I'm running for Chairman!

The Macomb County Republican Party is in shambles! Due to much infighting, the county
Chairman, Mike Ennis, resigned. You may have read about the huge mess in the papers.
I plan on implementing my DREAD (Devoted Republicans Engage Against the Democrats) idea myself by running for county party Chairman and fill in for the rest of the term.

The MCRP is a very dull sword, and my mission is to sharpen the blade. Republicans are better than that. We will have the most important Presidential election in our nation's history, and Republicans can't afford to have a fractured party in a county of 840,000 people! The county motto was 'aggressive, visible, organized'. Now we're passive, invisible, and disorgaized. The Democrats are laughing at us because we can't get our act together. I hope that DREAD will unite Republicans so they can engage against the Democrats. You can reach me at gjl1700@yahoo.com if you want to discuss the issue.

Happy birthday, Mr. President!

Today is President Barack Obama's 50th birthday. Yesterday, he celebrated with a huge fundraiser in which the top donors gave up to $35,800 each to be there. Of course, these are the same people whom the President loves to bash. He loves ripping on the rich as much as he loves ripping them off. With higher taxes, bloated govern-ment, skyrocketing deficits, and the threat of a credit downgrade, among other things, President Obama has made life miserable for all Americans.

He keeps delivering the same old line that the rich with their fancy private jets should be paying more. How much more can they give? The top one percent of income earners pay 40% of the taxes. And talk about fancy jets, they don't get any fancier than Air Force One. Fortunately, Obama will have to give up his jet on January 20th,
2013 at noon EST.

And with less than one hour to go in trading on Wall Street, the Dow Jones is down more than 300 points. Talk about a disappointing birthday gift. It's a far cry from the birthday song that Marilyn Monroe gave to President John Kennedy. So happy 50th birthday, Mr. President. I want to give you America's economy as my gift to you. I mean it is your economy now, isn't it?

An evening with Ann Coulter!

Last week, conservative author and commentator Ann Coulter toured Michigan to promote her new book Demonic. On Thursday she appeared at Petruzello's in Troy. About 400 people were there, and a great time was had by all, especially me. I sat near the front wearing my DREAD T-shirt. Coulter delivered her usual zingers at the liberals, including former Congressman Anthony Weiner and DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz. After she finished her speech, she took questions from the audience.

I raised my hand and Coulter pointed to me. I first said that when I bought her book If Demo-
crats Had Any Brains, They'd Be Republicans, I pointed out that the receipt read 'If Democrats Had Any Bra'. It's bad enough that liberals have no brains. Now they have no bras either. I guess it was the result of the feminist movement. Then I asked her why President Barack Obama would throw Israel under the bus while treating the President of China with a lavish state dinner
and reception at the White House. Ann talked about how Obama has been treating our allies like dirt while doing nothing to hinder our enemies.

After that, she had a book signing. She signed both of my books from her, the other being Treason. She liked the fact that my name is G.J. and wanted to know what it stood for. I had a great time. I just wish all of you could've been there, minus the liberals of course.

Help Ola Kaso from being deported!

On the front page of the May 25th edition of the Sterling Heights Sentry, a young woman named Ola Kaso and her mother, Violeta, will be deported to their native Albania on June 10th. Ola will graduate with a 4.4 GPA on June 9th from Warren Cousino High School. She was accepted into the pre-med program at the University of Michigan and wants to be a doctor. Violeta owns a bakery in Center Line. Everything was going fine for them until their original immigration attorneys failed to file their legal application for asylum. Now their lives are in limbo.

Violeta, Ola, and Ola's sister Nevila came to the United States in 1998. They have made America their home. Nevila married an American citizen and received a green card. Now Violeta and Ola are fighting for their lives. If you want to help them from being deported, you can log on to
http://action.dreamactivist.org/ola. You may sign a petition and contact our politicians to help them stay in America. It's too bad that good people who want to be decent Americans will be sent back to their native countries because of somebody's incompetence. Please help Ola and Violeta stay here. Thank you and have a great Memorial Day.

