You might argue that liberal Democrats aren’t anti-gun or that they’re not a bunch of rights-infringing anti-American creeps, but you’d be wrong.  Despite the plentiful stories in The Armed Citizen Report where ordinary law-abiding Americans defend themselves with their lawfully owned guns, the Democrats have selected anti-gun Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz as head of the Democratic National Committee.  Yep, the new head DemocRat wants to curtail your gun rights…the same rights people in the stories below exercised.

Pike County, Ohio prosecutor Rob Junk made it easy for a journalist investigating a burglary.  In fact, the entire story was essentially one long quote from the prosecutor.”[The armed citizen] was in his home, minding his own business, when these two individuals busted in, at least one of them armed,” Junk said.  “They trained a gun on him and threatened to kill him.  The citizen later had marks on his body where they beat him.”  The homeowner retrieved a rifle and shot at the men, killing one of them.  “The bottom line is that [the criminal] would be alive if he had chosen to obey the law and not burglarize people’s houses,” said Junk.  “Most of our Pike County residents have guns.  I have several.  If somebody broke into my house, threatened me, my wife and my 5-year-old daughter, I would shoot them dead.  Most people around here feel the same way.”  (Portsmouth Daily Times, Portsmouth, Ohio, 02/15/11)

Through Rocco Bombara’s legs were amputated due to a medical condition, he is far from helpless.  “He’s not someone to mess with,” said his daughter, Nicco.  “He’s pretty tough.  He does everything on his own.”  Rocco also understands that sometimes evil men perceive the physically challenged as easy prey.  One such individual attempted to break into Bombara’s apartment while his son, daughter and several of their friends were watching television.  The intruder crawled halfway inside the window and randomly fired two shots from a rifle.  Bombara drew a handgun from his wheelchair and returned a more precise shot, killing the intruder.  (Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Pittsburgh, Pa., 01/03/11)

A couple in their sixties were awakened by loud, repeated banging on their apartment door.  They went downstairs and the husband opened the door – and an intoxicated 28-year-old man pushed them aside and entered the home.  The suspect shoved the husband and repeatedly claimed to live in the apartment, ignoring the couple’s insistence to the contrary.  The couple tried to push the man back out the door, but he punched the man in the groin and shoved the woman.  That’s when the husband informed the intruder he had a gun and would shoot him if he didn’t leave; however, the intruder remained relentless in his assault.  The husband fired a shot, killing him.  (Lansing State Journal, Lansing, Mich., 02/05/11)

Upon having his slumber disturbed by the sound of breaking glass, a homeowner quickly retrieved his pistol.  He walked down the hall and discovered two men forcing the front door open.  He shouted at them, demanding they identify themselves.  The men did not reply, but continued breaking in – that is, until the homeowner shot one of them with his .45-cal. pistol.  Police found the wounded burglar lying on the ground outside the home and arrested him; his accomplice had already fled. (The Times, Ottawa, Ill., 01/21/11)

It was less than a year ago that Chicago’s government was forced to repeal many of its rights-infringing laws, and a southside resident recently joined the growing list of armed citizens owing their lives to the Supreme Court’s ruling.  Hearing glass breaking in her basement, a 45-year-old got her handgun and confronted two intruders already inside the home.  “I was scared for my life,” she explained.  “I’ve never been so scared before in my entire life.”  One of the men wielded a tire iron, and the woman opened fire upon him.  He fell and died.  His accomplice fled.  “I thank God that I’m still here,” the woman said. (The Chicago Tribune, Chicago, Ill., 02/21/11)

When 70-year-old Watson Green discovered a man attempting to break into his home late one evening, he immediately called 9-1-1 and got his handgun.  Green advised the 9-1-1 operator that he was armed.  The operator told him to put the gun away and wait for police but Green chose to do otherwise.  In fear of his life, Green fired a single shot, killing the suspect.  Two weeks prior to his death, the suspect was arrested for burglary in a separate incident.  “We’ve had a lot of break-ins in Hobbs lately,” said Hobbs, N.M., Police Officer Mike Stone.  “The residents of the home were probably scared.” (KRQE-TV, Albuquerque, N.M., 02/23/11)

The Armed Citizen Report: December 2010

It might be hard for you to believe but I still have people tell me how horrible George W. Bush’s presidency was when it comes to unemployment.  A very liberal, retired union member whose name I won’t use (GH) claimed that unemployment under Bush was over 8%!  I can only guess where he got that number but like most libs that attempt to use facts he got them wrong and couldn’t/wouldn’t source the data.  The table below comes directly from the U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics which…is under the Obama administration’s control…not the Bush (or Cheney) administration.

