The United Nations was created as a means to promote world peace and provide humanitarian aid and financial assistance to countries in need.
Over the decades of its existence, during which it siphoned huge sums of money from the United States, the United Nations has evolved into an anti-American league of nations that holds their hands out to America for money while condeming America and other democratic nations of the world. The latest example is the United Nations condemnation of Israel for preventing a small flotilla of ships from reaching Gaza. The Islamics that dispatched the flotilla were fully aware that they were challenging Israel and fully intended to create an incident that would gain sympathy from fellow Islamics and condemnation of Israel by Islamic led nations and the United Nations.
It is perverse and diabolical that the United Nations condems Israel for their raid on the flotilla of ships in defense of their country and out of the need to continue their survival as a country.
Reasonably intelligent people in the world know that Palestinians and the Islamics residing in the Gaza strip are not just anti-Semitic, they hate America as well. Reasonably intelligent people in the world recognize that Islamic jihadists are engaged in a crusade to destroy Christianity and Judaism. Islamic terrorists have been carrying out death and destruction in numerous countries of the world for at least three decades and yet rarely does the United Nations express outrage and condemnation for the terrorist acts.
As an American citizen who was around when the United Nations was created, I watch in disgust and dismay as the organization created to broker peace in the world is hijacked by Islamic terrorists who are engaged in committing acts of death, destruction and warfare throughout the world.
Our government needs to take a firm stance and inform the United Nations to shape up or ship out! Of course with the crud presently running our government, that is not going to happen. We can only hope that Islamic countries will eventually push Israel to the brink. Israel kicked their asses once and I can imagine they are able to do it again. We have to ask ourselves what America will do when Iran, or some other Islamic country, goes to war with Israel. I use the word when, rather than if, because it is a certainty that this war is going to happen. America's response may reveal President B.O.'s true religion and loyalty.

Obama Just Keep Digging America's Hole Deeper
It is becoming increasingly difficult to speak with any measure of respect toward the man elected to the Presidency by people mesmerized into moronity. Obama has revealed himself as a liar, and a scumbag.
He fails to come out in support of Israel, who took appropriate action when a terrorist flotilla intentionally created an incident that would gain sympathy from world Muslims. Why is it so difficult for this administration to come to the realization that Palestine is not a peace loving, America embracing country. The majority of Palestinians are terrorists and they hate America. Palestinian terrorists are launching rockets into Israel on a daily basis. What would Obama do if a neighboring country of the United States started launching rockets at us?
At the same time B.O. - oops I forgot the H - tells the nation he is going to conduct a criminal investigation into the oil platform disaster and punish oil companies by increasing their taxes. The morons with half a brain will cheer him on, because they view oil companies as evil, greedy corporations. They don't realize that any costs the government passes on to the oil companies are going to be passed on to us at the gas pump. I personally do not look forward to paying $4-5 a gallon for my gasoline. Oh yes, B.O. is also going to push energy efficient alternatives to oil. Whether we like it or not, our nation - indeed the world - depends on oil for energy. Alternative energies are going to cost great sums of money and take years to develop.
Scumbag, incompetent Attorney General Eric Holder, has launched a criminal investigation at the behest of his organized crime boss B.O., but doesn't feel an need for an investigation concerning bribery by the B.O. administration. But of course that is understandable because the bribery is an impeachable offense and he has to protect the Godfather.
Our nations debt is nearing $14 trillion dollars and numerous experts in finance are warning that the debt is unsustainable and will bankrupt the country. Yet the cement heads in government, led by the Messiah, Godfather B.O. just keep spending money stupidly.
Every day B.O.and the crud in government do something more to damage our country.
He must be stopped! This Bribery thing is an impeachable offense and would be cause to get rid of him. We must push for a special prosecutor, who will dig the dirt and get rid of B.O. and his organized crime thugs.

Memorial Day Remembrances
Monday is Memorial Day, and like most folks today I plan to enjoy fun-filled activity, but also encourage everyone to remember the purpose of "Decoration Day," which somehow evolved into Memorial Day.
