Elizabeth Warren and the Frauds of Diversity | FrontPage Magazine
Yet she is supposed to be the virtuous, transparent one.....HA!
For anyone familiar with the American university and its gospel of multicultural diversity, the revelation that Massachusetts Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren exploited her 1/32 Cherokee ancestry to pass as a minority is a dog-bites-man story.

The Masked Face of Marxism....
So basically terrorist cowards????
Because the Black Blockers so carefully hide their identities, they are often able to engage in criminal behavior—most notably property destruction—with impunity. In instances where they are pursued by police—whom they contemptuously regard as nothing more than “guard dogs for the rich”—fleeing Black Bloc protesters typically shed their dark coverings and blend into the crowd.

Who Is the Real Sarah Palin?
Media and Political Permanent Class Attempt to Rewrite 2008 Election.....
THIS is why I don't TRUST in anyway the establishment GOP. It's why I have struggled to re-register as a Republican. They'll get my vote, time and money...what little I have....
However, my allegiance they have done nothing to deserve other than "Not being Obama"....some resume.......The "Un-enrolled" may remain after my name for good.... For example, Sara Fagen, George W. Bush’s political director, told the Associated Press, “There's one thing the people in the Republican establishment agree on: There was clearly not a thorough thought process or vetting that went into the selection of Sarah Palin. They didn't ask the fundamental questions or spend enough time with her...”.
Allen West Targets Liberals & Rallies Conservatives In Fort Lauderdale, Florida.....
I LIKE it...perhaps Mitt's campaign music should be the "Jaws" theme......
In discussing these issues, the congressman encouraged the audience to take part in the ideological battlefield that will inevitably determine who controls the nation’s political landscape.
“You must be like sharks that smell blood in the water and you must attack,” he told the audience. “Ladies and gentlemen, you don’t win on defense. You win on offense.”

If we give into this...I quit.....cause we're done as a country.......REALLY!?!? Appropriate clothing while watching these clowns would be a GOD BLESS AMERICA shirt.......
The judge ignored her request, the Guardian reported, but Bormann kept up the call Sunday.
“When you’re on trial for your life, you need to be focused,” she said, according to Fox.

Report: Secret U.S. Program Releases Dangerous Insurgents in Return for Pledges of Peace ........
Really? We ask them to play nice and what? They only decapitate one out of 10?
While officials would not say exactly how many prisoners have been released under the program, they concede: “Everyone agrees they are guilty of what they have done and should remain in detention. Everyone agrees that these are bad guys. But the benefits outweigh the risks.”

Paul Ryan: Obama's 'Julia' website 'creepy' and 'demeaning'....
“It suggests that this woman can’t go anywhere in life without Barack Obama’s government-centered society. It’s kind of demeaning to her,” Ryan said during a constituent meeting in Wisconsin, the National Review reports. “She must have him and his big government to depend on to go anywhere in life. It doesn’t say much about his faith in Julia.”

Megyn Kelly Cracks Joke About Elizabeth Warren Native American Status: ‘How’ ..........
Happy Friday!
“She is more than welcome to come on the program and I already know exactly how I would begin it,” Kelly said. She then raised her hand, palm out, and said, “how.” Chuckling, she then threw it over to Smith.
“Oh my god, Megyn. Are you kidding me?” Smith asked jokingly. “You’re out of your mind.”

The 86 million invisible unemployed.....
There are far more jobless people in the United States than you might think.
While it's true that the unemployment rate is falling, that doesn't include the millions of nonworking adults who aren't even looking for a job anymore. And hiring isn't strong enough to keep up with population growth.
As a result, the labor force is now at its smallest size since the 1980s when compared to the broader working age population.

Labor Force Shrinks In April, Participation Rate At 31-Year Low; Disability Ranks Grow.....
Sure makes you feel warm & fuzzy about the future of America...doesn't it?
The civilian labor force shrank in April by 342,000 workers, and remains below where it stood when the economic recovery started 34 months ago, according to data released Friday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Had the labor force not declined, unemployment would have been 8.3% in April, instead of the 8.1% reported.
That same month, more than 225,000 workers applied for Social Security disability benefits, and nearly 90,000 were enrolled, according to new data from the Social Security Administration.

Panetta: Climate change a national security threat....REALLY? This is all you have?
Let's see...we have REAL human beings trying to destroy America and we are calling global warming a terrorist threat....good lord.....put lipstick on that pig!
"The area of climate change has a dramatic impact on national security," Panetta told the Environmental Defense Fund last night. "Rising sea levels, severe droughts, the melting of the polar caps, the more frequent and devastating natural disasters all raise demand for humanitarian assistance and disaster relief."
The Defense Secretary must have missed Examiner Columnist Mona Charen's recent piece on how symbols of global warming aren't working out the way environmentalists predicted.

