All Texan's Must Act Now! M.P. Hill

To All Texans

 

            If you love your state, love your country, and love being able to spend your money on what you are your family need rather than paying people to sit on the couch and watch TV, then read on. 

            Right now our Governor is leading the fight for each and every citizen in this great State of Texas to not end up paying half of their income in taxes due to the stimulus package.  He is inspiring others to follow him and to look closer at what the supposed stimulus package really is.  And he’s making it clear to the rest of the country what a governor is supposed to do—fight to protect his people, even from higher taxes.

            However, our Senate is fighting against him on the unemployment portion of the stimulus funds.  They passed a bill to go around the wishes of Governor Perry and take those funds any way.  This bill is now in the House.  WE MUST CALL OUR REPRESENTATIVES NOW!!! 

            They need to know that we don’t want to take additional funds from the Fed that will lock us into higher taxes for the duration, long after the federal funds are gone.  They need to know that the people don’t want higher taxes in this state.  They need to know that we don’t want to join the rest of the nation in being taxed into poverty and bankruptcy.  They need to know we support the Governor on this venture and that a vote against him is a vote against the citizens of Texas and they will be the ones finding themselves in the unemployment line in 2010.

            Go to http://www.fyi.legis.state.tx.us/mnuAddress.aspx and find out who represents you then call them and let them know where you stand and that if they want to keep their job they will do it the way we the people of Texas tell them to.

Transcript: David Hill's Tea Party Speech in Tyler Texas

How does it feel to be a part of history?!

We are all here exercising our 1st Amendment Right to Free Speech as well as the Right to Peaceably Assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
And let me tell ya’ folks, I have some grievances to redress.

For the past two decades our elected officials have spent more money than they had to spend which as of September 24, 2008 had us at 9.7 trillion dollars in debt.  Now just 7 months later they have spent an additional 3 trillion dollars and have taken that number to more than 11 trillion dollars in debt.  Instead of taking the path of fiscal responsibility and learning from their past mistakes, they have taken on the attitude of an irresponsible child with their first bank account.  That attitude says, “I can’t Be Broke---I still have checks left”.  Now they have passed a new budget that will leave us more than 21 trillion dollars in debt in less than 5 years.  This debt is unsustainable; the interest payments alone will be higher than the total tax dollars collected by the IRS. 

This will bankrupt the United States of America and I say “No---Not on my watch”

AMERICA’S NEW ANTHEM -----“WHAT HAVE WE DONE” by Gen. Jim Cash

After all the warnings, hand wringing, and savage talk, America chose to do what would never be thought possible only a few years ago---elect a far-left President and Congress hell-bent on "CHANGING" this country into a Socialist State. Sometimes, I wonder how many Americans understand what this really means. My thoughts initially were to give the new President a chance, and not make snap decisions based on out-of-control rhetoric during the campaign. Well, that worked well, and now we are beginning to see that the President is doing exactly what he promised during the campaign, and NO ONE LISTENED!!! The masses were overwhelmed with silver-tongued, no-logic promises that most knew could never be fulfilled.

Soon, the American people will have witnessed enough of this madness. They are a smart lot, and when they have seen enough they will start to ask the big question, "WHAT HAVE WE DONE"? However, the real question will be, "IS IT TOO LATE"?

I do not wish to dwell on the multitude of mistakes that have already been made during the first 60 days of this administration, both foreign and domestic. It must be obvious even to the fiscally irresponsible far-left that the nation is heading unimpeded toward bankruptcy. We hear the President speak often of the deficit. He is not talking about the national debt. He is talking about the rate in which we are increasing the debt. So when he says he will cut the deficit in half by the end of his first term, he is actually saying he will cut the rate at which the debt is increasing by the end of his first term. That is absolutely not good enough. Even Bill Clinton, with the help of a Republican Congress, showed a surplus in deficit spending for a short period. That is accomplished only when you have a growing economy. Now equate that to our economic situation today, and it is obvious this is just another fabrication conjured up by this administration. AMERICANS WAKE UP before it is too late. It is highly probably that the debt is not repayable even as we speak, and it is growing at the most alarming rate in history. Just the annual interest on the current debt is larger than our annual military budget.

