• INSINUATING VIOLENCE

Did you ever notice that big talkers are usually real cowards?

I have grown more and more disgusted with people (esp lately on Facebook) who declare their love of country and the Second Amendment by letting everyone know that they have their arsenal of weapons and a huge cache of ammunition -- and by God, they're read to use it.

I recall one particularly crazy person saying that we have come to a point where there is 'only one thing left to do!' Of course, he didn't say what the one thing was, but since the health care monstrosity was going to be force upon the American people, there was no 'only one thing left to do.'

Of course, I understand the frustration many Americans feel. President Barack Obama isn't just making some mistakes that leftists and socialist-democrats (intentional small case 'd') are taking advantage of.

I believe that Mr. Obama really does hate this country, insofar as what he has been trained to believe. Mr. Obama is the ultimate realization of a thorough indoctrination. He is the clumination of decades of communists, working behind the scenes, waiting for the perfect storm of American voter ignorance to change this country forever into socialist mediocrity.

As I discussed on my show on Friday (April 9th thejimmyzshow.com), Americans opened the door for this kind of godless attack on our Constitution by spending years avoiding our country's deep religious heritage. And that's a big issue for another column.

So, clearly, the country is in deep trouble, and Mr. Obama, along with the likes of the most compliant, cowardly band of spineless democrat losers we have ever seen in power in DC, is working as hard as he can for George Soros and Bill Ayers to turn us into another European styled socialist-democracy (if there is such a thing). And if he succeeds, the entire world will succumb to economic and moral disaster.

We really are the world's last, great hope.

I get that. I understand the desperation that many people feel. But when someone like Mr. 'Nothing Left to Do' won't say what he means, and mean what he says, he's really said nothing. I pushed of course - is it blood in the streets you are working toward? Is it a full blown war and attack on Washington DC you want?

Because if you're not willing to say it on Facebook, I sincerely doubt you're willing to pick up a gun and run out of the garage and take on the FBI when they come calling.

There are a number of people I've run into online that have a lot to say in attempting to defend the actions of the Hutaree Militia in Michigan. Recall, these were the folks who were arrested for conspiracy to kill not one but many cops, in a plan as evil as it was devious.

Imagine: There are Americans who are willing to defend those who (may have) conspired to kill cops, all because they distrust Barack Obama and the democrats so. I gotta tell you: I'd feel no safer with the Hutaree running the streets of America than I would UN troops.

So no, now is not the time to insinuate violence, or argue for violence, against the regime of Barack Obama. What it is time to do is work your asses off getting as many Republicans and Conservatives elected on November 2nd, 2010. Let's see what things look like on November 3rd, and talk again.

• BARNEY FRANK'S HR 3017

This bill was introduced in June 2009 by Sen. Barney Frank, D-MA. The following is a summary of this bill.

6/24/2009--Introduced.

Employment Non-Discrimination Act of 2009 - Prohibits employment discrimination on the basis of actual or perceived sexual orientation or gender identity by covered entities (employers, employment agencies, labor organizations, or joint labor-management committees). Prohibits preferential treatment or quotas. Allows only disparate treatment claims. Prohibits related retaliation. Makes this Act inapplicable to:

(1) religious organizations; and (2) the relationship between the United States and members of the Armed Forces. Declares that this Act does not repeal or modify any federal, state, territorial, or local law creating a special right or preference concerning employment for a veteran.

Provides for the construction of this Act regarding:

(1) enforcement by employers of rules and policies; (2) sexual harassment; (3) certain shared facilities such as showers or dressing facilities; (4) construction of new or additional facilities; (5) dress and grooming standards; and (6) provision of employee benefits to married vs. unmarried couples.

Declares that, in this Act, "married" refers to a legal union between one man and one woman. Prohibits the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) from collecting statistics from covered entities on actual or perceived sexual orientation or gender identity or compelling the collection by covered entities of such statistics. Provides for enforcement, including giving the EEOC, the Librarian of Congress, the Attorney General, and U.S. courts the same enforcement powers as they have under specified provisions of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Government Employee Rights Act of 1991, and other specified laws. Allows actions and proceedings, subject to exception, against the United States and the states.

GOP Congressman John Kline (R-MN) warns us that HR 3017 creates an entirely new protected class that is vaguely defined and often subjective. "The legislation extends protections based on – quote – 'perceived' sexual orientation," Kline said. "These vaguely defined terms would result in an explosion of litigation," costing millions in lawyers fees, paid by Christian Business Owners to homosexual complainers.

