No. 15 – July 13, 2009

THE FAR-LEFT AND THE FAR-RIGHT – HERE WE GO AGAIN

There is little difference between these two groups when it comes to personalities and pure acts of utter stupidity.

Over the last five days I have been bombarded with e-mails from the Evangelical Right, gleefully referring to some poll that took place a few days ago, saying that 75% of Americans now think that there should be some form of control on abortion.

Their excitement is palpable – and their idiocy is still firmly intact.

As did the Far-Left readers right after Obama snookered them into believing everything he said – and promptly broke every major campaign promise thus far – now the Evangelical Right is doing the same thing – AGAIN. At least, many of the Liberals are starting to wake up.

But not so, the Evangelical Element.

Many have written to say, “See I told you so.”

“We should stand on our Family Values and not give in to abortion or gay marriage.”

All I can say is, some people never learn.

Yes, the Republicans have a tremendous opportunity to gain a very large number of seats in 2010.

But if they start their hypocritical jargon of Family Values – it will backfire big time. Exactly like it did in 2004, 2006 and 2008.

 

DON’T THESE PEOPLE EVER WAKE UP?

Apparently not. I will say it again. The GOP should expunge (that means throw out, for all of you still stuck in Bellingham) the whole lot of them – and start afresh with New Republicans.

Let’s think logically for one minute. If a person is Pro-Life it stands to reason that the opposite is Anti-Life.

I do not know anybody who is Anti-Life.

I have, and always will be, Pro-Life. But Pro-Life is a misnomer from the get-go.

The argument is PRO-CHOICE or ANTI-CHOICE.

That is where we should be directing out attention.

The Woman and the man responsible should have the CHOICE to make their own decision as to what to do – Abortion or no abortion.

But the Evangelical Right doesn’t see it that way. They want GOVERNMENT to step in and tell the people what they should do.

But please remember, if a precedent is set, whereby the GOVERNMENT can tell a woman not to have an abortion – then that same government can, at its own discretion, tell a woman TO have an abortion.

And all things being equal – and no sex discrimination – the GOVERNMENT could tell a man if he should, or should not be castrated.

What is good for the goose is good or the gander.

Am I getting through here?

As a New Republican I stand for LESS GOVERNMENT intervention, not more as the Evangelical Element wants.

And they want the same GOVERNMENT INTERVENTION with regard to homosexuals.

When in Hell’s name are these people going to wake up?

In reality, the Evangelicals want a Theocracy – not a Republic, nor a Democracy.

I see no difference between the Evangelical bent and the Radical Muslim Theocracy – only in the “Religious” beliefs they aspire to.

I do NOT want anything to do with a Theocracy.

Heaven forbid if the GOVERNMENT and the CHURCH get together on this. Can you imagine what a mess that would be?

 

SO WHAT SHOULD WE DO?

If you don’t believe in abortion – don’t wave it like a banner. State your belief – and move on.

If you think that marriage should only be between a man and a woman, state your belief – and move on.

But to continually pontificate on it is NOT the way to win votes.

I have always been against abortion – but in favor of freedom of choice.

I find it odd how men are always trying to regulate what women do with their bodies.

The Evangelical Right and the Radical Muslims have more in common than they want to admit.

 

FORGET IT

Forget the Abortion and Homosexual “social issues” and move directly on to the following:

1. National Defense.

2. Securing our Borders with the National Guard.

3. Establishing a National Healthcare System designed to be completely free of choice. Why not just base it on the type of healthcare that the Congress already enjoys? Seems pretty simple to me.

4. Abolish the Federal Office of Education – and give the running of schools back to the states – and back to private schools, alternative schools and home schooling. And simply, back to the parents.

5. Balance the budget – by cutting spending.

6. Establish some form of Flat/Fair Tax and ABOLISH THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE FOR GOOD.

7. Make a concerted effort to harness sun power in five years. We can do it – if we really want to. In the meantime, convert all cars to Natural Gas within 18 months. This can be done RIGHT NOW. All city busses in Sacramento are Clean Air Natural Gas Powered. It CAN be done.

These are just a few of the things that I was talking about during my campaign in 2004 – but the Evangelical Element was bound and determined to only talk about Abortion and Gay Rights.

Remember, the Log Cabin Republicans (a very conservative – but openly homosexual group) was denied recognition to join the GOP because the Evangelicals were running the show. If they would have accepted the Log Cabin Republicans – Dino Rossi would be Governor of Washington today. He only lost by about 500 votes. There are thousands of Log Cabin Republicans.

Well, thanks to the Evangelicals, they ran the GOP right into the ground.

I say it is time the Evangelical Element be run out of the Republican Party.

If this is not done – and done pronto – the GOP is in for another humiliating defeat in 2010.

New Republicans – Unite!

 

YOU AND YOUR PREDICTIONS

I took a lot of heat about some of my predictions from a number of readers. A few even challenged me saying, “Since you think you know it all, why don’t you make a list of predictions so we can keep count and see how good you REALLY are.

Well, that is fine by me, so here is a LIST that you can keep track of and see for yourself what happens:

1. In my opinion Goldman Sachs is the closest thing we have to a legal criminal organization – the United States Congress not withstanding.

Goldman Sachs will, therefore, make a huge profit this quarter. Remember, they helped to put their main competitor, Lehman Brothers, out of business. They received TARP money. Their shares were $78 just a few short months ago. They are now over $150 per share. Henry Paulson, Tim Geithner, Ben Bernanke and a whole slew of others worked for Goldman Sachs. They are all now tied to the most powerful sub-arm of the United States Government – the FED. And Goldman Sachs donated MILLIONS of dollars to the Obama campaign.

2. Interest Rates will be 7.50% by the end of 2009.

3. Housing will lose another 20% across the board before it bottoms out – if we are lucky.

4. Unemployment will hit 15% – again, if we are lucky.

5. Cap and Trade will be defeated.

6. Sonia Sotomayor will be confirmed.

7. Gasoline will be around $3.10 by 2009 – again, if we are lucky.

8. Israel will strike Iran’s Nuclear facilities this year: Once the US pulls out of Iraq, it will collapse; America will be defeated in Afghanistan. Alexander the Great could not beat them, the Russians could not beat them, and America will not beat them. Has anybody actually even looked at the country’s territory and terrain? It is simply absurd to think that we have the resources to bring this country to its knees. It will be a disaster for both countries if America keeps up with this insane policy.

9. A Second Stimulus (actually this is #3) will not be approved.

10. The GOP will score big if it finally wakes up and returns to its Conservative Roots – and gets rid of the divisive and destructive Evangelical Element.

 

LINCOLN AND GOLDWATER

If you think I am being too harsh on the Evangelicals, I only ask you to read your history to see how they treated one of our greatest presidents, Abraham Lincoln. They were ruthless in their slanderous attacks on him, throughout his presidency.

And as for Goldwater, they badgered one of our greatest Conservative Thinkers all the time he was alive – simply because he did not have a problem with homosexuals in the military.

So, as you can see from a historical perspective, the Evangelicals have been a thorn in the side of the Republicans for a long, long time.

They were so bad that the Democrats finally let them leave their party – and they crawled over to the Republicans, with promises of victory if they were to be let into the tent.

Well, the Republicans let them in – and now we have Obama.

You be the judge.

 

SAYONARA – FOR THREE MONTHS

Akiko and I are going to Japan for three months. I am doing research on my third book and need to investigate the total transportation system in Japan – and see how it can be implemented here in America.

If you have never ridden a train or bus in Japan, you are missing a real treat. Their system is the most punctual, clean and efficient transportation layout in the world – bar none.

Compared to our AMTRAK, it makes our country’s transportation grid look Third World – and believe me, I have been to, lived in, and worked in the Third World.

I hope to have my next book to the printer before the election of 2010. I have been inundated by past supporters to put together a primer with NEW ideas and concepts for up and coming candidates to draw upon for their campaigns.

A number of people have been actually challenging me to get back into politics and “make a difference.”

Who knows, maybe I will.

But for now, Sayonara and,
