Nobody Remembers Elihu Root and the ‘Invisible Government’
Nobody Remembers
Elihu Root was the Secretary of War (1899-1903) under McKinley and Theodore Roosevelt and Secretary of State(1905-1909) under Roosevelt. After that he became a Senator from New York (1909-15) and received the Nobel Peace Prize. At the Constitutional Convention of the State of New York, on August 30, 1915, he had a lot to say about the evils of the “invisible government” that he said had run New York for many years. He said that the government was not elected but was responsible only to the party boss in control of the state. He wanted to change the system that he viewed as corrupt.
Here’s a few excerpts from his speech:
What is the government of this state? What has it been doing during the forty years of my acquaintance with it? The government of the constitution? Oh, no: not half the time or halfway. For I don’t remember how many years, Mr. Conkling was the supreme ruler in the state: the governor did not count, the legislature did not count, comptroller’s and secretaries of state and whatnot did not count. It was what Mr. Conkling said, and in a great outburst of public rage he was pulled down.
Then Mr. Platt ruled the state: for nigh twenty years.
The party leader is elected by no one, accountable to no one, bound by no oath of office, removable by no one. I don’t criticize the men of the invisible government. How can I? I have known them all, and among them have been some of my dearest friends. But it is all wrong. It is all wrong that a government not authorized by the people should be continued superior to the government that is authorized by the people.
How it is accomplished? Mr. Chairmen it is done by patronage. The elected officer or the appointed officer, who is to be held responsible for the administration of his office desired to get men into the different positions of his office who will do the work in a way that is creditable to him and his administration. Whether it be a president appointing a judge, or a governor appointing a superintendent of public works, whatever it may be.
How is it about the boss? He has to urge the appointment of men whose appointment will consolidate his power and preserve the organization. The invisible government proceeds to build up and maintain it power by a reversal of the fundamental principle of good government, which is that men should be selected to perform the duties of the office,
The true one, looks upon appointment to office with a view to the service that can be given to the public. The other the false one, looks upon appointment to office with a view to what can be gotten out of it. A great number of men are put on the payrolls as a matter of patronage not of service, but of party patronage.
(Can you say Ambassador to Norway?)
Both parties are alike, all parties are alike. The system extends thorough all.
At the end of his speech this:
I have been told forty times since this Convention met that you cannot change it. We can try, can’t we? I deny that we cannot change it. I repel that cynical assumption which is born of the lethargy that comes from poisoned air during all these years. I assert that this perversion of democracy, this robbing democracy of its virility can be changed.
We can take this one step toward, not robbing the people of their part in government but toward robbing an irresponsible autocracy of its indefensible and unjust and undemocratic control of government, and return it to the people to be exercised by the men of their choice and their control. We cannot change it in a moment but we can do our share.
When I read it, I thought of the Bushes, the Clinton’s, Reid and Boehner…because as I have said, it’s the leaders of both houses that control everything. And the best man at stacking the deck against the common man with his invisible government is our current ‘President’, Barack Obama.
And here, way back in 1915, Elihu Root, wanted to do something to break the monopoly of the ‘invisible government.”
Nobody Thinks Mr. Root was right, and yet…things remain the same these 99 years later.
Nobody’s Fool: Woman in Ukraine
Nobody’s Fool
Just last week, Justice Scalia reminded Americans that if they thought that America would never see the day, when our own government would gather people up and put them in FEMA camps–that day would never come. We should think again…it could happen.
The very fact that Obama is staffing every government department with bullets should make us think, what are THEY expecting?
This women, who has no name, has spoken the best way she can…to tell the world, this is about freedom.
So, she wins the Nobody’s Fool award…because there, but for the grace of god, go we.
Think it couldn’t happen here? A Supreme Court Justice, begs to differ, and so do I.
Obama Leaves Golf Game to TTP!
Nobody Wins
Obama left his water-soaked golf course in Palm Springs yesterday to take his big gas guzzling plane down to Mexico, to further the dreams of the global elite to make the North American Free Trade a LOT bigger, with this new Asia pact.
TTP. Sounds like a DDT. But unlike DDT, it won’t save any lives.
