AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I almost ran out side and screamed.... like a banshee..... I'm not kidding.

All because of what is going on and reading these articles:

"If you’re complaining about the price of gas and you’re only getting 8 miles a gallon, you know,” Obama said laughingly. “You might want to think about a trade-in.” -Herald News

"Obama threatened to veto the bill even before it passed on a 247-181, mostly party-line vote. Military troops would not receive their full paychecks," -Reno Gazette Journal 


"President Obama and the First Family are planning to visit the area this weekend in what the White House described Wednesday as a "long-planned family trip to Colonial Williamsburg."-Daily Press


First he's tells us to suck it up when it comes to gas prices.  Buddy I have a car that gets okay gas mileage and I'm freaking out about the price of gas!! Can I just say I have no idea why all these envirofreaks want us to be like Europe, to bike and take mass transit everywhere.  Well they are idiots! we are a hundred times bigger than the little European countries.  We are spread out, especially here in the West.  There's no mass transit to my kids school or to the grocery store and there's no way in Hell I could ride my bike to the grocery store.  I would love to not be so dependent on oil.  I'm all for electric vehicles. In fact 10 yrs ago when we bought our first SUV I tried to talk my husband into getting a natural gas engine put in (he was not going for it). But I've got a growing family, we are not all going to fit in a Prius. AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Then he's going to threaten to veto a bill to help keep the government going another week and he says because they need to make a decision.  ummmm maybe he and the democratic held house and senate should have passed that budget last year when they were supposed to!  And if the government does shut down our troops won't be paid?  I'm sure he and the rest of them sitting up there are going to see their paychecks, in full. These people are so out of touch with the real world.  AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!


Lastly he's going to take ANOTHER vacation?? what the hellllllllllllll!!  This family travels more than flight attendants.  They just got back from Brazil.  Our country is in crisis!  There's this whole Libya thing. And he needs another vacation? I'd love a vacation, but I can't because 1- my husband is deployed and 2- i can't afford one. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Now I realize there seem to be a lot of hysterics and screaming going on in this post.  but really I'm so mad and have no one to vent to.  All my friends these days seem to lean left and will probably vote for Obama again.  I'm so frustrated.  


This is a nightmare.

i dont get the gold rush

I'm not really getting this whole gold rush going on.  Everyone is saying it's good to have gold in your portfolio.  I don't have a portfolio, I barely have full bank account.  Maybe one day when I have more money & a portfolio I will have gold in it.  but if I really think about the falling dollar or inflation I really don't think having gold in my portfolio or in my wallet is going to be able to buy me much of anything.  Really when what my family needs is food or toilet paper, I'm not going to trade my backyard chicken's eggs for an ounce of gold, I'm going to want toilet paper.  I think instead of gold I would want to invest in land.  Land that I can grow food on, hunt food on & land with trees, cause you know people are going to need wood.  People I'm going to invest in land because if things were to get bad, land is going to be worth more than it's weight in gold.

Ps talking about the end of things, I like my dad's theory:  he says that before the world ends things are going to be awesome.  I'm talking a chicken in every pot, a land rover in every garage.  Things are going to be so good people are going to forget God.  And if you look at history- ie the Bible and BofM it's so true!  things are going awesome, people are rich, nobody wants for anything, nobody remembers who blessed them.  & I'll tell you what- I won't forget!

healthcare summit or another photo op for professor obama

I say the latter.
did you watch?  what did you think?
I thought the President sounded condescending and (as a lot of others are saying) borrrrrring!
ugh it was so hard not to change the channel when he interrupted & started in on his lecturing.
although sometimes my self controlled waned & I did change it, that's when I missed this:

"Let me make this point, John, because we're not campaigning anymore, the election's over."

I'm not the biggest fan of John McCain but he is a much better person than I am to just laugh off that extremely rude & condescending comment.  I just find it unbelievable, that our President would behave the way he did & in front of the American people.  No wonder he prefers back room deals.

oh goodie more incompetent government run health care

Just think this could be us too!

GITMO- maybe not that bad

Maybe GITMO isn't as bad as the mainstream media and our "friends" up in DC are telling us. I know what you're thinking- "but they wouldn't lie to us!?"

Well I guess we could go ask the terrorist detainees how they feel about moving from their tropical beach front property to a chilly maximum security prison in Illinois. Put away your frequent flyer miles, lucky for us we don't have to, their lawyers have done it already. And the terrorist detainee's answers? - "ahhh no-thankyou!"

In THIS article from Newsweek (via Hot Air) the terrorist detainees lawyer said (the last few paragraphs), " many of [my] clients, while they clearly want to go home, are at least being held under Geneva Convention conditions in Guantánamo. the plans call for them to be thrown into the equivalent of a "supermax" security prison under near-lockdown conditions. As far as our clients are concerned, it's probably preferable for them to remain at Guantánamo," Ha! Oh the irony.

