We know what we know. We know Obama knew about Benghazi and he knew about Petraeus (whether he knew about all those other crazies, is anyone's guess). What we don't know is what he has promised/threatened Gen. Petraeus. What Petraeus gets to keep of his reputation, rank, wealth, etc. if he goes along with the administration's version of Benghazi in the testimony, which has been set up to satisfy all those right wing nuts in Congress and on the internet. If you believe it, that’s your business, you now own this mess.

The problem is. . .
"[T]he key point about Barack Obama is not that he's a secret Muslim Kenyan Commie or whatever. Whether he was born in Honolulu or Mombasa or Stockholm or up on Planet Zongo, what matters ... is that in his general worldview he is entirely typical and perfectly representative of tens upon tens of millions of Americans. Tuesday's majority confirmed that. They don't need a 'conspiracy': They agree with him. That's the problem." --columnist Mark Steyn
And you know who you are. Shame on you. Abortion—54 million since Roe v. Wade and he takes $15 million from the largest provider to get elected; deficit—a trillion a year since taking office; black unemployment 14.3%; cover-ups since September 11, 2012—too many to count.
If a black man posts on Facebook. . .
“Beware people, you have all just seen happen was the the dirtiest and most corrupt election of our time. Voter fraud, diversion from his failed policies, plans to eliminate our military strength, and creating the biggest national debt of all prior presidents combined.”
Is he a racist?

Fat Cat Obama supporter is cutting workforce in medical devices
"Stryker Corporation has announced that it will close its facility in Orchard Park, New York, eliminating 96 jobs next month. It will also counter the medical device tax in Obamacare by eliminating 5% of their global workforce, an estimated 1,170 positions. Jon Stryker was one of the top 5 donors to Obama's campaign. . . Stryker contributed millions to help Democrat candidates in his home state of Michigan. He also gave nearly $250 million to groups supporting gay rights, transgenderism, and funds social justice projects."
Is anyone organizing protests?
Really? For Secretary of Defense?
Wouldn’t you just feel so safe? Do you have any doubts that Obama is attempting to destroy the country?
Kerry in his winter soldier speech said the U.S. shouldn’t be involved in a civil war. Yet the leader of his party has interfered in about 5 civil wars (aka Arab Spring) to support those Muslim parties with which he agrees. If Obama is right, then LBJ must have been, too.
Did I miss anyone?
The Head of the CIA, the FBI, the military, the Secret Service, the Head of the Department of Defense, the Attorney General, our U.N. Ambassador, the Secretary of State, the Senate--have I missed anyone? Oh yes, our Secretary of the Treasury. Is there anyone else that Obama appointed or touched or commended who hasn't been made to look like our country is run by the Katzenjammer Kids? He has made us the laughing stock of the world.
It just wouldn’t do for there to be any heroes as he drags the country down.
Update: I missed one. Last week, during an Election Day event supporting President Barack Obama in Fountain, Colorado, U.S. Secretary of Interior Ken Salazar threatened a local reporter following a seemingly routine interview and said, “If you set me up like this again, I’ll punch you out,”
Hostess lay offs. Can they save the Twinkies?
My husband’s favorite junk food—Twinkies. Nothing else comes close. Unions have destroyed a lot of businesses. And usually it is the higher paid ones.
“Hostess Brands Inc. is permanently closing three bakeries following a nationwide strike by its bakers union.
The maker of Twinkies, Ding Dongs and Wonder Bread said Monday that the strike has prevented it from producing and delivering products, and it is closing bakeries in Seattle, St. Louis and Cincinnati. The facilities employ 627 workers.
Hostess, based in Irving, Texas, operates 36 bakeries nationwide and has about 18,300 employees. It warned earlier this month that the strike, by about 30 percent of its workforce, could lead to bakery closures.”
Thank you, Mr. President
Now the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,
and before you were born I consecrated you;
I appointed you a prophet to the nations.”
(Jeremiah 1:4-5 ESV)
Paula Priesse says Conservatism works and Liberalism fails
“1) If for the past 25 years California had lower taxes, balanced budgets & tighter immigration would CA residents be better or worse off today?
2) If for these same 25 years Michigan had been a right-to-work state, promoted school choice and developed true enterprise zones, would Detroit be better or worse off today?
3) If 25 years ago we began real entitlement reform would future generations be better or worse off today?
These DC dolts wanting conservatives to be more liberal have never understood two things: 1) Conservatism works 2) Liberalism fails. P”
Only one week after 50% gave him a second term (although that number is being questioned)*
The President is thinking of appointing the veteran who threw away his Vietnam War medals and accused our soldiers of war crimes as our next Secretary of Defense, and the woman that lied to us for weeks saying a "video" caused the Benghazi embassy attacks will probably replace Hillary Clinton as our next Secretary of State.
And here we thought last Wednesday through Friday couldn’t be topped.
*100 precincts in Ohio gave Obama over 99% of the vote—not even Chavez or Saddam Hussein could pull that off.
The Volt vs. the Cruze
“The $40,000 Volt is basically a $17,000 Cruze - with a 500 lb., 25-mile range, eight-hour-to-charge battery. Which is toxic when spent - and costs somewhere between $8,000 and$15,000 to replace. . .
We the Taxpayers own 26% of GM’s stock - and are poised to lose more than $40 billion on the auto bailout.
In no small part because GM - the company in which we are conscripted investors - is wasting tens of millions - and the Feds billions more - tilting at Volt windmills.” Seton Motley
It isn't the sex, it's the blackmail potential and the cover up.
If you haven't watched this story line on TV or movies, it's standard fare for affairs. And David Petraeus, military hero and head of the CIA, was blackmailed--but by the White House. Or attempted blackmail--it looks like he wouldn't play along--although the Benghazi story just keeps growing. Let's see if he'll testify, or if they have something even bigger on him. Meanwhile, you can count on our media to only investigate the sex story.
I've heard 2 interviews today with Newt Gingrich about his new book, but since he was a candidate earlier in the year, he's asked about the current scandal with Petraeus and now another guy (I'm losing track) also connected to one of the women with 30,000 pages of e-mail. I wanted to yell POT KETTLE (Newt is a serial philanderer and had to have 2 marriages annulled to marry his current wife), but I also realize this is not about sex despite how the media plays it. It's about blackmail and a huge cover up and a president who is unfaithful to the people who elected him.
Do I think the Petraeus affair if known before the election would have changed things? No. 1) The general electorate hadn't even heard about Benghazi so they would have said, big deal, some guy was unfaithful to his wife. 2) Nothing would stop an Obama supporter from voting. 3) A Petraeus affair wouldn't get the Christians and Republicans to the polls who already believed it wouldn't matter. What's important is Obama apparently thought it would matter, and he did yet another cover up.
Since Sept. 11, 2012 no one in the administration has told us the truth. But they practiced for 4 years to get it right. Half of the electorate will follow him anywhere.

