Returning to the Constitution, that’s what Republicans want to do in the new Congress. In the last year, the two hundred and twenty-three year old document has been getting a whole lot a lip service so when the One hundred and twelfth Congress is sworn in next week expect to hear a lot more about it because the Constitution is at the center of three coming Congressional battles. —Nora Roberts
Nora Roberts on the daily rundown interviewed Ezra Klein of The Washington Post regarding Republicans who have the majority in the House of Representatives coming in January. They discuss Republicans’ plan to read the Constitution in the House and Republicans’ plan to cite Constitution authority for every bill when 112th Congress reconvenes.
…You can say two things about it, one it has no binding power on anything. And two the issue of the Constitution is not that people don’t read the text and think they’re following. The issue with the Constitution is that the text is confusing because it was written more than a hundred years ago and what people believe it says differs from person to person and differs depending on what they want to get done. –Ezra Klein
(see 5:23min video)
Again, there’s a very instrumental relationship people have with the Constitution. This goes from sort of us on the ground here in politics to the Supreme Court where Scalia, Thomas and other members of it tend to be on different sides of an issue, states’ rights (not audible) more federalist interpretation of things like marijuana regulation. When of course, that with their political beliefs comes down to a very cynical view of jurist prudence on the Constitution in that it seems to me that these battles almost always break down along partisan lines and have very little to do with any sort of enduring internal understanding of the document.—Ezra Klein
Are Progressive Liberals really attempting to undermine the U.S. Constitution rather than comply with what we have taught about it for over two hundred years? This One hundred twelfth Congress is going to be very interesting .
"Maybe I'm the only one in the country that could look you right in the eye right now and tell you, 'I was here when that baby was born.'" —Hawaii Democratic Gov. Neil Abercrombie
Apparently, polls indicate that Barry Hussein Soetoro is in trouble. Enough Americans doubt his eligibility to be president that he and people on his behalf are mounting a full frontal assault against people seeking the truth about his legitimacy. This effort is a blatant and calculated attempt to protect the one Achilles heel of Soetoro’s presidency, whether he is Constitutional ineligible to hold the office in which he sits.
Soetoro needs not only change public opinion but he needs to discredit any persons who would dare raise questions concerning his eligibility. These efforts are essential to prevent the possibility of Soetoro having to provide evidence of his eligibility before the 2012 elections.
Why else would the recent elected Democrat governor of Hawaii in his own words, be the only one in the entire country that can say he was in Hawaii when, “that baby was born.” Gov. Abercrombie's statement apparently referring to the president who has hidden all of his vital records from the American people since, during and before he received the Democrat nomination to be their candidate for the presidency.
Abercrombie’s claim that he will “show proof” (independent of the president) of Soetoro’s birth is an old Socialist-Communist counter-intelligence ploy of attempting to discredit and shame people away from the truth. This new attempt is to further establish the lie that Soetoro is eligible to be president while giving the president plausible deniability that he activity participated in lying about his ineligibility.
All of the demonizing of Americans from the Left, all of the media conspiracy and cover up has been to obscure the truth, not to uncover the truth, regarding the greatest fraud perpetrated on the United States in America since its inception
Following is Attorney Phillip Berg, Democrat partisan who was the first to publicly raise questions concerning Barry Hussein Soetoro’s eligibility. (see 5:07min video)
The president’s refusal to show any of his vital records, any of his school records or any of his legislative history while he was a state representative in Chicago enabled Soetoro’s Manchurian candidacy to usurp the presidency. Now that many more of American people are aware that Howard Dean, Nancy Pelosi and the Democrat National Committee did not properly vet his man and they are demanding to see those hidden records.
The only reason that Democrats are themselves raising this issue is Democrats believe they can attack the America people who are questioning the lack of bona fide proof that Barry Hussein Obama is eligible to be President of the United States of America. (see here and here)
However, the only person responsible for the doubt about Barry Hussein Soetoro’s eligibility is Barry Hussein Soetoro! Before president Soetoro received the nomination to be the Democrat candidate for president the challenge to his eligibility came up within his own Party by attorney and Democrat Partisan Phillip Berg instead of Soetoro releasing his original birth certificate then, as candidate John McCain did, Soetoro fought against showing his records to the extent of over a million dollars of attorney fees to protect his secrets.
Gov. Abercrombie efforts in no way should be construed that he is attempting to divulge the truth concerning Soetoro’s eligibility, he is not. To the contrary, if president Soetoro is exposed the complete Left wing Progressive Liberal Democrat agenda is revealed as fraudulent. So whatever Abercrombie is doing it is not to reveal the truth.
Likewise, the Governor’s careful distancing himself from the president is very revealing. It shows that the Soetoro administration wants the benefit of saying the president is eligible without actually being required to show actual proof. The president could have ended this controversy long ago by being the most transparent president in the history of the United States instead he chose not to reveal his vital records thus placing a cloud of suspicion over his own presidency.
Of course, had he been transparent he would have revealed himself, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Howard Dean, Charles Schumer and Democrats as the most corrupted traitorous politicians of all time.
It isn’t Fox News Viewers who are misinformed, its anti-Fox News advocates who attempt the vilify the truth in order that the radical Left wing socialist agenda of the Democrat Party can continue in relative ignorance.
Liberals recently used a fraudulent University of Maryland study to continue their attacks against what they perceive as Conservative ideas and values. (see 21:10 video)
The entire Liberal agenda, whether it be homosexuality, illegal aliens, abortion or Barry Hussein Soetoro’s eligibility to be president is bases on fraud, deception and misinformation. That is why the University of Maryland released their bogus study; they are a part of the vast Left wing conspiracy of misinformation as proven by this critique by “How the World Works”.
If you want to know the truth, you surely won’t get it from MSNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC, PBS, CNN or any of the left wing media propaganda outlets. Contrary to Liberals and Liberal propaganda your best hope for anything resembling truth is Fox News, but even there you must filter out Liberal influences.
Instead of seeking journalistic truth Chris Matthews, Clarence Page and David Corn proves why the mainstream media is held in such low esteem.
Over 40% of American either doubt or don’t know whether the president of the United States of America is constitutionally legal to hold the office, which he currently holds.
Matthews poses the question in the best journalistic tradition that he knows how, why doesn’t the president release his original document? Yet in spite of that all three men spend the entire discussion defending the president’s deception, secrecy and lack of authentication. (see 7:44min)
At the 6:25 min point in the video, you can see that even Matthews isn’t buying Clarence Page’s sycophantic allegiance. Matthews asks, so this is a document one could use if they wanted to join the CIA? Referring to the certificate of live birth, both Page and Corn alleges that document would be enough.
All three men insult citizens of the United States of America who want the truth. Not only should the president release the original birth certificate if it can be found as David Corn suggests, but he should release all documents from his kindergarten records to his college records.
Finally Soetoro should release his Chicago legislative records and the original passport, which he used to travel to Pakistan in 1981 when it was off limits and illegal for U.S. Citizens to do so.
