HOW OBAMA IS EMBARRASSING THE DEMOCRATS & INDEPENDENTS

cb053113dAPR20130531054511Democrats are blushing. And not because Anthony Weiner is back on Twitter, direct-messaging pretty young girls.

Vice President Joe Biden has long held the title of “Liberal Loose Cannon.” But Biden is such a grand hugger and hand-shaker that Democrats still let him work the crowds, crossing their fingers that he won’t say something like: “In Delaware, the largest growth in population is Indian Americans, moving from India; you cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent… and I’m not joking!”

Slips-of-tongue are easily forgiven (we all make them). But, lately, the Obama administration has been exposed for outright evasion and cover-ups, causing disappointment, anger and embarrassment among independents and Democrats.

Let’s run though how independents and Democrats are expressing their embarrassment in the Obama administration’s lack of transparency:

MADDER THAN HELL AT HOLDER:

Cue King Herod: the press corps wants the head of Attorney General Eric Holder on a metaphorical platter.

On May 23, the front page of the Huffington Post read: TIME TO GO, HOLDER OK’D PRESS PROBE. On Twitter, the Huffington Post editors taunted Holder: “We have a message for Attorney General Holder over at http://huffingtonpost.com,” inviting him to read their scorching assessment of his record.

Obama’s highest law enforcement officer failed to uphold the laws protecting free speech, due process and private property and now he also appears to be lying about his malfeasance.

Holder violated the Constitution and the Department of Justice’s own regulations by approving subpoenas for the phone records of journalists from the Associated Press, the New York Times and Fox News. In the Fox News case, Holder wrongfully classified reporter James Rosen as a “criminal” in order to obtain a 2010 search warrant to tap five lines associated with Rosen. Neither the Associated Press nor Fox News were notified of these probes until afterward, contrary to the law:

“Justice Department regulations call for subpoenas for journalists’ phone records to be undertaken as a last resort and narrowly focused, subject to the attorney general’s personal signoff. Under normal circumstances, the regulations call for notice and negotiations, giving the news organization a chance to challenge the subpoena in court,” explains the New York Times. Plus: “…Congress has forbidden search warrants for journalists’ work product materials unless the reporter committed a crime.”

During a May 15 hearing, Holder said: “With regard to the potential prosecution of the press for the disclosure of material, that is not something that I’ve ever been involved in, heard of or would think would be a wise policy. In fact, my view is quite the opposite.” This is hard to believe since NBC confirmed that Holder approved the Fox News search warrant.

When Holder offered to meet with the press on condition that the meeting be “off the record,” the media said: “Heck no!” Here are a few of the media groups that refused to meet with Holder:

· CNN

· CBS News

· Fox News

· The New York Times

· Associated Press

· Huffington Post

· McClatchy

James Asher, Washington bureau chief for McClatchy, expressed the sentiments of the entire media when he said: “If the government wants to justify its pursuit of journalists, they ought to do it in public.”

The left-leaning press may have helped Obama get elected by boosting his ego, finessing his community organizer resume and overlooking his flaws. But now that Obama is biting the hands that fed him, those hands are slapping him in the face.

LET DOWN BY OBAMA:

On May 9, Democratic strategist Doug Sosnik wrote a 12-page paper on the state of politics in America. He wrote:

“The country is still looking for change that it can believe in.

Since the beginning of Obama’s second year in office, every NBC/WSJ poll has shown that half or more of Americans believed that the country is headed in the wrong direction, at one point reaching as high as 74%. Their most recent April poll found that more than 60% of Americans believe the country is still on the wrong track.”

Obama on Benghazi:

Many members of the mainstream media (think CBS’ Bob Schieffer and Sharyl Attkisson) are showing their frustration over Obama’s refusal tocome clean with the press on the Benghazi talking points. The facts show that the White House crafted inaccurate public talking points and sent U.S. diplomat Susan Rice to deliver this false narrative on five Sunday talk shows. Rice claimed that an obscure You Tube video (not terror) caused the attack that took the lives of four Americans in Benghazi, Libya on September 11, 2012

“There’s no ‘there’ there.” This was the President’s petty response to the press on May 13 regarding Rice’s talking points. He basically insulted serious journalists on both the right and the left, accusing them of creating a “political circus” when in fact he is the ringleader of an act bigger than Barnum and Baily’s.

