43% of Registered Republicans surveyed believe that President Obama wasn't born here with 27% believe the opposite and the rest aren't sure.
Truly sad.

Is It Happening?
I'm sure you are aware of the suspected killing in Kentucky of the Federal worker. If it is verified as such, I believe it's something to keep an eye on for sure. However, the telling statistic to me is here
"The amount of taxes the federal government took in from the manufacturers of all firearms and ammunition in the fourth quarter of 2008, the period between Oct. 1 and Dec. 31, increased 31 percent over the same time period reported in 2007. That's from the most recent Firearms and Ammunition Excise Tax Collection Report released earlier this month by the Department of the Treasury. The average increase from 2007 in the previous three quarters of 2008 was 9.7 percent."
"Demand for ammunition, across caliber lines, is outpacing supply. In order to keep up with demand, manufacturers are working at full capacity, 24 hours a day, seven days a week," said Ted Novin, the director of public affairs for the National Shooting Sports Foundation."
Now that is downright scary. Again, this is the information age. Too much access to anything you want at any time. Easier to get across any message, so naturally hate, paranoia and fear can be spread in a split second to the paranoid, hateful and fearful.
And remember, we still got 3 and half years left for the Black President. I'm worried.

Palin Kickin' Ass in Hong Kong
Some early feedback coming in regarding Palin's speech in Hong Kong.
Some money quotes:
"Two US delegates left early, according to AFP, with one saying "it was awful, we couldn't stand it any longer." He declined to be identified."
"Palin spoke out against government intervention in the economy. "We got into this mess because of government interference in the first place," Palin said, according to the Wall Street Journal. "We're not interested in government fixes, we're interested in freedom," she added."
I believe the fact that there was absolutely zero regulation on the markets is the reason our economy ended up this way. But she is a Kristol clone. Facts don't matter.
Oh here is a good one:
"She claimed that if taxes were cut and the capital gains tax and estate tax eliminated, the world would "watch the U.S. economy roar back to life."
Does she know that there are two wars going on that actually cost money?
More feedback:
"As fund managers we want to hear about the United States as a whole, not just about Alaska," one told AFP. "And she criticized Obama a lot but offered no solutions."
She also took some good cheap shots at China. You know, the one Country that can and will destroy us whenever they see fit.
I hope she runs in 2012. I really do.

Roy Blunt Being Blunt
He's a favorite amongst the Institutionalized Christian base. Bruce Wilson writes about this event.
Family Research Council head Tony Perkins gave him this introduction:
"He is now the second highest ranking Republican on the House Energy and Commerce Committee, which is a very important committee on the health care issue,"
And as he spoke to the White Audience of 2000, he gave them an analogy about how the GOP members is comparable to the lot of imperial British agents in India who had to deal with monkeys running amok on a golf course that the colonial occupiers had carved out of the verdant Indian jungle. There was a problem, he said; monkeys would come out of the jungle, grab golf balls, and throw them about. Amidst gradual laughter, he stated:
"I could go into great and long detail about how many things they did to try and eliminate the 'monkey problem.' But they never got it done, so finally this golf course and this golf course only, they passed a rule and the rule was - you have to play the ball where the monkey throws it. [audience laughter swells] And that is the rule in Washington all the time."
The audience according to the article, ate it up. Loved it. Made a lot of sense to them. Missouri, even though has a growing Democratic base, still has a huge base of scary institutionalized crazies. Remember that documentary "Jesus Camp"? I do.

Beck
I thought this was cool. Scott Erick Kaufman has started a new word. He did this while defending the National Endowment of the Arts against the latest GOP BS.
*beck v. trans. beck-ing, beck-ed, to be baselessly attacked by an idiot with a megaphone, then have those accusations alter your life for the worse because it’s politically expedient for your spineless superiors to demote or fire you.