Son of Soros, 1-Percenters Fuel Wisconsin Recall.....
The Soros Family has NO problem exploiting America's Capitalist system to make their millions....but do everything thing to tear it down....to what end?
Rebuild it in their likeness...?!...that should give you chills Folks! The Recall Scott Walker campaign has been leading the way with its negative ads against the Republican governor. The group of funders behind it is well known to Wisconsin and especially to the elite liberal establishment in the state. And at a time when the left is railing against “the 1 percent,” it won’t be a surprise to many to learn that the organization itself is largely comprised of 1 percenters like Jonathan Soros, son of the hedge fund billionaire.
Enough Already: Contempt Process Begins Against Holder on Fast and Furious.....
ABOUT DAMN TIME! Read Katie Pavlich's book "Fast & Furious"...trust me, you will be.....
The draft consists of a briefing paper and 48 pages that will be distributed to Democrats and Republicans.
According to the documents the Department of Justice has given “false denials, given answers intended to misdirect investigators, sought to intimidate witnesses, unlawfully withheld subpoenaed documents, and waited to be confronted with indisputable evidence before acknowledging uncomfortable facts.”

The White House claimed that the inclusion of Stein had been a mistake, the result of an earlier draft of the proclamation released in error. However, Algemeiner preserved a screen shot of the original proclamation, which remained on the White House website after the new press release had been drafted.

Christians & Veterans Rally In Support of Woonsocket Cross & Memorial | Video | TheBlaze.com
These "Groups" ...these cowards take on anyone they think they can wear down financially. Municipalities are giving in to them all across the Fruited Plain because their budgets are on life support.
They are utilizing the Recession to make as many inroads as they can into our lives..into our beliefs. GOOD FOR THESE FOLKS!
If I'd of known...I'd of brought more people down to stand with them against these nameless faceless cowards that want to destroy our way of life. You don't like the Cross....look away!
On Wednesday, American flags were ferociously waving and patriotic songs rang out, as Christians, veterans and other supporters of an embattled WWI and WWII memorial in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, assembled in support of the structure.
Last week, The Blaze first reported about the secular Freedom From Religion Foundation’s (FFRF) demand that the monument, which includes a cross, be removed from public lands. In response, an estimated 1,500 people assembled against atheists’ demands and in support of the monument.

From $2,000 dress to $1,000 skirt, Michelle Obama's lavish Hawaii wardrobe revealed.....
I have NO problem with her doing this.....NONE. However DO NOT play the Class Card with the Romney's. You are BOTH successful. And as such...are reaping the rewards....stop being disingenuous.....and I'm being kind.
Michelle Obama successfully managed to rile U.S. taxpayers with her lavish $4m family jaunt to Hawaii this Christmas.
But it seems her expensive taste has not stopped there, as her vacation wardrobe has proved to be equally lavish.
Though the First Lady has only been spotted on a couple of occasions since arriving in Kailua, Oahu, some sartorial analysis of her fashion choices has revealed that her outfits have been consistently high-end.

After Ignoring Michelle Obama’s Expensive Wardrobe For Years, Lib Media Is Suddenly Interested in Ann Romney’s Pricey Clothes ......
Last month at the Kids’ Choice Awards, Michelle Obama wore an outfit designed by New York-based, uber-expensive designer, Wes Gordon. His clothing commands prices in the thousands of dollars and can only be found in the elite stores of the super wealthy. If you enjoy spending more than $4,000 on a pair of shorts…yes that is three zeroes after the comma…then you might like this little jacket from one of Michelle Obama’s favorite designers. It’s a steal for only $2,250. Of course, we never heard one peep out of the Liberal mainstream media on Michelle Obama’s high-priced clothing.
Bill Ayers Tells University of Oregon Students that America’s Game is Over and a New World is Coming.....
DANGER! Will Robinson-DANGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The great challenge for our generation [is] to find a way not just to live differently as individuals, but to find a way to think differently about what work means, to think differently about citizenship means, to think differently about what it means to be a ‘citizen of the world.’ One of the great dangers that we live in right now, is I don‘t think there’s any question, and I don’t think any of you would question, that the American Empire is in decline–that economically, and politically, and in some ways culturally, that we are in decline. And yet, the United States remains the most powerful, weaponized military system the Earth has ever known.

Empowering Individuals or Bureaucrats? Paul Ryan
One of the ONLY Politicians worthy of our time and consideration in DC these days.
In March, as the Supreme Court considered the constitutionality of President Obama's partisan health care law, the American people saw an event that could mark the end of bureaucrat-controlled health care. At the same time, just across the street in the halls of Congress, they witnessed a powerful reaffirmation of the American Idea as the House of Representatives passed the Path to Prosperity—a budget for the federal government.

Irony—Police Shut-down Event Promoting U.S. Constitution. ......
At first the Allegan police chief police indicated he shut down the event because of threats to one of the speakers, Kamal Saleem; however, shortly thereafter, the chief admitted to a reporter that there was no specific threat to the event and no real danger at all. In fact, no specific threats of violence relating to the event were received by the City of Allegan, its police department, the Allegan Public School District or Allegan Public High School.
Police gave as their reason, the appearance of one of the featured speakers, Kamal Saleem, a former Muslim terrorist who converted to Christianity. Saleem has spoken at numerous high schools and universities, Christian churches and Jewish temples across the nation. He has also spoken at the U. S. Air Force Academy, Michigan’s State Capital, and Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan. At no time before the Allegan event or afterwards has an event where he has spoken been shut down by law enforcement.

