In an interview last October, seen here on Youtube, Carly Fiorina speaks of writing a book called “Tough Choices” and claims honesty and transparency are her paramount ventures. In the interview, she tells of having seen tragedy in her life, and battled cancer, and opines about public scrutiny saying, “you realize that it doesn’t matter what people say about you if you are comfortable in your own skin, and comfortable with your own choices and comfortable with your own life, and I am…um, bring it on.” However, this may belie a penchant to ignore the cares and will of the public in a sort of quasi authoritarian role of “Carly knows best, and the heck with what the public thinks about it.”

This is reminiscent of Obama and many other leftist leaning politicians.

When asked about her platform, and what might differentiate her from Barbara Boxer, she responded “the things that matter to me right now are opportunity and accountability…California, this is a place that is all about opportunity, I started my business career as a secretary, I know how important opportunity is…and yet I also know that opportunities don’t just happen, opportunities can be created through the policies of government, or they can be killed through the policies of government. And if you look at, for example, what has happened in California this is a state that used to be a place where it was easy to come and have a great idea and start a new business, but it’s not so easy here anymore.”

These words clearly expose her belief that government should be given the power to stimulate the economy and regulate what the free markets can and cannot do. Regardless of how she words it, she is just stating the same thing the last corrosive regime did...before again toppling the economy: "oh, but this time we are going to get it right." However, the fact is that the government is not allowed to manipulate the economy, nor attempt to control it and use it as a weapon or technology generating tool to serve government interests, and doing so will always be destructive to this country  in myriad ways.

She goes on to say, “Opportunity to me is all about how do we make it easier for entrepreneurs, innovators, and small business owners to form their business, grow, prosper, hire.” However, this is expressly prohibited of government according to the U.S. Constitution. This is a free market, and Carly Fiorina still does not seem to get just exactly what that means.

She say’s accountability is one of her concerns because she feels that “Washington in not accountable enough.” she says “if you think about it, if Washington were a business, it would be a business that asked for more money every year, and never told you what they were spending it on. I mean we wouldn’t accept it, and yet that’s what’s going on, and technology…is a wonderful tool for creating an environment of greater accountability because it forces greater transparency.”

This statement by Fiorina definitely borders on creepy, and is one of the more disturbing public sentiments that has come from a would be politician lately. So just what kind of surveillance might Fiorina be envisioning as part of her accountable world? Certainly once she is in office it will have nothing to do with transparency for the government, and everything to do with the invasion of the private sector. All one needs to do is research the track record of every other political whack-job like her that was elected to public office. They use their incentive approach to technology to entice the voter, while veiling an authoritarian agenda that turns out to be even worse than those they claimed to oppose in order to garner the support of unwitting voters.

As far as Washington policy that might affect California, Fiorina gives two examples “San Diego happens to be a growing center for biotech. Biotech is an incredibly important industry that we should lead in, we as a nation should lead in.” This exposes her intention to further the invasive aims of the Federal Government, and expect to do so from a position of authority, rather than allowing the markets and consumers to decide what businesses will proliferate. This is where the government has been meddling in, and masticating on, the private sector for decades, and this will turn out to be just one more area of research from which Fiorina and her cronies will seek to create weapons and surveillance technology that will prove more detrimental to society than anything.

She goes on to say “when the sales package came out earlier this year (2009) there wasn’t any money for biotech, and yet there was plenty of money for construction, it strikes me that we need to change our point of view about the kinds of investments that are important to this nation’s competitiveness…in the 21^st century and around the world.” If this does not sound like a power hungry despot opining about the ability to employ government as a tool of “soft tyranny” -- something expressly prohibited by the U.S. Constitution -- then nothing is. This lady sounds like a closet dictator who will use any power she is given to force the nation to take whatever course she deems critical, regardless of the will of the people or the constitution. Very scary indeed.

She gives another example saying “When General Motors and Chrysler were bailed out, you know, lots of conversation in Washington, billions and billions of dollars to bail out essentially big business and big labor. The same week those bail outs were announced 3,600 auto dealerships were put out of business. They received pink slips from GM and Chrysler. With those 3,600 dealerships, 156,000 people lost their jobs. Those 3,600 dealerships were small community based businesses, and the 156,000 employees who lost their jobs was a higher number than all of the direct employees of GM and Chrysler who lost their jobs, and yet nobody in Washington said a word…because the small businesses don’t have the ‘voice of big lobbies and big labor’” going on to say “small businesses makeup half of the businesses in this nation and created two thirds of the jobs…small business owners are the engine of the American dream.”

So why does Fiorina intend to grow the government, and increase its power over the private sector, and as such expect to dictate to these small business owners and entrepreneurs as to how to compete in the market, and where to direct their attention? Regardless of how well meaning she may be, her ideas are just as destructive as the rest of the "career politicians" she previously denigrated. Amazing how she can say with one side of her face that other well meaning politicians are just inept, but with the other side of ther face claim that her well meaning meddling is different.

An ex-CEO of Hewlett Packard, Carly Fiorina say’s that she laughed at the thought of running for office, and that many people had been encouraging her to do so for “some time.”

She claims to be a conservative, and say’s “it has become clear that the work of the Senate is very important and that it touches every business and every family in America.” But it appears that she is going to do all she can to further the reach of said Senate. She sounds more and more like a closet liberal every day.

Unfortunately, the voters in California are likely to be swayed by her “at least I’m better than Barbara Boxer” campaign. And as much as this author would agree, on the contrary, Fiorina will also bring enough of her own baggage wherein the only plus to all of this is the fact that she will not be so deeply entrenched in the current political machine.

