Here’s a clip from Red Skelton’s 1969 TV show where he conveys the true meaning of the Pledge of Allegiance and prophetically laments its unexcusable demise as a daily mainstay in the American public school regimen…

It would be difficult to believe, if this sort of corrupt dealing wasn’t commonplace in Washington.
Well the progressives are going for it and they are going to use our children, rapidly becoming the largest demographic in the country, to do it. Our liberally progressive national education system has significantly influenced this over the past 40 years and now prominent progressives are exploiting the very youth that they have infiltrated with their anti-American rabble.
Please take the time to listen to the 4:44 minute video located at the link below. You’re going to hear all the fancy buzz words bandied about that progressives just love; words like “just”, “sustainable”, “change”, “birthright”, “inheritance”, “disparity”, “diversity”, “preservation”, etc.
What most of our youth doesn’t realize, by no necessary fault of their own, because of their filtered education, is that America is exceptional among all others that have ever existed on Earth. This exceptionalism is, however, being threatened and intentionally marginalized by the very progressives that they prop up with talk about American arrogance; distress with economic, nutrition, heathcare and education disparity among peoples; and global initiatives to “solve” all of these “problems”. The basic premise of their belief is to solve problems from the top down instead of the bottom up and rely upon others (government) to provide to them that to which they are entitled by birthright. This flies in the face of the small government, personal responsibility, power in the hands of the individual mentality instilled by the U.S. Constitution. Unfortunately, due to our tainted public education system, most of our youth doesn’t know anything about this foundational document or they have been led to believe that it is an outdated concept. Our departure from our founding roots, policies of which the progressives in this country have been embracing and instituting for the past 100 years, is the true origin of the “problems” that are touted in this video.

Anthony Gargiula renders a version of our national anthem that will bring you to tears, particularly when you consider his age combined with the conviction of his performance. Take a minute and a half out of your day to listen to this so you can be inspired by an example of American Exceptionalism for the balance of it…

Here’s a WorldNetDaily article which chronicles an example of the rationing threat posed by any government run healthcare system, including the one currently actively being pursued in the U.S. Congress…

America is back, baby!
January 19, 2010, in this man’s humble opinion, will go down in the annals of American history as a significant milestone for the republic and all for which it stands as established by our founding fathers and the U.S. Constitution. The beginning of the end of the progressive, socialist, big government movement being made by the Obama Administration and this Congress and the start of the resurgence of the real America, entrenched in the values of small government and personal responsibility bestowed upon us by our founders.
Last night, Massachusetts, a perennial hotbed of liberal ideals, voted against big government in favor of the conservative Republican. In the special election to fill recently deceased Ted Kennedy’s Senate seat, Republican Scott Brown delivered a crushing defeat to Democrat Martha Coakley, 52% to 47%, equating to a margin of about 120,000 votes. This extremely unlikely result (Martha Coakley had an over 20% lead in the polls on December 19, at which time she decided it was OK for her to take a 2 week Christmas break from public appearances) should have any intelligent congressman reeling, particularly the Democrats who are masquerading as Obama-Pelosi-Reed lap dogs.
The ramifications and reasoning are astounding:
America has spoken loudly through Massachusetts. This is a microcosm of the Tea Party sentiment which has been being conveyed across this great land since the inception of the Obama Administration and its extreme left Democrat controlled Congress last January. If such an election result can occur in this predominantly liberal minded state (Democrats outnumber Republicans 3 to 1 and Obama won by 27% in the 2008 Presidential election), what’s going to happen in all the critical Congressional elections which will occur later this year in November? Democrats who value their jobs will definitely be rethinking their votes.
The Democrats have now lost their filibuster proof majority of 60 in the Senate. If NOT ONE Republican votes for a bill, then it cannot pass. This, for all intensive purposes, should shutdown the healthcare bill anywhere close to its current socialist form, the cap & trade bill, and the future anticipated immigration amnesty bill. If passed, this trifecta of reforms would have senselessly crippled our economy for decades and would have passed on the check to our children and theirs.
In exit polls, the overwhelming majority of voters identified the reason for their vote was the current healthcare bill. The disapproval with this bill by the huge majority of Americans is monumental and the disregard of this opinion by Congressional Democrats is staggering to say the least and unethical & even criminal to say the most. Nearly 75% of undecided party voters cast their ballot in favor of the Republican, whose simple conservative platform was small government, personal responsibility and strong defense.
Embedded in this remarkable story line are incredible ironies surrounding Ted Kennedy. Ted, the man who waited his life for a single payer government controlled healthcare system to be passed, stood on the precipice of seeing it to fruition at the time of his death in August 2009. Now, as a result of his death, this special election was held to fill the seat that he held for 47 years and that seat is taken by a conservative Republican who vows to vote against the very healthcare bill that Ted Kennedy endorsed. That’s not it, though. The true irony is the fact that Ted Kennedy’s sincere desire to provide at a cost palatable to the average American, the same outstanding healthcare that enabled him to overcome for so long the cancer to which he eventually succombed, has a much better chance of coming to fruition with the defeat of this travesty of a healthcare bill which, in reality, has nothing to do with healthcare and everything to do with government control. It’s unfortunate that he didn’t recognize that when he had the opportunity to influence it.
Heresay has it that the Democrat machine is working on a plan to procedurally delay the approval of Scott Brown into the Senate. This is an absolute no win for them. If they proceed with such a tactic, they will be villified by mainstream America in a way which will dwarf what they’ve seen so far. If they don’t do this, however, they will in all probability lose their precious healthcare bill, an effort that has already been openly acknowledged by the majority leadership will sacrifice the Democrat majority in both houses come November. Hey, you Democrat in Congress: it sure sucks to be you!
This is a great day to be an American! However, after the smoke clears on this monumental victory, the hard work to reverse the current progressive, socialist direction and stabilize the republic, truly begins. Do NOT get complacent!
Executive Orders (EO) themselves fly in the face of one of the tenets of our U.S. Constitution, despite having been exercised by every U.S. President since George Washington. In general, it takes a 2/3 majority of Congress to override an Executive Order.
The International Criminal Police Organization or Interpol’s primary function is to collect and share information on international criminals with countries federal police agencies - the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for the U.S. Why, at this time, would President Obama amend a standing Executive Order bestowing diplomatic immunity privileges upon Interpol, exempting Interpol from search and seizure by law enforcement including the FBI, exemption from U.S. taxes, and immunity from FOIA requests? This happened with little mainstream media fanfare (of course) on December 16th.
As stated by WorldNetDaily, “Anthony Martin at the Examiner noted the international agency (Interpol) now can operate in the U.S. will (sic) ’full immunity’ from U.S. laws and “with complete independence from oversight from the FBI.”
Some of my thoughts on Obama’s potential “true objective(s)” of this Executive Order based upon past actions by the Obama Administration…
1. Is Obama positioning the U.S. for oversight by a “higher order” international government and police entity?
2. Could this be a critical piece of the puzzle toward organizing a civilian force that rivals the U.S. military as he has previously stated as one of his objectives?
3. Is there information on Obama’s purported checkered past (and those of the many criminals from whom he seeks counsel) dangerously close to being made public, such that he needs a vehicle to protect it from ever seeing the light of day? Potential examples, to name only a few, are his radical associations, his true Islamic heritage and the origin of his “real” birth certificate.
4. Is he attempting to control the dissemination of information which could thwart malevolent Islamic terrorist activities throughout the world such as to corruptively support his international diversity initiative (ie. his goal to prop up every nation in the world by undermining everything that America has stood and for which it stands as an appeasement olive branch)?
I suggest you draw your own conclusions on this most suspicious EO amendment, which undermines the Interpol exemptions that were put in place when this EO 12425 was originated by Ronald Reagan in 1983.