A Nation of Fools by Peary Perry 03-25-09

Well, you have to give Barack Obama credit for one thing.

No other president that I know of in history has managed to screw up so much in such a short period of time. He is the champion.

Where to start?

How about his screw up with the teleprompter (you know that device he uses whenever his mouth moves) when the Irish Premier was in town. The Irish Premier got confused reading from the teleprompter and Obama stepped in to help out. Lots have been written about who said what and so forth. I suppose my question is simply this….when will we ever see Obama WITHOUT a teleprompter? Last nights news conference showed that he is obviously aware of the fact that everyone knows he is dependent on this device. Last night he moved (not very effectively) the teleprompter from a desk model to one about the size of a drive in movie screen at the back of the room….see http://features.csmonitor.com/politics/2009/03/24/obama-ditches-teleprompter-for-drive-in-theater-movie-screen/

Anyone recall what he did to Gordon Brown (UK Prime Minister) when he was here a few weeks ago? Generally the two heads of state exchange gifts that have some meaning. Brown brought Obama a pen made from the wood of a ship that had historical meaning. Obama gave Brown 25 DVD’s of American movies. Wow…. is this significant or what? As if Brown could not afford to buy these for himself. A gift from Walmart. How touching. I’m certain old Gordon will hang onto those for years to come. What was the historical significance of DVD movies to one of our strongest allies? What about his removal of the statue of Churchill from the Oval office and its return to England? If he didn’t want it in his office, why not just put it somewhere else but not send it back as if was an abomination to him? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/02/22/obama-returns-churchill-b_n_168919.html

What Rights Will Be Left? by Melissa Pehle-Hill

I keep hearing about the different attacks on our rights being perpetuated by the Obama Administration.  And the rights he seems set on stripping from us are the very ones that our Founding Fathers believed to be of utmost importance, evidenced by their placement as the First and Second Amendments.

Did not the First Amendment give us the right to speak our minds and the right to gather together to share ideas?  Does not the First Amendment protect your right to worship and the time and place of your choosing, or not if you prefer?  Doesn’t the First Amendment even guarantee the right of a free press as well?  I should think the media would cherish this Amendment first and foremost—at least if they like to speak other than that which is approved by the government.  What do they really think the Fairness Doctrine is about?  The government wanting to restrict speech that they disagree with is what the Obama Administration considers to be fair.  But to who is it fair?  Why should anyone consider a one sided argument fair?  My dad always told me not to make a decision with only one side of the story—so why would they expect the entire American populace to do exactly that?  Should my dad be in Washington as an advisor since none of their parents must have taught them this fundamental principle?  In the words of President Harry Truman, “Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear.” 

And then there’s the Second Amendment!  The right to keep and bear arms which springs from a very basic right to protect ourselves and our families.  Why would Obama’s administration want to attack our right to protect our families?  Thomas Jefferson said, “The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.”  Is that possibly what Obama and his cronies fear?  That the Americans they plan to break down as they destroy the economy for us and our children and take our rights one by one might rise up in protest?  If not, then what do they fear? 

Don’t let them tell you they fear the high rate of crime here, or in Mexico, because with that answer they are either insulting our intelligence by thinking we would believe that off-the-mark response, or they truly are stupid enough to believe it themselves.  And if the latter is the correct one then we are in more trouble than any of us are prepared for!

Letters From North America by Peary Perry 02-22-09

So much to write about, so little time.

What do we have time to focus on this week? The economy? Nope, that’s being talked to death. Corruption? Where can we start? Unqualified politicians? Not enough time.

How about taxes? That’s a good idea and one we can all identify with. It seems to me that about 200 and some odd years ago, we protested  taxation without representation. Having sat through last weeks vote on the stimulus bill which no one in Congress had the time to read…isn’t that what happened in front of our very eyes?

