Is a Classic Battle Brewing for 2016, Warren v. Cruz?


It seems that the strongest base of support on the Left and on the Right is rallying around two true believers in their respective ideologies. Which way would America choose if she was given two “pure” choices instead of the pretend politicians who strive to be everything to everybody, but stand for nothing? What does Hilary bring to the table? She brings a boatload of baggage beginning with her handling of Benghazi, the BenghaziGate scandal. Who can forget those infamous words, “What difference does it make?” It makes very big differences, Mrs. Rodham-Clinton, a very big difference. And what if the GOP produces another McCain, Romney, or Bush who merely mouth conservative and Republican platform ideas, but once challenged back off quicker than a roach when it sees a can of Raid coming its way? I didn’t really mean to insult cockroaches by comparing them to RINOs.


We need a fair fight of ideologies. If the Americans are once again hoodwinked by the Democrats or if they allow the Republicans to nominate another unprincipled Democrat-lite candidate, then we deserve to lose our country.

What I would be anxious to see would be legitimate battle between the fake Indian, Elizabeth Warren, versus the real Texan, Ted Cruz. It would be a real dramatic and vicious dogma fight. It would be a battle between

·         Radical Liberalism versus Patriotic Conservativism

·         Wrong versus Right

·         Evil or bad policies versus moral or good policies

·         Pink versus Red, White, and Blue

Let the electioneering begin!

How Conservative is the GOP, Really?

The National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) has been spamming my email account for the past few months and more intensely as the Election nears. Multiple “individuals” like Joe, Sue, Abagail, etc. urge me to send money. Most of the emails I just delete. However, today I read one. That email I received today illustrates the deceitfulness of political parties. Here is how the email solicitation closed, the emphasis is mine:

“…We are so close to building a new conservative Congress, and electing a new generation of conservative leaders to the United States Senate.”  ---NRSC 
 
This is the same GOP that played dirty tricks in Mississippi against a strong conservative Chris McDaniel in the Runoff Election with entrenched RINO Thad Cochran. I have decided to withdraw all support of the Republican in favor of directly supporting proven conservative candidates, such as those vetted by or endorsed by such respected groups as the Senate Conservative Fund.

I definitely hope and pray that despite the GOP, many strong conservatives will be elected to Congress, both the House and the Senate, tomorrow. We have had enough of the Roves, the McCains, the Grahams, and the Portmans, the so-called conservative Republicans who say one thing to get elected, and act like progressive Democrats once in office.
I’m sure of only one thing both parties are corrupt and will lie to gain and retain power. That is why we need to turn out to vote to turn out the dead wood that is just taking up space and doing all they can to preserve the status quo. Can you hear me now?

Tomorrow’s election is important. Conservative and Christians must vote and vote their consciences.
Please vote, if you haven't already...

Iron Lady's Legacy Lives On

I responded to an article on Alternet.org, “Singer Morrissey's Scathing Letter to the Public About Margaret Thatcher: "A Terror Without an Atom of Humanity." The article amounted to a hit piece on one of the greatest world leaders of the 21st century. Mr. or Ms. Morrissey, like many a ‘singer’ in the music world today, probably was so stoned between 1978 through 1990, that they didn’t notice the good Margaret Thatcher did for Britain and the world. Here are my comments to the article… 

First off, who is Morrissey? I have never heard of her or him. I have, however, heard of Lady Thatcher

The biggest thing this great woman 'hated' with a just passion was socialism. Socialism had nearly ruined Britain before Mrs. Thatcher time as prime minister. Just like socialism is systematically destroying ('transforming', 'change you can believe in') our once great (but now perilously sliding in a 'progressively' downward spiral) nation with renewed vengeance the past 4 plus years. 

The Morrisseys of the world disliked Thatcher with a passion particularly because she did not accept the socialist utopian line. It has never worked. It never will. She fought it and had some degree of success, to Great Britain's benefit. 

