Pic of The Day

I’d like to introduce a new part of my blog. It’s going to be called Pic of The Day. This first one compares the the difference between Obama and Governor Romney. I think the difference between the two is summed up rather nicely here:

Obama is Above the Constitution

          Somehow I am starting to get the feeling that Obama thinks he’s above the Constitution. Call me crazy but I am a little surprised after I read the following:
President Obama is considering executive-branch action on U.S. cybersecurity after Congress failed to pass legislation to protect national security assets, a White House aide said.
“If the Congress is not going to act on something like this, then the president wants to make sure that we’re doing everything possible,”  John Brennan, Obama’s counterterrorism adviser, said today at an event at the Council on Foreign Relations in Washington.
          Actually, I’m not surprised at all at such blatant disrespect for the Constitution. What our Fuhrer is doing is bypassing the Congress and acting unilaterally. Remember, Congress creates the laws and the president signs them. Instead, Obama is putting laws into effect that were never passed through the Congress and making unilateral decisions.  
          This is exactly why the founding fathers made the checks and balance system. They wanted depart from the traditional system of when a king ruled the country to a democratic system similar to that of the ancient Greeks and early Romans. Now what has happened is that Obama is moving back to the form of government which our forefathers fought so hard to depart from
          Let me ask: “Where is the media outrage?” The president wants to trash the Constitution and the mainstream media remain silent? Has CNN, MSNBC and The New York Times simply become just an extension of the White House publicity department. Are they the equivalent to Russia’s government-run paper-Pravda? It must be so. We Americans should be outraged. We should all be calling our Congressmen to impeach the president.

          It’s not like he hasn’t done the same thing before. Just recently he made an executive order to take the “work out of welfare” as Governor Romney astutely states. “The 1996 welfare reform legislation was overwhelmingly popular, was a great bipartisan achievement, stands as a policy success and comports with Americans’ deepest values about personal responsibility and the work ethic. And Obama tosses that aside, for reasons that still seem perplexing.”
          Now we know why Obama and his staff are so glib about saying that if Congress doesn’t pass something they want, Obama will create a new law for it all by himself. The reason is simple. He just did it little to no backlash. There was no consequences, march on Washington or call for Obama’s resignation. Instead, the mainstream media remained silent as our president disregards the Constitution, dismantles the economy, trashes our space programs, spits on work done by our forefathers, embraces our enemies, polarizes our allies and creates a welfare state.
          Good job Mr. President!

Ann Coulter: Obama’s Signature Move

    As luck would have it, Obama’s opponent in the general election had also been divorced! Jack Ryan was tall, handsome, Catholic — and shared a name with one of Harrison Ford’s most popular onscreen characters! He went to Dartmouth, Harvard Law and Harvard Business School, made hundreds of millions of dollars as a partner at Goldman Sachs, and then, in his early 40s, left investment banking to teach at an inner city school on the South Side of Chicago.

     Ryan would have walloped Obama in the Senate race. But at the request of — again — the Chicago Tribune, California Judge Robert Schnider unsealed the custody papers in Ryan’s divorce five years earlier from Hollywood starlet Jeri Lynn Ryan, the bombshell Borg on “Star Trek: Voyager.”
Jack Ryan had released his tax records. He had released his divorce records. But both he and his ex-wife sought to keep the custody records under seal to protect their son.

    Amid the 400 pages of filings from the custody case, Jack Ryan claimed that his wife had had an affair, and she counterclaimed with the allegation that he had taken her to “sex clubs” in Paris, New York and New Orleans, which drove her to fall in love with another man. (Republicans: If you plan a career in public office, please avoid marrying a wacko.) Ryan had vehemently denied her allegations at the time, but it didn’t matter. The sex club allegations aired on “Entertainment Tonight,” “NBC Nightly News,” ABC’s “Good Morning America,” “The Tonight Show With Jay Leno,” and NBC’s “Today” show. CNN covered the story like it was the first moon landing.(Interestingly, international papers also were ablaze with the story — the same newspapers that were supposed to be so bored with American sexual mores during Bill Clinton’s sex scandal.)

    Four days after Judge Schnider unsealed the custody records, Ryan dropped out of the race for the horror of (allegedly) propositioning his own wife and then taking “no” for an answer.
Alan Keyes stepped in as a last-minute Republican candidate.

    And that’s how Obama became a U.S. senator. He destroyed both his Democratic primary opponent and his Republican general election opponent with salacious allegations about their personal lives taken from “sealed” court records.

    Obama’s team delved into Sarah Palin’s marriage and spread rumors of John McCain’s alleged affair in 2008 and they smeared Herman Cain in 2011 with hazy sexual harassment allegations all emanating from David Axelrod’s pals in Chicago.