My confrontation with Councilwoman Deanna Koski!

On April 13th, just after noon, I was at the Sterling Heights Public Library collecting signatures for Joe Judnick, who's running for the city council. Two other councilwomen, Deanna Koski and Yvonne Kniaz, were also there collecting their own signatures. I was talking to somebody about the tax and budget policies of the city council. After the coast cleared, Ms. Koski came up to me and told me to watch myself about talking about the issues. My heart was going 200 beats a minute at that moment. My blood pressure was through the roof. That old hag Koski had some nerve intimidating me like that. We went back and forth for about two minutes, and I stood my ground. About 20 minutes later, she actually gave me a timid apology. She said that she normally doesn't lose her temper, but she claimed that what I said hurt her. Well, excuse me, Councilwoman Koski! The truth hurts, doesn't it? The fact is that the current council has increased our taxes, accumulated millions of dollars in outstanding debt, and left the city with over $100 million in unfunded liabilities from pension and health care plans for Sterling Heights workers. And now that the council members are running for their political lives, they must resort to intimidating private citizens to shut them up. But I will not shut up and I will not go away! She actually admitted that she voted for Congresswoman Candice Miller to make herself look nonpartisan. I asked her if she voted for President Barack Obama, and she said no. When I pressed further, she said she voted for John McCain. I wonder what her fellow Democrats will think about that? So much for nonpartisanship. She certainly sounded very partisan when she confronted me without provocation! I was just talking to somebody about the issues. I never addressed any issues to her. I neither confronted nor complained about her voting record, although others did. But we have to look at the larger issue here. This is a symptom of a much larger problem. Politicians work for the people; it is not the other way around. For decades, conservatives and Tea Party Patriots like myself have been accused of starving children, kicking senoirs out of their homes, not giving unions workers enough pay, not giving health care to everybody, and so on. (I told this to Koski!) It's time to place the blame where it really belongs, to the people who will raise taxes and deficits and blame their victims for the demise that they caused themselves. Now I know a lot of you are thinking why I would make a big deal about an old woman who is barely half my size giving me a hard time. I'll tell you why. It's because this is not an isolated incident. In fact, this is the modus operandi for liberals. If you are familiar with Saul Alinsky's tactic of 'pick it, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it', you'll know exactly what I mean. And what the hell kind of a council is Mayor Richard Notte running when the council members try to intimidate citizens into submission? The Sterling Heights City Council is running the city to the ground. They should be held responsible for their actions. They have nobody to blame but themselves. I know that I'm not alone in this struggle. Millions of Americans are rising up because they are mad as hell and they're not going to take it anymore. As far as Deanna Koski is concerned, I'll accept her apology - when she and the rest of the tax-and-spend liberals on the council are defeated this November. I will not rest until they are. But it's nothing personal. It's strictly business! G.J. LaRouche, 14 April 2011

The DREAD T-shirts are here!

I premiered the DREAD T-shirts this past Saturday at the Michigan C-PAC luncheon in Holt. I sold three shirts, but I hope to sell the rest soon. Those who saw the new logo liked it. If you are interested in purchasing a shirt, they are $15 each. You can reach me at gjl1700@yahoo.com. If you're interested in seeing the logo, first log on to www.rhinoprint.com. Then type in the User Name dread and password rhino at the lower right corner of the screen. I hope you enjoy it. I also hope to talk about my plan in greater detail at the next Macomb County Republican Party meeting on Thursday, April 7th. For more details, log on to www.macombgop.com. Thank you for your support. G.J. LaRouche, 30 March 2011

THE WORLD PREMIERE OF DREAD!

