There's Just Too Much to Report On!



So here's a synopsis:

Democrats want to ensure that illegal aliens get health care.
Now, wait a minute....they are illegal, in our country against the law....they don't pay taxes....HUH? http://washingtontimes.com/news/2009/sep/28/liberals-seek-health-care-access-for-illegals/
And, as we know, President Obama proposes to make all illegal aliens LEGAL, as he said at the Congressional Hispanic Caucus:

Social Security Goes Broke
There's no more money. Period. Which means taxpayers will have to find more money to put into Social Security, because Congress has always used fancy bookkeeping to rob the fund. http://www.heritage.org/Research/SocialSecurity/wm2632.cfm

Three terrorist attacks in the US were found and squashed this past week
(One right here in Dallas!)
A few tidbits about terrorism:
Today, Senate Republicans offered legislation to block the transfer of 148 of the "real bad guys" at Guantanamo Bay to other places. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/sep/29/exclusive-senators-try-block-funding-close-gitmo/print/-senators-try-block-funding-close-gitmo/print/
For more on Guantanomo Bay, see my blog of May 22, 2009.
Also today, Senate Democrats are seeking legislation to repeal immunity to communications company who have helped in wire-tapping efforts to stop terrorism. These Senators call these "warrantless" and "illegal" wiretaps under President Bush. http://dodd.senate.gov/?q=node/5238 --Even though these wire-taps have helped stop these terrorists.

President Obama chairs U.N. Security Council, supports nuclear disarmament
And Iran responds by firing off its newest and best medium-range missiles, capable of hitting Israel, parts of Europe, and American trooops in the Middle East. From Ayatollah Khamenei, "The armed forces of the Islamic Republic are now more powerful than ever and fully prepared to foil foreign threats."
Ouch.

However, France's President Sarkozy accused Obama of being a wimpy idealogue (my words)--"President Obama dreams of a world without weapons...but right in front of us two countries are doing the exact opposite," Mr. Sarkozy said, upset that Mr. Obama was asking for more talks when he (Mr. Obama) was aware of Iran's secret nuclear plant. "What good has proposals for dialogue brought the international community? More uranium enrichment and declarations by the leaders of Iran to wipe out a UN member state off the map." You need to read this: http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2009/09/29/sarkozys_contempt_for_obama.html

So, what are now President Obama's plans to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear power?
(Except for the fact that Mr. Obama has already stated Iran should be allowed to be a nuclear power, for peaceful purposes only, of course.)
Mr. Obama will hold talks with Iran beginning this Thursday.
One problem--Iran refuses to talk about its once-secret nuclear fuel plant that it has been hiding.

Well, those talks sound like they're going to be real effective....

American Troops--More Casualties this year, 2009
than any other year and more than 2001-2004 combined. Just something you probably won't find in the media. http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/politics/Without-Bush-media-lose-interest-in-war-caskets-8310113-62427012.html

Al Gore says President Obama isn't doing enough about climate change:

And folks are upset that Mr. Obama isn't pushing cap-and-tax, which BTW will add about $1700 per family per year increase in taxes.
But Fidel Castro is happy with Mr. Obama's speech on climate change
Obama's blaming the US for global warming "was without a doubt a brave gesture," Castro wrote. http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5hrsJ4qSe4ne2_544A7Wzg4_uT7TwD9AT2O683

My vote for the UN speech of the week: Mr. Netanyahu from Israel--"To those who gave this Holocaust denier (speaking of the UN allowing Ahmadinejad to speak) a hearing, I say on behalf of my people. ... Have you no shame? Have you no decency?"
This is also after "Obama just put Israel 'on the chopping block,' " according to former U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. John Bolton, referring to President Obama's assertion that "America does not accept the legitimacy of continued Israeli settlements."

N.B. The above seal is the coat of arms of the United States, first seen in 1782.
