The Real Romney And Why He Is Running For President.

Mitt Romney is a good man...he is also a rich man, a super rich man. He is a great father, he is a great husband, he was a great missionary and he is a great leader for the Latter Day Saints (LDS) Church. Mitt Romney is a good man...if he didn't send your job overseas that is. I'm sure there are a few people who will not think he is a good man for that very reason.

That said, the question is why is Mitt running for the Presidency? That very answer is what will be the greatest divider of the conservative vote in the coming election. He is not running for the office for any of the reasons of previous Presidents, he is running to bring to fruition a prediction, a pet project, a whim of the founder of the LDS Church. He does not need the Presidency...or want it, I think.

To anyone who believes in God, the only thing bigger than the world and its affairs is...God. When a person has become what we term a member of the one percent, there are not many things that they have not bought, seen or experienced. They have lived in or owned mansions, traveled to all the exotic places that are off-limits to those of us with limited finances. In short, the world becomes a lot smaller that it feels to you and I.

In ones quest to still feel that there is something yet undiscovered and new to this privileged group, as well as to be true to what they religiously believe, they naturally look toward God. This is what I think Romney is thinking about, in his quest for the White House. He has denied in the past that he is trying to fulfill the prophecy, as quoted here in the Salt Lake Tribune,  which makes me believe all the more that this is his real reason...after all, all politicians lie and hide their true reasons, right?

His goal is much bigger than the White House, which to him, is incidentally a 'little house on the prairie' that he can demolish and rebuild many times over with elevators for his cars of course. His reason in running for the office is religious in his eyes, in my eyes it is just crazy. 

Having the President's office is just a tool, for him to climb to the top of his Church, to make him a god among men...in the Mormon church that is and possibly to reserve his place in Mormon heaven. After all, why else would a man who straps a dog to the roof of his car, want to help the less fortunate than him. His non-remorseful actions of that incident has shown us what he really thinks of those he considers as lesser...including his own dog.

The office is just a prize to this rich man, but in that same breath, it is also a prize that the LDS church has been rumored to have had its eyes on for more than a century, since 1844 to be exact. The LDS organization is said to have ordained this path, this 'prophesy,' for the Mormon church to fulfill and it now rests in the arms of Mitt to bring to fruition...a fact they too have denied, in the above Salt Lake Tribune article.

We have seen the misconduct of Pedophile priests and the like in religious circles and the LDS  church has itself had a less that stellar record, with its checkered past of the promiscuity of their members having many wives, their view of contemptuously holding the black population as lesser than equals...this leads me to be suspicious of the LDS church and what they deny.

This AI article explains... "Mitt Romney has been groomed for the Presidency. He has been known as the shining star of the Mormon Church and he is thought to be destined to carry out the wishes of the very man who started the Latter Day Church, that being Joseph Smith jr. Smith ran for President in 1844, as an Independent commander in chief of an ‘army of God’ advocating the overthrow of the U.S. government in favor of a Mormon-ruled theocracy. Smith was assassinated before he could realize his dream of becoming President."

"We were taught that America is the Promised Land,”... "The Mormons are the Chosen People. And the time is now for a Mormon leader to usher in the second coming of Christ and install the political Kingdom of God in Washington, D.C."

In the LDS church's view, all other religions and all other churches of Christianity are false or misguided and the only true path to God is the LDS version. This view is a black eye for Catholics, Evangelicals, Anglicans, Baptists and all the other christian denominations (more than 40,000 worldwide), who will now be forced to take a back seat to the LDS nation if this prediction is realized. This will be the 'proof' to the Mormons that the LDS doctrines are the truth and the traditional churches will be stymied in their control of the vast and also the financially lucrative religious market.

There is a secret fight brewing within Christian circles, a modern 'war of the worlds' being stirred among the pews and behind the alters of Christendom. It has been said in those circles that many conservative voters would rather stay home than vote for Mitt Romney.…as this video shows. This video shows that the LDS church is considered a cult in traditional Christian circles and does not embrace true Biblical principles but have in fact made up their own doctrine.

