Obama’s Texas “Truth” Team Unveiled
March 5, 2012 | Author robot
Remember the Socia.List? That menagerie of miscreants comprising the 1000 State Legislators who signed the PSN letter urging passage of Obamacare? Don’t think for a minute they’ve been eradicated. In fact, they’ve recruited quite a few more to their ranks. See, these new recruits recently signed on to be surrogates for Captain Apology under the guise of…
[Queue ominous, badly played, western diminuendo…]
“The Texas Truth Team”
Inspires confidence, doesn’t it? I guess maybe it could, if one ignored the party affiliation and the fact they are propaganda ministers for Dear Leader.
Hey. Guys. Seriously. Next time you decided to form a new band, for heaven’s sake call me for some name suggestions.
Here’s a few off the top of my tin-clad head:
Social Justice League
Reparation Station
The Projectors
Tools of the Tirade
Death Cab for Baby
Marxed-Out
The Keystone Keynesians
Foetus Non Esse
No Borders
Of course, you’re encouraged to add your own suggestions in the comments.
As an example of the dangerously misguided, wacked-out messianic complex the Dem’s have for their chosen one, I offer their own national Truth Team logo, spotted by Glenn Beck’s personal truth team, who astutely point out:
So, just for fun, what say we pay a visit to the Texas leader of these truth-telling vestiges of virtue, shall we?
Texas Democrat Party Chairman, Boyd Richie:
Mr. Richie recently announced his decision not to seek another term as TDP chair in order to run for another office, or something. While making that announcement, Richie had no qualms issuing a few histrionic comments disparaging those with opposing viewpoints and encouraging his fellow lemmings to unite…
Interesting wording, Mr. Richie. except for the fact that it’s hyperbole, innuendo and lies.
With all due respect sir, you’re a shameless demagogue and thus, accurately represent the rest of your party.
Leadership, indeed.
I submit that your statement does however, accurately describe the Democrat party and the Obama regime’s record.
Can you say projection? Sure you can.
It is the democrats who had control of both houses for the first two years of the Obama regime and it is with them that any blame lies for not passing a budget for the past three years. Three more “historic” firsts for those of you at home keeping score.
It was also the democrats who threatened to shut down government, withholding of Social Security checks, withholding of pay from active service troops, cutting healthcare services to veterans, cutting healthcare funds, and more. And they do so out of fear mongering.
The tools of tyrants and dictators throughout history is writ large in the democrat playbook and wielded against the people who’s rights they claim to protect, enslaving us all to exorbitant debt while the party panders ever more to their cronys, barely challenged by the sycophantic media.
Like Obama, Pelosi and Reid, these truth team surrogates must go. If for nothing but the fact they’ve turned the definition of truth on it’s head. They’ve jumped aboard yet another demagogue wagon instead of engaging in meaningful discussion about the constitutional restoration that Texas and America so desperately need.
The members of our merry band of misfits is as follows. Those with an asterisk are included on the Socia.list page. The 11 others are awarded spots on that list as well.
The Texas “Truth” Team:
TDP Chair Boyd Richie, (Good riddance)
US Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-Dallas),
Sen. Jose Rodriguez (D-El Paso),
Rep. Alma Allen (D-Houston), *
Rep. Roberto Alonzo (D-Dallas), *
Rep. Rafael Anchia (D-Dallas), *
Rep. Carol Alvarado (D-Houston),
Rep. Lon Burnam (D-Fort Worth),
Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-San Antonio),
Rep. Garnet F. Coleman (D-Houston), *
Rep. Dawnna Dukes (D-Austin), *
Rep. Joe Farias (D-San Antonio),
Rep. Jessica Farrar (D-Houston),
Rep. Roland Gutierrez (D-San Antonio),
Rep. Eric Johnson (D-Dallas), *
Rep. Marisa Marquez (D-El Paso), *
Rep. Elliott Naishtat (D-Austin), *
Rep. Mark Strama (D-Austin),
Rep. Mike Villarreal (D-San Antonio),
Rep. Armando Walle (D-Houston).*
Note: I’ll do my best to update this list with opposing conservative candidates for the upcoming election, just not today, it was too pretty outside and my tin can needed a tan.

The Irrational Fear of the TEA Party
August 25, 2011 | Author robot
Robo-log: Wednesday 8-24-11
So, here I am with a pulled or torn Achilles tendon, lying in bed with an ice pack under the heel. Yea, I know, I should get it examined to be sure no other damage has occurred. Maybe I’ll go tomorrow, if it doesn’t improve today.
