If the United States is so bad, you can always leave
I just found this video linked from The Drudge Report. The man in the video is a high school history teacher addressing a La Raza rally. During his speech, he talks about “racist white people,” refers to America as the “belly of the beast,” and calls California “stolen, occupied Mexico”. As you will see, he also talks about the fight against capitalism and imperialism.
While watching this video, one question kept coming to mind: Why doesn’t he leave the United States and move to Mexico? If the United States is so evil, then leave here and go to a place that is more to your liking. In the video, he mentions his hero Hugo Chavez. Venezuela sounds like it would be a great choice, especially if you don’t mind the inflation rate of more than 30%. » read more

Obamacare: Illegal aliens won’t receive health care…yet
Have you read the 3,000 page health care bill yet? I haven’t read the entire thing, but I have read a portion of the bill. I’m glad to say that Obamacare will not allow illegal aliens to receive health care or purchase insurance through exchanges. Of course, the fight isn’t over.
The next step is to keep our eyes on the immigration reform bill. Obamacare won’t provide health insurance for illegal aliens, but it will provide help for legal immigrants. If the 12 million to 20 million illegal aliens in the United States receive amnesty, won’t that make them legal? Won’t they then be eligible for subsidized health care? It certainly looks that way to me. » read more

Is Mike Huckabee really a conservative who believes in small government?
Mike Huckabee seems a bit confused. In a recent speech, he discussed the future of the Republican party, and he had this to say:
“One of the things that concerns me is that in the United States there is real talk of maybe we need to have this big tent and accommodate every view,” Huckabee said. “That will kill the conservative movement.”
I’m not sure if Mike Huckabee realizes it or not, but the United States only has two major parties. When you have only two parties, you should have a “big tent” to accomodate a broad cross section of the country. If not, your party will get decimated in elections. Of course, if Mike Huckabee really believes in having total agreement on a wide variety of social and fiscal issues, it might lead the GOP to become a powerhouse…among second tier parties. That’s right, it will probably be able to dominate the Libertarian, Green, and Socialist parties in elections. Sure, the Democratic Party will continue to pick up seats at a rapid pace, but at least the dwindling membership of the GOP will be homogenous and won’t have to put up with dissenting voices. You know, those pesky people who contribute to a lively debate. » read more
