There is a great deal of excitement about the Senate race in Massachusetts. State Sen. Scott Brown appears within striking distance of Attorney General Martha Coakley. Brown promises to the be 41st vote in the Senate to defeat Obamacare. Tea Party activists are energized and excited; unfortunately we’re being sold a false bill of goods by the Brown campaign.
Make no mistake ladies and gentlemen: Scott Brown is no friend of liberty, no ally of doctors and his election won’t stop Obamacare. His election will, instead, tell Republican leadership that the tea party movement isn’t serious and can be manipulated. In 2010 they’ll field and support the same type of Big Government Republicans who gave us Medicare Part D.
The only argument for voting for Scott Brown that holds water with me is that he could be the 41st vote against Obamacare. This is unlikely, to say the least. If Brown wins on Jan 20th, Nancy Pelosi will likely accept what’s in the Senate Bill and it will be sent to President Obama for his signature of doom before Brown ever sets foot in Washington, DC. So much for stopping Obamacare!
Brown’s record would make any Democrat proud. He campaigned against repealing the Massachusetts State Income Tax. He voted FOR the Northeastern States Cap and Trade Law. He voted for RomneyCare. On Fox News with Sean Hannity, Brown said, “I believe every American is entitled to health care.” Of course, what he means is that he believes taxpayers should pay for every American’s health care.
Obamacare is only the tip of the iceberg. If we defeat this bill, they’ll try to pass it piece by piece. Their goal is a single-payer system where doctors take their marching orders from a central agency who determines who lives and who dies. This fight isn’t just about this one bill. This is a long term fight, and we need staunch—not lukewarm—allies in congress. The Republicans must be punished for nominating Scott Brown. He needs to lose, and it needs to be abundantly clear that Joe Kennedy, the libertarian-independent, cost him his victory. Only punishment at the polls will make the Republican leadership listen to us, and start moving their party in the direction of smaller government.
We have yet another example of children being taught to worship President Obama.
Here is the text of a song that children were instructed to sing at Longfellow Elementary School in Maryland:
Obama,
President Obama,
President Obama,
President Obama,
President Obama–He says
Yes we can!
President Obama–We say
Yes we can!
President Obama–I say
Yes I can!
President Obama–He says
Yes we can!
Barack Obama–Oh yes he rates,
The first Black President in the United States!
He’s smart and he’s–so so good!
He’ll lead this country as he should!
He wants us all to work together,
To make this country even better!
Prez’ Obama says–”Yes We Can!”
Make the US better–hand in hand!
Obama,
President Obama,
President Obama,
President Obama
President!
It doesn’t get any more blatent than that. Hero worship is dangerous. If you aren’t sure about the dangers of hero worship, take a look at this video:
Thanks to Michelle Malkin for calling this to my attention, and thanks to Red Maryland for breaking this story to the public. When these sort of things happen, we need to get the word out and shame the demagogues!
Excellent article from CNN that explains and proves how he made these promises and now he won’t keep them!

Obama is a…LIAR?? REALLY???
I really don’t understand how or why it is that the entire world is referring to the removal of Zelaya as a coup.
The fact of the matter is that under the law of Honduras, Zelaya removed HIMSELF from office, and was subsequently arrested with a warrant from the supreme court. How this can be a coup, I have no idea…
Article 239 of the Honduran Constitution states,
No citizen who has already served as head of the Executive Branch can be President or a designated person. Whoever violates this law or proposes its reform, as well as those that support such violation directly or indirectly, will immediately cease in their functions and will be unable to hold any public office for a period of 10 years
How can this be any clearer? The man, by his own actions, ceased to be president of Honduras.
Imagine if a President of the United States decided that he would remain in office after his term ended, and the military subsequently removed him from the White House. Would that be a coup?
The man is buddies with Chavez and Castro, so perhaps that is why Obama is so intent upon returning him to power…
Most readers of this blog understand that the UN is a ridiculous body made up of people with outrageous ideas and even more outrageous lust for power.
Their newest threat to our freedom: The UN Convention of Rights of the Child.
No one condones child abuse. Personally, I don’t even agree with spanking. If I see a parent spank, or slap their child in public, I do my best to embarass the hell out of them by loudly scorning them. My personal views aside, I understand that the government has no place in parenting, and only in cases of gross (criminal) abuse or neglect should the state become involved.
According to the Huffington Post it is becoming a priority among some democrats to get the treaty ratified by the Senate (it was signed by Bill Clinton, but never submitted to the Senate then).
According to the United Nations, this treaty would be legally binding, meaning that it would become the law of the land in the United States! They summarize the effect of the treaty as,
The Convention protects children’s rights by setting standards in health care; education; and legal, civil and social services.
This may seem innocuous, but let’s think about this for a moment. Do we want the UN to dictate education and health care policy to the United States? Not if we value our liberty!
Check out this youtube video about the treaty:
What are your thoughts on this issue?
Let this photograph serve as a stern warning!
The teaparty protestors had some wonderful signs!
A plastic surgeon recently reported:
Several years ago a woman was high on cocaine and marijuana and she rode a horse into a train traveling 80 miles an hour. All I had left to work with was the woman’s hair and the horse’s ass. I was able to put them together and now she’s Speaker of the House.
This is, more or less, an accurate representation of what George Washington would say in response to the misdeeds of the Obama administration!