The coming elections will pit traditional religion against the 'new wave' young religion of Mr. Smith Jr. The LDS makes no bones about whose religious doctrine is right; theirs is. Romney's passion and purpose is more to further church doctrine than win the office to help the American people (remember his dog). Romney's motives must and will be questioned in the coming months.

Donald Trump Shuts Down Sean Hannity, Nixes Ryan Budget.

Sean Hannity yet again displayed his lack of professionalism and pre show preparation by inviting Donald trump to his radio show on Wednesday April 11 2012 without doing the proper pre-show prep needed for the segment. This resulted in the Donald speaking the truth without Sean being able to cage his comments in a shroud of mystery, confusion and half-truth, as he usually does to his guests. This obviously went unnoticed by his listeners, the majority of whom have been shown to be low information Fox viewers.


The interview went downhill when Hannity asked the Donald what he thought about the Ryan budget plan only to hear the Donald truthfully say that the Ryan plan is just insane. The Donald did attempt to shroud his comment in the guise of it simply being the wrong time to release the plan, while not wholeheartedly putting his support behind the plan. 


Just his reluctance to follow up his comment with full support of the Ryan budget plan shows his true meaning. I have always said that it is not what is shown or said to you that is important, but rather what is hidden from you that holds more value. 


Sean Hannity was definitely caught by surprise and quickly segwayed into letting the Donald do what he really came to do...that is to talk about his growing empire and his new real estate purchases. 


Had Hannity or his staff done something resembling a professional pre-show prep, they would have discovered that Donald Trump had been saying the same thing in public interviews even the day before on CNBC. Incidentally, on that interview with CNBC he also hinted that someone having a hidden Swiss bank account, does suggest a shady deal going on... something he did not want to pursue when asked if Romney's Swiss bank account was an issue.


Hannity tried to cover up the obvious slip on his website by completely omitting the shoddy question and answer segment and instead went straight to the Donald's real estate comment as shown here... "The great Donald Trump joined Sean to share his thoughts on the future of the economy. "I didn't think President Obama was willing to go as far as he did [in blaming President Bush]," began Trump, ...( This is where the Ryan Question is asked and omitted ) ..."The Republicans are going to have to get very smart, very fast.“ "I listen to you,” offered Hannity, “You’ve said to buy real estate and I’m doing that and not putting a dollar in the stock market.” “The greatest thing you can own is real estate,” agreed Trump, “I just bought Doral Country Club, if we have nearly $21 trillion in debt, the best thing you can own is real estate.”


I almost choked from laughing when I heard the interview!!

Remember, it is what they hide from you that deserves some notice to get who they really are...

In God's Eyes, What Republicans Are Doing Is Evil...

It is a good idea to use a measuring stick when we look at anything in life. How would we know how high or low a level something is or how good or bad something or someone is if we don’t compare it to something safe and stable? Well, when it comes to life, we can use God’s eyes to compare or test stuff…and people, to make sure it or they measure up to a standard that is acceptable in modern times, to what we should come to accept from our leaders, from the Companies who employ us and use the Earth’s resources for some type of profit…and even the friends who take us down that long road and leave us there. We have to use God’s eyes, to measure our values.

I write this to compare some of the things that are happening in real time, right now in America, things that we can see. I first look at the Companies that are raping, pillaging and plundering our Earth’s precious and finite resources for the purpose of profit at the expense of the Earth, the environment and the biological ecosystem, flora and fauna that depend on the areas affected, for their very survival. Companies like BP and Exxon Mobil…Chemical companies, Mining companies and companies that use destructive practices like Fracking to get products to sell on the energy markets immediately come to mind. These companies can be called the Merchants of Death, as these companies could use safer more humane ways to get their products without all the wanton waste and destruction…In God’s eyes, that is Evil. 

Next I look at the leaders and in particular the politicians who support these companies and take actions that support these companies against the American people…people who voted for them and who should be their main focus. For the last 60 years or more, it has become commonplace for the Republicans to support these companies, making the companies’ strong-armed ‘will’ felt…like a “cat o’ nine tails” on the backs of the people who work for them and the people who buy their products. We consume their products at the expense of our environment and our children’s futures, as we do not leave a healthy planet for our children to inherit. In God’s eyes…that is evil.

