Conservatives in Hiding

It seems that I have become part the underground Conservative party.  I am part of a group of people that believe so many things that once were part of the foundation of our great country, but has now faded into that grey area that can be "adjusted" as we see fit.

As a conservative in hiding, I find that I must be careful what I say in public as I may be accused being and uneducated buffoon.  If I say what I think to people about what I see to be reality, and fact I am ridiculed, and told that I am a hateful person, that does not want to see people be the best that they can.  Well that could not be further from what I hold to be true.  In these times, I feel that the very core of Americas beliefs set forth by our founding fathers are being tried and tested.  

As a part of this post I want to do something that I did a long time ago, but I think needs to be re-done.  I am going to type my list of things that I believe, and here they are.

1. I believe that the "Pursuit of happiness" reads as it says, and not "the guarantee of happiness."
2. I believe that most people do not know what is is the constitution as they have not read it only once or twice in high school or not at all.
3. That it is a god given right to fail, and to fail really bad.  It is also a person right to get THEMSELVES up and go and win.
4. If we take someone right to fail away, as a result mans right to succeed is also taken from us.
5. Obama is a liar, and one of best the world has ever seen
6. Things must ALWAYS get worse before they can get better
7. Gay marriage is wrong no matter how they feel, there is nothing that is right about it
8. It is mans right to be stupid
9. It is mans right to be as smart as he can
10. It is a mans right to make people pay for services
11. NOTHING in life is free
12. Welfare is abused and Democrats use it as a tool to gain votes, and as a result that ones that really do need some sort of assistance are denied for it.
12. McCain was a bad choice as well as Obama
13. Obama is worse
14. Most of Obamas supporters don't have a clue
15. the fairness doctrine is censorship, contrary what the Democrats would have people think
16. President Obama, and the Democratic party, and CNN has on more than one occasion mad a mockery of the office of the presidency.
17. Obama made a bold faced lie about what kind of people he would elect to his cabinet
18. If a Republican made the same nominations the News networks would crucify him/her
19. I DON'T GIVE A FLIP THAT BARRAK IS BLACK.  IT DOES NOT MATTER TO ME!  Not because I am racist but because I am not racist, and if you don't get that I am not going to explain it.  
20. If govt spending was the key to a strong economy then we would have the strongest economy in the world
21. Fighting the Iraq war was the right thing to do.  
22. Bush made many mistake as all Presidents do, but I am Proud of the job that he did. 
23. If I met President Bush I would shake his hand and tell him that I never did not support him, I stood by him always.  (I hope that one day I get that honer)
24. I would shake President Obmamas hand out of respect only, and that is it
25. Obamamania makes me want to puke
26. I am sick of people thinking that President Obama is our saviour and the most glorious person ever to walk the earth
27. I am sick of Govt. hypocrisy. (from both sides)
28. Job Biden is not even remotely close to an Average Person, he doesn't have a clue.
29. No one in govt is like that.
30. I still don't understand how preventing the spread of STD's will help the economy
31. That woman who asked Obama for a house got a very different treatment because she was Democrat and appealing to progressive socialist ideals.  If she was a Republican I imagine much like Joe the Plumber.
32. Democrats are scared of Conservatives with opinions, and I think they want all of us to be silenced
33. Glenn Beck, Rush, and all the others I think are right on
34. Nancy Pelosi can't be our best choice for a speaker.  
35. People should speak English in this country
36. Universal Health care is a bad idea
37. Free Health care is not a right
38. Free Food is not a right
39. People should not be forced to help others
40. Guns should not be taken away from the people
41. The Constitution is NOT a living document.  The Lord inspired it, and I don't thin he was wrong
42. The day that we start removing God from society, and Govt. that is the day we begin preparing the destruction of our Country.
43. Terrorist do not have Rights
44. POW's don't have rights.  
45. Our Enemies are not playing by the same set of rules
46. We are at war right now, and it is a bigger more deadly war that most people realize
47. I am scared of what Obama and other Socialistic Govt leaders are going to do to our country
48. Obama is Wrong
49. It pains me to see people fail, and if I can I wan to help them.  However I want to see them fail so that they can get up and be better for it.
50. I have failed and I learned the most from the times that I was down.  Yea it was hard, and I don't want to do it again, but I never would want someone to Rob me of those experiences.

That is all for now.  Please feel free to add to this list in comments yourself.  God bless the USA, and May we all open our eyes and see what is right in front of us.

We the people . . . are really kind of sad (Wall-Mart Employee Trampled)

This past weekend on black Friday a Wal-Mart Employee was trampled to death by shoppers trying to get their Wii, Playstation, Sweet new Ipod or some other device or item that was knocked down 25%.  I am absolutely disgusted with the type of person that would think "oh my Gosh I MUST get to that thing first!  The person behind me will help the person I just stepped on! MUST GET IT FIRST!!!!"  Now I know that I am exaggerating a a bit, but the point stands that it is sad that this happened, and that it happened so people could SHOP!!!!  

The following is an expert from the NY Times about it.

"The throng of Wal-Mart shoppers had been building all night, filling sidewalks and stretching across a vast parking lot at the Green Acres Mall in Valley Stream, N.Y. At 3:30 a.m., the Nassau County police had to be called in for crowd control, and an officer with a bullhorn pleaded for order.

Tension grew as the 5 a.m. opening neared. Someone taped up a crude poster: “Blitz Line Starts Here.”

By 4:55, with no police officers in sight, the crowd of more than 2,000 had become a rabble, and could be held back no longer. Fists banged and shoulders pressed on the sliding-glass double doors, which bowed in with the weight of the assault. Six to 10 workers inside tried to push back, but it was hopeless.

Suddenly, witnesses and the police said, the doors shattered, and the shrieking mob surged through in a blind rush for holiday bargains. One worker, Jdimytai Damour, 34, was thrown back onto the black linoleum tiles and trampled in the stampede that streamed over and around him. Others who had stood alongside Mr. Damour trying to hold the doors were also hurled back and run over, witnesses said.

Some workers who saw what was happening fought their way through the surge to get to Mr. Damour, but he had been fatally injured, the police said. Emergency workers tried to revive Mr. Damour, a temporary worker hired for the holiday season, at the scene, but he was pronounced dead an hour later at Franklin Hospital Medical Center in Valley Stream.

Four other people, including a 28-year-old woman who was described as eight months pregnant, were treated at the hospital for minor injuries.

......

Some shoppers who had seen the stampede said they were shocked. One of them, Kimberly Cribbs of Queens, said the crowd had acted like “savages.” Shoppers behaved badly even as the store was being cleared, she recalled.

“When they were saying they had to leave, that an employee got killed, people were yelling, ‘I’ve been on line since yesterday morning,’ ” Ms. Cribbs told The Associated Press. “They kept shopping.” "  Here is the link to the article 

I leave it up to you all to decide what you think about that. 

Is it really that big of deal that this happened?  Is it really just an "accident?"  


P.s.  This is NOT Wal-Mart's Fault, and the Union in that area that is attacking Wal-Mart for this is pathetic for trying to capitalize on this persons death from uncivilized people that came to shop there.  too bad the people responsible can't be prosecuted because it will be to hard to prove anything.
