The Shining City just disappeared.

"In my mind it was a tall, proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans, windswept, God-blessed, and teeming with people of all kinds living in harmony and peace"

Yup, Dream act will take care of that.

"a city with free ports that hummed with commerce and creativity."


"And if there had to be city walls, the walls had doors and the doors were open to anyone with the will and the heart to get here."

Well tell your Republican friends to get off their bottoms and pass immigration reform.



Yup, that's happening, and if Michigan can get rid of that moron who owns the Ambassador bridge, things will get even better. Keystone will be signed in by mid 2013, unless the state governors go against it and hold it up.

"That's how I saw it, and see it still.'" - President Ronald Reagan"

That's how Obama sees it as well.

Its too bad that your hate runs so deep, it wipes out any optimism you may have. Work with us towards a bright future instead of working against us to try to revive a flawed mythical ideological past.

"I do fear ...."
Yes. We know. That has been your premise for as long as Ive been reading your blog.

You might want to take JMans advice.
At least refrain from the "Our 1st priority is to bring Obama down" that was voiced 4 years ago today.

jman99: Obama is no Ronald Reagan. Can you really say with a straight face that the most divisive president ever - Obama - who has pitted rich against poor, white against black, gays against straights, women against men, etc. - is suddenly going to change his tune and "reach across the aisle?" No way. All bets are off now and Obama knows it. He was handed the keys to the kingdom on a silver platter - he can do what he wants and not answer to anyone (the press and public). He can bypass the normal procedures and Constitution (as he has already done many times) and invoke "executive orders" to pass whatever he wishes.

Think jobs are coming back? No. In fact, Obama will shut down the coal and oil industries, losing jobs and energy sources - crippling our country even more. Obamacare will kill off private insurance. Obamacare will force employers to put their employees on Obamacare (it is cheaper, so what is the incentive for employers to pay more for employee insurance when they do not have to?). More people, less doctors, longer waits, worse care! Hey, we're a European socialist country now!!! More people will rely on food stamps. More people will lose jobs. And the country will become less safe, as our enemies rejoice in an Obama win - and our military spending faces drastic cuts under Obama.

Maybe after four more years of "The One" the clueless will wake up. Although, sadly it appears as though the "me-me-me" mentality has taken hold in many Americans. A very sad day - and years to come - for our country.

Less than 300 years and the United States is basically going under before our eyes.

Excellent point made by Bill O'Reilly on FOX last night:

"People want "stuff."
The landscape of America is changing.
People feel they are entitled to "things" and will vote for the candidate that will give them "stuff.""

Now, we all know how the government is able to give out "stuff" (entitlements) - by picking the pockets of the taxpayers. While half of America works hard or struggles to find work, the other half apparently feels "entitled" to take what the working crowd earns. Sad, but true.

Amy...exactly what I said in my closing comments on my blog. Some libs told me that Romney, like 08, was not a formidable candidate. that is so untrue. Romney had jobs and biz experience, wants people to lift themselves up and help them find work. Obama's accolades are placing more people on foodstamps or adding more time and $ to those who refuse to work. free cell phones too. even Reagan could not have won. Nor will any good American ever win the WH unless they promise more "free stuff." It's the new norm. America will self-implode, if we are not destroyed by our enemies, before you and I leave this earth. I don’t believe America is smart enough to see any of this. Obama and his communist/socialists in his admin know this

"Obama is no Ronald Reagan."

Neither is Mitt Romney.

But Obama is closer to Reagan than Romney was.

Work with us and we will all move ahead.

People have become addicted to the government like an addict is addicted to drugs. Both being in denial, end up on a destructive path. It is going to be very difficult to repair this country when Obama is done with his term. He will not be able to blame Bush for these next four years or will he? I wonder what he meant when he whispered to the Russian leader, "After my election, I have more flexibility." God help us.

jman99: Again, I say Obama has no desire to "work with us" in regards to Republicans/conservatives. He IS the great divider. His actions speak louder than his empty rhetoric - he says one thing and does the complete opposite. Just watch the next four years.
Just as our own Tammy "you're damn right" Baldwin portrayed herself as a "moderate." She is the most extreme liberal in the Senate - she may even be more extreme than Obama - which is saying a lot. Yet, she could not run on what she truly believes or she would have frightened the voters off. So now we will see the "real" Tammy emerge. Let's follow her voting record for a year, then maybe we can pull out the favorite liberal trick - a recall effort!!!