The worst part of Frank's new bill, without exaggeration or embellishment, is that it specifically forces all business owners, including Christians, to open their ladies bathrooms to cross-dressing men, even before they undergo sex-change operations. No kidding. Just read the bill, here:

HR 3017 Section 8.A.3. "CERTAIN SHARED FACILITIES- Nothing in this Act shall be construed to establish an unlawful employment practice based on actual or perceived gender identity due to the denial of access to shared shower or dressing facilities in which being seen unclothed is unavoidable, provided that the employer provides reasonable access to adequate facilities that are not inconsistent with the employee's gender identity as established with the employer at the time of employment or upon notification to the employer that the employee has undergone or is undergoing gender transition, whichever is later." That's a direct quote from Barney Frank's proposed new HR 3017 law.

Homosexual Congressman Barney Frank (D-MA) already has 198 co-sponsors, and will press for a vote THIS MONTH. Below are the Ohio (D) Congress persons who signed on:

John Boccieri OH-16; Steve Driehaus OH-1; Marcia Fudge OH-11; Mary Jo Kilroy OH-15; Dennis (are we surprised) Kucinich OH-10; Tim Ryan OH-17; Betty Sutton OH-13.

There is another House bill HR 2981 and the Senate version is S1584 with Senator Sherrod Brown.

• TYRA BANKS AND GIRLS GONE WILD

Occasionally I flip channels and see a few minutes of the Tyra Banks show. She has from time to time had programs about women who were abused by men, or assaulted, or other such tragedies. She has always struck me as somewhat sincere – as opposed to Maury Povich who just uses people in such a disgusting manner I can’t imagine how he sleeps at night.

That being said, today I was moving through channels looking for the afternoon MASH rerun (I still enjoy MASH, especially the original cast in the first 3 seasons), and I paused on Tyra’s program. She has that scumbag “Girls Gone Wild” character on, talking about how much fun he’s having living his life. They show shots of the audience members, all young women, smiling and happy about listening to this putz.

Now I am no fan of Hugh Hefner. He’s an extraordinary dirtball. I can’t stand the man. He’s bad enough but when they put him on TV as if he’s some wonderful celebrity, I want to puke. But this guy from GGW – he’s a freakin’ demon. He smiles, he’s handsome enough I suppose, and he’s got charisma. Tyra Banks says something like, “hey, no one forces any of the women to take off their clothes – I don’t see the problem here!”

(By the way, I don’t know the man’s name, and I was going to look it up, but I thought it was cool that I don’t know his name and decided not to bother.)

Yeah, whoopee Tyra! This is all in good fun! Take off your bra! Ooh la lah! Show us your coochie! I mean, I haven’t seen one of those films but I can imagine. I’m no choir boy, but that kind of thing is such a turn off. Get ‘em drunk, and hand ‘em some money. There it is, “sexy”. HARDLY! And Tyra has now exposed herself. She’s playing along for the money having him on TV gets her. Ratings. Big ratings. And she gets to be the cool ‘hot chick’ who doesn’t mind this clown and his planes and homes and cars and more money than God – all obtained by exploiting young women.

Sure, they’re all of age, and they get paid and free booze and they make their decisions using their own free will ... after they’re hammered.

Tyra Banks should be ashamed of herself.

• MY OPEN LETTER TO ANDREW BREITBART

Dear Mr. Breitbart:

I have immense respect for Breitbart.com and all the Big websites associated with it. I refer to material on these sites often in doing my online radio program (always referenced and linked in the show notes).

Now, I have to ask why so many conservatives are willing to look past Sarah Palin's stumping for John McCain when there is a real conservative in the race! This is really disturbing to me, and gets us right back to the heart of the problem with the GOP and politics in America. When do we start standing up against Republicans in Name Only, like Mr. McCain?

And when do we demand that people like Ms. Palin stand up for the principles that she espouses? She cannot be both for the Tea Party AND for John McCain - and yet there she is, in one weekend - doing the impossible.

I've been disgusted all weekend. All the cheering tells me that conservatives STILL JUST DO NOT GET IT.

Respectfully,
Jimmy Z

• TOM CAMPBELL FOR SENATOR

• I Will Be Happy if Pelosi Uses the Slaughter Shenanigan

By Jimmy Z

Let them act out in such a fashion as to be damned by history.

I am still hoping and believing that the leftists in office in Washington DC will not be able to get the votes to pass their healthcare wet dream. We've put up a wonderful fight - and we're not done yet. No country has fought harder to prevent socialized medicine.

But in light of the very real possibility that Pelosi and the democrats (purposely not capitalized) will use the Slaughter Shenanigan -- aka 'Deem and Scheme' -- I have said to a few people who are understandably freaking out, 'good! I'm glad they're going to use that tactic!'

Of course, their responses have been shock. 'Huh? Why would you be happy?'

Here is what I think: If the democrats are going to force this atrocity on the American people by hook or by crook, let them do it with more hooks and by more crooks than ever in our history. Let them act out in such a fashion as to be damned by history.

