The Strategy Behind The Crisis

09 July 2009 - I discovered a new phrase today that I'm sure you will be hearing a lot about in the not too distant future. Remember these words "Piven and Cloward" and then do your own research. I am an engineer. I am not a conspiracy theorist, I go where the verifiable facts take me. I have often scratched my head and wondered why such a talented group of people as is found in the Obama administration, (If you think they are all clueless then you are only deceiving yourself) would ignore facts and history, even logic, in some of their decisions. For instance, WHY run up the largest debt in the nation's history during such a severe financial crisis? Why stress an already overburdened infrastructure with policies such as cap and trade and national health care?

Read the article below and remember it was written in 2008:

Also google the book "Praxis for the Poor" online.

These are not conspiracy theories, but actual accounts in the first person with a clear legitimate history. It only takes time and a little bit of effort to connect the dots to see where our President is taking this country - not to an expanded role of government, but to the complete replacement of the capitalist system with a socialist state.

Herman Cain Broadcasts During the July 3rd TEA Party at Jim Miller Park

July 4th 2009 - with the current economic crisis and the growing dissatisfaction with Washington's addiction to unadulterated spending, this years July 4th celebration took on an activist tone. Things started off Friday evening at Jim Miller Park where Herman Cain broad cast his popular radio show from 7 to 9 PM. The event was attended by a surprising large crowd of 7,000 people. It was one of over 1300 TEA parties scheduled to take place this weekend to protest government spending. The event was free to the public and many of the families there I spoke with were stopping by on their way out of town for the 4th of July weekend.

The fun continued on July 4th with the 4th of July Parade down Roswell Street in Marietta. The Cobb GOP Float took 1st place. Congratulations to Trisha Pridemore and the Float Team!

After the parade the Cobb County GOP held their annual Barbecue at Jim Miller Park. It included a salute to the armed forces, and speeches by all 5 candidates for governor. There were also speeches by candidates for Secretary of State, Insurance Commissioner, Agriculture Secretary, Lt. Govenor, etc. It makes one wonder if there is still such a thing as an off election year.

In contrast to the national party, the State GOP party is well stocked with candidates with political experience and should do well in next years 2010 state races.
