To my readers:
This is a video that every American should watch. It is on youtube.com, and shows what our country will be like if the Obamacrats get their way with Obamacare etc.

Sarah Palin's Cap and Trade tax op-ed
I am a big fan of Sarah Palin, and she wrote an execellent and informative op-ed, so I am publishing it in my blog as the Liberal News Media won't. They don't want the public to see how intelligent she is:
Americans are going to pay, literally, for who they made president...
The 'Cap And Tax' Dead End
By Sarah Palin
Tuesday, July 14, 2009
There is no shortage of threats to our economy. America's unemployment rate recently hit its highest mark in more than 25 years and is expected to continue climbing. Worries are widespread that even when the economy finally rebounds, the recovery won't bring jobs. Our nation's debt is unsustainable, and the federal government's reach into the private sector is unprecedented.
Unfortunately, many in the national media would rather focus on the personality-driven political gossip of the day than on the gravity of these challenges. So, at risk of disappointing the chattering class, let me make clear what is foremost on my mind and where my focus will be:
I am deeply concerned about President Obama's cap-and-trade energy plan, and I believe it is an enormous threat to our economy. It would undermine our recovery over the short term and would inflict permanent damage.
American prosperity has always been driven by the steady supply of abundant, affordable energy. Particularly in Alaska, we understand the inherent link between energy and prosperity, energy and opportunity, and energy and security. Consequently, many of us in this huge, energy-rich state recognize that the president's cap-and-trade energy tax would adversely affect every aspect of the U.S. economy.
There is no denying that as the world becomes more industrialized, we need to reform our energy policy and become less dependent on foreign energy sources. But the answer doesn't lie in making energy scarcer and more expensive! Those who understand the issue know we can meet our energy needs and environmental challenges without destroying America's economy.
Job losses are so certain under this new cap-and-tax plan that it includes a provision accommodating newly unemployed workers from the resulting dried-up energy sector, to the tune of $4.2 billion over eight years. So much for creating jobs.
In addition to immediately increasing unemployment in the energy sector, even more American jobs will be threatened by the rising cost of doing business under the cap-and-tax plan. For example, the cost of farming will certainly increase, driving down farm incomes while driving up grocery prices. The costs of manufacturing, warehousing and transportation will also increase.
The ironic beauty in this plan? Soon, even the most ardent liberal will understand supply-side economics.
The Americans hit hardest will be those already struggling to make ends meet. As the president eloquently puts it, their electricity bills will "necessarily skyrocket." So much for not raising taxes on anyone making less than $250,000 a year.
Even Warren Buffett, an ardent Obama supporter, admitted that under the cap-and-tax scheme, "poor people are going to pay a lot more for electricity."
We must move in a new direction. We are ripe for economic growth and energy independence if we responsibly tap the resources that God created right underfoot on American soil. Just as important, we have more desire and ability to protect the environment than any foreign nation from which we purchase energy today.
In Alaska, we are progressing on the largest private-sector energy project in history. Our 3,000-mile natural gas pipeline will transport hundreds of trillions of cubic feet of our clean natural gas to hungry markets across America. We can safely drill for U.S. oil offshore and in a tiny, 2,000-acre corner of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge if ever given the go-ahead by Washington bureaucrats.
Of course, Alaska is not the sole source of American energy. Many states have abundant coal, whose technology is continuously making it into a cleaner energy source. Westerners literally sit on mountains of oil and gas, and every state can consider the possibility of nuclear energy.
We have an important choice to make. Do we want to control our energy supply and its environmental impact? Or, do we want to outsource it to China, Russia and Saudi Arabia? Make no mistake: President Obama's plan will result in the latter.
For so many reasons, we can't afford to kill responsible domestic energy production or clobber every American consumer with higher prices.
Can America produce more of its own energy through strategic investments that protect the environment, revive our economy and secure our nation?
Yes, we can. Just not with Barack Obama's energy cap-and-tax plan.

Cap And Trade Bill (Utilities Tax Increase)
People, including my Democrat friends, have been asking me why I haven't been writing articles lately. I have been preparing, the best I can, for the Great Obamacrat Depression. One of the things I have done, is plant a garden. Of course with all the "Global Warming", on June 8th my garden froze.
What worries me now, is the Democrat controlled House of Representatives just passed Obama's so-called "Cap and Trade Bill". Socialism at it's core. Of course our Wyoming's Cynthis Lummis voted against it-that goes without saying. Republicans don't like Socialism.
Now, the Democrat-controlled Senate votes on this another Obama/Pelosi bill. I am sure it will pass, the Republicans can't stop it there either. Just remember this is the Democrats baby when you vote next year.
This "Cap and Trade bill, AKA The Carbon Tax, will cost us all money every time you turn on a light switch, or put gas in your car. Even the people who voted for their Messiah-Obama, because they thought they would get more handouts, will pay more. It will affect us all. Even those in a rest home will pay more (or their family and taxpayers will).
Of course the excuse for this tax on coal, natural gas, gasoline, etc. etc. is the Global Warming Hoax. My utility bill stated last year that every month but two, were colder than the year before. The same is going on now.
We had the coldest winter we have seen in over 10 years. It is around 80 below in Antartica right now (of course now the talk is about thawing at the arctic circle where it is spring and it thaws naturally). The propaganda films of thawing ice are years old.;
As for me, I have been taking care of my investments best I can. The year I expected to retire, is the year Social Security goes broke. And, I am nursing my garden back to life. I like to eat.
This carbon tax is estimated to double everyone's utility bill. Good luck. Got a wood stove and coal oil lamps? I do.