Robin of Berkeley in the American Thinker writes an introspective piece on her gravitation to liberalism under false pretenses and recent movement away from that ideology after being “illuminated” by its true intentions. Robin nails the far left where they truly live and relates that Sarah Palin’s continuous and unabated verbal crucifixion by these people is exposing their true colors in a way they have never been before.
Please take the time to enjoy the journey of Robin from the bowels of liberalism to the illumination of conservatism…

Remember when George W. Bush was castigated by the mainstream media when he replaced several federal attorneys who happened to be Democrats (even though Bill Clinton did the same thing to 90+ federal attorneys at the beginning of his administration)? This practice is typical since federal attorneys are understood to be government employees who serve at the whim of the acting President.
Well, the Comrade Obama Administration is taking this many steps further. Their recently instituted policy opens the door for them to terminate any Republican appointed to a civil service position within the last 5 years (the period which NOT coincidentally, begins with the end of George W. Bush’s first term as President). Looks like Obama is clearing the way in the civil service realm the same way he is everywhere else… to be politically uncontested for every statist policy that he institutes.
Here are the details per RedState.com…

If you can believe it, this issue, which, of course, remains untouched by our gatekeepers of democracy, the mainstream media, is probably MORE IMPORTANT to our families’ collective futures than healthcare, cap and trade, and illegal immigration legislation combined.
According to Lord Christopher Monckton, a recognized man-made climate change skeptic, who has read the United Nations Global Climate Change Treaty, this document is no more than a guise to establish a New World Communist government. It’s, basically, Obama’s U.S. cap & trade and redistribution of wealth policies on steroids at the international level, enabling the U.S. to fund the global climate change hoax on a worldwide level, however, it’s much more sinister than that.
The kicker is that if this treaty is signed by Obama (and all indications are that the Nobel Peace Prize laureate will not back down from this grand opportunity to further subjugate the U.S. and become a leader in the New World government - it’s a dream come true for our Community Organizer in Chief), our very Constitution prevents us from ever correcting the malevolence. The reason is this treaty takes precedence over our Consititution and withdrawing from it requires approval from all the other signing member countries, which won’t happen because we’ll be the primary funder.
This conference takes place in Copenhagen in December. Please pass this to everyone you know and let’s jointly figure out how we can most efficiently and rapidly get the word out to patriotic Americans about this travesty. I’m thinking a billboard campaign funded by a website and social networking?
