My Wish List for America

Kimberly Phillips

       I.            Health& Human Services

1.      No babies for money.  Welfare benefits are fixed at the time of enrollment and will NOT increase with the birth of additional children.

2.      Maximum of 18 months government assistance after which community assistance/charity will take over.

3.      No federal aid for abortion.  No federal aid for embryonic stem cell research – if it’s that “promising” then a private investor will pick it up

    II.            Healthcare Reform

1.      Prohibit insurance from paying greater than 80% of actual cost: patients need to have some skin in the game and will dramatically control costs when they are so motivated (actual experience). If the doctor discounts for the patient, the insurance company participates in the discount. Enforce with insurance fraud statutes.

2.      Revive charity hospitals: this will give doctors a place to donate care, students to train, and provide for the needy without huge tax based entitlement programs.

3.      Tort reform: prohibit any patient who has received discounted or free care from suing, and implement a loser pays system.

4.      Remove the barriers to increased use of mid level providers such as Physician Assistants; they provide 80% of the care, at the same quality, and for far less money than doctors.

Results: Health Care costs drop like a rock; insurance premiums (including malpractice) become affordable, and access to care increases. Additionally, Medicare/Medicaid fade away, taxes go down, government budgets become reasonable.

 III.            Foreign Relations

1.      USA out of UN, and NATO.  UN out of the USA.  We owe them nothing!  We apologize for NOTHING.

2.      The United States will not recognize the authority of the “World Court”, “International Community”, Human Rights Organizations or the Geneva Convention with regards as to how enemy combatants or terrorists are interrogated or incarcerated. 

3.      The United States will ask permission of no “International Body” in order to protect and defend our borders, citizens or national interests.

4.      No foreign aid – Don’t borrow to aid Afghanistan, Africa, the G20, World Bank etc.

 IV.            Immigration

1.      Enforce immigration laws; no sanctuary cities

2.      Secure the border -- the entire 3200 miles of the southern border.

a.      Cement block wall that is 250 feet below ground, 250 feet above ground ½ miles thick. 

b.      Manned by armed National Guardsmen sharpshooters with M16s and German shepherd drug sniffing dogs

3.      English is the OFFICIAL language of the United States of America.

a.      All official business and documents will be in English

b.      Foreign languages will be offered as electives in school

c.       Fluency in English is required prior to graduation from high school

d.      Basic understanding of English and the ability to take a citizenship test in English, and pass with a MINIMUM of 90% will be required for immigration to the United States.

    V.            National Security

1.      Destroy the criminal enclaves of Islam in the United States (money laundering operations, CAIR and fronts for funding terrorism against the United States and our allies. 

2.      No more “student” or “visitor” visas for Muslims; deport them as a “National Security Risk”.

3.      National “anti-Islamization” immersion classes within the prisons and Nation of Islam congregations. 

4.      Members of Islamic mosques must take an oath of allegiance to the United States. 

5.      All religious and/or political institutions agree to be monitored for incitement to terrorist acts or Jihadist recruiting by the FBI.

 VI.            Economy& Taxation

1.      Return to gold standard

2.      National Flat tax

3.      No corporate welfare – if they can’t make it in a Capitalist system there is a legal out; bankruptcy.

VII.            Energy

1.      End America’s dependence on foreign oil – Drill Here Drill Now

2.      End the power of the EPA to stop offshore drilling, and sale of land within states for clean development (i.e. oil shale reserves on state or federal land).

3.      Stop the insane overregulation against building new nuclear power plants. 

VIII.            Government

1.      Term Limits (2 terms for Congress, 1 term in Senate, 2 as President). 

2.      No personal use of campaign donations before, during or after election

3.      No government recognition or endorsement of any political party on any official document.

4.      End members of Congress retiree lifetime pension/pay/benefits.  It’s a part time and temporary job, not a career.

5.      Eliminate Judicial Activism.  Open judges up to not only a retention vote but also a recall vote that will remove them from the bench for abuse of power.  In other words, control whacked out judges through a check and balance system by the people.

6.      If a member of Congress writes a budget line item that is passed into law it must take effect during their term in office and it expires at the end of their term in office; no holdovers.

7.      Eliminate pork/pet projects.  Any earmark placed within a bill must directly relate to the parent bill.

a.      If it is an economic stimulus bill then each and every earmark must list how it will stimulate the economy by which benchmarks it will be measured and a time line for re-assessment

  IX.            Miscellaneous

2.      Stop the assault against traditional family values.

a.      Marriage is defined as a legal union between 1 man and 1 woman and both persons are of legal consenting age (over 18years).  DEAL WITH IT.

a.      Eliminate government bailouts; there is no such thing as “Too Big To Fail”

b.      Eliminate Unions and their TOXIC contracts. 

c.       Eliminate the ACLU -- this is redundant as they ARE a UNION

4.      Professional organizations are just that, no more lobbying under the cover of professional societies (NEA, ABA, AMA, ANA etc.) Furthermore, Professional associations are no longer allowed to use dues or donations for PAC/lobbying purposes.

5.      Eliminate the National Endowment for the Arts; again, if the project is worthwhile it will be funded by private donors.

6.      ONE appeal for a criminal; no more abusing the judicial system with endless appeals.

     X.            Voting

1.      All voters must be registered and verified as eligible to vote 3 months prior to a given election. 

2.      No more Individual State Primaries or Caucuses.  There will be a national primary and a national general election. 

