What is the Media hiding?

Posted by Sandra Lea Wise on Thursday, October 09, 2008 2:07:23 PM
Radio ads exposing the real Sen. Barack Obama as a Slum Lord and a far left-wing radical have been released by the National Black Republican Association (NBRA) and are being aired in battleground states. Obama, a Slum Lord?

In these last three weeks leading up the election, we must do everything to get out the message about the real Obama. The MSM is going “all out” and promoting the idea that Obama and the Democrats have a big lead over McCain/Palin and the Republicans. It is demoralizing to turn on Brit Hume, and hear the “all stars” suggest that McCain has already lost, due to the economy.

We must not let the pundits take away our vote! We must remember that even the exit polls were wrong in 2004. Until the actual votes were counted, every news organization thought that we had a President Kerry. Then the voters spoke and it wasn’t even close.

The information on Obama’s past is being shrouded by the media. The very media that hounded Bush in 2000 about his indiscretions as a youth (possible cocain use and a DWI,) never asks Obama a single question about his youth and use of drugs, or his allegiances with unsavory America haters. No one but a liberal Democrat would get away with not releasing information about his College years. Apparently even Obama’s Thesis is nowhere to be found.

 If we allow the socialist media to win this election, then what happens to America will be our fault. We might as well turn off talk radio and shut down the blogs because the MSM will have won. Our vote is our voice.

Why the Democrats need to win.

Posted by Sandra Lea Wise on Sunday, October 05, 2008 12:50:55 PM
Listening to the debate last week and the Sunday talk shows today, it suddenly became very clear to me why the Democrats need to win this election.

First, we are finally winning in Iraq.  That is unacceptable.  We need to immediately pull the troops out so that we can send them into Darfur, Afghanistan and Pakistan, to rebuild those countries and create Democracies there.  We simply chose the wrong war.  Iraq should have remained under the control of Saddam Hussein who was a peaceful man and posed no threat to his neighbors or to the world in terms of weapons of mass destruction. 

Second, the economy is in trouble.  Pelosi, Reid and the Democrats have shown how bipartisanship should work.  They reached across the isle to President Bush and Republicans, demonstrating how their leadership is right for America.  Also, with Obama as President they will conduct the right investigations into what went wrong with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.  They will continue to investigate Palin and Bush for firing certain personnel, which caused the entire economy to collapse and shows the depth of corruption and cronyism of Republicans. 

Third, our health care system is not up to par with the rest of the world.  We need to create more entities like Fannie and Freddie to make sure that everyone gets affordable health care.  The housing crisis should be the model for this legislation.  That way all health insurance companies in the country can fail, leaving the tax payers to pick up the bill for everyone’s health insurance. 

On November 4, make sure that you get out and vote for the only people capable of bringing America down to the level of the rest of the world.  It simply isn’t fair that we should be the most powerful country in the world.  Let’s give someone else a chance for a CHANGE. 

Maybe Iran can pick up the slack.  Mahmoud wants to be our friend.  He spoke at the United Nations and told the world that we are all heathens and don’t worship the one true God.  He could be the World’s Minister instead of the world’s worst enemy.  We haven’t been listening.  He won’t blow us all away if we convert to his religion and renounce our sinful ways. 

That is why we need Barack and the Democrats to lead us into the most peaceful and wonderful times in which we can hold hands with our enemies and admit that we have been wrong to try to defeat them.  They will finally love us!!!

Sometimes it’s hard to be a Republican woman.

Posted by Sandra Lea Wise on Sunday, September 28, 2008 6:25:21 PM
It’s really hard to believe that some conservatives are now calling for Palin to step down.  What on earth are they thinking?

I must say, it is pretty discouraging to be a Republican these days.  Is it even possible to defeat the entire media that is campaigning for Obama and attacking McCain and Palin non-stop?  Where are the reports on Obama and his corrupt friends in Chicago?  Where are the reports on Obama’s non voting record and his lack of experience?  Where are the reports on Ole Biden’s slip-ups?   Where are the reports on the corruption of the Democrats who blocked reforms that Bush and McCain had tried to get regarding Fannie and Freddie?  Where are the smears and jokes about Pelosi?  No, she’s suddenly the heroine who got “the deal” through Congress. 

