It's America Needs a Few Good Wing-men Thing

Dear America,

When in Hell, 

Keep Going.

Winston Churchill

sure, this was from a bit ago -- and considering how quickly things, faces, and times change these days, it's probably plum close to irrelevant by now... but no bother, no matter...

Fire one:

"I’m still enjoying what I’m doing, there’s still work to be done.  I’m still the President’s wing-man, so I’m there with my boy.  So we’ll see," Holder said in an interview on the Tom Joyner radio show. [circa 2013, plucked from Politico]

It's incredible the level of corruption; for it's the Department of Justice, not to mention what's going on in another entire branch of government in the Supreme Court, that should be -- of all places, and in all circumstances -- clinging to the virtues and duty of the Rule of Law, not to every whim and fancy and ideology according to the rule of man, even if appointed by several, even if that often looks like an entire body of congress.  

Just where is America's WING-MAN right now?

Here's a serious rebuttal to Holder's wing-man philosophy of justice well served, and it comes from another former U.S. Attorney General -- Michael B. Mukasey:   Justice and the Obama Justice Department, as adapted from a speech in the September edition of Imprimis, a publication of Hillsdale College.

Mukasey sums it up for us like so -- "our country has grown less honest, less fair, and less safe than it ought to be" largely because of the [Justice] department's work.  And then begins, in torpedo fashion, rattling off examples behind enemy lines like a prosecutor who not only knows the law, but respects it above all else.

In the end, Mukasey gives us a warning:

The problems in the DOJ won’t be solved simply by electing a less ideological president in 2016. Many of the political appointees of the past seven years will resign and take up career positions within the department, and once such people receive civil service status, it is virtually impossible to fire them. In other words, the next attorney general will be confronted with a department that’s prepared to resist policy changes. This will require great patience and dedication by the new political appointees in their efforts to return the department to its true mandate—not doing justice according to your own lights, or even according to the lights of the president who appoints you, but defending law and having enough faith in law to believe that the result, more often than not, will be justice.

The thing is, all of this talk about justice isn't really where this American girl wants to hunker down in a bunker on the day.

It's really more about the overall climate we are in -- as a nation.

For we are becoming a nation quite amenable, newly accustomed really,  to the rule of law being changed on the fly.  

And for that reason alone we should stop --  dead in our tracks --  and check the compass.

Fire Two:

To the issue of Paul Ryan becoming Speaker.  Let's regroup and look at the actual navigational charts available, and review where Ryan has been and where Ryan wants to go, shall we [or do we not have your permission to ask such a thing, Mr. Full Consensus Only or Nothing?]

Sounding less like a condition and more like a threat, what would a Ryan speaker-ship do to America?

Can you say OPEN BORDER.   

Talk about a section of the rule of law a Speaker Ryan would aim to have his power change....

For a full, exclusive, report go to BREITBART, rest his soul.

“There’s nobody in the Republican Party who could be worse than Paul Ryan,” Beck implored. “He has spent his entire adulthood ideologically connected to the open borders crowd. Open Borders is in his ideological DNA. That’s the terrifying thing. He’s an ideologue and his spent his whole life working for ideologues. Open borders seeps out of every pore of his being. This isn’t personal, it’s just who he is.”

This scathing report, lines up all the dots over twenty years, and blows Ryan's all-American boyhood, natural, darned right devilish good charm right out of the water.

The flow of illegal immigration is pure lawlessness, at a real cost of trillions of dollars to our economy, not to mention adding to the multi-cultural weakening of a nation dependent upon a common allegiance to the whole and it's well being, while individually carrying our own packs filled with the fundamentals of self-reliance and rugged independence and courage, alongside the Rule of Law as the real, bona fide, commander in chief (kinda like how a nation of 300 million wing-men and women might look).  

All the while, a possible Speaker Ryan has made his demands clear and his intentions known and will continue to align himself against the sovereign border every time.  

......And just as America elected a President Obama under the guise of hope and change --  America denied looking at the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help me God.  

......And IF we are not careful -- we will do the same IF this House of Representatives appoints Paul Ryan as speaker.  Boom!

"Socialism 

is a philosophy of failure 

with the creed of ignorance, 

and the gospel of envy.  

It's inherent virtue 

is the equal sharing 

of misery." 

Winston Churchill

Conservatives need to band together and fight like hell.

