"Do not blame Caesar"
"Do not blame Caesar, blame the people of Rome who have so enthusiastically acclaimed and adored him and rejoiced in their loss of freedom and danced in his path and gave him triumphal processions and laughed delightedly at his licentiousness and thought it very superior of him to acquire vast amounts of gold illicitly. Blame the people who hail him when he speaks in the Forum of the 'new, wonderful good society' which shall now be Rome's, interpreted to mean 'more money, more ease, more security, more living fatly at the expense of the industrious.' Julius was always an ambitious villain, but he is only one man." ---- Marcus Tullius Cicero

November 7th -- The Aftermath
Well, Barack Obama is still Pharaoh.
And that is not a good thing.
The squishy Massachusetts Moderate Mitt Romney tried his best not to offend anyone during his Presidential campaign, and he ended up appealing to almost no one. But taking into account the fact that Democrats tend to cheat heavily in elections, it is quite possible that Romney actually won Ohio and Virginia and Florida and did, indeed, win the election.
However, elections have consequences, and the consequences of this election are so severe that our country will probably not survive it. The looting of the Treasury by the Obama Administration will probably cause a collapse of all economic activity, which in turn will lead to massive unemployment, starvation, a skyrocketing crime rate, armed insurrection in the streets, and eventually a global depression and multiple world wars.
America is now reaping the whirlwind of decades of horrific liberal governmental policies. The two policies most directly responsible for last nights results are abortion and illegal immigration.
Legal abortion in this country destroyed between 40 to 60 million productive future Americans, and along with them all their potential future offspring. So we are basically missing about 80 million Americans right now. That lack of exponential manpower for the subsequent generation caused a labor shortage. The solution, illegal immigration, may be what truly dooms us as a nation. The Reagan Amnesty given to 3 million illegal immigrants in the 1980s only encouraged more of it. The next wave of illegal immigrants certainly brought with them a work ethic -- I don't deny that -- but they did not bring with them American values or respect for our laws. After all, why should they?
They are encouraged to continue their lawbreaking by a tyrant named Barack Obama, who leads by example and enjoys violating our laws daily. Obama is such a vile monster that he will protect his own two illegal immigrant relatives from deportation, while allowing his Justice Department to inflict The Pharaohs Justice and deport tens of thousand of others for the exact same crimes committed by his blood relatives!! But there will be no deportation for the two illegal immigrant Obamas present here in America. Obama is Pharaoh, and he will decide who the law applies to and who it doesn't.
It is no accident that the Latino vote went overwhelmingly for Obama last night.
He's their type of guy.
So Obama will be able to continue to inflict his tyranny on our citizens. Things will probably be far worse for everyone than they were during his first four years. Obama will continue to tell the Catholic Church that their First Amendment rights end where his government power begins. Chilling, but that is our new reality now.
There will be a whole new host of realities after last night.
Republicans basically got obliterated in California last night. More Republican office holders got wiped out by the Pharaoh-induced wave. There will be no stopping them now, as they will create a literal hell on earth for the citizens who live here. Californias government will go bankrupt and fail. There is no mathematical scenario where it can survive...especially when productive individuals start fleeing the tyranny of one-party government. Don't think it will happen? Watch and learn. I've already had several friends leave California. Many more will follow. And the State tax base will go along with them.
My own defeat to Congressman Adam Schiff was actually the least of my worries. I didn't even check the results until long after the 8pm closing of the polls. I knew that I would lose, so I wasn't too worried about it. The voters of the 28th District prefer a really Big Government, the Nanny State, and budget-destroying Socialism. Good luck with that.
I hope the voters in my District really like Adam Schiff, because they are now going to have him in office for at least 10 more years. After the ass-kicking he gave me, no well-financed Republican candidate is going to waste his time with running in that district. The only chance Schiff goes out in the future is like the Howard Berman situation, where redistricting changes the lines on the map and he gets squeezed out by a fellow Democrat.
I'm somewhat satisfied with my results. I would have liked to perform a little bit better, but I had less than $10,000 to run my campaign. I never took a penny from anyone, and I did everything on my own...and I still got 24% of the vote. It was an uphill battle all the way, but I am proud of how I represented Conservative values and helped spread our message at my debate with Adam Schiff.
I don't see much of a a future for Republicans here in California. I'm not sure that I will ever try for elected office again. Maybe I will, maybe I won't. If I do, it might not be here.
After last nights destructive election results, I will have to seriously think about whether or not I will even be living in California in the future. I refuse to live with deadbeat neighbors who feel they are entitled to their "fair share" of my paycheck.
I won't do it. It's as simple as that.