But, that’s not the reason for this post. This post is about the next election and how the TEA Party is being vilified by the media. I know, you’re saying to your monitor right now “bot, you don’t watch the liberal media, how could you know they are painting the TEA Party as wanting to take away grandma’s Social Security payments and Medicare?” Well, I’ll tell you; because a close family member watches the MSM and soaks up every helpful, hateful word. He then decides to share that information with me in the form of useful tidbits of knowledge sprinkled into our casual conversations.
“How did you hurt your foot?” He asks.
“I have no idea. I woke up, got out of bed Sunday morning and as soon as I hit the floor it started barking at me. By the time I went to bed yesterday evening, I couldn’t put any weight on it at all without excruciating pain.” I replied. “Last night, I was hopping around the house on my one good foot. I figure that was an accident waiting to happen.”
‘Have you made a doctor’s appointment?”
“Not yet, I figured I’d better get some crutches before I tried to go anywhere.”
“Well, here they are. I hurt my leg a while back and the boss on the job told the company I hurt it at work so the government would pay for them.”
“Thanks, I appreciate the loan. They’re going to be a big help. How have you and the Missus been getting along since you both retired?” I asked.
“Doing good, trying to survive on our Social Security and pensions. That’s all going away if the TEA Party gets their way.” He added, helpfully.
Nice. He’s furnishing me with a means of locomotion and now, armed with the knowledge of their illicit procurement, I feel mildly guilty for using them. Adding to the ironic, hypocritical, monologue he takes the opportunity to share the latest MSM talking points: The ludicrous idea that the TEA Party want to take away his Social Security payments. I just looked at him, knowing better than to engage. No point in arguing with a liberal, much less a family member who’s trying to help me out in a bad situation. Besides, I know he’s trying to goad me into an argument and I’m in no mood to play. He is, unfortunately, just another blind, lemming Democrat. (Was that redundant?)
I share this story not to complain of a strained tendon, or of a semi-strained family relationship. I tell you this story to let you know 
what kind of mindset we are up against. It’s a mindset born of Generational Training. It’s a thought process devoid of thought, that still believes every drooling word from mongrel lap dogs like Chris Mathews or Maxine Waters or from Obama himself. They are the true mind-numbed robots, all too willing to believe the lies and exaggerations, regurgitated and beak-fed to them, the liberal Children of Government, unable, in their minds, to fend for themselves and utterly convinced the TEA Party wants your aged parents or grandmother homeless, without health care and barely subsisting on a diet of Alpo and crackers.
BALDERDASH!
The TEA Party is about less government, namely, less Federal Government in our lives. We don’t want to take your Social Security. The government already stole it from you without your permission or consent and, unreported by the likes of the MSM, we think you deserve to get it back, as promised. Nor do we think the poor, or disadvantaged should be forgotten. We just disagree in principle on the definitions of poor and disadvantaged. We don’t believe people on food stamps and welfare should be driving around in cars more expensive than the citizens’ that paid for them or living in houses furnished with big screen televisions and broad band internet. Those are luxury items and should be reserved for the people WHO WORK FOR THEM!
My relative has yet to realize his party left him long ago.
The TEA Party is the working class!
The TEA Party is Middle America, trying to salvage what is left of our country before it is torn apart from the inside by a wanna-be two-bit dictator and his commie cohorts.
We’re tired of politicians buying votes with our stolen money in the name of some fictitious war on poverty while they do nothing more than increase the entitlement mentality and lining their pockets with the excess.
We also think that countless illegal immigrants should not have their hands in that cookie jar either, a jar they only take from and have never contributed to.
We are tired of bailouts and corporate takeovers, of crony capitalism, of commies in congress and socialistic presidents and class warfare and of being told to shut up.
I will never shut up. You can pry this keyboard from my cold dead fingers because even though some of those zombie liberals know not what they do, they need the opportunity to learn.
Now, where’s the ice –
and the Jim Beam?
Why the Beam, you ask?
Well, aside from the obvious need for pain killing, medicinal purposes, today, 8/25/11, marks the second year anniversary of Robo-blogging. ~ Cheers!
Regime Uncertainty – Steve Wynn Was Right!
July 30, 2011 | Author robot
A few days ago, I posted a video of CEO Steve Wynn railing on the Obama administration for their socialist, anti-capitalist policies. One commenter expressed his disappointment that Mr. Wynn didn’t give any examples of how Obama’s policies are contributing to and causing the continued economic decline.