I want them to use every trick. I want them to conspire behind closed doors over and over and over again. I want them to continue to show Americans who the leftists are, and how deep their level of deceit is. I want our children and grandchildren to be studying in school the political horror of 2010.

And I want our progeny to look back and be amazed that our country was able to survive.

Should our country have to face passage of this bill through some kind of chicanery, it serves us well. We will fight it with our State Constitutions. We will fight it in court. We will demand our Republican majority in the House, come 2011, not fund the bill. We will work to repeal the bill, and we will not give up.

Our descendants will learn of many times this country was on the edge of disaster; the moments when The United States of America was thought to be finished. We defeated our enemies, and we beat the odds.

The Revolutionary War provided a very long shot, yet here we are. The Civil War was a bloody and horrible war. Many people believed that our country would not survive, yet here we are. There were times during World War II that it looked like we would lose the war. But we persevered and here we are. During the Great Depression I am sure some folks thought, 'well, this is it. Here is the end of the line.'

We have seen stunning, dreadful times in our past. And we keep pushing through, and we patriots do not give up. Between our love of country and our faith in God, we do what must be done to protect the Constitution.

We are fighting our President for the second time in our history. Last time, it was imperative that the President won. This time, it is essential that the President lose.

Just because these leftists -- Pelosi, Reid, Obama and nearly all of the democrats in office -- may use some unconstitutional maneuver to pass the Health Care System Take Over bill (I mean, let's call it what it is, shall we?), we will not stop fighting it.

We have a lot of good people in office who are gearing up to take action right away. Come November 2nd, we will have even more amazing conservatives and Republicans ready to battle against this most unconstitutional legislation.

We have truth on our side. Over and over again, we hear democrats on television and radio, lying outright to the American people, and to themselves. They seem to believe that if this bill passes, the American people are going to love it. They insist that the American people do not care at all about the process used to pass the Take Over.

They actually believe that our Constitution does not mean anything to the American people. Imagine!

So let them use every trick they can think up. Let them provide all of the ammunition we will use against them in the coming elections.

They will find out on November 2nd how wrong they are.



Oh, and one more thing: Many people like to talk about the 'democracies' throughout history that lasted about 200 years, and say that we've had a good run; that our time is about up. Rubbish. We are not just another democracy among democracies in the history of this planet.

We are The United States of America. We are a democratic Republic. We are used to bucking trends. We are a people who do not lie back and accept what we don't like. We have the Constitutional authority to replace this government with leaders who will protect that Constitution.

We are not done.

• HOW BAD HAS IT GOTTEN FOR OBAMA?

Today's Rasmussen approval index is -17. It has bounced around from -12 to -21 over the last month or so, so that puts it right about in the mean area of where it has been.

Today's number means that the among the two poles of voter passion, those who adore Obama and those who loathe him, the loathes have it by more than 2 touchdowns. Bad news for Obama's party this fall because the passionate voter shows up in an off year election. See Virginia, New Jersey and Massachusetts.

To really understand the breadth and scope of how far Obama has fallen, one needs compare this number, and it's internals, to the stratospheric numbers he boasted upon taking office.

The current number of -17 is not his record low so far, but we can start there anyway. On a Rasmussen poll taken on January 24th, 2009, that number stood at what will remain the high water mark of his presidency: +26.

So, Obama's net Approval index has fallen an astonishing 43 points in barely over 13 months. If he continues at that rate, he will be at -60 by the spring of next year when he could very well be facing a Republican congress.

Looking at the poll internals tells an even more alarming tale.

Among Men, Obama is at -24 compared to a poll of February 19th, 2009 that put him at +4. Among Women, Obama is at -10 now, while that same poll from February of last year put him at +21. You heard right, Obama has dropped faster among women since taking office (down 31 points net) than among men (28).

Among unaffiliated voters, the news is even
more grim. Obama has fallen from +12 when
he was inaugurated to a mind blowing -27.
That is a 39 point plummet.

Among Republicans, Obama started out with a cool -12, that number has now sunk to -68. With that level on Republican enmity now, can Obama even hope to repeat his wins in Virginia, North Carolina, Florida, Ohio, Indiana, Colorado and Nevada? How about New Hampshire, Iowa and New Mexico?

George W Bush won each of those 10 states at least once. He won the first 7 twice. Take the two time Bush states away from him and he loses the election.

But Obama isn't merely going to be giving back Red states, or even just Red and Purple states. Obama is in trouble all over the electoral map and with every constituency.

In the current poll, Obama is +35 among Democrats. That sounds good until you realize that he was +72 on his third day of office. With a 37 swoon among his own party, how can he hope to hold on to states like Pennsylvania, Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin where Gore and Kerry won by razor thin margins?

Among Unaffiliated voters, the news is even more grim. Obama has fallen from +12 when he was inaugurated to a mind blowing -27. That is a 39 point plummet.

