Open Letter to Congress from Val Stevens - Vote NO on Obamacare

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

valstevens[This letter was written by a long-time, pro-life, constitutional patriot, Senator Val Stevens of Washington State. Please get hold of your congressman today - use this material, or read them the letter. We must stop this travesty of the Constitution by the self-proclaimed constitutional professor, President Obama.]

Dear ___________________,

President Obama’s national health care bill is now being rammed through the U.S. House of Representatives like a freight train through a dark tunnel.

The 1,000-page document was rushed through committee hearings in just one day. Sadly, it is not a well-thought-out, bipartisan effort, but a force-feeding of the American public – and it distresses me greatly.

If passed, this legislation creating a “public health care plan,” would literally destroy the instant-access, high-quality health care that a majority of Americans have come to rely on.

Why Obama Wants to Rush Health Care Reform

from the article “We’ve Figured Him Out”

Why is President Barack Obama in such a hurry to get his socialized medicine bill passed?

Because he and his cunning circle realize some basic truths:

The American people in their unimaginable kindness and trust voted for a pig in a poke in 2008. They wanted so much to believe Barack Obama was somehow better and different from other ultra-leftists that they simply took him on faith.

They ignored his anti-white writings in his books. They ignored his quiet acceptance of hysterical anti-American diatribes by his minister, Jeremiah Wright.

They ignored his refusal to explain years at a time of his life as a student. They ignored his ultra-left record as a “community organizer,” Illinois state legislator, and Senator.

The American people ignored his total zero of an academic record as a student and teacher, his complete lack of scholarship when he was being touted as a scholar.

Now, the American people are starting to wake up to the truth. (more…)

Divorce Agreement: Dividing the Assets

Thursday, July 16th, 2009

Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters, et al:

We have stuck together since the late 1950’s, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has run its course. Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right so let’s just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way.

Here is a model separation agreement:

Another Reason You Cannot Trust Snopes Or Factcheck

Wednesday, July 15th, 2009

Here is ANOTHER reason you cannot trust Snopes and Factcheck (and, of course, Wikipedia). Snopes, UPI, Wikipedia, Factcheck, Kapi’olani Medical Center attempt to sync Obama’s birthplace.

[ Stolen from: http://www.sonorannews.com ]

HONOLULU – Since Jan. 24, 2009, the Kapi’olani Medical Center for Women and Children has apparently had a letter posted on its website to share congratulations on its centennial celebration from President Barack Obama.

In it Obama states, “As a beneficiary of the excellence of Kapi’olani Medical Center – the place of my birth – I am pleased to add my voice to the chorus of supporters.”

Within an hour of WorldNetDaily (wnd.com) posting an article questioning the letter’s authenticity, noting it was used by the hospital for its fundraising efforts, a host of internet scrubbing bubbles went to work.

Obama Letter Endorsing Sotomayor

Tuesday, July 14th, 2009

sotomayorThis morning I received an email from President Obama endorsing Judge Sonia Sotomayor for the position of Supreme Court Justice. In the letter he claims to advise me “about the qualifications and character that informed [his] decision to nominate Judge Sotomayor.”

About qualifications, there is a short paragraph composed of a non-descript list. It is quite subjective and is worded to give you the impression that she has practiced law since birth and “has more experience on the federal bench than any incoming Supreme Court Justice in the last 100 years.” As I said - quite subjective. He might as well said “a bazillion years.”

Dinner with Obama

Wednesday, July 8th, 2009

cheobamaOnce upon a time, I was invited to the White House for a private dinner with the President. I am a respected businessman, with a factory that produces memory chips for computers and portable electronics. There was some talk that my industry was being scrutinized by the administration, but I paid it no mind. I live in a free country. There’s nothing that the government can do to me if I’ve broken no laws. My wealth was earned honestly, and an invitation to dinner with an American President is an honor.

I checked my coat, was greeted by the Chief of Staff, and joined the President in a yellow dining room. We sat across from each other at a table draped in white linen. The Great Seal was embossed on the china. Uniformed staff served our dinner.

Will We Ascribe Our President As God?

Wednesday, June 17th, 2009

It was the medieval and ancient times that man regarded the king to be God, or a god. This was the foundation of the Greek myths. It was evidenced in the Bible in the account of Nimrod. The Bible does not go into details of the life of Nimrod, only to mention he was a mighty hunter and established at least eight major cities including Babylon and Ninevah. The secular accounts tell of his gruesome battles and victories and that he was considered to be a god. It was in this mindset that he set about to prevent the people from fulfilling their mandate from God to create urban sprawl and rounded them up to build the Tower of Babel to commemorate and celebrate the accomplishments of man.

King Herod and mere puppet for Caesar considered himself to be a god and did not silence the people when they worshiped him. The Bible tells us, in chapter twelve of Acts, when he accepted the praise of man and failed to give glory to God, he was struck down and immediately eaten by worms and died.

In America, the land of the free and home of the brave, we have become overrun by bureaucrats. Many of them believe themselves to be gods. In fact, they hold the power of God over a man’s life and business. Even many bureaucrats who profess to be Christian, have no fear of God but continue to build empires and despise their brothers’ freedoms.

An Open Letter to President Obama

Tuesday, June 9th, 2009

libertybellBy Lou Pritchett

Dear President Obama:

You are the thirteenth President under whom I have lived and unlike any of the others, you truly scare me.

You scare me because after months of exposure, I know nothing about you.

You scare me because I do not know how you paid for your expensive Ivy League education and your upscale lifestyle and housing with no visible signs of support.

You scare me because you did not spend the formative years of youth growing up in America and culturally you are not an American.

You scare me because you have never run a company or met a payroll.

You scare me because you have never had military experience, thus don’t understand it at its core.

You scare me because you lack humility and ‘class’, always blaming others.
