Back in the spring of 2009, Nancy Pelosi called the Tea Party movement nothing more than Astro-turf; nothing could have been further from the truth. One look at the signs and you could tell who the “Astro-turf” crowd was.
The Organizing for America (OFA) crowd, funded by George Soros and supported by the White House and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) is nothing more than an organizing for Obama organization.
This is a well orchestrated protest; the DNC and OFA are bussing in people from all over the country to the Wisconsin capital. Teachers have instructed their students to show up to protest and then when asked why they are there, they students reply “I don’t know, I guess we’re protesting today”
This scene is going to be repeated all across America as state governments struggle to keep their heads above water from rising tides of debt. Governor Scott Walker introduced a budget to protect teachers from being laid off, about 2,000 of them. Included in this budget is a plan for teachers to pay part (5%) of their health care costs and to contribute to their retirement fund.
Workers in the private sector have been paying a portion if not all of their health insurance costs and also to their retirement funds, the teachers don’t want any part of this. They want this governor’s to raise taxes so that the rest of us will continue to pay their part.
Obama, the DNC, Organizing for America and George Soros want this country in turmoil, the want the system (capitalism and free markets) to collapse so they can rebuild it the way they see fit and spread the wealth around and destroy capitalism. George Soros has already done this to several countries, that’s how he makes his money; betting that the currency will collapse and then investing his money towards that goal. He was convicted of insider trading in France and banned from investing in Great Brittan for this very reason.
On every level this man is trying his hardest to collapse the dollar, through his Tide’s Foundation, his Open Society Foundation, Organizing for America, MoveOn.org, the Council on Foreign Relations and the Center for American Progress and these are just a few on his list.
Teachers and public union workers need to recognize that the rest of us can no longer afford to pay for their lavish benefits just as was witnessed in the private sector when the UAW drove the auto companies into the dirt.
In 1945, 37% of the American workforce was unionized, the union bosses repeatedly told the workers they should vote the democratic ticket because they support the poor and they will save your jobs.
Today that number is less than 12%. Just look at Detroit, the Motor City capital of the world has been rusted away by democratic rule. John Dingell and John Conyers are the major contributors to this decline.
So when we go back to the polls next year, remember who is stopping the progress in this nation and who is hell-bent on destroying our way of life.

How the Democrats Support the Poor
As I have previously written, you need to look no further than the city of Detroit to see how the Democratic Party has “taken care of the poor”
The plight of Detroit is a perfect example of what a socialist system does to the poor. It rewards those at the bottom by allowing them to squeak by on a meager existence by giving them a monthly check which amounts to the same pay they would make at a minimum wage job after taxes, food and shelter. The government takes care of the food portion for them by way of the bridge card (food stamp program) they get free health care at any emergency room, their heat and electricity are paid for by programs such as MPSC Assistance Program, People Care program and the State Emergency Relief just to name a few and rent is dirt cheap in the city.
All of these programs have one thing in common; they are paid for by our tax dollars.
These politicians have driven the life out of the city, they are constantly trying to bring it back with more of our tax dollars being spent on improvement projects, entitlement programs, jobs bills but none of these work. The only thing that will revive the city is free market capitalism.
If a young professional who works in the city wants to move downtown figuring they’ll be closer to work, there are many nice places to live along the riverfront. However, if that person wants to go buy groceries, shop for clothing, hardware and such, they have to leave the city. The crime in the inner city has driven all of these types of business out.
Neighborhood revitalization will only take place after the city has been scrubbed of crime both on the streets and in city hall.
Crooked politicians like Kwame Kilpatrick, Monica Conyers and Coleman Young have left a bad taste in the mouth of so many. Kwame’s mother Carolyn ‘Cheek’ Kilpatrick, John Conyers, Monica’s husband are among the many that perpetuate this situation.
The jobs in Detroit are becoming non-existent and one of the problems adding to this is illegal immigrants. Michigan is a border state and NumbersUSA.com has rated politicians in our state on how they stand on enforcing our borders to protect our economy, jobs and ultimately its citizens.
