ALL Americans...Harry Reid!!!

Posted by 8th man (standing) on Thursday, July 28, 2011 8:29:36 AM
Sooo the latest proposal to help save America from economic disaster was "written for the Tea Party,not for the American people"...snorts "Hot head" "Dingy" Harry Reid. ...WRONG!!!!I got a little info for the senator that will prove most helpful in his confusing situation. According to every poll made on this issue the OVERWHELMING magority of Americans DO NOT want this country to go bankrupt!! The plan proposed by House speaker John Boehner is not perfect by a long shot BUT it is to help ALL Americans!! --get a CLUE-"Dingy"!!This is NOT a "right wing" or a "left wing" issue. This  is a National crisis that effects all of us--GOT IT? I support cut,cap and ballance and in my opinion the Democrat controlled senate are showing their true color in not supporting it--that color is YELLOW! Look close America to see the ones who are really tring to save this Nation from collapse and the ones who want the insane, big brother,out of controll spending to continue leading to the coming train wreck!It is not hard because it is right before our eyes. The elections of last November were much more than a referendum of the disasterous policies of the Democrats. America is taking action and fighting BACK!!Saving America from economic ruin is what the Tea Party is all about. The rocks are swiftly approaching and time is running out to stear this ship away from the looming peril now before us. Where will this ship go? We will soon see---won't we "Dingy"?

Democrat delusions & Capitol kool-aid

Posted by 8th man (standing) on Thursday, July 21, 2011 9:07:18 AM
Seen and heard enough? I know I have! In 2006 then senator Barack Obama decryed raising the dept ceiling as a "falure of leadership". Hmmm-I find that very interesting considering the way the Democrats are wailing now to raise it without solving the SPENDING problem that is bankrupting this nation  (Ronald Reagan .....proved right again) The cut,cap,and ballance bill  the house put together is a good step in the right direction. Is it perfect? No but do the Democrats have to offer? more spending? The Democrat run senate is showing all of us their true nature in opposing this very real effort by Houseer  Republicans to help save America from economis collapse. The Democrats delusional approach dos'nt fly with Americans who are not buying their kool-aid. HELLO- Democrats!!! the mid -term elections of last November were a meassage from the American People!!We DO NOT want to continue on the disasterous direction that you were taking us!!By  opposing a very real effort like cut,cap,and ballance solve this mess the Democrats are showing us that they STILL have not gotten the meassage. Furthermore, they are still not listening! As the circus on Capitol Hill continues and August 2nd looms nearer I can garentee you one thing---ALL AMERICA is watching and listening to what is said......and We will REMEMBER in 2012....bank on it.

Just reduce the #$@%& SPENDING!!!

Posted by 8th man (standing) on Friday, June 24, 2011 7:16:09 PM
STOP the INSANITY! It does not take a rocket scientist to figure out the solution to the economic crisis that now grips this nation. Ronald Reagan said it best conserning our dept problem:"we spend to much". PLAIN and SIMPLE!! It seems all we hear from Ben Bernanke and the Democrats is to keepon raising the dept ceiling...AGAIN! Then what? just keep on spending willy-nilly and think there are no consquences? Last November the American PEOPLE sent a message to Washington..with VOTES. The new blood GOP are trying to do what they pledged to US  they would do--reduce spending to SAVE AMERICA for US and our CHILDERN!Their efforts are largly being hampered by the spend-happy Democrats who appearently are thinking that the gravy train will go on forever. NEWS FLASH Dems...IT WON'T!! Is it any wonder that Eric Candor and the Republicans walked out of the talks when the Democrats  pushed for taxes? It does not surprise me one bit. This nation IS in trouble. There are those who are calling for fiscal responcibility with our spending and there are those who would rather see America driven into the GROUND than to tighten their belt.The gravy train is heading for a train WRECK and the warning wistle is falling on deaf (Democratic) ears!! August 2nd will be here sooner that we think. The newspapers just love to paint the GOP as the "bad guys" because of their stand on reducing the crazy spending. SO  I have two questions for  the press and they are as follows: question A: WHO are the jokers who want  additional taxes and the disasterous spending to continue? Question B is::WHO are the ones who are screaming for the reducuction in spending and for the RETURN to fascal responcibility?  I do believe we know the answers to both..Let me answer them FOR YOU! The answer to question A is the Democrats.The answer to question B the Tea Party backed new blood GOP!!August 2nd is nearing....what will happen? We will see.