However, it seems prudent to assume that she will also bring with her a whole new set of megalomaniacal monsters that the people will be forced to do battle with. At least with Boxer, the people already know what they are dealing with, and thus have a few ideas of just how to get the straight jacket on that whack-job.

Fiorina also says that she is proud to say that she has friends on both sides of the aisle in the Senate. Which just proves that she is less of a maverick and business rival than people believe, and more of the same old political rhetoric they are sick and tired of. She goes on to say “but most of the people in the Senate, just as most of the people in Congress, have been professional politicians, they’ve done nothing else in their life other than be in politics.” She says it is best if people in public life also know something of the private sector, such as technology or running a business.

The consummate politician, Fiorina say’s “It is not as if people in the Senate are not well intentioned and effective in many ways, but they have a different perspective.” She says that over the last several years she has spent a fair amount of time in Washington in advisory positions, but what has she done to help fight the socialist steamroller that the Democrats appear all too comfortable employing?

This article is in no way complete, but this author is pressed for time. However, it appears that further along in the interview Fiorina say's that she believes that "the internet is a wild-west sort of territory that must be regulated by the government" which exposes her as a first amendment-attacking, gun-grabbing, anti-American socialist who will further seek to implement policies that are destructive to this nation.

It appears Carly Fiorina may very well be just one more dogmatic, power-hungry carpetbagger who is again attempting to buy America’s vote.

Rand Paul, son of the U.S. Congresses premier libertarian and patriot Ron Paul, has easily won the Republican nomination for Senator of Kentucky.

He was victorious in an atmosphere that many likely felt daunting at best. Paul was, for most of the race, considered “the long shot”. However, there are many in this nation who would easily disagree with such a label, and they would be correct for many reasons.

It appears that not only are the establishment politicians preposterously pragmatic, ignorantly indifferent, repugnantly arrogant, and constitutionally illiterate, they are extremely out of step with the American people.

For anyone in the Republican party to have believed that a Dick Cheney endorsement of Ray Grayson would garner the ex-Secretary of State any support by more than a select few diplomatically nascent voters and dusty relics, is astonishing. Any connection to Cheney will likely be nothing short of the kiss of death for most any politician, since the awakening that has gripped the majority of this nation’s voters.

This is just one more example that the government in this nation is astonishingly inept.

Much is being made of the Tea Party movement and its influence during this and other upsets across the nation. And as much as it is true that the Tea Partiers are an extremely formidable force for a myriad reasons, the fact is that the Obama administration’s lockstep with the Bush administration, and increase of national instability accordingly, has made many enemies of the voters for both parties, and is going to cost them dearly this midterm.

Furthermore, the main stream media’s obsequious pandering to government interests, global warming proponents, New World Order oligarchs, racist sensationalists, and bombastic liars, have proven the majority of the nation’s bureaucracy to be entirely unaccountable, ineffective and disloyal to the American public.

It is astonishing that so many politicians believe that people who march in the streets are powerful, and are to be supported in an effort to gain votes, or create for them some image of a candidate of the people. However, one must be discerning enough to choose the support of those who are marching in the streets for a patriotic reason, with the intention of bringing to attention the will of the people and the power of the United Sates Constitution. And be careful to avoid aligning one’s self with the contrary groups who are merely expecting to force changes in the nation by demanding that their own personal agendas be complied with, and attempting to look sympathetic to the people without regard to the implications of legality or constitutional ethics.

Voters are wise enough to realize that Rand Paul will bring to the office the same staunch adherence to the Constitution that his father has exhibited for decades in the United States Congress. One does not need to question the intentions of the man, nor worry that he is hiding some personal agenda.

Every public official in this nation is required to take an oath to protect, uphold and defend the constitution of this nation, for a very specific and critical reason. Because human beings are fallible, and at various times can find themselves unable to disseminate just what is the best course of action.

Fortunately, this nation’s founding fathers were wise enough to create a template for guiding one’s daily course as an American citizen. The many inalienable rights that are afforded these citizens are those which present as negative rights for the government. This means that all politicians only need follow the tenets of this document in order to properly, and equitably, serve the greater good of the people, and in so doing, the nation. 

These negative rights are the set of rules that stipulate just what the government is NOT allowed to do, and all other allowances (ie, rights) are reserved to the various states, and those citizens who call them home. 

The United States’ Constitutional Republic and its concordant Government are not easy entities to screw up, and what is absolutely deplorable is the way in which those who now populate its rotting corpse have mismanaged and degraded it to a populist realm ruled by miscreant sophists who expect to wield their responsibilities and accountabilities as weapons of mass manipulation, playing them off of the people like personal attributes, and driving them into the collective soil of society as spires of power and lordship, taking root in the fertile foundation of this nation like some choking weed born of ivy league slave drivers.

Witnessing the smug looks and lurking eyes of the average politician are like watching a storybook villain assume the role of hero in some quasi cloak and dagger realm of morbidly proletarian plagiarism. They stand there in front of the cameras, flaccid and laughably stoic, like a grinning python, preposterously deceptive and expertly inept.

Schwarzenegger, Pelosi, Boxer, Clinton, Obama, Rice, Cheney and so many others portray an incredulous air of feigned legitimacy as they lawyer-up on the public and refuse to let even one molecule of truth squeak out from their fanged and flatulent anuses…bowing to the authoritarian and criminal status quo with sycophant eyes, drooling at the very thought of torturing the masses as they bilk the nation for everything they can possibly get their greedy hands on.

This country will not suffer such ilk for much longer, and the factbat website will be entering the fray of this election season with as much precision as possible.

It’s a great time to be a true American. My hat is off to Rand Paul and his supporters who “made it happen” in Kentucky.
