Obama’s MSM Shill, Questioning His Muslim Heritage, and Journalistic Malpractice

Amid the fresh controversy created by the recent release of the results of two polls showing an increasing number of Americans believe Barack Hussein Obama is Muslim, a headline on The Drudge Report caught my eye. It involves some items printed in that bastion of legitimate news, The New York Times (all the news that is fit to wrap fish in; or line bird cages for that matter).

On May 12, 2008, the NYT asked the question – President Apostate? The Times actually had the audacity to ask the questions that needed to be asked, however, they failed to deliver an answer.

From the NYT:

One danger of such charisma, however, is that it can evoke unrealistic hopes of what a candidate could actually accomplish in office regardless of his own personal abilities. Case in point is the oft-made claim that an Obama presidency would be welcomed by the Muslim world.

This idea often goes hand in hand with the altogether more plausible argument that Mr. Obama’s election would raise America’s esteem in Africa — indeed, he already arouses much enthusiasm in his father’s native Kenya and to a degree elsewhere on the continent.

But it is a mistake to conflate his African identity with his Muslim heritage. Senator Obama is half African by birth and Africans can understandably identify with him. In Islam, however, there is no such thing as a half-Muslim. Like all monotheistic religions, Islam is an exclusive faith.

As the son of the Muslim father, Senator Obama was born a Muslim under Muslim law as it is universally understood. It makes no difference that, as Senator Obama has written, his father said he renounced his religion. Likewise, under Muslim law based on the Koran his mother’s Christian background is irrelevant. – emphasis mine

The Times never went beyond this statement of reality. Instead they chose to point to his “chosen Christian faith”.

Since asking the question back in May 2008, the NYT and other “legitimate” news sources have conveniently avoided revisiting the question of Obama’s faith. However, in the dust-up created by the proposed Ground Zero Mosque (the so-called Cordoba House), questions of Obama’s faith has once again entered the American discussion.

A Pew Research poll revealed that 1-in-5 Americans believe Barack Hussein Obama to be a submissive of Muhammad’s delusional visions and rantings. A Time poll on the same subject revealed that 1-in-4 believe Obama is a Muslim. Given that Obama has hosted a Ramadan celebration at the White House, snubbed the Boy Scouts of America by not attending their prayer breakfast, and making statements supporting the planned Cordoba House, the American people are beginning to look more closely at the man with the middle name Hussein. But where is the press?

[cue crickets]

While we again wait for the main stream media to catch-up to the American people and ask the tough questions they should have asked prior to November 4, 2008, perhaps we should move on as if they will choose to continue to ignore their responsibilities in favor of being Mr. Obama’s dissemination of propaganda conduit. Although I think that is beginning to wear on the media as well. After-all, who can glean any information out of Robert Gibbs? The man stutters more than Mel Tillis.

As for the Emperor… What I can’t understand is the love affair that American academics have with the moron. I mean, who takes a teleprompter on vacation? Obama, that’s who. For someone who was to be a great departure from the poor rhetorical skills of George W. Bush he seems to be extremely dependent upon prepared remarks. Bush was best when he diverted from the prepared statements. Obama on the other hand can’t function without his teleprompter. Off-the-cuff Obama is a stammering idiot. No wonder he keeps Gibbs. Birds of a feather etc…

And what is with that smug Leninist posing? It’s like he has a need to show that he is superior to everyone else staring off into the distance in an attempt to show he’s a visionary. It’s called arrogance – a disease of the elite.

The American press has failed the American people. To get honest reporting about the Obama Infestation one has to read news sources in the UK. This fact alone should be proof positive of the journalistic malpractice being committed by the American dead trees and alphabets. Save FoxNews, America’s journalistic community is devoid of any integrity as they actively shill for the Progressive Utopian Emperor. And they aren’t even attempting to hide it anymore.

The White House addressed the latest questioning of Obama’s faith by having a Communications underling tell the White House Press Pool that Obama is Christian and he prays everyday. The fact that he prays everyday isn’t the concern of the people. What the people want to know is if he finds the need to orient his body towards Mecca when he does. “He prays everyday” what kind of fools do they think the people are? Muslims pray everyday as well – 5 times!

