Pelosi blames Bush administration for BP oil spill.
By: Joel S. Gehrke Jr.
Special to the Examiner
05/29/10 7:38 AM EDT

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., blamed the Bush administration for any lack of oversight leading up to the Gulf oil spill. The Obama administration, on the other hand, is blameless.

From Talk Radio News Service:

“Many of the people appointed in the Bush administration are still burrowed in the agencies that are supposed to oversee the [oil] industry,” Pelosi said when asked if Democrats could have prevented or mitigated the crisis by keeping a closer watch on the industry.

Added the Speaker, “the cozy relationships between the Bush administration’s agency leadership and the industry is clear…I’ve heard no complaints from my members about the way the president has handled it,” Pelosi stated.

On Friday, the Washington Examiner requested that Speaker Pelosi’s office release the list of Bush appointees to whom she was referring. We’ll let you know when we hear back.

I would be remiss in my responsibilities to this august thread if I didn't report that "The Gods are Angry". Yes, this is the lead story at Drudge. The Kenyan interloper was silenced in his Memorial Day remarks NOT AT ARLINGTON. Read into that what you will. But when viewed in context with the other weather, cough, Copenhagen, sniff, related phenomena that have squelched "the president", we're starting to see a trend.

Thunder, lightning stop Obama Memorial Day speech
Reuters

By Patricia Zengerle Patricia Zengerle – Mon May 31, 3:57 pm ET

ELWOOD, Illinois (Reuters) – President Barack Obama's Memorial Day observance was stopped in its tracks on Monday by a torrential downpour accompanied by bolts of lightning and booming thunder.

Obama thrilled the crowd at Abraham Lincoln National Ceremony by appearing under an umbrella as the rain poured down. But he did not deliver his prepared remarks honoring troops who died fighting for the United States..............

Newest rumor is that Billy Clinton took the fallout from Sestak to deflect another big scandal off Obama in exchange for him stepping down after 4 and letting Hillary get the D nomination for '12.

My guess, from the little I, or anyone else for that matter, STILL know of Obama, is that he'll accept the deal, offer to step down in '12, then renege and still run.

Further proof that environmental organizations - just like labor unions - are effectively just a specialized branch of the Democratic Party:


Statement of Sierra Club Executive Director Michael Brune:

If Americans were on the boat with me today and saw what I saw, they would be beating down the doors of their representatives, calling for action. We watched a pelican struggling to fly under the weight of globs of oil. We saw a pod of dolphins straining to swim through the oil slick.

The most infuriating thing was that there was no one else out where we were. There were no BP crews rescuing birds. There was no BP ship laying booms or soaking up oil. BP has created a disaster so huge that response efforts can never match the needs here.

We should stop using the term "clean up" because there is really no way to clean up this mess. It is heartbreaking. It's hard to describe the magnitude of this catastrophe. This is the largest environmental disaster in our history. It calls for a response of the same scale.

We have never needed President Obama's visionary leadership more than we do now. [???!!!???] It's time for President Obama to deliver a plan to move America beyond its dependence on oil over the next twenty years.

We are ready to change the way we do energy. We are ready to stop letting the oil industry call the shots, and start embracing clean energy.

We already have many of the clean energy solutions necessary to create a 21st century transportation system that will move us beyond oil. Our dependence on oil has created all kinds of misery, from the Exxon Valdez spill twenty years ago, to air pollution, to climate change, to foreign wars, to the devastation I saw in the Gulf today.

For years, the oil industry has raked in the highest profits in the world, while battling safety regulations and lobbying for loopholes and subsidies that our leaders have been all too willing to grant. The oil industry has fought fiercely against the clean energy policies that threaten its stranglehold on our economy.

During World War II this country completely transformed itself to meet an unprecedented threat. We need that level of ambitious vision now. It's time to be bold. This is our chance to move America beyond dependence on oil. We need to seize it.

Sometimes, things are not as bad as they appear. Let's Look on The Bright Side


Obama destroyed the Clinton Political Machine - Driving a stake thru the Heart of Hillary's Presidential aspirations, something no Republican was ever able to do. Remember when a Hillary Presidency scared the daylights out of you?

He killed off the Kennedy Dynasty - No more Kennedys trolling Washington looking for booze and women wanting rides home. American women and freedom are safer tonight!

He is destroying the Democratic Party before our eyes!
Dennis Moore had never lost a race - quit Evan Bayh had never lost a race - quit Byron Dorgan - had never lost a race - quit Harry Reid - bid for re-election doesn't look good


These are just a handful of the Democrats whose political careers Obama has destroyed! By the end of 2010 dozens more will be!
In December of 2008 the Democrats were on the rise. In the last two election cycles they had picked up 14 senate seats and 52 house seats. The press was touting the death of the Conservative Movement and the Republican Party.

In one year Obama put a stop to all of this and will probably give the house, if not the senate back to the Republicans.
He has completely exposed liberals and progressives for what they are.
Every generation seems to need to relearn the lesson on why they should never actually put liberals in charge. He is bringing home the lesson very well!
Liberals tax, borrow and spend - check Liberals won't bring themselves to protect America - check
Liberals want to take over the economy - check Liberals think they know what is best for everyone - check Liberals aren't happy till they are running YOUR life - check
He has brought more Americans back to conservatism than anyone since Reagan. In one year he rejuvenated the Conservative Movement and brought out to the streets millions of Freedom Loving Americans.
Name me one other time in your life that you saw your friends and neighbors this interested in taking back America !

In all honesty, one year ago I was more afraid than I had ever been in my life. Not of the economy, but of the direction our country was going. I thought Americans had forgotten what this country was all about. My neighbors, friends, strangers proved to me that my lack of confidence of the greatness and wisdom of the American people was flat out wrong.

When the American People wake up, no smooth talking teleprompter reader can fool them! Obama woke up these Great Americans. Thank you Obama!
So, Lets Recap "2009".........what a year!, would you not agree?
1. The American people inaugurate a half-Arab president with a total of 142 days experience as a US Senator from the most politically corrupt state (city) in America whose governors have been ousted from office. The President's first official act is to order the close of Gitmo and make sure terrorist’s civil rights are not violated. (Honest mistake?)
2. The U.S. Congress rushes to confirm a black Attorney General, Eric Holder, whose law firm we later find out represents seventeen Gitmo Terrorists. (An honest mistake?)
3. The CIA Boss appointee, Leon Panetta, has absolutely no experience.

4. We got the second most corrupt American woman (Pelosi is #1) as Secretary of State; bought and paid for. (You can put lipstick on a pig, but it still stinks!)
5. We got a Tax Cheat for Treasury Secretary who did not properly file his own taxes for 12 years. (He misspoke!)

6. A Commerce Secretary nominee who withdrew due to corruption charges. (Another honest mistake?)
7. A Tax cheat nominee for Chief Performance Officer who withdrew under charges. (Hmmm...Another screw-up?)
8. A Labor Secretary nominee who withdrew under charges of unethical conduct. (Ok, maybe this person was just plain stupid.)
9. A Secretary HHS nominee (Daschle) who withdrew under charges of cheating on his taxes. (I'm running out of excuses for these idiots!!)
10. Multiple appointments of former lobbyists after an absolute campaign statement that no lobbyists would be appointed. (Dear God, I am getting a headache!)
All this occurred just during the first three weeks. . . But who's counting?
America is being run by the modern-day Three Stooges; Barry, Nancy and Harry and they are still trying to define stimulus..."it's spending!!!"

