Healthcare for the poor

We're spending $460 billion on healthcare for the poor. Why was Obamacare needed since so many in that group weren't signed up for what was available for them? Well, it was never about the poor, or better care, or cost savings. It's always been about a take over of a segment of the economy.

Millions of well-paid jobs in "public service" depend on taking care of people in the lowest quintiles. If poverty disappeared tomorrow, we'd have a new class of poor--government bureaucrats.

Roe v. Wade—Norma McCorvey

Jane Roe of Roe v. Wade urges you NOT to vote for Obama because he kills babies in a campaign ad.

“I’m Norma McCorvey, the former Jane Roe of the Roe vs. Wade decision that brought ‘legal’ child killing to America.
“I was persuaded by feminist attorneys to lie; to say that I was raped, and needed an abortion. It was all a lie.
“Since then, over 50 million babies have been murdered. I will take this burden to my grave.
“Please, don’t follow in my mistakes. DO NOT vote for Obama. Obama murders babies.”

Romney got the last word

I'm optimistic about our future. I want to see peace, we have a chance for real leadership, to promote principles of peace and make people confident in their future.... I'll get us on track to a balanced budget. The President's plan will continue to decline take home pay, millions out of work. I'll fix that. I want to get people off food stamps with good jobs, to bring America back we need a president who can reach across the aisle. I was in a state that was 87% Democrat. We worked together... this nation is the hope of the Earth. The greatest generation held a torch for the world to see. Now it's our turn. We'll do it. We need strong leadership with your support. I'll ask for your vote. Together we can maintain America as the hope of the Earth.

Americans died; Obama lied

550519_540583585957089_2003438943_n[1]

I’m checking both CNN and Fox on the unfolding, outrageous Libya story. CNN is covering Obama campaign and whether Hispanics will support him in the numbers of 2008 (he is using the same immigration line). Fox, of course, is covering the important story about the Obama administration abandoning our embassy and how the Americans fought off their attackers for 7 hours.

Public service/ Public servant

Generally, I'm not in favor of changing the definition of well-known terms or words. But PUBLIC SERVANT would definitely be on my list. A "public servant" is someone who works in a government related bureaucracy, either elected or hired, and who makes more than people doing the same work in the private sector, but with fewer hours and better perks. Increasingly, these public servants are unionized and their union CEOs are not only old fashioned goons, but they earn fabulous salaries. What new word do you suggest that's descriptive, clean, and not a pejorative?

Why Romney didn’t need to go there—Libya disaster—during the debate

“Officials at the White House and State Department were advised two hours after attackers assaulted the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, on September 11 that an Islamic militant group had claimed credit for the attack, official emails show.

The emails, obtained by Reuters from government sources not connected with U.S. spy agencies or the State Department and who requested anonymity, specifically mention that the Libyan group called Ansar al-Sharia had asserted responsibility for the attacks.”

Islam's doctrines of deception

Islam's doctrines of deception

To better understand Islam, one must appreciate the thoroughly legalistic nature of the religion. According to sharia (Islamic law) every conceivable human act is categorised as being either forbidden, discouraged, permissible, recommended, or obligatory.

"Common sense" or "universal opinion" has little to do with Islam's notions of right and wrong. Only what Allah (through the Quran) and his prophet Muhammad (through the Hadith) have to say about any given issue matters; and how Islam's greatest theologians and jurists – collectively known as the ulema, literally, "they who know" – have articulated it.

According to sharia, in certain situations, deception – also known as 'taqiyya', based on Quranic terminology, – is not only permitted but sometimes obligatory. For instance, contrary to early Christian history, Muslims who must choose between either recanting Islam or being put to death are not only permitted to lie by pretending to have apostatised, but many jurists have decreed that, according to Quran 4:29, Muslims are obligated to lie in such instances.

Chris Christie offers to send Obama back to Chicago since he can’t change Washington

"You’ve been living inside 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. for the last four years. If you don’t think you can change Washington from inside the White House let’s give you the plane ticket back to Chicago you’ve earned. … If he believes that, then what the hell is he doing asking for another four years?"

Christie says he feels sorry for Obama--he had no experience and then got this huge job--never ran anything in his life. A man wandering around a dark room. If he couldn't figure it out in 4 years, he won't in the next.

On the final debate Monday evening

We were in Indianapolis visiting family, all of whom are on the same page politically, so we had a lot of company and I even stayed up to watch the analysis, which I usually don’t do.  I don’t like having people tell me what I just watched and listened to.  But this was different.  All of us were baffled by some of Romney’s responses either to Obama or the moderator.  However, after listening to people who do this for a living, it made a little more sense.

It wasn’t Romney’s job at this point to win a debate—all he needed to do was hold his own (rising in the polls every day) and keep Obama from trying to look good.  And in that he succeeded.  Hugely.  Obama was childish, petulant, aggressive and argumentative, and Romney was the grown up, with a sense of humor, some humility, and even conceded several places that Obama was doing the right thing (which shocked everyone).  Obama played to his base; Romney to the entire country.

In other areas, like social media--I don't tweet. But I did notice the national news sources pay attention, and the analysis shows terrible racism and race hatred on the part of Obama voters/supporters. This is a very divisive president and his social media supporters demonstrate that.  Democrats have historically divided Americans into voting blocks—men against women; blacks against browns; white rich men against poor white men; those on the plantation against those living free and earning more.  But Obama being a community organizer and from Chicago, really has exploded this system.  Even his big celeb fund raisers say awful things on their tweets.  A bunch of Twits.