Obama, flanked by his trade negotiator and secretaries of Commerce and Homeland Security, stepped off Air Force One and onto a red carpet in Toluca, near Mexico City, where an honor guard lined the walk to Obama’s limousine. At an ornate state government complex nearby, Obama was to meet with Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto and Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper during the North American Leaders’ Summit,
A full agenda awaited the three North American Free Trade Agreement partners, including commerce, immigration, energy and security. But rather than reopen NAFTA, the three countries are instead relying on negotiations underway to complete the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a trade bloc of 12 countries in the Americas, Asia and the Pacific.
Notice that in the video above, Obama is doing this outside of Congress. And that’s how Congress wants it…because they are paid by the same people.
What happened after NAFTA and CAFTA, and all those other wonderful trade agreements pushed by GE and GM and other big American multinationals? They got richer, and the middle class disappeared.
It’s been a well laid-out plan by the elites of the world in progressive steps.
The big banks and the big corporations have bought our politicians, and no matter if they are Marxist like Obama, or crony capitalists like the Bushes, they pull the strings.
It’s very clear to this nobody that we are a fascist nation. Most people just don’t know it, because they do control what you see on TV.
This is a very important visit, (Which has gotta only a few minutes of cable time) because if the Congress passes the TPP, without even reading it, then you can be sure your future has been sealed.
In the 1998 November Issue of Time Magazine, the whole issue was dedicated to the subject of corporate welfare-Titled:
The Corporate Welfare Costs You
Here’s the intro:
How would you like to pay only a quarter of the real estate taxes you owe on your home? And buy everything for the next 10 years without spending a single penny in sales tax? Keep a chunk of your paycheck free of income taxes? Have the city in which you live lend you money at rates cheaper than any bank charges? Then have the same city install free water and sewer lines to your house, offer you a perpetual discount on utility bills, and top it all off by landscaping our front yard at no charge? And pay to train your workers in your business?
It’s called economic development, or public private partnership. And YOU pay for it.
Yes, big companies are given wonderful freebees from you—-Just like sports stadium are given so many subsidies in the promise that they will create jobs, and your property taxes go up to pay for everything, not theirs.
But…they don’t create jobs, that’s the fantasy. These companies get free everything, and make big profits while the cost of the jobs to the taxpayers well exceeds the amount of jobs that are made. Each cost of each job is never paid back.
This has been going on in America for decades, and jobs are…lost. Yes that’s right, lost.
Example:
New York State officials gave GM $16.9million to retool an existing plants. Another $3 million in property and sales tax reduction.
The plant lost 300 jobs.
Another:
In Vance Alabama, the kids are so poor that they have portable classrooms, BUT the nearby Mercedes new plant was put up with a $253 million dollar package of incentives.
The rest of the Magazine is filled with one example after another. It gave me a headache just to read it.
America, (not so obviously) has become fascist at the highest levels. And our fortune 500 companies, along with their partners in crime in D.C., have raped and pillaged every last cent they can get out of you.
And that’s why they are going global. Middle America is broke.
It’s not the fact that big companies should not be allowed to expand, it’s when our politicians, work for them, and not us. All we here from our conservative politicians is that our companies are taxed too much. So, they get free money from the people, but the politicians tax them to get money, that does not come back to us.
Who screwing who?
Mexico and the United States are already merging. Obamacare is part of the globalization plan.
And tonight, while I think of Obama in Mexico, I can’t help but wonder, if he will be thanked by the gay men of Mexico for helping them erase AIDS.
Somehow, I don’t think we’ll see that picture.
Obama Was Promoted ALL over the World: Who Knew? Not us.
Nobody Wonders
I found these pictures by chance today, and I was taken aback because here in America we did not see ONE of these images on our cable networks anywhere. Evidently they were posted by the Atlantic right after Obama won the 2012 election, but what is shocking is that someone in the ‘leftist’ party was promoting the Obama presidency all over the world, not just here in the United States. Evidently the communists. If Mitt Romney had the same thing going on, I would have been just as shocked. Cities all over the world, had Obama tee-shirts, and Obama parties, and just WHO was promoting this?
India
Spain for Obama (cardboard Obama)
Romney loses and so does America
Muslim Mock American Election for Obama
Nobody Knows Where Freedom Went…
Nobody Knows
Nobody Knows where Obama is going to get the money for his latest “Hey, I’ll buy your vote, because I can!” idea. He wants to give every child that is born in America, $500 to put in a government savings account. Hispanic women have the lead in that area: 4 to 1. Nobody Knows just how much that will cost if Obama decides to give amnesty all by his lonesome pen, but he figures since he is losing his base, he has to give the Hispanics a free-be. Add that to the $17 trillion.
