This will not only create jobs immediately, but will make our economy run better over the long haul,” Obama said on a public holiday two months before congressional polls which Democrats fear could bring heavy losses.

It’s a plan that says even in the aftermath of the worst recession in our lifetimes, America can still shape our own destiny.

Now that Obama is looking for more of your cash to ‘stimulate’ the economy let’s see how successful those previous stimulations really were.

Employment isn’t looking so good for the private sector but federal government employment is looking great. As a matter of fact, as a totally unqualified career counselor, I’d say living off of the government dole is the way to go. Apparently Obama’s vision of our ‘destiny’ is having everyone employed and supported by the federal government;  destroying as many private jobs as possible.

                          

Dude, check it out. That funny guy on PJTV has the 411 on a piece of paper that protects us from cranky old people. Some dudes in wigs wrote it with ink feathers, or something. It was like a really long time ago, but it’s, like, people totally forgot about it. Whoa, right?

                          

Set against the backdrop of today’s headline – 67% of Americans don’t approve of Obama’s economic policies, the film takes a provocative look at our deeply depressed economy using the words and actions of Presidents Reagan and Obama and shows the marked contrast between Reaganomics and Obamanomics. The film contrasts two views of the role that the federal government should play in our daily lives using the words and actions of Ronald Reagan and Barack Obama. Two versions of the American dream now stand in sharp contrast. One views the money you earned as yours and best allocated by you; the other believes that the elite in Washington know how to best allocate your wealth. One champions the traditional American dream, which has played out millions of times through generations of Americans, of improving one’s lot in life and even daring to dream and build big. The other holds that there is no end to the “good” the government can do by taking and spending other peoples’ money in an ever-burgeoning list of programs. The documentary film I Want Your Money exposes the high cost in lost freedom and in lost opportunity to support a Leviathan-like bureaucratic state.

                          

Just 4 months of Obamacare, Congress is working on repealing a portion of it. Some Republicans and Democrats are working on repealing a burdensome provision, “which would require businesses to file 1099 tax forms for all transactions with vendors that cumulatively total over $600.”  Why would some of the same politicians who voted for Obamacare want to repeal part of it? It’s a brilliant new political strategy. The way it works is this: Pass every law you can think of under one giant bill and create thousands of pages of new laws and regulations. Got an idea? Throw it in there. Let’s see if it sticks. Make sure to add and change minor provisions at the last moment (this distracts the masses and press of the real horror.) Pass the law using whatever political threat, arm-twisting, and favor  you can. Once the bill is passed, either a bored staff member reads the bill or most likely, hear directly from constituents about what parts of the bill actually do and they backpedal. The politician must then claim that they never supported that provision and now will try  to repeal small parts of the bill while claiming to be champions of the same people they just screwed.

Obama and Graham: Killing Afghans Softly

Obama say’s his Afghanistan war goals are “modest.”

“What we’re looking to do is difficult — very difficult — but it’s a fairly modest goal, which is: Don’t allow terrorists to operate from this region. Don’t allow them to create big training camps and to plan attacks against the U.S. homeland with impunity,” Obama said in an interview broadcast by CBS’ “Sunday Morning.”

Well, that certainly qualifies as change. Compare that with his statement a year ago:

…big goal that the president set in his big speech on March 27 outlining a new strategy referred to internally as “Af/Pak”: “to disrupt, dismantle and defeat Al Qaeda in Pakistan and Afghanistan and to prevent their return to either country in the future.”

Can you feel the change? Instead of defeating Al Qaeda we are not letting “terrorists” build “big” camps, and plan attacks against the “homeland” with “impunity.” Otherwise…no problem. In case you’re worried if Obama has a plan for this, this chart should settle any concerns. Look how easy it’s gonna be:

We’re gonna be over there awhile as Secretary of Defense Robert Gates said:

“I think we need to re-emphasize the message that we are not leaving Afghanistan in July of 2011. We are beginning a transition process and a thinning of our ranks,” Gates said, “and the pace will depend on the conditions on the ground.”

