Bill Adolph’s Campaign Donations
Does one wonder why the reforms that have taken place in Wisconsin and Indiana have not occurred in Pennsylvania despite the Republicans controlling all three branches of state government?
Montco Tea Party activist Bob Guzzardi notes that Springfield’s own Bill Adolph who has represented the 165th District since 1988 with such knob-polishing diligence that his peers in Harrisburg have bestowed upon him the chairmanship of the powerful House Appropriations Committee, got a $5,000 campaign donation from organized labor’s Good Jobs Pa PAC on April 27.
Guzzardi further notes that the PSEA, the teachers union, is a consistent donor to his campaign.
Even a graduate of a school whose teachers are represented by a PSEA affiliate should be able to do the math as why the things that need to get done in Pennsylvania don’t.

Off The Internet– Warning From Krauthammer
Dr. Charles Krauthammer is frequently on the Fox News Channel. He is an M.D., a lawyer and is paralyzed from the neck down. A friend went to hear Charles Krauthammer. He listened with 25 others in a closed room. What he says here is NOT 2nd-hand but 1st. The ramifications are staggering for us, our children and their children.
Last Monday was a profound evening. Dr. Charles Krauthammer spoke to the Center for the American Experiment. He is a brilliant intellectual, seasoned & articulate. He is forthright and careful in his analysis and never resorts to emotions or personal insults. He is NOT a fear monger nor an extremist in his comments and views. He is a fiscal conservative and has received a Pulitzer Prize for writing. He is a frequent contributor to Fox News and writes weekly for the Washington Post.
The entire room was held spellbound during his talk. I have summarized his comments, as we are living in uncharted waters economically and internationally.
Even 2 Dems at my table agreed with everything he said! If you feel like forwarding this to those who are open minded and have not drunk the Kool-Aid, feel free….
Summary of his comments:
1. Mr. Obama is a very intellectual, charming individual. He is not to be underestimated. He is a cool customer who doesn’t show his emotions. It’s very hard to know what’s behind the mask. The taking down of the Clinton dynasty was an amazing accomplishment. The Clintons still do not understand what hit them. Obama was in the perfect place at the perfect time.
2. Obama has political skills comparable to Reagan and Clinton. He has a way of making you think he’s on your side, agreeing with your position, while doing the opposite. Pay no attention to what he SAYS; rather, watch what he DOES!
3. Obama has a ruthless quest for power. He did not come to Washington to make something out of himself but rather to change everything, including dismantling capitalism. He can’t be straightforward on his ambitions, as the public would not go along. He has a heavy hand and wants to level the playing field with income redistribution and punishment to the achievers of society. He would like to model the USA to Great Britain or Canada .
4. His three main goals are to control ENERGY, PUBLIC EDUCATION and NATIONAL HEALTHCARE by the Federal government. He doesn’t care about the auto or financial services industries but got them as an early bonus. The cap and trade will add costs to everything and stifle growth. Paying for FREE college education is his goal. Most scary is his healthcare program because if you make it FREE and add 46,000,000 people to a Medicare-type single-payer system, the costs will go through the roof. The only way to control costs is with massive RATIONING of services, like in Canada .. God forbid!
5. He has surrounded himself with mostly far-left academic types. No one around him has ever even run a candy store. But they are going to try and run the auto, financial, banking and other industries. This obviously can’t work in the long run. Obama is not a socialist; rather he’s a far-left secular progressive bent on nothing short of revolution. He ran as a moderate but will govern from the hard left. Again, watch what he DOES, not what he says. 6. Obama doesn’t really see himself as President of the United States but more as a ruler over the world. He sees himself above it all, trying to orchestrate & coordinate various countries and their agendas. He sees moral equivalency in all cultures. His apology tour in Germany and England was a prime example of how he sees America as an imperialist nation that has been arrogant, rather than a great noble nation that has at times made errors. This is the first President, ever , who has chastised our allies and appeased our enemies!
7. He is now handing out goodies. He hopes that the bill (and pain) will not come due until after he is reelected in 2012. He would like to blame all problems on Bush, from the past, and hopefully his successor in the future. He has a huge ego and Dr. Krauthammer believes he is a narcissist.
8. Republicans are in the wilderness for a while but will emerge strong. Republicans are pining for another Reagan but there will never be another like him. Krauthammer believes Mitt Romney, Tim Pawlenty & Bobby Jindahl (except for his terrible speech in February) are the future of the party. Newt Gingrich is brilliant but has baggage. Sarah Palin is sincere and intelligent but needs to really be seriously boning up on facts and info if she is to be a serious candidate in the future. We need to return to the party of lower taxes, smaller government, personal responsibility, strong national defense and State’s Rights. 9. The current level of spending is irresponsible and outrageous. We are spending trillions that we don’t have. This could lead to hyperinflation, depression or worse. No country has ever spent themselves into prosperity. The Media is giving Obama, Reid and Pelosi a Pass because they love their agenda. But eventually the bill will come due and people will realize the huge bailouts didn’t work, nor will the stimulus package. These were trillion-dollar payoffs to Obama’s allies, unions and the Congress to placate the left, so he can get support for #4 above.
10. The election was over in mid-September when Lehman brothers failed, fear and panic swept in, we had an unpopular President, and the war was grinding on indefinitely without a clear outcome. The people are in pain and the mantra of change caused people to act emotionally. Any Dem would have won this election; it was surprising it was as close as it was. 11. In 2012, if the unemployment rate is over 10%, Republicans will be swept back into power. If it’s under 8%, the Dems continue to roll. If it’s between 8-10%, it will be a dogfight. It will all be about the economy. I hope this gets you really thinking about what’s happening in Washington and Congress. There is a left-wing revolution going on, according to Krauthammer, and he encourages us to keep the faith and join the loyal resistance. The work will be hard but we’re right on most issues and can reclaim our country before it’s far too late.
“This country, with its institutions, belongs to the people who inhabit it. Whenever they shall grow weary of the existing government, they can exercise their Constitutional right of amending it or their revolutionary right to dismember it or overthrow it.” – Abraham Lincoln
Do yourself a long term favor. Send this to all who will listen to an intelligent assessment of the big picture. All our futures and children’s futures depend on our good understanding of what is really going on in DC and our action pursuant to that understanding!!
It really IS up to each of us to take individual action!!