The congress passes the $800,000,000,000 (that's $800 billion) pork-loaded spending bill where the government gives you a smidgen of your tax dollars ($13 per week), making you feel so good about yourself [stimulated], that you want to run out to Wal-Mart and buy a new Chinese-made HDTV!

Here's the good news though - Obama took Air Force One to Denver to sign the stimulus package, wasting as much as 10,000 gallons of fuel OR 24 JOBS FOR ONE YEAR.
Obama went to the International Olympic Committee to have them choose Chicago for a host city - he failed Obama went to Copenhagen to lecture them on global warming - he failed Obama went to New Jersey to promote the Democratic candidate for governor –

he failedObama went to Virginia to promote the Democratic candidate for governor - he failed Obama went to Massachusetts to promote the Democratic candidate for senator –

he failed
Obama has now been president for a full year and yet he & wife (first lady) Michelle, the Christian family they claim to be, have not attended church since the inauguration.

Obama is the 1st president in history who did not attend any Christmas religious observance. He must miss Reverend Wright!
And finally, he is the 1st president to remain on vacation after a terrorist attack

( Ft. Hood ).
In these times, 'I'll keep my God, my freedom, my gun and my money. Anyone who supports this insanity can keep "THE CHANGE".

I would be enthusiastic about seeing how any other person who could have been in the president's position (Dem, Rep, Ind, Green, whoever) would have fixed the oil spill.

Some people make me thing they would be happy to see this oil spill destroy the entire Gulf eco-system before being fixed (or not) just so they could say ''HAHA WE WERE RIGHT OBAMAAAAAA/BARRY/OBAMA BIN LADEN SUX!!!!''

Just like those asshole Democrats that were grinning ear to ear about Bush's administration failing with Katrina.

Yeah, and the media criticized the hell out of Bush for his flyover. What people don't understand is the logistics that it takes to get the president on the ground. You have to fly in his helicopters, limos, and security detail days prior to the visit, and this is done using huge military C-17 cargo aircraft along with C-5 cargo aircraft. Now, during Katrina ( i was on numerous support missions for Katrina) we could only go into one airport in the area and we were flying our butts off bringing supplies to New Orleans and taking out evacuees. Now, if they would have shut down the airport for AF1 and taken out what probably would have amounted to 5-6 cargo aircraft for supporting the visit, the rescue and resupply mission would have been severely hampered. With me nowing this, I cannot criticize Bush one bit on his flyover that he gets so much grief for.

A young woman was about to finish her first year of
college. Like so many others her age, she considered
herself to be a liberal Democrat, and among other
liberal ideals, was very much in favor of higher taxes
to support more government programs, in other
words, redistribution of wealth.

She was deeply ashamed that her father was a rather
staunch Republican, a feeling she openly expressed.
Based on the lectures that she had participated in,
and the occasional chat with a professor, she felt that
her father had for years harbored an evil, selfish
desire to keep w hat he thought should be his.

One day she was challenging her father on his
opposition to higher taxes on the rich and the need
for more government programs. The self-professed
objectivity proclaimed by her professors had to be
the truth and she indicated so to her father. He
responded by asking how she was doing in school.

Taken aback, she answered rather haughtily that she
had a 4.0 GPA, and let him know that it was tough
to maintain, insisting that she was taking a very
difficult course load and was constantly studying,
which left her no time to go out and party like other
people she knew. She didn't even have time for a
boyfriend, and didn't really have many college friends
because she spent all her time studying.

Her father listened and then asked, "How is your
friend Audrey doing ?"

She replied, "Audrey is barely getting by. All she
takes are easy classes, she never studies, and barely
has a 2.0 GPA. She is so popular on campus;
college for her is a blast. She's always invited to all
the parties, and lots of times doesn't even show up
for classes because she's too hung over."

Her wise father asked his daughter, "Why don't you go
to the Dean's office and ask him to deduct a 1.0 off
your GPA and give it to your friend who only has a
2.0. That way you will both have a 3.0 GPA and
certainly that would be a fair and equal distribution of
GPA."

The daughter, visibly shocked by her father's
suggestion, angrily fired back, "That's a crazy idea.
how would that be fair! I've worked really hard for
my grades! I've invested a lot of time, and a lot of
hard work! Audrey has done next to nothing toward
her degree. She played while I worked my tail off!"


The father slowly smiled, winked and said gently,
" Welcome to the Republican party.":D

Subject: What's Wrong with Obama?



A Shrink Asks: What's Wrong with Obama?


By Robin of Berkeley

So what is the matter with Obama? Conservatives have been asking this
question for some time. I've written a number of articles trying to
solve the mystery.


Even some liberals are starting to wonder. James Carville railed about
Obama's blasé attitude after the catastrophic oil spill. The New York
Times' Maureen Dowd revamped Obama's "Yes We Can" motto into "Will We
Ever?"




The liberal women of the TV show "The View" have expressed sympathy
for Michelle Obama's living with a man so out of touch . Peggy Noonan,
hardly a vehement Obama foe, recently pronounced him disconnected .




Obama's odd mannerisms intrigue a psychotherapist like me. He also
presents a serious diagnostic challenge.




For one, Obama's teleprompter and the men behind the Blackberry keep
him well-scripted. We know so little about the facts of his life.




But it's more than just a lack of information. Obama himself is a
strange bird. He doesn't fit easily into any diagnostic category.




Many people attribute Obama's oddness to his narcissism. True, Obama
has a gargantuan ego, and he is notoriously thin-skinned.




Yet a personality disorder like narcissism does not explain Obama's
strangeness: his giggling while being asked about the economy; his
continuing a shout-out rather than announcing the Ft. Hood shootings;
or his vacations, golfing, partying and fundraising during the
calamitous oil spill.




Take also Obama's declaring on the "Today Show" that he wants to know
whose ass to kick . Consummate narcissists would never stoop to this
vulgar display of adolescent machismo.




Obama is flat when passion is needed; he's aggressive when savvy is
required. What's most worrisome is that Obama doesn't even realize
that his behavior is inappropriate.




So if it's not just simple narcissism, what is wrong with Obama? Since
I've never evaluated him, I can't say for sure. But I can hazard some
educated guesses.




If I saw a client as disconnected as him, the first thing I would
wonder: Is something wrong with his brain? And I'd consider the
following theoretical diagnostic possibilities.




-- Physical problems : There are a multitude of physiological
conditions that can cause people to act strangely. For instance: head
injuries, endocrine disturbances, epilepsy, and toxic chemical
exposure.




It makes me wonder: Did Obama ever have a head injury? His stepfather
in Indonesia was purportedly an alcoholic abuser. Was Obama subject to
any physical abuse?




-- Drugs and alcohol : Damage to the brain from drugs and alcohol can
also cause significant cognitive impairments. Obama once said that
there were 57 states -- and didn't correct himself. Memory problems
can be caused by both illicit and prescription drug use.




Obama admits to a history of drug use in his youth. Did his usage
cause some damage? Does Obama still use?




-- Asperger's Syndrome : Also known as high-functioning autism,
Asperger's causes deficits in social skills. A person with Asperger's
can't read social cues. Consequently, he can be insensitive and
hurtful without even knowing it.




Could Obama have Asperger's? He might have some mild traits, but
certainly not the full-blown disorder. In contrast to Obama, those
with Asperger's get fixated on some behavior, like programming
computers. Obama lacks this kind of passion and zeal.




--Mental Illnes s: Obama's family tree is replete with the unbalanced.
His maternal great-grandmother committed suicide. His grandfather,
Stanley Dunham, was particularly unhinged: He was expelled from high
school for punching his principal; named his daughter Stanley because
he wanted a boy; and exposed young Barry to not just drunken trash
talk, but unrestricted visits with alleged pedophile Frank Marshall
Davis (who might or might not be Obama's biological father). Barack
Sr. was an abusive, alcoholic bigamist.


