Why Newt Gingrich was Right About a Return to the Moon

Fly Me to the Moon; Why Newt Gingrich was Right About a Return to the Moon by Timothy Birdnow over at Canada Free Press

In a recent speech in Florida, Newt Gingrich proposed building a Moon base/colony, and was roundly mocked by critics, most especially by his chief opponent in the GOP Presidential race, Mitt Romney.

Granted, the U.S. debt crisis and the stagnant economy make proposals for any expensive projects difficult, and space exploration yields no up-front returns. But is Newt necessarily wrong to call for a permanent U.S. presence on our nearest planetary neighbor?

The Russians don’t think this is a pie-in-the-sky daydream. Neither do the Chinese.

Why? Helium 3.

The future of nuclear power is believed to lie not with fission of heavy elements but with fusion. A great deal of research has been done, and some breakthroughs made, in fusion research. But this fusion won’t run on regular; it’s going to require a designer blend. Helium 3 is an isotope of helium. Ordinary helium, well, perhaps it’s easier to let this article explain:

Newt Gingrich Has A New Slogan

The slogan is “Annoy a Liberal, Vote Newt!”. It was started by Sarah Palin so pass it on to people who are voting for Newt Gingrich.

The Curious Approach of Newt Gingrich

The Curious Approach of Newt Gingrich by Mark over at Mark America

Few things have been clearer than what this past week has made apparent: The GOP establishment doesn’t want to win an honest fight, and those who comprise it don’t believe we should have any say whatsoever. Whether you’re a staunch conservative, or a Tea Party patriot, there can be no way to miss the point demonstrated by a week-long attack-fest aimed at Newt Gingrich. We’re not part of their party, and they will choose the nominee, and if we don’t like it, we can just shut up and go away. Well, we’re not going away, and we won’t be shut up, and we’re going to call them on their twisted, half-truth ridden distortions in media, and we’re going to turn off their networks, and avoid their favorite in-the-tank websites, and we’re going to forge ahead without them if necessary. The simple truth is that the GOP establishment needs our support much more than we need theirs, and with the direction this is going, I can’t see a single reason to support them or their chosen candidate. Meanwhile, something else is brewing, and I take note, because watching Gingrich speak, I realized there was a change, and it manifested Saturday night.

Barack Obama’s Tax the Rich Lie

Barack Obama’s Tax the Rich Lie by Ulsterman over at The Ulsterman Report

Wanna set the liberal mindset RIGHT? Start with this concise explanation of how Barack Obama’s class warfare tax the rich political posturing is nothing more than an outright lie intended to manipulate the votes of ignorant Americans.

President Barack Obama, who himself has never held a private sector job during his adult life, has repeated over and over again that wealthy Americans need to “pay their fair share”. The method to this government imposed fairness is of course, higher taxes. The classification of wealthy by Mr. Obama, based upon previous targets set by his own administration, are individuals and/or business earning approximately $200,000 per year. It’s these entities, according to the current president, who have not been paying enough to the government.

As the 2012 election cycle is now underway, it is clear it will be this method of dividing America between the so-called haves and the have nots that is to be the foundation of Barack Obama’s hopes for another four years as the Class Warfare President of America. And it is this theme that will be repeated over and over again by his liberal supporters, and, more worrisome, by the many voters who simply don’t pay attention until it is very nearly time to vote. The mainstream media is already attempting to bury the collective subconscious of these millions of voters with the “fair share” message.

Full-of-Pelosi

Full-of-Pelosi by Scott Mayer over at American Thinker

Telling someone that they're 'full-of-baloney' is another way of letting them know that what they are saying is nothing more than nonsense, twaddle, claptrap, drivel or just a flat-out lie. Baloney (AKA bologna) is a low-grade sausage made of finely minced meat parts and cubes of lard.

Nancy Pelosi once again hinted that she has information that would keep Newt Gingrich from becoming President. Newt fired back:

Look, I think if she knows something she ought to say it. If she doesn't know something she ought to quit saying it. But this is baloney. I don't think any Republican is going to be threatened by Nancy Pelosi. Frankly, I'd rather have her threaten me than endorse me. So I feel pretty good about it. If she has something, bring it out.

About Mayor Quan Of Oakland

After reading this post over at the Gateway Pundit (Oakland Mayor Quan Rethinks Support For #Occupiers After They Break into City Hall) I couldn’t help but think how pathetic Mayor Quan was. The fact she let the occupiers go on so long from day one, said where her loyalty was. It was not with the people of Oakland. It was the nostalgia of her youth and other things.