I can only imagine how Sarah must be feeling at this point.  She had a great life in Alaska and was an extremely popular governor.  Now she is the butt of every stupid joke and the media is out to get her and apparently succeeding since some conservatives are now having second thoughts.  Where can Sarah Palin go to get her reputation back?

Is anyone out there as disgusted and fed up as I am?

Why do Liberal Democrats fear Palin?

Posted by Sandra Lea Wise on Tuesday, September 23, 2008 3:27:04 PM
The hysteria about Sarah Palin from the Liberal Democrats has reached a frenzy. Many people are trying to explain the reasons for the Palin hatred. lipstick and pittbulls

A local talk show host this morning discussed the issue. Mark pointed out that if the McCain/Palin ticket wins in November, quite possibly in 4 to 8 years the first female POTUS will be sworn in.

The Palin selection by McCain has exposed the media and the Democrat’s true face. It was never about women’s rights, it was only about the liberal agenda. Everything they have espoused about the environment, civil rights, etc., was a facade. It was a way to gain power. Palin threatens everything that the corrupt politicians in Washington (mostly Democrats) have set up for themselves.

If McCain and Palin win, they lose! They will fight to the death to hold on to their corrupt power.

Free Green Cards for 14 million illegal aliens?

Posted by Sandra Lea Wise on Tuesday, September 16, 2008 7:33:32 PM
A couple of weeks ago, I was visiting my newborn niece at the hospital and met a doorman working there who is from Brazil.  He, his wife and two children have been here illegally since 2000.  They have a lawyer who has been working to get them legalized. 

Pedro and I began talking about the fact that I teach Portuguese.  He asked if I could help him.  He said that his lawyer has stated that if he could get a letter from a business, with the assertion that his services were needed and they intended to hire him, that he and his family could be legalized.  He asked me if I could possibly approach the Department where I teach to write such a letter, since he had taught at  several universities in Brazil.  I politely told him that we did not need a Portuguese teacher, so I doubted that I could help.

Yesterday he called me and was extremely excited.  He said that his lawyer had just called to tell him to hold on for a few more months and that everything will be resolved.  The lawyer said that Obama had met personally with hundreds of immigration lawyers and assured them that as soon as he assumes office in January, he will pass reforms that will allow all illegal aliens here now to get their papers with no strings attached.  A free pass for all!

I wonder how many of these illegals are being registered to vote by the Democrats.  Most of them are currently working and have false documents.  These votes could make the difference in the election.

John Fund just came out with a book detailing all of the ways in which the Democrats are planning to steal the election, if it is close.  Will we let them?

Change we can’t believe in!

Posted by Sandra Lea Wise on Saturday, September 13, 2008 1:39:04 PM
Barack Obama speaks passionately about something called "economic justice." He uses the term obliquely, though, speaking in code, socialist code. The following editorial from Investor’s Business Daily is an excellent outline of Obama’s “Change” platform. Barack Obama's Stealth Socialism

On Bill O’Reilly, Obama talked about growing the economy from the bottom up. He said that only 5% of the population will get tax increases. He will redistribute that money to people who already pay no taxes, sending them checks from the government.

The Investor’s Business Daily’s article states: During his NAACP speech, Sen. Obama repeated the term “economic justice” at least four times. "I've been working my entire adult life to help build an America where economic justice is being served," he said at the group's 99th annual convention in Cincinnati. And as president, "we'll ensure that economic justice is served," he asserted. "That's what this election is about." Obama never spelled out the meaning of the term, but he didn't have to. His audience knew what he meant, judging from its thumping approval.

The article continues: "Economic justice" simply means punishing the successful and redistributing their wealth by government fiat. It's a euphemism for socialism. In the past, such rhetoric was just that, rhetoric. But Obama's positioning himself with alarming stealth to put that rhetoric into action on a scale not seen since the birth of the welfare state. In his latest memoir he shares that he'd like to "recast" the welfare net that FDR and LBJ cast while rolling back what he derisively calls the "winner-take-all" market economy that Ronald Reagan reignited (with record gains in living standards for all).
My fellow Americans, this is not “Change we can believe in.” We must reject the Democrat’s old, tired mantra with a new name, “Economic Justice.”

