Dear Pals,

This is real footage. These folks are not actors. The newspapers and literature is real. These people HOPE to CHANGE America into a Marxist nation.

It's not a joke.

You won't see them featured on NBC, CBS or ABC.

And if you do, their presence be downplayed.

They will be just one of the "diverse" groups that showed up to "ask for their bailout."

"The banks got theirs! Wall Street got theirs! We want the People's bailout!" that's what Al Sharpton said.

Al are you serious??!

The left has been getting its bailout-handouts-programs-grants-gifts-entitlements for decades. The more they get. The more they want. The UAW even got GM!

All the birds of a feather have NOW flocked together in DC! The Reverend Al "Not So" Sharpton called it a rally that demonstrated American Diversity...the real face of the hard working people of this nation.

I call it American Perversity - the perversion of the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. They want the right to manage your life, restrict your liberty and relentlessly pursue your wealth for their happiness.

That's why they were all there "of their own free will, or else" to support The People's Glorious Leader, President Barack Obama!

Hail! Hail! The gangs all here! UAW, NAACP, Move On.org, Black Muslims, SEIU, ACORN, The American Communist party.

Go here for the full list of attending organizations: http://www.cpusa.org/

They are all "fellow travelers" all beads on the same string. All links in the same chain they'd like to put around America.It's the whole Liberal Lallapallooza Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! Left - all in one convenient location. It's like a giant shopping mall of Bad Ideas and Failed Schemes.

Get out your bics and sing Commiebyu along with Tvarichs!

The mask is off the Hope and Change movement!

And it is a bowel movement!

It stinks!

This is not about race.

This is not about jobs.

This is not about Democrats vs. Republicans.

This is a much more serious issue.

This is about Individual Freedom vs Totalitarian Control.

The true nature of the Hope and Change Obamunists is NOW out in the open.

And, they think that most Americans are too dumb, too apathetic and too weak to stop them.

P.U.S.H. has now come to SHOVE - and they are determined to shove their worldview, beliefs and twisted thinking down the throats or up the butt of the ordinary American citizen.

Will you allow them to succeed?

Or, will you get off the fence?

Off the sidelines and come onto the field to roll back The Tide Of Tyranny?

 If you think the Obamunist vision is the desireable future for America...why wait?

 Move to Russia, China, North Korea, Venezuela or Cuba today!

Just walk right in and demand your rights.

And when you see Kim Jung Il, give him a hug for me!

The Secret Of Obama's Success, Revisited, And An O-man Omen For Our Own O-man. We Can Plug The Unconstrained Flow Of Dough In 2010 And Start The Serious Clean-Up in 2012.

Dear Pals,

PS: Here's my favorite poem. I think it is the harbinger of things to come for my arrogant and condescending President Barack Hussein Obama, it's an O-man omen for our own O-man.

Ozymandias

by Percy Bysshe Shelley

I met a traveler from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal these words appear:
“My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look upon my works, ye Mighty, and despair!”
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

See you in the voting line...or the Gulag.

Is The Birk Blog Becoming Too Stridently Critical Of President Obama And His Junta? That's A Fair Question.

Dear Pals,

If you saw a friend in danger of being killed by an on coming car from his or her blindside, would you stop and ask yourself the question, "How loud should I yell?"

That's kind of where I am.

I see my country being destroyed on a daily basis virtually everywhere I look.

And, I see lots of folks, people that I know and respect, who seem to be resigned to it, or worse yet oblivious to it because they are caught up in the activities of their daily life.

I've said it before many times and I'll say it again here.

Don't take my word for anything. Do your own research. Get all the facts. Pay attention to the details of what government is doing to you.

Think! Think for yourself!

Many people are now more interested in what goverment can do for them...and they don't really give a rat's ass what it does to their fellow citizens or to their country.

America is rapidly being deformed right before our very eyes in increasingly larger increments.

The Entitled Class and The Elite Government Class is rapidly outnumbering the Productive Working, Tax Paying and Job Creating Classes.

Where are the new jobs coming from?

Not from the private sector...they are coming from the goverment sector.

16,000 new IRS agents will be hired to enforce compliance with new mandatory healthcare payments.

Govenment jobs now pay more and have more benefits than private sector jobs do today?

And, government DOES NOT PRODUCE ANY PRODUCTS OR GOODS!!

But, the goverment will eagerly tax anything you make, save, invest in or accumulate for your family.

And 50% of the people in the United States today PAY NO FEDERAL INCOME TAX!!

This is not AMERICA.

This is Dopetopia, the kingdom of Obama The First.