3.      Every registered voter will be issued an ATM like voter card that will have 4 tiers of verification prior to their vote being validated.

a.      Picture

b.      Embedded demographics (Name, DOB, Address, SSN, DL#)

c.       PIN (Unique)

d.      Finger print/retinal scan

4.      Machines will be nationwide but your local elections will come up when you insert your card and your vote will be credited to your home district.  This eliminates the need for absentee ballots.

5.      Registered voters will be notified of polling machines locations including domestic, foreign, or on military bases.

6.      Anyone attempting to fraudulently vote will trip security system in the machine to suck up your card with a notice that says:

!!!ATTEMPTED VOTER FRAUD!!!

MULTIPLE SUBMISSIONS IN ELECTION

AND/OR

ATTEMPTED IDENTITY FRAUD

YOUR CARD WILL BE RETURNED BY US POSTAL SERVICE

60 DAYS POST ELECTION

Help Wanted: A Congressional Reminder

It’s time to get honest with ourselves. The Republican National Committee has worse taste in candidates than I have had in boyfriends and boy have I dated some doozies. After George H.W. Bush’s tax gaff and his failure to launch a kill strike on Saddam Hussein, we got Clinton, then we allowed ourselves to be duped into running Bob Dole and while he was a good senator an honorable fellow and WW2 veteran he wasn’t a closer when it came to a Presidential race. After eight years of the Clinton 3 ring circus it was time to try a re-tread of the same blue print. We ran another Bush. Silly us we assumed that George W. Bush was a conservative. How could we be so stupid? It’s not like he didn’t have a track record of capitulating in Texas. Then again, Democrats in Texas are Republicans in Minnesota. So he was touted as being a coalition builder. We bought into his snake oil salesman pitch of being a “compassionate conservative” the very statement makes me want to lose my lunch.  The reality is that “compassionate conservatism” was nothing more than liberalism wrapped in the flag. George W. Bush blew so many ‘golden opportunities’ it’s just silly. So here are just a few:

1.    After the heinous Saudi sponsored terrorist attacks on our soil he came up with the brilliant strategy that Americans should continue to shop and travel – to keep the engine of the economy going – well now with 20/20 hindsight we know where that idea got us …

2.    Medicare Drug Benefit – one of the biggest government entitlement programs designed and we have NO way to pay for it.

3.    No Child Left Behind – Great idea George – teach to a test rather than tried and true principles. While I appreciate your attempt to take on the Teacher’s Union and weeding out teachers who were worthless, this was not the way to do it. What we needed was expanded Charter Schools and a National School Voucher Program so that parents could use their tax dollars to send their child to private schools.

4.    Failure to name our enemy – Islam – and instead going out of your way to embrace domestic enemies through the likes of CAIR. 

5.    A totally mismanaged “War on Terror” … Because you were afraid of offending your Saudi business contacts and failed to name the enemy you allowed the UN and the media to run the war rather than the military until it was damn near too late. Shock and Awe became a bumper sticker. The very notion of ‘nation building’ in the Middle East is ludicrous. We should have done a Dresden Style Attack on Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Iran simultaneously and airdropped the rest of the Islamic world sample bottles of Kaopectate. The message: You attack us, we destroy you …

6.    The economy … well what can be said he started us on the road to the destruction of the free market, capitalism, and private industry. He started the bailout and nationalization of banks and industries that would have been better served by declaring bankruptcy, getting out of toxic contracts with unions and re-organizing. The problem with government is that they are into instant gratification (can we call that a Monica?) rather than allowing the market to correct for bubbles and baubles.

Ok, enough of Bush and his failures … History will judge him and I don’t think it will be kind.

The Republicans under the Bush administration screwed the pooch big time. They were a rudderless ship in a squall. We watched them carry the water for the Bush policies and we lost in midterm elections and in the Presidential year. The Republicans have become impotent not only because they lost their majority standing in both the House and the Senate but also because they gave up the principles that got them elected in the first place. They drifted to the middle, buying into the “lie of the day” that moderation would allow them to keep their jobs. 

12 Values

• Honesty
• Reverence
• Hope
• Thrift
• Humility
• Charity
• Sincerity
• Moderation
• Hard Work
• Courage
• Personal Responsibility
• Gratitude

All of the principles of Conservatism fit within these 9 Principles and 12 Values. It’s time that Congress gets on the same page as the people of this nation. That we put our National Security, Our National Interests, our National Sovereignty ahead of their desire to keep a job that was only supposed to be a temp job anyway. The founding fathers never imagined that we would have career politicians; it would be an affront and an obscenity to them. It is time to clean house – the entire house. If you want to keep your job then prove it and earn it … there is NO Tenure track any more. We the people are tired of this globalism of the internationals being allowed to dictate our policies. We believe that in order to be a Superpower, once again that we will not capitulate to the UN or to NATO. We do not need nor do we require the world’s permission to defend our sphere of influence. We demand that our government stop living in a utopian pipe dream and start answering to the real threats facing us. We demand that you, congress, represent us or submit your resignation. There are many Americans looking for a job these days and I am betting more than one of them could do a better job than some of you. This is reality … do your job or get pink-slipped. We’ve had just about enough.