Since mental illness runs in the family, does Obama have any signs?
Yes and no. No, he is not a schizophrenic babbling about Martians. But
there are red flags for some other conditions.




While Obama doesn't appear to hallucinate, he seems to have delusions.
His believing he has a Messiah-like special gift smacks of grandiose
delusions. His externalizing all blame to conservatives, George W.
Bush, or the "racist" bogeyman hints at persecutory delusions.




Along with a delusional disorder, Obama may fit for a mild psychotic
disorder called schizotypal disorder . It may explain some of Obama's
oddness.




People with schizotypal disorder hold bizarre beliefs, are suspicious
and paranoid, and have inappropriate and constricted affect. They have
few close friends and are socially awkward. A schizotypal is someone
like your strange cousin Becky who is addicted to astrology, believes
she is psychic, and is the oddball at social gatherings.




Schizotypal Disorder does ring some bells vis-à-vis Obama. One way the
diagnosis doesn't fit, however, is that schizotypals are generally
harmless, odd ducks. Not so with Obama.




-- Trauma: My gut tells me that Obama was seriously traumatized in
childhood. His mother disregarded his basic needs, dragged him all
over the place, and ultimately abandoned him.




But I think there may be something even more insidious in his family
background. While I can't prove it, the degree of Obama's disconnect
reminds me of my sexually abused clients.




With serious sexual abuse, the brain chemistry may change. The child
dissociates -- that is, disconnects from his being -- in order to
cope. Many adult survivors still dissociate, from occasional trances
to the most extreme cases of multiple personality disorder.




Apparently, young Barry was left in the care of Communist Frank
Marshall Davis, who admitted to molesting a 13-year-old girl. As a
teenager, Obama wrote a disturbing poem , "Pop," that evoked images of
sexual abuse -- for instance, describing dual amber stains on both his
and "Pop's" shorts.




Would trauma explain Obama's disconnect? In many ways, yes. A damaged
and unattached child may develop a "false self." To compensate for the
enormous deficits in identity and attachment, the child invents his
own personality. For Obama, it may have been as a special, gifted
person.




Let's return now to my original question: What is wrong with Obama? My
guess is a great deal. The answer is complex and likely includes some
combination of the above.




Along with the brain issues are personality disorders: narcissism,
paranoia, passive-aggressiveness. There's even the possibility of the
most destructive character defect of all, an antisocial personality .
Untreated abuse can foster antisocial traits, especially among boys.




If my assessment is accurate, what does this mean?




It means that liberals need to wake up and spit out the Kool-Aid...and
that conservatives should put aside differences, band together, and
elect as many Republicans as possible.




Because Obama will not change. He will not learn from his mistakes. He
will not grow and mature from on-the-job experience. In fact, over
time, Obama will likely become a more ferocious version of who he is
today.




Why? Because this is a damaged person. Obama's fate was sealed years
ago growing up in his strange and poisonous family. Later on, his
empty vessel was filled with the hateful bile of men like Rev. Wright
and Bill Ayers.




Obama will not evolve; he will not rise to the occasion; he will not
become the man he was meant to be. This is for one reason and one
reason alone:


He is not capable of it.

Obama is dangerous. Not because of his political views. He's dangerous
because he's unstable. No nation or organization can risk having such
an individual as its chief executive. However, Obama is being propped
up by another corrupt, unstable political organization---the
democrats. We can no longer afford nor tolerate either in a position
of power.

Should you want to verify this, go to http://www.thomas.gov/, enter "HR 3590" in
the search box and look for "CRS Summaries." This is what you'll find.



Title IX Revenue Provisions—Subtitle A: Revenue Offset "(Sec. 9002)
Requires employers to include in the W-2 form of each employee the aggregate
cost of applicable employer-sponsored group health coverage that is excludable
from the employee's gross income (excluding the value of contributions to flexible
spending arrangements)."



Starting in 2011—next year—the W-2 tax form sent by your employer will be

increased to show the value of whatever health insurance you are provided.

It doesn't matter if you're retired. Your gross income WILL go up by the amount

of insurance your employer paid for. So you’ll be required to pay taxes on a larger

sum of money that you actually received. Take the tax form you just finished for

2009 and see what $15,000.00 or $20,000.00 additional gross income does to

your tax debt. That's what you'll pay next year. For many it puts you into a

much higher bracket. This is how the government is going to buy insurance for

fifteen (15) percent that don't have insurance and it's only part of the tax increases,

but it's not really a "tax increase" as such, it a redefinition of your taxable income.

Obama's Stimulus Visit Results in Lost Payday for Construction Workers

Published June 18, 2010

President Obama went to the groundbreaking of a road project in Columbus, Ohio, Friday to show that his massive stimulus package is still churning out jobs -- a "good news" story that was anything but for some construction workers who were trying to figure out how to make up for the payday they lost due to the president's visit.

The workers were told not to report to their construction project at a nearby hospital Friday, because the Secret Service was shutting it down for security reasons. They also were told that they would not get paid for the forced day off.

"We always do our very best to balance the needs of security with the needs and requirements of the venues we're securing," Secret Service spokesman Ed Donovan said in a written statement of FoxNews.com. "Any interruption in activity that we request is not done arbitrarily and only if absolutely necessary."

"The bosses told us we weren't working because the president is coming, and we are wondering why," construction worker George Harrison told WBNS-10TV. "That's $200 we are missing out on. Everybody needs to eat, right?"

Democrats not even bothering to pass a Budget this year. Which is basically their effing job with a majority in Congress....

too worried about the November elections I guess.

Democrats abrogating “most basic responsibility of governing” by refusing to pass a budget (Rep. John Boehner)
By Rep. John Boehner (R-Ohio) - 06/22/10 04:52 PM ET



Democrats once called passing a budget “the most basic responsibility of governing,” intoning that “if you can’t budget, you can’t govern.” Yet House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-MD) announced today that Washington Democrats are cancelling the budget this year, making it the first time in the modern era that the House has not passed a budget. That is the ideology of Washington Democrats: just keep spending taxpayers’ money - with no plan, no discipline, and no accountability.

Democratic leaders argue that our nation’s $1.5 trillion deficit this year – and trillion dollar deficits for as far as the eye can see – make it too hard to pass a budget this year. But every American family knows what Washington Democrats can’t seem to grasp: in tough times it’s more important - not less - to have a budget, to set priorities, and to live within your means.

In February, House Republican Whip Eric Cantor (R-VA) and I sent a letter to President Obama, inviting him to use his authority under the Budget Act of 1974 to force Congress to consider spending cuts immediately, and pledging to support him should he choose to do so. We renewed our request in a meeting with President Obama at the White House on February 9, but never heard back from the White House. Whip Cantor and I sent a follow-up letter on May 4. Again, that request fell on deaf ears, even though since 1974, presidents from both parties have used this authority to submit 1,178 rescissions totaling $76 billion.

This year alone, Washington will spend a record $3.6 trillion. That’s $31,000 per household, or one out of every four dollars made in America. But instead of cutting spending to create jobs, out-of-touch Democrats are doubling-down. In fact, since last year, the President has signed into law $1.8 trillion in new government spending and $670 billion in new job-killing tax increases, which has exploded the deficit and pushed the national debt over the $13 trillion mark, a number which will hit nearly $20 trillion by 2015.