No one was more happy to hear that news than Lindsey Graham as he’s very worried about “unholy” alliances. The “Unholy Alliances” intend to defund the war that Lindsey Graham  thinks is very winnable…sometime this millennium . Apparently some unholy politicians want to end the 9 year war. Only holy people understand that you have to keep killing people until they do what you say. Think of it as tough love and since we are the U.S., we do it tougher than anyone else. We’re #1. We’re #1. When we do win though, it will be “monumental” dude. Stay tuned for my upcoming article about Afghanistan due out in 2021 titled “Afghanistan is still a mess and we need to leave.”

Palin Thinks Obama Should Get a Set of Balls

Since Palin’s google rankings have dropped over the last few weeks she’s decided to change all that by calling out Obama’s lack of  ”cojones” which by definition means: politically correct way to say balls.  The Post has a story about Palin bitch slapping Obama’s manhood. If Obama makes another appearance on Oprah, be very worried.

Former Alaska governor Sarah Palin said Sunday that Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer (R) has “the cojones” that President Obama“does not have” to take on illegal immigration.

The so-called “Bin Laden Hunter,” Gary Faulkner is more sane than America’s foreign policy.

                          

It’s time to stop obsessing over such trivial matters according to President Obama.

President Barack Obama said Sunday that there’s “a lot of obsession” about the withdrawal date for U.S. troops from Afghanistan.

That’s right America. It’s time to stop getting all “OCD” on when we bring our troops home. What’s the big hurry anyway? We’ve only been fighting this war against Al-Qaeda, Taliban, terrorism…yes that’s it, for only 9 years. As our war leader has said,

“You’ll often hear, why are we in Afghanistan when the terrorists are in Pakistan?” Obama said.

He contended America would be less secure if al-Qaida still could be housed in Afghanistan, and contended there remains “a vital national interest that Afghanistan not be used as a base to launch terrorist attacks.”

So there you have it. We actually can never leave Afghanistan….ever. We must have thousands of troops occupying their country indefinitely just in case an Al-Qaeda operative tries to re-enter the U.S. territory of Afghanistan.

How can America afford to occupy Afghanistan indefinitely? By asking China to re-value their currency of course. According to Obama and his crack team of economists,

“A strong and durable recovery also requires countries not having an undue advantage,” he said. “As I told (Chinese) President Hu Jintao yesterday, the United States welcomes China’s decision to allow its currency to appreciate in response to market forces. We will be watching very closely in the months ahead.”

Now if China does increase the value of it’s currency that will increase the costs of China’s imported goods that millions of Americans purchase daily. I’m not quite clear how that helps America but I’m certain that Obama’s economic team has figured that all out. Perhaps, they are just hoping that China will be able to buy even more of America’s debt.

So as Obama has said, it’s time to stop asking so many questions and just trust our overlords of war and finance. Leave the obsessions to your glorious government and don’t worry, Obama is looking out for you. Just maybe not in the way you thought he would when he campaigned.

                          

southernavenger — June 10, 2010 — Before they can be taken serious in their critique of government spending, Tea Partiers, Republicans and conservatives in general must finally address America’s costly foreign policy.

Obama signs press freedom act, won’t answer any questions

Obama signed the Freedom of Press Act and essentially told reporters that they were free to ask questions but he wasn’t going to answer them. Rumors and unreliable sources say that Obamas next Act may be to sign a Freedom of Speech Act where he won’t permit any questions at all as that would infringe on his right to be free of speech. Questions to the White House Press were answered with a hearty laugh and a sharp dismissal.

Ohio Senate Fights Obesity By Removing Exercise

In a last ditch effort to fight obesity the Ohio Senate has decided to try reverse psychology on the children’s uncooperative fat cells by removing the exercise requirement from the obesity bill. The idea is that the fat cells won’t know what to do and just decide to leave.

Who Votes For Sitting On Our Asses?