The bill, as I understand it, was about 1100 pages in length and came out of committee about fifteen hours before it was voted upon. Obviously no one in this country had a chance to read the thing in it’s entirety before it came up for a vote. So, how can anyone say that the bill was passed with any level of understanding and comprehension? They can’t. So how can any politician honestly tell us they are representing us in this largest of all tax bills?

I don’t think they can.  The current mentality seems to be something along the line of … “We must do something, even if it’s wrong.” I don’t agree. The free market will naturally correct itself, if left alone. People will buy and sell things when the prices for those things reach the correct level. Just because you buy a house does not mean that the house you bought is guaranteed to go up in value by 20% each and every year. This is foolish thinking and has gotten a lot of people into financial trouble. Once the housing market stabilizes and gets to the realistic true value of the properties, then the market will start to expand and grow once more. Pouring more money into it, does not solve the problem.

Stimulus / Stuff by Jim Murphy

WEDNESDAY - February 18, 2009
 
Hello once again from the West Texas Headquarters Of The Culture Of Corrupt Jingoist Smear Machines.
 
STIMULUS:
 
Let me get this out of the way first;  NO  I  HAVE  NOT  READ  THE  STIMULUS  BILL.  So that makes me at least even with the majority of the House of Representatives and the United States Senate.  None of them have read this idiotic piece of legislation either.  Oh, some of them probably read small parts but I'll wager that the only parts they read were those which dealt with their own particular district or state.
 
According to some of the information which I read, California was first with funding for 1971 projects;  Florida was second with funding for 1752 projects;  and Texas was third with funding for 1240 projects.  Now since I live in Texas I believe I have a right to sound off on the $10.7 BILLION Taxpayer Dollars earmarked for my state.
 
Leading the State of Texas in hog meat is the City of Dallas with nearly $1.3 BILLION;  Followed by San Antonio with $1.07 BILLION;  Followed by Austin with $1.03 BILLION and Houston with a paltry $588 MILLION in swine handouts.  Now I am not going to bore you with everything on which these funds are being spent but San Antonio has $10 MILLION earmarked for upgrading the Alamo Dome.  Now I am sure that the Alamo Dome probably could use some sprucing up but this is a stadium owned, I believe, by either The City of San Antonio or Bexar, County.  So why should taxpayer money from other parts of the state and nation be used to improve something which is owned by the government in that area?  Actually that doesn't gripe me as much as the  $18 MILLION earmarked in Austin for a boardwalk around "Lady Bird" Lake.  But I imagine that quite a bit of this so called "Stimulus Package" in every state is going to be blown on similar projects.

FOCA BO by Melissa Pehle-Hill

    Now that we have a new President, and one that is well-known for supporting abortion, we truly need to keep watch on the happenings in Washington and remember what it come Election Day of 2010 and 2012.  That is, of course, if you are concerned with either the moral issues of killing unborn children or the reality that if abortion continues at this rate, eventually this country’s very existence could be in danger.  Like Russia, we could end up with problems of reduced population.  They had more people dying than being born and they got to the point they had enough concern that they were actually offering I believe around $5,000 to families if they had a second or third child.  Is that what we want for America?  
    Barack Obama, before winning the election, told Planned Parenthood, “The first thing I'd do as President is sign the Freedom of Choice Act.  That's the first thing I'd do.”  Now, what is the Freedom of Choice Act and how does it work?  Is this something we should be concerned about?
    Well, the FOCA is a federal bill that would basically remove ALL restrictions from abortions in America.  Not only would it bequeath unlimited taxpayer-funded abortions on demand, it also includes these other changes:
*End parental notification or consent for abortions performed on minors
*Mandate taxpayer funding of abortion
*Allow abortions in military hospitals
*End waiting periods before having an abortion
*Overturn laws requiring informed consent prior to abortion
*Deny doctors the right to refuse to perform abortion for religious reasons
*Force religious affiliated hospitals and facilities to perform abortions
*Overturn many abortion clinic health regulations
*Overturn laws prohibiting abortion after the viability of the child
*Legalize partial-birth abortion

Stimulus of Socialism? by Melissa Pehle-Hill

I keep hearing everyone complaining about the TARP bailout and the planned stimulus package put out by Obama.  What I’m not hearing enough is people bluntly saying that if any Representative or Senator who votes for both of these (or in my opinion even one of them), and against the millions of people who contacted them through email, phone, fax, and letters, need to be sent to the unemployment lines at our first opportunity.