Report: Zombie Muhammed Judge Gets Rebuked
The Cumberland County (Pa.) Muslim judge who reprimanded an atheist who brought charges against a Muslim man for allegedly attacking him during the Mechanicsburg Halloween Parade, Oct. 11, 2011 has been subject to a “private rebuke of his behavior” by Commonwealth of Pennsylvania’s Judicial Conduct Board, WorldNetDaily.Com has reported.
The atheist, Ernest Perce V, wore a “zombie Muhammed” costume during the parade which allegedly prompted Tallag Elbayomy to storm from the sidewalk and pull a sign off his neck.
Perce is the state director of American Atheists.
Perce went to police and after an investigation in which police said Elbayomy confirmed there was physical contact, harassment charges were filed against Elbayomy. The charge was dismissed at a Dec. 6 preliminary hearing before Magisterial Judge Mark Martin who told Perce, among other things, that “What you’ve done is you’ve completely trashed their essence, their being. They find it very, very offensive. I’m a Muslim. I find offensive.”
Since the incident Perce has reportedly received 471 verifiable threats.
According to WorldNetDaily, Joseph A. Massa Jr., the chief counsel for the Judicial Conduct Board, said a letter has been sent to Martin stating: The board recently concluded its investigation regarding the complaint you filed against Magisterial District Judge Mark Martin, Cumberland County. The board voted to issue a letter of caution to Judge Martin as a private rebuke of his behavior and, thereafter, to close the case.
Perce recorded the hearing and has placed it on YouTube embedded below:

Report: GOP-e Shunning McGinnis Campaign

The district is in Blair County.
McGinnis beat long-term GOP incumbent Richard Geist, who had represented the district since 1979, in the primary angering the establishment.

ACLU Is Putting On A Parade At Voter ID Hearing
The Independence Hall Tea Party Association notes in its most recent newsletter that: The PA Voter ID Hearing is entering its 5th Day of trial with no end in sight. The ACLU is parading witness after witness. They are testifying, with straight faces, that making a trip to the local Penndot office, to obtain a photo ID, would be a terrible burden for them–both financially and logistically.
So, how come the ACLU has never before expressed a concern about these deprived people being able to cash checks, open bank accounts or get a library card?
What a narrow-minded group of people. Don’t they think dead Pennsylvanians should have access to books?
IHTPA notes that the hearing is open to the public and should last until the end of the week. Sessions start at 9 a.m. in Courtroom 3002 Pennsylvania Judicial Center, 601 Commonwealth Ave., Harrisburg, Pa. before Judge Robert Simpson. The IHTPA is offering transportation. Call 1-215-663-1983.
Reviews Matter To Car Shoppers
Emarketer.com reports that seven out of 10 consumers say dealership reviews affected their decision on where to buy their vehicle.
So salesmen remember the words of the famous bouncer Dalton when dealing with prospective costumers and “be nice”.
