          Dear Listeners,

          What I am about to tell you is going to be very disturbing, but you must know this and pass it on.   

          Let’s call this commentary “Obama’s war on democracy.” 

          The alliance between Obama and the liberal media must be exposed and broken now.   The liberal media has been coopted by the Obama administration.   The liberal talking points flow from D.C. liberals to the media and then on to the American people, and by that time they call it news. 

          We are being mis-led by an Obama-controlled liberal media, and unless this unholy alliance is exposed and broken, it will bankrupt our nation both fiscally and morally.  

          A quick look at how the networks are covering the flap over Wisconsin public union employees says it all –

          Liberal ABC called it “Mutiny in America – public workers take to the streets as Governors try to cut their pay and perks.”

          Gripped by a three billion dollar budget crisis, the State of Wisconsin cannot just print money like Washington liberals do.   Cuts have to be made, but the Governor never proposed the salary and wage cuts that were reported by ABC.   They lied. 

          Meanwhile, NBC’s liberal Brian Williams applauded employees for “rising up and saying no to some of the most extreme cuts in the nation.”     Extreme cuts?   That is nonsense.  The Governor asked government workers to cover a modest 6% bump in their already generous healthcare coverage. 

          And, behind it all is President Obama, who quickly chose sides by calling the cost cutting actions an assault on unions.   It was also revealed that President Obama’s political operation, which is called Organizing for America, is supporting the demonstrators in Wisconsin by sending bus loads of protesters to Madison and they are manning the phones. 

          With the complete encouragement of the Obama administration, the media is using Wisconsin to demonize conservatives – describing them as mean-spirited, callous, and oppressive.  

          This is not journalism.  This is propaganda and brainwashing.   The so-called “news media” are willing to do whatever it takes to help the President implement his Socialist agenda.             Our only chance is to expose and break the Obama-liberal media alliance that lyingly fans the flames of discord that will bring our nation to its knees.    We must do everything in our power to end this betrayal on the part of our President.

The following is a KSCO commentary.  Here is Kay Zwerling:

I recorded this commentary 3-23-2007 and it is in my book in the section Part 2, United States of America.

In our democratic society, how come the way we elect our most important leader – the President – is not democratic?

Whoever believes he or she has the wherewithal to be our leader must have $100 million for campaign expenses.

This system must have been in place for so long that no one seems to question it.

True, George Washington was a wealthy, and most loved patriot.  So was Abraham Lincoln, but he was poor, and he became President.

Through the years, the cost of running for public office went up probably rapidly especially once the internet and TV became the perfect vehicles to showcase candidates.

Let’s take Hillary Clinton – actually let’s not.  She has been a Presidential wannabe since she moved into the White House.

Remember that foolish campaign wording of “You’ll get two for the price of one.”  Whoever wanted Hillary in the first place?

She has accomplished nothing to make herself a candidate for the Presidency, except that she has a war chest of over $100 million.  And, oh yeah, she claims it takes a village to raise a child.  That is nonsense.

Someone also started the rumor that she is the smartest woman in the world, and that is a crock, also.

No wonder we wind up with mediocre leaders most of the time.  Franklin Delano Roosevelt was pretty good though he was a racist.  He could not find room in our country for a ship load of Holocaust victims so he sent them back to Germany to die.  Harry Truman the haberdasher was a simple honest courageous man who truly meant it when he said “The buck stops here.”  As Vice President, he inherited the Presidency when Roosevelt died.  He had integrity and respect for the office, and also the courage to make the agonizing decision to end the war in Japan, saving many thousands of lives.  His decision heralded in the Atomic Age.

Back to Hillary – a contrived and staged creature who lives by the polls just like Bill did.  Her magnum opus was her health plan and it was a disaster, discarded by the entire Congress.  She was a liar who would not remember anything while under oath.  She lied about her questionable documents while with the Rose Law Firm, and mysteriously had them brought forth anonymously many months later.

She and Bill helped themselves to furniture and other treasures that were not nailed down when they left the White House, and when ordered to return the furniture and artwork, they did so shamelessly. 