J. C. Ryle Quote
Dear Readers,
Here is an interesting quote from history, that I completely agree with:
Just A Reminder......
J.C. Ryle (1816-1900) wrote the following in Fire, Fire!:
Beware of manufacturing a god of your own: a god who is all mercy but not just, a god who is all love but not holy, a god who has a heaven for everybody but a hell for none, a god who can allow good and bad to be side by side in time, but will make no distinction between good and broad in eternity. Such a god is an idol of your own, as truly an idol as any snake or crocodile in an Egyptian temple. The hands of your own fancy and sentimentality have made him. He is not the God of the Bible, and beside the God of the Bible, there is no God at all.
Beware of making selections from your Bible to suit your taste. Dare not to say, ‘I believe this verse, for I like it. I refuse that, for I cannot reconcile it with my views’. Nay! But O man, who art thou that repliest against God? By what right do you talk in this way? Surely it were better to say over EVERY chapter in the word, “Speak Lord, for thy servant heareth”. Ah! If men would do this, they would never deny the unquenchable fire.

Conservative Black Woman
To my readers:
I haven't had enough time to write new op-eds lately, and I know people are checking for something new to read.
So, I highly reccomend going to: conservativeblkwoman.blogspot.com. That lady uses her head for more than a hat rack. She is not the typical Liberal-Democrat "poor me" black person. It is refreshing to know there is a few like her.
I printed, and saved, one of her newest blogs called: Why I Voted Democrat. It is really a thoughtful article.
Thanks, Conservative Bill

Conservative Bill Sez: TEA Party Mania
I have never been more proud of my country, and of my native state of Wyoming, as I was yesterday (tax day). I attended the TEA (Taxed Enough Already) Party in Sheridan, WY. I only expected a few people, but there were so many crowded together they couldn't be counted. They were in the hundreds.
I have been disgusted with our federal government for various reasons, but I have renewed confidence in the people of this greatest nation on earth.
In some cities there were crowds in the thousands. As many as 15,000 people in bigger cities. A possible 7 million nationwide. All this with no support, or airplay from the leftist media. I had to learn about it on the Web. And, even after this historic event, there was hardly any coverage, at all, by the Obama-biased news shows (ABC, CBS, NBC).
There were people of all political parties in attendance. Even Democrats. Many of them are worred about our future too.
These TEA Parties were a protest against all the wild spending of borrowed, or just printed, money by our out of control Obama government. The government doesn't have any money, if fact, it is 11 Trillion dollars in debt. In 5 years it will double that, and triple it in 10 years-with Obama's plans. Can we survive that?
Obama's Secretary of Homeland Security, called us "Right Wing Extremists". I guess being patriotic is "extreme" to Obama's gang, many of whom don't pay their taxes like we Peons do. I am sure these leftists were in the destructive demonstrations in the 60's and 70's, which supported the communists of North Vietnam. They didn't call themselves "extremists" though.
There is going to be another TEA party on Independence Day, and one in December on the date of the original tea party of 1773. Let's make them even bigger.
Here in Sheridan, the day before, the Cut and Run Club "Peacemakers", had 4 people attend their protest. I am glad most people know what to take serious.

Tea Party-April 15th
To my readers:
Please help on April 15th, tax day, and join in one of the many TEA party demonstations. They are protests against the sky high taxes, bailouts, and other schemes that are going to cost future generations. Or, that may cause this country to go bust. Government handouts may be a thing of the past, when the government is bankrupt.
So, find out the location on the Web, in newspapers, or whatever it takes to help the cause. Now is not the time to turn on the TV and forget our nations problems.
The one in Sheridan, Wy is at City Hall at 5 pm. I will be there, so say hi if you get a chance. Thanks....

Is Obama A Citizen?
I am sure a lot of people know by now, that Obama has refused to produce his birth certificate to confirm whether he is an American citizen or not. Why not? Does he have something to hide? Wasn't he properly vetted? And, why was he elected president with no proof of citizenship? According to the laws of our country, a person has to have been born in America to qualify for the presidency. If Obama is proved to be an imposter, then I am sure he will be booted out of the White House. The scary part of that, is so-called "Big Mouth Biden" will be the next president. There might be secrets about Obama's birth that actually may not be good to make public. They may come out someday anyway. All the lawsuits may produce some shocking things (I have heard of one). I would just be happy to know if he is an American, Indonesian, or Kenyan. Why did Obama only visit his (white) grandmother for one hour, as she lay on her death bed? This was reported by the liberal Democrat news shows. All we saw, and heard, on TV was how sexy their "Messiah" was covorting around on the beach. His mother's mother raised him mostly, so I think he owes her. Something is fishy about this whole mess. Maybe someday the Liberal Democrats, and a few others who worship Obama, will find out their "Messiah" is a false prophet. A few have figured it out already. Some of us knew from the start.
