1934 Chicago Trib Cartoon - Fits for today

Has anyone seen this cartoon from the 1934 Chicago Tribune? Could anyone come up with a more fitting description of what is going on today?

The man in the street is writing a "Plan of Action for the U.S. "Spend, Spend, Spend under the guise of recovery - bust the government - blame the capitalist for the failure - junk the constitution and declare a dictatorship" (note to the left- "it worked in Russia."

"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."

George Santayana, The Life of Reason, Volume 1, 1905

Letter from a Dodge dealer

From a letter to the editor

My name is George C. Joseph. I am the sole owner of Sunshine Dodge-Isuzu, a family owned and operated business in Melbourne, Florida. My family bought and paid for this automobile franchise 35 years ago in 1974. I am the second generation to manage this business.

Take Action against the Employee Free (NO) Choice Act

This comes to us from Dave in Powell.

The Employee Free Choice Act of 2009 is not what you think it is. If you have not read S560 or HR1409 I recommend that you go to http://thomas.loc.gov/home/thomas.html , look up the bills and read them. They are designed to eliminate the right to work clauses that many states have and force more employees into the unions so that they will have to pay union dues.We need to take action now:

1.) Contact your Senators and Congressman to encourage them to vote against these bills.

2.) Contact the Sponsors of these bills and request that they reconsider.

3.) Remember employees should have a right to choose whether they wish to be in a union or not.

4.) Remember employers should have the right to communicate with their employees not through some union thug/representative.

A Cause We Can All Get Behind

The liberal media and the leftists of this country fail to see what the Tea Parties are all about. They claim we are merely protesting taxes, then pull out Obama driven drivel supporting their claim that 95% of people are getting a "tax cut." (Has anybody seen any yet?)

However, that is not the only issue that gets under our skin. For example, the DHS report recently released is a great example of what we are fighting. This report basically labels anybody who dissents with the administration as a right-wing extremist. You are considered extreme if you meet the following criteria;

• Veterans, including; Korean war veterans, Vietnam war veterans, Gulf war veterans, Iraq War veterans, non-war period veterans, Cold war veterans, and probably WWII veterans as well.
• Single issue voters, you know, those who are concerned with the abortion of millions of Americans every year, or those who defend marriage between a man and a woman.

Also included are:

• Those who suffer economic hardship
• Those who question judicial activism
• Those who want to protect our borders
• And of course, those who organize or attend Tea Parties

Finally, some web entrepreneur has put it all together in one place, http://firenapolitano.com/. You can download the full (released version) of the DHS report, along with the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence as well as other helpful resources.

Of course, I am sure Janet Napolitano was working on her own, with no knowledge of this from our supreme leader. He would never condone this sort of action.
