The new administration along with congress put together an impressive list of accomplishments this year. A record deficit, double digit unemployment, increased terrorist activity, new taxes, bigger goverment, blah blah blah. Many Americans voted for change and we got it. Our leaders have managed to implement their changes at warped speed. As predicted BHO has managed to set the country back decades in less than a year. More changes are planned for 2010. How much more of this change can we take? With the dawning of a new year comes the hope that Americans will wake up and decide to make some changes of their own. We have a chance with the 2010 elections to move the country in a different direction, the RIGHT direction. We can fire those who have decided they know what's good for us depite our constant objections. We can elect people who will do the will of the people. Never in this country's history has it been more important to stay engaged, put aside personal agendas and get those who are trying to ruin the American way of life out of office. Those are the changes we need. Happy New Year!

Christmas Terror
Memories of Christmas Day 2009 were marred by the attempted terrorist act on an airliner bound from Amsterdam to Detroit. This extremist was actually allowed to board the plane despite reports of his intent expressed to authorities by his own father. Fortunately the act was thwarted and the only one injured was the terrorist.
What is more disturbing is the administrations reaction to the event. BHO has been silent and Director of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano actually said the system worked exactly as is should have once the threat was recognized. WTH is wrong with her? This is yet another example of how absolutely obtuse this administration is to the fact that this is a war.
Since this administration has been in power not only did we have this event, but also the Fort Hood Shootings. Three hikers are still being held hostage in Iran and nothing is being done to gain their release. All these things happened for one reason. We have gotten weaker as a country and the world knows it. Would any of these events have happened under the past administration? I can’t say for sure, but what I do know is we would be more proactive then we are now.
The fact that we are hated seems to really bother some Americans and the powers currently in Washington. We are hated because of the freedoms we have, not because of our military might. Our military might has protected us. While countries have always hated us they were hesitant to do anything about it because they know we have the ability to make the cost of any attack against us not worth the devastation they would suffer.
Now instead of being hated and feared, we are hated and laughed at. This administration doesn’t want to accept the fact that we have always been and will always be hated. It’s not the job of the government to play nice with people who can’t be reasoned with and are hell bent on destroying our way of life. It is the government’s job to protect the citizens of this country so we can live without fear.
As Americans we should be afraid of what the future holds with people in charge that will not stand up for America. Unless something changes soon my message to Americans is be afraid, be very afraid.

Priorities?
In their typical covert fashion the Senate passed their version of Health Care Reform under the cover of night. Harry Reid and his ilk managed to fleece Americans yet again using good ole fashion bribery and arm twisting. The thing that most puzzles me is that I don't hear anyone complaining. While most people I know don't like or want this plan there doesn't seem to be much outrage over it. People around here were far more concerned with Saints loss to the Cowboys then something that will effect the rest of their life. I hear no one talking about the underhanded way this bill was voted on. We should be outraged and voicing our displeasure to anyone in a position to vote on this. Where are our priorities? It is up to us to keep our elected officials in check and make sure they do the will of the people. Hopefully over the holidays we all write and call our senators and let them know how we feel. Remember THEY WORK FOR US. We need to let them know that their careers are in our hands.

Conspiracy Theory
I saw a new show in TV that attempts to uncover the truth on the many cover ups. The show Conspiracy Theory hosted by Jesse Ventura and is aired on Tru TV on Wednesday nights. Jesse Ventura is a former wrestler and Govenor of Minnesota. He wrote a book titled "I aint got time to Bleed". I am certainly not going to say I agree with his views on everything, but I do admire his search for the truth.
His first show was about Global Warming and how it is a blot not to save the planet, but to make money, lots of it. Jesse was a global warming believer and friend of Al Gore , but still had the integity once it was investigated, to admit that there is overwhelming evidence being covered up to the contrary. It is an episode I will save on the DVR so I can refer back to it and show it to others who care to see the other side of this issue. I cant wait until the next episode. I encourage everyone to watch this show. Like the good book says " The Truth shall set you free"