4 Liberty and with Israel!

Posted by 8th man (standing) on Tuesday, May 24, 2011 10:35:15 AM
The recent meeting at the White House between Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu and president Barack Obama was interesting....to say the least. Israel is our staunchest ally and the ONLY democracy in the middle east. WE must support and show solidarity to this country which is (in my opinion) the shining hope for that whole region. To push Israel to return to the 1967 borders is basically calling the country to open itself further to those who wish to  distroy it. All we have to do is to read the vile posion spewed at  Israel (and to us) from enimies of Israel ( Hello Iran-Hamas).Why can't the so called "Palestinians" give to make peace with Israel? All we hear is what Israel must do. It is high time that those who truly wish for freedom and Liberty to stand with this democracy. The enimies of liberty make it quite clear where they stand--they say so in their rocket attacks. Isreal has demonstrated time and time again its resolve to stand --even when it seems that the odds are overwhelming. The courage of the Isreali people and those who love liberty shine like a becon in a world looking for leadership and hope. There are many in Washington that claim we are too pro Israel---I say to them--WHERE do YOU STAND??do you stand whith those who hate Liberty and want Israel pushed to the sea? OR do you stand with the magority of America that not only stand with Israel but all who cherish Libery?I shows a lot when you make a stand. The Israeli people need to see who are standing with them in liberty. There are a lot and I am one of them.

Dems "fiddle"while America "burns"

Posted by 8th man (standing) on Saturday, February 19, 2011 8:58:51 AM

 Legend has it while the city of Rome was being distroyed by fire the Roman emperor Nero just stood and played the fiddle. He then blamed the christians for the distruction! Let's fast track to the preasent shall we? We face a 14 trillion dollar national dept that is very real. The new GOP house leadership in taking steps to deal with this just as the American people voted them in office to do last november. Soooowhat does senate harry GREED(oh...I mean Reid) and his fellow tax-a-crats do? you guessed it! They are "fiddling" around doing almost nothing as the deadline of March 4 is just around the corner. Instead of seriously working to reduce the disasterous out of control spending that is distroying our economy we have democrats circling the wagons around the pork barrel. I totally agree with what Mitch Daniels said at the CPAC conference...we face a "new red menace". This one of ink.It is BACKBONE time and the burden is on congress to show fascal responciblity..and NOW!!!before this sinkhole of national dept gets any deeper--and we all know what happens to a building on top of a sinkhole.As house speaker John Boehner said the democrats are risking a government shutdown "rather than cut spending and follow the will of the American People" The elections of last November spoke loud and clear-Americans want a different direction from the disasterous spending insanity that has been going on for far to long. It appears the new GOP leadership is listening...but the democrats just keep on playing their fiddle.

OK 112th...WALK your TALK!

Posted by 8th man (standing) on Wednesday, January 05, 2011 1:38:24 PM
This ain't no lie: Nancy Pelosi-bye-bye-BYE!!The 112th Congress is now sworn in...it is ACTION time now. The November elections were a decision by the American people about the direction this country was being taken. If Americans wanted the disasterous-socialist -anti-Constitution direction that the Democrats were taking they would of voted so. The fact of the matter is they did NOT!! (and by the way Joy Behar I'M one of those "Constitution loving" indaviduals you bashed--and there are a LOT more of US than you'll EVER know!)The 112th Congress is now here-the Calvery has arrived! AND this Calvery was chosen by the American people. Make no mistake-this Congress already has a lot on its plate. From repealing Obamacare to reigning in the out of control spending that has pushed our economy on the very brink of collapse. Speaking of Obamacare if it is all that great then WHY has over 200 buisnesses got wavers so they do not have to comply?--answer THAT liberals!!This new Congress has great hope and potential.I cheer the reading of the Constitution!! Maybe many liberals will get an education---we can hope anyway. Yes, It is a new year with new hopes and a new direction. America has voted, we have all heard the TALK, Now it is time for the new Congress to WALK the WALK!!!

Hey ET...What about Captain America?

