One Step Closer

"U.S. Likely Taking Majority Ownership of GM" That's the headline and it's being done by a 24 member task force whose experience equals zero. But the real story here is not General Motors. Rather, it is clear evidence that we Obama is one step closer to a socialistic nation. The auto makers, the banks, the insurance industry, Fanny and Freddie, etc. all can be summed up with one little, yet incredibly big word "SOCIALISM."

The Democrats can call it whatever they want...a rescue plan, revitalization, job growth, mortgage relief, credit card relief, ad nauseum. But it is socialism, plain, pure and simple. There is no other word for it. Wikipedia says this: "Socialism refers to any one of various economic theories advocating state or cooperative ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods....." When the United States government, which is supposed to be of the people and by the people and for the people, takes majority ownership of private business and industry what would you call it if not socialism?

And then the announcement of a woman to become the next Supreme Court justice who says openly that her opinions and decisions will be influenced by race and gender. Is this not just one more example of what the Obama administration is trying to do? I think a woman on the Supreme Court, whether anglo, latino, asian or black is wonderful. But when anyone, male or female openly states that race and gender will play a big part in their decisions, that person should not be allowed to sit on that bench, or any judicial bench.

Folks, we conservatives only have a very short time to rally the forces and give the people back their government. We have Senatorial and House elections next year and right now we look like a bunch of confused children lost in a department store. We better get over that and quick. You touch a hot store once it's an accident and a learning experience. Touch it twice and shame on us. We haven't learned much out of our defeats. We are dazed and confused. We are unorganized and the Grand Old Party isn't very grand right now. We let the liberal Democrats take control of the mayor's offices in our two largest cities. Shame on us! It's not just about fund raisers, and banners and "meet and greets." It's about rolling up our sleeves and getting to work. It's not to late yet, but to use the phrase with no insult intended, the fat lady is getting ready to sign. We best make sure it's the right song and not our funeral dirge.

Write, not only your representatives but also as many as you can. Volunteer to help get the grass roots growing. Get excited, get involved......GET OUR COUNTRY BACK before it's too late.

God Bless You and God Bless America!