I would encourage everyone to take some time to say a prayer and give thanks to those who have passed on and are near and dear in our hearts and minds.
Let us give special thanks to those who paid the ultimate sacrifice in defending our freedom and willingly did so for love of country.
I would like to share with you my earliest remembrance of Decoration Day - as it was referred to so many years ago. My parents were very hard working people and did not have a lot of money; however, every year they faithfully purchased - or perhaps gathered - oodles of flowers, placed them in small pots and we travelled to numerous cemeteries where various friends and family were buried. My earliest recollection would be about 65-67 years ago and I accompanied my parents on the annual cemetery visitations until I left home at age 14. I am certain that my parents continued their annual visitation to pay respects to the deceased as long as they were physically able.
Pots of flowers were placed, or planted near the headstones that identified the deceased and while this was being done, I listened in awe to my parents converse about aspects of the dearly departed's life. Although Christian and believing in God, my parents were not religious people and we never kneeled at the graves to pray, nor do I ever recall any prayer being said. Yet, their placing of the flowers and positive reflection on the individual - most of whom I never knew in life - was meant as tribute to that individual and therefore a demonstration of prayerful respect.
My mother always packed a picnic basket filled with goodies and at mid-day, in whatever cemetery we were at, we spread a blanket under the spreading limb of a large tree and ate lunch. During that picnic lunch, I listened in rapt fascination to my parents reflections on aspects of the friends and relatives lives who had passed on. Some of those reflections dealt with some heroic aspect of the individual's life.
The graves of those who had served in the military and lost their lives in defense of this country, were usually adorned with flags and sometimes a placard paying tribute to their valor. It made me shiver to see how young some of them were when they were killed, and I wondered if one day I would be called upon to sacrifice my life in similar manner. In later year's I visited the Arlington National Cemetery and thought this beautiful cemetery was where I wanted to be laid to rest. The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and the silent, immaculately uniformed sentries watching over it caused me to shiver, much as I had as a small child while wondering at the significance and finality of death.
I am ashamed to say that in my adult life, I have not continued the family tradition of visiting cemeteries and paying respect to deceased family and friends on Memorial Day. However, I do hold dear memories of life shared with those who have preceded me in death, and I do pray that their souls are enjoying eternal life in Heaven.
Our son Patrick, on his own initiative, without any encouragement from me, travels to various cemeteries where members of our family are laid to rest. He places flowers and prays for their soul. I am pleased and proud that Patrick does this.
I would hope that no matter how everyone plans to spend Memorial Day, that they take some time to think about the sacrifices made by so many that they might continue to enjoy liberty, freedom and prosperity. Those who live owe a great debt to those who gave them life and who nurtured them in life.

Government Organized Crime
It has been revealed that "a high ranking official" in the Obama administration offered Joe Sestak, the Senate candidate who beat Arlen Specter in Pennsylvania, "a high-level federal job if he would drop out of the race against Specter." This bribe offer is a crime and should be investigated and prosecuted! It appears the Justice Department, led by Obama's organized crime Lieutenant Eric Holder, has no intention of investigating this matter, which is indicative that the bribe idea came from The Exalted Don himself, Barack H. Obama. An investigation revealing that Obama offered the bribe would be an impeachable offense and as the Chicago organized faction is in charge of the Justice Department, they will protect the Don at all cost.
Holder is also weak on enforcement of illegal immigration and has attacked the State of Arizona, for trying to protect LEGITIMATE AMERICAN CITIZENS from the crimes being committed by illegal aliens. Holder is also weak on prosecuting terrorism and it is absolutely assinine to prosecute terrorists in the same manner a burglar is prosecuted. Obama and Holder are eagerly awaiting some angry member of a tea party group to flare up and commit some act of violence. It is a certainty that Obama and Holder will vigorously investigate and prosecute any such incident.
