Thank You Mitt Romney

Just a simple thank you for being there to stand up for America like our President won't.

For those who don't know what is going on.... the Libya consulate was attached and our Ambassador was killed. Being that the information was being made public via the news media.... our empty shirt and empty chair was absent..... so Mitt put forth a statement about how we do not stand for this kind of thing in this country because one of our founding principles free speech and freedom of religion

This event was reported by the media as a protest over a movie with some disparaging words about a Muslim and the radical nature of some factions within that religion.  Since it all started on 9-11, it is easy to see that the media is using some little insignificant piece of video footage to bring spotlight off of the lack of this current administration to protect and project a iron fist of power.

The first thing that happened as reported by the media... an apology was given to those who were supposedly upset.  It is about time we get someone in the White House on Pennsylvania Ave. who knows how to stand up for our ideals and quit apologizing for our greatness.

To those in the media who are attacking Mitt for making a statement when he did.... how is it that you can report so much and then attack someone for standing up for America using the info you are reporting.... you are reporting it as fact... is it or not?  Maybe you should keep your own mouth shut until the facts are known and the correct statements can be made.... oh.... that is right... they might me different than what you want to report then.  TOO BAD.

Thank you Mitt....

The Prez.

Political Code Words

The Democrats have had their say and depicted as usual the Republicans as a bunch of hate filled right wingers who are out to take your money and work you like a slave.

I have heard them accuse Republicans of using racist code words like opportunity and work, so when I heard Bill's speech, I understood where it was coming from. They are very familiar with code words and hidden meanings because they use them constantly in their language.  To most, they are platitudes and meaningless phrases, but they are code words that carry boat loads of meaning.
 
Though Bill is the Ronald Reagan of the Democrat party and knows how to work the emotions of the crowd, it is all about feelings and what sounds good.  What kind of country do you want to live in?  Bill's words, "do you want a winner take all, your on your own type of society?"  or "do you want a county of shared opportunities and shared responsibility, a we are all in this together society?"  Sounds like a stark contrast... you are on your own, or in this together.  In reality it is so different.  Why?  Because of the code words.

The word, "shared" is code word for socialist, big government.  If you have to share, who determines what is and isn't shared.  What is your fair share?  You may feel your share should be more. It won't be up to you to determine that. It will be determined by a bureaucracy that has you plugged into their formula and what you get to keep is set by someone else.

Shared opportunities?  What does that mean? To many it is being able to create and do things that bring in income.  Being in business for yourself is one opportunity, or just being able to have a job and take home your earnings is a wonderful opportunity.  In some countries the corruption abounds and there is no law that will lift its hand to stop the gangs and bullies who threaten you on your way home after a good days work with pay in your pocket.

It means if you have a profitable business you must share it with others... you can't keep the profits for yourself... you pay your taxes for being productive so those who are not productive in society can have a share of your productivity.  Remember the "spreading the wealth around" comment? OweBomb's words to Joe the plumber in Ohio during his '08 campaign. Shared responsibilities? Your fair share of the responsibility of taking care of others. Sounds loving and compassionate right?

What we need to do is to start using these code words in context with the real meanings to destroy their connection to the socialist leftist agenda. 

In American, the opportunity is the American Dream. Speak of it that way.  Not like OweBomb in his State of the Union address calling it the American Promise.  Think about all the millions trying to get into this country to take advantage of the American Dream.... what an opportunity.  Think about a person who develops an idea into a business. The process of taking an idea into production is a long expensive process causing many to mortgage or sell some of their most prized possessions to make it happen.  Before it gets to production, it needs to be market tested. Will it have a marketable value? Is it user friendly? Is it economically feasible to put into production, transport it, stock it and sell it for a profit?

So, where does the word shared come in?  In the free enterprise system there is a lot of sharing going on. Remember the first thing that happened?  Someone had an idea and put together some money to create and test the product.  Money spent means there was something purchased.  Money was shared with someone, they shared their property.  It was a fair trade, a fair exchange. As the product moves through the channels, money is shared with all it comes in contact with.  Every person who works for the company that supplied a piece of that product or helped in the marketing, transportation of or ringing up the sale of it shares in the profits of that product. The gardener, window cleaner, maintenance man, janitor, secretary, kitchen help, warehouse forklift driver, truck drivers, and every little delivery truck scurrying around the country bringing that product to it's destination of usefulness.  Just think of all the lives that product touches... shares it's profits with along the way. The more products we create, the more people involved in bringing it to you.  We in America appreciate every one of them. Every effort had a reward. It put bread on the table and a roof over the head of a person or a family.  It is the American Dream to own that roof, the car in the driveway and anything else we want to put under that roof.

The American people are some of the most generous charitable people on the face of the earth.  We send billions around the world caring people who do not have the ability to provide for themselves.  We have set up a system with in the United States to take care of those who are not able and we give millions to charities that provide services, research & development to causes yet unprofitable.  All of this is on the backs of the most fortunate of America.  The less fortunate of America have the best conditions and opportunities before them of any country on the face of the earth.  This doesn't mean we as conservatives believe we can't do better.... we know we can, but it isn't by creating a bureaucracy to provide it... it is by offering more opportunities to those who need them and still providing that safety net for those who can't.

 What is the responsibility of the shared responsibility?  In American it is being a productive member of society.  Productivity means giving something for what you get.  There are many that can't give enough to society to receive what it takes to live.  As a conservative republican I understand that. There are  agencies that have been created to take care of those people.  Those people need the benefits they receive. Those benefits however are not earnings, they are benefits.

This is just a brief overview of where this subject can go.... hopefully it can reach the campaign headquarters of the Republican Party so they can incorporate into their language.