Obama on IRS targeting:

“Irrelevant.” On May 19, during the heat of the IRS scandal, Obama’s adviser Dan Pfeiffer went on five Sunday news shows and proclaimed that it was “irrelevant” whether the IRS violated the law when targeting the applications of non-profits from tea party groups.

ABC’s left-leaning George Stephanopoulos challenged Pfeiffer: “You don’t really mean the law is irrelevant do you?”

A May 30 Quinnipiac University poll found that President Obama’s job approval rating has slipped significantly among independents, by nine percentage points since May 1. This poll indicates that May’s big three scandals—the IRS-targeting of tea party and patriot groups, the testimonies of Benghazi whistleblowers and Eric Holder’s probes into reporters—have tainted the public’s trust of Obama’s leadership.

Obama used to be the cool kid but he is losing his cool factor. His former Democratic and independent allies are keeping their distance. This situation is simultaneously revitalizing and sad because it would ultimately be best for our country if the President and his administration were trustworthy and reliable.

Whatever our political views, we all want free speech; we all want the Department of Justice to administer justice and we all want our President to tell us the truth. ~ Columnist Kaitie Kieffer, Townhall.com  June 3, 2013

WAKE UP AMERICA!

547331_516029611794028_1371297202_n Both of my Grandfathers watched as their friends and family members died in WW I. My Father and Father in Law served their country and watched as their friends & fellow soldiers died in WW II and Korea. I watched as my friends & neighbors died in Vietnam and my husband & I served our country through campaigns in Panama, Granada, Desert Storm and Desert Shield. None of them died for the Mexican Flag. EVERYONE  died for the U.S. Flag.

In Texas, a student raised a Mexican flag on a school flag pole; another student took it down.  Guess who was expelled? The kid who took it down!  Kids in high school in California were sent home last year on Cinco de Mayo because they wore T-shirts with the American Flag printed on them. Disgusting! Enough is enough!!!

We’ve bent over to appease the America-haters long enough and I’m I’m taking a stand. I’m standing up because the hundreds of thousands who died fighting in wars for this country, and for the U.S. Flag can’t stand up. And shame on anyone who tries to make this a racist message. Let me make this perfectly clear!

THIS IS MY COUNTRY!

Indeed, just because I make this statement it DOES NOT mean that I’m against legal immigration!!!  YOU ARE WELCOME HERE,IN MY COUNTRY!
Welcome! To come through legally:

1.  Get a sponsor!
2.  Get a place to lay your head!
3.  Get a job!
4.
  Live By OUR Rules!
5.
  Pay YOUR Taxes!
6.  Learn the LANGUAGE like immigrants have in the past!!!
7.  Please don’t demand that we hand over our tax dollars and lifetime savings of Social Security Funds to you or pay for you to have a free ride. 

When will AMERICANS STOP giving away OUR RIGHTS???gv020413dAPR20130204044512

We’ve gone so far the other way…
bent over backwards not to offend anyone… but it seems no one cares about the AMERICAN CITIZEN that’s being offended! I am an American, I am a Veteran and I AM OFFENED!!!

WAKE UP America!!! 

TRUTH OR PROPAGANDA?

Obama is not remotely smart enough to keep the Benghazi lies from unraveling. It appears that ABC & CBS News are finally beginning to pay attention to the Benghazi murders by actually covering the recent hearings. Even the BBC seems to have been reporting on this story. (NBC is still ignoring any reference that their anointed leader, Obama and his former SOS, Hillary Clinton had anything to do with anything.) Disgusting!gv050913dAPR20130509054526

I think I’m going to spend the afternoon making a nice dinner for my husband and then sit back, and enjoy watching this pathetic, repulsive administration come unglued ~ While wiping the tears of laughter off my chin! ~ dfh

 