  Pieces of the “Peace” Process

The New York Times, that bastion of liberal guilt that makes even Jews hate themselves has published yet another scream against Israel. In the famous words of Gomer Pyle, USMC … “Surprise, surprise, surprise!” 

Read it all here: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/27/opinion/27fri1.html?_r=2&ref=opinion

This writing though is going to be focused “like a laser beam” on taking this nonsense apart – paragraph by paragraph -- and exposing liberalisms naked bias against Israel with clarity and intellectual honesty so that even those with only the mildest interest in the Middle East will be able to identify it. 

According to the NY Times Editorial requires the following in order for Israel to be considered “A Partner for Peace”

1.       Negotiate with the Palestinian Authority for Peace

a.      Israelhas been negotiating with the Palestinian Authority and Fatah under the auspices of The United States State Department for years. They continued to concede their rightful and sovereign territory even to the detriment of their own people and national security not to mention national interests. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice demanded that Israel buy into the “Two State Solution” and “The Road Map to Peace” even though there was no commitment to peace from the Palestinian Authority or Fatah.    For more information on the history of the “Two State Solution” read the following excellent article by Victor Sharpe In The American Thinker. http://www.americanthinker.com/2009/03/the_two_state_solution_is_87_y.html

b.      In fact, Fatah is as much a militant terrorist organization as Hamas is the only difference is that the Fatah terrorists show up at United Nations meetings in suits and ties; this makes them “acceptable” even though they are just as vehemently committed to the destruction not only of Israel as a country but the Jewish people as a whole as Hamas, Hezbollah, the Muslim Brotherhood, Al Qaeda et al. 

What liberals fail to admit is that Islam is the foundation of this virulent hatred of Israel and the Jews, and they are 100% committed to the annihilation of both; in order for there to be a “partnership for peace” there has to be more than one party at the negotiating table. I would like one person to show me concrete evidence of even one commitment to peace that the Palestinians have kept. You cannot because it simply does not exist. The Palestinians are committed to one thing and one thing only and that is maintaining their global status as victims because it works for them. Liberals love to make the Jews and Israel look bad because it works for them even though there is absolutely no basis in reality for their position.

2.      Freezing further settlement construction and expansion in the West Bank

a.      By this logic the best way to eliminate the squalor the Palestinians choose to live in is to destroy the towns that the Jews are building in their own sovereign territory.   The Palestinians choose to live in their “refugee” camps because then the liberal human rights activists will spotlight the nasty, mean and cruel Israelis. The Palestinians have a country all their own and it is not within the borders of sovereign Israel. The Palestinian people belong to Egypt and Jordan. Neither country wants them, why you may ask? Put very simply it is because by and large the Palestinians are trouble makers, thugs and criminals that threaten the peace and security of those nations. In their mind it is easier and ultimately more beneficial to their cause to prop up a war with Israel than to demand that the Palestinians assimilate into their society and play by the rules of civilization rather than tribal terrorism. 

b.      The Jews have every right to this land and the Palestinians are nothing more than “squatters” on the land. The Jews have obtained all the permits required by not only Israeli but International Law in order to build communities and yet they are vilified. They live in fear that even after obtaining these permits to build that the IDF will be sent in by the liberal Defense Minister Ehud Barak to destroy their homes and communities.

3.      He should lift roadblocks between Palestinian cities and towns that are not needed for security.

a.      Exactly which roadblocks are not needed for security? Each time Israel has lifted roadblocks security checkpoints into Israel terrorist attacks have increased. I am sensitive to how inconvenient it is for the Palestinians who benefit from working in Israel to be held up in long lines, but I would remind all the readers here that it is pretty damn inconvenient to be blown up when you walk into a mall, a restaurant, a hotel, a school or get on a bus too. When the Palestinians call for and succeed in ending their proclivity for terrorism and suicide/homicide bombings then we can talk about lifting roadblocks and eliminating security checkpoints. I assure you the Jews aren’t excited about living in a country that requires them to be scanned every time they want to go into the grocery store. Here in America, we complain about being scanned and having to take off our shoes in the airport, can you even imagine living in a country that has experienced so many terrorist attacks against them that you would have to go through these same security measures to pick up a gallon of milk? Would you stand for such measures unless you were committed to peace? Of course not, you would initiate whatever it takes to curtail the problem.

4.      In East Jerusalem, he should stop the humiliating eviction of Palestinians.

a.      Stop the humiliating eviction of Palestinians? My God, can we please just visit reality for a moment? These Palestinians are building illegally without permits in East Jerusalem. They are squatters! This is no different than if your neighbor foreclosed on their home and a homeless person moved in; why is it humiliating to evict a criminal? Why are we supposed to feel sorry for those who break the law?

5.      In Gaza, he must expand exceptions to the blockade to allow the import of cement and reconstruction materials.

a.      Do you know what the Palestinians in Gaza are building with the building materials and cement allowed to come through? They aren’t rebuilding schools, grocery stores, or even homes; no they are using these materials to rebuild the tunnels used to smuggle weapons used for attacks against Israel in terrorist attacks against civilians. To suggest that Israel allow materials that will be used in their annihilation is not only stupid it is obscene.

