This is one of the best critiques of the Republican candidates I have seen. He has obviously put a lot of thought into this. Bob is actually the kind of person we need in office. Someone with the sense to know what is wrong. Not someone that tells us what they think we want to hear.
Why will this be the November 3, 2012 Headlines?
The Republican Party and the American people didn't learn a thing from the 2008 Presidential Election. The Republican Elite which are true RINOs(Republican in Name Only) are more interested in the the party status and power in Washington than the American people. If that were not the case John McCain would never have been nominated. The majority of Republican voters are conservative and don't want a RINO in the White House. As the Media tries to pick the Republican Nominee the American people blindly listen to the mainstream media projecting who they want to run against their boy Obama, twelve months from the Republican Convention. The Republican Elite go right along with them so as not to rock the boat and keep the status quo in Washington. The American people are not stupid, but they are uneducated about the Republic (we are not a democracy) and the founders philosophy. This is thanks to thirty years of Government controlled schools and teachers union influence. Without a knowledge of our founding, our government and the relationship of our founding to gospel doctrine the average person cannot make an educated decision on how to vote. That being said most Conservatives are more educated than the average person and the Republican Party Elite is alienating the the 40% of the population that is conservative and the Conservative Christian Vote. If the Republican Party does not put the people first they will end up with another John McCain candidate. A non-conservative neochristian which will ensure the re-election of Barack Hussein Obama. Why can't Media sponsored candidates can't beat Barack Hussein Obama?
Herman Cain currently leads in the polls, but he is unelectable. You ask why. Herman Cain cannot beat Barack Hussein Obama because,
1. He's black, no black man will beat Obama especially without the Conservative Christian Vote .
2. He's not conservative enough. His 9-9-9 plan sounds great, but when you run the numbers most Americans taxes will go up. The consumption tax is a great idea, the flat tax is a great idea, but 9-9-9 will destroy America with out first totally eliminating the Income tax and the IRS. As long as we do not have a balance budget amendment the liberals and socialist in congress will continue to spend more than we have and the US will continue to decline. An independent analysis of his tax plan, released Tuesday, concluded otherwise. The Tax Policy Center, a Washington think tank, said Cain’s plan would increase taxes on 84 percent of U.S. households, hitting low- and medium- income households the hardest. The analysis said that households making $10,000 to $20,000 would see whopping tax increases averaging $2,705 – an increase of nearly 950 percent.
3. Cain is a Federalist, in the last debate the former Federal Reserve insider Herman Cain brazenly lied during the Republican debate when
he denied that he had opposed an audit of the Fed, a claim that was proved false within hours by Ron Paul’s campaign team.
4. He is not knowledgeable on Gun Rights and The Second Amendment. His position is Gun Control is a States Right issue. Gun owners trust his position on Gun Control?
5. Herman Cain has no real political experience.
Mitt Romney, It should be obvious why Mitt Romney is unelectable.
1. He's a Liberal, he's so liberal it's hard to classify him as a RINO rather than a Democrat
2. He's Anti-Gun , Pro Gun Control.
3. He's Pro Socialized Medicine, Author of Romney Care. Romney does not want to repeal Obama Care. Obama Care is bases on Romney Care and was developed with input and support of Romney aids and Jonathan Gruper, Romney's aid and confidant for Romney Care.
4. He's a Mormon, that is not a bad thing, but the Liberal Media has demonized the Mormon faith to where having a Muslim President would be better in many peoples eyes. Perception become reality in politics.
5. He believes in Man Made Global Warming
6 He is in favor of Amnesty for illegals yet he gives Perry a trashing on Immigration. He is a hypocrite. In the Oct 19 debate the most ` important part of the exchange between Romney and Perry on illegal Immigration, Romney said" You can't have illegal’s working on our property; I'm running for office, for Pete's sake I can't have illegal’s." The issue was how it would look for Romney, not the fact that he had Illegals working for him.
