If I Were President?

Let's just say that I am lucky enough to win an election and the 2/3rds majority of congress is on my side, just for the sake of argument.

What I'd do. Close the borders,temporarily. Then I would order all U.S. military personnel back to the United States and temporarily shut down all our bases in other countries. Then I would dissolve all trade agreements, no more nafta. Then I would issue a statement to the world that says, "We have not abandoned you, but America must get it's house in order, once we've straightened ourselves out then we will be back to helping you".

Next. I'm gonna push my friendly congress to give me the line item veto, cut the pork right! I would shut down every thing that the U.S. gov does that is not necessary to running the country. I would then promote a bill tripling the wages of everyone serving in the military. They do the hardest work, they should get the best wage possible.

Now I want to reform elections, I would kill the electoral college and institute a fund to create a new technological way for people to vote and actually have their votes mean something. Maybe a super secure website or a cell phone vote system, I dunno, I'll leave the technicalities to the private sector company that wins the bid.

Then I will give all my prez pay to the treasury to put it toward the national debt, and then ask the senators and reps to do the same, if they balk, I'll push through a law that says they don't get paid for the privilege of serving the people. I bet the people would vote for that.

Tax reform, we need it, and I would make sure it happens, but the hard part is figuring out how to make it fair to all. We will probably have to have a panel formed to make sure that every opinion is considered, we want to do what is best after all. I don't claim to know whats best, but I got some ideas. 8% sales tax nationwide, flat, no taxes on top of that except any state sales tax that might apply. I would make it criminal for the government to tax inheritances. Estate tax must go too.

I would have to push for nationalized healthcare, I know some people don't like it but I believe it would benefit the nation in ways that wont be determinable for decades. Imagine the money Americans could save if they weren't spending it on doctor bills and prescriptions. In exchange for taking away inheritance tax, estate tax, etc., the people will be taxed a small percentage of their income for healthcare. With this system we could force down the price of medicines and healthcare. When I say nationalized healthcare I do not mean one giant hmo, I hate hmos.
I'm talking about a system that encourages you to take good care of your health but doesn't force you to make appointments. A system where everybody gets the care they need at the pace they want it. Free prescriptions. We could make this happen tomorrow if Obama hadn't already buried us under a mountain of debt. Now people are skiddish about things like this.

Oh well, I'll probably never get the chance to be president. Just a dream. AFT

Another Obama Campaign Lie

Here is the full story: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/elections/2009/04/25/turkey-obama-failed-mention-slain-turks/100days/

I'll try to not go off on a tyrade as I am apt to do. Why did he change his mind? Could it be that maybe it has to be 5 million people before you call it a genocide. Probably not. Maybe it is because the million Armenians killed will pale in comparison to what Obama wants to do. Think about it, if he calls that genocide then maybe that will impact some fascist plan set in the future. Just a thought. However this does demonstrate that he is an ass kisser, he didnt want to alienate the people who killed the Armenians. AFT

Astronaut says Aliens Exist

The story: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,517421,00.html

I know this is not my usual sort of news, but it's pretty amazing to hear someone who has actually been in space say it. For the record I have always known of their existence, this is not news to me, the important part is that this Astronaut is challenging the Obama administration to reveal the truth. Will it work? No, silly, our government likes to keep us stupid and consuming, God only knows what kinda "chaos" could come if the people knew the truth. They exist, the evidence is overwhelming, if you take a serious look at it and don't go into it thinking that everybody who see's UFOs is nuts. The Truth is Out There! AFT

Earth Day

Happy Earth Day!

Dear Earth, thank you for hosting our existence, thank you for life. We are sorry if we hurt you in anyway. I think we fail to understand your cycles and systems, you are far grander than our tiny minds can comprehend. We will do our best to be respectful of you, but in exchange we would like you to stop killing us with your earthquakes and tornados. Please stop shifting around your ice caps it makes our scientist nervous, and gives some nutball politicians an excuse to use fear to control people. You could help us out by sending earthquakes and stuff to our enemies, nah just kidding. I would like to ask if you could help us get rid of diseases, especially those nasty flesh eating ones. I'm sure you are upset with us for burning the rainforest, for pollution, for strip mining, and for hippies. But we are upset with you too, for poisonous snakes, spiders, disease, famine, natural disasters, and volcanos. However there is hope, maybe if you give a little, like making spiders extinct, then we will make the hippies extinct in exchange. AFT

Vent Time Round 2... DING!