In the debate Obama was dropping some code to his base about the 80's (Reagan), 50's (Eisenhower) and 20s (Coolidge). Not bad company for Romney. Those were powerful, successful years for our nation, years of strength and peace, great movement for minorities and poor.  But Obama never learned that in school, he only learned the revised version, the “progressive” version of American history.  And although the debate was supposed to be on foreign policy, Romney kept bring everything back to the economy (on Cherry Lake Drive we were yelling about that, too).  Obama played into his hands. Yes, maybe you need to look closer at Romney.

We (watching the debate) were all shocked that Romney didn’t lay him out flat on Libya, because each day gets worse and worse. But by skirting the issue, he gave Obama no platform to continue lying.  Now it has come out that our brave, concerned President was watching the terror in real time,  then went to bed to rest up for a busy campaign event with Beyonce and Jay-Z while our embassy was under attack and no reinforcement were ordered by him.  All Romney needs to do to attack Obama on Libya is let people read the newspaper (although that won’t convince his staunchest followers).

Obama watched the Benghazi attack in real time

He didn’t call for help, and he went to bed.  Then the next day he left for partying and campaigning with Jay-Z and Letterman. Then for 2 weeks he lied to the American public about what happened and how much he knew.   If you reelect him and the investigation continues, I think this is far more serious than Watergate or lying about sex.

Obama destroyed a life time friendship

They had been friends for years—one a Democrat, one a Republican.  But it never mattered before Obama. In 2008 he told his friend what he thought of Obama.

Over the past four years, my friend has lost about everything. His real estate business is defunct. He has sold almost all his toys, including a classic car he had been refurbishing for about eight years. He sold his motorcycles and pretty much has gone into survival mode. He had been an investor in real estate, and he lost all his other properties. And I'd be willing to bet he has even lost the dream house he had acquired years earlier.

I can only imagine what his feelings for Obama are now.

Like the followers of Jim Jones, many Obama followers are finally being made to drink their cyanide-laced Kool-Aid. I wonder if people like my friend have changed their dogmatic stance on the stranger who convinced them to ruin amazing friendships and who caused major rifts in their families.

Obama has been bad not just for politics. Obama has been bad for things that are much bigger than politics. Maybe Obama's election loss will heal the nation in ways that mean much more. What a legacy.

Our Abortion Champion President

198702_377196909022582_657839639_n[1]

Almost 30% of all abortions in U.S. are done by Planned Parenthood; in 2009 its clinics across the nation brought in $404.9 million in revenues. Its CEO earns over $400,000 a year. Why does this "non-profit" need our tax money to kill babies? It's doing so well.

To call abortion "health care" is like calling the electric chair, shock treatment.  40% of abortions kill black babies.

Architects drink the government project Kool-aid

We often see the phrase, "the continuing uncertainty over the federal budget." This means both the failure of the Democratic controlled Senate to pass a budget the last 3 years, and the distrust in the private sector over the rising costs to do business under Obamacare and Obamanomics. When I see that almost 60% of architects support Obama, I realize they took too many art courses in college and not enough business and American history.  And that they are increasingly dependent on government projects, therefore some businesses think Obama's flailing might accidently touch them, although hundreds of firms have closed during his reign.

Karlsberger in Columbus in June 2011 “in a statement on its website said it closed its doors after 83 years in business. Karlsberger is the fourth-largest architectural firm in the region with $18 million in 2009 billings and more than 50 local staff members, the latest figures available, according to Columbus Business First research

The few large firms left in Columbus took their best staff, then let go some long time employees.

Do you know another CEO, Director, boss, or president who would have been this casual about a tragedy in his firm?

Obama campaign borrows from BofA

“Obama For America took out a $15 million loan from Bank of America last month, according to the campaign’s October monthly FEC report. The loan was incurred on September 4 and is due November 14, eight days after the election. OFA received an interest rate of 2.5% plus the current Libor rate.” (LIBOR stands for the London interbank offered rate and is the rate of interest that banks charge to lend money to each other.) 

Also the bank contributed $20 million toward the cost of the Democrat National Convention earlier this year.

I can’t understand it.  The O-Team were raffling off dinners with the President.  Didn’t that raise enough money?

How to lower the price of gasoline—immediately

“Abolishing the ethanol mandate requiring ethanol to be blended with gasoline at the pump or waiving the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) would: (1) lower gasoline prices by millions of dollars; (2) result in billions of miles of free travel annually; (3) prevent millions of tons of additional carbon dioxide from being emitted into the air; and (4) improve national security and the energy picture since it is impossible for US ethanol to ever replace foreign oil imports. PolitiFact was asked to fact-check this but would not do so; therefore, it must be true.”

Are you rational enough to vote?

If party designations were removed and you could not see the color of the candidates' skin, and you could only list accomplishments, how would you vote? 

One candidate has 1) expanded wars without approval of Congress, 2) grown debt to 16 trillion,  3) flipped on marriage after posing as traditional in 2008 to get the evangelical vote, 4)  signed on for embryonic stem cell research after it's been proven unnecessary, 5)  solicited support from the largest abortion provider in the country,  6) supports killing a baby born alive if abortion was intended, 7) covered up a terrible mess right before the election, 8) designated the Ft. Hood massacre as "workplace violence" which denies the victims and families special benefits,  9) has spent more time on comedy shows and golf courses than all the other presidents combined.

The other candidate hasn't done any of that but has been 1) a successful businessman, 2) a governor and is 3) wealthier that the other guy (who's only worth $11 million) and 4) has a plan (not terribly clear) to restore the economy.

Remember—no party, no skin color information.  How would you vote?  How rational is your decision?

Obama needs to apologize to the Ft. Hood survivors and families of victims

The U.S. Department of Defense has ruled the Nov. 5, 2009, shooting a case of workplace violence.

In “The Truth About Fort Hood,” victims express their frustration at the government’s designation, Stars and Stripes reports.