I don’t give a rat’s ass if he’s a Muslim unless he wants to be President. If he’s the President of the United States, in a time of war, against an enemy that is waging a war in the name of their religion, and that religion is the same one that the President is accused of being a member of, there are questions that need to be answered.

In 1960, many Protestant Americans worried that John F. Kennedy’s Catholic faith would be an impediment to his ability to govern. After-all, who would he be loyal to, the US Constitution which translates into the American people or the Pope. The same should be asked of Obama. Who is he loyal to? The Constitution – which he has a track record of downplaying as a contract of negative liberties – or is he a submissive to Islam? I fear the truth may be that he is a submissive follower of Islam. Especially when he refers to Muhammad’s horror novel as “the holy Qu’ran” and greets Muslims in perfect Arabic.

In 1960, the American press asked the questions and answers were given. John Kennedy WAS elected President and by all accounts his faith never played a direct roll in his governance. However in 2010, nearly 2 years into the Obama Infestation and the American people are still asking the same questions of Barack Hussein Obama. And like all the other questioning of Obama’s past, it gets avoided. Why is it so important for him to shield the American people from his past? Perhaps it is because he’s on a mission that he’s already explained to the American people at $20 a copy. His book “Dreams from My Father” outlines what his father dreamed of for Kenya. Perhaps Junior is following in his absent daddy’s footsteps and wishes to carry on his pappy’s dream in the United States. It’s called Communism.

At a time when the socialist societies of the world are beginning to downsize their governments, Barry O is expanding ours. Why? It fulfills the strategy of instituting socialism outlined by Columbia Professors Richard Cloward and Francis Fox Piven. The Cloward-Piven Strategy to Implement Socialist Revolution was written in 1966 at the height of civil unrest in the United States. Progressives and Socialists believed they could force revolution. The strategy was then and is now to overwhelm the system and cause it to collapse. It’s on its way thanks to Obama’s Keynesian economic policies.

But where is the press?

I won’t hold my breath.

A Vote for ANY Dem in November is Approval of the Obama Destruction Agenda

The Emperor is on the campaign trail, well sort of as he has been asked to stay clear of those wishing to actually win their seats. Anyway, he’s attempting to convince the American people to keep Democrats in power. His reasoning? Giving the GOP power will return the country back to the policies of George W. Bush. But is this accurate? No. This reasoning is so inaccurate let me count the ways….

First, Obama is President (like it or not) and he is who sets policy not Congress.

Second, George W. Bush couldn’t win in this political environment. Bush is not seen by Conservatives and Libertarians as someone who reflects the common desires of a smaller, less intrusive government. It was the spending of the 109th Congress under the direction of then policy maker George W. Bush which led to the disaster of the 2006 midterms and a repeat of that disaster in 2008 and the election of Obamaramadingdong. Remember the reasoning why every gullible voter was willing to vote for a vague empty suit. The promise of changing the status quo was too much to resist especially when that promise of change is masked by a cloud of ambiguity.

The election of Barack Hussein Obama was a precursor to a statement made by Nancy Pelosi in the days leading up to the approval of the Death Care bill. Remember when she said, “we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what’s in it”? Yeah that statement. Well in relation to the 2008 Presidential election Obama failed to identify what he wanted to change and what he wanted to change it into. He also failed to define in whom or what we should have hope. It was a calculated effort to keep the American voter away from details because if they knew the agenda prior to his election, he would never have gotten elected.

With Death Care the bill got passed so we could find out what was in it and the people do not approve. Likewise, we now know Obama’s change agenda and it too is not approved of.

Progressivism took a 100 year approach to getting their political will which culminated with the election of Obama. His aggressive agenda has alienated the American people who were looking for fiscal responsibility and freedom. Its far reaching intrusion into the lives of the American people are responsible for the creation of the TEA Party.

Speaking of the TEA Party, isn’t it ironic that the largest threat to the Progressive agenda was born out of said agenda? After-all, what exactly IS the TEA Party? Broadly, it is a rejection of Obama Progressivism and its policies.