And now, they both want another eight years in the White House?  God help us.  Their greatest flaw is their arrogance and underestimation of the intelligence of We the People.

Why do I discredit Hillary now?   Because I believe she will be a candidate for President next year in 2012.   I hope I am wrong.

I believe the honest way to obtain Presidential candidates may be with government rules which state that candidates are not permitted to use their own money to campaign.  Rather, each candidate should be given some sum of government funds. 

That would seem to be a more level playing field, and then may the best one for the job win, instead of the one with the most millions.   The playing field should whittle down to two candidates who have proven themselves to be able to make valid decisions.

Those two should receive the bulk of the government funds for their final campaigning.

The following is a KSCO commentary.  Here is Kay Zwerling:

          Kudos to Doris Sanden for providing some much-needed chuckle time.  These may have been around for a while, but they are still delightful. 

          A paraprosdukian (or maybe it is paraprosdokian, from the Greek meaning beyond expectation) is a figure of speech in which the latter part of a sentence or phrase is unexpected in a way that causes the reader or listener to refrain or reinterpret the first part. 

          Here are a few good ones: 
*  Do not argue with an idiot.  He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.
*  The last thing I want to do is hurt you, but it is still on my list. 
*  Light travels faster than sound.  That is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak. 
*  If I agreed with you, we would both be wrong. 
*  We never really grow up.  We only learn how to act in public. 
*  War does not determine who is right – only who is left.
*  Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit, wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
*  Evening news is where they begin with “Good evening” and then proceed to tell you why it is not. 
*  To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism.  To steal from many is research.
*  I did not say it was your fault.  I said I was blaming you. 
*  Women will never be equal to men until they can walk down the street with a bald head and a beer gut and still think that they are sexy. 
*  Behind every successful man is his woman.   Behind the fall of a successful man is usually another woman. 
*  A clear conscious is the sign of a fuzzy memory.
*  Money cannot bring happiness, but it sure makes misery easier to live with.
*  I used to be indecisive.  Now I am not sure. 
*  You are never too old to learn something stupid. 
*  Nostalgia is not what it used to be. 
*  Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.
*  Going to church does not make you a Christian anymore than standing in a garage makes you a car. 
*  A diplomat is someone who tells you to go to Hell in such a way that you look forward to the trip. 
And finally –
*  Hospitality is making your guests feel at home even when you wish they were.

The following is an encore presentation of an earlier KSCO commentary broadcast.  Here is Kay Zwerling:

          I wrote this on February 29, 2004, and it is in Part 2 of my book in section “United States of America”. 

          Well, isn’t there always something to fill us with angst.  This time it is the gays confronting the traditionalists, and the issue is becoming more hairy and the gays are behaving like anarchists. 

          With the help of certain lawbreaking Mayors and Judges, and other jurisdictions who are getting into the act, many gays are celebrating their so-called marriages.

          Almost everyone agrees that same sex partners will and should have some legal rights as a married couple, that is a man and a woman. 

          Now, gays, unhappy with the wording “legal partnership” want their union to be called a marriage.

          Since forever, marriage has been between a man and a woman and nothing more.  When children come into a marriage, they have one mother and one father and in no way ever can two fathers or two mothers be a marriage.  So, it looks like there is a stalemate. 

          There is, however, a reasonable solution.   Remember Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet” when Romeo said “What’s in a name?   A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” 

          To satisfy everyone, I propose that unions between gays could be called a garriage with a “g”.  That would sound the closest to the world marriage without trivializing the institution of marriage.  Just change one letter, an “m” to a “g” and if gays say the word fast enough, it sounds like marriage – even though it is not.

          Gays could get garried, hopefully have stable garriages, and celebrate long and happy years of gatrimony together.   Now, isn’t that a real good King Solomon type solution?

The following is a KSCO commentary.  Here is Kay Zwerling:

          I wrote this commentary in July 2007.  Now, 3½ years later, it is even more relevant.  It is in my book, in Part 3, The World. 

