Global Cooling Defeating Global Warming Scandal

I got the Deseret News today (Friday, 10 July 2009) and one of the last parts of Section A was an article entitled "Global cooling evidence should quiet the alarms raised by warmists" by Deroy Murdock.

The first paragraph said, quote: "As cap-and-trade advocates tie their knickers in knots over so-called "global warming," Mother Nature refuses to cooperate. Earth's temperatures continue a chill that began 11 years ago. As global cooling accelerates, global-warmists kick, scream and push their pet theory - just like little kids who cover their ears and stomp their feet when older children tell them not to bother waiting up for Santa Claus on Christmas Eve."

I was taught in my eighth grade Physical Science class with Mr. Fairchild at Sequim Middle School (Sequim, Washington) that the sun goes through an eleven year cycle of releasing less energy and more energy.

Example: Take a small rubber band and twist it until you can't twist it anymore. Then release it. The rubber band will go everywhere.

The same is with the sun. As you twist up that rubber band you are conserving energy but building it up the same energy to be released later. As you twist the rubber band you are releasing very little energy and then as you let it go all the energy is released and produces more energy. (Something close to that point).

The Global Warming crisis is a scandal. It is a way to tax and take control of America.

If I learned this almost a decade ago as a middle school (junior high) student how come scientists with doctorate degrees and post-doctorate degrees can't understand this either?

And on a side note: Prince Charles says we have ninty-six months until the world dies. Well, that is about eighteen months longer then Nobel Prize winner Al Gore gives us.

The 5th of July

On the 4th of July I sat on the side of the road looking down on Thanksgiving Point in Lehi, Utah. Before the fireworks began to commemorate the Independence of the American Colonies I looked around Utah County. I saw fireworks being set off across Utah Lake to the west at Eagle Mountain and Saratoga Springs, more to the south in American Fork and Provo. I sat thinking of what we were celebrating, a declaration to the most powerful government of the 18th Century that the American Colonies would no longer be ruled by King George III and the British Empire, that the American people would be free. I sat there thinking if the meaning behind this celebration had been lost to the American People in our day.

Was it just another day off work? Was it a day to catch up on house chores? Was it a day to be with friends and family with no thought of the Founding Fathers and that with their signatures on the Declaration of Independence they were branding themselves traitors to the Crown and basically signing their own death warrant?

How was it for the Founding Fathers and the Patriots of the American Colonies the day after they signed their fates, on the 5th of July? Were they scared? Were they having doubts of what they had just done?

How was it for us, the American People, the day after this last 4th of July? Was it now just a normal Sunday, a day to get up, get dressed, and go to church?

I believe the meaning of so many holidays in the United States of America have lost their meaning to the American people, especially Independence Day. Christmas is now so commercial and presents that our children no longer understand it is about the birth of Jesus the Christ, the Savior of the World. Thanksgiving is about turkey and mash potatoes and not about the pilgrims coming to America seeking religious freedom. Memorial Day, Labor Day, Veterans Day… how many can really say they understand what those holidays are?

Independence Day – The 4th of July – was one of the single most important moments in the history of the world and we have forgotten it. It is now another day in which we no longer have to work, we can sleep in, and do whatever we wish with no thought to the Patriots of the American Revolution. The 4th of July is the 5th of July, just another day in the heart of the American People…

As I sat looking across Utah County and seeing those fireworks being set off in the night sky I was saddened that the true meaning of Independence Day has been lost. Why do we set off fireworks on the 4th of July? I believe it is this part of the United States National Anthem “The Star Spangled Banner,” written by Francis Scott Keys in 1814, is why:

“And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
“Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.”

It shows that the United States of America is still here, we are strong, and we are free!

As a nation we are loosing our identity. We are becoming just another nation on the face of the earth. We are no longer America, but america. We must retake Our identity as Americans! We can no longer allow Our most important day in Our Nation’s history to be treated as the 5th of July.

