United States Supreme Court, 1885, Murphy v Ramsey, 144 US 15, 45
“”Certainly no legislation can be supposed more wholesome and necessary in the founding of a free, self-governing commonwealth..than that which seeks to establish it on the basis of the idea of the family, as consisting in and springing from THE UNION FOR LIFE OF ONE MAN AND ONE WOMAN IN THE HOLY STATE OF MATRIMONY; [the family] is the sure foundation of all that is stable and noble in our civilization; the best guarantee of that reverent morality which is the source of all beneficient progress in social and political improvement.”
Breitbart has videos and plans to expose not only Obama but the radical left in 2012. Take a listen.
Subtitle: Typical Political Intercourse in America at Any Place and Any Time
Newt Gingrich, “Now there’s no neighborhood I know of in America, where if you went around and asked people, “Would you rather your children had food stamps or paychecks, you wouldn’t end up with a majority saying they’d rather have a paycheck. And so I’m prepared, if the NAACP invites me, I’ll go to their convention and talk about why the African American community should demand paychecks.”
“about why the African-American community should demand pay checks and not be satisfied with food stamps.”
“He has also frequently called President Obama a “food stamp president.””
Gingrich was pressed on the topic by Yvan Lamothe, an African-American New Hampshire resident.
“My point is, about a week ago — some time ago — you mentioned that black people should be able to earn a paycheck, not be on welfare, implying that black people in general are on welfare,” said Lamothe. “And I really took exception to that because it demeans my accomplishments, my hard work, because I have worked all my life. I have never been on welfare. You know about history. You know that back in the 1930s, Hitler started talking in Germany about a Jewish problem. My question to you is, do you think that blacks represent an American problem, and if you don’t think that, will you stop using blacks in general as a stepping stone or a punching bag?”
“I didn’t say what you just said,” he said. “Let me be very clear, because this is something that makes me, quite frankly, very irritated. … What I said was, there’s a real problem in America because you have a president who’s put more people on food stamps — people, I didn’t say any ethnic group, people — than any other president in history. … And I said I would be willing to go to the NAACP annual convention — which most Republicans are not willing to do — and I’d be willing to talk about the importance of food stamps versus paychecks.”
“Now I would have thought there would have been a positive response, saying, ‘Gosh, here’s a Republican who cares enough that he’s willing to go and talk to one of the most left-wing organizations in America about how to help the people they represent,'”
“What I said was, there is a real problem with America when you have a president who has put more people on food stamps. People — I didn’t say any ethnic group, people — than any other president in history,” Gingrich explained. “I would like to get more people on paychecks.”
“There is currently 43 percent African-American teenage unemployment in the United States,” Gingrich stormed on. “That number should be unacceptable to any American, and we should have a commitment to enable every young American of every ethnic background to pursue happiness.
“And I said I was willing to go to the NAACP, which most Republicans are not willing to do. And I’d go in to talk about the importance of food stamps versus paychecks.”
Gingrich said he was surprised at the backlash from his comment.
“I would have thought there would have been a positive response to, ‘gosh, here’s a Republican who cares enough that he’s wiling to go and talk to one of the most left-wing organizations in America about how to help the people they represent.’”
A portion of Gingrich’s usual speech given to crowds includes a line in which Gingrich says more people are on food stamps under President Obama than with any other president. ABC News fact checked Gingrich’s food stamp claims earlier this month, confirming that Americans on food stamps is at a record high, but mostly attributed to a weak economy.
“The fact is if I become your nominee we will make the key test very simple – food stamps versus paychecks. Obama is the best food stamp president in American history. More people are on food stamps today because of Obama’s policies than ever in history,” Gingrich said. “I would like to be the best paycheck president in American history.”
BOO WHO NEWT can’t cry his way out of this one…..Unless food stamp recipients are an “Invented People”
It is not possible to make points and gain ground on any issue currently mired in political correctness and racial oversensitivity if you are a Republican and/or a conservative in this country. You might as well just give it a rest.
The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people’s money. Margaret Thatcher
We contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle. Winston Churchill (1903)
On speaking about communism: “We pretend to work; they pretend to pay us.” Vladimir Voinovich
There are severe limits to the good that the government can do for the economy, but there are almost no limits to the harm it can do. Milton Friedman, Nobel laureate
There is no worse tyranny than to force a man to pay for what he does not want merely because you think it would be good for him. Robert A. Heinlein
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. You cannot further the brotherhood of many by encouraging class hatred. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn. You cannot build character and courage by taking away mans initiative and independence. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves. Attributed to Abraham Lincoln, but actually penned by William J. H. Boetcker
There is no virtue in compulsory government charity, and there is no virtue in advocating it, A politician who portrays himself as “caring” and “sensitive” because he wants to expand the Government’s charitable programs is merely saying that he’s willing to try to do good with other people’s money. Well, who isn’t? And a voter who takes pride in supporting such programs is telling us that he’ll do good with his own money – if a gun is held to his head. P. J. O’Rourke
Government’s view of the economy should be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. If it stops moving, subsidize it. Ronald Reagan (1986)
Government IS The Problem Ronald Reagan
If you have been voting for politicians who promise to give you goodies at someone else’s expense, then you have no right to complain when they take your money and give it to someone else, including themselves. Thomas Sowell (1992)
The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened. Norman Thomas – Socialist Party Presidential candidate (1948)
No republic has long outlived the discovery by a majority of its people that they could vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. Alexander Tytler
Is it upsetting when Hannity calls Pres. Obama “the annointed one”?
