President Obama — Grubering Americans

We’ve seen scandal after scandal from Obama and his cronies.  NSA spying on Americans.  IRS stunting the development of Conservative non-profit organizations.  Lois Lerner responsible for harassing Conservatives and then, hiding behind the Fifth Amendment.  The IRS pretending to research Lois Lerner’s email accounts and finally, admitting they had not.  Our Ambassador and the brave security officers being killed in Benghazi and Obama claiming it was due to a video.  The Fast and Furious gun running debacle which killed at least one American.  Attorney General Holder refusing to provide Congress with supoened information.  The Obama administration repeatedly raising the specter of racism, even when none was warranted. And, on and on!

In fact, there are so many lies, subterfuges, obfuscations, and misdirections from our current President  that most Americans can’t even remember what yesterday’s scandal was!

There is no excuse, except the media’s complicity in hiding the Truth, for Obama to have gotten away with even one of the scandals.  All scandals are horrific and should be condemned.  However, knowing that Obama and his staff deliberately lied to Americans  about  Obama-Scare  because they knew it would not pass otherwise is criminal.  If Professor Gruber had not been caught  on video describing all these criminal acts, perhaps Obama would have gotten away with it.  After all, the media can be counted on to support Obama and to run interference for him against anyone who would question his acts and decisions.

Now we have a whistleblower in Gruber, even though he wishes otherwise.  Now we have Gruber, who was at the center of the formation of Obama-Scare, and who has admitted to deliberately lying to the American voter.  Now, we have video which provides an inner window into the machinations of a corrupt administration and corrupt Democrats in both the Senate and House.

And, what happened when the Truth about Obama-Scare and its corrupt formation was revealed?  What happened when one liar, Gruber, was outed by his own words?  Suddenly, no one in Washington knows Professor Gruber!  It is almost humorous to watch Obama and all his minions like Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi squirm as they try to separate themselves from Gruber.  Unfortunately for them, there is video of them bragging Gruber and his policies up. When they needed his professional “expertise”,   Gruber was the economic guru they trotted out to support their views.  Now, when the lies are obvious, Gruber is their least favorite economist…….well, he would be IF THEY KNEW WHO HE WAS.  Ha ha.

Still, President Obama pushes on with his agenda.  He ignores all the scandals to foist yet another tragedy upon our country.  And, that tragedy is to go around Congress and implement his own version of immigration.

Saying that the system is broken and must be fixed is NOT  enough to warrant his rewriting the immigration laws.

Saying that Congress has had enough time to fix the law and has not does NOT justify his rewriting the immigration laws.

Saying that he has the right to implement executive orders is NOT Constitutional.

As a professed Constitutional scholar, he should know that Congress writes the laws.  His job is to accept or  veto those laws.  And, if Congress overrides his veto, and he still disagrees, then the Courts are to judge the merits of the law.

President Obama was RIGHT when he repeatedly claimed that, as President, he did NOT have the right to use Executive powers to change the immigration laws.

President Obama is WRONG when he now maintains that he has the ability to change those same immigration laws.

I wonder how Obama intends to deceive Americans about this about face in his thinking?  I’m sure he’ll find a way to lie his way out of any complications.  After all, when he needed someone to find a way “around” the American people on Obama-Scare, he found Gruber.

He had no problem lying to us before.  Why should he worry about Grubering  us once again?

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly — President Obama…..politicizing America

The GOOD: Obamacare Website Closed for Repairs This Weekend.

The BAD:  Obama’s capricious closures which hurt:

Veterans, our pride and joy:

…government’s ham-fisted attempts to close the DC WWII Memorial, an open-air public monument that is normally accessible 24 hours a day. By accessible I mean, you walk up to it. When you have finished reflecting, you then walk away from it.**

Apparently, according to an anonymous Park Service ranger, “We’ve been told to make life as difficult for people as we can. It’s disgusting.”**

Fishermen:  Just before the weekend, the National Park Service informed charter boat captains in Florida that the Florida Bay was “closed” due to the shutdown.  Until government funding is restored, the fishing boats are prohibited from taking anglers into 1,100 square miles of open ocean.  Fishing is also prohibited at Biscayne National Park during the shutdown.**

