Common Sense

“I wasn’t a great communicator, but I communicated great things, and they didn’t spring full bloom from my brow, they came from the heart of a great nation-from our experience, our wisdom, and our belief in the principles that have guided us for two centuries. They called it the Reagan revolution. Well, I’ll accept that, but for me it always seemed more like the great rediscovery, a rediscover of our values and our common sense.“

Newt Gingrich just lost my vote for 2012

Damn it Newt, you just lost my vote because of what you said on Illegal Immigration.  Newt Gingrich has just placed me firmly in the Mitt Romney camp.  Mitt Romney said the right thing: ANY type of amnesty is just a magnet for more illegals.  No magnet and they don't come here, simple as that.  If they are here Legally == NO PROBLEM, if they are here ILLEGALLY == BIG PROBLEM, there should be NO quarter for them.  We effectively have an invasion of 15 million into our country, THIS NEEDS TO BE STOPPED AT ALL COSTS.  YES we can deport damn near all of them, America needs to take a VERY tough stance on ILLEGAL Immigration and stopthisinvasion of our borders ASAP. 

ANY, and I mean ANY, candidate that considers the rights of an illgeal immigrant over mine (a US Citizen) should NOT be in higher office. Your solemn duty as President is to protect the AMERICAN people FIRST and FOREMOST!!!!  Not some ILLEGAL THAT IS SPITTING ON OUR COUNTRY!!! 

Newt won't be President, but I'd still love him for Vice President!

Mitt Romney, you can count me as +1 for you because of your stance on ILLEGAL immigrant magnets versus LEGAL immigration.  I say this as a son of a legal immigrant who became a US citizen the right way. 

 

UPDATE:  Wait a Minute!!!

2012 President will be....

My choice for President/Vice President of the United States would be ANY 2 of the following 3 people.

Herman Cain - This man is simply awesome, everything he says so far has been music to my ears.  We had a black LIBERAL President in Barak Obama, who quite literally is ruining America as we speak.  Lets get a black CONSERVATIVE, or at the very least a free market business man with actual executive experience.  The more Herman Cain speaks the more I like him and believe he's the guy we need at the top right now.

Newt Gingrich -  I think Newt Gingrich is someone who would be a superb Vice President, the man knows the ins and outs of Congress and can actually get things done there.  He has so many ideas, GOOD ideas, for America, the man is a true patriot and deserves his chance, he earned it, unlike the current occupant in the White House.

He would be, 1 word: EFFECTIVE.  Exactly what we need!
 
or Mitt Romney - The man just looks Presidential, and he's got a good economic record and experience. He says almost always the right thing, except for Romneycare in Massachusetts, but he explained that it's a Statesissues and not a federal one-fits-all healthcare, which is a decent recovery, but if there was one weakspot with Mitt Romney it is his public health insurance plan.  BUT...In the larger picture of things he is strong on nearly everything else, and more importantly NOT-negative with his background and experiences. 

I could go one and on about my top 3 Presidential candidates above, but to be honest I would be SUPER happy to see any combination of the above as President/Vice President of the United States of America. 

I'm going mention Gov. Rick Perry here simply for the fact that I was seriously considering him as one of my top 2 candidates, but after hearing his stance on ILLEGAL immigration.  He is no longer a serious candidate.  ANY CANDIDATE that puts the interests of NON-US CITIZENS OVER the rights of AMERICAN Citizens, should NEVER, EVER, EVER HOLD AN OFFICE OF POWER...EVER!!!!!  Gov. Perry went from top tier candidate to a non-candidate because of 1 issue - ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.  He will never recover because of this, not in my eyes.

Whatever we do, whoever we vote for, it HAS TO BE ANYBODY BUT BARACK OBAMA or another Socialist Democrat.  The United States of America literally cannot afford another 4 years of the willful destruction of everything great in America by none other than President Barack Obama, Congressional DEMOCRATS, the EPA, and the Eric Holder JUSTICE DEPARTMENT.

Was Obama Overridden on Bin Laden Raid by Sec.Def and Sec.State?

Did Senior Military/Intelligence Officials Overrule President Obama Regarding Mission to Kill Osama Bin Laden? | Newsflavor

WOW, All I can say is WOW!!  If the information in this report is true then, just... WOW, we have a dumber empty suit in the White House now than I thought was even possible.   

The picture says a lot.  And the information about this episode came from:

Note:  This communication came from our long time D.C. Insider and details previous and ongoing conflicts surrounding the decision to assassinate terrorist Osama Bin Laden.  This has been reproduced here as originally communicated to us.