At the urging of school groups, the Ohio Senate has removed a provision from a childhood obesity bill that would require students to get at least 30 minutes of exercise per day while in school.

“These kids need to spend less time exercising and more time getting indoctri….err…educated, yes, educated is what I meant” said an unnamed school teacher anxiously. The teacher, prefers to remain anonymous due to fear of reprisal from the Richard Simmons Fan Club.

Sarah Palin – Just Another Charismatic Girl With a Teleprompter

Just Another Charismatic Girl

Sarah Palin at an NRA convention in Charlotte on May 14, 2010, spoke with two teleprompters in view.

After sneeringly referring to President Obama as “a charismatic guy with a teleprompter” in February, Sarah Palin apparently required two of the prompting devices when she delivered the keynote address to the National Rifle Association convention in Charlotte yesterday.

Undisclosed sources indicate that Sarah Palin has been amazed at how many more words can be fit on a teleprompter screen as opposed to her hand and she doesn’t have to wash the ink off of afterwards.

Woody Allen Wishes For Obama Dictatorship

It's Good To Be a Dictator

Gateway Pundit reported and translated a Woody Allen interview in which he said, “…it would be good…if he could be a dictator for a few years because he could do a lot of good things quickly.” For instance, Obama could repeal any law barring Fathers from marrying their children thus allowing other morally deficient directors to pursue their dreams of paternal incest.

Philadelphia Police, long known for their respect of civil rights had one of it’s officers shot.

A cop had been shot; a manhunt was on. The block was cordoned off with yellow tape. Cops and SWAT teams fanned the streets. K-9 units scoured through brush. Some businesses were forced to close for five hours.

Mark Knockoffler sings the ObamaCare blues with his band Dem Strait. Turn the collar up on your iZod and rock out like it’s 1985.

                          

Let me give you a simple example. You’ll often hear folks in the “tea party” crowd protest the impending government takeover of health care. Among the reasons for being against socialized medicine, the inconsistent tea partier will invoke morality.

A popular line of thinking goes like this: “I should not be forced to buy politically controlled health insurance simply because I’m alive and breathing.” Another goes this way, “How come Nancy Pelosi is allowed to point a gun at me and force me to buy a product from her, but I can’t point a gun in my neighbor’s face and force him to buy a product from me?”

Truth be told, both arguments are valid. And if made from someone who was actually consistent, they’d have merit. However, coming from the mouths of limited government (a.k.a. central planning and taxation only for things they like) tea party people, it’s rubbish. If I were an intelligent leftist, I would easily point out the inconsistency in a conversation that would go like this:

Tea Partier (TP): Obama care is immoral because Nancy Pelosi and friends are forcing us to buy politically controlled health insurance just because we’re alive.

Intelligent Leftist (IL): You believe it is immoral for Congress to pass a law forcing every American to buy whatever Congress considers to be health insurance? I don’t understand.

TP: Yeah. How come the stupid liberals in Congress are allowed to stick guns in our faces and force us to buy a product from them when I can’t stick a gun in my neighbor’s face and force him to buy a product from me? Where do they get off with this type of power? It is SOOO unconstitutional!! And besides, I’m a man. I shouldn’t be forced to pay for a woman’s c-section or birth control! And she shouldn’t be forced to pay for my Extenze! It’s unfair!

IL: No, it is absolutely fair! You are better off if you buy health insurance. Why shouldn’t they be allowed to force that on you? Besides, there are plenty of things that you are forced to purchase under threat of jail that you tea partiers don’t seem to mind.

TP: No way! We don’t believe in that type of governmental power… it’s UNCONSTITUTIONAL!!!

IL: What’s the difference between you being forced to purchase health insurance for your own good and you being forced to purchase roads and road repair for your own good? You don’t seem to mind that Governor Bill Ritter has what you call a gun to your head, forcing you to buy road construction from him. You also don’t seem to mind that the local police chief forces you to buy his services. How do you explain that?

TP: Well, that’s all okay. We don’t mind paying for those vital services, we need those things.