We are Screwed
The candidates for the New Orleans Mayors race are set. The 11 candidates are : Jonah Bascle, Mitch Landrieu, Ed Murray, Rob Couhig, John Georges, Troy Henry,James Perry, Nadine Ramsey, Jerry Jacobs and Manny Bruno. Of all these candidiates only a couple should be considered serious contenders.
I love this city, but most people here don't get it. The citizens cry out for things to change, but vote based on personal biases that make it impossible for change to occur. The faces in the office change, but not much else. We need to change our way of thinking if we want positive things to happen. Party affiliation, gender, and race shouldn't be issues. Sadly these are the things that seem to matter most. That is the problem. The definition of insanity is doing the same things over and over, but expecting different results. If we attempt to build a future on the foundation of the past, we will as many houses around here do....sink. There are only a couple of candidates that give us a chance at a new and brighter future. Ron Couhig a Republican is one, but has about as much chance to win as I would if I were running. John Georges is a SUCCESSFUL business man, who gets things done. This undoubtly eliminates him. What's most likely to happen is, Mitch Landrieu will emerge as the favorite. While he is the most qualified he is also part of the Landrieu political machine and thus part of the problem. This leaves no one who is both electable and good for the city. New Orleans has a long road ahead of it unless Georges or Couhig can pull an upset.

A Small Victory (Maybe)
The Left seems to have given in on some of the atrocities that were included in Obama Care. A major concession is the supposed elimination of the government run portion of the plan along and the Medicare buy in. Senator Joe Lieberman now seems poised to support the bill. The lone wolf is Senator Ben Nelson who is vehemently opposed to any sort of tax payer funded abortion provision in the bill. Good for you Ben! If this part of the bill is changed it would appear that he will support the bill and it will pass. This version of the bill will be quite different then the original version. I have doubts as to whether these things will actually have been change when BHO signs the bill. This is to say I don’t think they will have changed. If indeed I am mistaken and these things aren’t in the final signed version of the bill it will only be a small victory for the people. Even with these changes this is still a bad bill. It won’t lower cost it will raise the deficit and will negatively affect both the quality and availability of healthcare, and the economy.
The only way to reform healthcare the RIGHT way is through Tort Reform, which will lower insurance cost for Doctors. Portability of insurance and tax breaks for companies to further cut costs. We should also have the ability to fill prescriptions in neighboring countries with less expensive medications of equal quality. This will give U.S. companies incentive to lower prices. Free market competition will ensure quality service at lower costs.
No doubt if this bill doesn't the Democrats will point fingers at the Republicans and say they voted against reform. I suppose in their warped perception of reality they believe this. My advice to the GOP and the American people is to not buy into this finger pointing. The GOP knows this bill is bad for America and should vote against it. If this bill passes the American people should vote out anyone who voted for this bill. Are you listening Mary Landrieu? We should then elect people willing to fight the president and amend this bill into something that will be good for all Americans.

Thanksgiving Humor
Here is some Humor to enjoy over Thanksgiving Dinner.
I think the picture captures her true essence.
The liberals are asking us to give Obama time.We agree and think 25 to life would be appropriate.
America needs Obamacare like Nancy Pelosi needs a Halloween mask.
Q: Have you heard about McDonalds new Obama Value Meal? A: Order anything you like and the guy behind you has to pay for it.
Q: What does Barack Obama call lunch with a convicted felon? A: A fund raiser.
Q: What's the difference between Obama's cabinet and a penitentiary? A: One is filled with tax evaders, blackmailers and threats to society. The other is for housing prisoners.
If Nancy Pelosi and Obama were on a boat in the middle of the ocean and itstarted to sink, who would be saved? America!
If Nancy Pelosi has her face lifted one more time she'll have a beard.
Q: What's the difference between Obama and his dog, Bo?A: Bo has papers.
Now that's some funy stuff. Too bad for American it's all true.
That's E's View Happy Thanksgiving.
