To my blog yesterday.

I made reference to the fact that the media is in the tank for the democratic party. I know that sounds like a conspiracy theory, but it is a documented fact. I have a very very good article here that proves my point. I will just quote the whole thing. The link to where I got it will be in green.

Orson Scott Card – best-selling author, political writer, speaker, and self-described Democrat, takes on the Democratic Party and mainstream media in an open letter making it’s rounds on the internet.

An open letter to the local daily paper — almost every local daily paper in America:

His comments:

I remember reading All the President’s Men and thinking: That’s journalism. You do what it takes to get the truth and you lay it before the public, because the public has a right to know.

This housing crisis didn’t come out of nowhere. It was not a vague emanation of the evil Bush administration.

It was a direct result of the political decision, back in the late 1990s, to loosen the rules of lending so that home loans would be more accessible to poor people. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were authorized to approve risky loans.

What is a risky loan? It’s a loan that the recipient is likely not to be able to repay.

The goal of this rule change was to help the poor — which especially would help members of minority groups. But how does it help these people to give them a loan that they can’t repay? They get into a house, yes, but when they can’t make the payments, they lose the house — along with their credit rating.

They end up worse off than before.

This was completely foreseeable and in fact many people did foresee it. One political party, in Congress and in the executive branch, tried repeatedly to tighten up the rules. The other party blocked every such attempt and tried to loosen them.

Furthermore, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae were making political contributions to the very members of Congress who were allowing them to make irresponsible loans. (Though why quasi-federal agencies were allowed to do so baffles me. It’s as if the Pentagon were allowed to contribute to the political campaigns of Congressmen who support increasing their budget.)

Isn’t there a story here? Doesn’t journalism require that you who produce our daily paper tell the truth about who brought us to a position where the only way to keep confidence in our economy was a $700 billion bailout? Aren’t you supposed to follow the money and see which politicians were benefiting personally from the deregulation of mortgage lending?

I have no doubt that if these facts had pointed to the Republican Party or to John McCain as the guilty parties, you would be treating it as a vast scandal. “Housing-gate,” no doubt. Or “Fannie-gate.”

Instead, it was Senator Christopher Dodd and Congressman Barney Frank, both Democrats, who denied that there were any problems, who refused Bush administration requests to set up a regulatory agency to watch over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and who were still pushing for these agencies to go even further in promoting sub-prime mortgage loans almost up to the minute they failed.

As Thomas Sowell points out in a TownHall.com essay entitled “Do Facts Matter?” ( http://snipurl.com/457townhall_com] ): “Alan Greenspan warned them four years ago. So did the Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers to the President. So did Bush’s Secretary of the Treasury.”

These are facts. This financial crisis was completely preventable. The party that blocked any attempt to prevent it was … the Democratic Party. The party that tried to prevent it was … the Republican Party.

Yet when Nancy Pelosi accused the Bush administration and Republican deregulation of causing the crisis, you in the press did not hold her to account for her lie. Instead, you criticized Republicans who took offense at this lie and refused to vote for the bailout!

What? It’s not the liar, but the victims of the lie who are to blame?

Now let’s follow the money … right to the presidential candidate who is the number-two recipient of campaign contributions from Fannie Mae.

And after Freddie Raines, the CEO of Fannie Mae who made $90 million while running it into the ground, was fired for his incompetence, one presidential candidate’s campaign actually consulted him for advice on housing.

If that presidential candidate had been John McCain, you would have called it a major scandal and we would be getting stories in your paper every day about how incompetent and corrupt he was.

But instead, that candidate was Barack Obama, and so you have buried this story, and when the McCain campaign dared to call Raines an “adviser” to the Obama campaign — because that campaign had sought his advice — you actually let Obama’s people get away with accusing McCain of lying, merely because Raines wasn’t listed as an official adviser to the Obama campaign.

You would never tolerate such weasely nit-picking from a Republican.

If you who produce our local daily paper actually had any principles, you would be pounding this story, because the prosperity of all Americans was put at risk by the foolish, short-sighted, politically selfish, and possibly corrupt actions of leading Democrats, including Obama.

If you who produce our local daily paper had any personal honor, you would find it unbearable to let the American people believe that somehow Republicans were to blame for this crisis.

There are precedents. Even though President Bush and his administration never said that Iraq sponsored or was linked to 9/11, you could not stand the fact that Americans had that misapprehension — so you pounded us with the fact that there was no such link. (Along the way, you created the false impression that Bush had lied to them and said that there was a connection.)

If you had any principles, then surely right now, when the American people are set to blame President Bush and John McCain for a crisis they tried to prevent, and are actually shifting to approve of Barack Obama because of a crisis he helped cause, you would be laboring at least as hard to correct that false impression.