Look there are more agents, more technology at the border than ever before and more is on its way. —DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano
Earlier this year the Barry Hussein Soetoro administration ordered additional manpower to the American-Mexico borders. An effort clearly meant to deflect any criticism from the American people who question the president’s and his administration’s lack of efforts to protect America’s borders.
Murdered border patrol agent Brian Terry's family heard the words of Napolitano at their fallen family member’s funeral as well as the message that Napolitano brought from the president, yet they were uncomforted by the political rhetoric that is constantly spewed from this administration. (see 4:09min video)
At every occasion, even the needless death of an American who was murdered due to the failed policies of the Soetoro administration, this government continues it’s deception. Sure, they’ve assigned more agents to the borders so they can say that they have more agents and more technology and that this president as done more than any other president but it is only a dog and pony show.
None of Soetoro’s efforts were meant to enforce the border. Soetoro’s efforts are all an illusion a political talking point to use against political opponents. They are but empty words-words that found themselves at the funeral of a dead American who give his life for what America used to be.
Brian Terry lived as an America that honored the constitution, its borders and the American people. Nevertheless, he died an American who honored his country but whose country, under this administration, that is dishonoring the things for which Terry died.
Napolitano‘s empty words made the death of agent Brian Terry vain according to agent Terry’s family. More Americans are being to realize that the Soetoro administration makes living as an American equally as vain.
Under this the regime of most anti-American administration in the history of America living or dying has became meaningless for citizens and patriots.
This is why in 2012 we must rid the government of Progressives, Liberals and RINO’s and begin anew. We must do this so that Brian Terry’s death or Americans who are now living or Americans who have gone before us, who lived and died for the American dream, their lives, and our lives, will not forever be in vain.
Rarely does a political pundit capture the intricacies as well as the broad overarching ramifications of politics as did Jennifer Rubin in her article entitled, Psst, there’s no Obama comeback. here
As visions of DADT fairies dance in the heads of Liberals, Democrats and RINOs the reality is that, what is one Party's success is actually the country’s doom. Sure the progressive agenda was advanced under the 111th Democrat controlled Congress and any Democrat president, Hillary or whomever, could have signed into law what the radical Pelosi left unleashed on the American people with their super major in Congress.
The point is simply this, what Democrats strong-armed into law was purely partisan legislation and its ramifications will regurgitate throughout American life like puked spoiled milk for years to come.
So rejoice the vandals have sacked the Roman Empire once again, first in AD 455 and now in AD 2010. One thousand five hundred and fifty-five years later the barbarians have bust asunder the gates of Western civilized society and have laid waste to the last vestige of a free people.
When the Progressive heathens end, their celebratory dances around the fires of destroyed Western morality or when they end their Hawaiian and Winter Solstice vacations the draconian acts will begin.
Look for FCC net neutrality regulation, the end of free speech, as we know it, Rev. Al Sharpen led FCC persecution of Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and other Conservatives are already scheduled.
All the while EPA carbon emissions regulations (fines and harsh penalties) are on tap. Not to forget the further attacks against the institution of marriage, the dismantling of the meaning of what it means to be a citizen of the United States of America and the demolishing of Constitutional Republic that heretofore was the United States of America by a Left trained Federal and State judiciary.
The American voter intervention of November 2010 meant nothing to Democrats or it was too little to late as proven by the December flurry of Progressive Socialist legislative victories.
Is there any hope? Jennifer Rubin seems to suggest that Americans are intelligent enough to discern between the nuances of political successes that the president and his Party have just enjoyed opposite of legislative achievement.
But liberal media mavens have a narrative that resists "bad news" (i.e. scandals, polling, the Tea Party movement) that suggests trouble for the Obama administration. They also confuse legislative achievement with political success. If passing stuff was the secret to a political comeback, then the Democrats after ObamaCare and the stimulus plan would have had the greatest year ever.—Jennifer Rubin
While I agree with Ms. Rubin that Progressives have just “pass[ed] stuff,” on the strength of their super majority. What I’m not quite sure of is whether Americans can withstand the media brainwashing that will ensue to ensure each one of us that though unemployment remains detrimentally high at or above 9.8%. In spite of no job creation by this administration, pro Soetoro media will attempt to convince Americans that what the president accomplished is monumental and deserving of accolades.
Why he just might be deserving of a Nobel Peace Prize (this time) or a second term as president they’ll advance.
To which I’ll say fine where’s the jobs he’s repeatedly promised, where’s the repaired economy he said the three stimulus packages he asked for and got would fix and where is the birth certificate?
These things he should have done to the exclusion of his Progressive agenda.
Since 2000 there has been an all out full press media attack against Conservatism in this country. From Dan Rather to NPR the media has shown bias for the Left wing Liberal agenda and has run as point guaranteeing victory for the Socialist Liberal agenda.
Follow is just a sampling of the media taking a victory lap with the president that they empowered to destroy the America system. Or as he would call what he is doing, fundamentally changing America. (see 2:38min video)
Needless to say this type of press is not what the founding fathers had in mind when they gave the press constitutional protection in the 1st Amendment.
Well, these agencies, including the Defense Department, don’t know how much money they’ve got and for what. And I was at – forgive the expression – a Christmas party at the Department of Justice and people actually were really worried about this.—Nana Totenberg, NPR
When did Christmas become the C-word to Liberals? Well according to Liberals at National Public Radio the word Christmas can not be uttered without a preemptive apology for using such an offensive expression as Christmas. It seems in the Liberal mind the mere mentioning of the word is insulting, but to whom? (see 42sec video)
Interestingly enough, one could find the expression – the Department of Justice –under president Barry Hussein Soetoro and AG Eric Holder as offensive to Americans as any word in the American lexicon including the C-word.
“Dr. Martin Luther King, who really was in some ways the father of our nation’s environmental justice movement, may have put it best when he declared, and this is a phrase that we all know, that ‘injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere,”—AG Eric Holder
In strict classic Liberal revisionist history, AG Eric Holder names Dr. MLK Jr. as the father of America’s environmental justice movement. (see 1:39min video)
Hey wasn’t Environmental Justice the self-proclaimed communist Van Jones’ shtick? Holder can’t be serious. They’re going to reinstitute Jones’ environmental justice under the guise of civil rights. Remember Jones claimed that the environmental justice movement is a tool to redistribution Western wealth. (see 2:44min video)
I think it suffices to say that Dr. King did not intend for his work to be bastardized by scrupleless ideologues who would equally claim as well that Dr. Kings I have a Dream speech included illegal aliens.
Tax bill that the Harry Reid led Senate passed is unconstitutional.
So why is president Barry Hussein Soetoro applauding an unconstitutional act once again (see here). After the Health care bill was declared unconstitutional, it seems like the word unconstitutional and the president’s name are synonyms these days.