The Los Angeles Times recently reported that "40% of all workers in L.A. County are working for cash and not paying taxes. 95% of warrants for murder in Los Angeles are for illegal aliens. 75% of the people on the most wanted list in Los Angeles, are illegal aliens. Over 2/3 of all births in Los Angeles County are to illegal alien Mexicans on Medi-Cal and those births are paid for by taxpayers. Nearly 35% of all inmates in California detention centers are Mexican nationals, here illegally. Over 300,000 illegal aliens in Los Angeles County are living in garages. The FBI reports that half of all gang members in Los Angeles are most likely illegal aliens from south of the border. Nearly 60% of all occupants of HUD properties are illegal. 21 radio stations in Lost Angeles (sic) are Spanish speaking. In L.A. County 5.1 million people speak English, 3.9 million speak Spanish. (There are 10.2 million people in L.A. County)"
Other media resources report that less than 2% of illegal aliens are picking our crops, but 29% are on welfare. Over 70%of the U.S. population growth and over 90% in California, Florida and New York results from immigration. 29% of inmates in federal prisons are illegal aliens.
All of these statistics are frightening proof that Mexico is presently winning a stealth war focused on the take-over of the United States. Disgustingly, our President and Congress do not care that this stealth war is destroying our nation's economy and putting America on the fast track to bankruptcy. They only care about political power and holding onto power and when it is determined that amnesty will keep them in power, they will pass the legislation against the will of the people; just like they did healthcare and bailouts.
Sadly, our federal government is out of control. The only fix lies in the hands of the voters who pay taxes and our numbers are starting to be overwhelmed by the voters who do not pay taxes.
The bribe offer to Sestak, could be the means to force Obama's removal from office via impeachment, but the numbers in Congress who insist on investigation, are in the minority and impotent to force the Department of Justice hand.
Holder is also weak on enforcement of illegal immigration and has attacked the State of Arizona, for trying to protect LEGITIMATE AMERICAN CITIZENS from the crimes being committed by illegal aliens.

Obama's Continued Incompetence As A Leader
Rambling article in today's MDJ, attempts to favorably outline President Obama's "new method of combating terrorism." What I deciphered from all the gobble-de-gook is that Obama's method of dealing with terrorism is reactive, rather than proactive. The article states that he intends to "rely on other nations" to aid in combatting terrorism and as history as proven, this is a real loser of a strategy.
Now Islamics are trying to gain approval to build a Mosque on the site of the former World Trade Center, and incredibly, the majority of New York City's council and Mayor Bloomberg, want to let them claiming the mosque is intended to unify rather than divide people and cultures. Bullshit! Call me prejudice if you want, but Islamics are hell-bent on conquest of the United States and have come to realize that by continually making inroads in America and increasing their numbers, in 40 or so years, they can accomplish this dream. The Islamic religion is not a religion of peace! I have read segments of the Koran and biographies dealing with Mohammed and the sacred book of Islam, calls for the destruction of infidels (non-believers) Mohammed started out life as a reasonable and religious man, but evolved into a monster. He abused women and ordered the beheading of people as easily as we would swat a mosquito.
America was founded on Judaeo-Christian principals and religious philosophy and became a great nation because of it. The Islamic religion would take America back into the dark ages. All of the rights and freedoms that women have gained would become null and void under that strict and repressive belief.
There is a move on Facebook to petition against the building of a Mosque on the site where 3000 innocent people were murdered by Islamic crazies. I hope and pray that the imbeciles responsible for allowing or preventing the mosque get the message and tell Islam NO!
Also, the government has put on display several of our nations police chiefs, who oppose Arizona's new immigration law. Could not help but notice that some of these police chiefs have hispanic surnames. Hmm. It is also clear that the huge influx of illegals into the cities they police has overwhelmed the system and hispanics are beginning to control local governments and even police departments.
This show by the police chiefs - who in my opinion are not qualified to command a police department - adds credence to my previous claim that Mexicans do not want to become American citizens. They want to change the United States of America into a northern Mexican province.

