READ AND DIGEST WHAT A TRUE AMERICAN THINKS.



LEE is Back

This is for all Americans, no matter what party!

Lee is back....
Would you believe that Lee Iacocca is 94 years old and is still KICKIN’ butt? Check out his latest rant. Just as true today as it was when his book first came out. He was, and still is, a brilliant businessman!


Often we need to be reminded of Iacocca's words, Remember Lee Iacocca, the man who rescued Chrysler Corporation from its death throes? He's now 94 years old and has a new book , 'Where Have All The Leaders Gone?'.


Lee Iacocca Says:


"Am I the only guy in this country who's fed up with what's happening? Where the hell is our outrage with this so called
president? We should be screaming bloody murder! We've got a gang of tax c***ting clueless l*****ts trying to
steer our ship of state right over a cliff, we've got corporate gangsters stealing us blind, and we can't even run a ridiculous cash-for-clunkers program without losing $26 billion of the taxpayers' money, much less build a hybrid car.


But instead of getting mad, everyone sits around and nods their heads when the politicians say, 'trust me, the economy is getting better.


Better?


What the Hell! You've got to be kidding. This is America, not the damned Titanic'. I'll give you a sound bite: 'Throw all the Democrats out, along with Obama!' You might think I'm getting senile, that I've gone off my rocker, and maybe I have. But someone has to speak up. I hardly recognize this country anymore. The most famous business leaders are not the innovators but the guys in handcuffs.


While we're fiddling in Afghanistan, Iran is completing their nuclear bombs and missiles and nobody seems to know what to do.


The liberal press is waving 'pom-poms' instead of asking hard questions. That's not the promise of the 'America' my parents and yours traveled across the ocean for. I've had enough. How about you? I'll go a step further. You can't call yourself a patriot if you're not outraged. This is a fight I'm ready and willing to have. The Biggest 'C' is Crisis! (Iacocca elaborates on nine C's of leadership, with crisis being the first.) Leaders are made, not born. Leadership is forged in times of crisis. It's easy to sit there with thumb up your butt and talk theory. Or send someone else's kids off to war when you've never seen a battlefield yourself. It's another thing to lead when your world comes tumbling down. On September 11, 2001 , we needed a strong leader more than any other time in our history. We needed a steady hand to guide us out of the ashes.


We're immersed in a bloody war now with no plan for winning and no plan for leaving, but our soldiers are dying daily.


We're running the biggest deficit in the history of the world, and it's getting worse every day!


We've lost the manufacturing edge to Asia, while our once-great companies are getting slaughtered by health care costs.


This country has the largest oil reserves in the WORLD, and we cannot drill for it because the politicians have been bought by the tree-hugging environmentalists.


Our schools are in a complete disaster because of the teachers' union.


Our borders are like sieves and they want to give all illegal’s amnesty and free healthcare.


The middle class is being squeezed to death every day.


These are times that cry out for leadership. But when you look around, you've got to ask: Where have all the leaders gone? Where are the curious, creative communicators?


Where are the people of character, courage, conviction, omnipotence, and common sense? I may be a sucker for alliteration, but I think you get the point.
Name me a leader who has a better idea for homeland security than making us take off our shoes in airports and throw away our shampoo? We've spent billions of dollars building a huge new bureaucracy, and all we know how to do is react to things that have already happened.


Everyone's hunkering down, fingers crossed, hoping the government will make it better for them. Now, that's just crazy.
Deal with life. Name me an industry leader who is thinking creatively about how we can restore our competitive edge in manufacturing.


Who would have believed that there could ever be a time when 'The Big Three' referred to Japanese car companies? How did this happen, and more important, look what Obama did about it.


Name me a government leader who can articulate a plan for paying down the debt, or solving the energy crisis, or managing the health care problem. The silence is deafening.


But these are the crises that are eating away at our country and milking the middle class dry. I have news for the Chicago gangsters in Congress.


