Don't Listen to Republicans They Will Kill Your Children

Obama: Attacks 'terrible' setback in Islamic State campaign

From a story located at:
http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/obama-attacks-terrible-setback-in-islamic-state-campaign/ar-BBn4oR5?li=AAa0dzB&ocid=UP97DHP

My Comment:
      I would have to agree with the President. Unless the American people are willing to support a permanent military presence in terms of ground troops, national treasure and lives, we should not repeat the errors of the previous administration.

      Overwhelmingly, the American people don't want to put combat troops into that area of the world. With the Paris attacks tempting Americans to insert troops into combat, bolstering a false
sense of bravado, the enthusiasm for more war would soon subside as body bags started coming home.

      President Obama is correct to not leave a ground war for the next President to deal with. On top of that, the Political Party bragging the most and being the most belligerent has prevented any new authorization for combat. It appears they only want to blame the President for events they are responsible for and not put themselves on the line authorizing war.

      President Obama is in a Constitutional no-man’s paradox. Wage war against ISIS without authorization and take constant criticism or stop all combat operations because of a do nothing Congress. In any event, all Republicans want to do is blame Obama.

      All we know for sure is that we cannot listen to the Republicans because they have been so wrong on foreign policy in the recent past. The entire mess in Syria and with ISIS is entirely the fault of wrongheaded Republicans and George W. Bush. The lies they told, leading up to Iraq, even convinced Democrats to vote for that war.

      The same Republicans who lied us into a war in the recent past are at it again. They won't take responsibility for the gross mistakes they falsely convinced America to take. They won't take responsibility for the wasted lives America lost pursuing a false policy that was destined from the beginning to fail.

      All they want to do is not authorize further combat operations. They don't want to tax the American people to fight another war. They just pretend how wise and tough they are when it has become obvious they don't know what they are talking about.

Save the Nation from Republicans or Watch it Perish

Save the Nation from Republicans or Watch it Perish

I compare a lot of Republicans (not all) to latent Confederate Traitors. Today’s Republicans have much the same goals the Confederates had during our civil war. Destroy the Federal Government and create 50 independent nations (in modern terms) making their own laws.

Civil Liberties in Kansas would not be like those in California. Civil Liberties would not be uniform across our land. Never forget! That is what “States Rights” people want. The Confederate mentality does not regard “Equal Protection Under the Law” as necessary if those protections contradict their political or religious ideas.

Confederate Traitors and Fundamentalist Christians absolutely hate many of our Civil Liberties. They hate having a central government tell them they have to obey our nations laws. Time and time again, Confederate Traitors attempt to violate the laws of our nation and repeatedly our Federal Government corrects the errors of their ways. Secessionists hate our government telling them they have to obey national laws. They just hate it!

People forget their history. The Confederacy was formed only for the purpose of seceding from
the Union and uniting their state armies to accomplish their task. If they had prevailed, none of the states would have stayed in a temporary Confederacy. General Lee wanted to form an independent nation called the Commonwealth of Virginia. Alabama and Georgia were shooting at each other over border disputes before the war ended. The "States Rights", “autonomous state” mentality, was argued fiercely at the Constitutional Convention.

The Federalists won the day and we have our current government. However, the notion of 50 independent nations not governed by a central regime has not died off. Today, that philosophy has re-emerged in the Republican Party. This “States Rights” movement is supported by every single Republican candidate wanting to take the reins of power.

There is not a single Republican Candidate willing to save the Union the way Abraham Lincoln did. Not one Republican Candidate would send troops to Central High School in Little Rock and enforce Federal de-segregation laws the way Eisenhower did. If the South had won the war, there is a good chance Arkansas would still be segregated. Mike Huckabee would not have fixed Arkansas.

A “States Rights” Congress and a secessionist President will accomplish what the Confederacy could not get done on the battlefield. A couple more Supreme Court Justices sympathetic to the Confederate cause will codify in law this rebellion.

No outside force can defeat this nation militarily. However, we are at risk from forces working within our borders to defeat the American dream. The destruction of our nation is well on its way. Just look at Republican candidates for President, State Governors who routinely advocate violating Federal law and Republican State Legislators passing nullification laws.

Everyone who loves this nation needs to wake up. This is no small matter. Sitting at home and not voting will destroy the nation. We need a Supreme Court that still believes in one nation under the same laws. Republicans will not give you that dream.

This 2016 election is about Union Blue Democrats stepping forward and saving our Union once again. Complacency will insure defeat. The assault on our nation is much more sophisticated than during our Civil War. Save the Union or watch it perish.

