Obama Is A Socialist

SOCIALIST

 

Who says things like this?  Marxist do!

“And when you’re President, as oppose to the head of a private equity firm, and your job is not simply to maximize profits. Your job is to figure out how everybody in the country has a fair shot.”

REPORTER: Yes, thank you, Mr. President. Yesterday, your friend and ally, Corey Booker, said in an ad that your campaign released was nauseating. And it alleged that Romney at Bain Capital was “responsible for job losses at a Kansas City steel mill.” Is that your view that Romney is personally responsible for those job losses? Will comments from Booker and your former auto czar, Steve Ratner, if criticize some of these advertisements call on you to pull back a little bit? And generally, three part Mr. President, could you give us your sense of what private equity’s role is in stemming job losses as they seek a return of investment for their investors? Thank you.

President Obama: Well, first of all, I think Corey Booker is an outstanding Mayor. He’s doing great work in Newark and obviously helping to turn that city around. And I think its important to recognize that this issue is not a “distraction.” This is part of the debate that we’re going to be having in this election campaign about how do we create an economy where everybody, from top to bottom, folks on Wall Street and folks on Main street have a shot at success. And if they’re working hard and they’re acting responsibly, that they’re able to live out the American dream.

Now, I think my view of private equity is that it is set up to maximize profit. And that’s a healthy part of the free market. That’s part of the role of a lot of business people. That’s not unique to private equity. And as I think my representatives have said repeatedly and I will say today, I think there are folks who do good work in that area. And there are times where they identify the capacity for the economy to bring new jobs or new industries.

But understand that their priority is to maximize profits. And that’s not always going to be good for communities or businesses or workers. And the reason why this is relevant to the campaign is because my opponent, Governor Romney, his main calling card for why he thinks he should be president is his business experience. He’s not going out there touting his experience in Massachusetts. He’s saying I’m a business guy and I know how to fix it. And this is his business.

And when you’re President, as oppose to the head of a private equity firm, and your job is not simply to maximize profits. Your job is to figure out how everybody in the country has a fair shot. Your job is to think about those workers who get laid off and how do we pay for their retraining? Your job is to think about how those communities can start creating new clusters so they can start attracting new businesses. Your job as President is to think about how do we set up an equitable tax system so that everybody is paying their fair share that allows us to invest in science and technology and infrastructure. All of which is going to help us grow.

If your main argument for how to grow the economy is I knew how to make a lot of money for investors, then you’re missing what this job is about. It doesn’t mean you weren’t good at private equity. But that’s not what my job is as President. My job is to take into account everybody, not just some. My job is to make sure that the country is growing not just now, but 10 years from now and 20 years from now.

And so, to repeat, this is not a distraction. This is what this campaign is going to be about. Is what is a strategy for us to move this country forward in a way where everybody can succeed. And that means I’ve got to think about those workers in that video just as much as I’m thinking about folks who’ve been much more successful.

What I would say is that Mr. Romney is responsible for the proposals that he’s putting forward for how he’s going to fix the economy. And if the main basis for him suggesting he can do a better job is his track record as the head of a private equity firm then both the upsides and the downsides are worth examining.

Private equity firms use private capital, not taxpayer’s monies.  Obama has been gambling and losing taxpayers monies on Green Technologies.  Trillions of dollars wasted on unproven technologies that should have been left to private enterprise.  When JP Morgen Chase lost 2 billion in investments, it did so using private capital, not taxpayer monies.  Whenever you invest in equities, it clearly states that these investments are not protected and can lose their value.  Meaning you could lose your investment.  The government should not be in the business of using taxpayers monies and invest it in risky, unproven investments.  That is exactly what the Obama regime did!  They stole your money and wasted it in failed investments.

For JP Morgan a 2 billion loss is just a drop in the private equity bucket.  Compare that to the fact that JP Morgan Chase reported a full-year 2010 total revenue of $115.5B and a net income of $17.4 billion, losing 2 billion dollars is chump change.  But the bottom line is it was private money that was lost, not public money.  When you invest your money in companies, you do so at your own risk.  When the government takes your tax dollars and invests them risky Green Technologies like Solyndra and loses billions of dollars, you don’t get a choice.  The government spent and lost your money and didn’t give you the choice to opt out!

Unscrupulous liberal investors donated to the Obama 2008 campaign with promises to subsidize their companies with taxpayer monies.  After the government gave those billions of our taxpayer monies away, those companies went bankrupt, and those crooked investors made millions.  They stole our money.  Obama stole our money.  Obama complains that everyone should get a “fair shot“, what’s fair about billions of taxpayer’s monies being sent to China?

But examine that statement: “And when you’re President, as oppose to the head of a private equity firm, and your job is not simply to maximize profits. Your job is to figure out how everybody in the country has a fair shot.

This is pure socialism speak.  This is attacking capitalism.  Obama has already said capitalism doesn’t work.  So how has this country become the wealthiest in the world?  It is because of capitalism.  So what Obama is saying is that anyone that becomes successful needs to share their wealth with everyone else that didn’t work for it.  He’s saying you don’t deserve your success, so you must share it with others.  That’s your “fair shot“!

Ask yourself this, do you want another 4 more years of a clown President?

The Progressive Paradox

Why do progressives politicians lie and get away with it?  When a conservative politician gets caught lying all hell breaks loose in the media.  The condemnation stories and commentary by the liberal media goes on endlessly.  However, when a socialist progressive, a democrat, gets caught lying, it’s almost accepted as standard operating procedure.

Take for example, Bill Clinton’s famous “I did not have sexual relations with that woman” lie.  It was later revealed that he did have sexual relations in the oval office with Monica Lewinsky.  Of course, Clinton was later impeached, but that was just a slap on the wrist for the playboy of politics.  With a lengthy history of sexual improprieties and creepiness, there are still liberal women that gush over him like some kind of rock star.

 

 

 

Remember Barney Frank who boldly stated there was nothing wrong with the housing market just before it collapsed.  The same Barney Franks that didn’t know his same sex partner was running a drug and prostitute ring from his house.  It’s examples like this that neither gets investigated nor are they prosecuted.  Gross incompetence, immorality and criminal behavior seems to be an accepted practice within the progressive paradox.

 

 

 

Then there is the curious case of Elizabeth Warren who for years passed herself off a Native American Indian, Fauxcahontas.  When it was later revealed that she may have committed “academic fraud” by describing herself as a minority just so she could get special status at universities, she claimed her high cheekbones made her look like a Native Indian.

A 1997 Fordham Law Review article described Democratic Senate hopeful Elizabeth Warren as Harvard Law School’s “first woman of color,” saying in footnotes that the information was based on a 1996 telephone interview with a Harvard spokesman.