Rick Perry is the longest serving Texan Governor in history. He has made a number of controversial decisions that could undermine his ability to beat Barack Hussein Obama. He has changed his position on a number of issues in the past few years to become a dogmatic nationalist and a social and fiscal conservative and a big States Rights supporter. His hard stance on several explosive issues, such as abortion, firearms, same-sex marriages and capital punishment provokes a reaction outside of the conservative circles. Honest to a fault and admits his mistakes.
The question is will he stay that way in the White House.
1. The media hates him because he a Christian Conservative and he's from Texas.
2. His position on funding for illegal immigrant Education has conservatives split on Perry. The fact is that the Texas law says if you have been a resident of Texas for two years you qualify for in-state tuition. The law does not require proof of citizenship.(see below)
3. His poor performance in the debate format may be his undoing
Ron Paul Who the Hell is Ron Paul? The most ignored Candidate in history. The only true Constitutionalist running for President and he makes no apologies for it. Ron Paul has been cast in the role of the misfit, the eccentric and the unelectable; securely kept within the fringes of the Republican Party. The mainstream media shuns him and ignores his poll numbers. He believes in small governments, non- expansionist foreign policy, gold-backed currency, personal liberty and abolishing federal income taxes. He holds the most conservative voting record in Congress and he is also the biggest advocate for the dismantling of the Federal Reserve. We is the only candidate that would follow the Constitution to the letter. Has the "Restore America Plan" to balance the Federal Leviathan's budget in just 3 years and pay down the Debt.
His following is force to be reckoned with and will likely decide if the republicans win or loose the White House in 2012.
1. Paul first ran for president as a Libertarian.
2. His policies scare a lot of the Washington Elite and the Liberal Media.
3. He has some controversial positions the media exploits on a public ignorant of the Constitution.
4. He is considered the Godfather of the Tea Party.
5. He isn't physically attractive enough for some voters.
6. His isolationist position and position on bringing our troops home scares many people.
7. His plan to Balance the Budget in three years and pay down the national debt scares the poverty pimps and unions.
Michele Bachmann She is also smart, attractive, and telegenic. She’s got charisma, as well as sharp eyes and ears for the issues on which she can separate herself and the biting examples/phrases that will get her points across. Even with the support of the Tea Party it will be a tough Race.
1. She does have the support of Republican Elite.
2. There are some who are not ready for a woman in the White House particularly some of the Evangelical Christian and Muslims.
3. She has made some serious gaffes and misspeaks that the liberals and media will capitalize on and run into the ground.
4. The media and democrats are afraid of her and will savagely go after her as they did Sarah Palin.
Newt Gingrich Newt is a great intellectual thinker and historian. Author of the Contract with America. he is a great speaker and has a lot of great ideas, but he is un-electable in a presidential race.
1. Newt has a lot of personal baggage that will be drug out in a national race.
2. The Republican Elite are not behind him.
3. His commentary though correct is often divisive.
4. He is not a leader. He says the right things, but he does not lead men. This is evident by the troubles he has had keeping his campaign team together.
5. He caved and made deals with Bill Clinton that betrayed his conservative followers when he was House Speaker.
6. He believes in Man Made Global Warming.
7. He is pro-Amnesty for Illegal Immigrants
8. He resigned from congress amid ethics violations.
Jon Huntsman is unelectable as a Republican. Someone screwed up letting him in the party. He a personal friend of Barack Hussein Obama.
