The death of America and who is to blame

Someone had posted the following quote on my wall a couple of days after the election on Tuesday, and it is oh so very true

IN MEMORIUM: The United States, 236, of America, died at 11:59 p.m., Tuesday, November 6, 2012. Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, she was the daughter of George and Martha Washington. She has been a light, and inspiration, to the masses who have embraced her open arms, seeking freedom and liberty. She was a beacon of hope, to the oppressed of the world. She was non-denominational, but could be heard whispering, "In God We Trust." She was an artist that enjoyed painting picturesque mountains and flowing fields of grain, landscapes and wildlife of all kinds. She encouraged everyone who visited, to enjoy and engage in her favorite activities; gardening, sewing, quilting, planting flowers, and cooking her many ethnic dishes. In her younger years she was an avid explorer and pioneer. She is survived by countless children of all ages, devastated by her untimely passing. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by untold patriots and great armies that have protected her blessed name and dedicated spirit. Friends of Miss Liberty are asked to share her legacy and pray for her deliverance.

Now, as far as who to blame for Romney's loss Tuesday which evidently led to the death of America, I think we ought to lay the blame on the three groups that deserve it.(WARNING: graphic language ahead)

1.) The Occupy movement: Yes I know they are not around in as full of a force as they were this time last year, but they were the major lynchpin in the downfall of America.
2.) The third party HACKS: If it were not for the third party candidates like Virgil Goode, Roseanne Barr, Jill Stein and more importantly Gary FUCKING Johnson I think Mitt Romney would have won the election. Here in Florida, Romney is losing (as the count is still going on) by 64,185 votes. Had the third party candidates (who combined had 68,576 votes with Gary Johnson grabbing 44,418 votes) voted for Romney, then he would have won Florida outright. Hell, I think it would have ben the same in the other states as well.

3.) The voting electorate as a whole. In 2009 a video had first been floated about where people who had voted for Obama (who ranged in ages from 18 - 80) were asked simple, basic questions about who was in charge of our nation, who Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid were, and other questions about politics that a 5th fucking grader should know, and they had no motherfucking clue on ANY of them! Take a look at this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3ZLJj_q4xI is the link to the 10 minute video) and you will see what I mean.

I know there are others who deserve it as well, but these three groups I mentioned deserve the brunt of it and should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. When I say this, I do not mean prosecuted in an actual court but rather in the court of public opinion, where it rightfully belongs.

And while I am at it, can we all agree that TRENDS and OMENS are irrelevant? As I went to get the paper on Wednesday (and also walk into a tree with my fist in the process) I was thinking about the following trends and omens we had on our side this election:
1.) EVERY election held on November 6 since Abraham Lincoln was elected in 1860 had gone to the Republicans
2.) The last 3 Governors to be nominated to run v incumbent Presidents have won.
3.) The last 3 times incumbent Presidents have lost, they were defeated by a Governor.
4.) The University of Colorado prognostication
5.) The Redskin Rule (Where there is a high correlation between the outcome of the last Washington Redskins home football game prior to the U.S. Presidential Election and the outcome of the election: when the Redskins win, the incumbent party wins the electoral vote for the White House; when the Redskins lose, the non-incumbent party wins. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redskins_Rule for more)
I know there are other trends and omens that I had also heard somewhere but do not know them right off the top of my head.
ALL of them got tossed out the window thanks to Obama and the joke of an election!

Herman Cain had said that stupid people are ruining America, and he is oh so correct. Stupid people ARE ruining America, and we have seen it come out in full force not only in the presidential election, but also in a few of the senate races as well.

The question now we have to consider is what we need to do about it. The answer will be posited on this show and in future editorials.

Rundown for November 10, 2012

Join Rick Bulow and Billie Cotter (Host of Nobamanation every Thursday at 8 PM Eastern on Conservative Nation Radio) as they go through the week in news. Well the election was on Tuesday, and it did not go well. What happened? Who is to blame? And what is next for the GOP and also for America in the next 2 to 4 years? This show will provide everybody a chance to lick their wounds still fresh even 4 days later, then pick up and move on. There will even be a small change in the show which Rick will announce. All this and more including your calls and the ever-popular Schmuck of the Week.
Come join us today at 1:30 PM Eastern, 12:30 PM Central, for “Red, Right, and Blue” as we do an election post-mortem and then figure out how we move ahead. The chatroom at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/conservativennationradio/2012/11/10/red-right-and-blue will open 30 minutes early for a pre-show banter and also some last-minute show prep. If you want to call in to the show, the phone number is 718-305-7176 and you can even use Skype once the show starts. Just scroll up to the top of the screen and the little blue S (or as my good friend the Reactionariez calls it the Skippity Skype) button will appear in the top box next to the phone number is. Just click on the button, follow the instructions from the lovely English lady on the other end, and you will be in the queue and I will bring you in to the conversation.

