What the Hell were You People Thinking??

I'm sorry to have to end my 4 month hiatus from posting on my blog in such a manner, but after the tragic and ridiculous re-election of the worst President in our history, I just have to ask those of you who voted for this clown one simple question:

What the hell were you people thinking??

Let's get the obvious out of the way first and foremost: NObama was re-elected for the same reason he was elected. He's black. Period, end of story. If the people who voted for him for this one reason had not voted, he wouldn't have been re-elected. No way, no how. But in the view from downrange - in other words, in my humble opinion - the main reason he was re-elected is because the vast majority of the 95% of the black voters in America put on their racist hats and voted skin color instead of proven abilities and record of accomplishments, both of which were decidedly lacking, by the way. And there's absolutely nothing anyone will ever say that will convince me otherwise.

My question is directed at those of you who voted for this asshat for reasons other than skin color. I'm not going to try to avoid offending anyone; those days are long over. If you can't handle my opinions stated in the manner in which I choose to state them, then I suggest you stop reading at this point, close out this page and go look at something else because I'm going to speak my mind and I honestly don't give a rat's ass who I offend or who doesn't like it. Those of you who truly know me and know how I think, act, and treat people will understand; those of you who don't know me won't understand, and I honestly have neither the time nor the inclination to explain it to you. You either get it, or you don't.

For those of you who voted for this buffoon, let's take a close look at just who you voted for, shall we?

This President has spent more money in the shortest amount of time than any other President in history. On top of that, he lied to you during the campaign of 2008 when he said, "If I can't get this done (fix the economy) in three years, we're talking a one-term proposition!" Well, it's FOUR YEARS later, it still isnt' done, and instead of admitting his mistake he asked you for ANOTHER FOUR YEARS to do it.

And you gave it to him!

If he can't get it done in four, what makes you think he can get it done in eight? The balance in Congress didn't shift, neither party holds any additional advantage over the other, so things are pretty much the same now as they were 4 years ago. So just what in the hell makes you think he can get it done this time around? It's going to be more of the same - NObama failing to get things done and then blaming everyone else for his failures. Only now it's HIS economy that he inherited, but I'm quite sure he'll continue to blame Bush. Blaming other people for his failures has proven to be the only thing this asshat does well.

This President has usurped the Constitution - the document he swore an oath to protect and defend, by the way - by issuing more Executive Orders than the past two presidents in the entire 16 years of both President's terms combined. If he can't get what he wants past Congress, then all he does is sign an Executive Order, thus bypassing Congress and the Constitution to force what he wants down the throats of the American people.

So are you telling me by voting for him that you're okay with him treating the Constitution as a guideline rather than the rule of law? Really?

This President also lied to you about not raising your taxes. He slid this one in on you when he and the Demoncrats and Libtards in Congress shoved NObamacare down the throats of the American people. During his campaign of 2008 he swore not to raise taxes, but that's exactly what he did with NObamacare. In case you haven't been keeping up on current events, the money that the Feds will take from you should you fail to purchase health care (as NObamacare requires you to do - but more on that shortly) has been legally judged as a "tax" by no less than the Supreme Court of the United States.

So that pretty much ends that argument, no matter how much the Libtards try to spin it.

And as far as NObamacare goes, this is possibly the biggest lie that NObama has told to the American people - and if it's not a lie, then it's one hell of a big misdirection. He told us - and too many of you believed it - that he was going to institute "a health care program that will provide quality health care for every American," with emphasis being placed on "provide." This misdirection leads you to believe that the Feds are going to GIVE you FREE health care; actually, the truth is that NObamacare doesn't GIVE you a damned thing. It REQUIRES you to PURCHASE health care, and if you don't, then the IRS comes after you to collect that tax the SCOTUS was talking about. So if you're one of those welfare rats who voted skin color because you thought your savior and hero was going to GIVE you FREE healthcare, then you're in for a surprise.

You're also a racist idiot, but I'll save that for another post at another time.

As for foreign policy, well, let's put it this way: the obvious lack of leadership and dynamic foreign policy coupled with the lackadaisical liberal "it can never happen to us" attitude of NObama and his band of merry idiots has resulted in the ONLY successful terrorist attack on a US resource since 9/11. And the really tragic part about it is that the staff at the embassy in Libya told the administration that they feared a terrorist attack and did not have the resources to defend against it.

And the NObama administration sat on its collective ass and did nothing! As a result, the embassy was attacked, and the Ambassador and two others were killed. On top of that, there has been NO definitive actions of any kind to indicate any type of retaliatory action being taken against anyone - so our Ambassador and two other Americans are dead, and the NObama administration apparently could give a shit. Hell, NObama hasn't even admitted it was a terrorist attack, even though the CIA, the FBI, and his own Chief of Staff have done so!

And let's talk a bit about the billions of dollars of OUR tax money this moron has wasted, shall we?

Ever hear of a company called Solyndra? You know, that was the "clean energy" company that NObama praised during his campaign, the one that his staff shoved the loan approval through for after his election, the one NObama attended the ground breaking ceremony for - and the one that went BANKRUPT this past summer. Remember them? And since that time, yet another "clean energy" company that NObama gave millions of our tax dollars to has also failed, that company being the one that was going to provide the batteries for the Chevy Volt. Seems that the company went bust and closed its doors before they delivered even ONE battery to Chevy. More tax money down the crapper.

And how about all of that "stimulus" money he handed out to companies to "create jobs?" Was that a success? Well, in a word - NO. The unemployment rate stayed in excess of 8% for the first THREE AND A HALF YEARS of his first term, all this after he promised you that under his administration, the unemployment rate wouldn't get any higher than 8%. And when he first started talking about the "stimulus" program, his administration said that the program would create enough jobs to lower the unemployment rate to 6% or less. And, of course, none of that happened. The unemployment rate stayed above 8% for 43 STRAIGHT MONTHS.

