Free Speech for EVERYONE!!!! American or not...

Wow. The graciousness and subservient self-abuse of our country never seems to end. Despite what we do, who we help, what sacrifices we make as a nation, it is still not enough for many foreign countries, as well as many of those on the left in this country.

So, following in the footsteps of Bill Clinton, who spread open the doors and gates of the White House and America to welcome in terrorist leader Yassir Arafat, Columbia University opens their doors and exposes impressionable college students to the vile diatribe of a terrorist.

The media, to be PC, calls him a President, to suggest he is a leader of a country that was chosen. (Much like the Iraqis "elected" Sadam.) However, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is far from an elected president of a sovereign nation. He is a terrorist…he leads terrorists…he funds and arms terrorists…and he is not a president. He is holding millions of good people hostage in Iran. If they speak against the Ahmadinejad regime, those tend to be the final words ever heard from that person. Websites and newspapers are constantly being put under or feel pressure from Ahmadinejad's censorship.

Yet, somehow, this terrorist…this evil, vile human being…gets center stage at a prestigious university. He gets the golden, guided tour through a city still feeling the effects of what people like him did six years ago. He gets protection and fine accommodations at the expense of the American taxpayer.

He is supposedly protected and given this opportunity courtesy of the First Amendment. He has the right to free speech and the right to be heard…

Uh…NO!

I don't know how to say it any other way. He is a terrorist. He is a killer. He is a power-hungry, fear-instilling, censoring dictator who is a major threat to world security and safety.

Ahmadinejad is not, nor ever will be, a US Citizen. Well, I take that back. If his current ride of liberal respect and adulation continues, I could see Hillary Clinton as president…ok, give me a second, even hypothetically that thought gives me chills and makes me fight the urge to vomit…back to point…I could see President Clinton II granting Ahmadinejad an Honorary Citizenship and a gift basket full of signed pardons for him to pass out to his friends. I mean, that's what Bill did in his final days…granted unheard of gifts and pardons to convicted terrorists. So, Hillary already has her friend in mind…Ahmadinejad.

However, until the dark, immoral, big-government nightmare of Big Brother Clinton part II comes to fruition, we have some time for sanity left. Ahmadinejad is not a citizen, thus not protected by our US Constitution. He, like the illegal immigrants who drain out economy and social services system, are NOT PROTECTED by the US Constitution.

Ahmadinejad does not have First, Second, Third, Fourth, or Fifth…or any other number…amendment rights. I think foreign diplomats should be given courtesies and be treated with respect without persecution or censorship. However, Ahmadinejad is not a diplomat. He is a terrorist dictator glad-handing with the corrupt UN (who is just about as liberally left as MoveOn.org), and some liberals who sympathize with Ahmadinejad's cause at Columbia want to use him to once again show how poorly they think of their own country.

Ahmadinejad does not deserve to have any protection under the Constitution. Period. Especially since he is funding and arming the terrorists who are killing and maiming the very troops who are fighting to protect the meaning of that document.

The only stage that Ahmadinejad deserves to be on is one with a trap door, with him standing upon said trapdoor with his hands tied, a blindfold covering his eyes, and a noose around his skinny little neck…open the trap door.

Ok, I guess killing the guy is over the top. He is just a leader trying to make the world a better place for him to kill innocent and gain more power. All he has ever done is hold a country hostage, censor his people, seek to develop nuclear weapons to sell or use, pledge to wipe out Israel, and send weapons and funding to the people who are killing our troops in harm's way.

I guess that's forgivable.

HEALTH CARE FOR EVERYONE!

It works SO well in Canada and Europe....let's bring it here.

What is it?

Tax-funded health care for EVERYONE!!!

For the 47 million uninsured (20 million of which are the illegal criminals who broke the law to cross our borders into our country), Hillary wants to start America's path to Socialism with healthcare for everyone.

Health Coverage for EVERYONE!!!

Sounds great in a 5 second sound bite on the news and reads great in a blurb in the paper...but how can this happen?

Well, the government has plenty of money, and can get even more from the rich. Let's tax the rich into oblivion and redistribute the wealth. High taxes and the passing on of hard-earned dollars is just the thing to encourage job growth, higher wages, and entrepreneurship in our country.

I can see it now. Even more people fighting to climb the ladder of success so they can give 50-60-70% of their earnings to the less fortunate. And since they are in such a giving mood, with all the taxes going to Washington, DC, they will continue the trend of spending and hire more people for higher wages. They're rich. They can afford it.

Actually, the health care system, as it exists in this country today, is the best in the world. We do not need some do-nothing senator from a do-nothing Democratic congress (WAIT!!! They did rename some post offices, so I guess they did do something with their major win in 2006.) mucking up this system with government funding, government regulation, and government involvement on the day-to-day operations of health care.

The price tag for her plan, as she states, is $110 billion. Why, that's not bad...until the people who are working overtime to pay for their own insurance plans drops their plans in favor of the free stuff.