1. A former Mormon missionary , the Media will have field day with this.
2. High school dropout (he obtained his G.E.D a few years later).
3. RINO
4. He believes in Man Made Global Warming
IN CLOSING
Don't get me wrong. I think Ron Paul, Rick Perry or Michele Bachmann would be a huge improvement over Barack Hussein Obama. Personally I would vote for Mickey Mouse, the Tooth Fairy or maybe even the Devil Himself, over Barack Hussein Obama. At least we would know what we were voting for then. Republicans have to quit fighting amongst themselves. As Hank Williams Jr. said, Barack Hussein Obama is the enemy in this fight, not fellow Republicans. The Republican Candidates who have no chance of winning need to drop out of the race and the Republican Party needs to decide if its more conservative or more socialist. Ignore the damn media, quit the games, the life blood of our republic is at stake. This country is bankrupt. The world is at war. People are in the streets calling for violent revolution and the President and Democratic Leadership are encouraging them, saying they are behind them. Our borders are open to anyone. Forty-seven million Americans are on welfare. Forty-nine percent of American households pay no income tax. The federal government borrows $58,000 every second. Our economy is a shell game that will fail if it is not stopped soon. This is not the America I grew up in. This is not the America I expect my grandchildren to grow up in. We must return to our core beliefs, our founding and our God. If you do not fight in the realm of political ideas now, you doom your children to fighting in the streets.

JPFO responds to Jewish Democrat group’s twisted accusation.
Our Friends at JPFO are on the ball.
by Rabbi Dovid Bendory, Rabbinic Director,
Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership.
Copyright 2011 JPFO
Rabbi Bendory
The National Jewish Democratic Council has gratuitously attacked JPFO in a blog posting. Here’s their attack:
(Portions of the NJDC commentary are presented below and are followed by comments from JPFO’s Rabbinic Director.)
NJDC Denounces Depiction of Eric Holder in Nazi Uniform
NJDC — October 12, 2011 – 11:17 am
"The National Jewish Democratic Council denounces the photo shopped images of Attorney General Eric Holder as a Nazi and former Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives head Ken Melson as Nuremberg defendant as posted by Mike Vanderboegh—a right wing blogger who has appeared recently on Fox News and was honored in September by Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership (JPFO)."
"Unfortunately, after allowing individuals such as Glenn Beck and Hank Williams, Jr. to use Holocaust rhetoric during their appearances on the air, it is unlikely that Fox News will do the right thing and repudiate Vanderboegh. Indeed, Fox News’ own chief executive compared NPR executives to the Nazis and lashed out at those criticizing the network for allowing such behavior to take place.
That leaves JPFO—a Jewish group that recently awarded Vanderboegh — to act responsibly and make it clear that his behavior is unacceptable."
[The full article can be found here.]http://www.njdc.org/blog/post/fnc101211
JPFO’s response:
The NJDC has orchestrated a blatant distraction.
The National Jewish Democratic Council, along with every other left wing anti-gun group, is desperately trying to distract Americans from the felonious scandal known as the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives’ (BATFE’s) "Fast and Furious".
Note that the NJDC does not mention why JPFO gave the "David and Goliath Award" to Vanderboegh (and his associate David Codrea). The fact is that Vanderboegh and Codrea unearthed an international political and law enforcement scandal that makes Watergate look like school yard hijinks. [Learn more about the award.]
The NJDC insinuates that JPFO is somehow involved with the satirical images that it (NJDC) finds distasteful … or that we even presented an award for the satire. In fact, the award we presented -- which predates the satire in question -- was for exposing a scandal far darker than any satire anyone could possibly create with photoshop.
For the record, Vanderboegh described in historical detail the reason for his satirical images. Any Holocaust connection is a ludicrous stretch:
http://sipseystreetirregulars.blogspot.com/2011/10/editors-note-correction-and-apology.html
Eric Holder is covering up "Fast and Furious" and he will perhaps be tossed under the bus by his Superior. Vanderboegh likens Holder’s dilemma to Hitler’s orders to Nazi General von Paulus at Stalingrad to fight down to the last man. Vanderboegh compared Eric Holder’s hopeless situation to that of a general in a suicidal battle. This is "Holocaust rhetoric"?