Ok, let me just start off with saying that Miss California is a patriot, she spoke out about what she believes in, and that scummy Perez Hilton got pissed because she didn't kiss his ass and lie to earn favor. Sorry Perez, but most Americans are against it, and all the rainbow protesting in the world is not gonna get us to give up the sanctity of marriage. A marriage is between a man and a woman for the purpose of raising a family and procreation. Two gay people cannot do that. I respect their right to be gay, but keep your gayness to yourself and stop trying to force it on us. You do not have the right to marriage.

Obama and the Obamabots, are now opening the door to prosecuting members of the Bush administration for torturing enemy combatants. That is bullshit, fuck off you bleeding heart bastards, those fuckers were organized for the purpose of killing innocent people. I say keep Gitmo and allow torture of terrorists, they don't have any fucking problem torturing and beheading Americans, and they take pride in sending us the video tapes. Fuck Em! and Fuck You if you wanna prosecute Americans for doing their jobs. The Geneva convention does not apply to terrorist groups, only soldiers employed in a national army.

Obama wants to talk about nuclear disarmament. NO! We are not giving up our nukes, forget it. The world just becomes more and more dangerous every day. Giving up our backbone defense would be treasonous. Somebody tell Obama that he can be prosecuted too. Tell those nutjobs like Ahmadinejad and his ilk, that we will do everything we can to stop them from getting nukes. Then remind them what Mutually Assured Destruction means. Even if you do underhandedly get a nuke, you might get the chance to use it, but you wont live to see the results. If Obama won't pull the trigger on you, there are lots of Americans who can get together quick to overthrow him and then annihilate you.

Let's figure a way to get our asses out of Chinese hands, we have to pay them back and real soon, because they are going to collect on the debt. We could get all the school kids of America to make macaroni pictures, and then send the mac art to the Chinese. Here ya go paid in full, macaroni art is worth more than the dollar. Good luck with your communism.

Oh well maybe tomorrow will bring some news worthy of my full attention, Peace and God Bless. AFT

Vent Time!