E-mail to US Senators Hatch & Bennett

My e-mail to the United States Senators Orrin Hatch and Bob Bennett - Senators for the State of Utah - on the upcoming Cap and Trade Bill (which I've nicknamed the Crap and Traitor Bill) that passed the House of Representatives and being introduced in the Senate.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Senator Orrin Hatch/Bob Bennett,

As one of your constituents in the Great State of Utah I am very concerned about the upcoming American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009 (H.R. 2454) being introduced in the United States Senate. It recently passed in the United States House of Representatives in a 219 - 212 (Roll no. 477) vote, making it one of the largest tax bills in the history of the United States of America.

In my own research it will increase my family's taxes nearly $1000 a year! This isn't what America needs in this time of economic crisis!

When this bill is introduced in the Senate I want you to vote "NO!" on this tax bill! It basically increases the taxes of every American in the United States and gives more control of the country to the Federal Government, appointed - not elected - persons in the Executive Branch, and more!

VOTE "NO!" ON H.R. 2454!

Thank you for your time and service as my elected representative in the Senate. I and many other Utah will be will be following your vote on this damaging bill very closely.

Respectfully,

Charles A. Hall, "Tony"

This bill must be stopped at all costs!

The Global Warming Scandal!

Around this time last year (2008) conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh talked about how the same scientists were screaming "GLOBAL COOLING!" in the 1970s are the same people now screaming "GLOBAL WARMING!" He pointed out that for several decades now the countries in Europe have been taxing their citizens to "solve the global warming crisis" but they have nothing to show for it except increasing people's taxes.

With a vote of 219 to 212 the passage of HR 2454 - "American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009 (AKA Cap and Trade Act)" - in the United States House of Representatives yesterday (Friday, 26 June 2009) showed that our elected representatives are following the same course Europe is, taxing the citizens of the United States in a scam! It all comes down to the all mighty dollar (even though the United States Dollar is losing its mighty value).

In the three hour debate yesterday Rep. Barbara Lee (D-CA) said, "I rise today in support of HR 2454, which really does send a clear... message that polluting our planet, our communities, and our livelihood no longer comes without cost." That cost is your hard earned dollars! If you breath, if you turn on your computer, if you do ANYTHING you are polluting the planet, community, and livelihood! You must pay for your living!

Just today I learned on the Facebook Group Our Country Deserves Better of a video produced and aired on Channel 4 in the United Kingdom called "The Great Global Warming Swindle."

Here is the 10 minute version of the highlights of the video, called "The Global Warming C02 Scam":



Here is the full version of "The Great Global Warming Swindle":

Global Warming is a scandal that has struck to the very heart of almost every government in the world. It is a scandal that has gone all the way to the Oval Office in the White House! It is a scandal that stretches across the global.

What I do believe is that greenhouse gases, the sun, and other NATURAL factors are the causing of the warming of the earth. Co2 is a natural part of our every day life. As you sit there and read this you are breathing, producing natural Co2 gas. Why is it natural? Because breathing is a natural thing to do. If you do not breath you do not live. Even when you die and when you body breaks down Co2 is released. Co2 is natural!

I encourage all to watch the videos above (more so the full version then the highlights) and see what is not being said in the American mainstream media.

Again, I do not believe in the Global Warming Scandal! We can no longer allow a scandal, a scam, a flat out lie to control our government and our lives!

Why I Will No Longer Remain Silent!

Since Tuesday, 20 January 2009 when President Barack Obama took the Oath of Office of the President of the United States the entire country has seen several events happen already in the first five (5) months of his Presidency:

-The Federal Bailouts
-Uncontrolled Federal Spending
-Bankruptcy of Major Auto Companies
-Tea Party Campaigns

That is just some of the things that have been happening. What gets me more then anything is the ratings of the President and the United States Congress.

Here is a picture of the latest Rasmussen.com President Approval Index:

(http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/obama_administration/daily_presidential_tracking_poll)

Look how they are coming so close to each other! According to a Gallop.com poll posted 23 June 2009 “Americans' approval of the job Congress is doing has slipped to 33% this month, down from the recent high of 39% in March, but still significantly higher than job approval ratings of Congress over the last several years” (http://www.gallup.com/poll/121208/Congress-Approval-Rating-Drops-33.aspx).

It is shocking me how the country is shaping up right now. What I’m really shocked about is the activity the Citizens of the United States of America are showing! The big one has been the Tea Parties happening across the nation! The People of the United States are finally speaking up! They are fighting for Their rights and putting in check Their representatives in Washington, D.C.