The UGLY:

Frightening Taxpayers, the markets and the world:  Obama’s reckless default fear-mongering

Never before has an American president threatened and risked the U.S. economy and financial markets the way Barack Obama has in recent days. For his own narrow political ends, Obama and his minions have actually accused the Republican party of deliberately provoking a Treasury debt default because they don’t agree with the Obama position on the continuing budget resolution and the debt ceiling.**

These are only a few of the good, the bad and the ugly……….and, it doesn’t look like it’s getting better with President Obama, Harry Reid and Pelosi now joined by Schumer in a contest to see who can call the Republicans the worst, most egregious, insulting names.

The GOOD,  the BAD, and the UGLY………just another name for the political machinations of President Obama and Democrats.

Madame Speaker….or, not!

Democrats have rationalized their defeat in the last election in many ways, including President Obama saying that it was, essentially, a result of the administration not explaining well enough AND, at one point, asserting that the “public” just didn’t get it!

I think the American voter “got it” and “gave it back” to the Democrats!  Here’s your hat and coat….what’s your hurry?  As far as I’m concerned, the incumbent Democrats can’t leave soon enough.  And, apparently, those who lost feel it’s time for good old Nancy Pelosi to leave, too.

I couldn’t agree more!

Undemocratic Democrats!

Although Americans are adamantly AGAINST the current health legislation, Democrats are determined to ram it through by hook or by crook!

Although the bill is not even in its final, written version, Democrats want to vote on it.  Although the American public is disgusted with Democrats’ wheelings and dealings, President Obama is trying to intimidate dissenters into voting for it.   Although representatives were supposed to represent the American public’s wishes and best interests, Democrats continue spreading lies about how the legislation would work and smearing those who disagree and completely disregarding the protestations of a majority of Americans.  It is such a bad piece of legislation that Democrats are scurrying for ways to avoid voting on the actual bill, yet passing it on to the president.  This has been Chicago style politics from the beginning and it looks as though it will be dirty, double-dealing, criminal, and unconstitutional,  to the end.

Democrats had better reconsider.

Are they Americans first, or Democrats first?

If they’re Americans first, then they must follow the people’s wishes, i.e., vote AGAINST  THE HEALTH LEGISLATION THAT PELOSI, REID, AND PRESIDENT OBAMA ARE PUSHING.

If they’re Democrats first, then, like sheep, they will do as Pelosi  and Obama want them to do, even if they must subvert our Constitution.

A “no” vote will be difficult, but would prove that our Representatives truly are representative of the American public.  A “yes” vote will confirm that dirty politics with all its sweetheart deals and closed door arm twisting is the new motif of the Democrats’ party.  If the legislation passes, Democrats will be labeled as undemocratic….a title they will deserve!

So, are Democrats Americans first or Democrats first?  We’ll know the answer soon.

Blame Bush

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/03/16/pelosi-plan-pass-health-care-traditional-vote-riles-critics/

I’m blaming Bush for his partisanship policies and his unwillingness to reach across to LIEberals. This is so ridiculous I’m at a loss for words. Imagine the outrage if this was flipped and this was the Republicans in congress trying to pass this w/out a vote.

– Mr. Knowledge

The epitome of arrogance….

So, now Pelosia is using the old Clinton dodge of “what is the meaning of ‘is’ ?”.  Remember when he hung his defense upon “the meaning of ‘is’?” .   His obfuscation of his testimony was only the beginning for Democrats.  Now, Pelosi is reaching out to redefine bi-partisanship for her own, political advancement….and, that of President Obama.

So, with the “new” definition of bi-partisanship,  Democrats claim they do not need Republican votes to make the reconciliation be bi-partisan.  After all, Pelosi claims that conservatives had their chance……….to talk!  Of course, Democrats didn’t accept anything that the conservatives were talking about, but, hey, they had “their chance”.  Thus, the bill becomes bi-partisan without the need for anything except Democrats’ votes.

