Or, I suppose it's possible the RNC is so confident in Michelle that even after the Hardball setup they still believe she will win resoundingly. There really is no shortage of people who really do believe Obama is anti-American.


I think all gun grabbers are anti-American. :)


Not to mention those that want to punish people who have achieved and done well in their life in order to give it to those who would rather sit on their @$$ and wait for the government to give them a handout.

Dean, your post really made me think. Do I believe that B H Obama is anti-American? After some though I have come to the conclusion that I believe that he wants a different America than I do. Is he anti-American? No. Is he anti-the American way of independence and liberty? Very much so.

Any person who seeks to modify the United States Constitution via the courts, and packing courts specifically to do such a thing, rather than working to Amend the Constitution as was intended to be done is absolutely anti-American.

Do I believe B H Obama desires the United States to be a socialist state? Without any doubt whatsoever. Sen. Biden went on record Tuesday as saying that the Federal government should take over the retirement plans of the executives who were in charge of the failed financial institutions. While I have absolutely no problem with prosecuting crime to the fullest extent of the law, taking private property simply due to the prevailing attitudes of the current elected Federal officials is tyranny. If authorities can sieze an executive's retirement plan without a conviction, they can sieze anyone's.

We also have House Democrats championing the takeover of oil companies and oil producers. Welcome Cesar Chavez!

All during my youth I was taught, in school and other places, that socialism and communism were anti-American and were to be resisted with force if necessary (Korea, Vietnam, Cuba, et al). Hell, even the union I belonged to at the time (defunct printer's union) had an oath that we all took to fight socialism and communism.

Today unions and the Democratic party are actively promoting those principles.

I do not know about the rest of you, but I have never desired to work in a commune nor a collective.

In high school I learned very little about communism, socialism, the cold war, and the use of American military force. I graduated in 1999.

In high school I was told that socialism was great for free health care and cheap drugs and so on. The <s>teachers</s> indoctrinators wouldn't use the word communist let alone pinko bacause it was offensive to their views.

I graduated in 2001.

And the current administration's SCOTUS appointees and political litmus tests for U.S. attorneys?

Well, of course. Everything since the Dred Scott decision (and possibly even that) can be linked directly to George W. Bush. Mr. Soros told me that.

At least on 2A issues, I'm pretty happy with the current administration's SCOTUS appointees; political litmus tests for political appointments aren't exactly unusual, although, historially, they've tended to be milder (but not nonexistent; how many Republican conservatives did, say, Clinton fire*?) from USAttorney positions.

I graduated high school more than 30 years prior to your graduation. I lived through the A-Bomb and H-Bomb scares. I lived through the times when Air Force, Air Force Reserve, and Air National Guard units stood continuous watch in Minneapolis and Duluth with F-89's equipped with nuclear tipped Genie missiles. I lived through the construction and final decommission of Nike bases at the Veteran's cemetery at Fort Snelling, Farmington, St. Bonifacious, etc. We learned what the communists were capable of in Hungary and in East Germany/East Berlin during elementary, junior high, and high school classes. I lived through the times when a shoe-pounding Kruschev promised to bury the USA. What I failed to understand at that time, along with millions of others, is that he would use public school teachers to accomplish it.

Today it appears that many are more interested in being ashamed of their country, even to the point of apologizing for and lamenting the use of atomic bombs at the end of World War II.

I will be the first to admit that this country is not perfect. However, converting it to a France, or worse yet, into a pure socialist or communist country will not better it.

Not unless you vote for someone else. Until people do that, the RNC has nothing to lose. They will smile at you and say, "What? you don't like the way we do business? What are you going to do about it? Vote Democrat? :lol: :P "

"By the way, get back to cleaning up our poop on your kitchen floor."

No thanks. I'll vote for the good candidate, no matter what letters are after their names.
Go Michelle! Thank you for standing twice with us against the bankers!

Dear Friend,

When it comes to fiscal issues, Congresswoman Michelle Bachman is a strong ally in Washington. She recently stood up with me and voted against the massive Wall Street Bailout, a politically difficult, principled stand for which she should be commended.

Michelle also serves with me on the House Financial Services Committee where she is a consistent ally in our efforts to shine light on the Federal Reserve. Her recent Op-Ed in the Washington Times demonstrates her leadership on the Monetary Issue.

As you may have heard, Congresswoman Bachman has recently come under attack by the liberal media. Her opponent has capitalized and raised some big money in a short period of time. There is even talk of a write-in candidate with no chance of winning that would only syphon votes away from Michelle.

At this time when big government forces are grabbing more and more power, we can not afford to lose a fiscally principled Representative like Michelle Bachman in the Congress. Please join me in supporting Michelle in any way you feel comfortable and, most importantly, please make sure you get the polls and vote for her on November 4th.
In Liberty,



Ron Paul



I wonder if this endorsement helped Michelle a bit... Sure hope it did. :D