IL: So you don’t mind being forced to buy things against your will, as long as they are services you approve of. That’s convenient. I happen to approve of forcing everyone to buy health care. Surely you wouldn’t also reject forcing everyone in a school district to buy the services of their local schools would you?

TP: Well, that’s different! Kids need to be educated!

IL: I don’t see how that’s any different than health care. Roads, police, fire, schools, health care and the like are all things that benefit everyone. We are all better off if we are forced to buy them. You can’t be a freeloader!

TP: But….. but….

IL: It’s pretty obvious that you would like to just pick and choose what you are paying for. You can’t have it both ways, it doesn’t work like that.

….This is when a consistent person steps in and says, “Yes, we all would prefer to pay only for those goods and services we found worthy of our hard earned money. And no that’s not possible with government. But I’ll give you a hint as to what institution allows for everyone to purchase only what they want, and to never be stolen from, no matter the pretense….”

Cuban revolutionary leader Fidel Castro on Thursday declared passage of American health care reform “a miracle” and a major victory for Obama’s presidency, but couldn’t help chide the United States for taking so long to enact what communist Cuba achieved decades ago.

“We consider health reform to have been an important battle and a success of his (Obama’s) government,” Castro wrote in an essay published in state media, adding that it would strengthen the president’s hand against lobbyists and “mercenaries.”

Castro then proceeded to offer some constructive criticism to Obama.

But the Cuban leader also used the lengthy piece to criticize the American president for his lack of leadership on climate change and immigration reform, and for his decision to send more troops to Afghanistan, among many other things.

Relax Fidel. Obama and the Democrats have legislation in the works to address climate change, and immigration that will make you proud. They are way ahead of you on that. They may even try to adopt some of Cuba’s immigration policies such as ruining the economy so badly that no one wants to come. This may seem a bit extreme but when you don’t have the economic competence to allow the free market to work you get desperate and we all know competence in pretty scarce in Congress. Hey, at least everyone will be equal…equally poor anyway. The’ve proven they have the tools and know how to destroy wealth and capital at historic levels so don’t underestimate them Fidel.

Oh and before you go back to your outstanding medical care Fidel, check in on your brother, Raul. Apparently things aren’t quite so rosy.

The government has warned that some of those benefits are no longer sustainable given Cuba’s ever-struggling economy, though it has so far not made major changes.

In recent speeches, Raul Castro has singled out medicine as an area where the government needs to be spending less, but he has not elaborated.

Rumors abound that involuntary euthanasia above 70 years of age is being considered to cut costs. Sorry Fidel. Thanks for the endorsement anyway.

                          

Friedrich Hayek remains one of the most influential economists and philosophers of our time. His opinions on individual liberty, free markets, and centralized planning have not only influenced millions during his lifetime, but have helped to inspire a new, rising generation of leaders.

F.A. Hayek is more relevant now than ever before!

If you aren’t familiar with F.A. Hayek, you should begin by reading “The Road to Serfdom,” a critique of socialism and centralized planning in general.

                          

Is the ad as FactCheck.org claims misleading? Technically, H.R. 4173 does give the Federal Reserve the ability to spend up to 4 trillion dollars as Bloomberg columnist David Reilly notes:

It authorizes Federal Reserve banks to provide as much as $4 trillion in emergency funding the next time Wall Street crashes. So much for “no-more-bailouts” talk. That is more than twice what the Fed pumped into markets this time around. The size of the fund makes the bribes in the Senate’s health-care bill look minuscule.

What FactCheck.org contends is that this is just a change to existing powers the Federal Reserve already has so there should be no worries. Granted, the Federal Reserve by virtue of rule 13 (3) of the Federal Reserve Act does have such powers:

“In unusual and exigent circumstances, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, by the affirmative vote of not less than five members, may …,” and then there’s a lot of technical language which essentially means that the Federal Reserve can lend money to “any individual, partnership, or corporation,” as long as certain requirements are met.