So the prestigious Harvard Law School thinks a lily white woman a person of color?!  After a genealogist looked into her family history, it was revealed that her great-great-great grandfather was part of the militia that rounded up Native American Indians known as the Trail of Tears.  She has no Native American Indian in her linage at all!  She lied!  There’s a good chance she will lose the Senate election in Massachusetts to Scott Brown, but what would someone openly lie and think they wouldn’t get caught?

Makes you wonder about the value of elitist universities with a propensity to accept minority status of individuals that are not minorities.  But why should there be any special status for anyone?  Shouldn’t people be judged by their accomplishment?  Remember Derrick Bell, the father of Critical Race Theory?  Remember when a young Obama in 1991 praised the former Harvard Law professor for his thesis which is outright racism?  If you’ve ever wondered what was wrong with our education and legal system, look no further than the progressives that support racism and inequality.  Under the guise of victimhood, these radical racist communists have subverted the educational and legal system into a joke of justice.

There are dozens of stories like this, Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal, another socialist progressive democrat, lied about his military record by saying he served in Viet Nam, when he never served in Viet Nam.  He later halfheartedly apologized for his “exaggeration” and defiantly said, “But I will not allow anyone to take a few misplaced words and impugn my record of service to our country.”  You lied!  Blumenthal went on to win the Connecticut Senate seat.  He was rewarded, for lying.

 

 

The double standard is hardly limited to elected public officials; there are other progressives that apply this double standard to those with impeccable standards beyond reproach.  However, there are those progressives in their lust for hatred of anything conservative will impugn good people, just because they are conservatives.  I read an article from a blog that was extremely disturbing.

I can only describe this blog as an example of seething progressive hatred towards anyone conservative, in particular of conservative woman.  In what I would classify as purely misogynistic and vile hate speech; this author weaves a hateful vitriol of people of faith.  Apparently in an effort to sell his novel of religious hate, this author compares today’s media and political conservatives as fanatical terrorist.  This is the religion of progressives; vilify people of faith as extremists.  Call them vulgar names; compare them to the religious bigotry of a history long since past.  Reading this person post is like watching Pink Floyd’s the Wall where the central character progressively goes mad dealing with his own loneliness and self-loathing envy of the world around him.  Plus he writes like a teenager scrawling dirty messages on the bathroom wall.  Simply pathetic!

These are the same progressives that make claims so outrageous, you wonder if they think that you are that gullible and stupid to believe their crap.  Progressives are so envious of conservatives that they will deliberately attack the family and children of conservatives.  We’ve all heard about Bill Maher and his attacks against Gov. Sarah Palin’s children.  We’ve heard Obama’s operatives make disparaging remarks against Mitt Romney’s wife.  We’ve listened to Nancy Pelosi, a Socialist Progressive and a Catholic; state that her faith compels her to support same-sex marriage.  I was born and raised a Catholic and I’ve never heard of this before, and indeed, there is nothing in Catholic teachings that support Pelosi’s claim.

These are progressive woman attacking conservative women.  Their sacrament is abortion.  Progressives do not value life like conservatives do.  It’s obvious in the comments they use to criticize women with infants born with birth defects.  They criticized Gov. Sarah Palin for not aborting her Down ’s syndrome baby.  They looked with disgust at large families with normal heterosexual and religious values.

It was the late Paul Harvey that said during one of his broadcast sign-offs in 1965: “If I were the Devil

If I were the Devil . . . I mean, if I were the Prince of Darkness, I would of course, want to engulf the whole earth in darkness. I would have a third of its real estate and four-fifths of its population, but I would not be happy until I had seized the ripest apple on the tree, so I should set about however necessary to take over the United States. I would begin with a campaign of whispers. With the wisdom of a serpent, I would whisper to you as I whispered to Eve: “Do as you please.” “Do as you please.”   To the young, I would whisper, “The Bible is a myth.” I would convince them that man created God instead of the other way around. I would confide that what is bad is good, and what is good is “square”.  In the ears of the young marrieds, I would whisper that work is debasing, that cocktail parties are good for you. I would caution them not to be extreme in religion, in patriotism, in moral conduct. And the old, I would teach to pray. I would teach them to say after me: “Our Father, which art in Washington” . . .

If I were the devil, I’d educate authors in how to make lurid literature exciting so that anything else would appear dull an uninteresting. I’d threaten T.V. with dirtier movies and vice versa. And then, if I were the devil, I’d get organized. I’d infiltrate unions and urge more loafing and less work, because idle hands usually work for me. I’d peddle narcotics to whom I could. I’d sell alcohol to ladies and gentlemen of distinction. And I’d tranquilize the rest with pills. If I were the devil, I would encourage schools to refine yound intellects but neglect to discipline emotions . . . let those run wild. I would designate an athiest to front for me before the highest courts in the land and I would get preachers to say “she’s right.” With flattery and promises of power, I could get the courts to rule what I construe as against God and in favor of pornography, and  thus, I would evict God from the courthouse, and then from the school house, and then from the houses of Congress and then, in His own churches I would substitute psychology for religion, and I would deify science because that way men would become smart enough to create super weapons but not wise enough to control them.

If I were Satan, I’d make the symbol of Easter an egg, and the symbol of Christmas, a bottle. If  I were the devil, I would take from those who have and I would give to those who wanted, until I had killed the incentive of the ambitious. And then, my police state would force everybody back to work. Then, I could separate families, putting children in uniform, women in coal mines, and objectors in slave camps. In other words, if I were Satan, I’d just keep on doing what he’s doing.

Paul Harvey, Good Day.

This is so true of today’s progressives.  They are exactly what Paul Harvey was warning the nation about.  He saw these progressive coming years ago.  He knew they were demonizing all the good values that made America great.  Since the maculation of Obama in 2008, he and his progressive minions have been tearing down all the pillars of the Constitution.  Socialist progressives like Obama have replaced the Constitution’s God given Rights of Life Liberty and Happiness, with Government Healthcare, Gay Marriage, and Class Envy.  It is like some crazed drug addict took over the country.

Not so far from the truth, eh?  All of the progressives in government are socialists.  Their goal is class envy, the destruction of Judeo-Christian religious institutions and the American family values.  The pendulum of liberalism has swung so far to the left that this country is on the verge of total destruction.  The Obama regime is transforming a free market capitalist based economy into a government central planning entity.  We are looking more like socialist Europe.  Our economy is on the verge of collapse.  As of today, our government has failed to pass a budget and spending remains out of control.  Conservatives have put cost cutting budgets to reform our largest spending problems, entitlements.  The Socialist controlled Senate has refused to consider any budget, by the conservatives and Obama.  In May 2012, the Senate voted 99-0 against Obama’s budget to increase spending and to raise the debt ceiling.

When conservatives introduce a budget with spending reforms, the progressives set out to attack it.  Progressives accuse conservatives of wanting Americans to breathe dirty air, drink dirty water and people with less health insurance.

