Obama's End of Life program is very active!
This afternoon I was listening to the Rush Limbaugh show and he brought some information to light in regards to Obama's "End of Life" plan.
Obama says that there is no end of life stipulation, yet at the same time he revived a "Death Book For Americans." This was actually removed by the Bush administration last year, but Obama has shown that he really wants to find excuses to get rid of you!
On the back of the booklet is a questionnaire asking Americans what conditions they would consider "not worth living." There is even a blank spot for someone to fill in a "condition" not listed.
Here is the link to the actual pdf document entitled, “Your Life Your Choices.” Pass this information along!

Unfortunate Predictions are Becoming Reality – Part 3
This is part 3 of a series dedicated to revealing the policies of the Obama Administration. Previously I discussed the push for centralized health care and how this administration is playing patty fingers with the criminals of the world while leaving our allies out to dry.
In this article, I will discuss how the Obama Administration is pushing for the redistribution of wealth.
Prediction #3:
3. - Redistribute Wealth: Yup... remember "Joe the Plumber?"
What is the first thing Conservatives think of when it comes to the “redistribution of wealth?” For me, I remember the interview Joe had with then presidential candidate Barak Obama. Here, I think, is a more realistic view of what Obama and his supporters really feel.
What is this redistribution of wealth? It’s basically the “Robin Hood” scenario of taking from the rich to give to the poor. Now, we’ve all grown up hearing stories concerning Robin Hood. In fact, as a child, I often thought how “right” it was for him to steal from the murderous and tyrannical elite of his time. The elite were the ruling class. As an adult Conservative, I no longer agree that crime of any sort will accomplish an honorable goal, but the story itself shows how an oppressed public rose up against those who were keeping them “under foot.” Somewhat like the oppression that progressives in congress are committing today, correct?
As we can already see with his health care reform proposal (that he has yet to read), President Obama is following through with his promises to redistribute wealth. His plan is to tax those who make the most and give that money into government run social programs such as health care, welfare, and other forms of social spending.
Redistribution of wealth was first accomplished with the failed $2 trillion dollar bailout. A majority of that money went to institutions that via capitalism would have “gone under” faster. Yet, Obama rewarded the poor practices of such companies with tax payer money. In addition, a huge chunk of that “stimulus” was used to pay off his cronies in the unions as well as special interest organizations that helped him become elected. Closer examinations expose even more wasteful spending. What it has done is increased the debt each American “owes” to an astronomical amount.
Arriving on stage to the wailing sounds of this failed stimulus, there is the “Cash for Clunkers” program that encourages people to trade in their old “gas guzzling” vehicles for something that no one would purchase on their own. These are substandard economy vehicles that probably won’t last a decade. Yet our taxes are paying for this.
It is obvious that these programs are not helping with the economy what so ever. What is the President’s solution? Unbelievable as it seems, there has been talk of yet another bailout. In addition, the President’s staff hinted recently on the possibility of raising taxes on the middle class. However, almost immediately, his spokes person Gibbs stated that this was not going to happen. Who is correct here, his economic advisors or his brainless mouthpiece?
It seems quite obvious to me, and anyone who has an independent thought, that the Obama Administration and Progressive controlled congress simply cannot continue the wasteful spending they are accomplishing without an extra source of revenue from somewhere. The rich can’t foot the bill for everything, and if they could, why should they? Socialism is where everyone is on “equal” footing. It doesn’t take into account how one acquired that wealth, nor does it take into consideration those who find it acceptable to “leach” off the work of others. The Administration is even funding the Palestinians (and we know where that money is truly going).
Here’s a tip to Obama’s watch dogs and “economic advisors:” How about this? Instead of having all this wasteful spending, why not cut it instead? Then you can really lower taxes, which will have the side benefit of encouraging businesses to hire more people. Thus with more people being hired, there will be more money pouring into society’s and government coffers. With people being able to keep more of the money they earn, that will in turn encourage the economy to grow in leaps and bounds. I’m not an economist, but this seems pretty simple to understand. Well, simple unless you have been educated in
Next in the series will be an in depth examination concerning the attacks on free speech we are currently experiencing.

The Government's Use of Anger
Folks, I'm as angry about what the Obama administration is doing as the next person. I'm currently working on a series this. However, we need to be extremely careful on how we express that anger. Yelling is fine, heated arguments are fine. They are to be expected. It is how our nation started, its how it has always been run.
