Too many Americans have come to rely on government to take care of them, and government has passed the point where it cannot do so any longer.
Politicians, whose sole aim is re-election, behave like enabling parents, giving the children whatever they want hoping for "love" in return, or in this case votes. The obituary of Sen. Robert Byrd, the West Virginia Democrat, said he served more time in Congress than anyone else. That, too, is an obscenity. The Founders did not intend public service to become self-service.
The definition of "addiction" best describes our increasing reliance on government: "Complete physiological need for and use of a habit-forming substance (heroin, nicotine or alcohol), characterized by tolerance and by well-defined physiological symptoms upon withdrawal." Just substitute "government" for the drugs and "psychological" for "physiological" and you have characterized our addiction to government. There are toll-free hot lines for drug addicts who wish to get clean. Who do you call to break free of an addiction to government? Certainly not the politicians; they're the pushers.
This is classic co-dependency. Politicians tell people what they want to hear, and voters elect them out of a sense of entitlement to other people's money. If you are successful and resist, you are called greedy, uncaring and a Republican! This class warfare has enriched the politicians who practice it, but it is impoverishing America.
Too many expect too much from government and too little from themselves. It used to be the other way around, but concepts such as initiative, self-control, frugality, persistence, honor, integrity and virtue went out about the time baby boomers began their cultural counterinsurgency.
The reason so few jobs are being created in the private sector (the labor force is shrinking and unemployment is more than 10 percent, if those who have given up looking for work are included) is because government has grown too big and is strangling the private sector, which is uncertain about the cost of ObamaCare and tax hikes.
The progressives want more reliance on government and less self-reliance. But this is not what America needs. Republicans, should they regain a majority in Congress this fall, and the White House in 2012, must have a serious talk with their fellow countrymen. We can't go on like this. We can't keep spending and taxing. We must stop asking our country to do more for us and begin doing more for ourselves.
Is there a visionary who will say and then do such things, regardless of the political consequences? He (or she) could quote Thomas Jefferson: "To preserve our independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our election between economy and liberty, or profusion and servitude."

RUSSIAN SPIES WERE TOO LATE ANYWAY IN TRYING TO DESTROY OUR COUNTRY
The Justice Department has announced that 10 people were arrested last week for "allegedly carrying out long-term, 'deep-cover' assignments in the United States on behalf of the Russian Federation." They were blending into the suburbs of New Jersey as "average Americans to infiltrate the society of this country. But if these spies were here to destroy capitalism and install Lenin's philosophy in the U.S., they are too late. We did that with Obama's election.
With his only experience being as a "community organizer" in Chicago, much of the reality of the dangerous world we live in is lost on this president.
The world is full of people and countries who want nothing more than the total destruction of America and her way of life. Having a president who is inexperienced, weak, naive, too egotistical to know what he doesn't know, and who constantly projects a disdain for his own country to the rest of the world, is a clear and present danger for us all. We ignore it at our peril. Obama would do well to remember that eternal vigilance is the price of freedom.
If the Russians want to destroy America, they best hurry before this administration beats them to the punch.

OBAMA & HOLDER: RACISTS, PROMOTERS OF BLACK VIOLENCE, AND FAILURES IN OFFICE
Gee...what a sweetheart this guy, Shabazz, is. I can see why Obama and Holder wouldn't want to prosecute him. He's just your everyday neighborhood thug...not really meaning any real harm. But I think if white guys behaved like this, they would be arrested...but I dunno! Perhaps for "hate crimes?" I guess that only applies to Tea Party members.
Hey Nancy Pelosi, is this the kind of hate and violent rhetoric you were crying about?
Instead of prosecuting this guy, dickwad Holder files a lawsuit against Arizona's illegal immigration law BECAUSE IT WOULD RESULT IN RACIAL PROFILING. WTF!
Neal Boortz summarizes these unbelievable and incomprehensible actions by Obama's lackey, Holder, thusly:

