Family Guy - Repulsive and Totally Disgusting

They are the scum of the earth, the ones who are without a real life - they prey on the helpless and bring disgrace to our Nation.  Such is the animated cartoon created by '"Family Guy,"  36 year old Seth MacFarlane, which makes fun of Sarah's special needs child.  I'm sad to think that FOX would participate or approve of Seth's disgraceful behavior.  At the same time, there is a song online about "special needs" children that is laced with contempt for the less fortunate. 
 
Who were the "dirt bags" who wrote the song referring to special needs children - it is more than disgusting; its sick!  There is no humor in this song - it reaks of evil intent and whom ever wrote this will have a day of reckoning!   Can't explain this phenomenum, but whatever goes around comes around, need I say more. 
 
Our special needs children are gifts from "God" and the famillies who are graced with this child are truely blessed.  Thousands of these "special needs children" live in our United States and each one deserves respect, love and special attention.  To Seth and those at "Family Guy," I have but one more comment and it's one that you carry in your hearts the remainder of your lifetime. 
 
“Jesus said, ‘Whatever you have done to the least of these my brothers, you have done to me.’

To President Obama

Don't suppose you'd want to stand on the White House steps and chat awhile, President Obama; but as a grandmother of seven beautiful angels it would please me if you'd take 30 minutes just for this grandmother.  My reason for asking for this special visit isn't to bash, smash or make fun of anyone - it's merely because I care about my country, my children, grandchildren and fellow Americans.
 
Look at it this way, sometimes it's best not to put people like myself on the ancient history shelf even tho I'm 70 years old - it doesn't look good for you or your Administration.  The other thing is I would be a great one to represent millions of Americans, because I am one of them, I get in the trenches with them daily - 2 family members have lost their jobs and the third one will be dismissed sometime in March.  One of my children had their home repossessed (we fought for a year to keep her home) and she's a single mother of three. 
 
I'm familiar with what has occurred in 2009, because I've been living it for 365 days; I would come to the table with a few very common solutions and ask you to help implement them.  Don't tell me you're too busy for a fellow American, that won't sit very well with many who will read this article.  You've taken vacations, you've gone to Copenhagen and traveled alot abroad this year; this visit won't cost you anything, I'll come to you (the cost of the trip will be my responsibility entirely.)
 
President Obama, here's one of your quotes, ""If we aren't willing to pay a price for our values, then we should ask ourselves whether we truly believe in them at all."  I'm more than willing to pay the price, just email me at anniewood1@netzero.net  and tell me what day and don't forget the time.  Thanks for your time, President Obama
 
May God Bless America

A Frame of Mind

Today was a time that was spent reading emails, surfing all the newstations, reading editorials and last but not least reading comments from my fellow Americans.  Either America is divided into two different mentalities or we have a group of people who just jump on anyones' bandwagon as long as its headline is "Change."
 
After you read a few excerpts from the Washington Post, you'll be clicking along with me on the same channel.  A young man Ezra Klein submitted his best piece of journalism, at least Ezra was proud of it.  Yes, we have freedom of speech but along with that our generation must consider doing their homework before making irrational comments.  Anyway, here's what Ezra has to say about the "stimulus package of 2009. " 
 
"They all estimate that the bill has added 1.6 million to 1.8 million jobs so far and that its ultimate impact will be roughly 2.5 million jobs. The Congressional Budget Office, an independent agency, considers these estimates to be conservative."  Where in the world has Ezra been all of my life?  How could an intelligent young man come up with such ridiculous figures?  Washington Post, Ezra Klein, February 17th, 2010.  Mr. Obama and Gang, including VP Biden are still attempting to jam false figures down our throats!
 
Let's step back and look at my state, Arizona.  Businesses are closing their doors, unemployment (actual unemployment is close to the 20% mark), thousands of homes are being foreclosed, many of our school districts don't have enough money to get thru 2010 and our dirty laundry list just keeps growing. 
 
The shame is how did some of our Americans step off the boat on the wrong foot - they're smart, intelligent and need to quit playing "change" and get real.  This isn't about Republicans, Democrats or whomever;  it's about a Nation who is so deeply in debt no one really knows how or when we can reduce our debt.  It's about a Nation who has children in the streets with their parents - Mesa Arizona and other communities have many, many families living out of their vehicles. 
 