6.      He will not get in the way of the militant group Hamas entering a Palestinian unity government with the rival Fatah faction--as long as that government is committed to preventing terrorism and accepts past agreements between Israel and the Palestinians.

a.      The day Hamas, Hezbollah, Fatah, The Muslim Brotherhood, Al Queda et al will commit to prevent terrorism and accept past agreements with Israel and the Palestinians is the day we all sit down and eat a pulled pork sandwich – it isn’t gonna happen folks – these are terrorist organizations to even suggest they would give up and prevent further terrorist attacks is just silly utopian fantasy born of sparking up a dooby in some Chelsea basement coffee shop.

7.      He will recognize that the United States has its own interests in diplomacy with Syria, Iran and the Palestinians — and allow the Obama administration the freedom to pursue them.

a.      The United States has no national interests in diplomacy with states that sponsor and import terrorism. 

b.      The United States certainly has sphere of influence in the Middle East. Politically, however, it has become trendy to attempt to broker a peace agreement there, regardless of how fragile or how it betrayed our one true ally in the region because it would make us look good in front of the UN and the “International Community”. Every administration since Carter has tried to broker a ‘midnight deal’ all of which have been an unmitigated disaster not because of Israel’s failure to play but because the Palestinians have no intention of ever being serious about peace. 

8.      He also will not start a preventive war with Iran.

a.      In the early 80’s Israel destroyed the nuclear reactor built by Saddam Hussein; is there any sane person today who is not eternally grateful for that ‘preemptive’ attack? Of course not; at the time though Israel was vilified. Iran and their insane leader will lie, cheat and steal their way to a nuclear weapon. We know they have no intention of utilizing this technology for infrastructure. The leading international intelligence agencies know that Iran, just like North Korea, is interested only in one thing being the country with the nuclear weapon who can take out Israel and then the United States.  “First the Saturday people, then the Sunday people” is their mantra and even if they choose not to use it themselves they will sell it to the highest bidding terrorist organization. We should be begging Israel to take out Iran, since we don’t have the guts to do it ourselves.

Since when does standing up for your national security, national interests and national sovereignty make you the evil empire? Since when is it smart to allow those committed to your annihilation free reign within your borders? How come, if you are a liberal, the only litmus for being serious about peace is surrendering to your enemy, giving up all national sovereignty and becoming a vassal state to a "culture" that has not only made overtures but has out right said that it would annihilate not only the country but your entire people?

How is it that the only proof of a commitment to peace is national suicide?  When will the other side be held to this same standard?  When all the Palestinians give up EVERYTHING  and KILL THEMSELVES then I will know THEY are serious about peace -- see how ridiculous this sounds when you turn the tables -- the NY Times would NEVER suggest such an asinine thing and yet they have no reservation in suggesting the Netanyahu go before his people and say -- "I am serious about peace with the Arab world; therefore since it is Passover, except this time instead of leaving Egypt, we are going to leave Israel and head south -- when we get to the Reed Sea, instead of asking

G-d to split it so we can cross on dry land we are all just going to drown ourselves because this will show all the liberals in the international community how serious we are about peace." 

This anti-Zionist attitude is used to cover up the naked anti-Semitism within liberalism. That so many American Jews buy into this sort of self-hatred is just disgusting.

Mission Statement

This website is a place for you and other like-minded Americans looking for direction in taking back the control of our country. It is also a place to find information that will assist you in navigating the rough waters we face in the days, weeks and months ahead.

We suggest that you start in your own homes.  Talk to your family about the Values and Principles.  Discuss the importance of what the Founders designed for America.

Hold or attend a weekly meeting in your neighborhood or town. Communication with your neighbors is vital to the process of protecting our country.  Gather in living rooms, coffee houses or restaurants.  Share your thoughts and ideas.

Visit this website often.  Make use of the resources that are linked here.  Share the ideas and resources that have worked in your home or town.

This is a non-political movement. The 9-12 Project is designed to bring us all back to the place we were on September 12, 2001. The day after America was attacked we were not obsessed with Red States, Blue States or political parties. We were united as Americans, standing together to protect the greatest nation ever created.

That same feeling – that commitment to country is what we are hoping to foster with this idea. We want to get everyone thinking like it is September 12th, 2001 again.

Ask yourself these questions:

• Do you watch the direction that America is being taken in and feel powerless to stop it?
• Do you believe that your voice isn’t loud enough to be heard above the noise anymore?
• Do you read the headlines everyday and feel an empty pit in your stomach…as if you’re completely alone?

If you’ve answered YES, then you’ve fallen for the Wizard of Oz lie. While the voices you hear in the distance may sound intimidating, as if they surround us from all sides—the reality is very different. Once you pull back the curtain,  you realize that there are only a few people pressing the buttons, and their voices are weak. The truth is that they don’t surround us at all.

We surround them.

At the origin of America, our Founding Fathers built this country on 28 powerful principles. These principles were culled from all over the world and from centuries of great thinkers. We have distilled the original 28 down to the 9 basic principles.

So, how do we show America what’s really behind the curtain? Read the nine simple principles. If you believe in at least seven of them, then we have something in common.

There are too many conservatives who are all too willing to grant what a liberal NEVER would were the roles reversed ... the benefit of the doubt and assuming good intent.  My issue with this is that in order to "give Obama a chance" requires conservatives to abandon their core principles ... and that is something I am just unwilling to do.

• I still believe in the sanctity of life and in order to give Obama a chance I would have to embrace "the freedom of choice act" which allows for partial birth abortion, repeals the need for parental consent for an abortion and denies babies born alive after a botched abortion the right to safety, warmth or life saving medical treatment. I believe in the holy state of marriage between 1 woman and 1 man who are of consenting age.  I do not believe that any group of people constitutes a family.  Marriage is the bedrock of society and is sanctified by God Almighty and we have no right or business in redefining it. 