Your job, as journalists, is to tell the truth. That’s what you claim you do, when you accept people’s money to buy or subscribe to your paper.

But right now, you are consenting to or actively promoting a big fat lie — that the housing crisis should somehow be blamed on Bush, McCain, and the Republicans. You have trained the American people to blame everything bad — even bad weather — on Bush, and they are responding as you have taught them to.

If you had any personal honor, each reporter and editor would be insisting on telling the truth — even if it hurts the election chances of your favorite candidate.

Because that’s what honorable people do. Honest people tell the truth even when they don’t like the probable consequences. That’s what honesty means . That’s how trust is earned.

Barack Obama is just another politician, and not a very wise one. He has revealed his ignorance and naivete time after time — and you have swept it under the rug, treated it as nothing.

Meanwhile, you have participated in the borking of Sarah Palin, reporting savage attacks on her for the pregnancy of her unmarried daughter — while you ignored the story of John Edwards’s own adultery for many months.

So I ask you now: Do you have any standards at all? Do you even know what honesty means?

Is getting people to vote for Barack Obama so important that you will throw away everything that journalism is supposed to stand for?

You might want to remember the way the National Organization of Women threw away their integrity by supporting Bill Clinton despite his well-known pattern of sexual exploitation of powerless women. Who listens to NOW anymore? We know they stand for nothing; they have no principles.

That’s where you are right now.

It’s not too late. You know that if the situation were reversed, and the truth would damage McCain and help Obama, you would be moving heaven and earth to get the true story out there.

If you want to redeem your honor, you will swallow hard and make a list of all the stories you would print if it were McCain who had been getting money from Fannie Mae, McCain whose campaign had consulted with its discredited former CEO, McCain who had voted against tightening its lending practices.

Then you will print them, even though every one of those true stories will point the finger of blame at the reckless Democratic Party, which put our nation’s prosperity at risk so they could feel good about helping the poor, and lay a fair share of the blame at Obama’s door.

You will also tell the truth about John McCain: that he tried, as a Senator, to do what it took to prevent this crisis. You will tell the truth about President Bush: that his administration tried more than once to get Congress to regulate lending in a responsible way.

This was a Congress-caused crisis, beginning during the Clinton administration, with Democrats leading the way into the crisis and blocking every effort to get out of it in a timely fashion.

If you at our local daily newspaper continue to let Americans believe — and vote as if — President Bush and the Republicans caused the crisis, then you are joining in that lie.

If you do not tell the truth about the Democrats — including Barack Obama — and do so with the same energy you would use if the miscreants were Republicans — then you are not journalists by any standard.

You’re just the public relations machine of the Democratic Party, and it’s time you were all fired and real journalists brought in, so that we can actually have a news paper in our city.

whats the most expensive commodity in the usa?