Congress evading war powers even with US mission in Syria

Congress evading war powers even with US mission in Syria
By Gary Donovan Snay

From a story located at:


My Comment:
Obama should go on national TV and announce all military operations have been suspended because he doesn't feel as though he has proper authorization from the Congress to wage war.

Force Congress to exercise the Constitutional authority granted to it by our founding fathers to declare war. This applies to both sides of the aisle. There have been far too many wars and far too many lost lives going back to Korea when the Congress first gave up its war making powers. It’s simple! Declare war or don’t.

Declare war and do the job right or get out and let others spend their national treasure and bury their children. If there is war, tax the people to pay for it. You can't put wars on a credit card. If the Congress doesn't want to tax the people, don't authorize war. Much of our national debt comes from credit card wars.

If members of Congress will not take responsibility for the votes they cast, they should resign and let responsible people take their place. The President can't be blamed if he ceases military operations because Congress won't act. There should be more than one person acting in the interests of our nation.

Every member of our government and every citizen should in our nation should be willing to own up to a decision requiring the death of many people. If war is decided, every person in America should be willing to pay for that decision with their money. If they don’t want to pay, don’t wage war.

Adhering to the Constitution by all parties concerned would be refreshing and lend strength to the idea we have the best system in the world. Failing to exercise the duties outlined in the Constitution contributes to the disillusionment many Americans have in our system.


Mr. President! Stop all military operations until the Congress does its job. Not waging war in futile efforts would be refreshing, anyway. Perhaps if more than one person decided on having a war or not having a war, better decisions would be made.

Religion is Overcoming the American Constitution

Religion is Overcoming the American Constitution
By Gary Donovan Snay

Perhaps not in this election cycle, but soon. Someone like Ben Carson will be President. The Congress will be controlled by people like Ben Carson and the Supreme Court will become a religious review board. Ben Carson is really talking about the overthrow of the United States of America.

This problem has been growing for years. Apathy and a fear of religion has prevented
corrective action. Mainstream religion has been silent long enough. Government is no longer capable of solving the religious problem in America. Religious entanglement has already rendered government incapable of remedial action.

Mainstream religion has to take a stand. Along with our government, all religions, not like Ben Carson's, are threatened as well. Ben Carson is only the tip of the iceberg. These people hate a secular nation. They hate our Constitution. They hate Separation of Church and State. They will change everything and you won't like what they do.

History has shown the blight of mankind (religion) can destroy any government. Evidence of our coming destruction is demonstrated every day. Don’t take this issue lightly. There has been a war going on for a couple decades. They have been firing canon shots at America in a one-way war. They have been emboldened by the lack of response by our government and our people.


Defend your way of life now or let people like Ben Carson dictate how you live your life in the future. This is a very real threat to our country and it is time to pay attention.