• I still believe in the supremacy of our founding documents namely the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence.  I believe their words should be revered not revised and in order to give Obama a chance I would have to see them as "fundamentally flawed"

• I still believe in the Judeo-Christian values this great country was founded upon.  More over I will NEVER accept that Islam as it is practiced by those sworn to my destruction, the destruction of my friends and family, the destruction of the United States and of Israel has any place or value in Western Civilization; In order to give Obama a chance I would have to embrace Islam, a religion that allows jihad to fester within its rank and file.  Frankly, I see alot of jihadists and few if any Muslims speaking out against or doing anything about the tenet of jihad or the "radicals" that embrace it.  If you love me then show me ... show me that you will speak out that you will excommunicate anyone who teaches jihad or incites hatred in your ranks.  Turn them into the authorities do not allow them to befoul your religion or your mosques -- until you do that I am afraid there is nothing to say.

• I still believe in the power of the individual to better their own lives over collectivism, socialism or Marxism.  I believe in the supremacy of the family and community efforts to show compassion to those who are struggling.  In order to give Obama a chance I would have to overlook a myriad of bureaucratic government programs that enslave people forcing them into a cycle of poverty and dependence. 

• I still believe in the power of the free market to correct failing economies.  The strongest economies are not artificially bolstered by government intervention.  In order to give Obama a chance I would have to abandon the principles of free market economics for those of collectivism and social engineering.  

• I still believe that having a strong military is absolutely necessary to maintaining our national security and to protect our national interests within our sphere of influence.  In order to give Obama a chance I would have to abandon this belief in favor of community organizers and social workers.  I would have to accept that diplomacy and negotiation without pre-conditions with those sworn to our destruction is a policy worth pursuing.

• In order to give Obama a chance I would have to abandon my core belief that the only way to eliminate the threat of global jihad is to finally declare war on the sponsor of jihad.  The religion of peace as it has been dubbed is the religion of jihad of honor killings, of suicide bombers, of beheadings and various other forms of savagery.  It is a religion that officially calls for the destruction of all "infidels" (read: Christians and Jews) who unwilling to submit.  It is one of the chief global sponsors of Anti-Semitism.  Western Civilization hangs in the balance.  We must declare war on the religion that at its core embraces jihad because actions speak louder than words ... talk is cheap.  The jihadists are masters of propaganda but they prove their real intent by their actions ....their actions prove they are 100% committed to the death of every infidel and the destruction of all of Western Civilization in favor of a worldwide caliphate.

Yesterday, we heard more rhetoric in the form of an inaugural speech. From what I heard and no, I couldn’t stomach listening to him ramble aimlessly nor watch Michelle glowing in that hideous get up that was a cross between my grandmother’s living room drapes, her sofa and what appeared to be a life preserver left over from the Titanic … I have never dreamed of being in politics let alone President of the United States and yet after the speech that deflated and failed to uplift the spirit of the nation, I feel it is my duty to draft my own version ….

Counter Inaugural Speech 

My fellow Americans:

Today marks the transition of power in government. Today brings us to a cross roads of ideologies. I believe that the foundational documents of this great country should be revered and not revised. I believe in you the people of America, not government sponsored programs to end these difficult economic times. I know, in my heart of hearts, that it is the dedication, ingenuity and the Spirit of America that will inspire hope and change. 

I believe that there are dangerous enemies not only to America but to all of Western Civilization. We must not fool ourselves into pretending that they are our friends. Rather we must be prepared and have constant vigilance against any group who undermines the values of freedom and liberty. We must continue to be, as the late President Ronald Wilson Reagan said “A beacon on the hill” This does not mean that I will continue the fallacy of exporting democracy to countries who have no desire for it or the means to preserve the gifts given to them. It means that I will utilize our military and resources to further our national interests within our sphere of influence. Hear me now when I say that I will not seek nor counter any protest from the “international community” when it comes to defending this country, her citizens, her interests or her constitution from any enemy foreign or domestic. The oath I have taken just moments ago, I take seriously. It is a mantle I take on with great sobriety and purpose of heart. I hereby dedicate myself, my time and talents to that end. I ask for your prayers that I may have wisdom and clarity of mind as I undertake the duties of this great office and seek only to protect and defend this great and glorious land.

I recognize that the economy is on everyone’s mind these days. We have not been good stewards and now we are reaping what we have sewn. The best stimulus package is not drafted in a boardroom in Washington. The best economic stimulus is created when government gets out of the way and lets Americans get to work. It is my intention to cut across the board government spending by 12%, suspend income taxes for 3 months, decrease the capital gains tax, eliminate the “death tax” and renew the tax cuts initiated by President Bush. The strongest economies are not bolstered artificially. Times are tough at this moment, but this is but a moment and if we can discipline ourselves and avoid knee-jerk reactions we will come through this spectacularly. This is the time when we pull ourselves up, dust ourselves off and get to work. This is the time when sacrifices must be made. Some will work two or three jobs for a short time; others will be the employers. We must all work together and be united in purpose.

