(err…I meant to say smartest President ever)?
Assault on America – Day 100
What happens when you treat your best friends like crap? Those on the periphery no longer think you are willing to help…so they make decisions based on their own self interest, and not on mutual interest…so here is what the little old lady from Chappaqua said:
The Pakistani government "is basically abdicating to the Taliban and to the extremists," Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton told Congress yesterday in an unusually blunt statement that reflects the unease within the Obama administration about an agreement authorized by President Asif Ali Zardari last week.
What else happens when you allow wannabe world non-actors like hugo and danny dis you in from of the world? Your enemies are emboldened, and do things they wouldn’t normally do when you can kick their butt and tell them you won’t. Guess what…the Taliban (democrat financial supporters of the last election) have taken whole new swaths of the Pakistani countryside that Benazir’s widower didn’t give to them…I recall something about an inch and mile relationship…
When you are only thinking about yourself, and not the country who elected you, anything can happen…and the bad part of anything usually does.
You can almost hear the Kenyan now: “Golly SGT Carter” or maybe it was “Did I do that?”

DC Tea Party
Assault on America - Day 85
A great day in America. Grass roots electorate standing up. Like the old movie "Network," TV personality who said "I am mad an hell and I am not going to take it any more."
It was an extremely wet day in DC for the duration of the event. I showed up and as many people who were leaving were showing up. Most of us stayed. Overall attitude was very positive. People were talking to one another because the speaker system the organizers brought was less than adequate. BUT IT DIDN'T MATTER! Everyone was happy to be there, and the folks I talked to expressed a concern for the direction of the country. The presence of legal immigrants (and naturalized citizens) who saw America as the last best hope for the world was exceptinally uplifitng.
I was very surprised to find in my proximity a Cuban Exile, a elderly German woman who grew up in the Wiemar Republic, and an older woman who grew up in central Europe. Others there, were a former Marine (and family), an ex-Navy guy and myself. WOW, sentiments ranged from we must fix this now (German and Central European) to we have a solid foundation in the Constitution (Cuban and the rest of us). The central European related that something similarly happened in here country, and in the course of 6 months all freedoms were taken away (she sees us on the same path - and to be honest, if the kenyan has his way we would do the same). I remarked in an earlier blog, that we were printing money faster than anyone has seen or imagined before, and later I remembered from my childhood stamp collecting days the stamps that had been marked over (inflated) due the the Germans printing Money. The German woman relayed that she remembers her mother taking a wheel barrel full of money to go grocery shopping for the day.
Whether or not the kenyan gets away with it is up to us...each one of us. we must NOW contact our elected representatives and tell them to 1) commit to the Constitution as our bedrock for the country, 2) denounce the executive, congressional and judiciary extra-constitutional behaviors, 3) stop printing money, and 4) balance the federal budget for 2010 using realistic planning figures (CBO would be acceptable), and 5) cease government intrusion into the private sector.
America is the last best hope for this world...lets work together to restore the "shining city on a hill."

Of Pirates and Pirating
Assault on America – Day 80
Yelling at the idiot box (TV) just isn't helping anymore.
I was screaming at the television during a report by one news channel or another (probably Fox News) over our incompetent response to piracy on the high seas. We are calling them criminals. They have not yet risen to the level of being a criminal. International Law is clear that Piracy (along with slavery) is a crime against humanity, and all ships at sea are obligated to act to correct. So now we have a bunch of pirates in a liferaft with upwards of three navy ships in proximity. I saw a brief by a young captain the other day who had returned from the Horn of Africa, where we (the Navy) were standing off of the coast monitoring their behavior. We knew where they lived, how they got to sea and other pertinent facts that could be translated into ordnance on target, but we chose not to. Last year, the Indian Navy (not exactly a tier 1 naval power) successfully engage some pirates to rescue their interest. With exception, that has been about it for something other than monitoring the pirates. I heard a story from a friend that knew the CO of a Navy destroyer, who observed pirates engaged in pirating and was within range to adversely affect the action, only to be told no by the theater commander. These at sea follies are not solely limited to our current administration, but began under “wimpy George's” son, President #43. Compassionate conservatism at its finest!
During a press conference with some petty potentate from Morocco, HRC has cackled at the pirate situation, citing how successful diplomacy previously resulted in Morocco being one of the first countries to recognize the United States. As long as she still considers attacking the pirates to be diplomacy we can agree. I really doubt it.
Our captain has been taken hostage by pirates. I know a thing or two about captaining...blessed by God and honored by the United States to command two separate ships of the line: USS EXCEL (MSO 439) and USS CALLAGHAN (DDG 994). The captain provides the expectations, guidance and when necessary, discipline to the crew, so that the mission can be performed. The kenyan (a.k.a. Citizen of the World in Chief) said in words given him by TOTUS (Teleprompter Of The United States) to say that we need to change the country (c.f., all stump speeches). This means we will implement social justice and restore equality of outcome (to everyone except the pigs (fascists) and their dog enforcers (media)) so that we can all live happy meaningful lives...IN SLAVERY! Printing money faster than a congressman with an intern (I am fed up with the spending money like a drunken sailor that our congressional enslavers like to use), our country is being driven into debt levels that the world has never seen, heard of or could possibly imagine. All as a means to not “waste a good crisis” and implement fascist policies (all modern liberal policies are fascist) and remake this great country.
So the captain that has been taken hostage, is the Constitution of the United States. No longer do we believe that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life liberty and the pursuit of happiness (yes, I know that is from the Declaration of Independence) the foundation that drives each of us to whatever level of success we desire to achieve. As Mark Levin says in his new book “Liberty and Tyranny”: “...the dignity of the individual that we, as human beings have a right to live, liver freely, and pursue that which motivates us not because man or some government says so, but because these are God-given natural rights.” It is the individual that makes the United States great, not a a race, religion or creed. When we divide ourselves up by those external non-qualities, we begin to enslave ourselves.
The smooth talking kenyan (only when TOTUS is present) seeks to convince us to take the next step and believe in him. Like a good magician, he focuses your attention on one hand while the other performs the sleight of hand...what we are not watching is printing presses working overtime, upheaval (reversal) of direction in the world stage, neutering of the military and military capability necessary to defend our homeland. What we do not see, yet, is action to shut down dissent in the United States. It cannot be far off.
Like his fellow countrymen at sea in a disabled liferaft, the kenyan pirate in chief, and the left is pirating our liberties. They have taken the Constitution hostage, and we are doing nothing about it. The voices of the people can no longer be silent.