Prime example of how well the Republicans get the job done. Mitch McConnell -"The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one term president." You hard-line conservatives have only yourselves to blame for the failure of the Republican party to make any significant gains in the political makeup of the country. Continuously denigrating the "47%" as being lazy, not wanting to work and simply wanting to accept "entitlements" got that 47%'s dander up and pushed them to the polls. Using the tax structure to reduce your tax burden is somehow wrong, in your mind, for people that make less than $50K a year but it's acceptable for those that make more than $250K a year. What twisted logic do you use the reach that conclusion? I'm one of those 47%ers. I really wanted to fall and break my back so I could just sit back take my entitlement - Social Security disability. My wife went back to school after having 4 children and earned both a Bachelors and Masters degree so she could fall ill with a debilitating disease so she could just sit back and take her entitlement - Social Security disability. We earned our entitlement by working over 40 years each - it wasn't handed to us. Communists/socialists - I'm starting to believe in reincarnation. Welcome back Joe.

Pooooor Amy and her made up profiles.... Excuse my pun but that's what you get for
being on your high horse here Amy you got thrown.... If your smart which it appears your
not you would take away from Tammy Baldwin, Warren, and Obama being elected that
America is not worried about how big or small the government is we want smart
government that works for the people not for their pharma contacts, their investments and
the Koch Brothers... We want leaders that work with the other party.... Obama reached out
to both sides last night. While John Beohner said look we were right because we got the
majority again.... Your example you couldn't just admit you were wrong you had to spin it
that this means America likes socialism.... Your so bitter Amy you know full well
Obamacare is not a hand out, you know welfare laws got tighter not looser under
Obama... Think about someone other than yourself and your own narrow view... Why not
work to put better ideas out in a constructive way here than to just complain about not
getting your way? Maybe achieve is right maybe he should make you quit. You don't
seem to understand your party is not working is just complaining

What happened to all those predictions of yours Amy? You seemed so sure...so
much for conservative omniscience.

Guess you need a new crystal ball, or maybe you just need to try another brand of
tea, or maybe you need younger goats.

Hemmer I gave you the same contract Romney did "trust me" your need for more substantial security is what Democrats said to Romney. You LOST PAY UP!!! no more blog... You keep blogging and your a welch and a liar.

Hemmer I gave you an offer when you ran your mouth about the huge victory Romeny and Ryan would have. You took that bet if I gave you my personal email and said it was on. I gave up my name and email.... You tried to keep pushing to put more conditions on when you saw the stupidity of your wager. YOU LOST. END OF BLOG SWEETHEART. ARE YOU STAY AND YOU WILL NEVER LIVE DOWN YOUR LIE AND WELCHING.

"Welcome back Joe."

Yea, what a dark period in our nations history, many good people were ruined by
McCarthy's need to stroke his own ego.

We certainly do not need to go back there.

I do have to the the GOP credit for motivating voters, unfortunately for the right it
didn't work in their favor this time. They turned the volume up loud enough that
people took notice, and some how enough saw through the rhetoric and political
fog that always blows in during elections.

Hey Achieve1: YOU ran away. YOU refused to give me your address and phone number (and a real name for that matter). And lest we forget - YOU told me YOU were drawing up a contract for me and you to sign to seal the deal on our bet. Then YOU bailed. Never to be heard from again. I have all the e-mails, Achieve1, if you wish me to post them, I will. They include the several I sent to you in which you never responded. Then YOU disappeared from my blog site altogether, only to re-appear NOW??? Give up my blog? No way. There was no bet, and YOU only have yourself to blame.

Now cry me a river. I have better things to do.