I created a Facebook Group called “Second Amendment Defenders of America” (http://www.facebook.com/groups.php?ref=sb#/group.php?gid=39739559476) on Saturday, 21 December 2008 because I knew that after the Obama Administration was in place they would be coming after and destroy the Second Amendment – The Right of the People to Keep and Bear Arms – of the United States Constitution. Though the membership numbers a few join every day. Why? Because average Citizens are tired of the uncontrolled nature in Washington, D.C. and They are finally speaking up! It is at the grassroots, in Our local community, where REAL CHANGE is made!

I have written letters to My representatives in the United States Congress, left messages for the Utah State Governor, and others because I will no longer remain silent! Because the People of the United States are no longer remaining silent!

One of my favorite television shows was the remake of SciFi channels Battlestar Galactica. In the Series Finale “Daybreak, Part II” Lee Adama (played by Jamie Bamber) says, “If you don’t participate in the political conversation then you’re giving up your voice, you’re giving up your right to have a say in the way that our society is run.” I could not agree more! You have to engage in the political conversation! You have to have Your voice heard by those You cast Your vote for!

I will not give up My Voice! My Voice is more powerful then My representatives voice at the local, state, and federal level. If We, the People of the United States, do not speak up then our voice will be lost and only Theirs’, our elected Representatives, will be heard.

This is why I will no longer remain silent! I will not give up My Voice! I will have a say in how My country is run!

E-mail to Governor Huntsman

Dear Governor Huntsman,

On your desk from the State Legislator are two very good pro-gun bills that are awaiting your signature to sign into law. Those bills are:

House Bill 357 and Senate Bill 78

As a person that voted for you in the last election I am requesting that you sign these two bills into law. They are very key in maintaining the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution and Article I, Section VI of the Utah Constitution. These two bills will be restoring these rights that so many are trying to take away from law-biding gun-owners like myself.

Defend the Constitution of the US and of the Great State of Utah and sign these bills into law!

Respectfully,
Charles A. Hall, "Tony"

AMEN TO THAT !!!!

===========

I agree completely! We have become a retard country!

Job - Urine Test

JOB - URINE TEST
(Whoever wrote this one deserves a HUGE pat on the back!)

Joe, the average worker says;

Like a lot of folks in this state, I have a job. I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit. In order to get that paycheck, I am required to pass a random urine test with which I have no problem. What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who don't have to pass a urine test. Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check because I have to pass one to earn it for them? Please understand, I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet. I do, on the other hand, have a problem with helping someone sitting on their lazy butts, doing drugs, while I work. . . . Can you imagine how much money the state would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check? Pass this along if you agree or simply delete if you don't. Hope you all will pass it along, though . .. . It is a needed change in this country -- and soon!!!!!

Guess we could title that program, 'Urine or You're Out'

The Second Amendment: The People's Check

Nothing in the United States Constitution or its amendments gives “We The People” a “check” on Our government except the Second Amendment – The Right to Keep and Bear Arms. It is the one check “We The People” have against a corrupt government. The Freedoms and Rights of speech, religion, press, assembly, voting, speedy trial, due process, no quarter and all others are not a check on Our government, only the Right to Keep and Bear Arms allows Us that check.

If it Our check on Our government why are Democrats, Handgun Control, Inc. (HCI – “The Brady Campaign”), liberal groups and judges trying to take away Our check and Our right? Because without it “We The People” no longer control the government. The government will no longer be our government but Theirs, They will have control and may do as They feel is needed: suspend free and open elections, take away freedoms like the freedom of the press and speech, put in jail whom They’d like, etc. The people are now at the mercy of the very government set up to protect them.

Many on the left (liberals) will say it is to protect us. That taking away our guns and ammo we will be safer. That gun registration allows the government to control gun violence. Well, many crimes committed today are done with firearms sold on the black market in back alleys ad abandoned warehouses. By taxing and taking aim at law-biding citizens with outrageous laws, rules, and regulations only further puts the innocent at the mercy of their government and criminal alike.

