Worst Economic Crisis Since the Great Depression...hmmm

First, let me admit and agree with the fact that the economy is in rough shape. Money is sitting still, business is drying up, and the end is no where in sight. It is a tough time with the wars, tough economy, and the devout division within our country. It is bad.

And the Messiah...the Chosen One...the One we have been waiting for...is all too happy to continually remind us how bad the economy is, with all the blame placed squarely on the shoulders of George W. Bush. 100% of the blame, and then some, is served in a heaping pile on the front steps of the White House, until Tuesday at noon, when it will be moved to Crawford, TX. No blame, whatsoever, on the people in charge of the House and Senate, who took power in 2006. Since 2006, when the Democrats won both Houses of Congress, we have seen the hugest economic downturn since the Great Depression. Yet, none of them have any blame to eat, just George W. Bush...and the Republicans...and Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity. Not one Democrat has taken blame for anything. Well, except, Rod Blagojevic, but that is an entirely different, more fishy story.

But, I digress.

In huge economic strife, in a time where Obama promised more fiscal responsibility and to bring CHANGE to Washington, DC, a place he has worked off and on for 4 years with no such change being hinted at, Barack (Now you can call me) Hussein Obama is orchestrating an inauguration of such overindulgence, the whole situation is sickening.

For weeks leading up to and following the January 20, 2005, inauguration of President Bush for his second term, the mass media railed against Bush, Republicans, conservatives, Fox News, and anyone else they could possibly blame for the expense. In 2005, Bush's second inauguration hit around the $40-$50 million price tag. On the eve of Bush's second inauguration, "ABC’s Web site pleaded for tips of “any military funerals for Iraq war casualties scheduled for Thursday, Jan. 20.” Sure enough, then-ABC anchor Peter Jennings got his wish to report how “just about the time the president was speaking, there was a funeral for a young Marine reservist: 21-year-old Matthew Holloway was killed in Iraq last week by a roadside bomb.” (Thanks to Rich Noyes of NewsBusters.org and his blog dated January 15, 2009 "Media Reality Check: The Media’s Inauguration Day Double Standards")

There is an undoubted, no-longer-secret double standard with the media's handling of Liberals versus Conservatives. And, sadly, Conservatives are being drowned out because so many "moderate Conservatives" are being used as liberal puppets on TV and radio.

With the power of the media and no one willing to stand up to Obama's ridiculous cult following, Obama is going to get off without a hitch the most expensive, extravagant, lavish inauguration in history.

Bush's second swearing cost was railed against for $40-$50 million. No one will rail against the $150 million being spent on Obama. No one will step in and ask why Bush had to declare a state of emergency to make sure the event could happen as planned. Federal Funds are being used under this state of emergency declaration, and event NEVER BEFORE SEEN.

And no one says a word.

No one on the left bats an eye.

No one on in the media raises and eyebrow.

Conservatives...we must get off our laurels and fix our country!

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.