I have often been asked how can we help those who struggle, who simply don’t have the ability to help themselves? The answer to this is first family, next communities including religious institutions and finally government intervention. I have a plan for revamping the entire welfare system, a plan that will allow those in need to retain their dignity while getting the help they need and building work skills as they are able at the same time. Some will say it is impossible. I believe in the premise as Mr. Walt Disney did “It’s kinda fun to do the impossible!” More importantly, I have seen this system work worldwide successfully and I know that it will work here.

My fellow citizens, I beseech you to answer the clarion call. Be good neighbors to each other. Build up your communities. Lift each other. Where there is crime begin neighborhood watch programs. Be involved with your police departments and create communities that say loudly to criminals YOU ARE NOT WELCOME HERE. Where there is despair bring compassion, strengthen those who are struggling. Take a few hours each week to volunteer your time and talents and reach out to those in need. Parents, talk with your children not at them. Listen to their concerns. Share in their joys, counsel them in their quandaries and be swift to punish and curtail unacceptable behaviors; then just as swiftly show them an increase of love. Youth of America you are the promise of a great nation. Study hard in school, get involved in wholesome activities, be a part of your community. Stand strong against anything that degrades you as a person. Create a creed that you will live by. Make decisions now so you don’t have to in the heat of passion. Be prepared for at some point and I cannot possibly say when you will be called upon. The family is the foundation of society, as a nation we must protect and defend the family from anything that tears at that most vital fabric – the fabric of our communities and our nation.

We are a nation of many. We are diverse in many ways, however the one thing we have in common is that we are all Americans. Do not segregate yourself from your neighbors. Resist the urge to be a hyphenated American. Your heritage will always be a part of you, becoming an American is not subtracting anything just adding more to the greatness that is already there. Our families or perhaps even you may have come from across land and sea to this great land for opportunities, make the most of what this country has to offer; education, employment and communities that care. 

 This great land was founded on the principles of Christianity – principles that allow religious pluralism to flourish. Wherever you choose to worship or choose not to worship is a freedom granted to you by the framers of this government – a government that we should never forget is of the people, by the people and for the people. 

We have many challenges before us, and we will face those challenges with the grit of our ancestors; of the pilgrims and pioneers who have come before us. We will learn from the mistakes of the past and look with hope to the future. Our success as a nation depends on all of us being united in cause and purpose. Our success lies not in programs but in the perseverance of the American people. Americans are people see adversity as a challenge to overcome; people who see problems not as stumbling blocks but stepping stones. Together we will rise above the fray we will be strengthened in our resolve to leave for the next generation a stronger nation rooted in the best ideals of the past and committed to building a better tomorrow for everyone.

Again, I ask for your prayers; prayers for wisdom and commitment. Pray for your congress and senate that they will execute their duties faithfully and represent you not special interests. If they should fail to meet your expectations, tell them. If I fail to live up to your expectations, I want to know; I need to know so that I can do a better job. I believe in you. I recognize that you have placed your faith in me to lead you and this nation for the next 4 years. We have a lot to accomplish and little time to do it. I know that it is only through the help of God Almighty that this can be done. I humbly thank you for your faith in me. 

Thank you and God Bless America.

Constant vigilance!

Based On the Evidence of 1200 Years of Islamic History

Introduction:

FACT #1:

The goal of Islam is the subjugation of the entire world to Islam through the establishment of a global Islamic rule and the eradication of all non-Islamic populations, cultures, religions, thoughts, knowledge, symbols, traditions and ways of life.  This goal is non-negotiable in fundamental doctrines of Islam and in the eyes of true Muslims.

FACT #2:

Islamists will not stop their assault (open or clandestine) on the non-Muslim world as long as they have not achieved Islamic rule.

FACT #3:

IN ISLAMIC TEACHING, THE END ALWAYS JUSTIFIES THE MEANS: Islamists have no respect for the rules, laws or values of the non-Islamic world, to them only the rules of the Islamic world are legitimate. In their mind, when they destroy the non-Islamic world then the rules will change to Islamic rules, laws and values.

FACT #4:

ISLAMISTS CONSIDER TREATIES WITH NON-MUSLIMS AS NON-BINDING. When in non-Muslim countries they will pretend a social behavior as a cover up to their true intentions of domination over the non Muslim world.

TIP: When it comes to Islamists, ALWAYS LOOK AT WHAT THEY DO, NEVER WHAT THEY SAY: Lying, treachery and deceit are the Islamists' tactic of choice in their jihad of conquest of the non-Muslim world. This tactic (AL-TAQIYYA, or religious deception, pretending to be friends of the Non-Muslims in order to strengthen themselves against them) is a commonly practiced by Islamists. DECEPTION IS THE KEY TACTIC EMPLOYED BY ISLAMISTS.

FACT #5:

As a rule of thumb to get the truth from any Islamist, simply reverse what they say to a non-Muslim.

FACT #6:

The founder of Islam, MUHAMMAD WAS AN ISLAMIST.  Whether you able to face or ignore this harsh reality is beside the point, you will inevitably face its truth on the day you find yourself within the killing zone of Islamists.