What America now desperately needs is passionate conservative leadership like a Michele Bachmann  or an Allen West could provide. This kind of leader would uncompromisingly fight socialism and return American to some semblance of respect and exceptional-ism for which it was once known.


Among other things, America needs a leader like the Iron Lady, not the candidates the GOP and Media keeps foisting on America like the liberals-in- ‘conservative’-garb John (the moderate maverick) McCain or Willard (thought-I-could-sell-America-that-I’m-conservative) Romney.

Portman: A Painful Admission or a Pitiful Betrayal of Principle?

One of my two Senators, neither of which is worth a plug nickel, Rob Portman is a McCain-Romney-Lugar Republican. You spell that R-I-N-O!  George Voinovich, Portman’s Predecessor was a RINO, too. One characteristics of RINOs is that they change their minds and ‘convictions’ almost as much as babies’ diapers need changed. Their promises and their convictions are also full of it…

Well, Senator Portman did it this time. He finds out that his son is a homosexual. So that revelation ‘forces’ him to change his mind in Romneylike fashion. Flip flop, flip flop like a fish out of water… In a tweet earlier this evening I used the words “unprincipled” and “selfish” in describing Portman’s position reversal on the same-sex “marriage” issue. Where is his courage? Where is his conviction? Maybe he never had any true convictions. He may be wishy-washy, just like the “conservative” George W. Bush spending like a liberal much of his time in office.

The following is a press release that I thought captured the essence of what the wayward senator did by betraying traditional, sacred, and biblical marriage because of his “love” for his son.  What his son really needed was tough love, to remind him that homosexuality is an immoral, unnatural, unhealthy chosen course of behavior and life style.  Unfortunately Portman is too typical of the permissive parent who chooses to ignore truth and principle.

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Traditional Values Coalition president Andrea Lafferty issued the following statement in reaction to Ohio Senator Rob Portman's recent repudiation of his stance against gay marriage in reaction to his son's homosexual preferences:

These past few days have been very painful ones for me.

Earlier this week one of my children came to me and told me something which was shocking.

He is a drunk driver and has been driving drunk regularly since college.

I have taken several days to reflect on this and I have decided to reverse my earlier opposition to drunk driving.

My child is a drunk driver and I love him. It is a part of his identity, who he is.

I have reflected on all of this, consulted Scripture (the story of Jesus changing water into wine when the wedding he was attending in Cana ran dry is particularly relevant) and decided that drunk driving is a generational issue. Younger people take a much different view of drunk driving than older people.

Therefore, today I am reversing my opposition to drunk driving. My child has caused me to revisit a decision which, up until now, had been based simply on morality.

My child is a drunk driver. That has personalized the issue for me and taken me above the whole discussion of the morality of it. It is now personal with me.

In addition, I would like to say that drunk driving will make all of us stronger drivers. Think of how much more interesting driving will be in the future if more people have the freedom to drive drunk. It will sharpen the defensive driving skills of the rest of us.

"This unreleased press statement follows the same twisted, self-serving logic that several public officials have used in explaining their switch from opposing homosexual marriage to favoring it.

"If you remember nothing else from this exchange, remember this: our children are learners and unable to determine morality and then hand it down to their parents and other impressionable adults. This is one factor in why our culture is so morally upside down!

"This whole line of argument suggesting that opposition to homosexual “marriage” is a personal and “generational” matter is equally silly.

"There are absolutes. There is right and there is wrong. There are objective truths. A civilization which has no governing principles or laws is doomed to collapse. That is the soul of conservatism.

"The tough part of being a parent is telling one of those young souls whom we have been charged with raising that he or she is wrong. But because it is tough that doesn’t mean that we are excused from doing it or we can delegate our responsibility to a teacher or “the village” or some other entity.

"Parents hold the primary responsibility for the upbringing of their children. Parents are fully capable of still loving a child who is wrong.