Then there was all that talk about running "the most transparent administration" in the history of the nation - and the very first thing he did was take his band of merry idiots in Congress and go behind closed doors to "negotiate" the health care bill.

I could go on with more - much more, like "Fast and Furious," the Attorney General who has been held in contempt of Congress for ignoring a subpoena, the extension of "executive privilege" to cover Holder's ass, the now-infamous "apology tour" he took overseas, the appointment of a person to the Supreme Court who has never sat on the bench in judgement of a trial a single day of her life, the incompetency of the Director of Homeland Security - but by now I think you get the point.

And if not, here it is in plain English: in 2008 America screwed up big time and elected a man President based on his skin color, and in doing so they elected the most unprepared, inexperienced, naive, and undeserving person in the history of the nation. And in 2012 the same people turned around and did it again, proving two things: racism is alive and well and IS NOT living in "white America," and some people just don't learn from their mistakes.

I have honestly tried to figure out why anyone who voted for this man for reasons other than his skin color did so, and for the life of me I can't figure it out. I've asked a couple of my friends who voted for him about this, and so far no one has even tried to give me an answer. Wonder why that is?

Out of this whole debacle of an election there is, after all, a silver lining to the dark cloud. It's not much, but it's something, and right about now people like me need something to hold on to, so here it is: the asshole can't run for a third term. When this upcoming term is over, that's it. He's out on his ass, and there's nothing anybody can do about it.

But the really scary thing is this: now that he can't run again, he has nothing to lose. So now there's nothing stopping him from doing the things he wanted to do during the first term but didn't because he wanted a second term. Now there's nothing except the Republicans in Congress to stop him, but even they can't stop an Executive Order.

Stand by for an all-out assault on the Second Amendment, and it ain't gonna be pretty. He hinted at this during the Presidential debates, so you can bet he'll act on it during his second reign of terror.

And if I'm wrong about this, in January of 2017 I'll kiss your ass on Main Street and give you a week to draw a crowd.

Gun Control Laws Don't Work - EVER

First and foremost, let me say right up front that the recent shootings in Aurora, Colorado are a tragedy, and my heart and prayers go out to the victims and their families.

If this latest shooting spree proves anything, it proves once again that background checks simply don't work, and that the current system is a farce. All of the weapons and ammunition used in the shooting were bought legally, and there's nothing that anyone or any system of registration or background checking could have done to prevent the sale. The reason behind this is simple - you can't tell if someone is nuts unless they've been diagnosed, and in this case the shooter has had ZERO mental issues in his background. Therefore, the system set in place by the Libtards and the Demoncrats in the sixties has failed once again to do what they said it was going to do - protect the American people from nuts like this.

So now Feinstein and the other Libtards and Demoncrats in Congress are calling for yet more useless gun control laws. These supposedly educated people are either too stupid or simply unwilling to recognize the simple fact that laws of this type will only affect law-abiding citizens, and that criminals will totally and completely ignore them. That's why they're called "CRIMINALS."

While it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this one out, some members of Congress still just don't get it.

But let's take a look at the concept of laws in another way, shall we?

The common misconception that people seem to be laboring under is that a law will "protect" the public in some fashion or another, that the mere existence of a law will prevent the bad people in our society from doing what the law says they shouldn't do. While this theory is a nice one, that's all it is - a nice theory. The reality of it is that no law in the world is designed to "protect" you, nor can it since criminals don't obey the law.

Every society in every part of the world has what is considered an acceptable way of life, things that society says are okay to do and things that are not okay to do. The enacting of a law simply puts down on paper the official notice that the act that the law covers is not acceptable, and will not be tolerated by the society which enacts it. Once this law is enacted, the government - whichever government that may be - now has the legal right to punish those who break the law, and the law also sets what the punishment can be.

In short, laws are not designed to protect; rather, they're designed to punish.

And that's what gun control laws do, but instead of punishing the criminal they punish the law-abiding citizen. There are currently more than 25,000 "gun control" laws in existence in the United States, and yet we still have mass shootings going on. I fail to see how anyone with even the smallest shred of intelligence can think for even a millisecond that the passage of yet another law will in any way change things. But here's an idea: instead of passing new laws, why not simply enforce the ones we have?

Wow, what a novel concept!

At this point, I'm sure there are some folks out there who are saying to themselves, "Well, then, if gun control laws don't work then let's just ban guns altogether! That will surely solve the problem!"

Yeah, sure it will - just like making cocaine, meth, and heroin have solved the drug problem.

But all of this talk about laws and gun control doesn't even begin to address the real issue, the real cause of tragedies such as we witnessed this week. The real cause of this is the gradual moral breakdown of American society and the failure of parents to teach their children right from wrong. I mean, really, think about it: in the 1930's anyone of any age could walk into any general store and buy a handgun, no questions asked. You could also buy a fully-automatic machine gun from the Sears mail order catalogue, again with no questions asked. Guns were far more accessible then than they are now, yet there were no school shootings, no shootings in movie theaters, no drive-by shootings, nothing of that type at all. "Gun violence" as it is being called today simply didn't exist.

The reason for that is because the moral standard in our society was so much higher and so much better than it is now, that people just didn't do things like that. It was wrong, they knew it was wrong, so they didn't do it. Simply put, they had been taught better by their parents.

The real answer to the "gun violence" problem is not to pass more laws. The real answer is twofold: first, enforce the laws we have, and second, teach your children right from wrong.

That, my friends, is the answer.