So, you have volcanic opposition from Republicans, visceral opposition from unaffiliated voters and only tepid support from his own ranks. This has created a perfect electoral storm for 2012.

Not only is Obama finished in Florida, North Carolina, Virginia, Indiana, Ohio, New Hampshire, Iowa, Nevada, Colorado, and New Mexico -- the Bush states . . .

Not only is he toast in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota, the near-miss states . . .

That would be bad enough . . .

Obama's party has just suffered two devastating defeats in states unthinkable a year ago: New Jersey and Massachusetts. Meanwhile, high profile Democratic Senators are in deep trouble in other solid blue states such as Delaware, New York and California and even, Obama's own state of Illinois.

With the threat of energized Republicans and Independents showing up in swarms while demoralized Democrats stay home, the number of states where Obama is not at least vulnerable will probably number in the low single digits. Many people are expected a historic bloodbath in this November's elections- and I think they are right.

Yet, if current trends continue, 2012 could be an electoral wipe out of Reagan/Mondale proportions.

• 2012 ELECTORAL COLLEGE MAP

As it sits today -- and remember -- a year ago, this would have been unthinkable. Here is SonlitKnight's analysis. --Jz


My analysis of the Electoral college map, based on Obama's current approvals tell me that this is the current picture.

RED STATES

39 States totaling 360 Electoral votes (color is how they went in 2008) --

Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Iowa, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming

BLUE STATES

8 States plus Washington D.C. Totaling 146 Electoral votes.

California, Delaware, District of Columbia, Hawaii, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, New York and Rhode Island

BATTLEGROUND STATES

3 States totaling 32 Electoral votes

Connecticut, Minnesota and New Jersey


So, if the election were today, Obama loses by between 360-178 to 392-146.

• MY BOUT WITH TRUTHER-ISM

Well, today I had to block a good friend via email because she admitted to being a truther. My friend defended the zany way Debra Medina squirmed and evaded when Glenn Beck asked her point blank: "Do you believe the government was in any way involved in the bringing down of the World Trade Centers on 9/11?"

This truther crappola is getting really, really, REALLY out of control. I think it is safe to say, from what we know about the tactics employed by followers of Islam, that they had a lot to do with this damnable lie -- the truther conspiracy. I believe it is also possible that the American Left joined in, because ultimately it would lead to having conservatives buy into this bull@$%! hook, line and sinker.

And so they have.

I have had a few folks tell me that they did not believe conservatives were buying into this; that it is mostly liberals. Although I do not know the actual numbers, it is abundantly clear that more and more and more of your fellow conservatives -- people who believe in most of the same values and principles that we share, and our goal to return this country to it's rightful owners, 'we the people' -- are beginning to jump on board with a number of kooky fringe groups, including but not limited to:

• The 'don't pay your taxes' crowd

• The Anarchy crowd

• The 'Obama is going to call for martial law' crowd

• The 'free militia' crowd

• The 'Obama is going to cancel elections in 2010 and 2012' crowd

• The 'Truther' crowd

• The 'Conservatives will be boarding trains and sent to FEMA camps' crowd

• The 'Sky is Falling' Chicken Little crowd

(I am not including those who are concerned about Obama's birthplace because, although I do not place that issue near the top of what we should be focusing on right here, right now, I would like to know where the man was born).

If we are not careful, the truther/FEMA/militia bunch
is going to attach itself to us, and the rest of middle
America -- the people whose votes we need -- will run
far and fast from us, and vote for liberal democrats

I have taken a lot of time, time I will never get back, debating and discussing and trying to help some truthers see the light. And now, after a few weeks of this fruitless pursuit, I have had to make a decision tonight, and I have decided to give up.

We have too much to do, and we must win these elections, so I am done dealing with you truthers. You want to believe your country attacked itself? Go for it, but stay the hell away from me and you better stay even further away from the conservative movement.

My friends, we must separate ourselves from these right wing fringe crazies. We don't have time to help them out of their hallucinations. We have our work to do.

And I cannot stress this enough: If we are not careful, the truther/FEMA/militia bunch is going to attach itself to us, and the rest of middle America -- the people whose votes we need -- will run far and fast from us, and vote for liberal democrats.

So I am encouraging you to do the same. If you haven't done so already (I admit it; I was told this was the thing to do and I was stubborn and thought I could wake a few truthers up. I cannot be done), I urge you to block every truther that pops up, one at a time, and treat them like lepers.

Keep a safe distance and do not entertain any of them. Make certain that the tea party movement for conservative America stays away from trutherism and all the rest of the people I listed. Focus on Nov. 2, 2010, and let's get some conservatives elected.

And to those of you who are truthers, etc, all I can say is - I am sorry you are so deluded, but it is not my job to fix you. See a shrink before it is too late.

Best Regards,
Jz
