In my last post dated Saturday, December 13, 2008, Recession, Inflation, Depression I stated we were already in a Recession.
"Old news, America is in a state of recession. During the national election no politician or media outlet wanted to face the fact. Everyone was too intent on making history and bringing about change in America."
After just 2 weeks with our new President Obama the situation has become worse with each passing day. With the House passing their devastating and Democrat only spending bill, and the Senate following in lockstep by adding a little more and freezing out the Republicans, we are at the threshold of another Great Depression.
I am sad to say that as I write this, I cannot help but feel my previous predictions for what lies ahead is fast approaching reality. I find it hard to believe we cannot learn from past mistakes. The honeymoon for the new President is quickly coming to an end. In fact, this will probably be the shortest honeymoon ever experienced by a United States President. The really sad thing for America is there is nothing that can be done to correct our mistake. You don't get a redo in selecting American Presidents, especially when you have Biden and Pelosi waiting in the wings.
I have to give President Obama credit for selecting Biden as Vice President. No matter how much Obama screws up and no matter how much deeper he drives us into Recession, Biden and Pelosi is certainly not the answer.
So what does America have to look forward to in 2009. With the passage of this Spending Bill and undoubtedly more spending before the summer ends, America like other countries around the world will hit double digit unemployment and most certainly end the year in a deep Depression.
As summer approaches and more Americans become unemployed we will probably witness more violence in our cities and the government will no doubt have the solution. The answer, a total ban on handguns and what the government decides to be assault rifles. Just like FDR did in the Great Depression, President Obama will give great speeches and create another series of New Deals. In the end the majority of Americans will be either government employees or will be receiving government subsidy checks. The country will be divided more between the haves and have not than at any time in history. With so many Americans depending on the government for their income and our government trying to run private business inflation will take over at an all time high. President Obama and Congress will nationalize most of the industries in America and the dollar will collapse. History shows that like FDR and his New Deals, government spending on top of government spending will not bring us out of a Recession.
By 2010 we will be living the same experience our fathers and grandfathers had to endure, another Worldwide Depression. The question is, will it take another World War II, to bring the world out of the 2nd Great Depression.
This does not have to be our future. If Congress and President Obama will only take a step back and look at history. History shows that like FDR and his New Deals, government spending on top of government spending will not bring us out of a Recession. Like FDR found out, the government does not create jobs or run a free economy. FDR tried Socialist programs and the Supreme Court stepped in, hopefully the Federal Courts in America will be up to the challenge of President Obama and a Democrat Congress that is flirting with Socialism today.

