OLD JARHEAD 11/22/2012 CONSERVATIVE POLITICAL DIGEST


Old Jarhead's Political SitRep for November 23, 2012
Robert A. Hall

Thankful on Thanksgiving
Despite the dire problems facing our Republic and the world, we have much to be thankful for. I’m thankful for having been born in the post-WWII United States. Because of our healthcare system, modern technology and farming developed by the capitalist countries, and political and economic freedom, including property rights—all those things hated by right-thinking Progressives—at 66 I’ve lived longer and better than 99% of the people who have ever lived. I remember that any time I think I should feel sorry for myself because I have pulmonary fibrosis. I owe this country far more than the service I’ve been able to render could ever repay.

I’m very thankful for my family, especially my wife, Bonnie and my granddaughter, Britnye. I’m thankful for my parents who, if not always perfect, gave me values, a work ethic and a love of country. They served me well.

I’m thankful that the United States Marines saw fit to let me wear the Eagle, Globe and Anchor, the privilege of a lifetime, even if I stood in the rear ranks. I’m thankful for my Drill Instructors at Parris Island 48 years ago. Because they gave me the priceless gift of self-discipline—even if sometimes imperfect—I’ve had a wonderful life. I try to live by the USMC core values of Honor, Courage and Commitment.

THANK UNIONS FOR THE DEMISE OF TWINKIES AND WONDER BREAD!


Dear Conservatives,

Wasteful work rules. Strikes. A hate-the-boss mentality.

These are the effects of forced unionism that destroy private-sector jobs -- and all were weapons used by union militants against Hostess.


Last week I appeared on "Real News" on The Blaze TV to talk about how union militancy led to the recent decision by Hostess to close up shop.

As I explain in the interview, Twinkies and Wonder Bread -- two of the company's top-selling products -- couldn't even be delivered on the same truck, and the union bosses refused to back down from their demands in the crippling strike.

Natural Supplements ~ An Alternative Course for Depression:

With Thanksgiving, Christmas, and the holidays upon us, many people increase their intake of refined sugar and other carbohydrates to their detriment.  Most sugar in the U.S. is GMO (genetically modified organisms), so it is especially BAD for your brain chemistry and causes depression!  But in many cases, the depression is NOT seasonal and is more pervasive and may continue beyond a short duration, even if you clean up your diet and stop eating JUNK.  If you are among those who suffer from various forms of depression, here is an alternative route for your consideration:

First, STOP DRINKING POLLUTED WATER w/ Fluoride ~ a TOXIC Poison that screws up your metabolism & brain chemistry!  

Second,  drink  one PROTEIN shake (High Glutathione & all Amino Acids helps depression) per day from RAW UNPASTEURIZED ORGANIC GRASS-FED WHEY (NO SOY EVER!) in blender with raw milk or juice, frozen berries and raw unpasteurized honey:

GMOs Plus Obamacare: Your Ticket To Slavery

Nov 21, 2012 11:07 am

At this late date, there are still people who don’t see the consequences of Obamacare. They cling to the notion that it’s simply a wonderful system that will allow more people to get vital medical care. That’s all they see or want to see. They agree that medical treatment has an alarming toxic track record. [...]

HAS OBAMA "LOST IT?"


Submitted by: Donald Hank

It is not only Barack. The Christians in Iraq started leaving in droves under severe persecution right after we succeeded in defeating Saddam Hussein. Our intervention in the Middle East has been a net negative. Reagan was smart enough to pull out right after the bombing of the barracks in Lebanon. His successors have not shown that kind of wisdom.

As if "Benghazi-gate" was not sufficiently horrific, in a cruel twist of fate, American-backed Islamic insurgents in Syria are now thought to be using their CIA-supplied weaponry to kill Christians.

Video footage of a November first attack posted on YouTube shows members of the "Free Syrian Army" executing 28 men that were initially claimed in French Press reports to be members of the Syrian army. However, the President of the US-based, Christian relief group, the Religious Freedom Coalition, William Murray, claims to have positively identified at least two of the victims as belonging to the Syrian counterpart of his relief ministry, a claim supported by an independent human rights activist. Murray says those executed did not have weapons, and were not members of the military. As for the identities of those in the firing squad, Murray says they fly the black flag of jihad and Al Qaeda.

AARP = SOCIALISM WHILE AMAC = CONSERVATISM

AMAC vs. AARP - Battling for the Hearts and Minds of Seniors
  If you haven't chosen AMAC over AARP yet, here's why you should.

During the first debate, President Obama touted the support of AARP for ObamaCare several times, clearly tying them together.

Further proof that they were working in concert can be found in recently released emails between the White House and AARP operatives.  As the emails show, AARP threw their tremendous power behind the legislation despite the fact they were getting calls overwhelmingly against it.
In fact, on September 20, 2012, Kimberly A. Strassel of the Wall Street Journal wrote:
"Thanks to just-released emails from the House Energy and Commerce Committee, we now know that AARP worked through 2009-2010 as an extension of a Democratic White House, toiling daily to pass a health bill that slashes $716 billion from Medicare, strips seniors of choice, and sets the stage for rationing.  We know that despite AARP's awareness that its seniors overwhelmingly opposed the bill, the nonpartisan organization' chose to serve the president's agenda.