We have seen over the years and indeed more so in recent times, a revamped push by the Republicans to attack and oppress the poor and working class at the behest of the companies in an apparent attempt to squeeze every last drop of blood, sweat and tears from a public that is already reeling from the devastating effects of a Republican recession, caused by the mismanagement of the economy by Republicans and their misguided policies. In Gods eyes…that is evil.

I do not want to convert anyone to one religion or another, I simply want to use the idea of good versus evil to shine a light on all these terrible policies and practices that are thrust upon us by Companies and Politicians… corrupt Republican politicians, whose marriage to these companies and their practices are just unacceptable and downright…evil. 

When men take a stand on policy and ideology that are destructive to the public, we have to look at their actions and the effects of those actions to determine who these men really are inside…are they seeking the interests of the people, the good of the people, or they trying by their actions, to harm the people…the public…you and I…our children?

 When politicians use policies that take away human rights, the rights to proper healthcare, the rights to decent, safe standards and conditions at work, the right to have a living wage that is reflective of the high cost of living, we can see the inside of these men…and in the eyes of God, that is evil. 

You constantly see them attack us in other areas, like the Banking sector, the Health insurance industry, the Military industrial Complex that uses our kids as fodder sent to die in their wars, the apparent ‘War on Women’, their attack on Teachers and our children’s education…  Yes indeed, the Republicans are on the attack, undermining America from within. Don’t be fooled by their words…See them by their actions. In God’s eyes, that is evil.

Sarah Palin Disappoints ...

Sarah Palin was as much a disappointment as many of her detractors hoped and said she would be. For most of her time on the Today Show she was quite the run of the mill anchor...until the subject of the movie Game Change was brought up.

She said that she had not seen the movie, nor would she 'waste' her time to see the movie; a movie of 'lies' she said, but thought Julianne Moore was not good, which unless she is psychic, means she lied again and has seen the movie.

This was a comment that was not missed on 'Morning Joe' and the cast of that show had their laughs with the comment, kicking it around like a soccer ball. 

The Wall Street Journal graciously puts it like this...'

Matt asks her what she thought of Julianne Moore playing her in the recent HBO movie "Game Change."

Palin gives the thumbs down.

Palin says that she didn't watch "Game Change" ("I wouldn't waste my time seeing the movie") but she adds "I do have to admit that Tina Fey has been pretty funny."

As expected, Sarah did not surprise us with her lies about the movie and this put her back in the same box of idiocy she so desperately tries to climb out of. What a shame, I was hoping she would stick with the truth.

Warning...Don't Visit Or Vacation In Florida, They May Shoot You!

The recent shooting of teenager Trayvon Martin in Florida has shone a spotlight on Florida's 'Stand your ground' law. While the shooter has not yet been arrested for the shooting, it is a very volatile issue right now and it is only getting more explosive as each day passes. One can expect a full investigation by the Justice Department and we await the findings with bated breath.


While the circumstances of the shooting will be revealed in the coming days or weeks, I am overcome with anger at the law itself and the willingness of the authorities to sign this monstrosity into law knowing that there will be many unintended consequences; obviously this would have given rise to many criminal shootings of innocents.


Florida is well known as a prime Tourist destination and I am surprised that the large Theme Parks; Disney and Universal in particular, situated in that state, would not have put enough pressure on Jeb Bush's administration, to influence him to not sign this into law. I dare say we now have another Bush with innocent blood on his hands. 

Mother Jones reports... 'Florida also passed a law permitting residents to keep guns in their cars at work, against employers' wishes. Florida also makes it easy to plead self-defense in a killing. Under then-Gov. Jeb Bush, the state in 2005 passed a broad "stand your ground" law, which allows Florida residents to use deadly force against a threat without attempting to back down from the situation.'

'Many readers have asked whether, given the 911 recordings, a case against Zimmerman would be easier than most homicides in which "self-defense" is cited by a defendant. In Florida, the answer probably is no: The courts' interpretation of the stand-your-ground law has been extremely broad—so broad that, to win an acquittal, a defendant doesn't even have to prove self-defense, only argue for it, while to win a conviction the prosecution has to prove that self-defense was impossible.

