Of course Lil’ Timmy wants closer ties with China, his Obamessiah told him to say that. Let’s face it folks, the Chinese already OWN us, and the Obama administration is scrambling for money, and it doesn’t matter how much further that money runs this nation down the communist, Marxist or socialist toilet.

Official: Cuba to resume talks with U.S.

Don’t we already have more than enough people to feed? Don’t we already have more than enough communists in this nation? Do we really need to worry about relations with Cuba and importing even MORE of Cuba’s problems? Cuba is the only one that will benefit from improved relations with the USA, other than cigars and sugar, what has Cuba got that we need? And we don’t really need the cigars…

And the GOP boos?? America should be booing! I don’t care if they want to have a night out, that’s great, keeps the marriage on an even keel, but don’t do it on OUR dime. I guess the date was successful all the way around though, all of America got screwed, but we didn’t get kissed! :?

Muslims want tangible change on Mideast from Obama

CAIRO, Egypt (AP) - Respect for Islam, a prescription for Palestinian statehood and assurances of a speedy U.S. pullout from Iraq - that’s what Muslims from Morocco to Malaysia want to hear from President Barack Obama this week when he addresses them from this Arab capital.

And if that’s what the Obamites want, that’s what the Obamites will have. Even if it means the destruction of Israel and the USA in the process, anything it takes to give Obamas people what they want. Remember the Yul Brenner line from The Ten Commandments, “So it is written, so let it be done…”

Oklahoma druggist arrested for killing holdup man

Oklahoma druggist arrested for killing holdup man

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Confronted by two holdup men, pharmacist Jerome Ersland pulled a gun, shot one of them in the head and chased the other away. Then, in a scene recorded by the drugstore’s security camera, he went behind the counter, got another gun, and pumped five more bullets into the wounded teenager as he lay on the floor.

Now Ersland has been charged with first-degree murder in a case that has stirred a furious debate over vigilante justice and self-defense and turned the pharmacist into something of a folk hero.

Ersland, 57, is free on $100,000 bail, courtesy of an anonymous donor. He has won praise from the pharmacy’s owner, received an outpouring of cards, letters and checks from supporters, and become the darling of conservative talk radio.

“His adrenaline was going. You’re just thinking of survival,” said John Paul Hernandez, 60, a retired Defense Department employee who grew up in the neighborhood. “All it was is defending your employee, business and livelihood. If I was in that position and that was me, I probably would have done the same thing.”

I am probably going to anger a few folks with this post, some will agree, some won’t, but that’s the price you pay when you have a blog and you’re not afraid to go after the most controversial of topics.

All we have to go on in this particular case is the information presented by the AP, based on that information, and working under the assumption that their information is correct, I have got to say, I feel that this guy is as guilty of murder as was Joe Horn. The grand jury in Pasadena, TX didn’t bring charges against Horn, much to my surprise, and depending upon the attitudes of the folks in Oklahoma, Jerome Ersland may end up being acquitted as well.

To shoot in self defense is not an issue for me. If someone comes into my home uninvited, in the middle of the night, or day for that matter, and is intent on doing me or my family harm, it’s an absolute given, I will punch their ticket to HELL and have absolutely NO feelings of guilt in doing so. For Ersland to have shot this wannabe bad boy in the head, and put him down, was an adequate and very acceptable response, and for that I am in full support of Ersland. To go back and get another gun, and shoot the bad boy 5 more times? Well, that is where you have to draw the line. Unless the guy was continuing to present a clear and present danger to Ersland and the stores occupants, this was way over the line of self defense!

Don Spencer, a 49-year-old National Rifle Association member who lives in the small town of Meridian, 40 miles north of Oklahoma City, said the pharmacist did the right thing: “You shoot more than enough to make sure the threat has been removed.”