Excellent point made by Rush Limbaugh today: How do you run against Santa Claus?

Yeah no campaign bus can keep up with reindeer lol

The GOP is in trouble, it needs to wake up quickly. Thousands and thousands of
young and old conservatives are waiting on the sideline for the conservative party to
enter the 21st century. The world is moving forward. Everyone now knows good
people who are gay and are being discriminated against. I personally know many,
many people including myself who would quickly return to the conservative
movement if it would embraced human equality as well as women's rights. You
think that people don't understand the fiscal dilemma we face. Many do but they will
never return to vote for a party that doesn't embrace gay rights.

People are looking for a party that is inclusive of minorities, gays and women but is
fiscally conservative. That party doesn't exist. Until it does, more and more young
enlightened, educated voters will continue to vote Democrat. I feel bad voting for tax
and spend but am more proud to vote for equal rights for all americans.

The GOP must move in this direction. We need an inclusive party that can grow in
size rather than a far right leaning party that will continue to lose members as the
old guard pass away and the youth of america are driven away by bigoted right wing
50's mentality.

I disagree, WizerthnUUU. The GOP has made great strides in attracting (and hiring) minorities, gays, latinos, women, etc.). The problem is that the media refuses to acknowledge such, just as the media played a big role in Obama's win. By refusing to report on Benghazi AND Valerie Jarrett's talks with Iran (which just came to light), the media has decided to run interference for Obama. The very same media that refused to report on Mitt Romney's compassion and help towards those in dire straits and facing huge medical bills. The same media that refused to highlight the story of how Romney shut down Bain to go look for a missing girl - allowing employees to put up flyers and search for her (eventually leading to a happy outcome). None of this saw the light of day during the campaign. Bias? Yes. Face it. The accomplice media helped Obama win - by not reporting on all of Obama's failures and slamming Romney. Sad, but true. The media of today cannot be trusted. They are totally in the tank for whatever leftie is running. And too many stupid people just nod their heads and follow along. God help America in the days, weeks, and months to come.

Amy, Believe it or not, people aren't so "stupid", as you want to believe. When my
relative cannot marry and the republican president states that he favors an
amendment that would ensure she never can, that is not inclusive! When I know
people who have lived productive lives, contributing to society with loving families but
are here illegally and the republican president says he will do everything in his power
to get that person to self deport, that is not inclusive! To say that as a governor, he
hired some women and allowed them to get home in time to make supper for their
husbands, does not make the party inclusive. To say that he feels that it is
government's role to involve themselves in women's health issues is not inclusive.
The republican party needs to wake up quickly. I am watching a generation of fiscal
conservatives voting for a Democrat because of these issues. It is sad to see, but
even you cannot accept this truth. You keep denying this reality, it is slapping you in
the face. For how many elections will the conservatives live in this alternate reality
until they realize, it's not about the economy, it's not about taxes? It's about human
dignity and human rights. It is not the media creating this. I see it all around me
and so do thousands of others. It is their brothers, sons, sisters daughters nieces
and nephews. It's neighbors, people we work with, our friends and their friends.
It's so simple, but I realize now, you cannot see it. I just hope the republican party
can.

Achieve/jmann and friends...The difference between intelligent voting and unintelligent voting is you vs. me. The vast majority of those who voted for Obama did so because they had to or were told to by their porty. Most believed, from Obama’s own words and actions, that if they didn’t vote for Obama and his party, their cell phones, food stamps, and welfare checks would run out. Or at least no increase. That’s you jammn/archieve and friends. Neither of you have enough common sense to even understand what I just said. Or realize the long term damage to more entitlement spending. Nor will you understand smart voting. Obama spent us into oblivion. Ignorant voting knows nothing about this or the damage that follows. And Obama even lied and flipped-flopped on his deficit spending promises to prove further just how ignorant we are.

