Nikki Haley

Gov. Nikki Haley was recently once more accused of tax fraud which turned out to be very very untrue. Not only did this look bad on Gov. Haley at the time but worst yet it once more makes bloggers in general look unprofessional, no news agency should've carried a anonymous blog as fact.  http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/219333-irs-not-investigating-nikki-haley-for-alleged-tax-fraud

Now were going to get my preaching part, this goes out to all bloggers of the political nature. Right, left or middle I don't care what your political leanings are, when you publish a lie not only do you hurt yourself and your reputation but you hurt  the rest of us in the blogging world. Yes we all make mistakes on our blogs I made one or two online myself I do try to go back and correct things and posted an apology when I'm wrong and advise everyone to do the same.if any of you bloggers out there want us to be looked at as professionals please keep this in mind.

Rest in Peace Earl Scruggs

Looks Like God needed a little picking , rest in peace Mr Scruggs

I won't be holding my breath

I won't be holding my breath as we wait for the Supreme Court justices to hand down an opinion on Obama care. I know that it looks like that the court in general is leaning toward making at least the mandate that we have to buy health insurance unconstitutional and there are many that believe that the court will make the entire bill unconstitutional, in my humble opinion here at old boy conservative I believe that it's a long time off and tell we hear the opinion of the judges, actually I believe it's been stated that the opinion won't come down until sometime mid-summer. And here's where things may get complicated as we know as of right now the Supreme Court is pretty much balanced as for as liberals and conservative judges go and like any government agency there are politics involved.

I unfortunately don't believe the entire thing will be struck down I believe over the next few months that political pressure from the White House and Congress will lead to a compromise so that the individual mandate is removed but most of the bill other than that will be left intact I could be wrong but I honestly don't think so.

I honestly do believe that our healthcare system is in need of a major overhaul, I honestly believe that the best thing that could happen to health insurance is that it be treated much like car insurance we the people should be able to shop around all over the country not just with in our state for health insurance I believe this would bring down prices for premiums but also make money for the insurance companies a little healthy competition is good for any business. So let's hope in the long run that's what happens.

In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith

“In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”
― Theodore Roosevelt

this is the way it used to be , when you became an American or let me clarify that when you became a US citizen you were expected to give all your royalties to the USA you are no longer Chinese, Italian, East Indian, are Japanese you were an American citizen. That's why we were called the great mixing pot we welcome in all legal immigrants, I'm not saying it was easy on the the folks coming in we although that the Irish and the Italians just to name a few were treated like second-class citizens when they first came here but that didn't stop them from being the best citizens they could be.I Have a friend  about the same age as I am her parents immigrated from Japan many years ago. I assumed that she could speak Japanese as well as English to my surprise she tell me she could not speak a word of Japanese. When she was born her parents taught her only English when she asked why they had never taught her Japanese simple explanation was we're no longer Japanese we are now Americans and we speak American. That's the way it should be but unfortunately in the last decade or so we seem to have lost them because the mixing pot mentality. You see and hear more and more people speaking and acting like the country they immigrated from and unfortunately this has a separating effect on people in general. I truly believe that we need to go back to the old mixing pot days and all become one country and one people

Happy St.Paddy Day

The Southern dilemma

If you kept track of last night's primaries you would notice it was a very close race for the front three separating each candidates in some counties in  Alabama and Mississippi by less than 100 votes in my humble opinion this is what I like to call the southern dilemma these two states are part of what we lovingly call the Bible Belt, this is where the majority of Southern Baptist, Methodist and Presbyterian call home, now don't get me wrong I love the South that's where I was born and raised in till I was 18 and moved to the West Coast.. The dilemma  these folks were facing was and is that the three front-runners in most of their minds are not true Christians, they were faced with a Mormon and two Catholics and in my humble opinion they probably thought to themselves well we had JFK and he was a Catholic and he wasn't too bad so let's pick the enemy we know and not the one we don't. In all honesty I am truly surprised that Ron Paul did not carry these two states his religious views are more in line with the Bible Belt than the other three.

I will begrudgingly give my congratulations to Rick Santorum for his wins I personally still don't believe that he will be nominee but that's just my opinion.