It’s still about Benghazi, not sex
It has come out that the White House knew about Petraeus’ affair before he was appointed head of the CIA, Sept. 6, 2011. If Obama didn’t know then who on his team is doing the vetting and why wouldn’t they tell him, since so many people seemed to know? And e-mail? What could possibly go wrong? Why did they need something hanging over him and what plans did they have for the CIA?
This cover up has more layers than a rotting onion.
Should Republicans become Democrat-lite to get more votes, or should more Republicans vote?
I’ve been listening to the various excuses the media and conservative talkers are making for the Republican loss, and they range everywhere from women want abortions to Hurricane Sandy. But the most logical ones in my opinion are Republicans lost the 18-29 demographic which has a higher opinion of socialism than capitalism according to a Pew Report, and we lost the minority vote even though they are more likely to have traditional values, and many Republicans, particularly Christians, just didn’t vote.
Here’s the problem. Republicans can’t promise more free stuff—Democrats have that plan covered, and we know that when Reagan passed amnesty in 1986 (IRCA), it actually decreased the number of Hispanics voting Republican. We’ve learned that blacks will vote by party and race, no matter the black candidate or his record.
Black Republicans lost races to far less capable white Democrats with Obama money backing them. Also, those races won by Republicans for Congress or at the state level were won by the conservatives, not the traditional moderate Republicans, who are doing the hand wringing and saying Republicans need to be more like Democrats.
Yes, Rush, Democrats do discuss changing their spots when they lose—Monday Memories
I recall listening to a panel in 2004 moaning about John Kerry losing the presidency. I think Ohio's Ted Strickland, a former Methodist pastor, was on the panel. You know what they came up with? Democrats need to go after the "values" voters, Republican territory. And they did. They went after Evangelicals with that "hope" message in 2008, got Rick Warren and other evangelical pastors even the Vineyard appearing with Obama and surrogates, supported traditional marriage, didn't mention abortion, put Soros funding in the right places and they won.


What has Obama done for blacks?
After the election results showed 95% of blacks voted right down racial lines for Obama, someone observed, "But he hasn't done anything for the black community!" Oh, but he has. What do blacks with an unemployment rate of over 14% need most? A job, or course. What has he done for them? Given them free stuff and guaranteed they will be right where he needs them to be while he's off partying with black celebrities at the tippy top of the 1%.
What is harder to imagine is what has he done for evangelical Christians and Roman Catholics. And yet, many voted for him. Maybe 50% of Catholics. They are voting to destroy the finest social system in the world with a network of schools, hospitals, training programs, social workers through the tearing down of the first amendment rights of all Americans.
Not only have we become America, the land of the takers, but even the givers won’t be allowed to help those in need. The government wants all the power, all the control, all the values. It’s name is statism.
God is pro-choice . . . pro right choice
A New York priest, Father Rutler of Church of our Savior, writes his parish letter without heat and power after the storm, after the election:
"Those who oppose Christ have their day, but it does not last long, and soon they also have their night, when they shrink away into dark corners. In the great challenge of our culture, we are free to choose light or darkness. God is pro-choice: He has given us a free will. But He is only pro right choice. The exercise of choice is not self-justifying. Only the choice of the light of Christ can save us from the darkness of Satan. And what better authority can we have for this than our holy God Himself? “I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse. Choose life, then, that you and your descendants may live” (Deuteronomy 30:19)."

Welcome to the economy of Obama’s second term
“A number of groups, including the Competitive Enterprise Institute, expect a rush of new regulations now that President Obama has won a second term:
CEI expects the EPA to move ahead on delayed rules on everything from greenhouse gas emissions to ozone standards. “Rules from the health care bill and the Dodd-Frank financial regulation bill will also likely make themselves known in the weeks to come," the group said on its website”
A lot was put on the shelf the last two years, frustrating Obama’s leftist base, but as he told the Russians, after his reelection he would have more flexibility.

List of job losses since Obama’s reelection
Obamacare is the law of the land—John Boehner says so. If companies lay off workers, cut hours, don’t expand or close, Oh Well. It’s the will of the people. At least 50% of them.