MoveOn’s Quest to Outlaw the Term “Illegal Immigrant” ....
Funny how the word "Illegal" ONLY pertains to "Legal" citizens and THEIR actions....not of those actually BREAKING OUR LAWS!
Just when you would think that the far Left Obama booster organization MoveOn.org could not get any more ridiculous, it sinks to ever lower levels of absurdity. The latest example involves MoveOn’s push to render the phrase “illegal aliens” or “illegal immigrants” hate speech.

The Old Time GOP isn't much better than the current Liberals running the show...they go along to get along...it's in THEIR best interest...not ours...something they seem to forget....something WE need to remind them of....
The Club For Growth, the Madison Project, and scores of other free market conservative groups are backing Dr. Keadle. We have the opportunity to pick this seat up from a Democrat and, even better, replace that Democrat with a conservative willing to stand up to his own party against its big spending too.
Or . . . we can settle for another yes man for Eric Cantor.

Author Stephen King Slams the GOP & Calls for Higher Taxes on the Wealthy In Virulent Op-Ed......
Pay more yourself, Steve...
I don't think the Government is doing a good job spending our cash...so we'll handle it ourselves. But Have AT It, Mr. King. NOBODY is topping YOU from writing a check now are they? You and your wife are generous...AMEN.
However you cannot legislate common sense and decency on EITHER side.....Author Stephen King is known for his horror stories that hold the potential to scare the pants off of readers. But now, he’s using his fame and editorial talents to target more specific subsets of the American public — the so-called 1 percent and conservatives who tout small-government tax policies. In a new article for The Daily Beast on Monday entitled, “Tax Me, for F@%&’s Sake!,” the famed author sounds off on his penchant for increased taxes for the wealthy.

"Well that's great stuff. I was so proud of the President there, I must say. This has nothing to do with partisanship; this is the Commander-in-Chief meeting with the troops," Chris Matthews gushed on his program today.

Three months ago, CBS 5 caught Solyndra tossing millions of dollars worth of brand new glass tubes used to make solar panels. Now the bankrupt solar firm, once touted as a symbol of green technology, may be trying to abandon toxic waste.

Forster and Rostami wondered if the officer who answered their call treated all crime victims the same way. When Rostami, who admits she was hysterical, tried to describe what had happened, she says the officer told her to shut up and get in the car. Both said the officer did not record any names of witnesses who stopped to help. Rostami said the officer told them the attackers were "probably juveniles anyway. What are we going to do? Find their parents and tell them?"
The officer pointed to public housing in the area and said large groups of teenagers look for trouble on the weekends. "It's what they do," he told Forster.

Ben Franklin would say our online liberty is the same as liberty itself .....
I’ve been deeply involved in issues of America’s cyberdefense for years. The difference between that work, and what I’m working on this month, is that my current project has me thinking deeply about the totality of the cyberthreat, and what attacks and breaches mean to America as a whole.
So let me cut to the chase. No matter what anyone tells you, no matter what any well-meaning blogger or so-called security “expert” might post, the cyberthreat is real. Very, very real.

Ethics office clears Bachus of insider trading.......
Just because he has been "excused"...doesn't mean it's right. Read "Throw them all Out".
The case against Bachus was the first of its kind involving a member of Congress. It came at a time of intense public and media scrutiny of congressional ethics, with the House and Senate passing legislation this year to tighten rules against insider trading by lawmakers. President Obama has signed the measure into law.

During his speech LaHood commented that the transportation department is studying the impact of hands-free devices quite closely, according to the Reuters article. Apparently, LaHood has personally called major automotive CEOs to urge them to “think twice” before putting too many Internet-connected devices into cars, the article reported.
This is nowhere near a law, yet, but it’s another example of how innovation often outpaces the ability of society and human behavior to manage it.

Maybe no housing rebound for a generation.....
The Housing market is likely to remain weak and may take a generation or more to rebound, Yale economics professor Robert Shiller told Reuters Insider on Tuesday.
Shiller, the co-creator of the Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller home price index, said a weak labor market, high gas prices and a general sense of unease among consumers was outweighing low mortgage rates and would likely keep a lid on prices for the foreseeable future.
"I worry that we might not see a really major turnaround in our lifetimes," Shiller said.

Obama has held more fundraisers than previous five Presidents combined as he visits key swing states on 'permanent campaign' ....
Barack Obama has already held more re-election fundraising events than every elected president since Richard Nixon combined, according to figures to be published in a new book.
Obama is also the only president in the past 35 years to visit every electoral battleground state in his first year of office.
The figures, contained a in a new book called The Rise of the President’s Permanent Campaign by Brendan J. Doherty, due to be published by University Press of Kansas in July, give statistical backing to the notion that Obama is more preoccupied with being re-elected than any other commander-in-chief of modern times.

“The message from the man who controls the Justice Department (which can indict you), the SEC (which can fine you), and the IRS (which can audit you), is clear: You made a mistake donating that money,” Strassel reports.
We cannot stress enough that these donors are private citizens.
“These are people like Paul Schorr and Sam and Jeffrey Fox, investors who the site outed for the crime of having ‘outsourced’ jobs,” Strassel writes.