We may have won the battle in getting John Boehner to step aside -- but let's not lose the war in letting the position go to Paul Ryan.  It's a position that puts America at risk, for the threat is real; if we fall back asleep, the enemy might not even need to use a gun, but just walk right on in, in the cover of darkness, and have us surrounded before we know any better.  We have struggled to get this far...we must keep going.   Everybody take a wing.

Make it a Good Day, G

It's the Re-Establishment of a Traitor-In-Chief Thing

Dear America,

here's a definition for you this morning:
 

"A person who betrays his country, 

a cause, or a trust; 

especially, one who has committed treason."

Traitor.

But since you brought it up, let's go to Treason...

"Violation of allegiance 

toward one's sovereign or country; 

especially, the betrayal 

of one's own country 

by waging war against it 

or by consciously 

and purposely 

acting to aid its enemies."

oh my.

In this day of the life -- in a week focused madly, deeply, on the re-establishment everyday life -- we come to a screeching about face; no more missy nice girl; no more wishing for world peace or flippantly calling for the moving of the fiscal cliff, all in good fun.  Nope.  All that comes to an end.

Old G thing doesn't have much time today; and come to think of it, neither does the US of A.

So upon this happy hump day, we take a look at the Re-Establishment of the Traitor-In-Chief.

Too strong, I hear you say?

I beg to differ; besides, it couldn't be any worse than being directly associated with the party who wants to "put y'all back in chains,"  could it Joe Biden?   Because surely, this kind of rhetoric is simply inflammatory in every way.  The actions of a presidency over the last four years is subject to opinion, of course; and in my humble experience, watching this administration's every move (the moves seen and unseen), his actions call into question his allegiance to country, cause, and the people's trust time and time again. 

We could first look at this by going broad -- as in the decision simply not to defend DOMA.  It is a law, by the way.  And yet, this president just decides for himself, nope, we're not gonna do that.  After making it quite clear while campaigning in 2008 he was a man and candidate who believed we define marriage as between one man and one woman (for political expediency), he changed his mind (again, for political expediency) and playing the American people like a fiddle.  [oooh,  make that a sax -- sure don't want you to rush to judgment, thinking it's delivering some kind of racial bias or "code"].   traitor.

Widening the scope,  we could go to his "all of the above" energy policy -- and realize he's working us there, too.  Energy independence?  How on earth can we do that when he refuses to let the black gold flow -- moratoriums,  kills drills in the East or West,  with Keystone, still undecided.
And then there is coal.    traitor.

We expect the president to, at the very least, say what he means and mean what he says.  
How hard is that?
To be a man of your word, is all we ask, Mr. President.  Tell us the truth; tell us what YOU will do, not what sounds good with no intention of going there whatsoever..


Here's another one, going bigger and broader:  Obamacare.

It's a tax to all Americans, Mr. President.  What happened to the "no new taxes for the middle class" aka those who you adore so very much?    traitor.

Let's go more fine tuned and look at the policy of "no man left behind."  
The Benghazi breakdown of that policy began with telling the American people a flat out lie; promoted aggressively five days later on Sunday morning news shows up and down the dial through the administration's mouthpiece, UN Ambassador Susan Rice.    You knew, she knew, Intel knew -- everything Ms. Rice noted "as fact" was not "fact."  What cause, who's trust, which country.... are you protecting with these actions, Mr. President?       traitor.

How can we trust any of you within this administration ever again?

How about this guy for president next time around -- surely we could figure out a way to doctor a birth certificate by then...
What... too extreme? 
Too much birther-baiting for one blog? 
Perhaps.  I'll take it back.  But really now --understand the contrasts between a HARPER and OBAMA by reading GELLER, here.

Traitors, dictators and dogs.  oh my.

And since we've been talking about falling off the man-made fiscal cliff [just what happens when global warming and global cooling meets in the abyss made in the middle] -- how about the candidate who claimed he would go "line by line" and clean up the fraud, waste, overspending, duplicate departments, and simply get rid of it from day one.  Yeah, that would be an Obamanism, too.

Instead, he has grown the yearly deficit to 1.3 trillion dollars -- added six trillion to our national debt -- and hasn't come close to taking the line by line agenda to task.  liar liar pants on fire.     traitor.