This is really scary to me. Its something I knew was out there but I had no idea that it was anywhere near me. I believe that the most expensive commodity in the USA is ignorance. The ignorance of the population of this nation has cost us so much it is not possible to innumerate. When I say cost not only do I mean money, but also our values our freedom, and our way of life.
I am going to tell you a story of something that happened today. Its a sad sad story, and I think it passes up ignorance and leaves it in the dust. I would call it something more like willful delusion. This type of attitude could cost our country a great deal when one considers what is at stake and the great multitudes of voters plagued with this intellectual gaff. This problem will be perpetual in this nation; because the very people that posses it are the same people that consider them selves to be the elite, the educated, the informed, and the nuanced. The only ones who have a right to lead.
My story...
I was at work today and a person sent me a text. "Are you still a Sarah Palin supporter?"
I replied "you betcha"
Then later I asked "why"
The response came back to me "Weird. You realize the only experience she has is two years as a governor of a town big as vernal. She's completely under qualified to lead the country. It's seems really bizarre to me."
This comment, to me, is what seemed "bizarre." I thought that perhaps this person was just subject to the massive spending in tv adds of the Obama camp, and his secondary branch the news and entertainment media. So I called my friend and had a chat with them. They informed me they were busy so I was not able to get much in. I stated that Sarah was a mayor for 6 years then a governor of a whole state for 2 years. My friend said yeah well thats still only like 8000 people. She said that the only things Sarah talked about for her experience was that she was a hockey mom. I tried to make things a little more clear to him/her for about 30 more seconds and they said they had to go.
When they hung up the phone it hit me that this person may not have known the difference between a Governor and a Mayor. That a governor was the executive of a whole state and all the people of that state, with a much larger budget and a much much larger responsibility than a mayor. A Mayor is the executive of a town or a city.
My friend said they got the info while they were awake late at night and couldn't sleep so decided to do some political study. I assume that meant the internet. So i did a little search myself tonight when I got home from work. Googled Sarah Palin, and the first thing that came up was Wiki's page one her. (Not like it was to hard to find) Where you find that she was a member of the city council from 1992 to 1996 and mayor from 1996 to 2002, she chaired the alaska oil and gas conservation commission from 2003 to 2004. She was governor in 2006 to present.
If there is a question of experience, how come you don't hear the Obama camp. talking about it. Why? because that would open the door for questions about Obamas experience too then wouldn't it. The news keeps howling about it but not Barack or Joe. Things would come out like Obama has only showed up for 142 days of this term as senator. (His only term by the way) Six years in the senate and that all her could muster. Or how about his votes as present, instead of for or against, 30% of the time. I thought being president of the USA required you to make a stand and stick with it. How does it sound to have a president that will vote, "yeah I'm here" 30% of the time.
What about Sarah's state that she governed? Its a small state right? Well land wise it is the largest state by far. Not to mention the only state that shares a boarder with two foreign countries. One of which is kinda hostile to the US right now. That means shared airspace and waterways, trade and all the rest. What about the population of her state. Ranked at 47 with 683,478 souls is fairly small, I agree. Delaware, it only has 864,764 people and ranked 45th. Why is that relevant? That is the state that Joe Biden hails from. A whopping 180,00 more people.
I posted awhile ago that experience was not that big a deal for me. I am a brand new equipment operator and I am beating the crap out of people with 25 years on me. Or like they like to put it "I've been doing this longer than you have been alive!" Like it matters.
One more thing, Biden admits that Obama looks weak and is going to invite an international crisis upon election.
Here is some that he said.
"Mark my words. It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking... Watch, we’re gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy. . And he’s gonna have to make some really tough — I don’t know what the decision’s gonna be, but I promise you it will occur...I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate. And he’s gonna need help. And the kind of help he’s gonna need is, he’s gonna need you - not financially to help him - we’re gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him. Because it’s not gonna be apparent initially, it’s not gonna be apparent that we’re right."

Like I said it is going to really cost the US a lot when we have to start paying for the ignorance of the people that vote for the ticket of the left. The first and third most liberal people in the senate. I hope my friend will read this and know that there is much more to the story than they think. Try to educate yourself a little better. My same friend admitted to me a while ago that most people he/she knows are going to vote for Barack because he is black and they want to see a black president. And none of the people he/she know are black, that I know of any way. (which is just as raciest in my opinion.
My friend and all his/her friends have the ability to cancel out the votes of all of us that take the time to KNOW the issues.
I know it was long but thanks for reading. Link to this blog if you agree or not. Lets get the word out. Only 14 or 15 more days.

shady and shifty a little freaky deaky!

No i am not one to buy into conspiracy theories, but i figure if Hillary Clinton said it, it must be true. Snopes confirms it and the mccain palan campain are talking about it. Also very smart people think that dreams from my father, barac obama's first book, was ghost written by this man. Suggesting that there is a little more than obama says there is.

I know that many of u will not take the time to read about this, but i have and really believe it. I will just suggest that you read wiki's story about barac obaba and bill ayers relationship. To me i don't know how you live just down the street, kick off your political career, and serve together in differing comities, you can say that you don't know someone. really barac was in bills home to announce he intentions as a public servant. There was not many people there so it was an intimate setting and they raised money there. Please click the like above for more info.

Next there is significant proof that Bill Ayers, admitted domestic terrorist (who wishes he could have done more), could have been the ghost writer for the thing that really has made barac his fortune. Please read this and see what i mean.

Again the links to the pages i have mentioned can easily be reached by clicking the green text in this post.

to pack or not to pack...

Not to long ago I went to a class and sent in the paperwork for a concealed weapons permit. (not going to tell you weather i got it or not.) Well that kinda scared my wife that I would (or could) have a loaded hand gun on me at all times. At school, at a dinner, or her moms house.
When I told my sister, Jamie, about my ambition she acted kinda funny then asked me if i "think some ones going to shoot you or out to get you or something?" I said no but there is a chance something might happen, and its better to be prepared than not. And she slowly consented.
Well last night in vernal utah a young man was shot many times standing out in front of a little coffee stand called shivers and jitters. The cops got the guy, and the kid is alive i believe, but still. I haven't had protection on me to this point, but just to think that out side in the middle of town and right off of highway 40 someone was shot multiple times make me wonder where and when else it could happen.
So Jamie yes I think that some one could and would shoot me. I don't even have to know him or her, and it could happen in any town. And I bet that man would not have thought about shooting if he was sure the victim had a gun on him at that moment.