Obama claims the stimulus has created jobs, but unemployment is still over 8%, and the real numbers are actually higher in certain demographics.  Obama has spent Trillions of dollars on Green Energy projects that have either gone bankrupt or moved to China.  Obama has directed the Environmental Protection Agency to impose regulations that have shut down businesses and put people out of work.

At a campaign stop in Youngstown, Ohio, today, Vice President Joe Biden lit into Republicans and their presumed presidential nominee Mitt Romney for what he described as a failure to understand the plight of the middle class.

“I resent when they talk about families like mine that I grew up in. I resent the fact that they think we’re talking about envy: it’s job envy, it’s wealthy envy; that we don’t dream,” an impassioned Biden told a crowd of manufacturing workers.
“My mother believed and my father believed that if I wanted to be president of the United States, that I could be, I could be vice president! My mother and father believed that if my brother or sister wanted to be a millionaire, they could be a millionaire! My mother and father dreamed as much as any rich guy dreams!
“They don’t get us! They don’t get who we are!”
he yelled before the crowd, drawing loud applause.

Biden was referring broadly to Republican criticism of the administration’s push for higher taxes on wealthier Americans and expanded investment in federal programs aimed at boosting low- to middle-income families.

What people need to understand is that under the Obama regime, the uncertain economic conditions have gotten worse over the last three and a half years.  Obama’s war on business has made companies doing more with less.  Companies are not hiring because they cannot forecast a business future in taxes and regulations.

It’s not just shutting down oil drilling and coal mining, it’s shutting down farms and lemonade stands.  It has just gotten out of control this government aggression.  So if conservatives are in favor of dirty water and dirty air and no healthcare, then what are progressives for?  Bankruptcy, joblessness and economic serfdom are what progressives want for America.

Obama is using class warfare to promote class envy.   Obama has used healthcare to divide religious freedoms.  Obama has used the sanctity of marriage to destroy the American family.  This is the transformation of America Obama promised as Hope and Change.  Apparently, being successful in America is somehow wrong.  Obama makes success sound like the rich stole it from the poor.

I don’t believe this is what Americans believe in when they voted for Hope and Change.  I don’t think most Americans understood what Obama was promising.  The news media deliberately did not vet Obama’s background and the media continues to protect Obama from his abysmal record.  There are fewer jobs and fewer opportunities.  The problem is the economy and the progressives don’t want to change the economy.  Listen to Debbie Wasserman Schultz dodging Fox News Bret Baier’s questions on student loans and the budget.  The pure dishonesty by this woman is extraordinary.

She is the Democrat Chairperson, a socialist progressive that refuses the answer a question.  She claims she knows what the American people want, but I don’t believe this is what the American people want in their government.  She claims Obama has put forth several proposal, but that’s an absolute lie.

Government spending has to be slowed, reforms have to be enacted, but the progressives are going to drag the budget process to the end of the year.  That will trigger massive tax increases and will destroy any economic recovery, such as it has been.  The government doesn’t create jobs, but the government does eliminate jobs through over-regulations and needless restrictions.  Higher taxes will force companies to lay off people.  Consumer spending will slow as goods and services increase in cost.

The American people needs to answer a simple question; do we want another four more years of failed economic policies, job crushing regulations and higher taxes?  Do we want a government spending its way into bankruptcy?  Do we want a central planning socialist government?  Do we want some government bureaucrat deciding our healthcare?  Do we want the government to force us to purchase health insurance, or pay a fine?  Do we want see the decline of America?

May Day Is Lei Day

In Hawai’i, May 1st is Lei Day.  It was two writers from the Honolulu Newspaper “Ka Hoku Buletina” (Star Bulletin) Grace Tower Warren and Don Blanding who came up with the idea of a holiday on May 1 in conjunction with May Day.  Grace Tower Warren is also credited for the phrase, “May Day is Lei Day.”  The first Lei Day was held on May 1, 1928.  Musicians Leonard “Red” and his wife Ruth wrote the song “May Day is Lei Day” and it has been a tradition ever since!  We celebrate with family, friends, great food and great music!

While we celebrate Lei Day with flowers, parties, parades, good food and music.  The socialist democrats along with Obama’s army of Occupy Wall Street protestors are busy causing property damage, violating the law, raping people, defecating on the streets, and even murdering people.  This is the definition of what the Soviets call “Useful Idiots”!

Rep. Col. Allen West during an interview with CNN, the Communist News Network, said he knows of about 80 members of Congress that are communists.  Although, Rep. Col. Allen West didn’t actually name names, it is pretty obvious who the communists are.  The Progressive Caucus is made up entirely of communists.  The Congressional Black Caucus is either mostly all communists, or racist fools.

While we celebrate, Obama and his socialist minions are laying the ground work for class warfare and class envy!  While we welcome and embrace all cultures, Socialist Democrats are plotting race warfare.  May Day has been the communist slave (workers) holiday where an Oligarchy government of central planners try and convince the populace that they will grant their every wish!  Socialism has never worked, and this regime is trying to convince the American people that capitalism never worked.   That is simply a lie, and the present state of the economy should be proof enough for that.  They are desperate to hold onto their power and they will say anything to convince you so.

You see, this is what Marxism is all about!  Hating and envy of others!  Despising success!  We know who the Occupy leadership is!  But who are the Occupiers?  Unions, that are losing their control over institutional slavery, and College Students indoctrinated with the lies of socialist dogma.  They claim economic disparity, but they are unwilling to face the facts that this regime has made life worse for them.  Instead, they are being led like a donkey by the proverbial carrot on a stick.  They are willing to do the bidding of a false deity that continues to promise everything, but delivers nothing.  A false prophet that continues to blame everyone and everything his failed policies have brought.  Are they that stupid to believe that government can provide the solution to everything?  We will know tomorrow!  Stay tuned!

FREE MARKET AMERICA

 

I’m enjoying a lovely Lāpule (Sunday) that the weatherman told me would be a rainy day.  They were wrong!  As usual, the environmentalist activist have made life intolerable for average Americans and now they want to celebrate the destruction of the American economy by declaring today “Earth Day“.  What a huge load of Bull Crap!

Criminal shakedown organizations like the Sierra Club make life more difficult, expensive, and the American Dream unattainable, by their constant bemoaning of make believe environmental alarmist causes.   These people belong in jail!  They are criminals against humanity.  They put Planet before people.  Who cares if you lose your job?  The Planet comes first!  Who cares if you cannot feed your family?  The Planet comes first!  Who cares if you cannot build a roof over your head? The Planet comes first!  Who cares if you want affordable energy?  The planet comes first!

Let’s just call these organizations for what they really are; Communist.  They want to control your life, your income, your food production, your home, your children and your economy.  Just like Hawai’i councilman Pete Hoffmann, a known Socialist Marxist has imposed building regulations with European standards that don’t apply to Hawaiian standards, and a Plastic Bag Ban that doesn’t stop a pollution problem.