"American parents hold the power to begin the process of reversing this dangerous downward trend. Our children look to us for direction and we owe them more than a collective shrug.

"I wish no harm to either Senator Portman or his son but they are wrong.

"And Senator Portman’s attempt to use his position in the Senate to affect the future path of our culture and the lives of other Americans compounds the wrong.

"Being a good parent is infinitely more difficult than being a Senator or President. And telling someone you love that he or she is wrong is the most difficult part of that difficult job.

"A nation which recognizes this is on the road to a vast spiritual recovery."

(Please Note: The introduction to this article is satire. Drunk driving is immoral. I abhor it. I also believe homosexuality is immoral and sinful.)

Big Primary Election Today from AK to AZ

In Alaska I would love to see challenger Joe Miller beat down the incumbent Senator Lisa Murkowski, who is no conservative. Sarah Palin endorses Joe Miller. I think Miller has a good chance in this race.

In Arizona I would like to see either J.D. Hayworth or Jim Deakin upset incumbent Senator John McCain in the Republican primary election. Palin endorses McCain, proving she is very fallible.

Murkowski and McCain are symptomatic of all that is wrong with the Republican Party - its left wing. Murkowski and McCain are symptomatic of all that is wrong with the Republican wing Party. Neither are consistent conservatives, nor adhere to conservative principles. On many issues they are essentially Democrats.

Jim Deakin for U.S. Senate




The above is the first video in a series showing the debate between J.D. Hayworth, John McCain, and Jim Deakin for Republican nomination for U.S. Senate in Arizona.  The links for parts 2-7 are below:


This debate is hilarious.  Hayworth and McCain keep on bashing each other, but they barely pay any attention to anything Jim Deakin says.  Every time Deakin pointed out that both Hayworth and McCain voted over and over again for unconstitutional bills, Hayworth would always change the subject (usually by attacking McCain).  Neither of them made any attempt to use the Constitution to justify their votes. 

The only thing that Hayworth could say against Deakin is that he is taking votes away from him so that McCain would win.  McCain wisely refrained from attacking Deakin, because it is clear to see that he is right.  Everybody laughed when McCain claimed that he didn’t vote for amnesty.  McCain made some flimsy excuse for voting against the Bush tax cuts.  (Technically he is right.  You can’t cut taxes and increase spending at the same time.  But McCain voted for very expensive bills himself so he has no right to complain about that.)

The only possible intelligent thing that Hayworth said in the debate was that Jacob Howard, the U.S. Senator who introduced the 14th amendment into the Senate, made statements indicating that the meaning of the phrase “subject to the jurisdiction [of the United States]” would not include illegal aliens.  (This is a fact which I have not verified.  It was a member of the House, John Bingham, who actually wrote the damn thing.) 


When McCain and Hayworth were arguing about whose immigration plan was best, McCain pointed out that he could get things done--his bill passed, but Hayworth's didn't.  But Deakin wisely pointed out that there has been enough immigration legislation.  We only need to enforce the laws already on the books (but only the ones which are constitutional).  Everything else about the illegal immigration issue is hogwash.

All through the debate, Deakin fumbled over his words.  This was obviously because he was very nervous.  Toward the end, after McCain actually stuttered a bit, Deakin said, “You just did that to make me feel better.”  That was very clever and quick-witted.  A good joke can loosen you up and help you overcome nervousness. The only real mistake Deakin made was saying that Hayworth would have voted for the Troubled Asset Relief Program (the bailouts).  

I am not just endorsing Deakin because he is an underdog and not a Washington insider.  He is clearly has the truth on his side.  Congress has no authority to enact legislation if the power is not expressly delegated to it by the Constitution.  This is crystal clear to anyone who has read the Constitution with an open mind.  The tenth amendment says it all.  McCain and Hayworth had absolutely no defense for their unconstitutional votes because there is no defense for them!  All they could say is “you had better vote for me or the Obama agenda will continue” or they would list off their endorsements.  Jim, on the other hand, is a 9/12 candidate, but he did not even mention this in debate.  And despite the well-crafted question designed to discredit Deakin’s campaign by saying that the Tea Party wants him to quit because his campaign is costing Hayworth the election, several local Arizona Tea Party affiliates actually support Jim Deakin.   