          Finally, we are experiencing an economic recovery, a jobless one.  Millions of U.S. jobs no longer exist, and the people are using the fact as a campaign issue to blame President Bush, now Obama, and they demand that he create new jobs.  

          So, let’s go back to about halfway through the first Clinton term.   Clinton convinced by corporate advisors and lobbyists, urged Congress to create the North American Free Trade Agreement, known as NAFTA.

          That plan was to make trade a level playing field for all nations, even the poor ones.   NAFTA did become law, but over the vigorous protests of many Americans and labor unions who saw that our Country would not benefit from these agreements.  

          I felt that way, too. 

          One year later GAT (the global form of NAFTA) also became law.  That low swooshing sound at first was thousands of U.S. companies sending pink slips to millions of longtime employees after which those companies set up operations in other countries where labor was much cheaper. 

          It took time before the full impact of NAFTA and GAT was felt.   Foreign trading partners and American companies in foreign countries have benefited at the expense of the U.S. economy. 

          To add to the NAFTA and GAT fiascos, shortly after our government voted China “Most Favored Nation” status, certain well-placed politicians stood to gain big-time by the China move. 

          The results of those two trade treaties are now obvious.  A large part of the U.S. manufacturing industry died.  Untold amounts of U.S. jobs are gone – forever.

          Now, China and other countries produce most of our clothing, and most of everything else.   Many high tech companies have left our shores for greener and cheaper pastures, as did other industries.  

          Furthermore, our trade agreements are lopsided.  We buy much more from China and elsewhere than they choose to buy from us, and I think that is crazy, and that is the way things are right now.   Trade only makes sense if it is balanced.   Otherwise, it is a joke. 

          This brings to mind another short-sighted disaster created by that one-time Democratic President Jimmy Carter, a prime example of the disconnected Left. 

          He gave away the Panama Canal, which we built and completed in 1914.  Guess who controls that now – China does.   And, that liberal move will haunt us for a long time to come.

          In 1992, Bill Clinton won the election with the frequent use of the quote “It’s the economy, stupid.”   And now, in 2004, George Bush will win if he remembers to remind the electorate again and again what really happened to the evaporation of U.S. jobs – “It’s NAFTA and GAT, stupid.”

The following is a KSCO commentary.  Here is Kay Zwerling:

          No one can disagree that ours is the most generous nation in the world when it comes to helping other countries – especially if they are the recipients of very bad luck – like Haiti, for example, when one year ago an enormous earthquake devastated the entire country. 

          Throughout this year, we have been reminded via TV that in Haiti millions became homeless, streets are filled with mud, safe drinking water is still not available, much sickness prevails, and as we speak, now the disaster remains exactly the same as it was one year ago.

          What is wrong?  Compassionate Americans, as usual, early on have given millions to help the Haitians – yet they are still homeless and nothing has been rebuilt. 

          Clearly the answer must be – the money sent to the leaders went into the pockets of corrupt people and not to the suffering victims. 

This despicable scenario happens every time.  We are too trusting, and we never learn.   

I submit – we Americans must never again send money to the leaders of an injured or destroyed country. 

Instead, we should use those millions meant to help the poor with American builders to go to Haiti and rebuild everything themselves.

This way, the Haitian people can have homes built for them, water made safe for them, streets, schools, and hospitals built for them, in a timely manner.

Also, our government sent many trucks to help clear the enormous debris.   According to U.S. media, they have never been used in this entire year.  They remain in ports because the Haitian government demands import taxes like 40% to allow the trucks into the country.   How can the Haitians be helped when their own leaders create such insane restrictions?  

Let’s stop being naïve and stupid when dealing with various disasters in other countries, and let’s stop trusting corrupt leaders.   There is a simple solution.  Let’s never again send money.  Instead, send workers and materials.

The following is a KSCO commentary.  Here is Kay Zwerling:

The first time I heard Alex Jones on our station, my first reaction was to be frightened, and turn him off, and I instinctively pushed his thoughts away.   