More than 100 economists have told us a fiscally-responsible budget will help create jobs, and the American people know they’re right. House Republicans have offered better solutions to cut spending now, and impose real spending caps in the future. We know that higher taxes, higher deficits, and more debt are not the answer. That’s why the Majority Leader is dead wrong about the future of this country, and what we need to do - right now - to make sure the American dream is alive and well for our kids and grandkids.

The UK, in partnership with the EU, is putting a new budget into play as of TODAY which exercises austerity and starts cutting spending. It also has a VAT increase, but their economy is vastly different than ours, and I think that's a necessity for them.

The US response is to simply say "uh-uh....too tough. No budget this year".

Inmates Get Homebuyer Tax Credits: Gov't Report

Nearly 1,300 prison inmates wrongly received more than $9 million in tax credits for homebuyers despite being locked up when they claimed they bought a home, a government investigator reported Wednesday.

The investigator said 241 of the inmates were serving life sentences.

In all, more than 14,100 taxpayers wrongly received at least $26.7 million in tax credits that were meant to boost the nation's slumping housing markets, said the report by J. Russell George, the Treasury Department's inspector general for tax administration.

I am actually a legitimate recipient of the first-time homebuyer's tax credit. I filed in early February and finally got my refund on June 11, 4+ months after I initially filed my return and 3 days after I called the IRS about my refund and was told (after being put on hold for 20 minutes) that I would need to wait at least another 6-8 weeks for it. Yeah, I can't wait for them to essentially be in charge of administering the healthcare system in this country.

On a side note, I'd like to know how the hell someone who's in jail can produce a valid HUD-1 form? It was required documentation to get the homebuyer's credit. Never mind - after all, this is the same agency that told me 3 days before I got my refund that I'd have to wait at least 6-8 more weeks for it, so efficiency is not exactly their strong suit.

Barack Obama is no fool. He is not incompetent. To the contrary, he is brilliant. He knows exactly what he's doing. He is purposely overwhelming the U.S. economy to create systemic failure, economic crisis and social chaos -- thereby destroying capitalism and our country from within.
Barack Obama is my college classmate (Columbia University, class of '83). As Glenn Beck correctly predicted from day one, Obama is following the plan of Cloward & Piven, two professors at Columbia University. They outlined a plan to socialize America by overwhelming the system with government spending and entitlement demands. Add up the clues below. Taken individually they're alarming. Taken as a whole, it is a brilliant, Machiavellian game plan to turn the United States into a socialist/Marxist state with a permanent majority that desperately needs government for survival ... and can be counted on to always vote for bigger government. Why not? They have no responsibility to pay for it.
-- Universal health care. The health care bill had very little to do with health care. It had everything to do with unionizing millions of hospital and health care workers, as well as adding 15,000 to 20,000 new IRS agents (who will join government employee unions). Obama doesn't care that giving free health care to 30 million Americans will add trillions to the national debt. What he does care about is that it cements the dependence of those 30 million voters to Democrats and big government. Who but a socialist revolutionary would pass this reckless spending bill in the middle of a depression?
-- Cap and trade. Like health care legislation having nothing to do with health care, cap and trade has nothing to do with global warming. It has everything to do with redistribution of income, government control of the economy and a criminal payoff to Obama's biggest contributors. Those powerful and wealthy unions and contributors (like GE, which owns NBC, MSNBC and CNBC) can then be counted on to support everything Obama wants. They will kick-back hundreds of millions of dollars in contributions to Obama and the Democratic Party to keep them in power. The bonus is that all the new taxes on Americans with bigger cars, bigger homes and businesses helps Obama "spread the wealth around."
-- Make Puerto Rico a state. Why? Who's asking for a 51st state? Who's asking for millions of new welfare recipients and government entitlement addicts in the middle of a depression? Certainly not American taxpayers. But this has been Obama's plan all along. His goal is to add two new Democrat senators, five Democrat congressman and a million loyal Democratic voters who are dependent on big government.
-- Legalize 12 million illegal immigrants. Just giving these 12 million potential new citizens free health care alone could overwhelm the system and bankrupt America. But it adds 12 million reliable new Democrat voters who can be counted on to support big government. Add another few trillion dollars in welfare, aid to dependent children, food stamps, free medical, education, tax credits for the poor, and eventually Social Security.
-- Stimulus and bailouts. Where did all that money go? It went to Democrat contributors, organizations (ACORN), and unions -- including billions of dollars to save or create jobs of government employees across the country. It went to save GM and Chrysler so that their employees could keep paying union dues. It went to AIG so that Goldman Sachs could be bailed out (after giving Obama almost $1 million in contributions). A staggering $125 billion went to teachers (thereby protecting their union dues). All those public employees will vote loyally Democrat to protect their bloated salaries and pensions that are bankrupting America. The country goes broke, future generations face a bleak future, but Obama, the Democrat Party, government, and the unions grow more powerful. The ends justify the means.
-- Raise taxes on small business owners, high-income earners, and job creators. Put the entire burden on only the top 20 percent of taxpayers, redistribute the income, punish success, and reward those who did nothing to deserve it (except vote for Obama). Reagan wanted to dramatically cut taxes in order to starve the government. Obama wants to dramatically raise taxes to starve his political opposition.
With the acts outlined above, Obama and his regime have created a vast and rapidly expanding constituency of voters dependent on big government; a vast privileged class of public employees who work for big government; and a government dedicated to destroying capitalism and installing themselves as socialist rulers by overwhelming the system.
Add it up and you've got the perfect Marxist scheme -- all devised by my Columbia University college classmate Barack Obama using the Cloward and Piven Plan.

Um well, they probably decided to hand them out themselves. We got a refund check this year for a credit they said we had, surprise. That was after paying out the ass in what we owed.

Democratic or Republican only tears people appart, when we are all the same. Could Obamba do more about the crisis? I can't say , allthough i would like to think he could . What the hell does it matter , there is a crisis going on that will affect us all for years to come .Slamming one party , and annointing another is not doing jack shit about the real issue!

Well, I can't say he'd have actually done that (although he may have tried), but I'm reasonably sure that if HE was looking to kick an ass or two, those asses would, by now, be considered thoroughly KICKED. Obama is to Reagan what a 1987 Yugo is to a 2010 Corvette Grand Sport.

No one is blaming Obama for the spill, no more than Bush was to blame for Katrina. The blame comes in the response. Bush was heavily criticized for how he responded to Katrina, and a lot of it was deserved. And now Obama is being criticized for how he's responding to the spill, and most of it is deserved.

This is a major environmental disaster, but Obama waited more than 50 days to even meet with BP officials. He turned down international help. Instead of treating this like the disaster it is, he's out golfing every Saturday. He needs to quit worrying about investigating BP and who's "ass to kick" and start worrying about how to fix the problem.

Yes, it would have been the entire focuse of a Republican President simply because of the negative backlash there would have been against a "big oil" Republican Prez. Every one of the 180 Skimmers between Texas and Florida would be in use, and that cap would have been plugged, just to avoid the "public relations nightmare" that an Oil Catastophy would have caused Bush, or even VP Palin. Could you imagine after 69 days the oil is still leaking? It would be the #1 story on every website, all day, every day. Now its just "oh hum, its bad, but hey, it might not be that bad"...

Pres Obama has said 'no', citing the Jones Act, to countries offering to send skimmers and other equipment (and maybe a way to 'plug the damn hole') that would've gone a long way toward cleaning up the mess in the Gulf.

Pres Bush let foreign vessels come into the Gulf with aid after Katrina.

Obama's stance on the American Flag.


The following is a narrative taken from a 2008 Sunday morning televised "Meet The Press'. The author (Dale Lindsborg) is employed by none other than the very liberal Washington Post!!