We didn't elect you to turn this country into a losing European Socialist state. What is everybody so afraid of? That some bonehead on NBC or CNN news will call them a name? Give me a break. Why don't you guys show some spine for a change? Had Enough? Hey, I'm not trying to be the voice of gloom and doom here.


I'm trying to light a fire. I'm speaking out because I have hope - I believe in America...


In my lifetime, I've had the privilege of living through some of America 's greatest moments. I've also experienced some of our worst crises:


The 'Great Depression,' World War II,' 'the 'Korean War,' the 'Kennedy Assassination,' the 'Vietnam War,' the 1970's oil crisis, and the struggles of recent years since 9/11.


Make your own contribution by sending this to everyone you know and care about.


For, it is your country, folks, and it's your future and your progeny.


My / Our future is at stake!

Lee is off his rocker. He wants to "pay down the debt".

The debt held by the public is the wealth held by the public. He has a good chunk of it himself.

Ine******y can easily be cured by a progressive estate tax, which he would v**e against.

There is nothing wrong with this country that Congressional spending can't cure.

Dump the deficit hawks. Invest $1T annually in infrastructure for schools, roads, bridges, health care, etc., etc.

Cure the diseases. Free health care for all!

Free universities, including living expenses, for every good student, just like France and Germany.

Make this a paradise on earth!

Spend like China spends. They have no harmful inflation so it has to work.

Ask the c*******ts how they do it.

lindajoy Loc: right here with you....

Off his rocker or not I say BRAVOOOOOOOOOO for what he said........At 94 yrs old I think he's seen and lived a thing or two in is lifetime and has a pretty good idea of what's goen down, gone down and yet coming..........

Forkbassman Loc: Missouri

All the more reason to get a real leader in office: Dr. Ben Carson, a common sense man with no agenda except to get us back on track.

lindajoy Loc: right here with you....

I sure like what he has to say, but no firm decision yet~~ :thumbup:

Forkbassman Loc: Missouri

I think he'll run but the problem will be RINOs. They have their picks and I doubt if Carson is one of them. Personally, Carson/ Huckabee or Gowdy would be a great team. I'm going to hear Huck in person next week at a college fundraiser and Carson is still travelling the country speaking and literally recruiting thousands of volunteers for his campaign of which I am one. It will be a very difficult road ahead for him but we must have a leader like him in '16 or we are doomed, I fear.

JMHO Loc: Utah

More FAILED Keynesian economics bullcrap. Blah...blah...blah...yawn...ho hum...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

lindajoy Loc: right here with you....

Huck is out for me and Gowdy would be a top notch AG!! If the R's take it I surely hope he's in running contention for it later.......
Nothing personal against Huck, he's just too much old school politics for me...I don't want another "blend in with them", I want an"in your face, screw you if its against our Country and Constitution"....

Edit added, and please excuse my language but its what I feel.......

Are you sure you are who you say you are. It sounds like your (not mine) illustrious leader talking.

America Only Loc: From the right hand of God

You are a 100% bonafide insane pile of s**t. MOVE to China or Russia...do it NOW get the hell out of the United States you t*****r.

cesspool jones Loc: atlanta

you suffer from an incurable mental a******lty caller 'paradise in utopialand', my friend. paradise is expensive because you must eliminate what we have, then start over, which costs money. they did a great job over in europe when they all became 'one. 'how'd that work out? the only country over there with any money on hand iz germany. you think that would work over here?...think twice then post once and make some sense this time. and by the way...'star trek' was not real.

If FDR had spent as much money in 1933 on the Interstate Highway System as he did spend in 1943 on World War II, would not the Great Depression have ended in 1934 just as it ended in 1944 with 100 million Americans working double shifts and weekends and saving enough money to buy cars and homes and build our suburbs and to strengthen our nation against its foes and thus save the lives of thousands of Americans during the war and establish prosperity for 35 post-war years without harmful inflation???

Answer that question or STFU !!!
