Should women vote?

Emo’s?  What are emo’s?  People who run their lives strictly on emotion: emo’s!  As we have always known, women are suckers for a tear-jerking story, they are much more big-hearted and, therefore, are more likely to vote with their, dare I say, emotions!

Thanks to emotion and women: government grows out of control, according to John R. Lott, author of Freedomnomics!  And I think he is right!   Look at this:

For decades, polls have shown that women as a group vote differently than men. Without the women’s vote, Republicans would have swept every presidential race but one between 1968 and 2004.

Women were much more opposed to the 1996 federal welfare reforms, which mandated time limits for receiving welfare and imposed some work requirements on welfare recipients. Women are also more supportive of Medicare, Social Security and educational expenditures.

Hence, single women who believe they may marry in the future, as well as married women who most fear divorce, look to the government as a form of protection against this risk from a possible divorce: a more progressive tax system and other government transfers of wealth from rich to poor. The more certain a woman is that she doesn’t risk divorce, the more likely she is to oppose government transfers.

Even after accounting for a range of other factors — such as industrialization, urbanization, education and income — the impact of granting of women’s suffrage on per capita state government expenditures and revenue was startling. Per capita state government spending after accounting for inflation had been flat or falling during the 10 years before women began voting. But state governments started expanding the first year after women voted and continued growing until within 11 years real per capita spending had more than doubled. The increase in government spending and revenue started immediately after women started voting.

Either we get these single women married, change our voting laws or it is over for America and you can say hello to an Obama Presidency and Socialism.  And “Sex and the City” will be the #1 movie this weekend-holy crap!!

Warner/Liberman “near-crippling” cap and trade regulations

Words are amazing things!  The debate can be won or lost on just the title or how it is phrased!  Liberals are masters at this.  Appealing to the big, stupid, bleeding hearts of the world, they come up with things like: “health care for everyone”, raise minimum wage, ACLU, NEA, VEA, “Kids First”, more money for schools, “invest” in America or Virginia roads, “climate change”, America sucks, America racists, America is evil, Bush is evil, America is racists….okay…I got carried away.  What about Cap and Trade?  First, to the normal, hard working American the name means nothing.  In reality, like most liberal big government bills, this title hides the real story.  I guess calling the bill “Cap your freedom and income” or “Trading your freedom and money for regulation” or “Destroy capitalism for global warming” or “Capped income and Trade your lifestyle” won’t work!

This is one example of the massive regulation coming with this stupid bill: here.

And a great article here.  And more information go to www.accf.org.

Speaking of perfect liberal phrases, Kaine has the best way to describe Illegal aliens.  This one is right up there with “health care for everyone”!

Freedom comes from the Soldier

It Is the Soldier

by Father Dennis Edward O’Brien United States Marine Corps

 

It is the Soldier, not the reporter
Who has given us freedom of the press.

It is the Soldier, not the poet,
Who has given us freedom of speech.

It is the Soldier, not the campus organizer,
Who has given us the freedom to demonstrate.

It is the Soldier, not the lawyer,
Who has given us the right to a fair trial.

It is the Soldier, who salutes the flag,
Who serves beneath the flag,
And whose coffin is draped by the flag,
Who allows the protestor to burn the flag.

This is read during every Patriot Radio segment we do.  I wanted to post it here for all those who wanted a copy.  God bless America.

Memorial Day

“No greater love than this, that a man lay his life down for another” John 15:13 

May we honor those fallen today and everyday for our freedom.   Freedom is not FREE!

Listen today for a very special Patriot Radio show from 3-6pm on 1140 WRVA!

Carbon Tax

SAN FRANCISCO — Air pollution regulators in the San Francisco Bay area voted overwhelmingly Wednesday to approve new rules that impose fees on businesses for emitting greenhouse gasses.

Do you remember Catholic church selling indulgences?  Just saying!

The Bay Area Air Quality Management District’s board of directors voted 15-1 to charge companies 4.4 cents per ton of carbon dioxide they emit, an agency spokeswoman said.

