Sending Donnelly Home to Bonanza

(Video re-uploaded replacing corrupted file)
Joe Donnelly, the Liberal Democrat from South Bend, nearby Chicago and Obama's home, has repeatedly made claims that he is "moderate" or "middle of the road" Democrat. The problem with that statement is that it isn't true.

And in one way, we can understand that because when the question of the Constitution came up, he said he leaves that to the experts. The problem is, he took an oath to defend and preserve it. To abide by it, and yet he votes for bills that are not covered under the the provisions of the Constitution. The problem with the Constitution isn't it, the problem is Joe Donnelly.

When asked how he would vote on Obamacare in relation to abortion he claims he consistently opposed abortion and government funded abortion. And yet, he voted for it.

Donnelly voted for Obamacare, when even his constituents knew it was a death knell for Medicare, and healthcare in general, plus a huge deficit problem. But he still voted for it.

Donnelly denies Obamacare will pay for healthcare for illegal aliens, even though his constituents knew it would. He was wrong, and still voted for it anyway.

Donnelly claimed you could keep your heathcare plan, but you can't. And even so, he voted for Obamacare. In effect,  he gave your healthcare plan to Obama and the government.

Joe Donnelly has been supporting government funding of wind energy from taxpayer money, an un-Constitutional use. Taking taxes to promote a business is not included in the powers granted in the Constitution. And does he have any clue about whether it is a good idea? No.

And Joe Donnelly fully approved the Stimulus bill, of which funding nonsense like the City Bus windmills in Lafayette. Sure, one might think they were neat and cool, but will they every pay off like he promised? No. Not ever. Donnelly wasted more money on this one small (by comparison to the enormous size of the entire Stimulus bill)....more that the amount he claims Mourdock "wasted" defending over 200 year of contract law, teachers and police pensions, and stability of the bond markets. The thing is, you are not wasting anything defending what is right, but you sure can on things not Constitutional.

A fortune Blown away, DC Donnelly Wind Machine II

The truth is that Joe Donnelly says one thing in Indiana, giving a far different impression that the actual voting he does in Washington DC where he follows the Pelosi, Reid, and Obama mantra line for line.

Sure, there is more. But at this point can't we at least ask Joe Donnelly to do the one thing he said he wanted to do? Yes, he wants to go home and watch Bonanza. From what we have seen above, that might be the only thing he can get right. So let's help Joe Donnelly and send him home to watch Bonanza!!! Vote Richard Mourdock and retire Joe Donnelly.

Listen to Joe himself express his desire for just that: (WMV videos don't play on iPhone)

The RATM Chronicles – Vol 2

Volume 1 is located here: The RATM Chronicles - Vol 1

First let's go back and review some background. The founders met together many times, wrote many well reasoned papers (the Federalist Papers etc.), and debated in order to create a new republic, of the people and for the people. One essence of this process was the creation of a “civil society”, one where people were well behaved toward each other. After all, that was the basis of their entire discussion. These gentlemen were well educated, and civil toward each other, even while having disagreements on various points. And overall, they were quite successful in doing so.

The definition of “civility” can be found online here: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/civility

Noun	1.	civility - formal or perfunctory politeness good manners, courtesy - a courteous manner incivility - deliberate discourtesy
	2.	civility - the act of showing regard for others politeness action - something done (usually as opposed to something said); "there were stories of murders and other unnatural actions" courtesy - a courteous or respectful or considerate act deference, respect - a courteous expression (by word or deed) of esteem or regard; "his deference to her wishes was very flattering"; "be sure to give my respects to the dean" devoir - formal expression of respect

So in reviewing the recent posts

The RATM Chronicles - Vol 1

In our last examination of twitter feeds, we discussed the falsity expressed by @mattcsantor and others on the topic of "My way or the Highway". This time lets change direction a bit and examine pseudo personalities on the Socialist / Communist / Leftist / Democrat side.

So this time lets look at the twitter handles @RATM4 and @MTARRATM. These seem somewhat odd, and both are all caps, also odd. The second is just RATM backwards plus RATM. So they might actually be the same person, just with two handles. Or perhaps a teammate co-conspirator.

 Since google and such search engines can be quite useful, a search for RATM shows that https://www.google.com/search?q=ratm 
RATM is an acronym for the heavy metal band "Rage Against The Machine". So now the all caps makes sense. And since @RATM is the twitter handle for the band, it was already taken. Thus @RATM4 had to be used by the individual mentioned above.

OK, so what is the band "Rage Against The Machine" all about? Reading some of the web pages from the search we find that they are radical, violent, profane in language, anti-Establishment (meaning anti-Capitalist, anti-Western culture, etc),  and appear from the descriptions to be Marxist, Communist, Socialist, etc. in their associations, lyrics, and actions.

My Way or the Highway

Because of several references to posts on this blog on twitter, some time will be spent on some topics recently found there.

And perhaps the most recent are the tweets on who in the Indiana Senate race is, and is not able to work with and compromise with the “other side” of the aisle.

For instance, here is a tweet by @mattcantor:

If we correctly understand the background behind this challenge we can then see how it could be true. The background in question is just what is the nature of the Democrats in Congress?