Nobody Knows, that since 2009, we have been giving millions of dollars to Mexican prostitutes, (men) to study AIDS…it is suppose to end this year. Nobody Knows just why our taxpayers should be paying so much to gay prostitutes in Mexico, but we can only guess that Obama thinks it’s very important. This is about keeping the Mexican prostitutes from disease….remember that on tax day, and also remember that Obama really FEELS the male prostitutes pain..in Mexico.
If I was a male prostitute here, I’d write my Congressman. Remember, it was in Mexico that the FBI got caught hanging out with…prostitutes…when Obama was there.
Nobody Knows that Bill Clinton once pardoned an ex Congressmen from jail, but he’s back in it again tonight: Former Illinois Democratic Rep. Mel Reynolds was arrested Monday in Zimbabwe for making pornographic films in hotels where he had accumulated $24,500 in unpaid bills, and had overstayed his visa by two months. Mel is good friends with Jesse Jackson, and so Nobody Knows why Obama has not pardoned Jesse’s son, yet. Where’s Bill when you need him?
Nobody Knows why Obama has decided to start demanding EPA get onto fixing the omissions on trucks, but if you think your bacon is high now…just wait…
Nobody Knows why Obama is always absent, when freedom calls. The good people in Kiev are giving up their very lives because they don’t want to be ruled by Russia..ever again. And in shame, Obama and the EU don’t even want to take sides. It’s too shameful to even witness. Reagan would have made a strong statement, but then again, Reagan fought for freedom. Obama’s idea of freedom is how much freedom he has to rule everyone’s lives.
(God be with the good people of Kiev who fight for freedom.) 
Nobody Knows, that my most favorite quote yesterday was from a man who was Johnny Carson’s top joke writer. He had this to say about Jay Leno, and the other comics on late night TV:
His competitors haven’t exactly hammered President Barack Obama, hardly a smidgen. The paucity of Obama jokes is the dog that didn’t bark. Like their news anchor counterparts, our hosts go gentle into that late night, despite the target-rich environment of this administration. With his pen and phone, our selfie-absorbed president is one whacked uncle away from appointing himself Supreme Leader.
Somebody—PLEASE—- whack that uncle.
The First Night of Jimmy Fallon…
Nobody Reports
Okay. Maybe I’m too old, but some of my friends were telling me that Jimmy Fallon was a real talent and I should give him a shot. So, last night I watched his historical first show.
Here’s my Nobody’s Opinion:
Jimmy is still in his childhood, where he told everyone after introducing his mom and dad, that they used to let him stay up late on school nights and watch Johnny Carson, and it shows. He had the SAME curtain, the SAME furniture, and probably Johnny’s old desk. WHY this is supposed to appeal to the newest hip generation of people under 30 I have no clue. I thought the set was boring…but not as boring as his opening jokes. He spent the whole first ten minutes going over how thankful he was to be there, and h
e thanked Johnny Carson, and Johnny Carson’s mother, and probably his trash man…and I was so shocked at how he couldn’t tell a simple joke, I was about to turn it off…but I’m glad I didn’t. I just turned the sound down.
And I would have missed the best moment of the night if I had turned the channel. —->
Will Smith was his first guest, and they did a cute little hip hop dance, but I swear I’ve seen that same skit before. Maybe some of you younger Saturday Night Live people can tell me if it’s an old skit, because I stopped watching Saturday Night Live after Eddie Murphy did his famous James Brown “Hot Tub” scene.
Who can top that?
The rest of the program was Bono and U2. Excuse me if you are a Bono fan, but I just have no desire to listen to their music. BUT…in fairness to him, because I can never take more than a few minutes of them, I listened to the song they played on the couch…which reafirmred my original thoughts: Bono..cannot sing. If you grew up on Jim Morrison and the Beatles, Bono sounds like a distant cousin that just formed a garage band in his basement and…well..sorry Bono fans. They many have some great music but I will probably never know. I just don’t like the man’s voice. I’d rather listen to AC/DC. 
