Changes are coming

With every website change is good. I have decided to take down the blog and use my FORUM at www.pineconeconservatives.org . The Forum and Blog are similar but the Forum suits the purposes of our Mission. It will be more effective to to use the Forum as a membership tool, it will also open up the blog tab for a new feature. I am panning to have a "guest editorial" tab. This does two things: creates more content and legitimises our mission.

This is all good movement and shows that Pine Cone Conservatives is evolving and moving forward.

I hope this move gives you information and helps in organizing for conservative action.

Thank you for your support.

The Intelligence in the Intelligence

On today's forum I wrote why trust the Intelligence in the Intelligence form the White House!

As the Debate on Health Care destroys the Presidents policy agenda, it has diverted the attention back to torture and the CIA. They will regroup and start the Health Care debate next week. But in the interim they will try to get back the base by weakening our defense. Don't let this happen say no to torture prosecution's.

Refer to the Forum for more of the story.

From here to eternity

I am offering a new feature on the FORUM at www.pineconeconservatives.org . Every Monday we will be detailing what will be in the news for the week.

This week it is President Obama's vacation, we will not have access because the press is denied the story. This is due to the fact that the Presidents advisers want to shelter him from the Health care debate, the war and the economy with the announcement that the deficit will be 2 trillion dollars more than they expected. The OMB (Office of management and Budget) said it will be nine trillion dollars. The interest on that money is fifty billion dollars a year.

While he spends his vacation on Martha's Vinyard in a thirty to fifty thousand dollar a week rented vacation home, we must discuss the millions of Americans who will not vacation this week because they just cannot afford it.

Another topic will be the release of the CIA torture findings by the Inspector General. It is expected that many former CIA officers will be prosecuted for torture. This is all designed for political expediency by a president who is inept.

The last topic is the invoking of the nuclear option in the Senate over Government Run Health Care. This is the Democratic Senate invoking a rule that will change the standard 60 votes to a new standard of 50 for passage of legislation. The Democrats know they can pass this bill anytime they want because they hold both houses. Due to public outcry of HR3200 they can't because they do not have the votes. The vote count today stands at 43. They dare not invoke this nuclear option because it would mean political suicide.

Keep up the pressure, organize and protest when you can. If we take the House and Senate away and keep the new politician's honest then our country and future generations will be able to survive from here to eternity.

Friday's Quote

Today is Friday and the tradition continues on the BLOG of featuring a quote of a great leader!

Thomas Jefferson wrote to Pierre Samuel DuPont de Nomours in 1816: "Enlighten the people generally, and tyranny and oppressions of body and mind will vanish like evil spirits at the dawn of day."

We will be talking about this and more next week at the Forum and here on the Blog.

Have a great weekend.

The signs are there

There seems to be sign's of the health care bill starting to crumble in it's present form.

The democrats are not united and e the republicans are playing smart politics. However, those that are on the front lines are smarter than any politician. We have been strong and we have been united.

The message going forward is simple. You cannot have a prescription of liberty while sharing it with tyranny. This administration and the current house and senate are interested in one thing, it is retaining their power no matter what the cost is.

Reagan said:"Individual liberty depends upon keeping government under control." This is the message that we as Americans need to be focused on.

If this government run health care program passes your government will control 1/6 of this nations economy. This is too much control to be given to a government that cannot control their own affairs let alone our health.

Our nations health is measured by our liberty and not by a board of strangers.

Use this message in you arguments against HR3200 or any similar bill. The signs are their the people don't want it!

Honor among Thieves

Yesterday I wrote about the children's book "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie", I compared our Congress to that notion and said if you give a mouse a cookie he will want a glass of milk. How true.

Our government does not create prosperity it destroys it. This is why our Congress, Senate and The White House practice the principle of Honor among Thieves. The government we elect would like us to believe they are honorable. Many of the administrations own members have a sordid past by manipulating the law to benefit them. They all pitch themselves a honorable when they enact legislation that robs our liberty and prosperity.

Review the voting records of your representatives and ask one question, do they represent your views or your morals. The chances are they don't.

This is the honor system of the dishonorable. They will pitch a plan in this case government run health care and tell us it is our basic right to require this. And all along the plan is to gain 1/6 control over the economy.

This Honor among Thieves must stop. We must be aware of the tactics, we must be aware of the ruling power in Washington. We must do the right thing and protest the actions of the few for the greater good of the majority.