__________

Please get this out ASAP.  Want specific people to know we know.


The report from the source goes on to state that:
RE Osama Bin Laden.  Significant push to take him out months ago.  Senior WH staff resisted.  This was cause of much strain between HC and Obama/Jarrett.  HC and LP were in constant communication over matter – both attempted to convince administration to act.  Administration feared failure and resulting negative impact on president.  Intel disgusted over politics over national security.  Staff resigned/left.  Check timeline to corroborate.
  And:

Point of determination made FOR Obama not BY Obama.  Will clarify as details become more clear.  Very clear divide between Military and WH.  Jarrett marginalized 100% on decision to take out OBL.  She played no part.  BD worked with LP and HC to form coalition to force CoC to engage.

IMPORTANT SPECIFIC:  When 48 hour go order issued, CoC was told, not requested.  Administration scrambled to abort That order was overruled.  This order did not originate from CoC.  Repeat – this order did not originate from CoC.  He complied, but did not originate.

Independent military contacts have confirmed.  Stories corroborate one another.  This is legit.

The killing of Osama Bin Laden was in fact a Coup within Obama WH.


Use the following legend for abbreviations:
HC = Hillary Clinton
BD = Bill Daley
LP = Leon Panetta
CoC = Chain of Command/Commander in Chief


The angry, "I've been marginalized" look on President Obamas' face is priceless, not to mention he is sitting in a chair in the corner with no computer screen in front of him (when everyone else important does) which would indicate that he had just arrived from somewhere else and was not part of the planning.  You would think the Commander in Chief would have the best seat/chair in the place.  Hell, even Vice President Joe Biden has a laptop in front of him and a better/proper seat than President Obama does. 



I can only speculate so much as this information is coming from someone else, but knowing President Obama's lack of decision making over the last 2 1/2 years when it comes to military decisions, this could have been a real deal power coup inside the Obama Administration.  This will be interesting to see play out in the months ahead of the 2012 Presidential Election where I'm sure more of this will come out or at the very least be challenged by more people the more this story gets out.  Especially because of all the "Obama Killed Osama" victory tour President Obama has been on.

Bin Laden - DEAD - Did we just give the Chinese and Pakistanis stealth technology?

While I feel great relief from the killing of the mass murdering terrorist Osama bin Laden, I cannot help but wonder if we caused more harm than good for ourselves in our raid of the Abbottabad, Pakistan compound. 

I mean this not in the sense that we may create more terrorists or be on the receiving end of revenge attacks.  I mean this in the sense that we had to blow up one of our stealth helicopters and leave it there at the scene.  Thus leaving being a highly exploitable stealth aircraft which is now in the hands of our enemies. 

Well, now that wreckage is GONE.... no where to be found and most likely in the hands of the Chinese military now being exploited for it's stealth capabilities. 

WHAT IDIOT AUTHORIZED THE USE OF THESE STEALTH HELICOPTERS AND DECIDED IT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO LEAVE IT THERE AFTER IT WAS DISABLED ?!?!?!?    Take the damn thing with you...tow it out if you have to but don't leave highly sensitive military gear laying the backyard of our enemies, disabled or not, this was a STUPID, I repeat - STUPID thing to do. 

I cannot but help to think that by getting bin Laden we simultaneously gave away our most valuable military technology to our enemies.  Talk about counter-productive. 

While getting Osama bin Laden was a good thing, the reports of the details of the post raid actions clearly show the amateurish nature of the Obama Administration.  While in it's zeal to get bin Laden, The Obama Administration may have just given away the keys to the US military's stealth advantage, thus rendering our military and all future operations extremely exposed to new stealth countermeasures which will be created by studying the stealth helicopter wreckage left behind.

I can only hope to God himself that the Obama Administration is doing EVERYTHING, and I mean EVERYTHING it can to get that helicopter wreckage back, ALL OF IT.  IT CANNOT GO TO THE CHINESE!!!!!!!

So while killing bin Laden was great, I fear we just helped dig our own grave by giving away the stealth secrets we use because we left that stealth helicopter there. 


STUPID!!!!