Thanks to Michael (aka Mox News, and formerly C-SpanJunkie and Earth2Obama) for posting this important debate on YouTube!

McCain’s for Amnesty, Remember on August 24, 2010

Hat tip goes to HotAirPundit for posting this new TV ad by an opponent of mostly liberal John ‘conservative before the August 24 Arizona Republican Primary Election” McCain. According to J.D. Hayworth's YouTube video description, “JD Hayworth launched a new television advertisement statewide highlighting McCain's long held support for amnesty for illegal aliens. As a U.S. Senator representing Arizona, JD Hayworth will implement border security measures to protect Arizonans and Americans because he believes that border security is national security.” I did not vote for John McCain for President in 2008 and urge all Arizona Republicans to fire him as Senator in August 2010!





"I helped author with Senator Kennedy comprehensive immigration reform and fought for it twice...." --- John McCain (RINO-AZ)

"I stood with Ted Kennedy and John McCain and took on this tough issue." --- President Barry Soetoro aka Barack Obama

Brewer on the Border

Hat tip goes to Darla of ResistNet.com who sent me an email containing a link to the video below.

Dear Mr. President: Secure the Border!



From the YouTube description of the above video:

SecureTheBorderAZ June 25, 2010 1:00 “Earlier this month, Governor Jan Brewer sat in the Oval Office with President Barack Obama to discuss the critical issue of border security. The Governor personally related to the President the concerns of millions of Arizonans over the lack of security on Arizona's southern border. During their visit, President Obama committed to present details, within two weeks of their meeting, regarding his plans to commit National Guard troops to the Arizona border and commit to spend $500 million in additional funds on border security.

"Governor Brewer remains eager to receive the specific details of President Obama's border security plans. She continues to extend an invitation to the President to visit with families living along the southwestern border and see the situation firsthand.”


Like his predecessors, President Soetoro alias Obama refuses to act on securing the border. Instead he carves out a piece of Arizona and says Americans be warned not to enter. He is essentially conceding a portion of America to the drug dealers, human traffickers and Islamic terrorists and other undesirables or criminals. Or are they just new Friends of Obama (FOOs)?
.
No ‘comprehensive’ immigration reform (amnesty). We must first and foremost secure our borders. This extreme border insecurity issue is one of the issues we all must remember in November. We need to clean out the House and the Senate. We need real conservatives in Congress. Conservatives who will implement conservative principles. Not John McCain conservatives, which say one thing to get elected, but do something very liberal during the rest of the time in office. Vote out John McCain and the other pro-amnesty members of Congress!

Marco Rubio for U.S. Senate – Florida

Hat tip to HotAirPundit which posted the following link on its website recently. Marco Rubio, a true conservative, is greatly needed in the U.S. Senate. Electing Charlie Crist is like cloning John McCain. One of him is already too much, I’d like to see them both soundly defeated this spring!

Sidekick Sarah sells out supporting McCain

Palin Backing McCain Hurts Her Conservative Credentials
.
John "Gang of 14, Amnesty for illlegals" McCain is no conservative, except maybe a few months prior to his next election. He is a RINO in the worst sense of that acronym. Although Sarah Palin may think she is being loyal to the man who placed her on the national stage a couple of autumns ago, she is deceived. In reality the principles she so eloquently espoused during the campaign helped him because his media-hyped and generated, faltering campaign needed a boost.

