I have a lot to get off my chest lately and not enough outlets to do so, so I created a blog. Since only recently becoming enthralled in politics, which I once thought was the most boring thing ever invented, I can't seem to shut up about it all now. So here is everything I want to shout to the world at this current time.
Let's start with a woman named Gianna Jessen. She survived an abortion 31 years ago and is an "unashamable christian" as she calls herself. She is a pro-life advocate who was told she would never walk and now runs marathons. Now her mother was over 7 months pregnant when she had a saline abortion, which burns the infant, and this procedure lasted 18 hours. She miraculously survives this, is delivered premature but alive and fighting to continue to live and is given healthcare. She is "blessed with the gift of cerebral palsy" due to the experience and doesn't mind to tell anyone who will listen that if Obama had it his way, she wouldn't be here. Why is that, you ask? Because whether a baby surviving an abortion should be given healthcare to sustain life, even if for a short period of time, has somehow become debatable. Know who voted not to given a child born alive healthcare?
Obama did.
Four times!!!!
So what happens to these babies that survive? They are taken to rooms in the abortion clinic with soiled linens and set on tables and shelves and left to die, no matter how long it eventually takes. Shocked? So was I. Find it hard to believe? Check it out yourself.

Anyone out there sweating the decline in the economy? I have. My husband was laid off on the day we had our son earlier this year. The second time he has been laid off since we started dating over 2 years ago. Have we ever been in a position to purchase a house in this time? No, we have not. We would love to. But now the banks are tightening up, and there are talks about credit drying up. My husband finally got a good job that pays enough money to support his family, allow me to stay home to take care of my children and my house, and even start saving for a down payment on a house, and for the first time, health insurance for the entire family. Now we are not greedy people. We don't have much, but we also don't want for much. We are both very content to have healthy children, a roof over our heads, food on the table, and clothes to wear. We don't need a big house or a luxury vehicle, and don't care that we don't have them now, or if we have them later, for that matter. We are quite modest, and all we want is a modest house one day. One day when we are financially secure to pay for it. Which brings me to this point...
Ever hear of ACORN? I hadn't until last week but I have been boning up on what they are. They are The Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now. Wait? Community Organizer. Wasn't Barack Obama a Community Organizer? What is that anyways? Does he have block parties and go singing christmas carols with his neighbors to all of his community? I bet he organized it. Brought it all together for everybody. Maybe even had a park put in a couple blocks away for the kids to play. You know, helping the community organize such things.
Wrong. Here are some facts on ACORN. They fight for low-income families, with good or bad credit, to be able to buy a home. Sounds good. Seeing as how I will be on the market for a house when we save up for our down payment in 2 or 3 years, this is sounding pretty good. Hey, maybe they can help me. With the way things are going it may be a difficult process to get a mortgage. But a large part of our housing crisis can be directly attributed to ACORN. How?
"The truth is that the root cause of the mortgage mess is found in Washington and with organizations like ACORN which have long pushed and used extortion tactics to force banks to make bad loans. All the while, collecting millions of dollars in grants and “donations” from banks that paid them protection money." (The Virginian)
"ACORN helps illegal immigrants get mortgages using “under-the-table” (untaxed and unreported) money as income. It encourages people to buy homes with no money down, who have no credit rating or documented income. It encourages people to take out interest-only loans, 40 year non-amortized loans (which means that you can reach the end of a 40 year mortgage and still owe money), and reverse mortgages. This is not responsible credit counseling. This puts ACORN on the side of the most abusive lending practices in the country, right up there with payday loans. The difference is that payday lenders are not recipients of taxpayer money." (The Virginian)
ACORN takes in 40% of its revenues from taxpayers. Obama works as their legal representative.
Not enough? Read on.
Last July, ACORN settled the largest case of voter fraud in the history of Washington State. Acorn submitted nearly 2,000 bogus voter registration forms. "Leon Spinks","Fruto Boy Crispila", and "Frekkie Magoal" were out voting democrat. Bless their little non-existant hearts.
There's more.
This has happened in 14 other states. All tied to ACORN. In Ohio in 2004, a worker for one affiliate was given crack cocaine in exchange for fraudulent registrations that included underage voters, dead voters and pillars of the community named Mary Poppins, Dick Tracy and Jive Turkey.
Yesterday Ohio was making it possible for the public to register to vote and cast their absentee ballot all in one day. Do I think ACORN may have had something going on there yesterday?
Well, I wouldn't be surprised.
Guess how much money Barack Obama has recently given to ACORN. Come on. Guess.
$800,000. He hid it. Not well enough.
Let's buy those votes. Illegally. Yay for democracy!