First, he touted the unconstitutional Health care law. here
All bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives--U.S. Constitution - Article 1 Section 7
Now he’s encouraging the Senate’s unconstitutional tax extension bill because many Democrats in the House of Representative, where this type of bill is supposed to originate, are opposed to it. There is no wonder why Americans see this Democrat administration and this 111th Democrat controlled Congress as a lawless Oligarchy.
Representative Michelle Bachmann (R-Minn) shares what the Congress did wrong in passing the tax extension and what she plans to do to end the Congressional ignorance. (see 1:55 min video)
According to Rep. Bachmann Congress has been acting outside of the Constitution. A fact that didn’t seem to bother president Barry Hussein Soetoro, Harry Reid or Nancy Pelosi.
Former Presidential advisor Condoleezza Rice in perhaps one of the finest explained answers regarding the decision to go to war with Iraq takes a farcical Katie Couric question on the subject of, what the Bush administration would have done if they knew then what we know now. Rice’s professorial response uncovered Couric’s obtuseness without Couric realizing it. I say this principally because Couric ventured the question again indicating that she didn’t understand that she had be revealed. (see 6:21 video)
Of course, in Couric’s desire to construct a question that reflected badly on the Bush administration’s decision to go to war, she did not consider that Rice was skilled enough to explain the flaw in Couric’s logic.
Instead of reflecting badly on Bush as she intended Ms. Couric’s Liberal bias as well as her faux journalist abilities were exposed.
[W]hile the Department of Labor prepares for a hyper-aggressive enforcement strategy against business, it has rolled back Bush-era reforms mandating greater union transparency. Just this week the department rescinded its Form T-1, which required unions to report on strike funds and other accounts under union control. —John Fund
9.8% official unemployment in the country and you thought that the Barry Hussein Soetoro administration was attempting to save or create jobs. Wrong! This administration is waging a secret executive order and government bureaucratic war against American business.
Frank McCafferty reports for Americans for Limited Government (see 2:58min video)
President Soetoro has put in place a well-funded stealth army of 400 attorneys in the DOL meant to attack business under the radar while you get propaganda from ABC, NBC,CBS and MSNBC reporting that everyone in the Soetoro administration is surprised at the 9.8% unemployment numbers. The story that you and I are supposed to believe is, they are doing the best they can with the “Bush recession.”
John Fund of the Wall Journal reports on the Soetoro plan to dismantle American business. (see story)
On Sept. 22, Labor's Office of the Solicitor—which employs 400 attorneys to enforce the nation's labor laws—issued a draft "operating plan" to dramatically increase pressure on employers. A source inside the department says the plan has been adopted.
Patricia Smith, who heads the solicitor's office, told me in an interview yesterday that the plan is a "living document" that will "never be finalized." Whatever its status, it includes the following:
• "Identify a public affairs liaison in each Regional Office" to "send stronger, clearer messages to the regulated community about DOL's emphasis on litigation."
• "Engage in enterprise-wide enforcement."
• "Engage in greater use of injunctive relief"--John Fund
This administration cannot be trusted as proven by repeated disclosures of its use of political subterfuge i.e., their phony political claim that they have saved or created an unverifiable 3 million jobs and their claim that the 700 billion-stimulus package worked to stimulate the economy.
If business is going to survive in this country this whole progressive socialist government, executive, legislative, judicial and bureaucratic mess must be purged.
Kennedy School students who want to learn from sociologist and activist Marshall Ganz get a flavor of Barack Obama pretty early on. On the first day of his “Public Narrative” class, Ganz shows a video of Obama’s 2004 Democratic Convention speech, pointing out how Obama’s story of his parents’ “improbable love” sets the stage for an inspiring call to action. -- KARIM BARDEESY
How does a community organizer get himself elected president of the United States of America? According to fellow community organizer, socialist and lecturer in public policy at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University, Marshall Ganz all one must do is exploit voters with formulated manipulative stories. Oh, like the ones president Barry Hussein Soetoro told to be elected.
Apparently so, in fact Ganz is teaching classes on the method at Harvard not to mention that he is the one who crafted the Barry Hussein Soetoro campaign.
The mad hatter of political punditry Howard Dean lends his voice in deciphering just how easy it is to fool the American people with Saul Alinsky type of tactics. (see 3:21min video)
What voters didn’t know was they were not getting to full story of Barry Hussein Soetoro. That story was hidden away with all of this school records from kindergarten through college. The Soetoro birth certificate and all records of his legislative history in Chicago Illinois all hidden and voters didn’t know because Democrats kept the focus on Bush in 2008 even though Bush wasn’t running.
This was a brilliant political move for Democrats, but not so good for the country because it allowed a completely unknown quantity to slip into the White house without going through the process of vetting. (see previous post)
For purely political reasons Democrats did not vet Barry Hussein Soetoro in 2008. However, in 2012 it is up to the Republican Party to rise the questions that are on all of our minds, regarding a president who doesn’t seem to like America and American values. We cannot depend on Democrats to force the president to answer all of the questions, which currently swirl around his presidency; it’s not in their interest to do so.
Now that we’ve digested the phony Barry Hussein Soetoro story, it is time for the real story to come out. I believe this man is unelectable with such a secretive life story when he promised the most transparent administration in the history of America.
The Soetoro promise of transparency is the “Read my lips, no new taxes” Achilles heel of the Soetoro presidency. If Republicans fault to use the Soetoro secrecy against him now and until the election, it shows that they really don’t what to win, it won’t matter who runs Republican.
Republicans are running against the most sinister deviant political machine of recent memory if what Howard Dean is saying is true. Nothing save the truth about Soetoro will end the deception, which Democrats are using against the American people.
If voter exploitation helped elect Soetoro then only the disinfectant of sunlight on the Soetoro secrets will bring the American people out of the shadows of deceptive Democrat politics.
"It's breaking the rules to break the record. You don't change the way you do business to meet some quota. Morton said we don't do quotas. But that's what this is." -- Chris Crane, president of the American Federation of Government Employees National Council 118
It’s not Wikileaks but the secret it exposes is just as damaging to the Barry Hussein Soetoro administration as any secrets revealed by Julian Assange. The Soetoro administration is cooking the books in an attempt to make itself look tough on Illegal Immigration deportation as revealed in interval emails and interviews.
Andrew Becker of the Center for Investigative Reporting based in Berkeley, California reports, [f]or much of this year, the Obama administration touted its tougher-than-ever approach to immigration enforcement, culminating in a record number of deportations. (see story)
What this story represents is the corruption of this president and the way his administration deceives and misinforms the American people. This is the Sotoro administration’s attempt to give the appearance of doing something while in fact they do the polar opposite.
Here is how it works. The Soetoro administration has set a goal of 392,862 deportations, that number is greater than last year number of 389,834 deportations. A greater number gives the administration the factual claim that under president Soetoro there is not a decrease in deportation of illegal aliens in fact deportation numbers are going up.
Now how does the administration arrive at those numbers plus keep their special interest constituents happy, which I’m sure you would agree are two contradictory propositions.
