Are you ready?

It happened in Cuba

The families of the murdered men feel differently

They want answers.  Yesterday’s hearings were a start. . . but we still don’t know who gave the order to start blaming a video for a cover up.

Features of the Obamaphone (humor)

Via the always brilliant People’s Cube and Chicago Boyz:

It automatically rejects calls from people with a different opinion.

Every time you take a picture, it produces a grimmer image of America.

It doesn’t have a plan; it just keeps telling you how bad the other guy’s plan is.

When it crashes, it blames your previous phone.

All 3 AM calls go directly to voicemail.

It has a really useless app called “Biden.”

Pairing it with another device sucks all the energy out of the other unit.

Type in “job search” and it gives you directions to the welfare office.

The navigation feature covers all 57 States.

The default ringtone for international calls is “I’m sorry, so sorry, please accept my apology.”

The healthcare app downloads and installs itself without your permission.

When you make a call, a teleprompter pops up to help you speak.

Restaurant reviews are all written by Michelle Obama.

There are never any winners on Angry Birds.

Instagram takes two months to process a photo and you have to fill out 3 PDFs to do so.

Paypal app is replaced with ReceivePal app.

You can’t find “Jerusalem” on Google maps.

It turns all your Facebook friends into enemies and all your enemies into friends.

Don’t want to work? There’s an app for that, too.

It automatically bows down to phones made by foreign companies.

When you watch a YouTube video, a US ambassador gets killed.

When you dial “home”, it calls Kenya.

As opposed to the iPhone, it’s called the mePhone.

Abortion is not “reproductive health”

It’s sure death for the baby, but what about the mother?  So why do Democrats push abortion as a “health” issue. It’s anti-health. And our government is trying to export it and fund it for black and brown women in developing countries.

• subsequent preterm birth;
• placenta previa (a complication during pregnancy where the placenta partially or totally covers the mother’s cervix and which can cause severe bleeding before or during delivery);
• subsequent suicide or suicidal ideation;
• major depression;
• substance abuse;
• anxiety;
• sleeping disorders;
• breast cancer as a result of the loss of the protective effect of a first full-term pregnancy;
• miscarriage;
• ectopic pregnancy;
• and death.

Big Obama Bird

On Tuesday, at a rally for Obama here in Columbus, Ohio, the performer chose to play something new: the theme song for “Sesame Street.”  Interesting that Obama is taking this so lightly.  Sort of like on September 12, 2012, after the State Department knew it was a terrorist attack that killed our Ambassador and 3 other Americans and he took off on the campaign trail to get chummy with Beyonce and Jay-Z and Dave Letterman for another big fund raiser with celebrities.

Charlene Lamb, Deputy Assistant Secretary for International Programs, Bureau of Diplomatic Security, U.S. Department of State yesterday testified she’d listened to the whole account in real time.  Col. Wolf,  a Utah National Guard Green Beret, said they knew it was not a mob but a terrorist attack immediately.

So why the focus on Big Bird, except he doesn’t take this seriously? He’s still so cocky he thinks he won that debate despite what his staff have told him? The crowd was confused. . . they already knew Big Bird wasn’t playing well for him.

New York Times political correspondent Jeff Zeleny also tweeted about the audience's surprise at will's creative interlude. "At Ohio State, will.i.am picks up Big Bird theme, playing Sesame Street song as a warm up act for Obama. Crowd looks confused."

will.i.am.'s lighthearted throwback to Romney's earlier remarks weren't the only time Big Bird and "Sesame Street" made news Tuesday, as the production team behind the show, the Sesame Workshop, issued an official statement written to both political campaigns — though directed at the Obama campaign regarding their new attack ad that features Big Bird — requesting that any mention of Big Bird in their respective advertising be immediately removed.

One of the reasons they don’t want the focus on Big Bird or Sesame Street is the extreme wealth and the salaries of the CEOs. I think the guy in the costume makes $400,000 a year—definitely a 1 percenter.

The hearings on Libya

What transpired yesterday In Congressional hearings (Libya security and terrorism) which I watched on C-SPAN to avoid the analysis and commercial breaks, shows a much bigger coverup than Watergate. Even the most devoted Obama supporters, if they watched it, should be alarmed.