.
Now, her continued intimate involvement with Johnny Mac in his Senate re-election campaign will hurt her, even if it, unfortunately, might help him. She apparently is blind to his having used her for political, not principled reasons. McCain is a mealy mouthed moderate maverick. He is loyal only to himself. I would like to see a more conservative candidate such as J.D. Hayworth win the Republican nomination in Arizona. But, much like President Bush chose to support the liberal Arlen Specter over the Conservative Pat Toomey in the Pennsylvania GOP primary election six years ago, now Sarah chooses to do the exact same thing by supporting the runaway from conservatism maverick McCain.

I think Sarah Palin is making a mistake by supporting and campaigning with and for John McCain. Regrettably, it damages her conservative standing. You are known by the friends you keep. It weakens her chances for higher office. She now must be content with being a pretty talking head and a ‘conservative’ commentator and reality show star on Fox TV.
.

Do you think Sarah is a sell-out to true conservatism by supporting this fake conservative?

Victoria Jackson spoofs Meghan “a RINO like her dear old dad” McCain

I found this video on Victoria Jackson’s Facebook wall . . . The YouTube description reads, “Chase Peterson interviews a Republican so forward-thinking, (that) she's very nearly a Progressive Democrat. The Pasadena Tea Party Patriots are proud to feature Victoria Jackson (Saturday Night Live - SNL) and Basil Hoffman (Seinfeld, Milagro Beanfield) in a parody of a Republican RINO run amok.”

The video captures the essence of the McCain’s RINO principles, or lack thereof . . .

Where, oh where is that Birth Certificate?


Hat tip to KatyinIndy on Facebook for this photo and and to KC for the story.

KCTV5 in Kansas City, Missouri reported on its website that the sign pictured above, which stands along busy I-70 is causing a little stir.

Their report describes the sign as “‘How do you like your change now? Obama Nation. They are coming for you! The Taxpayer. First and Second Amendments are in jeopardy. Live free or Die.’ There is also a hammer and sickle on the sign.”

A pastor originally from England is quoted in the KCTV5 report saying, “We lived in a socialist society and I guess what I am seeing in America is that we are pushing to some of those ways now. Especially the hospitalization. It's taken away some of our freedoms as Americans."

This sign is only one of a number of signs being raised across America, which call in question the qualifications of the current occupier of the oval office, Barry Soetoro a/k/a Barack Obama. Some doubt, including me, that this president is a native-born American.

The lesson to be learned from the presidency of Soetoro/Obama is the importance of a proper vetting process, especially so in regard to the highest office in the land. Good business practice and commonsense demand that a thorough background check is done on every employee. America has and will suffer because of lack of due diligence in qualifying this candidate. Even John McCain was thorough scrutinized, having been born on a military base in Panama. The pitiful press, the corrupt congress, the demonic Democrat Party, and the egotistical elitist Obamas’ equally share the blame of a potentially fraudulent President.

More billboards like the one pictured above need to sprout up all over this land until either the proper documents including the long-form birth certificate are produced.
.
The sign may, indeed, be offensive to some, but no more offensive than the mischief being caused daily by the President and the thugs that surround him in the White House and his party's leadership in the Congress. And not more offensive than the President's apparent disregard for the U.S. Constitution in the matter of qualification to be POTUS.

Border Double Crossing


Hat Tip to Virginia of the Reform Party, who sent this content to us in an email.

A point to ponder!

"Why is it.......if you cross the North Korean border illegally you get 12 years hard labor......but if you cross the U.S. border illegally you get

· a drivers license,
· social security card,
· welfare,
· (free education,)
· food stamps, and
· free health care
?

Whose bright idea was this??????" Chuck Schumer and Barry Soetoro aka Barack Obama Democrats and George Bush and John McCain Republicans.

Close the borders now and stop Amnesty and the ongoing Illegal Alien invasion . . . a further drain on a weakened and troubled economy . . . But for political purposes and potential votes Soetoro alias Obama and John “Amnesty” McCain will have none of it . . .