As you can see, the Bush unemployment numbers are far better than the Obama administration.  The libs will still scream, “It’s Bush’s Fault,” but it’s worth noting that the highest unemployment numbers during Bush’s tenure occurred after the Democrats regained the majority in the House of Representatives and Senate during the 2006 mid-term elections and they’ve gone up ever since.

John Maynard Keynes, Economist

The liberals, progressives, elitists, and marxists who support President Barack Hussein Obama usually take every opportunity to make personal attacks on anyone who is conservative or an anti-Obama critic. That’s especially true if a critic or conservative dares to provide indisputable facts about, or express any well founded criticism regarding, President Obama’s policies.  The usual liberal response is to quickly say how stupid, uneducated, and uninformed the conservative/critic is.  They clearly believe that they are the intellectual elite and everyone else is part of the mental midget society.

Recently a number of President Obama’s ardent supporters were caught on video expressing their opinions of a sign at the Restoring Sanity Rally in Washington, D.C. that simply asked “Obama = Keynesian?”  Here at Happily American we are very well aware that the sign was asking about President Obama’s economic policies and philosophies, and whether they were influenced by British economist John Maynard Keynes but apparently the President’s supporters were not.  It seems they were confused and thought the sign was commenting on the President’s place of birth (some say Kenya).  Whether these highly intelligent democrats had difficulty seeing the sign, can’t be bothered to distinguish between Kenyan and Keynesian, or have some other intellectual impediment has not been determined….but the results are hilarious!  Intellectual elite indeed!

To be fair, education in the United States isn’t very strong now days in the subjects of economics, geography, or even reading.  So, who could blame these poor minions of the great and powerful Barack for not being able to distinguish between Kenyan and Keynesian?

Just Say "No!" To Voting DemocRat

It’s a simple question, “Why Would Minorities Vote Democrat?”  I ask this question because elections are once again upon us and with elections come the accusations regarding which political party took actions against or for a particular group.  As usual the Democrats are trying to paint Republicans as a bunch of racists while portraying themselves (falsely) as saviors coming to the rescue of minorities.  The Democrats are not now, nor have they ever been, friends to minorities.

There are two things I always find strange about Democrats posing as Knights fighting on behalf of minorities.  The first thing I find strange is that Republicans often don’t challenge the Democrats very well when it comes to their record defending minority rights.  The second thing that’s strange is that minority voters often buy into the Democrat’s story despite historical fact.  For instance, it’s historical fact that Democrats were Knights when it came to minorities all right…Knights of the Ku Klux Klan (KKK).  The KKK was founded by and operated by Democrats who did everything they could to terrorize minorities and suppress the political power of minorities.  The video explains:

Since the days of the KKK nothing much has changed in the Democrat party.  You might find that statement odd considering we now have a black President and members of the Democrat party reflect all ethnic groups and liberal ways of life, but if you look closely you’ll see that the policies they promulgate serve to keep minorities voting Democrat and dependent on government in general.

Is President Obama planning to suspend the 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution or is he just less intelligent that the liberal media would have us believe? I’m not sure how he would accomplish the suspension of the 22nd Amendment but he hasn’t really been paying much attention to the Constitution.  As for his intelligence…he doesn’t seem any smarter than Jimmy Carter.  You decide after you watch the video below:

If you’ve ever wondered about the intelligence of people who voted for Barack Hussein Obama in the 2008 Presidential election you need to watch the video below. In the video below Peggy West, a Democrat county supervisor in Milwaukee is speaking in support of boycotting the State of Arizona because of the new immigration law (SB1070). The problem is that she apparently doesn’t know that Arizona is having problems with criminal immigrants because Arizona borders Mexico.

See the video of Peggy West, County Supervisor embarrassing herself

Do you know why Democrats in the media and government like to spread malicious lies about conservatives being intolerant and violent when they gather at Tea Party meetings or anywhere else? It’s because they believe everyone shares their point of view and their willingness to shout down and even physically attack anyone they deem a political or ideological opponent. That’s certainly the case with Congressman Bob Etheridge the Democrat representative from North Carolina’s second district as seen in this video.