Even after the election, our work is not done

For many people, the only time they worry about politics is only from the week before to the year before Election Day. They feel that all they have to do is vote and that is it, but is it really? Is there more to politics than just voting?

The answer is that politics is more than just a one phase operation. Sure voting is a part of it, but it is not the only thing. The other part is holding the politicians’ feet to the fire. And one way to that is by checking out The People’s Vote. Chuck Kirkpatrick and DariaAnne DiGiovanni are the two purveyors of the site which seeks to keep the elected politicians – whether it is national, state, or local – honest by giving the people a voice in bills and issues on the legislative docket. And with the current presidential election, the call to hold the politicians’ feet to the fire is needed now more than ever. If Obama wins the White House for a second term and the Republicans win the Senate and keep the House, we need to keep the Republicans in line by telling them to not give in to anything Obama does which bypasses Congress. Conversely, if Romney wins the White House and the Republicans win the House and keep the Senate, then we need to keep the Republicans in line by telling them to hold Romney to many if not all of the promises he had made regarding the repeal of ObamaCare.

This election is VERY WELL the most important election of our lifetime in the fact that if Obama wins a second term, then America as we know it will cease to exist if we do not hold Congress’ feet to the fire. In order for America to remain the best country in the world, both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue should be held accountable.

This election and the war on Coal

My friend Glen Brown had written a very interesting post which pretty much sums up this election and also the War on Coal. So good in fact, that just to keep it in the shadows is not right. Here it is (typos included)

ya know..I have been thinking... What is the use.. of green energy...and protecting the enviroment...if we are the only country that does it? seems to me to be a talking point that really has no basis.. most of the green energy thats talked about..is nowhere near developed enough to really make a difference. Coal Moners have worked for decades in this country.. and helped keep this country moving. I think the War on Coal by the EPA is unfounded..and stupid.
As to the Election.. I think that alot of us are tired of promises.. tired of commercials.. and tired of working our butts off only to hand our money to the government. Social issues be damned. Obama is still the only president in US History to encounter a recession and NOT put a cap on fuel prices. Add that to outright lies..deceiving the American people, and doing his best to try to be a movie star rather than a president.. and that pretty much sums up everything. I'm not a big fan of Romney..but we have had 4 years of watching Obama sit in office and make decisions that have hurt our economy, driven costs of everything up.. and made it harder for the average american to survive. He screams he is for the middle Class...how can that be.. when he is regualting things so baddly..its non existant?

What Glen said is so very true indeed. Coal Miners have worked in America for decades and could keep this country moving. In fact, as one Herman Cain had said when he was running for President we have our own natural resources (coal, oil, natural gas) right here in the United States, but it does us no good just keeping it in the ground while letting the other resource-rich countries leap ahead of us in resource production.

With the exception of a few people, none of us had Mitt Romney as our first choice. In fact, he was my third choice behind Herman Cain and Newt Gingrich. But ladies and gentlemen he is the ONLY choice we have if we want to get Obama OUT of office. We have 10 days to do whatever we can to make it happen, and right now it looks good for our side, with Gallup having Romney up 6 points among likely voters and tied with Obama among registered voters; Rasmussen Reports also has Romney up 4 points among likely voters. We need to do whatever we can to keep the edge going for Romney.

As I had mentioned many times in the past, Atlas is shrugging right now with the weight of the world he is bearing which Obama had added onto the past 4 years. Romney is the only one right now, October 27, 2012, to take some if not all of the weight off of Atlas and make it more manageable until the next election.

More on this Presidential Election

I would like to start this editorial by playing a wonderful video by Bill Whittle of PJTV:

 

What Whittle said is SO VERY TRUE. A vote for anyone BUT Romney this year IS a vote for Obama. IF you want Obama out of the office this year, then the only moral decision you have to make is to VOTE FOR ROMNEY. I had said this in many editorials on this very show (see editorials for October 6, September 29, September 8, August 11, June 23, March 31, and March 24 as well as the entire show for June 23) that a vote for a third party, a no vote, or a write-in vote IS a vote for Barack Obama and the destruction of America as we know it. As Andrew Breitbart had said at CPAC back in February of this year, “If you are not in favor of this candidate for whatever reason, more than shame on you. You’re on the other side!” In fact, let me play that clip, which is my motto for this election, for you.