Recession, Inflation, Depression
Ron Spangler
Old news, America is in a state of recession. During the national election no politician or media outlet wanted to face the fact. Everyone was too intent on making history and bringing about change in America. The so called experts in the economy and the media analyst that were so all knowing and paraded before the camera every night have now all but disappeared. They have been replaced with more experts that believe the government can solve the problem by simply spending our way out of debt. I am not an expert but this seems crazy.
What the experts are not saying is with unemployment rising and production of goods being cut to an all time low, prices will go up for the limited quantity of goods on the open market. In their effort to put more people back to work by recreating Depression Era programs our new President and Congress will feed the flames of inflation. The seeds have already been sewn by our current President and current Congress. President elect Obama, Speaker Pelosi, and Senator Reid are promising more of the same. With all of his good intentions and desire to relieve some of the suffering Americans are experiencing,
Every economist and politician you talk to blames the current economic crisis on the housing bubble and unwillingness of the banks to give out credit. Politicians except no responsibility for the home loans and relative ease of people to receive loans that were forced upon the banks by our government. While this was part of the problem it is not the only reason our economy is in the shape it is today. Think back to the days before the bubble busted. The cost of everything was steadily increasing. Some speculators jumped into the markets and started to use the markets for personal greed and political reasons. Billionaires and millionaires played the stock market through hedge funds to make millions and billions more with a total disregard for the future of the country or the economy. The very nature of any market is to gamble that you can buy low when stocks are down and sell them at a higher price or live off of the dividends. Nothing illegal but some speculators made a run on certain stocks and then put out some kind of rumor that led people to believe these stocks would have a drastic increase in value. As soon as the stocks reached a profitable enough margin to satisfy the speculators they would short sell all of their stocks and start all over again. Other speculators hit the commodities market for purely political reasons.
In the case of oil what better way to bring down the economy and sew discontent amongst the voters than to force an outrageous and unnecessary increase on the price of oil. People like George Soros are not stupid people, uncaring, callous, and power hungry yes but stupid no. Would billionaires like Soros really be willing to destroy the world's economy and risk everything for more power in running the governments of the world, yes. Oil always has been and always will be the life blood of every economy. The world depends on oil for everything we produce from medicine, food, electronics, and clothing, to the transportation needs of the world. Take away our oil supply and the world will stop.
For some reason we cannot understand how important and how vital oil has become to mankind's very existence. People refuse to accept or learn from lessons of the past. What really caused our economy to crash was the attack on the oil market. When the price of oil went over $80 a barrel everything went up. Ordinary people went deeper in debt, companies cut back and began loosing money, the government turned a blind eye and allowed the price to continue. Politicians used the downturn in the economy and the high price of oil to promise all kinds of change and better days ahead if only they were elected. Politicians and experts told us new technology would solve our problems by making us less dependent on oil. We heard that before but somehow forgot that without oil new technologies cannot be invented or produced. The same politicians that made these promises never for a minute understood or imagined how much damage the price of oil would have on the future of our economy.
Now that the price of oil is down, miraculously right after the elections ended, what will happen with our economy? Unfortunately the future looks bleak. The new President and Congress will spend like drunken sailors or FDR and create more and more national debt for our children to pay. At some point inflation will hit double digit numbers and taxes will be raised simply to pay the interest on all of the borrowing our government is doing. There will be more people working for the government than private business. Companies and entire industries will be nationalized and eventually we will slip into another Great Depression. Because of the distrust, religious and cultural differences, and outright hatred of the United States by the Islamic world, George Soros and his followers will never see their plan for a One World Economy.
Is this a pessimistic doomsday prediction of times to come? Maybe it is. Can we change it? Probably not. It is true, we reap what we sew. The seeds we sowed in the last election will produce a Chicago style government and nothing we do can stop it. If President Obama should have to step down for any reason what do we have left? President Biden? President Pelosi? I really have to give President Obama congratulations on a well run extraordinary campaign. His time in Chicago has been well spent.

Pelosi Reid Obama Spells Dictatorship
by Ron Spangler
With the election just eight days away the question has become, will American voters vote to transform America into a country ran under the dictatorship of a one party government of Pelosi, Reid and Obama or will we continue to have a balanced two party system.
Recent and past comments by Obama, Reid, Pelosi, Barney Frank, Maxine Walters and Joe Biden
When American voters step into the booth they would be wise to ask, what type of country do we want to pass on to our children. Are we willing to sit back and watch as Maxine Walters attempts to nationalize the oil companies (her comment)? Are we willing to allow President Obama to "spread the wealth", as he sees fit? Are we willing to take a chance and face a national crisis and challenge from our enemies, because they want to "test the mettle" of Obama, Biden's comments? Do we really want to reinstate the Fairness Doctrine, basically controlling free speech? Do we want to see ordinary people investigated and their lives destroyed because they asked their public figures a simple question? In short, are we willing to watch as our country, that so many Americans fought and died to defend, slowly but deliberately turns itself into a Socialist State.
This November Americans will be deciding whether or not we will remain the government of the people, by the people, for the people or will we be the government of King Obama and the Three Amigos.