Or perhaps the comparison has its merits? Holder’s final fate will likely have much to do with what he has on his boss. After all, a finger pointed at the Oval Office might keep Holder out of jail. Could it be that -- in Vanderboegh’s words -- Eric Holder has been sent on a suicide mission, having been "assigned by Barack Obama to defend the DOJ kessel of the Gunwalker Plot Cover-up to the last man"?
Vanderboegh then compared ex-BATFE Acting Director Kenneth Melson (he finally got "reassigned", we should remember) to a defendant in a war crimes tribunal. Might this comparison also be appropriate? Maybe the National Jewish Democratic Council should ask the Attorney General of Mexico -- or the families of any of the victims murdered by drug runners armed by the BATFE in Fast and Furious -- if they would like to see charges filed against Melson or Holder?
Could it be that NJDC simply doesn’t want America to pay attention to what happened in Fast and Furious? Or to what this grotesque operation says about the Obama administration?
Someone very high up gave the order to launch "Fast and Furious". If Holder knew about it, his order was criminal; if he didn’t, he was criminally negligent in his oversight of BATFE (or of his own DOJ, if the orders originated there). Instead of attacking Vanderboegh for his satire or attempting to besmirch JPFO for awarding Vanderboegh’s history making journalism, why doesn’t the NJDC go after the truth in "Fast and Furious"?
We at JPFO emphatically stand by our award to Mike Vanderboegh and David Codrea, and furthermore we hope that both these freedom loving Americans will someday be considered for Pulitzer Prizes for their outstanding investigative work.
We are repulsed by the orchestrated distraction and moral corruption demonstrated by those who support the Obama Administration and its perverse ethics in this matter.
"Fast and Furious" functioned as an evidence planting scheme that would support the Obama administration’s lies regarding the supply of American guns to the Mexican drug cartels.
The lie seemed to be working as the BATFE knowingly planted thousands of guns in the hands of the murderous cartels. As could be expected, those guns surfaced in crime scenes that involved the murders of hundreds of innocents. Were it not for patriots like Mike Vanderboegh, David Codrea, and a small and courageous group of honest BATFE agents (who broke the story to Vanderboegh) this administration would still embrace the evil and bloody manipulations of "Fast and Furious".
I beseech American Jews to distance themselves from organizations like NJDC that support the "Fast and Furious" regime. Visit the web site of Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership (www.jpfo.org). Educate yourselves about the BATFE. And then wake up!
Blessings and Shalom,

Gun control lies that just won't die
The tragic shooting in Nevada at the IHOP has got the anti-gun crowd pulling out all of the standard lies about guns and gun owners. One of the biggest lies they tell is that gun owners are walking around with "assault" weapons. A assault weapon is defined as a lightweight, shoulder fired, select-fire weapon. The rifles that civilians own are not select fire, they are semi-auto only. Big difference.
http://www.rgj.com/article/20111025/NEWS/110230362/1002
Lie #1."There's no reason for an AK-47 or an M-16 or an M-4 to be in a civilian's home."
There aren't. These are true assault weapons and are highly regulated. If you wanted to own one of these, you have to go through a extensive background check and pay the government a $200.00 tax. These weapons can cost $10,000.00 or more. Not something that someone would use in a crime.
Lie #2.Semi-automatic assault weapons can easily be converted into automatic weapons -- which are the same thing as machine guns -- with a simple kit available online or at gun shows, officials said.
Nope. The parts that can convert a semi-auto to full-auto are as heavily regulated as the rifles they are installed in. I have never seen a "kit" at a gun show or online. And I have looked. This lie has been around for years.
Lie #3."There are almost no positive laws in Nevada to keep guns away from dangerous people,"
Dangerous people are usually felons. It is against federal law for a felon to possess any kind of firearm. What good is any law if the miscreant is going to ignore it any way. Only the law abiding obey the law. Sad fact that these anti's have never learned.
Lie #4 the current system for federally registering machine guns is problematic because federal law prohibits the ATF from telling local law enforcement who has the guns.