Mayor Quan’s stupidity has come back and bit her in her butt. She is now rethinking her support about Occupy Oakland. Mayor Quan should done something about the Occupiers the first week they roosted in Oakland. I don’t feel a bit of sympathy for her. She is getting back the consequences of the bad decision she made.

Apparatchik Of The Day (1-30-2012)

Someone said we need to call things as it is, which I am going to do.

A couple of days a go I learned a Russian word “apparatchiks”. Basically, it means in simple English “loyal soldiers”. If you want to know further meaning of the word ask a Russian friend or go to Wikipedia for the word “apparatchik”.

This word was use a lot during the Communist Regime in Russia from understanding. It is a word we can use for the Socialist in our government in Washington DC.

One of these apparatchiks today is Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz. In the past few months she hasn’t just shown herself a meathead but a loyal follower of Comrade Obama.

US Spells Us-A Patriotic Song

U.S. Spells ‘Us’ – Patriotic Song and Video

Eric Holder Must Go

Why Eric Holder Must Go by Elise Cooper over at American Thinker

Ever since he was confirmed as attorney general, Eric Holder has had his own agenda, supported by the Obama administration. As chief law enforcement officer, many of his decisions have not been in the best interest of this country.

American Thinker interviewed congressmen who see the fiasco of "Fast and Furious" as the last straw and cite this as the final reason Eric Holder needs to resign. In a 2009 operation ATF requested that gun shop owners sell guns, including AK47s, to straw buyers from the Mexican drug cartels. There were approximately 2,500 weapons involved, and to date, only 600 have been recovered. ATF field agents complained that allowing these guns into the hands of criminals set a bad precedent.

Border Congressmen Brian Bilbray (R-CA), Paul Gosar (R-AZ), and Ted Poe (R-TX) are all in agreement that either Eric Holder is an incompetent attorney general because he did not know what was happening, or he knew and is trying to stonewall Congress and cover up the investigation. It appears that it is the latter, since those in charge of the botched operation have been reassigned or promoted with their pensions intact while the ATF whistle-blowers face isolation, retaliation, and transfer. Bilbray angrily stated, "Retaliation against the whistle-blowers is illegal. This is just another case where Holder believes in employee rights unless it is an employee that is blowing the whistle on something this administration has done. This is suspicious conduct which has the effect of silencing people who give information and promoting those who he knows was involved."

Getting Rid of Rats in Washington!

Getting Rid of Rats in Washington! by Dr. Don Boys over at Canada Free Press

I have long thought that the world is nuts, especially the world of Washington, D.C. Now I am sure. It seems Washington, D.C. has a rat problem. No, not that kind, the four-legged kind. Some of the rats are big as cats, so big that some homeowners are fearful of permitting their cats to confront the rats after dark. Traditionally, rats have always been fearful of cats, but not these super rats!

Rats have infested some half-million-dollar homes and have been seen robbing bird feeders in daylight. Other homeowners have had rats come up in the commode from the sewer system. One family had that experience three times!

Washington’s Wildlife Protection Act of 2010 now requires pest control companies to capture rats “and capture them in families” but no one knows how to identify a “family.” Then the rats have to be relocated. However, the relocation must be humane. Rats must be relocated at least 25 miles away (so that would eliminate moving them to the White House) because they will return unless there is a river between their old home and the new one. Of course there is the Potomac River and that has RATtled Virginia. They see animal control officials dropping off the disease-infested vermin in their state knowing the river will keep them there. Maryland is also up in arms–which they could use against rats although PETA officials might get heartburn thinking of those poor, defenseless rats being shot by heartless citizens.

Oakland Occu-Pests Riot (Again)

Oakland Occu-Pests Riot (Again) by Mark over at Mark America

It’s ridiculous. This is nothing but another sorry attempt to create civil unrest to the degree that the feds will have an excuse to become involved. This is all being directed from the White House or its surrogates anyway, so there shouldn’t be any surprise. Isn’t Oakland the home turf to one Van Jones? Yes, I think so, and I believe he was the one who told us that those at the bottom needed to rise up so that those at the top could clamp down, or something to that effect. In any case, the Occupiers are rioting in Oakland again, and this time there was tear gas and more than three hundred arrests. Apparently, the scum burned a flag they stole from City Hall, so automatically, we can identify them as lefties, because only they and the Jihadists really go in for that sort of thing. If there’s one thing I can’t stand, it’s an occupier.

The Mask is Off

The Mask is Off by Ebben Raves over at American Thinker

Last Thursday will be remembered as the day the Republican establishment unveiled its true face. We know they've just been inside the beltway too long. We expect their informed opinion to tilt in whatever direction keeps them on the cocktail circuit. That's why many of us don't pay a whole lot of attention to them. But to bring out John McCain and Bob Dole to give us advice on picking presidential candidates and have who we thought were "our" pundits treat it as gospel? Next they will tell us ObamaCare is not so bad. Oh wait, they're already priming that pump.