So to those who pretend to be journalists, bloggers or communicators, take time to research both sides of the story, don't just start surfing around on the Internet and pick up any old thing to write about (unless you know beyond a shadow of a doubt you're writing the truth.)
 
America needs positive input from all ages, we need our voice back, we need to restore our Nation to its once strong foundation.  We need real jobs (not just part time jobs paying minimum wage.)  Most of all we need, brave, honest and resourceful men and women in the White House.  May God Bless America

How Did We Get Here?

Today as I'm reading news, listening to those who are actually foreigners to me and trying to make some sense out of out present Administration, it occurred to me that we can't fix a problem if we don't have all of the facts.  So I ask those who are called Liberalists, Socialists, Left Wingers or disgruntled Americans to step forward with some real information that we can understand. 
 
Do you really believe in big government, being owned by the government and higher taxes for all of us who work hard daily trying to pay for a home, educate our children and yes, trying desparately to live a good life (the American life which was give to us by "God" and some wise men called our "forefathers?"  Do you really think that we owe a living to those who opt to sit in their lazy boy and draw a paycheck from us? 
 
What is it that we believe in that gets your trousers ruffled?  What are we doing that triggers your anger?  Why do you hate us?  It takes more than words to inspire us!  We, the American people need some substance brought to the table - it's beyond a "He said, she said" attititude.  What are you really doing for your country?  What are the things you really care about in 2010?  If you're planning on a repeat of 2009, we must decline your invitation. 
 
Where do you see your children and grandchildren in 2020?  Do you want them so encumbered with taxes, laws and all the rest of the parfanallia that they can't live in a country that was once called the "land of the free?"  Where are you headed, what do you really think?  It's time to bring real solutions to the table, because all of this "Crap and gibberish" really doesn't make sense! 
 
A perfect example of the mindset of your people would be last night on "Hannity" when a young women who obviously hates Sarah Palin stuttered and stamered around trying to convince us that Sarah just wasn't going to cut it.   One would think after this young women tried desperately to denounce Sarah that we were in dire danger from the former governor of Alaska and yet when you listened to her feeble explanations to "Hannity," it appears that she was using the "female card" as a legitimate excuse. 
 
So what is it about "Sarah" you don't like?  Is it because she likes to hunt elk or moose or whatever?  Is it because she has a daughter who slipped a little? Or is it because Sarah is trying to get Americans to stand up for their Nation and their children and regain their voice.  What is there to be afraid of when you have a "fellow American" standing toe to toe with those who wish our country harm? 
 
Another recent example and I do mean recent is "Colmes" website clapping their hands that they made our Olympian remove his support for our troops from his helmet.  Very seldom, do I leave a website to check out on my blogs:  http://www.alan.com/  but it's a perfect example of the meddlers and peddlers whoever "they" may be...   America, we're so far out in outer space, we are allowing this obvious support for our troops to be qualified as "Political Propagand!" 
 
Alan Colmes, is your obvious disdain for our troops something you can be proud of or is it a mere statement showing you and your cohorts are in control (whatever that means) regardless of the harm it does to our brave "men and women" who fight for our freedoms, our safety and who are willing to stand up for America.  Shame on you - our 5 branches of the military are the reason we can get up in the morning, have a leisurely cup of coffee, hang out with our families and have the luxury of smelling the "roses." 
 
Alan, they are the reason that you have this freedom of speech, freedom to do whatever on your website, freedom to take a pot shot at our Olympian and our troops.  So this grandmother say, "May God Bless Our Nation and Our Brave Men and Women" who keep our country safe.

Last of the Die Hards

America, here is an example of what our Nation doesn't need.  Katie Couric, who was once highly touted has fallen to the lower ranks of journalism.  Katie works for CBS and seems to be in a "rock and hardplace," if she doesn't show strong allegiance to CBS, she'll flat be replaced.  The Katie we use to know was ethical, honest and a real professional that many, many admired - now she has fallen from this position and is scrambling for job security.  No longer a voice respected by many Americans; sadly Katie is struggling trying to keep up a false front. 
 
