“WILD PROMISES”

     Has anyone ever made you a promise and went back on their word?  Or, have they gained your trust by being in agreement with your understanding only to change their mind and disagree with you later?  I have to admit this has happened to me several times in my life and it is always a challenge to cut through the bull, choose to reconcile the relationship, or let go and move on.

     The question is:  Is habitually breaking a promise or flip-flopping an accident or a strategy?  If an accident, it might happen once, maybe twice, and you can try to reconcile.  But, when you see a string of broken promises, you realize you are in a dysfunctional relationship and it may be time to cut the cord.

     President Obama and the Democrat Party have made promise after promise to the American people.  They have taken a strong position only to waver and falter when it was politically expedient. Obamacare’s  costly rollout reminds me of a dishonest dysfunctional relationship where one promises diamonds but  delivers plastic.  Their strategy after 7 years of Senate Democrat leadership and 5 years of White House leadership is becoming clear;  like drunks on a binge, they are racking up the credit card, promising more change down the road, and delivering more of the same, sometimes worse.  It is evident we are codependents in this relationship with big government.  Unfortunately, they are leaving Americans with a trail of financial, emotional, and physical devastation that our children and grandchildren will inherit, perpetuating the dysfunctional cycle for years to come.

     Do we want our fate in the hands of deceptive habitual liars?   Do we want servant hood  or  ‘selfie’ hood from our politicians?   It is time for Americans to end this dysfunctional relationship with these so called leaders that are intoxicated with their own status, power, and desires.   We can choose codependency or we can work toward our own future and freedom.  We need to end the cycle of broken promises and flip flops at the ballot box in 2014.   Wild promises that are broken should have consequences!

Repeal Obamacare, PERIOD. @teapartypassion

Repeal Obamacare, PERIOD.

     As President Obama tirelessly attended his west coast democrat fundraisers for up to $32,000.00 a plate, responsible middleclass Americans like me lost their promised healthcare coverage.   Over 5 million Americans have been radically affected by the supposed unintended consequences that Obamacare has imposed.  Obama said his sorry to us poor folk who have received notices after he promised we could keep our health coverage and doctors, PERIOD.  But, an apology just doesn’t seem quite sufficient for someone interjecting themselves into my healthcare needs, promising to make it better, taking away my choice, and making it is worse.

     Why is the government interfering with my decisions that would govern my health?  Surely this president would go out of his way during the 2012 elections touting a false ‘war on women’  to stir up his base and declare women have the right to make decisions that affect their healthcare on every level, even if they choose the destruction of a new life within.  Why should I be any less empowered to make my own healthcare decisions on every level? 

     I am self employed and have a health savings account which I painstakingly researched and finally chose a plan best suited to my needs and finances.  With Obamacare, my choice was disregarded as I received the robocall  and the letter from my insurance company that due to the Affordable Healthcare Act my plan would no longer be offered.  I have to begin the whole process over now because of government interference, which they say is for my benefit because I do not know what is good for my health.  And they do?   

     Obama won the popular vote with less than 5 million votes in 2012.  If his scheme to take away our healthcare choices had been fully revealed that October, the election would have had a different outcome.  We will remember this political trickery by the democrat party  in the 2014 election.  May freedom loving Americans peacefully rise up and say no to this war on our freedom and no to Obamacare with our voice and our vote!  Repeal Obamacare, PERIOD.

S.O.S America! @teapartypassion

                                                                  S.O.S America!

     The flagship Obamacare  seems less like a train wreck and more like the unsinkable sinkable Titanic.  Titanic means gigantic and the Obamatanic is no doubt gigantic; thousands upon thousands of pages of regulation overseen by Failed First Mate Sebelius. 

     The opulent Obamatanic  included only the finest offerings for its passengers; coverage of preexisting conditions, insurance for toddlers at 26, free preventive services, free contraceptives, low premiums, and you could keep your plan and provider, PERIOD!   The ship of hope and change was here!  Healthcare was no longer a privilege but a right.

        President Obama, Captain of the Obamatanic, pushed at maximum speeds through resistant political waters to bring us the Affordable Healthcare Act.  His legacy legislation was jammed through the Democrat controlled Senate and House.  To allay the fears of passengers, they were told, “We must pass the bill before we know what is in it.”  Meanwhile, on shore, doubting TEA Party activist and Republicans stood their ground for commonsense free market principles and have been warning Americans for 4 years now of the lurking peril.

      Peril arrived in October with the first iceberg; the failed website rollout.   Reckless leadership, poor planning, and unintended consequences have brought more chaos.   Over 5 million Americans have lost their healthcare coverage and possibly their healthcare providers even though they were promised they could keep both.  But, a promise on a sinking ship does not have much value!   Although Captain Obama voiced an apology for the casualties, it was actually part of the original Democrat scheme that up to 90 million privately insured Americans would lose their policies and be forced onto government exchanges. 

      The true tragedy is that this is an orchestrated ship wreck by folks that want America’s healthcare system to go down.  Socialist are no respecter of persons, professions, or plans.  They collapse systems to increase their control and power base.  Venezuelans took a similar boat ride with socialist Captain Hugo Chavez and their country is now ship wrecked.

      Oceans of promises, deceptive iceberg lies, corrupt captains, system failures, and dubious navigators…what else could go wrong?    S.O.S America!

Lip Service @teapartypassion

 

                                                                       Lip Service

          We have heard since we where children that actions speak louder than words.  When our words over take our actions, which frequently happens with politicians, we call this lip service.

     As we recognize and honor our veterans on Veteran’s Day, we know men and women whose actions spoke louder than words with their dedication and commitment in service to America.  Some have made the ultimate sacrifice and gave their lives willingly for their fellow Americans so that Freedom would prevail.
   
  Last year in Benghazi, Libya, four brave Americans made that sacrifice for Freedom.  As other brave and selfless Americans were ready to rush into harm’s way and come to their rescue, a stand down order from above was mysteriously given.  In a rather long battle with no assistance, the Benghazi consulate was eventually over-run by Al Qaeda linked militants and four Americans were killed.   President Obama swore then to bring the perpetrators to justice, yet they still roam free.

     A few weeks ago I witnessed something almost as horrific but not in some foreign land.     In Washington D.C., not too far from Obama’s home, veterans were barricaded from seeing open air monuments during the government shutdown.  Many of these veterans had traveled long hours and spent a lot of money to visit the memorials and pay their respect, perhaps for their last time.  Armed riot police in full gear in a show of force were purposefully dispatched to keep  those veterans out.   The  veterans, at great personal risk , many elderly and in wheelchairs, proceeded through the barricades.  

     If there was ever a more appropriate time for a stand down order from the mysterious powers above, it was now!  But, the order never came.  The Commander and Chief could have picked up a phone and said, “Let them in”, but, the order never came.  The Commander and Chief who gave multiple campaign speeches on the value of veterans was silent.  This, my friends, is what we call lip service.

     Tell a veteran today that you value their service and, more importantly, live a life of gratitude, appreciation, and action.
