What's For Dinner?

(A special thank you to my wife's friend, Randy Rank, for this wonderful status update on FB)

"I've decided that for the next week I am simply going to talk like a candidate seeking election."

"OK.. but what do you have planned for dinner?"
 

"That's a very good question and one I am very glad you asked. I find it important in the equality issue that men spend more time in the kitchen as opposed to the stereotypical model which has kept women oppressed for centuries and kept their wages below par when compared for men in an equivalent role."

"Yes, but what have you actually planned for dinner?"

"My plan, if I can get the cooperation of those that have been opposing and creating havoc in the system for so long will ensure not only that you have dinner, but that all Americans receive a fully balanced and nutritious dinner for the remainder of their lives. Even into their retirement years, a feast of plenty so to speak, in our glorious land of prosperity."

"Holy Mother of Pearl.  What...is....for....dinner?"

"I know many of you have been impatient, and it might be seen that the answers have not been forthcoming but if we show a bit of patience, and work to build a stronger America, then everything will get better. Let me be perfectly clear on this, There is a plan and things will improve."

 

"How about just getting some &%$#'ing food on the table????!!!!" 

 

"That's specifically the type of underhanded rhetoric I'd expect. There will be food, and I guarantee that in spite of the concerns, it will be healthy and fully certified by one of my advisors in the administration. Too often I have heard the conspiracy theory platform from some such as yourself that the food is but an illusion. But if elected, as I have said before, there will be food on every table and none, and let me be perfectly clear in this, none will go without! (Wags finger at the camera)."

"The Fix Is In... Pass It On!"

Conservative pundits and GOP strategists are having seizures in the aftermath of the 2012 election trying to figure out "what went wrong."

Seriously? 

You honestly didn't see this freight train coming down the tracks about 20 miles ago?  Didn't you wonder why the President was so smugly confident on Election Day?  And in spite of the following:

All the areas in red voted for Romney.

The simple truth is that this election was fixed, pure and simple.  Chicago politics has now gone mainstream.

• First of all, the Democratic Party in the U.S. has consistently insisted that "anyone" be able to vote, even if they are not legally entitled to vote, which is patently illegal.  Worse yet, they have openly and sometimes violently opposed picture ID requirements.  The stated reason?  It would "discriminate" against a population segment that already has to have picture ID to function in just about any capacity in this country.  The real reason?  It would make it harder, if not impossible, to commit voter fraud.  And that simply wouldn't do.  Interestingly, Obama lost in every state that required photo ID.
• The NAACP, the organization MOST vehemently opposed to voter ID requirements, literally "took over" a polling place in Houston, kicking out the court-appointed election judges that were already there.  Nothing was done about it, after copious complaints.
• 70 court-appointed election judges were forceably required to leave a Philadelphia polling place by leftist Democratic election judges, and were only allowed back in after a court order was issued.
• In Philadelphia, members of the New Black Panther Party stood outside polling places with billy clubs to intimidate voters.
• Election officials discovered (too late, apparently), that 1 in 5 Ohio registered voters was fake.
• Thousands of registered voters in North Carolina were discovered to be over 113 years old.
• Because of Hurricane Sandy, anyone could "fax in" or "email in" their ballots, inspiring widespread voter fraud on a massive scale without any possibility of verifying whether ballots were authentic.
• Hundreds of thousands of military absentee ballots were mysteriously "misdirected" to Afghanistan that were on their way to be counted, and consequently arrived 1 day too late to be counted, which both sides admit would have seriously impacted the vote.   Tens of thousands were thrown overboard during transit, "mistaken" to be trash.
• Tens of thousands of GOP voter registrations were "accidentally" shredded in Philadelphia (ironically the "birthplace of democracy") by the leftist organization Community Voter Project.  No reason was given for the shredding, which was only discovered when an independent journalist went through their dumpster.
• Busloads of non-English-speaking Somali nationals (who were not legally eligible to vote in the first place) were brought into voting places in Ohio.  The only translators provided were Democratic translators... who encouraged them to "Vote Brown all the way down."  Brown was a Democrat running for Senator, and appeared at the top of the ballot. 
• A polling place in Philadelphia forced voters to stand in line waiting to vote next to a huge mural of Obama on the wall.
• In Detroit, an Obama voter punched a GOP voter in the face while waiting in line.
• A woman in a Detroit polling location was aggressively campaigning for Obama. A female voter in line objected. The Obama supporter punched the woman in the face.  Police came to arrest her and she smacked the cop. 
• A poster featuring President Obama that read “Change the Atmosphere” was reported to be hanging on a wall at a Florida, polling station.
• Numerous electronic voting machines "mysteriously" marked Obama when Romney was selected.  Election officials were unapologetic, and simply said the machines needed to be "recalibrated," without explanation.
• And the list, unfortunately, goes on and on and on.  Literally thousands of examples of wholesale voter fraud have been documented, and of course the Obama administration has vowed to "get right on that."

This election was not "lost."  It was stolen systematically, intentionally, and with a high degree of precision and preplanning.  My fear is that this will now be the norm.

When a political system reaches the point where it is SO corrupt that wholesale voter fraud is accepted and tolerated without being challenged, and where purely negative ads that only serve to assassinate a candidate's character are used in billion dollar mass media campaigns, whose sponsors and largely anonymous and totally unaccountable, do we have any hope as a nation of ever having a fair campaign about the issues in the future?  Or has this insideous cancer of campaign corruption now metastasized in the body politic forever?   Sadly, I fear that the prognosis is grim indeed... and could very well prove to be fatal to the democratic process in this nation.