On February 12,, here is what Katie is trying to sell Americans after a so called poll was taken,  Katie Couric touted, as “most think his priority is serving the people" as seen on CYBER ALERT, February 12, 2010 @ 9:30 AM.   Where has Katie been hiding the past 13 months and more?   As usual, Katie has twisted the story to suit her agenda.  Most Americans that I've talked with and I'm not into "polling," say, Mr. Obama's priorities haven't included Americans nor has he shown any real concern for his Nation. 
 
Let's see, our stimulus money went to lets say the undesirables, special interest groups and hopefully not to Unions.  The HAMP program that Mr. Obama raved about is nothing more than a way to hand our money to lenders who are less than honest, many are in lawsuits beyond their armpits and no one in the Obama camp had time to monitor their activities.  Here is the perfect example of a defunct program that has wasted and misused our money. 
 
Other similar poorly orchestrated programs would be TARP, HARP, Cash for Clunkers(this program is starting to bite Americans in the fanny) and his fancy non functional programs just keep rolling along.  How many dollars, how many hours have been spent trying to ramrod the Healthcare Reform bill down our thoats? 
 
 Katie has the gull to give us some off the wall statistics about Obama's priority of serving the people - we are the people and none of us appear to be on the Obama list.  So to Katie at CBS, please don't bother trying to make a "silk purse out of a sow's ear," Americans aren't buying your product Katie Couric. 
 
Where is the young woman land who once believed in her country, her fellow Americans and Nation?  One more thing Katie, we are at war with the "terrorists," and we need a leader who has the "guts" and "desire to protect our country and our people.
 
May God Bless America Today and Always

The FOX Has Two SIdes

 For those who spend all of their time mumbling and grumbling, it may be time to spend an evening with the FOX.  First, you'll be find that you're most welcome to hang out with those who live with the FOX -  you'll be respected and treated like a family member.  Yep, you can even speak up if you don't agree with the FOX team, no one is gonna smack your hand, call you stupid or poke fun at you! 
 
Hold onto your hats visitors, you're about to enter a foreign territory that is fun, exciting and informative.  Foreign territory because we have been controlled and we're under the control of false forces, false "Gods" and the government.  The FOX team encourages you to speak up, participate and communicate with them - they want to hear from you.  It's perfectly O.K. to speak up and allow your voice to be heard; they know healthy debates are productive and often times bring new solutions or ideas to the table that need to be addressed. 
 
The FOX is leading Americans on their long hard journey to regain their voice and restore their Nation to its once strong foundation.  You'll hear both sides of the story, often times a mix of the "Good, the ugly and the bad," and it's entirely up to you to draw your own conclusions. 
 
Yep, I'm a raving FOX fan at the ripe old age of 70; I love to listen to Bill O'Reilley as he gently stirs the pot until both sides of the story are on the table.  Bill refuses to waste his time on the "he said, she said" malarky - he's a bottomline man!  Hannity jumps into the news of today with both feet and shows you clips, videos and information that comes from the horse's mouth.  Hannity is pretty much a no - nonse man who loves his country!  Greta, well she is without a doubt a lady who treats all guests, Republicans, Deomocrats or whatever with respect - and Greta doesn't come to the table empty handed.  You can count on Shep to keep things interesting, he shows true journalistic talents and of course always looks for both sides of the story. 
 
There are many more important FOX journalists, they all work for a common cause - giving you the news as it happens without hiding pertinent facts and information; they give you the beginning and the end to each story so don't worry about falling victim to a bunch of propaganda - it ain't gonna happen at FOX. 
 
Watch Glenn as he unravels a story for you, and gives you enough ammo that you can research the information, in other words do your own homework.  Glenn never asks you to take his word for anything - he comes to the table with news that a viewer can validate. 
 
It's time for Americans to take back their country, one step at a time - after visiting with many hard working men and women it is apparen;t that jobs, stopping foreclosures and government spending are priorities.  Many want the remainder of our money from HAMP, TARP, Stimulus Bill, etc.used to reduce our Federal Deficit.  So keep that spark of hope in your heart and lets make 2010 a year to be proud of...   May God Bless Our Nation and All Americans

Obama - Lost the Blame Game

In 2008, Obama fed us "change" and promised us a new rose garden. In 2009, we experienced "Change" along with a garden of thorns.  The question that arises from these mucky months is simply this...  Is Mr. Obama incapable of leading our Nation or has he with ill intent worked at bringing Americans to our knees?  Was our money for the stimulus bill, HAMP, TARP, HARP, Cash for Clunkers etc. misused in hopes that we would not be able to recover from the recession? 
 