You Go Michelle (Malkin, that is)

Matt Lauer interviewed conservative Michelle Malkin on NBC’s Today Show yesterday. The exchange between Lauer and Malkin was telling. The discussion regarded the recent U.S. Senate Judiciary vote that recommend Sonia Sotomayor be sent to the entire sent to be voted on for confirmation as Supreme Court Justice. Hat tip is due to NewsBusters.com for the following excerpt of the interview transcript. I was very impressed with Michelle’s quick wit and concise critique of Lindsey Graham.




LAUER: After the, the last election it was said that the Republicans need to broaden the tent, they need to reach out to minorities. Reach out to Hispanics. Is that, are those six "no" votes gonna hurt Republicans down the road?

MALKIN: No, because they were six principled votes AGAINST RACIAL PREFERENCES and the idea that somehow IDENTITY POLITICS has a place on the court of law.

LAUER: Why do you think Lindsey Graham voted in favor?

MALKIN: I think Lindsey Graham has a history of PANDERING to this idea that somehow the, the party should broaden itself for the sake of PANDERING TO DIVERSITY.


Michelle Malkin demonstrates that she is a ‘nice’ Ann Coulter, every bit as perceptive, brilliant, wise, and sarcastic. The things that Malkin said about Graham holds true for Ohio’s George Voinovich, Maine's Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins, Indiana’s Dick Lugar and Arizona’s John McCain. All six are unprincipled pandering, wishy-washy, politically correct moderate liberal RINOs, who cannot be trusted as true conservatives on very many important issues.

Is the NAE Becoming Like the NEA? Part 4

I began a series of articles this past Sunday. The series is based primarily on the God-insulting, impertinent, insolent responses of Rev. Richard Cizik, the VP of Governmental Affairs with the National Association of Evangelicals (NAE), in an interview he gave to the NPR radio show (Fresh Air) hostess Terri Gross. Today’s post contains more excerpts from the NPR Fresh Air interview of the so-called Rev. Richard Cizik. This article will explore some of the thoughts of Rev. Cizik on the future of the evangelical movement, Sarah Palin and I will offer a few more comments as to what I heard Cizik say.

EVANGELICALS, THE 2008 ELECTION & BEYOND

The laid back erudite Terri Gross, the hostess of the NPR radio show, Fresh Air, began her December 2, 2008 show with these words, “The evangelical base was pivotal in the election and reelection of George W. Bush. But it wasn’t enough to get a McCain Palin victory. So in this post election period, what influence does the evangelical community have in the Republican Party? In other words, what will its goals be during the Obama administration?”

Gross inquired of Cizik, “Do you think that the evangelical base has lost any clout within the Republican Party because the Republicans lost the Presidential election?”

Cizik's answer was unequivocal, "Oh, it is inescapable, that loss of clout. You hear it in the Party’s leaders who are questioning this. They know, that is the leaders of the GOP, that they cannot win without these votes, but they can’t win the rest of the voters they need at times because of the way evangelicals have behaved within the political parties.”


Gross anxiously asked, “What do you mean by that?”

Cizik boldly declared, “Well, I remember Dick Armey once referred to one of our leaders as a bully and a thug, well those are harsh words. But that was a leader Republican Party referred to as to how he was getting pressure. Well, the tactics that have been employed have altogether backfired, it seems to me. Everyone knows that. And so, look, you have to have vision. And you have to have a strategy, a strategy that works. And if your strategy is not working then rethink it. And so to make its way forward the Republican Party is going to have to, I think, come up with a vision that appeals to people. A strategy that, in fact, works, and its adherence to those who claim it as their own, have to employee tactics that don’t destroy it in the meanwhile."

SARAH PALIN

Gross mockingly theorized, “I’m imaging you didn’t agree with Sarah Palin on environmental issues, for example, her emphasis on “drill, baby, drill.” And also the fact that she wasn’t sure if human behavior contributed to climate change. Now, climate change and the environment issues you are trying to put much more toward the top of the evangelical agenda.”

