Nobel Peace Prize?

I get up and check the headlines every morning. This morning I about fell out of my chair. Our illustrious, wet-behind-the-ears president was just awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for 2009. "A beaming Obama told reporters in the White House Rose Garden that he wasn't sure he had done enough to earn the award, or deserved to be in the company of the others who had won it before him." (AP, today) Truer words were never spoken, by Obama. Although I do have to disagree about the "company" he's now in. He is perfectly in line with the sham winners that precede him: Yasser Arafat, Al Gore and Jimmy Carter. Arafat--who never did anything but subvert the peace process with Israel and line his pockets with the world's money; Carter--who is arguably the worst president in U.S. history; and Gore--who pounced on the fraudulent global warming movement and is getting rich doing it.

And actually, I guess I disagree with Obama's entire statement (that's odd). He HAS done enough to win the Nobel Peace Prize. He has spent the first few months of his reign giving speeches all over the world apologizing for the horrible, stinking, awful United States of America. He has promised to cripple our economy by bowing to the world-wide green movement and disarm us as quickly as possible. Now I know how to win a Nobel Peace Prize. Obviously the elite intelligentsia in Europe could not wait to crown him--they probably made their decision the night he was elected--and they couldn't be happier to finally see this kind of "leadership" at the helm of the United States. This is not an honor. If it is recognizing Obama for finally meeting the world's standards, then I'm ashamed and embarrassed for our country. We are in deep trouble and there isn't enough Dramamine in the world to keep me from spending the day vomiting.

So What Can We Do?

I have spent a lot of time picking apart the liberal plan for reforming health care in the U.S. I do not have any confidence in a government that cannot run anything cheaply or efficiently. They are the last people I would trust to manage one sixth of our economy--I wouldn't trust them to do my lawn care. So, it's high time to talk about what can and should be done instead. Here are some ideas that would go a long way to lowering the cost of health care for everyone without a government takeover of health care. 1) Individual responsibility: As with anything in life, when we are directly responsible for the outcomes of our decisions, we are better for it, individually and as a society. That responsibility includes being accountable for our life choices, the amount of risks we take and paying our bills. It seems like a no-brainer doesn't it? Unfortunately, we have gotten away from that thinking in reference to our health care. If I choose to have multiple sexual partners, why...

In Defense of the Stay-at-home-Mom

"Democratic pundit Hilary Rosen, a political consultant who advises the Democratic National Committee, said on CNN Wednesday night that Ann Romney 'never worked a day in her life.'" (Washington Post, 4/12/12, Michael Katz) Ann Romney who has raised five boys who are all college graduates, gainfully employed, married fathers, "has never worked a day in her life." Wow, where to begin. Hilary Rosen has visited the White House over 30 times and works for the DNC. She has close ties to the Democratic party but was not speaking for the DNC. To their credit, many Democrats have distanced themselves from her comments. But her attitude towards stay-at-home mothers is indicative of how many liberals view us. It is one more glaring indication of their hypocrisy and general hatred towards the principles of conservatism, especially in the realm of women. Let us remember how Sarah Palin was treated by liberal women for NOT being a stay-at-home mom. Just one small exampl...

The American Death Cult

Cults are known for some typical but disturbing behavior. Most obvious, is the brainwashing of their members. They also specialize in controllling the flow of information; keeping vital facts from followers. They viciously attack anyone who might question their dogma or dare to leave the cult. Thinking or thoughtful discussion with others and the search for unadulterated truth are the things cults fear the most. The extreme left in this country has embraced these tactics and become a cult of death: t heir god is hedonism,  militant feminists the high priestesses, Planned Parenthood the holy temples and killing the unborn their most sacred ritual.  They are adamantly opposed to any kind of open discussion about the pluses, minuses and causes that lead women to feel they must get an abortion. They work hand-in-hand with the mainstream media to spread their orthodoxy while painting anyone who disagrees with them as the women from the Handmaid's Tale. They are currently, illegally...