Observations from Half a World Away

Kimberly Phillips     Salt Lake City, Utah USA

As I sit here half a world away from my friends in Israel, my heart goes out to those who have been living under the constant threat of terrorist attacks, in spite of and sometimes because of political brokering. Today, we live in a world that extols the values of political correctness and moral relativism/equivalency.   It is stylish and vogue to be spiritual but not religious and to say that every religion, creed and belief has equal value; that there is no black and white just shades of gray and that good and evil are terms of a bygone era; an era where racism and prejudice ruled and when people were ‘just plain mean’.  These are the lofty ideals of the globalist liberals within the "international community" these are the ideals which have forced Israel into making concession after concession to a people who have absolutely no interest in real and lasting peace. 

For decades Yasser Arafat imported his hatred. The PLO gave birth to the terror infrastructure of today. For reasons that escape me every president in recent memory has made it part of their legacy to broker a peace agreement in the Middle East. The terrorists have no better friend that President Carter who extols their virtues. The Camp David Accords were a raw deal for Israel but gained President Carter Nobel Peace prize. Reagan refused to abandon his Middle East Plan although Prime Minister Begin described it as ‘the saddest day in history’ that Israel alone was left out of the negotiations. President George H.W. Bush continued on Reagan’s path. Then on the heels of the Bush 41 administration came the second intifada. President Clinton helped to polish his foreign policy image with the UN by pushing through the Oslo Accords to the utter detriment Israel.   George W. Bush revised the Oslo Accords and started with his Road Map to Peace and the Annapolis Convention both of which forced Israel to make even more concessions and gain absolutely nothing from the Palestinian side.

 Once the Palestinian people elected Hamas as the governing power in Gaza it should have been obvious to the world what their intention was. The only peace that the Palestinian people are interested in is a peace that destroys the Jewish nation both physically and spiritually. Certainly there have been "lulls" in the violence or "times of quiet" so to speak, but for anyone who is truly paying attention to the situation these are periods of time used by terrorists to import and stock up arms and recruit for their cause. 

Since the formation of the modern state of Israel, the world has forced Israel into idiotic "land for peace" deals. The people of Israel continue to provide infrastructure (power, water, sewage treatment and first class medical care) to people sworn to their annihilation. The people of Israel have been forced into freeing known terrorists they have captured and are holding in prisons; people who the moment they were freed have gone back to planning attacks not on military installations but targeting schools, busses, synagogues, shopping centers, restaurants and hotels; places where they can inflict the most civilian casualties. The terrorists prey on the worst fears of people forcing them to wonder if the next time they get on a bus to go shopping or dropping a child at school if they will ever see them again – surely this is the definition of a living hell. 

The Jews are a hearty people. They are made of stronger stuff than the terrorists. They are living in the land promised to them for 5000+ years. They are resilient and will overcome the enemy within and the enemy from without. The enemy within are the liberals who consistently protest "the settlers" and call for concession after concession all in the name of an elusive peace; but it is the peace of pipe dreams. They have deluded themselves into believing if they side with the enemy that they will be protected. This, of course, is a lie. Terrorists don't care if you are on their side or not; you are an infidel and unless you submit by the sword to Islam you must be killed. The existential enemies on the outside are those who insist that Israel’s response to violence and terrorism is measured, restrained and proportional. They are the hypocrites who call for Israel’s citizens to put up with circumstances that which they never ask their own to endure.

I have many friends who watch media outlets such as CNN, MSNBC, BBC and other networks for their news on the Middle East. The feeds that are broadcast by these media outlets are leftist and Anti-Semitic. The vitriol against Israel for protecting their citizens and sovereign territory is nothing short of shocking. I often have to explain the unilateral disengagement from Gaza to them. Prior to the disengagement the Gaza Strip was the home to greater than 70% of the produce grown in Israel.  The people of Gush Katif had found methods to make the desert bloom literally and figuratively.

The Jews of Gush Katif were forcefully and violently ejected from the homes and jobs that they had built up for over 30 years; all in the name of peace. Those of us who have been paying attention knew that in only a matter of months what had been a hub of production and community building would now be destroyed and turned into a launching ground and training camp for terrorist activity and we were right. To this day, there are people from Gush Katif continuing to live in trailers and who are unemployed even though they were promised permanent homes and jobs by their government.

In 2006, terrorists operating under the Iranian and Syrian backed Hezbollah movement kidnapped Israeli soldiers and attacked Israel from the country of Lebanon. The world cried for restraint. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice again brokered deals through the UN that essentially tied the hands of Israel.    People of northern Israel were living in bomb shelters and yet where was the cry for humanitarian aid for them? There was a deafening silence from the "international community" for their suffering. Yet the Lebanese people got 24/7 coverage and in some cases, for political expediency, news agencies even doctored photos to make it appear that Israel targeted civilian centers so that charges of war crimes would be levied against Israel yet again. Tunnels used to smuggle weapons from Egypt into Gaza were never shut down. In fact, the only people who have followed the UN resolution are the Israelis. The terrorists laugh at the toothless resolutions of the UN. The UNIFIL peacekeeping troops are little more than mercenaries on the payroll of Hezbollah hence the terrorists are as well or perhaps even better armed than they were prior to 2006.

Finally, after years of bombardment by rockets and missiles from Gaza into Sedrot and Ashkelon, the Israeli government has taken decisive action. Diplomacy, negotiation and patience brought only more attacks.  It was decided that a military operation against the terrorist infrastructure in Gaza was the ONLY option left to Israel and the air strikes began yesterday. The headlines scream of more than 200 people killed in strikes. They also make sure to tell you that civilians were killed in the strikes and some of them children. While it is true that some civilians will undoubtedly be among casualties of ANY war, what the media FAILS to mention is that these civilians are living within the proximity of Hamas controlled terrorist compounds and are more than likely willing "human shields" for the jihad against Israel. There is a twisted mindset within jihad that somehow justifies the use of civilians including children – a mindset that praises martyrdom over life.