And that’s okay with me. It’s just an opinion and not worth much…BUT…there were others out there who actually TURNED the channel when Jimmy went on and on too much about himself and his historical moment in American history. It’s been reported he had less viewers than Jay Leno’s last night. In fact, it matched Conan’s.
Jimmy cannot carry a show by himself, and last night proved it. Hopefully, he can convinced enough Hollywood and musical friends to do his little musical skits with him because intellectually, he can only appeal to…people under 40. I suggest he get some good writers and practice.
Unless, you like that kind of thing. Like I said, I haven’t seen him every night….and this isn’t the 1950’s anymore…
We have a wider channel choice now…don’t we?
Nobody’s Perfect: Bill Clinton VS Hillary Clinton
Nobody’s Perfect:
The 2016 Presidential election is already on it’s way: Hillary is the frontrunner, and she has already stated that she is going to run on women and children issues: What else has she got to run on? Her fabulous record?
And so…the logical thing to do is start hitting Hillary on her issue, which is, WHY did she let Bill Clinton, whose serial rapes and serial sexual encounters went on for so long—-why did she put up with him, if she truly cares about women? What kind of feminist is she? And why aren’t feminists angry at her?
Rand Paul has started the attack:
“Obviously, having sex with an intern in the office is inappropriate by any standard,” Paul said. “And where are the women who believe in women’s right, the women who allege some kind of war is going on by the other party, where are they to stand up and say, ‘You know what? Maybe Bill Clinton isn’t the best representative of our party since he really depicts what’s really gross and wrong with workplace harassment?’”
“Would you call him an unsavory character?” Malzberg asked.
“Yeah,” Paul replied. “I mean a predator, a sexual predator, basically.”
Katheen Willey this week, reminded every one of Hillary’s and Bill’s vast devastation of women:
Hillary Clinton is the war on women, and that’s what needs to be exposed here,” Willey said Sunday night on Aaron Klein’s WABC Radio show.
“The point is what this woman is capable of doing to other women while she’s running a campaign basically on women’s issues. It just doesn’t make any sense. She singlehandedly orchestrated every one of the investigations of all these women [who accused her husband of sexual crimes]. They’re the people reminding us of how sordid this all is.”
And then, Mitt Romney joined in:
Former President Bill Clinton “breached his responsibility” and embarrassed the United States while having an affair with intern Monica Lewinsky while in office, former candidate Mitt Romney said Sunday, but he doesn’t think his issues are relevant to a potential campaign for Hillary Clinton.
“She has her own record and her own vision,” Romney told NBC’ “Meet the Press” host David Gregory Sunday.
(Proving once again, why Mitt did not become President.)
The question here is, when it comes to imperfections, how does Hillary compare to Bill?
On the bad side, Bill Clinton was a criminal sexual predator, but as a politician, very few can or will ever match his expertise. He is much sharper on his feet than Hillary, and it was Bill that came to the aid of Obama and pushed him into the Presidency, with his great oratorical skills at the democratic conventions. Obama may be good at teleprompters, but he is no match for Bill Clinton when it comes to talking about any subject off his head. (see video) Bill Clinton as President did more damage than good…and he would have done more if not for Congress.
Hillary on the other hand—her best talent was in protecting their power–protecting Bill’s mistakes. Her presidency will be a continuation of Obama’s and probably more like Hugo Chavez or Cuba. She is more the socialist/communist than Bill, who is smart enough to understand capitalism. And she is a lousy speaker. That’s her biggest problem. She cannot hold anyone’s attention for too long. All the Republicans need to do is get a great speaker to articulate her faults to beat her.
I think Bill Clinton knows this, but does Hillary?
So, whose wins the Nobody’s Perfect award for the week?
Neither one, they’re both despicable.
Kathleen Willey, (a woman who was sexually attacked by Bill Clinton) summed up my feeling about it best:
“They take up all the oxygen in the room, and everybody is depressed. We’re gonna go back to all the sordid details [if Hillary runs for president]. They need to just go away because they’re forcing themselves on us is the way I feel. Just pack your bags. You’ve had your 15 minutes. … Stop forcing us to have to look at this stuff again. We’re sick of it!”
Well said Kathleen…think I’ll read your book.
President’s Day: It’s all about the money…
Nobody Flashes
Today is President’s Day, and what does it mean to most American?
First: No Trash pickup
Second: No mail
Third: All government workers get a day off, which is half the working people in the United States.