Promises made by Obama seem to be mere whims that sound good yet have no real substance.  It's merely a psychology that has been used by him to keep us engaged and hopeful that sometime soon things will get better.  Somewhat like a spoiled child, he'll do anything for attention!  This Obama boy has played "Wolf" too long and blamed everyone under the sun for his errors and blatant behavior. 
 
Obama has crossed the line of trust so many times, that most of us would rather watch the weather channel then listen to one more Obama interview or speech.  He's worn out his welcome and 2010 isn't looking any better for him - he's still on the "healthcare reform" kick and we're still looking for jobs, help with our foreclosures, smaller government, transparency, paying down the National deficit and real protection from terrorists.  
 
Don't blame yourself if you can't figure out what the Obama agenda is -  many of his Democratic team players appear to be facing the same problem and they're jumping ship.  More Democrats will drop by the wayside in 2010, because they are concerned for our Nation and our children.  There are many great Democrats out there and their leader has dropped them on their heads; they don't know who he is, what he really stands or where he came from... 
 
Americans need do some soul searching and decide what "change" they really want - do they want higher taxes, bigger government and do they want to continue spreading the wealth with AIG, Freddie, Fannie, Acorn and all of the others who had their hand out waiting on some of our stimulus money? 
 
To those who still want to march to Obama's drummer, remember he's lost the "Blame Game," and you have too - there's no one else to blame!   Only one group of people let our Nation fall apart at the seams in 2009 and that same group is still trying to jam a healthcare reform down our throat, play patti cake with the terrorists, raise taxes and probably create another defunct stimulus bill. 
 
America, we have lost millions of jobs, our homes, our savings all because of a few extremely greedy culprits -  May God Bless America

America - Take Back Our Country

It's so easy to make a statement like "Take Back Our Country," but we are all in the same fish bowl trying to determine what the first steps are for bringing America back to a strong foundation.  Talking helps, blogging helps, contacting our representatives, emailing Glenn Beck, Bill O'Riley, Greta, Shep are all good first steps, but what one thing as Americans can we do to stop the "runaway" train.
 
What can we do to stop the "Snuckers" in 2010, by the way you all know some of the snuckers in Washington starting with Obama, Pelosi, Reid and don't forget the Treasury, AIG, Freddie Fanny and those alley cats running the Unions. 
 
In fact, normally it seems inappropriate to discuss particular bills, but in your spare time consider giving Congressman Ron Paul and Senator Jim DeMint a hand in passith the "Audit the Fed" Bill.  If we accomplish this, we will be equipped to go onto the next step in stopping a blundering, unethical group of people who are hell- bent on destroying us.
 
The "snuckers" don't deserve special consideration from any of us - they need to be removed from their positions ASAP.  Replace them one by one with patriotic, honest men and women who care about the welfare of our Nation and our children.  Remember, lets do our vetting this time on those running for office - ask them for their report card, their background, and last employer. 
 
Let's go for it and get the "Audit the Fed" Bill passed - it will be an eye opener that we won't soon forget!  We deserve to know what has been going on behind closed doors with our hard earned money.  Take care, America and may God Bless Each and Everyone

Someone Who Sneaks

Just a brief update on the word "Snucker."  When the President was back peddling about the Healthcare Reform, he let it slip that a few "stray cats and dogs" had snuck into the bill.  In other words, he was doing a little soft shoe for us, hoping we weren't listening.  Sarah Palin and Americans were correct demanding transparency on C-Span as Obama promised a jillion times.  But, that didn't happen.
 
Since I created the word "Snucker," let's give it a solid definition just like Webster would do.... Snucker is a person or person who sneaks around in the White House deliberately spending our money and destroying our lives.  Need an example:  AIG bonuses that are once again bitting us in the fanny.
 
The  billion dollar earmarks Obama agreed to, the stimulus package that was spent wrongfuly, the TARP program which is a noose around our necks, the secret meetings with Union leaders, extra money handed out to Freddie and Fanny - do you need to hear more?  Well, lets include the 2 ml Copenhagen party and the votes that have been purchased recently - you know all of this money spent by Obama and friends comes from our savings and bank accounts. 
 