Looking over the list of grades given by NumbersUSA for politicians that support protecting our border, we find the bottom 6 US representatives from Michigan are all democrats and all but one represent the Detroit area the only exception is Dale Kildee who hails from Flint. Dale scored a solid D, Sander Levin scored a D-, the two John’s; Conyers and Dingell scored an F and Carolyn “Cheeks” Kilpatrick and Carl Levin scored an F-
People in suburbs are fed up with Detroit. When the people of the city re-elected Kwame even after knowing his crimes, the people in the burbs were greatly disappointed and many washed their hands of the city. A city council member was recorded on camera’s slamming his fist on a table at a council meeting demanding that because the city of “Detroit has an 88% minority rate; 88% of the casino employee’s then should be minorities”. The people in suburbs said “OK, we’ll stay of the casino’s then and see what kind of money they make with just minorities gambling in them” hence the casino’s are now looking at bankruptcy.
The city of Detroit supplies water to most of the suburbs but no one from the ‘burbs’ is allowed on the board that oversees it. I know first-hand how city services work. If you’ve got $50, you can get someone with a tool to turn the water back on if it was shut off for non-payment and it could be years before they find out and if at all. Trash pick-up works the same way; if you own a business, you are required to dump most of your refuse into a rented dumpster, but if you contact the city trash collectors as they go through your alleyway, they’ll take all the trash you have for a $20 bill.
Detroit is probably the most segregated city in the nation. Until the residents become aware of what is really happening in their city and top electing crooks, I’m afraid it will only get worse until Detroit eventually mowed down for farm land and then we’ll have to start all over again.
This is how the democrats support the poor, yet the people still vote for these blood-suckers.

Baseball and Politics
With all that is wrong in our country; Obama lying about the jobs he offered Sestak and Romanoff to bow out of the political races they were in, our freedoms being stripped daily by law makers in Lansing and DC, oil gushing out of the ocean floor, the national debt soaring out of sight and our taxes about to jump up again, you’d think the likes of Gov. Jennifer Granholm, Sen. Debbie Stabenow and Rep. John Dingell would have enough to do rather than get involved in possibly passing legislation to over-ride a bad call in a baseball game.
Yet here they are twitting, tweeting and grandstanding about what can they do to correct this grave misdeed. The fact is that the no-hitter Armando Galarraga threw but was taken away by a bad call by umpire Jim Joyce will be remembered much longer than if the game had gone off without this call. Both of these gentlemen acted graciously to each other and were apologetic, showing real class and excellent sportsmanship.
These politicians are looking for any crumb they can use to show us that they are now “the good guys” after Granholm and the democrats of this state have destroyed Detroit and the automakers.
Dingell has never held a real job. He graduated from college and went right to work with his father who was the US Representative in the same district for many years, once he retired, John slipped right in with same last name and has been trying to get some form of health care passed ever since, regardless of what was in it. Nobody really knew because so many wrote it but none of them took the time to actually read all of it.
Debbie Stabenow has done her fair share of damage, voting solidly along party lines answering the call to socialism. She wants to abolish the first amendment. She does not like talk radio seeing the only ones that can actually draw a crowd are the conservative stations.
Talk America (whom her husband was a large investor) could never make a go of it mainly because people can only put up with so much hatred and anger without any facts to back it up. They get tired of the lies and twisting of the stories that the far left spew in an effort to hide their own insecurities.
Jenny “No Jobs” Granholm had good intentions but went to the dark side and fell into the trance of the far-left. The world would be a better place if we could get by on wind and solar power alone, but that technology is a long way off and we need fossil fuels now to keep the economy rolling. Taxing our manufacturing base until they left the state and took our jobs with them was not a good move.
In 5 years, we were blown away along with all of our jobs, over 1 million of them.
Obama says he take full responsibility for the BP Oil spill in the Gulf but never misses a chance to blame everyone else. He is demonizing oil companies; he just does not realize how much they contribute to our economy, the jobs and wealth they bring to our southern states in the form of jobs and tax revenues.
Obama stated that his AG Eric Holder “looked into” the job offers to Sestak and Romanoff and that they were “nothing there” that everything was legal.
This would be the same as a defense attorney walking into court and telling the judge that his client is innocent and the judge saying “OK, case dismissed then”
We need politicians that step up and take real responsibility for their actions as Jim Joyce did and not blow it off like so many in the current administration do.