First, they must skew the numbers. Mr. Becker reports that:
• The 392,862 deportations, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement included more than 19,000 immigrants who had exited the previous fiscal year, according to agency statistics.
• ICE also ran a Mexican repatriation program five weeks longer than ever before, allowing the agency to count at least 6,500 exits that, without the program, would normally have been tallied by the U.S. Border Patrol.
• Even still, the agency still was in jeopardy of falling short of last year's mark so they quietly directed immigration officers to bypass backlogged immigration courts and time-consuming deportation hearings whenever possible.
• ICE instructed employees to offer illegals a quick pass to their countries without a negative mark on their immigration record. Such an offering called Voluntary Return or VR doesn't bar the illegal from applying for legal residence or traveling to the United States in the future.
Once the administration reached its targeted “deportations”, it was business as usual according to ICE agents.
In a bid to remake the enforcement of federal immigration laws, the Obama administration is deporting record numbers of illegal immigrants and auditing hundreds of businesses that blithely hire undocumented workers.-- Peter Slevin source
However in order to keep their core constituency of illegal alien activists happy, while the Soetoro administration is touting how tough they are, by the numbers, of deportations they’ve recorded they quietly remake federal enforcement of immigration laws. While at the same time, they release thousands of illegal aliens detained at facilities across the country if the illegal has a potential path to legal residency.
The Obama administration is moving to release thousands of illegal immigrants detained at facilities across the country if the immigrants have a potential path to legal residency.-- Shankar Vedantam source
This conflicting policy as cause internal wars between the administrations appointed officials and agents of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement who must carry out the duplicitous policies of the Soetoro administration.
As it poises for further immigration initiatives, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is struggling with festering internal divisions between political appointees and career officials over how to enforce laws and handle detainees facing deportation.—Andrew Becker source
The Soetoro duplicity is meant to confuse the issue of illegal entry. As they have confused the issues of unemployment, the bailouts, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, Homosexuals in the military, Health care and every other issue that they have touched.
This president has created consist states of crisis in this country in attempts to force his radical agendas through Congress and upon the American people. As his former chief of staff once infamously intoned, this administration believes in, never letting a serious crisis go to waste.
President Soetoro has done exactly that with the Illegal alien crisis. He and his fellow Democrats have exploited the crisis of illegal entry in this country to make political hay to the detriment of this country.
When in trouble one calls daddy. When Barry Hussein Soetoro got in trouble with his fellow Party members whom did he call, William Jefferson Clinton.
I thought that there was nothing worse than a U.S. president bowing to a foreign power. President Barry Hussein Soetoro did it at least twice. Once to the Saudi King Abdullah then to the Japanese Emperor Akihito
But wait there is something worst. The president and Democrats are spatting like little kids. It seems at his very first attempt to work bi-partisanly with Republicans and Democrats are having none of it. Democrats cursed Soetoro as if he was George W. Bush and threatened to derail Soetoro’s effort.
In an apparent, panic Obama called in moral authority that he doesn’t have. What’s equally surprising is who that moral authority is, none other than William Jefferson Clinton. (see 54sec Video)
It is indeed ironic that president Soetoro called his father figure Bill Clinton into the fray between himself and fellow Democrats as the moral authority.
I grant you that Clinton is the most prestigious Democrat living, however he has no moral authority save what Democrats consider moral authority. Clinton was found to be guilty of lying to a grand jury
Also, need I remind everyone that Osama bin Laden named president Clinton’s immorality specifically as one of the reasons (reason number 4) that he and fellow Muslims declared jihad against the United States of America.
(iv) You are a nation that permits acts of immorality, and you consider them to be pillars of personal freedom. You have continued to sink down this abyss from level to level until incest has spread amongst you, in the face of which neither your sense of honour nor your laws object.
Who can forget your President Clinton's immoral acts committed in the official Oval office? After that, you did not even bring him to account, other than that he 'made a mistake', after which everything passed with no punishment. Is there a worse kind of event for which your name will go down in history and remembered by nations? –Osama bin Laden, Letter to America November 24, 2002 published and translated in Guardian Observer United Kingdom (see article)
No doubt, Clinton is the father of the Democrat Party and like father like son. president Soetoro and the Democrat Party are the offspring of the William Jefferson Clinton lack of morality, an immorality which fuels the Middle East’s hatred of America.
Furthermore, the fact that Soetoro left former president Clinton at the presidential podium to field questions while he hurried away to be at his wife’s side at a Party shows a serious lack of understanding of what being president means.
A president just doesn’t call in his father figure to tell his Party members to behave. Barry Hussein Soetoro has diminished the presidency in so many ways his mere two years in office. This his latest act devalues the office beyond repair and further weakens an already small man.
[J]ust short of asking for the president’s birth certificate, Olbermann tells that president that he is “God Damned Wrong,” for making a deal with Republicans to extend the same tax rates for all Americans that have been in place for the last ten years. --Alaphiah
We all know Joe Wilson, Republican Representative who shouted out “You Lie” while president Barry Hussein Soetoro was making untrue states about Obamacare while addressing a bicameral session of Congress last year.
Who we don’t know is the Democrat Representative who said loud enough to hear, “F*** the President,” yesterday as Democrats where coming to grips with president Barry Hussein Soetoro’s deal with Republicans to extending tax rates for all Americans. The reality is there are no tax cuts for anyone as it’s been falsely reported; these rates have been in place for the last ten years. Nothing is being cut. It all remains the same, IF the tax rate extensions are passed.(see article)
Now in the following clip Keith Olbermann dresses down the president and just short of asking for the president’s birth certificate, Olbermann tells that president that he is “God Damned Wrong,” for making a deal with Republicans to extend the same tax rates for all Americans that have been in place for the last ten years. (see 3:14min video)
Wow! Someone owes Rep. Joe Wilson an apology. Pure unadulterated ideological hatred coming from Democrats as demonstrated in the following clip (see 5:43min video)
If Democrats really hate the rich so much why not go after General Electric which owns several cable networks, news networks included. Not many companies richer than G.E.
Democrats cursed the president worst than anything that Republicans have said about him, F*** the president a Democrat U.S. Representative said. The president is God Damned wrong Radical leftist progressive Keith Olbermann said. Well at least they didn’t drop the “B” bomb on him and call him their highest pejorative…”Bush.”
In an act equivalent of spraying graffiti on the walls of Congress before they remove all of the “R’s” from Congressional computer keyboards, 216 disgruntle Democrat traitors to America of the House of Representatives passed the Dream Act before they leave.
This legislation if passed by the Senate and sign into law by president Barry Hussein Soetoro would give illegal aliens the right to go to college in this country with a path to U.S. citizenship.
Like the health care law, which this out of touch group passed, this bill is also against the will of the America people.
2012 Democrats will suffer for the sins of their lame duck brethren. No matter the Orwellian spin put on this egregious pandering bill the American people are able to see through Democrat nonsensical prattle.