I have a sign in my front room window that says, “Criminals Prefer Unarmed Victims” and if we lose the Second Amendment criminal will have their way. PERIOD!

When Australia took away the right of their citizens to own a firearm all aspects of crime went up (see post and note titled “The Second Amendment – No First Without The Second”). Why? Because criminals had their way with their victims, the very people the government thought would be safer. Do we want the streets of America running red with the blood of the innocent? No! We want to be safe, not at the mercy of criminal and our government alike! We want to have that check against corrupt government.

In the movie National Treasure Benjamin Gates (played by Nicholas Cage) reads from the Declaration of Independence: “But when a long train of abuses and years of patience perusing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty to throw off such government and provide new guards for their future security.” He explains it to mean “if something is wrong, those that have the ability to take action have the responsibility to take action” and replace it with a new government.

On July 4th, 1776 the most educated men on the American continent began that process. Now 232 years later we have to defend what they created: A More Prefect Union. They look down from the heavens today, waiting to see if we live up to the gift and legacy they have left us. We will be judged on how we treat this nation they, our ancestors, set up.

We must preserve it and always check our leaders and hold them accountable for their actions. If we allow them, the government, to take away our one and only “check” the rest of our freedoms and rights will soon follow.

The Founding Fathers set up a checks and balance system between the three branches of the Federal Government. They then gave us, The People, a check: The Second Amendment – The Right to Keep and Bear Arms. If we allow corrupt politicians and interest groups on Capital Hall and across this nation to take way the Second Amend Father in Heaven, God Almighty, have mercy upon us for we have failed. Forgive us, our ancestors, which freed us from foreign rule and established the greatest nation to even be setup upon this earth for we have let the corrupt destroy that which you built with your own blood, tears, and lives. Forgive us, our children, for we have not passed onto you a legacy of freedom but a past of sorrow and corruption. Forgive us for we have failed on our watch. Forgive us.

I pray that day will never come. We cannot let it come! What can you do to make sure that day never comes? Take up your modern day quill and parchment (pen and paper) and write your elected officials (local, state, and federal) that you want your rights to remain untouched. Tell them to leave your God Given Rights alone! Tell them they serve you, not us serve them. Get your family and friends involved. Go out and buy a pistol, shotgun, and rifle and then train to use them. Become an American Marksman. Join the National Rifle Association of America (NRA - www.nra.org), join Second Amendment Defenders of America (SADA), join local shooting associations and clubs. Take your gun hating friends to the range and teach them how to shoot and then teach them why it is so important to preserve our Second Amendment right. These are just some of the many things you can do to preserve your right and my right and their right and this great nation.

Now is the time to stand up and be counted. Now is the time to protect our nation. I quote James “Mitch” Vilos: “Citizens who quietly watch our freedom eroded, who don’t want to rock the ‘comfort boat’ by speaking out (many of whom are couch-potato-sports addicts) are no longer Americans; they are rich, comfortable, oversexed Romans who foolishly believe Rome could never fall.” We cannot be as the Romans for we are Americans. “We The People” must preserve this great nation, The United States of America, that it may never perish from the earth

The Second Amendment: No First Without The Second

The Bill of Rights was introduced by James Madison, the Father of the Constitution and Fourth President of the United States, in 1789 to the First United States Congress and were put into effect as constitutional amendments on December 15, 1791 when they were ratified by the states of the Union at that time. Originally Madison wanted this to be included in the original constitution but those were struck down by the Founders at that time.

The Bill of Rights is just that, rights! Something that is guaranteed that cannot be taken away. Many people now days do not think of them as rights but they are. They are not privileges, they are rights!

The Second Amendment is probably the most heated of them all, literally and figuratively. It reads:

"A well regulated Militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

Many have thought that the word "Militia" means "military" when in fact at the time of the Bill of Rights "militia" meant "the people" (Norton, page 206). That is right, "the people" have the right to keep and bear arms. If you have ever seen the movie The Patriot starring Mel Gibson you will understand this concept even more. I recommend you go and watch it.