NEW LAYOFFS PENDING, ACTUAL LAYOFFS, BUSINESS BANKRUPTCIES ALL AT OBAMA'S FEET


Submitted by: Donald Hank


The disintegration of an economy and a society can take two courses. One course is like rust. It is slow and barely perceptible. The other is a sudden collapse. The first course, if left untended, eventually  turns into the second.
The US economy is now rusting away. Arguably it has been for decades. For anyone interested in looking, the signs are there. They will soon become unavoidable for even the most disinterested of our citizens.
Dan Amoss correctly described what is happening as a result of Washington’s overbearing involvement in the economy:
All government-directed economic activity grows at the expense of the private sector. And the election suggests that government coercion will drive even more U.S. economic activity in the future. This is a shame, because freely adjusting prices, competition, and innovation elevate living standards. Mandates, price controls, and subsidies — coercive actions — depress living standards. Quality falls. Shortages develop and persist.
Mr. Amoss is correct but does not forcefully convey the reality of a dying economy. These effects are beginning to appear.
Many businessmen hung on, hoping for a change in the madness that passes for economic leadership and policy. These hopes were dashed with the re-election of the ideologue driving the madness. Obama won the electoral college, but not the confidence of business. They are just beginning to cast their votes and it does not bode well for the future. Here is a partial list of the business reactions to the outcome of the election:

LIBERALS DUMB ON PURPOSE? ESPECIALLY IN MATH!

WHY CAN’T LIBERALS UNDERSTAND FIFTH-GRADE MATH? (ToThePoint News)


Written by Richard Rahn
Tuesday, 20 November 2012

Dennis Van Roekel, president of the largest teachers union, the National Education Association, failed fifth-grade math last week. The question he failed is: 

If X (government spending) is growing faster than A (government tax revenue) plus B (new revenue from higher tax rates on ‘the rich'), when will A + B = X?

President Obama met with leaders of left-leaning organizations, including Mr. Van Roekel, to discuss the ‘fiscal cliff' last Tuesday (11/13). After the meeting, Mr. Van Roekel appeared on Neil Cavuto's Fox News show to discuss the budget deficit. Mr. Van Roekel told Mr. Cavuto that he had recommended taxing the top 2 percent more to deal with the problem. 

BUY NOTHING MADE BY UNION LABOR IF POSSIBLE

Many folks are going to scream in protest about what I am about to say and call me unkind names, but at the moment we still have some limited freedom to speak our minds and being a Vietnam Veteran I grew accustomed to such treatment at an early age.
About fifteen years ago my wife was having major renovations done on our yard and  she hired an old-world Vietnamese craftsman to do the job; his name is Dan.  Dan subcontracted the iron work and electrical work to other tradesmen.  One day when I came home everyone was there and at work. Dan introduced me to his two subcontractors and we began a casual conversation - spurred no doubt by the fact that I wear a “Vietnam Veteran” ball cap virtually all the time. To make a long story short, it turned out that the two subcontractors and I had been in the same places at the same time during the Vietnam war; in the same rice paddies as it were. And as things sometimes go, one of them had been with the NVA (North Vietnamese Army). Talk about a pregnant moment. And as I have always done when meeting a veteran of that war, I extended my hand and said: Welcome Home.

MUTH'S TRUTHS 11/21/2012

FIXING THE NEVADA GOP
 
Yes, I could make Nevada GOP relevant in Nevada overnight.  Yes, it could be done without costing the party a dime.  Yes, it involves making one simple change in the party’s operations. 
 
No, I’m not telling everybody about it for free.
 
Here’s the thing: A lot of high-priced political svengalis in Nevada were paid a sh*tload of money this last election cycle to blow golden opportunities to knock out the worst president since Jimmy Carter, to make Harry Reid the MINORITY Leader in the U.S. Senate and to gain the majority in the Nevada State Senate.
 
And part of their “genius strategery” was to send lame political mailers to Nevada voters, not from the Nevada Republican Party, but from the Colorado and Idaho Republican parties.  BRILLIANT!
 
Look, if the party keeps doing what it’s always done, we’ll keep getting what we just got: Screwed.

RedState Briefing 11/21/2012


Morning Briefing
For November 21, 2012



Folks, have a wonderful and happy Thanksgiving. I'm taking the rest of the week off and will be back in your inbox Monday morning.

1. I Believe and Am Thankful
Marco Rubio is getting beaten up by the press for not decisively and convincingly saying he thinks the world is billions of years old. The press gave Barack Obama a pass for largely the same answer. This issue has become the new litmus test in the media for conservative politicians. Believing what was believed to be literally true for a few thousand years is now nutty. Christian homeschool kids, often taught that the world is not as old as some believe and who routinely kick the rear ends of the ivy prep kids in academics, are considered stupid.

Truth be told, I think the world is billions of years old, but I have no doubt God created it. . . .