This is the USSA...the progressive-socialist-communist-facist almalgamation of ill-conceived ideas, bad and failed policies - otherwise known as THE DICTATORIAL AND FREEDOM DESTROYING OBAMA JUNTA'S REGIME.

That statement makes me an "Enemy Of The Obama State."

Please add my name to that list.

I'd like to sign it as big and as BOLD as John Hancock's name on The Declaration Of Independence, and wave it defiantly in King Barack's face.

So, if my loud and vocal criticism of the Obama government and its America-destroying policies seem strident, and disturbing to you, so be it.

At the end of the day, it may just mean that I'm on an earlier train to the Gulag than some of my other pals.

Is President Obama A Complete Idiot? Let Me Rephrase That...President Obama Is A Complete Idiot. Here's A (T)Reason Why.

Dear Pals,

Charles Krauthammer got it right in his column below:

Nuclear Posturing, Obama-Style

Charles Krauthammer, Friday, April 09, 2010

WASHINGTON -- Nuclear doctrine consists of thinking the unthinkable. It involves

making threats and promising retaliation that is cruel and destructive beyond

imagining. But it has its purpose: to prevent war in the first place.

During the Cold War, we let the Russians know that if they dared use their huge

conventional military advantage and invaded Western Europe, they risked massive

U.S. nuclear retaliation. Goodbye Moscow. Was this credible? Would we have done it? Who knows?

No one's ever been there. A nuclear posture is just that -- a declaratory policy designed to make the other guy think twice.

Our policies did. The result was called deterrence. For half a century, it held.

The Soviets never invaded. We never used nukes. That's why nuclear doctrine is

important.

The Obama administration has just issued a new one that "includes significant

changes to the U.S. nuclear posture," said Defense Secretary Bob Gates. First

among these involves the U.S. response to being attacked with biological or

chemical weapons.

Under the old doctrine, supported by every president of both parties for

decades, any aggressor ran the risk of a cataclysmic U.S. nuclear response that

would leave the attacking nation a cinder and a memory.

Again: Credible? Doable? No one knows. But the threat was very effective.

Under President Obama's new policy, however, if the state that has just attacked

us with biological or chemical weapons is "in compliance with the

Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT)," explained Gates, then "the U.S. pledges not to

use or threaten to use nuclear weapons against it."

Imagine the scenario: Hundreds of thousands are lying dead in the streets of

Boston after a massive anthrax or nerve gas attack. The president immediately

calls in the lawyers to determine whether the attacking state is in compliance

with the NPT. If it turns out that the attacker is up-to-date with its latest

IAEA inspections, well, it gets immunity from nuclear retaliation. (Our response

is then restricted to bullets, bombs and other conventional munitions.)

However, if the lawyers tell the president that the attacking state is NPT

noncompliant, we are free to blow the bastards to nuclear kingdom come.

This is quite insane. It's like saying that if a terrorist deliberately uses his

car to mow down a hundred people waiting at a bus stop, the decision as to

whether he gets (a) hanged or (b) 100 hours of community service hinges entirely

on whether his car had passed emissions inspections.

Apart from being morally bizarre, the Obama policy is strategically loopy. Does

anyone believe that North Korea or Iran will be more persuaded to abjure nuclear

weapons because they could then carry out a biological or chemical attack on the

U.S. without fear of nuclear retaliation?

The naivete is stunning. Similarly the Obama pledge to forswear development of

any new nuclear warheads, indeed, to permit no replacement of aging nuclear

components without the authorization of the president himself. This under the

theory that our moral example will move other countries to eschew nukes.

On the contrary. The last quarter-century -- the time of greatest superpower

nuclear arms reduction -- is precisely when Iran and North Korea went hellbent

into the development of nuclear weapons.

It gets worse. The administration's Nuclear Posture Review declares U.S.

determination to "continue to reduce the role of nuclear weapons in deterring

non-nuclear attacks." The ultimate aim is to get to a blanket doctrine of no

first use.

This is deeply worrying to many small nations who for half a century relied on

the extended U.S. nuclear umbrella to keep them from being attacked or overrun

by far more powerful neighbors. When smaller allies see the United States

determined to move inexorably away from that posture -- and for them it's not

posture, but existential protection -- what are they to think?

Fend for yourself. Get yourself your own WMDs. Go nuclear if you have to. Do you

imagine they are not thinking that in the Persian Gulf?

This administration seems to believe that by restricting retaliatory threats and

by downplaying our reliance on nuclear weapons, it is discouraging

proliferation.

But the opposite is true. Since World War II, smaller countries have agreed to

forgo the acquisition of deterrent forces -- nuclear, biological and chemical --

precisely because they placed their trust in the firmness, power and reliability

of the American deterrent.