 

 

We have land littered with broken down windmills that sit like silent sentinels, gazing over the landscape and polluting the environment.  They take up land space and offer no return on investment.  They give no energy; they just hurt the ‘Aina.  Yet, these extremist like Pete Hoffman and Brenda Ford would force you to change your lifestyle, just to make themselves sleep better at night.  They should be prosecuted and jailed for crimes against humanity and Hawai’i!  Yet the State wants to put more of these Behemoth’s in Lani’i!

The so called revised building regulations just make it harder for low income people to build.  Why?  Because people like Pete Hoffman and Brenda Ford, B. Smart and the Sierra Club have their slice of Hawai’I Nei, and they don’t want anyone else to get a chance at achieving Paradise.  It is discrimination, both racial and economical.  So they put these ridicules environmental rules in place to prevent anyone from building a better life for their families.  That’s our Hawai’i County legislators, the Scum of the Earth.  On this Earth Day, I wish them all to HELL!

Obama’s War On America

 

If there is a “War On America”, then it is the meme of Obama’s election strategy.  The Obama campaign launched the first salvo in the “War On America” by using the Class Warfare attack.  Obama doesn’t seem to want to give up that strategy of divide and conquer, but instead Obama has decided to double down on fueling the Rich verses the Poor.

After the disastrous attempt by the Socialist Democrat party Chief Debbie Wassamatterwitherhair Schultz, and former House of Misrepresentative Leader Nazi “Botox” Piglosi, to use the Sandra Fluke contraception ploy in a manufactured “War On Women”, Obama quickly returned to his original strategy of Class Warfare.  Meanwhile, Socialist Operatives in both political and entertainment circles have viciously attacked Ann Romney by saying she never worked a day in her life.  How do they know what Ann Romney does in her life and what business is it of theirs?   They should go back to gushing over Michelle Obama’s elbow and knees, and the taxpayer’s monies she spends on lavish vacations.

Ever since Obama maculated the Office the Presidency, he’s had a war on everything American.  The Cash For Clunkers was the War on Automobiles.  The BP Gulf oil disaster started the War on Energy.  The Green Technology bankruptcy was the War on the Environment.  Now we have these windmills erected all around the country, polluting the landscape with these eyesores that are environmentally unfriendly.  We have Government Motors building electric cars that catch fire and don’t hold a charge, yet the government wants to sell you a $40,000 hunk of junk.

Others Socialist Democrats like Elizabeth Warren that claims that no one got rich on their own.  Using some bizarre logic that anyone that is successful, did so it at others expense.  Of course, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and myself included, never made it without any government help.  So what Batty Betty is saying is that we are all too stupid to become successful on our own.  We must have government bootstrap us into success.  What a crock!  If only government got out of our way, we’d have more employment and more wealthy people!

Now if you challenge any of these Socialist Democrats on this, they immediately deflect the argument into an unrelated subject.  They talk about paying for tax cuts!?!  An interesting and backwards logic, taxes that are paid for, go figure!!  Then they whine about unpaid for wars and what happened in the last administration.  What about the war of 1812, or the Spanish-American wars?  All nonsense because they cannot, and do not have an answer for this regimes criminal behavior.  Obama is building a class war and a race war.  Obama would have you believe that anyone against his destructive policies of raising energy prices, creating unsustainable debt and destroying American jobs, is in favor of dirty air, dirty water and all things unholy!   This is indefensible!  Now back to taxes!

WARNING LANGUAGE

 

 

In the IRS tax tables, you can see the percentage of taxes people must pay based on their total income.  Yet, Obama says the rich are not paying enough, and they aren’t paying their fair share.  The question I ask is, just how much is a fair share that must be given unto Caesar?  The United States has the dubious distinction of having the highest corporate tax rates in the world.  What do you think corporations do to recoup those costs?  They pass them on to the consumer.  We pay for corporation’s goods and services, and we also pay for the tax imposed on them by the government.  Somehow raising taxes is the solution?!?!

Socialist Democrats like Elizabeth Warren and Obama make unsubstantiated claims that there has to be fairness.  But what is fair about a tax rate that jumps 5% when you cross the income threshold into a higher tax bracket?

Suppose you are a married couple, and you’ve done your taxes, and when you looked up your tax rate in the IRS-1040 tax tables.  As you can see, anyone making less than $17,000, and after your Standard/Itemized deductions and your personal exceptions; you pay no taxes!  Zero!  Nada! Zilch!  However, once you cross the $19,500 threshold, then you start to pay Federal taxes.  You can test my results using this on-line calculator.  It does make assumptions, but it’s the point I want to make here.

The people that make the most pay 35% of their income in Federal taxes!  Then there are the deductions, loopholes and other tax shelters that the Congress wrote into law!  This is why rich people park their money in overseas banks like in the Cayman Islands.  Who wants 1/3 of their income taken by a government that spends it like drunken sailors?  With all due respect to drunken sailors.  The Congress, under Socialist Democrat control, spent 5 Trillion Dollars during the first two years of the Obama Regimes Rule!  Wrap your head around that!  5 Trillion Dollars of money we don’t have!

So when Obama keeps using Warren Buffett as the senile poster child for increasing taxes, he deliberately lies to you by not explaining the taxable difference.  Warren Buffett pays 15% taxes on Capital Gains, but that’s money that has already been taxed!  The difference is between earned income, and Capital Gains on investments.  Income on Capital Gains is money that has already been taxed!  It’s sort of like double taxation.  You’re being taxed on the money you already paid taxes on.  So, is that fair?  This is where Obama lies, a tax on the rich is a tax on all Americans.

This Class Warfare is Obama’s “War On America”!  The War on the American People can be summed up by Obama’s criminal policies.  The subterfuge is blaming the rich for Obama’s failed policies.  People have stopped listening to Obama’s blame President Bush excuse.  After three years of raising the debt higher than President Bush ever did in eight years, and higher than any other President ever in history, Obama needs to find a scapegoat.  So Obama blames anything and everything to try and distract the American people from his abysmal policies.  Obama has weakened America, both economically and respectfully.  Obama has insulted our allies and cozies up to our enemies.  Obama’s disdain for the American People earns him a special place in history.  Move over Jimmy Carter, Obama is NOW the worst President in American History!

Obama or Obama-Lite?

Great Expense

Obama, or Obama-lite?  President Willard Mittens “Milquetoast” Romney!  That has an awful ring to it.  But that’s what’s going to happen if Romney gets the nomination.  Its Romney’s election to lose and we will see another 4 more years of Marxist rule.  I wouldn’t be surprised if Obama wouldn’t try and nullify the Constitution and the Bill of Rights in favor of a One World Rule under the United Nations.