Nile Gardiner - On Point, Once Again

Do tyrants fear America anymore? President Obama’s timid foreign policy is an embarrassment for a global superpower – Telegraph Blogs

Seriously when it takes a British reporter to do the job of the US media, something is awfully wrong.  Nile Gardiner is spot on with this article about the leaderless empty suit in the White House.  Barak Obama's presidency has been an embarrassment to the United States around the globe. 
The fact that it took ten days and at least a thousand dead on the streets of Libya’s cities before President Obama finally mustered the courage to call for Muammar “mad dog” Gaddafi to step down is highly embarrassing for the world’s only superpower, and emblematic of a deer-in-the-headlights approach to world leadership. Washington seems incapable of decisive decision-making on foreign policy at the moment, a far cry from the days when it swept entire regimes from power, and defeated America’s enemies with deep-seated conviction and an unshakeable drive for victory.
This was PRECISELY the issue with Obama back in 2007/2008 when he was running for the White House.  Let me state it clearly: THEN MAN HAS ZERO EXPERIENCE IN MANAGING ANYTHING!!!!   The man stands for EVERYTHING WRONG, everything that true Americans stand for, Obama stands AGAINST.  It is unbelievably obvious to anyone who is not on their knees sucking at the Liberal/Progressive Kool-Aid tit. 

The entire article by Nile Gardiner is very good and points out - for anyone still without a clue - that Barak Obama does NOT know what he is doing as President.

Col Allen West....Simply AWESOME!

Video: CAIR confronts Allen West « Hot Air

Col Allen West is AWESOME! This man NEEDS to run for higher office.  Everyone says people who support the Tea Party are racist, but then there is Col. Allen West.  The man tells it like it is and takes no BS.  This is a man I would vote for in a heartbeat.  The man served his country, protected his country, fought for his country...and is STILL fighting for his country. 

THIS IS THE TYPE OF LEADERSHIP WE NEED IN THE WHITE HOUSE!!!!  Barak Obama take notice...

THANK YOU Sen. Ralph Shortey - For Saying what LEGAL Hispanics Think About ILLEGAL Immigration

Oklahoma Senate Panel Pushes Forward Bill Eliminating 'Birthright Citizenship' - FoxNews.com
"Legal Hispanics in my district are very supportive of these laws," Shortey said. "Illegal Hispanics are not, and to be quite honest, I really don't care what they think."
AMEN.!!!  Finally someone with some balls to start pushing back against the ILLEGAL Immigration crowd.  I am the son of a LEGAL immigrant who became a US citizen.  My mother, who immigrated from Guatemala LEGALLY and became a US citizen.  A moment she was so very proud of, a moment that is now tarnished with the notion that 12million+ ILLEGALS have come and made that day, that ceremonious day, worked hard for and longed for, practically worthless. 

What is the value of American Citizenship if it is given away for free?  Taken at will?  Defended, not at all?

The ILLEGAL immigrants who are in this country, regardless of the reasons they came here for, regardless of how long they have been here for.....THEY ARE ILLEGAL!!!!!!!  The notion that some how, some way these LAW BREAKERS - FEDERAL LAW BREAKERS deserve a US citizenship is abhorrent to every single LEGAL US citizen who immigrated to the USA LEGALLY, went through the process of learning English, learned American history, and learned what it meant to be a US citizen.  The process takes years of dedication and I know was a special day for her when she got her citizenship, I was 8 years old at the courthouse with her, and about 50 other people as well getting theirs.   It cheapens the meaning and spirit of getting an American citizenship if it is taken for granted so easily.   Why go through the Immigration and Naturalization process to begin with ?  People forget it's also the NATURALIZATION part of the Immigration and Naturalization process that which makes you an American, not just the fact that you physically moved to this country, ie. immigrating.

Seriously. NO AMNESTY. PERIOD!

With that said, there should also be an orderly guest worker program because we need good quality hard working people who would eventually like to become US citizens, but know who they are, ID them and ONLY them, biometric (finger print and eye scan) IDs work.  However, gang members, criminals and terrorists, these are the people we need to keep out of our society - Is that not the sole reason for having an Immigration and Naturalization process to begin with? We want quality people from all over the world, who accept our way of life as freedom loving Americans and respect our laws and traditions, NOT those who come to force their way of life onto us, who come to harm us, or come for other nefarious reasons. 

I'm all for LEGAL Immigration and Naturalization, but the enforcement of the Immigration and Naturalization policies to keep Immigration at a rational level, and not letting it get to the point of now having essentially an army of 12million+ people who should not be here in this country and they could be doing who knows what, and know-body knows because we have no idea of who they really are(no ID's), then the source of that failure to NOT let those people into the country in the first place is squarely with the Immigration Enforcement people and the Obama Administration.  The Bush Administration didn't do much better, and practically everyone since Regan's' blanket amnesty of illegal immigrants in the 1980's has failed - to the point of dereliction of duty - to enforce our Immigration and Naturalization policies.