Then, of course, when the time comes that a life saving operation is needed, we won't have time or the intestinal fortitude to ask for citizenship documents. So, anyone from anywhere with a boo boo or a sickness can come on our dime...well, its not our dime, it's the rich people's dime, right?

Then, suddenly, the system won't work so good. SuperHillary will swoop in with government programs and regulations to help fix the problem (but no one other than Fox News will have the spine to call out the fact that it was a problem created by Hillary.) Now, all the sick and dying will look to the Big-Brother Clinton regime to take care of everything. People will be so sick and so desperate for care, they won't care that their choice is being taken away. They will only get to see certain doctors on certain days. People with colds and flues will stand in line like Russians in a bread line.

If you want to see government health care in action, look at the VA Medical Centers and Walter Reed Hospital. While there are some fine, talented, caring people that work in these places, they are few and far between. In general, it is not the cream of the crop that work there. In addition, the level of care is based on the bottom line and not on the needs of the patient. My dad is a Vietnam Vet who can only afford the VA Medical Center, and I have seen first hand how the level of care and treatment and improvement of the quality of life is sorely lacking. Like I said, they do some good things. However, like the men peeled from their beds with bed sores and gangrene at Walter Reed, there will be a low level of care as compared to the pseudo-free-market system we have now.

Like with the school systems across America, consolidation will be the key to fiscal responsibility. Instead of living 5 miles from a hospital, people will have to be bussed 2-3 hours sometimes to find a place of wellness.

The inner cities will be left behind. The minority population throughout the country will see a drastic decline in the decades following the installation of the Hillary Health Care plan.

Think I am being racist? Ask yourself this...courtesy of Democrat-developed bills and spending cuts, the government has already screwed up the Education system. Carry that further...do the schools and regions with high black or Hispanic populations get the best teachers and equipment? No. You think when the government takes over health care, the blacks and Hispanics will have the best doctors and life-saving equipment?

So, ok, let's stop Hillary. But Barack HUSSEIN Obama and "Breck Girl" Edwards claim to have had similar plans and accuse Hillary of stealing their health care proposals.

So, basically, if the blue states win, we will all lose.

Remembering 9/11 Six Years Later...


Everyone is posting stuff about remembering the victims and the families and everything, but, really, how many of us REALLY remember what 9-11 means?
If you watch the news, or, let's face it, it's really not news but actually nationally broadcast editorials posing as news, you see that they have forgotten what 9-11 means. If you look to many in Congress, they have forgotten what happened six years ago.
On the news, and I use the term loosely, you see constant focus on the loss of life in Iraq and the constant references to "another Vietnam," or "being stuck in a Civil War." The news uses the 9-11 anniversary as a theme to point fingers and create blame for the world's troubles. They exaggerrate the bad and totally down-play the positive. There is always a slant to the news now...the angle is always there to find a way to prove George W. Bush and the repulican congress failed. They say that Bin Laden is still alive. They say that al Qeada is still organizing and is "stronger than ever."
Judging by the tape released several days ago, Bin Laden looks like a beaten man. The whiny bully who has lost his iron-fist control of the neighborhood. His eyes looked tired...like those of a man who has been on the run for SIX YEARS. He is in such a dissheveled state, they had to import some grecian formula to try to make him look respectable...but dying your beard will only cover up the truth...Bin Laden is weak, tired, and has lost his strength physically and as a leader. Not to mention, his planned attack at Rammstein in Germany was foiled just days before his little home video came out.
If al Qeada is so much stronger, its because Iran is sending supplies into Iraq. So, with the power of Iran and Syria, and quite possibly Saudia Arabia and Russia, al Qeada has more resources, but they are not stronger. They are a threat, but more so to our troops and our allies in the field of battle, and less likely to hit us at home again.
And don't give me this bull about "Iraq didn't attack us." The people who we are fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq are all cut from the same cloth with the same ideas. They want Americans to die. They want to kill you. They want to kill me. They hate every freedom we have. They have an impossible hate for us. They hate America almost as much as democrats do.
Speaking of which, if you think the media does not have an anti-Bush bias, ask yourself this. How many times did your news focus on the fact that absolutely ZERO attacks have occurred on US soil since 9-11? Clinton allowed the 1993 WTC bombing to go unpunished, the attacks on US Embassies in Africa to go without punishment, and then the 2000 USS Cole attack went unanswered. Three attacks in 8 years for Clinton...One in 7 years for Bush (By the way, the attacks on 9-11 were planned during Clinton's lazy years, so, technically, 9-11 was a Clinton mishap, much like the inherited recession Bush dealt with in his first year of office.)
So, please continue to remember the victims...the families of victims...remember that there are still 3,000 empty chairs at the dinner table because the Clinton administration allowed Bin Laden to build strength for 8 years. Just think...what if Clinton had gone after al Qeada in 1993...who might still be alive today...then ask, are we ready for another no-action Clinton administration?