Posted by 8th man (standing) on Wednesday, November 17, 2010 10:01:14 AM
ok...ok...OK! I admit it. I'm a HUGE super hero fan! I have 8th man on dvd, classic Shadow radio shows on tape, and practically every BATMAN movie ever made(even some rare shows from the 40s). Speaking of the 1940s there is a hero that was born during that time who STILL ranks way up there among the CHAMPIONS for LIBERTY!That hero of course is CAPTAIN AMERICA!!!So you can guess my dissapointment when I watched Entertainment Tonight last night and saw the plug for the new Green Lantern movie but not the nwe Captain America movie--also due out next Summer.Hey, don't get me wrong here! The new Green Lantern movie looks GREAT! more power to the ring... but do'nt leave out "CAP"! If there was ever a time we need to rally for the red,white, and blue it is NOW. We just had a grueling election year, we have those outside our borders slamming our country, and Patriotism for the uniqueness of America is downplayed by officials from congress to the so called "united" nations. Captain America was born to lift the moral of a nation at WAR. We fought Imperial Japan as well as Hitlers Socialst Nazi empire---and WON!!!There are those who do not want the American flag to be displayed even when a boy wants to fly it on his bike!!I appaud the American Leagion Riders who rode with this brave lad---with the flag!Right now our BRAVE forces are in Afganistan, Iraq and other parts of the world.They are there because of liberty! WE need to RALLY!! because we have our precious God given liberties in this country that were defended at a great price., My Dad was on a troop transport during WW2and he lost many of his buddies.We are FREE because of the many who fought to defend liberty during that great conflict.I BELIEVE in the uniqueness of this great country and its Liberties. America (as Ronald Reagan very truly said) Is a city on a hill! I repeat myself--it IS a TIME to RALLY!!If anyone wants to know where I stand just look at the flag waving at the top of this post.

Hasta la vista...Nancy!!!

Posted by 8th man (standing) on Tuesday, November 09, 2010 8:52:19 AM

The message was sent..loud and clear!Time to give up that gavel Nancy Pelosi because WE the PEOPLE have chosen! The message sent this past Tuesday was unmistakable!!The words of Donald Trump come to mind--YOUR"RE FIRED!!The Democrats have been living in their own La-La land ever since they took power in 2006. Instead of focusing on building America they have focused on creating a TAX-IN-STIEN, over-reaching,  big brother government that has grown WAY to big for it's britches. Washington under the Democrats has turned a deaf ear to our collective voices about out of controll spending and they have turned a blind eye to the reality that Amerca DID NOT want what they were selling...PERIOD!!!What happens now that the house is under new leadership will depend on RESOLVE and good old-fashioned BACKBONE!!The damage done to this nation by the democrats "closed door" tyranny is staggering. We have a national dept of over 13 TRILLION,unemployment is at 9.6% , and then there is Obamacare. This Orwellian monstrosicity was crafted behind closed doors and then RAMMED through congress over the objections of over 60% of the AMERICAN PEOPLE!!!At TEA party rallies and at Townhall meetings from coast to coast---WE TOLD THEM SO!!!Yes, this country is damaged--but not through. With Gods help we can fix this and become even BETTER than before the nightmare that begun in 2006. WE have already proved with these elections that WE can STAND and make our own choices. This country was built by  Patriots who stood up to tyranny and forged a NATION!!WE are STILL (as Ronald Reagan said) a CITY on a HILL! This past Tuesday we STOOD! and the LIGHT STILL SHINES!!!

8 DAYS!!!

Posted by 8th man (standing) on Tuesday, October 26, 2010 8:59:49 AM
I like the number 8...I especially like it because of the fact that in 8 days-counting today- WE the PEOPLE will be able to CLEAN the HOUSE of many who have brought this nation to the very brink of economic and moral ruin! (are you reading this Nancy Pelosi?? are you reading this  'dingy' Harry Reid?) It is not just the job killing-out of controll spending that has put our country in such peril-it is the fact that out liberties are under threat. The people have seen what has been happening since the Democrats took controll in 2006. Instead of focusing on building America with jobs they have persued a big government adgenda with its excesses and controll. Because of Obamacare our freedom of choice was stripped from us. This 2.000 page monster was crafted by the "closed door" tyranny  of the Democrats and rammed thru congress.  Does it matter that 60% of Americans opposed this unconsitutional assult on our liberty AND told congress so in townhall meetings??Who could forget the words of (the soon to be retired) House speaker Nancy Pelosi that this legislation would pass "no matter what". OH REALLY?? No matter what over 60% of what Americans think??What will be next if this goes on? Will we be "forced" to buy a car from GM- Government motors?? or worse yet-"forced" to get our money from  a "government" bank??With many God-fearing Americans I DO NOT like the Socialist direction that this country is being taken ----The GOOD news is that WE the PEOPLE!!!CAN and WILL DO something about it!!------in 8 DAYS!!!