On Election Eve
In 2000, Chicago-area voters rejected Barack Obama and elected Bobby Rush to be their Congressman from Illinois' 1st District. But a short eight years later, some of those very same voters who had previously rejected Barack Obama would help elect him President of the United States. In 1994, voters in Massachusetts rejected Mitt Romney and re-elected Ted Kennedy as their United States Senator. But a short eight years later, some of those very same voters who had rejected him before would help elect Mitt Romney as Governor of Massachusetts. And tomorrow, many of those same voters who rejected him in 1994 will cast a ballot in hopes of making Mitt Romney the 45th President of the United States.
Tomorrow I will face incumbent Congressman Adam Schiff in the 28th Congressional District of California. He has the strategic advantage of having held his current political office for ten years and he also has a few million dollars in his election campaign account, which doesn't hurt. Being that about 70% of the voters in my district cast a vote for Barack Obama in 2008, it is difficult for me to envision a situation in which they would choose a Conservative Republican over a Liberal Democrat.
In my campaign, I presented straight Conservative viewpoints and ideologies to the voters. I did not take it easy on Adam Schiff, and he definitely noticed.
Win or lose tomorrow, I am proud of what I have already accomplished in this race. In my previous two attempts at elected office, I didn't even make it past the primaries. This time I was victorious on June 5th, and made it onto the ballot in a General Election for the first time ever. I accomplished many new milestones on this journey, including having my first televised debate with a political opponent. And there are many more to come. Tomorrow I am going to achieve new personal records for myself. I will receive the highest number of votes ever in my political career. I will also receive the highest percentage of the vote I have ever had in my career.
It probably won't be enough to defeat Adam Schiff, but I don't view political defeat as the end of the world. Sometimes you have to present yourself to voters a few times before they finally see the wisdom of choosing you. I have not yet achieved my goal of becoming an elected leader in this country. But I sense that I am making positive steps in that direction. Every election for me has been a positive step up the ladder. Barack Obama and Mitt Romney didn't let previous election defeats deter them from trying again, and I certainly won't let a defeat tomorrow stop me from trying to win in the future.
Eventually, voters changed their minds about Barack Obama and Mitt Romney. After rejecting them in the past, they eventually saw their way to electing them to some of the highest political positions in this country.
I hope that someday in the future, the voters will have this same change of heart about me.

Romney's closing argument
I liked the part where he said he wouldn't spend four years blaming his predecessor.
That was a good line.
I also liked that he talked about jobs and growth and the future.
I'm not a big fan of his, but I will be voting for him.
Hopefully, he can turn things around.
Obama has been terrifying the job creators. I know this for a fact.