Our first assignment for 2010 should be ruthlessly removing the "Snuckers," they are a disgrace to our Nation and need to be fired! 
Hope Ray Stevens or Toby Keith write a country wester song about the "Snuckers" in our White House - I'd be the first one to buy it!  May God Bless America

Its A Jungle - America

 

Americans, it’s a jungle out there – the healthcare reform is still in the process of creation behind closed doors. Senators Mary Landrieu and Ben Nelson have joined the “Snuckers” as I call them and sold their souls for a mere pittance. So much for the good ole days, when trust, respect and decency were key words that befit a good man or woman. 

As we speak, Mr. Obama and friends are planning a repeat of 2009 one more time – our hard earned money is going to AIG in the form of bonuses. We’re speaking of a company that received a Federal rescue package of approximately 180 plus billion dollars. The scuttlebutt is there will be more paid out in bonuses in early spring.

One must wonder what the big dogs are thinking at AIG when they ran like whipped pups to the “Gov” begging for help last year – do they really think Americans are going to give them the time of day next time they come crawling and begging for money!   They are literally thumbing their nose at us and still owe us a lot of money. 

Who threw our money to these wolves without proper clauses in the contract to protect Americans – does anyone realize that those who have lost their jobs, homes and hope were the ones that should have received the assistance from the stimulus bill.   AIG has reneged on timely payment of this loan and are negotiating with Feinberg once again begging for compassion.  

Nothing has changed, nothing new at the White House – we’re faced with a bunch of politicians on a runaway train. Instead of putting on the breaks, initiating a real budget, cutting out earmarks, downsizing the government (ruthlessly), retrieving the remaining money from the stimulus bill, HAMP, TARP, HARP etc., they just keep throwing on more coal and now they’re adding gasoline. 

Obama’s new budget resembles another repeat of 2009; it’s an accident waiting to happen.   If we think this is a stupid, incompetent man who just stumbles and fumbles around, we’re wrong. Those who own him and trained him are thanking him for the great job he accomplished in 2009 – he did just what he was supposed to do… He brought us to our knees ruthlessly and with evil intent.

Obama’s budget  – more reckless spending, tax increases for all (that is going to happen), bigger government, spreading the wealth, getting a government controlled healthcare reform passed, which translates into higher unemployment, more foreclosures, lenders refusing to lend, consumers refusing to buy and if this happens a “depression” will be on our doorstep.

How I wish Mr. Obama would have the guts to meet with me, without his teleprompter, on the White House steps. As an American, one who loves our country, the mother of four adult children and grandmother of seven, I should have a right to stand toe to toe with this man and have a conversation that all Americans can hear. 

First, I would ask him why all of his reforms, bills and programs in 2009 were not only costly to America, but poorly orchestrated and totally defunct programs. Next, I would ask him why in the world he protects terrorists and not Americans. Then I would ask him to discuss the reasons he keeps handling our business behind closed doors - he shows his disdain for us by blatantly making deals to buy votes, does favors for the Unions, hands money out to Freddie and Fanny without asking us and parties in Copenhagen to the tune of 2 million dollars without getting our approval. 

Does he not understand that he is our employee – he works for us or do I have that wrong?

Then I’d like to discuss the earmarks, we really don’t care about water taxies, tattoo removal, swine odor and manure etc., etc…   We do care about the blank check we’ve signed and frankly it’s time for him to hand it back to Americans. He’s irresponsible, unable to lead our Nation and its obvious now the reason his past has been hidden. 

Oh well, I’ll just keep blogging because Obama wouldn’t consider talking to a lowly grandmother who wants to leave our children and grandchildren a Nation that has been restored to its once strong foundation. May God Bless America

Thanks for talking, Annie

Grumblings of a Grandmother

Sitting here today reflecting back on 2008, 2009 and the birth of 2010, several things have crossed my mind and they're a reflection of what's in my heart and soul.
 
If I were to finish my diary today, here's how it would read.  Today has been another rough day for Americans, we're hit from all sides with devastating news.  Obama is preaching to Americans about how high the federal deficit is and his solution to that is a new sliding budget that will just keep growing the National deficit for years and his famous last words of course translate into "It Aint My Problem or Fault."  Meet the "No Fault": president of America, the one who apologizes for us to the foreigners, the one who tells us how to budget, the one who promised us better times!
 