Tough federal legislation is the only way to deal with what he called a "national epidemic," he said at a distracted-driving summit in San Antonio, Texas, that drew doctors, advocates and government officials.

Michelle Obama: "Fantasy" Is To Walk Out WH "And Just Keep Walking".......
Good Bye....!!!!!!!!!!!
Funny how this is my fantasy too! However it's you and Barack doing t!!!! "It is hard to sneak around and do what you want," Michelle Obama said today. "I have done it a couple of times. But you know one fantasy I have, and the Secret Service they keep looking at me because they think I might actually do it, is to walk right out the front door and just keep walking."
People using income tax refund to buy guns....
Forget about paying the bills with your tax refund, some are heading to the gun shop instead. Over at Shoot Straight employees say more people are taking a shot at a owning a gun, thanks to Uncle Sam, "This is tax time and people are getting their tax returns or they're expecting to get their money back and they take a punch and make a purchase.
‘Justice for Trayvon’—with Bricks and Bats.....
And this has been judged "not" a hate crime....
Armed with brass knuckles, bricks, chairs, bats, and steel pipes, some 20 African Americans stormed the house and brutalized Owens on the front porch. According to one witness, “He was laying on the ground full of blood. I mean, it was horrible. His head, everything. Blood was pouring from his head, both sides. And his whole body was drenched in blood.” As the assailants left the scene, one of them looked back at the helpless victim and shouted: “Now that’s justice for Trayvon!”

A Nobody With No Audience Gets Noticed by Mitch McConnell ....
I grew up thinking Mitch McConnell was a right wing warrior. It turns out he’s just a typical Washingtonian appropriator who has presided over a massive expansion of the welfare state doing not much more than issuing bold platitudes as he cuts deals to expand government spending and along the way made some major tactical and strategic blunders that groups like ACORN were able to thrive.
President Obama: ‘encouraging’/planning to tax into oblivion start-up businesses.......
For the morbidly curious, here’s the situation: there’s a bill in Congress that would freeze student loan rates. It’s stalling because, well, that’s going to cost us $5.9 billion and the money’s got to come from somewhere. So the N-dimensional geniuses over at the White House went to Congressional Democrats and found six billion worth of pork to cut… Oh, I am quite the comedian! They’re Democrats: they never cut spending. No, what Obama and the rest of his merry crew did instead was come up with a plan to generate the revenue via increased restrictions for S Corporations re: eligibility for payroll tax exemptions.
Senate Dem: Save the US Postal Service with Wind Farms .......REALLY?!
I think the "Boldest" thinking the PO could do is realize it's business model is collapsing. Technology is running circles around it....
As the potential collapse of the United States Postal Service looms on the horizon, one Senate Democrat has proposed an unusual plan to solve the crisis.
Senator Tom Carper (D-DE) looks to harvest the electricity that windmill farms produce in order to power a new fleet of battery-operated postal delivery vehicles, replacing the previous '25 to 30 years old' 'dilapidated' vehicles.
The Senator admits the idea is “out there” but concludes that "we need to be thinking boldly, and the postal service needs to do that"

First algae, now spinach to be green energy source ........
It's not easy being Green.....
The EPA awarded a $90,000 grant over the weekend to Vanderbilt University students "who designed a biohybrid solar panel that substitutes a protein from spinach for expensive silicon wafers that are energy intensive to produce, and is capable of producing electricity."

Speaker at ‘Occupy the Justice Department’ in Washington DC: If I’m Arrested, ‘I Want You To Start Killing M*****F*****!’ ....Nice......
Rapper Jay Sun began the rally with a violence-laden plea: ”I would just ask, if I ever go locked up or incarcerated, please don’t march for me. Don’t rally for me. I want you to start killing Mother F***ers!”
He went on to explain, “It seems funny, but that’s the only thing a Government would listen to,” adding, “I would want people who would effectively get the task at hand done.”

Social Security Faces Unfunded Liability of $8.6T, or $73,167.83 Per Household.....
The unfunded liability is the amount that has been promised in benefits to people now alive that will not be funded by the tax revenue the system is expected to take in to pay for those benefits. (The Social Security trustees calculate the unfunded liability for a period of 75 years into the future, from 2012 to 2086)
Do Higher Taxes Slow Economic Growth?
Of course higher taxes would slow economic growth. There are no ifs, ands, or buts about it.
Diamond and Saez start out by arguing that, because the share of income earned by the top 1 percent of earners has doubled since the 1970s, and since they pay a lower tax rate today than they did then, we should tax them more heavily. Notice the disconnect at the outset: higher income vs. lower tax rates.

FFRF Threatens Lawsuit Over Firehouse Cross In Woonsocket, Rhode Island .....
RI hadn't better cave!!!!!!!!!!
The Christian cross, part of a World War I memorial that was built in Woonsocket back in 1921, is causing a great deal of angst among secularists who stand firmly opposed to its presence on public property. Taking on even more significance beyond WWI, the monument was re-dedicated back in 1952 to honor three fallen WWII soldiers who lived in the area and has since been a public statement of remembrance.