The McCain/Palin ticket is the one that represents “change” in Washington. And that is why the Media and the Democrats are running scared and attacking Palin with a vengeance. It will only get worse in the next weeks.

We must be ready and not fall for the media’s tactics which have worked in the past and kept Republicans from going to the polls. We must win at all levels of government in November. We must speak loudly that socialism is not what we want for America and send our armies of voters out to defeat this.

This is not “Change we can believe in,” this is change we must defeat!

We cannot stand four more years of this!

Posted by Sandra Lea Wise on Sunday, August 24, 2008 2:30:24 PM
In his first speech as the Democrat VP candidate, Biden said, " We cannot stand four more years of this!"  I agree completely.

We cannot stand four more years of Obama, Biden, Pelosi and Reid! 

We cannot stand four more years of not drilling for our own oil!

We cannot stand four more years of blocking the appointment of Judges who don't believe in legislating from the Bench!

We cannot stand four more years of claims that we have lost in Iraq!

We cannot stand four more years of plans for higher taxes on the American people!

We cannot stand four more years of  plans to socialize our health care!

We cannot stand four more years of attacks on Bush and Cheney for defending our country!

We cannot stand four more years of appeasing terrorists and trying to undo the safeguards that have
been put in place to prevent another 9/11!

We cannot stand four more years of big Lawyers and Big Unions standing in the way of reforms which would help our economy
and provide jobs!

We cannot stand four more years of environmentalists dictating our energy policies!

We cannot stand four more years of blocking school choice!

I never thought that I would agree with a Democrat, but Biden hit the nail on the head yesterday.

Should McCain pick a homeless person for VP?

Posted by Sandra Lea Wise on Saturday, August 23, 2008 10:58:00 PM
The Democrats are still counting McCain's houses.  The latest number is ten.   To make up for his abundance of abodes, I think that McCain should pick a VP who does not own a home or even better, someone who is homeless at the moment.  This would be a brilliant choice, as it would provide balance to the ticket and the homeless vote is still up for grabs. 

I'm sure there is a "down and out" Republican somewhere that McCain could pick, who would satisfy the Democrat's claim that John is too rich and prosperous for the job of POTUS.

Volunteers are needed immediately.   Excellent salary.  Home and transportation are included.

Pelosi's radio address signals Democrats are open to offshore drilling. Don't believe her!

Posted by Sandra Lea Wise on Saturday, August 16, 2008 3:24:02 PM
Pelosi's radio remarks today indicated that Democrats are budging on the issue of drilling. She criticized Republicans' "drill only" plan, and said,

"This comprehensive Democratic approach will ensure energy independence which is essential to our national security, will create millions of good paying jobs here at home in a new green economy, and will take major steps forward in addressing the global climate crisis."      Democrats open to offshore drilling

Republican leaders called Pelosi's proposal a ruse, and it certainly is. What we need are Republican majorities once again so that we won't have to go with Pelosi's plan. I know I'm dreaming, but why can't we get out and vote for everyone with an "R" behind their name?

Yes, some of them might not be 100% conservative Republicans, but they are better than 100% liberal Democrats. Once we get strong Republican majorities, then we can quibble about the RINOs and vote them out.

The future of America is at stake. With Democrats in charge, we will become a Third World Country, while China, Brazil, Russia, etc., surpass us!

Rush, I'm kicking you out of the house, for good this time.

Posted by Sandra Lea Wise on Friday, August 15, 2008 1:19:03 PM
I have kicked you out before, but I always took you back. This time you've gone too far with your comments about Elizabeth Edwards. She is not to blame for her husband's cheating. I could have gone along with you about the fact that she knew of his womanizing and stood by him and denied the rumors, while both of them sought higher Office. She lied too, as she campaigned by his side knowing about his lies.

My problem with you is that you are no longer a shining representative of what conservatism stands for. In fact, you have become bloated by your own ego and use language and symbolism that is vulgar, just like your comments about why you think that Edwards sought female companionship outside of his marriage.