We do not have to put up with Honor among Thieves . It is in the Constitution, it is in our Bill of Rights, and it is in The Declaration of Independence. It is called Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

If You Give a Mouse a Cookie

The bedtime story "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" is what we experience everyday in the congress and the Senate.

If you take Hr3200 as an example you will see. Now the administration is talking about eliminating the public option. No fear the bill will pass and it will in time include the public option. This is known as incrementalism, A large program is proposed and then it gets diluted to a form that passes. Then soon after another amendment is passed expanding the scope of the program. Just like the book "If you give a mouse a cookie he will want a glass of milk.

Yesterday I wrote about Norman Mantoon Thomas the four time Presidential Candidate, he said in 1944; "The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But under the name of liberalism, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened?. He went on to say: " I no longer need to run as a presidential candidate for the socialist party. The Democratic party has adopted our platform."

This is stunning, he said this after Roosevelt passed the New Deal. Today we have another new deal it is called Government Run Health Care.

We have already given Congress a cookie let's not give them the glass of milk.

Truth or Consequesces

I wrote about Truth or Consequences today at The Forum on the website www.pineconeconservatives.org . My message today carries a quote form Norman Mantoon Thomas. He was a four time Presidential Candidate for the Socialist party of America, he said in 1944; " The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of Liberalism, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened"? He went on to say: "I no longer need to run as a presidential Candidate for the Socialist Party. The Democratic Party has adopted our platform"!

This government run health care proposal is nothing short than socialism!

Do the right thing contact your Representatives in the House and Senate and send them this quote! Be respectful but ask them to comment on it.

Let me know your results.

I have been most appreciative of your support, I am working on some great things for this organization I hope to have some results soon.

Fridays quote

Lincoln was fighting against liberty and tyranny. History repeats itself because the battle never ends. We find ourselves in a renewed struggle from the progressive liberal.

Todays quote comes from our 16th President who fought and struggled to keep a nation free!

He said in 1864: "We all declare for liberty, but in using the same word we do not all mean the same thing. With some the word liberty may mean for each man to do as he pleases with himself, and the product of his labor; while with others, the same word may mean for some men to do as they please with other men, and the product of other men's labor. Here are two, not only different, but incompatible things, called by the same name-liberty. And it follows that each of the things is, by the respective parties, called by two different and incompatible names-liberty and tyranny."

The battle then was over slavery, today the battle is over slavery to the state.

Cement Shoes

Today on the Forum at http://www.pineconeconservatives.org/ I wrote about the government giving us a one size fits all approach to Health Care, when a group of Chicago politicians offers you a shoe it usually is made of cement. If we let the progressive wing of the Democrat party get their way we will be fitted with cement shoes and we will be sent to the bottom of the lake.

Today marks the 28th anniversary of Ronald Reagan's tax cuts. That set in motion a top marginal rate reduction from 70% to 50% and then to 28%. It spurned a generation of Americans who grew the economy and created jobs. That is the difference between these two presidents.

At the end of the term a President becomes just another citizen. We do not have to respect the man in as much as we need to respect the office. We need to respect the traditions and the honor of the office. A president must respect the same thing and that is ensuring that our liberty is protected. The health of our nation is reflected in the health of our liberty.

Say no to reductions in your liberty and no to the cement shoes!

Tomorrow I will have a quote about Liberty and Tyranny.

What we have here is a failur to communicate

Mr. President:

I have one question, why do you say in front of the Union's that you favor a single payer system and in front of a town hall meeting you deny it and say you don't?

I have another question, what does the Union have to do with my health care anyway?

The American people are communicating clearly, it is you and your party who aren't. The items such as section 440 and section 1233 you say don't exist, do.

We want answers and we don't want to be called Nazi's. You do not want to go there!

We need to know your intent and be guaranteed that our liberty along with our health care will not be rationed and will not be decided by a board of your making.

You are the great orator, start communicating honestly so we can make an honest decision in 2010 and 2012.

Three solutions

In my opinion three solutions for health care reform exist today. No one wants to discuss them because it's to simple of a solution.

1. Remove the trial lawyers from the equation, prohibit them from contributing to any political party.

2. Remove the barriers that exist between the States, make it competitive for Health Care providers to do business.

3. Remove the current regulations of COBRA, make it a benefit like unemployment insurance.

These are three solutions that would work in the present model. Lets write our leaders and give these ideas so we all win.