Regardless of how targeted any attacks are by Israel they will be castigated by the "international community". It is a given. There will be calls for sanctions against Israel for human rights violations because of idiotic things such as closing crossings into Israel and enforced curfews.

I would ask any who rail against border crossings being closed if they would build a house without any doors on it. I would ask those who cry about long lines and the inconveniences of profiling induced car and body searches if they would allow people with bombs to drive through their neighborhood. It's pretty darn inconvenient to be killed; and it's pretty darn inconvenient to end up an orphan because your parents were shot by terrorist snipers on the highway. 

When you have Arab members of Knesset (Israeli Parliament) inciting those they represent into the killing of Jewish civilians I would say 'game on' to whatever the Jewish people have to do to protect their own. It is about time the Israeli Arabs decide where their loyalties lie – they seem to want all the perks of being an Israeli citizen – the safety of police and military protection, homes, jobs and infrastructure all the while plotting against the very people who give it to them. They have a representative voice in the government and yet they choose to openly use this voice not to create a peaceful and productive environment where both people can live in harmony but to incite and whip into frenzy those who sympathize with the jihad. 

There are those misguided 'peace activists' who call for a Palestinian state within Israel. I call to your attention that if the Jewish settlers are evicted from Judea and Samaria (aka 'the west bank’)as the Road Map to Peace calls for that Israel will have exactly 10 miles between Gaza and the proposed Palestinian state. This creates indefensible borders for Israel between hostile parties. This is tantamount to suicide. There are 50+ Islamic majority countries in the world and 1 Jewish nation, a nation that is approximately the size of New Jersey. This is land that has had a Jewish presence since the literal beginning of time. The Jews were forcibly evicted from every Muslim nation regardless of how long their families had been on the land; where is the cry for their 'right of return'? There is a land dedicated for the Palestinians, it is a country known as Jordan. Jordan and for that matter no Muslim nation, want to accept the Palestinian people because they whip up trouble wherever they settle. Ultimately, it is easier to support a war between the Palestinians and the Israelis than to accept responsibility for their own. 

There is one nation from the border of Jordan to the Mediterranean Sea – Israel – and long may she live. I pray for peace in our time. I fear though that until Israel becomes a not only a state but a Jewish State this will not happen. So long as they allow those committed to their annihilation to live within their borders there will be terror. As long as the secular Israelis in fight against the Religious Nationalists and evict settlers from their land brokering false peace against their own there will be bloodshed.

As an American and a Christian I stand with the Jewish Nation of Israel. I stand with the settlers of Judea and Samaria. I stand with the Jews fighting for the right to live in Hebron; I stand against terrorism. I stand with my friends fighting the war on terror wherever that front is … from the IDF fighting in Gaza to the US forces in Iraq and Afghanistan; and from the fronts that have yet to be named such as Darfur and India – whoever stands against the Islamic Jihad has a friend in me. 

As I finally close I recall the words of a favorite song in my hymnal:

Redeemer of Israel

1. Redeemer of Israel,

Our only delight,

On whom for a blessing we call,

Our shadow by day

And our pillar by night,

Our King, our Deliv'rer, our all!

2. We know he is coming

To gather his sheep

And lead them to Zion in love,

For why in the valley

Of death should they weep

Or in the lone wilderness rove?

3. How long we have wandered

As strangers in sin

And cried in the desert for thee!

Our foes have rejoiced

When our sorrows they've seen,

But Israel will shortly be free.

4. As children of Zion,

Good tidings for us.

The tokens already appear.

Fear not, and be just,

For the kingdom is ours.

The hour of redemption is near.

Text: William W. Phelps, 1792–1872; adapted from Joseph Swain, 1761–1796. Included in the first LDS hymnbook, 1835. Music: Freeman Lewis, 1780–1859 Exodus 13:21–22

To those who speak against Israel I pity you. It is written in Genesis 12 that those who bless Israel will be blessed and those who curse Israel will be cursed. G-d is patient, but his patience for those who persecute his people is wearing thin. To the governments who force Israel into concessions I would warn you that you are bringing untold hardships upon your people; that will rest squarely upon your shoulders should you persist in these actions.

To those who call for mercy upon the terrorists I remind you of the Talmudic injunction:                        

"He who is merciful to the evil, in turn does evil to the merciful".

We must vindicate every life torn asunder by terrorism. Justice must be served. Justice isn't fairness. Justice is a swift and strong response. Terrorist actions must be met with a ferocity that has been hidden until now.   There is no room for a "proportional" response. The message must be clear …. For every rocket there will be air strikes, for every sniper shooting, car bomb, suicide attack will be met with death and destruction.  We will no longer tolerate strikes against us. Your ideology is not welcome in our country or the civilized world; we will strike you wherever you are and wherever it rears its ugly head we will strike with a death blow. A line has been drawn in the sand; you are with  G-d or with the world. The world calls for moral equivalency while G-d calls for intellectual honesty and moral clarity. Make no mistake about it; the last days before the Messiah are upon us. Ask yourself what your motives are.   Ask yourself whose side are you on?