Congress is polling at 11% which translates into only 11% of the American people believe that the agenda being forwarded by the Congress is in their best interests. The GOP has been out of power for nearly 4 years. The agenda from January 2007 to present has been a Democrat agenda [Read also: that includes the last 2 years of the Bush Administration] not the agenda of the Republican Party.

The GOP has been attempting to reassure the American people and in particular the Conservative “base” of the Party that they have learned their lesson. That remains to be seen. However, compared to the spendaholic ways of the 110th & 111th Congresses, the spending spree of the 109th seems like a spending binge. Sort of like a weekend spending bender that ends on Sunday morning with a hangover that produces promises of reform whereas the spending ways of the current Congress is better explained as being in a state of perpetual spending intoxication. They avoid the impact of the morning after by staying drunk from the night before. No sobering realization of self destruction, no promises of reform. While the GOP has been forced by the American people into a figurative SA (spending anonymous) 12-step program, the Progressive Democrats have no intention of giving up their drug of choice.

As the Emperor is out on the “campaign trail” remember that he only wants you to keep his party in power so they can spend more, tax more, and pass more legislation which erodes even more of your individual liberties. Also remember, he understands that come January 2011, his party’s majority is gone. He is also well aware of the fact that his Presidency is going to be restricted to 1 term. That is the price he was willing to pay for progressing the Progressive agenda.

This point is driven home by a post on the Democrat friendly Politico…

Q: Will Barack Obama be a one-term president?

A: Yes, he might last that long.

Honest to goodness, the man just does not get it. He might be forced to pull a Palin and resign before his first term is over. He could go off and write his memoirs and build his presidential library. (Both would be half-size, of course.)

The visions of the Fabian Socialists who invaded American academia in the early 20th century have their chance. It is Barack Hussein Obama. If he can’t close the deal before he’s tossed out of office and designated along with Jimmy Carter in the pit known as “the worst US Presidents in US history”, he will have certainly gotten them closer than ever to achieving their ultimate goal in the US, turning it into a full-blown socialist nightmare.

Failing to understand who Obama was in 2008 has resulted in what is occurring now. He can blame Bush all he wants but the truth of the matter is the American people understand that this economy is owned by Barack Hussein Obama and the Progressive leadership of the 111th Congress. No matter how much he tries to re-paint and revise that simple and undeniable truth into “this is all Bush’s fault”, this is his mess and it is getting worse not better due to his neo-socialist/neo-marxist ways.

It is now 2 years later and some of the damage can be controlled if only Congress were controlled by the opposition Party. Perhaps aggressive action can be made by a Republican Congress to curtail some of the more harmful items on the Obama agenda through its power of the purse. But in truth, the Obama years will take at least 18 more years to reverse. Giving Obama and Democrats another 2 years to do more damage double that time frame.

Consequently, if you cast a vote for a Democrat for any office this fall, it will translate into your personal approval of what Obama is doing to this nation. If you cast a vote for anyone, and I mean anyone including Dog Catcher, you are endorsing the complete and utter destruction of the greatest nation this planet has ever experienced. If you think that statement is far fetched, remember what Obama said about the election so Scott Brown. He made the case that it was the same angst with the status quo that swept himself into office which then elected Brown to a traditionally held Democrat seat.

In other words, a Democrat being elected Dog Catcher of your little hamlet will somehow be made to reflect the American people’s endorsement of Democrat policy. So short-circuit that by making sure every Democrat is relegated to political irrelevancy.

Will Annual ‘Teacher Bailout’ Be The Next Federal Entitlement?

August 10, 2010 Barack Hussein Obama, Barack Hussein Obama Lies, Democrat Corruption, Democrat Incompetence, Elections, News, Obama Fascism, Opinion, Pelosi - The Wicked Witch of the West, Presidential Distortions, Presidential Politics, The Nanny State, The REAL Culture of Corruption, The Wicked Witch of the West, U.S. House, US Senate, socialism Comments Off

According to a well-known Chinese proverb, “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” The Federal government has so usurped the sovereignty of the various states that they have become dependent upon mother government for their very existence. This is the reason why the United States House of Representatives found itself in session today. That and to give Charlie Rangel an opportunity to whine on the House floor about his persecution at the hands of the Ethics Committee.