Andrew Breitbart at CPAC – February, 2012

I said it before, and I will say it again: “IF we do not vote for Mitt Romney in November, then this WILL be our future during an Obama second term”

(Video removed by user. find the audio at http://www.4shared.com/mp3/pNgbGs0m/Palpatine_Speech.html?refurl=d1url

I said it before, and I will say it again. As was mentioned by Joshua after the initial conquest of Canaan (found in the biblical book of Joshua 24:15) “[And] if it disagreeable in your sight to serve the LORD, choose for yourselves today who you will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served which were beyond the River; or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living; but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.” That verse is also applicable today. If it is disagreeable in your sight to vote for Mitt Romney, choose for yourselves today who you will vote for; whether Obama who has led America into the hell it is in; or the other minor candidates who will only serve as a front for Obama this year; but as for me and Conservative Nation Radio, we will vote for Romney.

The battle for America the next month (#WAR and #ThisMeansWAR)

In the Own Your Narrative at the Own The Narrative Network group yesterday, I came across this wonderful post by Bill LaRussa Jr. (aka Titan92 on Own The Narrative and @TonyKatzMane on Twitter):

OK, so quick thing (Alright, maybe not so quick - TWSS):
I was LITERALLY outraged when when I clicked on Drudge in the wee hrs of the morning to see that "Wow, only 114K jobs added in September. Maybe the Unemp rate even went up a tad to 8.2%." Then the outrage started when the # reported was an impossible 7.8%. "How absolutely fucking convenient" I howled to Texas or Busted on a skype call. Not even 2 g-damn days after Obama gets publicly humiliated in front of 70M people at debate, now he can change the subject for the weekend (and likely any momentum) while his sycophants in the media trump up this fraudulent (Yes, I said it, FRAUDULENT) stat to shepherd the 10-20% Idiocracy portion of the voting public.
Now, y'all that know me well enuf know that I was one of the earliest supporters of Mitt Romney during the primary season (around Oct 2011). I stood my ground against all comers & made my arguments - and pissed the shit out of a # of fellow conservatives/libertarians too. But to me it was worth it. Why? Not to sound hokey, but I believed in this guy when most conservatives - and almost all activist ones - did not. I believed then & I believe even more now after Wed debate that Mitt Romney was meant for us as President at this moment in time. I'll spare y'all the laundry list of reasons, but I still believe them. He's even grown as candidate since the primaries.
("Titan, will you get to the effing point already?" Okay, I will.) Having said all this, I had my biggest moment of doubt about Mitt's chances of victory minutes before I clicked offline & finally went to catch some zzzz. My crisis-of-confidence moment now barely a month away from election day, when the rubber finally meets the road. Thinking (and texting to 2 political buddies) "You know, maybe this country really cant handle this whole self-governing experiment. These Chicago political M-fers on the other side will just win no matter how they can win, truth & evidence be damned. Screw it all. Blah blah blah blah blah."
Then I read a story posted by one of my best amigas on the Internets, Karen Siegemund (who I hope I get to some day meet in the real world. Chat her up, she's good people - even for a Blue Stater :)). My random response to the story - about Obama team taking a woman @ Paul Ryan town hall out of context with her question & Paul's subsequent response (Yeah, imagine that!) was "#WAR, Karen." In that moment I was snapped back to reality of what's in front of us: 32 days to get this won & the way to combat these BS tactics by the Chicago Thuggery campaign is by channeling the Late Andrew Breitbart (God rest his soul.). Hell I have his damn pic as my freaking avatar. Give up? HELL NO. 32 days to go & everything we do to help turn out BH Obama should be with one Breitbart quote in mind: WAR! Concede no point to the other side. WAR! Don't even refer to BS manipulated statistics like the reported unemp rate, but state that there are over 24 million people out of work & millions of others working shitty part-time jobs because they have to. WAR! Accuse Mitt Romney of lying during the debate, while your own spokeslady Stephanie Cutter basically concedes Obama lied about the $5T Romney tax cut. WAR!
You see the point. I'm snapped back into it. Hope everyone will be in the foxhole with me for 32 more days, because the tough part hasn't even started yet.
#WAR

What Titan said is oh so very true. We are 31 days away from the election, and we have not even gotten through the toughest part yet. In the words of John Paul Jones, we “have not yet begun to fight!” This election is WAY TOO IMPORTANT to just give up now. We must continue to press ahead if we must endure.

Titan had used the famous quote #WAR in his speech. Let me play the clip from CPAC in February 2012 where Andrew Breitbart spoke those famous words which I use as my motto for this election.

That is right ladies and gentlemen, if you are not behind Mitt Romney right now, Saturday October 6, then more than shame on you because you are on the other side. And to expand on Breitbart’s famous quote #WAR, I will go on to say that #ThisMeansWAR. And here is what I mean:

So for all of you who are voting for Barack Obama or any of the irrelevant third party candidates who want a fight, you got more than that. You just got a

#WAR!

Yes that is right you liberals, you Occupy sycophants, you third party HACKS, my declaration to you is #ThisMeansWAR!