The Scum Continues To Get Scummier!
It seems that every day, the Obama Administration gets scarier and scarier and scumier and scumier! Now, Obama's Director of ICE, the guy who apparently thinks he is saltier than salt, John Morton, made the outrageous statement that his agency will not cooperate with Arizona's new immigration law. Of course the salt guy is simply carrying out Obama, Holder and Napolitano's program of pretending to enforce federal immigration laws, while not enforcing them at all. Morton needs to have his ass spanked and sent packing! The majority of the LEGAL - I repeat for the imbeciles who still support the Obama nonsense - LEGAL citizens of the United States have made it loud and clear that they support Arizona's legislation and want the federal government to stop pretending they are enforcing and start enforcing immigration laws.
I listened with disgust to Calderon and Obama's bullshit about Arizona's new law and wonder just how much more of Obama's nonsense America will tolerate.
Did the greatly outnumbered American heros who sacrificed their lives at the Alamo, make this ultimate sacrifice in vain? Has America forgotten that Sam Houston led his troops to victory over Mexicans in their attempted conquest of Texas?
How ironic indeed, that Mexico is now accomplishing their conquest of the United States, without using their impotent Army, but by flooding the country with illegals. There are millions of illegal Mexicans presently devouring America's resources and bankrupting our infrastructure. Every facet of our society presently provides service in Spanish, and I am sick and tired of having to "press 1 to continue in English." Hey imbeciles running our government, the official language of the United States of America is English! I have no desire to learn Spanish and if people from south of our border really want to assimilate into the U.S. and become citizens, they would learn to speak English! The truth is, they want to convert America into a northern Mexico!
Started to send an email to the White House yesterday to complain about Morton, but after viewing the White House site and finding that it provides email service in Spanish as well as English, I gave up in disgust.
I will give sociopath Obama credit for having no fear of infuriating the majority of American citizens by rapidly pushing forth a socialist agenda that has this nation on the fast track toward self destruction. It mattered not to Obama that the majority of Americans opposed health legislation. It mattered not to Obama that the majority of Americans opposed bailing out banks and auto companys. It matters not to Obama that the majority of Americans want to put an end to illegal immigration and strict enforcement of immigration laws. His latest move, (this morning's paper) is to force "vehicle efficiency standards - with emphasis on the trucking industry." The price of fuel is outrageous as it is, and by forcing "standards" (which has such an innocent well intended sound)on the trucking industry and automobile owners, the price of diesel and gasoline will cripple drivers. And, the fall out to such legislation will cause a dynamic increase in the cost of goods and services; which will be required if the trucking companies are to continue in business.
It seems the dream I had about Obama being driven to drive a wedge in society and so infuriate citizens that they begin open rebellion against government is coming true. My dream messenger told me Obama sees revolution as the means of achieving lasting power. You see, if the people revolt, as President and Commander-in-Chief of the military, he can enforce martial law and assume the power of Dictator. If the majority of Americans accept becoming wards of the state(federal government), and that is why Obama wants to give amnesty to illegals, taxpaying citizens will not have the elective power to stop him and he will achieve the same goal without the death and destruction associated with revolution. Examine the path we are on and it appears we are well down the road toward Obama achieving his goal.
I know it sounds harsh, but Barack Obama, is not only the worst President in the hisotry of this nation, he is dangerous and in his quest for power he is in fact an enemy of America!

Reply to Obama
In today's MDJ, Associated Press (Obama News Agency) ran article purporting to show how intelligent Obama was by challenging Republicans & Conservatives, to recognize what disastrous results would have occurred if he hadn't taken over the failing auto industry, bailed out banks, passed healthcare, etc. Obama challenged his opponents to offer their solution to the problems he was confronted with, and of course the AP claims there was no response.
Well I am able to respond to President Obama, and my solutions for handling the challenges would act to the betterment of the United States of America.