The next day he was on the air and I felt like it was imperative that I listen to him – because he was talking about possible dangers to the Country I love.  

That was almost two years ago.  Of course, I continue to listen to him – as do many KSCO listeners – old and new who are grateful that we can, especially since MZ my son, and CEO and owner, chose to keep him on regularly.  

Alex Jones is the world’s most popular internet, audio, and video personality, and can be heard and can be heard on the Central Coast of California exclusively on KOMY AM 1340 live weekdays from 9:00 a.m. to noon, and on KSCO week nights on delayed broadcast from 7:00 p.m. to10:00 p.m.

There are Americans who believe that Alex Jones is a conspiracy nut, but that is not so.  He is really a patriot who is committed to telling us what is really happening in our government and nation that affects all of us. 

During one recent program, he confided that his wife is scared and worried all the time, and he added “I’m scared too, but I must continue to share the dangers that exist despite the desire of those who wish to silence me.” 

During a trip to San Antonio, Texas, last year, where Michael and I attended a conference with Dr. Wallach and the Youngevity staff, we went to Austin, Texas, to visit Alex Jones in his very impressive and large studio where he produces CD’s and DVD’s for national distribution to make the Country aware of his urgent information.

Alex knows it is not about right and left or liberals vs. conservatives, it is all about money, and ultimate control of all of us by corporate and world governments.  

Other networks are discovering Alex Jones and his courageous messages, and his exposure is growing daily.  

Kudos to you Alex for putting yourself out there for all of us to contemplate and absorb.

The following is an encore presentation of an earlier KSCO commentary, which also appears in Kay’s new book.  Here is Kay Zwerling:

          As a longtime resident of this planet, and a lucky native born of this incredible Country, I need to speak out about why our United States, once the hope and promise of the world, is rapidly becoming weaker and unable to live up to its past expectations.   It is our own goodness, generosity, and trusting nature that is destroying us.

          The topic is:  Assimilation vs. diversity.

          Let’s roll back the clock to around 1913 when my own parents and European extended family were part of the greatest influx of immigrants to the United States.  

          In the late 1920s as a child, I saw how proud and grateful my family was to be here in America where they saw the hope and opportunity nonexistent in their own native Country.  The one abiding desire of all immigrants at that time was to quickly learn to speak, read, and write in English – in short, to become truly American.

          It is called assimilation.   That desire to be American in no way diminished the love that newcomers had for their own culture, history, and native language.  They knew it was their responsibility to keep their own heritage alive, and they never expected their newly adopted Country to do that for them. 

          Let’s fast forward now to the early 1960s or thereabouts when immigration surged again, from Mexico, Korea, Japan, China, Viet Nam, and many other countries.  It was then that the notion of diversity became very popular, and it was celebrated ad nauseum by the politically correct Left.

          Always motivated by feelings, never reality, the Left felt that it was wonderful to have this mixture of cultures in the United States, and in many ways it is true, it was; however, the Left, in its enthusiasm, felt that as a Country We the People were responsible for helping these newcomers keep their respective languages and cultures alive. 

          Big big mistake.  So what happened?   At that time, most new citizens came from Mexico and spoke only Spanish.   Our public education system, led by Leftist educators, created the program of “English as a Second Language” whereby Mexican children received most of their education in Spanish so their parents and they did not have to learn English, so they remained primarily Mexicans, but lived in the United States.    That’s called diversity?   I call it disaster. 

          Now, let’s fast forward to now, 2002.   As a result of 40 years of diversity, and the rejection of assimilation, many immigrants do not understand English, but they do have the right to vote, so our voting ballots are now in many languages.   This is stupid and wrong.  And, it is weakening and destroying the identity of our Country.  It is time to demand that to vote one must read, write, and understand English, and all ballots must be in English only because English is our national language.  

          What we have now is mass chaos and ghettoes of different cultures.  I say, tell political correctness and diversity to take a hike, because diversity divides and assimilation brings unity.  What we have now is a nation of babble.  Please, let’s take back our Country now.