"The first legislation on the subject was The Militia Act of 1792 which provided, in part:
"That each and every free able-bodied white male citizen of the respective States, resident therein, who is or shall be of age of eighteen years, and under the age of forty-five years (except as is herein after excepted) shall severally and respectively be enrolled in the militia, ... every citizen, so enrolled and notified, shall, within six months thereafter, provide himself with a good musket or firelock...."
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Militia_Act_of_1792)

This was replaced by The Militia Act of 1903 that established the "organized militia" and "reserved" or "unorganized militia". The Organized Militia is now the National Guard, maintained by each state. The Unorganized Militia is the people.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Militia_Act_of_1903)

The Second Amendment is what protects the rest of the Amendments regarding the freedoms of speech, religion, voting, and others.

In "Utah Gun Law" by Mitch Vilos he gave three (3) reasons for the Second Amendment:

1) It is a vital "check" on government tyranny.
Here are some unknown facts about when the "right to keep and bear arms" were taken away from other nations:

* In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control. From 1929 to 1953, about 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated. This doesn't include the 30 million 'Uncle Joe' starved to death in the Ukraine.

* In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915 to 1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

* Germany established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945, leaving a populace unable to defend itself against the Gestapo and SS. Hundreds of thousands died as a result.

* China established gun control in 1935. From 1948 to 1952, 20 million political dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

* Guatemala established gun control in 1964. From 1964 to 1981, 100,000 Mayan Indians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

* Uganda established gun control in 1970. From 1971 to 1979, 300,000 Christians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated. The total dead are said to be 2-3 million

* Cambodia established gun control in 1956. From 1975 to 1977, 1-2 million 'educated' people, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

* Defenseless people rounded up and exterminated in the 20th Century because of gun control: 56 million at a bare minimum.

You won't see this data on the US evening news, or hear politicians disseminating this information.

Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, gun-control laws adversely affect only the law-abiding citizens.

Take note my fellow Americans, before it's too late.

The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, please remind him of this history lesson.

With Guns...........We Are "Citizens".
Without Them........We Are "Subjects".
(Source: http://www.illuminati-news.com/Articles/117.html)

It just shows you that gun control doesn't work! The Second Amendment protects the citizens!

2) It in an important deterrent to foreign invasion.

During W.W.II the Japanese decided not to invade America because they knew most Americans were ARMED.

Note: Admiral Yamamoto who crafted the attack on Pearl Harbor had attended Harvard University 1919-1921 & was Naval Attaché to the U. S. 1925-28. Most of our Navy was destroyed at Pearl Harbor and our Army had been deprived of funding and was ill prepared to defend the country.

It was reported that when asked why Japan did not follow up the Pearl Harbor attack with an invasion of the U. S. Mainland, his reply was that he had lived in the U. S. and knew that almost all households had guns.
(Source: http://www.illuminati-news.com/Articles/117.html)

3) It allows free citizens to defend themselves from violent criminal attack.

* Gun owners in Australia were forced by new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be destroyed by their own government, a program costing Australia taxpayers more than $500 million dollars. The first year results:

Australia-wide, homicides went up 3.2 percent

Australia-wide, assaults went up 8.6 percent

Australia-wide, armed robberies went up 44 percent (yes, 44 percent)

In the state of Victoria alone, homicides with firearms are now up 300 percent. Note that while the law-abiding citizens turned them in, the criminals did not, and criminals still possess their guns.

It will never happen here? I bet the Aussies said that too.

While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady DECREASE in armed robbery with firearms, that changed drastically upward in the first year after gun confiscation...since criminals now are guaranteed that their prey is unarmed.

There has also been a dramatic increase in break-ins and assaults of the ELDERLY. Australian politicians are at a loss to explain how public safety has decreased, after such monumental effort and expense was expended in successfully ridding Australian society of guns. The Australian experience and the other historical facts above prove it.
(Source: http://www.illuminati-news.com/Articles/117.html)

(Vilos, page 1).

So, there we have it. The three (3) big reasons for the Second Amendment. There are no other rights without the Second Amendment. It protects us and our community, our nation, our very way of life.

Say "No To Gun Control!" Say "No To Anti-Gun Laws!" Say "No To Liberal Politicians Wanting To Disarm America!"

More coming soon as we look to see how the Obama Administration treats the Second Amendment.