The Two Faces of Adam Schiff
In a previous blog post, I mentioned that I had thought up two specific situations that proved that Adam Schiff was a phony. A career politician that will say and do anything to stay in elected office.
Schiff admitted to me at the debate that he has no plans to leave his Congressional seat. He plans to be there for life. I certainly hope that the voters will disagree with him on Tuesday. People with those type of entitlement attitudes tend to be horrific leaders, given enough time.
But Adam Schiff has recently hit a new high, or a new low, depending on how you look at it.
Adam Schiff has been so phony, so incredibly two-faced and supplicant to various special interest groups that he has earned the endorsement from two groups of people who should be mortal enemies.
The first endorsement didn't surprise me.
CAIR...the Council on American Islamic Relations.. endorsed Schiff in District 28 over me.
No surprises there, as I have been very public about my rather dim view of Islam and its followers.
Muslims who follow Islam seek to destroy all other cultures and religions on earth. They seek to establish a Global Caliphate and subjugate all human beings on the planet to their rule.
I'm not a fan of this faith, or its goals. To be quite honest, any political organization with half a brain should reject this religion whose followers continually publicly espouse a fanatical, genocidal hatred of Jewish people.
I have been very public about my belief that we can never truly be friends with people who have these values. I personally don't want to be friends with any country that openly expresses a desire to harm the people of Israel. However, that is no problem for Congressman Schiff. His morals are a bit more flexible than mine. The Muslims feel that Schiff is their man...that he is working towards their goals.
The Muslims support Schiff, and view him as an ally to their cause.
Being that Adam Schiff is Jewish himself, I find the whole thing very disturbing - on many levels.
Amazingly enough, Schiff has also earned a second endorsement from a group that has very opposite interests.
The Armenian National Committee of America, or ANCA, has endorsed Schiff in District 28 also. The amazing thing here is that they also believe Schiff is working towards their goals.
The Armenians, who are Christians, have very different goals from the Muslims. The Muslims in Turkey committed genocide against the Armenians...very specifically because they were Christians...and nearly obliterated their entire culture...killing over 1.5 million Armenians from 1915-1923. As a result of the genocide, a large number of Armenians are refugees, scattered across various countries of the world....many of them living in Glendale, California, which is part of my District.
Schiff has earned their favor by being politically pliable. By pandering to them and saying to them that he seeks justice for the Armenians from the Muslims in Turkey. His pandering to the Armenian community is very similar to how Adam Schiff is currently pandering to the gay community of West Hollywood. Schiff is telling the gays that he supports gay marriage, even though previously as a State Senator, he had absolutely no record of writing legislation for gay marriage. The subject of gay marriage was not politically trendy 10 years ago when he served in the State Senate. Back then it couldn't buy him any votes, so he didn't give a damn about it.
Me? In sharp contrast to Adam Schiff, I have marched right into West Hollywood City Council chambers and told them that I don't support gay marriage now...nor will I be supporting it in the future. This behavior certainly didn't buy me any votes...because unlike Schiff, my values are not flexible.
I understand ANCA choosing Schiff over me because Schiff has been pandering to them for about a decade. Of course, no results for them, but plenty of promises and hot air. Me, on the other hand, I openly told ANCA that the past was the past, and that the Muslims in Turkey had no regrets about what they had done to their ancestors...and that their bigger worry was not what the Muslims had done in the past, but what they planned to do to them in the future. Of course, this wasn't pandering -- but rather, the truth, and the leaders at ANCA didn't care to hear it.
So...in summary...
The Gays of West Hollywood are supporting Adam Schiff because of his pandering towards gay marriage. Schiff is supported by the gays -- along with the Muslims (who are known for their hostility towards and mis-treatment of gays) and the Christian Armenians (who don't approve of gay marriage).
The Armenians of ANCA are supporting Adam Schiff, along with the Muslims (who slaughtered their ancestors) and the gays (who demand Schiff cater to their non-Christian gay marriage demands)
The Muslims of CAIR are supporting Adam Schiff, a Jewish politician -- along with the Gays of West Hollywood (for whom they have nothing but contempt) and the Armenians of ANCA (whose culture they tried to exterminate).
Wow. Take a minute to wrap your head around that one.
I've been racking my brain for days. How do you beat a candidate who is so morally bankrupt, and so incredibly two-faced that he has everyone supporting him?
I'm starting to think...maybe you don't.

Our long national nightmare is almost over
It has been very difficult for me these last four years, living under the despotism of the Obama Regime. Never in my life could I ever imagine a time where the American President would loot the treasury, seize auto companies, demand our fealty to a twisted government-mandated health care program, show open aggression and hostility to a single religious faith, and declare war on energy companies and the wealthy. We are now living in an Ayn Rand novel, where the government has declared that there are no limits to its powers. I will be sprinting to the polls on Tuesday to make sure that this nightmare comes to an end.
