They have forgotten they work for us…

So Michelle Obama is going on a little trip to China with her mom and daughters. It’s a “non-political” trip and it’s focus is on education. No big deal right… why care?
Well we should care because the Press has been told they are not allowed to come. That’s right! The Press ALWAYS goes!
The Press is our link -our access to what the people we hired are doing. They are spending the tax payers dime on this -so we ARE footing the bill….but we are not allowed to know what exactly they are doing because no press is allowed!
This is crazy pants! Ya ya ya…they want privacy…what’s the big deal? Well if you are in public office-there’s no privacy and if you don’t want people in your business, don’t take a trip to China on our dime! We have EVERY right to know how our hard earned money is being spent! Don’t even get me started on the amount of vacations these people have been on…I got an idea…how about holding off on one of your trips and donating that money to the poor? Or shoot let’s give some of that cash to the Veterans who are being denied retirement funding after they have put their lives on the line for this country!
On top of all this…If our elected officials begin to shut the American people out ….you are looking at a Dictatorship ruling…yep I said it! You begin to treat the people you are supposed to be serving like they are unworthy to know what you are up to, or what you are doing or having a say of any kind….that’s not freedom people….
This is not good.

Religious freedom….not so much…

 
 
In case you haven’t heard a cadet at the United Air Force Academy is being court martialed for having a Bible verse written on the white board outside his dorm room! No JOKE!
Ya….I know nuts right! I mean this is absurd! If our religious freedoms are no longer protected and we can’t express our faith…than this country is straight up doooomed!
Below is a posting I wanted to share and I couldn’t agree more!
 
Robert Blaha’s Face Book Page:
 
“Below is my modified version of Susan’s (my wife) recent “Letter to the Editor” published in the Colorado Springs Gazette:
Our family has lived in Colorado for 20 years and we can look from our back yard and see the Air Force Academy. It has always been a source of pride to see the symbol of American freedom and liberty from our home. I honor and respect the brave men and women who represent us so well as Cadets. But after reading the numerous articles and blogs about the Cadet who posted a Bible verse on his personal whiteboard, having to erase it because it offended other Cadets…outrage is my only response. Whether you are Baptist, Presbyterian, Congregationalist, Catholic, Non- Denominational or even of another Faith … you need to be concerned. When or first Amendment can be so easily, casually and consistently be dismissed…. Beware !

I am appalled by the biased anti-Christian atmosphere that permeates the Academy. I’m tired of hearing about leaders at the Academy bowing down and cowering to the ant-Christian chorus that sing the toneless refrain. I’m tired of reading about Cadets whining to their superiors about how they are so offended by Christians….Really.
Our right to live our Christian faith out in public is protected and under siege…. Period.
I say those weak and offended by those who exercise our most basic rights, should grow up and Leaders who put their political finger in the wind should seriously evaluate their understanding of The Constitution of the United States of America. If WE stand by and remain silent then we are in the grasp of a nefarious and terrible future….. regardless the coming topics….”

Do something….ANYTHING!

You know what astounds me….I mean what really amazes me…the American people’s total lack of concern about being lied to. Straight up LIED to.
We were first told “if ya like your plan you can keep it, ” we were also promised that our health insurance premiums (through the Affordable Care Act) would Decrease, when in fact, just yesterday Katherine Sebelius admitted that they will in fact -increase in the next year. INCREASE!
I don’t care which way you vote (as long as you know what the heck and who the heck you are voting for) But, it truly does concern me that people are like -“ya the President lied to us…ok…so what??”

LYING. This is NOT okay people!

You know WHY this matters….because we are saying it’s okay by NOT responding! We are saying it’s ok by not speaking up.
When we stay silent we are giving this injustice our own stamp of approval.

You wanna know why are politicians are a bunch of hypocritical liars and thugs in suits….cause We have allowed it!
We have gotten too busy with our little lives and in the whirlwind of it all, the integrity of our nation has been lost.
Hey I get it, life is crazy-it’s busy!
But in the midst of the present we MUST look ahead to the future.