Let's face it, Reagan was an aberration. Before and since, can anyone truthfully say that the party has gone to the mat for conservative, TEA party values? Or has it been just lip service? Why is it always that when we seem to be inside the twenty on an issue that matters, such as cutting the size of government and holding it accountable, we can never score? Newt tried somewhat in the nineties, but was stabbed in the back by his own party. What happened when the Republicans had both houses and the presidency? What happened to the House of Representatives the TEA party put in office in 2010? Excuses. There always has been and there always will be excuses.

Bogus Polling

A Note on Bogus Polling by Mark over at Mark America

I’ve heard from a few people really concerned about the polling in Florida, showing Gingrich down, and Romney up, which seems at least in part to be contradicted by the sense of things on the ground. I am going to show you how a poll can be twisted, and how you can’t trust them, and if you allow them to form your opinion, you can actually be manipulated. Let’s start with a very popular poll, the PPP(Public Policy Polling) outfit that currently shows Romney leading 40% to 32%.

In this poll, when you read to the bottom of the page and examine the data, you discover the following:

“The PPP poll surveyed 387 likely Florida Republican primary voters on January 28th with a margin of error of plus or minus 5 percentage points.”(emphasis mine)

Ladies and gentlemen, when you see ANY poll with such a small sample size, it’s GARBAGE. When you see any poll with a margin of error of more than 3%, it’s likely garbage, particularly if it has a small sample size. For a state as large and diverse as Florida, any poll that doesn’t survey at least 1500 people, with a margin of error well below 4% is a poll intended to generate a headline and drive you.

A Message To Gingrich, Santorum, Paul

Fight like you were in the “Battle Of Bull Run”. Work together to help us to defeat our enemy. Keep Romney from winning.

THE INTEGRATIVE PRINCIPLE

THE INTEGRATIVE PRINCIPLE by G. C. Forsman over at United To Save American

Americans are extremely influenced by a Greek worldview. This worldview compartmentalizes life and partitions our behavior into a variety of categories. In order for us to be ethically correct, we need a fixed set of rules for each compartment that applies to each of our behaviors.

The foundation of Christian ethics is not rules but the changeless character of God. The divine characteristics confronting Christian behavior are holiness, justice, and love.

When questioned by a lawyer regarding the greatest commandment, Jesus said, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” (Matthew 22:37–39, NKJV) With this answer, Jesus clearly establishes love as the integrative principle for our lives.

Team Romney Hack Redistricting Alan West Out Of Congress

Team Romney hack redistricting Alan West out of Congress by Let Freedom Ring Blog

Florida State Rep. and Romney hack Will Weatherford has admitted that he’s helping insure TEA Party favorite Alan West out of Congress:

Over the past several weeks, many Republicans have voiced their disappointment towards the Republican legislature after the release of the preliminary redistricting maps. Much of the ire concerns the proposed boundaries of Congressman Allen West’s 22nd Congressional District that would be redrawn to include far more registered Democrats.

West’s congressional district inexplicably sheds the most out support as compared to all other incumbent Republican and Democrat Congressman. A few weeks back we quoted an unnamed legislator saying that, “Allen West was screwed”, a statement which was originally made about made five months before the purposed maps were made public, leading insiders to believe that the fix was in against Allen West. But in light of Weatherford’s comment, it is increasingly clear that this is a fait accompli.

According to Weatherford, those preliminary maps will not change- at the most, any additional changes would be minimal, and those changes would not make any appreciable difference from the preliminary maps. In addition, Weatherford stated that a deal was struck between him, Senate President Mike Haridopolos, and Senator Don Gaetz to finalize these maps and push them through as soon as possible. Weatherford also said that the proposed maps are in legal compliance with both the Voting Rights Act and Amendment 6.

What Will Our Surrender Mean?

What Will Our Surrender Mean- by Mark over at Mark America

I wonder about some of my fellow conservatives, who at the first sign of trouble, abandon the candidate who they supported only a week ago, particularly since the charges against him were largely out-of-context fabrications drummed up by supporters of the candidate he defeated last Saturday. In abandoning Gingrich so easily, for those who have openly supported him, what does it say about the state of conservatism that when smeared, rather than fighting the smears, we tuck tails and run away? Thankfully, those rare leaders such as Governor Sarah Palin won’t take that approach, and while she and the few others willing to stand against the establishment try to rally conservatives and Tea Party folk to understand the true nature of the assault launched against them, we shouldn’t run away from this fight. We, who say it is our party, and not the party of the establishment, should for once and all times deliver an unrelenting statement of who exactly runs this party.

