Governor Doyle Nudges History

By: Terresa Monroe-Hamilton

Today, Governor Doyle of Wisconsin signed a bill into law that forces schools to teach the glories of organized labor and collective bargaining. I’m sure the fact that he has received tremendous financial donations from said unions has absolutely nothing to do with this bill. Right…

Governor Doyle, do you remember the Social Democratic Labour Party? You know, Communism and Marxism? Well, they did exactly what you are doing. They adjusted history and ensured that students were forced into learning about unions and labor. As well as other ‘approved’ doctrine.

I grew up in a union family. The union was good to my father and to us, but we were fully aware there was a very dark side to the unions. Later, our whole family divested themselves of the unions and for the most part, the Democratic Party as well. We could no longer stomach the corruption and violence that surrounded the unions. We used to joke that it would be safer to join the Mafia than a union. Guess we were right…

Witness the beat-downs by SEIU of teaparty attendees. The threats to corporations if they don’t play along with the unions and the government. ACORN and their related tentacles show their true colors constantly by breaking the law and tossing morality out the window. But never fear, our politicians can be bought by anyone with enough money and the unions are buying what they are selling.

Now our children are being forced to learn about organized labor. This is a gross and systemic indoctrination of the worst sort. Doyle should be removed from office immediately for doing this. Frankly, the teachers’ union, which is one of the largest in the nation, has done a supremely crappy job of staffing our schools and educating our children. The only thing they have done right is push their political and social agendas and line their pockets.

Michelle Obama said that they would rewrite our history as a nation. Well, they are certainly trying, just as the teachers’ union tried to rewrite history after 9/11 in our textbooks.

There’s nothing glorious about organized labor. It is a brutal, political machine and Chicago is the ideal breeding ground for these types of groups. As long as the government and unions are allowed to be in bed together, they will continue to force an indoctrinated curriculum on our children that praises organized labor, big government and our leaders while demonizing God, morality and the family unit.

Stand up Wisconsin – Doyle needs to go… Ya know what I mean?

Two Very Different Meetings

Yesterday at 1:30 p.m. two very different meetings occurred.

On the grounds of the United States Capitol, thousands of grassroots activists from across the nation rallied in a park with the media present. Our message to the Senate was simple: “Keep your hands off our health care!” CLICK HERE FOR PICTURES

Meanwhile, at the White House, President Obama, Majority Leader Harry Reid, other liberal Senators and their special interest allies met behind closed doors to cut political deals, twist arms and plot strategy — all to get their health care takeover bill across the finish line and out of the Senate.

At our open air rally, Laura Ingraham, Dr. Tom Coburn, Sen. Jim DeMint, Sen. Richard Burr, Sen. Johnny Isakson, Jim Martin of 60 Plus, and our Tea Party Patriot friends Jenny Beth Martin and Mark Meckler detailed our reasons for opposing this disastrous health care takeover while urging Americans to stay in the fight for our freedoms. Across the nation, thousands more Americans went to the local offices of their U.S. Senators with the same message.

Meanwhile, at the White House, the President and his political friends negotiated in secret. Cut their deals in secret. And tried to buy votes in secret.

The contrast could not be more clear. And, that’s why the American people are with us.

Ever wonder if your grassroots efforts make a difference?

Well, let me give you two numbers: 61 and 44.

CNN — hardly a conservative front group — recently reported that 61% of the American people now OPPOSE the Washington health care “reform” effort. Support for the health care takeover is literally in free fall.

The second number: Gallup Polling Company reports that President Obama’s personal approval rating is down to just 44% — the lowest level in history for a President still in his first year.

President Obama has made this ill-advised health care takeover his top priority, and the American people are telling the President loud and clear to stop now. Sadly, he’s not listening.

I could tell you so many stories from today’s rally at the Capitol. But, I’ll hold at just two.

As the rally ended and the thousands of activists headed for their Senators’ offices to deliver their message one-on-one, a young man in a baseball cap walked up to me and said “I’m from Jersey and I closed up my pizza shop for the day to come down here to send a message. Times may be hard but I can always make up the money later and I don’t want my children to live under government-run health care.” With that, he introduced me to his young son.

Minutes later, a retired gentleman from North Carolina holding an American flag (a big one) came up to me, shook my hand and said, “This is the third time I’ve come to Washington, D.C. this year and I’ll come again if I have to. I fought in Korea for freedom and now I’m fighting for freedom again. I’ve never quit at anything in my life and I’m too old to quit at something now!” He gave me a big bear hug and then marched off for the long ride home.

I walked back to my car with that combat veteran’s words ringing in my ears, “I’ve never quit at anything in my life…”

He’s right. We’re not going to quit.

Harry Reid and President Obama and Speaker Pelosi are trying to sell “inevitability.” The idea that this health care takeover cannot be stopped.

We’ve stopped it since the August recess, through Labor Day, then through October, then to Thanksgiving. Now, we’re just over a week from Christmas.