The White House and Congressional Democrats were all in a tither about getting a $26 Billion state aid packaged passed that Nancy Pelosi felt compelled to call the House back into session during the August recess. The emergency? To get the legislation passed before the school year begins. Why? So those reliable Democrat votes (teachers) don’t lose their jobs.

Is this going to be an annual event? I mean, is this setting the standard for years to come? Will the House and Senate be recalled from their “much needed” summer recess in order to pass “emergency” legislation so that teachers don’t lose their jobs every August from now until the fall of the Republic? 47 of the 50 states are running budget deficits thanks to mismanagement at the state level and federal intrusion. Unfunded mandates from the federal government and federal aid has made the states dependent upon the feds for funding of all aspects of governance. This is NOT how this nation is supposed to work. If anything, it should be reversed. At least that was the intention of the founders.

Education has become the latest dependency class. Soon to follow will be police and fire departments. Although, the aid package passed this afternoon by the House is a general aid package for states that includes funding for police and fire.

Glenn Beck warned several weeks ago that soon we will have a national police force. He went on to say that it won’t be named as such but follow the money trail.

If the Cleveland Police Department accepts federal funding you should fell safe to bet the farm that the feds will have a dominant say in how the CPD conducts its business. The same can be said of the fire departments AND – Teachers.

Conservative pundits – myself included – understand that this is nothing more than another veiled payoff to a major labor union. Employed teachers equal votes for the Democrat majority. Verbose urging from the Emperor increases his popularity among his base, but only his base.

What isn’t widely known about this bill is that it steals money from another federal program in order for it to be paid for. Beginning in 2014, the federal food stamp program will have a reduction in its planned annual increase in order to keep under-performing and junior teachers in their positions for the 2010-2011 school year. When 2014 rolls around, Progressives around the country will be screaming for additional funding for the food stamp program because this bill gutted the planning increase in funding.

What I find interesting is the choice of which federal spending program to raid in order to keep these under-performing and junior liberal teachers working. The food stamp program. A recent report showed that a record number of Americans are receiving benefits from that very program. Approximately 40.5 million to be exact.

What also hasn’t been discussed in public is the fact that funding for these teachers is already in place. Nearly half of the American Robbery and Redistribution Act funds have yet to be spent. It included funding for teachers, police, and fire but yet the Congress of the United States (House and Senate) with urging from the President, thought that new legislation with an additional funding source needed to be passed now – urgently – before the beginning of the school year so that more liberals turn out to the polls on November 2nd to vote for Democrats. There is no other explanation.

Why use existing funding when they can seem to be taking action by passing new legislation. As I said in another post, it’s a shell game.

I predict that next year there will be a push from the White House to bailout the states again. The cries will be that our school children need these teachers in class when in reality Obama needs their votes.

Dems Poised to Feel Wrath of Voters in ’10 Just As GOP Did in ’06 & ’08

“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” – George Santayana
.

Democrats haven’t learned anything from the failures of the GOP in 2006 and 2008. They have consistently gotten it wrong over the last two election cycles. Democrats falsely believed that the rejection of GOP candidates in the past two election cycles were a rejection of policy. They ran on the mantra of the “Culture of Corruption” and won an unstoppable majority.

Was there corruption in the GOP? Yes there was. Many were beginning to get corrupted by the power that Washington D.C. infects. Many were using their offices to gain personally and others were using legislation to insure re-election. The Pork being enjoyed by many Republican members of Congress in the latter years of the Bush Administration led to the downfall of the GOP.

In 2006 Conservative voters had no one to vote for so they stayed home. In the 2008 Presidential race, the choice was between a Progressive Democrat and a Progressive Republican – Socialist or Socialist Lite. Identity politics played a larger roll than ever before in American politics. The euphoria created by the possibility of electing a minority candidate to the Presidency won over voters and rationale lost.