MAINSTREAM MEDIA IGNORES COVERAGE OF GOSNELL MURDER TRIAL

***UPDATE*** MAY 14, 2013

Monster Doctor and BABY MURDERER, Kermit Gosnell was found guilty on three counts of first-degree murder on Monday and under PA law would face the death penalty. Unfortunately, this murderous coward decided to enter into an agreement with the district attorney to NOT file appeals in order that he be granted life in prison. In my opinion, this is a sickening end to despicable crimes this monster engaged in for decades. I would have loved to see someone hold him down, jab a big pair of scissors in his fat neck and snip his spinal cord while he cried & begged for life! Indeed ~ I believe when his “time” does come, GOD will judge him swiftly and send him straight to hell & the devil himself. Another asshole! ~ dfh 

****************************************************************************************

Dr. Kermit Gosnell, the late-term abortionist  found guilty on Monday of murdering three babies who were born alive in his  dirty clinic, has been spared the death penalty after striking a plea  deal.

The doctor, who killed the newborns by  snipping their necks with scissors at the now-shuttered Women’s Medical Society Clinic in West  Philadelphia, will serve two consecutive  life sentences without parole after giving up his right to appeal.

Gosnell will be sentenced on Wednesday in the  death of the third baby, as well as for the involuntary manslaughter conviction  after a patient died at the clinic following a drug overdose.

He will also be sentenced for hundreds of  lesser counts of violating the state’s  ‘informed  consent’ law, which says there must be a 24-hour waiting period  before  an abortion.

******************************************************************************************

There seems to be a media black-out of the news coming out at the trial of monster Kermit Gosnell and his abortion mill house of horrors. The silence from President Obama has also been deafening, however; this writer is not surprised considering his comments about abortion. Then Senator Obama, voted to allow babies born alive in abortion attempts to be treated like medical waste and tossed aside. He voted to allow them to be left to die. Alone and gasping for their first and last breaths, before the newly born life was snuffed out forever.269295_10151534789316469_397064543_n

That’s right. Obama wouldn’t even want a child’s life to be saved were he or she to survive the abortion attempt. He believes that babies who are born alive during an abortion attempt should legally be left to die. In his own words: “As I understand it, this puts the burden on the attending physician who has determined, since they were performing this procedure, that, in fact, this is a nonviable fetus; that if that fetus, or child — however way you want to describe it — is now outside the mother’s womb and the doctor continues to think that it’s nonviable but there’s, let’s say, movement or some indication that, in fact, they’re not just coming out limp and dead…

Whatever your politics, President Obama voted to protect such monsters. A monster who allegedly laughed and cracked jokes while babies were screaming as he cut their necks and killed them, according to testimony. A monster who allegedly kept severed feet in jars, in a house of horrors where a worker testified it “rained fetuses.” A house of horrors where there was no future nor any chance of escape for innocent children delivered into toilets and drowned or stabbed in the neck as their eyes were opening for the first time and discovering the world around them. A world that was never allowed to welcome that miraculous life, and is much darker place because of it.

Citizens are rightly outraged and they are demanding answers. Why is the trial of a “man” accused of slaughtering innocent babies being ignored? Whether you’re pro-life or pro-choice does not matter in this particular case. This is ultimately a matter of preserving and protecting innocent human life. And the media’s obvious indifference to the suffering and killing of born alive infants is difficult to bear. Of course, liberals love to finance and raise awareness about causes that shelter helpless animals or feed starving children in third world countries (two admittedly noble endeavors), but when clear injustices occur at home — and don’t advance their “abortion on demand” narrative — they are conspicuously silent. Why am I not surprised?

More to the point, an infant who can scream and jump outside his/her mother’s womb is a human being — and therefore should unquestionably be granted citizenship rights. This is something one would hope every American with a soul and conscience could agree upon. (Sadly that’s not the case). Meanwhile, any television network that refuses to bring these harrowing details to light (yet unfailingly reminds the public that Republicans are waging a “war on women”) should be treated with contempt. What about the real war on living, sentient human beings? Do they really have nothing to say about that?