    It’s almost like a serial killer’s signature. Unsealed personal records have been released to the press. Obama must be running for office!

    So you can see what a pickle the Obama campaign is in having to run against a Dudley Do-Right, non-drinking, non-smoking, God-fearing, happily married Mormon.
They’ve got to get their hands on thousands of pages of Romney’s tax filings so that the media can — as Romney says — lie about them. It will be interesting to see if Obama can pick the lock of the famously guarded IRS.

Governor Romney in Israel

          What does America stand for now? That is the question I was pondering after watching Governor Romney’ visits to England and Israel. Unlike Obama, Governor Romney clearly states to us Americans and the world his foreign policy plans. He was quoted in Israel as saying:
          “Make no mistake, the ayatollahs in Iran are testing our moral defenses,” Romney said. They want to know who will object and who will look the other way. We will not look away nor will our country ever look away from our passion and commitment to Israel. … We recognize Israel’s right to defend itself.”
          Now, let’s contrast this to Obama’s stance. Well, to begin with, it’s a difficult thing to do. First of all, because Obama doesn’t want to make anybody feel bad or disenfranchised, he takes no clear posture on the issue. Instead he waffles with his poll numbers and tries to appease everybody instead of making a commitment. It’s like he doesn’t know how to lead. Instead, he lets popular opinion decide his Israeli policy. He has clearly not come out in favor of Israeli security and in fact said they should return to their old, non-defendable borders. And the most cowardly thing he does when he attempts to help Israel is leak the information along with other American secrets to the media. Is this some sort of joke? President Reagan would roll over in his grave if he knew how Obama disgraced the oval office.
          Also ask yourself about Obama’s commitment to NATO. Does he see England, Poland or the other members as allies or just a bunch of civilized Western countries that have enslaved the world with their capitalistic and expansionistic ideas? Does he hold animosity toward them for their past? Does he view the Muslim world as America’s true allies? Well, he’s certainly not showing any endearment to Poland when he scrapped President Bush’s plans for a missile defense shield there. What’s Poland and its neighboring countries to do in case of a missile attack?  Ask nicely for them to go away and try to reason with the enemy?
          In stark contrast to the weak president we have now, Governor Romney fully supports NATO and the missile defense plan. He also supports a strong military and abhors Obama’s cuts to the armed forces during an ongoing time of war. He knows that the enemy respects only one thing- and that thing is strength. President Reagan knew this and history clearly shows us what happened to the former USSR as a result.
          The bottom line is, if you want to vote for somebody who supports our allies, respects our troops, will lead the country with dignity and return America to greatness, vote for Governor Romney. If you want to wallow in mediocrity and see our country speaking Chinese, vote for Obama.

Recent Reviews for The Final Reality

“The Final Reality is a literary masterpiece that transcends modern writing and creates its own, unique fictional genre. What Stephen Martino has so adeptly and originally accomplished in this novel is to incorporate medical and political issues together into a high-impact thriller with drama throughout every page. With believable characters, an astute attention to history, and an uncanny ability to make to you laugh, the novel sends the reader on a fictional journey that proves difficult to put down. Plus, its hard hitting coverage of significant medical, political and economic issues that world currently faces today is a true testament to our modern society and provides a warning of what consequences could ensue if mankind does not correct the follies that it has already created.”

“The Final Reality is well-researched, politically charged thriller that foreshadows the apocalyptic consequences of unchecked government and technology. The novel takes the reader on electrifying journey into the late 21st century where mankind’s knowledge far supersedes its wisdom. It’s a time when humanity turns to government and their inventions instead of to themselves or God.  It’s a time when a megalomaniac dictator can rise to power and is supported by those exact people that he suppressing. The Final Reality chilling forebodes the humanitarian cost of our technology and the cataclysmic outcome it could have on our planet. Though fictional, the book warns of a dire future that may have already come today.”

I know he has the ability to turn this financial debacle that the current regime has gotten us into.We won’t like all the things necessary to recover from this debt, but someone with Romney’s background can do it. But, on the minus side, He never was a “Community Organizer”, never took drugs or smoked pot, never got drunk, did not associate with communists or terrorists, nor did he attend a church whose pastor called for God to damn the US.

You should know the difference between the men running for America’s top office.

Prayer to Obama

“Our President, who art in the White House, hallow be thy name, OBAMA. Thy taxes come, thy will be done in America as it is in fascism. Give us this day our daily food stamps and forgive us our for our success as we forgive those who succeed more than we do. And lead us not into self-sufficiency but deliver us from capitalism. AMEN…I mean Hail Obama”

          Finally, today is the day that Obama really shows us what he truly believes. There is no longer any hiding or denying the facts. The man is a true fascist. Since he’s been in office, the power of the presidency has emboldened him. It’s like he can say anything without repercussions.