By heading off for the tall grass in search of a place to hide, since “when elephants fight, only the grass suffers,” we ought for once to realize this is our fight, and this is our time. While Newt was not my first choice, he’s better by far than the apparent leading alternative, and if we don’t rally behind him at this point, that alternative is likely to prevail. We like to point out that the GOP establishment consists of “RINOs,” but my question for you is this: If we bow out of this struggle because it has become a little messy, or because dis-entangling the truth from all the lies is too tedious, are we not in fact surrendering the party to them? Who then are the RINOs?

We conservatives who value our independence of judgment, and our devotion to principle first before party ought not abandon so easily when it becomes clear our conservative candidates are being torpedoed. I hung in there with Cain until the bitter end, not because I was a big Cain proponent(I had my issues with him on several things,) but because I was unwilling to let the obvious take-down win the argument. On substance, by all means, take on Herman Cain, but I’ll be damned if I’m going to let the mudslingers acting on behalf of others carry out such a demonic hit. I’ll not support that, whatever I may think of Cain’s policy ideas.

Obama And His Syndicate

Obama and his Syndicate- Some Good (Obama Eligibility Hearing) and some Chillingly Bad News by Sher Zieve over at Canada Free Press

First the good news. Yesterday—26 January—I watched live feed of an extraordinary event. The setting was a courtroom in Georgia and the presiding jurist was Deputy Chief Judge Michael Malihi. The case centered around and on Barack Hussein Obama’s eligibility to be placed on the Georgia ballot in the upcoming 2012 General Election(s). During the hearing, 3 attorneys—Orly Taitz, Van Irion and J. Mark Hatfield—presented their witnesses and individual ineligibility cases brought against Mr. Obama.

Neither Obama nor his attorney Michael Jablonski were in attendance—both having opted to avoid and skip the proceedings altogether—and none of the court’s required production of Obama’s eligibility was provided.

Note: Jablonski seems to be perpetuating the long-standing myth that his client is above the law and now—by association—he appears to be operating under the delusion that he is, also. This brings up the interesting possibility of Atty. Jablonski—having provided no apparent legal reason for his non-attendance—being subject to revocation of his license to practice law in the State of Georgia. But, that’s a discussion for another time.

The evidence presented was strong and there appears to be, at least, a 50-50 chance of Judge Malihi and the State of Georgia ruling in plaintiffs’ favor. Judge Malihi will file a report, including his recommendations, with the Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp. When a decision is given by Judge Malihi, this will be the first time that any ruling on the merits of Obama’s eligibility will have been rendered. Note: After yesterday’s hearing there was some indication that Judge Malihi was planning to rule for the plaintiffs. But, I have been unable to confirm the report.

John F. McManus On The Real Gingrich

John F. McManus on the Real Gingrich by Bojidar Marinov over at Godfather Politics

The strategy of most politicians for election or re-election is based on the short memory span of their voters. Or the ignorance of the voters concerning the real record and the real ideology of a politician. That’s why a political system needs those that will sound the alarm when a politician deliberately misleads the voters about his true political views or record.

Watch the video in the link below. Back in the 1990s, John F. McManus, the President of the John Birch Society, delivered a lecture on the real Newt Gingrich – his real record, his real loyalty, and his real political ideology. Mr. McManus revisits his video and shows how Gingrich hasn’t changed his views nor his commitments. An important video to make voters able to make an informed choice when they vote in these primaries:

The Jungle

The Jungle by Nebrasksenergyobserver over at Nebrasksenergyobserver

The Jungle; it was an expose of the meatpacking industry circa 1905. Sinclair stated that he wrote it to stimulate sympathy for immigrants, instead it started the demand for food safety that lead to the Pure Food and Drug Act. There should be better way to obtain this result but, we haven’t found it, instead we’ve trusted our government with poor results. Has anything changed? Yes, food is at least somewhat safer now. Interestingly, one of the drivers in the packing industry for better quality control has been, wait for it: McDonald’s and Wendy’s, they won’t accept mediocre quality or contaminated hamburger.

This afternoon I came across a report from Human Rights Watch entitled Blood, Sweat, and Fear. And yes I know, most of us consider Human Rights Watch a leftist organization, which it is. But when you are right, you’re right. In this case they’re right.

If you haven’t noticed I live in a town that is dominated by a Tyson Meat plant and I have many friends and neighbors that work or have worked there. That includes me, by the way. This town is also a Hispanic majority town, with Thais, and Somalians represented. I’ll tell you why as we go along. Incidentally, these studies are not new, I just happened to run across them. In my opinion, things have gotten worse.