Now the whole world knows we were lied to about the 9/11 events in Benghazi, and a massive cover-up took place from either complete incompetence or political motives surrounding the coming elections.  No one believes Obama is dumb or Clinton lacks experience, so that only leaves the election.  Watergate was about political power, but no one died.  In Benghazi not only Americans died, but others around the middle east as outrage spread from the lies being told.   Individual careers lower down the ladders are probably now at risk. Charlene Lamb, Deputy Assistant Secretary for International Programs, Bureau of Diplomatic Security, U.S. Department of State,  obviously is one who works by the book and clearly denied additional security when it was requested, but I also noticed that although the men being questioned were for the most part allowed to put their answer in context, she wasn't. "Yes, or No, m'am." Patrick Kennedy, Under Secretary for Management U.S. Department of State,   looked foolish also. Both insist no one influenced their response on the cause--terrorism or video. But Lamb’s own account of the evenings events (ambassador walking outside with a Turkish guest, and there were no disturbances shortly before the attack) pretty well puts a lie to any mob being at fault.

. Although I never cared for him, Dennis Kucinich (D-OH)  was amazing. He was always speaking out against Bush and the war in Iraq and Afghanistan, now he’s really laying it on Obama for extending it. Over a year ago he said Obama’s offenses were “impeachable.”   And that good old boy from Western Penn. also. Made me think of FB conversations on 9/12 where we'd all figured out it wasn't the video. He all but put the buck on Obama's desk.

As Obama, Clinton and Rice continued to go on national/world TV and blame an American video maker, riots happened in many cities (doubt anyone actually saw it, only heard of it). Civilians died and were injured; our embassies and ngo's were put at risk by their careless words and misplaced desire not to speak against Islam.  Plus the media used it to slam Romney, who has been proven right.  The media has egg on their face and blood on their hands.

Romney was right to speak out; but it is Obama who shoots and takes aim later, by announcing and apologizing for a video that had nothing to do with it, information they all say came from “intelligence sources.” Who isn’t clear, but I suspect Clapper will take the fall for Clinton and Obama.

Raddatz the debate judge is Obama’s buddy

Do you think there is a conflict of interest? If Mrs. Romney had a sorority sister working for a Fox News panel, do you think that wouldn't be brought up every night?

"Martha Raddatz (ABC) has a connection with Barack Obama going all the way back to their days at Harvard. They worked on the Harvard Law Review together, and Obama attended her 1991 wedding. Fast forward to the present, and President Obama has appointed Raddatz’s husband, Julius Genachowski, to the Federal Communications Commission. Genachowski is also an Obama campaign bundler, meaning that he is a major fundraiser for the president’s re-election effort. That storyline alone raises questions of corruption and rewarding political supporters with powerful federal posts. Yet ABC insists that Raddatz has no conflict of interest in moderating the debate." PJ Tatler, Bryon Preston

Is anything working for Obama—even Big Bird has said NO!

Yard signs and bumper stickers

This comment was left on another web site.  He didn’t give the name or source, just thought it made some sense.

I think that one reason we aren’t seeing as may Obama bumper stickers and signs is that people don’t want to look like complete idiots. I know I do it, if I see someone with a bumper sticker I try to see who is in the car and I shake my head and give them a look like they are stupidest person I’ve ever seen. I mean would you want people to know that you are so ignorant that you would make a colossal mistake TWICE?

Vandalism is the reason for the lack of Romney gear. Obama supporters are a bunch of thugs. If you don’t agree with them they get you since they have no rational argument.

Big Bird isn’t hurting

It’s interesting to see the hype about mean old Romney clobbering Big Bird.  Children’s [Television] Network could easily stand on its own without any assistance from the taxpayer.   Now it’s bigger than Disney.  Should we be fund raising for Disney?  Sprout was created in 2004—with Comcast and Apax, a global venture capital firm that invests in telecommunications, not unlike the one Mitt Romney was associated with years ago and which is regularly demonized in Obama ads.

Children's Network, LLC, doing business as PBS KIDS Sprout, operates a preschool destination available on television, on demand, and online for kids aged two to five, and their parents and caregivers. The company’s digital channel follows the day of a preschooler from breakfast to bedtime with its interactive programming and original hosted blocks. It also provides on demand services for younger children. The company offers its services through digital cable and satellite television in the United States. The company was founded in 2004 and is based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Children's Network, LLC operates as a subsidiary of Comcast Corporation. http://investing.businessweek.com/research/stocks/private/snapshot.asp?privcapId=24178721

And in July 2012:

Preschoolers will have six new shows to watch on Saturday mornings starting this weekend on NBC.

The Peacock Network will launch “NBC Kids” Saturday, a new three-hour block from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. that aims to address developmental needs of preschool children and to promote healthy lifestyles.

When Comcast acquired NBC Universal last year, it joined forces with Sprout, the first 24-hour channel for kids ages 2-5 and their families.

