Back in the Blog with Monday's Quote!

"All of these [European] countries -- and many more -- are going through painful retrenchments because they spent too much money, made too many promises and expected too little from their own citizens. The era of European austerity is upon us, because the Europeans -- or at least those in charge -- understand the mess they've made of their economies. This should present a real problem for Barack Obama and the vast (though shrinking) chorus of experts, editorialists and activists who support his agenda. In broad terms, all of the policies Obama and the Democrats have pushed are the sorts of policies the British, the French and other Europeans had for years, even decades." --columnist Jonah Goldberg

Sorry for the absence of updates. I've been busy trashing the house for Halloween...

I still find it quite amazing that there are people who are striving for a Socialist Statism agenda for this country. Historically, I can find no instance of a successful implementation of Socialism, Marxism, Fascism, or Communism. They all ended pretty badly for the general populace. Even present day Europe is experiencing a serious breakdown of their systems. Why is it we have an administration that is pushing us towards the same policies that have much of Europe going through riots?

Obamacare being one example, does anyone stop to think about this whole concept? The Federal Government is basically saying that it's their entitlement (so to speak) to make the medical decisions for us, and we have no say in the matter.

Sooo...if I understand this correctly, it's supposedly the greatest thing since Moses came out of the mountains with the ten commandments (oops..sorry; can't use a Christian religious reference...separation from church and state, you know...), but we must be forced to buy into it.  This is not Liberty, people. This whole situation stinks of tyranny. And the fact that the government is getting away with it is a prospect much worse than this issue with Obamacare. For if this stands, then what limits does the government have on controlling your life? What does this do to the founding principle of "Government by the People?"

People need to wake up and take a good hard look inside themselves...decide what is right, and stop drooling over the idea of "free stuff" from the government... remember, anything the government gives you, it must first take away from someone else.

Something to think about...