Will our kids think we cared? What proof do we have to show them that we fought for a free America? We fought for justice? What evidence will we be able to show our children that we did not stay silent when we were lied to, we did not approve! America is screaming for help, as her Constitution is being torn from her body. She is begging for someone to stand up and stop this abuse!
We must stand up, we must speak up!
This is America we are talking about people. We are losing her. She is slipping right through our fingers and we are doing nothing….

What can you do? You’re crazy busy… you barely have time to take a shower, and put your feet up…before you hear ‘momma’ or ‘daddy’….I get it-I do!

So here is what I ask….here is what YOU CAN do.

1) Don’t stay silent. Being lied to…is not acceptable-period. When a political figure lies…no matter the party-call-them-out! Blog about it, write about it, tell your neighbor, tell your local paper…
2) Vote. Not just in your general election but in your PRIMARY, elections are won and they are lost in the primaries. If we do not send our strongest, fiercest, most qualified to Washington they will be nibbled to bits by the Parana that abide there.
3) Go to your caucuses -it’s a meeting of your political party-cannidates are selected and policies are decided on YOUR behalf-just show up!

I still have hope that all is not lost, if we the people….begin to say enough and demand for justice!

Me and my Bossy Self :)

Ughhh…well the celebrities are at it again-Beyonce has started campaigning against something completely senseless -banning the word ‘Bossy.’

I personally think it’s pretty ‘Bossy’ to try to ban the word ‘Bossy,’ but that’s just me….
I am seriously sooooo over people telling me what I should and should not say!
I don’t care if it’s considered ‘rude’ or ‘insensitive’ -if you were raised right -you know what to say….and even if you were not-do you need some bizzilionaire that has NO clue how us common folk live telling you how speak!???

There are sooooooooo  MANY other things that we can fight against and ‘Bossy’ isn’t one of them!
Here’s a thought…
Let’s fight poverty
Let’s fight Aids
Let’s fight bullies
Let’s fight Cancer
Let’s fight mental illness
Let’s fight eating disorders
Let’s fight against rape
Let’s fight suicide
Let’ fight against human sex trafficking
Let’s fight domestic violence

geeeez…I could go on-

 
It truly astounds me that time and money are even being spent on something like this when there are so many other critical issues at stake….but whatever…
And if this blog appears to be ‘bossy’ so be it…..mmmmkay! 
 

 

This is why elections are being lost

 
Well, if you are wondering why we have stopped winning elections it’s because of things like this:
 
 
I just read a report that Rand Paul leads in the CPAC Pole…which I love because I have been a huge supporter of Paul for a while now. Ever since he filibustered on the whole Drones invading our personal privacies issue (which I blogged about a while back)- I have thought wow this guy might actually care about protecting the liberties of the American People.
I am so sick of politicians… talking… talking… talking… talking…..Paul is actually getting shit done!
 
So this is why I am annoyed….
 
According to the Drudge Report…people are complaining that Paul is too short and they don’t like his curly hair…
 
Yep…and that’s why I seriously feel like slapping your average voter-Republicans included!!!  
 
Are you kidding me…like are you for real???
 
This is why we are losing elections this is why our country is seriously in the crapper!
 
Hair texture….I am at a loss for words…..too short???
 
I don’t care for a second what his hair is like or how tall or short the guy is! Are we now dating potential candidates??
This is asinine!
 
This is like when you were a kid and asked your parent what color of jersey we should be cheering for when watching a sporting event!?!!!
Only sad part is we are NOT kids…this is serious people! This is the future welfare of our COUNTRY!
 
What I want is someone who DEFENDS the constitution! Goes to bat for the American people, believes that America is the greatest nation on earth and doesn’t apologize for it! Refuses to bankrupt America because they care too damn much about our future generations, defends life, understands the role of government and does not overstep it’s boundaries!
 
Too short….ughhhh…please!
 
The pretty boys can head to Hollywood…I want a fighter!
