Racism? It’s the easiest way to get attention. Say the R-word and the media will bend over backward to cover the story. Simply put, it’s free and easy publicity for anyone who wants to be heard. There doesn’t have to be any truth behind it- as long as it’s said it must be true?

Honestly, as Americans are we not smart enough to remember the “Boy who Cried Wolf Story”? Well, that’s what’s been going on with the Sharptons, Obamas and Jacksons of the world. When will we as Americans all stand up and say enough is enough! This is dividing the country, creating racism and doing nothing to better us as a country!

Plus, Obama’s recent comments about the Zimmerman case only fueled the fire. Yes, the entire thing was a tragedy. However, did the President need to weigh in and make the whole situation that much worse? I think not.

Today, most of us learn another massive affront to our individual freedom. As if the NSA violations were not enough, now we have Obamacare tapping into what little freedom we have left. I have read the article below on the Drudge Report, and its implications are infuriating! Not only is the government tapping my phone calls, purchases and following my location but now it will also be monitoring my most sensitive financial, medical and private information- in one spot! I think that if I’d live in Russia I wouldn’t feel as violated. What about the Chinese that are hacking into our computer systems, the Snowdens or even the Wiki leaks? Do you really trust the government with this information. And, who know what nefarious plans the democratic liberals have with all this data? I can tell you it won’t be our best interests.

Why don’t you just take away all our guns, freedom and dignity Obama- and while you do so, make sure you burn that old Constitution of ours while you are at it.

Would you trust thousands of low-level Federal bureaucrats and contractors with one-touch access to your private financial and medical information? Under Obamacare you won’t have any choice.

As the Obamacare train-wreck begins to gather steam, there is increasing concern in Congress over something called the Federal Data Services Hub. The Data Hub is a comprehensive database of personal information being established by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to implement the federally facilitated health insurance exchanges. The massive, centralized database will include comprehensive personal information such as income and financial data, family size, citizenship and immigration status, incarceration status, social security numbers, and private health information. It will compile dossiers based on information obtained from the IRS, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Defense, the Veterans Administration, the Office of Personnel Management, the Social Security Administration, state Medicaid databases, and for some reason the Peace Corps. The Data Hub will provide web-based, one-stop shopping for prying into people’s personal affairs.

I’ve added below an excerpt from an article that I just read. Is it me or is anyone else getting tired of the whole global warming rhetoric that permeates the liberal media and is the call to war for the democrats? If it wasn’t blaming President Bush, it was blaming global warming and greenhouse gases. First of all, the media makes it seem as if our CO2 production has taken over the entire atmosphere. When in fact, the entire concentration of CO2 in earth’s atmosphere is only0.0397%! Plus, the liberals always pursue that idea that if the CO2 content in the earth’s atmosphere rises any higher, we’ll turn into the planet Venus. As you may already know that on Venus, because of the increased CO2 in the atmosphere,traps the heat, creating sweltering temperatures. However, what the media does not tell you is that on Venus, the atmosphere is composed of 96% CO2. That is 24,181 times greater than on Earth! Numbers don’t lie but unfortunately, the media does.

This has been one weird week. First of all Jimmy Carter said the Zimmerman case was fair and he agreed with the verdict. I just assumed Cater forgot to drink the Kool-Aid that day and said something rational. However, now I just read the following excerpt:

One of Germany’s biggest newspapers – Spiegel –reports: 

Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter … in the wake of the NSA spying scandal criticized the American political system. “America has no functioning democracy,” Carter said Tuesday at a meeting of the “Atlantic Bridge” in Atlanta.

Many other high-level U.S. officials have also warned that the U.S. is no longer a democracy.
Carter also said that the moral authority of of the U.S. has sharply declined due to excessive restriction of civil rights.
And –  and like many other top American officials– Carter also said that Edward Snowden’s revelations do not harm our national security, but are “useful”.

Has the world gone mad? Has senility actually turned Carter into a rationally thinking person? Did he finally realize that he had a soul. Even though I disagree with Carter’s policies as president and most of them since his single term ended, I do believe one thing- that he actually cared for America. However, he went about showing it the wrong way. Unlike our current president-Obama- he wanted the US to succeed and for the country to be a world power. Unfortunately, his policies were wrong and he was a poor leader.

The sad thing is that Carter is right. The republic has fallen. Just like when Julius Caesar cross the Rubican and terminated Rome’s democracy, that is what Obama has done to America. We have become a nanny state with big brother watching over us al all times, all places and everywhere. We have slowly given up our freedom and have snuggled up to the idea that the country can take better care of us than we can. It is sad but this is exactly what is happening. It was predicted this would be the consequence of an Obama administration and it has come to fruition.

Well Carter, you are 2 for 2 this week. Can you make it 3 out of 3?

I am christening a new segment on this blog called: Name the Liberal. I’m going to start out with a fun one. Can you name who Miss Lube Rack is? Here’s a hint: she loves Vladimir Lenin, hates the Constitution and lost touch with reality a good 40 years ago. Now, NAME THAT LIBERAL:

Regardless of what you you’ve heard on abortion, before making up for mind where you stand on the issue, you should understand the facts. Many of us have made up our minds based upon religion, political beliefs or even hearsay. Because this is such a hot topic, I will keep all comments neutral and let you decide where you stand with regard to Texas’s recent ruling. But before making any conclusions, please go to this link: http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/23/doctor-who-did-1200-abortions-tells-congress-to-ban-them/

The following article was taken from Fox News. However, before reading it, I would like to make a few comments:
1. First of all, we should not belittle the death of Travon Martin because the loss of any human life is tragic. Though Zimmerman was found innocent in court, no one won. His life is forever in shambles, Travon’s parent’s lives will never be the same and our country is again more divided under Obama
2. How convenient for Holder to take a stand on the issue. It seems he is all too eager to divert the attention away from his and his department’s scandals. No Holder, we have not forgotten about Benghazi and your other failures. No matter how much you filibuster the Martin case, you have failed in your position.
3. Also, how insane is it that Holder wants the Florida’s self-defense laws taken off the books. What should a person do if he is attacked? Stand there and do nothing? This is America. We stand our ground and stand up for our rights. Did we stand our ground after Pearl Harbor? No, of course not.