Numerous cases have set the precedent in Florida, with the courts arguing that the law "does not require defendant to prove self-defense to any standard measuring assurance of truth, exigency, near certainty, or even mere probability; defendant's only burden is to offer facts from which his resort to force could have been reasonable." When a defendant claims self-defense, "the State has the burden of proving beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant did not act in self-defense." In other words the burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt never shifts from the prosecution, so it's surprisingly easy to evade prosecution by claiming self-defense.'

Unfortunately there are 17 more states with similar laws, including Alabama, Arizona, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Washington State, and New Hampshire.

Dominion of New York reports...Reports of justifiable homicides tripled after the law went into effect, according to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. Last year, twice a week, on average, someone’s killing was considered warranted.

The self-defense law — known as “stand your ground” — has been invoked in at least 93 cases with 65 deaths, a St. Petersburg Times review found.

 A 2010 study by theTampa Bay Times found that "justifiable homicides" had tripled in the state since the law went into effect. 

I cannot stress enough the risk you face when visiting Florida and these other states who seem to think this law does more good than harm. It is important to remember that people have been shot by homeowners just for knocking on the door to ask directions... asking directions is something frequently done by tourists in Florida and if the person just thinks you are a threat, he can legally shoot you. 

Were I to paint this issue with a broad brush, I would suggest that this is yet another foolish law enacted by Republicans, but for now I will just focus on Jeb Bush and the innocent blood he has on his hands... no surprise there...

Red States Are The Real Welfare States

States receiving the most federal funding per tax dollar paid:
1. New Mexico: $2.63
2. West Virginia: $2.57
3. Mississippi: $2.47
4. District of Colombia: $2.41
5. Hawaii: $2.38
6. Alabama: $2.03
7. Alaska: $1.93
8. Montana: $1.92 
9. South Carolina: $1.92
10. Maine: $1.78


Contrary to popular belief, those who make the most noise and complain the most about Federal spending and the programs said spending support, are in fact the same people who collect those Federal dollars and who coincidentally don't want to give up the programs. Their states; the RED ones... receive more per dollar, than they give "As a recent New York Times article documents, even as fiscally conservative lawmakers complain about deficit spending, their constituents don't want to give up the Social Security checks, Medicare benefits, and earned income tax credits that provide a safety net for the struggling middle class."


The secret is not so secret after all, many Red states are really parasites and gold-diggers when it comes to collecting Federal dollars even though they are the most vociferous about government spending. MotherJones.com posts some wonderful maps that highlight these bloodsucking states who want you to believe that they are really against expanding the government spending that they crow about. Empty vessels really do make the most noise.


MotherJones adds..."Of the 22 states that went to McCain in 2008, 86 percent received more federal spending than they paid in taxes in 2010. In contrast, 55 percent of the states that went to Obama received more federal spending than they paid in taxes. Republican states, on average, received $1.46 in federal spending for every tax dollar paid; Democratic states, on average, received $1.16."


Candidate Ron Paul has said that he is happy to see natural disaster victims go without federal help, as was done in his days 100 years ago; (when he was alive, this author believes he is in fact a zombie, thereby void of human feelings) something that many conservatives echo...until they are the victims of a Tornado, flood, or hurricane and consequently become the unwilling, kicking and screaming(wink wink) recipients of FEMA assistance. 


It is also not a secret that when Republicans are in office Reagan, Bush Sr., Bush jr, they spend the most and run up the most debt, spending like drunken sailors, knowing that when the Democrats hold office, the cry from the Republicans would be a deafening one, to reduce federal spending. They are nothing but hypocrites and downright liars.


Conservatives have well been known for voting against their own interest and unknown to them, if they are successful in voting-in their conservative political figures, the first programs to be cut or whittled down are the same ones that these conservative states depend on to feed their citizenry. Apparently conservative voters have not yet connected the dots to figure out that Democratic states who are paying more and getting back less are in fact the ones responsible for    supporting the real welfare states...the Red states. 


In other words the Republican and Conservative citizenry owe their very existence to the Democrats they pretend to hate so much... the Democrats who put food on their Conservative tables and who keep the roof over their Republican heads. 


