Boycott David Letterman’s Sponsors

If you don’t know why, then you’re reading the wrong blog.

The New Agenda is keeping tabs on sponsors of David Letterman’s show.  I have already told T-Mobile that I will cancel may $120 month service (paying the penalty) if they don’t stop advertising on The Late Show by July 15.

Top names on the boycott list:

• Johnson & Johnson
• T-Mobile
• Ford
• Nissan/Infiniti
• Toyota/Lexus
• Proctor & Gamble
• Citigroup (which should be out of business, anyway)
• Chase (JPMC)
• The Gap (plus Old Navy and Banana Republic)
• Wyeth
• Saturn
• Hotels.com
• Mazda

Please check the list and avoid these companies until they leave Letterman or Letterman retires.

Overwhelm the Nazis

The American Nazis are holding a rally on the Arch grounds at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, April 18.  The Anti-Defamation League is sponsoring a counter-rally in Forest Park at the same time.

I will be at Forest Park.

So I have some strong disagreements with some of the sponsoring organizations of the counter-rally.  Big deal.  If the point of the counter-rally is to oppose Nazism, then I can easily look past those differences for a couple of hours.  We’ll pick up the other fights later.

Details:

Date: April 18, 2009 
Time: 2:30 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. 
Venue: Art Hill in Forest Park 
Location: St. Louis, Missouri

The Anti-American Presidency

Barack Obama’s shameful and anti-American behavior this past weekend in Europe deserves the kind of scorn reserved for degenerate traitors like Benedict Arnold, the Rosenbergs, and Alger Hiss. 

On Thursday in London, the President of the United States transferred America’s economic sovereignty from we, the people, to a small group of European central bankers. 

In the words of former Clinton staffer Dick Morris, Obama “nullified the Declaration of Independence.”  Specifically, Obama signed an agreement to create the Financial Stability Board comprised of European central banks and the Chairman of the Federal Reserve.  The FSB shall have the authority of “regulation and oversight to all systemically important financial institutions, instruments, and markets…[including] systemically important hedge funds.”   

Having singlehanded, and in violation of the Constitutional requirement of obtaining the Senate’s advice and consent for treaties, Obama went on to the continent to humiliate and denigrate his country.

Describing the United States—the country of which he is head of state and of government—to European students, Obama said “America has shown arrogance and been dismissive, even derisive” to its allies. 

Next, Obama promised to begin unilateral nuclear disarmament, leaving the whole world naked in the face of aggression from malevolent super-powers and rogue states like North Korea, Iran, and, potentially, Pakistan.  Obama’s disarmament promise came hours after North Korea test-fired an ICBM capable of reaching Hawaii or Alaska.

Finally, faced with brazen hostility from North Korea, Obama turned, not to his own power as President of the most powerful economic and military country the planet has ever known, but to effeminate and corrupt United Nations.  

I have few human feelings for this shadow of a man.  He is stupid, arrogant, childish, spoiled, naive, and dangerous.  He has sold the greatest nation on earth to envious European bureaucrats in order to obtain for himself the fleeting praise of shallow people.  He has, with the help of millions of selfish and dimwitted American voters, undone 230 years of American progress and centuries of Western philosophical thought.  His work would not be more effective had he gone back in time and convinced the mothers of Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Aquinas, Locke, Rousseau, Adam Smith, and Thomas Jefferson to obtain late-term abortions. 

There is one distinction between Barack Obama and the traitors I named at the top of this post.  The others failed to bring about the destruction of the United States.  Obama succeeded.

Now it falls on us—the Americans—to restore the republic Obama destroyed.  

NOTE:  When I wrote this on election night, I was only half serious.  Many of these “predictions” were mere sarcasm.  In other words, Obama’s march toward totalitarianism is worse than my exaggerations!

Obama Exercises Dictatorial Power by Firing GM CEO

Barack Obama has asserted his dictatorial powers by firing GM CEO Rick Waggoner.  The firing of a company’s chief executive by a US president should send chills down the spine of every American.  This is totalitarianism defined.

While Hennessy’s View has been critical of Waggoner’s leadership at GM, we oppose illegal and unconstitutional dictatorial powers in the hands of any US president. 

Nothing in the Constitution permits a sitting president to direct a private company.  For that matter, the Constitution prohibits the US from owning stock in private companies.

The precedence is remarkable.  Under its newly acquired, unconstitutional powers, the government could buy a minority position in any US company and replace its management team with hand-picked cronies. 

American’s should sign up for a Tax Day Tea Party in their area immediately.  They should also flood local media with their view that the Constitution, not a two-bit dictator, should control government activity.

Tea Party Message Sinking In

Rasmussen’s weekly report shows the Tea Party message of limited government and lower taxes is hitting home with voters.

Tax Cuts:  More voters than ever now say tax cuts help the economy.  Over 60 percent now agree with JFK, Reagan, Bush, and the undeniable facts of economic history: cutting taxes increases GDP and personal wealth.  

A separate survey released earlier today found that 66% of voters think the president is likely to raise taxes on those who make less than $250,000 per year. 

Obama Approval:  Obama’s net favorability is down to +4 from + 30 after his inauguration.  Rasmussen notes that Obama’s flurry of exposure–The Tonight Show, 60 Minutes, primetime press conference, townhall–did not increase his favorability at all.  In fact, it’s fallen 2 points since last week.  

Nationalized Banks:  Only 11 percent believe the government can do a better job running banks.

If these trends continue, Obama will be unable to influence key Democrats in Congress, and he will be a 3-year lame duck.  That’s the best the country can hope for.

You can help by spreading the word:  Obama’s plans for a socialist dictatorship are dangerous and un-American.  

Stop him!  Stop him, now!