Neal Boortz summarizes these unbelievable and incomprehensible actions by Obama's lackey, Holder, thusly:
"Are you believing this? First we have the absolute refusal of the Obama Administration - and the Bush Administration before it - to protect our Southern border from the Mexican invasion and to enforce our immigration laws. Then we have the State of Arizona, besieged with crime, drugs and the costs that come with being the preferred crossing point for illegals. Finally Arizona has had enough and it passes it's own immigration law. Actually, it's a bit of a stretch to call this law "Arizona's" since it does nothing but take already existing federal law and codify it at the local level. So ... Obama's reaction? Does he apologize for his inattention to the invasion? Hardly. He instructs his dog washers in the Department of Justice to file a lawsuit against Arizona. The lawsuit says that Arizona is "usurping federal authority."
Let's cogitate on this for a moment. Federal law makes it illegal to cross the border into the United States without legal authorization. The Feds refuse to enforce the law.
Mexicans invade America across the Arizona border. Crime soars in Arizona. A rancher is killed. Phoenix becomes the kidnapping center of the U.S. Drugs flood across the border with the illegals.v The Feds do virtually nothing.
Finally Arizona passes a law making what is already a crime under federal law a crime under State law.
The Arizona law gives Arizona law enforcement the authority to do what federal law enforcement officers can already do ... but aren't.
Democrats see Hispanic votes slipping away if the law is enforced.
Obama instructs a lawsuit to be filed citing "usurping federal authority."
Question: Robbing a federally insured bank is a federal crime. It's also a crime under the statutes of the State of Arizona. Should the Justice Department file a lawsuit against Arizona demanding that Arizona law enforcement officials cease enforcing Arizona's law against robbing banks because it usurps federal authority? Just wondering.
And what about this particular U.S. Justice Department? Is this the same Justice Department that dismissed charges against that white-hating member of the New Black Panther Party who has warned black males that if they ever want to be free they're going to have to kill some white people and some white babies! The New Black Panther Party member who stood in front of a polling place in Philly during the last election waving a steel baton and making threatening remarks to white voters? THAT Justice Department?
The same Justice Department that is headed by a man who pardoned terrorists who shot up the U.S. Capitol? Yup! That's the same Justice Department alright.
So .. here's the picture. The federal government is NOT going to secure our border with Mexico; at least not until amnesty for the criminal aliens who have already crossed is arranged. Votes for Democrats, you know. So while the Federal government sits on its hands Hispandering ... Arizona acts, then gets taken to court.
Welcome to ObamaWorld."

MORE PROOF OF HOW UNIONS HAVE DEMOCRATS IN THEIR HIP POCKETS
Near midnight this past Thursday, Nancy Pelosi and her fellow Big Labor apologists in the U.S. House of Representatives disgracefully amended pending war funding legislation to include the Police and Firefighter Monopoly Bargaining Bill.
And this was no accident or last-minute decision. Further, she wasn't acting on her own. It was reported that the union-label House leadership had just days before met behind closed doors with Big Labor's high command, including AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka, AFSCME President Gerald McEntee, CWA President Larry Cohen, and IAFF General President Harold Schaitberger.
Knowing the widespread opposition to their union boss power grab, the union barons demanded their allies in the House sneak the dangerous bill into a "must pass vehicle." Nancy Pelosi was happy to oblige her Big Labor masters. As you know, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has been itching to ram through this bill for weeks, but outcry delayed his efforts before the Senate adjourned for Independence Day.
And now that Police and Firefighter Monopoly Bargaining has made it through the House (albeit through desperate tactics), the battle in the Senate will be more crucial than ever. Because of the November elections time is running out for Big Labor. But as we saw this week, the union bosses will do whatever it takes to strengthen their grip on hardworking Americans.
That's why we must stay vigilant. If you haven't already, please call or fax your Senators demanding they oppose Police and Firefighter Monopoly Bargaining. STOP THIS UNION TAKEOVER OF OUR LIVES!