While the original intention was to honor George Washington’s Birthday, leave it to politicians to change things they don’t like….and in this case we now celebrate President’s Day in order to give a day off to workers…they just expanded the holidays:
This from History:
The shift from Washington’s Birthday to Presidents’ Day began in the late 1960s when Congress proposed a measure known as the Uniform Monday Holiday Act. Championed by Senator Robert McClory of Illinois, this law sought to shift the celebration of several federal holidays from specific dates to a series of predetermined Mondays. The proposed change was seen by many as a novel way to create more three-day weekends for the nation’s workers, and it was believed that ensuring holidays always fell on the same weekday would reduce employee absenteeism. While some argued that shifting holidays from their original dates would cheapen their meaning, the bill also had widespread support from both the private sector and labor unions and was seen as a surefire way to bolster retail sales.
So…LOL…it’s still the old line…GO SHOPPING!
Later on, Presidents decided (Richard Nixon) that ALL presidents should be honored on Presidents Day, due mainly to ego…what else?
And in case you haven’t noticed, this last week, there was a report put out on the richest and poorest Presidents. George Washington was said to have (by today’s standards) $525 million…making him look like one of those RICH elites: While Woodrow Wilson, the father of the ‘progressives’ was poor. Nowhere in this historical reporting were the Bushes, Clinton’s, or Obama’s.
God forbid anyone think THEY have money.
So, this Nobody plans to celebrate on George’s ACTUAL birthday, this Saturday…the 22nd. I plan to go buy a lottery ticket.
And take out the trash.
Obama’s House of Cards
Nobody’s Opinion
Right before this interview today on George Stephanopoulos This Week, they showed “President” Obama talking about Kevin’s Spacey’s very popular Netflix program: House of Cards. (I could NOT find Obama’s take anywhere on Youtube) Obama laughed as he usually does when caught in a lie, and remarked that House of Cards was simply a fantasy, but he sure wished that he was like Frank Underwood (Kevin Spacey’s character) because he could get a lot more done.
If you haven’t seen House of Cards, it’s like the West Wing, but more realistic.
Obama’s comment reminded me of a comment that President George W. Bush’s Quote made while HE was President.
“I told all four that there are going to be some times where we don’t agree with each other, but that’s OK. If this were a dictatorship, it would be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I’m the dictator,” Bush joked.—CNN.com, December 18, 2000
Every conservative that watches Frank Underwood on House of Cards, thinks he is watching every democratic politician that every graced the halls of power. George Stephanopoulos and Obama have gone out their way in interviews to reiterate how NOTHING like the program ever happens in real life Washington D.C..
Right.
The problem I have is deciding if Obama is more like Frank Underwood or Tony Soprano. Remember when he said when they bring a knife to the fight, he will bring a gun?
Before you say, “He was just kidding.”…ask yourself: Should any politician even talk that way?
House of Cards has become a big hit. As the writer said tonight, where else are you going to find so much drama but in Washington?
Kevin says in the beginning of this interview, most people think that the show is 99 percent correct. Many of us do believe that our politicians, murder, cheat, steal, and do just about everything under the sun, and to think this, is not farfetched at all. It’s not a fantasy. Just turn on your TV set.
What’s even more impossible to believe, is that so many people still don’t think our government would resort to such measures.
But…we know, by the polls, that both Congress and the President are at all-time lows…so I’d say we’re getting there. And that’s the point: THEY know it too.
(What to do about it? )
We see it right before our eyes. Corruption is at the highest levels of our government and nobody ever goes to jail. The Clintons alone had at least 60 people who worked for them over the years, all mysteriously die—whether by accident, or heart attacks. What are the odds?
When Hillary Clinton, as First Lady, ran into Vince Foster’s office to shred documents, after he ‘killed’ himself, and before the police could get there—well—- it didn’t exactly make her look innocent. What was she looking for?
When Obama lies almost every day, even at the expense of people losing jobs and medical care, can we expect him NOT to be capable of murder?
Many Americans think so, and that’s why the series is so popular. Kevin is brilliant in House of Cards, but notice, at the end of this interview he makes the same point about politicians that Steve Spielberg made in Lincoln—which is: Presidents must commit a few crimes to get the end result they want. In LBJ’s case it was the passage of three civil rights bills. Therefore the ends justify the means. It’s the one solid mantra of any ‘progressive.’ They live by that, and it excuses every single crime they make. That’s why Sibelius was never held responsible, or the IRS, never held responsible, or Hillary Clinton, never held responsible….
