Choosing The Right Lane To Follow



In pursuit of Constitutionally grounded governance, free markets and individual liberty

Obama Likely Won Re-Election Through Election Fraud
So how did Romney lose a race that numerous reputable polls and pundits predicted would be an easy win, based on historical patterns? The most realistic explanation is voter fraud in a few swing states. According to the Columbus Dispatch, one out of every five registered voters in Ohio is ineligible to vote. In at least two counties in Ohio, the number of registered voters exceeded the number of eligible adults who are of voting age. In northwestern Ohio’s Wood County, there are 109 registered voters for every 100 people eligible to vote. An additional 31 of Ohio’s 88 counties have voter registration rates over 90%, which most voting experts regard as suspicious. Obama miraculously won 100% of the vote in 21 districts in Cleveland, and received over 99% of the vote where GOP inspectors were illegally removed. The inflated numbers can’t just reflect voters who have moved, because the average voting registration level nationwide is only 70%. The vast majority of voters over the 70% level are not voting because they want to, they are voting because someone is getting them to cast a vote, one way or another. Those 31 counties are most likely the largest counties in Ohio, representing a majority of Ohio voters. This means the number of votes cast above the 70% typical voter registration level easily tops 100,000, the margin Obama won Ohio by

Mitt Romney got no votes in 59 voting districts in the city of Philadelphia last week on Election Day. None. And the unofficial vote tallies have President Barack Obama beating the former Massachusetts governor by a combined vote of 19,605 to 0, The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Such unanimous support for Obama in these Philadelphia neighborhoods, primarily in almost exclusively black sections of West and North Philadelphia, stokes fears of fraud, despite little hard evidence, experts say. “We have always had these dense urban corridors that are extremely Democratic,” Jonathan Rodden, a political science professor at Stanford University, told the Inquirer. “It’s kind of an urban fact, and you are looking at the extreme end of it in Philadelphia.” While most large cities are politically homogeneous — with as many as 80 percent of voters identifying as Democrats, they also are easier to organize over rural areas where people are more spread apart.

Teachers Flock to Northwestern University for ‘Marxist Conference’
This Saturday, the Midwest Marxist Conference was held at Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism. The event was teeming with teachers who spoke about the new found bond between the radical socialists and their Teachers Union. The all-day event, which collected money to support Chicago Socialists and featured a communist bookstore, provided students on-campus along with the radical left community to plan the next phase in their activism. Becca Barnes, a Chicago Teachers Union teacher and organizer with Chicago Socialists, proclaimed at the beginning of the conference that “the struggle here in the United States has entered a new phase. Nowhere have we pointed the way forward more clearly than here in Chicago with the teachers union strike.” After the opening plenary, breakout sessions addressed more specific topics like the history of the Democratic party, education, and case studies in Russia. In these sessions, speakers continued to celebrate the use of education as a mechanism to insert Marxism into public institutions. In one session, the idea of targeting their message to students, even over “the working class,” was debated.

Obamacare’s America: Post-Election Layoffs
The People have spoken, and business has replied. Layoff announcements are mounting at an unprecedented rate in response to Obamacare since President Obama won his second term Tuesday night. Companies across America continue to defy the conventional “wisdom” of leading financial experts for the Obama Administration who have publicly stated that under the AHCA, or Obamacare, Americans would not be at risk of losing their jobs (but rather, the new law would herald in an era of new job growth and opportunities.) As markets around the world fell upon the news of Tuesday night’s election results, businesses have shed nearly 20,000 jobs already this week, with job loss estimates that could reach as high as 150,000 by month’s end.

Liberals Think Election Was Mandate to Shut Down Conservatism by Tad Cronn
OK, I get it already. The Democrats won Tuesday’s election, I won’t say “fair and square” (I’m not convinced of that), but  decisively. And I realize that means we have to put up with watching the barbarians dancing on the battlements for  a time, but if liberals think that one election loss means conservatives are going to throw out their values and just shut up and play along, they’ve got another thing coming. We also have to face the headwinds from the unrelentingly Marxist teachings going on in public education. Our religious leaders are largely kept quiet either through the notion that religion should not be involved in politics, or through the overt threat of IRS repercussions if it does. We have not successfully penetrated the youth market or gotten into minority communities. The result is that most people only hear about conservatism through the filter of liberal news anchors, left-leaning comedians like John Stewart or hate mongers like Bill Maher. It’s too much to expect most liberals to ever watch Fox News or listen to Rush Limbaugh, because they’ve already been told exactly what “those shows” are about, according to leftist ideology. It hasn’t helped anything, either, that the GOP leadership has been paying too much attention to liberal polls and been more worried about being popular than being leaders. If conservatives want to take back the country, we need to start by doing what liberals have done for decades: infiltrate our own party and community organizations with an eye toward leadership positions, then leverage those positions to regain control of our own message. We need to infiltrate schools, media and political structures. Our primary focus has to be on informing the young and minorities who share our values but who don’t yet know it. It’s always darkest before the dawn, as the saying goes. Let the barbarians dance on the walls and have their moment.