Lucky for us, iainswife, who blogs over at Shout First, Ask Questions Later and is a contributor to the fabulous Potluck blog points us to a great article in the American Spectator that provides many facts to back up Mr. Wynn’s conference call assessment of President Obama’s socialist policies.
As to what I described in the comment thread as “uncertainty,” my good friend The CL from The Classic Liberal helpfully pointed me to Robert Higgs, who, in 1997 wrote a paper coining the term “Regime Uncertainty” to describe how the socialist policies of the New Deal had a chilling effect on the recovery from the Great Depression. Those similar policies, now employed and expanded by Obama, are having the same predictably disastrous effect today.
Hopefully these links will get you on the path to understanding the effects of an over-expanding federal government, the incremental destruction of property rights that go along with larger government, the intended transformation of our capitalist economic system to a socialist one and ultimately, an understanding of the loss of liberty for the whole of any nation that implements socialistic policies and programs.
“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”
C. S. Lewis, God in the Dock, p. 292.
Our Constitution was not instituted to save us from ourselves. Our Constitution was written, mainly, to protect us from our government. It’s time we remembered that and elect people who understand it as well. The alternative is not one worth savoring.

FDA Boot up the Small Farmers’ A$$ Act of 2010
November 18, 2010 | Author robot
I posted a link yesterday urging people to call their Senators to support an amendment to the new FDA expansion being crammed through the lame duck congress at the moment. Whilst I’m waxing wishful, how’s about instead of modifying that POS legislation, we urge them to scrap it completely. I think we’ve seen what the current power hungry mongrels infesting the House and Senate are capable of. I don’t think I want any more of the like, thank you very much. No.
I know. Fat chance.
HT/ ToM
On the same lame subject, this morning’s Heritage Foundation Morning Bell cites some disturbing numbers which, combined with the recent Wall Street legislation, ObamaCare, QE2, Bailouts and reckless spending by the Democraps amount to nothing more than a Cloward/Piven-Alinski-Obama Trifecta of assault on our way of life.
So just how big an expansion of government does Dingell, Pelosi, and Reid want to inflict on the American people to combat a non-existent food safety crisis? Well, the Congressional Budget Office estimates that the legislation would require 50,000 domestic and foreign inspections in 2015, compared to just 7,400 in 2009. That is a sevenfold increase in government inspections. And the government would be reaching into a lot of new places as well. The act requires that all food “facilitiesâ€â€”including those home-based businesses that make jam, bread, and cheese for local markets—would be required to undertake periodic hazard analyses and produce “risk-based preventive controls.â€
‘bot – Personally, I really would like to see these guys sit on their hands and do nothing for the remainder of their terms.

Never met a communist he didn’t like:
Obama finds kindred spirit?
“I am glad to meet an Indian communist. I am told that communists have been part of the (Indian) political mainstream,” Obama told CPM Politburo member Sitaram Yechury at the Rashtrapati Bhawan banquet as they were introduced and both shook hands.
He might just as well have said “fellow communist.”

And while Obummer is yucking it up with his new found commie friends and Bernanke is devaluing the dollar, the World Bank president lobbies for a global currency system:

1000 Progressives in State Governments
October 1, 2010 | Author robot
UPDATE: One-Thousand Progressives, according to the PSN Letter to Obama Supporting Obamacare.
Our American society has never seen the level of corruption in evidence today. It’s as if some mind controlling parasites have infested and infiltrated every nook and cranny of our system. The deeper you go down the proverbial rabbit hole, the more tentacles you find. Across borders, oceans and economic systems it reaches to control your every movement and very existence. As an example, if you were to expound and expand on Obama, Pelosi and Reid’s new healthcare plan, they would wish to grant or deny even your right to exist, as evidenced by our federal government’s obsession with killing babies. Do any of you trust your government to the point of giving them control, Chairman Mao like, over the number of children you can have? Rest assured that a government that funds elective abortions of its citizens would jump at the chance to dictate your ability to procreate at all. That type of tyranny is one that would grant such rights by your political party affiliation or what amount of tribute you bring to their throne.
If you believe, as I do, that the Progressive/Socialist/Communist agenda is at its heart, an evil one, then you must also conclude that this movement must be stopped.
Enter the Progressive States Network. Ever heard of them?
The PSN is a network of Progressive organizations that share Obama’s goal of the “fundamental transformation of America.”
I’ve seen what that transformation looks like and I don’t like it.
How does it work?
