Nancy Pelosi has finally been replaced as Speaker of the House, and none too soon.

This woman know for her liberal ‘San Francisco’ views did plenty of damage while she was Speaker. Between her, Harry Reid, and President Obama, they almost destroyed our nation and our way of life. In the very least, they have forever polarized liberals from conservatives.

President Obama campaigned on how he was gonna change Washington. There was no change, there was just politics as usual. Remember the Dems locking the Reps from their closed door meetings? Remember Harry Reid buying votes within his own party in order to jam legislation down American’s throats? Remember Dem’s campaign promises that they really had no intention of ever honoring?

I guess poor Nancy will be giving up her personal (taxpayer funded) military jet for her weekly commute to and from the West Coast. Now how will her family get free transportation? Hahaha.

The funniest thing of all was Nancy Pelosi jumping up and down at every sentence that Obama uttered during his State of the Union speech. She reminded me of a psychotic jack in the box.

The damage these people did in two years may never be completely undone, but at least the American voters realized what a huge mistake they had made two years ago and corrected it.

It’s hard to write anything about this woman objectively, because I absolutely hate her and everything she believes in. Her ‘deer in the headlights’ expression that is always on her face makes me want to throw things at my tv. Remember her famous line about the healthcare bill? “We need to pass this bill to see what’s in it”. Oh oooh! I’m heating up. I better move on.

I realize that Nancy kept her seat in the House, and I’m truly not that surprised. Because, when you think about the the most effed up city in the nation, you’re thinking San Fran just like me (Remember the millions she sent there to ‘study’ an endangered mouse?). The voters there are overrun by fags, druggies, greenies, and illegals, to the point of being out numbered. The city officials are openly against our military and any recruitment efforts. It’s almost like they all moved to San Fran to get away from normal people. Hahaha. Well, if we ever have the big quake, it could cleanse us of Frisco.

Thank God she is no longer the Speaker, no longer in line to be President, no longer abusing her use of military aircraft and personnel, and no longer dictating the flow of business through the House of Reps. Mrs. Pelosi…….GOOD RIDDANCE!

I have several friends that are dyed in the wool Democrats. They are as passionate as I am in their beliefs. They voted for Obama and reason that McCain couldn’t have done any better.

Couldn’t have done any better? Let’s see, he probably would have bailed out the Banks, so that’s the same. He probably would not have bailed out the unions via the automakers, nor would he have locked all Republicans out of the private negotiations that were necessary to ram healthcare down the country’s throat. Neither would you have caught McCain bowing to Arab leaders or apologizing for the U.S.’s role in global politics. I am not a big fan of John McCain, but he is a war hero, and he isn’t associated with x-terrorists. I sincerely hope the GOP has a decent candidate for 2012.

The other thing I noticed about a few of my Dem friends is that frequently they are very ill informed. They get merely a morsel of the liberal press’ praise for Obama, and never read any deeper. In fact, they spend more time on the sports page and doing the crossword puzzle than any other section. Often, they never even open the business section. A few of them work for unions, but enjoy regularly bitching about the same union. They almost always vote, but I try to discourage them. Hahahaha.

One Dem friend of mine who is a smoker and I were chatting recently. I mentioned that there were a few assemblymen in Anchorage who were trying to increase the municipality’s tax on tobacco. That irritated him (he hadn’t read that news) and his response was a little distressing to me. He said why don’t they tax fast food joints? They have already taxed us smokers enough, move on to a different group. My response was to point out that Dems always want to tax someone (but not themselves), where as Republicans (true grassroots Rep’s) want less government and lower taxes.

Why tax fast food restaurants just because you think smokers pay enough already? QUIT TAXING AT ALL! He says “well, someone has to pay for services”. Finally, he said something I agree with. Cut government, at all levels, down to what they are really meant for….providing basic services. Cut the entitlements, cut the foreign aid, get rid of all retirement programs for the Senators and Rep’s, cut about 80% of all grants, etc… He stopped me and said I was going too far. Oh yeah, silly me, Dems want to continue taxing, as long as it’s someone else.

Folks, get out and vote this week, and let this government hear loud and clear that we’re fed up!

Every other day, team Obama rants and raves about the great progress they have made with the economy. Yet, every other day the analyst’s reports contradict them directly. With unemployment through the roof, housing in the toilet, and the stock market bouncing like a ping pong ball, team Obama now are trying to boast about their foreign policy achievements. Frankly, unless you call record numbers of troop deaths the last 3 months an achievement, I don’t see any! But, they have to find a thread of success somewhere to draw attention away from their disastrous domestic policy before the elections. DON’T BE FOOLED!

Some of the Republican Leadership are calling for the resignation of Obama’s economic advisors, I concur. But, be careful what you ask for, the replacements could be even worse!

I was amazed at the flip flop of opinion on the mosque in NY by Obama. I mean, is anybody truly advising this man? If they are they must be idiots. Or perhaps he is not listening to his advisors, either way it’s been a complete embarrassment to the Whitehouse, and frankly to Americans. I mean, no matter your opinion, you want to see the President make a decision and stand by it. Obama’s been flip flopping worse than a fresh caught silver salmon on a hot boat deck.

Well, today in Alaska, voters have a chance to change some of the status quo. It’s only the primary, but it should offer a glimpse into the voter’s mind set going into November. And remember, Alaska’s unemployment has not been as bad as the nation’s, so we don’t have the droves of unemployed voters like California, Nevada, Michigan, etc.. Still, I hope Alaskans are as disgusted as I am about the worst President in the history of the U.S., and his step siblings Pelosi and Reed.

Everybody please vote!  Later.

The resignation of General McChrystal this week is merely a symptom of a greater problem that this administration suffers. On the surface,it appears to be an act of poor judgement on the General’s part. But, look deeper, I say that the inexperience and perceived detachment of President Obama has resulted in a lack of respect by the nation’s armed forces, certainly the upper brass. His policies are weak, as he strives to conduct what he knows must be done while seemingly trying to satisfy his left wing base. And he has assembled an unimpressive cast of civilian idiots to facilitate his ‘vision’.

In my opinion, he has failed or is failing on almost every national issue he faces. The war is stagnating, unemployment numbers are stagnant, the oil is still gushing into the ocean, the border is in chaos, his high level appointees are in continuous spin mode, and the deficit is snowballing. Voters across the nation will likely voice their disapproval with their ballots this fall.

Certainly, the title of President commands it’s own respect merely by it’s title. But, the man must follow through and command some of his own through leadership and foresight. This President has been high on talk and low on action. His ‘pie in the sky’ visions are unachievable and unrealistic. His time off and away from the fracas is unpreceidented. His reaction and response to crisis seems to be media driven. In a nutshell, he is the second worst President of my lifetime (to Jimmy Carter).

It reminds us all… be careful how you cast your vote because you might get it! If the Republicans have a stitch of brains, they should be posturing the proper candidate this very minute. Although, Republicans have not impressed me of late either.
