Dakota Beacon

What we have descended into is a whole political party which stands, really, for nothing.  It seeks power to have power.  It is a political party, nominally for the “working poor,” whose real backers are billionaires and Hollywood multi-millionaires.  Once principled politicians, who chose to call themselves Democrats, tried to protect the folks back home, because they perceived a moral duty to their constituents. 

Now these Brown Nose Democrats, seeing the vast powers Obama has collected, the monolithic power of the Leftist media and academia, and the lure of becoming nabob in the new regime, seek only to stay in power, growing rich (in that inexplicable way that congressmen always seem to do), and have a real home not in some city of Flyover Country, but rather in the Imperial City, Washington.  Blue Dog Democrats are a dying breed.  Brown Nose Democrats are the wave of the future.

Representative Earl Pomeroy has joined the ranks of those either deceptive or ignorant politicians by making claims that give a distorted picture to North Dakota citizens when Representative Pomeroy claims that the nation’s health care system is in need of a reform, with an estimated 47 million uninsured Americans.

Listening to Obama and the Democrats talk about portability, coverage for all, saving money, ….etc., you have to wonder how anyone could oppose such benevolence. But the devil is in the details and Hell is the reality. This health care fraud is about far more than the left is letting on. Watching the goings on in the U.S. House Ways and Means Committee as the H.R. 3200 is refined and constructed tells the real story.Also, here is the most undeniable evidence that the Democrats will use taxpayer money to kill the unborn. Their intent can not be any more clear. This is how you can find out what ObamaScare is really all about.

When Earl Pomeroy does the right thing he deserves what he deserves. BRAVO EARL!

How did the health-care debate decay to the point where we think it entirely natural for the central government to fix a collective figure for what 300 million freeborn citizens ought to be spending on something as basic to individual liberty as their own bodies?

Freedom is messy. In free societies, people will fall through the cracks – drink too much, eat too much, buy unaffordable homes, fail to make prudent provision for health care and much else. But the price of being relieved of all those tiresome choices by a benign paternal government is far too high.

NO GOOD DEED GOES UNPUNISHED, “FARGO” stereotype, “BUFFALO COMMONS”, POPPER PREDICTIONS, DAKOTA PRAIRIE ORGANIC FLOUR, “A WHOLE BUNCH OF MINI-DEVILS LAKES”, “THE TALLEST MAN IN THE WORLD”, various DAKTOIDS.

“And it came to pass in the Age of Insanity that the people of the land called America , having lost their morals, their initiative, and their will to defend their liberties, chose as their Supreme Leader that person known as “The One”.

Who is racist? When is ethnic reference truly racism? Keeping the intellectual integrity of the conservative movement intact is so important. Defending Barbara Boxer may be tough must be done when needed.

The Federal Reserve System is fraudulent. Whatever its stated purpose, its effective purpose is to create a mechanism of deficit spending by politicians, through the insidious invisible taxation of monetary debasement (aka inflation). With printed money, the Government can buy services for its voters before the effects of inflation are felt. It is then the voters whose money buys less the following year, as the new money has raised prices, and they are none the wiser.

Obama is now mandating that The Fed is to have more oversight, more authority and control over the markets of the United States. If we can learn anything from The Fed, it’s that the best way to succeed as a politician is to stretch one’s failure over a long enough period that people won’t remember it.

Savage Banned to Fill White Man Quota - Figures such as Savage and Levant stand in the vanguard.  The ultimate goal of the thought police’s minions in government, Hollywood, the media, academia and various homosexual and Moslem advocacy groups is not to restrict us to our own borders.  It is to restrict us within them, and with every victory their iron burka descends ever lower over those who speak Truth.  And if the powerful in the media can be silenced, the rest of us won’t stand a chance. 

With rising public concern, shouldn’t congress take its time and get it right? Shouldn’t Obama at least take as long revising health care as he took to select his puppy for the White House -- six months?

In the article in the Bismarck Tribune today (July 26, 2009), “Analysis: What they saw during the Gates arrest” the long arm of GM (Government Media) flexes to smooth Obama’s racially charged missteps. Right on time, right on cue. Fear and the racial healer. NOT! With friends like this…....

Congress today announced that the office of President of the United States of America will be outsourced to India as of September 1, 2009.

Northern Plains National Heritage Area’s Dubious Designation and Long-term Effects: How was this done? What was the reason? Are property rights at risk? How come no one told you? Is there criminality involved?

For everyone other than the President, what happened at Professor Gates’ house is not entirely clear.

Except perhaps that:

“Roses are red

Violets are blue

Victims are black

Like 2 Live Crew.”

ND congressmen must walk a tight line…..SENATORS CONRAD AND DORGAN face a similar dilemma….. The Indian reservations in ND seem to go through definite political cycles….. The Forum’s Jack Zaleski almost always has clear opinions….. BISMARCK TRIBUNE EDITOR JOHN IRBY pursues a different style, often preferring a high level of ambiguity that leads to discussion about who and what he is writing about….. Fargo Forum and GF Herald (sister papers) sometimes run into each other as they go opposite directions over the NATIONAL HERITAGE AREA….. “The ambulance will not be coming,” that was Lloyd Omdahl’s message….. “Road Trip America” recommends three destinations in ND

How long will it take before there is no one in the U.S. who believes anything Barack (Pants On Fire) Obama says? The Associated Press lists the obfuscations from his July 22, 2009 presser. And, now, even the socialists have had enough of what they term, “Evasions and Lies”.

Steve Strege has been on the board of a self-funded health trust for 15 years.  The main drivers of increased health care cost are an aging population and demand for new and expensive technologies, including drugs.  He asks the question of how more government in that mix will save money without diminishing quality.

Bernie Madoff was sentenced to 150 years in prison for running a Ponzi scheme that defrauded investors out of $50 billion.  Meanwhile our federal government runs the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time, Social Security which is headed for a catastrophic meltdown! Why more government?

Telling the home state folks that he opposes the Democrat’s socialistic health care reform…and that he will not vote for the law…..It seem that he likes plenty of it. But votes against Congressmen being required to use what they are designing for you?

Apparently desperate for listeners or viewers on television and radio Ed (Expletive) Schultz resorts to his standards of bragging, profanity, and name calling trying to get someone to listen to him. Calling Rush a “fat pig” and that he can “kick his a**”? This is getting kind of hard to watch.

The patterns are already ominously clear.  Legislators, quite literally, vote for legislation not yet written (which rather sounds like Hitler’s Enabling Act.)  Judicial nominees make only the vaguest pretense of adhering to ideals of impartial administration of justice (Hispanic Justice and Aryan Justice sound different, but they are not.)  Now commissars are replacing cabinet secretaries – and we should stop letting Obama define the changes.  He is not appointing dozens of “czars.”  He is creating a party-state system of political commissars.

Knowing that the North Dakota media will never know, nor even if they do, ever mention what our homeboy is doing in D.C. Representative Pomeroy tells us one thing for local consumption and then does what Nancy Pelosi, Barney Frank, Stenny Hoyer, and the congressional leftists need done. And no one seems to know!