Racist Nation

If Mitt Romney loses this election, and by all accounts, he most likely will... Martin Luther King, Jr. should turn over in his grave.

King declared that it is not the color of a man's skin that matters, but the content of his character.  And yet, with all the advances we have seen in the area of racial equality in this country, we are still a racist nation at our very core.  Only now, the racists are the ones who were formerly discriminated against.

In a recent (very disturbing) poll, 93% of African Americans said they voted for President Obama, who is black.  The reason that most gave is Black Loyalty.  Let that sink in for a minute.  They voted for Obama because he is black.  Not because he is a great leader.  Not because he has accomplished noble and worthwhile things during his first four years in office.  He hasn't.  It's because... he's black.

How do we know?  Simple.  In interview after interview after interview, they told us.  And let's face it.  Even if they hadn't admitted it, it's kind of a "Duh!" rule-out. 

The reason cannot be the economy... Obama systematically destroyed it, and incurred an obscene amount of debt in the process.  Unemployment among black youth is topping 16-18%.  Overall unimployment is galloping out of control.  But apparently, our president being black was more important than actually having jobs.

It cannot be foreign affairs; the President is so inept at foreign affairs that we hardly have any allies left.  A colossal foreign affairs failure, our president unabashedly sold us out to radical Islam, and is guilty of a massive coverup and scandal that, if pursued, is worthy of impeachment and charges of treason, and for which he may yet be criminally liable for.  This president has the blood of 4 Americans on his hands.  Of course, I'm sure his "thorough investigation" of his own coverup and complicity in murder will be voluntarily brought to light by the Oval Office, and his Attorney General, Eric "Fast & Furious" Holder. 

No, I'm sure that after the election, the President plans on just burying the whole event under yet nother Executive Gag Order.  Presto Chango.  No more scandal.  It's Bush's fault.  It's the GOP's fault.  It's the State Department, CIA, and DOD's fault.  If we know anything for certain by now, we know it's NOT going to be our president's fault.  Because he's black.

China all but owns us.  Russia's salivating over the "more flexibility" that our president has promived them "after the election."  Our credit rating is tanking.  Our jobs are being shipped overseas.  Our small businesses are drowning in taxes and suffocating regulation.  But having a black president is apparently all that matters.  ObamaPhone!

What this 93% demographic segment DOES represent, besides wholesale, unabashed, and openly admitted racism, is that a huge segment of the population who has made Public Assistance a career choice, and Government Entitlement a way of life, is more concerned about personal selfishness, laziness, and sloth than the success of our nation. 

A significant portion of this segment is admittedly uninterested in the mundane expectations of even a decade ago, in getting an education and actually getting a job.  They are perfectly happy with letting the President bribe them with an "ObamaPhone," and to pay their way to the polls every four years, so they can renew their "contract" of indolence and dependance. 

The 93% who voted for Obama "because he was black" have sold every inch of ground gained in the fight for racial equality for a $49 piece of plastic.  And what is more mind-boggling?  They're actually satisfied with the value of their trade.  Too blinded by the allure of "something for nothing," for "food stamps over a paycheck," they are so obsessed with personal selfishness and ignorance to realize the sheer magnitude of their lapse in judgment.  But hey... our president being black will make it all better.  Somehow.

The other major demographic supporting group for President Obama were Latinos, with 69% voting for our president, which represents a massive chunk of what we lovingly call "illegal immigrants,"  "guest workers," "undocumented aliens," or whatever cutesy, politically-correct term you want to apply to the millions who thumb their collective noses at our immigration laws by brazenly sneaking across our borders, and committing an astronomically higher percentage of violent crime that U.S. Citizens per capita.  But hey... our president being black is more important.

Another sizeable segment, 67% of single mothers, voted to re-elect our Black president, and represents another large Public Assistance and Entitlement demographic.  These voters feel emboldened and entitled to make very bad, careless, and even disasterous personal life decisions, only to then turn and demand that the government immediately rescue them from the consequences (and accountability) of those decisions, and/or pay their way for the rest of their lives.  They care far more about unrestained, unimpeded promiscuity than they do about the murder of unborn children or the ongoing support of those that survive... straining at the gnats of a molecule of cells that may constitute "life" on Mars, while cheerfully butchering viable human embryos and unborn infants, whom they don't consider to be "living beings."  That's too inconvenient to their lifestyle.  I guess we shouldn't even mention their ambivalence and lack of interest in providing the spawn that DO survive without being butchered with a quality of life that includes a mother AND a father.  But enough about that unpleasantness.  Our president being black is more important.

Worst of all, we, as a nation are not only breath-takingly racist... but we have rejected God altogether in the process.  We have, as a country, collectively sold our birthright as the greatest nation on earth for "mess of pottage."  An ObamaPhone.  A welfare check.  Free contraceptives.  Abortion on demand.  Gay marriage.  And oh.... we need to get God out of our government.  It makes us uncomfortable to have Him there.  It's "inconvenient."  And thank heavens we don't need God as a nation.  Having a black president is enough.  He is our Messiah now.  He will save us.  ObamaPhone!

Are we really that arrogant and stupid as a people?  Are we really this clueless, self-centered, narcissistic and hedonistic?  Have we lost our collective minds?  What hope do we have as a nation when the majority chooses evil over good, and rejects God in the process?  <shrug>  But hey... <yawn> It's all good.  There's something decent on TV tonight, and hey... we have a black President!