Exclusive: Senior U.S. General Orders Top-to-Bottom Review of Military's Islam Training.....
Wonder if "They" scrubbed the part of their manual that says "Cut their heads off".....?
The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff on Tuesday ordered the entire U.S. military to scour its training material to ensure it doesn’t contain anti-Islamic content, Danger Room has learned. The order came after the Pentagon suspended a course for senior officers that was found to contain derogatory material about Islam.

SURPRISE! Green Activists Trash Park on Earth Day.....
Getting Out of Dodge....
It has been said that the greatest question you will ever ask when searching for the meaning of life is, “Why am I here?” It can also be said that the worst question you could ever ask when faced with a lethal encounter is, “Why am I here?” All too often though this is precisely what is asked by the soon-to-be victim of violence. Why is this? The answer is quite simple: they never saw it coming.

GE Filed 57,000-Page Tax Return, Paid No Taxes on $14 Billion in Profits....
I never tire of printing this story....considering we LOST a fortune and paid over $5000.00 in taxes.....interesting....
"I asked the GE tax officer, 'How long was your tax form?'" Ryan said. "He said, 'Well, we file electronically, we don't measure in pages.'" Ryan asked for an estimate, which came back at a stunning 57,000 pages. When Ryan relayed the story at the townhall meeting in Janesville, there were audible gasps from the crowd.

Researchers Spot First Documented Adult, All-White Orca Off Eastern Russian Coast ....
Obviously a Racist.............
A research team has recently discovered what they believe may be the orca version of Moby Dick. Spotted off the eastern coast of Russia, the scientists saw what is being considered one of the first all-white, adult male killer whales ever documented — not to mention caught on film.

Obama Selects Samantha Power to Chair Atrocities Prevention Board ....Uh Oh......
Executive Orders & Obama's over-reach....
“Real News” panelist Buck Sexton pointed out Monday that while the use of executive orders is not new, President Obama’s actions are especially alarming and contrast previous Administrations for they do not fall under war powers, and only used to implement domestic legislation that cannot pass in Congress.
“It‘s not ’this is an executive order to do something during a time of war,‘ it’s ‘this is an executive order to do something that I explicitly’–and I say this as the chief executive–’cannot get through Congress, therefore I’m going to find another way to get it on my own,’” Sexton said.

Weeping four-year-old girl accused of carrying a GUN by TSA officers after she hugged her grandmother while passing through security .......
We terrorize the kids and grandmothers...but heaven forbid we ever profile someone who just MIGHT be trouble....I despise flying now and try to do so less and less....
Of all the many complaints about airport security and the TSA, one of the most common is that they make little distinction between plausible security threats and passengers unlikely to be doing anything wrong.
And a recent incident in Wichita, Kansas has reinforced that argument, as a four-year-old girl was apparently subjected to a humiliating ordeal after she hugged her grandmother while she was waiting in line.
The girl was accused of having a gun and declared a 'high security threat', while agents threatened to shut down the whole airport if she could not be calmed down.

The Shocking Truth of Obama's Unemployment...
Ted Nugent to King George: And all the King's Men can Drop Dead....
No one knew what lay across that intimidating body of water long ago. Nobody knew if the supplies and rations loaded on the big wooden ships would sustain them for their long, uncertain voyage, or if they would even make it alive.
But everyone did know that the risk could not be any worse than the worthless, meaningless life with which they struggled under the vicious rule of kings, Emperors, slavedrivers, despots and tyrants. The “born a serf, always a serf” status quo of humanity was simply wrong, and powerful instincts and intellect knew damn well that it was not why men were born.

Bank of America Allegedly Drops McMillan Gun Company Over Political ‘Risks’ .......
Funny name...Bank of America...they are anything BUT....
McMillan Group International, a company that manufactures firearms and accessories, is claiming that Bank of America asked them find another bank for “political” reasons.
The company, whose different entities have been doing business with Bank of America for more than twelve years, says it has never made a late payment, and never bounced a check.

Trumka’s Big Bucks .....More Hypocrisy on Parade...
In an email announcing the new AFL-CIO Executive PayWatch website, the leader of the nation’s largest union organization encourages members to fight excessive executive salaries. But in doing so, he risks training fire on his own impressive pay package.

Absolute Power....
Governments are not always overthrown by direct and open assaults. They are not always battered down by the arms of conquerors, or the successful daring of usurpers. There is often concealed the dry rot, which eats into the vitals, when all is fair and stately on the outside. And to republics this has been the more common fatal disease. The continual drippings of corruption may wear away the solid rock, when the tempest has failed to overturn it.
Twitter lynch mob: George Zimmerman is out on bail? Let’s kill him! ......
GM to build 2013 Cadillac XTS in China this year .......
Funny....OK for Government Motors to "out-source"...but not for anyone else....
"Introducing the XTS is part of our strategy of adding one new model per year to our Cadillac lineup in China through 2016 to address the needs of luxury car buyers nationwide," GM Chairman and CEO Dan Akerson said in a statement.

Shift on Executive Powers Let Obama Bypass Congress .......
Imagine what this country will look like if we give him 4 more unfettered years to circumvent the Constitution?
One Saturday last fall, President Obama interrupted a White House strategy meeting to raise an issue not on the agenda. He declared, aides recalled, that the administration needed to more aggressively use executive power to govern in the face of Congressional obstructionism.