Seeing America retreat, they will rethink. And some will arm. There is no

greater spur to hyper-proliferation than the furling of the American nuclear

umbrella.

PS: "None Dare Call It Treason"...I call it an Obamination!

The Obama Message to Isreal, Europe and the Free World...Don't count on America.

The Obama Message to terrorist states...Here's how to get away with MURDER!

Are President Obama's Policies, Actions, Inactions And Nonactions Inviting A Nuclear And/Or Biological Attack On America?

Dear Pals,

Let's think clearly and critically for a moment.

Yesterday was a very weird news day even for the Obama Administration.

1. Yesterday the Obama Administration announced a new U.S. Policy on the use of our nuclear arsenal. Secretary of State Clinton and Secretary of Defense Gates spelled it out.

In a nutshell, the new policy says that if the U.S. is attacked by nuclear or biological waeapons, we will not necessarily retaliate with our nuclear arsenal - lawyers will first determine if such action is approriate, and a new set of guidelines are now announced to the world.

2. It was also announced and reported in The New York Times that the administration has authorized the killing of Islamic cleric, the American born Anwar al-Awlaki - spiritual advisor to mass murderer Major Nidal Hassan.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/36208306/ns/world_news-the_new_york_times

Hmmmm...how does that square with the administration's tremendous concern over world opinion and  "due process" for the Gitmo detainees and the proposed trials in U.S. Courts?

I personally think that making all terrorists promptly dead is a good idea, however, to me, it seems oddly ironic and even oxymoronic that the Obama administration would publicly announce its plans to kill an American born citizen living abroad without trial or due process, while molly-coddling foreign-born self-confessed terrorists and enemy combatants captured on the battlefield.

It makes me wonder if President Obama is openly and privately provoking and encouraging an attack on America. I have never had a thought like that about any other President.

It makes me ask these questions:

Why would he snub and rebuke our staunchest ally Israel?

Why would his new policy water-down our commitments to defend our allies, if they were attacked?

Why would he continue to be soft on the nuclear-weaponization in Iran?

Why would he open the door to no retaliation if a "non-nuclear" proxy state or non-aligned group was used by North Korea or Iran?

Why would he remove long standing policies that give North Korea and Iran a "reason to pause."

Why would he berate the Afghan President - who is at best, weak and at worst terrible?

How does that help our troops? What's is Obama's alternative to Kharzi?

Why would he order the killing of an Islamic cleric who is an American citizen living overseas for allegedly inciting terrorism, while we give Major Hassan - the reportedly al-Awaki-incited terrorist and the real murderer of many people - medical care and a trial ?

Why not shoot Major Hassan now too? Is there any doubt of his guilt?

We know where Anwar al-Awaki is...why not have him arrested in Yemen and repatriated by the country where he is now living? Offer the use of our Seals or Special Ops forces to capture him?

THE BIRK BOTTOMLINE: It strikes me that all of these actions, inactions and non-actions by the Obama administration have the net effect of provoking and stoking up our enemies, marginalizing our allies, weakening our national defense policies as he simultaneously "drops our guard" and invites an attack on the United States - while stating with near certainty that we will not retaliate with maximum force against the perpatrators.

What is up with this smiling-happy-faced President guy??

To me, a simple-minded schmoo out here in the Midwest, this all appears to be UTTER INSANITY and at the very least complete ineptness and mindlessly naive abbrogations of long standing and arguably effective policies via an Obama administration's dangerously whimsical and capricious fiats.

Did Congress sign off on this?

What am I missing here? I just don't get it...'splain it to me Lucy.

PS: Maybe Vice President Joe Biden and Obama administration apologist-in-chief will explain the wisdom of it all to me. I just hope it isn't after an American city lies in ruins.

Why Did Benjamin Netanyahu Reject The Obama "Deal" Being Offered By Vice President Joe Biden? Here's The Answer...

Here's Newsweek's take on it:

http://www.newsweek.com/id/234972

Dear Pals,

Why Did Benjamin Netanyahu Reject The Obama "Deal" Being Offered By Vice President Joe Biden?

Here are the REAL TRUE reasons: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nazi_concentration_camps

I believe that President Barack Hussein Obama is guided by his early education and Islamic sympathies.

He is always ready to extend the "open hand of peace" in unconditional negotiations to people like Holocuast-denying Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. A madman who murders his own people in the streets of Teheran and openly supports Hamas and Hezbollah - groups, who like him and the Iranian Mullahs have REPEATEDLY vowed to erase the Nation Of Israel from the face of the earth.

The destruction of Israel is actually written in the Hamas Charter.