Here is why he does that.
Obama was a fantasy, wrapped in a PR campaign, inside a house of mirrors. People cried, fainted and sang like he was the 2nd Coming, instead of acting like responsible adults and taking their vote seriously. And here is what we got: a legend. Read on……
I gasp in disbelief when I hear anyone from the left say the media is not biased. So I’m starting a new category here with this post. The category is “Media Bias” and here is the story.
The obvious contrast between the Tea Party and the Occupy Wall Street people is there for all to see. I’ve read comments from police about how peaceful and lawful the Tea Party protests were. Some have said it was like being on vacation. And I’ve seen photos showing that on average, Tea Party people left the place cleaner than they found it.
On the left, the Occupy people first got hung up on simply leaving at all, let alone leaving the place clean. And the evidence has been there for all to see that the OWS has been lawless, dirty and aimless. Thousands have been arrested and the locations have been left looking like the city dump.
Yet our unbiased mainstream media names the “Protester” as “Person of the Year” and the Tea Party as “extremist”. It’s like walking through Alice’s Looking Glass!
Here’s the link to an article that inspired this post:
Such a Double Standard: Tea Party Was ‘Extremist’ But OWS ‘Protester’ Is ‘Person of the Year’
1) Don’t marry out of insecurity. That means you should not marry someone out of fear that no one else would ever have you. Marriage is a lifelong proposal and the one you marry MUST be someone you are able to be one with. An old country song advises, “If it Don’t Come Easy, Better Let it Go.”
2) Virginity until Marriage Has its advantages. Today in 2011, I see a sea of people raising families that did not come into existence by conviction, planning, preparing and praying. Almost all the families I see came into existence because unmarried, uncommitted people had sex and got pregnant. Their decision to stay together and raise a family was not the result of preparing and planning, but was a matter of making the best of a bad situation. And the state of the family in 2011 is proof that this method is frought with difficulty and failure. And failure produces hurt and unhealthy children; our citizens of our future.
3) Live Your Life. Don’t Settle for your life living YOU! If I had it to do over again, I would start at an early age and start putting real goals out in front of me and making a life plan to achieve those goals. Don’t just wander through your life aimlessly. Who are you? What are you about? What makes you tick? What are your interests? Incorporate all those things into a plan that gives you a chance to REALIZE your needs and desires.
4) Have some conviction in life. And have your convictions tethered to time tested convictions, not just the latest silly fad that has floated by. How about tethering your convictions to the Bible? There’s a good anchor! Learn not only from the One who made you, learn from 6,000 years of human history instead of some zany liberal college professor in your college classroom.
5) Learn from your elders. New and good ideas are fine, but life isn’t about trying to outthink the entire history of mankind on planet Earth or outhinking God. The latest generation is really not as brilliant as they fancy themselves. Inexperience plus zeal does not equal wisdom!
6) Get in the habit of saving money. On the balance sheet of a business, the value of the company is equal to the assets minus the liabilities. That means that if you have a $150,000 house that you owe $120,000 on, 3 credit cards each with $10,000 on it, a checking account with $1,000 in it and a line of credit balance of $1,000, well my friend, you aren’t worth a dime even if you do make $30/hour. You have lots of “stuff” but your net worth is exactly ZERO. And zero net worth isn’t going to do much for you when you get too old to work and have nothing to lean on.
7) Get out of debt. Carry only the least amount of debt necessary. Debt is a drag on your life. The Bible tells us that the debtor is slave to the lender. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to be a slave to anyone.
8 ) Live within your means in a deliberate and organized way. That means develop a budget that fits your abilities and needs to the best of your ability and stick to it. The alternative is continual financial pressure on your life.
9) Assess your ability to deal with reality and live according to reality. I know a person who has never had a fulltime job by choice. This person was also victimized by a close friend who spent their life savings. The result of the loss of money and the lack of income eventually led to this person losing their home from inability to maintain the mortgage. The lesson this person took from the experience (accompanied by much anger) was that the ones he/she lost the house to were crooks because it was his/her home. Of course, this is NOT the lesson of this tragic experience. But it is a good illustration of someone who does not live in reality. Don’t lie to yourself. Face reality and make decisions to deal with the reality, not the fantasy in your head because reality will always win, especially if you make decisions based on fantasy.
Watching Obama being “grilled” on 60 Minutes on TV. I am so tired of the mindset that thinks the country should be concerned about income equality. What a stupid concept. Here are some off the cuff comments about bad liberal thinking:
