A Glimpse?
Posted on | November 20, 2008 | 1 Comment
On October 22nd, I wrote “Who Is Driving The Market Collapse?” which posited:
There is someone or multiple somebodies behind the drive in the last hour each day pushing the market to collapse and then pushing the American public to panic and vote for Barack Obama’s socialist agenda.
I will start digging….I already have a pretty good idea, but nothing to back it up yet….keep ya posted….
UPDATE: George Soros may or may not be involved in this, but everybody needs to start thinking bigger and stop looking for the culprits on our shores……
I was wrong about one thing; getting The One elected is not the only motive for the people that are involved, and rest assured, there is more than just one, two or three people involved. I have been watching the chess game happen each day with our market; some days the good guys win, some days the bad guys win. Currently the bad guys have the upper hand. The defeat of the Auto Bailout today and the look of dissappointment on Pelosi and Reid’s faces made me smile, but then I remembered that the Communist Party here in this country WANTS the Big 3 to collapse….so do we save them because the Communists consider the failure a way to move their anti-American agenda forward?
Anyways, back to the point at hand….
I started digging and came up empty as to actual evidence, and felt that waiting for “possible players” to surface was going to be the only way to start piecing this particular puzzle together. Today, a possible player, and I repeat, possible player has surfaced. According to International Business Times:
NEW YORK - Citigroup Inc. shares tumbled below $5 a share Thursday to their lowest level in more than 15 years, a sign that a Saudi prince’s decision to boost his stake in the bank has failed to galvanize confidence among increasingly anxious investors.
Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, a longtime investor in Citigroup, said he plans to increase his stake in the bank to 5 percent from less than 4 percent. He also expressed “his full and complete support” of the bank’s management–including Vikram Pandit, who has been CEO for less than a year.
Draw your own conclusions folks, but my theory includes, but is not limited to, the Middle East; I just can’t prove it yet. Ask yourselves, what is the payoff if Citigroup comes back from the brink, and/or what is the payoff if Citigroup collapses and the resulting effect on our economy?
At this point, we can either start buying Citigroup stock or we can wait for the Saudi Prince to lose his money….which horse do you want to bet on?

Four days ago I wrote Stop Preaching To The Choir about what ALL anti-obamanation voters will need to do to defeat The One in 4 years. I know quite a few of you have read and commented on it and maybe, I am once again, ahead of my time or a legend in my own mind….I don’t know which, BUT damn, if it is not still ringing true.
Tomorrow will mark two weeks since our country was bamboozeled into voting for the empty chair and now I am reading that Senator Clinton will accept the SOS job from, of all newspapers?….the Guardian UK. This post is not all about HRC, but I thought I would throw the tidbit out there.
Hillary Clinton plans to accept the job of secretary of state offered by Barack Obama, who is reaching out to former rivals to build a broad coalition administration, the Guardian has learned.
Obama’s advisers have begun looking into Bill Clinton’s foundation, which distributes millions of dollars to Africa to help with development, to ensure that there is no conflict of interest. But Democrats do not believe that the vetting is likely to be a problem.
Clinton would be well placed to become the country’s dominant voice in foreign affairs, replacing Condoleezza Rice. Since being elected senator for New York, she has specialised in foreign affairs and defence. Although she supported the war in Iraq, she and Obama basically agree on a withdrawal of American troops.
Clinton, who still harbours hopes of a future presidential run, had to weigh up whether she would be better placed by staying in the Senate, which offers a platform for life, or making the more uncertain career move to the secretary of state job.
So there you have it. The final nail in HRC’s coffin with her base, and one can hope that it will be the end of her political career as The One will throw her to the lions when it suits him. Does that anger some people? It should not; what should anger you is that she betrayed her promise to you, me, and the rest of the 18 million, campaigned for the empty suit and now is going to be doing his bidding, giving up a more powerful position and joining the Progressive Socialist Party. Oops, did I say joining? That is incorrect, since I know from my research for the Socialism articles that she was trained by Alinsky too and is an integral part of bringing globalism to our shores. Are any of the scales falling from your eyes yet?
Please take a moment to think about this; she did not have to campaign her soul out for him, did she? She does not have to take the position of SOS, does she? Did The One pay off her campaign debt YET? Please ask yourselves, what is her payoff? What does she gain from crawling up from the foot of the bed?
Now, back to the post at hand. Same as it ever was…..I just took a jaunt around to the PUMA sites and the conservative blogs and by and large they are STILL TALKING ABOUT THE SAME OLD SHIT! Misogyny, sexism, Hillary don’t do it, and why Obama beat the Republicans. Excuse me…but how long is it going to take people to WAKE UP? Are all you folks going to be talking about these same issues in 4 years when this bastard gets re-elected? Have you taken the time to join all the grassroots efforts, (PUMA and Conservative, no matter what your party affiliation), listed in the blogroll in LARGE CAPS? That is what it is going to take to nail his ass the second time around, and keep the global socialists from being in power for more than 8 freakin’ years.
I am thinking that if everybody is going to be sitting around blogging and bitching about the same old stuff, then you might as well pack it up right now….you are not doing anything but exactly what The One wants you to. He wants you bitching about the little issues and not forming the grassroots army to match his own that is already light years ahead of his opposition and is growing moment by moment. You are not paying attention to what will make the difference, you are just having one big pity party. Meanwhile, this snake oil salesman: 
and this group of power and money hungry frauds:
are going to be controlling this country and turning it into another EU State along with the help of the Clintons.
Hele Mai!

I know quite a few people have read this quote from Thomas Jefferson in the past few days:
When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the
government fears the people, there is liberty.
I have seen the fear and heard the stories of people suffering shell shock from the outcome of our presidential election. I myself was physically ill for days with the complete and total “wrongness” of this outcome. It is time to shake it off, suck it up and do what Americans do in the face of great adversity; come together as one.
As you can see, my site is undergoing massive changes in keeping with what others may consider to be an impossible mission that I have set for myself. My PUMAs have gone back off to their lair and the Monster has a new face as I no longer consider myself a PUMA, rather an American first with no party affiliation, and no party agenda to follow or protect.
You will also notice that my blogroll is a compilation of PUMA, Moderate, and Conservative sites. This blogroll will continue to grow as I reach out to all true patriotic Americans that want to continue to watch, report and impede the socialist agenda of the President Elect, Nancy, Chris, Barney, Harry and the rest of the “Progressive Socialist Party”. We will need EVERYONE together to push back the far left liberal wing of the Democratic Party.
I am sure there will be quite a few people that want to ask me “who do you think you are?” after they read what comes next, but I felt that it needed to be said out loud and there is no better time than the present.
This message is for all the people that voted for McCain, and those voters that stayed home and did not get out to the polls for the McCain/Palin ticket, and are now completely aghast, or coming to the realization, that our country is going to be pulled down to the level of a member of the EU, and a socialist state.
I am urging all that read these words to put away partisanship and issue driven arguments. We no longer have the luxury of labeling ourselves with a party affiliation. I know that every group will have their own agendas from caucus/primary reform to women’s issues to getting back to basics concerning the conservative republicans, but if all of these people and groups do not come together to defeat The One and Nancy Pelosi and her Gang, it will not matter what your agendas are because our country and Constitution will have been fundamentally changed by the politicians that now hold power. Your agendas will not matter…
I am asking all that really believe this Presidency was just another instance of purchasing the White House to stand up as Americans and reach out to every other person who wants to make sure that OUR White House will no longer be for sale. It has been 7 days since the Obamanation bought the White House with suspect money, and there are millions of people and probably hundreds of thousands of groups that NEED to join together to take OUR COUNTRY BACK from the corrupt politicians that have been, and will continue to be, in charge of our government. Now is the time for Democrats, Republicans and Independents to drop their party affiliations, their issue driven differences, and form ONE coalition to bring true reform to both parties, and bring balance back to our government. We are America….not the people that we elected who continue to ignore us.
For those PUMAs out in the sphere, it is now time to stop excluding each other, the moderates, and dare I say, the conservatives. I know that everyone that was supporting Hillary, and then working to stop The One’s election have gotten very badly beaten up emotionally and have tended to band together in little groups. It is now time for that cocooning to stop, and PUMAs to continue their march toward fair and free elections as a united front with Moderates and Conservatives. PUMAs, you have been forged in the fires of hell and are tempered steel now. PUMAs must form alliances with any group that has government reform as their agenda. For those Moderates and Conservatives out there, I greatly appreciate the comments I have seen here and on other sites thanking the PUMAs for their relentless pursuit of a true democracy without voter fraud and MSM bias. We have noticed.
Moderates and Conservatives, the message is the same for you. Everyone has their own agendas, but now OUR country is in serious danger of becoming even less than what she was with The One’s socialist associates and agenda in the White House. Getting back to the basics and rebuilding the Republican Party is not going to matter if The One wins re-election and the “Progressive Socialist Party” passes more laws that move this country toward European Socialist status. We have less than 18 months to get our grassroots army together to fight The One’s re-election.
Is everyone feeling me yet? It is time to look at the bigger picture of what is happening in our country with these Saul Alinsky trained socialists. I have not yet seen anyone step up and start an inclusive list of all groups that want government reform. If we all stay in our own little part of the world, preaching to our own choirs, the massive reform we need will never happen. The conversation needs to go across party lines and affiliations. Knowledge is power. The links in this chain must be forged and quickly. Conservatives must join PUMA groups and PUMAs must embrace Conservatives and Moderates.
I currently stand 100% behind Wake Up America; a grassroots organization that understands political election dynamics, but I will be reaching out to all groups and trying to bring them together in one coalition. The President Elect won this election on the basis of two major factors.
- He understood that Americans are a truly HOPEFILLED people. We would not have been able to accomplish the major events in our history without being people of stature to begin with. We all believe that situations can be made better. The President Elect played on this major strength by calling for Hope and Change.
- The President Elect has a legion of millions of people on the ground doing the work at the grassroots level. What usually happens to an outnumbered army?
I am currently compiling a list of groups. If this goal is achieved, I will start another website for that purpose only.
Please leave links to groups you have found that should be included. I can be contacted at my email address: DiamondTiger12 at gmail doc com.
(Author’s Note: I am going to leave this on the front page for a few days because I believe more people need to see it and start looking at the positive. I refuse to be sucked into the black hole of chaos currently occupying the space taken up by the President Elect and His Wife.)
(Update: 11/15/08: The backlash begins with the Monster being taken off PUMA blogrolls…I will write a post on that soon.)
The Fannie & Freddie Twins….
Posted on | November 13, 2008 | 3 Comments
Sultan Knish has written an article that deserves mass attention. Make sure to go to the link below and read the entire article.
Obama and the Democratic Congress’ Looting of America
While the US government is far from uncorrupted, the kind of massive uncontrolled theft usually seen in Arab and African countries or Putin’s Russia, has been absent from the American experience. Until now.
Obama has not yet taken power, but the Democrat led looting of America is well and truly underway. Obama has already brought in former Freddie Mac board member Rahm Emmanuel as his Chief of Staff and is now considering Jamie Gorelick, the former Vice Chairman of Fannie Mae as his Attorney General.
What that means is that two key people in the entire mortgage disaster that trashed the American economy will hold two of the top positions in Obama’s cabinet… and that is no coincidence at all. It’s only the beginning.
Already 2 Trillion Dollars (2,000,000,000,000) in emergency loans have been handed out without disclosure. To put that into context, the Democratic Congress has spent more money in a month on sweetheart loans for their business pals than the cost of the entire Iraq War over Bush’s entire second term.
Of course you shouldn’t expect to see the media running any of those stories they used to run on the Iraq War, detailing how many school lunches or health care plans the massive economic boondoggle shepherded through by two of Obama’s future cabinet members could have bought.
And when Obama hangs up a “Mission Accomplished” banner even while the economy is a disaster, and the price of bread has hit an all time high thanks to the Biofuels boondoggle pushed by Obama for his own profit, stand back and watch for the cheering from the media corps.

Stop Moping! Time To Act!

Okay people, the time to be moping around and fearful is OVER! When have we Americans not helped someone in need? We now have a disaster that has and is still occurring inside the borders of the United States. What? You did not hear about it on CNN? You are not going to be hearing about this disaster on any MSM in the United States. Here’s why…it concerns the Lakota Nation in South Dakota and the blizzard on November 7th.
It is time to get out your credit cards and send aid to Americans! Go here; you can read the rest of the article after you do that. Thank you in advance for whatever help you may be able to give, and you may be surprised at how much better you feel afterwards!!! Bloggers, please repost this and leave a link everywhere you go!
On November 7th, a blizzard of epic proportions hit South Dakota. According to the AP:
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — As snowfall neared 4 feet in the Black Hills and winds gusting higher than 50 mph continued to howl, state officials had a simple message for anyone thinking of trying to drive in western South Dakota’s blizzard: Don’t.
…
The storm already has dropped 45.7 inches of snow near Deadwood, in the northern Black Hills. Reports of 10 inches to 2 feet of snow were received from many West River counties. In some towns, residents reported drifts were blocking their doorways, and in the southwestern corner of the state, 20-foot snowdrifts were reported on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation.
What has was not stated and has not been written about is what is contained in an email I received:
It is not often I send something like this out, and am sad to have to do so.
However, anything any of you can do would be great, mention it on your radio
shows and blogs, call and help or even call the state reps. and committee of
indian affairs…Here is the email I got,,,Where is the Red Cross? Where is FEMA? Where is the National Guard?
The Lakota Reservation in South Dakota has been struck with a huge,
early season snow storm. Elderly people are without propane, there is
a great lack of food, medicine and warm winter clothing.According tho the president of the Reservation, the State of South
Dakota is doing almost nothing. The roads are still not plowed and
people are dieing.They need our help in way of wood, propane, warm winter clothing,
food and assistance with plows.If you are in the area and have the heart to help these folks, go to
the Porcupine School or call 605-867-1111.If you can, send money, call and get details on arrangements. If you

or this from the Republic of Lakota website and Russell Means (because the tribal leaders are missing):
STATE OF EMERGENCY
INTERNATIONAL DISASTER DECLARATION
info@republicoflakotah.com, 605-867-1025
RE: Oglala Sioux Pine Ridge Indian Reservation
STATE OF EMERGENCYGovernor Michael Rounds of South Dakota has declared the State a disaster area. However, Indian Reservations are NOT included in the declaration.
I, Russell Means, due to the total absence of Tribal Government and its leadership, and as candidate for Tribal President and Chief Facilitator of the Republic of Lakotah, am declaring an INTERNATIONAL STATE OF EMERGENCY.
The reason for this declaration is two-fold: 1) The current life-threatening severe weather conditions and 2) The ongoing genocidal policies of the United States Government that still remain unaddressed:
- Unknown thousands are still stranded by high snow drifts for 3rd straight day.
- Unknown number of people without heat and/or electricity.
- Impassable road conditions preventing emergency services and propane deliveries.
- Confirmed fatality due to inability to get to dialysis treatment. Status of other dialysis patients is unknown.
- Second fatality bled to death due to no emergency services.
- Tribal President Steele and Vice President Brewer’s whereabouts unknown as reported by Officers of the Bureau of Indian Affairs (B.I.A.).
- Officers rescue mother with new born and 2-year old child from heatless home.
- Tribal Police dispatch unable to determine road conditions.
- Wide-spread telephone service interruptions.
- Hardest hit is the eastern portion of the Reservation, which includes Pass Creek, Eagle Nest and Medicine Root Districts. Also Red Shirt Table, Cuny Table, Slim Buttes,Oglala and Porcupine communities.
- Unconfirmed reports of National Guard due to arrive today.
Genocidal Results of the Failed American Indian Policies of the United States Government:
MORTALITY:
- Lakotah men have a life expectancy of less than 44 years, lowest of any country in the World (excluding AIDS) including Haiti.
- Lakotah death rate is the highest in the United States.
- The Lakotah infant mortality rate is 300% more than the U.S. Average.
- One out of every four Lakotah children born are fostered or adopted out to non-Indian homes.
- Diseases such as tuberculosis, polio, etc. are present. Cancer is now at epidemic proportions!
- Teenage suicide rate is 150% higher than the U.S national average for this group.
POVERTY:
- Median income is approximately $2,600 to $3,500 per year.
- 97% of our Lakotah people live below the poverty line.
- Many families cannot afford heating oil, wood or propane and many residents use ovens to heat their homes.
UNEMPLOYMENT:
- Unemployment rates on our reservations are 80% or higher.
- Government funding for job creation is lost through cronyism and corruption.
HOUSING:
- Elderly die each winter from hypothermia (freezing).
- 1/3 of the homes lack basic clean water and sewage while 40% lack electricity.
- 60% of Reservation families have no telephone.
- 60% of housing is infected with potentially fatal black molds.
- There is an estimated average of 17 people living in each family home (may only have two to three rooms). Some homes, built for 6 to 8 people, have up to 30 people living in them.
DRUGS AND ALCOHOL:
- More than half the Reservation’s adults battle addiction and disease.
- Alcoholism affects 9 in 10 families.
- Two known meth-amphetamine labs allowed to continue operation. Why?
DISEASE:
- The Tuberculosis rate on Lakotah reservations is approx. 800% higher than the U.S national average.
- Cervical cancer is 500% higher than the U.S national average.
- The rate of diabetes is 800% higher than the U.S national average.
- Federal Commodity Food Program provides high sugar foods that kill Native people through diabetes and heart disease.
INCARCERATION:
- Indian children incarceration rate 40% higher than whites.
- In South Dakota, 21 percent of state prisoners are American Indians, yet they only make up 2% of the population.
- Indians have the second largest state prison incarceration rate in the nation.
- Most Indians live on federal reservations. Less than 2% of Indians live where the state has jurisdiction!
THREATENED CULTURE:
- Only 14% of the Lakotah population can speak the Lakotah language.
- The language is not being shared inter-generationally. Today, the average age of a fluent Lakotah speaker is 65 years.
- Our Lakotah language is an Endangered Language, on the verge of extinction.
Our Lakotah language is not allowed to be taught in the U.S. Government schools.
Since our government is not helping the Lakota Nation that was placed on this reservation:

Ready To “Rule”
Posted on | November 9, 2008 | 2 Comments
“is ready to take power and be ready to rule day one”
This is Valerie Jarret; The co-chair of The One’s Transition Team. Pay attention to this woman behind the scenes. As far as I have been able to keep track, this is the only woman that the President Elect’s Wife trusts around the President Elect. I will posting more about Jarret in the future; suffice it to say, she is from Chicago….
Update: A interesting article from Vogue about Valerie Jarret.
Senator Obama has one secret weapon in his wife, Michelle. The other is his chief confidante and valued adviser, Chicago businesswoman Valerie Jarrett. Just who is this hidden tower of strength? asks Jonathan Van Meter.
Photographed by Jonathan Becker.
One day in the summer of 1991, when Valerie Jarrett was Chicago mayor Richard Daley’s deputy chief of staff, the woman who worked in the office next door to Jarrett handed her the résumé of one Michelle LaVaughn Robinson. Robinson was a young lawyer at Sidley Austin, the fifth-largest law firm in the world, doing marketing and intellectual-property work in their headquarters nearby. The résumé highlighted the fact that the 27-year-old had grown up on the South Side of Chicago, had gone to Princeton and then to Harvard Law; what it did not point out was that her father, a city water-pump operator and Democratic precinct captain, had died of multiple sclerosis the year before, a shocking blow that led to a change of heart in the young lawyer about her choices in life. On the cover letter, someone at City Hall had written something like THIS WOMAN IS NO LONGER INTERESTED IN BEING AT HER LAW FIRM. SHE WANTS TO BE IN GOVERNMENT AND GIVE BACK. Susan Sher, the woman who worked in the office next to Jarrett, said, “She is made for you. This is exactly what you did.” Jarrett immediately picked up the phone and called the young lawyer in for an interview.
Go to the Vogue link above to read the rest.
The Gun To Our Heads….
Posted on | November 9, 2008 | 8 Comments
The Monster is no longer angry; The Monster is resolved.
After 8 years of President Bush’s crazed leadership, the country has now elected another loser, and upgraded the type of firearm being held to the country’s proverbial head. If every other American wants to close their eyes, put their hands in the air and believe that every gas tank is going to be full and every mortgage is going to be magically paid; go right ahead, this American born to immigrants, and a student of American History, is not going to be following the masses off that cliff.
I may be the voice in the wilderness, but I will not congratulate the President Elect on winning the election and the White House because I still believe in the American philosophy of “It is not whether you win or lose, but how you play the game”, and I believe that the corrupt Democratic Party has FINALLY beaten the corrupt Republican Party at it’s own “Rovian Game”, and taken the buying of an American Presidency to new levels. I refuse to be gracious under these circumstances, and I would be a hypocrite if I did so.