I'm finally putting my money where my mouth is. I'm finally taking the initiative by placing DREAD on the political map for all of America to see. I am holding the world premiere of DREAD at the Michigan C-PAC luncheon on March 26th in Holt, Michigan. In case you don't know, DREAD is the new acronym for Devoted Republicans Engage Against the Democrats. I am selling T-shirts at the event for $15 each. I hope that the attendees will buy them and spread the news that the Republican Party holds a brand new and aggressive attitude toward Democrats who want to destroy America by raising taxes, failing to drill for domestic oil, skyrocketing and monetizing the national debt, causing massive inflation and unemployment, ruthlessly implementing socialized medicine down our throats without even using a tongue depressor, and watching the Middle East go ablaze while doing nothing. Other than that, Democrats are swell people. Now I'm not going to show you a sketch of the logo. You'll have to attend the C-PAC luncheon to see it for yourself. If you go, please feel free to take pictures of the shirt and send them to your friends. 30 years ago, WRIF (101.1 FM) in Detroit implemented Detroit Rockers Engaged in the Abolition of Disco to knock out the disco craze of the 1970s. Now I need your help to defeat the Democrats. See you at the luncheon. G.J. LaRouche, 21 March 2011

Hypocrisy on the High Court!

Last week, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 8-1 in favor of the Westboro Baptist Church claiming it has the right to harass the families of dead American soldiers by holding up signs that read God hates dead soldiers and other offensive statements. Only Justice Samuel Alito ruled in favor of the family of Marine Cpl. Matthew Snider, who was killed defending our country. All the family wanted to do was bury him in peace, yet they received nothing but grief. While it is true that people have the right to free speech in this country, the first amendment is not a permission slip to say whatever you want. This isn't a case of free speech as much as it is a case about civility and good manners. This obscure and insignificant church just opened up the door for other organizations to spew vile and hateful speech regardless of how much it hurts its victims.

Yet when it comes to Christians wishing to openly profess their faith in God, judges seem all too eager to shut them up. Judges have ruled against:

Footfall teams wanting to say a prayer for victory before a game;
Students silently praying before class in school;
Class valedictorians thanking God for their gifts at a commencement address;
Organizations erecting a cross on a hill to honor war veterans;
Students reciting 'The Pledge of Alligiance' because it mentions God;
A judge wanting to place the Ten Commandments in a courthouse;
The phrase 'In God We Trust' on our currency, and so on.

Why is it alright for the Westboro Baptist Church to invoke God in such a hateful manner, yet praising God is absolutely prohibited? Since the Supreme Court says it's alright for this dumb church to use hateful speech under the banner of the first amendment, I think people should give them a taste of their own medicine and picket their church in protest of the Supreme Court ruling. If such methods are good enough for the Westboro Baptist Church, it should be more than good enough for those who want to condemn them.

What a bunch of meatheads!

I'd like to give you my take on the financial crises happening across the country and on the emotional meltdown of the Democratic Party. The federal government is $14.2 trillion in debt according to www.usdebtclock.org. Our states are in red ink because they overpromised on the salaries and benefits to public sector unions. The Middle East is on fire, which is leading to skyrocketing gas prices. The Federal Reserve is printing money to pay for the debt. Energy and food prices are going way up. Nobody can find any real jobs anymore. Other than that, every-thing is just fine and dandy.

America is at a critical crossroads. These next two years will determine what kind of a country we have and what kind of people we are. Republicans and Tea Party Patriots made tremendous strides in 2010, but the work is far from over. Now we have public-sector union workers going on strike and storming the capitol building in Madison, Wisconsin. They're upset over Governor Scott Walker's plan to increase the contributions the workers must make in their retirement and health care plans. Wisconsin has a $3.6 billion shortfall, and the only way the state can make up for that is by cutting spending.

It's really sad seeing thousands of grown ups (and I call them that because I'm generous) storming the capitol building and acting like its Woodstock in 1969. They're littering the building and preventing the legislators from doing their job. Our form of government is a republic, not a democracy. These workers have no right disturbing the peace and causing mayhem in a building where the representatives must do their work. These teachers who are going on strike are setting a horrible moral example to the children they teach. There were even doctors handing out sick slips in Madison to teachers to give them an excuse for skipping school. These teachers are not sick, but they are mental. Maybe that's why they needed the permission slips.

