show Japan nixed a presidential apology to Hiroshima and Nagasaki for using nukes to end the overseas contingency operation known as World War II."

This article lists the top 10 apologies Obama has made:

1. Apology to Europe: Speech in Strasbourg, France, April 3.

2. Apology to the Muslim world: Interview with Al Arabiya, January 27

3. Apology to the Summit of the Americas: Address to the Summit of the Americas, Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, April 17.

4. Apology at the G-20 Summit of World Leaders: News conference in London, April 2

5. Apology for the War on Terror: Speech in Washington, D.C., May 21

6. Apology for Guantanamo in France: Speech in Strasbourg, France, April 3.

7. Apology for America before the Turkish Parliament: Speech to the Turkish Parliament, Ankara, Turkey, April 6.

8. Apology for U.S. Policy toward the Americas: Editorial “Choosing a Better Future in the Americas,” April 16

9. Apology for the Mistakes of the CIA: Remarks to CIA employees at Langley, Va., April 29.

10. Apology for Guantanamo: Speech in Washington, D.C., May 21

I have a question for Obama.  When are you going to apologize to the American people?  If Obama feels the need to apologize, I think he should start here at home.  The American people are suffering, but, that seems to be exactly what he wants.  Mr. Obama, you are not God.  No one is perfect, even you Mr. Obama.  You owe US an apology for allowing this country to continue and escalate the problems Americans face today.  If you wanted us to have jobs and save our country, then get to the White House and do your job.  That is what we are paying you to do, not campaign all the time.

Christians under attack ..... again

The attacks on Christians keep coming.  According to this article, "President Barack Obama's Justice Department asked the Supreme Court last week to give the federal government the power to tell a church who its ministers will be."

How far will this Campaigner in Chief go to extinguish Christianity.  You may remember that they have already attacked Crosses being placed at Veterans Cemeteries, even going as far as to stop anyone from saying "God Bless you" when you sneeze.  I think it is ironic that they use the excuse of "Separation of Church and State", yet, here they are telling this Church who they can hire to teach their children.

According to the First Amendment, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances"  If the Supreme Court rules in favor of the DOJ how will that affect the rest of us?  Our government already has their hands in almost everything we do.

It is interesting how the administration uses the "Separation of Church and State" to attack Christians, but, they won't hesitate to back a Muslim Mosque to be built close to Ground Zero.  Many people have questioned Obama's religious beliefs and I think the questions are justified.

Obama is laying the structure for something.  Looking at all he has done to destroy this country is unsettling.  George Soros wants a "New World Order" and he is helping to finance the Occupy Wall street movement.  In my opinion, Obama is obliging George Soros who is an atheist. 

According to this article, "George Soros is a Hungarian-American financier, businessman and notable philanthropist focused on supporting liberal ideals and causes. He became known as "the Man Who Broke the Bank of England" after he made a reported $1 billion during the 1992 Black Wednesday UK currency crises. Soros had correctly anticipated that the British government would have to devalue the pound sterling."  George Soros has done this many times.

"The bulk of his enormous winnings is now devoted to encouraging transitional and emerging nations to become 'open societies,' open not only in the sense of freedom of commerce but—more important—tolerant of new ideas and different modes of thinking and behavior."

What will a New World Oder look like?  It's hard to say, but, I would venture to say it's goodbye to our Constitution, our freedoms, our liberties, and life as we know it.