I say that because Romney has not taken the steps to go after Obama’s Marxist policies.  Obama’s has conspired with the Marxist Russians to create a ruling class of government bureaucracies.  Obama has conspired with the Communist Chinese to take ownership of American sovereignty.  Obama has outspent every American president since the founding of this country.  Yet, Obama continues to blame the Bush administration as the reason why his failed economic policies haven’t worked.  I am not rich by any sense of the imagination, but I can tell you that the Bush Tax Cuts provided me with the means to move to Hawai’i.  The life I have now, and my successes, can be attributed to Bush Tax Cuts.  Everything I have now is at risk because of this regime’s policies.  The future doesn’t look promising.

Romney makes the argument that Obama is “In Over His Head!”  With that naïve talk, he will lose the election.  He embraced the John McCain “Kiss Of Electoral Death” endorsement.  All the wrong people are behind Romney.  The GOP establishment, for example, which has done nothing to support the Tea Party and the message of economic stability the Tea Party brings.  Romney has never warmed up to the Tea Party; instead he’s kept a firm distance away from the Tea Party.   Romney acts like the Tea Party is some kind of political pariah that shouldn’t be credited with the 2010 election that brought semblance of economic stability.  A halt to the Democrats and Obama’s out of control spending.  But the Tea Party only won the House of Representatives, State Governorships, and local governments.  There is so much more that needs to be done.  The enthusiasm gap that grows increasingly only hurts Romney’s chances at winning the election.

Romney hasn’t inspired any confidence that he will provide any economic solutions.  The Ryan budget offers a course to put this country back on economic stability, but there doesn’t seem to be any support for the Ryan budget.  Obama calls the budget “Economic Darwinism”.  Yet Obama continues to throw money at failed “Green Energy” projects that continue to go bankrupt.  Trillions of taxpayer monies wasted on a utopian fantasy that is only realized in Hollywood movies like Star Trek.  Romney cannot continue to push his resume’ on fixing the Olympics with hopes to convince the electorate he has the business experience.  Not when he shies away from his own wealth.  Romney’s setting himself up to look like some rich out-of-touch elitist, which he’s doing his best to look like.

Obama has declared all out war on anyone with wealth success in this country.  The “Buffet Rule” is the biggest load of class warfare crap ever foisted on the American people.  This notion that the wealthy are the 1% keeping the 99% from ever reaching economic freedom is pure socialist propaganda.  There is no such thing.  This is a message without any vision.  This is creating a strawman argument that people with success are holding down the rest of the population.  So we must punish success by redistributing their money to those not willing to earn it for themselves.

The Obama Entitlement Society is where this nation is heading.  It is an addiction created by government to keep the people under control.  The socialist John Dingle (D-MI) made that abundantly clear in a revealing interview about Obamacare, a.k.a. the “Unaffordable Health Care Act.”

You cannot walk back that statement as being anything other than pure Marxist Socialism.  This is the fact that Democrats have been feeding the American people for years.  This is the trap of government entitlements that will eventually destroy our freedoms.  This is what Obama is offering to the American people, government enslavement.  Economic servitude is the policy of the Obama regime.  Many people don’t see it that way; they look at this as getting free stuff from the government.  However, there is no such thing a free stuff!  Everything comes with a price and what is not earned, is taken away.  Freedom is not free.  Freedom must be fought for, because once freedom is taken away, you will never get it back.

That’s what we are facing in this election.  Four more years down the road of socialism with a certain future of government enslavement, or Obama-lite.  With Romney, I don’t see a difference, just a continuation down the same path, just a longer route to the same destination.  Obama complains to America’s enemies that the Constitution holds him back from making the necessary changes to enslave the American people.  Socialist Democrats in Congress are actively trying to destroy the Constitution and they are doing so with the approval of the news media.  A news media that is protecting Obama, by not exposing his Marxist policies!  A news media that is promoting class warfare, class envy and racial division!  A news media that promotes Obama’s policy of a “War On Women!”  The transparency that Obama promised was a deliberate lie.  Then again, I knew this even before Obama maculated the Office of the Presidency of the United States.

The term “United” has been torn apart by this regimes policies.  Bring lawsuits on states that are trying to prevent voter fraud.  Favored practices by democrats use to steal elections.  One thing is still certain; we still have an illegal immigration problem.  People are still trying to enter this country.  You don’t see people trying to leave this country.  So there is still the promise of freedom as guaranteed in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

Our founders knew there would be politicians like Obama and the Socialist Democrats that would try and create a Plutocracy style government.  An Oligarchy government ruled by a few privileged classes making all the decisions of where we can live, what we can eat, what we can wear and what kind of house we can live in.  Who needs a government that will be a perpetual parent?  The Founders placed restrictions on the size of government to allow the people to grow their own wealth.  When Obama told the President of Russia that he will have more flexibility after he gets reelected, what do you think meant?  If Obama were to get reelected, I fear we will not see the America that I’ve known and grew up in.  I fear a loss of personal freedoms.  I fear a government that should be fearing the people.

Hawai’i’s Legislative Tyranny

STUPID

What are some members of the Hawai’i state legislature thinking?  They approved a bill that was submitted to the Hawai’i Senate calling for a United States Constitution Convention. They want to put Obamacare into the Constitution!  They want to eliminate the Electoral College and Repeal the Second Amendment!  They want the Tyranny of the Majority to rule over all!  Hawai’i Free Press Andrew Walden writes:

  • writing Obamacare into the Constitution,
  • upholding the tyranny of the majority by abolishing the Senate Filibuster
  • abolishing the Electoral College so corrupt political machines in Chicago and elsewhere can run up the national vote totals and swing the Presidential election instead of being limited to their effect on one state.
  • weakening the ability of the Senate to review unfit Presidential appointees so after stealing an election, the next Obama can lard the judiciary with his co-thinkers.

Here is the language from the Resolution, as approved:

 (1)  A declaration of the constitutionality of the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, including the individual mandate requiring the purchase of health insurance;

 (2)  An amendment to Article I, Section 5, to prohibit the supermajority cloture requirement under Rule 22 of the United States Senate for ending floor debates and filibusters, to facilitate a more reasonable voting standard for cloture;

(3)  An amendment abolishing the electoral college established under Article II, Section 1, and providing for the direct election of the United States President and Vice President by voters; and

(4)  An amendment to Article II, Section 2, Clause 2, to require that Senate confirmations of appointments of officers of the United States be made by a simple majority vote within sixty days of the nomination; now, therefore,

They did remove the language to eliminate the 2nd Amendment.  However, there are far more pressing issues in Hawai’i and the legislator shouldn’t be wasting their time and our money with useless legislation like this.  First, the State of Hawai’i has no business telling the Senate and the House of Representatives how to conduct their business.  Neither does any other State have that privilege in determination.  This is disturbing at best because it shows a lack of understanding of the United States Constitution by members of the Hawai’i State Legislature, in particular the Judiciary committee.  Read the testimony given to the legislature by the public here:

The original bill had language that would have eliminated the Second Amendment; the right to keep and bear arms: It was adopted on December 15, 1791, along with the rest of the Bill of Rights; and now some in the Hawai’i legislature wants to eliminate 221 years of a Constitutional Rights?!?  What are they thinking?  Surely not the Bill of Rights as defined by the Founders of our system of government.