I admit I am a hard sell. In 1999, during the WTO Conference, I was working close to the hotel that the convention participants were staying at. I was questioned by a co-worker when I was not fawning over the idea of having President Clinton so close by. I was asked “Who would impress you?” My reply? “I would be impressed if Jesus Christ, Thomas Jefferson, or Ghandi walked through the door”. I liked President Clinton, and I feel he was a good president, but fawn over someone that has to put his pants on one leg at a time just like everybody else? Nope. Look at each of our presidents and there is usually some type of scandal associated with their presidencies. It is human nature to abuse power. Our presidents are riding a breakneck, bucking, wild stallion and just trying to hold on for dear life, usually against an opposing Congress. They are not creating anything like the above mentioned persons.
Once again, I will state what I have said numerous times:
America is a democratic, capitalist country and the barometer for its strength is not the size of it’s military, it is the condition of it’s economy; like it or not.
Our President is the most important CEO in the world, and looking back, I have yet to see one since the Founding Fathers who really understood that statement. President Clinton came closest, but he gave us NAFTA, and look what that has done to our economy and job growth…
As for the President Elect, I will not be blackmailed into helping this Chicago politician in hopes he and the Dean/Pelosi/Dodd/Reid/Frank gang do not screw up our country anymore than it already is. I will continue to support anyone that blocks his/their lunatic ideas to turn this country into a socialist one. I am taking that gun away from my head and I suggest you do so as well. I will not be blackmailed into supporting the “Progressive Socialist Party” that has taken control of the White House and the Congress.
If you are as resolved as I am and want to get involved, go here.
A few more tidbits to think about from one of the people who brought you the United States,
Thomas Jefferson:
When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.
The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.
The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions that I wish it to be always kept alive.
All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.
Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of liberty.
A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor and bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government
Every government degenerates when trusted to the rulers of the people alone. The people themselves are its only safe depositories.
Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny.
I sincerely believe that banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies, and that the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity, under the name of funding, is but swindling futurity on a large scale.
It is error alone which needs the support of government. Truth can stand by itself.
It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world.
My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government.
Leave no authority existing not responsible to the people. (I Hope Dodd and Frank read this one.)

Anybody Remember This Document?
Posted on | November 7, 2008 | 3 Comments
The President Elect has his new website up and running; Change.gov. Just wanted to get that out of the way and tell my readers that I have been poking around off and on for about 18 hours. Found something interesting:
America Serves
“When you choose to serve — whether it’s your nation, your community or simply your neighborhood — you are connected to that fundamental American ideal that we want life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness not just for ourselves, but for all Americans. That’s why it’s called the American dream.”The Obama Administration will call on Americans to serve in order to meet the nation’s challenges. President-Elect Obama will expand national service programs like AmeriCorps and Peace Corps and will create a new Classroom Corps to help teachers in underserved schools, as well as a new Health Corps, Clean Energy Corps, and Veterans Corps. Obama will call on citizens of all ages to serve America, by developing a plan to require 50 hours of community service in middle school and high school and 100 hours of community service in college every year. Obama will encourage retiring Americans to serve by improving programs available for individuals over age 55, while at the same time promoting youth programs such as Youth Build and Head Start.
Remember This Document:
I suggest that if you do not have a copy of this document and the attached amendments; GET ONE!
The Thirteenth Amendent:
The Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution officially abolished and continues to prohibit slavery, and with limited exceptions, such as those convicted of a crime, prohibits involuntary servitude. It was adopted on December 6, 1865.
PUMAs Saw This Coming…Moderate Republicans…Not So Much
Posted on | November 7, 2008 | 5 Comments
Post Election Evening in Phillie as videotaped by a resident of that once great city. PUMAs, this video will probably make you throw up, (as I just did)…so brace yourselves. Moderate Republicans should be ashamed of themselves for not going to the polls and voting to protect our Constitution.
A McCain/Palin supporter was foolish enough to walk into what looks to be a “recreation of Kenya” wearing a McCain/Palin shirt. The police arrested this man for wearing said shirt, (even though they probably saved his life), his right to the First Amendment was violated and with his diminishment, we have all been diminished.
h/t to MsPlacedDemocrat for the video.
(Author’s Note: Since it is post election the Obamanation is allowed to post comments as long as they are not totally vile - so have at it Obots - start with the racial and gender slurs….I’m ready)(One More Thing…The only enjoyment I am going to get over the course of the next 1,534 days until Obama’s Regime is tossed out is this: We Told You So!)