God Will Not Be Mocked by J. Matt Barber
America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves. — Abraham Lincoln
America has forsaken her first love. She has finally, and fully, given herself over to a licentious Lothario with whom she has increasingly flirted since her youth. He is sin – and, notwithstanding full knowledge of who he is and what he intends, with him she has lain. America has tasted the poisonous fruits of lust, pride, passion, and envy – sloth, frivolity, iniquity, and entitlement. She has tasted of their sweet deception and found it irresistible. She has danced in the streets, intoxicated by the very poison that will be her undoing. America has rebelled against God. She has shaken her fist at Him and arrogantly cried, “We don’t need you. We don’t want you. We know better than you. Now go away.” And so He’s going away.  I grieve for my children. I grieve for America’s children. Evil won on election day 2012. An arrogant and rebellious nation has chosen for her leader an arrogant and rebellious man, whose arrogant and rebellious party has, as Pastor John MacArthur put it, “adopted the sins of Romans 1 as their platform.” “This is a new day in our country,” MacArthur lamented. “Parties that used to differ on economics, now differ dramatically on issues that invade the realm of God’s law and morality.”
We have mocked God.
God will not be mocked.
“Millions of Americans looked evil in the eye and adopted it,” wrote Liberty Counsel’s Mat Staver the day after the election. “Abortion, same-sex marriage and immorality carried the day.” Indeed, evil carried the day. America has willfully chosen a Democratic platform – a Romans 1 platform – upon which to stand. We have chosen a party that thrice denied God, and then returned his name in vain – amid deafening boos – to its platform.
God will not be mocked.
America has chosen a party that demands every taxpayer be complicit in the federally funded slaughter of the pre-born. We have exalted a party that seeks to – and in many was ways has already done so – enshrine into law the celebration of sexual deviancy and mock marriage.
·       We excuse sin. We call that which God calls an abomination, “equality.”
·       We call that which God calls murder, “reproductive choice.”
·       We call that which God calls theft, “fundamental fairness.”
·       We “call evil good and good evil.”
America is divided and her president the divider. The scales have tipped. The 51 percent – the takers, the God-deniers and the subversive, now outnumber the makers, the seekers of righteousness and the patriotic.

Historian, Anthropologist, Politico, Liberal, Conservative….What are we seeing? by Bill Hutter
Over the last few months, I have been contemplating the changes we are seeing and feeling in the national mood.  I have struggled with the idea that I may be misguided in my beliefs as a fiscal conservative and a social liberal.  My beliefs were formed through many influences. It started early with my hard-working family of eastern European heritage, being a Lutheran, then a period of great change when I was coming of age (late 60s and early 70s), becoming a father, being an independent-minded entrepreneur and staying married for over 30 years.  Could I be losing touch with what’s really happening? 

I repeatedly asked myself these questions, “what am I missing”, “what don’t I understand”, “what are people are seeing in our national direction that I can’t”.  Could what I believe be so wrong?  During any attempt to have meaningful discussion, things quickly became political.  I kept asking the same questions, but I could never get a clear answer that made sense to me.

Questions about:
·       Gay marriage versus rights under a civil union license issued by the state?
·       The right of a woman to choose means what?
·       Why should an unborn have more protection than person?
·       Why did President Obama expand the welfare state?
·       Why do I have support people not willing to work?
·       Does anyone really know what is happening to the Palestinian people in the West Bank?
·       Is health insurance really a right?  Or is it a privilege?
·       Why have we not fixed the immigration policy to open the country up to the smartest people on the planet?
·       Why are so many people on food stamps?
These questions and the inability to get a clear, logical answer, led me on a journey of self-questioning but also trying to find other reasons that may not be so apparent.  The polarization that we are experiencing causes us to not be able to discuss the very things that are causing this polarization.  Could the polarization be caused by the issues and the respective positions that have been taken due to peoples trying to hold onto to what they think they know, while other forces are impacting this shifting mood?

Unfortunately, when a person is afraid of change, the person works to rationalize the reason for their beliefs and when reason does not work, the position must get more extreme.  This pushes any person trying to hold onto what is familiar and comfortable to them, towards the edge-of-reason. 

The edge-of-reason builds a fundamentalist’s approach to viewing their position, while clouding their ability to see through their extreme position to recognize an opportunity to collaborate.  I believe we will continue to see this polarization for the next couple of decades, due to a macro shift in the mood of the people. 

This is not a mood shift from conservative to liberal or from democracy to socialism, but a confluence of different evolutionary events in which we are the active participants and a driving force….even if we don’t know it or want to be.  There is an undercurrent of change that has already happened and will happen again.

Labor heads say Obama backs them on 'fiscal cliff' By KEN THOMAS, Associated Press
AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka,  accompanied by Mary Kay Henry, International President of the Service Employees International Union, and Lee Saunders, president of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, spoke to reporters outside the White House in Washington, Tuesday, Nov. 13, 2012, after a meeting between business leaders and President Barack Obama to discuss the economy and deficit. Labor leaders said Tuesday that President Barack Obama remains committed to preserving tax cuts for middle class families and ensuring the wealthy pay more in taxes, outlining plans for a public campaign to pressure Republican lawmakers. The heads of several labor unions and Democratic-leaning interest groups emerged from an hour-long meeting with Obama saying they were united with the president on how to avert the so-called "fiscal cliff" and prevent more financial hardships next year. "We are very, very committed to making sure that the middle class and workers don't end up paying the tab for a party that we didn't get to go to and the president is committed to that as well," said AFL-CIO president Richard Trumka.

"There is not a more important and fundamental principle in legislation, than that the ways and means ought always to face the public engagements; that our appropriations should ever go hand in hand with our promises. To say that the United States should be answerable for twenty-five millions of dollars without knowing whether the ways and means can be provided, and without knowing whether those who are to succeed us will think with us on the subject, would be rash and unjustifiable. Sir, in my opinion, it would be hazarding the public faith in a manner contrary to every idea of prudence." --James Madison, Speech in Congress, 1790