Video of the Hawai’i Legislators voting against this Rubbish Legislation

There are those that understood that a Constitutional Convention would not be in the best interests of either the Hawaiian people, or the country as a whole.  These legislators that voted for this piece of rubbish legislation should be forced to take a course on the Constitution!  Hillsdale College has a free course on understanding the Constitution and I recommend the Hawaiian legislators take this course.

Is there a need for a Constitution Convention?  What would be the purpose but to change the Constitution into the form of Socialism that Democrats will use to enslave the American people in.  It probably would be a great way to prevent illegal immigration, because no one would want to live in a socialist country that will look more like either Cuba or Venezuela, rather than a free America.  But I digress!

There is no need to change the Constitution in its present form, at all!  Period! Socialist Democrats have been attempting to rewrite the Constitution for decades!  It is a form of creeping Communism that was once predicted:  Nikita Kruschev said communism would take the US without firing a shot, was he prophetic?  We now have a president and members of congress that have already crossed the line to socialism. We are only one step away from Marxist communism. What do you comrades say? Is this the Hope and Change you wanted?

Obama, I am told, is a Constitutional scholar, a professor of our system of government.  I no longer believe that with the passing of Obamacare by Socialist democrats and signed by an obvious believer in Marxism.  I believe Obama’s constitution was written by Karl Marx’s Communist manifesto, and like members of the Hawaiian legislature, they are following down the road to serfdom; both economically and politically.

Pledge Allegiance To Karl Marx and Socialism

It is most likely that the Supreme Court will strike down the Unaffordable Care Act as unconstitutional.  So why would the legislators want to put Obamacare in the US Constitution?  It forces you to purchase an insurance product and many in Hawai’i cannot afford health insurance.  It’s one of the reasons why we have so many free clinics.  The law also states that if you do not purchase insurance you be fined.  Did the legislator realize that many of the poor cannot afford to pay fines for not purchasing insurance?  What will the legislators do, throw everyone in jail?  Place the burden of paying the poor’s insurance on the backs of the Taxpayers?  I wouldn’t put it pass the legislators to do such a thing.

The reason why the Hawai’i legislators put this lame excuse for a bill forward is about power.  The Socialist Democrats are emboldened by Obama’s blatant power grabs of the Auto, Insurance and Health care industries.  So now they are trying to change the Constitution to keep them in power and to repeal our God given rights.  They want to foist upon us rights determined by their lust for power.  They want to create a class of entitled people hopelessly dependent on government assistance.  They are not interested in self-determination, they will decide for you what you will eat, wear, drive, and where and what kind of house you can live in!

 

This is Agenda 21 thinking by members of the Hawaiian Legislators.  It is an attempt to control economic and social dimensions.  It is an attempt to legislate conservation and management of resources.  It is a means of wealth redistribution.  It is an attempt to inject socialist rule on the American people.

If you are not familiar with Agenda 21, and how it relates to this article, watch this video:

By now you’ve guessed how some in the Hawai’i legislature think.  This One World Government approach to all your needs provided by government.  A centrally planned world government that seeks to redistribute wealth to other nations is the goal of Agenda 21.  The United Nations is rife with corruption and any semblance of peace, love and happiness.  Or any fairness, because it’s a power grab!  The language that was removed from the bill to eliminate the 2nd Amendment is the first step to a communist tyranny, take guns away from the people, and it leaves them defenseless and at the mercy of a dictatorial government.  The Hawaiian legislature is dominantly made up of democrats and most are socialist democrats with Marxist beliefs.  They are extremist, and like all extremist, they use flowerily statements to pretend they are doing something good for you; when in reality, they torment you to make themselves feel good.

Misrepresentation

Misrepresentation

 

My Congressional misrepresentative Crazy Mazie Hirono (D-HI) sent out a newsletter proudly proclaiming that she’s against the people of Hawai’i in the Second District where I live.  In her newsletter she states that she voted against the Ryan budget because she claims it will harm the priorities of communities and the people of Hawai’i.  That’s a flat out lie!

Hirono outlines 10 points where she misrepresents the Ryan budget with Socialist Democrat talking points.  Each point is a complete distortion of the Ryan budget.  Hirono would rather keep with the failed policies of the Obama regime.

Let’s take a look at her poorly defined excuses for not voting for a stronger Hawai’i:

1)      Ends Medicare as we know it:  Medicare as we know it, is going broke.  The Ryan plan brings Medicare back into solvency.  Medicare is already in the RED and will eventually run out of money.  Hirono would rather keep propping up a system going broke.  Doctors are starting to turn away Medicare patients.  Ryan’s voucher plan would give more flexibility to the patient to choose and decide their medical needs.  Under the current plan, the patient and the doctor must follow government rules that restrict how Medicare money is spent.  In effect, keeping the government between you and your doctor.  It is well known that AARP is a stooge for Obamacare, that catastrophe of a healthcare plan soon to be declared Unconstitutional by the Supreme Court.  Social Security is going broke, the government has spent the money that was promised; there are only IOU’s left in Social Security trust.  The only thing Hirono’s budget does is keep our money in government hands to further misspend it recklessly.

2)      Repeals the Affordable Care Act: Also known as Obamacare.  And YES!  We want that Obamanation REPEALED!  It is 2,700 pages of bad law!  Why else is the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) giving waivers away!  Waivers mostly to Unions and Obama cronies.  It is well known that without the waivers, companies would have dropped their employee healthcare plans, well before the Government Insurance Exchange programs will have started in 2014.  The excuse of insurance discrimination is flat out wrong.  Obamacare will discriminate against patients and doctors through a 15 member panel of unelected, but appointed, bureaucrats.  This unelected panel, (a.k.a. Death Panels) will decide if you will get any healthcare.  They will focus on cost and not care.  This panel will judge your eligibility for healthcare by your taxable worthiness. In other words, if you not paying enough in taxes to support the system, you will receive rationed care.  Why else does Obamacare force parents to insure their children till 26 years of age?  Because the law assumes the child’s taxable worthiness will reach the level needed to prop up Obamacare.  Someone has to pay for Obamacare and the law assumes 26 years of age is that age level that reaches the workforce as a fully paying taxpayer.  Seniors and retirees, on the other hand, will receive rationed care.  Obama said it himself; “Maybe your Mother should take the Pill!”  Preventing insurance discrimination for pre-existing conditions can be made a law by itself.  Insurance is not healthcare.  Insurance is a means to healthcare and should be treated separately.  As Obamacare become more online, the costs are going up.  You won’t be able to keep your doctor.  You won’t be able to keep your insurance.  What will result, will be a two tiered healthcare system where the very rich will be able to afford health care, and everyone else will have hospital emergency rooms just to get basic healthcare.  That’s the future of Obamacare.  Is the age of consent now going to be 26 years of age?