The GOP’s candidate was selected by the progressive main stream media because they all knew that if given the choice between a Democrat and a Liberal Republican, Conservative voters would bail on the Republican as they did in 2006.

Voter intimidation and fraud did play a roll in the 2008 races as well. But yet, the Obama Infestation doesn’t have any interest in making sure those crimes are never again repeated. After-all, they benefited from those crimes.

Since taking office, Obama and Nancy Pelosi have led their party to the far left. The sheer growth of the federal government and the near Imperial powers now granted to the President by this Congress must have the founding fathers rolling in their graves. The result of all this growth in government is record high deficits which are 4 times the size of those that led to the downfall of the GOP in 2006.

The $427 Billion deficit racked up by the Bush Administration in 2005 pales in comparison to $1.42 Trillion 2009 short-fall and seem like nothing in comparison to the projected 2010 deficit of $1.75 Trillion. To put the Bush deficits into context, during his 8 years in office, Bush added $4.9 Trillion to the national debt. If you just take the past two years in to account, Obama has already added $3.17 Trillion. If left unchecked with a hypothetical returning Democrat majority for the next 2 years, Obama’s contribution to the national debt over 4 years in office would be an estimated $6.34 Trillion and likely more.

Debt and corruption were the GOP’s undoing in 2006 and 2008. Now, the Democrats are facing 4 times the debt and double the corruption. The current Treasury Secretary is a known tax cheat. The former Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee is as well as evidenced by his 13 ethics violations and pending criminal indictment (because we all know there is an indictment in the works). Another Democrat member of Congress faces an ethics battle. Pelosi has failed to “drain the swamp” and seems to have encouraged her members to seek out ways to exploit the earmark process.

Nancy Pelosi’s most ethical and most transparent Congress in history is about to fall flat under the weight of its ethics violations and shady back-room deals. Remember what she said about the Death Care bill?

“We have to pass the bill so you can find out what’s in it.”

How about that transparency Nancy?

I won’t hold my breath waiting for her to answer.

Now Pelosi has another shell game in the works. As the school year is about to begin and the financially strapped states have less money to dole out for education, SanFran Nan and her band of miscreants are calling the House back into session in the middle of the August recess in order to pass “emergency” legislation totaling an additional $26 Billion in spending for teachers. Ask the question “why?” since nearly half of the American Robbery and Redistribution Act money is still unspent. After-all, wasn’t that supposed to fund police, firemen, and – umm, who else… that’s right – TEACHERS so they wouldn’t lose their jobs?

People this is nothing more than as cheap game of 3-card Monty. Chase the red queen but there is no queen on the table. It’s a ploy for votes and nothing more. The funds are already allocated to save teachers’ jobs if the Infestation wished to use it; but they don’t. They’d rather Pelosi do a little grand standing in order to buy some more votes and in the process increase the debt a little bit more in order to justify more tax increases in the future. You see if they use already appropriated funding to “save teaching jobs” it doesn’t make headlines. No headlines, no votes.

Before you go to vote on November 2nd remember a couple of very important items.

Obama promised that if the “stimulus” (aka the American Robbery and Redistribution Act) were passed unemployment wouldn’t go any higher than 8%. How’s that 9.5% unemployment feeling America? Or how about the estimated 17% – 24% underemployment for that matter?
Pelosi promised to drain the swamp and yet one Congressman has been sent to prison for taking bribes, and two more are under Ethics Committee investigations and expected to be expelled.
Democrats rode a wave of discontent over Republican deficits in 2006 and 2008 but the current budget deficit is 4 times higher.

And finally I want you to ask yourself a question…

Is your family better off today than you were in 2006?

OH.. before I go. I have a little misconception to clear up.

That surplus that all you Clintonian drones like to point to that Bush destroyed with his deficit spending… That was the brain child of a Republican. Rep. John Kasich of Ohio wrote the budget that created that surplus. Kasich is currently running for Governor of Ohio. And much to the dismay of Obama and Uncle Ted (Strickland), he’s leading in that race. And for the record… Uncle Ted rode that anti-GOP wave in 2006. Remember the quote at the top Uncle Ted.