 
Yes, that, my friends, is what needs to happen.  Nothing less will suffice as these people took an unprecedented step toward socialism against the express wishes of their constituents.  In so doing, they, in essence, told the people who put them in office that they will neither abide by the Constitution they swore to uphold nor by the wishes of those who voted for them.  Instead they are doing exactly what they want without a single thought to how it will affect the people of this generation and many generations to come.

 
Is that what we sent them to Washington to do?  Did we send them up there to represent us or did we send them there to do whatever they wanted like a bunch of college kids on their first year away from home?  I don’t think they care, but we must, and we have to hold them accountable for an action such as this.

Letters From North America by Peary Perry 01-12-09

It seems to me that just about all of the instructions you need to get through life can be found in the bible. Perhaps I’m crazy but I think that somewhere in there it says that we would be better off teaching a man to fish than feeding him a fish for one day. This might be in the book of Hesitations, but I can’t be sure.

Anyway, I’m certain that the lesson is in there somewhere, even if I have gotten it all wrong so far. The point is that we are all better off teaching others to take care of themselves rather than giving them a hand out day after day, year after year.

So, how did I arrive at this topic for this week? Easy, the birds. You remember that movie that Hitchcock put out years ago? Well, that’s the scene at our house. We are overloaded with doves. The majestic birds of peace.

And the majestic birds of poop.

Welcome to the U.S.S.A! United Socialist States of America

Well America, YOU ASKED FOR IT!

Bailout, Bailout, and more Bailouts! Insurence, Banking, and now Auto Manufactures all in our governments hands.  Now doesn't that inspire HOPE! oh yes, CHANGE too!

In the words of Thomas Jefferson in 1802:

'I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.'

Sleep Well,

American's For Prosperity Press Release 12-03-08

For Immediate Release: December 3, 2008               Contact: Cindy Mallette, (512) 476-5905

 

Governors Just Say “No!” To State Bailouts

 

Americans For Prosperity Supports Texas and South Carolina Governors For Defending Taxpayers In Bailout Vote

 

AUSTIN─ In a political culture that rewards fiscal irresponsibility, Americans for Prosperity-Texas praises Texas Gov. Rick Perry and South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford for standing for taxpayers and opposing federal bailouts for state governments.

 

“Americans for Prosperity is grateful for these leaders taking a strong stand against state bailouts,” said Peggy Venable, AFP-Texas state director. “It is shocking that federal tax dollars from Texans could be directed to states facing bankruptcy because of their own irresponsible fiscal policies.”

 

“ Texas leaders have exercised fiscal responsibility,” said Venable, “and we are entering this coming session with an $11 billion budget surplus thanks to taxpayer and job-friendly  government policies.”

 

“Texans should not be expected to send their tax dollars to any other state, let alone one that continuously hurts its own economy through heavy taxation and irresponsible spending practices,” Venable said.  “Government bailouts and irresponsible government spending are leaving our children a legacy of debt.”

Feeling The Pain by Bill Ryan

November 10, 2008

Bill Ryan

We have somehow gotten to the idea that life is supposed to be painless, and when the unpredictable throws a rock or two, or a boulder, in our path someone, other than ourselves, is supposed to remove the obstacle and smooth the path. 

Over the past 75 years of so, that someone has been the government.       