Don, you are exactly what is wrong with the NRA, you give gun owners a bad name. Yes, Ersland was right in his initial reaction, that is an absolute in MY opinion. But to go back, change guns and to then shoot the guy 5 more times? That is cold blooded, premeditated MURDER, I don’t care HOW you cut it!

District Attorney David Prater said Ersland was justified in shooting 16-year-old Antwun Parker once in the head, but not in firing the additional shots into his belly. The prosecutor said the teenager was unconscious, unarmed, lying on his back and posing no threat when Ersland fired what the medical examiner said were the fatal shots.

The guy was shot, he presented, as I understand it, no THREAT at that particular point in time, that is where LAW ENFORCEMENT comes into play. Let the police do their job and let the guy spend some time in McAlester. Now, depending upon the whims and moods of a jury, and the skill of the lawyers, Ersland may well be the one spending time in McAlester.

Anthony Douglas, president of the Oklahoma chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, called it an “execution-style murder” and praised the district attorney for bringing charges. Ersland is white; the two suspects were black.

I won’t begin to speculate as to what was going through Ersland’s head in regards to race, and any possible act of racial hatred, but this is one time that I am having to stand in agreement with the observation made by Anthony Douglas of the NAACP, what started out as a legitimate act of self defense turned into, in my opinion, an “execution-style murder”, no matter what color the robbers were. And personally speaking, the color of the robbers or the shooter have no bearing on this issue. It is my feeling that the MSM is using the skin color of the participants in an attempt to further inflame the sensitivities of weak minded individuals that are easily baited into throwing the *race card*…

American capitalism gone with a whimper

American capitalism gone with a whimper

It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American decent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed, against the back drop of a passive, hapless sheeple, excuse me dear reader, I meant people.

True, the situation has been well prepared on and off for the past century, especially the past twenty years. The initial testing grounds was conducted upon our Holy Russia and a bloody test it was. But we Russians would not just roll over and give up our freedoms and our souls, no matter how much money Wall Street poured into the fists of the Marxists.

Those lessons were taken and used to properly prepare the American populace for the surrender of their freedoms and souls, to the whims of their elites and betters.

First, the population was dumbed down through a politicized and substandard education system based on pop culture, rather then the classics. Americans know more about their favorite TV dramas then the drama in DC that directly affects their lives. They care more for their “right” to choke down a McDonalds burger or a BurgerKing burger than for their constitutional rights. Then they turn around and lecture us about our rights and about our “democracy”. Pride blind the foolish.

They say you can find a story anywhere you look. And the truth surfaces in the damnedest places. This piece of reality is from Pravda, yeah, that Pravda, the Russian news source. And the truth of their story scares the living hell out of me.

There have been a lot of people try to tell us, over the last 50 some odd years that I am aware of, this government of ours is going down the sewer. Well, Barack Hussein Obama is the catalyst that is going to trigger the pull of the flush handle that sends the USA right down the tubes.

Read the story. Read it carefully. Read it and then look around you at the world we’re in right now. Look at the financial and political morass this nation is in. We are in the abyss my friends, and the Russians called it all the way. Nikita Khrushchev said, “We will bury you!”, he was speaking his mind. He later went on to say, “I once said, ‘We will bury you,’ and I got into trouble with it. Of course we will not bury you with a shovel. Your own working class will bury you,” SOURCE: We will bury you

His words are coming to fruition. Their plan has been played to perfection, and Barack Hussein Obama is driving the last nails into the coffin.

Welcome to the United Marxist States of America. I have been trying to write this commentary all evening, I just couldn’t do it, I went from intense anger to intense sadness. Even now, I don’t have the words to fully express what I feel. The original story could, under different circumstances, be written off as communist propaganda. Regretfully, this time it looks like a page torn from our own headlines.

Our nation is on the verge of falling, Obama and Company are telling us it’s ALL going to be OK, at least 50% of the people of this nation are falling for the words of Obama, hook, line and sinker, and the Russians that wrote this script are laughing their asses off!