HAPPY "DEPENDENCE DAY!"
"The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money."
-----------Alexis de Tocqueville, author of Democracy in America
And that is exactly what our Liar-in-Chief is doing to us with his Stimulus Bill, TARP, Cap & Trade Plan, etc. Did you realize that only about 45% of the "emergency" stimulus fund has been spent? The rest will be used to help Dems in their re-election campaigns. THAT'S RIGHT...OUR MONEY!

AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL MEXICAN ALIENS (...err, I mean "undocumented Democrat voters")...ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
On June 30th, the Liar-in-Chief gave a speech at a Town Hall Meeting in Racine, WI, during which he told so many lies that I could spend the entire 4th of July weekend refuting them. I thought to myself as he was spouting off his bullshit as to why the people sitting there...obviously ObamaZombies.. didn't get up and leave as a form of silent protest over the crap he was shoveling out. Were they that Stupid? (they must've been)
But I digress! Today I just want to focus on his promotional ideology for general amnesty and his statement that "...the borders today are safer than ever before." Oh, please! Gag me with the Peace Prize! For instance, the New York Times reports today (TODAY) that nearly two dozen people were killed in a Mexican border area on Thursday during a fierce gun battle between suspected members of rival drug gangs. KILLED! Oh yeah, the border is much safer now.
In her column today, Michelle Malkin reports that the Founding Fathers were emphatically insistent on protecting the country against indiscriminate mass immigration. They insisted on assimilation as a pre-condition, not an afterthought.
Historian John Fonte assembled their wisdom, and it bears repeating this Independence Day weekend:
George Washington, in a letter to John Adams, stated that immigrants should be absorbed into American life so that "by an intermixture with our people, they, or their descendants, get assimilated to our customs, measures, laws: in a word soon become one people."
In a 1790 speech to Congress on the naturalization of immigrants, James Madison stated that America should welcome the immigrant who could assimilate, but exclude the immigrant who could not readily "incorporate himself into our society."
Alexander Hamilton wrote in 1802: "The safety of a republic depends essentially on the energy of a common national sentiment; on a uniformity of principles and habits; on the exemption of the citizens from foreign bias and prejudice; and on that love of country which will almost invariably be found to be closely connected with birth, education and family."
Hamilton further warned that "The United States have already felt the evils of incorporating a large number of foreigners into their national mass; by promoting in different classes different predilections in favor of particular foreign nations, and antipathies against others, it has served very much to divide the community and to distract our councils. It has been often likely to compromise the interests of our own country in favor of another. The permanent effect of such a policy will be, that in times of great public danger there will be always a numerous body of men, of whom there may be just grounds of distrust; the suspicion alone will weaken the strength of the nation, but their force may be actually employed in assisting an invader."
The survival of the American republic, Hamilton maintained, depends upon "the preservation of a national spirit and a national character." "To admit foreigners indiscriminately to the rights of citizens the moment they put foot in our country would be nothing less than to admit the Grecian horse into the citadel of our liberty and sovereignty."
_As pro-amnesty extremists moan that "we didn't cross the borders, the borders crossed us" and illegal alien marchers haul foreign flags above Old Glory, President Obama pretends that the "common national sentiment" our Founding Fathers embraced still binds us all together. Many of us still have faith in a strong, sovereign America -- the unhyphenated, the law-abiding, the gratitude-filled sons and daughters and grandchildren of legal immigrants for whom such distinctions still matter. But it's no thanks to the assimilation saboteurs who put "one world" over "one nation under God."
GENERAL AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL MEXICAN ALIENS (...err, I mean "undocumented Democrat voters")...ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? DOESN'T ANYBODY EVER WATCH "GANGLAND" ON THE HISTORY CHANNEL?
AND WHY ISN'T ANYONE LISTENING TO THE WISDOM OF OUR FOUNDING FATHERS??? I believe its because Obama and his Democratic minions are willing to sell out our country to maintain their political power over American citizens.
FIGHT BACK, AMERICA....DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN!