Technically, this is both a lie and the truth. The ATF does not inform the locals about the sale of class 3 weapons. The purchaser, when filling out the forms has to forward a copy to the local chief law enforcement officer for the area, whether it's the Chief of Police or the Sheriff. So the truth is, they know who owns the true assault weapons.
There are some other half truth spread out through the article. I like the way they brought up the Tucson shooting. The sheriff knew the shooter was a nut job, but because his family were friends and supporters, he didn't do anything. If the sheriff had done his job, the shooter would not have been able to legally purchase a gun.
The anti's never have anything but emotion and fear. Their idea is to mislead the public. If they can make people think that these are "machineguns", so much the better. And the press has been a willing accomplice. There are a lot of other "facts" they conveniently leave out of their screeds, the fact that guns are used defensively over 2 million times a year. A lot of times without firing a shot.
Nevada National Guard Sgt. Caitlin Kelley, one of the victims in the IHOP attack, thinks there should be a ban. Even though she took a oath to uphold and defend the Constitution. I guess even the people in the Military can decide what rights they want to trample.

Two Iowa mayors want you left at the mercy of the government and other thugs.
The group mayors against illegal guns (MAIG) ran a full page ad in USA Today predicting more doom and gloom.
http://mayorsagainstillegalguns.org/downloads/pdf/usa-today-10-20.pdf
In the signatures at the bottom are 2 Iowa Mayors. Mayor Cownie of Des Moines and Mayor William Gluba of Davenport.
Why are 2 of Iowa's mayors even involved in a rabidly anti-gun bunch of fools headed by Michael Bloomberg. Bloomberg claims their group is against illegal guns. The truth is, they are against guns for anyone except law enforcement and military. Now they are railing against a bill that would allow law abiding citizens the right to carry in all states that have a permit system. The only state without such a system is Illinois.
HR822 would Make our carry permits like drivers licences in a way. That means that someone with a Iowa permit would be allowed to carry in any state. With the one exception noted above. Of course Bloomberg and all the other anti-gun loons are predicting doom and gloom. More of the "blood in the streets" lies that are all they know. Representative Carolyn Malone of New York had this to say:
this travesty of a bill would make it legal for a known terrorist or child molester in Arizona to obtain a permit to carry a concealed weapon, buy a large-caliber gun and all the cop-killer bullets he could get his hands on, tuck them into his trenchcoat, and take a little trip to NYC -- maybe right to the middle of Times Square or down to Ground Zero.
It's hard to believe that in this day and age anyone could be that stupid. And this person is a US Representative? This is the anti-gun mind set. If you are a law abiding citizen, as soon as you get a permit and a handgun, you will become a raving lunatic looking for someone to shoot. Of course the truth is that permit holders tend to be more law abiding than normal. We know that the carrying of a weapon is a very large responsibility and we do not take it lightly. In all of the years I have been around, I have never seen a shoot out over a fender bender or parking space.
The bad news for our mayors is the new shall issue law that went into effect last January 1st. According to the new law, Iowa accepts a legal carry permit from any state. So as far as Iowa and a few other states are concerned, HR822 is not going to change anything. We already honor everyone permits.
We, the legal permit holders of Iowa need to take these two to task. The should resign from this organization and put as much distance between them and Bloomy as possible. Remember that this organization has some really fine members.
http://robertsgunshop.blogspot.com/2011/07/mayors-against-illegal-guns-are-such.html
There are several ways to contact Mayor Cownie. E-mail fcownie@dmgov.org
City Hall Phone: (515) 283-4944
Home Phone: (515) 255-3644
For mayor Gluba, mayorgluba@ci.davenport.ia.us 563-326-7701
Send them e-mails and call them on the phone. Respectfully ask them to resign from MAIG.
This is the e-mail I have sent to Mayor Cownie. Feel free to use any or all of it.