A witness testified that she saw at least five aborted babies moving, breathing and in one case,” screeching” after Gosnell performed the late-term procedure. One baby was so big that Gosnell joked “This baby is going to walk me home.” She said she also saw Gosnell use scissors to “snip” the neck of newborns who were moving after the procedure. Another witness testified that she snipped the spines of at least 10 babies during unorthodox abortions at a West Philadelphia clinic and that Dr. Kermit Gosnell and another employee did the same to terminate pregnancies.

The more I read about this trial and the actions of one sick and twisted man — and his cowardly and ultimately weak-kneed staff — the more I realize how far the MSM will go to hide what really goes on behind closed doors in some of the nation’s so-called “abortion” clinics. Thankfully, though, actual journalists aren’t letting them get away with it. ~dfh

The Tax System Explained in Beer

Suppose that every day, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all ten comes to $100. If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this…

The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing. The fifth would pay $1. The sixth would pay $3. The seventh would pay $7. The eighth would pay $12. The ninth would pay $18. The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59.

So, that’s what they decided to do.thCAA7SJSU

The ten men drank in the bar every day and seemed quite happy with the arrangement, until one day, the owner threw them a curve ball. “Since you are all such good customers,” he said, “I’m going to reduce the cost of your daily beer by $20″. Drinks for the ten men would now cost just $80.

The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes. So the first four men were unaffected. They would still drink for free. But what about the other six men ? How could they divide the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his fair share?

They realized that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody’s share, then the fifth man and the sixth man would each end up being paid to drink his beer.

So, the bar owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each man’s bill by a higher percentage  – the poorer he was, to follow the principle of the tax system they had been using, and he proceeded to work out the amounts he suggested that each should now pay.

And so the fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% saving). The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33% saving). The seventh now paid $5 instead of $7 (28% saving). The eighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% saving). The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% saving). The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% saving).

Each of the six was better off than before. And the first four continued to drink for free. But, once outside the bar, the men began to compare their savings.

“I only got a dollar out of the $20 saving,” declared the sixth man. He pointed to the tenth man, ”But he got $10!”

“Yeah, that’s right,” exclaimed the fifth man. “I only saved a dollar too. It’s unfair that he got ten times more benefit than me!” “That’s true!” shouted the seventh man. “Why should he get $10 back, when I got only $2? The wealthy get all the breaks!”

“Wait a minute,” yelled the first four men in unison, “we didn’t get anything at all. This new tax system exploits the poor!”

The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up.

The next night the tenth man didn’t show up for drinks so the nine sat down and had their beers without him. But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something important. They didn’t have enough money between all of them for even half of the bill!

And that, ladies and gentleman, boys and girls, journalists and government ministers, is how our tax system works! The people who already pay the highest taxes will naturally get the most benefit from a tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may not show up anymore. In fact, they might start drinking overseas, where the atmosphere is somewhat friendlier.

OBAMA FINALLY VISITS ISRAEL

holb_c10792320130319120100Benjamin Netanyahu is an intelligent man. He knows Obama is a fraud, and his word is worthless. Obama’s visit to Israel after 5 years in office is just window dressing for his so-called future “legacy”.  How’s that working out Barack?  A “Hail Mary” to try to get your poll numbers back up? Spent too much time filling in your March Madness brackets instead of doing your job and actually governing this country?

In spite of all the calls for spending discipline, the Obama Administration is still wasting billions of dollars, (“That’s “BILLIONS” with a “B”) on their lavish lifestyle and prestige. One of Obama’s biggest flaws is that he likes the glamour and fame associated with the office of the Presidency but he’s the laziest president in my lifetime, and I remember Ike. He has zero original ideas for governing and relies totally on the opinions of everyone else, which unfortunately includes many of his liberal Hollywierd buddies.

I believe he’s familiar with only what he’s read in Neo-Marxist, Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals” which states; “True revolutionaries do not flaunt their radicalism”, Alinsky taught. “They cut their hair, put on suits and infiltrate the system from within”. Alinsky viewed revolution as a slow, patient process. “The trick was to penetrate existing institutions such as churches, unions and political parties.”