There are a lot of wealthy, successful Americans who agree with me—because they want to give something back. They know they didn’t—look, if you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own. I’m always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart. There are a lot of smart people out there. It must be because I worked harder than everybody else. Let me tell you something—there are a whole bunch of hardworking people out there. (Applause.)

If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business—you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.

          When you read this, it’s a confession. He’s literally telling America and the world that he is a 21st century fascist. He honestly believes that without government we are nothing. It’s not our hard work that made us successful. It’s not the hours extra spent doing a project that made the outcome turn out well. It’s not the long hours of studying that got you that degree. It’s not the sacrifices and hard work that got you to the top.

          No, it was the government. The government got you that degree. It was the government that got you that promotion. It wasn’t the hundred hours of overtime that go you that bonus. No it was Obama and his government.

          Well, if that’s the fact, I’d like to personally thank Obama for all the good in my life. I’d like to thank him, PERSONALLY, for my degrees, business and family. In fact, I’m going to forgo church and go directly to The White House every Sunday to give my savior, OBAMA, proper homage. We should change the Our Father to…”Our President, who art in the White House, hallow be thy name, OBAMA. Thy taxes come, thy will be done in America as it is in fascism. Give us this day our daily food stamps and forgive us our for our success as we forgive those who succeed more than we do. And lead us not into self-sufficiency but deliver us from capitalism. AMEN…I mean Hail Obama.”

          All joking aside. This is not funny! The man is more left than Hitler! In fact remember these slogans: “One people. One nation. One leader.” “Give me 4 years’ time.” “The President is always right.” Well, if you don’t, they’re a direct translation from the Nazi propaganda machine. What began as a troubling term in the White has turned into a nightmare. The man truly wants to kill America. He obviously doesn’t believe in the American dream and as more people get on the government doll, he has them believing the same things as him.

          It is sad how low our country has gone. Heaven help us if Obama has another 4 years!

If You Can’t Beat Them, Lie About Them?

As a child I can remember the old adage If you can’t beat them, join them. However, it seems Obama and his reelection campaign are adhering to a new one: If you can’t beat them, lie about them. I know politics is dirty but now our president has taken it to another level. It’s so bad that he’s making lawyers look worse than they really are- and that’s a difficult thing to do!

          Most, I mean all, incumbent presidents, at least run on something positive they did for the country or show how they improved our lives in some way. Even the second worst president I can remember (Jimmy Carter) had something positive to say about his deplorable tenure in office. Unfortunately, Obama has nothing at all to brag about. Domestically we are in the gutter and our foreign policy is in shambles. After over 3 years with him in office America has become China’s bitch. We are no longer the super power we once were. We have become mediocre- just like our president and his wife. Is that what he wanted? Does he want to bring down everyone to such a level where no one feels bad? Does he think this will make our country better? Unfortunately, he does believe in this and will continue bring down America’s level of excellence until we a has-been country with open borders, terrorists in our streets, a socialist economy and a poor standard of living- Welcome to Obama’s America.

          His America wasn’t the one I was brought up to believe in. His America is not the one our soldiers gave their lives to defend. His America is not our America. He wanted to fundamentally change our country. He’s done it. He’s fundamentally put us in the gutter, killed the economy, turned his back on our military, created a welfare state and left the next generation with more debt than they can pay.

          So now he’s up for reelection. Obviously he can’t run on anything positive he’s done. He can’t run on the economy, his success with green energy, his foreign policy, his plans for our future or how he improved the lives of any tax paying American. Instead, he’s turned to lies. Recently he said that Governor Romney sent jobs overseas (Just look at how many jobs were lost over the past 3 years to foreign countries). More ridiculous, he also stated that Governor Romney is a felon! A bigger slap in the face is when he was confronted with these blatant lies, he refused to apologize or take them back.

          There was a joke we use to say when I was younger: “How do you know a lawyer is lying?…. When you see his lips moving.” Well, now replace the word lawyer with Obama and the joke holds true. However, I’m not laughing and neither should anyone else out there who has any bit of common sense. Obama is insulting all of our intelligences. He thinks he can blurt out any inane statement and we all will believe it like a mindless flock of sheep. He thinks we are too stupid really to think or doing anything for ourselves. He thinks that without government we’d all be wandering around in rain storms with our mouths open until we drowned.

          Well, Obama- the people of our country made America great, not its politicians. America was built on the hard work of its citizens, not the pencil pushing of it its elected officials. I hope you learn one thing this November Mr. President. Americans are not mindless drones who will follow you anywhere and believe your senseless rhetoric. And we’ll show this fact when we boot you out of the White House and back to obscurity. You’ll just be some footnote in the history of America as the worst president ever.