From Sunday's 07 Sept. 2008 11:48:04 EST, Televised "Meet the Press" THE THEN Senator Obama was asked about his stance on the American Flag.




General Bill Ginn' USAF (ret.) asked Obama to explain WHY he doesn't follow protocol when the National Anthem is played.

The General stated to Obama that according to the United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171...During rendition of the national anthem, when the flag is displayed, all present (except those in uniform) are expected to stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. Or, at the very least, "Stand and Face It".



NOW GET THIS !! - - - - -


'Senator' Obama replied:


"As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides". "There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression.." "The anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all that sort of thing."



(ARE YOU READY FOR THIS???)




Obama continued: "The National Anthem should be 'swapped' for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd Like To Teach the World To Sing'. If that were our anthem, then, I might salute

it. In my opinion, we should consider reinventing our National Anthem

as well as 'redesign' our Flag to better offer our enemies hope and love.

It's my intention, if elected, to disarm America to the level of acceptance to our Middle East Brethren. If we, as a Nation of warring people, conduct ourselves like the nations of Islam, where peace prevails - - - perhaps a state or period of mutual accord could exist between our governments ."



When I become President, I will seek a pact of agreement to end hostilities between those who have been at war or in a state of enmity, and a freedom from disquieting oppressive thoughts. We as a Nation, have placed upon the nations of Islam, an unfair injustice which is WHY my wife disrespects the Flag and she and I have attended several flag burning ceremonies in the past".




"Of course now, I have found myself about to become the President of the United States and I have put my hatred aside . I will use my power to bring CHANGE to this Nation, and offer the people a new path..My wife and I look forward to becoming our Country's First black Family. Indeed, CHANGE is about to overwhelm the United States of America "

Not that improving relations is a bad thing, but NASA? :noidea:

NASA Chief: Next Frontier Better Relations With Muslim World

NASA Administrator Charles Bolden said in a recent interview that his "foremost" mission as the head of America's space exploration agency is to improve relations with the Muslim world.

Though international diplomacy would seem well outside NASA's orbit, Bolden said in an interview with Al Jazeera that strengthening those ties was among the top tasks President Obama assigned him. He said better interaction with the Muslim world would ultimately advance space travel.

"When I became the NASA administrator -- or before I became the NASA administrator -- he charged me with three things. One was he wanted me to help re-inspire children to want to get into science and math, he wanted me to expand our international relationships, and third, and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science ... and math and engineering," Bolden said in the interview.

NASA Chief: Next Frontier Better Relations With Muslim World

They worship the Moon god. bho's "team" probably rationalizes that NASA is the best conduit to reach them. However, our having actually been to the Moon and determining that there isn't a "Moon god" could prove to be a fatal flaw in that plan. He's a young president. Let him "grow into the job".

See, we don't want to be the "Greatest Nation" in the world anymore. Didn't anyone get the memo?

We can't be the Leaders of Outspace too. That's just going to far. So we are going to have our Space Program now tell the Moslems how "important" they have been to the development of science over the years. I mean hey, those Vests they hand out to their Martyrs are pretty snazzy.

Oh and the way they throw rocks at women who are raped by a gang of men, that takes geometry to get the rock throwing right. And of coarse hanging gays in Iran takes lots of mathematics making a hangman's gallow.

See, they are so good for the world of Science. Its only natural that NASA should praise them.

Rules for B.S. Bingo

1. Before Barrack Obama's next televised speech, prepare your "Bullshit Bingo" card by drawing a square.

I find that 5" x 5" is a good size -- and dividing it into columns --five across and five down. That will give you 25 1-inch blocks.

2. Write one of the following words/phrases in each block:

. Restored our reputation
. Strategic fit
. Let me be clear
. Make no mistake
. Back from the brink
. Signs of recovery
. Out of the loop
. Benchmark
. Job creation
. Fiscal restraint
. Win-win
. Affordable health care
. Previous Administration
. Greed on Wall Street
. At the end of the day
. Empower (or empowerment)
. Touch base
. Mindset
. Corporate greed
. Ballpark
. Game plan
. Leverage
. Inherited (as in "I inherited this mess")
. Relief for working families (alternate - "Unprecedented")


3. Check off the appropriate block when you hear one of those words/phrases.

4. When you get five blocks horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, stand up and shout:
"BULLSHIT!"

Testimonials from past satisfied "Bullshit Bingo" players:

"I had been listening to the speech for only five minutes when I won." -

And in other news, there is a conspiracy in the Left Wing Media...

The Vast Left-Wing Media Conspiracy
Everyone knew most of the press corps was hoping for Obama in 2008. Newly released emails show that hundreds of them were actively working to promote him.

When I'm talking to people from outside Washington, one question inevitably comes up: Why is the media so liberal? The question often reflects a suspicion that members of the press get together and decide on a story line that favors liberals and Democrats and denigrates conservatives and Republicans.

My response has usually been to say, yes, there's liberal bias in the media, but there's no conspiracy. The liberal tilt is an accident of nature. The media disproportionately attracts people from a liberal arts background who tend, quite innocently, to be politically liberal. If they came from West Point or engineering school, this wouldn't be the case.

Now, after learning I'd been targeted for a smear attack by a member of an online clique of liberal journalists, I'm inclined to amend my response. Not to say there's a media conspiracy, but at least to note that hundreds of journalists have gotten together, on an online listserv called JournoList, to promote liberalism and liberal politicians at the expense of traditional journalism.

My guess is that this and other revelations about JournoList will deepen the distrust of the national press. True, participants in the online clubhouse appear to hail chiefly from the media's self-identified left wing. But its founder, Ezra Klein, is a prominent writer for the Washington Post. Mr. Klein shut down JournoList last month—a wise decision.

It's thanks to Tucker Carlson's Daily Caller website that we know something about JournoList, though the emails among the liberal journalists were meant to be private. (Mr. Carlson hasn't revealed how he obtained the emails.) In June, the Daily Caller disclosed a series of JournoList musings by David Weigel, then a Washington Post blogger assigned to cover conservatives. His emails showed he loathes conservatives, and he was subsequently fired.

This week, Mr. Carlson produced a series of JournoList emails from April 2008, when Barack Obama's presidential bid was in serious jeopardy. Videos of the antiwhite, anti-American sermons of his Chicago pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, had surfaced, first on ABC and then other networks.

JournoList contributors discussed strategies to aid Mr. Obama by deflecting the controversy. They went public with a letter criticizing an ABC interview of Mr. Obama that dwelled on his association with Mr. Wright. Then, Spencer Ackerman of The Washington Independent proposed attacking Mr. Obama's critics as racists. He wrote:

"If the right forces us all to either defend Wright or tear him down, no matter what we choose, we lose the game they've put upon us. Instead, take one of them—Fred Barnes, Karl Rove, who cares—and call them racists. . . . This makes them 'sputter' with rage, which in turn leads to overreaction and self-destruction."

No one on JournoList endorsed the Ackerman plan. But rather than object on ethical grounds, they voiced concern that the strategy would fail or possibly backfire.

Among journalists in general, there's always been a herd instinct. Eugene McCarthy, the Minnesota senator and Democratic presidential candidate, once described political writers as birds on a telephone wire. When one bird flew to the wire across the street, they all did. In Mr. Ackerman's case, I'm glad none of the birds joined him across the street.

We've often seen media groupthink in campaigns. In 1980, most of the media decided that President Jimmy Carter was being mean-spirited in his re-election effort with his harsh denunciations of Ronald Reagan, his Republican opponent. The media turned the meanness issue into major story. In 1992, journalists treated the economy as if it were dead in the water, though a recovery from a mild recession had begun early the previous year. I could go on.