Occupy Wall Street Plans May Day Bridge and Tunnel Blockade in NYC......
Funny....that day I'll be getting up at 4:00 AM to maintain my admission into the 1% Club...not that I make that kind of money....but that is why I've been battling to stay in business for 30 years....so I can someday become a member!
That's what America is all about.
Will one of you clowns shut me down while we all work 60-80 hours here?
Will you shut down our paychecks?
None of the 1% will be affected....just the people you "say" you support. Just the hard working - pull yourself up by the bootstraps - American workers...In addition to the planned transit blockade, Occupy is rallying factions across the country in solidarity with general strikes around the world: “For the first time, workers, students, immigrants, and the unemployed from over 115 U.S. cities will stand together for economic justice.”
The global breadth of the protests comes alongside recent Occupy efforts to tie itself to a long history of protest and social upheaval, including the NYC Fiscal Crisis of 1975:
Should Fannie and Freddie Be Eliminated?
For the past several years, it’s not been an uncommon sight in Anytown, USA, to drive down the street and see home after home for sale after going through foreclosure. They are the still-lingering hangover from the housing crash that began in 2007. Though the true cause of what burst America’s housing bubble is still debated, two of the culprits — housing finance giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac — are still going strong even though both essentially failed in 2008 and are under government control. Economists and politicians alike are now pondering whether we need Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac at all and what would happen if they were eliminated altogether.
President Obama's Enemies List...
This follows a multi-year effort by the ongoing Obama campaign to vilify specific donors to competing philosophical causes and demands that organizations release lawfully protected donor lists or donors reveal lawfully private and personal financial information.
In each of these instances, President Obama has relied on a vast grassroots network to coerce, bully, boycott and vilify individuals lawfully taking part in the political process, just as his own donors and supporters are freely allowed to engage.

President Obama’s Medicare slush fund....OUR money for HIS re-election....
Call it President Obama’s Committee for the Re-Election of the President — a political slush fund at the Health and Human Services Department.
Only this isn’t some little fund from shadowy private sources; this is taxpayer money, redirected to help Obama win another term. A massive amount of it, too — $8.3 billion. Yes, that’s billion, with a B.
Here is how it works.

Nugent Ousted from Fort Knox Concert Line-Up ......
Speech Police win AGAIN because WE LET THEM.
The decision to oust Nugent came after “recent disparaging remarks made against the commander in chief,” Ryan Brus of the Fort Knox public affairs office said.
Because the concert is taking place on a military installation, it “would be a conflict of interest since the military has the obligation to be apolitical,” he said.
Climate Alarmist Calls For Burning Down Skeptics’ Homes ........
Will you hear ANY outrage about this rant? ANY from the main stream media? No...you will hear crickets chirping. But Mitt Romney leaves his dog in a kennel on his car roof 100 years ago..and it's headlines.
Writing for Forbes Magazine, climate change alarmist Steve Zwick calls for skeptics of man-made global warming to be tracked, hunted down and have their homes burned to the ground, yet another shocking illustration of how eco-fascism is rife within the environmentalist lobby.

Sons of Liberty Then and Now ......
"Let us therefore rely upon the goodness of the Cause, and the aid of the supreme Being, in whose hands Victory is, to animate and encourage us to great and noble Actions -- The Eyes of all our Countrymen are now upon us. ... Let us therefore animate and encourage each other, and shew the whole world, that a Freeman contending for Liberty on his own ground is superior to any slavish mercenary on earth." --George Washington, 1776

DOE’s Vehicle Fleet Roughly The Size of Its 15,000 Staff, Inspector General Calls The $60M it Spends Annually on Travel a ‘Paltry Amount’ ......
This is what they think of you....of us....
During a hearing before a House Energy and Commerce subcommittee Wednesday, Department of Energy Inspector General Greg Friedman told Rep. Joe Barton (R-TX) that compared to amount of money spent by DOE contractors, the $60 million the department spends annually on travel is a “paltry sum.”

Half-Billion in Hollywood Corporate Welfare Passes In Sacramento
The bill before California legislators would extend the program of $100 million in annual tax incentives for five years, to deter runaway production through 2020.
A five-year extension to the state of California’s tax incentive program to keep movie and TV production in the state unanimously passed the state Assembly Arts and Entertainment Committee on Tuesday morning.
The bill, introduced by Assemblyman Felipe Fuentes and others, is meant to provide stability to the program which grants $100 million a year in tax credits to qualifying movies, TV shows and TV commercials shot in California. Under the current law the last incentives would be awarded in July 2013.