I have just learned that in Iowa, 2 Mayors have signed the MAIG full page ad in USA Today opposing the passage of HR 822. Something that may have slipped each of your minds when you signed this ad is the fact that here in Iowa, Shall issue passed and was signed by the Governor. This means that as of last January 1st, Iowa now accepts as valid ANY Concealed Handgun Permit or the equivalent issued by any state in the union. This means that as of last January 1st, Iowa adopted precisely the rules that HR822 will bring to the rest of the Union.
Maybe both of you mayors should seriously consider leaving MAIG. It is clear that Mike Bloomberg has no interest in telling you the truth about the laws. Would you have signed this ad if you knew that the principal that 822 supports is already signed into law here in Ia?
This action by you and your organization makes it clear that even though you call yourselves Mayors Against Illegal Guns, you are just another anti-gun organization. The guns carried by Ia. PCW holders, and by the holders of the equivalent out of state permits are, by definition, not illegal. They are guns carried by the most law abiding people in the world. Not a single state will issue a CHP or the equivalent to a felon, a domestic abuser, a drug addict, or a mental incompetent. By your actions you prove that you don't really care about Illegal guns. You are opposed to all guns and to all gun owners.
Respectfully,
Robert A. Fowler

this travesty of a bill would make it legal for a known terrorist or child molester in Arizona to obtain a permit to carry a concealed weapon, buy a large-caliber gun and all the cop-killer bullets he could get his hands on, tuck them into his trenchcoat, and take a little trip to NYC -- maybe right to the middle of Times Square or down to Ground Zero.
It's hard to believe that in this day and age anyone could be that stupid. And this person is a US Representative? This is the anti-gun mind set. If you are a law abiding citizen, as soon as you get a permit and a handgun, you will become a raving lunatic looking for someone to shoot. Of course the truth is that permit holders tend to be more law abiding than normal. We know that the carrying of a weapon is a very large responsibility and we do not take it lightly. In all of the years I have been around, I have never seen a shoot out over a fender bender or parking space.
The bad news for our mayors is the new shall issue law that went into effect last January 1st. According to the new law, Iowa accepts a legal carry permit from any state. So as far as Iowa and a few other states are concerned, HR822 is not going to change anything. We already honor everyone permits.
We, the legal permit holders of Iowa need to take these two to task. The should resign from this organization and put as much distance between them and Bloomy as possible. Remember that this organization has some really fine members.

There are several ways to contact Mayor Cownie. E-mail fcownie@dmgov.org
City Hall Phone: (515) 283-4944
Home Phone: (515) 255-3644
For mayor Gluba, mayorgluba@ci.davenport.ia.us 563-326-7701
Send them e-mails and call them on the phone. Respectfully ask them to resign from MAIG.
This is the e-mail I have sent to Mayor Cownie. Feel free to use any or all of it.
I have just learned that in Iowa, 2 Mayors have signed the MAIG full page ad in USA Today opposing the passage of HR 822. Something that may have slipped each of your minds when you signed this ad is the fact that here in Iowa, Shall issue passed and was signed by the Governor. This means that as of last January 1st, Iowa now accepts as valid ANY Concealed Handgun Permit or the equivalent issued by any state in the union. This means that as of last January 1st, Iowa adopted precisely the rules that HR822 will bring to the rest of the Union.
Maybe both of you mayors should seriously consider leaving MAIG. It is clear that Mike Bloomberg has no interest in telling you the truth about the laws. Would you have signed this ad if you knew that the principal that 822 supports is already signed into law here in Ia?
This action by you and your organization makes it clear that even though you call yourselves Mayors Against Illegal Guns, you are just another anti-gun organization. The guns carried by Ia. PCW holders, and by the holders of the equivalent out of state permits are, by definition, not illegal. They are guns carried by the most law abiding people in the world. Not a single state will issue a CHP or the equivalent to a felon, a domestic abuser, a drug addict, or a mental incompetent. By your actions you prove that you don't really care about Illegal guns. You are opposed to all guns and to all gun owners.
Respectfully,
Robert A. Fowler