They can be stopped. And, you and I and folks across America are the ones who are standing in the gap for our freedoms. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Tim Phillips

Chuck Muth’s News & Views – December 15, 2009

Citizen Outreach

THE GREAT AND POWERFUL…ME

“It’s bad enough for America that President Barack Obama is a committed far-left ideologue, but when you couple that with his narcissism, you’ve got a recipe for a major disaster.”

Columnist David Limbaugh

HARD TIMES FOR THE HARD-HATS

“In arguing for his stimulus, Obama promised ‘shovel-ready’ jobs, which gave us the mental image of construction workers in hard hats repairing our highways and bridges. But while four out of five who lost their jobs were men, more than half the jobs created by the stimulus were for women in education or government, where no hard hats are needed.

“Two reasons explain this disconnect. The feminists had a tantrum and demanded stimulus jobs, and Obama wants to make more people dependent on government rather than the private sector (aka, socialism).”

Columnist Phyllis Schlafly

CLUELESS WHEN IT COMES TO REAL JOB CREATION

“The Obama Administration desperately wants a strong economic recovery, or so it says, but does it have any idea how to encourage one? It says it wants job growth, but its policies keep raising the cost of creating new jobs. It says it wants small business to take risks, but it keeps reducing the rewards if those risks succeed. And it says it wants banks to lend more money, even as it keeps threatening to punish bankers if they make too many bad loans or make too much money.”

Review & Outlook, Wall Street Journal, 12/15/09

BYE-BYE PRIVATE INSURANCE

“If Obamacare should pass many millions will lose their healthcare and will be forced into government healthcare. According to the CBO at least 10 million will lose their insurance in short order. The CBO is likely lowballing the number, too.”

Warner Todd Huston, The Union Label Blog, 12/15/09

WHAT’S THE RUSH?

“You might wonder: what’s the rush on health care reform?” asks John Shadegg, Arizona Republican. “With little time to review or debate, and with no hope whatsoever to make any changes to the massive government takeover of health care, Democrats are hoping to cram as much junk into their legislation as possible, as fast as possible.”

They also don’t want you to find out that you’re going to end up paying more for your health care insurance, despite promises by President B.O. to the contrary.

“In speech after speech,” reported the New York Times on July 23, 2008, “Senator Barack Obama has vowed that he will lower the country’s health care costs enough to ‘bring down premiums by $2,500 for the typical family.’”

But as Congressman Shadegg points out, “the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has stated that health care premiums in the individual market will be 10 to 13 percent higher than under current law. That’s an average increase of $300 for an individual policy, and $2,100 for a family policy.”

“Do your friends and neighbors know their premiums will go up, not down?” Shadegg asks. “Do they know that not only will they be forced into a government plan, but they will have to pay more for what they don’t want?”

They won’t. Unless you and I tell them. And FAST!

MUTH’S TRUTHS

Happy Bill of Rights Day from the Libertarian Party!

Tube Tip: Our friend, congressional candidate and great American hero Lt. Col. Allen West (retired) is scheduled to be a guest on the Sean Hannity show tonight on FOX. Even if you don’t care for Hannity, Al will make it worth your while!

Isn’t it interesting that after Congress tried to slap limits on executive pay for bank officials of banks which took taxpayer TARP bailout money, they suddenly found the money to pay off the government? What a coincidence, huh? Kinda makes you wonder if the TARP bailout was ever really needed in the first place despite the Armageddon predictions of the Bush administration a year ago, doesn’t it?

By the way, on my way to chair a vast right-wing conspiracy meeting today, I listened to a radio ad from the southern Nevada health district assuring everybody that the swine flu vaccine was 100 percent safe and everybody ought to get it. A few minutes later the news came on and I learned that the swine flu vaccine was being recalled because apparently it wasn’t strong enough. Don’t you just love government-run and rationed health care?

ADDITIONAL READING

Michele Malkin reports that “a second-grader in Taunton, MA was kicked out of school, suspended, and ordered to undergo a mental evaluation for.…drawing a picture of Jesus Christ on the cross.” School officials reportedly deemed it a “violent drawing.” I kid you not. Read it and weep HERE

Well, the identities and results of that “push poll” against former Arizona Congressman J.D. Hayworth – who is mulling a GOP primary challenge against Sen. John McCain next year – have now been disclosed. However, the operatives behind the “push poll” – which was paid for by an organization set up by a long-time McCain operative – deny that their “push poll” was a “push poll” even though it really was, you know, a “push poll.” The push-pollster claims McCain was beating Hayworth even before they began “pushing” all the negative stuff about J.D., but call me skeptical. The whole poll stinks like yesterday’s diapers. Read all about it HERE

FED-EXCESS

Harry Reid and the U.S. Senate kicked the FAA Reauthorization can down the road yet again on Monday, leading FedEx to issue yet another misleading propaganda news release in their effort to retain a little piece of corporate welfare that preserves a competitive advantage they have over all of their other competitors.