The Right to Bear Arms is a Human Right....
The Small Arms Treaty and the U.N.’s project on International Small Arms Control Standards seek to impose global restrictions on gun ownership that would apply to Americans and the citizens of every country that ratified the agreements. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has pledged to support the treaty, an excuse for governments everywhere to empower themselves and limit their citizens instead of the other way around.
The real GSA scandal: Job-killing big labor payoffs ....
The arrogance of these civil servants is, of course, jaw-dropping. Regional Commissioner Jeff Neely, the Paris Hilton of GSA party animals, wrote in an invitation to personal friends: "We'll get you guys a room near us, and we'll pick up the room tab. ... I know I'm bad, but as Deb and I often say, why not enjoy it while we have it and while we can. Ain't gonna last forever."
Your ongoing Obama green energy disaster of the day: Fisker Automotive ......
Another GREEN success.....oh....wait.....another GREEN disaster story.
Keep picking the "Winners"...while the rest of us who HAVE a product people want struggle day after day to survive! While we enjoy our latest Two Minutes Hate against oil speculators, here’s a little lesson in the interconnectedness of Obama’s disastrous “green energy” investments:
One of the big recent “green energy” epic failures is A123 Systems, which raked in $300 million from the “stimulus” bill, plus another $135 million in Michigan state funding. They’re currently teetering on the edge of bankruptcy, and just got slapped with a class-action lawsuit for allegedly “making false and misleading statements” about manufacturing deficiencies in their products.
Get Ready For Media Matters-Led Assault on the NRA...here we go!
Today, the Media Matters blog has decided to take on the National Rifle Association. A post by Alexander Zaitchik recounts his experiences on a bus on the way to the NRA’s annual convention in St. Louis. “The hotel minibus had barely left the airport when the guy to my left dropped the Obama assassination joke,” Zaitchik writes. “Parents who want to shield their children from presidential assassination jokes should consider vacation destinations other than NRA conventions.”
Negroes with guns .....
Whether you like her or not - this is one of her BEST.
I honestly did not know much of what she wrote here. Last night I did some homework and my head is splitting from all I found.
I'm 58 years old and I didn't get much of this in my studies back in the day in Public School. History was dates without meaning. If we weren't getting the facts back then...what aren't they getting NOW?
It wasn't til my Father - an amateur armchair historian - breathed life into the Civil War for me during my college years that I began to read and study on my own.
What we don't know is breathtaking....what they don't teach is horrifying...
We MUST take back our country. We must take back our educational system. Liberals have leapt on the shooting death of Trayvon Martin in Florida to push for the repeal of "stand your ground" laws and to demand tighter gun control. (MSNBC'S Karen Finney blamed "the same people who stymied gun regulation at every point.")
This would be like demanding more funding for the General Services Administration after seeing how its employees blew taxpayer money on a party weekend in Las Vegas.
Obama Lawyer Admits In Court Birth Certificate On White House Website Is A Forgery ......
I had this days ago...but asked our folks to check on the voracity before posting. Seems like the story is becoming a "Not Found" link on several Google sites. It does give you pause.....
Normally, I have stayed away from commenting on the controversy surrounding President Obama’s eligibility or the legitimacy of his long form birth certificate posted on the White House website; however, because this is now a matter of court record and has been captured on court house video as well, I feel compelled to present the information as yet more evidence of the massive corruption in our country’s government. I also feel compelled to post this because the mainstream media has made it pretty clear it isn’t going to – because this happened 4 days ago and I have yet to see it even mentioned.

Person of the People - Elizabeth Warren's "Granny’s" Mansion....
Good for her.....she's successful......but DO NOT try to ram your "Person of the People" rhetoric and utter hypocrisy down our throat.....
"Don't mention my mansion"....PLEASE!
If I had it I would shout from the mountaintops! Look at me! I made it! This country gave me the opportunity and DAMN if I didn't make it! Last year, U.S. Senate candidate Granny Warren agreed to be interviewed by New York magazine in her posh la-de-da Cambridge digs — but only if the magazine agreed not to mention anything about the lavishly-appointed palace.
Obama War on Working Women Began With Palin....
Why didn’t Obama keep his word? Perhaps it is because Gutman, a former registered lobbyist and big time trial lawyer, made it rain for the Democrats. According to OpenSecrets.org, Gutman and his wife, Michelle Loewinger, have contributed at least $86,150 to the Democratic Party since 1989. Gutman personally bundled at least half a million for Obama’s campaign committee and $270,000 more for his inaugural committee.
Obama Blames GSA Scandal On Bush – But For The GSA There’s Much More
Mr. "No Excuses" is at it again.....I heard someone the other day say we should take the Staples "Easy" button and put the name "Bush" on it and send them to the Administration....I don't think they could take the wear & tear of the Excuse Administration's daily run for cover....
President Barack Hussein Obama and his administration’s response to a General Services Administration (GSA) scandal over spending over $800,000 on a conference in Las Vegas, NV, in 2010, is to blame former president George Walker Bush. The Obama administration is responding to the recent report that shows a federal agency spent lavishly on a conference by trying to shift some of the blame to the Bush administration. Where have we heard that excuse before? It seems that Obama blames Bush (or somebody or something) for anything that doesn’t cast him in a favorable light.