Four Decades of Military Service....Still no Respect from the Democrats???


GENERAL DAVID PETRAEUS




General David Petraeus has spent the better part of the last four decades serving our nation. He has drastically impacted the military and the way our wars are fought.


General Petraeus wrote the book, literally, on counter-insurgency in Iraq. He has been in charge of training the Iraqi security forces. He has been in Iraq for nearly 4 years out of the last five.


He nearly died from a bullet to the chest while wearing the US uniform. He is the son of a man who served in the military. He graduated the US Military Academy. He has a Ph.D. from Princeton University. His credentials are impeccable and impressive.



Yet, to believe this man's report and testimony to Congress, we have to "suspend disbelief." Presidential hopeful and leading Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, as well as most of her party, feel that his report on the progress in Iraq and the surge was inacurate and a White House-influenced political piece of propaganda.


Look at the Democrats' biggest financial backer, MoveOn.Org. They have publicly said they have bought and paid for the Democratic party. They get an uneal discount on a full page ad, which ran the day of General Petraeus' testimony to Congress (thus being printed before the General had given a word of testimony to anyone.) They accused the General of betraying our country by giving his report. His honesty, integrity, and 4 decades of service to our country was smeared by a group of anti-American kooks...kooks who control the thoughts, words, and deeds of all the democratic presidential candidates (Don't believe me??? Name one of the front-runners that has spoken out against the slanderous insult of an ad...just one.)

It is a disgrace and a joke that Petraeus was smeared the way he was by MoveOn.org, made worse by the fact that the New York Times, a paper of record in our country, gave them a discounted rate to smear the General. The worst part is, there are 4 people one the Democratic side who have a legit chance to become Commander in Cheif of the military, and the General's next boss, and they all refuse to decry the ad. They refuse to say that it was uncalled for and wrong. They even try to agree with the ad without using the exact same verbage. Hillary says that to accept what General Petraeus testified to, we have to "suspend our disbelief." Meaning, we have to ignore the fact he is lying to accept it. And she wants to lead our military?


I just believe a man who wears four stars and has served as long as he has deserves a little more respect. I guess this shows their true colors...all this time they tried to say "We're against the war but we support the troops." Well, when a bona fide American hero and true leader gives them bad news for their political ambitions, they appearantly are willing to make exceptions to their support of the troops.


Below is the dispicible ad that MoveOn.Org placed in the New York Times on September 10, 2007.


About Me...And This Blog Site...

My name is David A. Ebert, the oldest of two siblings produced by my parents, Leah and David G. Ebert. We are all Republicans, but I take it a toke or two...well, closer to 10 tokes...further than my parents,

I am very much a Right Wing Conservative. I am a Reagan Conservative. I believe Americans, in general, are smarter than elected officials in Washington, DC. We should be more in charge than the Government.

We, as individuals and families, should have more responsibility over our own, hard-earned money and not send more and more and more taxes to the out-of-touch politicians. I believe the government is there to serve us, and not us to serve them.

I believe in America's greatness and that, overall, we are the most generous, forgiving, intelligent, and genuinely decent country in the world. I also believe that we are the most powerful nation in the history of the world, but do not use that power to hold over the collective heads of other nations.

I believe that low taxes, intelligent spending of those tax revenues, strong initiatives on defense and education, and small government influence on the day-to-day lives of Americans are some of the most important ideals related to how the US should be operated.I believe in the freedoms granted by the US Constitution. I believe that judges should uphold and interpret the laws as written in the US Constitution, and not refer to any foreign legislation to make their historic decisions.

I believe the First Amendment, as well as the entire Bill of Rights, are the most important laws this world has ever seen.

I believe abortion is WRONG. I believe that homosexuality is WRONG. I believe that allowing anyone to publicly debate the possibility of lowering the age of consent, especially for young boys to consent to older men, is a tragedy of morality. I believe that organizations like NAMBLA should be publicly shunned and not given a platform to spew their harmful and dangerous rhetoric.

I believe there is a sad lacking in the ability of our nation to appreciate and accept self responsibility. We, as a nation, blame daddy, racism, sexism, classism, mommy, the mean teacher, the mean little league coach, the loud mouthed uncle, the financial status of the neighborhood in which we grew up in, and a million and one other reasons why we do not succeed. How often do we, as a nation, take the blame for our own mistakes? How often do you hear someone accept responsibility for their own mistakes? How often?

I am conservative. I am worried about the future of the country and the planet, especially if O-BOMB-A or Billary Clinton make it to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. I will start posting my fears, my hopes, my ideas as they all relate to news and politics. I hope to open some eyes and change some opinions with my writings. Most of all, I hope you will read my words and be inspired to find the truth...and not rely on Chris Matthews or Keith Olberman or Katie Couric or Matt Lauer for your opinions. I hope you will break the mold and do something unreal...unexpected...do something that O-BOMB-A and Billary are afraid of you doing...

THINK FOR YOURSELF.