Then the good news is and hopefully Americans will push for a new bill to audit the Feds (pretty good for a starter) and this should be accomplished before Obama gets to sign that blank check of ours that I'm always talking about...
 
So today, February 3, 2010 is the day that I hope Pelosi's takes her political stratigies and her healthcare reform and places them where they fit the best.  It would be so nice if Reid just took a long hike (maybe back to his childhood school he's always talking about in his ads.)  Lets encourage the Unions, AIG, Freddie and Fannie to take a long cruise to do some soul searching - they don't exactly fit the description of loyal patriots.
 
In fact for all the "Snuckers," I think it would be appropriate to give a rowboat to each one and let them paddle around without a home to call their own - we don't like those who sneak, abuse and misuse our generosity, patriotism and loyalty for selfish alterior motives. 
 
Wouldn't it be nice if Eric Holder was sent via a non-stop jet to Gitmo for a military trial - it would give Eric plenty of time to learn the difinition of a terrorist.  
 
To all of those Democrats and Republicans who are gutless wonders and won't stand up for their Nation or fellow Americans, just grab your hats and we'll help you out the door.  So there you go, at the age of 70 you must understand that I have always loved my country and countrymen; my dream was leaving a very special legacy to the next generations, something they could get their arms around and cherish.
 
As Always, Annie   God Bless Each and Everyone

Snuckers in the White House

One may wonder what a "snucker" is and one of my best descriptions would be Obama, Pelosi and Reid - these are the people who go behind closed doors to do business, not as usual, but to further a cause.  Mr. Obama, said he'd have to admit a few stray cats and dogs were "snuck" into the still existing Healthcare Reform, but why should this surprise him.  He was the biggest "Snucker" of all - look at his deals with the Unions, some lobbyists, Freddie, Fannie, ACORN and the dirty laundry list just keeps gushing over!
 
Americans must not only growl, complain, blog and tell each other what's going wrong hour by hour, we must join together and go to the White House to be heard.  We certainly have an agenda - and it involves saving our Nation and leaving a legacy our children and grandchildren can be proud of...
 
First of all, spending must be stopped until such time as the government has a feasible solution that will give us jobs, cut down the horrendous deficit and protect the small business, our investors and all Americans.  Now's not the time to kick investors or big business to the curb, nor is it the time to burden small businesses with one more expense.
 
Here's some food for thought.  This is an email that I just sent to my children and grandchildren.
Just a few thoughts about the economy - as you know I've been following the
political venue for several years - it appears that Obama and friends are one more time
going to step up and spend more money, increase taxes (that's inevitable) and this means
a higher deficit for future generations.
My thought would be before they do anything, insist the government discontinue HAMP,
TARP, HARP, Healthcare reform, the stimulus package and retrieve what money is left.
1.  Insist that all earmarks be removed immediately
2.  Send a panel of professional economists in to review our books of which there are 2
sets, I'm sure.
3.  Next ruthlessly cut down the size of our existing government ( they need to
experience what working harder, spending less, losing our homes and our jobs feel like.
4.  Make Obama and friends who went to Copenhagen pay Americans back the 2 million
dollars from their own personal funds - this is a matter of principle (during a recession
the last thing our government should do is use our money to party, party, party.
5.  Insist that no more spending is done at this time, no more tax increases, no more
government raises or cost of living
raises and insist on an accounting online each week of income and expenditures.  We must
start paying back on the deficit or there darn sure will be a depression.  We're going to
take a real  hit sooner or later and sooner is better so our Nation can start to recover.
What can you do, call your senators, call Washington D.C. leave messages for Obama and
let your voice be heard.  We can't just sit here and have a repeat of 2009.  Love to all,
Mom
PS.  There will be many more homes foreclosed due to the crooked HAMP program and many
states do not have enough funds for their unemployment funds. (Many are continuing to lose their
jobs.)  Nothing is better - don't believe one word you hear from the White House.  Love Mom

Dear Mr. Obama

Yep, I was one of many who sat on the edge of my seat expecting great things, but it didn't happen.  You appeared to have great difficulty pronouncing words and connecting with the American populace.  I watched your hands, which pretty much told the story (if you're used to studying body language.)  Your hands expressed anger, confusion and hopelessness!   Yet your charismatic manner and talent as a speaker, once again turned some Americans' heads, but what I experienced was a second rate movie without a beginning or an end.
 