Smart voting: Exactly how much more Obama spending over his already $6 trillion wasted over the past 4 years is necessary to achieve 3% GDP growth (FYI, that’s what we need as a minimum to grow us out of the mess Obama put us in)? Obama’s $800+ billion appropriated in 09 was not enough nor was the additional $4-5 trillion from Obama’s Keynesian spending theory. The cruel reality is Obama’s government stimulus failed big time. Smart votes know this. And this too. Obama proposed a tax hike on job creators that totals about $450 billion over 10 yrs. Smart votes know Obama is spending $3.6 trillion a year. Or, unadjusted for inflation, $36 trillion over 10 yrs. How is that tax hike going to grow jobs and GDP? Smart voters know it will not help with our debt or jobs.

JHayseed anytime you want to debate a point and are man enough not to delete them when you are destroyed with the truth I will be more than happy to make you cry. Your just like Hemmer you edit and call them off topic and personal attacks and then you call names.... Your both losers Hemmer should own up and stop blogging she knows see lost the bet........ No honor with Repubs nothing but spineless cry babies.

OK achieve00...time to stop your crying like a child and debate my points. Sadly, you can't with any facts or honesty. You never could. But I will wait as I have before.

Talk all you want, President Obama will be in charge tomorrow, the next day, and
the next day, next year, and the next year.....

Eventually, your stupidity will be relegated to irrelevance.

BS...you’re such an intelligent guy with such intell comments! Why don't you step in for your pal. he seems to have a little chicken in him tonight

OK achieve00...time to stop your crying like a child and debate my points. Sadly, you can't with any facts or honesty. You never could. But I will wait as I have before.

"The same media that refused to highlight the story of how Romney shut down Bain to go look for a missing girl - allowing employees to put up flyers and search for her (eventually leading to a happy outcome). None of this saw the light of day during the campaign."
Ridiculous.... it was widely reported and it was fine story. Romney didnt loose because it wasnt turned into a movie.

If the GOP doesnt reinvent itself, itll go the way of Whigs. Dont be too quick to dismiss WizerthnUUU. Becoming more stident (if thats even possible) wont work.

OK we lost and it is hard to admit. But we will suck it up and move on. But I would
like to revisit two comments by Ref an WizerthenUUU. Both of you make it sound
like we lost in a landslide, we did not. Obama should have been beaten soundly
but we we're trying to be all things to all people instead of relaying a message of
true conservatism. Ref, you act like you have gotten screwed by collecting your
entitlement. When did anyone say that you we're about to lose it? It sounds like
your upset with life's circumstances and I don't know how your vote for Obama is
going to change the travails that you are enduring. I wish you well.

WizerthenUUU, just because society does not want to grant the benefits of a
married couple onto gay people, does not mean they cannot live together, enjoy
each other, or raise offspring of heterosexual's. Why is a gay person's happiness
reliant on whether or not they have the same benefits as a married couple? Don't
gay people split up too? If I'm single and divorced I do not get the same benefits as
a married person. We need to reward marriage if for nothing else then the fact that
it brings stability into our world as well as more human beings. Unfortunately, being
gay, does not allow for natural procreation. If your relative's only shot at happiness
was to change the benefit laws based on marriage then I would suggest they may
not have been all that happy to begin with. Stop mixing apples and oranges.

Our country is divided and has been for awhile but Obama was re-elected and now
the ball is in his court. He is either going to lead this country or go down as a total
failure. He cannot blame it on Bush anymore. He needs to man-up. But thru it all,
I still cannot help but believe that he woke up this morning and said " Oh Schmidt,
now what do I do?"

Jhayseed what is your point your rambling like Karl Rove over Ohio. Try giving some
structure to an actual view..,. BTW you don't know anything about me the fact that you
can't debate past a stereo type shows the lack of intelligence is on you buddy...

BTW Hemmer your excuse that I need to give you a written contract was my point exactly.
You and I made the bet.... You then tried to push to get give you personal information like
a stalker to try and have an excuse. You lost.... Keep blogging but you have been outed
as all talk no substance, you welched. Your bluff was called have some dignity

Achieve your nothing but scum. All Amy did was try verify who she was making the
bet with. We all saw what took place and you have cemented your self as the
biggest loser on all of the Lake Country blogs. You never had the guts to fulfill your
end of the bet and you coming back now after a razor thin win and trying to pull this
garbage just proves what dim-witted idiot you are.