House of Cards at My House
(Hell, Bill Clinton knowingly gave blood filled with AIDS to Canada while governor of Arkansas, and he was never held responsible.)
Kevin Spacey is a liberal last time I checked, and the new series mentions the Tea Party, the elections coming up…and some themes of liberals, like the “rapes’ of the military, and big businesses controlling the White House. But, Kevin’s character is a democratic rascal…so House of Cards is going to be a big hit with the majority of the American people, just like 24 was.
But— I remind myself, the very popular 24 helped American get used to the idea of electing the first black President by portraying him as one of the most honest, politicians to ever grace the White House–the actor himself even admitted this:
Haysbert believes that his playing of David Palmer on 24 helped Barack Obama—whom Haysbert supported—to win the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination.[10][11]–Wikipedia
How did that turn out? Obama was NOT the honest President from 24, in fact, he was the exact opposite.
So…Are we being manipulated again, with the very lovable character of Frank Underwood?
Wasn’t Tony Soprano lovable? Are you seeing the pattern?
Is the House of Cards just another social propaganda mechanism to get the masses of conservatives left in America, hooked on a pop culture’s series, only to find out, that Hollywood puts out the baited hook, you get addicted, then all of a sudden you are accepting the fact that Presidents should be able to kill, cheat, lie and destroy, for the benefit of –the American people?
A ruthless man, is to be admired?
And would Hollywood participate in such deception?
That thought has been a giant dichotomy to me. Why would Steven Spielberg make such a strong stand and support for Israel, and then come out and support Obama.
Or—is it always just about the money?
Do they try to write the truth in-between the lines, but are as duplicitous to the politicians as the politicians are to us?
Nobody Knows, but I wish I did. And that’s the theme I am coming up with. Many democrats believe the American people are not capable of running their own lives and only the ELITES know what is good for us, and I’ve even heard some democrats say that they were GLAD that Obama lied to the people, otherwise Obamacare would have never been passed.
And if that’s true, then I think it’s about time we blew Obama’s flimsy and corrupt House of Cards back to Hollywood.
Frank Underwood, would, I HOPE— be pleased.

Russia Has a Taste of the St. Louis Blues.
Nobody Flashes
Yes–I’m from St. Louis, and the Blues are our hockey team, and just in case you have been watching House of Cards (yes, I have and I did) instead of the Olympics tonight, T.J. Oshie, our hometown Blues boy, DEFEATED the Russians in a shootout game in Sochi!
I would have liked it better if NBC hadn’t of posted Michelle Obama’s congratulations tweet and Obama’s phone call to him while they wrapped up their broadcast at 10.30 pm…because it’s T. J. Oshie’s moment, and they just HAD to get top billing on his achievements.
I don’t ever remember any U.S. Presidents ever doing that for just one player.
Total fame hogs, the Obama’s. They should get on that giant hot dog with Miley.
Anyway, America won: …sweet.
Nobody Reads Liberty and Tyranny
Nobody Reads
Every night, while I’m trying to figure out the next day’s blog, I have Mark Levin on the radio. I remember when he used to call up Sean Hannity and give his two cents…long before he had his own show and now is one of the top conservative voices in America.
In his book, Liberty and Tyranny, he attacks those whom Glenn Beck calls ‘progressives’. Mark calls them Statists. The rest of us just call them crooks. It’s a quick read, and although, if you read a lot, you won’t find anything surprising, but good, solid, common sense conservative ideas repeated again, in a very legal sense.
What IS worth noting is his conservative Manifesto at the back. Here’s a few of his ideas:
Eliminate the progressive income tax, replace it with a flat tax or national sales tax.
Eliminate the automatic withholding of taxes. Eliminate the corporate tax. Eliminate the death tax.
Limit federal spending each year to less than 29 percent of the gross domestic product.
Eliminate lifetime tenure for federal judges.
Eliminate monopoly control of government education.
Eliminate the federal Department of Education.
End multiculturalism, diversity and bilingualism in public institutions.