President-elect Obama, as did President Bush, wants to help the America through the current difficult economic times, but is that appropriate considering the natural fluctuations of the market place?  Such aid is described as “compassionate” and “needed,” and has been provided before, but is that the role of government, and does it in fact help, prolong, or actually do more harm than good? 

Scholarly analysis of the New Deal programs has determined that many, if not all of the efforts to correct the market actually exacerbated the financial malaise, thus extending both the impact and the duration of the depression.  In addition, not often mentioned in history books, is that the government actually punished certain segments of the population, like black southern farmers, by their market management policies.  In summary, the depression would have ended sooner and with less financial disruption had FDR just let the market work.

To the American Patriot from David Hill

For the true American Patriot, the results of this election are nothing to celebrate.  The election of Barack Hussein Obama may very well mark the end of the Greatest Nation our planet has ever witnessed.  I am not saying this because he is black but because of his position or lack of position on many of the most important issues we as Americans face.  One of the issues our future President is against is our 2nd Amendment right to bear arms.  Since the inception of this great nation, the right of the citizen to keep and bear arms has protected and fed our families.  In this modern age, the right to bear arms is as important as it was 200 years ago but now we depend on this right more to protect our families than to feed them.  If the economic situation follows the path it is currently on, the need to protect our family will increase as the fire of the failing economy is fueled by Democratic Social manipulation in the form of programs designed to take from those who are successful and give to those who are not. Desperation leads to violence and violence must be countered with force.  Our 2nd Amendment insures that we as individuals have the ability to defend ourselves against violence directed at us.  Following are 4 statements by our Founding Fathers.

A Nation of Fools by Peary Perry 10-29-08

Over thirty years ago, I took part in a security training program outside of Washington, D.C. During the ten days or so that I was there, I met a number of federal agents who told me a number of stories, most of which would verge on the brink of unbelievable. One of these stories concerned President Kennedy and a decision he was said to have made one evening while sailing around D.C. on the Presidential yacht. According to one of the agents, President Kennedy had consulted with a number of his closest friends and had decided to leak our atomic secrets to the Soviets so there would be a mutual respect for each other and, in his opinion, reduce the threat of a nuclear war.

Now, in all honesty, I have no clue as to the truthfulness of this statement, but at the same time I have no reason to think the men telling me this were lying to me. I just don’t know.

What I do know is this, last week; someone who reads my columns sent me an e-mail and advised me to order a book called “Keynes at Harvard”. I found it on Amazon and must admit to you it is one of those books you will find hard to put down once you get started.

It is a handbook on socialism in this country. It was written in 1960.

The book explains how an economist named John Maynard Keynes got his socialist theories to be the order of the day at Harvard University. George Will (columnist and commentator) recently wrote “There are more Marxists in the Harvard faculty than there are in all of Europe.” The book goes on to state that the center point of the socialistic movement was the law school at Harvard.

Socialist, Math, Acorn by Jim Murphy

Wednesday - October 28,  2008
 
Greetings from the West Texas Regional Chapter of Vast Right Wing Conspiratorial Gun Clinging Sons of Jingoism.
 
Let me begin by voicing my opinion of the media coverage of the election up to this point.  ENOUGH!  If I hear the terms "Battleground State" or "Swing State" another time, I fear for anyone within my reach (family and friends excluded).  These are a couple of terms which have been completely over used by the media mutts.  Doesn't it make sense that ALL  STATES are in fact "Battleground States"?  If so, then doesn't it also make sense that if all the votes have been cast; and most of the results from the majority of the states are known;  and neither candidate has a clear victory at hand;  and  neither has enough electoral votes to claim victory; wouldn't it be possible for several or perhaps all of the remaining states to be "Swing States"?  Now for those of you residing in the "People's Republic of San Francisco" the remaining states would be able to "Swing" the election toward one particular candidate.  Ah, but not so.  Our idiot mainstream media, no, let me rephrase that, ALL  OF  OUR  MEDIA have already decided which states are "Swing States" just as they have decided which states are "Battleground States."  Just as they have decided who should be our next President.
 