But this is not the worst part of the story. The 14 Democratic State Senators split town to Illnois more than two weeks ago to prevent the Senate from having a quorum and putting these bills up for a vote. The media praises them for being couragious, but they're nothing but cowards. Do they really think they can accomplish anything by going on strike along with the union workers?
The saddest part about this is that one of these senators is pregnant. Has she gone for her regular appointments? What does this woman's husband think about this? Are the other senators actually willing to sacrifice the health of a baby to promote their cause? (Don't answer that because the answer is yes.) These greedy Democrats care about nothing but themselves and their cause of socialism. And they are willing to do anything to accomplish their goals?

Americans can see right through these losers. Wisconsin was built on a strong work ethic, and this sorry demonstration demonstrates the opposite of that. These senators and union thugs have to learn a radical new concept called going to work for a living. Millions of Americans do it every day. In 1981, President Ronald Reagan fired the striking air traffic controllers because they were braking federal law. Now it is time for Governor Scott Walker to do the same with these union workers. There's already talk of Wisconsin laying off 1,500 workers if nothing gets done. Is this the legacy that the Democrats want to leave behind?

We all know that Green Bay is Titletown in the National Football League. I would love to see Vince Lombardi come back to life, storm into the capitol building where the striking Soviet Union thugs are causing chaos, and straighten them out. These union idiots are not cheeseheads. They are meatheads. It's time to recall the 14 Democratic State Senators and replace them with people who are actually willing to vote. Governor Walker needs to fire all of these striking union
workers like Reagan did 30 years ago. Wisconsin needs to send a clear message to the rest of the country that Republicans are as mad as hell and they aren't going to take it anymore.

Implementing DREAD!

Some of you are probably wondering why I call my blog the DREAD Blog. The DREAD stands for Devoted Republicans Engage Against the Democrats. I came up with this before the Tea Party movement kicked in a couple of years ago. This is actually based on an old idea from the 1970s when disco ruled the charts. Back then, a Detroit radio station (WRIF, 101.1 FM) created the DREAD card, the acronym for Detroit Rockers Engage in the Abolition of Disco. By the early 1980s, just when Ronald Reagan became President, disco disappeared. Thank God for that.

Last Friday, the Republican National Committee elected Reince Priebus as its Chairman. My goal is to work on the RNC staff to implement my DREAD strategy. I've contacted the RNC to show my interest. I also gave LegalZoom.com a sketch of my logo which would be the regi-stered trademark of DREAD. Priebus hopes to raise $400 million in the 2011-2012 election cycle to help defeat the Democrats. But I think DREAD can raise $1 billion to whip the Democrats into submission. For those of you reading this blog, I hope you donate to DREAD to help spread the cause of freedom. I'll keep you posted on my progress.

Let's pray for Gabrielle Giffords!

I want to send my deepest thoughts and prayers for all of those who lost their lives or were wounded in the tragic shooting in Arizona on Saturday. It's really hard for me to express in words how sad and scared I am for this nation. I wish all the best for Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords as she recovers from her bullet wound to her brain. Among the six people who died were a federal judge, a Congressional aide for Giffords, and a nine-year-old girl who wanted to learn more about politics. There are three thoughts that have been floating through my mind as I have watched the aftermath of the tragedy unfold. My intention is not to inject politics into this horrific crime, but just to give you my perspective.

Last Thursday, during the first full day of official business of the 112th Congress, the House of Representatives opened up its proceedings by reading the United States Constitution. House Speaker John Boehner started off by reading the Preamble. Then several other Democrats and Republicans followed. Congresswoman Giffords read the First Amendment which covers free speech. The press seems to think that was an eerie coincidence because she almost died at a gathering that allowed people to speak their minds in front of her. I think it would've been ten times as eerie if she read the Second Amendment, which gives us the right to keep and bear arms. Jered Loughner, the man who killed six people and wounded about 14 others, was a lone psychopath who was bent on creating as much chaos and tragedy as possible. He succeeded at the expense of the security of this nation.