America’s Survival Is In Your Hands

Are you as amazed as I am at how quickly our country has descended into something resembling an oversized banana republic?  Consider:

• Gangs of thugs freely harass and intimidate AIG employees out of murderous envy
• The Obama administration announced its willingness to abandon the US dollar as the international reserve currency
• The administration shows no willingness to check China’s menacing military build-up, even though the Pentagon issued a warning just today
• Secretary of State Clinton went to Mexico to denounce the US, as if you and I caused the border problems and Mexico’s lawlessness
• North Korea shows no fear of the United States as it prepares to test-fire a long-range, nuclear-capable missile
• The president of the Czech Republic publically humiliated and denounced our President’s economic plan; and he’s a natural ally of the US
• A Treasury bond auction was barely able to dump the US treasuries because no one want American government debt
• Congress passed a Marxist youth service bill containing language that allows a bureaucrat to make service compulsory without the consent of the people and prohibits religious expression (12 Republicans supported this bill)

And these are just today’s headlines. 

But there’s good news. The Tea Party movement is swelling.  On Fox News Special Edition, Bret Bair reported on the MSM’s reluctance to cover the tea parties, citing an Investor’s Business Daily story:  "The real reason the major media aren’t interested in these protests is that they don’t agree with them."

If the major media are against us, we’re doing something right.

The liberals in both parties who run our government seek to maximize their power and minimize ours.  They hope to make the United States nothing more than sheepish, cowed, socialist land of myrmidons.  No one in Washington will stand up to them. 

But we will.   We know that man is endowed with rights as natural as breathing.  We don’t need college classes on Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness, anymore than we need classes on waking up.  Freedom is our natural state.

Some liberals claim that progress requires that we surrender freedom, individualism, and the time of our lives to an all-powerful government.  Sorry, but that’s not progress; that’s regress.  If man’s natural state is freedom, bondage is not a step forward.

Large numbers beget large numbers.   If 20,000 people were to show up at Kiener Plaza on April 15, no news agency could ignore it.  Traffic would be backed up for miles.  If 100,000 attend the July 4 Tea Party in St. Louis, the whole world will notice. 

Don’t stop recruiting.  We need the participation of every person who yearns freedom and human dignity, regardless of party affiliation or prior understanding of his or her ideology.  Conservatism isn’t political—it’s moral. 

In his introduction to “God and Man at Yale,” William F. Buckley wrote that the battle between individualism and collectivism is the same battle as God vs Satan, fought on a different plane.  Your participation in the Tea Party movement is a moral choice.  You and your family should be proud of what you’re doing.

For those of you who haven’t joined, please consider this question:  when the gangs of thugs come after your home, when the government taxes 90 percent of your income, when inflation hits 120 percent a year, will you still believe that soccer games and “American Idol” were more important than restoring our republic?

I never thought I’d write this

I try not to say or write what I really thing about our President.  It isn’t Christian. 

But when we were dating, my wife gave me the best advice I’ve ever received:  If you really want to cut someone down, say at least one good thing about them, and make it sound sincere.  For that reason, I keep in mind that Barack Obama is a fantastic communicator.

Until tonight.

He sucked.

And he sucked on 60 Minutes and on Leno. 

What did I never think I’d say?  Obama is a terrible communicator.

It’s as if he spent his whole life preparing to run for president.  And that’s it.  He’s done.

I’m offended when people compare Obama to Reagan, for the same reason I’m offended when people compare their Squirt kids to Wayne Gretzky.  But tonight, the difference between the two was stark.  Consider this from one of Reagan’s first press conferences as President:

SAM DONALDSON:  Mr. President, in describing the continuing recession, tonight, you’ve blamed mistakes of the past, you’ve blamed the Congress; does any of the blame lie with you?

REAGAN:  Yes, because for many years I was a Democrat.

Now, I didn’t listen too closely to Obama’s press conference, but I watched it all.  I don’t believe he got a single laugh from the press corps–which LOOVVVES him.  Reagan never failed to get a chuckle from his press corps, and most of them hated him.

For that matter, compared to our old nemesis, Bill Clinton, Obama looked puny.

The Dictator’s Press Conference

I won’t write much:  I’m too angry.

He has not answered a single question without blaming Bush and the Republicans.  He’s blamed the Republicans for the Democrat Congress!

He claims that “no one disputes” his prediction of the fastest economic growth in the American’ history beginning THIS YEAR!  Of course no one disputes it!  Rational people don’t argue with insanity.

Finally, he’s a Marxist bent on destroying American liberty!  We don’t need to know anything else.

You either love liberty or you love Obama.  There’s no middle ground. 

Stop him!  Stop him, now!

Houses Passes Nazi Mandatory Youth Re-Education and Service Bill

The House, which is unabashedly authoritarian, has passed the GIVE Act, requiring national-socialist indoctrination for your children. 

That’s right.  Obama is going to turn your kids into spies working against you and your elderly parents.  Why?  Because Marxists like Obama hate liberty.  Liberty is their enemy.  And you support liberty, then you’re the enemy, too.

Now, before you say I’m reaching, read the language. 

Think Obama’s goal isn’t a totalitarian, Marxist state?  You’re wrong. 

Want to keep your kids out of these anti-American indoctrination camps?  You better get off your ass and fight Obama and Congress.  You better fight them hard.  You better be prepared to do without.  Instead of watching that Marxist totalitarian liar on TV tonight, why don’t watch “The Patriot” by Mel Gibson, or read Liberty and Tyranny by Mark Levin?   Find out what you’re up against.

If you don’t, be familiar with “The Diary of Anne Frank.”  If you try to stand alone against Obama’s machine, your story will end like hers.

And, yes; I still want Obama to fail.
