Global Warming Myth

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.

As firefighters head home from Southern Nevada, U.S. Sen. Harry Reid on Wednesday blamed “climate change” for the intense blaze that consumed nearly 28,000 acres and drove hundreds of residents from their homes around Mount Charleston this month.

“Why are we having them? Because we have climate change. Things are different. The forests are drier, the winters are shorter, and we have these terrible fires all over the West.”

Reid made the statement as the battle against the 27,881-acre Carpenter 1 Fire was coming to a close and residents and business operators in the once-threatened Kyle Canyon were allowed to return to their homes Wednesday.

I agree with Jimmy Carter?

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?

Hot Topic: Abortion

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/

Holder Wades Deeper into Zimmerman Battle

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.

Attorney General Eric Holder waded deeper into the controversy over the George Zimmerman case and verdict on Tuesday, suggesting a national review of “stand-your-ground” laws during a speech before the annual NAACP convention in Orlando.

The NAACP is at the forefront of the effort to pressure the Justice Department to bring federal civil rights charges against Zimmerman. Holder confirmed on Monday that his department is reviewing that possibility, citing his personal concerns about the case.
He went a step further on Tuesday, weighing in for the first time on controversial state-level laws on self-defense.

“Separate and apart from the case that has drawn the nation’s attention, it’s time to question laws that senselessly expand the concept of self-defense and sow dangerous conflict in our neighborhoods,” Holder said.

The comments were a reference to so-called “stand-your-ground” laws, which in Florida and other states allow people to use deadly force if they think their life is being threatened.

The role that law played in the Zimmerman shooting of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin is a matter of dispute.
But Holder suggested the laws encourage confrontation, saying there “has always been” a legal defense for using deadly force when retreat is not an option.    

“But we must examine laws that take this further by eliminating the common sense and age-old requirement that people who feel threatened have a duty to retreat, outside their home, if they can do so safely,” Holder said. “By allowing — and perhaps encouraging — violent situations to escalate in public, such laws undermine public safety.”
He called for a “hard look” at the laws. The crowd applauded as he said “we must stand our ground.”

The “stand-your-ground” laws have been a popular target ever since the Martin shooting, and the pressure has intensified after Zimmerman was acquitted on Saturday.

Florida Gov. Rick Scott, though, told Fox News that officials should not politicize the case.

“We shouldn’t turn this into politics. This was a tragedy,” he told Fox News on Monday.
Scott noted that he already put together a bipartisan commission to examine Florida’s “stand-your-ground” law.

“Their recommendation is we not make any changes, that it is working the way it was intended,” Scott said.

A confluence of pressure campaigns, though, are weighing on Congress and the Obama administration.
Despite warnings from analysts and attorneys that the Justice Department would face an uphill climb in prosecuting Zimmerman on civil rights charges, an NAACP-led petition demanding such a case has apparently hit one million signatures.

Singer Stevie Wonder is also the latest celebrity to criticize Florida’s self-defense law.

He declared that he would not perform in Florida until the law is abolished.

Pic of the Day

The irony is that without his teleprompter, Obama is like a deer in headlights. In this time of world crisis and economic uncertainty, we need a president who can do more than just give a good speech. We need someone to tackle the problem head on- not someone who plays golf while the rest of his cabinet are on million dollar yachts. We need someone with real ideas and real plans to implement them. Unfortunately, we’re left with a bunch of hot air and rhetoric. Keep talking Obama; there’ less people listening every day.

Obama: “Speak Loudly and Carry a Small Stick”

Remember former President Theodore Roosevelt’s slogan: “Talk softly but carry a big stick”? Well, I’ve coined a new term for Obama’s foreign policy: “Speak loudly and carry a small stick”. Take away all his rhetoric and all you are left with is a deflated balloon. As Obama’s foreign policy continues disintegrate before our eyes it should not come as a surprise. Remember his initial apology tour and him bowing down to the Saudi King among other world leaders?

The US is no longer taking an active role in foreign policy. Some say that is a good thing but as we look around the globe, the outcomes are irrefutable. Unfortunately, as history repeatedly teaches us, countries don’t play nicely together. It is a simple as that. There needs to be a leader-someone to take control and keep peace. The UN can’t do it nor do I ever foresee that it will. Under President Bush the world watched our actions. Now, we watch in trepidation the world’s actions. The biggest question remains: can the world survive another 3 years of Obama without collapsing?

Zimmerman Riot

Are we in store for a Rodney King style riot after Zimmerman’s verdict is decided? Has the NBC editing of Zimmerman’s calls set the stage for unnecessary rioting, looting and needless killing. Has the media’s insistence on playing the race card throughout their coverage fueled the flames that were lit by NBC’s unscrupulous reporting? Has Facebook and other liberal outlets kept this fresh in America’s minds since the story broke?