Yert: Your response is very similar to saying that Blacks in 1960 should have been
happy just going to segregated schools and black colleges. Why is a black person's
happiness dependent on wanting to have the same benefits as white people? Putting
it this way, doesn't it now sound silly?? Are you saying straight people who cannot
procreate should be barred from Marriage? You are missing my point. Regardless of
your opinion, the fact is: Massive numbers of fiscal conservatives are leaving the
republican party because people within the party (maybe including you) believe gays
should not have equal rights for whatever reason they want to come up with. Young
educated people disagree and will not support this type of party. The party must
change it's stance or it will continue to shrink as it's old members sadly pass away.

WizerthenUUU, equal rights for what? No one is saying they cannot be with each
other! What rights do you want ? And please try to be a little more intellectually
honest then throwing race at me. It's childish!

"Why is a gay person's happiness
reliant on whether or not they have the same benefits as a married couple? "

Because the constitute a family unit. And btw, lesbian women can procreate just as well as hetro women. So a lesbian couple has the ability to achieve all that you say here: "We need to reward marriage if for nothing else then the fact that it brings stability into our world as well as more human beings."

Infact they can bring twice as many humans into the world as hetro couples can in the same time period.

Bonus points for all those extra "gifts from God"?

Yert49 It's very easy, the exact same rights that every other US citizen has. You
have the right to be married in the eyes of the law. A gay women or man does not
have that right. The federal government recognizes that all american citizens have
the legal right to enter into a marriage contract with the person they want to spend
their life with. This legal contract bestows many rights and obligations. This right is
not allowed to one group of US citizens. That group is therefore discriminated
against based on the sexual orientation that they were born with.

So because they are a family they are happy? Jmann, even a nice girl like you is
going to have a hard time relying on that kind of logic. Does conceived in love
come into that equation.

The hard right conservatives love to invoke patriotism as their justification for the beliefs they espouse. The Pledge of Allegiance states "liberty and justice for ALL". Doesn't "ALL" include the LGBT community as well?

The shining city is there,of course you have to crawl out from under that rock to
see...

achieve00...you are such a liberal liar and a liberal coward. You told me you would debate me anytime anywhere. Well, I gave you your chance:

Achieve/jmann and friends...The difference between intelligent voting and unintelligent voting is you vs. me. The vast majority of those who voted for Obama did so because they had to or were told to by their porty.

And you still can't debate this. And it's the same for those who voted for Obama. You have no clue as to the damage this guy and the dems have done or why you voted for Obama. Just as long as you get your free stuff.

Equal rights for married gay folk have nothing to do with the ability to have kids. When you go down to the courthouse, no one asks anyone about their fertility/virility. It also has nothing to do with love and happiness. It is a legal construct that would prevent this sort of bs to occur: http://ideas.time.com/2012/07/27/domestic-double-standard-what-about-sally-rides-partner/.

Its not the only example, and its not an isolated incident.

Again, I'll ask, what right are you looking for? Are you looking for a civil union? Do you want this union to be blessed by a church? Try to be specific, because I'm not sure you know what you want.

Hmm. Funny how this is just getting out now (post-election). It looks like Iran fired at a United States drone last week. The media is just reporting it now. They sat on this story. The event took place on November 1st.

Reaction from the White House? Washington "made a strong protest" to Tehran.
Wow! Maybe Obama & Co. are looking for a movie to blame this event on.

See: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/09/world/middleeast/pentagon-says-iran-fired-at-surveillance-drone-last-week.html?_r=0

A sign of things to come...