The Tea Party and this particular presidential election

A couple of days on Facebook, my friend Guy R. Smith wrote a letter which really puts this election in perspective

This Particular Presidential Election for My Tea Party Compatriots

Do you know why I'm willing to vote for, as many people want to frame it, the lesser of two evils this November? Because the other real choice in this Presidential Pageant is truly evil to the core. The determining factor to me is this; I have no question of Mr. Romney's love and respect for our Country, our Culture and our Society. And I have no question of the Dalibama's hate and disdain for our Country, our Culture and our Society. Everything else only rates a far distant second in this particular Presidential Pageant.

The only way we are going to effect the kind of changes many Constitution loving and Libertarian leaning Americans espouse to is through the legislature not the President. We're making solid inroads in this endeavor in each election. My biggest disappointment in this election cycle so far is that We The People flushed $100 million+ down the figurative toilet chasing this silly Presidential Pageant decoy that the political establishment distracts us with every four years. Can you imagine what we could have done if those dollars had been invested in the campaigns of 100 real conservative House and Senate candidates?

But we're just 3 or 4 years into learning how this game is really played and we're learning fast. We'll make major changes in the operation of the GOP over the next couple of years because we're learning how that part works too. And we'll equal or exceed the Congressional progress we made in 2010 in the elections of 2014. Again because we'll have this election cycle under our belts and we'll adjust, improvise and improve between now and 2014. We didn't get here in a couple of election cycles and we won't back to where we need to be a couple of election cycles either. But we'll get back there a lot quicker than they got us here.

And after doing real research into who Mr. Romney is and his actual record, not the distortions put out in the primaries by Gingrich, Santorum, Perry and the rest of the GOP establishment candidates recruited by the Party to block Mr. Romney, as well as the distortions of the Dimocrats, I believe he has the right stuff to be a good, if not great President.

That's why voting for the, as they put it, "lesser of two evils" in this particular election is not a choice, it's the only choice, period.

What Guy had said is oh so true indeed. This election, the ONLY choice is to get rid of Obama. And as I had been saying in the past, the only one who has the ONLY ROAD to do it is Mitt Romney. Otherwise, there might not be any more elections to where we can make a difference. Keep in mind how Hitler came into power in the late 1920’s and early 1930’s. He did it through manipulation and deceit. In 1990 I had said that Saddam Hussein was like Hitler when he invaded Kuwait and that if he were not stopped, he would invade Saudi Arabia and then the rest of the Arabian Peninsula and Northern Africa. Saddam in my mind was the military Hitler while right now Obama is the political Hitler, taking over the country using the political system for his gains. In 2008 he was elected on the promise of Hope and Change, and he is indeed doing that by changing America from a Capitalist society to a socialist one. If we do not stop him in November, then he will continue to fundamentally transform this country into a Socialist nation.

Obama Voters

Take a listen to this video from 2010

Parasite #1

Yes, this is a typical Obama voter who just wants things handed to her thanks to Obama, and if you do not like it then you are a racist. THIS is the mindset of many people who we are going up against come November. Also, there is this beaut as well which was taken from the Rush Limbaugh show a couple of years ago:

Parasite #2

and of course who could forget about this from before the 2008 election:

Parasite #3

These are typical of many of the mooches and leeches and parasites that are plaguing America thanks to the policies of Barack Obama. We have 46 days to show many people what 47% of Americans (if not more) believe in. As Newt Gingrich had said during the primaries, Obama is the Food Stamp President. Obama is looking to give a handout and not a way to give people support to stand on their own two feet. His economic policies have driven America to the brink of another depression.

Bottom line is if you are looking for a handout, vote for Obama. If you are looking for a hand up to get you on your own two feet and move ahead, vote for Romney. The future of America depends on it.

Never Forget What Happened 11 Years Ago

I know I will not. In fact, I remember exactly where I was on this day 5 years ago when I first heard about the plane striking the World Trade Center. I was at a McDonald's enjoying breakfast and listening to a local sportsradio broadcaster broadcast live from there when he broke for his 45 minutes past the hour break. I was about to walk over to him during the break and say that I wanted to speak about Michael Jordan's return to basketball and play for the Washington Wizards when I looked at his face which is that of shock. At first report it seemed to me like a small plane and that it was a freak accident, but when I heard of the second plane hit the World Trade Center I knew that this had to be some sort of planned attack. I spent the entire 9:00 hour glued to his little broadcast station as he had a set of headphones which I listened to the producer back at the station speak to him and updating him. There were other callers who chimed in with updates from the televised newscasts. After the show ended I hung around for a small time listening, then the host's dad offered to drive me to teh college where I could watch the TV in the library as well as get current updates on the internet. While en route I phoned my mom and stepdad to tell them what had happened. My stepdad told me that he had heard about it and that mom was going to get me and tell me but she saw that I was gone. When I went into the library at the college to watch the news, I almost fell to the floor upon seeing the planes striking the Towers and the Pentagon. About 11:45 I got word that the college was closing and called my grandma in Chicago to ask her if she and dad knew what was happening. She said that dad was on the way to the store but that they knew what was going on. After I spoke to grandma I went home and kept the news on the TV all the time, gasping and getting angry as to what happened.