These guys are avowed killers. Period.

Syria and Iran are always an imminent threat to the people of Israel.

Netanyahu has made a correct assessment, he has read Obama well. As long as President Obama is in the White House, Isreal is really on its own. They cannot count on America.

They will count on themselves. Realisim. Strength. Self-Reliance and Fearless Courage in the face of evil are the hallmarks of Isreal.

I remember a time when America was like that too. Ronald Reagan had it right: Peace Through Strength.

If you ever wonder about Isreal's resolve, remember two words: Never again.

In the meantime, Obama fiddles, while Hillary diddles and Biden piddles...as the Muslim Madmen of Teheran proceed full speed ahead on their "peaceful nuclear programs."

I wonder why Hillary is still there?? Once again Obama has slapped his Secretary Of State to the sidelines and sent Joe the Bobblehead, Vice Gaffer Of The United States to the region.

Birk, Commonsensetarian and Citizen of The Republic, Mob of One, Sage in the Snuggie.

PS: I'm standing by my prediction that Hillary "will hit the silk" soon. Frankly, I thought she would have used Bill's recent heart-issue as a handy and sympathetic exit strategy.

If she is going to mount a campaign to challenge Obama for the nomination and position herself as the savior the Democrat Party...she'll have to move soon.

After the mid-term elections it will be too late.

Hillary needs to leave really soon, so she can return as a Heroine.

If she bails after a Democrat Massacre in 2010...she'll look like a rat running down the ropes of a sinking ship.

The image of Hillary of Arc riding back to the rescue in shining silver armor is a far better image, methinks.

But what do I know...

O Ship Of State vs O State Of Hip. Reagan:Obama - My How Far We've Come In The Wrong Direction, At Least In This Midwest Dummy's Opinion.

Dear Pals,

In the very first chapter of her book When Character Was King - A Story Of Ronald Reagan, Peggy Noonan recounts the story of the launching of the aircraft carrier Ronald Reagan CVN 76, Nimitz class.

It is the words spoken by her first Captain Bill Godwin, at a gathering the night before the launching that I found most poignant.

As Noonan reports them, "The ship's logo, the Captain tells us, has four stars for the 'four pillars of freedom' - liberty, opportunity, global democracy and national pride. Below the stars the ship will bear the motto. 'It's one some of you will recognize,' he says. 'It says, Peace Through Strength."

Captain Goodwin also related that he was a flight instuctor on the USS Eisenhower the day Ronald Reagan walked into the White House.

"We were waiting for the [Irananian] hostages to come home." Noonan continues, "Those were bad days for the military he says, and his plan was to get his golden wings and then go fly for Delta. But when Ronald Reagan came in things got better, and he decided to make a career of the Navy.

Captain Goodwin concluded his talk by saying, "I'm a product of the Reagan Administration."

____________________________________

It made me think about the poem O Ship Of State by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

I think it's worth sharing with you today.

O Ship Of State

Thou, too, sail on, O Ship of State!
Sail on, O Union, strong and great!
Humanity with all its fears,
With all the hopes of future years,
Is hanging breathless on thy fate!
We know what Master laid thy keel,
What Workmen wrought thy ribs of steel,
Who made each mast, and sail, and rope,
What anvils rang, what hammers beat,
In what a forge and what a heat
Were shaped the anchors of thy hope!

Fear not each sudden sound and shock,
'Tis of the wave and not the rock;
'Tis but the flapping of the sail,
And not a rent made by the gale!
In spite of rock and tempest's roar,
In spite of false lights on the shore,
Sail on, nor fear to breast the sea!
Our hearts, our hopes, are all with thee.
Our hearts, our hopes, our prayers, our tears,
Our faith triumphant o'er our fears,
Are all with thee, -are all with thee

PS: Senator George Allen, quoting President Ronald Wilson Reagan, said this the day the Ronald Reagan was launched. "History comes and history goes, but principles endure, and ensure future generations will defend liberty not as a gift from government, but as a blessing from our Creator."

I don't know where the Ronald Reagan and her crew is tonight...but I'd like to echo the cry of the Vietnamese refugees who were the boat people crowed into a wave-tossed boat in the Indochina seas, who once called out to a sailor on the deck of another American carrier, the Midway.

"Hello American sailor! Hello Freedom Man!"

Sail on Ronald Reagan, we know what Master laid thy keel.

I wonder how "The Gipper" might be handling the current Iranian crisis and all the other issues and threats to the Union from enemies foreign and domestic and on Capitol Hill.

I don't think he'd be apologizing for America at every opportunity in every international forum or waffling before morally dishonest regimes of thugs and liars.