Their plan is to introduce Progressive/Socialist legislation at the State and local levels in order to gain a foothold on those issues at the national level both in the media and in the federal legislature. In the process, they are grooming candidates for national office.
A primer:
Getting To Know Your Michigan Candidates
The Progressive States Network: What you need to know
Progressive States Network – Immigration
Progressive States Network: Distorting the Electoral Process?
The Progressive States Network: Undermining Liberty one State at a Time
The Progressive States Network: Exploiting the Crisis that Progressives Caused?
Progressive States Network: National Popular Vote
Lately, we bloggers have been focused on the national elections in our attempts to reclaim and restore our Constitutional Republic. The people who belong to the Progressive States Network are working against that goal at all levels.
Examples of the upwards activism the PSN pursues are their letters to Obama from our State legislators:
Supporting Federal Health Care Reform
State Legislators for Progressive Immigration Policy
Create Jobs, Give States Fiscal Relief
All three of these would sound innocuous to the normal Americans, but in reality, they are letters demanding that the Federal government become more involved in the States’ activities and our personal lives at a time when we need less Federal involvement in anything State or personal, with the exception of sealing the border.
From the “Jobs” letter:
…Accordingly, the federal government must take proactive steps to create jobs and enact further fiscal relief for state and local governments. This includes extending FMAP increases for Medicaid, providing additional support for education, boosting funding for infrastructure projects and public transportation investments, supporting the long-term unemployed to sustain them until they reenter the workforce, and providing direct financial assistance to state and local governments to perform the vital services needed to maintain growth in local communities across the nation…
Signing on to the “Jobs” letter from Texas are:
- Rep. Garnet Coleman (TX-147) Co-chairman of the PSN Board of Directors. Garnet was quoted recently on the Marxist emag Political Affairs. Sadly, Rep. Coleman is unopposed.
- Sen. Rodney Ellis (TX-13) Opponent: Â Michael Mauldin
- Rep. Jessica Farrar (TX-148) Opponent: Fernando Herrera
- Rep. Eddie Rodriguez (TX-51) Opponent: Marilyn Jackson
Nowhere in that letter is any mention of tax cuts or pro-business incentives for job creation, unless you count their concern for the loss of jobs in government and social services.
Government has grown too large as it is! The people who would fight for more government and social programs over actual private enterprise and real economic growth must be ousted from office at every level of government, Federal, State and local. Failure to do so, is to leave a bit of cancer in the infected host.
Those wanting to increase government dependents have been drafting recruits while we worker bees have been busy paying for their campaign through taxes for years and recently, stimulus packages re-routed to ACORN type organizations. Obama type community organizers have been training Progressive recruits how to “help moderate members of Congress†by framing Progressive issues in “palatable†ways.
An example of from the Center for Progressive Leadership
Question: Why would I need to make an issue “palatable†if it will stand on its own merit?
Answer: Because it is a lie in need of sugar coating.
Progressives are Socialists are Communists and are by definition anti-American. It’s past time everyone was made aware of their existence and agenda.
I would encourage bloggers to research these letters and the people who signed them. Find their opponents and support them. Post them in lists by state on your blogs along with their opponents.
November is coming!
Socia.list
This weekend, I plan to create a new blog page similar to the Texas 11 that, beginning with Texas, will contain a list of the State Senators and Representatives who align themselves with the PSN, along with their opposing candidates if available.
The title of that page will be Socia.list.
Catchy, don’t you think?
If anyone would like to help with compiling that list, I wouldn’t argue. Just send me a link or comment with your post’s url and after verifying, I’ll be happy to include it. BTW, Project Vote Smart is a valuable resource for finding that type of information.

Farmer’s Blues
August 3, 2010 | Author robot
My buddy The CL over at the Classic Liberal has a great post documenting the plight of some American farmers defending themselves against government raids. Another friend sent me an email that referenced one of the very same sites CL does. What a coincidence eh?
That site is the Farm to Consumer Legal Defense Fund.
Funny thing is, the farm subsidies the government has been handing out over the years has caused another problem of helping to put smaller farms out of business while paying money to people who aren’t even farmers. Here we go again with another problem caused by big government. I don’t have to wonder what their answer will be this time. More government, I’m sure.
Befrore you jump on me for using JCM’s viodeo, I’m aware that Mr. Mellencamp has a few problems of his own in the mid-west as far as government subsidies go. I just like the song.
Subsidies are just like any other government program, it starts off sold with the best of intentions, only to become the enemy of those it was meant to help.