all talk...2 little 2 late

Posted by 8th man (standing) on Wednesday, September 29, 2010 12:35:42 PM
Now we see and hear all the talk from Barack Obama , Bill Clintion and others---again about the economy. After coming to power in 2006 what was the focus of the Democrats? the economy? NO...the focus was Big Brother government with its taxes and control over our indavidual lives. Obamacare with its unconstitutional indavidual mandate has stripped us of our indavidual right to choose, GM has become government motors  and now the internet is in the government sights.-----SEEN ENOUGH??By their own actions this Democrat party run Washington has betrayed the trust of the American people who voted for them and they want Americans to vote for them in November--HA!!. All we have to do is to look at the results of what was already done! Doctors are leaving the profession--many are refusing to accept more medicade patents and our economy is sputtering..NO it has SPUTTERED! We hear a lot of talk about "moving forward" TO WHAT?? a system that everything is controlled by Big Brother?? The edge of the cliff is in sight--conservatives are calling "stop" and the progressives still pell-mell forward to certain economic train wreck because of this govenments Tax-a-holic spending!!! I for one have seen and heard ENOUGH!! and I AM NOT ALONE!! Just a few weeks ago over 500.000 who marched in washington to restore honor echoed this same message.In a few weeks Americans will send another message---with their VOTES!!All of this backyard talk of the economy comes 2 little and 2 late for the Democrats--Sanity is making a comeback---THIS NOVEMBER!!!

So much for 9/11...Mr Bloomberg

Posted by 8th man (standing) on Wednesday, August 04, 2010 1:38:07 PM
I remember...not so long ago sitting in my college classroom when the professor walked in with an announcement. He said that an event had just occured that was just like Pearl Harbor. That day was September 11, 2001.  This brutal,insane, and cowardly attack by Islamic terrorists took the lives of over 3000 Americans!Now,  we have Mayor Michael (Boooming Idiot) Bloomberg standing in front of the Stature of Liberty praising the decision to allow an Islamic center to be built there. I wonder if mr mayor ever read the teaching in islam that requires mosques to be built on sites of islamic conquest? OR I wonder if the intrepid mayor has ANY feelings towards the families of those who perished that day?This is the mayor who thinks we are safer if our ligitamte ownership of guns was taken away.WHERE is Rudy Giuliani when you need him? Right after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor ....something happened in this country. WE WOKE UP!!I do believe the words of the Japanese admarial were: "I beleive all we have done today was to awaken a sleeping giant-and filled him with a terrible resolve" We knew then--and -many know KNOW that there are forces that have declared war on our freedom. The Constitution to them is nothing. We knew if we did not do all we can TO WIN we would lose. THIS nation not only woke up but morphed into the INCREDABLE HULK!!with a blowtorch!The time has come to STAND again--to vote this November!!I hope the situation in New York will turn around-we will see.

YES, We CAN!...and YES, We WILL!!!

Posted by 8th man (standing) on Thursday, June 24, 2010 10:18:22 AM
Obama and Holder: YOU have NO standing to ask any questions. That is the title of an article by JB Williams in the canadian free press regarding criticism of Washington.My question: IS THAT SO? In the words of a very popular animated show about a "builder" "YES We CAN! futhermore, YES, We WILL!!The last time I checked it out we were living in a free Constitutional Republic. I do believe the Constitution of said free Republic allows something called "free speech". In Townhall meetings and TEA partiy rallies the people of America have raised concerns and many questions regarding how Washington is being run. We have an out of controll spending TAX-a-holic government that is continuing to spend money faster than the oil spilling in the gulf of Mexico. We have a National defict that is getting bigger as Washington proposes even MORE spending!! Hmmmm ,now I wonder who it was who said these words:" I'm sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and disagree with this administration, somehow you're not patriotic. We need to stand up and say we're Americans, and we have the right to debate and disagree with any administration." Hmmm OH yes-now I remember it was Hillary Clinton! Right now the Democrats are scrambling their brains because an awakened America is STANDING UP!! The RUMBLING that you hear in the hills is the sound of a voting America that has had ENOUGH!!They are speaking up and Washington will hear a lot between now and November....change is coming..for many in America and this blogger constructive change cannot come soon enough.