Rep. Jared Polis (D-Colorado) says the DREAM Act "means everything to hundreds of thousands of de-facto Americans. What does treason sound like? Listen to Democrat Representative and co-conspirator Jared Polis offer Orwellian justification for passage of the Dream Act, which would give illegal aliens the right to go to college in this country with a path to U.S. citizenship. Later that evening Nancy Pelosi led her lame duck Democrat House in passage of the bill in a 216 to 198 vote. (see 1:45min video)
Mr. Speaker the Dream Act is one of the most important piece of legislation I’ve discussed on the floor of the house. It means everything to hundreds of thousands of defacto Americans. To them and to all of us it is supremely important and supremely urgent. We have a choice between forcing a brain drain from our country or retaining the best and brightest to contribute to our country and make it stronger and more prosperous.
The young people covered under this bill are the children any parent would be proud of. Our sons and daughters our neighbors, our classmates, prom kings and queens, football players and cheerleaders who stay in school played by the rules graduated worked hard stayed out of trouble.
They’re the children of our great nation. And we too should be proud, not proud of the broken and dysfunctional immigration system and lack of enforcement that put them in this situation. Not proud of their parent’s violation of our immigration laws no matter how out of touch with reality those laws maybe. Not proud of the indignities discrimination and fear that these young people have faced at every turn. But proud of how these young Americans have overcome adversity and demonstrated American exceptionalism.
Their pluck ingenuity ambition drive and creativity in pursuit of as our Declaration of Independence puts it life liberty and the pursuit of happiness. These dreamers embody the very best among our American values and we should be proud to call them countrymen.
This is a great nation and we will be greater still, stronger still, more prosper still with the full participation of those young men and women, each with opportunity to go as far in life as their ambition and their ability takes them. -- Rep. Jared Polis (D-Colorado)
De-facto Americans imagine that another class of special interest Americans. They apparently don’t have to get in the back of the bus behind the other hyphenated Americans they ride the freedom bus straight to college. Halleluiah and Amen!
I said before I felt that the middle-class tax cuts were being held hostage to the high-end tax cuts. I think it’s tempting not to negotiate with hostage takers unless the hostage gets harmed. —president Barry Hussein Soetoro
Hate speech coming from the presidential lectern? That's what it sounded like to me.
In his called news conference president, Barry Hussein Soetoro explained to angry Progressive Liberals the compromise he made which extended the already record 99 weeks of unemployment benefits to jobless Americans in return for keeping taxes at the present level for all Americans. Unemployment had to be extended because millions of Americans remain unemployed in spite of the One trillion dollars spent in the president’s failed economy stimulus package, which did not provide jobs as he promised.
The president used the most bi-partisan language he knew to give an analogy to reporters describing why he was forced to work with Republicans rather than discriminate against Americans. And boy was it hateful! The president wanted to discriminate against some Americans by allowing Bush lower tax rates to expire on some Americas while extending the same lower Bush tax rates for others.
Wild radical leftist of his Democrat Party are demanding that the president discriminate against some Americans and favor others with continuing lower rates that would create more unnecessary class envy than Democrats have already created not to mention possible class warfare their discrimination could cause.
This would have been a clear case of governmental discrimination. Democrats know it but don’t care.
Nevertheless, here’s the most interesting part, in the president’s scenario. Number one the American people were the hostages and number two, the president was their negotiator\savior. So I ask you reader, who are the Hostage takers in the presidents scenario? (see 1:19 video)
The president of the United States of America just referred to the opposition Party as Hostage takers. That is the most politically incendiary hate speech to come out of the mouth of a sitting president in the last 100 years. What? Now members of the opposition Party are equated to terrorists because the president has to work bipartisanly with them?
This is very dangerous speech. The president owes Republicans and the American people an apology for equating an American political Party with terrorists, especially when he refuses to call Muslims terrorists. Muslims, who declared war on the United States and who kill Americans by slitting their throats, placing roadside IEDs, Crashing Airplanes and planting bombs are not called terrorists by this president but Republicans are?
If this is what the president and Democrats think bipartisanship is, then showing Democrats the door in 2012 is our only alternative.
Beware Republicans this is not the first time this president has shown you how he really feels about Republicans. Judging from this statement and others this president hates Republican’s guts.
Be warily in everything you involve yourselves in with him because with hate like this he cannot be trusted.
"We have way too much government and not enough of what made America great[…]The way forward for America is for everybody to start sacrificing so we create a future that is honoring the tremendous sacrifice that came before us…"-Sen. Tom Coburn
Sen. Tom Coburn’s (R-Oklahoma) impactful statement before the Debt commission last week was a call to austerity for the American people. At best, it was a partial diagnosis of what ails America. (see 8:42min video)
Just what are the factors destroying America Sen. Coburn?
Yes, too much government is a part of the problem Sen. Coburn. However Senator you did not address the willful acts and disloyalty of both Congress and Big business in this country. Both of these entities over several decades have outsourced the manufacturing base or infrastructure of millions of American jobs to China and India to enrich both Congressional members, both Democrat and Republican, and Corporations at the expense of the American worker.
The act of outsourcing American middleclass Jobs is the primary down fall of this country Senator. Who is talking about that? Allowing foreign competitors to gain an unfair advantage in our markets, something that foreigners would never do, is what killed our auto industry but who’s talking about that Senator?
So while you call the American people to a new age of austerity let it also be known that internationalist and globalist who were formerly American corporations, plus greedy U.S. politicians are the cause for America’s unemployment woes.
Politicians there sitting at the table with you, have caused the wanton destruction of the most uniquely singular construct for human freedom in the history of the world, the American free enterprise system. Once protected by the American government. But no more. All that is left of a robust American economy is the plaintive cry of a lone politician who believes American austerity is the new “pink.”
To paraphrase an ancient source, “What does it profit men to gain the whole world and lose the truest source of freedom for mankind?” The truest source of freedom for humanity is what America once represented, that has been frittered away by corporate greed and power. Greed and power, which manipulates Congress, and thereby controls the United States of America. Let me be perfectly clear, corporate power enslaves America through America’s Congress.
Therefore, these corporate internationalists or globalists have made what was once the most powerful political and economic government in the world an anemic 99week unemployed weakling that is begging for the pudding of more Christmas unemployment compensation, please! More important, these Corporations and their foul political henchmen are in route to dominate and control the world. Bill Clinton warned of this in 2002 when he said:
[T]his "brief moment in history" when the US had pre-eminent military, economic and political power, would not last.
"This is just a period, a few decades this will last, and I think that all of us who are Americans should think about this and ask ourselves how do we wish this moment to be judged 50 years from now," –Former President Bill Clinton (see story)
It is hard for me to suggest this, nevertheless there is no salvation for America. Internationalists and Globalists have gone beyond the nation-state model and are beginning the world model that we have all been hearing about but discounted as crazed conspiracy talk.