I urge people to NEVER forget this day for as long as they live. I encourage everyone no matter where they are that if they have the American flag to unfurl it and wave it proudly, for as Frankin Delano Roosevelt said of another terrible day in American History, "This is a day which will go down in infamy."

It is amazing how 5 years later, the horrific events of 9-11 still affects people. A lady who checked the terrorists onto that first flight that hit the towers killed herself because she couldn't deal with the guilt. Also, another checker who did the second flight.... is still five years later in intense therapy. This I had found out from a woman who I had seen in a chat room where I visit often. I guess this is a lot like Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome.

Those words, written September 11, 2006, still hold true today. While the main proponents of the September 11, 2001, attacks are either dead or still imprisoned awaiting trial, we must not remember what happened that fateful day. We had been at war with Muslim extremists ever since 1784 when the first American vessel was seized by Moroccan pirates. That led to the formation of the United States Navy in March 1794 and us taking the battle to them. The Middle East has always been in the interest of the United States, as seen by historian Michael Oren in a speech given at Columbia University entitled The Middle East and the Making of the United States, 1776 to 1815. In fact, Oren had said that the Middle East 's Impact on American Affairs Is Nothing New. Not many know or realize this, but it is true.

The Middle East will always have an impact on American affairs, regardless of who is in the White House or has control of the House of Representatives and the Senate. The only question is how the people in control of those offices handle the affairs coming out of the Middle East. Even though many people hate President George W. Bush, he knew how to handle the affairs out of the Middle East. In fact, if it were not for the intelligence and the protocols already in place, Obama would not have had the opportunity to order the death of Osama bin Ladin.

 

The Rundown for September 8, 2012

Join Rick Bulow and Patricia Baber today as they bring you the week in news. The Democrats had their convention this week, and there were massive fireworks both on and off the floor. What were they and how does it affect the campaign? The traitor of Florida, former Republican now turned Independent Charlie Crist, also made an appearance at the DNC. Is he an optimistic American or just an opportunist? Those topics and more, including your calls, will be on today’s show.

Come join us as we go back to a 2-hour show at the usual start time of 1:30 PM Eastern, 12:30 PM Central. The chatroom at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/conservativennationradio/2012/09/08/red-right-and-blue will still be open 30 minutes beforehand for all to come and engage the conversation as we prepare for the show. The call-in line is 718-305-7176 and you can also call in via Skype. Sometime during the show just click on the S next to where the phone number is at the top of the page and follow the instructions, then press 1 and you will be in the queue and will be put on the air as soon as possible. And for those of you on Twitter, you can also use the hashtag #RedRightBlue to interact during the show while you listen.

Tell your friends, tell your neighbors. Hell, tell your enemies. This will be one show that will blow the roof off the place as we are leading up to the election on November 6.

An open letter to ALL Americans (Post-Convention Speech)

Here we sit at 59 days until the election, exactly 2 months from today we will vote for the direction we want America to go. Now, many people are still pushing the third party bolshoi of either Gary Johnson or Ron Paul or others, but I have espoused the failures of a third party vote many MANY times since March, which you can read at my 33rd rant and my 34th rant as well as my 45th rant and also listen to at my show on the June 23rd edition of Red, Right, and Blue. Allow me to reiterate those rants and the entire show once more so those of you who insist that voting third party is the way to go:

THIS ELECTION IS WAY TOO IMPORTANT TO VOTE THIRD PARTY!

In other words, a vote for a third party, a write-in vote, or a no vote this year IS a vote for Obama. If you do not believe me, then you need look no further than 1992 where Ross Perot gave us 8 years of Bill Clinton. I say 8 years as we all know that Bob Dole would have lost to Clinton in 1996 because he did not energize the base. This year we saw a Republican Convention where 90% of the speakers had given us enough oomph and impetus to vote for Romney. Even Newt Gingrich, who was harshly criticized by Romney during the Primaries, had even praised Mitt Romney and going so far as to compare him to Ronald Reagan during his speech. Don’t believe me? Take a listen.

We have also heard speeches from many future stars of the Republican Party such as Susana Martinez, Nikki Haley, Luis Fortuño, and Marco Rubio. Be on the lookout for Fortuño and Rubio sometime in the future as they will be the next president. And yes, they ARE BOTH ELIGIBLE as they are natural-born citizens. I am also thinking Haley and Martinez could make a run for the Presidency as well. The bottom line is that the Republican Convention had shown that we have a good bench to support Romney.