Clearly the Congressman must have believed that the student was engaging in an unamerican act for daring to ask if he, a U.S. Congressman, supported the Obama agenda.  To a Democrat that seems to be the ultimate sin…questioning Obama and the Democrats…and it warrants a physical attack.  Next time you hear about “potential violence” from Tea Party gatherings just remember Congressman Bob Etheridge.

Obama Flips Off Americans

If you’ve ever listened to talk radio I’m sure you’ve heard some remarkably unintelligent sounding liberal callers who sound like they’re reading Democ-Rat talking points on health care reform.  Do you know why they sound that way?  Simple, they are reading talking points!  That’s right, they’re reading talking points from a website – BARACKOBAMA.COM – because they’re too stupid to form their own arguments.

Liberals are given three steps on completing the talk radio call in process.  The first step, “Listen, Then Call” orders the activist to listen to the show using a link to listen online, and gives them the ability to select a different show if they can’t get through to the first one they pick.  The liberal caller can select from variety of shows including Sean Hannity, Fred Thompson, The Savage Nation, and the Dennis Miller Show among others.  The second step called “Add Your Voice” tells the caller “Use the discussion points on the right in your conversation”.  The final step is to “Report Your Call” where the compliant left-winger sends a report about their call to President Obama’s website via email.

The website also includes “Calling Tips” telling the progressive activist caller to “Be polite” (usually ignored), and “Stay calm and firm” if the host challenges their views (Obama’s views actually).

Mystery solved.  Liberal callers anxious to spend your money to provide health care for liberals and uninsured illegal aliens are getting their marching orders from the Socialist in Chief (Peace Be Upon Him).  I’d tell you how to fight back against this but as a conservative you are able to do it yourself.

Following the tragic murders of 13 soldiers and an unborn baby at Fort Hood, Texas by an American-born muslim terrorist it was predictable that liberals would downplay the killer’s islamic faith and accuse everyone else of over reacting.  One example occurred on liberal talk radio (Air America) on the “Montel Across America” show hosted by Montel Williams on November 9, 2009.

We pulled something like this back in World War II when we decided to round up all Japanese Americans and put them in internment camps…The [anti-Muslim] rhetoric… could get out of hand. What do you think?

The rhetoric could get out of hand?  Where? The Obama administration and the news media downplayed Major Hasan’s muslim faith and his shouting Allahu Akbar before firing at unarmed people.  Even the FBI jumped in before they even arrived on the scene to state they didn’t think it was a terrorist act.  So where is this out-of-control rhetoric leading to new internment camps being aired?  After what seems like endless hours of news coverage I haven’t seen any anti-muslim backlash that even suggests new internment camps are in our future.  But if we assume that somehow Montel Williams is right and there is rhetoric that’s getting out of hand somewhere…then he might have a point because there are some interesting similarities between 1942 when the Japanese were placed in internment camps and today.

1. The U.S. was attacked by a specific group of people and thousands of Americans died;
2. The President of the United States (who ordered internment) was a liberal Democrat who attended Harvard;
3. There was a severe economic crisis the Democrat President tried to fix by massive over spending;
4. The House of Representatives had a Democrat majority;
5. The Senate had a Democrat majority.

So, it appears that some of the ingredients needed to revisit the injustice of internment camps do exist.  Maybe Montel IS right.

If you’ve been under a self-imposed blackout of state-run left-wing media you may have missed it.  “It” is the coverage of President Obama taking time out of his busy day to fly to Copenhagen an pitch Chicago as the location of the 2016 Summer Olympics to the International Olympic Committee (IOC).  He failed…completely.  Therefore, on my FaceBook Page I assembled the most likely excuses you’ll hear for the miserable failure by Obama.

Obama’s Top Five Reasons Chicago Didn’t Get The Olympics as Presented by his Apologists:

5. The IOC didn’t recognize Michelle’s great sacrifice.

4. The world is mad we had Pedophile Rapist Roman Polanski arrested.

3. Our Chickens…have come home…to roost.

2. I inherited this Olympic bid from the previous administration.

…and number 1…

1. The IOC is a bunch of racists.

With these excuses in place what can we look forward to in the liberal state-run media?  First, we can all expect to hear about how it’s George Bush’s fault for some reason.  We can all look forward to the article by left-wing race-baiter Maureen Dowd saying she heard each vote against Chicago as “Go Home…Boy”.  And, people like failed former President Jimmy Carter, nearly invisible former Vice President Walter Mondale, and Bill Cosby will be shuffling yet another deck of race cards.