Even so, just look around you. Are you not seeing more and more talk of Global governance and International agreements? What do you think the International meeting held in Cancun Mexico last week discussing the Kyoto treaty and the international funding of politics and the funding Global warming causes are regarding?
I hate to destroy your delusion but Global Warming Climate change and going Green isn’t about saving the planet. These causes are about a new international or global revenue stream independent of people taxed to create it.
However, what made America great Sen. Coburn was national pride, national sovereignty and national self-reliance. I do believe some call those ideas antiquated or by the pejorative, “protectionism” yet they were the ideas that once made this country great. And they are the only ideas that will return this country to its former greatness.
Sen. Coburn let us hear you reprimand disloyal Corporations that gutted the American economy of jobs for decades thus transferring the wealth of this country over to our enemies and to those who hate America. Let us hear you name them and their counterparts in the Congress.
Sen. Coburn let us hear you propose laws that will punish corporations that benefited from the security and resources of America while growing into some of the most powerful businesses the world has ever seen. These companies have now abandoned America by not paying their fair share of taxes because of tax loophole that you in Congress have provided. These companies are now enslaving low waged workers around the world with subpar payment for labor, which perpetuates the cycle of “rich getting richer and poor getting poorer.”
Yes austerity has already come to America Sen. Coburn but let’s be frank, this coming American poverty is not the American people’s fault, neither was it done by happenchance, no this transfer of wealth from the American economy was and is by design.
President Clinton knew it, President Bush knew it and President Barry Hussein Soetoro now presides over it, relishes in it and reminds us of it daily.
Whether Americans realized it, this is the fundamental reason Democrats were kicked out of Congress in November of 2010. Maybe we didn't know exactly what was behind the economic down turn, we did have a right sense that this could not have happened without the implicit consent of our politicians.
Because Democrats are in control of Congress and were in control since 2006, and because Democrats are more closely aligned with Socialism and Government controls that enabled the utter dissemination of the U.S. economy, the American people realized Democrats were at fault.
And even though Americans sent distinctive messages that, we know Democrats are at fault. Democrats brazenly reelected Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi two of the prime causes for our country’s problems back into leadership. Therefore, the American people have no alternative; we must further purge our government of Democrats and RINOs in 2012.
If we are going to return America to the nation of Exceptionalism, that Barry Hussein Soetoro has vowed to fundamentally change we must treat the root cause of this nation’s overspending, the cause for special interest groups revolting in the streets of this nation, the cause for government lawlessness, i. e. not enforcing border law, not enforcing voter laws, not enforcing DOMA law, etc, etc, etc. Democrats are the cause for America turning into a third world ghetto debtor’s nation.
To the extent that any Republicans are at fault, and they are not already clearly identified as RINOs, we will deal with them in 2014.
America is not defined by its borders—president Barry Hussein Soetoro
During a December 3, 2010 surprise visit to Afghanistan, President Obama spoke to the troops at Bagram Air Base.
Although most of what the president said would be expected from a United States president, there was one remark that was most troubling and could overshadow the whole trip. President Barry Hussein Soetoro told the young fighting men and women of the armed services that America is not defined by her borders but instead is defined by what he referred to as a common creed, which is in fact a statement from the Declaration of Independence.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.—Declaration of Independence
(see 28sec video)
Perhaps the president was preparing the men and women of our armed services for their return home where illegal aliens will soon have the right to go to college on the DREAM act pushed by his political Party. Or perhaps he was referring to the already defacto borderless United States Mexico southern border situation.
Nevertheless, this president has stated emphatically that word matter. (see 25sec video)
Please Progressive Media when the president returns would someone show some journalist integrity and ask the president just what he meant by his statement that America is not defined by its borders?
WAR IS PEACE, FREEDOM IS SLAVERY, IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH and UNEMPLOYMENT CREATES JOBS.
In perhaps one of her better Orwellian phrasings Nancy Pelosi insults reason and intelligence with her speech to justify the House passing the longest unemployment extension in U.S. History. According to Pelosi, "Unemployment creates Jobs" like War is Peace.
Orwellian language or Newspeak, as it is formally referred to, is language that says the opposite of what it means by misnomer. So here is my own offering of an Orwellian phrase for the infamous speaker of the house, Democrats are Americans. (see 1:31min video)
What does it do to create jobs? What does it do to reduce the deficit? Unemployment insurance, the economists tell us, return $2 for every $1 that is put out there for unemployment insurance. People need the money they spend it immediately, for necessities. It injects demand into the economy; it creates jobs to help reduce the deficit.
Giving 700 billion dollars to the wealthiest people in America, does add 700 billion dollars to the deficit. And the record in history shows it does not create jobs, it does not create jobs.
I mention this because this is the context in which we bring up this tax cut for middle-income families in America today. And while some on the other side say, ‘This is not going to make a difference.’ It indeed makes a difference.
Let me say unequivocally, there will be no tax bill for any situation unless there is a tax cut for middle class people in our country. That is what this vote is about today. That is our declaration. That is what we send to the table for the discussion that the president so rightfully called for.—Nancy Pelosi
Make no mistake this is not the first time Pelosi characterized paying unemployment benefits as a positive for America. No this is a permanent mischaracterization in the Pelosi arsenal. (see 1:10min video)
Gee and I thought that jobs were created by entrepreneurs who take risks to create goods or services. Those entrepreneurs create new businesses some of those small businesses growing into big enterprises all the while the government does as little as possible to interfere with this process.
However government should do everything to prevent businesses, once successful, from turning against the country, which made its success possible. These traitorous companies are presently identified by the outsourcing of jobs to the enemies of America for profit.
The Barry Hussein Soetoro administration is touting a DoD study it hopes will be the basis for Congress repealing DADT. The poll at the center of this study is not an accurate assessment of those who will be most affected by introducing the open aberrant behavior of homosexuality into U.S. armed forces.
Proponents of the politically correct social engineering scheme of introducing open homosexuality into the military used a highly unrandomized sample, which is not credible, in hopes to affect public opinion and garner support for their cause.
This study is pure propaganda meant to advance the homosexual agenda just as the president said he would do. (see article)(see 2:50min video)
A poll's wording can subject it’s taker to a false dichotomy, such as Do you approve of the military depraving Homosexuals of their Constitutional rights or are you homophobic? Answering this type of biased poll question does not always reflect how people actually think about an issue since the question is constructed to enlist an irrational visceral response.
Even simple yes or no questions do not always reflect the variations in quality of opinion. If the above question were asked straight as: Do you approve of open Homosexuality in the military, yes or no? One might get a completely different response.
Politicians know that most people are poorly trained in logical thought, and in the politician’s own thinking, it is for the greater good to manipulate poor logical thought to lead their constituents toward the "correct" stance. In this case acceptance of the repeal of DADT, which is what the Soetoro administration intends to do. The administration only wishes to sway public opinion by making it seem that Americans are approving of the repeal of DADT.