You have become an embarrassment, like the relative at the dinner table who talks on and on, and one never know what kinds of things will come out of his mouth. You give the media fodder for their attacks on Republicans while, to quote you, "Those on the other side are in the process of destroying themselves."

It is with regret that I have come to this decision, and I will miss some things about you. We are no longer compatible.

Hasta la vista, Baby.

Martin Luther King, a Republican?

Posted by Sandra Lea Wise on Thursday, August 14, 2008 1:28:55 PM
If you haven't had a chance to read the following article, it is worth taking a few minutes to check it out. It was written by Frances Rice.

"It should come as no surprise that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Republican. In that era, almost all black Americans were Republicans. Why? From its founding in 1854 as the anti-slavery party until today, the Republican Party has championed freedom and civil rights for blacks. And as one pundit so succinctly stated, the Democrat Party is as it always has been, the party of the four S's: Slavery, Secession, Segregation and now Socialism."
Read more

Another interesting paragraph that jumped out at me states: "Democrat President John F. Kennedy is lauded as a proponent of civil rights. However, Kennedy voted against the 1957 Civil rights Act while he was a senator, as did Democrat Senator Al Gore, Sr. And after he became president, John F. Kennedy was opposed to the 1963 March on Washington by Dr. King that was organized by A. Phillip Randolph who was a black Republican. President Kennedy, through his brother Attorney General Robert Kennedy, had Dr. King wiretapped and investigated by the FBI on suspicion of being a Communist in order to undermine Dr. King."

I've never understood why black Americans vote in block for Democrats and apparently this year polls indicate numbers as high as 98% of blacks will vote for Obama. Another shocker is that Colin Powell will possibly endorse Obama for President. Bill Crystal has recently reported on this even though Powell is denying the accuracy of Crystal's sources.

The Democrats and the MSM have done an excellent job of painting Republicans as racists. I am very happy to see the NBRA (National Black Republican Association) working to dispel this ugly stereotype. They are putting up billboards all over the country stating that Martin Luther King Was A Republican. Billboards   

As Republicans we have to do more to educate the public on the history of the Republican Party and it's involvement in the anti-slavery movement.

I did have sex with that woman.

Posted by Sandra Lea Wise on Friday, August 08, 2008 4:55:59 PM
Senator Edwards admits to having had sex with that woman, after denying it during his presidential bids and again recently when he was caught fleeing a hotel at 3 a.m.  

As some have suggested, this should not hurt his chances of being the Vice-Presidential pick for the Democrat Party.  After all, everyone lies about sex.  He didn't want to hurt his wife who has cancer.  He was protecting her and his family.  Isn't that what every married womanizer should do?

Former Clinton adviser, Lanny Davis said, "I feel an overwhelming sense of sadness and sympathy for John Edwards and for Elizabeth Edwards and their family at this horrible intrusion on them during a time of great difficulty."

When Democrats get caught in lies and cheating, it's an intrusion on their private lives and they should be pitied.  We all know what happens to a Republican who happens to tap his foot in a public restroom.    

Edwards admits to affair

Obama fatigue

Posted by Sandra Lea Wise on Thursday, August 07, 2008 2:19:18 PM
Remember when after 8 years of Clinton there was Clinton fatigue? It had been all about Clinton all of the time. 8 years of scandals.  The country had been focused on Clinton everyday. He was the news. And, no matter what Clinton did, the media and the Democrats stood behind him. While scandals and gossip occupied our thoughts, people were planning Sept. 11.

President Bush took the oath of office and went to work. He didn't care about being the hot topic of the day. He wanted to get things done, and wasn't concerned about who got the credit. He didn't get in our faces everyday defending himself from the attacks by the media and the Democrats. He has been harshly criticized by conservatives for not defending himself. But he wasn't like Clinton, it was never about him, it was about the country and Bush went about doing the country's business.

Today, President Clinton is one of the most admired men in the world, and President Bush is the most hated man in the world. Now the question is: What do we really want in a President?

It seems that Obama is another Clinton, even bigger. Once again, he is the news. It's Obama mania all of the time. However, polls have recently indicated that Obama fatigue is setting in. Could it be that Americans are discovering that we don't want the most popular man in the world to be our President?

I hope that the answer is YES!

Wal-Mart and America.