Cizik, treasonous to the cause of Christ and to conservatism, replies, “I could not have disagreed with her more. Just a year ago, we found out from climate scientists that the melt in the Arctic had turned into a rout. It was happening so fast that it was like your hair turning gray overnight . . . Well, that is what happened to the environment, an area the size of Colorado disappearing every week. And the Northwest Passage was staying open all September for the first time in history. To look at this and not see what is happening, I think is, well it is sort of ignorance is strength idea. Well, NOT. (laughing) It is not strength. Look, strength is knowing what is happening to the world around us. And moreover, as a Christian we can’t claim to love the Creator and abuse the world in which we live. To do so is like claiming to be a fan of Shakespeare and then burn his plays."

GROSS: “Is there a big debate in evangelical circles now about what the future of Sarah Palin should be in the Republican Party? Whether she is the future or whether she is a problem?”

CIZIK: “Oh I think there is a certain amount of that debate going on, but I think people are sort of content to let Alaskans decide that before she becomes a national candidate, and she has to run for re-election, right?

Gross leading, even longingly asks, “So you are thinking that Alaskans will vote her out of Office and thus ending her political career?

Cizik responded, “Maybe, I don’t know. I don’t think that you can humbly walk into the future and not understand that we don’t know all the answers. And if you don’t have a little bit of self-awareness about that, well I don’t think you can embody the Christian values as humility and justice and walking humbly with your Lord. There was something missing there, that I just didn’t see and you are sensing it here. In other words, a certain humility about her that’s all. (Gross uh ha) I like that, I like, look forward in seeing that demonstrated in Barack Obama policies."

Cizik continued, “The younger evangelicals have a different attitude, in fact, even toward the use of the military. I happen to be among (nearly giggling) these evangelical young people, even though, by age, I might be qualified, right? And the idea that, well you can have sort of an anti-science, anti-intellectual and walk into the world with a stick and hope to be able to win these wars, you can’t win these kinds of wars we are fighting with a big stick, we know that.”

COMMENTARY


In discussing the loss of clout among evangelicals, Cizik deliberately failed to mention the fact that conservatives and Christian where provided by the GOP a less than satisfactory top-of-the-ticket candidate. He was a candidate favored and acclaimed in the primaries over the somewhat pro-life Huckabee, for example. Actually until Sarah Palin breathed life into the GOP campaign it was floundering, dead. I for one, even with Palin on the ticket would not vote for the compromiser, the RINO McCain. I voted for someone other than the two major party candidates. So I believe many Christians and conservatives sat out the election rather than endorse the past liberal schizophrenic gyrations of moderate-to-liberal McCain.

Speaking of suspicious and virulent tactics, I would like to ask Cizik about the tactics used by his friends on the left like the homosexual activists, the environmental activists who use violence, slander, intimidation in pursuing their political goals. He does not mention or condemn them. Or what about the Obama campaign and Democrats using ACORN to check in registering voters illegal?


Cizik strikes me as caring more about the future of the earth than he is about the future of America as a Democratic Republic or of the Judeo-Christian value system. And this man represents evangelicals in the halls of congress? What a waste of Christian resources. He should be supporting the causes promoting pro-life and pro-marriage issues rather than the heavily Marxist influenced extreme environmentalism that he seems so passionate about and which he articulate so well and convincingly. Cizik may be an effective spokesman for Green Peace or Save the Whales than he is supposedly representing the name of the Savior of the World, at that he is failing miserably if this interview is any indication as to how he goes about his job.

I detect a shared and fundamental loathing of Sarah Palin and all she represents, both conservatively and as a true Christian in values and principles, by both the liberal journalist Gross her apostate false Christian bedfellow Cizik. Cizik so much as called Governor Palin ignorant, unjust, and proud. To me those adjectives befit Barack Obama more than they do Palin.