However, some people have pushed beyond that line by brandishing firearms when showing their anger. Others have been pushing for an open revolt. Now, before any progressives read what I'm writing here as "proof" that the conservatives and "Angry Americans" are a true threat to National security, please be aware that there have been more violent attacks on Conservative protesters then attacks on Progressives. Indeed, I'm pressed to recall a single proven attack on a Progressive made by a Conservative. However, the media lap dogs ignore this and have instead focused on those extremely rare Conservatives who are unable to restrain their rage in an appropriate fashion.
We need to gain control folks. We need to be aware that just as others are held to a higher standard of conduct (Peace Officers for example), so are we in the eyes of the media and the government. Is it fair? Of course not! But if we are not careful, the socialists in power will use every possible example, no matter how exaggerated it is, to squash our freedom of speech, and perhaps even do more.
Why am I bringing this up? I do so because of an article posted by the AP today.
Below is the text. Before you read, I ask you to consider the implications of what certain government organizations are saying. Please do not misunderstand this posting. I am not calling for us to stop our protests. We need to continue with them. We need to make the rest of
WASHINGTON (AP) - Militia groups with gripes against the government are regrouping across the country and could grow rapidly, according to an organization that tracks such trends.
The stress of a poor economy and a liberal administration led by a black president are among the causes for the recent rise, the report from the Southern Poverty Law Center says. Conspiracy theories about a secret Mexican plan to reclaim the Southwest are also growing amid the public debate about illegal immigration.
Bart McEntire, a special agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, told SPLC researchers that this is the most growth he's seen in more than a decade.
"All it's lacking is a spark," McEntire said in the report.
It's reminiscent of what was seen in the 1990s—right-wing militias, people ideologically against paying taxes and so-called "sovereign citizens" are popping up in large numbers, according to the report to be released Wednesday. The SPLC is a nonprofit civil rights group that, among other activities, investigates hate groups.
Last October, someone from the Ohio Militia posted a recruiting video on YouTube, billed as a "wake-up call" for
"Things are bad, things are real bad, and it's going to be a lot worse," said the man on the video, who did not give his name. "Our country is in peril."
The man is holding an AR-15 semiautomatic rifle, and he encourages viewers to buy one.
While anti-government sentiment has been on the rise over the last two years, there aren't as many threats and violent acts at this point as there were in the 1990s, according to the report. That movement bore the likes of Timothy McVeigh, who in 1995 blew up a federal building in
But McEntire fears it's only a matter of time. (emphasis mine)
These militias are concentrated in the
The militia movement of the 1990s gained traction with growing concerns about gun control, environmental laws and anything perceived as liberal government meddling.
The spark for that movement came in 1992 with an FBI standoff with white separatist Randall Weaver at
Now officials are seeing a new generation of activists, according to the report. The law center spotlights Edward Koernke, a
Last year, officials warned about an increase in activity from militias in a five-year threat projection by the Homeland Security Department.
"White supremacists and militias are more violent and thus more likely to conduct mass-casualty attacks on the scale of the 1995
A series of domestic terrorism incidents over the past year have not been directly tied to organized militias, but the rhetoric behind some of the crimes are similar with that of the militia movement. For instance, the man charged with the April killings of three
The FBI's assistant director for counterterrorism, Michael Heimbach, said that law enforcement officials need to identify people who go beyond hateful rhetoric and decide to commit violent acts and crimes. Heimbach said one of the bigger challenges is identifying the lone-wolf offenders.
One alleged example of a lone-wolf offender is the 88-year-old man charged in the June shooting death of a guard at the
Notice how the AP threw that last blurb on there? Remember how the media played him as a Conservative Christian? It turns out that the facts are quite different. He was not a Conservative, and most assuredly not a Christian. This has been pointed out by many Conservative bloggers and Conservative news agencies. They have backed this up with solid facts. However as we all know, the mainstream media either did not acknowledge the truth when it came out, or simply refused to report on it. Indeed, as we can see, they maintain that he is a "conservative terrorist."
We are treading on dangerous ground. We must go into this battle of philosophies with that knowledge firmly entrenched in our minds, and react accordingly.