Not only have they had this power but the Fed has a history of using the power according to the Federal Reserve Branch of Minneapolis that the media on a whole as disregarded.

What H.R. 4173 does is add the amount of 4 trillion to the section 13(3). Those if favor would say this just gives a cap to the Federal Reserve. Others would say this gives the Federal Reserve a green light to go ahead and spend 4 trillion dollars; Congress just said it was okay. By adding the 4 trillion dollar amount to the bill, it is in effect, a “credit limit” to the Federal Reserves ever growing appetite for more fiat currency. This is akin a mother giving the kid the credit card prior to her trip to the mall asking the young shopper to spend a little bit but don’t max it out. What will happen? The child (Federal Reserve) will come back home filled with shopping bags proclaiming that she (Federal Reserve) didn’t want to spend that much money but the sales (banks) were too good (to big) to pass up (fail).  The bailouts aren’t over and H.R. 4173 proves just that.

The ad was paid for by the Committee for Truth in Politics which is a group out of North Carolina formed as a non-profit in September of 2008. The only board member listed is a William W. Peaslee who appears to by an attorney in Cary, N.C. The Committee for Truth in Politics has no web site, phone number, or any other information other than the original incorporation submission..essentially they are dark.

The Committe is represented by a James Bopp who has quite a history already with the Committee for Truth in Politics and other organizations with their previous anti-Obama ads.

Is this ad correct? Technically, then Senator Obama did vote for this,  but he retracted his vote immediately afterward. It did appear to be a mistake as Politico reported:

The state Senate floor transcript from the day, March 11th, 1999, includes this from Obama:  “For purpose of correction. I pressed the wrong button on that. I wanted to vote Yes.”

Mr. James Bopp also filed a suit against the FEC in October of 2008, in regards to filing a report…at all:

“We believe that the U.S. Constitution protects them from having to file that report,” says Bopp. “The problem is having to file a report at all. To be regulated at all. To be accountable to the government at all.”

On Tuesday, January 26, 2010 James Bopp issued a press release via the James Madison Center for Free Speach:

The James Madison Center for Free Speech is asking the Federal Election Commission to revise its regulations in light of the Jan. 21 landmark Supreme Court decision.

The decision, Citizens United v. FEC, recognizes that federal law banning particular corporate and union spending for political speech is unconstitutional.

The James Madison Center’s rulemaking petition, filed today, asks the FEC to state that it will not enforce the unconstitutional bans against any independent spending for political speech, including independent expenditures and electioneering communications.  The petition also asks the FEC to:

• Repeal FEC regulations insofar as they implement the bans Citizens United struck down.
• Acknowledge that the unconstitutional law no longer bans  corporations, unions, or membership organizations from engaging in independent spending for political speech beyond people such as union members or corporate board members, stockholders, executive personnel, or administrative personnel.
• Repeal the FEC regulations recognizing exceptions to the bans on (1) corporate independent expenditures and (2) corporate and union electioneering communications.  The exceptions are no longer necessary, because the bans themselves are unconstitutional.

“This is an election year.  Speakers will want to exercise the First Amendment rights to political speech Citizens United recognizes, so the FEC should adopt these regulations quickly, ” said James Bopp, Jr., general counsel for the James Madison Center.

Agree or disagree about the ad, the Committee for Truth and Politics is pushing the FEC and the courts in the proper direction towards free speech and NPR isn’t happy about it at all and seemingly worried about the secret money. In their words:

Bopp may be the nation’s most experienced lawyer in challenging campaign finance laws. For 30 years, he’s been general counsel to the National Right To Life Committee, which has spearheaded opposition to restrictions on political money. He’s also a member of the Republican National Committee and counsel to Focus on the Family and the Indiana Republican Party.

I would expect to see even more ads of this nature in the near future. While some fear corporations and groups being able to purchase these kind of ads, I would argue that aware citizens can judge on their own an ad’s legitimacy and assess the bias of the ad without the government regulating free speech to “protect” us from too much information.