The channel has been available via Comcast since its 2005 launch, but “NBC Kids” will be the first opportunity to see these shows for families who aren’t customers of the cable provider. http://articles.nydailynews.com/2012-07-05/news/32555218_1_nbc-universal-peacock-network-nbc-kids

And Apax. . . and Sandy Wax, President PBS KIDS Sprout

Apax Partners LLP is a global private equity and venture capital firm, headquartered in London. The company also operates out of eight other offices in New York, Hong Kong, Mumbai, Tel-Aviv, Madrid, Stockholm, Milan and Munich. The firm, including its various predecessors, have raised approximately $35 billion (USD) dating back to 1969. Apax Partners is one of the oldest and largest private equity firms operating on an international basis, ranked the seventh largest private equity firm globally.^{[1] . . .} As of the end of 2007, Apax had invested in approximately 340 companies in all stages of development. . . .  One of the firm's co-founders, Alan Patricof, was an early investor in Apple Computer and America Online (AOL). [Wikipedia]

Sandy Wax, president and general manager of PBS KIDS Sprout, the first 24-hour TV channel dedicated to little ones ages 2-5. “As content creators, we’re constantly challenged to think about how technology changes the ways kids watch and interact with television.” Since launching in 2005, Sprout has generated more than a billion video-on-demand orders while seeing consistent ratings growth. It’s now the number one kids’ TV brand in the country, ahead of both Disney and Nickelodeon. http://www.mainlinetoday.com/Main-Line-Today/October-2012/Power-Women-Sandy-Wax/

Father Maletta’s October 7 sermon on religious liberty

Conservatives are excited. Bump in the polls after the debate. Keep in mind the 6 point bump John McCain got after announcing Sarah Palin as his vice president.  Now is not the time to become complacent.  The lies in the ads here in Ohio (we’re a swing state) are amazing, shameless, and very large. The Chicago Axe  (Axelrod) is doing all he can to destroy Romney’s character.

We still have 30 million Christians not registered to vote. Be sure to listen to Father Maletta's sermon on October 7. It's inspiring.  Because we were created to be in relationship with God, if your candidate is wrong on life and marriage, the other social issues won't matter much.

Scroll down the page and look for October 7.

Obama has failed the Black Middle Class

According to an October 7 article in the Chicago Tribune:

In August, the National Urban League's State of Black America 2012 report found that nearly all the economic gains that the black middle class made during the last 30 years have been wiped out by the economic downturn.

Thanks, Mr. President, for helping out the Black middle class. But don’t worry, they won’t abandon you.  The gates are closed on the plantation run by the Democratic Party.

"The median annual household income for blacks declined by 11.1 percent (from $36,567 to $32,498) from June 2009 to June 2012, according to an analysis of Census Bureau data by Sentier Research. The decline for whites was 5.2 percent and for Hispanics 4.1 percent. Both groups started with higher incomes than blacks."

Conservatives, by nature, mind their own business

"If Obama were to show up in a clown suit and flip-flops, the media narrative would be that his unconventional attire was a daring and brilliant move designed to challenge the status quo and to reveal his human side, or possibly a laudable effort to make politics more interesting to children. ... It should be obvious that America will continue its descent into socialism as long as voters are immersed in liberal ideology in our schools and when they tune in to the news. Elections will determine only the speed of that descent. ... Conservatives never even dream of a day when liberal candidates are peppered with questions by conservative reporters on the nightly news, when network anchors hint darkly at the extremism of liberal candidates, or when schoolchildren celebrate the victory of conservative candidates with songs. Perhaps the fundamental reason, then, for America's precarious state is that conservatives, by nature, mind our own business." --columnist Timothy C. Daughtry

Snoop Dogg thinks “Mitt” is a funny name

One of the reasons Snoop Dogg won't vote for Mitt is he thinks he has a strange name (and he's a Mormon), but he will vote for Obama because Michelle has a fat a**. This is how celebrities influence the vote—of Democrats.  I don’t think it works with Republicans.  With friends like Dogg and Madonna, who gets cheers for claiming there's a black Muslim in the White House (the left says it was a joke, but have you heard it?), no wonder Obama is slipping in the polls. Fans hang on to the wisdom and self-love of these folks and may miss the subtleties.

Oh, and here’s another absurdity.  Obama thinks Romney doesn’t have enough experience to be the president.  I guess because he now has 4 years of total failure, and came in as a light weight.

You lie

President Obama, his Axe and his media service are crying "Liar" about Romney’s performance in the debate. Obama’s claimed a different Romney showed up.  Yeah. They sound like a playground fight. He is such a whiny complainer.  Can’t even take responsibility and say, “I blew it; I’ll do better next time.”

Why was it so awful, terrible and disrespectful when Joe Wilson did that to Obama (and he's been proven correct on Obamacare)? He only yelled in one building.  Obama said it to the entire nation.

Some people say Valerie Jarrett is the real president.  If so, he’s fighting like a little girl.