The second thing that crossed my mind was how fast the medical personnel who responded to all of these victims and saved many lives, including that of Congresswoman Giffords. But let's say this took place five years into the future when Canadian-style universal health care would've been fully enforced. Do you think that the doctors and nurses who worked on the wounded would have been able to give these shooting victims the care they needed in the trauma unit? I don't want to speculate here. I'm also not trying to make this a political commentary even though the Democtats insisted on passing universal health care that would give trauma victims inferior care by having the government take over the system and letting bureaucrats decide who lives or dies.

The third thing that I thought about was how Jered Loughner was able to get a gun legally and go on his shooting rampage at all. I've been watching reports on Fox News and reading reports on foxnews.com. There should've been red flags going off all over the place with this guy. He's written a lot of disturbing things on the internet. He claims that 'The Communist Manifesto' is one of his favorite books. His neighbors have said he's an unstable man. He's a high school dropout who disrupted classes at Pima College. Even the college instructors warned about him.
Yet in this politically correct world we live in today, we're supposed to look the other way. What a shame.

The bottom line is that this never should've happened. Even as I feel the loss and pain that
these victims endured at the mind of a madman, I can't help but think that this could've been prevented.

Whose debt is it anyway?

As the Republicans get set to control the House of Representatives tomorrow, one key issue is going to dominate the headlines. This topic is the debt ceiling, which is currently set at $14.3 trillion. The current national debt just eclipsed the $14 trillion mark. This means that Washing-ton will max out its credit card in March. The Republicans are now between a rock and a hard place here. Do they raise the debt ceiling and give themselves more time to fix the mess with the deficits, or do they refuse to raise it and risk the federal goverment defaulting if the debt goes above the limit? This is an important question and a huge dilemma. But first let's think about what happened during the previous two years.

The actual debt went up about $3 trillion during the 111th Congress. The people in charge of the entire federal government were womb-to-tomb progressive liberal Democrats bent on destroy-ing America. That's God's honest truth. Please don't fall into the trap that the Republicans will agree to increase the actual debt if they agree to increase the debt ceiling. The Republicans may not have a choice in this matter because the debt is increasing at about $4 billion per day accor-ding to Fox News. They may not have time to fix everything long term unless they do something about the debt ceiling in the short term.

President Obama, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid set this up so beautifully for themselves. The timing couldn't be better for them. In order to increase the debt, they raised taxes and passed Obamacare. They bailed out the automobile industry, the banks, and Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. They passed stimulus bills costing trillions of dollars.
They printed trillions of dollars courtesy of the Fed, diluting the value of the dollar. And they passed all this legislation using bribes and kickbacks to empower themselves. Obama will use this opportunity to blame House Republicans if the debt goes beyond the ceiling, causing America to default.

Before you blame Republicans for raising the debt ceiling if they have no choice, we need to blame the Democrats for getting us so close to that limit in the first place and make the Repub-
licans look like the bad guys for something they did themselves. Remember that a raise in the debt ceiling doesn't necessarily mean a raise in the debt. I think the Republican House should put the brakes on all this insane spending immediately. If it is inevitable that the debt ceiling will go beyond $14.3 trillion, the Republicans should raise it (to about $15 trillion) and come up with a plan to stop the waste in the long term. They should force President Obama to come to the table and have him agree to negate all of the spending bills that have put America into such a bind.

I hate these looming debts as much as any Tea Party Patriot, but we must deal with reality. Our national debt stands at $14 trillion, as does our Gross Domestic Product. It's very sad to see the wealthiest country in the history of the world be on its knees because our politicians can't control spending and corruption. If the Republicans need to increase the debt limit, I can live with that. If the Republicans refuse to control spending, I can't live with that!
