LET’S TALK ABOUT COMPLYING WITH TRADITION, AND WHY IT SHOULDN'T MATTER!
Trump broke with tradition and refused to release his tax
returns citing an ongoing IRS audit but pledged the tax documents would be
released upon completion. But Conway made clear Sunday in an interview outside the
White House the taxes won’t be forthcoming at any point in the new
Administration.
“We litigated this all through the election. People didn’t
care. They voted for him, and let me make this very clear: most Americans are
very focused on what their tax returns will look like while President Trump is
in office, not what his look like.”
Breaking from tradition seems to be the new normal! Conservatives aren't conservative anymore, Democrats are now Socialists, and when
it comes to tolerance, understanding and bothering to listen to all sides of
the story, they have all missed the boat! Obama’s tradition of ignoring the
constitution, America’s rule of law, and the belief that America is
exceptional, has spread an intolerant generation of anarchist who
believe that free speech means wearing a mask, getting paid by outside interests
to interrupt destroy public property, and physically harm anyone that doesn’t
believe in what they are preaching!
If we can take a minute to look at the state of politics in
America, and the ‘Swamp’ that has decided it was OK to undermine tradition by
not following our founding fathers Constitution, the tradition of our President
being a ‘Natural Born Citizen,’ the tradition of our cities not hiding illegal
immigrants and refugees from the rule of law, the tradition of our mainstream
media being fair and balanced and reporting on the truth so that Americans can
make informed decisions when electing the officials that will be leading
America into the future, the tradition of defending the rights of all citizens
without using political correctness and implicit bias to divide, the tradition
of protecting America’s Christian symbols and holidays, the tradition of having
one rule of law outlined by the Constitution and not one radically opposed to
Christianity and the rights of women, the tradition of having American values
be taught in our public schools and universities, and the tradition of both
political parties doing what’s best for America under the flag of
bipartisanship, and not themselves, their greed, and their egos!
Tradition is just a little too convenient to base an
argument on when excusing someone of breaking the laws of the land, and most
definitely doesn’t excuse the acceptance of radical Islamic terrorism being
injected into our culture and Christian based traditions? Do todays America
immigration laws reflect anything different that would make them unenforceable,
adhered to, and obeyed?
The Administration of Barack Obama may be struggling with
strengthening the economy, controlling the damage of Obamacare, remaining an
influential player in international politics, and a number of other crucial
issues, but it has at least found one area in which the President excels –
denigrating the country he leads.
Obama’s latest display of the contempt he harbors for the
country and history of America, came last week at the National Prayer
Breakfast, when the President gratuitously accused Americans of “get[ting] on
our high horse” when criticizing those countries or non-state actors (such as
ISIS) that commit horrendous acts of violence in the name of religion. Obama
used the examples of “slavery and Jim Crow” to justify his point that America
is no better than any others – including by implication ISIS – when it comes to
committing violent acts in the name of religion.
The few remaining liberal apologists for this
Administration, such as commentators at MSNBC, tried to rationalize Obama’s
remarks by characterizing them as an “accurate” history lesson taken out of
context by the “Right.” However, it is exactly the current global context in
which the comments were made, amplified by the hubris with which they were
delivered, that makes them so damaging to us in the real world.
Today, the world is gripped at the throat by a “religious”
organization that uses a level of savagery not seen since the Medieval era to
attempt to terrorize and intimidate its enemies, including the United States.
Yet Obama, speaking in his capacity as the President of the United States,
found it appropriate and timely to liken such tactics – which include the
burning-alive of captives, throwing homosexuals off buildings, stoning women,
decapitating hostages on video, and slaughtering minority groups -- to
America’s long-ago outlawed Jim Crow laws and slavery.
What made Obama’s remarks particularly disturbing was that
they came at the same time as Jordan’s King Abdullah II was responding to the
gruesome murder of a Jordanian pilot by ISIS. As Obama took the occasion of the
National Prayer Breakfast verbally to bring the United States down to the level
of ISIS to make his point of equality-of-blame, Abdullah was publicly extolling
his country’s superiority over the savagery of ISIS, and vowing to fight the
group until his country’s military was “out of fuel and bullets.”
The juxtaposition of Abdullah’s comments and those of Obama
illustrate more than just the difference between two leadership styles. In
Abdullah, we see a head of state who is confident in his decisions and who
takes pride in his nation’s standing. In Obama, we have a leader who approaches
foreign policy like he is walking on egg shells and who believes he owes the
world an apology for the fact that his country is strong and influential.
Obama’s comfort level lies not in practicing the art of
adult leadership; but in the role of a glib hipster who revels in taking shots
at the country he was groomed to despise during his formative years.
Unfortunately for Obama and for the country, this approach does not come across
even as humble; as did the incompetence of the Administration of Jimmy Carter.
Nor does it seem a refreshing change to the brash, neo-conservative trumpeting
of the Bush era. Rather, it resonates as embarrassingly weak, and further
reduces America’s standing in the international community to that of a bit
player rather than a Superpower ready to lead.
The hallmark of the Reagan Administration was its strong
sense of pride in America and a genuine understanding that in our country’s
founding and subsequent actions, America is exceptional. Like many of his
predecessors, going back to George Washington, President Reagan understood the
power and the importance of projecting positive leadership and optimism as
great motivators. He rarely missed an opportunity to extoll the virtues of the
country he genuinely loved, and of its position in the world as a role model
for expanding and protecting human freedom.