Keystone pipeline why not?

Keystone pipeline why not?the Keystone pipeline project took another hit in the Senate today the Democrats once again put down a Republican move to approve the pipelines construction. What gets me is this this is a shovel ready jobs for many many people all the away from truck drivers to welders to all the little towns that this pipeline would come close to that would feed and house the workers as it was being built. I thought that Obama wanted shovel ready jobs to happen. as

It would seem to me Obama and most Democrats really don't want us to come out of this recession in my humble opinion they are acting more like Keystone cops then they are concerned legislators



I also think that Obama and the Democrats think this recession or depression is some kind of sick joke, I think it's time that we do a a little housecleaning in Washington not only do we need to replace the president with a good strong Republican but we need to take control of both houses as well so we can get our country back on its feet and back to its greatness.

Close only counts

I keep hearing how close Ohio primary was between Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum. Here's the deal folks like my daddy used to say close only counts for three things horseshoes, hand grenades and bombs. If it's not one of those three it's a loss, one or 200 it does not matter you win or you lose enough with this crap.

Rick Santorum.possibly could have won if he had his organization in order and working right as one news pundit put it if Santorum can't get his own organization together and getting registered in all the counties of Ohio what makes us think that he can run a country and this is not the only time his organization has let them down he also managed not to get registered in three states which in the long run is going to cost him.I personally feel that Santorum just doesn't have what it takes to be president of these United States if he can't keep his own organization running smooth.

Of citizens and traitors

First off I would like to say that I am not in favor of the US government killing American citizens in foreign countries or at home.but! I am in favor of killing  traitors to our country. The example would be the so-called American Taliban fighter the first thing that should have been done when we found out about this person was that his citizenship should've been stripped and then he should've been put up against the wall and shot. The same thing should've happened to the American who went to Iraq and became a Taliban leader. I think anyone here in the states that goes to a foreign country and tries to take the lives of US military personnel should lose their citizenship and become an open target for military to kill. Now this is not the first time in recent history stuff like this is happened back in the Vietnam War we had the actress Jane Fonda in my opinion committed a treasonous act with the Vietcong, if I had been president during that time Ms. Fonda would've never reentered the United States of America I would've made sure she lost her citizenship in her right to return to this country. To this day I refuse, no matter how  good the movie is to go see it if Ms. Fonda has any part to do with it.

Some of you may agree with me some of you may not but that's the way I feel about things I don't agree with all the wars or conflicts we get into, but I would never turn against my country and home

The Democrats could have ended it today!

The Democrats could have ended it today with a simple vote but once again they chose to keep battling religion and religious rights. What did they do they voted down the Blunt amendment 51 to 48  . The blunt amendment would have let businesses and or religious organizations opt out of parts of Obamacare especially those dealing with birth control. One Republican did vote along side of the Democrats that would be retiring Sen. Olympia Snowe(she was one of the biggest rinos in the Republican Party).

This is just an example of the ongoing fight the Democrats are bringing to religions of all kinds I would like to extend my hand to any and all people of religion to stand with me and my fellow Republicans in fighting for our religious freedom.

Rest in Peace

Rest in Peace Mr Andrew Breitbart. I will pray for you and your family.

Rick the rino

What do these two pictures have in common, the answer being there both rhinos! Rick the rino, what Rick the rino pulled yesterday and is still going on today should let any and all conservative Republicans know his true nature. Making robo calls to unions and Democratic members is a new low in Republican politics. The excuse I'm just trying to pick up Reagan Democrats is pure bull crap. I don't recall once during Reagan's primary that he made Robo calls to any Democrats or unions to help him win the nomination. I think what Rick the rino did is lower than whale crap and we all know where whale crap is it's at the bottom of the sea.

You all know that I'm not a fan of Newt Gingrich he was at the bottom of my list to win the primary but after this crap Rick the rhino has replaced him.

Rick the rino may win Michigan with his pleas to the Democratic Party but! It will be a dirty win and I hope my fellow conservatives will remember this come super Tuesday and put Rick the rino in this place and that's out of this primary run. If I wanted another Obama in office for the next four years I would vote for him, voting for Rick the rino is a vote for the same old politics in Washington we had the last four years.