Now on the Democrat side of Washington, we do not see that much of a bench from them, and we even see that they are the most divisive of all. We see that in who they have as speakers, and also in their removal of God and Israel from the platform, only to put it back in after being called out by not only Bret Baier of Fox News Channel but also by many others.

And even then, as seen below, there has been a battle over it. Take a listen.

With the comparison and the battle of Conservative vs. Liberal and Republican vs. Democrat, all a third party will do FOR THIS ELECTION will serve to continue the divisiveness and thus ensure another 4 years to Obama to destroy this nation. I do not want that, and I know in all of your hearts you do not want it either. As I mentioned in my rants, this election you are either ALL-IN for Romney or you are ALL-IN for Obama. And if you vote third party, write in a vote, or stay at home, then you are in fact by default voting for Obama and the destruction of this nation. As Andrew Breitbart said at CPAC back in February (which is my motto for this election), “If you are not in the bunker because you are dissatisfied with this candidate, more than shame on you. You are on the other side.” In fact, let me play that clip for you once more so it will become clearer.

I said it before, and I will say it again: “IF we do not vote for Mitt Romney in November, then this WILL be our future during an Obama second term”

(Video removed by user. find the audio at http://www.4shared.com/mp3/pNgbGs0m/Palpatine_Speech.html?refurl=d1url

I said it before, and I will say it again. As was mentioned by Joshua after the initial conquest of Canaan (found in the biblical book of Joshua 24:15) “[And] if it disagreeable in your sight to serve the LORD, choose for yourselves today who you will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served which were beyond the River; or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living; but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.” That verse is also applicable today. If it is disagreeable in your sight to vote for Mitt Romney, choose for yourselves today who you will vote for; whether Obama who has led America into the hell it is in; or the other minor candidates who will only serve as a front for Obama this year; but as for me and Conservative Nation Radio, we will vote for Romney.

The rundown for September 1, 2012

Join Rick Bulow and Tricia Baber as they talk about the week in news. This week was the Republican Convention, and Mitt Romney is the official Republican nominee. What will this mean for the general election? Also, what does the future hold for a good many of the speakers from the Convention? Hurricane Isaac also made landfall in Louisiana after skirting the Keys and also Southwest Florida. Who toured the damage first? All this plus your calls.

Come join us for the fun and frivolity that is Red, Right, and Blue at 12:30 PM Eastern, 11:30 AM Central. The chatroom at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/conservativennationradio/2012/09/01/red-right-and-blue will be open 30 minutes early  to prepare for the show and also talk with the hosts. Also, if you are on Twitter and want to engage the conversation from there, the hashtag is #RedRightBlue. The phone number is 718-305-7176 and you can use Skype to call in as well.

Tell your friends. Tell your neighbors. Tell your enemies. Today’s show will be one you do NOT want to miss!

The Incredible Shrinking Man

I will start this editorial out by playing another wonderful video by Bill Whittle:

We are definitely seeing Obama as the Incredible Shrinking Man, and Romney as the one on the rise. We had seen it with this recent Republican Convention as well as Romney visiting the storm-ravaged area of Louisiana, both of which I will get to during the show. These last 66 days until the election are bound to be one of the most exciting, most intense, most intriguing time we are in. This is a make it or break it time in that if Obama is re-elected, then America as we know it will cease to exist.

The Rundown for August 25, 2012

Join Rick Bulow and Patricia Baber as they talk about the issue with Todd Akin and the Missouri Senate race. They will also talk about the Connecticut Senate race and also the Republican National Convention. Also along with the Republican National Convention there is a tropical Storm in the Atlantic named Isaac which might cause some turmoil for the Convention. All that and more including your calls.
Come join us at 12:30 PM Eastern, 11:30 AM Central for fun and frivolity. The chatroom will be open 30 minutes before at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/conservativennationradio/2012/08/25/red-right-and-blue so do come in and join the preshow talk and chatter.

Election 2012: ALL 50 states are up for grabs

I have mentioned on Own The Narrative a few times, as well as on Facebook and Twitter, that based on Fast and Furious, ObamaCare, and Sandra Fluke that all 50 states are up for grabs. Oh sure there will be states (like California, Illinois, and New York) which will vote for Obama but the key is by HOW MUCH Obama will win by in those states. Many people have told me that Romney should write those states off as unwinnable but I feel that if he holds Obama to within a single digit margin in those states, then it will be a victory for him. The key will be whether it will be a moral victory if Romney gets the 270+ electoral votes (I say Romney will get 326 or 327, Titan92 of Own The Narrative says 316, and Hey_Sherm also of Own the Narrative says 320) or a pyrrhic victory should Obama somehow win a second term.