This reminds me of the old saying, 'Be careful what you wish for' and I for one would have loved my hard earned taxes to go to some more deserving Blue states, but the good books all say we should be charitably to the least of us and their actions do show they are the least of us...when it comes to their willingness to hate others in one way or another, for one religious reason or another...and their gullibility and nearsightedness while listening to and believing the lies of their Republican politicians, who tout that a fictitious 'freedom' is worth depriving women, immigrants and the downtrodden of the dignity and respect they deserve.

Can We Finance An Israel-Iran War?

President Barack Obama said to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee on Sunday March 4th : “I will not hesitate to use force when it is necessary to defend the United States and its interests.” President Obama was presenting as strong an assurance as he can to the Pro-Israeli lobbying body known as AIPAC, against the harsh rhetoric being thrown at his administration by many including the republican presidential candidates.

It is no secret that the Republican party and its cohorts clearly want an Israeli strike against Iran sooner rather than later, as that could bolster their support in the upcoming presidential elections.

Everyone agrees that all countries have the right to defend itself and Israel is at that gate right now, facing a growing threat of a Nuclear Iran. There are many moving parts in a conflict involving a Nuclear Iran and the ramifications of a possible attack by Israel. If Israel attacks Iran, one of the concerns is that neighboring countries will be pulled into the fracas and will be forced to choose sides. Those decisions will be weighed down not only by the politics and economics of the issue but also the religious implications of Muslim countries possibly opposing one of the same religion; that being Iran.

Countries choosing sides will have a devastating effect on the Oil market as the region will become unstable, resulting in the rise of oil prices. The resulting higher cost of fuel will plunge the world into panic and some countries will see their recessions turns into depressions. The ripple effect will not baud well for the growing hunger of developing “BRIC” countries… they being Brazil, Russia, India and China.
We can expect the ‘BRIC” countries to secure larger amounts of oil at any price for their use, leaving a financially unstable America in an increasingly worse position than we are right now, as we fight to recover from our own recession and unemployment woes.


President Obama pressed on in his address that while he “Has Israel’s back,” he welcomes the use of patience by Israel, allowing time so that the strong sanctions imposed on Iran’s central bank by the US and its European allies can take effect, forcing them to a less aggressive path in their pursuit of highly enriched Uranium and possibly a Nuclear weapon. This is something that Israel does not look upon favorably as their window of attack may be compromised, the toughest sanctions are due to go into effect in the coming summer.


As expected, the devilishly cunning republican presidential candidates have already begun to stir the pot of doubt and dismay about President Obama’s approach to the issue and what his ‘Muslim loving’ intentions may really be. This being an election year they are throwing everything they can at him, in an effort to cast shadows of doubt on him and his electability to a second term.


Having already lost the debate on the contraceptive issue, the republicans are now trying to beat the war drums between Israel and Iran in a desperate attempt to gather their forces against an Obama re-election. 
The AP reports…”
An AIPAC spokesman, Patrick Dorton, said the group welcomed Obama’s remarks and “his strong resolve to work with Israel to solve the Iranian challenge.”
Obama’s speech quickly turned into Sunday campaign fodder.


Romney, in Georgia, returned to his claim that “if Barack Obama is re-elected, Iran will have a nuclear weapon.”
Santorum said, “The best thing that could happen to world markets is an Iran without a nuclear weapon, and a new Iranian regime, neither of which (Obama) is doing very much about to make happen.”


In comments before Obama’s speech, Gingrich said he saw no evidence Obama would do what it took to keep Iran from getting nuclear weapons. “They talk and the Iranians build,” Gingrich said. “We’re being played for fools.”


It is expected that Iran will not go down without a fight if attacked by Israel and will use all means at their disposal to react. This may ensure their counter attack on Israel and on American troops in the Persian Gulf…something I think they are not afraid to do. This will force the US to commit troops and equipment to the fight, amounting to untold billions of dollars in cost, as we have seen in Iraq and Afghanistan.


The one question that needs to be asked now is how will the US pay for a war between Israel and Iran? Will the republicans agree to borrow Billions from foreign sources? Will they renew their efforts to strip or cut social and other programs to pay the humongous costs another war will demand? What will they do?