Obama, House and Senate Dems, and November 2nd

July 17, 2010 Barack Hussein Obama, Communism, Democrat Corruption, Elections, Libtards on Parade, Lunatic Lefties, News, Obama Fascism, Opinion, Presidential Politics, U.S. House, US Senate, socialism Comments Off

Truth be told, it isn’t inconceivable that Republicans could pick up both the House and the Senate this November. If there is any justice in the world, they will. However, before we begin to prognosticate about how many seats in each house the GOP might pick up, let’s make sure we stay grounded.

“Never under-estimate the stupidity of people. Especially on election day.” – Kender MacGowan

As my best bud Kender says, we cannot underestimate the power the left has over voters. We cannot count on people’s unhappiness today to translate into opposition votes on election day. Especially, if Republicans screw up. In my poking around the net – something that I’ve stayed away from for far too long – I found an article written by Dr. Charles Krauthammer in which he warns Republicans not to underestimate Obama.

In his article he alludes to the idea that Obama’s agenda is a two-step plan to undo “Reaganism” replacing it with “Obamaism”.

Act One is over. The stimulus, Obamacare, financial reform have exhausted his first-term mandate. It will bear no more heavy lifting. And the Democrats will pay the price for ideological overreaching by losing one or both houses, whether de facto or de jure. The rest of the first term will be spent consolidating these gains (writing the regulations, for example) and preparing for Act Two.

The next burst of ideological energy — massive regulation of the energy economy, federalizing higher education and “comprehensive” immigration reform (i.e., amnesty) — will require a second mandate, meaning re-election in 2012.

What Dr. Krauthammer is saying makes sense when you factor in how Obama’s key legislation has been crafted. ObamaCare doesn’t take full effect until 2014. Why?

We may have underestimated this political novice. America has short-term memory loss when it comes to our Presidential election cycles. How else can you explain how Clinton served two terms? All the harmful legislation championed by Obama in the past 18 months has time to be forgotten over the next 2 1/2 years. If he sails into a second term and he can stymie a new Republican majority (worst case for him) enough to render it impotent like Bush did with the first two years of the Democrat majority, then it is possible to complete his final death plan for America.

Beginning the day after the 2012 election, if granted his wish Obama will begin his slam-dunk of capitalism followed by the end of Democracy as we know it. He is not only determined to go down in history as the first black President of the United States, I truly believe he would prefer to go down as the last democratically elected President. My evidence? Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals.

Alinsky states in his book that the end game is a Dictator led Communist society. As a student and teacher of Alinsky’s rules, Barry Obama knows this is the goal and sees himself as the completion of Alinsky’s dream.

I honestly believe everything has gone according to plan. What he hasn’t counted on to this point is the level of opposition within the electorate. This level of opposition MUST be maintained. Republicans – even if they prevail in large numbers this November – MUST, MUST, MUST keep Obama’s political short-comings in the minds of the electorate all the way up to the day they cast a vote for the next President. And I mean NEXT President because this guy can’t live in that house past 12 noon, January 20, 2013. NOT ONE MORE DAY.

Much to the dismay of House and Senate Dems, they did not know that many of them were expected to be handed their pink slips come November 2, 2010. People like Max Baucas and Lincoln Chafee were expected to be replaced by a Republican all along. They just didn’t know it.

What wasn’t planned was people like Barbara Boxer, Russ Feingold, and Harry Reid being in danger of losing their previously “secure” seats. But those seats ARE in danger. Reid’s ability to keep that seat is further in doubt by the hour but he keeps on championing that hard-left agenda.

There is an additional danger when the left loses Congress in November. in the month and a half left in the current Congress, the Democrats who lose in November will have no incentive to oppose Obama’s “lame duck strategy”. Pass all the most harmful legislation before going home on their full pensions. Cap and Tax, Amnesty, Card Check, and more kickback pork to labor unions.