Conversely, from what I gather from Cizik’s words throughout the interview, he has more in common and that pro-death, pro-homosexual, pro-global warming, tree hugging believer in black liberation theology Obama than he does with Palin. This to me is a strong indication that Cizik is an impostor, an interloper, a false-prophet and a wolf in sheep’s clothing. I detested Palin’s running mate, John McCain, but saw Palin as an otherwise ray of sunshine among the darkness exuded by McCain, Biden and Obama. Furthermore, her executive experience in running a business, a town and a state exceeded that of the three men in the race, combined. Actually the only thing Mr. Obama ran successfully his whole life was his mouth.

Here's How Obama Got Elected

KC sent me a link to the website mentioned below, which triggered this article. He described the link as "'Obaminites' interviewed, the products of our public schools."

This article will demonstrate that the assertion made by some that the mainstream media influenced the election of Barack Obama is beyond mere speculation or sour grapes. It is evidence to back up the fact that the media directly influenced and altered the outcome of this year's presidential election. They essentially unduly interfered in the Democratic process.

John Ziegler on his website, "HowObamaGotElected.com"
writes, “On November 4th, 2008 millions of Americans were shocked that a man of Barack Obama's limited experience, extreme liberal positions and radical political alliances could be elected President of the United States. For many of these Americans, the explanation was rather simple... the news media, completely enamored with Obama, simply refused to do their job.

“On Election day twelve Obama voters were interviewed extensively right after they voted to learn how the news media impacted their knowledge of what occurred during the campaign. These voters were chosen for their apparent intelligence/verbal abilities and willingness to express their opinions to a large audience. The rather shocking video below seeks to provide some insight into which information broke through the news media clutter and which did not.”

THE VIDEO

Here is the John Ziegler video which can be found on
www.HowObamaGotElected.com. This is a documentary showing twelve people, who admitted they voted for Obama. They were asked the same series of twelve questions to determine how well they knew the political environment in which they voted.

How Obama Got Elected... Interviews With Obama Voters




ZOGBY POLL: ALMOST NO OBAMA VOTERS ACE ELECTION TEST

John Ziegler then commissioned Zogby to run a scientific poll for him of over 500 persons who voted for Obama. He then compared the results and to the video he did on Election Day of some of the typical voters who voted for Barack Hussein Obama.

Here are some of the results from the very enlightening Zogby poll.


512 Obama Voters 11/13/08-11/15/08 MOE +/- 4.4 points

97.1% High School Graduate or higher, 55% College Graduates

Results to 12 simple Multiple Choice Questions

57.4% could NOT correctly say which party controls congress (50/50 shot just by guessing)

71.8% could NOT correctly say Joe Biden quit a previous campaign because of plagiarism (25% chance by guessing)

82.6% could NOT correctly say that Barack Obama won his first election by getting opponents kicked off the ballot (25% chance by guessing)

88.4% could NOT correctly say that Obama said his policies would likely bankrupt the coal industry and make energy rates skyrocket (25% chance by guessing)

56.1% could NOT correctly say Obama started his political career at the home of two former members of the Weather Underground (25% chance y guessing).

And yet.....

Only 13.7% failed to identify Sarah Palin as the person on which their party spent $150,000 in clothes

Only 6.2% failed to identify Palin as the one with a pregnant teenage daughter

And 86.9 % thought that Palin said that she could see Russia from her "house," even though that was Tina Fey who said that!!

Only 2.4% got at least 11 correct.

Only .5% got all of them correct. (And we "gave" one answer that was technically not Palin, but actually Tina Fey)

CONCLUSION

Ziegler concludes that the Zogby survey found that most Obama voters remembered negative coverage of McCain/Palin statements but struggled to correctly answer questions about coverage associated with Obama/Biden. Why is this? Ziegler concludes that it is primarily because of the media’s "scandalous and the mainstream media’s malpractice." I would add that the media’s deliberate and deep seated bias and manipulation of its election coverage was slanted almost exclusively in favor of the Obama/Biden ticket.