These are just a few…that all conservatives would LOVE to see happen: Trouble is, the last time the Republicans held all three branches, they kept on the ‘progressive’ and statist path, and in 2016, Jeb Bush, Chris Christie, Marko Rubio, and Paul Ryan, would all do the same, no matter what they say. I REMEMBER George W. Bush’s campaigning. He sounded just like Mark Levine. It’s all about the global corporations and the money in Washington. Unless we get non-progressive/statists in office, things will remain the same.
Rand Paul is trying to reform the Republican party from within. But…realistically, that’s not going to happen any time soon….and Rand Paul, says that a third party doesn’t have a chance.
He should know, he is the son of Ron Paul, who tried.
Still…It’s good for us to have these voices giving us hope everyday…but in the meantime..while Mark Levine’s can tell us HOW things should be, none of us see that happening short of revolution. Which is why this Nobody Thinks Obama is stocking up on bullets and training men in his $63 million dollar fake American city built in Virginia.
The NSA is telling them just how mad the people really are.
Anyway, Mark is a great American…the book is worth the read. Besides, let’s not forget that he was part of Reagan’s cabinet, and he quotes one of Reagan’s most famous lines at the end of his book:
“Freedom is never more than on generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”
Obamacare has now, truly enslaved us, and I agree with Mark:
“We Conservatives need to get busy.”

Obama Goes on his 483th Vacation…BECAUSE He Can!
Nobody Cares
Obama has gone on another vacation…on Valentine’s Day even…where even past Presidents would never dare to venture out without their wives. Not far from Las Vegas: He going to Palm Beach.
The White House is saying it’s a business trip, apparently, King Abdullah or Jordan was in Washington the D.C. the last week, and Obama was just too busy to see him, so he invited him out for a few days of golf.
Mr. Obama’s meeting with King Abdullah, at Sunnylands in Rancho Mirage, Calif., raised questions at the White House on Wednesday, because the two leaders are practically running into each other here and Mr. Obama appears to have no other official business in Southern California.
There is, however, a tantalizing bit of unofficial business for a president whose wife and daughters will be away on their own travels, (Where are THEY going?) leaving him alone on Presidents’ Day weekend in a secluded oasis where the forecast is calling for mostly sunny skies and a temperature of 89 degrees.
King Abdullah is leaving his wife somewhere too. Somebody should look for Air Force One to land in Las Vegas.
“I think we’re going to low-key it for Valentine’s Day,” Mrs. Obama told Ryan Seacrest last month. “We have been married for 21 years, and he never forgets a Valentine’s Day or a birthday.”
Right. Sure. What did we buy her?
Give him a few days and he’ll be off again. On March 3,Obama will sit down at the White House for his latest encounter with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. (Who no doubt will be made to exist out the back door again) Then at the end of March, he will travel to Saudi Arabia, for what is likely to be a sharp personal reminder that Saudi King Abdullah shares Netanyahu’s doubts about Obama’s strategy of testing the sincerity of an Iranian diplomatic opening.
Obama seems to think that Nobody Cares if he takes ANOTHER vacation playing golf, while the rest of the country struggles with power outages and snow.
His excuse, as always is: Hey, other Presidents played here!
Yep. Maybe so, but not after JUST taking a 2 week vacation in Hawaii and on Valentine’s Day.
Like he said: “I can do whatever I want.”
Too bad he wants to be King.
About
I am a nobody. If the different classes of America were color-coded, I would be in the yucky brown, one rung up from the bottom. I grew up in Naples, Florida and live near the Mississippi River now with my husband and two dogs. I am part of the slowly disappearing middle-class. I was a musician most of my life: drummer/singer/keyboards—but I retired before the plastic surgery flu hit. I have no degrees, which could be a good thing…depending on how you view our educational system. I do have three patents…but that really doesn’t make me a somebody. The one thing that is constant in my life is my OPINIONS, which i have more than perhaps even Carl Sagan could have imagined…mostly political. (yes…my ancestors were crabby buggers)
Hopefully other nobody’s will put their opinions on my site. But, if you happen to be a somebody, you’re more than welcomed to help out.
It’s my Nobody Opinion that Nobody’s Perfect, and Nobody Cares, that Nobody Knows why Nobody Wins, and when that happens, Nobody Wonders, why Nobody Flashes, why Nobody’s Fooled, but then Nobody remembers that Nobody ALWAYS Reports the truth.