I think JournoList is—or was—fundamentally different, and not simply because one of its members proposed to make palpably false accusations. As best I can tell, those involved in JournoList considered themselves part of a team. And their goal was to make sure the team won. In 2008, this was Mr. Obama's team. More recently, the goal seems to have been to defeat the conservative team.

Until JournoList came along, liberal journalists were rarely part of a team. Neither are conservative journalists today, so far as I know. If there's a team, no one has asked me to join. As a conservative, I normally write more favorably about Republicans than Democrats and I routinely treat conservative ideas as superior to liberal ones. But I've never been part of a discussion with conservative writers about how we could most help the Republican or the conservative team.

My experience with other conservative journalists is that they are loners. One of the most famous conservative columnists of the past half-century, the late Robert Novak, is a good example. I knew him well for 35 years. He didn't tell me what stories he was working on nor ask what I was planning to write. He never mentioned how we might promote Republicans or aid the conservative cause, nor did I.

What was particularly pathetic about the scheme to smear Mr. Obama's critics was labeling them as racists. The accusation has been made so frequently in recent years, without evidence to back it up, that it has little effect. It's now the last refuge of liberal scoundrels.

The first call I got after the Daily Caller unearthed the emails involving me was from Karl Rove. He said he wanted to talk to his "fellow racist." We laughed about this. But the whole episode was also sad. I didn't sputter at the thought of being called a racist. But it was sad to see what journalism, or at least a segment of it, had come to.

Mr. Barnes is executive editor of the Weekly Standard and a commentator on Fox News Channel.

Not sure if this has popped up (I'd hate to get whined at again for double-posting :chuckle:).

DIVORCE AGREEMENT

THIS IS SO INCREDIBLY WELL PUT AND I CAN HARDLY BELIEVE IT'S BY A YOUNG PERSON, A STUDENT!!! WHATEVER HE RUNS FOR, I'LL VOTE FOR HIM.

Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters, et al:

We have stuck together since the late 1950's for the sake of the kids, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has clearly run its course.

Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right for us all, so let's just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way.

Here is a model separation agreement:

Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a similar portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After that, it should be relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes.

We don't like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU. Since you hate guns and war, we'll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military. We'll take the nasty, smelly oil industry and you can go with wind, solar and biodiesel. You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O'Donnell. You are, however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them.

We'll keep capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street. You can have your beloved lifelong welfare dwellers, food stamps, homeless, homeboys, hippies, druggies and illegal aliens. We'll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO's and rednecks. We'll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood .

You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we'll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us. You can have the peaceniks and war protesters. When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we'll help provide them security.

We'll keep our Judeo- Chris tian values. You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism, political correctness and Shirley McClain. You can also have the U.N. but we will no longer be paying the bill.

We'll keep the SUV's, pickup trucks and oversized luxury cars. You can take every Subaru station wagon you can find.

You can give everyone healthcare if you can find any practicing doctors. We'll continue to believe healthcare is a luxury and not a right. We'll keep "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" and "The National Anthem." I'm sure you'll be happy to substitute "Imagine", "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing", "Kum Ba Ya" or "We Are the World".

We'll practice trickle down economics and you can continue to give trickle up poverty your best shot.



Since it often so offends you, we'll keep our history, our name and our flag.

CounterPunch Diary
The Fall of Obama

By ALEXANDER COCKBURN

The man who seized the White House by fomenting a mood of irrational expectation is now facing the bitter price exacted by reality. The reality is that there can be no “good” American president. It’s an impossible hand to play. Obama is close to being finished.

The nation’s first black president promised change at the precise moment when no single man, even if endowed with the communicative powers of Franklin Roosevelt, the politic mastery of Lyndon Johnson, the brazen agility of Bill Clinton, could turn the tide that has been carrying America to disaster for 30 years.

This summer many Americans are frightened. Over 100,000 of them file for bankruptcy every month. Three million homeowners face foreclosure this year. Add them to the 2.8 million who were foreclosed in 2009, Obama’s first year in office. Nearly seven million have been without jobs in the last year for six months or longer. By the time you tot up the people who have given up looking for work and the people on part-time, the total is heading toward 20 million.

Fearful people are irrational. So are racists. Obama is the target of insane charges. A hefty percentage of Americans believe that he is a socialist – a charge as ludicrous as accusing the Archbishop of Canterbury of being a closet Druid. Obama reveres the capitalist system. He admires the apex predators of Wall Street who showered his campaign treasury with millions of dollars. The frightful catastrophe in the Gulf of Mexico stemmed directly from the green light he and his Secretary of the Interior, Ken Salazar, gave to BP.

It is not Obama’s fault that for 30 years America’s policy – under Reagan, both Bushes and Bill Clinton – has been to export jobs permanently to the Third World. The jobs that Americans now desperately seek are no longer here, in the homeland, and never will be. They’re in China, Taiwan, Vietnam, India, Indonesia.

No stimulus program, giving money to cement contractors to fix potholes along the federal interstate highway system, is going to bring those jobs back. Highly trained tool and die workers, the aristocrats of the manufacturing sector, are flipping hamburgers – at best – for $7.50 an hour because U.S. corporations sent their jobs to Guangzhou, with the approval of politicians flush with the money of the “free trade” lobby.

It is not Obama’s fault that across 30 years more and more money has floated up to the apex of the social pyramid till America is heading back to where it was in the 1880s, a nation of tramps and millionaires. It’s not his fault that every tax break, every regulation, every judicial decision tilts toward business and the rich. That was the neoliberal America conjured into malign vitality back in the mid 1970s.

But it is Obama’s fault that always, from the getgo, he remained entirely in syc with the premises of the system and flattered Americans with paeans to their greatness, without adequate warning of the political and corporate corruption destroying America and the resistance he would face if he really fought against prevailing arrangements. He offered them a free and easy pass to a better future, and now they see that the promise was empty.

It’s Obama’s fault, too, that, as a communicator, he cannot rally and inspire the nation from its fears. From his earliest years he has schooled himself not to be excitable, not to be an angry black man who would be alarming to his white friends at Harvard and his later corporate patrons. Self-control was his passport to the guardians of the system, who were desperate to find a symbolic leader to restore America’s credibility in the world after the disasters of the Bush era. He is too cool.

So, now Americans in increasing numbers have lost confidence in him. For the first time in the polls negative assessments outnumber the positive. He no longer commands trust. His support is drifting down to 40 per cent. The straddle that allowed him to flatter corporate chieftains at the same time as blue-collar workers now seems like the most vapid opportunism. The casual campaign pledge to wipe out al-Quaida in Afghanistan is now being cashed out in a disastrous campaign viewed with dismay by a majority of Americans.

The polls portend disaster. It now looks as though the Republicans may well recapture not only the House but, conceivably, the Senate as well. The public mood is so contrarian that, even though polls show that voters think the Democrats may well have better solutions on the economy than Republicans, they will vote against incumbent Democrats in the midterm elections next fall. They just want to throw the bums out.

Obama has sought out Bill Clinton to advise him in this desperate hour. If Clinton is frank, he will remind Obama that his own hopes for a progressive first term were destroyed by the failure of his health reform in the spring of 1993. By August of that year, he was importing a Republican, David Gergen, to run the White House.

Obama had his window of opportunity last year, when he could have made jobs and financial reform his prime objectives. That’s what Americans hoped for. Mesmerized by economic advisers who were creatures of the banks, he instead plunged into the Sargasso Sea of “health reform,” wasted the better part of a year, and ended up with something that pleases no one.

