Recently at the UN Conference in New York there were four notable speeches. One was by Libyan President Qaddafi, a babbling idiot. Another by Iranian President Ahmadinejab, an evil madman. Yet another by American President Obama, a clueless neophyte. And then there was a powerful speech by Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu, a man of courage, intelligent and resolve.
Israel, a small dot on the map of the middle east which wants nothing more than to be left in peace, is the target of mad men all over the area who wish and plan to destroy this small nation. President Netanyahu states emphatically that on his watch Israel will not be bullied or destroyed without a major fight. He does not apologize for Israel's successes in science, humanitarian activities, or literature. Instead, he praises his small county as the only republic in the middle east.
Now turn the page.
President Obama trips all over himself blaming America for every ill in the world when he should be extolling our virtues. He grovels at the feet of dictators when he should be serving notice that a butt kicking is on the way if you "tread on us." Yet he is more concerned about our image than our safety. Netanyahu, on the other hand is strong and resolute. His speech at the UN was powerful and spot on.
So, why can't we have a man like this? The simple answer: we were lazy last year. Let's not be lazy anymore, the price is much too high.
Israel has the man we have the mouse.

FISH, FARMERS, AND FOOLS
The Fish: A 2 inch fish that has no intrinsic value other than to excite and give justification to wacko environmentalist. More on the wackos later.
The Farmers: Those individualists who are the backbone of the food supply in our nation and around the world who are hard working, industrious, and resourceful and, they are the patriots of the land. They are as much as possible self-sufficient and not on the government dole. Dare I say the "salt of the earth."
The Fools: These are the ones who put every possible avenue of silliness you can imagine before common sense and the welfare of mankind. Whale are more important than aborted babies. The snail darter was more important than a hydroelectric dam, and of course the delta smelt, a 2 inch fish, is more important than the welfare of San Joanquin Valley farmers and Americans in general.
And now the story:
If the story is true, and I have every reason to believe it is, the water supply has been cut off from a large portion of land in the San Joanquin Valley of California. The reason: a small, insignificant fish known commonly as the delta smelt is in jeopardy due to the pumping of water from irrigation canals near the effected area of the valley. The small two inch fish is reportedly killed when caught in the intake nozzles of the pumps. Unfortunate for the fish, but life happens, or in this case death.
The problem is not the fish but the environmentalists. As a former nutty environmentalist I know the drill; forget people and their needs and concentrate on bugs, fish and polar bears. Now I don't have anything against animals for, some are fun to play with, (my dog), others are important to use for their products (my chickens' eggs), and other are good to eat. However, animals should never be placed in front of the welfare of humans. If we had to sacrifice every polar bear in the regions of the melting icebergs for the life of one child, I would gladly say, "au revoir."
So, I say to the weak politicians who won't stand up to the lying environmentalists, get a backbone or we'll hand you a "pink slip."
Incidentally, government agencies such as the EPA, IRS, etc. do not have the Constitutional authority to make laws whether it involves the environment or otherwise.

Mobsters and Right Wing Radicals in DC
Not knowing what to expect I settled into my seat on the chartered bus, struck up a conversation with my seatmate and headed for Washington DC. It was Friday September 11 and it was "game on."
Forty-six of my fellow patriots and I were heading into uncharted waters with little or no idea what to expect when we joined a few others in DC to bring our grievances to a "fish dead" Congress.
Estimates range from 60,000 to 2,000,000 participates in the "DC Tea Party" (for the uninformed, the Tea Party is where the AstroTurfers, yahoos, rednecks, Nazis [Nancy Pelosi's description of us], trouble making ignoramuses, and mobster radicals were gathering to exercise our First Amendment right to free speech, PEACEFULLY assembly, and redress of grievances), however, I'll go on record with 1.500,000. For those who doubt the number, please note I was there.
My group of freedom loving radicals arrived at Freedom Plaza about 8:30am on September 12 where a large crowd was building. Faster than anyone could imagine people were coming from every nook and cranny. The street were filled to the point where the police were frantic to get the parade rolling. Traffic was backed up all over town and gridlock was the order of the day.
Finally, the parade started and the masses in true Constitutional form started for the seat of corruption, the US Capital Building.
The day continued with more people, great speeches, and warm fellowship. Conservatives showed their true colors with courtesy, and politeness, and a special helping hand to the handicapped and elderly. No death panel supporters anywhere to be found. There was also no ME, ME, ME, but there was plenty of sharing of water, food, seats or anything that anyone might need. And unlike the Obama inauguration the grounds were left clean. In fact, I have a video of a patriot picking up accidentally discarded papers of an unknown person and properly disposing of them.
The question might be asked. What was different about this protest from others that take place in Washington DC? The answer is simple. Conservatives are by and large gentle, hard working, self sufficient, God fearing people who want nothing from the government but for them to get out of the way of our "unalienable rights," which are those rights "endowed by our Creator," as well as those confirmed in our Constitution.
We are seeing a ground swell of a much needed revolution. A revolution not of blood but of votes. Good God fearing Americans are growing increasingly tired of government, whether city, county, state, or federal wasting our (YES our) money on useless projects, on companies that are nearly as corrupt as the government itself, on pork, illegal aliens and deadbeats who are too lazy to work.
So the call is; continue to rise up Americans, march on City Hall, the County Courthouse, the State Assembly, and the US Congress and throw those who are bums out.
So, I say to big government,"we'll churn our own butter if you will stop stealing our milk."
The Constitution was written and ratified to govern the government not to govern "We the People."