Hopefully, America will survive these people, God willing. But Obama’s legacy is already so badly stained, that I doubt even his cult-followers in the controlled national media can repair his image for history. Jimmy Carter can breathe easier now. Another liberal leftist in the White House has finally surpassed Carter in that Obama has proven himself to be even more disgusting and unreliable in his performance as President of the United States than his failed predecessor! ~dfh

“Lest we forget at least an over-the-shoulder acknowledgment to the very first radical: from all our legends, mythology, and history… the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom — Lucifer.”

GOVERNMENT SEQUESTER OF OUR MILITARY

130220obamasequesRGB20130221122650What a disgrace! The Sequester of our military is the liberal’s idea of how they WANT you to think it was all the Republicans idea & their entire fault, however; Obama demanded it, he got it, now he’s against it. The sequester would spread out about $109 billion in cuts per year, every year, for 10 years.

Let me try to explain. Our government (elected officials) have already paid for $24 billion this year, the overall level for 2013 now stands at $85 billion. But there’s another twist: The $85 billion is really more like only $44 billion in actual cuts over the next six months of the fiscal year – because some of the cuts would apply to spending obligations that stretch out over multiple years.  A standard year of sequestration, with $109 billion in cuts, would see about half that total, some $55 billion, come from the Pentagon; in other words; our U.S. Military!  This – is the side of the equation meant to bring Republicans to the negotiating table.  The Democratic priorities under fire are $43 billion in cuts to all other aspects of government – from Education to Social Services & Border Agents, U.S. Port Cargo Inspectors, National Park Rangers, NASA and the National Institutes of Health. The final bit ($11 billion) is made up of something that’s annoying to both parties: a 2 percent reduction in payments to Medicare providers. Indeed, the Congressional Budget Office estimates it will cost 750,000 jobs and lower economic growth by 0.6 percent. That’s because the cuts drain demand from the economy and affect companies that do business with the government.

So ~~ Who is to blame for the sequester?  Short answer: almost everybody. However; the actual mechanics of the sequester – dangling a deficit-reduction goal in front of a team of lawmakers with a harsh consequence for failure – was dreamed up by the White House and most notably by Treasury Secretary nominee Jacob Lew!

(Sigh) But as usual, Obama’s ideas stink~ so his solution is to always blame the “other guy”, ie; blame Bush or blame Republicans. Geez! When will the left-wing media and all their blind followers quit drinking the Kool-Aid & WAKE UP? If you repeat something enough, people start to believe it, especially; bleeding heart, socially progressive liberals who believe in the “Robin Hood” style of government (take from the rich to give to the poor), in other words; I work until I’m 70 & my tax dollars go to support some able-bodied 25 year old who may or may not have ever worked a day in their life but happens to have a “good reason (excuse) ” as to why they can’t earn money themselves! I have no problem helping the indigent poor, disabled, veterans & elderly who legitimately need help but in my opinion, many of the free-loaders & others in our society with lower level intelligence & values, make up a large number of Obama voters! ~ dfh

WHAT’S NEXT; KING OBAMA?

king obama 1Earlier this month, Rep. Jose Serrano, D-N.Y. introduced H. J. Res. 15, a bill that would repeal the Constitution’s 22nd Amendment prohibiting a president from being elected to more than two terms in office, thus potentially paving the way to make Barack Obama president for life. Not surprisingly, the main-stream liberal media — still apparantly kissing Obama’s ass — has not covered this story. The Bill reads as follows:

Introduced in the House of Representatives on 01/04/2013.
[Congressional Bills 113th Congress]
[From the U.S. Government Printing Office]
[H.J. Res. 15 Introduced in House (IH)]

113th CONGRESS
1st Session,  H. J. RES. 15

Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to repeal the twenty-second article of amendment, thereby removing the limitation on the number of terms an individual may serve as President.  IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES  January 4, 2013. Mr. Serrano introduced the following joint resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.

