Obama Likes to Party – Forget the Politics!

29 Sep

Ok, so maybe I am being a bit dramatic here. Who doesn’t like to make everyday a celebration – right? Well… I just wanted to point out 2 things that have happened within the last month – during stressful controversial times for Pres. Obama. In two recent speeches, one being yesterday:

ObamaSigns_Again

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the
United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in
me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do
hereby proclaim September 28, 2009, as Family Day. I call upon
the people of the United States to join together in observing
this day with appropriate ceremonies and activities to honor and
strengthen our Nation’s families.

and back in the end of August:

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim August 30 through September 5, 2009, as National Historically Black Colleges and Universities Week.

Honestly… is it just me who’s seeing something ODD about all this “I therefore proclaim _________ to be ___________day.” Now, let’s CELEBRATE!

Some liberals would say, “Well, it’s hard times. It’s good that he’s creating so many reasons to celebrate”. Sure sure… but I say, let’s get back to Politics here and FOCUS! And while you’re at it… could you go back and edit the Aug. 30 to Sept. 5th to be National Historical American Colleges and Universities Week so we ALLLLLLLL Black, Latino, Asian, Indian, Caucasian, Islander, Philippino,  Samoan, Tongan People can celebrate. We’re kind of feeling left out. Correct me if I’m wrong, but you promised to UNITE us?

Thank you,

Rebecca

Obama Socialistic Agenda

14 Sep

I am astounded at the hypocrisy that politics instills upon the general public when it comes to anyone/anything being called “socialism” or “socialistic”. Obama just happens to be a Black person, and any disagreement w/ his policies immediately lands us “right winged” individuals as ‘Racists”. Oh please.

I’m for common sense.

Def. of Socialism: a theory or system of social organization that advocates the vesting of the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution, of capital, land, etc., in the community as a whole.

[source]: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/socialism

Description of ‘Socialized Medicine’: According to health economist Uwe Reinhardt, “strictly speaking, the term ‘socialized medicine’ should be reserved for health systems in which the government operates the production of health care and provides its financing”…

With the Government now owning the Automobile industry having paid off their debt WITH debt, it owning the banks and paying off their debt w/ debt, and now going after the Health Care system… seems ‘socialized’ to me.

Therefore, call it what you may – but down to the nitty gritty of it all, Socialism is defined socialism no matter how much you deny it.

Spending another Trillion dollars to “fix the problem” is to only blindly cover up what is really causing the problem. I agree with Sen. Orrin Hatch when he says that 85% of Americans already have Health Care. Why not fix the system in place by enforcing regulations w/o spending American Taxpayers money and moving our Country further in debt?

I don’t know about you, but I don’t want a health care plan that will remove the freedom I have to schedule an appointment, know that I will be looked at with quality care and spend as much time as I want speaking with a Dr. Otherwise, there will be LONG waits at the Dr.’s office. There will be lower quality Health Care, there will be MORE money spent OUT of our pockets!

Socialistic plans are never the answer.

Michael Moore’s philosophy of “Well, if you call it ‘Socialism’ you might as well call Libraries ‘socialistic’” is a naive approach to the reality at hand. We all – both right & left winged “parties” have to look at the BIGGER picture. Government run programs and plans such as this Health Care plan removes little by little the American Public’s  freedom and INDEPENDENCE that we founded this great nation upon. By agreeing with Obama’s Health Care plan is to agree with stripping America of Independence.

You do have the right to disagree with this “right-winged” opinion and follow Obama’s Plan, but when it’s all said and done, you will not have the freedom to turn it back around. The more the Government owns the less our voices are heard. Think about it. We might as well hand over our Independence back to England and Rewind back the clock to having a King… oh “mighty” King Obama! :P

If this doesn’t open our minds as to what’s going on, nothing will!

Eight Years Ago Today…

11 Sep

My High School journal entry from that day as shown on my previous ‘Yearbooks Post‘…

Tue 9-11-01

*When I heard I was in 6th period in seminary, about 9:30 – 10: 00 AM. Possible WW3!!!

AMERICA IS UNDER ATTACK!

Today the trade building (used to be the tallest buildings in America) got ran into by 2 high jacked planes, in New York. One other plane ran into the Pentagon & another crashed into Pennsylvania. All planes were high jacked. I am still shocked & stunned reality hasn’t hit me yet. The possibility of a WW3 scares me. The fact that there are still such evils in the world that these terrorists could take passenger planes & kill everyone on board.

The storys of the relatives of killed people that have been on the radio & TV all day of the calls they received from loved ones on board the plane before they died, aches my heart. Even though I didn’t lose anyone or didn’t know any of the people effected it still hurts me to know others are hurting & I can’t help or comfort because I’m too far away… It’s affected the whole nation & everyone is changed. Their perspective of life has changed more humbly, I know mine has. Today for the 1st time in awhile I think people completely turned off their obsessions of media & whats going on in hollywood & all that crap & have hit reality in the face of real life & concern of those in suffering. Forget all the riches & high society in the world & focus on the dieing & suffering. I don’t know, all I can say, this event today has shaken me up & has changed my life! Something I will NEVER forget!

p.s. I was in seminary (Bro. Olsen’s) when I heard about it.