Is it time for the Christian crusaders return

Is it time for the Christian crusader to return, in the last week or so in Afghanistan people have been protesting and inciting riots and killing people American people over an incident of some soldiers burning copies of the Koran that prisoners had Wrote messages to inside of. This is not the first time radical Muslims have used an excuse like this to cause problems. I personally have nothing against any holy book but can you imagine the outrage the world community would do if a Christian nation did this to Muslims burning the holy Bible, there would be all kinds of protest of how bad Christians were. So I'm asked myself is the time for the Crusaders to come back.

Do we need the Pope and other Christian leaders and non-Christians to come together and once more repeat history and send Crusaders to the Middle East to start a holy war. I believe that's exactly what some leaders in the Muslim world would like to see I truly believe that: the Ayatollah or ayatollahs in Iran and Afghanistan and a few other Middle East countries are pushing for a war of this type. In my own humble opinion I'm not sure that we shouldn't give it to them once and for all and stop bending over and kissing their butts. Would this lead to World War III possibly then again maybe not a lot of people in that area and surrounding areas I think are getting just as tired of Iran and Afghanistan  crap , so  they may not join in to help Iran and Afghanistan and other rogue nations.

I'll really hope we don't have to repeat history in the Middle East, but if we do God have mercy on us all

Food stamps and drug testing

Food stamps and drug testing this is starting to show up in political discussions again, just the other day candidate Mitt Romney said that he was very much for drug testing to be able to qualify for food stamps. I must say I wholeheartedly support this ideal. I believe that there've always been abuses of this program. Don't get me wrong I'm not cold- hearted about people getting food stamps, at one time in my life my family had to apply for them and yes it got us out of a hard spot. But back to the subject I see no problem with asking people to take a drug test when they first sign up for food stamps or social welfare and to have a random test every 3 to 6 months afterwards. I know some of you will disagree with this and say it's invasion of privacy but if you look at it this way people are signing up on welfare and food stamps are spending your and my tax dollars and that is why I believe we have the right to ask them to do a drug test.

Some people are going to say it's a credit card how can they use it to buy drugs. Well the simplest way is this you go to the drug dealer and you ask this I have a food stamps card that's worth let's say 500 bucks what food products do you need that I can get for you with this card in trade for the drugs I want. See my point it is a barter system. So instead of buying food for themselves or their children they are getting their drugs and abusing the system and we the taxpayer. Stuff like this has been going on since the inception of this program going back to my own life when my family was on food stamps for a short time my mother was approached more than once to trade her food stamps for cash.

I also believe that most honest folks who need food stamps for a hard spot in life would not care one way or the other about taking a drug test to get them. Remember originally welfare and food stamps were not meant to be a lifestyle but just something to help people over a rough spot in their lives.

When he's right he's right

First off let me make it perfectly clear I am not a fan of Newt Gingrich's, but I will be more than happy to give him credit where credits due. I totally agree with him on this point the apologies to the Afghan people over the burning of several Koreans has gotten totally out of control, one and I mean one apology should have been enough. But as usual president Obama couldn't kiss the Muslims asses enough over there. In general I don't have a problem with Muslims I worked with one or two in my lifetime  the ones that I've met here in the states seem pretty okay.   Muslims living in the Middle East are different beast altogether most if not all are of the radical type in the Middle East you don't see any of their leaders apologizing for the killing of Christians the destroying of churches or temples or the burning of Bibles so in my opinion and I think most the US in general will agree with me the Middle East can kiss my red white and blue butt before I would give another apology.   I think it's time for us to remind the Middle East in general who the big dog is in the world, the first thing I would do to Afghanistan to start pulling the financial help that we send them, their president would not be such a peacock with empty pockets. I bet that would bring him back in line very quickly. I know I know a lot of you would say well ill just get his money from someone else my response would be go it ! It would save us a lot of money in the long run. On Iran I think we've done more than enough talking with the folks it's time for action and no im not talking about a conventional war with troops on the ground.Politicians keep saying that their nuclear facilities are buried too deep in the mountains for us to to do a successful airstrike. Well with traditional bombs and missiles are correct, but first of all that would be the wrong approach. If the facilities built in a mountain that means there's at most two ways in my idea would be dropped two small tactical nukes in the front door which would make it impossible for them to get in or out of their facility. I can hear you now this would start a world war, well what do you think is going to start if they get nukes and drop one near Israel same thing just different trigger.