Pelosi: GOP has had its day; confident Dems can come together

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Sunday that Republicans have left their mark on the healthcare bill and should accept that the bill will go forward.

“They’ve had plenty of opportunity to make their voices heard,” she said on CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday morning. “Bipartisanship is a two-way street. A bill can be bipartisan without bipartisan votes. Republicans have left their imprint.”

Pelosi is probably the most arrogant member of Congress.  She calls tea-baggers, Americans who happen to disagree with her, “astroturf”.  She tells her fellow Democrats that they should put their re-election aside and vote for this bill.  (What would happen if HER job were at stake?)  And, now, she is busy creating new definitions for words that don’t suit her!

This is why Congress’ approval is down to about 10%!  This is why American citizens, not only tea-baggers, are angry and demanding to be heard. This is Congress at its worst –the epitome of arrogance.

Too Young to Die

How often have you heard that comment?  Usually, it is when someone young dies.  And, while young is a relative term, most of us would agree that children who die, a teenager who dies, or even those in their 20s to 50s who die, are  “too young to die”.

So, why is it acceptable that babies in the womb should be aborted or killed?  Aren’t they, by definition, absolutely TOO YOUNG TO DIE?  How can anyone mercilessly scrape a living, human being out of their temporary home, knowing the pain and suffering that the little one is undergoing? Unfortunately, there are a LOT of people who can do that.

And, now,  add Speaker Pelosi to that list because she feels she has the right to FORCE me, and others, to pay for a procedure so horrific that it makes me sick.  She has  slipped an abortion clause into her health legislation which would demand everyone pay an insurance premium that goes for  abortions.  Even though it is against my religion and my very deepest personal philosophies, it would be obligatory for me to pay this!  It is unbelievable that this should happen in America.

Are we going to let the next generation die before they are even born?  Who decides when it is time to die?  What about us in the older generation.  Are we too old to live?  If we want to live to a ripe old age, shouldn’t babies be given the same choice?  That will not happen if Pelosi’s amendment is ratified.

Who is “too young to die” ????

David Letterman –Double Standard

Dave Letterman should be prosecuted for sexual harassment of a subordinate;  but, like former President Clinton, no one will ever do so.  Those who argue that the women were old enough to “know better” are missing the point.  Sexual harassment of a subordinate is a criminal offense, not just something to laugh about.

But, to expect the left to ever admit that one of “theirs” is wrong is about as likely as Amadinejab becoming Jewish.

Oh, the double standard is part and parcel of the Left’s philosophy.  Did you hear Whoopi Goldberg’s DEFENSE of Polanski who raped a 13 year old, admitted to it, then fled the country to avoid prosecution?

Did you hear the censure of Joe Wilson for his calling President Obama’s statement a lie?  What happened to the Democrat from Florida who claimed Republicans only wanted sick people to die, and quickly?  Rather than reprimand HIM,  Pelosi was very supportive of him!!!

So, expect to see Democrats rallying around Letterman.  After all, he is one of those who mock anything conservative and moral.  No one will prosecute him for his sexual harassment.  He is one of  the party in power and, as such, is beyond prosecution.   But, the David Letterman fiasco demonstrates again that the Democrats are the worst of the worst when it comes to having any moral standard, unless it is the double standard!

Which statement is she standing by?

Pelosi today said that she “stands by her previous statements.”

Does that mean the statement where she denied ever hearing about interrogation techniques?

Or, is it the statement where she acknowledged that she “might” have heard about their potential use, but did not realize the techniques were ACTUALLY in use?

Or, is it the time when she accussed the CIA of lying to her and Congress?

Or, how about when she said she supported the CIA, but was referring to the previous administration when she mentioned that she and Congress had been misled?

It’s really difficult to figure out which statement she is standing by.  That’s the trouble with lying.  My father-in-law used to always recommend telling the truth because it was the easiest to remember.  Apparently, Pelosi would prefer to lie in the hopes that the media won’t hold her to a standard of truth.  Well, she is right.  The media is letting her off.  But, for the rest of us…..which statement is she standing by?