Racism - Christianity
The reason many Institutionalized Christians(Independent Baptists) are racists, is because of the Light vs. Dark analogy. They have used this analogy and carried it over to skin color. That's what it's always been about. Because they are black, they must be bad. They must be thought of as less than human, and there is a reason they are Black. In case you didn't know.
KKK Rallies
Okay maybe I was a little harsh grouping up all the protesters. However, it's clear that a large percentage of these protesters are racists. Not necessarily racist towards all black people, but bigoted towards their perceptions that he's a Muslim. And with institutionalized Christians, they are certainly bigoted towards Muslims and other faiths and lack of faiths.
I think President Carter didn't consider that. These people now have an open forum. Before, they hid behind their keyboards. Now you are seeing them out in these protests. And they are calling him everything under the sun but "nigger".
They know they are being hypocritical towards "big Government". They know he's not doing 3/4th's of what he's being accused of. However, he is Black, his name is Barack Hussein Obama and he did grow up with Muslims. And because of those 3 facts, they do not care about anything else. We can go into how ludicrous they are, but until people from their side start denouncing this crap, they will not be silent.
Unfortunately, it's going to be one of these nuts that either kills him or attempts to. I fear for our President and our Country. It's only been 8 months. We are in for a troubling future.

Czar's
A quote from Romney: "When government is trying to take over health care, buying car companies, bailing out banks, and giving half the White House staff the title of czar – we have every good reason to be alarmed and to speak our mind!" This is him preaching to the institutionalized members, knowing they don't do their homework.
So many problems with this. First, Romney supported the bailouts. Secondly, there isn't any Government take over of Health care. It's called an "option". Choice is a good thing. Choice is what makes us Americans.
And lastly, let's talk about Czar's. Obama has 34 of them. Bush had 46 of them. Do I need to say anything else? Do my institutional brainwashed brethren know this?

Torture?
Why does our media call it Torture when other Countries do it, but not so when we do it? And they call it a Liberal Media? There is no such thing. It's a propaganda media. Fox news is just so blatantly biased that it makes the others look Liberal.
Baucus Plan is Insulting
Did you see the Baucus health plan? Is it a plan that helps out citizens in any way?
But then I remembered that the insurance industry has donated $3 Million to him, and it makes sense. And then I found out that a person who recently signed onto his staff wrote the bill and that person just left Well Point insurance, and it made even more sense.
To get a true Health Bill, we actually need someone not tainted. And I'm not sure if there is anyone that isn't.
What bugs me more, is that the overwhelming majority of Christians in this Country support "for profit" heath insurance which in my mind is against everything Christ teaches. They have substituted "Nationalism" and "Corporations" in place of God.
What a shame.
In our Country, Health Insurance is a right for the Wealthy and a privilege for the poor. Health coverage should never cost a dime. No matter what Country it is, they should cover their citizens. If you have a "for profit" Health industry, people will have their care dropped, and people will become bankrupt. Just like 62% of all bankruptcies in the U.S. last year.

8 Months Later
Well, our First Black President has been in charge for 8 months now. And what has the institutionalized brain dead anti-Christ followers done? Exactly what I thought they would do. The lower and middle class white folk have held their KKK I mean tea party rallies. Where were these rallies when our past President funded two wars without budgeting it and cut taxes too? Where were they when he sealed an entitlement program (Medicare D) that will cost trillions? Where were they when he signed off on bailing out banks without oversight? I could go on.
You know where they were? They were supporting it. After all, he was one of them. He was a middle aged White fundamentalist Christian. He was going after the Muslims. He was torturing his perceived enemies. He was protecting this "Christian" nation.
Then, a Black man, and a liberal to boot became the Leader of this nation. He's been called a socialist, marxist, fascist, muslim, racist and on and on. I've never seen such a thing. With all these protests, you'd think that He was the one that put us in the hole we're in. You'd think that he was the one that bankrupted us 30 years ago, sold arms to Iran, imported illegal drugs from South America, and took away all regulations to corporations. You'd think he was the one that advocated in favor of Corporations deserving the same constitutional rights as individuals.
In 1971, Louis Powell figured out that Institutionalized Religious folks in the midwest and south could be easily manipulated into voting against their best interests. All they had to do, was make them believe that an ideology was created for them and anyone with a "left thinking mentality" was immoral, evil and out to get them. Also, to make them feel as though Corporations were their saviors. His memo and practice of it started the process and as you see now has made most Christians to be nationalistic, idol worshippers.
The Glenn Becks, Sean Hannity's and Rush Limbaughs are all part of this philosophy. And they are damn good at what they do. They prey on peoples fears and bigotry. And these people end up supporting evilness.
When will they learn?