Bibi, Peres invoke Iran threat during Yom Hashoah ceremony....
"I believe in our ability to defend ourselves," Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said during the ceremony. "People who dismiss the Iranian threat as a whim or an exaggeration have learned nothing from the Holocaust. To cower from speaking the uncomfortable truth – that today like then, there are those who want to destroy millions of Jewish people – that is to belittle the Holocaust, that is to offend its victims and that is to ignore the lessons."
How The MSM Covered Up Fast and Furious....and continues too.....
Going out to purchase Katie Pavlich's new book about Fast & Furious today. Bill O'Reilly doesn't think this debacle will get any traction. It won't unless WE give it the traction it needs. Pass this on and on and on!!!!
When the Obama administration saw Attkinson’s report, they reacted with utter fury. Officials from the administration screamed at her; as Pavlich reports, Justice Department communications director Tracy Schmaler called her up to yell at her. White House spokesman Eric Schultz “reportedly directed a barrage of expletives toward her.” Attkinson said that the White House and Justice Department labeled her “not reasonable” – as opposed to other press outlets.

Ted Nugent fires back at Secret Service probe...
Again...I - WE - always want our Secret Service vigilant to the extreme in protecting our President...
However..if this is so...then why hasn't there been a public scrutiny of Farrakhan saying "People will kill their leaders in a couple of days" or the Black Panthers conference call - espousing "Blood in the Streets...do you feel me?"...
Apparently...the only thing our Administration "Feels" is political opportunity.
Protect our President - from ALL who threaten violence.
Protect our President.....not for political gain...but to protect the leader of the Free World, whether you agree with him or not. Rock legend Ted Nugent is firing back at reports the U.S. Secret Service is targeting him for a harshly critical speech of the Obama administration he delivered at the National Rifle Association over the weekend.
The longtime advocate for gun rights compared President Obama and the Democrats to an unwanted animal visiting someone’s home.

Mandatory ‘Big Brother’ Black Boxes In All New Cars From 2015.......
Every day more and more of our RIGHTS as individuals under the Constitution are just evaporating!
Although the text of legislation states that such data would remain the property of the owner of the vehicle, the government would have the power to access it in a number of circumstances, including by court order, if the owner consents to make it available, and pursuant to an investigation or inspection conducted by the Secretary of Transportation.
Given the innumerable examples of both government and industry illegally using supposedly privacy-protected information to spy on individuals, this represents the slippery slope to total Big Brother surveillance of every American’s transport habits and location data.

NY law would identify buildings with smokers....
What would be "next" if this is allowed...?...what other "behavior" would Bloomberg find "offensive" enough to be identified? Sounds strikingly similar to a certain country just before WWII...
Landlords of buildings with three or more units would have to inform prospective tenants and purchasers whether smoking was allowed in apartments and on balconies, as well as in common outdoor areas like rooftops.
Bloomberg said this would give potential renters the chance to choose a smoke-free environment, free from wafts of cigarette smoke from other apartments.
Nugent says he'll meet with Secret Service over Obama remarks .......
I have no problem with them talking to Ted or anyone and clarifying intent...however....when did they go interview Louis Farrakhan and The Black Panthers for their "inflammatory" remarks over the past few weeks...???? Hummmmmmm????
Rocker Ted Nugent said Wednesday he is scheduled to talk with the Secret Service following controversial remarks he made about President Obama and his administration.
The 63-year-old Nugent, who recently endorsed GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney, said during a recent National Rifle Association convention that the administration was "vile," "evil" and "America-hating."
He also said that if Obama is re-elected, “I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year."

Appeals court upholds Arizona's voter ID requirement ....awesome! Now...the REST of the US!
An appeals court upheld a requirement in a 2004 Arizona law that voters show identification before they can cast ballots, saying that there wasn't evidence that the mandate disparately affected Latinos as the challengers had alleged.
A 12-member panel of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals said in a ruling Tuesday that there was evidence Arizona has racially polarized voting and a history of discrimination against Latinos, but concluded that no proof was offered to show that the ID requirement gave Latinos fewer opportunities to vote.

Joe Kennedy the 3rd wants US to pay MORE.......
I have tried to put a solar panel on my Jeep to run the thing....no luck...
I then went down to t he beach and shoved algae into the gas tank......uh....no luck...a few star fish...no energy...
Someone who is a Trust Fund baby ...( I think that is fine! ) is trying to tell me after working an average of 70-80 hours a week and not getting paid....to pay "more"....
Tell ya what - why don't you take all the damn Kennedy HOT AIR - truly an never ending viable alternative energy source - and use THAT as fuel?! I bet it would light the Northeast for years........... you guys LOVE to hear yourselves pontificate to the great unwashed.....As gas prices continue to soar around the country, Joe Kennedy III, the Democratic candidate for Rep. Barney Frank’s seat, wrote an online letter to supporters calling for an end to “cheap oil.”
“Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama — they’ve all talked about the same thing: the need to wean ourselves off our debilitating dependence on foreign oil,” Kennedy wrote.
“The cycle that allows cheap oil to trump tough choices has to stop,” he continued. “Forty years is enough.”
Did Nebraska Sen. Ben Nelson and Warren Buffett Help Obama Kill Keystone Pipeline to Benefit Burlington Northern Railroad?.....
The move has also stirred controversy about the president’s real intentions concerning job creation and reducing pain at the pump for everyday Americans. But could there be a more sinister reason behind denying the pipeline’s requisite permits — namely, to benefit billionaire Obama-supporter Warren Buffett?
The evidence does seem to be mounting.