3)      Attacks Women’s Health Care:  That’s a total lie! A manufactured scare tactic the Socialist Democrats like Hirono are using to try and scare women.  Insurance discrimination is a falsehood!  Insurance is not healthcare, but a means to acquiring it.  A simple law to prevent insurance companies from discriminating anyone, regardless of either gender, age or precondition, doesn’t need to be in a wieldy 2,700 pages of bureaucratic nonsense disguised as healthcare.  This scare tactic Hirono and her Socialist partners in crime are playing on the American people’s fears is shameful.  There is no proof that the Ryan plan discriminates against women.  That is a simply a lie, and Hirono knows it.  What Hirono wants to do is make everyone pay for abortions and contraceptive services.  There is nothing in the Ryan budget that prevents women from healthcare, that’s the bottom line.  Shame on Hirono for promoting a lie to her constituents.

4)      Eliminates Brand USA, our nation’s travel promotion arm: The question is, why do we need this program?  Wouldn’t a program like this be better administered through private enterprise?  The answer is a resounding YES!  The mission of Brand USA is to encourage international visitation to the United States.  With the debt burden that Obama has done in just 3 short years, something has to go!  The taxpayer money spent marketing the American States, cities and towns would be used at the local level.  The world already knows where and who we are.  This is just wasteful needless spending.

5)      Rolls back efforts to make college affordable: Is college affordable now?  Is college a good value today with leftist professors indoctrinating students into a Socialist model?  No!  This is another scare tactic by Hirono and her Socialist Democrat criminals.  You’ve got Occupy Wall Street (OWS) people running around with worthless degrees in such fields as Cyberfeminism” and “Taking Marx Seriously: Should Marx Be Given Another Chance?”.  These are real courses being offered in Universities that Hirono wants you to pay for through government grants.  What marketing skills do courses like this offer the soon to be 26 year old about to enter the workforce?  Ryan’s plan does not eliminate grant programs; it just streamlines it towards courses with job marketable skills.  Isn’t that a better use of taxpayer money?  Let the student pay for these whacky courses through other means other than government taxpayer grants.

6)      Slashes education programs for Hawaii’s students:  This is also another lie and scare tactic that Hirono should be ashamed of.  Currently the Department of Education (DoE) is spending more money, but getting poorer results.  Hirono would rather continue the time honored practice of throwing taxpayer monies at a failing system and hoping someday it will get better.  The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.  The Federal taxpayer monies spent on education should be a block grant to let the States run their education programs that work for the people of their state.  Hirono would continue with a central planned system that puts conditions on the states like “No Child Left Behind”, a noble plan that never worked.  Hirono would better represent the educational needs of Hawai’i’s students by working to get the largest block grant for her district.  But that means work.

7)      Cuts nearly 4.1 million jobs nationwide through 2014: This is Liberal fantasy!  This is the Socialist Model that states only the government can create jobs.  It is not the role of the government to create jobs.  Our Constitution is based on a Free Market Capitalist system, not a Socialist Central Planning model.  The Obama regime has spent billions of taxpayer dollars trying to make that work and it has failed miserably.  The Ryan plan seeks to eliminate unnecessary wasteful government programs.  Currently, the rate of government spending is unsustainable and dangerous.  It is pure fantasy to believe spending can continue at its current rate.  I believe the Ryan budget doesn’t cut enough!  I also believe Economic Policy Institute is nothing more than a mouth-piece for the Congressional Progressive Caucus to spread economic half-truths and outright misinformation.  The Economic Policy Institute makes claims, but fails to back it up with any supporting data.  Under Obama’s NO PLAN, but continuing run-away spending will eventually hurt everyone; seniors, children, poor, middle class and the rich.  Again, another Social scare tactic by Hirono.

8)      Gives millionaires and billionaires $265,000 each in addition to the $129,000 they would receive from the Bush tax cuts:  Hirono is a student of Keynesian economics and wealth redistribution.  Classic Socialism and Class Warfare! The belief that if you take money from one group of people and give it to another group.  That does not create jobs.  It does not create economic opportunity.  Hirono wants to expand government by using tax payer money to waste on government programs.  That’s unsustainable!  The Bush tax cuts gave everyone a tax cut.  Obama and Hirono wants to punish people that are wealthy and successful.  Hirono wants to tax the job creators.  Hirono wants to slow down the economy by killing small business with unnecessary taxes.  This country has the highest corporate tax rate in the world.  Hawai’i has some of the highest taxes in the nation.  Hawai’i currently tacked on a half percent to the General Excise Tax (GET) to build a train to nowhere.  How long before Honolulu’s mistake starts to affect the neighbor islands?  This nonsense of taxing and spending our way into prosperity is complete idiocy and irresponsible.

9)      Cuts transportation investments in roads, bridges, rail lines, buses, and airports: Again, spending cuts need to be done because we don’t have the money.  Obama has drained the Treasury.  We as a country are broke.  To continue to deny that is like not paying your mortgage.  Eventually you will lose your house.  It’s like not paying your credit cards, eventually the bank will come for you.  It’s like not paying off your car; eventually the repo man will repossess your car.  States should be responsible for their transportation priorities.  Instead, States with Democrat leadership have wasted transportation projects on other general fund projects.  Neil “Crusty the Clown” Abercrombie took money from the Hurricane fund for other projects.  This is the same thing that Hirono wants to do.  Barney Frank, the Congressman crook that once claimed the Housing Market was solvent and not in trouble of collapsing, did a fund raiser for Hirono.  You see, these are the people that caused the economic collapse.  It wasn’t the Bush tax cuts.  It wasn’t the eight years of the Bush presidency.  It started in 2006 when the House of Representatives was dominated by Socialist Democrats.  That’s when out of control spending started.  That’s when the housing market started to implode.  In 2008 when Obama Regime increased spending with Cash For Clunkers, the GM Bailout, the Stimulus plan and the Quantitative Easing of the economy.  All failed economic policies supported and voted for by Hirono.

10)   Protects tax breaks and boosts incentives for corporations shipping American jobs overseas:  I don’t know what incentives companies to move overseas, except for high taxes and over regulation.  Hirono and her gang of Socialist Democrats have choked businesses with high taxes and over-regulations.  Their failed economic policies to pick winners and losers have resulted in millions of job losses.  Conveniently, Hirono blames the Republicans for the Democrats failed policies.  The Democrats owned the House of Representatives for 4 years until 2010 when the Tea Party and Conservatives swept the house with Fiscal Conservatives.  There hasn’t been a budget passed since Obama came into power.  Even the Senate rejected Obama’s budget.  So for Hirono to gleefully cast her vote against fiscal sanity just shows the lack of intelligence she has understanding how the economy works.