JOINT RESOLUTION

Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to repeal the twenty-second article of amendment, thereby removing the limitation on the number of terms an individual may serve as President. Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled (two-thirds of each House concurring therein), That the following article is proposed as an  amendment to the Constitution of the United States, which shall be valid to all intents and purposes as part of the Constitution when  ratified by the legislatures of three-fourths of the several States within seven years after the date of its submission for ratification:`

`Article–“The twenty-second article of amendment to the Constitution of the United States is hereby repealed.”.  Constitutional Authority Statement By Mr. SERRANO: H.J. Res. 15. Congress has the power to enact this legislation pursuant to the following: This proposed constitutional amendment is introduced pursuant to Article V of the Constitution, and seeks to repeal the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution.

[Congressional Record Volume 159, Number 2 (Friday, January 4, 2013)]  [House] [Page H56]

About Constitutional Authority Statements: On January 5, 2011, the House of Representatives adopted an amendment to House Rule XII. Rule XII, clause 7(c) requires that, to be accepted for introduction by the House Clerk, all bills (H.R.) and joint resolutions (H.J.Res.) must provide a document stating “as specifically as practicable the power or powers granted to Congress in the Constitution to enact the bill or joint resolution.”

The United States is no longer the country it once was. Prior to Franklin Roosevelt, presidents honored the precedent established by George Washington, who – though widely popular – refused to run for a third term of office. Thomas Jefferson followed Washington’s example and foresaw the eventual passage of the 22nd Amendment. “General Washington set the example of voluntary retirement after eight years,” Jefferson wrote in an 1805 letter to John Taylor. “I shall follow it, and a few more precedents will oppose the obstacle of habit to anyone after a while who shall endeavor to extend his term. Perhaps it may beget a disposition to establish it by an amendment of the Constitution.”
Jefferson’s immediate successors, James Madison and James Monroe, also adhered to the two-term principle. This gentlemanly trend continued through Franklin D. Roosevelt’s second term, where; his supporters cited the bankster engineered war in Europe as a reason for breaking with precedent. In the 1944 election, during World War II, Roosevelt won a fourth term, but died in office the following year. The 22nd Amendment was ratified by the requisite number of states on February 26, 1951.
Following the potential repeal of the 22nd Amendment, I predict that Obama’s handlers will exploit the “bankster engineered” economic crisis to push for a third term. In order to achieve repeal of the 22nd Amendment, Serrano’s proposal must be approved by a two-thirds vote of both houses of Congress and ratified by three-quarters of the states’ legislatures. With a record of over $16 Trillion dollar debt, high unemployment, food prices and government programs (unemployment benefits, Social Security, disability insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, veterans’ benefits, education assistance and other cash transfers of government funds to individuals). Henry Kissinger noted once that, “under such conditions the American people will beg for a dictator to lead them out of the wilderness.).
Of course, King Obama will not lead the American people out of the wilderness. He will usher us into a New World Order with its high-tech control grid and a horrific race to the bottom. Welcome to the Socialist States of America!

Hypocrites & Traitors

Al Gore UnAmericanAl Gore & his partners in crime just sold his failing Current TV network to Al-Jazeera for $500 million dollars. Of that, he will personally receive $100 million dollars. I find it hypocritical of Mr. Gore to refuse all offers from American, Glenn Beck of BLAZE TV (because it would be too hard to explain to his many fans) in favor of selling to a Middle Eastern Monarchy build on oil wealth. This man, who was almost President of the United States in 2000, is now selling out to the Emir of Qatar. In my opinion, he has sold out his fellow Americans as well. Fuck Him!!!!

BEWARE OF LIBERALISM

404609_10151482605170830_1041150848_n“The goal of the ‘liberals’ — as it emerges from the record of the past decades — was to smuggle this country into welfare statism by means of single, concrete, specific measures, enlarging the power of the government a step at a time, never permitting these steps to be summed up into principles, never permitting their direction to be identified or the basic issue to be named. Thus, statism was to come, not by vote or by violence, but by slow rot — by a long process of evasion and epistemological corruption, leading to a fait accompli.”