Testing Obama Metal, Joe Biden
As reported by ABC News
"I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate," Biden said to Emerald City supporters, mentioning the Middle East and Russia as possibilities.
Here is another scenario laid out in Articlesbase.com "Welcome To The United Socialist States of America"
" Using the economic down turn and public mistrust of Wall Street the nationalization of the banks and markets in America will be swift. Corporate taxes and taxes on all business in America will reach a new all time high. New tariffs will be placed on companies with plants outside of American borders. If companies don't agree to keep their production facilities within the United States and pay the highest corporate tax in the world, they could see their companies nationalized. This New World Order will be the agenda of a President and Congress intent on Socializing America. They will be following the blueprints and book written by George Soros.
Congress will inact the Windfall Profit Tax on oil companies and subsidize the cost of fuel at the pumps. As business reacts to the higher taxes and begin to rebel, Congress will make an example by nationalizing American oil companies and refineries within American borders. As markets around the world continue to have violent reaction to the heavy handed regulations placed upon them by the American Congress, the President will embark upon a new world summit where the markets will be redesigned to fall into the New World Order with George Soros leading the way.
With the world facing another Great Depression and maybe another World War, Europe will capitulate under threats and pressure from Russia, China, Iran and America. The promise of economic stability and world peace will be so great that the idea of a one world economy and monetary system will be a minor price to pay.
In order to reach an economic agreement with the other nations, President Obama will agree to a final solution on the subject of Israel and the Middle East. There will be a timetable agreed to by the Nations involved but neither the agreement or timetable will be made available to the public or Israel. President Obama will be well into his first term before events agreed upon within the agreement begin to take place. Iran pressured by Russia and China will agree to wait until the world's economy has stabilized before acting upon the secret agreement with President Obama.
This is one scenario facing the world and America under the leadership of a President Obama. Whether it is a realistic scenario or not, nobody knows. We do know that "redistribution of wealth" is one of the major tennacles of socialism. We know that Putin is the true power in Russia and he is determined to resurrect the Soviet Union under a Socialist government. We know the leaders in Iran are determined to be a super power in the Middle East and they will not stop until they have gained complete control of the area. They will not rest until they have a nuclear bomb and they are convinced President Obama will not stop them from achieving nuclear capability. We also know China would look upon an Obama Administration as another failed Carter Administration. They know President Obama would never consider a war with China over Taiwan. Negotiations with a country turning away from a capitalist economy to a country embracing socialism are negotiations China has been waiting for."
Was this one of the "at least four or five scenarios" Senator Biden was talking about, only time will tell.

CNN; KFC, Watermelon, Donkeys Are Racist
by Ron Spangler
Americans must be very careful not to offend anyone in the black community or risk being outed as a racist. Among other things we cannot in any way associate Barack Obama with a Donkey, Kentucky Fried Chicken, or Watermelons. These things including pictures of any or all, have become the exclusive property of the black community. Forget that most people in America and other parts of the world grew up eating chicken or watermelon and donkeys were introduced into America by European and Spanish countries. To be Politically correct, white Americans can no longer speak of these three things using satire or comedy since it would be insensitive towards blacks in America.
This has been decided by CNN and the rest of the Obama supporting media in America. Until the Fairness Doctrine can be reinstated by the next Congress and signed into law by President Obama, it seems the media has decided what people can and cannot say. Just ask Joe The Plumber what can and will happen if you ask Sen Obama the wrong question.
I grew up eating fried chicken, watermelon and and knew a lot of people that owned donkeys, mules, or horses. Some were white people and some were black people. I never knew until today that any of the three belonged to any one race or culture. I would like to thank CNN and all of the Obama supporters for enlightening this poor backwoods boy.
I promise I will never associate myself with anything or anyone that displays a donkey as a symbol of anything other than the black community or culture. Further I will boycott any restaurant that is offering fried chicken or watermelon without acknowledging the African culture.

Another Knife In The Back
When will Senator McCain learn he cannot trust a Democrat. As he should have learned years ago there are no honest respectable politicians in the Democratic Party, only back stabbers that will do or say anything to win. Want proof? Just today
I cannot believe there are any intelligent people on the planet that would believe for a minute that John McCain could have an ounce of racism running through his body. McCain is the same man that just recently praised John Lewis and Barack Obama. What does McCain get in return, a cold hard blade in the back. Why did Lewis say:
"Sen. McCain and Gov. Palin are sowing the seeds of hatred and division, and there is no need for this hostility in our political discourse."
Lewis went on:
"George Wallace never threw a bomb," Lewis noted. "He never fired a gun, but he created the climate and the conditions that encouraged vicious attacks against innocent Americans who were simply trying to exercise their constitutional rights. Because of this atmosphere of hate, four little girls were killed on Sunday morning when a church was bombed in Birmingham, Alabama."
The reason he is saying such despicable things, he wants Barack to win no matter what.
And where is Barack Obama? His reply to Senator McCain's anger for Lewis's remarks? In Pennsylvania Barack said: "I have always said we owe our gratitude to Senator McCain for his past service. But......"
So whose playing the race card? It has and always will be the media (CNN, MSNBC, and NBC in particular). They don't come right out and make accusations but instead make inferences by posing the questions and constantly debating if McCain supporters or anyone that votes for McCain are hidden racists.
Who else is playing the race card? The Obama campaign and his supporters. Like John Lewis, any attempt at questioning Obama will be dealt with in the swiftest and most effective manner. The swiftest and most direct manner to stop a questioner and place the person on defense is to accuse the person of being racist with the questions. Its a great strategy but it is wearing very thin.
John McCain is the last person you could in any way connect or equate to George Wallace. It is not only absurd, it is below racist to suggest this insane idea. Lewis, Obama the Congressional Black Caucus and the entire leadership of the NAACP owes John McCain an apology. Being in the position of leadership that John Lewis holds only leaves me to believe this is not the rantings of a single man.
One more example of why we cannot trust Barack Obama.