As for the failing banks - who were losing money because they were directed by members of Congress to provide mortgages to people who were not qualified - I would have removed Congressional influence from the industry and let the banks foreclose. Throughout history, ambitious and industrious - and those are key words - citizens have dug their way out of failure and climbed ladders toward success. The entrepreneurial spirit and drive of these motivated citizens are what made America strong. When government starts bailing individuals and businesses out of debt, individuals lose the spirit and drive to succeed and look to government to make life easy for them. Of course, what they fail to realize is that in order to give money and aid to one segment of society, government has to take the money from another segment of society that is working hard and achieving success through their industry. In doing so, the self-achievers start saying, what in hell am I busting my ass for. I might just as well slow down and let government take care of me too. Eventually, that segment of society paying the taxes to keep government operating, is no longer able to provide the huge sum of money needed to keep the socialist system operating. The socialist government is then forced to increase the tax load on those still paying taxes, and so it goes, until the socialist system can no longer sustain itself and goes bankrupt. All one has to do to see proof of this, is track the history of Greece and examine how the socialist government systems presently operating in Europe are failing.
As for mortgages: minus credit and income, people are not entitled to own a home! Millions of people have rented apartments and lived modestly (including yours truly) until they were financially able to obtain a mortgage. It is not my responsibility, nor any other taxpayer's responsibility to pay the mortgage payments of another citizen. Government should NEVER have gotten involved in assisting with mortgage payments and requiring banks to re-work and reduce mortgage payments. Re-working a mortgage payment should be strictly between the bank and the person responsible for paying the mortgage. Government needs to keep its nose out of private industry!
As for helping the poor, President LBJ created the "War on Poverty" back in the 60's and it was hailed as the war that would end poverty in America" The war proved to be unwinnable and now some fifty years later, TEN TRILLION $$ HAVE BEEN SPENT ON THE WAR TO ELIMINATE POVERTY and if you listen to our President and members of Congress, poverty is worse than it was when the war began. I have to ask Obama and Congress, WHERE IN HELL DID ALL THAT MONEY GO? I cannot even conceive trillions...
As for the failing auto industry: Obama and his cronies bailed out General Motors, Chrysler, etc., to reward their cronies in the United Auto Workers Union. Outrageous union contracts and outrageous government manufacturing standards were the catalyst that was driving the collapse of these auto-makers. Environmental regulations requiring the auto industry to produce vehicles the public did not want to purchase should have been revoked. GM and Chrysler should have been permitted to renegotiate their contract with the United Auto Workers. A contract that would temporarily reduce workers benefits while retaining the work force and providing the workers income. If the auto makers still failed and went bankrupt, they should have been permitted to do so. Other ambitious, entreprenurial business driven leaders would have taken the ball and ran for success. Of course the key to keeping the industry profitable, is less government regulation, government interference and not allowing a labor union to become so strong they cripple your industry.
As for Healthcare; the passage of a 2000 + healthcare bill that "is of dire necessity and immediate need" - but does not take affect for four years, was not to guarantee health coverage for the poor. The truth is, a socialist President and Congress wanted to take over 1/5th of the nation's economy and in truth, adding to the size of an already, bloated and obese federal government. The legislation is also payoff to SEIU, the union that controls the health industry, and which contributed huge sums of campaign money to the Obama campaign. There was absolutely no need for government to take over healthcare and if the President and Congress had really wanted to do something positive to reduce health costs, they could have passed legislation limiting malpractice awards to sensible dollar figures. The reason they didn't and won't, is because government is composed of and driven by attorneys, who profit mightily from the 30-40% they receive from every malpractice payoff. Also, BILLIONS $$ are being lost in medicaid and medicare fraud every year! The government could and should get rid of the lazy, unqualified Medicare and Medicaid investigation unit and replace it with ambitious, dedicated investigative professionals who doggedly pursue fraud. Instead of making the M&M investigation unit federal civil servants, protected by tenure, they could and should hire retired police professionals on a yearly contractual basis. These professionals would receive compensation based on the amount of fraud detected, prevented and successfully prosecuted.