In my humble opinion the Muslims of the Middle East are itching for a fight. Right now I think the Middle East sees us as weak and and who could blame them with the apologizing in chief president that we have now.Mark my words war is coming to the Middle East and the rest of the world will be this year or next we'll just have to wait and see.

what happened to the old, Democrats

I am a history and political fanatic that some of you may know. So was doing some research today about politics of course and ran across some stuff I had totally forgot about. Did you know at one time the Democratic Party was much closer to the Republican mindset that it is now.in 1918 the Overman committee was chaired by Democrat Sen.: Overland the committee was looking for pro-German in America.Democrats even held the majority of seats in the committee of un-American activities, they were a big part of the1940s and 50s Hollywood blacklisting of certain actors and writers who were suspected of communist ties.but here's the sad part somewhere in the late 50s and beyond the Democratic Party lost its way. Now this new Democratic Party seems to me to be embracing what it's founders fought for so long socialism and communism maybe in the future we will see the Democratic Party return to its roots one can only hope

Israel and Obama

In the past  weeks if you paid any attention to TV at all and the news broadcast you've noticed a growing divide between the Obama administration and state of Israel. The Obama administration seems to be pushing for Israel to back away from Iran and its nuclear program. Just today Israel has came out and publicly accused the Obama administration of this. I myself think Israel should've done this a lot sooner . Israel and the United States have had a long and good relationship up to this point I don't blame them for being pissed at the Obama administration.

I think we the people of the United States should stand with Israel and remind this administration and future administrations that we do. I myself will be sending e-mails out to my representatives in Washington as well as the state of California and I encourage everyone to do the same.

I'm beginning to think that one of two things about the Obama administration one is that they are so arrogant that they don't think the people of the US are the people of Israel will turn against them. Which if you think about this it's really funny first Obama administration upsets the Catholic vote and a lot of the Christian vote with the birth control issue, now it seems that they are trying to lose the Jewish vote as well.

I honestly believe that this is just me folks my own opinion I truly believe that Obama and his administration knows hes going to lose this coming election and are trying to push us in to World War III I could be wrong and I hope I am

The New Odd Couple

The new odd couple in town, Ron Paul and Mitt Romney no real surprise neither one has been overly aggressive to the other so far in this contest. Both Ron Paul and Mitt Romney seem to be more interested in taking out their competition then hurting each other. Rumor has it that even their wives seemed to be  friends are at least very friendly to each other. What is unusual and kind of caught me off guard was that this weekend on CNN State of the Union Ron Paul admitted that he liked Romney's management style, I think this is the first time I've heard a competitor in the race for the presidency  give another contender a true compliment. Mr. Paul did go on to say though that he thought in general that Mr. Romney was part of the status quo. I may not agree with them on that part but I do appreciate his honesty.   

Happy Presidents Day or maybe not

Well happy Presidents' Day 2000 and then again it may not be that happy when you pull into a gas station to fill up your vehicle. The Associated Press is reporting that gas is at an all-time high for this time of year.the current price for gas in most areas is $3.25 a gallon and increase of $.25 from last year. But if you're living in  California whether you're on the south end or the far north end as I am the average gas price as of right now is hovering around $4.50 a gallon.the reason crude oil is running around $119-$125 a barrel,according to the Oil Price Information Service in most of the country in the month of April gas is going to peak at about $4.25 a gallon which means here California we will be seeing gas prices at about $5.25 a gallon to $5.75 a gallon.

Who should we blame for this Congress, the House , the Senate or the very weak president that we have In office now. I'm going with the weak president who had no leadership experience, no business experience and very little political experience and the biggest reason he's in office his people wanted to make history and let me tell you they have. This is by far the biggest and ugliest mess the good old USA has been in the last time that even came close to this was when we had the peanut farmer Jimmy Carter in office.so Mr. Pres. Obama I would like to wish you and yours a happy presidents day not!