Bottom line…

If Obama sees his chances of obtaining that second term slimmer in November than he does today, he’ll go for the prize before the current Congress exits. And barring a 2/3rds majority in both Houses, there isn’t thing 1 Republicans can do about it without shutting down the government – WHICH – may become necessary to break the President. But at what cost politically?

Finally, some predictions…

Robert Gibbs, David Axelrod, Rham Emanuel, and possibly Robert Gates will be gone before the end of the year. Gibbs probably before the midterms.
Hillary Clinton dumps her job by the end of 2011 and challenges Obama for the Democrat Nomination for President in 2012. If she does, she wins it. Why end of 2011? She’ll wait to see how badly Obama’s popularity tanks (and it will) due to the “lame duck strategy” and poise to strike at that vulnerability. At least if she’s smart – and we all know she is.
Republicans take a clear majority in the House in November. In the Senate Republicans secure between 49 and 52 seats. They’ll either fall short of a majority by 1 seat or they’ll take a majority by no more than 2.
If the economy continues to stagnate, Tim Geithner will be out in 2011. Eric Holder is already under a heat lamp due to his failure to prosecute crimes committed by minorities. I predict he’s out by tax day 2011. These resignations will be the result of House and Senate (should Republicans gain a majority) investigations of both.
Kagen gets confirmed by a slim majority but her nomination will be subjected to a “filibuster” (blocked cloture vote).
Should the GOP gain a slim majority in the Senate, Senate investigations into all of Obama’s Czars will begin in 2011 as they are operating as a shadow government as an intentional effort to circumvent the advice and consent of the US Senate. Result will be legislation banning such “special advisers” paid using taxpayer funding.

Let’s see how close I am. Shall we?

Lib Pollster Confirms – Obama IS a Socialist

July 10, 2010 Barack Hussein Obama, Democrat In-Fighting, Elections, News, Opinion, Polls, socialism Comments Off

A recent poll of likely voters conducted by Democracy Corps has some results that Democrats need to pay a little attention to. Democracy Corps is co-owned by former Clinton political adviser and Democratic Strategist James Carville.

In the poll, likely voters were asked…

“Now, I am going to read you a list of words and phrases which people use to describe political figures. For each word or phrase, please tell me whether it describes Barack Obama very well, well, not too well, or not well at all.”

For the words “too liberal”, 35% of respondents said that they described Obama “very well”, 21% responded “well”, 21% said “not too well”, and 17% said “not well at all.”

First off, I’d like to know what planet that last group is living on?

Consequently, 56% of registered voters believe that the Emperor is “too liberal”; but there’s more – and it gets even better!

For the word “socialist”, 33% of respondents say the word describes Obama “very well”, 22% “well”, 15% “not too well”, and 25% “not well at all”. In other words, 55% of respondents say the word socialist is a good description of Barack Hussein Obama. Then again, that’s no surprise either. The surprise is the source of the polling data.

I would expect a truly neutral and unbiased pollster to publish numbers such as these, but James Carville?!? – Note: the words neutral and unbiased leaves out KOS Poll, CBS, NBC, ABC, MSNoBodyCares, CNN, NYTimes, Washington Post, LA Times, The Atlanta Journal-Constipation, all the other dead trees AND Gallup.

Carville’s firm admits that Republicans hold a 6 percentage point lead over Democrats in the Congressional Generic ballot (48%-42%). Carville himself has been critical of the Chief Executive for a couple of months now. However, I don’t expect the drooling leftist has switched sides by any stretch of the imagination. Even so, his recent criticism of Obamaramadingdong is encouraging.

How bad is it when Democrats are polling a Democrat poorly? How bad is it when they begin to eat their own? It is my belief that the “experts” are in for a wide awakening come November 2nd and the Democrats are already making plans to deal with it.

A Drudge Report headline reads…

Dem Lame Duck Strategy: Union ‘card-check,’ cap and trade, and so much more…

Why would they need to devise a “lame duck strategy” if they didn’t plan on losing? And please take notice THE most unpopular legislation is on their agenda to push through. I wonder what kind of political trickery they mean to use to accomplish this goal?