Sadly, our federal government is out of control and it now employs thousands, perhaps as much as a million employees who are unqualified for their position and obtained their positon through appointment by a President or member of Congress that they supported for election. This dead wood is drawing a paycheck, living the good life and whiling away time toward retirement.
Well I am able to respond to President Obama, and my solutions for handling the challenges would act to the betterment of the United States of America.
As for the failing banks - who were losing money because they were directed by members of Congress to provide mortgages to people who were not qualified - I would have removed Congressional influence from the industry and let the banks foreclose. Throughout history, ambitious and industrious - and those are key words - citizens have dug their way out of failure and climbed ladders toward success. The entrepreneurial spirit and drive of these motivated citizens are what made America strong. When government starts bailing individuals and businesses out of debt, individuals lose the spirit and drive to succeed and look to government to make life easy for them. Of course, what they fail to realize is that in order to give money and aid to one segment of society, government has to take the money from another segment of society that is working hard and achieving success through their industry. In doing so, the self-achievers start saying, what in hell am I busting my ass for. I might just as well slow down and let government take care of me too. Eventually, that segment of society paying the taxes to keep government operating, is no longer able to provide the huge sum of money needed to keep the socialist system operating. The socialist government is then forced to increase the tax load on those still paying taxes, and so it goes, until the socialist system can no longer sustain itself and goes bankrupt. All one has to do to see proof of this, is track the history of Greece and examine how the socialist government systems presently operating in Europe are failing.
As for mortgages: minus credit and income, people are not entitled to own a home! Millions of people have rented apartments and lived modestly (including yours truly) until they were financially able to obtain a mortgage. It is not my responsibility, nor any other taxpayer's responsibility to pay the mortgage payments of another citizen. Government should NEVER have gotten involved in assisting with mortgage payments and requiring banks to re-work and reduce mortgage payments. Re-working a mortgage payment should be strictly between the bank and the person responsible for paying the mortgage. Government needs to keep its nose out of private industry!
As for helping the poor, President LBJ created the "War on Poverty" back in the 60's and it was hailed as the war that would end poverty in America" The war proved to be unwinnable and now some fifty years later, TEN TRILLION $$ HAVE BEEN SPENT ON THE WAR TO ELIMINATE POVERTY and if you listen to our President and members of Congress, poverty is worse than it was when the war began. I have to ask Obama and Congress, WHERE IN HELL DID ALL THAT MONEY GO? I cannot even conceive trillions...
As for the failing auto industry: Obama and his cronies bailed out General Motors, Chrysler, etc., to reward their cronies in the United Auto Workers Union. Outrageous union contracts and outrageous government manufacturing standards were the catalyst that was driving the collapse of these auto-makers. Environmental regulations requiring the auto industry to produce vehicles the public did not want to purchase should have been revoked. GM and Chrysler should have been permitted to renegotiate their contract with the United Auto Workers. A contract that would temporarily reduce workers benefits while retaining the work force and providing the workers income. If the auto makers still failed and went bankrupt, they should have been permitted to do so. Other ambitious, entreprenurial business driven leaders would have taken the ball and ran for success. Of course the key to keeping the industry profitable, is less government regulation, government interference and not allowing a labor union to become so strong they cripple your industry.
As for Healthcare; the passage of a 2000 + healthcare bill that "is of dire necessity and immediate need" - but does not take affect for four years, was not to guarantee health coverage for the poor. The truth is, a socialist President and Congress wanted to take over 1/5th of the nation's economy and in truth, adding to the size of an already, bloated and obese federal government. The legislation is also payoff to SEIU, the union that controls the health industry, and which contributed huge sums of campaign money to the Obama campaign. There was absolutely no need for government to take over healthcare and if the President and Congress had really wanted to do something positive to reduce health costs, they could have passed legislation limiting malpractice awards to sensible dollar figures.