No one in Washington accepts the blame, Obamabots blame everything on Bush, and Bush blamed it all on Clinton, and this goes back through history. I have friends, repubs, and dems, that are always getting pissed at me, for speaking my mind. They defend whatever party they've sold their souls to, to the death. They think I am un-American, because I can't support one side or the other for the benefit of the country. I tell them neither side has ever been beneficial to the people. I have a friend who I honestly admit is militant, he is wanting me to draft a new Declaration of Independence, only this one will be independence from a corrupt government. He also wants me to rewrite the constitution. I told him that I support the Constitution, maybe not all amendments, but in general the bill of rights needs to remain intact. If anything I would add to the Constitution, I would change the 2nd Amendment to say that everyone has the right and responsibility to own a gun and carry it openly, without waiting periods and background checks. Because we all know that criminals don't get their guns through legal means, that is just making it harder for an honest American to get a gun. Not to mention the impact it would have on criminals and other unfreindly governments, nobody is gonna fuck with America if everybody has a gun. 1st Amendment should stand just the way it is. I've been bouncing a really radical idea around in my head, contemplating repercussions, if any. My radical idea, a new freedom should be added to the Bill of Rights, the right to die. Yeah I know I am losing readers already, oh well fuck em. I believe that the ultimate freedom is to choose how and when you die. We have a right to life that means on the same scale is the right to die. The ULTIMATE FREEDOM, think about it. I'm sure the medical profession is against this one, after all they would lose billions they make by keeping people alive. We all need to face the fact that we will all die, there is no escape, so I want to choose how and when. Ok heres another idea that will scare off my readers. How about unlimited freedom, that means that I can do any damn thing I want with my property, my body, my life as long as what I do doesn't infringe on anyone elses liberties or put anyone else in danger. Thats a really unpopular idea, but maybe someone like me needed to say it. So our prisons won't be filled to capacity with potheads, and other minor criminals. There'll be plenty of room for the murderers and child molesters. Heres another really fuckin crazy idea, lets create Ellis Island South, one spot on the Mexican border where people can immigrate through, the rest of the border walled up with orders to our border patrol to shoot on sight anyone attempting to cross the border illegaly, because if we give them a legitimate means of immigration only the criminal element will try to cross illegaly. Here's the details, let's say Juan and his family want to come to America, they go stand in line at the spot, when they walk in, the first thing they must do is have their baggage searched for contraband, then every member of Juans family has to swear allegiance to the United States, and they must sign a paper stating they surrender their citizenship and all loyalty to Mexico. They are added to the social security registry, issued soc sec cards and Juan and all of his sons who are over 18, are enlisted to serve in the U.S. Army for a minimum of two years. Now attached to Ellis Island South on the American side will be an employment office. The family members that were not enlisted in the service get to find jobs and pay taxes like the rest of America. Those in the service will of course send their pay home for their family. After two years of service Juan and all his sons who were over 18 are issued their citizenship papers and thanked for their service. Now Juan and the boys are on their way home to become good tax paying citizens, whilst those who went to the job office are now getting their citizenship papers earned for them by Juan and sons. Of course we will make sure that they are fully indoctrinated and naturalized, and make damn certain they know their rights and the law. Why I crafted this idea is because if it weren't for immigrants most of the anti-immigration assholes today wouldn't be here, if my grandfather hadn't immigrated to this country, then this America loving patriot wouldn't be here.
Let's talk about taxes now, here is my "radical" point of view. If we all pay a sales tax, then you cannot add a tax on top of that, no fat tax, no tobacco tax, no anything on top of sales tax. You cannot tax me extra because I like doughnuts. Let's get rid of that estate tax and any and all inheritance or lottery winnings or gift tax, no more taxation on what grandpa left for you. The government keeps slamming us with taxes to pay for their crap, but out of respect to the tax payers the government should do everything to cut costs, to scrap all the pork and ridiculous shit our tax dollars should not be paying for. No more private jets for senators and reps, no more spending tax dollars on their vacations. Here's a crazy one, take away pay from all elected officials, because they are already rich enough. Take away their right to vote themselves pay raises. Let's get rid of the antiquated electoral college, it is obvious they don't vote how we would. A popular vote will truly represent the people. The penalty for an elected official proven to have been accepting kickbacks from lobbyists, should be death. Yeah capital punishment. Maybe then they will serve us and not be greedy. Heres a nutty idea that will lose me some conservative friends, and probably make me popular with the liberals, even tho I dislike them. Nationalized Healthcare, I know crazy, I've thought long and hard on this one. Here is my argument for it, we need it, if we had it then maybe all our jobs wouldn't have left the country because they could'nt afford to pay us and give us health insurance. Not to mention that with this comes an "entity" thats sole job is making sure that the health care industry doesn't milk the govt for money as they do now.

Journalist Convicted in Iran

Heres the latest on this story: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,517085,00.html

Ahmadinejad told prosecutor to make sure that journalist gets full rights for defense. Wow, I wonder what kind of rights you have in Iran. Surely not the same rights as we have here in America. I hope and pray for the best possible outcome for this woman and her family. I have to wonder, didn't she expect something like this to happen? C'mon it's Iran, I would never go there, but if I did I would expect to be charged with spying. If your an American citizen and you go to Iran, you are taking your life in your own hands. Even if you have dual citizenship. Especially for a woman, as we all know how they treat women over there. I pray for her freedom. AFT

Napolitano Fears the People

This article: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/first100days/2009/04/19/napolitano-veterans-targets-right-wing-extremist-recruiters/

I'm sure you've all heard about this one, so I'll just give my "radical" opinion. I think what DHS is saying is that, there is a growing movement of individuals who are tired of the rhetoric, tired of misrepresentation, and they are uniting and talking about revolution, they are afraid of us. They know that the Veterans have been mistreated by our government, and that the people who will form the militias that may start the revolution will be made up of Vets, who have experience fighting. So they are afraid that us "extremists", have experienced soldiers on our side and that if we really wanted to, we could take down the corrupt leadership. This is a sign they are shaking in their shoes at the potential of a revolution. Good. Maybe their own fear will make them listen to us. Maybe fear of revolution will turn them around and make them serve the people. So Janet Napolitano is dead on, warning police agencies that the vets are targets for right wing extremists. But what Janet doesn't know is, that the "extremists" are just regular Americans, many of them vets. On a side note, she should not have said, "right wing extremists" because many of us who are patriotically angry are not republicans. If the democrats could see that this is not partisan, then they would really really be afraid. AFT

Got Time?

Waste it here: http://www.glennbeck.com/content/program/beck-talks lots of videos, the one about the lack of media coverage at the tea parties is good. Lots of plugs for Goldline Inc. too.