What can save Obama now? It’s hard even to identify a straw he can grasp at. It’s awfully early in the game to say it, but, as Marlene Dietrich said to Orson Welles in Touch of Evil, “your future is all used up.”

Anyone find it interesting how the Obama administration is wasting our hard earned tax dollars so the radical imam who wants to build the mosque at ground zero can go to the middle east as a representative for U.S. in talks with muslim nation. Hmmm, why would they send him to the middle east as representative when he said america was an accessory to 9/11? I urge anyone to explain this to me

Yeah...just another example of Obama taking on something Bush was already doing...


Outside of how getting constantly called a radical by American politicians busy flacking the proposed "Ground Zero mosque" for political purposes might affect Rauf's view of what it's like to be a Muslim in America, there's one other big problem with King's and Ros-Lehtinen's accusation: Rauf already represented America in this way, under the Bush Administration.

If one were to hearken back to the halcyon days of the Bush Administration, one would remember that, when Bush adviser Karen Hughes was appointed Undersecretary of State for Public Diplomacy, the Bush Administration saw improving America's standing among Muslims abroad as a part of its national security strategy. And, as such, Hughes set up listening tours, attended meetings and worked with interfaith groups that -- shocking, by today's Republican standards -- included actual Muslims.

One of those people was Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf.

Obama backtracks over Ground Zero mosque after furious 9/11 families label him 'insensitive and uncaring'

Friday: 'Let me be clear: As a citizen and as President I believe that Muslims have the same right ... to build a place of worship and a community centre on private property in Lower Manhattan'

Saturday: 'I was not commenting and I will not comment on the wisdom of making a decision to put a mosque there'
Hamas: Muslims 'have to build everywhere' so they can pray like Christians and Jews

Barack Obama has backtracked over his support for plans to build a mosque near Ground Zero.
The U.S. President was hit by a furious backlash from victims of the September 11 terrorist attacks after he backed the highly controversial plans in a speech on Friday.

The proposed site for the 13-storey building is close to where almost 3,000 people died nine years ago after Muslim hijackers flew two jet airliners into the World Trade Center.

Mr Obama expressed his support for the mosque, which will replace a building damaged by the attacks, at a White House meal celebrating Ramadan.

In his speech on Friday, Mr Obama said: ‘Let me be clear: As a citizen and as President I believe that Muslims have the same right to practise their religion as everyone else in this country.
‘That includes the right to build a place of worship and a community centre on private property in Lower Manhattan, in accordance with local laws and ordinances. This is America, and our commitment to religious freedom must be unshakable.’
But the next day he insisted he had not been commenting on the 'wisdom' of placing a mosque in such a symbolic place.
Challenged about his comments during a family trip to Florida at the weekend, the President said: 'I was not commenting and I will not comment on the wisdom of making a decision to put a mosque there.
'I was commenting very specifically on the right that people have that dates back to our founding.'

Mr Obama said that 'my intention was simply to let people know what I thought. Which was that in this country we treat everybody equally and in accordance with the law, regardless of race, regardless of religion.'
The White House insisted Mr Obama was not backing away from his initial comments.
Spokesman Bill Burton said: 'What he said last night, and reaffirmed today, is that if a church, a synagogue or a Hindu temple can be built on a site, you simply cannot deny that right to those who want to build a mosque.'
He spoke as Islamist group Hamas today backed the mosque plan.
Hamas leader Mahmoud al-Zahar said Muslims 'have to build everywhere' so that followers can pray, just like Christians and Jews build their places of worship.
Al-Zahar spoke Sunday on 'Aaron Klein Investigative Radio' on WABC-AM in the U.S. He is a co-founder of Hamas and its chief on the Gaza Strip.

His first statement is him saying that, in short, because of the constitution and freedom of religion, he supports it...because it's a right.

The second statement is basically saying he's not going to give a personal opinion on the matter.

It's as it should be.

EDGARTOWN, Mass. (AP) - It's Sunday and President Barack Obama is on vacation, so that means it's time for another round of golf on Martha's Vineyard.

His motorcade got an early start for the Vineyard Golf Club for his second visit there during his summer break.

Obama also played on Friday at the Massachusetts island course, which is costly and exclusive but also known for its environmentally friendly landscaping practices.

Even if he can't get to a course, he'll play a round of air golf.

A friend sent me this e-mail. Regardless of your religious beliefs or non beliefs... the message clear.








VIRGINIA CHURCH SERVICE -



STIMULUS SERMON



Genesis 47:13-27



I would love to give the Pastor of this predominantly black church in

Virginia a hug and a high five. This guy is obviously a leader

Perhaps we should each decide who our

real leader is....It is amazing to see that very little has

changed in 4,000 years.

---------------------------------------------------

Good morning, brothers and sisters; it's always a delight to see

the pews crowded on Sunday morning, and so eager to get into

God's Word. Turn with me in your Bibles, if you will to the 47th

chapter of Genesis, we'll begin our reading at verse 13, and go

through verse 27.

Brother Ray, would you stand and read that great passage for us?

.....(reading)....

Thank you for that fine reading, Brother Ray... So we see that

economic hard times fell upon Egypt , and the people turned to

the government of Pharaoh to deal with this for them. And Pharaoh

nationalized the grain harvest, and placed the grain in great storehouses

that he had built. So the people brought their money to Pharaoh, like a

great tax increase, and gave it all to him willingly in return for grain.. And

this went on until their money ran out, and they were hungry again.

So when they went to Pharaoh after that, they brought their

livestock -their cattle, their horses, their sheep, and their donkey -

to barter for grain, and verse 17 says that only took them through

the end of that year..

But the famine wasn't over, was it? So the next year, the people

came before Pharaoh and admitted they had nothing left, except

their land and their own lives. "There is nothing left in the sight

of my lord but our bodies and our land. Why should we die before

your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land for food,

and we with our land will be servants to Pharaoh.." So they

surrendered their homes, their land, and their real estate to

Pharaoh's government, and then sold themselves into slavery

to him, in return for grain. What can we learn from this, brothers

and sisters?

That turning to the government instead of to God to be our provider

in hard times only leads to slavery? Yes. That the only reason

government wants to be our provider is to also become our master?

Yes.

But look how that passage ends, brothers and sisters! Thus Israel

settled in the land of Egypt , in the land of Goshen .. And they gained

possessions in it, and were fruitful and multiplied greatly." God

provided for His people, just as He always has! They didn't end up

giving all their possessions to government, no, it says they gained

possessions! But I also tell you a great truth today, and an ominous

one. We see the same thing happening today - the government today

wants to "share the wealth "once again, to take it from us and redistribute

it back to us. It wants to take control of healthcare, just as it has taken

control of education, and ration it back to us, and when government

rations it, then government decides who gets it, and how much, and

what kind. And if we go along with it, and do it willingly, then we will

wind up no differently than the people of Egypt did four thousand years

ago - as slaves to the government, and as slaves to our leaders.

What Mr. Obama's government is doing now is no different from what

Pharaoh's government did then, and it will end the same. And a lot of

people like to call Mr. Obama a "Messiah," don't they? Is he a Messiah?

A savior? Didn't the Egyptians say, after Pharaoh made them his slaves,

"You have saved our lives; may it please my lord, we will be servants to Pharaoh"?

Well, I tell you this -

I know the Messiah; the Messiah is a friend of mine;

and Mr. Obama is no Messiah! No, brothers and sisters,

if Mr. Obama is a character from the Bible, then he is Pharaoh..

Bow with me in prayer, if you will.

Lord, You alone are worthy to be served, and we rely on You, and You alone.