Special: Change Equals Same

The campaign slogan for President-elect Barack Obama was "Change for America," "Change the World," "Time for Change," etc., etc., etc. Well, has anyone been looking at his appointees to Cabinet? The Attorney General will be none other then Janet Reno who was also Clinton's Attorney General. His appointment for Chief of Staff is Rahm Emanuel, who was also Clinton's Chief of Staff. President-elect Obama is also looking at other former Clinton cabinet members to fill his cabinet. Now, the question is: does Obama + Change = Clinton.

I would say, "Yes!" Change for President-elect Obama is to bring back the Clinton Administration for a Third Term. I spoke to someone at work the other day who voted for Obama. I asked this person, "Why is he bringing back the Clinton Administration?"

Response: "Probably because they know the job and what they need to do there."

Well, interesting, okay. I just find that this looks like a Third Clinton Administration, more so with bringing in former rival, Senator Hillary R. Clinton (D-NY), to fill the Secretary of State position. This will give a clear Clinton Voice to the Obama Administration. Former President William Jefferson Clinton will be able to push his own agenda through the White House.

Rumors are that they are looking for one Republican to serve on the Cabinet, a palm offering to "heal the wounds between the parties."

The ways things are looking is that the First Obama Administration will really be the Third Clinton Administration finding its way back into the White House.

Prop 8 Was By The People

Abraham Lincoln said at Gettysburg, "...and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."

In the movie V for Vendetta V said, "People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people."

I share these two because the United States of America government on all levels (federal, state, county, city, township, etc.) is for The People and when The People as a whole speak Their word is law no matter what Their elected officials and the politicians say. The People should not be afraid that Their government will overturn Their wishes.

When Proposition 8 was put onto the November 4th Election Ballot in California it was The People that decided to make it a constitutional amendment to the California State Constitution to ban same-sex marriage. It passed above a 50% plus majority and The People spoke. Now the California Supreme Court is going to look at it and there is a high chance CSC will overturn the majority of The People and not bow to the Voice of The People.

This is completely wrong in my opinion. When The People speak the government is to listen, not the other way. The power of all things in America rests with The People. If They, The People, don't like what is going on They can come together to vote on it outside of representation government and pass the law. That is what is granted to Us, The People.

Should the California Supreme Court overturn the Voice of The People it will be a sad day for America. It will show that the power is no longer with the people, but with the Government. It will be the Government that decides on all things, the people will have been forgotten and we are no longer a nation "of the people, by the people, for the people" and it will have "perish[ed] from the earth." Abraham Lincoln had a vision of the post-Civil War United States of America and if it is allowed for the CSC to overturn the people then that vision is dead and lost.

I Fear For America (Part I)

This past week we saw an historic election where the first African American, Senator Barack Obama (D-IL), was elected to the Office of the President of the United States of America. He brings the slogan, "Change for America" and "Change the World" and "Change We Can Believe In." Well, we are going to be getting change, but is it the change we want?

We have elected a man that didn't wear a United States Flag lapel on his suit until after asked about it by a reporter. He stopped wearing the lapel because he protested the Iraqi War. Yeah, that is patriotism and a statement. Doesn't that sound familiar? Yeah, Senator John Kerry (D-MA), did that during the Vietnam War where he threw his medals over the fence at the White House as a protest to the war. They have something in common! Congratulations!!! We got another person that throws patriotism out the window, or over the fence, or however we want to call it. It is also said of Obama that he doesn't want to put his hand on the Bible to be sworn in as President as the rest of the 43 before him have along with not putting his hand over his heart for the Pledge of Allegiance. Yeah, we have a "real, proud" American coming into office, don't we?

We also voted for a man where his wife, Michelle Obama, said she is finally proud of her country and proud to be an American. Yeah, go First Lady Elect!

We have voted for a man that wants to not allow oil and gas drilling here in America, wanting to stop 360,000 acres of land in Utah for those resources. Sounds like we are still going to be dependent of foreign oil. Didn't we want to move away from foreign oil? Wasn't that part of the "change" we were promised? Well, how are we going to stop being dependent on foreign oil if we can't get our own oil and gas going up here in America? Hmmm...

Stay tuned for more... This is just going to keep getting better and better...