When North Korea is vowing nuclear attacks, the IRS is targeting conservative groups. Obama is coving up his blunders in Benghazi, our economy is tanking and our debt rises, why has this story become the backbone of the liberal media’s coverage? The answer is simple. By using buzz words, playing on people’s emotions and chanting race like they were Paul Revere, the media is taking attention away from what is really happening here is America. Our government is crumbling before our eyes. Obama has thrown out the Constitution, bills by the Senate are being passed with so much pork that it raises your cholesterol just by reading it, the economy is tanking and our foreign policy has reverted back to the pitiful days of Jimmy Carter. In the end, the media doesn’t want people to realize the policies of the Democrats are failures, their leaders are crazy and that they are bankrupting the country. They’ve blinded most of America to the truth.

The media is supposed too be unbiased. A free press was set forth by our founding fathers to ensure an additional checks and balance system to the government. That checks and balance is long gone. And our founding fathers were right. Without it America is crumbling before our eyes, leaving our children just a shell of the prosperity we all enjoyed when we were kids.

In the end, the Zimmerman verdict will eventually end in riots-no matter what the verdict. Congratulations liberal media. This is what you created.

Has Government Become Too Big?

Has government become too large? Has regulations and taxes bogged us down so much in America that it makes it difficult to do anything? Has the government infiltrated just about the every part of your life?

Well if you haven’t answered yes to these questions, you probably don’t live in the USA. Unfortunately, the size of government and their regulations has made it difficult to a accomplish anything constructive without getting a headache while doing do. Has anyone ever put an addition on their house or attempted to start a business lately. Well, if you have you know exactly what I’m talking about.

If you haven’t, how about just looking at the cell phone bill. You ever ask what some of those fees are that you never heard of? Yes, they are government taxes that are mandated to every paying customer with a cell phone. Those that aren’t paying get them for free while we pay the price. Why not. Share the wealth. Even the playing field. What’s mine is yours. What’s yours is yours.

Sometimes I simply have to laugh at how ridiculous things have become. So I don’t get everybody down reading this blog I added this humorous short story:

In the year 2013, the Lord came unto Noah, Who was now living in America and said: 
 “Once again, the earth has become wicked and over-populated, and I see
the end of all flesh before me.”
“Build another Ark and save 2 of every living thing along with a few
good humans.”

He gave Noah the blueprints, saying:
“You have 6 months to build the Ark before I will start the unending rain for 40 days and 40 nights.”

Six months later, the Lord looked down and saw Noah weeping in his yard
– but no Ark. “Noah!,” He roared, “I’m about to start the rain! Where is
the Ark?”
“Forgive me, Lord,” begged Noah, “but things have changed.”
“I needed a Building Permit.”
“I’ve been arguing with the Boat Inspector about the need for a
sprinkler system.”
“My homeowners association claim that I’ve violated the
Neighborhood by-laws by building the Ark in my back yard and exceeding
the height limitations. We had to go to the local Planning Committee
for a decision.”

“Then the City Council and the Electricity Company demanded a shed load
of money for the future costs of moving power lines and other overhead
obstructions, to clear the passage for the Ark’s move to the sea. I
told them that the sea would be coming to us, but they would hear none
of it.”

“Getting the wood was another problem. There’s a ban on cutting local
trees in order to save the Greater Spotted Barn Owl.”
“I tried to convince the environmentalists that I needed the wood to
save the owls – but no go!”
“When I started gathering the animals, PETA took me to court. They
insisted that I was confining wild animals against their will. They
argued the accommodations were too restrictive and it was cruel and
inhumane to put so many animals in a confined space.”

“Then the Environmental Protection Agency ruled that I couldn’t build
the Ark until they’d conducted an environmental impact study on Your
proposed flood.”
“I’m still trying to resolve a complaint with the Human Rights
Commission on how many minorities I’m supposed to hire for my building
crew.”
“The Immigration Dept. Is checking the visa status of most of the
people who want to work.”
“The labor unions say I can’t use my sons. They insist I have to hire
only union workers with ark-building experience.”
“To make matters worse, the IRS seized all my assets, claiming I’m
trying to leave the country illegally with endangered species.”
“So, forgive me, Lord, but it would take at least 10 years for me to
finish this ark.”
“Suddenly the skies cleared, the sun began to shine and a rainbow
stretched across the sky.”
Noah looked up in wonder and asked, “You mean you’re not going to
destroy the world?”
“No,” said the Lord. ” The Government beat me to it.”