Dangers Of Voter Registration Fraud
By now most Americans have heard or read something about all of the voter registration fraud going on in American. Most of the political pundits and commentators look at it and say its not important in the election. They would have people believe that our election process at the local level is so secure that even though the dead have been registered and some individuals have registered up to 70 times, they will be caught if they try to vote and their votes will not be counted.
They point to all of the good things ACORN (the biggest culprit behind registration fraud) has accomplished, like registering 1.3 million new voters. They gloss over the fact that ACORN is pushing all new voters to sign up as Democrats and vote for Obama. These pundits and commentators that are passing themselves off to be legitimate journalists overlook the obvious danger in voter registration fraud. Remember a lot of these folks are the same ones that deny Democrats like Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Maxine Walters, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and yes Barack Obama had anything to do with the current economic crisis.
The most glaring danger of registration fraud results in a form of voter suppression. If you watch news reports and watch the polls, McCain supporters will get the impression it is all over and their votes will be meaningless. With so many new Democrat registrations and so few McCain supporters how in the world could McCain ever win? With this in mind, why should we even bother to vote? According to television reports and all of the polls, Democrats will sweep the election at both the National and Local levels. So why should Republicans and Independent McCain supporters waste their time? Doesn't America deserve what she gets if Obama and the Democrats gain complete control of both the Congress and White House?
These are depressing and defeatists thoughts that could lead many to stay home and not bother to vote. After all if you're a Indianapolis Colts fan and their opponent is leading the game by 21 points with only 5 minutes left, isn't it time to leave the stadium or turn the channel. Maybe not. Ask any NFL fan what can happen in the last 5 minutes of a football game, especially with Peyton Manning and the Colts. Many a day I have been on the edge of my chair ready to change the channel. Unfortunately for me sometimes I did change the channel only to find out after it was over that the Colts stepped up and won the game in the last 2 or 3 minutes. I can't explain the remorse I felt for not hanging in and having faith.
Unlike the clowns on television and experts running the polls I will not give in, give up, or voluntarily surrender America to Obama and the Democrats like the ones that are truly responsible for the economic chaos facing America. Groups like ACORN can do whatever they like to discourage me but it will not happen. Senator McCain may not have it in his DNA to attack a fellow Senator with stories he believes to be untrue or use character assassination to win an election, but he does place the interest of America and the American people above all else. I cannot say the same is true for Senator Obama and the Democratic Party. If McCain supporters act like NFL fans and stay true to their team, never give up and stay involved they cannot lose.

Ten Reasons You Might Be A Racist
by Ron Spangler
According to the liberal media there are telltale signs to look for when determining if someone is a racist. This election has become so politically correct you may not know you are a racist until you find out from the Obama supporters that you are in fact a racist. Here are ten ways the media determines if you are a racist:
1) If you use Barack's full name, Barack Hussein Obama, in a sentence.
2) If you question Barack's judgment for not knowing Bill Ayres' background when every other Democrat in Chicago politics did.
3) Asking for a complete investigation of Barack's past association with groups like ACORN, past Weather Underground members, Louis Farrakhan, Reverend Wright and others.
4) Asking Barack for his complete medical record instead of a one page document.
5) Questioning his character for throwing anyone off the Obama bus if he thinks they could in any way become a liability for his quest to become president.
6) Question Barack's honesty for promising the voters everything and anything when he knows with the world economy tanking, he will not be able to deliver on half of what he has promised.
7) Question statements from Michele Obama.
8) Question his knowledge and qualifications to be Commander In Chief.
9) Question his refusal to have direct open debates with unscripted unrehearsed voters in a real town hall setting.
10) Question his background and record, or lack thereof.
Bottom line with most of the media in the tank for Barack Obama and most Americans believing what they see on TV, any opponent of Obama will have a mountain so high that it will be virtually impossible to climb. I wish Senator McCain the best for his brave attempt to beat Barack, but I am afraid he is about to find out the media can inflict much more pain and suffering than the North Vietnamese did during his stay in the Hanoi Hilton.