We confess that the government is not our deliverer, and never rightly will be.

We read in the eighth chapter of 1 Samuel, when Samuel warned the people

of what a ruler would do, where it says "And in that day you will cry out

because of your king, whom you have chosen for yourselves, but

the LORD will not answer you in that day." And Lord, we acknowledge

that day has come. We cry out to you because of the ruler that we have

chosen for ourselves as a nation. Lord, we pray for this nation. We pray

for revival, and we pray for deliverance from those who would be our masters.

Give us hearts to seek You and hands to serve You, and protect Your people

from the atrocities of Pharaoh's government.

In God We Trust....

Obama admits that giving business tax breaks, in other words, lowering taxes will create jobs. He is proposing a changing of the tax on capital improvement. In other words, he is allowing business who buy equipment or business improvement to take the money off on their tax returns. More money in the business pockets .Finally Obama is coming around and admitting the republicans are right. Tax cuts create jobs. Earlier this year, Pelosi admitted the same thing. Stop taking peoples money and they will spend it and stimulate the economy

The ANT AND THE GRASSHOPPER

This one is a little different ...
Two Different Versions ...
Two Different Morals

OLD VERSION

The ant works
hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up
supplies for the winter.

The grasshopper
thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.

Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed.

The grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.



MORAL OF THE OLD STORY:

Be responsible for yourself!



MODERN VERSION

The ant works hard
in the withering heat and the rain all summer long, building his house
and laying up supplies for the winter.

The grasshopper thinks the ant
is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.

Come winter, the shivering grasshopper
calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be
allowed to be warm and well fed while he is cold and starving.

CBS, NBC , PBS, CNN, and ABC show up to
provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper
next to a video of the ant
in his comfortable home with a table filled with food.
America is stunned by the sharp contrast.

How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper
is allowed to suffer so?

Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah
with the grasshopper
and everybody cries when they sing, 'It's Not Easy Being Green...'

ACORN stages a demonstration in front of the ant's
house where the news stations film the group singing, “We shall overcome.”

Then Rev. Jeremiah Wright
has the group kneel down to pray for thegrasshopper's sake.

President Obama condemns the ant and blames
President Bush, President Reagan, Christopher Columbus, and the Pope
for the grasshopper's plight.

Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid
exclaim in an interview with Larry King that the ant has
gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper,
and both call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his fair
share.

Finally, the EEOC drafts
the Economic Equity & Anti-Grasshopper Act
retroactive to the beginning of the summer.

The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate number
of green bugs and,
having nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated
by the Government Green Czar and given to the grasshopper.

The story ends as we see the grasshopper
and his free-loading friends finishing up the last bits of the ant’s food
while the government house he is in, which, as you recall, just happens to
be the ant's old house,
crumbles around them because the grasshopper doesn't maintain it.

The ant has disappeared in the snow, never to be seen again.

The grasshopper is found dead in a drug related incident, and the house,
now abandoned, is taken
over by a gang of spiders who terrorize the ramshackle, once prosperous
and peaceful, neighborhood.

The entire Nation collapses bringing the rest
of the free world with it.


MORAL OF THE STORY:

Be careful how you vote in 2010.

How's this for apocalyptic literature?

This was written by a Pastor's wife in biblical prose as a commentary of current events.
It is brilliant.
------------------------

And it came to pass in the Age of Insanity that the people of the land
called America , having lost their morals, their initiative, and their
will to defend their liberties, chose as their Supreme Leader that
person known as "The One."

He emerged from the vapors with a message that had no meaning; but He
hypnotized the people telling them, "I am sent to save you." My lack
of experience, my questionable ethics, my monstrous ego, and my
association with evil doers are of no consequence. I shall save you
with hope and Change. Go, therefore, and proclaim throughout the
land that he who proceeded me is evil, that he has defiled the nation,
and that all he has built must be destroyed. And the people rejoiced,
for even though they knew not what "The One" would do, he had promised
that it was good; and they believed. And "The One" said " We live in
the greatest country in the world. Help me change everything about it!"
And the people said, "Hallelujah! Change is good!"
Then He said, "We are going to tax the rich fat-cats." And the
people said "Sock it to them!" "And re-distribute their wealth." And
the people said, "Show us the money!" And the he said, "
redistribution of wealth is good for everybody.."


And Joe the plumber asked, " Are you kidding me? You're going to
steal my money and give it to the deadbeats??" And "The One"
ridiculed and taunted him, and Joe's personal records were hacked and
publicized. One lone reporter asked, "Isn't that Marxist Policy?"
And she was banished from the kingdom.

Then a citizen asked, "With no foreign relations experience and
having zero military experience or knowledge, how will you deal with
radical terrorists?" And "The One" said, "Simple. I shall sit with
them and talk with them and show them how nice we really are; and they
will forget that they ever wanted to kill us all!" And the people
said, "Hallelujah!! We are safe at last, and we can beat our weapons
into FREE cars for the people!" [ Notice anything strange? ↓ ]

Then "The One" said "I shall give 95% of you lower taxes." And one,
lone voice said, "But 40% of us don't pay ANY taxes." So "The One"
said, "Then I shall give you some of the taxes the fat-cats pay!"
And the people said, "Hallelujah! Show us the money!"
Then "The One" said, "I shall tax your Capital Gains when you sell
your homes!" And the people yawned and the slumping housing market
collapsed. And He said. "I shall mandate employer-funded health care
for every worker and raise the minimum wage. And I shall give every
person unlimited healthcare and medicine and transportation to the
clinics." And the people said, "Give me some of that!"
Then he said, "I shall penalize employers who ship jobs overseas."
And the people said, "Where's my rebate check?"

Then "The One" said, "I shall bankrupt the coal industry and
electricity rates will skyrocket!" And the people said, "Coal is
dirty, coal is evil, no more coal! But we don't care for that part
about higher electric rates." So "The One" said, Not to worry. If
your rebate isn't enough to cover your expenses, we shall bail you out.
Just sign up with the ACORN and you troubles are over!"


Then He said, "Illegal immigrants feel scorned and slighted. Let's
grant them amnesty, Social Security, free education, free lunches,
free medical care, bi-lingual signs and guaranteed housing..." And
the people said, "Hallelujah!" and they made him King!


And so it came to pass that employers, facing spiraling costs and
ever-higher taxes, raised their prices and laid off workers. Others
simply gave up and went out of business and the economy sank like unto
a rock dropped from a cliff.
The banking industry was destroyed. Manufacturing slowed to a
crawl. And more of the people were without a means of support.

Then "The One" said, "I am the "The One"- The Messiah - and I'm here
to save you! We shall just print more money so everyone will have
enough!" But our foreign trading partners said unto Him. "Wait a
minute. Your dollar is not worth a pile of camel dung! You will have
to pay more... And "The One" said, "Wait a minute. That is
unfair!!" And the world said, "Neither are these other idiotic
programs you have embraced. Lo, you have become a Socialist State and
a fourth-rate power. Now you shall play by our rules!"


And the people cried out, "Alas, alas!! What have we done?" But yea
verily, it was too late. The people set upon “The One” and spat upon
him and stoned him, and his name was dung. And the once mighty nation
was no more; and the once proud people were without sustenance or
shelter or hope. And The Change "The One" had given them was as like
unto a poison that had destroyed them and like a whirlwind that
consumed all that they had built.

And the people beat their chests in despair and cried out in anguish,
"Give us back our nation and our pride and our hope!!" But it was
too late, and their homeland was no more.

You may think this a fairy tale, but it's not.
It's happening RIGHT NOW