Jesus I believe...Nancy Pelosi not so much

Posted by 8th man (standing) on Thursday, June 10, 2010 3:23:15 PM
House speaker Nancy Pelosi really got an earful at the America's future now conference tuesday. The thing is this was a" progressive"conference!!For many upset it was the utter failure of the Democratic party to deliver on its promises.  For others -like this blogger- It is the deplorable, ruthless, and (in my opinion) TYRANNICAL imposing of government control congress has passed to date. Is it November yet??We hear a LOT of retoric and talk but see more of "buisness as usual"!!Earlier this year the house speaker said she has a "duty to pursue polices in keeping with the values of Jesus" OH REALLY??This coming from a career politician who has religiously defended the killing of innocent babies by ABORTION??even PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION?????I have some words to say about that but young veiwers my be reading so I cannot use them. People are waking up to the facts of what his party has done: Obamacare has stripped our right of free choice, the so called financial 'reform' gives the government the power to sieze any financial institution practically at will, and the National deficit is bankrupting America. It really is a picture of hope and change is it not? The Pharisees talk the big talk but their actions tell a different story altogether. We still have real choices (thank God) here in this country. The GOP primaries in California and Nevada proves this. America is WAKING UP and using Individual Liberty to make Indavidual choices--trusting in a power greater than anything man-made.---- Yes, I know Jesus would approve.

No experience? No problem...for Democrats

Posted by 8th man (standing) on Wednesday, May 12, 2010 1:50:05 PM
Well,  it does seem to be a pattern here. If someone has no experience for a government post they are a perfect candidate for the job according to the ruling democrats. President Barack Obamas choice for the Supreme Court has never been a judge ,however in the minds of the Democrats she is fully qualified for the highest court in the land. Someone-anyone please correct me if I am wrong here but if someone is being concidered for a job does'nt it make sense that the indavidual would have SOME experience in actually DOING that job??What is more disturbing to me about this situation is I did not here---at all---nip-na-da  anything at all about what matters most about the Supreme Court--the Constitution of the United States. I could care less about race, male or female white,black or polka dot. What matters about the Supreme Court is the CONSTITUTION!!!!!If you really look at what is happening in Washington It does not take long to figure out the direction that many at the capitol want to take this nation (remember Van Jones?? Anita Dunn??) When  Elena Kagan was at Princeton she wrote about Socialism--lamenting it's decline. "Why" she writes has not a" radical party never attained status of a magor political force?" WHY?? I can answer that question---IT DOES NOT WORK!!! Socialism takes away the rights of indaviduals and basicaly makes the people slaves to the state. The last time I checked slavery was tried here in America---it did not work very well. This November will be a turning point for America---which way will this nation go?? It is NOT about" left"wing or "right"wing. In the words of Ronald Reagan it is about " UP or DOWN"  The choice is ours while we still can make a choice.

Obama to be subpoenad?

Posted by 8th man (standing) on Monday, April 26, 2010 4:00:26 PM

Will President Barack Obama have to appear in court to answer questions? If the defence team of  Rod Blagojevich are granted their request--yes. Lawers for the former Illinois governor have asked a federal judge last thursday to issue a subpoena for President Barack Obama to appear in connection with his political corruption trial. Sen Durbin has already been subpoenad.In defense papers filed by defense attorney Sam Adams Blagojevich said that Obama would be able to "resolve questions" about the allegation that he tried to sell or trade Obamas seat left vacant after Novembers 2008 election. Mr Blagojevch is really making his name known around!!He was on talk shows (including Larry King). He even was on Donald Trumps show "the apprentice" what is next? dancing with the stars?? The 11 page moton filed said"President Barack Obama has direct knowledge of the senate seat allegation" US district judge James B Zagel to date has not indicated how he might respond to the request. Of course I have my own views on this situation but I will save that for another post! It would be very interesting if indeed President Barack Obama is subpoenad to testify in this political corruption trial. What does he know?What does Durbin know? we may all soon find out.