Many of us recall fondly Reagan’s characterization of
America as the “shining city on a hill.” Compare that vision to the picture
painted by Obama’s lowest-common-denominator view of the world and of our place
in it. It may be a pipe dream to expect Obama to capture even a scintilla of
Reagan’s awe and respect for the country he was honored to lead; but if Obama
is unable to open his mouth and actually stand up for America, it would be far
preferable that he simply sit down and shut up. ~~By Bob Barr, a Friend of

TRADITIONAL PRESIDENT OBAMA AT UNITED NATIONS CALLS FOR
AMERICA TO BE ‘BOUND BY INTERNATIONAL LAWS,’ GIVE UP CONTROL!
11 TIMES OBAMA TALKED DOWN THE U.S. IN HIS FINAL U.N.
ADDRESS
In his final speech to the United Nations General Assembly,
President Obama laid out what he views as his foreign policy legacy — and in so
doing, highlighted how America itself still has much work to do. Specifically,
Obama found 11 separate opportunities to talk down his own country.
Here are some of the ways Obama told the United Nations
America is falling short:
1.In America, there’s too much money in politics.
2.There’s also too much “entrenched partisanship.”
3.Too few Americans are civically engaged.
4.A “patchwork of laws” in America set out to make it hard
for Americans to vote.
5.Considering our founding ideals, America has made “our
share of mistakes over these last 25 years.”
6.The only way the world will become more secure is for
powerful nations like America to “accept constraints.”
7.For believing that all countries must adhere to certain
“international norms,” many Americans criticize Obama.
8.Too many in Washington believe all of the problems in the
world can be solved by Washington.
9.As president, he’s helped “curb” America’s “excesses of
capitalism.”
10.America has “undermined unions,” which has destroyed
manufacturing jobs.
11.In calling for greater respect and tolerance, Obama also
likened racial discrimination in the U.S. to ethnic discrimination in Burundi
and religious discrimination in Burma. ~~
Tradition is about having a President who believes in the
people that elected him to rule, and rule through bipartisanship and not by
deception, division and fraud. Tradition is about not having one, but two
Attorney Generals who won’t and didn’t enforce the laws of the land when it
came to immigration, the social engineering of our military, and the bathroom
habits of transgender’s and the clandestine pedophiles that are sitting back
and licking their chops, but just one attorney general that follows the
tradition of rule of law and the constitution. Tradition is not having MS-13
members and radical Islamic terrorists paying off the political leadership of
these Sanctuary Cities to hide and terrorize locals while selling drugs,
committing murders, robberies, and with no threat of being corralled and
deported. Tradition is also the American people being aware of their
surroundings and not surrendering to the pressures of conforming to the ideals
of ideologies that don’t make their country exceptional, and then fighting for
the liberties and freedoms that the Constitution already provides, and what
America represents in the world.
Who would have ever thought that America’s exceptionalism
would succumb to the outside interest pressures of converting to a Socialist 3rd
world, but more than that, that our elected officials would let it happen! Tradition
is what has made America that 'shining city on a hill,' protected the liberties
and freedoms of the world, and went to the aid of those countries fighting in
WWI and WWII to protect those same cherished rights that we enjoy here at home
on American soil.
Progressive believe that using America’s morals and beliefs
against the rule of law is enough to make the silent majority betray America’s
founding fathers vision for our Constitutional Republic, but they missed is that it doesn’t mean
the American people are stupid and blind when it comes to the
obvious Obama/Hillary agenda of transforming America!~~
I don’t think an American President ever wanted to be ‘KING’ of the United Nations, do you?
I don’t think an American President ever wanted to be ‘KING’ of the United Nations, do you?
I don’t think an American President spent the beginning of his
term going on an Apology tour to belittle the country he is the President of,
do you?
I don’t think an American President studied in one of
America’s top Ivy league schools, bypass the ‘Natural Born’ Citizenship requirement
to be President, and on top of that, being assisted by a Political elite leader
(Nancy Pelosi) to do so, do you?
ONLY AMERICA TRADITIONS ARE AMERICAN, SO LET’S GET TOGETHER
AGAIN AND CELEBRATE MAKING AMERICA GREAT IN THE SAME TRADITION THAT THE AMERICA
GENERATIONS DID BEFORE TODAY, AND BEFORE UNCONSTITUTIONAL PRESIDENT, BARACK
‘INSANE’ OBAMA!
Traditions and Customs of the United States
Nearly every known religion is practiced in the United
States, which was founded on the basis of religious freedom. About 83 percent
of Americans identify themselves as Christians, according to an ABC poll, while
13 percent replied that they had no religion at all. Another poll in 2012
reported similar findings. It also found that Judaism is the second
most-identified religious affiliation, at about 1.7 percent of the population.
Only 0.6 percent of respondents identified as Muslim.
Many holidays are celebrated only in the United States.
Americans celebrate their independence from Britain on July 4. Memorial Day,
celebrated on the last Monday in May, honors those who have died in military
service. Labor Day, observed on the first Monday in September, celebrates
country’s workforce. Thanksgiving, another distinctive American holiday, falls
on the fourth Thursday in November and dates back to colonial times to
celebrate the harvest. Presidents’ Day, marking the birthdays of George
Washington and Abraham Lincoln, is a federal holiday that occurs on the third
Monday in February. The contributions of veterans are honored on Veterans’ Day,
observed on Nov. 11. The contributions of civil rights leader Martin Luther
King Jr. are remembered on the third Monday in January.
The New ‘progressive’ traditions that replaced the old definition
of traditional America’s beliefs and practices are what the American people
voted against. Trump represents the values of old school traditions, and the trial
and error of bipartisanship's successes and failures that came about working
together and not apart! It’s not about being right or wrong, but the bipartisan effort in
helping to fulfil the mandate of the ‘Will’ of the American people, but if the
divided partisan sides only care about being reelected, their ego, and
greed, than it’s time, through the ballot box, to traditionally help drain Trump’s definition
of the ‘Swamp’