Let's go back four years to his speech in Egypt , June 4, 2009:

"As the Holy Koran tells us, "Be conscious of God and speak always the truth."  (Applause.)  That is what I will try to do today -- to speak the truth as best I can, humbled by the task before us, and firm in my belief that the interests we share as human beings are far more powerful than the forces that drive us apart.

...And since our founding, American Muslims have enriched the United States.  They have fought in our wars, they have served in our government, they have stood for civil rights, they have started businesses, they have taught at our universities, they've excelled in our sports arenas, they've won Nobel Prizes, built our tallest building, and lit the Olympic Torch.  And when the first Muslim American was recently elected to Congress, he took the oath to defend our Constitution using the same Holy Koran that one of our Founding Fathers -- Thomas Jefferson -- kept in his personal library.  (Applause.)

[getting personal]  So I have known Islam on three continents before coming to the region where it was first revealed.  That experience guides my conviction that partnership between America and Islam must be based on what Islam is, not what it isn't.  And I consider it part of my responsibility as President of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear. (Applause.)

...The dream of opportunity for all people has not come true for everyone in America, but its promise exists for all who come to our shores -- and that includes nearly 7 million American Muslims in our country today who, by the way, enjoy incomes and educational levels that are higher than the American average.  (Applause.)   [What a strange thing to say...or is it just me?]

continue reading what G is skipping, here.    But here's more:

"...That does not lessen my commitment, however, to governments that reflect the will of the people.  Each nation gives life to this principle in its own way, grounded in the traditions of its own people.  America does not presume to know what is best for everyone, just as we would not presume to pick the outcome of a peaceful election.  But I do have an unyielding belief that all people yearn for certain things:  the ability to speak your mind and have a say in how you are governed; confidence in the rule of law and the equal administration of justice; government that is transparent and doesn't steal from the people; the freedom to live as you choose.  These are not just American ideas; they are human rights.  And that is why we will support them everywhere.  (Applause.)

This last point is important because there are some who advocate for democracy only when they're out of power; once in power, they are ruthless in suppressing the rights of others.  (Applause.)  [Really now...where oh where has a thing like that ever happened?]   So no matter where it takes hold, government of the people and by the people sets a single standard for all who would hold power:  You must maintain your power through consent, not coercion; you must respect the rights of minorities, and participate with a spirit of tolerance and compromise; you must place the interests of your people and the legitimate workings of the political process above your party.  Without these ingredients, elections alone do not make true democracy."

nice touch there at the end, no?

Now, think of Egypt today.  Think of Israel and Palestine, today.   Think of Libya, today.  Think of how America interfered in the democratic process in Egypt, in Libya, but more important, when we stopped (interfering).  And worse, put the last four years all together, and think of what he said in Cairo and what he's done in America.  

Rule of Law, Mr. President?  what about this.....Oh let me just grant sweeping amnesty to the children of illegal immigrants, that's a good start.  I can do that without congress.    traitor.

And sure, I am bouncing all over the place -- but I can do that in a free country, at least until the end of the day....


In Cairo, circa 2009, the president goes on to say, "Islam has a proud tradition of tolerance."

Is that what we are watching today, tolerance?

Why isn't this administration standing up to the new dictator in Egypt, Morsi, and pounding the democratic gavel pleading for him to listen to the will of his own people?   Is this what democracy looks like?  America allowed the Muslim Brotherhood to take over the control of Egypt --  move over Mubarek, make room for Morsi.   Was this action aiding an enemy, as follow through for promises made to the people of Egypt, the community of Islam, dating all the way back to June 2009? 

with a motto like this:

"Allah is our objective; 

the Quran is our law, 

the Prophet is our leader; 

Jihad is our way; 

and death for the sake of Allah 

is the highest of our aspirations"

Are we aiding and abetting Israel's enemy?  Are we aiding and abetting Hamas, in Palestine?   Like the enemy of my friend is my friend...that's so twisted.  In light of who's in charge (as dictator-in-chief),  isn't it treasonous to send 1.5 billion dollars to Egypt every year?  traitor.

Oh and speaking of treasonous -- what about sharing our sovereignty like sharing our spit with the United Nations, now set to call the shots on our right to bear arms?  Update here.     traitor.

So with the re-election of President Obama we come to a stunning conclusion:  we realize we have re-established a traitor-in-chief.  Duly noting, the purely subjective prerogative that it is.

Make it a Good Day, G
