Hope and Change - Mantra of the Oppressors

Guest blogger Val Prieto wrote the wonderful (but scary) article "Prevent or Lament" at Michelle Malkin.
Val's father is Cuban and saw the revolution in which Castro assumed (isn't that an understatement!) dictatorship of what was once an island paradise.  The article shares a conversation he had with his dad.  Blog commenter TooMuchTime relates what is a common Cuban sentiment:

I read on a blog somewhere, before the 2008 election, the blogger was dining in Miami and noticed an older Cuban couple. When he spoke with them they told him they came to the U.S. in 1960.
The blogger said, “So you got out just after Castro took over.”
Without missing a beat, the Cuban man said, “Yes. We’ve seen hope and change before.”

Fidel Castro is responsible for tens of thousands of deaths. Go to that link, read the  numbers, then scroll down and look at the pictures some of the commenters have posted.  Then go to THIS LINK and scroll through the many articles posted there.  The brutality of Castro is very evident.  Don't think that President Obama is not of the same mindset. 

Be warned people! Obama and all the other Socialist Democrats do not have your best interest in mind. They have THEIRS. Don't follow them off this cliff.

They Really Did It...

I feel like I did the night Barack Barry Obama was elected president.  I do not want to get up and watch the gloat-fests in the mainstream media.  Losing the health care fight is a very depressing defeat in the short-term, but payback will be sweet.  

I will join in the efforts to throw every Democrat bum out of office who is up for election this November.  First on my hit list?  Bart Stupak Sellout.

The founding fathers of the United States of America pledged their lives, their fortunes, their sacred honor.  Should we do less than that?  How much does our liberty mean to us?

I don't want to think that my loved ones who have sacrificed their lives, spilled their blood for this country, did so in vain.  I don't want to go through life knowing that a bunch of radical Marxists spit on the graves of my dear ones to make this country into another Marxist paradise.

Anyone who thinks Marxism is so wonderful ought to go read blogs that come out of Cuba.  It is easy to see that no revolutionary promises every come to fruition.  They are lies given in order to manipulate the populace.  The USA is a nation filled with people who think that somehow they have a right to "something for nothing".

What a sham.  As Margaret Thatcher (former Prime Minister of Britain) is credited with saying, "Sooner or later you run out of other people's money".

No one has the right to put their hands in MY pocket and take the fruits of MY labor for someone else's wish list.

I will be agitating politically to keep all Alinsky-ite hands out of my pockets.