The DoD in this case, worded this poll and distributed it in a manner they thought would reflect their views, they polled a demographic that responded the way they thought it would and call it a survey (a real scientific survey would have to pass peer review).
This was an asked for and delivered finding. The DoD and the Soetoro administration were looking for approval for homosexuality so they could announce the finding and subsequently end DADT and they found it. This study is not worth the paper it is written on.
China and Russia have decided to renounce the US dollar and resort to using their own currencies for bilateral trade, Premier Wen Jiabao and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin announced late on Tuesday. -- Su Qiang and Li Xiaokun (China Daily)
After U.S. corporations and Congress made China, an economic power China is returning the favor by joining Russia in an effort to crush the U.S. economy. If you have not noticed, China and India’s economies are on fire, which would not be possible without the explicit help of the U.S. Congress and U.S. Corporate enabling. (see story)(see 3:13 video)
This is no accident this event was call for and predicted by none other than former president Bill Clinton in February of 2002 (source)
[T]his "brief moment in history" when the US had pre-eminent military, economic and political power, would not last.
"This is just a period, a few decades this will last, and I think that all of us who are Americans should think about this and ask ourselves how do we wish this moment to be judged 50 years from now," –Former President Bill Clinton
Thus, there are those in U.S. government and big business that have worked and are working against the interest of the United States of America in order to make profit from the expansion of Chinese and India’s markets.
These forces are also attempting to push pass the boundaries of American markets for the plenitude of consumers in international markets and the hope of levying world taxes to fund world government which of course they an Oligarchy of international bankers and businesses would control.
Is this the change that was spoken about so openly yet the majority of Americans did not understand the meaning of its coming? Its coming means the end of the American economy, the end of the dollar and eventually the end of America, as we now know it.
This is the real message of hope and change we just didn’t realize what the first radical leftist Marxist president of the country the was formerly the United States of America had in mind.
The Supreme Court conferred […] on whether arguments should be heard on the merits of Kerchner v. Obama, a case challenging whether President Barack Obama is qualified to serve as president because he may not be a "natural-born citizen" as required by Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 of the U.S. Constitution. -- Brian Fitzpatrick
The nonsensical rulings from courts to date are that the claimants, U.S. citizens, cannot prove that they are injured by the presence of an Usurper in the office of President. The truth is we, Americans, are all injured by the an unconstitutional presidency. (see story)
Unlike other eligibility cases that have reached the Supreme Court, Kerchner vs. Obama focuses on the "Vattel theory," which argues that the writers of the Constitution believed the term "natural-born citizen" to mean a person born in the United States to parents who were both American citizens.
"This case is unprecedented," said Mario Apuzzo, the attorney bringing the suit. "I believe we presented an ironclad case. We've shown standing, and we've shown the importance of the issue for the Supreme Court. There's nothing standing in their way to grant us a writ of certiorari." –Brian Fitzpatrick
The courts have already done a great deal of damage to this country in the way they have handled Barry Hussein Soetoro eligibility challenges. As the Supreme Court decides whether it will allow this case to go forward we all must remember that at least one justice, Elena Kagen, must recuse herself of all participation in this matter. Kagan handled most of the challenges to Soetoro eligibility before she was nominated to the Supreme Court. Her participation in any aspect, even the slightest, of this case would constitute a major conflict of interest.
Following is a Worldnetdaily Primer on the facts of ineligibility of Barry Hussein Soetoro.
Then there are all of the reputable people who have asked that the president clear up the controversy around his eligibility, if the president were an honorable man he would have immediately given evidence of his constitutional standing to be president. Instead this president has spent over a million dollars to prevent Americans from knowing the truth about is birth and background. (see article)
It is believed that the court will come to a decision Wednesday whether they will let the truth be known regarding perhaps the greatest fraud in the history of the United States of America, the so-called presidency of Barry Hussein Soetoro.
I see an insular people who are insensitive to foreign sensibilities, who are lazy, obese, complacent and increasingly perplexed as to why [Americans] are losing our place in the world to people who are more dynamic than us and more disciplined. —Edmund Morris
What two things does writer and author Edmund Morris and president Barry Hussein Soetoro have in common? They are both African-American and they were both born in Kenya. Morris born in Nairobi, Kenya and Soetoro born in Mombassa, Kenya.
It must be a Kenya Africa thing. It seems that everyone who was born in Kenya is hatin’ on America. Soetoro does it all the time and now Morris.
On Bob Schieffer’s, Face the Nation guest Edmund Morris speaking through the eyes of world based on the fact that he is a naturalized American who was born in Nairobi, Kenya. According to Morris, it doesn’t matter to the world that America elected its first unconstitutional Kenyan president. According to Morris, the world still hates America (see 1:53 min video)
I do take exception with Mr. Morris though; America has lost its place in the world not because Americans are lazy. No, we have lost our standing because our politicians have sold our military, technical and business secrets to our enemies and our corporations have taken American jobs and shipped them overseas for decades to increase corporate already usurious profit margins.
The lack of corporate or political loyalty to this country is what ails America Mr. Morris. Without the traitorous actions of American corporations and politicians, there is no China or India economic boom.
WE PAUSE TO GIVE THANKS, WE WISH OUR DEAR READERS A HAPPY THANKSGIVING. GOD WILLING WE RETURN MONDAY
Developers of the controversial Park51 Islamic community center and mosque located two blocks from ground zero earlier this month applied for roughly $5 million in federal grant money set aside for the redevelopment of lower Manhattan after the attacks of September 11, according to two sources with direct knowledge of the matter. —John Avlon
Whether you are for or against the building of an Islamic Mosque at the site described as ground zero, there is no way that you can support the government, your government reported plan to pay seed money for any religious construction under any condition. That would violate your sense of separation of church and state.
Yet your government has been building Mosques all around the world with your money for sometime (see previous post)
The latest violation of the separation of church that your government is involved in is it is about to secretly fund 5 million dollars for the ground zero mosque. (see 3:33min video)
The application was submitted by developer Sharif El-Gamal, the man behind the ground zero mosque, under a “community and cultural enhancement” grant program administered by the Lower Manhattan Redevelopment Corporation (LMDC), which oversaw the $20 billion in federal aid allocated in the wake of 9/11 and is currently doling out millions in remaining taxpayer funds for community development.—John Avlon
These anti-American forces will stop at nothing to manipulate American law and the Constitution in efforts to deconstruct the American model and replace it with Islamic government and Sharia Law.
Unfortunately, there are plenty of willing Americans who disregard the long-term threat of Islamic domination for short-term monetary gain.
Andrea Mitchell reports that a majority of Americans want change.
According to MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell, the majority of American voters feel that Barry Hussein Soetoro does not deserve a second term, with only 43% supporting him for re-election. According to Mitchell polls, shows that 49% say that president Soetoro should be a one-term president.(see 1:35min video)
Democrats seem anxious to dump over an honorable person like Sara Palin while they support a dishonorable man who obtained the presidency by secrecy and deception, a man who still has all his vital records hidden from the American people.