15-1?  Wow, there is no more hope for the left coast.  Get out while you can!

Experts say the fees, which cover nine counties in the Bay Area, are the first of their kind in the country.

Goody!  First of their kind…does this mean we can expect more of this?

“It doesn’t solve global warming, but it gets us thinking in the right terms,” said Daniel Kammen, a renewable energy expert at the University of California, Berkeley. “It’s not enough of a cost to change behavior, but it tells us where things are headed. You have to think not just in financial terms, but in carbon terms.”

Berkeley..that says it all, doesn’t it!  You can’t solve a problem that doesn’t exist but you can implement communism/socialism with this scam.  He is right about one thing…..it tells us where we are headed!  Scared? You should be!

More than 2,500 businesses will be required to pay the proposed fees. About seven power plants and oil refineries would have to pay more than $50,000 a year, but the majority of businesses would pay less than $1, according to district estimates.

No!  Who cares about that! It is just a $1!  These evil companies should pay more taxes anyway and it won’t have any effect on me or the people buying their products (I just threw up in my mouth a little, that was hard to say!)

Government owned oil companies

Congressman Maxine Waters (yes, Congressman! I know she is a women! Congressman is a generic term, not gender specific. Congresswomen sounds stupid, just like gentlewoman (which isn’t a word)) is proud to be a liberal and a socialist

Guess what this liberal will be all about……socialism….basically…taken over…all your companies!”

Does this scare anyone else?  Who do these people think they are?  How is it that this insane women is in Congress?  What morons would elect her?  Is this the Democrat party today?  Is this the energy policy that will lower gas prices?  Where is my barf bucket? 

Too many questions….my head hurts!

But really, it doesn’t have any impact on me.  I hope that they take over those evil oil companies.  It won’t bother me.  (Do you think Congress will ever come after me or my company for making too much money (other than the tax code)…….no, they just don’t like high gas prices! No worries!)

Commonsense English Language Act

I know, I know…you can not have the word “commonsense” in the same sentence with anything from Washington.  But wait, maybe we need this one.

Congressman Forbes has co-sponsored a great bill that would protect employers who require their employees to speak English at work from lawsuits.   You can read it here. 

I am planning to have Congressman Forbes on our show to discuss it and other commonsense acts, but until then here are my random thoughts:

  1. English Language Act?  Obviously, Forbes is a racists and doesn’t like “New Americans”
  2. It is hard to believe that we actually need a bill like this in America!
  3. How about an English as an official langauge act?  Too commonsense! (Forbes supported it, also)
  4. Employers should be able to fire anyone for any reason, period!
  5. Lawsuits?  Once again, tort reform and lawyer reform (meaning we need less of them)!

Congressman Forbes must have heard our show: Mar_22nd_Speak_English_when_Ordering_you_Racists.mp3

New Americans?

Here it comes…..new way to discribe Illegal aliens! As if we need one!! Our Governor, Tim Kaine, has coined a new phrase that I am sure will be picked up by the radical left and, maybe, even Osama, opps, Obama!  We covered this a few weeks ago on our program and here is the reminder!

Tim Kaine…the gift that keeps on giving all year long!

Thomas Jefferson and 1st Amendment

A caller today said that it was unconstitutional to say Jesus name at a prayer in front of a city council or a county board meeting.  I challenged him with Thomas Jefferson’s own actions.  I asked him if he thought Jefferson was wrong for using federal monies to send out missionaries to the Indians.  He was, obviously, unfamiliar with that issue.

I want to layout the facts here:

1) Original Intent goes into great detail of this entire point on page 207.  Written by David Baton.

2) D. James Kennedy spoke about it here.

3) Excellent points here.

4) David Barton here.

My entire point does not rest on Thomas Jefferson.  Even if Jefferson didn’t do these things, the Constitution is clear.  There is no breach when a pastor prayers before a city council or county board in Jesus name and it is silly to say so!