Americans had a re-run of your campaign in 2008 - nothing really new or different!  As a grandmother of 7 and mother of 4, it is troubling to hear you talk about a solution for earmarks, actually placing the monkey back on the Republicans and Democrats, instead of telling America that you signed bills with billions in earmarks.  It's that better than "thou" attitude that kicked you in the fanny last night! 
 
Than you suggested a freeze, oh my, you never once said we're going to downsize the government and freeze government spending until Americans have jobs and their homes back.  Nope, you just threw the blame on  everyone, but the Obama Man.  It's amazing to watch you in action as you not so subtly placed blame on the Republicans, Democrats, Banks, Wall Street  etc... 
 
Do you know something we don't know Obama, for you made the statement suggesting many would lose their insurance before your speech was completed.  Think that's on the verge of a threat, or did I take it out of context?
 
 So I guess what this means is "You're Gonna Have A Good Nights Sleep." because you've just washed your hands of all responsibility for 2009. So in closing Mr. Obama, let's go around America in two - who received our stimulus monies, who is passing out money to Freddy and Fanny via the back door?  Who spent millions of dollars to go party in Copenhagen? Who promised us transparency?  Who is trying to protect the "terrorists" on our turf, instead of protecting Americans? 
 
Who in the world was responsible for all those lousy reforms or bills like HAMP, TARP, Stimulus Bill, Cash for Clunkers and who tries to fool us by saying the worst of the recession is over because of Your Quick Response?  Not even Plouffe can get you out of this mess! One more thing "A man is only as good as his word" - are you a good man, Mr. Obama?

Obama and 2 Puppets

Last night if you were watching Obama's State of the Union Speech - you noticed that Pelosi and Reid the Bobbsey twins looked like 2 puppets whose heads were loose at both ends.  We might say the "Bobble Twins, " because everything Obama said got a nod or bobble!  How embarrassing to see these two people agreeing with and acknowledging everything he said as "Gospel." 
 
But, probably what scared me the most was the uncontrollable bouncing up and down of the Democrats; why didn't they quit playing charades and let America know that they wanted no part of Obama's sno job.   There are some good Democrats out there and it would behoove them to get off Obama's fast train, while the gettin' is good. 
 
So after listening to a re-run of the 2008 campaign, I just quietly told myself that nothing has changed and this person is just as dangerous and misled as I originally thought...  America we need to speak up now and make sure that 2010 isn't a repeat of last year.  Nothing new, nothing different; he's plaining on creating a new stimulus plan for 2010, going forward with the healthcare reform and has every intention of using that confounded blank check that we were stupid enough to give him to make our lives a living "----."   May God Bless America

Obama Show

Tonight Americans sat through a 70 minute State of the Union Address by Mr. Obama, which was nothing more than an embellished campaign speech from 2008.  How many Democrats are going to have a sleepless night this evening?  Many are going to jump ship after hearing their commander and chief, because they know Americans are tired of the rhetoric and Obama propaganda.  These Democrats not only are worrying about job security, they are concerned about the problems existing in our Nation and their childrens' future.
 
We have a real problem with this man we call Mr. President - he's not in touch with reality and appears to be living in a fantacy world.  He dares to tell us of how his administration has saved us from recession.  Mr. Obama talks about all of the tax cuts and assistance that the government has given to Americans!  He has the audacity to bring up earmarks again even after signing bills with billions of dollars in earmarks in 2009. 
 
Wouldn't it be interesting to know how Mr. Obama condones spending 2 million plus taxpayers dollars to go party in Copenhagen, or an open-ended check to Freddie and Fannie (removing the caps limiting the amount of capital of 200 billion each.)  Then just recently this man who is preaching transparency met behind closed doors with the Union leaders giving them an exemption from the "Cadillac Tax" actually protecting union members for about 5 years from any tax increase, but non-union members will be taxed up to their armpits! 
 
Not to mention the "stimulus bill" which was used for his buds or the mass mess of reforms or assistance programs, such as HAMP, TARP, HARP, CASH FOR CLUNKERS, HC REFORM.  Nothing yet to help Americans, so tonight he does a cute little shuffle, grabs his teleprompter and gives us a regurgitated campaign speech.  Who is talking about regaining our "Trust?"  May God Bless America