Whoever faces Soetoro must make the records he is hiding the issue. If it is Palin, she has no alternative but to challenge Soetoro where he is the weakest. He is the weakest concerning his birth certificate and his hidden records.
Soetoro’s citizenship is the issue that will end American Progressivism finally in this Nation. Soetoro’s citizenship, or better stated, the lack there of is the lynch pin that ends the complete progressive movement.
“You’ve heard about the controversies within the bill, the process about the bill, one or the other. But I don’t know if you have heard that it is legislation for the future, not just about health care for America, but about a healthier America, where preventive care is not something that you have to pay a deductible for or out of pocket. Prevention, prevention, prevention—it’s about diet, not diabetes. It’s going to be very, very exciting.
“But we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it, away from the fog of the controversy." —Soon to be minority Democrat leader Nancy Pelosi
“…[W]e have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it…” is perhaps the most iconic Nancy Pelosi expression that she has spoken. It tells much about the Democrat Party. This expression alone captures the utter obtuseness of Party leadership while revealing the subterfuge, which this Party is willing to stoop to in order to score the Pyrrhic Partisan legislative victory that mortally wounded Democrat election and reelection chances in the House November 2th. (see .05sec video)
With Sisyphean deception, Pelosi and Democrats passed into law a measure, which she once described as a gift or a Christmas present to the American people. If a gift, it is just as much a gift as the Trojan horse was a gift to the people of Troy. In fact, the people of Troy had to pull the massive horse into their fortified city before they found out that their destruction lurked inside. The Trojan horse instance sums up the Pelosi, Reid and president Soetoro’s health care law.
The American people will only now begin to find out about this disastrous law’s consequences. Consequences, hidden by the appealing aspects of dependent age, increase to 26 years-of-age and insuring preexisting conditions, which Democrats sold to the American people. (see .12sec video)
Meagan McArdle’s the Atlantic article entitled, “In Heath Care, no free lunch” describes how Democrats deceptively sold the health care law to the American people by dangling carrots such as free or very inexpensive health care and improved or extended coverages.
Yet contradictorily, what McArdle reports is a successfully passed health care law does not compare with Democrat promises. Americans must instead deal with the reality of health care that doesn’t manifest into what Democrats promised. (see article)
What people are expecting seems to be a very expensive form of insurance (no gatekeepers or restrictions) on the cheap. What they're going to get is cheap insurance that they will be forced to buy. Moreover, a significant number of workers are going to be dropped from their employer plans and dumped on the exchanges. An even more significant number of workers are going to be shunted onto Medicaid (as I understand it, if you're eligible for Medicaid under the new rules, you have to go into Medicaid, even if you want to buy insurance through the exchanges instead). –Meagan McArdle
Democrats wrote this law in secrecy and designed it to be opaquely difficult to understand, because of this Democrat obfuscation, unfortunately this entire law must be repealed. 112th Congress, there is no question, repealing this law is necessary.
[W]e just told millions of people that they can go to the exchanges in 2014 and buy insurance. There won't be any lifetime or annual limits. There won't be denials for pre-existing conditions. There won't be any surcharges for having such conditions. And it's going to be "reasonably" priced.
My conversations lead me to believe that many people are expecting that the plans offered in the exchanges will be Medicare-like in many ways. I feel like many people think they will have choice of doctor, choice of hospital, and the ability to dictate care. I'm not seeing how insurance companies will be able to offer such products at prices people can afford. As I talk to more and more people in the insurance industry, my thoughts seem confirmed.—Aaron Carroll
Health Care reform is a mess! The American people voted Republicans in to clean up this mess. Only the disinfectant of sunlight from beginning to end will clean the pustule that is the Democrat health care law. Americans know, a mess cannot be built upon or tweaked or fixed a mess must to be completely cleansed. Congress must repeal this bill.
Then-President George W. Bush and then-South Korean President Roh Moo-hyun signed the agreement in 2007, but the Democratic Congress refused to ratify the treaty. Members argued that it didn't do enough to reduce the trade imbalance or protect American workers. During the 2008 presidential campaign, then-Sen. Obama voiced the same concerns, but said as president his team would improve the treaty and push for its passage. —ABC WorldNews
Since being elected president, Barry Hussein Soetoro has repeatedly made highly unflattering recriminations against the former president and the United States of America on the world stage. Soetoro has often cast America as the greedy imperialist colonial world power which stole it’s undeserved wealth from the people of the world. Based on an extremely negative narrative Soetoro has also repeatedly apologized for America’s economic, political and military world dominance and success.
In essence, Soetoro has given those who are jealous of America’s overall success justification for their own economic and political failures. However, more importantly Soetoro has given those who are jealous of America justification for their hatred of America’s system freedom.
Therefore, it’s interesting to me that anyone would be surprised that America is no longer respected on the world stage. What is also surprising is Soetoro failed to get an agreement with South Korea signed. In light of the fact that president Bush succeeded in getting an agreement signed with South Korea in 2007 only to have that agreement blocked by a Democrat controlled Congress which Sen. Barry Hussein Soetoro was a member and who voted to block the Bush and then-South Korean President Roh Moo-hyun agreement. (see 2:05min video)
In Michael Hirsch article, “America’s Rodney Dangerfield Moment” Hirsch seems to bemoan the fact that America has lost respect in the world. However, Hirsch attempts to blame overall U.S. policy over decades as the reason for America’s recent loss of respect.
Though it can be argued that disloyal political and corporate interest have laid the ground work for the destruction of the American economy the present disrespect for America has been a self inflicted wound caused by America disrespecting itself as inter-party machinations of ideologies, Liberalism vs. Conservatism took precedence over loyalty and patriotism to country.
In other words when an America president can be demonized in the manner which former president George W. Bush was by the Left so much so that shoes were thrown at him by Muntadar al-Zaidi an Iraqi journalist or the presidents of Iran and of Venezuela can come to the United Nations on American soil and disrespect the United States president without the hue and cry of the American populace no wonder there is disrespect for America in the world.
There is a spirit of self-disrespect in this nation; the disrespect that the world gives us back is merely a reflection of that disrespect. I was always taught that if a person disrespects his or her self, others would do the same.
America doesn’t respect its own immigration laws so illegals and supporters of illegals fail to respect those laws. When a political Party spends eight years undermining a sitting president as the Left did to George W. Bush that Party plants the seeds of disrespect for the office of the presidency and subsequently the country. That disrespect will eventually come back against it.
Let’s be clear the Rodney Dangerfield moment that Barry Hussein Soetoro and Democrats are experiencing domestically and internationally is disrespect generated by this president and his political Party. It is universal karma.
To borrow a phrase from the president’s former pastor, Democrats your chickens have come home to roost.
And here another thing to note Mr. president, apologies for freedom and Democracy always breeds contempt from the enemies of freedom and Democracy!
