Closing in on the General Election

As we get closer and closer to the 2012 General Election, remember the incumbent President took an oath to "defend the Constitution of the United States." One of his political hacks in the Department of Justice, the department that oversee whether or not some (but not all) states can even hold elections, has resigned over the Inspector General report on "Fast and Furious." You remember giving (selling) guns to people known to be Mexican drug cartel members

That was such a good idea, the incumbent President should resign also since no department would have considered such a criminal plan unless ordered by the President..

Well, he won't but remember  and he will not resign. You have the power to send him home, wherever that might be, on November 6. 2012.

Remember this quote on November 6, 2012

President Obama, "I believe in redistribution."

If you take nothing else into consideration, please remember this quote from POTUS as you vote in the November 6, 2012 election. To interpret, if you, the American taxpayer, pony up any money to the federal government in the form of payroll taxes, social security taxes, unemployment insurance, federal gas taxes,  income taxes , or any other hidden federal tax, the President intends to give it to someone in the 47% that haven't made any monetary contribution for the nation's upkeep.

Conventions Dust Settles---Real Work Begins

Both the Republican and Democrat National Conventions are over. Now the real work begins. One party or the other will energize its voters to victory. We can put aside the heroic spins given and get to the down-to-earth work of political parties--grassroots grunt work--getting the vote out.

One party is trying to energize its voter base by spinning the old tired tales of failed policy, and the other is trying to tread softly to avoid the label of racism so easily applied in our "politically correct" society.

What we really need is an electorate who cares about America. We need to get out of the PC rut and call the incumbent into question about his failed policies. Answer the questions, "Do you believe in the America so many have died to defend?" " Do you care that you are putting generations of Americans at debt's risk?" "Do you care for the poor, the helpless?" "How has the implementation of your policies made a better society for all Americans?"

We need to question the opponent. "How will your policies make America better for all citizens?" "Why should we trust your administration to do better than the current one?"

For November 6, honestly answer the questions:

• Is America a better place now than it was four years ago?
• Is the family unit stronger?
• Do you have a job, or do you expect to have one next year?
• Who is going to offer you a job?
• Did you make as much money in 2011 as you did in 2008?
• Are you paying a greater percentage of your family income on gasoline? on food? on housing costs? on medical care than you did in 2010?
• Are you generally better off in 2011 than you were in 2008?
• On a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the very best, rate the performance of the incumbent President's job in office.

As you look back answering the questions and others you have determined yourself, do you think we need a change in the White House? That's a question only you as a voter can answer. Your answer is incredibly important as is your vote on November 6, 2012.