Posted by Sandra Lea Wise on Tuesday, August 05, 2008 3:50:24 PM
It has been extremely hot in Texas and yesterday was no exception, it went up to 108. I had to leave the comfort of my air conditioned home and drive to Wal-Mart because I was completely out of food.

Once there, I remembered that I needed a mattress cover. There weren't many in King size, but I found one for $44.95. That was a little more than I had wanted to spend, but it was nice and thick so I went ahead and bought it.

I was dripping wet after packing all my groceries into the car, and walking the shopping cart back to the cart area. It was a little before noon. When I got home, I unloaded the groceries that needed to go into the refrigerator, and went upstairs to shower and change clothes. I could get the rest of my purchases out of the car later. They wouldn't get too hot in the garage.

Late in the afternoon I went back out and unloaded what was left. Around 7 p.m. I was eating dinner when I thought about the mattress cover. I didn't remember seeing it when I was unloading the rest of my purchases. I rushed into the garage, looked in the trunk of my car and to my utter dismay, it wasn't there. That's when I remembered that I had put it on the lower rack of the shopping cart. Oh, no.... I had left it there in the Wal-Mart parking lot.

I put the rest of my dinner in the refrigerator and rushed back to Wal-Mart, feeling very foolish. I didn't think that it would still be there, but I drove by the carts to look anyway. It wasn't. Then I thought that maybe an employee had come out to pick up the carts soon after I had left, and might have turned it in. I didn't have much hope of that, but I got out of the car, went in and told the person up front what had happened. She said that if anyone had turned it in, it would be at the Customer Service desk.

While I was waiting in line, I told two women who were ahead of me what had happened. The younger one said that she had worked at Wal-Mart and suggested that I could say that I had gotten home without it, not mention that I had left it in the shopping cart, and they would probably let me go get another one.

I told her that I wouldn't feel comfortable lying about it, so we started glancing around to see if we could see it. That's when she spotted something in a shopping cart with other items that had been returned. We went over and looked, and sure enough it was there. I couldn't believe it! As it turned out, a woman had seen the cart with the mattress cover still in it, out in the parking lot, and had taken the cart inside and turned it over to a clerk.

As I was driving home with my mattress cover, I thought about that good woman and said a prayer for her. I couldn't help but have pride in a fellow American who would take the time to do such a thing for someone she didn't even know. Then I realized, she represents the true American. The one who works hard, plays by the rules and shops at Wal-Mart.  People like her are the ones that make America great.  And, they will be voting in November.  Maybe there is hope for the future of our nation after all.

Should we tax the rich to pay for health care for the poor?

Posted by Sandra Lea Wise on Saturday, August 02, 2008 11:27:59 AM
This past week on a local talk station, a black business owner called in and said that he is extremely concerned about Obama's plan for tax increases on the rich. He said, "I've worked hard all these years and finally own my own business and am proud to be making over $250,000. I don't think it's fair that I fork over a big portion of my income to Obama and the Democrats to pay for health care for everyone."

Obama's plan will also raise capital gains taxes. This will affect all of the baby boomers who will be retiring and may want to sell their homes or other assets. Plus, they will begin withdrawing money from their 401(k's,) and under Obama will pay higher tax rates, because they are also considered rich by the Socialist Democrats. These baby boomers have worked hard all their lives. Why should they have to pay more taxes because they were smart enough to invest, realizing that social security won't be enough for them to live on, or might even go broke?

The Democrat's answer to everything is tax increases on the rich. But they don't stop there. They want to roll back the Bush tax cuts, which will result in one of the biggest tax increases in our history. Everyone who pays taxes will be affected, not only the "so called" rich. Our economy recovered from a recession and from the attacks of 9/11 to a large extent due to Bush's tax cuts.

The country seems to be ready for "change" under Obama and the Democrats. The only real change will be our "change" going into their pockets. I wish that everyone could have heard the call from the small business owner. He is not rich. He is the kind of American who works long hours and provides jobs for other Americans. People like him are the people that Hillary, Ted Kennedy, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and Obama, the "real rich," consider rich.

They want more of his money so that they can implement more government programs to create their dream of the perfect Nanny State. They will only succeed if we let them!