10 Reasons Not To Like Mitt Romney

This was sent to me:
A lot is being said in the media about Mitt Romney not being “likable” or that he doesn’t “relate” well to people. So, after much thought I came up with with a Top Ten list to explain this unlikablility.

Top Ten Reasons To Dislike Mitt Romney

1. Successful, self-made businessman. (Dad didn’t give him a hand-out; he and his wife had to make it on their own)

2. Been married to ONE woman his entire life, and has been FAITHFUL to her. (It would be more fun to watch another John Edwards trial)

3. No scandals or skeletons in his closet. (How boring is that?)

4. Can’t speak in a fake southern black preacher voice when necessary


5. Puts his dog on the car as opposed to eating dogs. (As Obama did in Indonesia)

6. Has pots of money (made it all himself) and since nobody else in this country has any desire to have pots of money….we don’t like him!!!

7. Has a family of great boys….none of them are in drug rehab. (And none have sex tapes with Kim Kardashion)

8. Doesn’t smoke (even in secret), drink alcohol, or do drugs (not even in college, where other people were NOT inhaling)

9. Represents an America of “yesterday”, where people believed in God, went to Church, didn’t screw around, worked hard, and became a SUCCESS! (We can’t relate to such an anachronism)

10. Oh yes…..he’s a MORMON. That horrible religion that teaches it’s members to be clean-living, patriotic, fiscally conservative, charitable, self-reliant, honest, upright and MORAL!

And one more point…..pundits say because of his wealth, he can’t relate to ordinary Americans. I guess that’s because he made that money ALL BY HIMSELF…..as opposed to marrying it (as in John Kerry) or inheriting it from Dad (as in Jack, Robert & Ted Kennedy.) We didn’t understand that actually working at a job and earning your own money made you un-relatable to Americans. Strange.

Why We Need More Governor Christies

          As a child I learned not to spend what I don’t have. It seems simple. Yet, few politicians understand the premise. Thus, I’d like to contrast the governor of my State, Chris Christie, and California’s governor, Jerry Brown.

          After taking office Governor Christie was faced with a state budget out of touch with reality, overflowing with kickbacks and favors. Due to rising property taxes, a real estate bubble and increased costs of living, people were leaving the state in droves. It almost seemed as if North Carolina would soon become the New- New Jersey.

          It was then that Governor Christie was faced with the 8.7 billion dollar trans-Hudson tunnel that former Governor Corzine rushed through his administration in an unsuccessful bid for reelection. (Yes, the same Corzine who mysteriously lost over a billion dollars of his company’s money. Hey, maybe it allocated to the tunnel project?) The truth is that a trans-Hudson tunnel would certainly be nice. However, there was absolutely no way to pay for it. What is 8.7 billion dollars now could have easily bloomed into 20 billion within a few years. Anyone who had construction done knows the game.

          And this is where Governor Christie immediately stood out as someone different- someone who’d do the right thing even if it were not popular. He knew there was no way to build the tunnel. He understood the enormous costs of such a venture. He also understood that raising taxes would cause the entire state to relocate. Between NJ’s three former governors (I say the term loosely), Corzine, McGreevey and Codey, the state had been taxed out and run into a financial abyss.

Thus, Governor Christie vetoed the bill, essentially ending the recent era financial insanity. He knew the tunnel was pushed through Trenton not for the people but as a kickback for those that got Corzine elected. He knew the cost would suffocate the state’s floundering economy and create a mass exodus of its population.

Now let’s contrast Governor Christie to Governor Jerry Brown. Unlike a measly 8.6 billion dollar bill for a tunnel, he gave the green light to an 86 billion dollar mega-kickback known as the high-speed rail. I don’t have to remind everyone out there that the socialist state of California is bankrupt. What is happening out there is the exact opposite of the gold rush. Instead of rushing in, people are rushing out to the surrounding states.

The funny thing is that some have called this trans-San Francisco to LA train the “Train to Nowhere”. However, I’m labeling it the train to economic destitution. With California’s economy totally in the crapper, this 86 billion dollar behemoth is set to financial cripple the state indefinitely. What Jerry Brown has done is essentially drove a spike straight through the financial heart of the state. Caring more about re-election, paying off cronies and appeasing the groups that got him into office, this governor set the stage for the second greatest financial disaster our country has ever seen (the first being Obama’s 6 trillion dollar deficit).

Now let’s think logically. There is no possible way for the state of California to pay for this train. Plus, how much revenue will it eventually bring in? The answer is: not nearly enough. Plus, California has become one of the most business-unfriendly states in the union. So tell me, what hard-working, responsible person would really want to live in California anymore. Between Jerry Brown running the budget and the lunatic senator, Nancy Pelosi, it has in Washington, what chance does the state have for the future. The answer is: none!