Just got this email...."The ignorant populace has spoken and I'm sure they have no clue what they have done . They will simply go to their bank as usual, get the money the govt. obtains from us to give to them and continue to praise this man who will diminish their freedoms and expand his power over them everyday. We will pay more for products, make less profit & get taxed at higher rates. The military will continue to get downsized, a move will be made to stifle free speech in many areas with the help of a liberal Supreme Court in the next 4 years. Gays will expand their influence & obtain more political positions of power, and religion will be attacked endlessly by the media & government. Erosion will deplete our economic power & influence & other countries will surpass us in many areas we used to dominate. The influence of the middle east will expand in this country now at an alarming rate & the courts will back that move. Sooner than some think, a move will be made to disarm this country so we are totally dependent on govt. & at their mercy. Remember this day friends, I seriously feel it's the beginning of the end of a once great country. I am sickened & sad, so I say goodnight & God Bless You All.

So Jim are you truly quitting blogging? If so, I thank God for a removal of one of the most opinionated and bigoted bloggers on this site. Maybe someone will arise that will be willing to actually have a discussion about issues, rather than having to listen to your impenetrable views. I'll toast your leaving with a shot of Don Julio, so much better than Patron.

Yert49: This is the 2nd time I posted this..... It's very easy, the exact same rights

Ref33...you should be happy I left. You never were man enough to stand up to my blog facts. Your comment is why I left liberalism Ref. I called it the "party of hate." You hated me because I exposed the lies and the hate filled, anti-American trash that drains from liberalism and why libs like you have no clue how to stand up and think for yourself. I saw you in the mirror when I was a Kool Aid drinking liberal. Liberalism is destroying this country. You're not smart enough or strong enough to admit the truth. The truth only gets in the way of a liberal like you.

BEST Pres ever!! So glad he was reelected... Ha ha Hemmer ..now quit whining

Tammy beat Tommy too !! Will be a great senator..

Gender Gap Costly: Women's Votes Decisive in Presidential and Senate Races



Eleanor Smeal, 11/08/12

President of The Feminist Majority

The problem the Republican Party has with women is deep and costly. Their attacks on women's rights all add up to a widely perceived Republican War on Women that significantly influenced the outcome of the election by creating impactful gender gaps in many key races.

"never man enough to stand up to my blog facts" What a crock! Jim you never participated in any kind of a give and take discussion here. The "facts" you presented here were those you cherry picked from biased sources and you never were willing to consider any alternative viewpoints. "You hated me". I don't hate anyone - never have, never will - with the possible exception of an ex son-in-law. You, however appear to hate anyone who has a different political opinion. "the truth only gets in the way of a liberal like you" The truth is Jim, that bigoted, opinionated, obnoxious individuals like you never see the truth. You only accept the BS that comes from the sources you deem as truthful, sources like FOX "News", an entertainment channel that blew smoke up Romney's butt so he actually was shocked when he lost.

"You hated me ..."
No one hated you, Jim. We just had issues with your inability to actually discuss an issue in a reasonable manner.

"...because I exposed the lies ..."
I mustve missed that one.

"...and the hate filled, ..."
Hey... YOU were the one who's whole blog for years on end was about demonizing some vague "other" who thought differently than you.


BTW, you're parting letter prophecies were a nice collection from http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2012/10/chart-obama-conspiracy-theories

"I saw you in the mirror when I was a Kool Aid drinking liberal."
You saw a intollerant angry person looking back at you?? Maybe it wasnt the ideology at fault.

Ref33...cherry picked? Does that mean my facts were correct but I only used the ones I liked? Talk about liberal lies!! You just proved me right again ref! You never could defend the truth and my facts. Just like here!

I also proved, through not one of you libs taking on my bet, that I never once ever removed anyone who posted on my blog unless they used filth or didn't wish to debate the blog facts. I was told by this ultra-lib newspaper that I better not reject any post unless they violate the LCR rules. Never once did this liberal paper reprimand me or give me a warning. You are a liberal liar ref. Just proved it again.

When I used quotes to frame the word facts, I was being sarcastic and cynical. Should have used *facts* instead but you still wouldn't get it.

Ref...now open up your mouth and stick the other foot in it. You proved my facts and point again!

Thanks ref

"You proved my facts and point again!"
Yes siree bob! You did exactly that, Jim. Finally, after all these years, you finally and obviously got him good !!!!