Obama “The Jobs Killer” and Uncle Teddy – Ohio’s Recipe for Disaster

July 6, 2010 Barack Hussein Obama, Democrat Incompetence, Elections, Fiscal Irresponsibility, Fiscal Responsibility, News, Ohio Politics, Opinion, Stupidity, Taxes, The Economy Comments Off

Many of you know already that I refer to Barack Hussein Obama as “The Emperor”; however, I also have a nickname for the Governor of Ohio that is just as scathing. I call Ted Strickland “Uncle Ted or Uncle Teddy” in the same mold as “Uncle Ho” for Ho Chi Minh. I mention this only to put the title of this post into context.

Earlier today, I was reading an editorial written by Wayne Allyn Root that appeared in the Las Vegas Review-Journal in which the author ripped apart The Emperor as being “Obama “The Jobs Killer”. He said…

Obama is as hopeless, helpless, clueless and bankrupt of good ideas as the manager of the Chicago Cubs in late September. This “community organizer” knows as much about private-sector jobs as Pamela Anderson knows about nuclear physics.

It’s time to call Obama what he is: The Great Jobs Killer. With his massive spending and tax hikes — rewarding big government and big unions, while punishing taxpayers and business owners — Obama has killed jobs, he has killed motivation to create new jobs, he has killed the motivation to invest in new businesses, or expand old ones. With all this killing, Obama should be given the top spot on the FBI’s Most Wanted List.

Not a word of these passages do I disagree with for the record. However, if Obama deserves “the top spot on the FBI’s Most Wanted List” Uncle Teddy deserves a spot right next to him.

Since he assumed the post of Ohio’s Chief Executive, he has so severely mismanaged our state budget that libraries in this state are operating under reduced hours, mental hospitals have been closed, museums have had to find new sources of funding, and the state’s largest inland man-made lake is polluted with an unknown substance which has caused the formation of two types of algae that are expelling neuro-toxic gasses. On top of all of this malfeasance, the state of Ohio has been hemorrhaging jobs during Uncle Ted’s watch to a tune of 500,000 jobs that will NEVER return. NCR has left the state utilizing Obama’s Porkulus Package to relocate to another state, DHL is gone, and GM Moraine is closed taking with it many large and small support companies. Yet he has the bold-faced audacity to run for another term?!?

Since I have brought up the subject of the polluting of Grand Lake St. Marys, let me add that the local population has a few yet unproven theories about what may have been the root cause.

A few years ago when gasoline prices spiked near $5.00 per gallon, many in this country were touting ethanol as a potential source of clean-cheap fuel. Problem – the production of ethanol is not exactly clean.

During the distillation process, a bi-product mash is produced. Rather than refining that mash down, a local ethanol plant was distributing it to local farmers to spread on their fields. The idea was that it is made from corn so it should be safe for the soil. That may be, but it isn’t safe for ground water. Some of the fields which were treated with this substance are within a couple of dozen yards of Grand Lake St. Marys. Locals are speculating that it was this substance that probably leached into the lake which is causing the release of these neuro-toxins. Not to mention, the air quality around the lake is horrendous.

The State has issued a warning about the lake. No swimming, no fishing, and if you use the lake for sport, do not come in contact with the water. Wonderful! Makes me want to jump on a SeaDoo for an afternoon in the sun! NOT!

How about we return to reason? How about the people of the state deciding to not allow an inept political hack like Strickland to remain in charge? How about electing someone who has a plan to return our state to economic stability? How about electing someone who authored the budget that resulted in the federal budget surplus that Bill Clinton is so often credited with? That person is former United States Congressman John Kasich.

John has a plan to return Ohio to economic stability. Uncle Ted doesn’t. John has a plan to attract new business to Ohio. Uncle Ted doesn’t. John doesn’t see the solution to the state’s budget deficit in new and expanded taxes. Uncle Ted does.

So how about November 2nd being Uncle Ted’s notice to clean out his desk? Elect John Kasich because our state needs someone with a plan.

[NOTE] The ethanol plant cited in this post was closed in 2008 due to economic insolvency. Define that as ethanol being economically nonviable.