The World Should Fear a Paranoid America

The World Should Fear a Paranoid America
By Gary Donovan Snay

The symptoms of paranoia are when someone suffers from persecution complexes and also has delusions of grandeur. Ben Carson displays both these traits to the extreme. I’m not saying Ben Carson is a clinically Paranoid individual. He is a Social Paranoid as explained below.
Americas favorite Uncle Tom
When you think about it, isn't Social Paranoia a common factor among many Americans today? Have you ever wondered why it's so hard talking to people like Ben Carson? It's because Social Paranoia is one of the most difficult mental disorders to cure.
When talking to someone who has delusions of grandeur, nothing you say will impact them. When pointing out their facts are wrong, they immediately accuse you of persecuting them. We have all experienced that moment, when in the course of a conversation, you state irrefutable evidence and the person’s response is to call you a liberal. They cut off the conversation by saying you hate America or you’re not a believer. For all intent and purpose, the conversation is over.
It's really called Social Paranoia. Germany had a bad case of Social Paranoia after WWI. When persecution complexes combined with the belief in their superiority, the Nazi movement grew
Don't empower this guy
into the nightmare we know occurred in those years. Social paranoia was not the exclusive domain of the Nazi’s in Germany but infected the entire German nation.
In the course of a few years, the Germany went insane. In America, the signs of insanity become stronger and stronger each day. During the Bush/Kerry election, signs of insanity was exposed to its fullest. Many people in America and Europe couldn’t believe what they had witnessed.
By the time the Bush/Kerry election had arrived the nation knew there was something wrong with George W. Bush. It became well known that he lied America into an unnecessary war killing at least 200,000 innocent people. He authorized kidnapping, rendering and death by torture violating every rule of law both internationally and nationally. He authorized mass surveillance of the American people without warrant, violating US law.
There was massive evidence of war crimes being committed in both Afghanistan and Iraq.
Exploiter of fear
Yet the American people gave George W. Bush a second term supporting his lawless behavior. With the American people’s support, war crimes continued and Europe gasped. What happened to America? The German people supported Adolf Hitler and America supported George W. Bush. Yes, it is the same Social Paranoia at work.
The American version of Social Paranoia has a different personality. Social Paranoia in America is taking a different course, hopefully. Nevertheless. people like Ben Carson, Ted Cruz, Rick Santorum, Mike Huckabee are able to stir up the same emotions German leaders once exploited.
Like Germany, American Social Paranoia is driven by religion. The Donald Trump movement is driven by Social Paranoia as well but the religious component is not as apparent. Nevertheless, much of Donald Trump’s support emanates from Fundamentalist Christians and their paranoid cohorts owning guns.
Super paranoid
There is one notable exception. The gun movement isn’t an entirely religious crusade. However, much of the gun movement is in alliance with religion. Some of the most strident philosophies regarding guns are held by church going Americans. The symptoms of Social Paranoia are the same though. There is no evidence anyone is trying to disarm America yet a very strong persecution complex exists. When someone carries an assault weapon into Taco Bell, ignoring other people’s feelings, a strong notion of superiority is being exhibited. This is Social Paranoia. It’s not clinical, it’s social.
Social paranoia is growing in America and like Germany, it has a religious overtone.  It is never spoken by most because it is not politically correct but there is a simple truth about WWII Germany. Germany was 90% Catholic in those days. Catholics operated the death camps. Catholics murdered millions in Russia. WWII was a Catholic war supported by nearly all Germans in that historical era.
Today we have a religious movement in America driving our own version of Social Paranoia
Would have done well in Germany
. Make no mistake, our version can grow to be just as dangerous as Germany's version. It is not uncommon to see delusions of grandeur practiced by elements of the American people with respect to civil liberties, a disregard for other religions, disrespect for women and a loathing of people with brown or black skin. Accusations of persecution proliferate among millions of Americans when confronted with the error of their thinking.
Racism drove Germany into insanity and racism towards our President has exposed American recklessness by large portions of our society. It’s exactly the same thing, just a different time and a different boogie man. American paranoia makes excuses for war crimes, lawlessness and even suggests it’s alright to settle the Muslim problem with the use of nuclear weapons and the genocide of an entire race of people. That’s right! Large sections of the American people see nothing wrong with committing genocide.
Germany saw nothing wrong with their version of genocide either. America is just one election and one more terror attack away from committing genocide on an entire religion. Americas paranoid sector is actively fantasizing about this solution right now as I type these words. This should be no surprise to anyone.
An example of what could happen to all of us
The American people practiced genocide against the American Indians and it black population all with religious participation. All those crimes were committed because of a sense of superiority and a persecution fear of interracial mingling. Social paranoia ran rampant in those days.
America fire bombed many Japanese cities killing hundreds of thousands of civilians and of course America incinerated two Japanese cities with its new toy, the Atomic bomb.  In those days there was a very strong sense of superiority over the Japanese people and when we incarcerated Japanese Americans out of our fear of persecution, social paranoia ran wild within American circles. To this day people defend America’s paranoia.
Many leaders in the Republican Party exploit Social Paranoia in America. They use it to gain political advantage. Just the other day the people of Houston voted to rescind civil rights protections for tax paying American Citizens.
Those election results were accomplished by a growing power grab by Socially Paranoid
Exploiter of paranoia and superiority
Christians. Christian paranoids loaded up their church buses and voted in mass while Democrats sat on their duff and did nothing. Germany was taken over in a similar manner. It only gets worse in the future.
Many legislative bodies in America routinely vote to deny American citizens the right to vote. These same legislative bodies do everything in their power to deny women health care and their right to choose what they do with their own bodies. The same paranoia driving crimes against Indians, blacks and Japanese is alive and well in America. The delusion of superiority elects war criminals, denies civil liberties and ponders genocide.
A Dominionist

Ben Carson is not alone. There are millions of Socially Paranoid Americans just like him. Ben Carson and any Uncle Tom willing to betray his own race for political gain will be a temporary hero to the paranoid among us. While it may be cute for a little while, Ben Carson will never be President. In order to completely satisfy the Socially Paranoid population of America a white man will have to carry the day. In America, paranoia is the exclusive property of white people.

US to deploy small number of special forces to Syria in advisory role

US to deploy small number of special forces
to Syria in advisory role
By Gary Donovan Snay

From a story located at:

My Comment:

Now we get to hear news stories of American soldiers coming home in body bags, again. Special forces people are really good but they are not immune to a bullet. Chances are good one of the so called good guys will murder them.

Weapons will fall into the hands of the bad guys because nobody can figure out the mess in Syria. They have spent a few billion dollars on that lost cause with no effect. It doesn't matter who is in office. The same mistakes are made regardless of party affiliation. Look at the mass murder committed by Bush.