According to an article by Colorado University, which I will get into later in the show, all signs point to a Romney landslide with 320 electoral votes for Romney with 218 for Obama. Though the study mainly focuses on the Electoral College, the study also said that 52.9% of the popular vote will go to Romney as opposed to 47.1% for Obama. This just leads more credence to my theory about all 50 states being up for grabs, especially as in the article it says that Romney will win all the swing states Obama won in 2008.

Those signs which point to a Romney landslide focus mainly on Jobs and the Economy. There are no social conservatism issues mentioned in this study at al. The reason for that is because social conservatism loses elections, and we are definitely seeing that with the Todd Akin v. Claire McCaskill race in the Missouri Senate race. Akin had a 10 point lead until last Saturday when he mentioned the thing about “legitimate rape” and then it saw the polls shift to McCaskill leading by 10 points in the span of 3 days, leading to the Cook Report stating that Akin is unelectable and that the Missouri Senate seat will remain unwinnable to Republicans as long as Akin stays in the race.

Outside of the Missouri Senate seat, I am confident we will keep the House, take back the Senate AND win the White House with Romney. And with that in mind we have to all we can to make 2012 a Republican victory.

Paul Ryan is a perfect pick by Mitt Romney

I would like to start this editorial by playing this video from Afterburner with Bill Whittle entitled “A Great Way to Win and Lose”:

 

Whittle hit it on the head. Mitt Romney had made the PERFECT decision in selecting Paul Ryan as his Vice Presidential pick. Paul Ryan is young and smart, two things which liberals do not like. This pick also scares liberals because this race will focus on the main issues of jobs and the economy and not the shiny objects. Also, as Ryan had said during one of his speeches, “We want this debate about Medicare. we NEED this debate about Medicare.” Ryan is exciting and has done what Obama and the Democrats had not done in 3 years: produce a budget.  In picking Ryan, Romney has galvanized the Conservatives and made this race exciting. Now it is our turn to do what all we can do in order to make Obama a one-term president.

Rundown for August 18, 2012

Join Rick Bulow, Becca Lower, and Tricia Baber as they discuss Biden’s gaffes, the featured speakers for the Republican Convention, Paul Ryan’s “homecoming” to Ohio, and more.

All this, including your calls, will be on Red, Right, and Blue today as we continue our early time of 12:30 PM Eastern, 11:30 PM Central. The chatroom at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/conservativennationradio/2012/08/18/red-right-and-blue will be open 30 minutes before the show so people can get ready for the show. And there are many ways you can get involved in the show as well. One way is the chatroom, another way is to call in to 718-305-7176 or by Skype, and another way is to use the hashtag #RedRightBlue if you are on Twitter. Come engage the conversation and enjoy the fun and frivolity that can only be found on Red, Right, and Blue.

"Jefferson, I think we're lost..."

guest post by Becca Lower

It was strange to read today, in The Hill, that some think that the Paul Ryan pick was

"The Announcement Without a Bounce: Romney’s Choice Falls Flat.” Have they talked to people in Ohio? Not only did Ryan get some encouraging greetings from Ohio seniors on Wednesday, on his way to the Miami of Ohio event, but here's the line of people waiting to get into the Engineering Quad where he was set to speak (Note: all images are by me, and are clickable to enlarge):

It took about an hour to move from the edge of the Millett Hall parking lot to the gates. That was just enough time to finish our provisions (trail mix, cut-up veggies, day-old restaurant tortilla chips) and to chat with a man who happened to be down from Cleveland moving his underclassman son into his Miami U. dorm. Oh yes, it was early move-in day, too. So you had political junkies like Robert Stacy McCain and me from points east and south (I'm from Butler County), alongside frantic and lost mothers and fathers from all over. I overheard a man speaking to the Clevelander who'd come from somewhere in Kentucky-- roughly the same five hour distance, just from the other direction.

Ohio plate seen while waiting in line for the event

The two stories, seeing Ryan and meeting Stacy McCain (writer of The Other McCain blog), can't be separated. I can't imagine the experience of Wednesday without either part. And really, McCain's story couldn't have served as a better counterpoint.

We got acquainted during the primaries somewhat by accident. He contacted his friend and fellow blogger Lisa Graas, the week before the Ohio contest (March 6th). He happened to be in Ohio visiting family, and hoped to mingle with some Rick Santorum supporters as we watched a debate. Although that meet-up didn't work out, we did have a good, twenty minute phone call.