So if the thought of the news media, and particularly the far left socialist leaning mainstream media, choosing our next President doesn't bother you then read no further.  The brutal truth is that NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, MSNBC, The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, Time Magazine and several more, are all in the tank for Barack Hussein Obama and have all attempted to do a real hatchet job on Sarah Palin.  Have they succeeded?  We will find out next Tuesday.
 
I believe it was yesterday when I had my TV on FOX News and it was in the time slot in the afternoon when Shepard Smith was hosting the program.  He had a telephone interview with Joe Wurzelbacher (to clarify this for the Freedom Loving Residents of the Socialist Workers State of Massachusetts, this would be Joe the Plumber").  Let me say at this point that I know several good people who live in the State of Massachusetts, however the majority of the voters in that state have chosen "Fat Teddy", John Kerry, and Barney Frank as elected officials so the sanity of the majority of the Massachusetts voters is definitely in question.

Tracking the Bailout ~ Transparency? D. Hill

As most of my regular readers know, I was dead set against the Bailout of our Financial Institutions.  I also firmly believe that this was a major step towards Socialism.  Regardless of my feelings or the feelings of most of the citizens of the United States, our government went ahead and instituted the 700 Billion dollar move towards Socialism.  One of the things they (our government) promised was transparency.  Well, let's talk about this for a minute. 

I found an article today that talks about the first of many "Deals" stemming from this Bailout.  As I expected, the details are kept secret.  I was under the impression that Transparency meant we would be able to see what was happening as the "Deals" were struck.  Apparently, I was wrong, the dictionary I use must be different from the one they use. Go Figure!

I found a website dedicated to watching the money set aside by the Bailout Legislation. www.bailoutsleuth.com   Here is the beginning of the article I mentioned at the beginning:

The Treasury Department has hired two big accounting firms to help keep tabs on the government's financial-industry rescue program, and once again certain basic elements of the deals are shrouded in secrecy.

A Nation of Fools by Peary Perry 10-23-08

In November of 1989, I was in Germany when the Berlin Wall started to come down. My friend and I drove to the border where we could see East Germany. Parts of the wall were already destroyed and I brought back two bricks. Later that evening, my friend took me to dinner at his parents’ house where I met his sister and brother-in-law. His brother worked for Volkswagen in Germany and seemed a affable sort of fellow. During the dinner, the conversation turned to politics and it was apparent very early that he believed in a socialistic society. His concept was that no one should earn or receive more than 3,500 marks (before the Euro) per month, no matter what their job was or what they did for a living.

Having been in business for myself virtually all of my adult life, I took exception to this idea and told him it would destroy the concept of entrepreneurialism in any economy. He strongly disagreed and said that his plan would give everyone the same advantages and would be fair to all. This would eliminate class distinctions.

Then I asked him if he thought it would be fair for someone, like a doctor to have gone to school for eight or ten years or a attorney, should they be limited to only 3,500 marks per month as well?

“Yes, they should” was his answer and he was sincere.

Then I asked why anyone would want to go to school, or work twelve and fifteen hours a day to get a business up and going if their income was going to be the same as someone who didn’t have an education or who didn’t want to work. Who would want to do this?

He said that everyone would want to do so. If you had a good work ethic, then you wouldn’t mind working harder so that others could have a better lifestyle. It was your patriotic duty to do so.

I sat there in amazement at one of the most absurd things I have heard come out of anyone’s mouth in all of my years. The sad thing was he wasn’t kidding. He was dead serious.

Another Benefit Package?

Another Benefit Package? You got it!  Our spend, spend, spend Congress is debating another 150 to 300 billion dollar Stimulus Package.  This along with our government's offer to bail out several banks in exchange for partial ownership of the bank brings to mind a statement General Jim Cash made on our Radio Show Thursday night.  He talked about three steps to Socialism.  Folks, ALL THREE OF THE STEPS ARE WELL UNDERWAY.

This audio clip from Thursday night says it all.