Hirono offers no budget solution herself.  Typical Marxist Democrats that are good at making speeches but little on substance and follow through.  At least Ryan has a budget with substantial fiscal sanity.  Sooner or later, this nation needs to come to grips with our fiscal house.  If not, we will surely end in worse condition.  Hirono can hide her head in the sand all she wants, but standing on the sidelines and making unhelpful comments doesn’t demonstrate good government.  It does show a small petty woman with an ego of empty vanity.

 

 

House Budget Commitee Chairman Paul Ryan corrected Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz’s incorrect speech on Medicare during House Floor debate of the Path to Prosperity Budget.

DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz: As a member of Congress representing a large number seniors in south Florida, I can tell you that the House Republican Budget would be devastating for seniors and older Americans. This Republican path to poverty would pass like a tornado through America’s nursing homes, where millions of Americans seniors receive long-term and end-of-life care.

HBC Chairman Paul Ryan: The growth rate of Medicare under this budget is the same one the President proposes in his budget. Here’s the difference: President Obama in his law — the one being debated over in the Supreme Court — says 15 unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats will be in charge of putting price controls and cuts to Medicare to accommodate that growth rate. Our plan puts 50 million seniors in charge of choosing what health care plan is best for them — more for the poor, more for the sick, less for the wealthy, and it makes Medicare solvent. 

And here’s the catch: we don’t change the benefit for current seniors. This just applies to younger people – unlike the current law that the President passed — that my friend voted for – 15 bureaucrats are in charge of putting price controls on current seniors’ medical care which leads to denied care for them. So if we’re talking about who’s “saving and strengthening Medicare” it is this budget as opposed to the status quo, which raids it, rations it and still allows the program to go bankrupt.

“This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility,”

Presumption is a scary thing.  Does Obama know something we don’t?

The Ryan Republican Budget did pass in the House today.  The Senate is scheduled to review the budget, but the Socialist Democrats that holds the majority rule under Harry Reid will most likely put the budget on hold.  This means the current rate of mismanaged spending will continue until after the election.  If Obama gets reelected, the America as we have known it will cease to exist.  Our economic future will look like Europe, in particular Greece.  That is a future which will end the republic and the beginning of a socialist model much like Russia.  If Obama is reelected, the Second Amendment will end and Obama will disarm the populace.  If Obama is reelected, free speech will be a thing of the past; any dissenting opinion will be not be tolerated.  If Obama is reelected healthcare will be rationed, jobs will be scarce, housing will be government owned and the disintegration of individual freedoms and liberties will be forever lost.

Stupid Is As Stupid Does

Fraud

Not since the days of Franklin Roosevelt has so much fallen on the shoulders of one president, and when he faced his country, who looked at him for answers, he would not dwell in blame or idealism

REALLY!?!?!

Hollywood has produced some marvelous works of fiction before and these 16 minutes and 57 seconds of propaganda are not only laughable, but outright lunacy.  Tom Hanks who narrates this piece of political rubbish reprised his role as Forest Gump, only this time, he thinks you, the American people, are stupid.

Since the day Obama was emaculated into the office of the President of the United States, he’s been blaming George Bush, Fat Cat corporations and Republicans for everything from the economy, the BP Gulf oil spill, Global Warming and anything else Obama’s failed socialist policies have brought.  Now, in an effort to hide his gross incompetency’s, he’s teamed up with well to do 1%’ers in Hollywood to create a work of remarkably obtuse propaganda that even Joseph Goebbels would be proud of.

Obama’s whining and lies are well documented here’s a sample:  Quotes Sourced Here:

Obama Blames Bush and Congress for Deficits, February 1st, 2010, in remarks delivered on the budget.

Obama Blames Bush for Regulatory Policies, January 17th, 2010, remarks by the president at an event with Massachusetts Attorney General Martha Coakley.

Obama Blames Wall Street Fat Cats for Economic Disaster, December 13th, 2009, CBS News’ 60 Minutes.

Obama Blames Bush for Overall Economy, September 27th, 2009, remarks by the president at the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation’s annual dinner.

And my personal favorite: Obama Blames Arab Spring and Japan’s Earthquake on Struggling Economy and Job Situation, August 5th, 2011.

What’s even more mysterious are the throngs of mindless Obama-drones that nod their heads like bobble-head puppets in agreement when he’s giving another campaign speech.  Campaign speeches that Obama’s been giving ever since he was elected under fraudulent circumstances.  Let’s face it folks, Hope and Change was a lie.

For the first two years that Obama was in office, his only legislative accomplishment was the disastrous Affordable Health Care Act (a.k.a. Obamacare).  The bill that had to be passed so we could find out what was in the bill.  At that time, Congress was dominated by Socialist Democrats.  Obama could have done a lot of things, but his only accomplishment was a takeover of the Health Care Industry, the Automobile Industry, the Banking Industry and the Insurance Industry.  Remember when Obama said if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor?  If you like your insurance, you can keep your insurance.  Watch to this exchange on that very question:

My doctor has told me that they will not be able to stay in a private practice.  I have heard other doctors saying they will be leaving the industry and that if you do need care, you will have to go to an emergency room.  This is why it is so important that Obamacare be repealed.  This is why Obama must be removed from the Office of the Presidency before he can do more damage to our economy, our country and our freedoms.

And he says we can't drive: Click To Watch!

Since the stunning election turnover in Congress in 2010, Obama has been misusing his authority by issuing Executive Orders to further push his socialist agenda of a Chinese style centralized government.  This country has been bleeding jobs to other countries.  This country has been spending beyond its means.  This country entitlement’s has been increasing.  These have been Obama’s policies.  He campaigned on making it more expensive to afford electricity, medical care and home ownership.  Obama wants you to drive a $40,000 dollar Chevy Volt.  Only the very rich can afford a Volt, and the reliability of the Chevy Volt is dubious at best.  From catching on fire and running out of power between charges, the Chevy Volt doesn’t seem to be a bargain at any price.

But this is just another in a string of “distractions” that Obama has been using to play the American people as fools.  Hollywood steps in to add more distractions, to create a fantasy of a leader with a huge weight upon his shoulders.  A distraction away from a failing economy, from government takeovers, from unobtainable home ownership and disappearing jobs.  Obama fabricated a nonexistent war on women which his socialist democrat minions tried to pin on Republicans.  And you never hear any complaint about either Bill Maher or David Letterman’s vulgar attacks against conservative women.  Even Sarah Palin’s daughter Bristol was a victim of vicious attacks by liberal pretend to be comedians, yet Obama can call up and comfort liberal abortion activist Sandra Fluke when Rush Limbaugh rightly calls her a slut, but Obama chooses to ignore the conservative victim.  Double standards, dividing America and being the hypocritical leader of Hope and Change.  Maybe this is Obama’s Cee Lo Green to America. F”YOU!

Obama thinks you’re stupid.  Hollywood looks down on you.  Socialist Democrats thumb their noses at you.  They think you are forgetful.  They think you are stupid.  Next, they’ll blame you for their failures!