Then in late May, just days after Stacy and his family were forced to go into hiding because of the actions of Brett Kimberlin and his cohorts, he showed up (in the second or third radio interview in as many days) to tell his story on Texas or Busted TV, which I'm lucky to be a part of. (Update: He appeared on May 22:
http:// static.ownthenarrative.com/media/1/1/5_22_12-2.mp3)

And then, early Wednesday, Stacy started tweeting and blogging about his surprise stop in Oxford, Ohio, to catch Paul Ryan. The opportunity of a meet-up, this close to home, was too good to resist. I quickly left a comment at his blog and at Facebook.
                           

Note the clever placement of this OH candidate's campaign banner.

Post-event scrum for Ryan photos and handshakes

A close-up of my autographed "MATH" poster

After the event, I called Stacy's cellphone. He picked up on the third ring. Some locals were taking him to have his first taste of Cincinnati chili, at the Skyline Chili parlor on High Street.

I met Stacy in the space between the restaurant's two doors. He was ducking out to take a phone call. But he pointed to a back corner booth, which was full of people. Two of them were members of a local TEA party, Liberty Township. It's under the same umbrella as our town's group. In fact, my mom and I attended a great, Fourth of July event that they presented this year. Also sitting in the booth was a red-headed thirteen year old named Jefferson.

You might call him the other, Other McCain. He's Stacy's son. On my last blog, I mistakenly described him as "irascible."  He is precocious, though. After Stacy returned from his phone call, we were bantering about the number of attendees at the event. The kid guessed (it was more of a statement, really) that there were 10,000 people. He may have a future in PR. It was closer to 2-3,000.

You expect someone who writes like Stacy does to do a little ranting about politics. He did that. But there was something I didn't expect somehow. He's a hugger, not a handshaker. To emphasize a point, he'll lightly rest his hand on your arm for a moment. It was a nice surprise.

After Skyline, our group walked back down High Street, toward the parking lot. I didn't get the full story on the McCain family's trip to Oxford, but there was something about getting lost. So as Stacy and I said our farewells, my mom went over a loaner Ohio road map with Jefferson. But as we pulled away, their car didn't head in the right direction at all. Less than a block away, their car had stopped. We caught up to them, then led them to the highway.

(The title refers the R.E.M. song "Little America," from their 1984 Reckoning album. Per the wiki, "The song's (and album's) last line [is], "Jefferson, I think we're lost.")

Addendum: " Paul Ryan’s Nerd Wave — Wassup!" The second picture was from this Miami of OH event... LOL, @Ali.http://viralread.com/2012/08/16/paul-ryans-nerd-wave-wassup/

Do the Math

Guest blog by Becca Lower

So as to not to overdo things, I'll have another blog on the Rep. Paul Ryan event tomorrow. Or tonight, if there's more insomnia like last night-- it's not every day that you shake the hand of the future VP.

The “math” poster, which R. Stacy McCain mentioned and pictured in his blog today, was the brain-child of David Burge (Twitter: @iowahawkblog; url: http://iowahawk.typepad.com/). I first heard of it earlier this week, when Breitbart News' Larry O'Connor saw it in his Twitter timeline during a commercial break. He nabbed a fill-in gig, all this week, for Chris Stigall on a huge, Philadelphia AM station. (You can also hear him on certain Saturdays on DC's WMAL; follow @larryoconnor for details.) A quick scan of Twitter and I found the image, too.

Yesterday, on my way to Oxford (home of Miami of Ohio), I was kicking myself that I hadn't brought anything better for Rep. Paul Ryan to sign than a clipping from that morning's Cincinnati Enquirer. Then it hit me. Since our local library is in the same system as Oxford's, I could pop into that branch with my library card and print the “math” image off my email.

After Ryan's speech, I braved the scrum for handshakes, photos and autographs. It wasn't a polite rope line like you'd see at a typical, GOP event (a Lincoln-Reagan dinner, for example). No, this was more like the stage being rushed at a rock concert. Ryan's a rock star, even in the level-headed Midwest. We think fiscal sanity is sexy.

Ryan had a black, permanent marker already, so shoving the picture at him was all I needed to do to get an autograph. It was unclear from his expression if he looked at the poster at all, but others in the throng liked it. After a couple seconds, I realized that he hadn't moved far along the way. (He's stopped for a photo.) So I reached out my hand, and he shook it. I wished him good luck. He said thank you.

The story behind meeting up with blogger extraordinaire Stacy McCain and his irascible thirteen year old, Jefferson (and others), will have to wait. But here's proof that McCain is on the right side of the Force.

The trifecta of Cincinnati culture, all in one night: conservative politics, Reds baseball (Mike Leake on the tv in the background, throwing a complete game) and Skyline chili.

Robert Stacy McCain and me

 more photos tomorrow...

Update: H/T to J.d. Bryden for the info about IowaHawk.

UPDATE: Read more of this story here. And also, thanks to the very generous R. Stacy McCain for the mention.