They should spend our billions on the most comprehensive embargo in the history of mankind. Destroy all their aircraft. Destroy any vehicle going in or out of Syria. Don't even let food go into the country. If Russia doesn't like it, too bad. When they run out of bullets and food, they will stop.


What we don't need is a mother and father looking at a picture of their dead son hanging on the wall and wondering why he had to die. There are already enough pictures like that hanging on walls all over the country because of useless wars like Viet Nam, Iraq and Afghanistan. The Syrians are not worth anymore American lives.

Is America on the wrong track?

Paul Ryan is just another Republican liar
By Gary Donovan Snay

From a story located at:


My Comment:

These Republicans keep talking as though the country's about to fall apart. This country has done quite well under Obama. We are at or near full recovery. That’s an amazing statement after
what the Republicans did to us in the last administration. I was reading somewhere that if we continue on our current path we will have a balanced budget in two years.
Don’t think for a moment Republicans lent a hand in the recovery either. Starting from day one Republicans announced they would oppose anything President Obama attempted. Republicans have been obstructionists from the very beginning and get no credit for a job well done by Obama.
When Ryan says we are on the wrong path I can't help but wonder what he is talking about. Using the last administration as an example, are we supposed to go back to the days of Bush Jr.? There is a lot of evidence indicating if people bad mouth the economy enough, it will become a self-fulfilling reality.
What do Republicans want anyway? Is the Republican strategy of bad mouthing American economic success, designed to destroy our economy for political reasons? Is that their real intent? Telling everyone how bad things are when our nation has outperformed every other nation in the world borders on the bazar. Centering an entire campaign strategy on how many lies they can tell is very typical of the Republican Party as well.
After their performance in the last administration, I don't believe Republicans know anything about our economy.  Republicans have been wrong on the economy and wrong about war. A political party demonstrating such wrongheaded decisions should never be listened to again. It should be a no brainer. However, Republican hatred for Democrats far outweighs any common sense.

Republicans just need to shut up! They were wrong back then and they are wrong now.

Religion Can Potentially Destroy America

      The Threat Within
By Gary Donovan Snay

     Do not take lightly the rise of the evangelical movement in this country. It is traditional for Americans to leave religion alone but there comes a time when we all need to take notice. Whenever you see a tongue speaking Uncle Tom rise to the top of Republican polls, it is time to stop blaming Ben Carson.

     After all, he is so dumb he doesn't realize he's black and all his friends are racist. Ben Carson is not the danger. He’s just an Oreo that has discovered how to exploit his race and religion for political advantage.

     It is evangelical Christians who hate our nation, our government and anyone not like them. Of all the threats in this world to America, it is the threat from within which presents the greatest danger. Don't underestimate the power of religion to alter a government.

Hillary Clinton’s opposition to TPP is a sign of just how worried she is about Bernie Sanders

Hillary Clinton’s opposition to TPP is a sign of just how worried she is about Bernie Sanders
By Gary Donovan Snay

From a story located at:

My comment:

I seriously doubt the current version of the TPP is the same version Hillary worked on when she was Secretary of State. A lot of changes have occurred since she was in a position to influence the agreement. Aside from that, she was under the authority of Obama and was obligated to support the Administration she worked for.


It wouldn't be hard to believe she may have evolved from support to opposition. In my opinion, she demonstrates wisdom. I am so tired of politicians taking a position on something, then after finding the error of their ways, keep sticking to the bad decision, no matter what (i.e., Iraq).


There have been many times in my life I made decisions only to gain new knowledge and discover I was wrong. Upon the revelation of my error, I changed my mind. Most people are mature enough to do just that. You know, change your mind if there is a better way.


Sitting around and chastising Hillary for an act of maturity can only be practiced by people lacking the wisdom to change one's mind in the face of facts. Either that or all the name calling is based on their hate for the woman. I want people like Hillary in charge. Not childish brats whose only solution is to call names and have tantrums.

US warns Russia against striking non-IS groups in Syria

US warns Russia against striking non-IS groups in Syria
By Gary Donovan Snay

From a story located at:

My comment:

               
All you people who act so tough. Are you the same people who supported going into Iraq in the first place? Nice job! We should never listen to you again. That whole mess over there is your fault.

               Bush damaged many Presidents now and into the future. We set the example for others to follow. It will be years before anyone respects us again because of Bush and all his wrongheaded war monger supporters.

                Keep talking you dumb asses. You'll get us nuked by Putin yet. Don't complain if someone else acts like we have. We don't have a leg to stand on. You need to shut your mouth.