Also in the aforementioned article, Obama is unfailing in using the same lame attempt to label GITMO a terrible place,
"Make no mistake: we will close Guantánamo prison, which has damaged our national-security interests and become a tremendous recruiting tool for Al Qaeda," That's funny I'm pretty sure Obama's own lax attitude and feeble attempts at 'talking & listening' have probably done more damage to our national-security interests, and the only tremendous recruiting tool for Al Qaeda is their own self serving hatred. Also changing venues won't change attitudes. Does Obama really think that once the terrorist detainees are up north Al Qaeda will smile, nod and say "hey maybe America isn't that bad after all"- I think not.

Along with those in charge over in Illinois our dear leader is trying to reassure the residents of Illinois that moving the terrorist detainees to their prison won't make them a target for terrorism. I don't buy it and neither should the people of Illinois.

Speaking of terrorists being treated as civilians; THIS article on how much it's going to cost for just the security in New York for the pre-trial & trial of the terrorists who helped orchestrate 9-11, will raise more than your eye-brows. (spoiler alert: over 400 million!) best comment (come on you've got to read the comments it's the comic relief) by partynot- "John Wayne... a rope is reusable"

Here's a must see, something the MsM would never show you.

The softer or real side of GITMO. This is the image you should have in your head every time you hear about it instead of the horror show the MsM & our dear leader are selling you. Courtesy of Steven Crowder:

dragging feet on Afghanistan *update*

photo here with description

Not too long ago ABC news announced that Obama had finally decided to heed the advice of Gen. McChrystal after months and months of non decision and send a surge of troops into Afghanistan. But sorry ABC & apparently CBS were wrong- they need a new source; National Security Adviser James Jones dismissed reports that the administration has reached a decision to send thousands of additional troops to Afghanistan. here

Apparently Pres. Obama needs to see more options. I don't get it. He signs Porkulus without reading it, wants to spend us into oblivion without blinking an eye but when it comes to our troops he sits on his arse.

I love this commentary by Ed Morrissey of Hot Air: It’s time to make a decision, Mr. President, one which you’ve had three months to make. If Obama is just now getting around to hearing back on five options, then he either needs to fire his staff for their lack of preparation or admit that this has been a low priority for him while Americans fight and die on the front lines. One does not win wars by waiting three months to decide on whether to properly resource the only real option for victory.

This thing is affecting my home directly. The husbands units deployment to Afghanistan has been pushed back 3 times. Even now they don't have a secure date (but really that's the military for you) The husband wants to go- needs to go, and everything in our life has been put on hold because of it. Please Mr. President make up your MIND!! I'm tired of waiting around. To tell you the truth I don't care what he decides whether to send 40 thousand or pull them out all together. The reason's we're over there are always sketchy but that opens a whole new can of worms. He just needs to make the decision so that our troops don't think we've forgotten or don't care about them.
If you would like to show your love for our troops in Afghanistan & have some killer knitting skills or crochet jump over to my other blog to see how.

*update* the feet dragging continues. Obama has rejected all the options given to him in his recent White House war council meeting. "It's important to fully examine not just how we're going to get folks in but how we're going to get folks out," Gibbs said. Good grief. If only he would consider everything he does & has done during his presidency this carefully, we might not be so far down the crapper like we are now.

"Mr. Gorbachev tear down this wall!" *update*

Today is the 20 anniversary of the Berlin Wall coming down. And listening to this speech given by Ronald Reagan reminds what a great president he was.

Twenty years ago the greatest symbol of repression, communism and the Cold War was torn down by the German people.

There are some great photos of the celebration over Here

But what I feel is missing from those pictures is our current President. Because of an upcoming trip to Asia "White House spokesman Robert Gibbs confirmed earlier this week scheduling conflicts and preparation for his impending 10-day trip to Asia have instead caused Obama to stay in Washington." here Instead they have sent Sec of State Hilary Clinton.

What a joke. He'll also be spending Veterans Day in Asia. This man can't be bothered. If it's not about him it's not worth noting.

Good question and answer brought up by Ed Morrisey on Hot Air: "Well, where’s the Vice President? Should he not stand in for Obama on this auspicious occasion to help celebrate the victory over tyranny in a war waged over several decades? Apparently not. Joe Biden will attend a fundraiser in Detroit rather than celebrate the fall of the Berlin Wall."

HERE's a great article about the 4 probable reasons why Obama stayed away

*update* Obama made time to make a video address to the German people. How nice he could take time out of his busy day to do this. Lucky for us he was able to make this a little bit about him, why else would he do it?
